Belmont in Tishomingo County, Mississippi — The American South (East South Central)
Mac McAnally
Lyman Corbitt "Mac" McAnally, Jr., grew up in Belmont, where he sang and played piano at Belmont First Baptist Church before becoming a session musician and songwriter at the age of fifteen. McAnally wrote and recorded hit songs, their insightful lyrics expanding the range of country music and powerfully evoking the flavor of southern life. He was also a producer and an award-winning guitar player in Nashville form the 1970s into the twenty-first century.

Mac McAnally Born July 15, 1957, in Red Bay, Alabama, Lyman Corbitt (Mac) McAnally, Jr., grew up in Belmont. By the age of three he was singing gospel at the First Baptist Church as his mother played piano. By age eight he was beginning to play piano himself, and a year later writing poetry. At fifteen, he was regularly playing piano in honky tonks up across the Tennessee borderline, despite his lack of early exposure to country music, and he was writing ambitious short stories and poems, which he would soon begin converting into songs. In his junior year in high school, certain that he wanted a musical career, he left school to pursue it. His parents came to support the move though his father was the school's assistant principal.
Working as a session musician and fledgling songwriter at Wishbone Production
By the 1990s, Mac McAnally would emerge as a singular country music quadruple threat. As a producer, he would helm and sometimes engineer key releases by Marty Stuart, Sawyer Brown, Chris LeDoux and others, and operate a recording studio in Muscle Shoals. As an expressive guitar picker, he would appear on recordings by George Jones, Roy Orbison, Dolly Parton, Keith Whitley and Reba McIntyre, eventually

McAnally wrote a string of hits for the band Sawyer Brown, including "The Café on the Corner", "The Boys and Me", "All These Years" and produced six of their 1990s albums.
Kenny Chesney's 2008 version of McAnally's "Down The Road" was a Grammy-nominated Number 1 record; Mac sang one verse and harmony.
McAnally reached a wide audience as a regular songwriter and touring band guitarist for pop star Jimmy Buffett, on right.
This 1989 album, Simple Life, introduced McAnally country songs that would be recorded by Kenny Chesney, Jimmy Buffett, Sammy Kershaw, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Ricky Skaggs and Shenandoah, among others.

Take a natural backdrop of dazzling beaches, swaying palms and turquoise seas; add a good pinch of laidback atmosphere, season with colourful carnivals and reggae - then finish with a sprinkling of first-class hotels, all offering superb family facilities. The result? An easy-going Caribbean family holiday.
The Caribbean enjoys warm weather all year round, with especially favourable conditions between November and March. In fact, a Caribbean family holiday is perfect if you're looking for something different to do over Christmas or even Easter. Due to more frequent 'liquid sunshine', British summer time is 'low-season' in the Caribbean, but the benefit of this is some amazing value for families willing to travel at this time of year.
Our experts know very well that the 'perfect family holiday' is different for everyone. With fun-packed resorts, bustling towns and outstanding natural beauty you'll never be short of things to do in the Caribbean. The warm sea here is famed for its idyllic diving spots, with fish of every colour darting through the reefs.
Each island has its own identity, with glamourous beaches and vibrant resorts and towns on Barbados; natural wonders such as the twin peaks of the Pitons on St Lucia; and a beach for every day of the year in Antigua.
Can't choose which Caribbean island to take your family holiday on? Ask a Travel Specialist about a multi-centre escape or bespoke island-hopping itinerary to experience the glorious contrasts of the Caribbean for yourselves!
How can we get there?
At the Inspiring Travel Company we have strong relationships with many airline partners who fly to the Caribbean. There are frequent direct flights from London and regional UK airports such as Manchester to the larger Caribbean islands including Barbados and Antigua, from where there are plenty of connecting flights. But don't worry too much about the details; we'll arrange everything so all you have to do is arrive at the airport!

The Origins
The origins of fruit and vegetable carving are disputed:
many people believe it to have begun in Sukothai, Thailand 700 years ago, while others believe that fruit and vegetable carving originated in the time of the Tang Dynasty and the Sung Dynasty in China. Or perhaps Japan is the root of the art of fruit and vegetable carving, called Mukimono in Japanese. According the book "Japanese Garnishes, The Ancient Art of Mukimono", by Yukiko and Bob Haydok, Mukimono's origins began in ancient times when food was served on unglazed clay pottery. These rough platters were covered with a leaf before the food was plated. Artistic chefs realized that the cutting or folding of the leaf in different ways created a more attractive presentation. Until the sixteenth century, street artists created clever garnishes upon request.
Whatever way fruit carving originated, it is now known and practiced worldwide. Fruit and vegetable carving is flaunted in many different Asian restaurants, cruises, hotels, and other various places.

Solo and small firm attorneys are often looking to keep their overhead down. One of the ways this can be accomplished is by working from primarily from home and utilizing the services and benefits of a virtual office facility. Virtual offices afford attorneys the ability to work from anywhere they choose, while enabling them to establish a professional presence and a place to meet clients in a conveniently-accessible office atmosphere on an as needed basis. The virtual office also serves as their professional address that can be marketed and a place where they can receive their professional mail and have clients drop off and pick-up documents or payments.
Virtual Office facilities are located in most Tennessee cities, primarily in the major commercial business districts.Many of the national and regional virtual office companies allow their members to utilize their facilities in other parts of the city, state or country on as needed basis.A virtual office membership can be usually be established for less than $75 a month.
Virtual Office vs. Shared Office Arrangements
A virtual office is different from an office sharing arrangement.Most virtual office facilities provide mailbox/address services and on-demand office space to businesses.Unlike a shared office facility or an executive suite, offices and conference rooms are rented by the hour, half-day, or by the day; as opposed to monthly or annually.The attorney does not have a dedicated office or the fixed cost of one.This is a cost-effective option if you only meet with clients in person or need a conference room a few times a month.The "per use" or "pay as you go" model of virtual office facilities is attractive because you only pay for office space when you are actually using it.If the attorney only uses the virtual office when she is billing time or charging a fee, then the hourly rental cost or office use bundle easily pays for itself.Even if a shared or single rental office only costs a few hundred dollars a month, it still may not pay for itself every month, because you are paying for it every hour of everyday during the term of the lease.Finally, many virtual office facilities have administrative staff and other technological resources designed to support small business and mobile professionals.
Virtual Office vs. Traditional Full-time Office Lease
For most solo practitioners, working from home and utilizing a virtual office is a better choice than entering into commercial office lease. Most landlords require a 5 year commitment. Most virtual office facilities require a commitment of less than a year; thereby providing the practice with more flexibility.
The financial investment and commitment involved in a traditional office far exceeds the lease. Utilities, office equipment, furniture, phone service, and internet service are just a few expenses that one has to incur in establishing a traditional office outside of their home. Working primarily at home and strategically using a virtual office, allows one to avoid duplicating or eliminate these expenses.
Professional image and marketing
Many attorneys worry that not having a full-time office will compromise their image and be unattractive to client. In addition to the ethical concerns, most clients prefer to meet with a lawyer in a private office or conference room in a professional environment. Most attorneys prefer not to have clients meet at their personal home. The virtual office meets the needs of both the clients and attorneys.
Furthermore, a virtual office can enhance your personal image by allowing you to establish a professional presence in a prestigious location downtown or in upscale suburban office complex near attractive amenities without paying pricy rent in these areas. While most lawyers are not required to have an office near the courthouse or in a particular neighborhood, certain addresses or areas may be more appealing to certain prospective and current clients Many firms have used virtual offices to open a branch office in other Ohio cities, before making a full investment in brick and mortar. Others attorneys have utilized virtual offices to have multiple offices throughout the same city for meeting and marketing purposes. Virtual office can provide a place where a key employee who has moved to a different city or state can occasionally work or conduct meetings. Depending on the location of the facility, the virtual address can also increase your law practice's search engine ranking for those searching for lawyers online.
Many virtual office facilities are staffed, thereby allowing the practice to have a full-time front desk without a full-time office.Attorneys can have their clients drop off documents and payments to a reliable and professional person.When clients visit the office, clients are greeted and offered refreshments, giving the same professional feel as a larger firm.
Most importantly, the attorney who minimizes his or her expenses by utilizing a virtual office can devote more resources towards other marketing and technological solutions to maintain and grow their practices.Many attorneys utilizing virtual office have asserted that many clients actually admire that their fees are not being invested in fancy office and furniture.
In sum, many solo practitioners and small firms have found that virtual office combined with a home office can be a cost-effective way to reduce overhead expenses while maintaining a professional presence.Recently, some large law firms have even begun utilizing these virtual office facilities.[i] This trend will continue to grow as more attorneys and firms discover this cost-effective way of having an office for their practice.

The company will start selling the new Microsoft game console Xbox One in 13 countries, including the U.S., Australia and the UK on November 22 this year.
As reported in media, Microsoft originally planned to sale out the Xbox One in the markets of 21 different countries in November, as announced in May. However there is some bad news for Gamers in some countries that include Russia, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland, it will not be available before 2014. Delay in access to the company listed markets explains the nuances of the localization of Consoles, Games for internet and create unique content for each country specifically.
From November 22 start, Xbox One will be available to customers in the US, UK, Canada, Ireland, Germany, Spain, France, Italy, Austria, Brazil, Mexico, Australia and New Zealand. Don't forget the main competitor of Xbox One – The game console Sony PlayStation 4, which will be sold in North America on November 15, and in Europe, including Russia, and Latin America from 29th November. Thus there will be a tough competition between these two rivals to bring out the money from Gamer's pockets in the pre-season sales.
Vice President of marketing for Xbox; Mr. Yusuf Mehdi said that the activity of pre-orders for the new Console has already surpassed the previous models of Consoles. He also ensured that the frequency and speed of the processor for Xbox One has improved from 1.6 GHz to 1.75 GHz. Cost of Xbox One will be in the global market of US $ 500, € 499 or £ 429, depending on the Country. At the Same time, with its access to the Market for it will be available to 23 Games, that include Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag, Battlefield 4, Call of Duty: Ghosts, FIFA 14 and some others popular games.

Washington County Public Schools officials presented to Board of Education members a plan for cutting the fiscal 2004 general fund budget by more than $5 million during a work session Monday.
More than $2 million of the proposed cuts would come from instruction. They would include "personnel action that may affect existing staff," and reducing the number of new teaching positions the board hoped to add in the coming academic year, Schools Superintendent Elizabeth Morgan said.
Morgan did not say what the personnel changes affecting existing staff would be. She said the School Board's "priority has been not to reduce (the number of )classroom teachers in order to maintain class size" and to have teaching staff available to implement requirements of the new federal No Child Left Behind law.

Fridays in Half term; normality will be resumed..... eventually
But in the meantime, I mean to use my last few days wisely.
In drinking chai and meditating. I took my son, James to a revision lesson at his school this morning so on the way home I stopped off at the park and had my chai and 10 quiet minutes. I watched the dogs playing and the rain raining and returned home feeling very chilled.
No, more than happy. I am pleased with the result.
The red pvc is my old table cloth that got ripped by a stray plastic storage box and was therefore not going to stay on the table. I measured and stapled and the result is very fetching. Not quite lace edged shelves, but definitely shelves with class.
The baking cupboard. I swapped the position of this in the kitchen. With Sarah being such a keen baker, we needed more room for the resources she uses. The top cupboard has the ingredients,
And the full effect; everything she needs to make me a little something for fika all in one place. We're missing some cocoa powder, so I'll put that on the next shopping list.
The mugs cupboard. There are five people in the house and..... well, I dread to count how many mugs we have. Enough. More than enough.
Talking mugs, I still haven't heard from Brocante Home and the way-overdue download. As far as I can work out, nobody who ordered it has received it. And I have heard nothing since the weekend. Sad faces, here. All I wanted was a message to say when it would be ready. So, friends, advice please; do I start a case against Brocante Home for non-delivery of a product that I have paid for, or shall I sit tight and be patient? I don't want to be horrible, but I would probably have started something against a person I didn't 'know' selling a physical product.
But I was trawling for another 'uber' blogger to read and came across Kimberly Wilson, a Yogini and lifestyle blogger from Washington DC. Her site is good for mindfulness and living well. Oh, and she has a massive thing for pink, I think. I've bookmarked it and I will be reading through the archives, while I spent an Amazon voucher on her book, Hip Tranquil Chick: A Guide to Life on and Off the Yoga Mat and will be reading it, mindfully, during the weekend.
And another blogger I found is Abigail Alice. This young, pretty 24 year old lives in Liverpool and blogs about life and fashion. And I taught her when she was 5 (and just as beautiful!) I may never visit her blog again, but I had to share the link just to say that I am so proud of her. I wish I knew what my other old pupils were up to. It's the drawback of teaching the lower reaches of the school; pupils sometimes go back to their senior school to visit, but rarely if ever the KS1 department. Time passes, the teachers change, and they were different people then. It's lovely to know that the child has grown into a useful and very talented member of society.

Purpose: :
Regenerative medicine using donor-derived cells and tissues, somatic stem cells, and ES cells include some problems such as rejection and ethical objection. Application of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells to regenerative medicine is expected to bypass these problems. To apply iPS cells to corneal epithelial disorders, we examined differentiation of iPS cells into corneal epithelial cells.
Methods: :
For differentiation of iPS cells into epithelial cells, dissociated cells were seeded onto mitomycin C-treated feeder cells. After several weeks of culture with FBS, in order to confirm the phenotype of epithelial cells had been induced, expression of cytokeratin 18 (K18) as a non-squamousepithelial marker, cytoleratin 14 (K14) and p63 as the stratified epithelial marker, and cytokeratin 12 (K12) as a corneal epithelial marker, were examined by immunohistochemistry.
Results: :
Immunohistochemistry revealed K18-positive colonies and K14-positive both mouse and human iPS cells-derived colonies, which cultured on feeder cells for 2 weeks. In addition, K14-positive cells were p63-positive but not K18-positive cells. Furthermore, we found some K12-positive cells in K14-positive colonies. In the case of mouse iPS-derived cells, most colonies expressing K14 at high levels did not overlap with the colonies expressing K18 at a high level. In contrast, K14-positive cells from human iPS cells were dispersed among K18-positive colonies.
Conclusions: :
These results suggested that the culture method using mitomycin C-treated feeder cells is available to produce K12-positive corneal epithelial cells from iPS cells.

Techniques for Knowing Your SEO Client
Posted 25/08/2010on:
- In: Blogs | SEO Tips
- 3 Comments
One of the biggest mistakes that people make when they start out on their first SEO campaign is that they don't work out exactly what it is they want to achieve from the campaign. Being page 1 on Google is all very well, but if you target the wrong keywords for your site you will actually damage your site in the 'eyes' of Google.
You must get to know your client. Make sure you are all 'on the same page' in terms of what they hope to achieve from the campaign. Ask them what outcome they hope to get from their SEO campaign. It may be increased sales, increased enquiries, signing up for a newsletter or simply brand reaffirming by placing them first for their company name.
If your client has an eCommerce site it is worthwhile asking them which products have the highest margin, as targeting these directly will make the client the best ROI (Return on Investment). This approach also works well for targeting service providers (e.g. plumbers, electricians etc) as there may be a particular service that brings in more money than other services. For example a new boiler installation for a plumber would be better than fixing leaking taps.
Another thing to consider is regional specific SEO. I often ask my clients which area they want to target first, as there are often add-on costs involved for the client if they have to service areas further away. Alternatively, they may know that certain areas have more of their target audience in, and therefore are better to 'go for'.
The next thing to make sure your client is well aware of is the timescales involved with SEO. SEO is a time consuming process, and the first three months are often fraught with dangers, the client can't see results because the listing hasn't yet reached its desired position, and you feel under pressure to get the site performing asap. This is not the time to dip into black hat techniques though! Make sure you are transparent with your client as to what can be achieved in the timescale they are willing to work with. It may be a case of working on 'easier' keywords that will get them an ROI first before tackling the 'tougher' keywords that take time.
Remember, SEO is all about marketing your client, albeit through a search engine rather than 'traditional' means. Therefore, you must make sure that you client makes money. This is your ultimate job. Page 1 listings are fantastic, of course they are, but money in the bank for your client is what really makes the difference.
Use all the tools at your disposal, Google Analytics for example can tell you a lot about which keywords perform well, whether the pages targeted for those keywords are effective and ultimately whether you are going for the right keywords. Watch out for articles on Google Analytics, and how to get the best from this fabulous tool.
Once you have a good relationship with your client, and this takes time, you will be in a unique position to be able to advise them as to where their online marketing should go next. If you are anything like me, you will genuinely want to help make your client money! I get a massive buzz when my clients report increased sales or enquiries.
If I have done the initial work in ensuring I am targeting the best keywords for their business then I know I will be on the right track once the site starts to perform. This is the key to a successful SEO campaign.

There is no Conclusion to Life!
"What Jesus said is actually true. When you are in spiritual consciousness you can ask God for anything and get it. Only be sure that you are asking for something spiritual, for that is all that God has to give. And what is it that is spiritual? Nothing but God.
Therefore, ask for anything you want so long as you ask for God. It doesn't make any difference what you ask for, only be sure you are asking for God. No one in the history of the world has ever prayed for God to give them the gift of Himself, the Gift of God, who has not received it.
Whereas people are sitting around praying for companionship, money, employment and they keep praying for days and then wonder why God did not see fit to answer their prayers. God only has Himself to give and that is all that you should pray for!"--Study & Meditation #24 from Joel Goldsmith, 1958
The mind training of the Course in Miracles teaches me to let go of ANY result here.
I do not know what my best interests are.
ONLY your relationship with God has any reality.
Master Teacher told me one day on the phone:
You are waiting for a conclusion. There isn't any.
That hit me right in the eye-and I started to see. I am so grateful!
Somewhere I was still waiting for something to occur in time. A conclusion to all my efforts and dedication to God. Sometime, when I will be rewarded for my good deeds and such.
Here on earth the conclusion is always death. You really think if you will be dying some day, you will be going to heaven. Death as your foundation for heaven. NO. You are dead right NOW believing that.
Heaven can ONLY be reached right NOW.
It is your mindfulness towards an alternative.
Not THIS anyway.
Believing you are a body and separate from God was a mistake. It has been corrected.
Finally you are not afraid anymore to trust in God with all you got and GLAD, that we are NOT getting what we are praying for.
It is not going to be how I think it should or will be.
Thank God!
It is always a surprise!
I love you. Mean it.

City of Orillia 150 Initiatives
These Orillia projects are large-scale, participation-oriented activities, with high impact. These projects will bring Canadians together to celebrate, participate in events and share experiences.
|Majestic Maples
The City of Orillia, together with the Environmental Advisory Committee (EAC), is working on a number of sesquicentennial tree projects that look to maintain and enhance our tree canopy for current and futute generations. More information can be found by visiting EAC's Sesquicentennial Tree Projects.
150 Maple Leaf
In honour of Canada and Orillia's sesquicentennial, City Council is creating a unique float which will involve citizens in the Canada Day parade.
In addition to sporting maple leaves signed by students from every elementary and high school in Orillia, the float will include a large one the public is invited to sign leading up to the event. The leaf is on display at the Orillia Public Library until June 29.
Once complete, pictures of the leaves will be included in the 150 time capsule set to be kept on display at the new recreation facility and opened in 25 years.
|Sesquicentennial Time Capsule Project
Share Your Memories with Us
Update: Be sure to visit the City's Time Capsule booth to share your community spirit and make your mark on the 150. The booth will be in Couchiching Beach Park on July 1st from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. for visitors to leave a message to future generations of what #myOrillia was like in 2017.
The City of Orillia is inviting residents to share your memories with us for the Sesquicentennial Time Capsule project, which looks to create a digital legacy of 2017 for generations to come.

|OOH Photo Exhibit "A Century of Memories"
For over 117 years, the City has dreamed, laughed, wept and fought inside the Orillia Opera House. Many of the City's defining moments have taken place under its landmark twin spires.
Not long after Orillia became a village, residents began to think about moving the market from its location near the waterfront. After a few years of debate, a landowner named Goldwin Smith agreed to donate a half-acre lot on the northwest corner of Mississaga and West Streets. In return, the Village had to clear Mississaga Street West of stumps so Smith could subdivide another parcel of his land up the street.
Some people in the Village wanted nothing more than a good large shed and a few stalls put up in the market for farmers. But the Village Councillors wanted a new town hall to replace the Temperance Hall and a proper lock-up for the rowdies that plagued their lumber town. Arguments over the building of the hall delayed its opening, and Council finally had its first meeting in the new hall August 7, 1874. This Town Hall and lock-up served well from 1874 to 1877. Council again decided something grander was needed for both the shed and town hall, and after a few false starts, tenders were called for, based on plans prepared by the Toronto architectural firm of Gordon and Halliwell and the Opera House was completed in 1895. It cost taxpayers $25,000 and held the Council Chamber, auditorium, City Hall offices, market stalls and eventually the lock-up.
The Opera House, described as "the finest building for corporation purposes of any town in Ontario", became an immediate source of pride for Orillia. The auditorium had 905 seats with an exquisite wrap around balcony common to the formal Opera Houses of Europe, which might have contributed to its name.
Unfortunately, fire broke out in July 6, 1915 and destroyed most of the building. Construction on a new building was completed in 1917, which has undergone a myriad of renovations and upgrades in subsequent years. These have transformed the Opera House into a world-class venue for the performing arts. Known for its fine acoustics, it has featured such artists as the Marx Brothers, Glenn Gould, Oscar Peterson, k.d. lang, Mickey Rooney, Dan Hill, Liona Boyd, Blue Rodeo, George Canyon, Paul Brandt, Ron James, Manteca, Lighthouse, The Stampeders and our own hometown boy, Gordon Lightfoot. The 700 seat auditorium was also a movie house from the 20's until the late 50's, making it a favourite place on a Saturday for a kid to spend an afternoon for a quarter.
On January 1, 2017, an exhibit was unveiled honouring this rich heritage. It was installed on the grand staircase on the occasion of the building's 100th anniversary and the City's sesquicentennial. Download the brochure before visiting the site.
Business hours are posted at www.orilliaoperahouse.ca.
This project is funded in part by the City of Orillia and Government of Canada.

The Healing Power of Plants
Why Mindful Medicinals?
Acknowledging mindfulness as a part of our herbalism allows us to stay grounded in the reality of inter-connectedness. That we heal not just from ingesting the herb, but by spending time with it and its many relatives outside, where the plants are. That we remain humble that the plants would give us such profound possibilities for change, whether those changes come from alkaloids or from aromatics. It means examining our lifestyle when we examine why we need an herb for joint-inflammation or mood enhancement, as well as our food choices, relationships, sleep habits and so forth.
It means looking at our physical health as one of many interconnected strands in the web of our lives.
The Herbalist Behind Mindful Medicinals:
Blaire Edwards is a Western Herbalist and Educator, Product Developer and Formulator in Venice Beach, California. She has formulated herbal products for both individual clients as well large-scale food, beverage and supplement industry companies.
Her passion is the intersection of plants and human experience.
Blaire is currently taking clients both as a clinical herbalist, as well as a product developer. She can be contacted here.

Hi I'm Thomas Turek
My name is Thomas, I'm a missionary and I invite everybody to come unto Christ! I'm basically a Superhero -and I'm a Mormon.
About Me
My name is Thomas! (But you can call me Elder Turek.) I'm a hoodrat from St. George Utah, but I call Alpine Utah, home. I'm 19 years old, I love drawing cheesy cartoons and comics: I love animation, music, singing, photography, kickboxing, Epee Fencing, going Super Saiyen, and preaching the Gospel. My goal in life is to be a friend to everybody. My passion is making others smile! I love bringing others unto Christ, and I strive to be the best person I can be each day. I love the life I've been given, and I love the good things in life, like my family! I have a HUGE family, but it's not the stereotypical Latter-day Saint family. It's way cooler then that. I was adopted as a newborn by loving parents, and later gained a step-mother and her kids through a divorce and remarriage. So, I've got family by blood, family by sealing, and family by marriage. I'm pretty much loved. I don't know what I want to be when I grow up quite yet. But! I want to do something that helps people in some way. (i.e: Animator, Worlds best Dad, Elementary School teacher, Comedian, Pediactric Doctor, OBGYN, Super Model, Super Hero, Graphic Designer, Voice Actor, Seminary Teacher, Therapist, Olympic Fencer, Cinimetographer, Photographer.. etc.) Regardless of what I end up doing, the most important thing I can be, is a Missionary. A believer, follower, and disciple of Jesus Christ. A man that loves the Savior Jesus Christ.That is who I am, who I want to be, and who I will be.
Why I am a Mormon
I am a Mormon, because I know with all my heart that this is the true church of Christ on the Earth today. It took me some time, and some trial, before I finally had my answer. I grew up in a pretty dysfunctional family. It was hard for me to keep my faith as a child and adolesant. I eventually, fell away from the Church. I stopped attending weekly, and lost my faith in Christ, and His teachings. I fell into a deep depression while living this life, and couldn't understand why. I felt I had no purpose in life. I felt like there was nothing in this life worth living for. In time, I was able to meet a few members of the Church, that truly lived what they believed. They showed me by their example. They were happy! There was a special light in their eyes, and a warmth to their hearts, and I wanted to be like them. That light, and warmth was Christ. I sought, long and hard, to build my faith. It took much effort on my part. Much confidence, in something, I couldn't see, or hear. I read from the Book of Mormon. I prayed daily. I changed every aspect of who I was, and sought to be the best person I could be. To get away from and the sad, and be happy! After much effort. And much prayer, and confidence in the Lord. I got my answer. I know now that God is our loving Heavenly Father. That Christ lives. That the Book of Mormon is the word of God. And that God has a plan, for us all. We have something to live for. We have a purpose. It's Him.
How I live my faith
I am currently serving a full-time LDS mission. (Exciting, right?!) I have been called to serve in the state of Florida, learning the Haitian Creole language. It is an incredible privilege to share the Gospel with the world, and more specifically, the Haitian people of Florida! I promised myself as a teenager that I'd: "never hesitate to teach another about Christ." And so, here am I. I can think of no better way of being a disciple, and follower of Christ, then sacrificing all of my time, talents, abilities, and life, to the Lord in serving this mission. I get to spend every single day teaching people about Jesus Christ. About the life he lived, and the infinite love he has for us. I strive each day, to live worthy, and follow the example Christ has given us.. I love my Brother Jesus Christ. I love His Gospel, I love His Church, and I love the Book of Mormon. Everyday I wake up, and get to serve Him. And, everyday I wake up, is the best day of my life. I work my hardest each day, to follow in the example Christ has set for us, and strive to be the best teacher, and missionary, I can be. I invite everybody I meet, to come unto Christ, and receive all the blessings I have been given in my life! Happiness.

Every once in a while an absolutely gorgeous show car appears on the circuit that looks all to producible, and which the company seems determined to bring to market. Great looks, fantastic performance potential, a corporate flagship to be super proud of — except that when you've just lost 1.5 billion smackaroos in the last reported quarter, a super-duper flagship that doesn't share components with any other production vehicle is just not going to be on the to-be-produced slate.
WardsAuto.com remarks:
"We're not doing Firepower," Trevor Creed, senior vice president-design, says. "We just couldn't find a viable way to do it."
Reeling from the effects of bloated inventories, which led to a $1.5 billion third-quarter loss and an internal drive to shave $1,000 per vehicle-production cost, Chrysler is refocused on profitability.
Against this backdrop, the auto maker has said no product will enter its pipeline unless it has realistic profit potential. This approach killed the Jeep Gladiator concept earlier in the year, which debuted alongside the Firepower at the 2005 North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
And it even caused the Dodge Challenger concept – a can't-miss product in the eyes of most industry observers – to undergo rigorous scrutiny before the auto maker declared it would build the muscle car in 2008.
The Challenger is still a go — Guess we will just have to be thankful for that!

As part of the IVC Group, Itec Contract Floors is firmly committed to minimising the impact of its products and processes. With a full suite f environmental accreditations including BRE Environmental Profiles, Itec Contract Floors can provide your project with vinyl flooring designed to minimising impact on the environment throughout its life cycle. For detailed information on our sustainability policies, download our Green Policy
Wind Farm
In 2012 the IVC Group obtained the necessary building and environmental permits for an on-site wind farm. These three turbines are now operational and transmit the infinite power of the wind to our industrial park in Avelgem, a combined total that accounts for more than one-third of the plants' annual energy consumption.
Cooling Water
The IVC Group has invested in an extensive project which uses the surface water from the nearby Scheldt river as a coolant. At the production unit in Avelgem, the water which is required as a cooling agent in the manufacturing process is passed through a closed loop circuit. The cold temperature of the river water cools down the semi-finished products at different stages in the manufacturing process, each time preparing them for a next step in production. So far, the results of this project have been very encouraging with a 30% boost in energy efficiency, a significant noise reduction and zero damage to the environment.
Energy Recovery
In every one of our plants, we recover and re-use materials, heat and energy in the course of the production process. The IVC Group calls this 'The Big Commute' principle. And we stick by it, every step of the way!
Recycled Resources
Our Moduleo design floors partly consist of recycled materials of a controlled origin. Through post industrial recycling we are able to distil a particularly 'pure' type of PVC with a very limited impact on the environment.
Waste Water
With the exception of tap water and rainwater, the plants of the IVC Group do not waste or spill a single drop of H2O. Water is not only used as a natural coolant in the production cycle, but also as a cleaning product during the stages of printing.
Waste Streams
From the get-go in 1997, the IVC Group has made a point of recycling the PVC waste streams generated in the manufacture of its products. Vinyl scraps are salvaged and then pressed into bales, ready to be re-used in a wide variety of applications. All surplus PVC paste is similarly recovered and injected back into the production process of our sheet vinyl.
Curbing Emissions
Volatile Organic Compounds
The processing of PVC inevitably releases VOCs, or volatile organic compounds, which can cause damage to the environment. The IVC Group, however, uses suction and diversion to remove potentially harmful VOC emissions at the source. In Avelgem, the diffusions are rounded up and rerouted into a state-of-the-art condenser, which is able to recoup the bulk of these compounds and re-use them in the production process.
Indoor Air Quality
The release of volatile organic compounds is not only confined to the in-house production process of vinyl, but also likely to occur throughout the entire lifespan of building materials. Some products (such as glue, paint, or wooden panels) are liable to emit concentrations of VOCs for prolonged periods of time. The IVC Group has made great strides in counteracting this phenomenon, and in safeguarding the Indoor Air Quality for the duration of our floors' long and healthy life. This commitment has earned our products the green A+ label, the highest accolade awarded by the French authorities.
Water-based inks and PU Coatings
The IVC Group exclusively uses water-based inks for its printing purposes. This decision has completely eliminated the risk of hazardous toxins being released into the air, and markedly reduced our carbon footprint overall. Moreover, the polyurethane finish that protects our Moduleo floors and keeps them looking fresh is entirely water-based.
Keeping track of our Achievements
BRE Ecopoints
All Itec and Moduleo products have been certified by BRE Global, the Building Research Establishment in the UK. In order to acquire this certification, products are submitted to a life-cycle assessment (LCA). Our excellent A+ and A ratings demonstrate the real progress the IVC Group has made in reducing the environmental impact of its products.

With regard to colour printing of the photographic images, it is only possible to give a provisional representation of the colour.

HamOnt ML builds machine learning community
Hamilton's first ever machine learning conference took place this weekend. The event was excellent for a bunch of reasons.
Strong mix of industry, government and academia talks. We had leaders from industry, government, academia represented in the talk and panel line-up, and it manifested itself in some great connections, between industry and academia in particular!
It sold out, completely. We've been doing conferences on topics that we knew there was a local market for, in the case of topics like JavaScript and User Experience. But for a topic that's a little more "emerging" in terms of prevalence in local industry, we were blown away by the response for this one.
40% of the attendees were McMaster students. McMaster students can be a very tough audience to pull out to off-campus, Hamilton-branded events. Students call it the "McMaster bubble" (there's even a Pop the Bubble initiative). But they showed up in large numbers, I guess if you built it right they will come. I was talking to a bunch students afterwards that were very happy to see this type of a topic and talk line-up in Hamilton.
The mayor showed up! Yes, that's him in the photo! Fred Eisenberger (@fredeisenberger) came by and said a few words at the start in support of the community, and recognizing the willingness of Hamiltonians to collaborate as a community strength. It was great to see support from the mayor for something in the community at the grassroots level.
Andrew Holden at Weever Apps and myself started up this conference series last year, with different leaders in the community organizing each topic (@dpetican, @megthesmith, @eimaj, @kensills). It'll be continuing next year, details on event dates posted early next year.

Midwest Book Review - Convictions
The year is 1842 and fourteen-year-old Jennie Lawrence has been found guilty of stealing and finds herself aboard one of the few women-only convict ships, destined for Australia. The conditions aboard the ship are abhorrent: the women are ill from lack of food and water and are beaten if they disobey orders. The only way for the women to survive the voyage is to band together. And so, with the help of Sarah, Bridget, Alice and other convicts, her new "family", young Jennie battles the jailers, the ship and the sea. But will it be enough to set them free? "Convictions" is a simply riveting read from beginning to end and will prove to be an enduringly popular addition to highschool and community library YA Fiction collections. It should be noted for personal reading lists of teen readers that "Convictions" is also available in a Kindle format ($7.52).

"When I started as prosecutor, the intimidation was a lot more direct," says one former prosecutor who now works for the Vera Institute of Justice. "It's a new frontier and being done in ways we never could have imagined before. We see a lot more people being intimidated through Facebook and even on Twitter."
With the advent of social media, the justice system is struggling with how to respond to a new way for certain people to attempt intimidate witnesses, prosecutors, judges and even jurors: social media. With camera-equipped smart phones ubiquitous, Internet harassment is both difficult to prevent and hard to prosecute due to the complexity of collecting and using electronic evidence against the offenders.
In cases ranging from gang-related crime to domestic violence, it's often hard for prosecutors to convince victims and witnesses to testify in the first place. In many areas there is a strong "anti-snitch" culture, and the relative anonymity of the Internet appears to embolden people in this area much as it does in the comments section of online articles.
"There's a sense you can hide behind it," said the former prosecutor. "People are setting up fake accounts. We didn't imagine this would be some kind of a problem."
With a fake account, for example, the process of obtaining the electronic evidence that could reveal the account holder's identity involves sending subpoenas to the phone company or Internet provider for the account holder's subscriber information and IP address.
Moreover, unlike the National Security Agency's rumored ability to obtain phone records easily, state law enforcement agencies' access to such information is not nearly so absolute. Even with full cooperation from the companies it can be hard to prove that a particular person posted any specific threat, according to a computer forensics and digital evidence consultant interviewed by the ABA Journal.
Witness tampering and intimidation via social media has taken a variety of forms, from posting a witness statement on Facebook with the comment "kill all rats," to photographing an 12-year-old alleged victim of child molestation while she was on the stand and broadcasting it on Twitter. In an Ohio murder case, a friend of the accused filmed the prosecutor and the jury for eight minutes before he was noticed, terrifying jurors.
On the other hand, cell phone cameras can also be used to fight witness intimidation, as well, points out the deputy chief of criminal prosecutions in Cook County, Illinois. "We had a situation where someone was trying to intimidate one of our witnesses the old-fashioned way," he told the ABA Journal. "So one of them took out her phone and took a video of the guy making threats."

Alan Pardew has made nine changes to the Newcastle starting line-up for tonight's Europa League Group D tie at Bordeaux.
Mike Williamson and Sylvain Marveaux ate the only players starting tonight who played in Monday night's great 3-0 win against Wigan.
Youngsters James Tavernier, Shane Ferguson, Gael Bigirimana, Sammy Ameobi, Mehdi Abeid and Nile Ranger all start tonight – and 17 year-old Adam Campbell is on the bench.
Newcastle will play in a 4-2-3-1 formation with Shola up front, and with Nile Ranger, Sylvain Marveaux and Sammy Ameobi backing up Shola, and of course Mehdi Abeid and Gael Bigirimana in central midfield.
Both teams have already qualified for the last 32 – but we expect Newcastle to try to get another win in this game.
Howay The Lads!!
Bordeaux: (4-4-2): Kevin Olimpa; Matthieu Chalme, Marc Planus, Florian Marange, Maxime Poundje; Fahid Ben Khalfallah, Andre Poko, Gregory Sertic (c), Henri Saivet; David Bellion, Cheick Diabate
Substitutes: Abdoulaye Keita, Ludovic Sane, Landry N'Guemo, Nicolas Maurice-Belay, Hadi Sacko
Newcastle United (4-2-3-1): Rob Elliot; James Tavernier, James Perch, Mike Williamson, Shane Ferguson; Mehdi Abeid, Gael Bigirimana; Nile Ranger, Sylvain Marveaux, Sammy Ameobi; Shola Ameobi (c)
Substitutes: Tim Krul, Danny Simpson, Fabricio Coloccini, Vurnon Anita, Romain Amalfitano, Papiss Cisse, Adam Campbell
Referee: Menashe Masiah (Israel)

has jonas suffered an injury because unless he has i can't see any reason for marvo starting ahead of him
and i know for sure jonas does not deserve to be in the startting 11 premier league games.
when a professional football player malcolm macdonald gets annoyed with him starting them you don't need to go any further as that proves jonas is not good enough for the starting 11
if marvo start tonight is not bad enough i found this on sky sports web
now to me this is marvo warning the club that if they don't start playing him over the likes of jonas then he is away
It's about time Abeid got a start. Can't believe Williamson's playing again. Ferguson is not a left back. Tavernier is very poor. Shola isn't good enough and I'm not sure about Sammi yet. Hopefully James Perch will have a good game tonight. It's crucial that he starts ahead of Williamson for the next match. Looking forward to seeing Marveaux.
I think what is happning is Pardew wants to see how Marveux does 2 games in a row you just have to look at Anita he has played lots of league and Europa back to back now and can now be trusted
If Marveux does not play well tonight and does not try he will be on the bench Monday but if he applies himself and we beat Bordeuax he may just get the nod a bit like how he eased Arfa into the team but also got him working hard and to be fair he has made Arfa a much better player
The jury is still out for me on Tav, Abeid, Sammy….AND Shola !!
Lets hope i am proved wrong though!
I don't think Shola will be too bothered about you still having the jury out on him, at 31 I don't think he will feel he has too much more time to sway those that are still on the fence (Ibiza)
I wouldn't be second guessing Pards, Marveaux just needs to make a statement of intent and ensure that Pards cannot overlook him. A good performance tonight could make sure of that.
Kets the pressure is on tonight, if Abeid doesn't do the business you could be in for some flack 😛

Lawmakers heavily invested in defense
Study Shows Lawmakers Have As Much As $196 Million Invested in Defense Companies
AP News
Apr 03, 2008 18:09 EST
Members of Congress have as much as $196 million collectively invested in companies doing business with the Defense Department, earning millions since the onset of the Iraq war, according to a study by a nonpartisan research group.
Not all the companies in which lawmakers invested are typical defense contractors. Corporations such as PepsiCo, IBM, Microsoft and Johnson & Johnson have at one point received defense-related contracts, notes the report by the Washington-based Center for Responsive Politics.
The center's review of lawmakers' 2006 financial disclosure statements suggests that members' holdings could pose a conflict of interest as they decide the fate of Iraq war spending. Several members earning money from these contractors have plum committee or leadership assignments, including Democratic Sen. John Kerry, independent Sen. Joseph Lieberman and House Republican Whip Roy Blunt.
The study found that more Republicans than Democrats hold stock in defense companies, but that the Democrats who are invested had significantly more money at stake. In 2006, for example, Democrats held at least $3.7 million in military-related investments, compared to Republican investments of $577,500.
Overall, 151 members hold investments worth $78.7 million to $195.5 million in companies that receive defense contracts that are worth at least $5 million. These investments earned them anywhere between $15.8 million and $62 million between 2004 and 2006, the center concludes.
It is unclear how many members still hold these investments and exactly how much money has been made. Disclosure reports for 2007 aren't due until this May. Also, members are required to report only a general range of their holdings.

The City of Kirksville Finance Department issues business licenses and regulates the business activities of industries such as: retail, food and liquor establishments, entertainment venues and theaters, service for hire, manufacturing facilities, and motor vehicle repair shops. The best point of reference regarding this process is the Business License Clerk, who can be reached at 660.627.1251.
Before contacting the Business License Clerk for the application, make sure you check your zoning. A business license will be denied if zoning requirements are not met. Refer back to step 2 for help determining your zone.
Once you've double checked that you are properly zoned or have completed the proper process to be rezoned, you are ready to apply for your business license. Use the below link for detailed instructions.
Applying for a Business License
Once you've turned in your business license application, the City will start the approval process. Codes & Planning, Fire, and for some the Adair County Health Department will have to sign off on your application stating that you are zoned properly, and also complete an inspection of your location to ensure there are no code violations that present safety concerns, that handicap accessibility regulations are followed, etc. Codes & Planning will call you to schedule this inspection to ensure all inspectors, including the Health Department if required, can be present at the same time. This way you won't have to deal with multiple inspections from multiple City & County departments. The Health Department only has to inspect in certain circumstances regarding food service related businesses.
ATTENTION CONTRACTORS: The City of Kirksville requires Contractors to pass comprehensive testing before they can be approved to be a general contractor, electrician and/or plumber with in the City of Kirksville. There are options available to waive out of testing. For more information regarding contractors testing requirements and waivers please visit Codes & Planning's contractor testing requirements webpage.
After your application clears all department approvals, it will be sent back to Finance for their final approval and processing. Once Finance receives your application, your official business license can take up to two weeks to receive in the mail. Although you won't receive your paperwork, you are cleared to open up for business.
Step 5 > I'm open, now what?

Planning commission approves new 240-unit apartment complex
As housing rental rates continue to climb, the Glendale Planning Commission approved plans for a proposed new 240-unit apartment complex near Camelback Road and the Loop 101.
The commission unanimously approved the plan during the June 7 meeting and the plan will now be forwarded to council for final approval.
The new complex is located near the corner of Camelback Road and 95th Avenue and is currently owned by Lowe's, which was going to build before agreeing to sell the property to P.B. Bell, the developer of the apartment complex. P.B. Bell also developed apartment complexes in Aspera, near 75th and Loop 101. That development opened two years ago.
The property was rezoned Thursday from planned commercial to high-density residential, which is 12 to 20 dwelling units per acre. Camelback 95, the proposed complex, would offer approximately 17.2 units per acre.
"The applicant is requesting a general plan amendment and rezoning near the existing Copper Falls to allow for (apartments)," Glendale Planner Dru Maynus said. "The 13.95 acre site currently consists of vacant land and has been vacant for over a decade."
Applicant representative Ed Bull of the law firm Burch & Cracchiolo showcased the previous properties that P.B. Bell had developed, including Aspera.
"This is a vacant infill site that has been designated commercial for over 13 years and has never been developed," Bulls said. "This site will offer residents plenty of shopping within walking distance and would have 46 percent open space within it."
Multiple residents spoke against the complex during the planning commission meeting.
"Our property backs up to this development and I have a couple of issues," Arlene Lichtenberger said. "Most of us in the Copper Cover area have invested over $300,000 for our homes and I am afraid this development will lower our home values."
Lichtenberger added that with the completion of 95th Avenue from Camelback Road to Maryland Avenue by University of Phoenix Stadium will bring in added traffic.
"My other concern is the added traffic from 95th Avenue that will make our roads even more congested. That, and with three-story buildings, we will all lose any view of the mountains from our homes," Lichtenberger said.
Bull said the development would offer one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments and would give more housing opportunities the city is seeking.
"There's a lot of goals and policies that we're achieving here, including providing a variety of housing types and styles and options, particularly in close proximity to the (Loop) 101 and employment and retail and other services that people can either make a short drive to or bike to, maybe even walk to," Bull said.
Maynus said a neighborhood meeting was held at Copper Canyon High School and most attendees were supportive of the project, with any concerns addressed and solved during that meeting.

A third of pupils at a Queensland indigenous college had sexually transmitted diseases when a 14-year-old boarder alleged she was gang raped by other students, the abuse royal commission has heard.
Shalom Christian College in Townsville has been under the spotlight this week at the commission over its response to claims the girl was assaulted by four boys in March 2006.
As the inquiry delved into the school's failed handling of the incident, alarming statistics about the prevalence of sexual abuse across the school were revealed.
Former principal Christopher Shirley gave evidence that he made more reports about serious sex-related incidents to authorities in one year at Shalom than in 20 years at other schools.
"In a year at Shalom ... it would probably be somewhere about five (reports) a term, 20 a year," he said.
The majority of the students had suffered sexual abuse before they arrived at school and at least 30 per cent presented with sexually transmitted diseases, he said.
That figure was among other disturbing statistics such as 90 per cent having substance abuse issues, 60 per cent suffering physical and emotional abuse and 50 per cent having scabies, the commission heard.
There was also a high level of consensual sexual relationships between students at the school, which was challenging, Mr Shirley said.
"My view was that there was a level of acceptability that students brought with them about levels of engagement of a physical/sexual nature ... that would not be supported by the community," he said.
"I'm not saying that's wrong, it's just different."
Current principal Christopher England told the commission the number of boarding students having sexual contact within the school had decreased in recent years but Shalom lacked the funding to keep boarders safe.
The college is dependent on federal government funding, mostly through ABSTUDY, and does not receive fees from parents, the commission heard.
"You don't believe that in relation to boarding houses you can provide a safe environment for your students given the current resource levels through ABSTUDY - is that the bottom line of your evidence," commissioner Robert Fitzgerald asked.
"That would sum it up, yes sir," Mr England replied.
Mr England said the school wanted to reduce the boarding student-to-staff ratio, currently at 15-to-one but funding was too tight.
"We can't get (the ratio) lower because we would be taking more money from the education bundle that we get to educate the children in classes," he said.
Mr Shirley admitted failures in his support for the girl over the rape allegations and apologised to the parents for making them feel he had not believed their daughter's claims because of rumours she was promiscuous.
Her parents told the inquiry they were aware of other stories of children being sexually abused by fellow students and having to leave the school.
"You didn't just fail my daughter, you failed a lot of other kids, their parents and the communities they come from," the girl's father said, speaking about Shalom.
