George Papadopoulos' status as a volunteer doesn't necessarily serve as a bulletproof vest for President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign, should prosecutors try to hold the organization responsible for his actions.
"It doesn't matter whether he's a volunteer or if he's paid," Jeff Ifrah, who practices white-collar criminal defense in Washington, told Bloomberg Law. "Liability follows knowledge and intent."
Companies are typically held responsible for the actions of employees and volunteers in civil court, Rena Steinzor, a professor at the University of Maryland's law school, told Bloomberg Law. That means the injured party sues the company.
Criminal charges over problems caused by a company's minions are less common, Tom McGarity, a law professor at the University of Texas at Austin, said.
But it does happen. Industries with high risk of injury to workers or the public, like oil refining and the food and drug sector, have a track record of being held criminally responsible for workers' actions, Steinzor said.
Those industries don't usually use volunteers, so the relevant caselaw typically covers situations involving employees. Holding a political campaign responsible for Papadopoulos' criminal actions as a volunteer has even less legal territory firmly charted out, she said.
Rendi Mann-Stadt, an employment attorney at Ward and Smith P.A. in Asheville, N.C., uses a volunteer at a scuba-diving school as an example of how a company can incur civil liability. If someone died during the lesson and it turns out the volunteer trainer didn't have scuba certification, the company could be sued for not ensuring the person was properly licensed, Mann-Stadt told Bloomberg Law.
Whether it's an employee or a volunteer, companies can avoid liability if they prove the person was not authorized to perform certain acts. For example, if someone is passing out cookies at a Red Cross blood drive but later decides to crash the donation truck, the organization might not be responsible if the individual's actions went beyond the assigned duties, Mann-Stadt said.
The amount of control a company exerts over its workers provides a gray area in which companies can argue the employees or volunteers went rogue. The more control the company has over them, the more likely the company will be held liable for their actions, Mann-Stadt said.
At the same time, companies shouldn't avoid supervision altogether. In the scuba example, a company must exercise some oversight to make sure the instructor has proper licensing, Mann-Stadt said.
It's a balancing act, she said.
Each case is unique, but to prevent their own liability, companies should provide training and hold volunteers to the same safety standards as employees. They should not, however, exercise direct control over the volunteers' day-to-day activities, she said. Similarly, channels should be in place for volunteers to report their concerns, but businesses should avoid giving volunteers performance evaluations.
Buying insurance is also a wise move if a company is going to bring on unpaid help, Mann-Stadt said.
But the most important piece of advice is "don't be fooled by labels," Mann-Stadt said. Calling someone a volunteer doesn't immediately get a company off the hook for the person's actions, she said.
Control and level of supervision could play a big role in Papadopoulos' case if prosecutors try to hold Trump's campaign responsible for his actions.
Papadopoulos pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his Russian connections during his stint with the campaign. The White House responded by calling his role a "volunteer position." Trump chimed in by tweeting "few people knew the young, low level volunteer named George, who has already proven to be a liar."
Papadopoulos identifies himself as a "former advisor" for Trump's presidential campaign on his Twitter and LinkedIn accounts.
A court would need to find that Papadopoulos' supervisors either knew about his actions or directed him to perform them, Ifrah said. He didn't speculate on whether that evidence exists but said calling Papadopoulos a volunteer was more likely a public relations maneuver by the White House than a legal tactic.
Being a volunteer implies Papadopoulos didn't have any direct orders to speak with Russian officials, but "if he had been doing that as a paid employee, the implication would be he was being instructed to do that," he said.
The White House told Bloomberg Law to reach out to the campaign for specifics regarding Papadopoulos' employment status. The campaign couldn't be reached for comment.

The Recreational Vehicle Industry Association (www.rvia.org) estimates that as of April 2017, nearly 9 million American households own a Recreational Vehicle (RV), a 16% increase from 2001 and a 64% gain from 1980, while the RV industry provided a $50 billion economic impact to the U.S. in 2015. Clearly, for many people, RV camping represents a chosen way to spend their leisure time.
What makes camping so attractive to so many people? Many things: a sense of instant community and togetherness, shared activities with close family and friends, and a sense of reconnecting with nature to simpler times gone by, reminding many of their childhood experiences.
Through a series of travels to several locations within the US, this project explores feelings of connectedness and camaraderie, along with the characters that form the camping experience and the road trip along the way. In a real sense, the destination is experienced through the journey, with the sights along the way as the way points not to be missed.
Their stories – why, how, and with whom they choose to participate, will provide the backstory to the images of this camping life, and the roads travelled along the way.

Recognize it, sometimes you can win it. You are a normal user, very satisfied with the performance that your device gives you, but on certain occasions you are tempted to try the different public betas that are coming out. You want changes, but you do not dare. Do not suffer, with these simple steps we assure you that you will not be disappointed and you will be able to calm your growing hype.
Previous considerations
Before launching to install a beta, you must keep in mind that it is very possible that things are not going well, that is to say, they are versions in development that can work in an unstable way . This possibility of crash is made more evident in the first editions of betas. It is obvious that a beta 1 will be worse than 4.
If something can go wrong, it will go wrong. So to heal you in health, it is very important that you make a backup of your device, either in iCloud or on a computer. The chances of having to restore are high .
Sign up for Apple's Public Beta Program
Simple and free. The advantage is that as a member of the Beta Software Program Apple, you can register your devices to access the public betas and test the latest news. Simply access your device from this link and follow the steps.
Download the profile and install it
Once you have registered your device, download your device the corresponding profile. It is necessary for him to locate the betas that Apple is taking out .
Wi-Fi, iCloud password and handheld charger
The betas usually have a weight of at least 2 GB and are therefore a challenge. And not only that, they require enough battery, so do it with your device well connected to the power . The iCloud password is well present, you will need it and if you have forgotten it, everything becomes very cumbersome.
Mentally prepare yourself
Once installed, the beta may not satisfy you. High battery consumption, faults, reboots ... All this can happen, so do not punish yourself for it. If you decide to go back, you can follow the steps indicated here .
So you know, lose your fear and dive into the exciting world of trial versions .

My wishes for 2015; OK these are a bit of wishful thinking on my part – but how many of you would agree with me?
I'm doing them as a list as they cover my wishes about everything that I can think of – some fanciful, but most straight forward. Here goes!
- To qualify as a candidate for consideration as an MP the person must have worked in the "Real World" as a factory hand/health care worker/ junior office clerk/shop worker
- Any MP who wishes to be attached to the MOD must have served for at least 3 years in the armed forces – and not behind a desk.
- All interest payments on Private Funding Initiative for hospitals to be tied to the base rate of the Bank of England.
- Any MP wanting to be attached to education must have worked for at least one year as a class room assistant
- All bonus payments to be abolished, in their place should be an enhanced monthly salary for those who deserve it.
- GP surgeries to be open at weekends and in the evenings, as should dentists and other medical practitioners
- All citizens who have committed fraud should face justice and that includes MPs and their ilk.
- Police numbers to be increased, but only if they are frontline staff. The paperwork should be reduced by removing all unnecessary forms.
- Late night ambulance staff to be issued with stab vests
- All employees should receive the basic living wage as a base line. If a company needs help, then let the government help them.
- ATOS to be abolished and replaced by a panel of GPs, all applicants to this panel should not have benefits withdrawn and must be treated as human beings.
- All benefit offices must be able to employ enough staff so that claims are dealt with properly and with no delay. A six week wait for working tax credits is not acceptable.
- No football ground should charge supporters more than an average day's pay for the working man.
- All Premiership teams must employ 75% home players, to ensure that the Home Countries have enough well trained talented players to represent their country.
- The evil of Jihadism to be wiped from the face of the earth
- A cure for all as yet incurable illnesses
If I've upset anyone with my list, why don't you do your own – now I'll get my head back out of the clouds and get on with the real 2015.

I spent sometime in Warsong Gulch last night. I'm trying to use up some of the blinding powder I have in my inventory. So, I've been using the blind skill a lot in Warsong. When in a small group fighting another small group, I stealth, blind one player, and stun lock another. I figure taking one player out of the fight with blind for up to ten seconds plus using stun lock on another is a semi-powerful crowd control option. Not as powerful (or annoying) as a warlock's Howl of Terror though. The key is going into a fight late because I get to choose a player who is not taking damage. Just like with sap, it's annoying when I use blind only to have it broken by another's player damage. Don't waste my blinding powder fools!
Some good blind tips ripped from WoWwiki:
- When fighting rogues, spamming your blind ability can give you an opportunity to break out of a stunlock.
- In PvP, using blind gives you plenty of time to bandage and restealth, so consider alternating uses of vanish and blind as means of restealthing in combat.

This volume provides an unprecedented insight into current approaches to crosslinguistic influence (CLI). The collection investigates a range of themes including linguistic relativity, the possible contributions of neurolinguistics, the problem of cognitive development and the role of the frequency of structures in acquisition from distinct, overlapping and complementary perspectives. Chapters focusing on vocabulary, morphosyntactic categories, semantic structures, and phonetic and phonological structures feature in the volume, as do over 20 languages, in order to offer new insights into both theoretical and empirical issues in CLI, including the consequences of great or little similarity in structures between languages. The relevance of CLI research for teaching is discussed in a number of chapters, as is the phenomenon of multilingualism. The collection will appeal to researchers, graduate and postgraduate students, teachers and professionals interested in the field of CLI in SLA.
The best minds working on crosslinguistic influence are gathered in this collection. The result is a fascinating empirical and intellectual journey of this field that all second language acquisition and bilingualism researchers must read!- Lourdes Ortega, Georgetown University, USA
To improve our understanding of the role and nature of crosslinguistic influence remains a key task for research on SLA and bilingualism studies. This exciting volume presents new perspectives on this issue by leading scholars in the field, covering a wide range of topics, methods, and theoretical positions. It will be of interest to researchers, teachers and students alike.- Marianne Gullberg, Lund University, Sweden
Compared to more substantial anthologies on the market, this collection in affordable, thought-provoking and topical, earning its place on personal bookshelves as much as within institutional libraries.- BAAL News, 110, 2017 - Simon Williams, University of Sussex, UK
Rosa Alonso Alonso holds a PhD in Linguistics from the University of Santiago de Compostela and works as an Associate Professor at the University of Vigo, Spain. Her research interests include crosslinguistic influence, motion events and academic writing. Since 2000 she has been the editor-in-chief of Vigo International Journal of Applied Linguistics.

I few months ago I was in a ward council meeting that was hosted by Elder Dallin H. Oaks, a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. The meeting was created to assist bishops in developing effective and efficient ward councils.
Elder Oaks, an attorney by profession spoke of an incident he had as a young lawyer. At the time he primarily practiced real estate law focusing on contracts, deeds and trusts. It was at this ward council meeting that he recalled an event that took place years ago. A colleague of Elder Oaks' passed away and many of the attorneys from his firm gathered at the funeral home to attend the viewing. The deceased individual was very wealthy, had amassed a great fortune and hundreds of parcels of real estate. This group of budding attorneys conversed over the casket about the vast wealth and real estate holdings of this great man. He had amassed wealth beyond comprehension and his fortune was scattered across the whole of the world. Thinking like an attorney, one of the men asked, "I wonder exactly how much real estate he left behind?" Without missing a beat, the younger Dallin Oaks simply said, "all of it."
And so it is.
When we leave mortality we leave all of our physical possessions, even our body, for a time, will stay behind on this earth. Additionally, all our material wealth will remain here as we quietly bypass this life and advance to the next. Why is this on my mind? Why on this blog?
I can't help but think of the purpose of our life. What is the purpose of life? Are we resigned to a life of pain and heartache? Or are we just here to build faith in a coming world–a world where our pain and grief will finally be removed from us?
There is much more to life than faith alone, your life has a divine purpose. It is this divinity that invites us to ask and find; knock and open.
I know that our Heavenly Father has prepared a marvelous plan for our happiness. As a man who struggles with the temptations that accompany SSA I know that this happiness at times is difficult to understand. There is something special that envelopes your whole soul when you know that God has a plan designed exclusively for you. Understanding this divine plan makes it is easier to understand why you are on this earth. I know that God wants all of His children to progress and become more like Him. As such, our mortality provides each of us with opportunities to grow and progress. It is here on Earth that we receive a physical body, exercise the agency necessary to teach us to choose between good and evil. We are here to gain the experience that helps us become more like our Father in Heaven and form family relationships (and friendships) that have the ability to become eternal.
How easy it is to lose sight of the plan of Happiness by getting caught up in our personal struggles!
In real life, we face actual, not imagined, hardships. There is pain—physical, emotional, and spiritual. There are heartbreaks when circumstances are very different from what we had anticipated. There is injustice when we do not seem to deserve our situation. There are disappointments when someone we trusted failed us. There are health and financial setbacks that can be disorienting. There may be times of question when a matter of doctrine or history is beyond our current understanding.
When difficult things occur in our lives, what is our immediate response? Is it confusion or doubt or spiritual withdrawal? Is it a blow to our faith? Do we blame God or others for our circumstances? Or is our first response to remember who we are—that we are children of a loving God? Is that coupled with an absolute trust that He allows some earthly suffering because He knows it will bless us, like a refiner's fire, to become like Him and to gain our eternal inheritance?
Recently, I was in a meeting with Elder Jeffrey R. Holland. In teaching the principle that mortal life can be agonizing but our hardships have eternal purpose—even if we do not understand it at the time—Elder Holland said, "You can have what you want, or you can have something better." –Elder Donald L. Hallstrom Of the Presidency of the Seventy <READ THIS COMPLETE TALK
We are children of a Heavenly family. A loving Heavenly Father created us in His image and because of that he literally is our Father in Heaven. He endowed you and I with our individual agency. During our pre-mortal life we prepared ourselves for our earthly experience. In the pre-mortal life we were taught of the Plan of Salvation and the mission of Jesus Christ in that plan. We shouted for joy when we learned that we could receive a body, come to earth, take upon ourselves sacred and special covenants and return to live with God again. This is part of your divine purpose.
I know I am not the only person in life that asks, "why me?" Why do I have a same sex attraction? Why am I so different? What did I do to deserve this? I don't know the answers to all these questions. But here is what I do know: I chose to partake in the Plan of Salvation. I was among the two-thirds of the host of heaven that chose to follow the plan of our Father. The more I study the scriptures and of mercy and grace, the more I appreciate the life that I have been given. That appreciation doesn't dissolve the unhappy times I have…the times when my attraction to other men is so strong it almost feels debilitating. Knowing that a power greater than myself is in control makes dealing with the struggles of SSA more bearable.
The truth is, happiness is not synonymous with pleasure or even freedom from pain. Those who expect life to be carefree do not understand that joy is the brother and child of tribulation. True happiness comes from the personal, spiritual growth that rises out of the fires of mortal experience. "It must needs be," Lehi taught, "that there is an opposition in all things." Without that opposition, neither righteousness nor joy is possible.
Some of the trials we face in life we impose on ourselves. Others are caused by the sins and weaknesses of our fellow beings; some just come because we live in a fallen, imperfect world. There are even some that are caused by reasons we may never understand in mortality. Still, the sources of our trials are not nearly as important as the fact that they exist and the way we deal with them. The Savior himself underscored that fact for the Prophet Joseph Smith. At one of the lowest ebbs in the Prophet's life, Joseph cried, "O God, where art thou? …"How long shall thy hand be stayed, and thine eye, yea thy pure eye, behold from the eternal heavens the wrongs [committed against] thy people?"
The Lord's answer was patiently soft: "My son, peace be unto thy soul; thine adversity and thine afflictions shall be but a small moment;
"And then, if thou endure it well, God shall exalt thee on high." (D&C 121:1–2, 7–8.)
The Lord then listed tribulations the Prophet could face (and indeed, during his lifetime, did face), ending with words that undoubtedly sustained him through the terrible days ahead: "Above all, if the very jaws of hell shall gape open the mouth wide after thee, know thou, my son, that all these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy good.
"The Son of Man hath descended below them all. Art thou greater than he?" (D&C 122:7–8.)
Trials, then, are a fundamental part of the plan of life. But that doesn't mean we have no hope for happiness in mortality. The key to happiness here and eternal joy hereafter is the atonement of Jesus Christ.
So I circle back to the group of lawyers conversing over a casket. How much of our worldly possessions will we leave on this earth? All of them.
How much pornography do I need to get rid of? All of it
How many inappropriate apps do I need to delete from my phone? All of them
How many days a week should I ask for help from a loving Savior? All of them
How many people love and support me? All of them
If we are to learn something of ourselves, we must embrace our trials and learn in our experiences. We have a promise that these experiences will be for our good. Try the Lord and ask him to assist you. I know what it's like to believe that the gospel has been restored in its fullest and yet I have an attraction that is not consistent with that revelation. How is it that I believe so fully in the gospel, but am given a trial that is designed to keep me from acting upon it? I know we have the promises of celestial marriage and exaltation and eternal life, we have endowments, we have the Atonement and the plan of a merciful and kind Father. This knowledge doesn't negate all my pain, but at times it provides me with enough.
Today I choose to work on my individual worth and strengthening my personal testimony, all of it.

For the past hundred and thirty five years Vaillant have been at the forefront of the heating market. Over this period, they have often been the quickest to introduce new ways of heating the home to their customers. They were amongst the first to introduce water heaters in the early part of the twentieth century and introduced the most popular form of heater, the Combi boiler thirty five years ago.
Vaillant take a continuous improvement to customer service, whilst at the same time looking ahead to make sure their products are the best available in terms of efficiency and low emissions.
Vaillant, Europe's leading supplier of water heaters aims to make choosing the correct heater for your home as easy as possible. Take a look at the Vaillant website and you will see an easy to use chart describing the most suitable heating systems for each type of dwelling. For example, if you have a three or four bedroomed home you will find suggestions for the most suitable boiler, depending on whether you prefer an Open Vent system, a System boiler or a Combi boiler.
The law requires that boilers fitted since 2005 are either high efficiency or condenser boilers (which is their alternative name). These boilers have a heat exchanger which produces extra heat from the flue gasses by recovering warmth from the condensing water vapour. This has the effect of preheating the water, meaning less wasted heat is lost.
Many of the boilers in the Vaillant ecoTec range have been awarded the SEDBUK 'A' rating, meaning that they are among the most efficient and can typically average ninety per cent efficiency, whilst older boilers can be as low as fifty six per cent. As a result, you may find yourself saving up to £240 a year in heating bills.
Vaillant produces a range of Combi boilers which provide heat for central heating, as well as providing you with hot water 'on demand'. Their range of ecoTec exclusive, plus and pro range boilers are easily programmable and have a two stage frost protections system. In addition, they have a comprehensive diagnostic and status system which allows you make sure that your system is working at its most efficient. Combi boilers are ideal for bungalows, loft conversions, small rooms, or if there are many people in the home requiring hot water.
System boilers are what you need if you have two or more bathrooms, low mains water pressure, or if you are upgrading your system from an old one. A System boiler such as the ecoTec 612, 624, or 637 can deliver hot water to several outlets at the same time due to its connection to a hot water cylinder, which is usually fitted in an airing cupboard.
Open vent systems are again useful for low pressure water areas or homes with two or more bathrooms and they can be worthwhile if you want to upgrade your system. However, as they require two tanks in the loft, many people decide to remove the tanks and opt for a System boiler or a Combi. Vaillant's ecoTec plus 415, 418, 428 and 438 provide a range of highly efficient boilers suitable for medium and larger sized homes.

Fieldwork survey for current and former student anthropologists02 Mar 2013
Kate Clancy directs readers' attention to a new research project examining the conditions under which students have field experiences in biological anthropology: "The Biological Anthropology Field Experiences Web Survey: Now Live".
We (Kate Clancy, Katie Hinde, Robin Nelson and Julienne Rutherford) invite you to participate in our Biological Anthropology Field Experiences Web Survey. The Biological Anthropology Field Experiences Web Survey is designed to solicit input on the ways in which fieldwork does or does not provide a safe scholarly and research environment for all. Rather than determining the total number of instances, or percentage risk of a negative experience, our interest is in gathering stories to inform Field Directors, faculty mentors, and other researchers and students on the scope of the problem, and identify some of the main contributory factors to a negative environment, both to encourage improvement and to identify future areas for research.
If youre over 18 and have ever done research or been a student at a bio anthro field site, please take 20 minutes to fill out our survey.You can indicate interest at the end in participating in a follow-up phone interview. You can also enter the lottery at the end for a 1 in 10 chance of winning a $25 Amazon gift card.
It's an important project that is attempting to extend an understanding of field mentoring experiences beyond anecdotes. We all know of really good and really bad field experiences of our colleagues (or ourselves). If you have fieldwork experience as a student – whether or not you continued on toward more anthropology training – I encourage you to fill out the survey. Obviously, more people who have stuck around for training in anthropology are likely to hear about this survey, so please try to spread the word as much as possible to those who may have gone on to different careers.

All the plot stuff is fairly predictable and pedestrian although even there I do love how classical it is in scope and style (Greek tragedy in innercity Lisbon). But what's great about the film is the details. These characters and spaces feel so lived in, so real that it's almost uncomfortable. Canijo does a really great job using constrained spaces to reflect character insights (reminded me of Nobuhiro Suwa in that respect). Some really interesting framing choices throughout as well… I particularly love how he uses the sides of the frame to great effect in a lot of the scenes. Everyone here is trapped.
Even better is the use of sound. This is a world where there's never any peace to be had. It's a world constantly inhabited by background sounds – the TV blaring, neighbors fighting, dogs barking. Canijo even allows multiple conversations on screen at the same time. This could feel gimmicky I suppose but it works here and adds to the feeling of claustrophobia and entrapment and I quite like how he uses a natural split screen effect in one of these scenes.
What is also remarkable is Canijo's understanding of these characters and their relationships. These are not revealed via huge dramatic moments but rather through the most quotidian of interactions. Sure, the film has it's big melodramatic tragic scenes but even more memorable (to me anyway) are the small humiliations these characters constantly suffer at other people's hands.

Running for County Chair
D. Bora Harris sets priorities in campaign
4/11/2018, 12:03 p.m.
Championing the causes of the elderly, homeless people, affordable housing, and the interests of children, D. Bora Harris, a business specialist and consultant from the black community, formally launched her candidacy for Multnomah County Chair on Friday at the Multnomah County Building in southeast Portland.
Harris has a Masters degree in public administration, experience in both the public and private sectors and has been active in politics and various community organizations for decades. She is president of D. Harris Leadership Institute, a limited liability corporation where she developed the "Move Beyond Your Walls Initiative."
"The race is about us," Harris said, in a news erlease announcing her candidacy in the May Primary Election. "We the people of Multnomah County are in desperate need of a county chair who reflects good and fair government. Multnomah County is a shining county, yet there are so many places and spaces where that glitter does not glow."
Harris calls for a solution and resolution driven agenda on the county level to improve the quality of life for our elderly and uproot the causes of high dropout rates and excessive absenteeism among our children in schools.
We need to provide "livable" places for our homeless to call home and provisions for affordable housing in places where neighbors know our name," she said.
Harris takes aim at current Chair Deborah Kafoury who is running for re-election. She cites Kafoury for failings to address what she calls institutional systemic racism in the county workforce and blasts the county's top elected official for a vulgar attack against another member of the county commission earlier this year. Kafoury later apologized for calling Commissioner Loretta Smith a b---- during a public meeting.
Harris says she would like to see creation on an Ombudsmen office to work as advocates for the public and help resurrect a merit council to represent union and non-union workers respectively when a work-related complaint needs to be filed.
Harris cites her business experience managing facilities in Georgia, Oregon and southwest Washington for a multi million dollar private sector corporation. In the public sector, she has helped navigate Oregonians from diverse socio-economic origins through complex government programs as a consultant.
She received her Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Arkansas and Master of Public Administration from Portland State University. A licensed evangelist within the Church of God in Christ international community, Harris commented "whatever endeavor I am called to pursue, I place that spark of hope in my heart and walk through it in faith. Having a purpose and a passion for the people I serve gives me the courage, the determination, and belief that my run for this race is not in vain."
"When we as leaders remove ourselves from our comfortable four wall environment into the communities, onto steps, stairways and paths less traveled, we then hear the real voices of the people in our communities. We must work together to make a difference and inspire solutions," she said.

Few of us actually enjoy chores, but if you use a Swiffer or other floor wipe, this adorable little accessory can make cleaning the floor a little more cheerful. The plush penguin doesn't just look cute, it also helps store extra pads and other cleaning supplies in his playful belly.
If you're absolutely in love with the critter but don't use a Swiffer-style cleaner, you can also use the penguin to cover your tissue box cover -though then you'll miss getting to see him slide on his belly along your floor while you clean.
Designed and sold by Japanese retailer Felissimo, the cute cover can be yours for only $33 -plus international shipping charges. The penguin is only one of the many precious household products available in Felissimo's You + More line that also includes great animal items like this cuddly bear pillow, this adorable lap heater and this bedding set that lets you pretend to be a panda in the circus while you sleep.

It's Spring!
Exhibit A:
Look at that jump in water temperature at Duck on the switch to a NE wind. Somewhat paradoxical that a "cold front" wind would jump the water temperature, but that's what happens when onshore winds blow warmer surface water into the surf zone. The fishing rose precipitously with the increase in water temperature as well. Lots of puppy drum and trout with some big bluefish on the northern Outer Banks. Avalon Pier in KDH reported some big trout after dark last night. Further south, it is mostly the same, just more consistent. Big drum have been hitting the Point and areas south for a couple weeks, and big bluefish are everywhere along the coast in good numbers (the first big blues showed in early March given the warm late winter), along with the standard spring fare of blowtoads, sea mullet, black drum, and even some (very) early big pompano. There have also been lots of small stripers mixed with the pups and trout in the surf zone north of Oregon Inlet, along with a small handful of big stripers. The coastal fishing is hot in other words.
The rivers are generally fishing well also, when the flow and clarity is reasonable. The usual for this time of year. Hickory shad are just about done, but American shad are in full swing, and stripers are on the move. With the very warm weather we are having, the up-river migration and spawn will be peaking shortly. Lots of white bass on the Piedmont rivers, although the big females may already be gone.
I've gotten a few river trips in, along with a nice February weekend at the coast, that although pretty, didn't produce anything. A mix of pics below. Will be fishing next week, somewhere.
Water temps, for the record: Norther OBX: low 50s (on SW winds) to mid-upper 50s (on NE). South, the range is more like low 60s to upper 60s.

Had fun making this for their senior Chihuahua. Prince Man-man seems to be enjoying his new throne.
Custom, Hand-Crafted Wood Designs
Had fun making this for their senior Chihuahua. Prince Man-man seems to be enjoying his new throne.
10 new Rust-oleum colors and you want me to pick 1? WOW!!
My next group: Ya Nailed IT! will be making Mason Jar Wallhangings. I just cut out my wooden Mason Jar sample and used Rust-oleum Painter's Touch Ultra Cover 2X Primer and was trying to figure out what color to paint the background. FOUND IT!! The Rust-oleum High Gloss Turquoise Sky will look amazing on this. I think it will make it look like sea glass. Hope I win!! YAY Rust-Oleum!! Guess I need to go buy all the colors, my class is going to go ga-ga over all of them!! Great products!
As soon as I saw this, I knew exactly what I was going to do with it. A handyman for our office gave it to me; all rusty with old wood stuck in it. He said he found it in an old 1800's barn that he tore down and had no use for it.
I, personally thought I wanted to leave it rusty but when I told my husband, you should have seen his face.
I decided to go ahead and paint it. First it was going to be black but I love Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch Multi Purpose Spray Paint in Colonial Red. I have used it in several other projects around our home. I figured if I didn't like it, I would change it to Rustoleum in Black.
I took the whole pulley apart, removed the wood, just spray painted it with Rustoleum and VOILA!! Not one bit of sandpaper was harmed in the making of this lovely light fixture!!
See the transformation:
Okay, okay, sneak peek. I am so excited. The pantry door is almost finished. Not a great "before" but you get the idea. Thoughts of the "after"? I'm using the same cabinet fronts, just playing around with them.
I have a looooonnnnggg way to go to finish the whole kitchen. This has me pumped though!!
More updates to follow.
Who but I would receive the most amazing gifts from my class? A 🔨 shaped cookie cutter, Starbucks Gift card and turkey jerky!! Love my class and what I do. Please spread the word so we can teach more kids and adults to disconnect and learn new skills!
Thank you Liam, Lisa, Seth, Simon, Silas, Greg, Ronnie, Sadie and Sarah, Bob and Wilma. We had a great party and even made some special items that I can't tell because they are gifts for others. Next class is January 4th, 2018, See you all then!!

We have so been blessed the last few months. Some days we weren't sure but it always seems to turn around.
There is so much to share since my last post.
Charity organizations we are teaming up with:
Rulon International, located in beautiful St. Augustine, Florida: http://rulonco.com/ are the number 1 supplier of wood ceilings and acoustical walls. They began this program and have been so helpful in assisting me in bringing it to Georgia where it can help so many sick, injured, those with ongoing problems and sometimes even those children under hospice care.
People ask, "how can I help?"
The classes that I teach at Creative Learning Studios are assembling, painting and decorating each week. I have another 40 that are nearly ready for painting and then delivery. So if you want to help, we could use paints, stickers, embellishments; anything that a child might want in a decorated fun guitar. Also, if you know of an ill child, one with ongoing medical problems, etc. please contact us so we may put a guitar in their hands.
This year our family is hosting 3 wonderful children for the holidays; I also have them throughout the year. Won't you help out with a mobile basketball goal, basketball, games, etc. "My kids" would very much appreciate it. The children of CCCV love arts and crafts so if you have an overabundance of paints, stickers, paper, anything at all, they would love it. You could box up a "Craft Kit" for each child. You would be amazed at what children create with just a few items and it will also make them feel loved at the same time. There are more than 30 children there as foster children.
I'm sure most of you have heard of this movement in the Fayette County, Georgia area. We plan on hosting many gatherings where adults and children will paint; the rocks will then be distributed around the city. What a great way for the community to come together and support each other. For this project, if you would like to donate Large River rocks, paints, paint brushes and spray sealant.
After all this, how do you want to help? You can drop off any of the above items at my home workshop, at the State Farm Office where I work a few days a week (both in Fayetteville) or at the Studio where I teach. (in Peachtree City)
I would love to include as many people as possible. If you are unable to assist in donations, will you join us and say a prayer of encouragement and come paint with us sometime!
Thanks for reading!

Pico do Fogo is Cape Verde's most active volcano. Fogo is a large volcano with a summit caldera. In it grows the current volcanic cone. In November 2014 an eruption began. On the flank of the current cone a fissure was opened. Strombolian eruptions occur from several vents and lava flows moved in direction of the village of Portela. After a few hours the visitor center was destroyed and two weeks later most houses were burried under lava.

May 2nd, 2016
Hey hey hey! It's Eeeeeellder Cline! Giving feedback on another great week! This week was the bomb! We had some interesting moments and got to experience a couple cool things.
This week was an amazing one because we got to meet Elder Jeffrey R Holland and even got to shake his hand. it was a great experience and this is the closest I've ever gotten to an apostle! Elder Holland's training was on analogies in the Bible and how we can help our investigators understand principles of the Gospel better. We joined with the other Las Vegas mission when we did and although I thought the rivalry between our missions would have been intense it turned out for the best, and nobody got hurt.
Aside from that I had a couple of interesting things come in the mail including my "trunky papers", from what our mission calls it. Basically it's papers that we need to fill out to bring back memories of our mission and of good experiences we had.I also am going to be filling out the "my plan" online course to plan out what I am going to do for getting home.
Aside from that we had a baptism on Saturday for Autumn! The way we ran into her is when she bore her testimony on a fast Sunday and enjoyed expressed how she love the church. When we saw that we were not going to give up that opportunity and now she is a member of the church because her boyfriend baptized her.
I have three weeks to go but I am not giving up yet. I love all y'all!
Elder Cline out!

As a fitness enthusiast and social media influencer myself, usually I have to wear makeup when I need to be in front of the camera. Since my wedding engagement is just around the corner, it is important for me to look good. Seems that Rysya skin care is a new solution for me. Well, I have to admit I do not have good skin condition yet and I'm looking forward what does Rysya skin care can do for me.
I have to admit that I'm very lazy to use skin care, but at one point, I have to change my habits for a better life.I have been using this skincare for almost a week and I would say it does show a little bit of result. Seems that I have to use it frequently and don't be lazy hahaha.

"Glasgow remains one of the most eclectic architectural cities in Europe, with a wealth of extravagant Victorian buildings in red and blond sandstone with artistic flourishes," says our expert, Gavin Bell. "Look out for Italianate palazzo frontages, Art Nouveau masterpieces reminiscent of Gaudi, classical Greek and Roman motifs, and the lavish Spanish Renaissance style of its Kelvingrove Art Gallery."
The city's finest architect, Charles Rennie Mackintosh, has works scattered across the city, including the Glasgow School of Art, described as "the only art school in the world where the building is worthy of the subject", House for an Art Lover, an elegant country retreat in a public park, and The Lighthouse, the former offices of the Glasgow Herald newspaper.

Here's a conundrum: evolution is all about helping organisms produce more offspring. If a trait makes an animal more likely to die, that trait eventually disappears in favor of traits that help them live. But even if you never suffer from a single disease or injury, you're still going to die of old age. So why hasn't evolution put a stop to aging? According to researchers at the University of Arizona, it's because it's mathematically impossible.
Hurry Up And Wait
The current explanation for why evolution hasn't removed aging from the equation is that aging only becomes a problem after you're all done having children. When you can't produce offspring, evolution is done with you. (Why you stop reproducing at all is another question entirely). But evolutionary biology researchers Paul Nelson and Joanna Masel at the University of Arizona say it's more fundamental than that: aging is the price of admission into the multicellular organisms club.
The problem comes down to the two things that happen to aging cells: they either slow down or speed up. You can see cells slow down as you go gray, when your hair cells stop producing pigment; and as you get wrinkles, when your skin stops producing the collagen and elastin that keep it smooth and hydrated. That's the kind of aging we're all accustomed to.
When cells speed up their growth rate, that's when people get worried. That can cause cancer cells to form. But despite how scary the C-word can be, cancer cells are just as much a part of aging as gray hair or wrinkles. It's just when they cause symptoms that they become a problem. For example, half of men over the age of 60 have prostate cancer, but it usually doesn't develop into anything harmful and most end up dying of some other cause.
Between A Clock And A Hard Place
Nelson and Masel modeled the evolution of the traits that make cells slow down and speed up, and what they found was pretty definitive. If you find a way to keep cells from slowing down — hooray, no more gray hair or wrinkles! — fast-growing cancer cells will take over and kill you. If you find a way to keep cells from speeding up — hooray, we found the cure for cancer! — sluggish, poorly functioning cells will accumulate and kill you.
"Aging is mathematically inevitable — like, seriously inevitable," Masel said in a press release. "There's logically, theoretically, mathematically no way out." Being multicellular means your cells will compete with each other. Throw off that balance, and you make things worse. We can lengthen human life, but we can't stop death, and that makes it even more important to embrace the time you've got.

Last Saturday I went with my roommates to Ottawa for the day. Every winter (so I've been told/read), they have a whole list of events and fun things planned. So, my roommates and I went and ventured and walked (a lot!), and, generally, just had fun.
My roommates as we wandered around the city, trying on dollar store crowns. :)
It was a lot of fun, and I'm definitely glad we went. Now, time to get on to organizing all those pictures! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend. :)

Senseless Messages.
I really hate senseless conversations/messages. It irritates me for some reason.
The Indigent
This "discourse" was formed in my mind after I talked with an officemate a week ago, since they were talking about Divisoria. I asked her how it was nowadays. She answered that it was basically the same, except for the increase in the number of Aetas begging for money and picking-up trampled vegetables.
I was saddened by the fact that these indigenous people had to experience these things. Minority na nga sila, they still had to live a subsistence existence. Of course their plight touched the messianic complex in me.
I can't entirely blame the incompetence of past administrations for their failure to take care of the Aetas' welfare, since they are the ones who refuse to interact with the "lowlanders".
The question now in my mind is: is it okay for us to educate or teach these people modern methods in order to support their daily needs? In short, are they willing to learn new technology that would alter their way of life? Remember, we are also trying to preserve our history, our roots for us to remember where we came from. Teaching them would demolish their traditions, much like what the Spaniards did to the alibata written on banana plants and leaves. Are we willing to teach them the future at the same time lose the past?
It's the nostalgia that sets in me. Our ancestors have lived in our archipelago for the last thousands of years. In other countries, their settlers have established great civilizations that we have become great powers of today.
What hurts me more is not our lack of support for these peoples, rather, it is the lack of respect for our fading heritage.

Staring at the Ceiling in Silence
My sister and her family left for a month-long vacation this morning for the US. I thought that I'd be enjoying the silence brought about by their absence. I'm so wrong. I'm going to stare at the ceiling in silence tonight, wondering if I'm able to wake up from this dreaded loneliness that's gnawing me from inside out.
What does the future have in store for me?

Don't you just love bureaucracy? I mean, the power of paper that stops anarchy, and that which imposes the rule of the office?
In the office example, sobrang gulo when it comes to office supplies. Pero when we released a memo, ayun umayos na. At hindi na sila sabay-sabay kung kumuha.
During times of uncertainty, we need order by the rule of law.
But not red tape.
