At nearly 29,000, pelican population strong at North Dakota wildlife refuge
BISMARCK, N.D. — The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service says nearly 29,000 American white pelicans have returned to nest in south central North Dakota.
Biologists say the nesting colony at Chase Lake National Wildlife Refuge is the largest in North America.
Biologist Brandon Oksendahl says the number of breeding adults at the refuge is down slightly from last year but it's still among the highest on record.
A record 35,466 birds were counted in 2000.
The white pelicans are among the largest birds in North America, measuring 6 feet from bill to tail. They normally arrive at the refuge north of Medina in early April.
The birds usually stay at the refuge through September, raising their young and feasting on fish and foot-long salamanders from small ponds in the area.

Sowing seeds
Congratulations on taking the steps to be a home gardener.
I generally sow my seeds in trays using seed raising mix. This gives them a head start and you can control the amount of water they get in comparison with growing in the garden. There are exceptions though. Carrots, radishes and most root crops should be sown directly in the garden, they dont transplant.
The size of the seed determines how it is sown. Some seeds are barely
visible to the naked eye, this doesnt mean they arent any
good it just is what the plant produces. I have had several people email
me when they buy a bag of seeds that look like dust. They will grow.
Planting your seeds to deep may cause the germination to fail.
Keep your seed trays moist but not over watered, I use a spray bottle
with a fine mist to spray them. This helps to keep the soil moist not
wet, without disturbing the seeds. Never allow your seed tray to dry out
or become waterlogged
When your seeds start to germinate you need to keep an eye out for slugs,
snails and other pests.
Planning your garden is important, making sure you plant thing that are tall away from the smaller crops, as these will cause shade and prevent the smaller crops getting the sun they need.
Make sure you know what type of space your plants need. Check if your tomatoes are compact bush type, large plants or vines. All these things are important when planting your garden.
There are many pests that love your veges more than you do and can strip a plant as quickly as they grow. I dont use any chemicals in my garden and make my own pests sprays and fertilizers ( see my hints and tips page)
Some seeds are better if they are soaked before planting this aids germination.
When sowing carrots I put a tsp of ground coffee granules( not powder)
to every tsp of carrot seed, this not only helps spread out your carrots
but the carrot grub in the soil does not like the smell of the coffee
and will leave your carrots alone.

Homeowners wait all year to open their pools, but how well-kept do they maintain them once they're opened? With a morning or nightly dip, that's a lot of contamination going into the water. With that in mind, how often should it be changed?
Under normal circumstances, the answer to the question should be: never. In fact, trying to drain your own pool can lead to changes or damage to the structure of your pool, or worse, you could end up risking your own personal safety. While the water in your pool can be changed, it should only be done by a professional.
Letting the chemicals to the work
Most chemicals available for pools are disinfectants and sanitizers that prevent bacteria from multiplying and also plant growth from things like algae. Chlorine is the most common one because it's cheap and easy to use, although environmentally friendly alternatives exist. That's why it's so important to maintain a certain PH balance in the pool.
Tip: on a sunny day, the light can speed up the breakdown of chlorine, so check your pool more frequently to maintain the right PH.
Have your pool cleaned regularly
A weekly cleaning is recommended as it prevents detritus from floating around or getting stuck in parts of the pool that should remain clear. Remember, as organic materials are exposed to air and water, they tend to break down, making it harder to clean, often instead spreading it across the surface.
It's likely that all the water in your pool is not the same as it was when it was first filled. The reason for this is simple: evaporation and precipitation.
During the day, as the air warms up, the water from the surface of the pool evaporates into the air. When it rains, new water refills the pool and continues to do so even as the excess is siphoned off the sides. On a general summer, you won't have to worry about how sanitary the water is in your pool because it's been cycling through nature on its own throughout the season.
What about TDS?
Total Dissolved Solids describes solids that are invisible to the eye and can't be removed using traditional methods, such as skimming the pool. Usually that count is low, especially for pools that have been regularly cleaned. However it is possible for material to accumulate over time. For most people, this isn't a concern but if you'd like to have that checked, a TDS of over 1400 may not leave you with many options.
The only time there would be a need to change your pool water urgently before using would be if a small animal was found deceased in the pool. Unfortunately in rural areas this isn't uncommon when pools are left uncovered at night. If you find yourself in this situation, call Solda Pools and our team will be happy to assist!

Posted on: August 07 2015
Are you looking for new and innovative ways to ensure your business stands out from the crowd? Or to make your brand more memorable for customers and clients? If so, branded confectionery is the perfect tool for creating positive brand recognition and promoting your business.
Branded sweets are a unique method of marketing and promoting your brand and come in a huge range of different shapes and forms to suit every business and budget. For example, small sweets such as Branded Boiled Sweets, are perfect for giving away to potential customers or clients as a takeaway (or eat on the spot!) item that is informative, tasty and memorable. Choose the colour, flavour, shape and wrapper to create a sweet that is truly unique and will ensure that your brand sticks in their mind and they will then associate it with that delicious treat. Other great branded sweets perfect for giveaways include Customised Rock Pieces, Branded Sweet Bags or even Branded Fortune Cookies with your own message hidden inside.
Branded confectionery is also a great way to create positive brand recognition with other brands and businesses. Our range of business gifts are a fun way to incentivize larger orders or to impress a company and put a big smile on their faces.

One of the reasons branded confectionery is so effective is because of the emotional connections it brings a client or customer.

Trigger these happy memories with a Branded Chocolate Bar or a Printed Biscuit and they will only think good things of your brand. Why not choose coloured sweets to match the colour of your logo to make them even more effective?

Double-Jointed & Popular: The Bv Family of Infantry Support Vehicles
July 26/17: BAE Systems has teamed with Italian firm Goriziane Group SpA to offer joint support of the BvS10 Beowulf armored all-terrain vehicle (ATV). Gorizioni Group, who have already worked with BAE on the older BV206 ATV, are specialists in the engineering and maintenance of vehicles and other heavy equipment, and this extended agreement is part of BAE's dedication to "work closely with industries in the countries we do business in to support government programs and local economies," according to Tommy Gustafsson-Rask, general manager of BAE Systems Hagglund. The Italian military is one of the largest users of the BV206 and BV206S vehicles, and the vehicle is also in use with the militaries of Austria, France, the Netherlands, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.
The BvS10 is the successor to the wildly popular Bv206, 11,000 of which have been sold to 40 countries around the world – including the USA (M978). Readers may have seen these vehicles elsewhere, too, as a number of Bv206s have post-military careers at ski resorts, in industries like mining and logging, etc. The new BvS-10 is larger and more heavily armored; it's in use in Britain, France and the Netherlands as a key armored vehicle for their respective Marines, has been bought by Sweden, and is under evaluation elsewhere. International interest includes imitators: Singapore's Bronco ATTC is a BVS10 competitor, and Finland and Norway have their own local Bv206 variants.
What makes this unusual-looking vehicle family and design so popular? They aren't like Humvees or similar wheeled mainstays. They aren't full armored personnel carriers, either – they're armored, but Bv family vehicles can't take the kind of punishment that a Bradley or LAV can absorb. Instead, the secret to their success lies in a remarkable all-terrain capability, and their ability to fill a rare and critical role: air-portable and amphibious infantry enhancement. These success factors are discussed below, along with contracts and key developments related to this vehicle family.

Christchurch Overview
One of the best parts of our recent tour of Christchurch was going to an overlook adjacent to Sign of the Takahe. Unfortunately the sun was totally in the wrong place, so we don't have any spectacular photos to share ... but it was really cool to look out over the city.
High School in New Zealand
While we've been here in Christchurch, both Peter and Luke have been going to Riccarton High School with their friends. In New Zealand the schools all have uniforms, and the boys were given the choice to wear them or not (since they're only visiting). Peter didn't really have anyone to borrow from due to his height, but Luke was keen to jump into the whole experience, and has been wearing a uniform for the week. The boys are enjoying their time so much, they want to stay and not return home to America. Luke is still in middle school in the states, but there aren't many middle or intermidate schools here in Christchurch. Luke seems to really be enjoying his time in high school.... see Luke and his friend Jared in the photo below:
Anna-Kate has been going to Primary School with her cousins and I hope to get an update from her today. We only have a couple of days left here in Christchurch before we head south.

It's amazing that James Bond, a film series with so many iconic images, lines, sounds, characters, and tropes, sprung into existence almost entirely fully formed. Right from the very beginning of Dr. No – with that theme, the gun barrel, the animated credits, "Bond, James Bond," – it feels like a James Bond movie. I expected to see some classic Bond stuff here and there in the first entry, with other staples of the series layered in over the next few movies, but, nope, it's all pretty much right here. From the the underground lair to the Bond girl to the cool car to the Vodka martini, shaken not stirred, Dr. No establishes almost every single trope that even a cursory fan like myself know Bond movies for.
That said, Dr. No is also far more subdued and grounded than I was anticipating. The first two acts essentially consist of Bond walking into rooms, getting some piece of info, and then walking out, with the occasional short fist fight or chase to break up the proceedings. Bond isn't a superspy here, he's just a spy. He doesn't get any cool, sci-fi gadgets or amazing action scenes. The over-the-top villain stuff doesn't show up until Bond reaches Dr. No's lair in the last 30 minutes or so, and even then you can tell the movie is held back by the limitations of its era. Dr. No's status as a classic in the series rests more on what it would spawn and a few key scenes (like Honey Ryder's infamous intro), than on its own merits. Still, it's a fun, easy watch, if not just for Sean Connery's easy, sleazy charm.
Surprisingly, Bond himself isn't just a cliche. Sure, he drinks and womanizes and shoots people to avert international catastrophe, but there's more dimension and edge to Connery's Bond. Blame it on decades of parodies and ripoffs, but I came into Dr. No with this idea of a cheesy, silly 1960s Bond, and that's not at all what Sean Connery is playing here.
Perhaps the moment that best exemplifies this James Bond is when he murders an unarmed henchman for the hell of it. Bond has the henchman at gunpoint and he knows the henchman is out of ammo. But when the man tries to shoot Bond with his empty gun, Bond says, "That's a Smith & Wesson, and you've had your six," a line so cold it feels wrong to call it a quip, and then Bond executes him, putting two extra bullets in his back after he's been gunned down. Bond doesn't call in other MI6 agents to arrest the henchman, like we saw him do moments ago to a henchwoman, he just straight murders the guy. Underneath his cool demeanor, greasy charm, and wry smile, James Bond is a cold motherfucker. I always thought Daniel Craig's "grim and gritty" reboot of Bond was a move in a different direction for the character, but based on Dr. No, Craig is actually cribbing from the darker sides of Connery's Bond.
And while this Bond may have more dimension than I was expecting (his admission of being scared while in Dr. No's lair is a nice touch), there still exists the side of him I was dreading most: the sexist womanizer. Counting series staple Moneypenny, there are four Bond girls in the movie and their relationships with Bond run the gamut from relatively progressive to creepy to outright gross.
Sylvia Trench, the very first Bond girl, is the one who takes the initiative in their relationship, propositioning Bond after a game of baccarat and taking it upon herself to show up unannounced to his hotel room. On the opposite side of the "gross dude" spectrum, there's Miss Taro, who Bond knows to be a double-agent working for Dr. No. Taking advantage of the fact that she doesn't know her cover is blown, Bond happily sleeps with her before calling some of his MI6 buddies to arrest her. Bond and Moneypenny's relationship, which I feared would just be Bond sexually harassing a fellow MI6 employee, is actually a fun dynamic, thanks to Moneypenny being just as eager, if not more so than him, to play their flirting game. And then there's Honey Ryder, Bond's main love interest and arguably the most famous Bond girl in the entire series. Honey and Bond's relationship isn't too skeevy since the movie gives them time to grow closer before getting romantic, but it's hard not to feel like Bond is preying on her from the second he spots her on the beach in that iconic white bikini.
Speaking of which, besides that white bikini, there really isn't that much to Honey. She's introduced two-thirds of the way through the movie, given a rushed backstory that doesn't go anywhere, and gets damseled right at the end. She just doesn't do anything of note. Why she's considered one of the best Bond girls is beyond me, and surely, with 23 movies to go, there are more interesting Bond girls than her.
In fact, apart from Moneypenny, who makes a solid impression with just a minutes on screen, none of the movie's supporting characters really leave any impact at all. If I didn't know any better I wouldn't think M was any more important to the series than the generic British guys Bond liaisons with while in Jamaica, and Q (if you can even call him that) is a non-entity. Felix Leiter is okay as a sort of gruff, less suave, American counterpart for Bond, but he doesn't have much to do. And then there's Quarrel, the Jamaican fisherman who Felix and Bond rope into helping them solve the mystery of Dr. No's secret island. Quarrel firmly fits into the well-meaning but simple-minded black man stereotype, all too eager to be bossed around by a white man. Actor John Kitzmiller does get a few scenes to show some range for Quarrel, from obstinate to angry to scared, but then he's killed off before the finale in service to the "Black Men Die First" trope.
Of course, these weak minor characters don't matter as much to the overall film so long as the villain who drives the plot is solid. Ironically, Dr. No is most convincing as a villain when he's not on screen. We first get a sense of who he is when one of his lackeys bites down on some cyanide to avoid being interrogated by Bond. Later, we get a great scene where a henchman (the one who goes on to be murdered by Bond) gets a dressing down from No for failing to throw Bond off his scent. Dr. No isn't shown on screen but his chilling, monotone disembodied voice booms through the cold gray room. Up until that point, the film is a pretty straightforward take on the spy genre, but that scene begins to toe the line of how sci-fi the movie, and series, could be. Unfortunately, Dr. No doesn't appear again until the movie's final 10 minutes where he has dinner with a captured Bond and Honey. He explains his master plan and motivation for destroying U.S. rockets, which essentially boils down to being angry that neither the East or West of the Cold War respected his genius enough to hire him. It's not the most intriguing motivation – enraged megalomania seems like it's dime a dozen for Bond villains – but it does provide an example of how the movie works as a whole.
The movie's first two acts are solid, if a little straightforward. The mystery at the heart of the film doesn't have many twists and turns, but it's fun to watch Bond as he makes his way around the island, meeting people, conducting his investigation, smooth-talking some hot ladies, and shooting the occasional unarmed man. Slower, more mundane scenes, like when Bond gets a new gun from M and Q or when he lays improvised alarms in his hotel room to let him know if it's been broken into, are interesting glimpses into Bond's history and how he thinks.
But, by the third act, Bond gets to Dr. No's secret island base and the movie grows tedious and, ironically, rather uneventful. There are long sequences of Bond, Quarrel, and Honey wandering around the jungle, getting captured and decontaminated, being show their rooms in Dr. No's base, being drugged, and getting dressed all for no discernable reason. These scenes have elements that should be interesting (in enemy territory, outnumbered and outgunned, fighting a weird dragon tank, meeting a villain with mechanical hands) but they're never used effectively or even paid off. This should be where the movie takes off, entering a hyperreal world of science-fiction, spies, and world-destroying villains, but Dr. No doesn't do anything with any of it. The movie gains some steam during the aforementioned dinner scene, just because we finally have Bond and Dr. No interacting, but the climax that follows that scene is also underwhelming.
So, Bond escapes from his jail cell, crawls through a duct, gets splashed with some water, disguises himself in a hazmat suit, and awkwardly wanders around in front of Dr. No and his henchman. Once he's initiated the facility's self-destruction, the two, both still clad in puffy, hazmat suits, get into a fistfight, ending with Dr. No falling into boiling, radioactive water. The whole sequence is slow and awkward, and their goofy suits rob the final fight of any feeling of drama or confrontation as both of their faces are hidden the entire time. I'm sure the suits were used to better hide the stunt doubles, but their use makes the fight itself awkward and it means our protagonist and antagonist never really confront each other; they don't say anything to each other or even share a meaningful look. The climax of our cool spy movie consists of some awkward wandering, two hazmat suits slapping together, and one hazmat suit falling into water. The movie's central conflict simply lacks a satisfying pay-off.
But third act aside, it's still a solid, little spy movie. For most of its runtime, it's subdued and grounded, carried on the strength of Connery's Bond, but, in retrospect, you can see how it lays the groundwork for future movies. The science-fiction and over-the-top spy elements of future movies are hinted at with Dr. No's tech and lair. Not to mention Dr. No establishing SPECTRE as The Big Bad that Bond will have to contend with. It's a cool set-up that implies that there's a larger universe than we're seeing in this one movie. I enjoyed Dr. No for subverting my expectations of what a 007 movie could be, but I'm still interested to see how much farther future movies can swing away from this (relatively) grounded spy mystery towards being larger, globe-trotting science-fiction action films.

|Which first line treatment?
Jun 12, 2008
I am a 26 year old female who has had HIV for 2 years(UK). Ive had varying cd4, VL and cd4 %. My most recent being 253, 3001 and 20%. I am now planning to start treatment in early July when I have blood test back to determine whether to take kivexa or truvada. My main question is what is the best to take with either of he combinations? (I have no resistance to any drugs yet and am experiencing no symptoms). My doctor is suggesting atazanavir and ritonavir. Does this sound like a suitable treatment? I was hoping to take efavirenz but because I have had e depression once they are ruling it out. Does this seem right? would nevirapine be a suitable drug instead? I am a bit hesitant to take ritinavir to begin with. What would you suggest?
Also as my HIV has progressed quite fast, does this have any indication to how well i will respond to meds?
Thank you Freya
Response from Dr. DeJesus
Hi Freya:
If you have no resistance to anti-HIV medications, you should be able to take pretty much any medication. A past history of depression is not a contraindication to start efavirenz. Many patients with past depression are able to take an efavirenz containing regimen and tolerate it very well. So, you can discuss still this option with your provider, and if you start to notice any recurrence of depressive symptoms, your doctor can always change the efavirenz to something else later (like atazanavir). On the other hand, efavirenz is not indicated if you are in a situation in which you can get pregnant, so maybe this is the real reason why your doctor may not want to consider this treatment for you.
Atazanavir/ritonavir is also an excellent option, either combined with Kivexa or Truvada, especially if you were already found not to have a contraindication for Kivexa. Both treatments are OK, so you should not worry much about them, just start soon, because your numbers are getting to be too low. Good luck!

Human Rights Advocacy
2005 Gambia Killings
One of CHRI Africa's biggest feats has been its involvement and investigation into the case of the extra-judicial disappearances and killings of approximately 50 Africans that took place in the Gambia in 2005. Forty Ghanaians, ten Nigerians, two Senegalese, one Togolese and one Ivorian were attempting to travel to Europe when the Gambian naval authorities intercepted them. They were arrested and accused of plotting a coup against the government. They were detained without being charged at naval headquarters in Banjul and subsequently taken to a killing site in the farms of Siffoe in Gambia's Western Division. CHRI quickly become involved and began fact finding mission to the towns of Bekerum and Kumasi to meet with the victim's families residing there in order to gain more information pertaining to the victims, their identity and family relations and to find out what actions the relatives had taken to ascertain the whereabouts of their missing and or dead relatives. CHRI then teamed up with Legal Aid to establish the Gambia task force in order to raise public awareness and promote global sensitization on the inhuman activities occurring in the Gambia sanctioned by the government. CHRI has raised this issue at various national and international forums, most recently at the Commonwealth Human Rights People's Forum that took place in Kampala, Uganda. CHRI also organized a ceremonial vigil for the victims during the 9th African Union Summit in Accra in 2007. Many of the victim's families have still not received compensation for the actions that took place 5 years ago and although there is substantial evidence against the perpetrators, they have still not been brought to justice. CHRI is continually working with human rights defenders across the continent and abroad including the International Court of Justice, the United Nations Human Rights Council, ECOWAS Court and the Commonwealth Secretariat who have pledged their assistance in furthering the course of justice for the victims and their families.
Disability Rights and Mental Health
CHRI Africa has also undertaken research on the situation of disability rights and access to mental health care in Ghana. The Ghanaian government in officially responsible for providing mental health care to its citizens, however it has failed in many aspects, mainly the availability of mental health care facilities throughout Ghana. There are three psychiatric hospitals in Ghana: Accra, Ankaful and Pantang. Additionally, five regional hospitals have small psychiatric wings: Kumasi, Ho, Sunyani and Kofuridua. Thus, mental health care is extremely limited in the North of Ghana. Furthermore, there are only psychiatric nurses in 65 out of 130 districts in Ghana, leaving a significant percentage of the population without access to mental health care. The lack of appropriate mental health care has partially contributed to the emergence of prayer camps in Ghana where mentally ill patients are often sent to receive care from traditional healers. During one of CHRI's fact finding missions, they found that patients at these facilities were not receiving any medical care and were having their rights abused to point of being chained up and starved of food and water. CHRI has since become involved in the promotion of the Mental Health Bill, which has not yet been made law. CHRI's research and advocacy project seeks to reduce incidence of human rights violations in prayer camps, encourage referrals of mental health patients from prayer camps to psychiatric hospitals, advocate for the regularization of mental healthcare services provided by prayer camps and to increase awareness and public understanding about mental health issues to reduce stigmatization.
The rights of persons with disability within the Ghanaian society are often disregarded and marginalized in terms of political inclusion even though the Constitution guarantees their fundamental human rights. In general, Ghanaians with disabilities face under funded and segregated education, chronic unemployment and inadequate access to public facilities. They also face discrimination in unemployment, housing, transport and health facilities. Therefore, CHRI has begun to promote awareness of the Persons with Disability Act, which was passed by Parliament in 2006. In order to make the 60-section bill more reader friendly, CHRI wrote and published 3 simplified versions of the law; adult, children and Braille versions.
Forced Evictions
CHRI has also dealt with the ongoing problem of forced evictions throughout Ghana. Local government generally carries out these evictions with little regard to human rights standards. CHRI has investigated forced evictions in the neighborhoods of Sodom and Gomorrah, Kumasi; Mallam, Accra; Dambai, Volta and Glefe, Accra. CHRI's main concern about the evictions that took place is the manner in which the evictions were carried out by local government authorities, particularly the use of excessive force during the ejection of evictees from their homes. Additionally, CHRI has contacted the Minister of Local Government to issue adequate compensation and alternative accommodation to the evictees as well as ensuring that proper notice is given to potential evictees before said evictions take place in the future.
Child Abuse
In 2007, CHRI launched a campaign of public awareness in regards to child abuse. This was done by organizing workshops throughout Ghana to educate people about the rights of children. Workshops took place in Bortianor, Wusuta and Nkwanta. These workshops targeted school children and their parents and touched on subjects relation to child abuse such as child trafficking, incest, rape and defilement and harmful traditional and cultural practices.

A Look back : Dinner X Design & IDS West
September was a busy and exciting month here at Gillian Segal Design. One of the highlights was definitely participating in this years Dinner X Design and IDS West with my partner for this event Bash & Fete. For those of you who don't know about the event, Dinner x Design is an incredible charity gala that raises money for the Dr. Peter Aid's Foundation. Local designers and event producers are invited to create a concept and design for a 12'-0" x 12'-0" space. After a few short days dedicated to building and set-up, a cocktail party and the gala dinner were held here in Vancouver at CBC studios. Following two great evenings, we had a few days to take everything apart and move it over the the Vancouver Convention Center, where all of the Dinner x Design booths were on display for the duration of IDS West. We were so thrilled with the end result of the design, and had a blast with amazing guests at the Gala dinner, however this was definitely an undertaking that took a village. While the process started with Brittany and I brainstorming a concept, we ended with an incredible team of talented designers who helped us bring our vision to life.
Our initial concept was: We'll Always Have Paris. Here is a summary of our vision:
We don't know how, but Parisians always manage to do it better. The fashion, the food, the design and not to mention the fact that women manage to eat bon-bons all day and still stay thin. The chic and luxurious Parisian lifestyle is appealing in and of itself but we felt particularly inspired by some of the design emerging out of Paris. Designers like Christian Liagre, Joseph Dirand and Jean Louis Denoit are able to seamlessly marry the old and the new, creating interesting and glamorous spaces that re-interpret tradition. That was our goal: a modern twist on classic elements of design.
After coming up with a mood board to keep our concept focused (see below), I started on a journey of an amazing collaborative design process with Katherine Gordon, Jeff Martin, Matthew McCormick and Lock & Mortice. With Katherine's Architecture & Design expertise, Jeff's table , Matt's chandelier and Mirror Art made by Katherine and myself we were off to a very exciting start. Having Lock & Mortice come on board to not only build the booth, but do all the brass work (and the benches) really brought all of our brainstorming to life. Take a look at the end result below! Florals provided by The Flower Factory, Busts and small accessories from The Cross and graphic design for our menus was done by Sandy Manj. All photos taken by the talented Tracey Atyon.
And...for those of you who are wondering, the Mirror is in French and reads, "TOUS NARCISSIQUES" meaning: all narcissistic. This item is sold, however other pieces of mirror art are available on a commission basis.

Bryce Canyon
Rank: Top 300
Wonder Type: Natural
Country: United States of America
Bryce Canyon National Park is a National Park located in southwestern Utah in the United States. The major feature of the park is Bryce Canyon, which despite its name, is not a canyon, but a collection of giant natural amphitheaters along the eastern side of the Paunsaugunt Plateau. Bryce is distinctive due to geological structures called hoodoos, formed by frost weathering and stream erosion of the river and lake bed sedimentary rocks. The red, orange, and white colors of the rocks provide spectacular views for park visitors. Bryce sits at a much higher elevation than nearby Zion National Park. The rim at Bryce varies from 8,000 to 9,000 feet (2,400 to 2,700 m).

For most people, they tend to lose interest in their job and their excitement withers off. Everyday going to their office becomes harder and more challenging. This can potentially jeopardize your career and make you lose sight of your own professional goals. Therefore always be on a lookout for the following signs that your job is ruining your career.
Excitement for New Projects
New projects are opportunities for employees to learn new things and manifest their leadership skills. If you start getting bored of taking on new projects and it simply becomes "more work", you really need to consider your career. Loss of interest in your job will lead you to explore little potential of yourself and you will feel stuck at your job. Therefore it's important to withdraw from that job as your productivity is being affected.
A repetitive set of motions
If you wake up, go to work, attend meetings and answer emails then it means your job has become a continuous life cycle of repetitive motions. Doing your job with your eyes closed is equivalent to being a robot. Therefore it's important to reevaluate your job. Your workplace should challenge you to learn new things rather than keeping you at a standstill.
Competitive Salary
Staying at a job for too long wouldn't just hurt your career goals but rather would put a strain on your pocket as well. According to research employees that leave an unsatisfactory job tend to make 50% more than employees that stay. Some people fear that people will consider them a job hopper and it would reflect negatively on their CV. However, staying at the same job wouldn't offer you many professional opportunities therefore it's important to be adaptive to change.
Complains everywhere
Who wants to stay at a job that they are always complaining about? Being grumpy with your work is a sign of unhappiness. Your close friends and co-workers will realize a shift in your attitude towards your workplace. A little vent about the job is okay but complaining all the time can have tremendous negative effects on your personal and professional life. People will try to avoid working with you.
Therefore if you find any of these signs at your workplace, it's important to reevaluate your choices. Be brave and confident to accept new places and changes. If you are happy at your workplace, you can have a flourishing career.

Portland announces new sister city
It's Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates. Mayor Sam Adams made the announcement this morning from his undisclosed holiday vacation locale -- he is helping downtown Portland merchants by staying far away from the city and not scaring off shoppers.
"I'm proud to announce that we are entering into a relationship with Dubai," the mayor said. "Our two cities have many things in common, especially on the financial side. We're overextended just like they are. It's important that we show solidarity in these tough times. Believe me, I know all too well the meaning of the term 'default.'" Adams and an entourage of a half dozen pompous but good-looking twenty-something know-nothing aides will be visiting the Arab nation early next year, he said.

Displaced people found to have registered to vote in several electorates by submitting false information and documents risk being fined, sentenced to a prison term or both, under new laws now being drafted.
Under the new laws, internally displaced people have been allowed to register to vote in the electorate they resided in before being displaced. If, however, such persons are found to have registered to vote in several electorates, they risk a two-year jail term, a Rs.100,000 fine or both.
Displaced people who wish to remain in current places of residences have the option of registering to vote in that particular electorate. Additionally, those found to have submitted false information and forged documents when registering to vote risk a one year jail term, a Rs.50,000 fine or both. Police are to be given powers to file cases in a Magistrate's Court against such people.

3 November 2017
Yesterday, Thursday 2 November, the Labour MP Mary Glindon hosted a reception to launch the report Abortion and Women's Health on behalf of the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children (SPUC).
"The report Abortion and Women's Health is a major academic review of studies on the impact of abortion on the mental and physical health of women," she said.
"It is only right that after 50 years of legalised abortion, those on both sides of the debate should examine the impact of abortion on women," Mrs Glindon continued. "There are some shocking findings in the report, for example women who have had abortions are 30% more likely to experience mental health problems and that women who have had abortions are 6 times more likely to commit suicide than other women.
"The number of abortions at 8.8 million is staggering but it is equally worrying to read about the toll abortion takes on women," she concluded. "I hope that everyone here will read the report – it's really important that it gets to the people who can make a difference."
The reception was attended by MPs and peers from all the major parties, as well as representatives of nine pro-life organisations.
Guests were welcomed by SPUC Chief Executive John Smeaton, who began: "It is important to say loud and clear that SPUC cares about women."
This was emphasised by Clare Bremner of Abortion Recovery Care and Helpline, a sister organisation of SPUC that offers free, non-judgmental counselling to women, men and healthcare professionals suffering after an abortion experience. "When I told the women I'm currently counselling that I was coming here today, they were excited," she said. "They kept telling me, make sure you tell them what it's like for us – they need to know." She went on to describe how for so many of the women she counsels, abortion didn't seem like "their choice" at all – they were pressured into it by partners, family or doctors.
The report was welcomed by Dr Greg Gardner, a GP working in Birmingham. However, he said, the kind of research from other countries that make up the review is not happening in the Britain, because there is no requirement to put a patient's NHS number on an abortion form, so no data can be collected about patient outcomes. He called on the Department of Health to bring abortion providers into line with the rest of the NHS and make record linkage research possible in England and Wales. "The NHS should be a major contributor to the world literature on research on abortion, but it is not."
The final speech was from Bishop John Keenan of Paisley, who endorsed the report on behalf of the bishops of Scotland. He said: "This is not about winning arguments, but real help, to real women."
Abortion and Women's Health is a fully referenced review based on global research and lists a catalogue of physical and mental health problems linked to terminations. It was carried out by Dr Gregory Pike, a medical researcher and the Founding Director of the Adelaide Centre for Bioethics and Culture. It has been sent to all MPs.
Key findings from the review include:
SPUC's director of campaigns Antonia Tully, launching the report, said:
"The pro-abortion lobby and the abortion industry, which make millions of pounds from the taxpayer for carrying out state-funded terminations, don't seem to care about the impact of abortion on women or refuse to look at what that impact is. The reality is that the impact is both heart-breaking and horrific for so many women.
"We really do care that women who have an abortion experience mental health problems 30% more often compared with women who give birth.
"It matters greatly to us that the risk of suicide is approximately six times greater after an abortion than after childbirth.
"The mental, emotional and physical impacts are long-lasting and often life-changing."
Notes to editors:
Dr Anthony McCarthy can be contacted on:
I just hope they can get the word out to the public. It will take some very courageous people in the media to go with this and actually interview women and have them on TV, radio and print media. Don't hold your breath that women's magazines will take note of it. Their advertisers know that mothers have less money to spend on themselves, so any threat to legal abortion is a threat to their profit margins.

- Is Notre Dame for real? There's a lot to like out of the Irish's 5–1 start, but Saturday's USC game is when their season truly begins.
This time last season, Notre Dame was headed into its bye week with a 2–5 record, coming off a 10–3 loss to NC State in a downpour and a 17–10 home loss to Stanford that sent the Irish's season into crisis and increased the volume of the criticism directed at head coach Brian Kelly. Quarterback DeShone Kizer had thrown three interceptions and no touchdowns in those two losses. The bye, it turned out, would prove little help for the Irish, which edged Miami in South Bend but finished the year 4–8 with one-possession losses to Navy and Virginia Tech, capped by a 45–27 loss to USC in the Coliseum.
A year later, coming off a similarly placed midseason bye, Notre Dame is at a different type of crossroads, at 5–1 with a Week 2 loss to a Georgia team that's off to a 7–0 start and ranked No. 3 in the nation. The Irish's five wins have come against teams that range from feisty (No. 18 Michigan State and Boston College) to rudderless (North Carolina and Miami-Ohio), making the Georgia game the most relevant data point pundits have to go on at midseason. The slim margins that decided the Georgia game—the Bulldogs won 20–19 on a last-minute field goal set up by a strip-sack of Brandon Wimbush with 1:27 left—have gotten more impressive every week. (Georgia's next-closest victory to date is a 21-point win over Appalachian State in Week 1.)
Soon there will be no need for guesswork: Notre Dame has one of the toughest second-half schedules of any national contender, starting when the No. 11 Trojans arrive in South Bend this weekend. USC isn't the powerhouse it was thought to be early this season, having ground out wins over middle-of-the-road teams like Cal, Texas and most recently Utah, but they're still 6–1, a step (or two, or three) ahead of the Spartans, who as of now are the best win on Notre Dame's résumé. Beating the Trojans would mark the Irish's first win over a ranked opponent since they beat then-No. 21 Temple on Oct. 31, 2015, and as good an indication as any that they will factor into the calculations for this year's marquee bowl games, if not the College Football Playoff.
The Irish take on another Top 25 team the following week in NC State, which is 6–1 and ranked No. 16 entering its bye. The next week they play Wake Forest—which counts as the closest thing to a respite even though the Demon Deacons have significantly improved this year—before traveling to Miami (currently ranked eighth and unbeaten), hosting Navy (which was ranked No. 25 last week before losing to Memphis) and ending the regular season at No. 22 Stanford, resurgent after two September losses thanks to Heisman candidate Bryce Love.
Come mid-November, there will be no doubt about who the Irish are. They are one of three teams in the country with four current Top 25 opponents still left on the schedule. (Maryland and Georgia Tech are the other two, and neither has as much on the line.) In August, this six-week stretch looked like a nightmare. Now, it still looks unpleasant—but it also holds the potential to reward the Irish in a big way. A second loss doesn't doom their New Year's Six chances with so many quality wins left on the table.
And on the back of the nation's No. 15 scoring defense and No. 5 rushing attack, Notre Dame looks built to contend with this year's top teams. Running back Josh Adams is averaging 129.3 yards per game (seventh in FBS) and a whopping 9.0 yards per carry. With junior quarterback Brandon Wimbush calling the signals, the run game sets up the passing game, and new defensive coordinator Mike Elko's unit has created 14 turnovers so far. If Notre Dame keeps up the standard it's set in the first half of the season, the playoff committee could have a tricky decision on its hands six weeks from now.

The main branch of the New York Public Library is a magnificent Beaux Arts structure at the corner of Fifth Avenue and Forty-Second Street. Now known as the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building, it is the jewel in the crown of New York's public library system and an invaluable resource to readers and researchers from around the world. Indeed, I have availed myself many times of the reference works in both the Art and Architecture Reading Room and the Rare Print Room and am always thrilled at the privilege and good fortune of having such a treasure trove of information in such grand surroundings, all just a bus ride away!
The Rose Main Reading Room, Room 315, is a massive hall on the top floor where readers can study or work on laptops at large wooden tables. Nearly the length of a football field with 52 foot high ceilings, the room is lit with both natural light and large chandeliers and features a perimeter filled with books on open shelves. Ornately decorated with painted murals and 900 carved plaster elements, the ceiling is as magnificent as any European castle's. Two years ago it was exactly one of these carved plaster ornaments, a rosette to be precise, that fell to the floor during the overnight hours and caused the immediate closing of the facility.
Although Henri-Charles Guérard initially set out to study law he quickly realized that his passion lay in art and he devoted his career to the medium of prints. Influenced by Rembrandt, and later Manet (with whom he was both a friend and colleague), Guérard had his own distinct style that verged on the bizarre. But no matter whether he was depicting a rather ordinary landscape like these views of "L'Avenue Trudaine", 1872...
Like many of his contemporaries, Guérard was very much taken with the prevailing fashion of Japonism, in particular the woodcuts of Hokusai. One can find Japanese elements in both the objects depicted and the stylistic format of the image. A good example of this cultural cross pollination is this color etching and aquatint of a "Rat in a Vase Gazing at the Moon", c. 1886...
This is a small but dense and important show for printed imagery - typical of the type of temporary exhibitions mounted by the New York Public Library. These shows, like the Library itself, are always free and open to the public, another reason why I feel so blessed to call this metropolis home!

Book 012317 Blue Point
New book: The Refugee Crisis: Through the Eyes of the Children, by Robin and Robert Jones (Blue Point Books)
Santa Barbara, CA: Robin and Robert Jones have lived part-time
on the beautiful island of Lesbos, Greece for 42 years. Their small village of Molyvos, home to about 1,000 residents, has
evolved in the last decades from an economy based on fishing and olives to one dependent on tourism.
In 2015 Lesbos
became a flashpoint for the refugee crisis sweeping Europe and Asia. When the Jones's returned to Molyvos in April 2015,
fewer than 150 refugees a week were landing on the island. By the time they left in November, 3,000 desperate people were
pouring onto their beaches every day after having made the dangerous crossing of the Aegean Sea on overcrowded rubber rafts
from Turkey.
The Jones's joined other
volunteers to help the refugees, over half of whom were women and children. Soaked, with few to no belongings, the refugees
desperately wanted to continue their journey to Northern Europe and leave Greece as soon as possible. Until buses started
in the fall they had to walk 60 kilometers over mountain roads in sweltering heat to cross the island to the official Registration
At a rest stop set up for the refugees, Robin, an art teacher, provided paper, colored pens and a plastic tablecloth
she spread on the ground to give the children a place to draw. They sketched tanks and guns but also flowers and homes. Streaks
of blue represented the water they had just crossed.
In The Refugee Crisis: Through the Eyes of the Children, Robin's photographs and Robert's narrative tell
a compelling story of families fleeing from cities and towns where they feared for their lives. It is their hope that this
book will, through the eyes of the children, bring home the real impact of the "Refugee Crisis" and put a human
face on this unprecedented exodus.
All the proceeds from the sales of Through the Eyes of the Children, over the actual
costs, will be donated to IsraAID, one of the first NGOs to arrive on the island.
Just published by Blue Point Books, the full color paperback book is available on Amazon.com and at selected booksellers.
the Authors:
Robin and Robert Jones,
on a break from their separate worlds, met by chance on the Greek island of Hydra in 1974. From there they traveled by ferry
to the island of Lesbos and the beautiful village of Molyvos, where they fell in love with each other and the village.
has been traveling the world since he was 18 years old. He has owned an Asian art gallery and bookstore in Toronto, Canada,
is a SCUBA instructor, a poet, and was president of an international processing and distribution company.
Robin holds a BFA and K-12 Teaching Certification from Temple
University (Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia) and is passionate about family, photography, cooking, and travel (among many
other things).
Robert and Robin married in Toronto two years after their chance meeting in Greece. After years
in the corporate world, in 1987 they retreated back to Molyvos with their three sons for a year's sabbatical.
Returning to the States, they moved to Santa Barbara (where
Robert had gone to high school) and started a successful travel company that they recently sold after 28 years. During those
years they frequently returned to Molyvos where, in 2007, they bought a second home. They continue to spend 3-4 months a year
Robin and Robert's lives were forever changed by the refugee crisis. They knew while this crisis was unfolding
that beyond the words and photos, it was an extraordinary moment for them personally to get a chance to experience the profound
gift of caring for other humans in desperate need. The shared smiles, hands touching hearts in thanks and the wet eyes will
never be forgotten.

TORRINGTON – Despite leading by 14 at one point against Western Wyoming Community College Friday in Torrington, the Eastern Wyoming College Lancers let their lead slip away and a shot by the Mustangs with 3.5 seconds to go sealed the loss for the Lancers.
The Lancers got out to a solid start, taking a 9-0 lead less than three minutes into the game. They continued to lead and held a 36-26 advantage with 5:50 remaining in the first half and they grew their lead to 45-33 at the intermission.
"We definitely played a really good half of basketball," coach Neal Sherbeyn said. "We were pushing and playing tough defense."
The Mustangs came out hot in the second half, trimming the Lancer lead to 51-47 with 13:42 to go and they went on to tie it at 58 with 11:02 left on the clock. Walker Korell nailed two three-pointers, giving the Lancers a 68-63 lead and forcing a WWCC timeout with 6:44 to go. EWC continued its hot play to build a 74-65 lead, but they hit a cold spell and the Mustangs came back to tie the game at 77 with 2:31 remaining.
"With about 4:55 in the game, we were up by 10 with pretty good control of the game, but we just stopped doing what we do best," Sherbeyn said.
Korell made it rain again from three-point land, giving the Lancers an 80-77 lead, but WWCC quickly answered with a three of their own. Brandon Meadows was fouled and hit one of his free throws to take an 81-80 lead. A layup by the Mustangs with less than a minute to go gave the visitors an 82-81 lead. Rhythm Ajanku hit a layup and was fouled, but missed the free throw, giving the Lancers an 83-82 lead. With 3.5 seconds to go, WWCC drained a three-pointer to take an 85-83 lead. A miscommunication on the inbounds pass gave the ball back to the Mustangs, sealing the game at 85-83.
"With 12 seconds left, they came down and got into the paint," Sherbeyn said. "A guy who didn't shoot a three all game hits a three in the corner with nobody there because we were running from the inside out."
Meadows had a big game for the Lancers, turning in 23 points for a team-high. Meadows finished with a double-double, leading the Lancers with 10 boards. He also had a block and two steals. Korell was second on the team with 19 points. He shot 7-of-9 from the field, including 5-of-7 from behind the arc. Korell rounded out his stat sheet with four rebounds and two steals.
Nick Holmes was the final Lancer in double-figures, pouring in 10 points on the night.
Trey Schroefel, Jonathan Morrobel and Alek Cosic joined Holmes and Korell as starters on the night. Schroefel accounted for seven points on 3-of-4 shooting from the field and he chipped in three rebounds. Morrobel and Cosic combined for 10 points, three rebounds and a steal. Ajanku and Kolton Wall combined to come off the bench for 10 points, an assist, a block and a steal.
The Lancers picked up where they left off Friday in their game Saturday, opening against Central Wyoming College with back-and-forth scoring.
"We were pretty all devastated last night and probably the most devastated was me," Sherbeyn said. "The team hurt and they took it personal. I was really scared with how we were going to come out today because in the past I've seen our teams sell out."
Five minutes into the first half and EWC held a 12-11 lead, but the Rustlers quickly wrestled away the lead and built a 30-25 lead at the midway point in the first half. At intermission, EWC trailed 53-41.
The visitors held the Lancers at bay for much of the second half, keeping the distance in the double-figures, including the largest lead of the game at 20 points. Down the stretch, EWC started chipping away at the CWC lead, with a three-pointer by Holmes putting the score at 96-88 with less than two minutes to go.
"The guys don't want to lose either. Those guys are competitors and I think we've got a really good ball team," Sherbeyn said of his team clawing back into the game late. "They want to win. They do take it personal."
EWC continued to cut into the lead with CWC missing several free throws in the final minutes. With 22.8 seconds left, the Lancers were down 103-98 and they continued the high effort as the remaining seconds ticked off, but fell 106-102.
"I was very proud of them. They didn't quit," Sherybeyn said. "They fought and they battled until the end and that's something you can always hang your hat on."
Six Lancers were in double-figures, led by Holmes and Meadows, who had 18 points apiece. Meadows again lead the way on the boards, with seven rebounds, while also accounting for an assist and a team-high three steals. Holmes chipped in two rebounds and three assists.
Jordan Mirich was second on the team in scoring with 17 points on 6-of-9 shooting from the field. He also had three assists and a steal. Ajanku turned in 13 points, two rebounds, two steals and a team-high six assists. Morrobel, with 11 points, and Cosic, with 10 points, rounded out the top scorers for EWC. They also combined for 11 rebounds, three blocks and a steal.
The Lancers now sit at 1-7 on the young season. Their last game of the month comes on the road Nov. 30 against Northeastern Junior College at 7:30 p.m.
"We haven't played a complete game yet and I'm waiting for that. When we get it, whoever we are playing needs to watch out," Sherbeyn said.

Mineral Resources Program
Project status is complete. Please check the project list for currently active projects.
The USGS Soil Geochemical Landscapes of the Conterminous United States Project (2011-2015) published national-scale geochemical and mineralogical data and maps for soils of the conterminous U.S., published in USGS Data Series 801 (Smith and others, 2014; Smith and others, 2013) and available as an interactive mapping web site. Users can view all the maps and download them in a variety of formats, including KML files that can be opened directly into Google Earth. However, interpretive products to explain the major geochemical and mineralogical patterns observed for each element and mineral have not been published.
We will publish interpretive products based on the existing national-scale geochemical and mineralogical data and maps for soils of the conterminous U.S. In addition to these publications, we will add explanations of the major geochemical and mineralogical patterns observed for each element and mineral shown on this site.
These data and maps are a valuable tool in policy and decision-making. Possible interpretive products will show:
In addition, the Mexican Geological Survey is nearing completion of chemical analysis on soil samples collected throughout Mexico. We hope to merge our data sets to produce geochemical maps of the two countries combined.
There are a variety of stakeholders who provided positive comments when the soil geochemical and mineralogical data and maps were published. The additional interpretive publications and resulting enhanced interactive data and map portal will facilitate the stakeholders' ability to understand the abundance and spatial distribution of chemical elements and minerals in soils of the conterminous U.S.

Music GTA Information
Graduate Teaching Assistantships (GTAs)
GTAs are available for qualified students who wish to pursue a Master of Music degree, with concentrations in Performance or Music Education (including Initial Licensure Program). Music Education assistantships are available for practicing or aspiring music educators. Performance assistantships are allotted to applied studios of all the customary areas: winds, percussion, strings, guitar, piano, and voice (all voice types), as well as choral and instrumental conducting.
Essentially, a GTA becomes a "teaching apprentice" – by being paired with experienced and gifted classroom teacher. During their first year, the GTA will be mentored/supervised as part of the (required) Practicum in Teaching course. For the second year the role of the GTA as a teacher/facilitator could be significantly enhanced. For those who demonstrate extraordinary teaching skills during the first year, the second year may involve an opportunity to take complete responsibility for a class, serving as the official 'teacher of record.'
The usual teaching assignment will involve music appreciation (our general education core course for non-majors); however, graduate students have also taught music majors in the areas of methods, class voice, music technology, and musicianship.
Teaching, grading, or assisting with classroom courses will normally account for half of the 20 hours of required service, weekly. The remaining hours may be used to fill additional departmental needs, which include but are not limited to, the following:
Departmental Needs (and possible GTA duties for those interested and qualified)
- Conducting, performing, and/or assisting with ensembles related to area (bands, orchestra, choirs, guitar, opera workshop);
- Teaching assistant in the candidate's area of expertise;
- Performance in graduate chamber ensembles. (Service components will be incorporated; for example, performing on departmental concerts, at special campus events, or as a part of outreach or advancement programs);
- Assisting with facilitation of music programs for primary and secondary level students;
- Student teacher observation (music education concentration);
- Accompanying;
- Teaching/assisting with music technology course;
- Serving as a departmental technology resource person -- by assisting with the use computer-aided instruction tools, helping students to assemble e-portfolios, etc.;
- Faculty research assistant;
- Management, Recruiting, Program Development (serving as part of the music department's
administrative team);
- Representing department at conferences and college fairs;
- Enhancing alumni relations programming (assisting with phone campaigns, writing and editing content for the alumni E-Newsletter, organizing campus receptions);
- Assisting with audition days, invitational events, and honor festivals;
- Community outreach and audience development;
- Assisting with management of departmental facilities and instruments;
- Serving as a music admissions coordinator (maintain prospective student database, corresponding with high school students, arranging visits, etc.);
- Managing social media program and assisting with efforts to enhance our web presence;
- Assisting with music career development initiatives;
Interested students should:
- Consult audition requirements and complete a web request for an audition time.

Anchored in al-Muzzammil
There is this verse, and it speaks to the frailty of our humanity:
علم أن لن تحصوه فتاب عليكم فاقرءوا ما تيسر من القرءان • علم أن سيكون منكم مرضىٰ وءاخرون يضربون في الأرض يبتغون من فضل الله وءاخرون يقٰتلون في سبيل الله فاقرءوا ما تيسر منه
"…and Allah determines [the extent of] the night and the day. He has known that you will not be able to do it, so He has turned to you in forgiveness. So recite what is easy [for you] of the Qur`ān. He has known that among you are the ill; others traveling throughout the land seeking from the bounty of Allah; and others fighting on His path. So, again, recite what is easy from [Qur`ān] and establish prayer, give charity, and loan Allah a goodly loan. And whatever good you put forward for yourselves-—you will find it with Allah. It is better and greater in reward." Notice, notice my fellow Type A Personalities (who believe "I can do it all") how Allah interrupts this verse with a mention of His structuring our night and day. Why? With the sun's rising, we begin our work day, and with its setting, we retire to our families for rest and relaxation. In between all that, Allah granted us but a few hours to accomplish what we're set to accomplish. And Allah recognizes that often, we will fall short. We will leave our to-do lists half-checked; our goals half-met; our social lives suffering; our jobs consuming us; our prayers prayed hurriedly; texts and e-mails buried beneath fusillades of messages… And did Allah mention? Illness, travel and life circumstances will trip you over when you least expect it.
All this, and our Rabb invites us to abandon self-criticism and, instead, recognize ourselves in our humbler capacities: "He has already known that you will not be able to do it, so He has turned to you in forgiveness." To be human is to burn out, occasionally. To be human is to overwork and break down and threaten to push all your bookshelves off your balcony and into the river after a torturous amount of studying (maybe that's just me). He [سبحانه وتعالى] knew this about you before, and He forgave you before. Upon you is to humbly pick yourself up, and move on…

Theatre is one of the most powerful storytelling mediums in the arts. Whether through the script, or through the performance, theatre has a magical way of getting ideas across to its audiences.
Hip Hop dance theatre is still young; under two decades if you mark the works of Jonzi D, Benji Reid, Robert Hylton and pioneers of the same ilk have done to push the art form forward. Using such a raw dance style as a storytelling tool is only truly beginning to come into its own (notable examples being Boy Blue Entertainment, Avant Garde Dance, Far From the Norm, The Company, and Ella Mesma Dance, to name a few).
Body Politic is 4 years old as an organisation, and just over a year old as a company creating theatrical work. What I'm getting at is that many art forms and ideas need to come together for us to communicate the vast amount of information buried in tackling the issue that is mental health and wellbeing.
Enter Poetry. With a history of socially conscious poets and poems, recent and aged, for us to learn from. As one of the artists, I've been writing for years and have a history of mental health issues myself; I've openly written about before. So came the idea of implementing spoken word poetry into the piece for its performative and storytelling qualities.
Yet it wasn't that easy to begin with. After our first Scratch night last year, we realised there needed to be a better blend of spoken word with movement, rather than having one after the other. A better balance needed to be achieved, so the poem didn't take away from the movement, but rather complimented it. Our practice was also quite split. I would write, the choreographers would choreograph, and the artistic director would design the stage, and we would all come together and try to work it all in (granted we were strapped for time originally; as most small scale theatrical pieces tend to be).
Learning from this process, it's now best not to shy away from using tools in the writing sphere to compliment my poems for the new pieces we are currently developing. Tools such as script writing that encourage use of cues, backgrounds of characters, use of stage etc. This truly allows for myself, choreographers, and artistic director to work even closer together and command the narrative we truly want to tell. It's also a bonus we have longer to create!
A closer look at an extract of a poem used in the original Reflections. This piece explores different symptoms that trigger depression through the use of personification.
Me, Myself, and Mental Health
… So I picked up my keys and drove to a bar where I had promised to catch up with Stoicism.
We were childhood friends,
Introduced when crying was no longer allowed,
When emotions decided to be feminine,
And when I decided to be like father.
We talked and talked for hours about exercises to make the pain bearable.
Sit ups in the morning, press ups at night,
And that's when I saw her.
The most beautiful thing gliding across the dancefloor.
I fell in love with Depression.
By Isaac Ouro

Halifax Hammers thrashed Ryburn United 5-0 in their first game in seven weeks.
Hammers have won six out of seven games this season in the Ziggys Metro Cars Halifax Sunday League and are six points off top spot with two games in hand.
Both teams should have scored before Hammers eventually found the net two minutes before half-time, with Terriq Pervez and Awais Khan missing good chances for the hosts, while Ben Whitehead and Gareth Robertshaw both had efforts cleared off the line for a lively young Ryburn side.
But Sameer Ahmed scored the opener after a fine run down the right and a god driven shot into the bottom corner.
But Hammers got into the groove after half-time, with Khan netting twice in four minutes with two good individual goals.
Ryburn still kept pushing forward but were kept out by good goalkeeping from Yasar Mohammed and some fine defending by man of the match Callum Charlton.
Ahsan Farooq put the result beyond doubt in the 72nd minute with a good run from the left side and a powerful shot into the top corner to make it 4-0.
Then on 80 minutes a lovely pass by substitute Khurram Shazad sent Pervez clear, and he finished from tight angle to make it 5-0.
King Cross moved above FC Casa in the table with a 4-3 away win.
Jarrett Rickman was the main thorn in Matthew Bagshaw's side as he grabbed a brace and man of the match, whilst Andrew Hodson-Walker and debutant Dave Benson made it four for the visitors.
Sean McManamin, Levi Brown and Jamie Marshall were on the scoresheet for the Rastrick High School based side, but it wasn't enough to see them gather any points
In Division One, Cock and Bottle were the big winners of the day with a 6-1 thrashing of Barum Top.
There was a 5-1 win for Halifax Hammers Reserves against Halifax Rangers with goals from Suhail Bashir (2), Awais Ashfaq (2) and Wajid Nawaz, while Old Pond beat Halifax Amateurs 5-4.
Brad Rufus fired a 14 minute hat-trick to put Pond into a commanding lead, before player-manager Paul Taylor and Hayden Lewis also found the net to put them 5-0 up within the first 30 minutes.
But Amateurs nearly produced an incredible comeback, with Alex O'Keefe netting a hat-trick of his own before Ben Helliwell made it 5-4.

Anti-Mera team; or my new favourite board clear.
by, 09-29-2015 at 06:46 PM (4924 Views)
The last blog post I did on here was a new turn three kill. With the team being heavily reliant on one character hitting for 20 damage talk quickly turned to a card from War of Light which could stop this team in it's tracks. To be more precise, a global which could stop the team in it's tracks. That global appears on the character Mera in two of it's versions (the common and uncommon) and reads: Pay (mask). If a character would deal you 5 or more combat damage, it instead deals you 2 combat damage.
So what's the solution? Well, simply put, overwhelm with characters.
Getting through with one character like Patch or Formerly Weapon X is great, but when they can stop that with 1 mask then those options become a lot less viable. But attack with 6 characters that have 4 attack and Mera becomes pretty easy.
Great! So what's the problem? Well if you have enough time to get a bunch of characters on the board then your opponent will also have time to get a load of characters on the board...
Without further ado let me introduce to you my new favourite board clear:
Get out four sidekicks attack with red eyes and clear your opponents field of all their sidekicks and four of their characters. It's pretty stupendous and efficient. Once you have got a red eyes in your field you can just wait for Fighting to come cycle through your bag. The added bonus is that Red Eyes is probably going to be one of those characters your opponent blocks because of the added 2 attack he gains for each sidekick.
So that's how you clear your opponents field. But how do we actually do enough damage if you opponent has Mera?
Here is the supporting cast, with a blurb about why they are so good:
Kobold - Greater Humanoid: 1 cost and swarm, it's never going to be a character we attack through with, but gives us some nice ramp and is good fodder for our next card...
Blue Eyes White Dragon - Monstrous Dragon: here mainly for the global which makes Red Eyes cheaper, keeps our churn up, but also gives us an excellent way to get rid of any extra characters on your opponents side. Knock out a Kobold to get rid of an opponents character? Yes please. Using Fighting basically makes any character in a Solomon Grundy during the attack step, speaking of which...
Solomon Grundy - Buried on a Sunday: if Fighting makes everyone else into a Grundy for Blue Eyes to control then it makes Grundy ridiculous. Knock out Grundy and your opponent has to knock out two of his characters. Other than that his attack stats avoid Mera all together and this combo is already well proven.
Human Torch - Matchstick: A max of 4 attack and an ability that enables you to buy a dice and potentially field it that same turn? Once you get one out you wait until you can drop the Red Eyes Fighting combo and buy a bunch of them, field a character and roll 'em. His fielding cost is a little unfortunate though - if fielding cost does prove a problem you could try the rare Curse of Dragon, Skeletal Structure though that can be effected by Mera.
(That's the core. But the other characters I've included are Harpie Lady - Cyber Slash,: to guarantee sidekicks in the field/ Morphing Jar - All Seeing Eye: punishes your opponent for using Blue-Eyes for the discount, works great for PXG match-ups and has a top level attack of 4/ Angel - Soaring: great stats and a useful alternate win condition/ Resurrection for the global and a potential turn two purchase of Red Eyes.)
The strategy for this team is fairly obvious, a turn one purchase of either Morphing Jar or Fighting depending on whether they have a PXG or are going to be using your Blue Eyes ability. Field a sidekick in preparation for a Blue Eyes use, and Resurrect. By turn two or three you should have a Red Eyes in your bag. Once he is fielded start fielding as many sidekicks as you can, while getting a Human Torch active and putting enough in the used pile ready to trigger his ability. By the time you are ready to swing through no matter how many masks they have ready for Mera you won't be stopped.
From trying this build out a couple of times I've got to say that the combo works really well and is difficult to stop, the same methods as used to stop Gobby will be effective against this team, but if your opponent starts doing this then you will be getting a boat load of energy to spend so just get some Grundy's out and keep your opponent rolling their win conditions.
Thanks for reading, you can see the full team here if you would like. Please let me know what you think, and if there is anything I can work on let me know.
