Two Chicago Public School Teachers Help Two African Schools!
SwaziKids International, formerly known as Project Rainbow, was initiated by two Chicago Public Schools teachers whom were inspired to make a difference during their trip to southern Africa. They recognized a clear opportunity to assist children who could not afford their school tuition, supplies and uniforms.
For three years, both teachers learned more about the issues, built a network of contacts in Swaziland and the U.S. and started raising money to sponsor three children to attend school. They enlisted the help of their preschool students and their families, as well as, their school community to raise over $10,000.
In 2008, they were awarded a Chicago Foundation for Education / Fund for Teachers travel grant that enabled them to travel back to southern Africa a second time. This subsequent trip afforded them the ability to hand-deliver school supplies, children's books and classroom furnishings to two schools. It is at this point that they realized there were many other children who needed help and decided to launch a non-for-profit to expand their efforts.
SwaziKids International was officially launched in November of 2009 and now sponsors the education of children in Swazi in partnership with a Swazi school. This collaboration enabled SwaziKids International to focus its efforts on developing a school with students that consistently attend and to supply the school with needed educational resources and further professional development.

Generally Chat is classified as junk food which has almost nil nutrients and is just for tantalizing taste buds; at best these are reckoned as appetizers. Though this concept may be correct to a large extent but not completely, Fruit Chat is one dish which is a form of Chat but rich in nutrients and low on fat which also enhances appetite and is toothsome. The secret of Chat's unique taste lies in the use of spices which are quite a few in numbers and are used in definite quantities and combination in different dishes to provide smacking taste. To make delicious Fruit Chat select fruits which are sweet in taste and acidic in nature, one can choose any set of fruits depending on the season and taste habits. Assemble fresh and sweet fruits or select those mentioned in recipe below to make nutritious and delicious dish.
Take 1 cup Papaya, three-forth cup of Pineapple cubes, 1 cup Apple cubes, half cup Banana cubes, 4-5 Indian Gooseberry chopped in four parts, one-forth cup of black and green Grapes, 1 cup of Cucumber peeled and diced, 10-12 Cherries cut into two, half cup Tapioca peeled and diced, 1 tablespoon coarsely grounded Coriander and 2 green Chilies finely chopped. For seasoning prepare Green Chutney, it is very simple, take a cup of fresh Coriander leaves and a cup of fresh Mint leaves. Take one whole Green chili and add Black salt and Salt to taste. Add some water and grind all the ingredients together to form a consistent paste. Similarly take Dates and Tamarind and grind them to make Chutney sweet in taste, some like it with a hint of Salt or Black salt.
Take one-forth teaspoon of Black salt, half teaspoon roasted Cumin seeds, 1 teaspoon of Chat Masala, one-forth teaspoon Chili powder, half Tablespoon Lemon Juice and Salt to taste. Add all the fruits in a big bowl and add a tablespoon of Green Chutney and 1 tablespoon of Sweet Chutney. Add other spices and juices and toss all the ingredients. Do not stir as crushed fruits will not taste good. When all the fruits are well covered with spices and juice serve it as a healthy and tasty brunch. It can also be served after meals as food balancer or before meals as an appetizer. If seasonal fruits are used in this dish it gives you top class nourishment and also work as easy way to put some fresh fruits inside the system of your kids.

Damien Conover: In the current market dynamics, we've got a lot of sectors that we think are overvalued, but within this dynamic we also are looking at the healthcare sector, most notably, the pharmaceutical industry, as being undervalued.
We think a lot of reasons are for increased concern about drug pricing reforms around drugs prices in the United States. We think these concerns are overblown. While there could be some new additional regulation around drug prices, we don't think there's going to be a major shift there.
One of the ways the pharmaceutical firms are fighting back against potential pricing reforms is to really fight for new innovation. A couple of firms we like that are really well-positioned in innovation are Pfizer and Eli Lilly. First, with Pfizer. They are really pushing deep into oncology. That should be a good growth engine for them going forward.
Secondly, with Eli Lilly, they are very well-positioned in immunology. Areas like psoriasis, areas where the body is not taking on the disease in the right way, this firm is to bring in the next generation of drugs and they have very strong pricing power and will likely get strong market penetration.
Within this context of drug pricing reforms, we really like firms that have innovation. Eli Lilly and Pfizer are well-positioned, both from valuation and strategically, to bring out these drugs that should have strong pricing power.

Dear Family,
Sounds Like a fun time at church. I feel that the district is progressing really well. No one is struggling. So you don't need to keep saying throw your arm around a missionary. We are all helping each other out and supporting each other.
So the next big batch of missionaries comes in on June 26. I think about 56 missionaries come in. That would put our branch up close to 150 missionaries. But just this last Sunday they split the Mandarin branch. So now there are two Mandarin branches. Branc 39 and Branch 25. My district got put into Branch 25. So I have all new Branch President and Counselors now. President Baker (same from last year), Brother Frishnekt (same from last year), and Brother Teng (now the 2nd counselor, was 3rd last year and called in when I was in the MTC last year) are over the Branch 39. Brother Averett (had been 3rd counselor in Branch 39 when I came in this year is now 2nd counselor in Branch 25) is a really nice guy. President Runn and the first counselor are both new to serving in the Mandarin and actually don't know any Mandarin. Both had served in German branches here at the MTC.
I am so thankful for the packages. Thanks! :) Maybe send a few more letters or dear elders throughout the week though. I thought you hadn't read my email or forgot about me until I got your dear elder friday night (also I have an hour for email not 30 minutes, so its not a big issue). Also where was the fire on Thursday night. We got all the smoke blown down here to provo. So a few things that I would like: Send my Taiwan flag (we need some things to make our room more lively), also keep eyes out for good hotwheels cars (like actuall real world model cars) and maybe send me a few so I can put them up on my desk or have them around to just feel more comfortable (my little snowtrooper lego man now holds my dorm room key), of course send more Arizonas (they were so good, I have 5 left right now and I gave one to Sister Anderson because she loves them just as much as I do and had never tried the Cherry Lime Rickey), then also you will need to get me a new English Scriptures (black leather, mid size, gold sheets, with no button clasp. I haven't seen them since Wednesday morning from personal study. I had left my scriptures sitting with my PMG on top of my desk chair in our classroom. My desk sits right by the door and we usually leave our class door open. Our class is also right by where a decent amount of foot traffic passes for the hall. All of us leave basically all our study material in the class because it is no big deal since its the MTC. Later Wedneday night when I needed my scriptures I went to grab them under my desk and realized they weren't there. I have looked in the lost and found of each floor in my class building each day and still haven't found them. I have looked in the lost and found by the laundry room. I have looked in the lost and found by the mail room. These are all the lost and founds. If they were to show up at the mail room lost and found or the front desk they would notify me because my name is on them. But they still haven't been found. My teachers know about it. The zone leaders know about it and have spread the word. I have looked through all the chinese classrooms and about half of the korean classrooms in the adjacent hall. Still haven't found them. I have prayed everyday that the Lord would allow them to be found. Also in companionship prayer we have prayed about them. Sill haven't been found. So I don't know what else to do but to now say I need new scriptures. Which I really don't want to do since I have had those other sets from freshman year of HS and have marked a lot in them and have written a lot in them. All the teachers say this is really peculiar and weird. So I don't know).
Spiritual moment would have to be either being at the temple in the celestial room or when we did TRC teaching on Saturday teaching a member who is from Taiwan studying at BYU, studying in English.
The district loves me. They sometimes call me District Leader Dayley. We all get along really well.
Best thing ate is probably the wraps you can make. Worst thing is the chicken cordon bleu.
Different this time is the amount of missionaries there are. There are so many! :/
So many things in service that go both ways of receiving and giving to count.
Love you,
Elder Dayley
P.S. So I will try to answer quick your questions. Actually running out of time now. Ready dad's email first and forgot to wish happy Father's Day. So Dad, Happy Father's Day!
1) So how come the different name, Yi Zhanglao ---> Dai Zhanglao?
They are more trying to standardize last names I think. So with anyon from now on who has a similar name will get dai.
2) How's the food at the MTC? What do you like best?
Food's ok. Don't like it a whole lot, but just push through it.
3) Have you been able to do any exercising yet and keep up those bulging biceps? ;-)
I have been trying to do at least one a week weight lifting. Since being here I have lost 3 pounds, but its all muscle weight that I have lost.
4) Some of the moms of elders/sisters in your district write on the MM site. They all express good comments. It's been nice to hear others perspectives though and what their sons or daughters have been experiencing the last few weeks. I've come across Sis Peng's blog and it's been fun to read excerpts from her letters. So my question is… how is she sending photos from the MTC? If you have time, I'd love to see a photo of your companion and/or district.
Yeah next week I will send pictures. You have to have a sd card reader and Elder Jenkins has one. So I am going to borrow it next week.
5) Did the Zonas survive the transport to the MTC last Monday? How about the Pringles last Friday?
The Zonas survived and I would like more. Elder Turner and I now use the insulated bag as a freezer in one of our drawyers. We get ice when at gym and then put that in the insulated bag in a zip lock bag and then put our drinks in there.
6) How's it going with learning the Chinese grammar during your language study time? About how much time do you spend each day studying the Chinese language – grammar, vocab, phrases, etc.?
I probably do around 6 to 8 hours of studying the language each day.
7) Are you teaching the lessons with your investigators in Chinese?
Since the first Friday when we taught the first time we teach in Chinese. We never teach investigators in English. Its always in Chinese.
8) How was your Sunday? Your devotional?
It was good. Keep your eyes open next Sunday.
9) Any new missionaries this past week to add to your branch? Or is it still forthcoming?
New missionaries are coming in next week.
10) Still a foursome in your room or did you get 2 new roommates?
And yep still a foursome in our room. But we are going to work out next Sunday night to have Elder Teerklink and Elder Oberg to sleep over in our room since it will be P-day the next day.

Product Description
The Celestial Music of the Soul package includes: Galactic Soul, Soul Dream, Soul Joy, Soul Heart Merge and Soul Mind Fusion.
Wonderful News! Galactic Soul which is in The Celestial Music of the Soul series music package just won Best New Age Contemporary in The 2016 New Mexico Music Awards. I am so honored and deeply grateful to receive this prestigious award. Also in the 5 MP3/CD package is Soul Joy which was nominated for a NMMA Award in 2015.
MP3 $97, CDs $137
This is the music from the Galactic Soul Livestream 1-10-15. The music is exquisitely expansive and soars gracefully in resonance with your multi-dimensional self. Engaging melodies blend effortlessly with rich strings, angelic choirs grand piano and gorgeous textures which weave a sonic tapestry of grace and love. Every time you listen you experience the music more and more deeply. Majestic and profound.
Even identification as a body mind or soul has to dissolve into the Field of Potential that exists prior to all form. Let this music guide you into the Infinite Silence that birthed all individual manifestations. Trust in your Inspired Heart to lead you through all circumstance. Your magnificence is truly nectar divine.
Can you drop all facades and BE? Can you stay plugged into the Infinite ALL THAT IS and maintain flow in all circumstances? Here is an invitation to move your body to the rhythm of Soul Joy as you relinquish the reins to your SOUL-HEART-DIVINE MIND. Do you have the courage to allow pure joy to transmute all your illusions? Can you take your finger out of the dyke and let tears of joy flow and waves of laughter crash on your soul filled shores? Feel your passion!!!
Soul Joy was nominated for Best New Age Contemporary for the 2015 New Mexico Music Awards.
Our mind is an amazing tool for navigating everyday life but when your Higher-Mind presence and your soul are fused, your Heart and Higher-Self become your primary source of guidance. A mind free of conditioning operates at a higher frequency and does not battle the Heart, but bows down to it. Knowledge becomes wisdom and wisdom smiles upon all doubts and brings you into the fold of LOVE. All the mental constructs of personality and identification become dismantled and re-arranged in the clarity of an awakened mind. Feel how your flow in life increases and becomes easier. It is much easier to follow the flow of your resonance than to be in constant resistance and fear. Thank your everyday mind for all it does as you allow the space for your soul and mind to dissolve into each other and then perform as Divine Mind. What an amazing dialogue will ensue between Heart and Divine Mind. You will be in awe and devotion to your true-nature.
Be in a space of reverence when you are listening and allow yourself to be totally present.
When your soul and heart are aligned in the truth of your INFINITE NATURE, then LOVE is your navigator. Fear is seen through with crystal clarity and your unique expression is allowed to shine through. Everyday life is filled with small and large miracles and you can stand in your true power amidst absolute vulnerability. Your higher-self can communicate with ease as your Soul-Heart dialogue reaches a deeper richness. Your Heart informs your Soul that all perceived wounded-ness and illusions of lack have run their course. Unconditional Love is all there is. Can you put out the call to all of those parts of your soul to come home to the heart? Access to your Akashic records becomes easier allowing you to bring forth those positive strengths from previous embodiments.

Simple Vanilla Cake
Prep Time 10 minutes Cook Time 40 minutes
When a cake is this easy to make and so good, who needs a cake mix? This vanilla-scented cake is simply irresistible slathered with your favorite frosting or layered in whipped cream and strawberries.
What you'll need
- 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 4 eggs
- 2-1/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 350° F. Line two 9-inch round cake pans or one 9,13-inch rectangular baking pan with parchment paper. Grease the paper and the sides of the pan well.
- In a large mixing bowl, with an electric mixer, beat sugar and eggs together until slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Add flour, milk, oil, baking powder, and vanilla and beat for another minute, just until the batter is smooth and creamy. Don't over beat. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan(s).
- Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until the tops are golden and a toothpick poked into the center of the layer comes out clean. (A single rectangular pan will take longer to bake than two round ones.) Loosen the sides of the cake from the pan with a thin knife, then turn out onto a rack and peel off the paper. Let cool completely before covering with frosting, if desired.

The obligatory Christmas Cricket post
Well, it's Christmas again and things are a little quiet online.
Offline, Pup may or may not play in the second test against Sri Lanka, due to an injury, and is thus considering giving our opponents a sporting chance by installing Twatto as captain; and Shane Warne has annoyed me. Again.
On a postive note, Cricket Australia have acknowledged the potentially harmful effects of too much T20 by banning the test side from playing in the Big Bash League. Temporarily, of course. There's still money to be made from Mitch Starc after all.
Sachin Tendulkar has finally [partially] retired. I have been prepared for the day of his retirement for some time. The survival plan involves an abundance of canned goods and avoidance of Twitter for several days. In the event, however, I was duped. Sachin has only retired from ODIs (or ODI's, depending on how stupid the people you follow on Twitter are), so I thought I would be safe. I was, of course, wrong. It was worse than I expected, because not only are people virtually crying but there has been an explosion of misused apostrophes.
These people should be banned from social networking, sterilised and forced to read Lynne Truss over and over and over again.
Without further ado, I shall wish you all a Merry Christmas and hope to come back and start afresh with the Boxing Day test. I know I should be doing this on Christmas eve, but I plan to go watch A Muppet Christmas Carol tomorrow. I like the Muppets more than I like you lot.
Have a good one.

Everybody looks for a job that compensates enough for someone to provide not just for himself but also for his own family. But having as competitive market as we have now, finding such high paying job is within reach especially if you are a goal driven person and have the ability and skills needed for a particular position. This was the case for the past years now and deemed to be the case for the next years also. That is why, people around the world are investing a lot in education with the hope that in the end, it will be one of their keys to achieve success in career and everything follows. Furthermore, the quality of living one might achieve does not just depend on the person itself but also with the help of the environment especially the government of a particular town or state through providing good quality services as well as opportunities for future growth.
In relation to the above mentioned facts, it is important to note that, people as well as government should work hand in hand so that it will both achieve respective ends. This is the case in the small town of Waimalu wherein both are extending efforts to improve the quality of living within the town as of the recent Hawaii news. One of which is to increase the employment rate within the town. As of the latest Hawaii news, Waimalu has been achieving an income per capita of around 20.3%, greater than the Hawaii average at 25.4%. This was further elaborated by the Waimalu news when it noted that the poverty level in the town is less than the Hawaii average at 41.3% which means that people are getting more because most of them have jobs enough to suffice their respective needs. Furthermore, Waimalu news also indicated that the employment status within the area is very high, with almost 60% to 80% of their people where employed in the labor force, while less than 20% were in the military and unfortunately, unemployed. Upon closer inspection, the news tackled that around 80% of the males work for more or less 35 hours per week while around 60% of females work for the same duration per week.
Through this it can be manifested that people in Waimalu HI are having a good quality life. Thus, if you want to live near the Waimalu shopping center, study hard and work hard later. Waimalu living is something that people should aim to. In order to introduce such attitudes towards success, people conduct Waimalu events that cater our different secrets as well as the efforts put by our local government. And also, Waimalu events are being done to introduce the culture and beautiful spots of our small town in Hawaii.

The best way to ensure that you recover all lost data is by using a special software for XP data recovery. This software can be used to recover data, like deleted files, restore partitions that were deleted or reformatted and restore corrupted data.
The XP data recovery software can be purchased in most electronic stores or can be downloaded online. When purchasing online, it is advisable to make sure that you purchase from a reputable site. This is very important or you could create more problems for yourself. Downloading from some sites will infect your computer with a virus.

I decided on this style for my bridesmaids dresses and ordered 1 to see what it was like. It was even better than I could have imagined! The dress was true to size and the neckline and sleeves are so gorgeous. I am actually ordering 4 of these in 4 different colors. I was so happy to find this dress and style as I was not happy with any of the dresses from the "chain" bridal stores. It was not too expensive and was super great quality. Here is the pic of my bridesmaid in the color Pool.

On a side note, Game Over may have some rather significant errors.
Game Over is also riddled with factual errors that show Sheff either wasn't too much concerned with detail, or how much he was at the mercy of his interviewees. He attest's Nintendo's R&D teams the achievement of developing carts with 8 megabytes of memory for the original Famicom (an amount barely reached with the largest SNES cartridges), introduces Enix, a mildly successful publisher of home computer games before their first Famicom game made the market, as "a start-up formed specifically to create Nintendo games," writes about the 1984-released The Black Onyx that its creator "Rogers sold 100,000 copies in 1980."
I haven't heard anything bad about Pheonix.

Found this today:
from Curt Vendel (email@example.com)
(Atari Historical Society's virtual Atari museum):
The Atari Panther was going to be Atari's original video game console system before the Jaguar, it was a kludged combination of the Atari ST and the Transputer Blossom video card.
This sounds like the older, inaccurate information Curt had from one interview. I can't confirm that; the Wayback Machine no longer has an archive of The Atari History Museum. While it's not accurate for the Panther, could it be for the Mirai? It sounds a lot like what's already suspected. Could the interviewee have gotten the two mixed up?
(I'd actually say "kludged" is too harsh a word; combining and extending well-supported technology doesn't sound too bad.)

7 yrs on, EOW starts probe against 103 CMOs, CMSs
It took the economic offences wing (EOW) seven years to start a probe against the chief medical officers (CMOs) and chief medical superintendents (CMSs) involved in the multi-crore medicine procurement scam.india Updated: Sep 15, 2012 13:46 IST
It took the economic offences wing (EOW) seven years to start a probe against the chief medical officers (CMOs) and chief medical superintendents (CMSs) involved in the multi-crore medicine procurement scam.
It was in 2005 when the state government had recommended a probe against 103 CMOs and CMSs involved in the scam. The medical officers posted in various districts had embezzled government money. The state government decided to hand over the probe to the EOW but no action followed against the culprits as the officers in the EOW put the probe order in cold storage. On Wednesday, the additional charge of the EOW was given to DG, cooperative cell, Subrat Tripathi. Talking to HT on Friday, Tripathi said, "I have directed the investigation officer to submit the progress report on the probe against the CMOs and CMSs. I was surprised to find that no notices have been served to the culprits in the last seven years. I directed the investigation officer to start probe against the culprits immediately."
The irregularities in the purchase of drugs by the CMOs were detected in a few districts in 2005. Later, the state government ordered an inquiry to nab the culprits. The then director health Ram Babu was appointed the inquiry officer.
During the investigation conducted by Babu, it was found that the CMOs of Jhansi, Kanpur Nagar, Farrukhabad, Etawah, Moradabad, Meerut, Etah, Hardoi, Rae Bareli, Barabanki had purchased drug worth crore in a clear cut violation of the rate contract.
The health and family welfare department sent teams to other districts to probe into the medicine procurement. It was found that medicine procurement racket was running in other districts too. Later, the state government handed over the investigation to the EOW. During the investigation, the officials found that the CMOs posted in these districts had purchased drugs from various pharmaceutical companies in 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 without rate contract. Subsequently, an inquiry was ordered against 103 CMOs and CMSs.
The health and family welfare department sent several reminders to the EOW to get details of the investigation report but in vain. A health and family welfare department officer said, "Had the EOW started probe against the CMOs and the CMSs indulged in corruption, it might have checked the multi-crore national rural health mission (NRHM) scam". Again the CMOs posted in 75 districts siphoned off funds. The Central Bureau of Investigation has registered FIR against 100 CMOs.

It feels like yesterday that I posted the last colour challenge and here I am again with another one. This week the colour challenge at The Outlawz is inviting you to play tic-tac-toe. It was my turn to choose the theme and colours and this is what I decided on.
It really is quite simple..just choose a row, down, across or diagonal, and if there is a word in your row, then you need to add that item as your twist. You are welcome to add any other embellishments as well. Just tell us which row you are using.
I decided to use the diagonal row top left to bottom right, and the twist is to add ribbon.
We are sponsored by Nicecrane Designs for this month, and the DT have used images from different sets. Do come and have a look at the lovely projects.
For my card I have used an image from The Flower Children set and you can find it HERE.
I used yellow cardstock and matted a blue flowery paper onto that. Then cut out and embossed another piece of yellow and onto that I mounted the image with foam pads.
The image was coloured with Distress inkpads and cut out with an oval die. I rather like this little flower child.
The ribbon is my twist and added a bow, also some pearls.
The sentiment is a Hero Arts stamp.

'Beautiful and moving poetry for the real world' Jeanette Winterson, Guardian
'Wonderful . . . a poet alert to every sound and shape of language' Sunday Telegraph
The Bees is Carol Ann Duffy's first collection of poems as Poet Laureate. In it she uses her full poetic range: there are drinking songs, love poems, poems of political anger; there are elegies, too, for beloved friends, and – most movingly – the poet's own mother.
Woven and weaving through the book is its presiding spirit: the bee. Sometimes the bee is Duffy's subject, sometimes it strays into the poem, or hovers at its edge. In the end, Duffy's point is clear: the bee symbolizes what we have left of grace in the world, and what is most precious and necessary for us to protect. The Bees, at once intimate and public, is a work of great power from one of our most cherished poets.
'Swooningly glorious' The Times
'Indisputably her best volume' Sunday Times
'Duffy is magnificent, grounded, heartfelt, dedicated to the notion that poetry can give us the music of life itself' Scotsman
Carol Ann Duffy lives in Manchester, where she is Professor and Creative Director of the Writing School at Manchester Metropolitan University. She has written for both children and adults, and her poetry has received many awards, including the Signal Prize for Children's Verse, the Whitbread, Forward and T. S. Eliot Prizes, the PEN Pinter Prize, and the Lannan and E. M. Forster Prize in America. She was appointed Poet Laureate in 2009. Her collections include The World's Wife, Love Poems and Rapture. The Bees won the Costa Poetry Award.

Hailed as the next step in mobile computing technology, a pointless fashion faux pas data miner, and everything in between, Google Glass seeks to change the way you experience life. When you put on this new piece of technology, you can pull up directions, take photos and video, send and view messages, and do much more. In the professional arena, the product is already being explored for use by soldiers, doctors, security personnel, pilots, and others who need hands-free technology to perform their jobs well. One area in particular that will be affected is ecommerce. With a portable computer on your face, you can do a lot for your online shopping sprees. See something you want to buy? Need some price comparisons? Looking for product suggestions? Google Glass should be able to help you out with these sorts of tasks. Here's how Google Glass can impact the world of ecommerce.
What is Google Glass?
Shaped as a pair of glasses, Google Glass is a computer that uses an optical head-mounted display to show you information. Think of it as a smartphone that does not require you to use your hands. You issue verbal commands to the device, and it provides you with the information or functionality you need. The initial prototype came out in 2011, and since then, the product was made available to select early adopters earlier in 2013. The official release date is probably within a year, but tech companies are already developing third-party apps for use with the headpiece, some of which pertain to ecommerce platforms.
First-Party Ecommerce Functionality
One of the major features with Google Glass for shopping is the ability to purchase items through the product. Say that you go into a store and see something you like. All you need to do is scan the item's bar or QR code through Google Glass, and you can then pull up a number of details for it. For instance, you can compare pricing between online stores, take a look at customer reviews, and ultimately make a checkout. If you see a price that you like in an online store but want to purchase it locally, Google Glass can display the location of the item on a map if the online store has a brick and mortar presence. You literally have access to the entire Internet in front of your face. Again, it's just like a smartphone without the use of your hands.
Now say that you've found a great product that falls in your target price range. You want to check your shopping cart out securely, but how do you pay for it? Google has already planned to integrate Google Wallet with Google Glass as the main way to handle online purchases. For those who are unfamiliar, Google Wallet acts as a free online payment processing solution that supports all major credit and debit cards. You can also attach a banking account to it, send money to friends and family, and have it maintain your loyalty programs and gift cards. Many online and brick and mortar merchants already use Google Wallet, so it makes sense for you to setup this payment option if you want to attract Google Glass shoppers.
It is also worth noting that because it is so easy to share visual content and make a checkout through Google Glass, shoppers may be more inclined to make impulse purchases. For instance, say that you are on the fence for purchasing an item. You want to consult your significant other or friends before making a financial commitment. Normally, you'd have to pull out your phone, take a picture, log into a website, and post the content. With Google Glass, the product streamlines sharing by reducing it to a few voice commands and taps. Some people even hypothesize that you will be able to stream your shopping in real-time in front of an Internet audience. For checkout, the process is again simplified to a few taps and voice commands. Theoretically, the consumer has less time for second thoughts and other forms of interruptions, both of which are responsible for a large number of abandoned carts. Because of the path of less(er) resistance, a lot more sales are going to happen.
Third-Party Apps for Ecommerce
Despite the fact that Google Glass has yet to launch, third-party developers are already thinking of innovative apps and features for use by shoppers. In fact, some companies have already created full ecommerce apps to help with shopping.
The app Fancy helps you find products that appeal to you through crowd-curated content. With your mobile phone, you can take a photo of an item you want and upload it into your Fancy account. Whenever an important development happens to an object in your Fancy portfolio, the company sends you a notification. Additionally, you have the option of going through the Fancy catalog and purchasing goods directly from ecommerce stores.
Fancy for Google Glass takes things to the next level by offering a color search service. Say that you're staring at your painted apartment wall and all of a sudden decide that you need a decoration to occupy some space. Using Fancy for Google Glass, you can take a picture of your wall and browse through products that aesthetically mesh with your room's colors. Each tap of the touchpad delivers a new item, and you can view details such as item description and price. Once you decide on a purchase, you can use the app for checkout.
Another big app that is making its way around the tech world is Glashion. This program debuted at the TechCrunch Disrupt SF 2013 hackathon and helps you find and purchase fashion items you see on random pedestrians. All you need to do is install the app onto your Google Glass set, take a photo of something you want, and browse through the results pages until you settle on an accurate match. From there, you can either have the app send you an email link for online checkout or pull up a map of local brick and mortar stores that carry the product.
Beyond these announced apps, there have not been many developments (so far) made in the third-party ecommerce app arena. Google has plans to launch a Google Glass app store (called Glassware), allowing people from all backgrounds a chance to make the most out of the head computer. You yourself can create an app for your ecommerce store. Imagine making something that automatically displays your online price when you scan a bar code. You can even add neat features by showing the amount of money saved through your store or offering makeshift specials. If you have a good idea, you can build it and edge yourself in front of your competitors.
Google Glass aims to be the latest in disruptive technology by changing how consumers shop. Online price comparison, peer consulting, and checkout will be streamlined, thereby lowering the rate at which shopping carts are abandoned. The product is still in its testing phases though, so the full extent to which it will be transformative remains to be seen. Each new feature announced promises potential for shoppers and store owners alike, and it's never too early to develop an idea for integrating the product with your ecommerce store.

I've been an entrepreneur and business investor/owner since 1993. I'm also a father of four and uncle to several young people ranging from pre-teen to young adult (late 20s). I know how important just a handful of guidelines have been (still are) in my life, career and business. All are relatively simple but often not easy to follow or execute when you're young. So, I wrote a story for my children, nieces and nephews that they might relate to that would teach them a couple of oh, so important principles for success. I think the story has a message everyone can take away as an important lesson.
A Coming of Age Story (with excellent advice for adults, too).
Josh has a crush on a pretty, popular–and taller– upper-class girl at his high school. He wants to ask her out but is afraid and his father and mother give him the best advice any kid could receive. The type of advice that has a lifelong impact.
Here's what some of my early readers had to say about this 3,024-word short story:
"A story about good parents who give the right advice, and how a smart kid can learn the right lessons from that advice. This is a Must Read." -Jyoti Q Dahiya
"This has touched my heart." -Vickie Farnsley
"Great story!" -Dirk Hooper
"That was such a beautiful story, brings back sweet memories." -Paul Wing,
"Love it!" -BF
"Wow, that was amazing!!" -Queen Rae
"You have such mad talent! ♥ this!" -Cindy Corhn
"Great writing, Dennis. You are enormously talented. From a man who hates to admit any romantic inclinations, I want a do-over for high school." -Gerald Shackelford
"Truly enjoyed it, Dennis." -Denis Labelle
"Great read Dennis! 'And chances are you will fail—at many things—if you're trying to live a life of purpose and meaning to yourself.' That's some very sage advice." -GP
"I love this story!" -Jenn R
"A beautiful story." -Rebecca Fowler
"This left me grinning from ear to ear." -Dawn Hart Jackson
"Young love… a great story! Loved it!" –Susan Gabriel
From Dennis:
One day I saw a picture of a statue in a park: of a male figure (smaller) reaching out to a female figure (taller) and a thought—a premise— struck me. So, I wrote a story that most of us can relate to, to illustrate a point about how our fears, our uncertainty, can hold us back… can stall or prevent success.
I have four daughters and one of my wishes for them is that they find a partner in life that is as thoughtful, considerate and brave as Josh in this story. And as I wrote it, I wanted to make a point (for them since they're usually some of the earliest readers of all I write), that you get nowhere in life if you don't take an active role in making it—life—become what you want. Now, I'm 58 (as of this writing). I know all about questions and regrets as you age and reflect on life. When there's something you want(ed), or an opportunity before you… and you don't (didn't) do what you need(ed) to do to get it or don't (didn't) give it a shot. I want my daughters (and other readers) to know of something easy to lose sight of in the 'busyness' of life… that lives are formed by choices. By what's done… or not done.
Josh's last bit of advice to his friend Ben holds true. And sometimes that dance partner is yourself. Swing out even if no one else is on the floor… and here I'll quote a song by Lee Ann Womack. Sing it with me:
"I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance. Never settle for the path of least resistance. Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin'… I hope you dance…"

Kovalam, one of India's internationally renowned beaches, in the God's own country, Kerala. A favorite haunt of Europeans since the 1930s, Kovalam consists of three successive crescent beaches. Kovalam, a sheltered natural bay, the azure blue waters and the sumptuous spread of green palm groves make it a tropical paradise of sorts. Sun bathing, Swimming, Ayurvedic Rejuvenation, Yoga and meditation, Herbal body toning massages, Special Cultural Programmes, Catamaran cruising; the possibilities are many. The Kovalam lighthouse beach is where most visitors spend their time. Along the 600 kilometre length of the Kerala coast, there are many sandy beaches, rocky promontories and coconut palms. The fishing village of Kovalam lies 10 kilometres south of Thiruvananthapuram, the capital of Kerala. Kovalam is the only beach resort of Kerala, and is very popular with the Indian as well as international tourists. Industry is relatively small scale in this area and the prices low. The beach is just a few minutes walk from the village.
Kovalam consists of three successive small crescent beaches; the southern most known as Lighthouse Beach, is where most of the visitors spend their time. The beach is bordered with low cost lodging houses, and restaurants which offer adequate facilities, at affordable tariffs - ideal for a long stay. The light house on the promontory at the southern end of the beach, offers a spectacular view across to the Vizhinjam mosque. Photography is prohibited here. The middle beach, overlooked from a rocky headland by the five star Ashok Radisson resort, functions each morning as a base for local fishers. North of Ashok, is the third beach which is very little affected by the changing times. It is dotted with a few rudimentary wooden fishing vessels.
Swimming on the beaches is not always safe, as the undertow can be very strong, therefore it is essential to follow the warnings of the safety flags. However, days can be spent here just lolling around on the sands or retreating under the awnings of the beach cafes. There are numerous craft and carpet shops (usually of Tibetan, Kashmiri and Rajasthani origin), clothing stores and general stores, yoga schools, travel agents and massage parlours lining the beach.

French government plans CNES audit
Posted: Sun, Oct 27, 2002, 11:03 AM ET (1603 GMT)
The French government plans to create a commission to examine the CNES space agency after many of the agency's employees called for the resignation of its president. Space News reported Friday that Claudie Haignere, a former astronaut who is now the French minister of research, has established a commission to study the current status of CNES and report back to her in two months. The move comes after a gathering of up to 500 employees, about 20 percent of CNES's workforce, gave CNES president Alain Bensoussan an overwhelming vote of no confidence. The employees said that Bensoussan's current strategy is "leading to the downfall of CNES." The French government recently decided to cut CNES's budget for 2003, putting into question the agency's plans for future Mars missions.

Brisbane's controversial on-again, off-again West Village project is back on the table but Deputy Premier Jackie Trad is facing a local backlash over the looming approval.
Ms Trad, Queensland's planning minister as well as the local South Brisbane MP, on Sunday revealed the $800,000 urban renewal project would be finalised "in the coming days".
She previously called in the development at West End - to include 1200-plus apartments, retail and commercial space in seven skyscraping towers - in September following pressure for green and community groups.
Those same groups are again upset the decade-long construction project is set to be approved this week subject to planning conditions.
Local Greens councillor Jonathan Sri labelled the proposed changes - including a doubling of green space, a slight reduction in apartments and a staggering of tower heights from eight to 22 storeys - as minor and didn't address the main concerns.
Mr Sri said residents weren't opposed to the site's development but they wanted better consultation and more affordable housing for low-income earners.
"There is no community support for 22-storey buildings on Boundary Street," he said.
The West End Community Association agreed with Mr Sri, saying residents would be disappointed and could punish Ms Trad dearly at the next state election.
"This is an issue we have been out there fighting for two years," said WECA president Erin Evans.
"It won't go away."
Ms Trad denied she was trying to placate the Greens by calling in the project and overseeing changes which include reducing site cover from 95 per cent to 80 per cent, leading to taller towers.
Among the proposed changes are for an "innovative" electric vehicle charging station as well as the retention and re-use of two heritage buildings.
"This is a once-in-a-generation urban development," said Ms Trad, adding it would create thousands of jobs.
Opposition Leader Tim Nicholls was quick to respond by saying those jobs had needlessly been put on hold for three months while she had given "false hope" to the West End community.
He denied it was a good result for the development industry due to the uncertainty and doubt created.
"It (this) is simply a political ploy by Jackie Trad to protect her skin in the seat of South Brisbane from the greens."

Many companies know the power that hosting events can have when it comes to networking and attracting a target audience. It is a strategy that allows for creative expression and interaction with groups of people that can help grow your brand.
Why plan a company event?
Traditional strategies to gain visibility and contacts are great, but you need to mix it up sometimes and allow for a more hands-on approach. That is why events are an excellent way to get to meet individuals in the market your company works in, and to attract potential customers. Events are also a fun way to connect with people in a way you would not normally have the chance. This allows for face to face communication and a chance to learn about other's interests and concerns.
Make it count
When planning a company event, it is important to pay close attention to every detail so that you can maximize the effectiveness of your campaign. Carefully compose a list of companies and individuals you wish to attend.
If the event is public, you want to ensure that you put forth the appropriate amount of effort to advertise and get the word out. The event should have an attractive theme or contain some feature that is enticing and interesting. Giveaways and door prizes are a classic and effective way to gain interest and boost attendance. Make the prizes valuable enough to make your target audience want to win them. You also want to collect attendee information and leads. Make it a priority to assign a company representative to collect email addresses for your company to send promotional material, offers, and other helpful information.
There is quite a bit of footwork involved with company events, but it really pays off in the long run. You can choose a professional social media marketing company such as AMPLITUDE Social Marketing to handle all of your company event planning needs as well as leading your social media marketing campaign. Contact us today to find out more about how we can help you at your next event.

Hi again, I have been surfing pinterest and found some great card sketches. I used one today to make this clean and simple Valentines Day Card. Stamps are the inchies from Inkadinkadoo, papers are from Club Scrap (I am finally using all the CS paper I have hoarded for years!) and the ribbon is from Making Memories. Anyway without any further rambling from me, here it is. Oh BTW I don't have anyone to give it to LOL. I just wanted to use those stamps and make a Valentines day card. Ok, enough eh?

Masking Technique
Hi there
I made this card yesterday for a Masking technique challenge on OWSE. I stamped the butterfly (Unity Stamp), then stamped it again on scrap paper and placed it over the original stamped butterfly to allow me to then stamp the word background (SU stamp) without it getting on the butterfly. I used distress ink (wild honey) all over the white cardstock.
Thanks for looking!
Clean and Simple Card
Hi there
I just finished doing a card for a challenge on OWSE. The challenge was to make a greeting card with a Silhouette or Cameo on it. All papers are from Club Scrap. It's pretty simple, but I like how it turned out. The silhouette of the party crowd I cut with SCAL on my Pazzles. Mind you it took four passes to cut the silhouette as Club Scrap card stock is quite thick.
Couple of Cards – Spellbinders Cuckoo Die set and Matching Unity Stamp set
When I saw these sets offered on Mollys Square as a daily deal I HAD to have them. Well, I've finally gotten around to making a couple of birthday cards with them. It was a new experience for me, using stamps that go with the dies and I have to tell you that I want more sets like this now. I'm not sure what else is available. If anyone can point me to a link with the sets I would love to know 🙂
Anyway, here are the two cards I made. Both the same except different colours. I hope you like them.
Oh the Happy Birthday stamp is not part of the Unity Stamp set. It was from another set that I got, that was attached to a Magazine I bought.

LABOUR'S LGBT rights envoy Michael Cashman who is also a patron of the gay British chariity, The Pink Triangle Trust, has condemned the imprisonment in Morocco of a British man for "homosexual acts".
Ray Cole, 69, a retired magazine publisher from Deal in Kent, was arrested last month, during a holiday to Marrakesh to visit a Moroccan man, Jamal Jam Wald Nass.
On Thursday he was found guilty of 'homosexual acts' and sentenced to four months behind bars, alongside Mr Jam Wald Nass.
Lord Cashman, who was appointed by Ed Miliband as his LGBT rights envoy two weeks ago, told PinkNews:
This man should be released immediately. If not, then the Morocaans must face the economic and diplomatic consequences that will follow.
What is clear is what I've always argued – the rights we enjoy in the United Kingdom are not the same rights when we travel abroad.
That's why it's vital that the UK leads in the European Union, so that where we have trade agreements and association agreements they are based on upholding the rights that we have in common with the EU, and that includes non-discrimination on the grounds of being lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender.
As Labour's newly-appointed LGBT global envoy, this is part of the work that I will be undertaking with colleague within the UK and within the EU and the Commonwealth, to try to achieve a common set of principles that are based n fundamental human rights.
Mr Cole's son Adrian said previously:
The trial was a complete farce, it was just farcical. They've gone through his phone and found photographs that they're using as evidence for a homosexual act.
He's had a couple of minor strokes before and has a minor heart condition. He has also been suffering with depression, which the court didn't take into account.
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office said:
We can confirm the detention of a British national in Morocco. We are providing consular assistance.
Update (October 7,2014): The BBC today reported that Ray Cole has been released,

New Laws Mean Renters Will Legally Be Allowed To Nail Pictures To The Wall And Have Functioning Heating
About time!
Victorian tenants will get a whole lot more rights under a state government overhaul.
Premier Daniel Andrews announced 130 reforms will be introduced into parliament this week, 10 months after first flagging them ahead of the Northcote by-election.
"These reforms are about making a rental property your home, whether it be pets, picture hooks, other small modifications, getting your bond back more quickly," he told reporters on Sunday.
Every rental home will have to meet basic standards including functioning stoves, heating, deadlocks, safe gas and electricity, and working smoke alarms.
Rental bidding will be banned, rent increases will be limited to once a year, and tenants will be given the right to make minor modifications without landlord consent, such as nailing a hook on the wall or installing anchors to stop furniture falling on children.
People will also be able to keep pets with landlords only able to refuse the right of a tenant to have a pet by order of the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal.
The changes will also allow for quicker returns of bonds, which will be capped at four weeks' rent.
Recommendations from the royal commission into family violence will also be included.
"A woman trying to flee abuse can break a lease under these changes without incurring penalties, without there being that extra burden or that extra reason to perhaps feel that you had to say in an abusive, potentially tragic, relationship," Mr Andrews said.
Landlords would not be left out of pocket in such situations, he said, with compensation plans available.
Mr Andrews and Consumer Affairs Minister Marlene Kairouz said the reforms took time to be finalised because of consultation.

Screen printed 100% cotton tote bag with original design to celebrate the 5th anniversary of Haringey Migrant Support Centre. This high quality three colour screen print on natural cotton features one of the natural world's icons of migration - barn swallows. Swallows gather along coastlines to support each other on their long journey to breed and escape scarcity twice a year. This design highlights what little regard they hold for human borders when survival is at stake, something we can all learn from.
Haringey Migrant Support Centre provides much needed access to lawyers and advisors for people living in the UK with insecure immigration status. They also provide shared meals, hot drinks and a sense of community for folks who often don't know many people in London. All £10 of the cost of each sale will go directly to HMSC to continue this work. This is solidarity, not charity.

Can I Qualify for a Mortgage Loan in Washington With Credit Issues?
Is my credit score good enough to qualify for a mortgage loan? Can I get a home loan in Washington State with credit issues in the past? These are common questions among home buyers who need mortgage financing. Here's what you should know about the relationship between credit scores and home loans.
Overview: Qualifying for a Mortgage Loan in Washington State
We've addressed some of the basic mortgage requirements in Washington in a previous blog post. Here's a quick recap:
When you apply for a home loan in Washington State, or anywhere else for that matter, the bank or lender will review all aspects of your financial situation. This will include such things as your debt-to-income ratio, bank statements, employment status, and credit score.
This review process will tell you (A) if you're qualified for a mortgage loan, and (B) how much you are able to borrow based on your income and debts.
Why Credit Scores Are Important
Credit scores play an important role in the Washington State mortgage underwriting and approval process, and for several reasons.
Your credit score essentially shows how you have borrowed and repaid money in the past. It is computed based on the information contained within your credit reports, which are maintained by TransUnion, Experian and Equifax.
A higher score will improve your chances of qualifying for a mortgage loan in Washington, while a low score might make it harder to obtain financing. This three-digit number can also affect the interest rate you receive. Generally speaking, Washington State home buyers with higher credit scores tend to get lower rates on their mortgage loans.

Credit Issues Don't Haunt You Forever
Many Americans have had credit issues in the past. In fact, there's a long list of things that can lower your credit score. Late or missed payments on credit cards are one of the most common issues, but there are many more.
According to a 2016 analysis from the credit-reporting company Experian, nearly one-third of all Americans had a score lower than 601 (which is generally regarded as the distinction between "bad" and "fair" credit). So it's fairly common.
The good news is that credit issues don't haunt you forever. Negative entries can stay on your report for up to seven years in most cases, but their impact tends to lessen over time. In other words, you can rebound from past credit issues. Keep this in mind when applying for a mortgage loan in Washington State.
The Big Picture Is What Matters Most
Credit scores are an important part of the mortgage approval process in Washington State. But there's a much broader picture to consider as well.
When considering a loan application, banks and mortgage companies tend to look at all aspects of the applicant's financial picture. This includes income, employment, debts, payment histories, and — yes — the credit score.
Because of this "big picture" analysis, a relatively low credit score by itself isn't necessarily a deal-breaker. For example, if a borrower has recovered from credit issues in the past, and also has a long history of making debt payments on time, he or she could still qualify for a Washington State mortgage loan.
Also, it's important to point out that some mortgage programs are more forgiving, when it comes to borrower credit scores. The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) home loan program tends to have more flexible criteria, because the loans are insured by the federal government. Likewise, the VA mortgage program for military members can be more lenient than a "regular" conventional loan.
The bottom line is that it's possible to qualify for a mortgage loan in Washington State with credit issues in the past. But the only way to find out where you stand is by speaking to a lender.
Let's talk: We can evaluate your financial situation and let you know if you're a good candidate for a loan, and how much you can borrow. Contact our staff for help.

The heat is on
At least the invigilators weren't nazi-like as I had heard they can be. Once we were hearded into the exam room, had our instructions read to us and our books and belongings checked for any contraband, it was heads down, butts up. Now, as all of you students will know, three hours seems like a long time - if you're sitting in traffic or a dental chair but when you're expected to write three 500 word essays, it's amazing how fast time seems to fly.
Having read the topic questions during the 10 minute perusal time, I felt quite confident seeing as the topics of themes, character types and structure had been discussed continually during the last 14 weeks. However, with the ticking of the clock echoing in the background, my mind was a blank! Not to mention the fact that my brand new white out roller thingy wouldn't work, I couldn't remember if I was supposed to write in double lines or single AND as time progressed, I became increasingly aware that I was running out of paper (which was provided and we were given strict instructions not to bring any spare)!! To say it all felt like a nightmare would be an understatement. Before I knew it I had 30 minutes to complete and half the class had disappeared which only added to the sense of urgency. As a result, I'm fairly sure I was way under the required 500 words on the last question but I couldn't wait to high-tail it out of there.
On the way back to the car, I had all the usual feelings of failure, questioning myself about why I was really doing all this and contemplating on the three hours of my life I will never get back! What am I going to do with this degree? Should I just do something a little more practical and do a Teaching Degree? Why is it so hot?
On the bright side, this time next week I'll be on a plane heading far, far away to a land where it's much, much cooler and where I'll have plenty of time and space to ponder about my future prospects (I think!).

Our exam room (usually the sports hall) is always too cold, especially for exams in December - my hand freezes up and it gets quite painful to write! I'm not sure how I'd cope with 38 degrees, though.ReplyDelete
I hope you felt some sense of relief that it's over!
Yes, I do feel relieved. It's hard to know what's worse - freezing, numb hands or melting! Where can we go to get a happy medium! I'm glad I won't be here for part of the summer but I'm not too good in the cold either!ReplyDelete
It was 38 degrees here today too, only it was Fahrenheit so it was quite cold!ReplyDelete
Congratulation on completing you exams. I frequently wonder why I am doing this and shouldn't I be in the accounting program were apparently all the other non-trads are. But hang in there, you'll feel better once you have had a vacation.
I know - I need to stop thinking of the practicalities and just do what makes me happy -you never know where it's going to lead you!ReplyDelete

First exams are part of the, often steep, learning curve - I remember being an hour early for an exam too - I think it's a mature stdent trait! You're right, if you do what makes you happy then opportunities will open up for you. Life's way too short to spend 3/4 yrs not enjoying a course.ReplyDelete
