By that I mean my husband and his two brothers. Now I love my Beve, like his brothers, but when it comes to this grieving stuff, they might as well be in some movie where th protagonists go from one bad thing to a worse thing, to an even worse thing. Think John Candy and Steve Martin in "Planes, Trains and Automobiles". (Or don't, if you're like me and hate that kind of stooge-like comedy). Their way of coping with all of the upheavals in this season is to a) talk about sports; b) crack jokes; c) drive off on unrelated errands; and d) seem to pay little or no attention whatsoever. Meanwhile, I'm crying copious tears, tearing my hair out about the parents, and trying to keep all the plates in the air. Excuse me if I get a little steamed for a moment.
Now I know these men are capable of deep feelings. I've heard rumors of it from Larry's wife, seen evidence of it on Mo's cheeks, share a bed with Curly (he's curly because if he let his hair grow, it'd be just as Curly as the original!) who has sobbed deeply once or twice in our quarter century of marriage. But get them all together, as they were last Friday night, and they're liable to stand around, blocking the fire, and talking in half sentences. I suppose it's so seldom that they actually get to look people in the eyes, they don't want to waste time sitting or getting blurry-eyed from tears.
But to me, surely created on a different day of the week than such giant stooges, this is a season to hurt. To dwell in the hurting until the hurting begins to fade. To allow the sadness to sweep over me, to color the season just as frost covers the earth. I miss Beve's sister in all this. I need her to help balance out these stooges a little, to bring a little female perspective to the table as we deal with their dad and his wife. I am grateful for my sisters, who speak the same language I do, who communicate and cry and don't have to watch football games as a coping mechanism. Maybe my brothers are part of the stooge patrol as well. They certainly have all the testostrone for it.
OK, so I'm complaining. So sue me. This is a hard time, and there's nothing to be done but live through it, live through it with these three stooges and their families and hope we come out the other side still liking each other. And the truth is, we're all stooges in a way, all fumbling our way through this life, doing the best we can with what we've been given. And asking God to make up the difference. I know there are times when I'm as clumsy as they come, saying things that are insensitive, falling on my face, making a big mess of it all. But thankfully, God doesn't mind stooges. He doesn't mind one mess after another, one pratfall after another, as long as we also fall on our faces before Him, seeking His help. So these three giant stooges I share a last name with? I fall on my face and thank God for them as well. I hope they know that--all three of them. I thank God for them.
As my stooge, Curly, would say, quoting Jim Eliot, "We're just a bunch of nobodies (or just a bunch of stooges!), trying to exalt a Somebody."

The Epiphany
You could consider it an epiphany of sorts. At exactly 10:43A.M on the 20th of February, 2017 I received the mail above from Fuzu.com. Just like many other job applications I had made in the past, I had already resigned to fate probably seeing this application as one out of many that will go through the very familiar routine of rejection.
Or was the jinx broken? A sprinkling of pessimistic thoughts welled up within me as I remunerated on a phrase in the mail that read, "…the decision to interview rests with the Microsoft partner as the prospective employer". If this was a suspense-filled movie, the Directors deserved an Oscar.
Long story short, I was invited for an interview.
I was both happy and scared at the same time. When I got the above mail on the 21st of February by 9:54A.M., 535KM away from Lagos, I knew I was in a fix. Was it worth it taking the risk of going for an interview – an interview that was discouraging from the twin perspectives of distance and uncertainty? Let me not bore you with the details.
Reality Beckons
Good news is, the next day I got a congratulatory call that I was successful. Like an AC circuit, my mind pulsated between screaming and bland introspection. I was in a fix of emotional turbulence.
After collecting my offer letter dated the 27th of February, my premonition of the experiences to follow transcended what I had earlier imagined.
After collecting my offer letter, I was told to resume on the 1st of March to commence work/training both as an Intern, Software Developer in Sidmach Technologies and 'remotely', as a Technical Support Trainee in the Microsoft Interns4Afrika Programme.
My colleagues and I, on resumption were given some form of induction-related Powerpoint presentations hinged on general appearance(s), company values and standards and procedures to adhere to. This was all done under a serene atmosphere of warmth and relaxation.
Subsequently, I was introduced to the various departments viz a viz, SSD (The Software Solutions Division), the Legal Division, the Sales Division and the Human Resources Division.
My colleagues – comely they are, and I, found the introduction we were given quite friendly and enthusiastic. The enthusiasm of the staff was infectious, as it was motivating.
I was also introduced to the heads and staff of various departments – more particularly, on 2nd of March, 2017.
And finally, I was assigned a mentor, Mr. Augustine Nwagboso and was briefed by him about the demands and constraints of my job role.
It was impossible not to take note of some basic nuggets I would be listing out presently:
1. Court Rejection
Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm. – Winston Churchill
The above quote, ascribed to Winston Churchill summarizes this nugget. It sounds counterintuitive. Court rejection? Sounds stupid, but there is a lot of hidden gems you may come to discover therein.
A popular terminology in Project Management and Planning is phrased "the worst-case scenario". In other words, what, in your opinion, is the worst thing that could happen? For example, if you are going for an exam, the worst thing that could happen is that you fail! You may feel bad, but a bad score isn't in any way imprinted on your face. You are still you.
READ: 5 Sure Ways to Deal with Rejection
On that same note, if you go for a job interview, what is the worst thing that could happen? You will be rejected! You won't be slapped, or shot, or hung, except of course you choose that course.
I remember going for an interview sometime ago when, after all questions asked and answered, I was replied with the 'best' cliche of all job interviews: "we will get back to you". There was no need. That fanciful, diplomatic response was unnecessary, as I already understood the import of its true meaning. If I remember correctly, the sun seemed to burn hotter than usual. My knees wobbled in my thoroughly ironed trouser. Then I smiled and my inner self suggested to me, "why not put this rejection on your CV?". Laughing as I thought about that implausible suggestion, I got back the warmth of my true value.
The point is, appreciating the worst-case scenario ensures that you don't lose focus of your goal, your mindset, your target. Why? Allowing a temporal rejection get to you closes your eyes and blocks your mind to opportunities.
I take rejection as someone blowing a bugle in my ear to wake me up and get going, rather than retreat. – Sylvester Stallone
2. Reach for the top
A more common phrasing is "aim for the top". It sounds straightforward but really, once in a while, don't folks aim for what is on the ground? Aiming for the top only accentuates what the priority of your efforts should be on.
Within the last couple of months when the Microsoft Interns4Afrika program was advertised, I posted the links on my facebook page as well as on my blog. Suffice it to say that I had 1 like on my Facebook post. Why? My friends did not consider it an effort worth attending to. "MICROSOFT?". That is too high! I am content with that 'tiny' filling station nearby. Apologies to filling stations nearby, the point I am making is, you have what it takes to apply for the top companies. The fact that you applied in the first place shows courage and grit.
It may sound hilarious, but I regularly scout for and apply to top shots like Google, the British High Commission, etc etc. Even when I get an autoresponder email from one of their ever-bugged emails, I schedule some part of my time to read through my "rejection" mails. Haha. I'm not scared to reach for the top.
I'm sure the inquisitive ones want proof.
Yes, I am a proud recipient of the above rejection mail. Have I lost anything? Actually I have gained.
3. Be patient
It is very easy to theorize and trivialize the above nugget, especially when cliches like "the patient dog eats the fattest bone" are voiced.
Well, intuitively, patience is the willingness to adequately wait for the proper outcome of an event. So, for instance, if one is scheduled for a meeting at a venue, it is actually joblessness not patience to wait perpetually for 3 hours or more beyond the agreed-upon meeting time.
A fundamental thing to note however, is that waiting within the limits of your productivity is a great price to pay for success.
The two most powerful warriors are patience and time. – Leo Tolstoy
Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success. – Napoleon Hill
I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures. – Lao Tzu
Many of the much-aged greats discovered the secret of patience. You cannot hatch an egg by smashing it than by just being patient till it hatches.
My colleagues, and I applied since November of 2016. Some of them confessed to me that in truth, they had forgotten about the application. No, not in a care-free or nonplussed tone, but in a tone that suggested that they were ready to wait it out. We-are-in-this-together tone. And it paid off.
The next time you want to be discouraged by the feeling of passing time, pinch yourself and say "be patient".
Coming up soon:
I will be posting about "3 Nuggets to take note of for the month of April". These and many more will form a series of my Microsoft4Afrika experiences.

This post comes from Shannon Lee of partner site Improvement Center.
The emotions attached to a room in your home go beyond the furniture, personal mementos, and placement of objects. The colors in that room can also have a huge impact on your mood, and thus can affect everything you think and feel when you walk into the space.
But where to start when it comes to color? Tenecia Harris, the founder and principal designer of sweet t design studio, is regularly featured on the Travel Channel and HGTV. She has plenty to say about the way color can flavor the mood of any room in your home.
The best colors for your home
There are millions of potential colors that might look great in your home. How do you even begin to narrow down those paint chips? Fortunately, there are some colors that seem to sway the mood for most of us, and that's a great place to begin.
For the living room, Harris recommends something soothing. "Green is a great color for the living room. Similar to its blue base, it lowers stress levels and encourages relaxation, but it also has enough warmth, from its yellow base, to encourage social gatherings."
Comfortable colors also come into play in the most relaxing place of all: the bedroom. "In a recent study, blue was shown to be the best color to sleep in," Harris said. "It lowers blood pressure, heart rate and breathing rate. Finding the right shade is important. Go too dark, and it can be associated with depression. Some shades of pastel blue can be too cold to achieve that relaxing spalike feeling when used in a room with minimal natural light."
When it comes to the dining room, Harris points out that stimulating colors make a difference. "With natural daylight, red not only stimulates the appetite (hello McDonald's, Wendy's, Pizza Hut, Domino's, yummy!), but it also promotes conversation and brings people together. When seen in artificial light, the color is more muted and evokes a feeling of elegance and luxury."
The same is true for the kitchen. "Yellow is a really good color for the kitchen as its energizing and uplifting. For the same appetite stimulating reason as described in the dining room, red is also a good color for the kitchen. It's become more common over the years that the kitchen is the heart of the home, seen with open kitchen/living room plans that allow for gatherings centered in this room."
Do you have trouble getting up and moving in the morning? The bathroom colors could boost your mood. "For those of us who are not morning people, orange and yellow are two good colors for bathrooms," Harris said. "They are both cheerful and invigorating — think citrus — helping you wake up in the morning and get the day started. But if relaxing at the end of stressful days is more your goal, then the blue family is going to be the most soothing option."
Pay attention to the light
No matter which color you choose for a particular room in the house, remember that light makes a huge difference. "Color itself does not exist in a vacuum. Natural light and artificial light impact colors differently and can the change the final product dramatically," Harris said. "Red is a vibrant color. Pink is a soft color. Something that is red can look pink in bright light. To avoid selecting the wrong shade, paint a spot on all the walls in a room (or tape a paint chip on each wall) to see how light affects it at various times of the day."
A final word about color
Ultimately, the colors that belong in your home are the ones that make you happiest — even if that means breaking all the conventional advice about hues. "Though certain colors can cause strong physical and emotional responses, ultimately the best color for your space is the color you want," Harris advised. "Spend time in the room, get a sense of the light situation, and be honest with yourself, not only about how you want to use the space but how you actually will use the space."
In fact, Harris knows firsthand the thrill of choosing a color simply because it feels right. "Purple is a creative stimulant making it the worst color to sleep in and a poor choice for bedrooms, but my bedroom is a deep purple. The dark shade evokes spiritual calm, embraces me like a cocoon, and it makes me feel luxurious and regal, like the queen I am."

Inasmuch as the defendant in an action commenced in a District Court and seeking actual damages of $5,000, as well as treble damages under G. L. c. 93A, Section 9, could not have initially removed the case for trial in the Superior Court, he had the right to trial in the Superior Court following a decision of an Appellate Division, and, consequently, the defendant was not entitled to appeal to this court from that decision. [150] ABRAMS, J., concurring.
CIVIL ACTION commenced in the Waltham Division of the District Court Department on December 19, 1980.
The case was heard by C. George Anastos, J.
John J. McNaught, Jr. (Edward M. Moriarty, Jr., with him) for the defendant.
C. Donald Briggs, III, for the plaintiff.
O'CONNOR, J. The plaintiff brought this action against her landlord seeking damages for the conversion of her personal property, for wrongful eviction, and for violations of G. L. c. 93A, Section 9. The defendant filed a counterclaim for unpaid rent. The case was tried to a judge in the District Court, who found for the plaintiff in the amount of $2,300, and for the defendant, on his counterclaim, in the amount of $400. The defendant claimed a report to the Appellate Division. The Appellate Division dismissed the report, and the defendant appealed here. We dismiss the appeal.
General Laws c. 231, Section 109, as amended by St. 1975, c. 377, Sections 108, 108A, provides in part: "An appeal to the supreme judicial court shall lie from the final decision of the appellate division of any district court." "A decision of an
Page 150
Appellate Division is not final and immediate appeal to this court is not available if trial in the Superior Court is available to the party seeking the appeal." Greenhouse, Inc. v. Trans World Airlines, Inc., ante 60, 61 (1985), quoting Locke v. Slater, 387 Mass. 682 , 684 (1982). See Orasz v. Colonial Tarvern, Inc., 365 Mass. 131 , 139 (1974). Thus, if the defendant could have claimed a Superior Court trial after the decision of the Appellate Division, his appeal is not properly here.
The plaintiff's complaint sought actual damages of $5,000, an amount below the $7,500 threshold established by G. L. c. 231, Section 104, for removal to the Superior Court. Although the complaint also included a count seeking treble damages under G. L. c. 93A, Section 9, that section provides that "[t]he provisions of sections ninety-five to one hundred and ten, inclusive, of chapter two hundred and thirty-one, where applicable, shall apply to a claim under this section, except that the provisions for remand, removal and transfer shall be controlled by the amount of single damages claimed hereunder." G. L. c. 93A, Section 9 (3A), inserted by St. 1978, c. 478, Section 46. Thus, the defendant could have caused the case to be transferred to the Superior Court for a new trial within ten days after receiving notice of the Appellate Division's decision. G. L. c. 231, Section 104. The decision of the Appellate Division was therefore not a final decision, and an immediate appeal to this court is not available. Greenhouse, Inc. v. Trans World Airlines, Inc., supra at 61.
Appeal dismissed.
ABRAMS, J. (concurring). I adhere to my dissenting views as expressed in Greenhouse, Inc. v. Trans World Airlines, Inc., ante 60, 63 (1985), but accept the court's decision. Further, in this case the defendant challenges the factual findings of the judge but has failed to indicate whether the evidence before us is all the evidence bearing on the issues raised. Thus, the questions of law raised by the defendant cannot be resolved by us. See Comfort Air Syss. v. Cacopardo, 370 Mass. 255 , 259 (1976); Irving v. Bonjorno, 327 Mass. 516 , 518 (1951).

Hook-a-Gate has carried out Two OPAL surveys in the winter months within their grounds. The first survey was the Air survey on 6th December. The group used the trees within the centre grounds and although little was found on the tree trunks, a lot of the trees had the nitrogen tolerant Xanthoria and phycsia on the branches. Although most of the lichen recorded was nitrogen tolerant, a small amount of Hypogymnia, the nitrogen sensitive species, was found on one of the tree branches. The group also carried out the Climate survey on 13th December which was so cold and frosty some of the bubbles had started to freeze. Pupils did well carrying out the activities in such harsh conditions and more sessions are planned for 2013 so they continue their OPAL journey.

Run like the wind without the hassle
The Dublin Tunnel will host a 10k Underground Run on Sunday, March 26 at 9.30am, marking the 10th anniversary of its opening. The event is a collaboration between Focus Ireland, Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII), Egis, Dublin City Council, Dublin Port Company and Elite Event management to raise €150,000 for Focus Ireland's work to combat and prevent homelessness.
Apart from contributing to a good cause, there is at least one other good reason to take part. Everywhere in Ireland gets wind and it can be the bane of runners throughout the country. There are multiple reasons why running in the wind creates such a tough experience.
However, you won't have any of those issues at the Underground Run in the Dublin Tunnel. The Dublin Tunnel is Ireland's longest tunnel (4.5k) - lots of people know that. It's also Ireland's longest wind-tunnel. Not as many people know that!
The Dublin Tunnel has 16 jet fans that run the Tunnel's ventilation system and are capable of changing the air within minutes.
On race day, the Dublin Tunnel will close at 5.30am. All traffic and people will be removed from both bores of the tunnel. Then, all 16 of those jet fans in will be turned right up to push all the stale air out and get some quality sea air flowing through the bores. Each one of these fans are powered by large aircraft jet engines, which create quite the noise.
Before the race, the fans will be turned right down. Quietness will be restored. Then, as the race starts, the music will be turned up and the lasers will light the way. At least one fan in each tunnel will be left on to provide continuous airflow and cooling air for our participants from the start of the run to the end. The airflow will be with the runners throughout as they make their way north, exit the bore, turn, enter the next bore and then make their way south.
No wet Atlantic rain, no snow from the north and no nasty headwinds! You'll be protected and entertained underground as you breeze through the Dublin Tunnel on March 26 .
As the tunnel is 4.5km long, competitors will be exposed to the elements for approximately 1 km of the 10km race.

Do you find this magnificent? Ceiling lamps emulating the heavens, which will embellish your interiors and really change your daily life, is there anything better against stress, seasonal depressions? This is the peak of decoration: nature. You will not find anything better.
The images of heaven, taken by high-end photographers, will offer to you and your guests a real virtual window that will leave a strong impression. We have a catalogue of images at your disposal.
Besides being decorative, our LED ceiling lights serve as powerful and reliable lights. The lifetime of the LEDs is estimated at 20 years for a daily use of 7 hours. If you want to read a more detailed article about the LED technology, you can find it here.
In financial terms, it is certainly not the cheapest ceiling light you can find on the market. But there will be nothing like it if you want to revitalize a room without having to do a lot of work. No need to redo the painting.
The images do not flicker because they are printed on fabrics, they are not screened, but you can replace them without constraint.
If you want to make a custom image or with a particular theme (children or others …), we can carry it out with a small surcharge.
Our ceiling chandelier works only with LED technology: no bulbs to change, no maintenance to perform.
We have developed a design, luminous board to better emulate the daylight.
The frame is only 5 cm thick, it will never be the cause of problems or imperfections.
The images have been designed and built to provide you with a unique realism effect, thus to have a visual comfort and indoor lighting that have never been like this before.
Frames constitute an important part of the luminous board because they are visible and condition its aesthetics. They will be discreet and are intended only to highlight the sky image.
Satisfaction is one of our priorities. We stay tuned, even out of warranty.
LEDs are the future of lighting, they are becoming more and more popular on the market.
LEDs are the future of lighting, they are becoming more and more popular on the market.
It only requires a simple 30 minutes' procedure for the smallerS frames, and about 1 hour for the bigger ones. For the frames ranging from 60×60 cm to 180×60 cm, you only need 4 screws. The frames conceal behind a power cable that will allow you to connect the ceiling light to the power supply of the house. You only have to install 4 screws, and connect 2 positive and negative cables, just like on a classic luminous board. The frames should be installed in ceilings, but can also be suspended by metal cables whose length can be varied. Our metallic cables are usually 1 meter long, but you can cut them. You can install our luminous boards in BA13 false ceilings, however, it will be necessary to indicate us this before the order. We do not carry out the installation, but if you cannot or do not want to do it yourself, any electrician or installer, or even your little son can do it without any constraint.
Also the video below you will see a reporting made on "Télématin" about us. It was done some time ago, but it will allow you to see more precisely how to perform an installation. You should know that on video, the total size of the two combined ceiling lights was 180×90 cm, and at the time we registered this video our frames were 7 cm deep, instead of 5 cm now, and also that the LEDs are currently integrated to frames, on the edges, not at the bottom. We also made a funny article describing how the filming of this video took place.
Our lights are guaranteed for 2 years, all the parts are included in the warranty. We can extend the warranty if requested. We have had no return so far. However, if that were to happen, we would do our best to fix the problem.
We adapt to the environment.
You can see them by clicking "Buy Online" or simply by clicking on this link:
We can custom your order, with the branches of your choice, the position of your choice. You can also give us your image, provided it is of excellent quality. Here you will see an article describing how was achieved the realization of the images.
The prices you see below include VAT, delivery, the entire product is included in this price. We do carry on the installation. You will not have any surprises during the purchasing phase.
If you want to change the ambiance, once the product has been purchased, here is the price for an extra fabric with a printed image. Changing the fabric is a procedure that takes no more than 2 minutes.
Payment is made through the famous PayPal, money transfer, you can make a payment via credit card, even if you do not have an account. With PayPal there is nothing to worry about: if you do not receive the product, you are refunded without constraint.
After clicking the button "buy online" at the bottom right of the page, you will be redirected to several steps:
The delivery time varies depending on the stock we have. If we have the product in stock, the delivery takes a week, otherwise it can take up to 4 weeks.
The delivery is carried out by a transporter, Kuhene Nagel's type, if you are not at home upon their arrival, they will set up an appointment with you with the day and time you want. An installation manual will be provided together with the package and the invoice. We are at your disposal if you need any advice. We do not deliver at relay point.
We recommend you to not bend or fold the frames, especially for large dimensions, because inside lie LED circuits, which are not flexible. Indeed, regarding large dimensions' panels, they can bend slightly so it is important to always keep them flat.
Do not disassemble the panel or touch the electronic circuits that are connected to 220V directly.
It is possible to install our products in the bathrooms, but we do not recommend it for safety reasons. The circuits are watertight, our light fixtures are naturally connected to the ground, but we are never protected from any incident or error, so we prefer not to recommend this type of installation.
You are professional and you want to install our ceiling lights in a false ceiling type 60×60 cm, or you are an installer/architect and want to carry out an installation for a customer? You can buy sconces 60×60 cm directly on this page or write us on our contact page, we will let you know our prices.

Zonghui HAN
General Surgeon
Dr. Han is from China. He studied first at the Jinzhou Medical College (Liaoning province) and then completed his medical degree at the Nanjing Railway Medical College. He was also a general surgery fellow at an affiliate hospital of the Chengde Medical College (Hebei province).
Dr. Han did his residency in the Department of Surgery at Yebaishou Hospital (Liaoning province). After completing his medical degree, he became the Director of the Department of Surgery at Yebaishou Hospital. He then became a general surgery fellow at Tongren Hospital (Beijing). He worked for two years as an attending surgeon in the Department of Surgery at Wangjing Hospital (Beijing). Since 2003, Dr. Han has been working in the BJU Surgery Department.
Dr. Han has had more than 20 years of experience working on more than a thousand cases. He has been abroad many times, including to the US, England, and Canada, for numerous academic conferences about surgery, enabling him to do research on state-of-the-art diagnosis and treatment methods for surgical diseases and on new progress in surgery. He is well-versed in outpatient surgery, such as minimally invasive radical surgery on varieties of paronychia, superficial tumor resection, and small burn wound treatment. In addition, he has accumulated extensive experience in the diagnosis and treatment of colon, rectal, and anal diseases, including minimally invasive treatment of fistula, internal hemorrhoids, external hemorrhoids, mixed hemorrhoids, anus nipple hypertrophy, intestinal polyps, and perianal skin tags, as well as repair of the external shape of the anus. Additionally, he is expert at applying the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids (PPH) in the treatment of circular prolapsed hemorrhoids. Through circular resection of the rectum mucus membrane and submucosal tissues, he can effectively treat serious prolapsed internal hemorrhoids without affecting the normal physiological function of anal cushions, which greatly reduces the surgery time and postoperative pain.
Dr. Han has published articles on gastrointestinal surgeries in Chinese medical journals.

SANE supporter Stuart Green ran the Brooks Snowdonia Marathon on 28th October and raised over £2,500. He completed the demanding and spectacular route, encircling Snowdon (Wales' and England's highest peak) in 4 hours and 11 minutes.
Speaking to us after the event, he said:
'I've run five marathons before but had never attempted anything like Snowdonia – it is a brilliant event. The views were stunning, the course was challenging, the supporters were enthusiastic and all of the organisers and other runners were just so friendly. We were lucky with the weather too – mild temperatures, light rain and no wind made it enjoyable conditions for running. It was just an amazing day!'
Stuart, who is a member of Royston Runners in North Hertfordshire, decided to raise money for SANE as he's seen a number of friends and colleagues suffering from poor mental health in recent years.
'I think the work that SANE is doing is invaluable. As well as providing care and initiating research, it's the efforts to raise awareness and combat stigma about mental illness that is so critical.'
It's a much bigger problem than many realise. I'm proud to work for Accenture, an organisation with a strong mental health agenda and an ambition to promote an atmosphere where all employees feel they can talk about mental health as openly and honestly as people talk about physical health. Our 'Mental Health Allies' help get the message across that it's okay to talk about mental health, and they know what to do if they or a colleague need support.'
Stuart used JustGiving to support his fundraising efforts and it was great to see some of his donors being so open about their own experiences. You can find his page here.
'I was particularly touched to get a £20 donation from a complete stranger who'd found my page via Twitter. He or she said it was a cause that was especially close to their heart as they suffer from bipolar.'
Look out for Stuart's photos on SANE's Twitter and Instagram.
If you have been inspired by Stuart's story and would like to fundraise for better mental health, we'd love to hear from you! From fun run to marathon, quiz to karaoke, there's an idea to suit everyone. Email firstname.lastname@example.com or call 0203 805 1790.

They're getting better and better
Do you think there is room for a tad more sharpening and perhaps some added contrast?
I'd go for b&w, Mike.
Thank you Willie!
Just noticed that I misidentified a couple of craters in the image I posted a couple days back. In this one, however, Copernicus is very visible at the 3 O'clock position, and the two prominent ones at the top are Aristoteles and Eudoxus. (accuracy counts......)
Love the final version of this terrific shot Mike, it looks like 'Moon Fever' is spreading throughout the Forum Thanks for the info too

What's a cover letter?
A cover letters primary purpose is to grab the attention of whoever you've written to. If you're applying for a job, you want them to read your CV and your cover letter should encourage them to do so. Why are you so amazing? Why are you exceptional? Why should they read more? Why should they consider you?
You shouldn't think of a cover letter as being part of your CV - it is similar to the mission statement or personal statement in your CV in that it's primary intention is to get people to spend a few minutes more on your CV/Resume or job application than anyone elses.
If you are still wondering "what is a covering letter?" then you should think of the blurb on the back of books - they don't give away the content, they hint at it and make big news of any great stuff other people have said, any awards they have had, any great reviews they have received etc. Your cover letter should be similar - it should highlight the biggest reasons you can think of for why people should consider your application/CV/resume.
What really is a cover letter?
Cover letters exist in this day and age thanks to the inordinate amount of job applications companies receive for positions they advertise. It is becoming more and more impossible for employers to read every CV/Resume/job application and a cover letter is that little bit of extra effort you can give to increase the chances of your application actually being considered. Bear in mind that for any one position companies can often receive hundreds, if not thousands, of applications. A great cover letter will never guarantee a job but what it will do is significantly increase the chances that your application is actually considered.
Consider this carefully - you're trying to get your application to the short-list out of thousands of other applications so you need to get personal with the person who is filtering the applications. Convince them that you have lived your entire life to work in this position, or that you have some new profound experience which makes you ideal for this position, or rely on your knowledge and understanding of the company and role to convince them to put your application onto the shortlist.
This means you have to get personal - you must figure out who are the people who are going to receive your cover letter - make a phone call if you have to prior to sending your cover letter. If it's an agent you're dealing with, your cover letter should be tailored towards how much success you've had at winning interviews you're put into - agents make money if you get placed so the more you can convince them that you WILL get placed, the likelier you are to be on their shortlist.
If, on the other hand, your cover letter is being sent to the actual company you will hopefully be employed by then what's in your cover letter should change significantly - you should now tailor it to the employer and explain how much you admire their company, who you know from their company, what respect you have for their company and how your experience/qualifications/talents/whatever are aligned with what you believe the company is trying to achieve with this role.
You don't want to put too much sales nonsense in your cover letter - remember, it's real human beings reading it - but you still shouldn't hold back from being extravagant - if you can claim you've been expert in this role since you were a child then do it! It may make them laugh, but it will still make them more likely to read and consider your application and read your CV/Resume.
Hopefully this helps answer the question of what really is a cover letter - I know there are plenty of people out there who feel resentful towards this kind of stuff even existing but if you understand the numbers of people applying for roles then it should be easy to see why they exist and how you can capitalise by making a cover letter which makes your CV actually be read. Whether you actually then get hired is up to the content of your CV/Resume of course...

With over 4,000 total acres and 111 trails — and two major mountains (Lincoln Peak and Mt. Ellen) — Sugarbush is a must for New England ski fanatics. The resort cranks out artificial snow on 70 percent of its terrain, but it preserves specific areas for natural powder, such as Castlerock at Lincoln Peak, known for narrow and curving New England–style expert trails. And since this is New England, it has three top-notch terrain parks, including Progression Park, which has a series of rails, boxes, and jumps designed for entry-level freestyle skiers. Full day tickets cost $84 midweek and $91 on weekends and holidays.
Where to Stay: Want serious new England charm at a phenomenally reasonable rate? Look no further than the Hostel Tevere, which is situated in a 1860s farmhouse less than five miles from Sugarbush, and offers beds for only $40 in winter. Co-owner Sarah Wright cooks up four-course meals for $20, and her husband, Giles Smith, runs the bar, which has live music every Friday with a rotating cast of local jazz, soul, and blue grass bands.
Inside Tip: After a long day on the slopes, head to the Sugarbush Health and Recreation Center — daily memberships are only $17 — where you can relax in their hot tubs, steam rooms, and dry-heat saunas.

Making another extremely complex surgery possible
Case History
Dr. Ashwani Maichand Senior Consultant Joint Replacement Surgery at Minomax Knee and Shoulder Clinic was dealing with the case of curved Femur bone which needed to be straightened within a complex procedure.
The Need
The entire procedure included a lot of work on the femur bone, the largest bone in the human body. This needed to be a perfect replication as everything was to be planned according to the composition and density of the actual femur bone.
End Result
The Pre Surgical procedure ended up providing a lot of valuable information and reducing the surgery time by atleast 40%. The main surgery was a resounding success and a testament to the ability of our Pre-surgical solution.
Dr. Ashwani Maichand Senior Consultant Joint Replacement Surgery at Minomax Knee and Shoulder Clinic contacted us to use our innovative pre-surgical solution for a complex Femur bone operation.
The Procedure
As soon as Dr. Maichand shared the data through our secure servers, we converted the data into a 3D model which was 3D printed in record time in one single piece using duper Pro series of 3D Printers.
Apart from providing myriads of information, the pre-surgical procedure gave key details like the inner composition and the density of the femur bone. At the end of the entire procedure Dr. Maichand had a complete picture on how to commence with the surgery.
Using our proprietary technology for Custom 3D Printing 3D Model
Data Sharing
Once Dr Maichand shared the MRI and CT data, the 3D model was prepared through our proprietary 3D conversion. It accounts for the complete integrity of the 3D model. We had a 3D model ready now which was duly verified by the doctors.
3D Printing
A Femur bone is 26% of a person's height. 3D Printing such a large and curved structure was only made possible by duper XCEL range of printers. The dimensions and composition were an exact replication of an actual femur bone.
Pre Surgical Procedure
Dr Maichand commenced with the pre-surgical session to gather all they key elements and information that would be extremely helpful in saving a life. The rehearsal was an astounding success with it revealing important information like which angle to cut the bone and how to drill through it.
- Extensive planning through a mock surgery.
- Availability and understanding of all surgical implants beforehand.
- Understanding where to implement the contours and how much of the bone structure to be sawed and drilled through.
- Using the pre-surgical model as a fully realized 3D representation during the main surgery.

Joe Ostman
- School
Central Michigan
- Position
- Defensive End
- Major
- Business Management
Joe Ostman carries a 3.77 GPA as a business management major. He was awarded the Dick Enberg Scholar-Athlete Award in September and is a finalist for the Bill Boyden Leadership Award, which honors the best male and female student-athletes at CMU. He also received the inaugural Dustin Preston Leadership Award, introduced to honor a member of the football team who shines on and off the field.
Ostman was chosen as a co-captain by his teammates. He grew up in the small tourist town of Mackinaw City at the tip of the Lower Peninsula in Michigan, and he went to high school in St. Ignace, the southern-most city in the Upper Peninsula. That meant his commute to school included crossing five miles over the Mackinac Bridge. It was a life far removed from the large Class A schools throughout the Lower Peninsula. It also meant that even as a three-time state wrestling champion and a high school football career where he recorded more than 400 tackles, he had to work harder to attract Division I offers.
Ostman also regularly volunteers to take part in community events, and he is an unquestioned leader on the football team in terms of work ethic.
When Ostman takes part with Special Olympians each summer on campus, he is fully engaged with the athletes and volunteers. He was that way when CMU helped launch renovations at the Eagle Village, a home for disadvantaged youth, earlier this year. He is a quality mentor to youth at football camps, and he even helped out at an annual middle school dance in Mount Pleasant. He also is a regular on visits to the Gleaners Community Food Bank.
In 2016 Ostman started all 13 games at defensive end and was named to the All-Mid-American Conference Second Team Defense. He was CMU's Co-Defensive Player of the Year after he recorded 69 tackles and led CMU with nine sacks. He also had 13.5 tackles for a loss and forced two fumbles. For his career, Ostman entered his senior season with 160 tackles, 26 tackles for a loss and 14 sacks in 41 games.
Three games into the 2017 season, Ostman had 12 tackles—three for a loss of yards—one sack and two quarterback hurries.

A biomarker may be a molecule secreted by a tumor or a specific response of the body to the presence of cancer.G-CSF factor stem-loop destabilising elementSimon–Ehrlich wager: Julian L. Simon and Paul Ehrlich entered in a widely followed scientific wager in 1980, betting on a mutually agreed-upon measure of resource scarcity over the decade leading up to 1990.P53: Tumor protein p53, also known as p53, cellular tumor antigen p53 (UniProt name), phosphoprotein p53, tumor suppressor p53, antigen NY-CO-13, or transformation-related protein 53 (TRP53), is any isoform of a protein encoded by homologous genes in various organisms, such as TP53 (humans) and Trp53 (mice). This homolog (originally thought to be, and often spoken of as, a single protein) is crucial in multicellular organisms, where it prevents cancer formation, thus, functions as a tumor suppressor.Children's Cancer and Leukaemia GroupTumor suppressor gene: A tumor suppressor gene, or antioncogene, is a gene that protects a cell from one step on the path to cancer. When this gene mutates to cause a loss or reduction in its function, the cell can progress to cancer, usually in combination with other genetic changes.Neurooncology: Neuro-oncology is the study of brain and spinal cord neoplasms, many of which are (at least eventually) very dangerous and life-threatening (astrocytoma, glioma, glioblastoma multiforme, ependymoma, pontine glioma, and brain stem tumors are among the many examples of these). Among the malignant brain cancers, gliomas of the brainstem and pons, glioblastoma multiforme, and high-grade (highly anaplastic) astrocytoma are among the worst.Nude mouseCancer/testis antigen family 45, member a5Angiostasis: Angiostasis is the strict regulation by the body over creation of new blood vessels, which is the normal state (homeostasis) for adult humans. The opposite state of angiostasis is angiogenesis, or the state of generating new blood vessels, as happens after injury, and during tumor growth.MinC: The MinC protein is one of three proteins encoded by the minB operon and which is required to generate pole to pole oscillations prior to bacterial cell division as a means of specifying the midzone of the cell. This function is achieved by preventing the formation of the divisome Z-ring around the poles.Typical pulmonary carcinoid tumour: Typical pulmonary carcinoid tumour is a subtype of pulmonary carcinoid tumour. It is an uncommon low-grade malignant lung mass that is most often in the central airways of the lung.Adenocarcinoma of the lung: Adenocarcinoma of the lung (pulmonary adenocarcinoma) is a common histological form of lung cancer that contains certain distinct malignant tissue architectural, cytological, or molecular features, including gland and/or duct formation and/or production of significant amounts of mucus.Oncotype DX Colon Cancer AssayAntileukemic drug: Antileukemic drugs, anticancer drugs that are used to treat one or more types of leukemia, include:Breast cancer classification: Breast cancer classification divides breast cancer into categories according to different schemes, each based on different criteria and serving a different purpose. The major categories are the histopathological type, the grade of the tumor, the stage of the tumor, and the expression of proteins and genes.Dorte Juul Jensen: Dorte Juul Jensen is a senior scientist and head of the Center for Fundamental Research: Metal Structures in Four Dimensions and Materials Research Division, Risø DTU National Laboratory for Sustainable Energy, Roskilde, Denmark. Risø operates under the auspices of the Danish Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation, researching a wide range of technologies and training Ph.Mature messenger RNA: Mature messenger RNA, often abbreviated as mature mRNA is a eukaryotic RNA transcript that has been spliced and processed and is ready for translation in the course of protein synthesis. Unlike the eukaryotic RNA immediately after transcription known as precursor messenger RNA, it consists exclusively of exons, with all introns removed.Ovarian Cancer National Alliance: The Ovarian Cancer National Alliance is an advocacy organization for women with ovarian cancer in the United States. To advance the interests of women with ovarian cancer, the organization advocates at a national level for increases in research funding for the development of an early detection test, improved health care practices, and life-saving treatment protocols.Monoclonal antibody therapyRNA transfection: RNA transfection is the process of deliberately introducing RNA into a living cell. RNA can be purified from cells after lysis or synthesized from free nucleotides either chemically, or enzymatically using an RNA polymerase to transcribe a DNA template.Metastatic liver disease: A liver metastasis is a malignant tumor in the liver that has spread from another organ affected by cancer. The liver is a common site for metastatic disease because of its rich, dual blood supply (the liver receives blood via the hepatic artery and portal vein).Kidney tumour: Kidney tumours (or kidney tumors), also known as renal tumours, are tumours, or growths, on or in the kidney. These growths can be benign or malignant (cancerous).Flow cytometry: In biotechnology, flow cytometry is a laser-based, biophysical technology employed in cell counting, cell sorting, biomarker detection and protein engineering, by suspending cells in a stream of fluid and passing them by an electronic detection apparatus. It allows simultaneous multiparametric analysis of the physical and chemical characteristics of up to thousands of particles per second.Haptotaxis: Haptotaxis (from Greek ἅπτω (hapto, "touch, fasten") and τάξις (taxis, "arrangement, order")) is the directional motility or outgrowth of cells, e.g.Escheriosome: Escheriosomes are liposomes prepared from polar lipids extracted from Escherichia coli. Such kinds of delivery vehicles have been shown to elicit high cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses.Targeted therapy of lung cancer: Targeted therapy of lung cancer refers to using agents specifically designed to selectively target molecular pathways responsible for, or that substantially drive, the malignant phenotype of lung cancer cells, and as a consequence of this (relative) selectivity, cause fewer toxic effects on normal cells.PancreatoblastomaSquamous-cell carcinomaTemporal analysis of products: Temporal Analysis of Products (TAP), (TAP-2), (TAP-3) is an experimental technique for studyingTyrosine kinase: A tyrosine kinase is an enzyme that can transfer a phosphate group from ATP to a protein in a cell. It functions as an "on" or "off" switch in many cellular functions.Giant-cell glioblastoma: The giant-cell glioblastoma is a histological variant of glioblastoma, presenting a prevalence of bizarre, multinucleated (more than 20 nuclei) giant (up to 400 μm diameter) cells.ImmunotherapyABCD rating: ABCD rating, also called the Jewett staging system or the Whitmore-Jewett staging system, is a staging system for prostate cancer that uses the letters A, B, C, and D.Tumor progression: Tumor progression is the third and last phase in tumor development. This phase is characterised by increased growth speed and invasiveness of the tumor cells.Gustav GaudernackColes PhillipsSilent mutation: Silent mutations are mutations in DNA that do not significantly alter the phenotype of the organism in which they occur. Silent mutations can occur in non-coding regions (outside of genes or within introns), or they may occur within exons.Bone tumorConcentration effect: In the study of inhaled anesthetics, the concentration effect is the increase in the rate that the Fa(alveolar concentration)/Fi(inspired concentration) ratio rises as the alveolar concentration of that gas is increased. In simple terms, the higher the concentration of gas administered, the faster the alveolar concentration of that gas approaches the inspired concentration.Symmetry element: A symmetry element is a point of reference about which symmetry operations can take place. In particular, symmetry elements can be centers of inversion, axes of rotation and mirror planes.Start point (yeast): The Start checkpoint is a major cell cycle checkpoint in yeast. The Start checkpoint ensures irreversible cell-cycle entry even if conditions later become unfavorable.Immunoperoxidase: Immunoperoxidase is a type of immunostain used in molecular biology, medical research, and clinical diagnostics. In particular, immunoperoxidase reactions refer to a sub-class of immunohistochemical or immunocytochemical procedures in which the antibodies are visualized via a peroxidase-catalyzed reaction.Cell adhesionWorld Lymphoma Awareness Day: World Lymphoma Awareness Day (WLAD) is held on September 15 every year and is a day dedicated to raising awareness of lymphoma, an increasingly common form of cancer. It is a global initiative hosted by the Lymphoma Coalition (LC), a non-profit network organisation of 63 lymphoma patient groups from 44 countries around the world.Fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinomaGross pathology: Gross pathology refers to macroscopic manifestations of disease in organs, tissues, and body cavities. The term is commonly used by anatomical pathologists to refer to diagnostically useful findings made during the gross examination portion of surgical specimen processing or an autopsy.Lymphovascular invasionAtypical teratoid rhabdoid tumorStem cell theory of aging: The stem cell theory of aging is a new theory which was formulated by several scientists and which postulates that the aging process is the result of the inability of various types of stem cells to continue to replenish the tissues of an organism with functional differentiated cells capable of maintaining that tissue's (or organ's) original function.

Among the things that came easiest to me during my "Benedictine Experience" (in spite of what a lot of folks thought when they heard about it) was taking and keeping a vow of silence.
Part of it's ease comes from my being an introvert. Yes, I know, it's hard for many to believe. "You get up there every Sunday and preach!," they'll tell – something, I guess, that puts me up there with dancing with a lamp shade on my head. My understanding of introversion and extroversion is informed, though, not by what I do in public but by how I "recharge" when I am done. Extroverts, I was taught in seminary, recharge their drained batteries by being with people… while introverts recharge their batteries by being alone. At the end of a long, hard week, you see, I find myself enjoying silence and solitude.
Used to be I felt guilty about this: I mean, a pastor should just want to be with people, shouldn't he (or she)? Then, I remembered that Jesus often found a lonely place apart. It's helped me to accept the way I am wired.
Of course, opposites attract. Kathy, you see, in an extrovert. Not so surprisingly, we can go to the same family reunion and Kathy can say "boy, when can we do that again!" while I am sighing under my breath, "I sure am glad we got that over with!" It's something I have to be mindful of as Friday approaches. What's good for the goose is not necessary what the gander needs!
Anyway, back to the vow of silence…
Yes, in some ways it came naturally to this introvert. In still other ways, it was refreshing – freeing me to look and listen to "life"… and helping me to form thoughts that really might be sharing. I'm mindful of Henri Nouwen, analyzing the downside of what he calls "our wordy world": "There was a time not too long ago without radios and televisions, stop signs, yield signs, merge signs, bumper stickers, and the ever-present announcements indicating price increases or special sales. There was a time without the advertisements which now cover whole cities with words. Recently I was driving through Los Angeles, and suddenly I had the strange sensation of driving through a huge dictionary. Wherever I looked there were words trying to take my eyes from the road. They said, 'Use me, take me, buy me, drink me, smell me, touch me, kiss me, sleep with me.' In such a world who can maintain respect for words?" (The Way of the Heart)
I'm mindful, as well, of what Dad used to say: "God's given us two eyes, two ears, and one mouth… maybe it's His way of saying we ought to look and listen twice as much as we talk!"
Of course, the "vow" does not eliminate all talk. There was "spiritual direction" and time for "sacred readings" during mealtime and points at which we could ask questions as we engage topics related to "Benedictine Spirituality." Far from being a call to complete silence, then, the "vow" was a commitment to meaningful words.
And, as I moved forward (even until today), I find myself wanting to talk less… and listen and look better.
St. Benedict and his followers remind us that there's plenty of wisdom in the old words at the railroad crossing – wisdom that goes well beyond our physical being, wisdom that penetrates to our best as spiritual and social beings: "Stop, look, and listen!"

The late, great, legendary filmmaker George A. Romero had three children, and now two of of his children are working on their own zombie projects. While his son George Cameron Romero will be adding to the horror sub-genre created by the Romero patriarch with RISE OF THE LIVING DEAD, daughter Tina Romero (who had a cameo in LAND OF THE DEAD) is putting together a project called QUEENS OF THE DEAD.
A DJ (she works as DJ TRx) and dance enthusiast, Tina Romero will be making her feature directorial debut with QUEENS, which is about
the zombie apocalypse, seen through the eyes of the patrons at a drag nightclub.
Romero says her father gave her his blessing to delve into the zombie world, and that they had talked about the project at length. She describes QUEENS OF THE DEAD as
a fusion of two huge parts of my world: zombies and Gay nightlife. It's a tribute to my father as well as my entrée into the genre he grandfathered. I can't say too much yet, but what I can tell you is that this film will have all the hallmarks of a George A. Romero classic: farce, politics, heroes, assholes, and most importantly, herds of silly and slow moving walkers that you can't help but love. But I'm doing it Tina-style, and bringing the glitter, choreography, queers & queens."
Before she gets to that feature, Romero is also working on a horror web series with writer/producer Robert Tinnell and her father's frequent collaborator, special effects master Tom Savini. There isn't much information available about the web series yet, but it is a collaboration between George A. Romero's filmmaking program and Savini's makeup effects program at the Douglas Education Center. Romero, Savini, and Tinnell are all working as directors on the series.
The first short being shot for the webseries is said to involve "magic tricks, violence, revenge, and horror in the style of a silent film". Actor Jason Baker described the short as "OLDBOY shot as a silent film starring Lon Chaney Sr."
We'll keep you informed on both the web series and QUEENS OF THE DEAD as they move forward. I think it's great that Romero's children are following him into filmmaking, and I'm very interested in seeing how these projects turn out.
Had a blast being directed by @thetomsavini for a new web series. Imagine Oldboy shot as a silent film starring Lon Chaney Sr. It's violent AF!!! by Robert Tinnell with episodes directed by Tinnell , @thetomsavini, & George A. Romero's insanely talented daughter @TINAROMERO pic.twitter.com/n0NWa1P7sq— Jason Baker (@bakingjason) January 15, 2018
