|Cellar Holes
Ruins or cellar holes can be almost as interesting as complete buildings. With a little imagination, it's possible to imagine the old dwelling and its size, given the dimensions of the foundation.
This one on Baker Island is situated in a large orchard, or whats left of one. Plums or pears stand bare, but the different apple trees still struggle on. The dooryard still hosts a large currant bush, the rhubarb still flourishes, and a few peony stems struggle through the thick grass.
The depression is nearly filled with rotting timbers and bleached cedar shingles. Square hand-forged nails make the place look really old. Nearby, the line of a stone fence adds dimensions to the homestead.
|Franklin Stove
Pipes and a boiler or hot water heater rust in the sunlight; modern nails and metal rafter joists can be seen in the roof debris. These relics are evidence that the house was used later than some of the others.
|Root Cellar
A root cellar is visible, approximately 6 x 10 feet, dug deeper than the cellar floor, and lined with stones. Here many bushels of root vegetables could be stored for the winter, safe from freezing.
|Deer Bed
There are signs that many deer live on Baker Island now. Paths are everywhere through the tall grass. They eat the cranberries, raspberries, rose bushes, and any hard wood seedling. Only the spruce escapes.
This seems to be a sleeping area for a deer family, as the grass is flattened.

Protecting your business
While businesses get insurance for what are seen as 'essential' things such as public liability, loss or damage to business premises or company vehicles, what often gets overlooked is the loss of arguably their most valuable asset – their people.
After all, it is your people who ensure your business runs smoothly and without them (or you) your business would inevitably suffer and would function less efficiently.
Are you insured against the most damaging events?
Running a business always involves an element of uncertainty. Premises can be rebuilt and contents and material assets can be replaced, but the recovery of a person is not nearly as certain. This all makes it especially important to have the relevant protection policies in place to help ensure that your business can survive the loss of an individual, including you.
- Does my business rely heavily on one or more key individuals and could it survive without them?
- What would happen if a director/partner became critically ill, or worse, died?
- How would my clients, customers or even my competitors react to such news?
- How much money would I need to keep the business going and where would that money come from?
- Do I have a written agreement in place clearly documenting what would happen in the event of any of the above situations?
Ensuring a business is financially protected against such an eventuality can be complex but it's something that the team at David Allen Financial Services are well equipped to help with.

As all of us know, children grow in an amazingly fast rate, given that of this their clothes do unfit well the extended period of time. In addition, they play around a much more than us adults, meaning that their clothes will get worn out in a completely different fashion than adult clothing would. Buying clothes for Christmas is hence a hot choice for the children as well as for parents; they can skip buying clothes for awhile and look at on keeping gifts.
Note right now there can be some physical deviations from the development of babies very much a weeks. For example, many infants begin simply to walk after one year, and definately will start talking at about 2-3 a lot of years. However, we can direct the child's development inside the first year in finest direction and help him to develop properly, for example, the actual daily exercises and massage, as well as simple educational games grade 6.

These are toy blocks, balls, cars, and other counting figures. This is refrain from confusing your son or daughter. Using a pair of toys with different colors is fine.

We spent a New year's Eve together once and when I picked her up in my crummy little just-the-basics (you had to roll the windows up and down by hand) used Colt station wagon she reacted like she'd just seen a whimsical drunken butterfly cross her vision. We spent most of the night at a star-studded party at Alana Stewart's (Rod's ex) that I found too boring so convinced her and our table mates—Neil Simon and Terri Garr—to go to a younger Hollywood party I knew of that was over crowded and much more lively.
Carrie was pretty much up for anything when I was around her, but with a steady smart ass commentary that made me feel like my mind was porridge, she was just so quick. I cherish every moment I spent with her and especially her generosity of spirit. I brought someone with me almost every year to that birthday bash, which she always let me know she didn't appreciate, she just invited me. But I was almost always the only non-star there, so I'd often bring a friend to have someone to talk to and she'd put up with it (even though she and I would talk, usually, with the handful of friends left after everyone departed).
I am so so sorry for her daughter and her mother and brother and all her family and friends and fans, all left without her way too soon. But having seen my first wife, the mother of my two oldest children, have her heart stop for several minutes and be brought back only to spend the next six years in a coma, (which was the first thing I thought of when I heard the news of Carrie's heart stopping while still on the plane before being revived after landing), I'm glad for Carrie that this didn't drag on.
We could have so used her wit and tenacity in the years ahead. Bye-bye beautiful.

When we are still thinking about getting over the festive days, Hollywood has celebrated on of its biggest events of the year. Marking it's 75th anniversary the Golden Globes celebrated its most claimed and remarkable ceremony. Preceded by the #MeToo movement and the recent #TimesUp campaign, strong and powerful speeches were shared. And, of course, awards were given to well deserved candidates. But, what has been shared about all that on Twitter? Let's discover it the Tweet Binder report.
#GoldenGlobes general statistics
As you may know (or not), Tweet Binder allows to analyze on real time and past data with no limits. #GoldenGlobes is a good example of how important is to set live data analysis to register big event's information. Not only to get to know its impact and social relevance. Also to be able to understand how the content has been shared and how its is consumed. For instance, looking at the #GoldenGlobes general statistics we can determine that most of the users that tweeted about it did it with RTs. While ten per cent of the tweets are original ones, most of the data analyzed are RTs.
#GoldenGlobes is the official hashtag of the awards. But, as it has been long proven, more than one hashtag is usually tweeted by the users to talk about the same topic. That's has happened here too. #GoldenGlobes is heavily used but hashtags like #TimesUp have had a huge relevance too. It is also significant that the hashtag #Globes75, also promoted as official, has not really used. It is important to pick up a right and recognizable hashtag to promote events or campaigns. They help to englobe the conversation and also get more accurate data. We, at Tweet Binder, can create reports that analyze more than one hashtag or account. But being precise is always better than offering different options.
#GoldenGlobes contributors influence
Another interesting fact about the report's data is the contributor influence. Not only the night and the ceremony was full with amazing actors and actresses. So did Twitter with influential accounts tweeting. From the accounts that have been tracked, it can be said that Twitter users with a significant impact tweeted about the #GoldenGlobes. In fact, it's quite remarkable that more than 16,600 account have over 5,000 followers. What's more, that the average number of followers of the contributors analyzed is a little over 8,000.
The data are great. There's no doubt about it. What Tweet Binder can assure you is that we are here to help you anytime you need. Wether you need to run a big report, like the Globes one, or a smaller analysis: trust Tweet Binder.
Not only to analyze your campaigns. You can also rely on our expertise to make your event memorable. Our custom services and our dedicated team is always ready to work hard to pursue your needs. Let's do it, set your goal and let us be part of you success. Contact us!

The BJP does not produce, write or direct movies, Union minister Suresh Prabhu today said, rubbishing allegations that the party was sponsoring an upcoming film, "Indu Sarkar", which is set against the Emergency period.
The BJP does not produce, write or direct movies, Union minister Suresh Prabhu today said, rubbishing allegations that the party was sponsoring an upcoming film, "Indu Sarkar", which is set against the Emergency period. He was reacting to a query on Congress leader Jyotiraditya Scindia's remarks last week who had claimed that the film was "sponsored". "We all know which person and organisations are behind this. We condemn the false depiction," Scindia had said without naming any party. The film, to be released in July, features actress Kirti Kulhari in the titular role of a poetess, who rises against a ruling government. Neil Nitin Mukesh plays a character believed to be based on Sanjay Gandhi. "The BJP does not produce, write or direct movies. It is a political party and it promotes politics alone," Prabhu told reporters here at the sidelines of a function.
Prabhu was at the Mumbai BJP headquarters in Dadar here today to speak on the Emergency imposed by Indira on June 25, 1975. It was lifted after 21 months. Addressing a gathering at the event, the minister also dismissed claims of the country going through an emergency- like situation under the Narendra Modi government.
"It is a false accusation against the BJP. We want to keep Indian media completely free from any restrictions. Look at the social media, the way it has been promoted under the BJP government, one can not make such allegations against us," Prabhu said. Stressing on why the BJP wanted to touch upon the topic of Emergency, he said one might tomorrow go on to ask why do we want to celebrate Independence Day.
He said it (speaking about Emergency after 40-odd years) was imperative, so that people know the actual reasons behind that dark period in India and don't repeat such things. Also, those who can afford to forget the actual reasons behind Emergency would repent in the future, he added. Mumbai BJP chief Ashish Shelar, who was also present at the event said, "During war against Pakistan and China, an emergency-like situation existed but the state of Emergency declared by Indira Gandhi was different. It was imposed because her own Lok Sabha membership was in danger."

Regardless of what you do for a living, public speaking skills can come in handy. Whether you will be addressing customers, coworkers, or your boss, you need to be able to make your point known and persuade the people listening to you. The tips that follow will help you learn how to communicate more effectively when giving a speech.
You cannot give a speech and automatically assume that everyone will follow what you say. You need to work hard if you want their attention, and you need to work harder if you expect to keep it. Since this is technically a performance, you have to work to get the desired results.
Public speaking needs to be taken seriously. You can't just get up and speak and expect that everyone will hang on to your every word automatically. You have to capture and retain their attention. You can almost liken a speech to giving a dramatic performance.
Being prepared is key to making good public speaking impressions. Know what you're going to say. Perform research for supporting your statements, if you can. Write down the information you plan to say. Also, remember to memorize your words so you look professional while speaking. The more time you take to be prepared, the more confident you will be while speaking.
If you are prepping, practice a lot and memorize what you need to prior to speech day. After your speech is memorized, then you can start worrying about your actual delivery. With your speech firmly implanted in your mind, it will be much easier to naturally ad lib when you finally give it.
Know your material inside and out. While you will probably practice beforehand to memorize it, you sill need to know any data or facts that you could be asked about that are related to your speech. If you have time, you can add in some of these things throughout your speech as needed. You can use them to answer questions too.
Learn the material as well as possible. Keep to facts and other information that is directly related to your speech. Depending on the type of audience and how receptive they are, you can weave in stories as you go along. You can use them to answer questions too.
Always make sure to look at your audience. Keep your focus on what you are doing and not allow yourself to get distracted. You must command the attention of your audience.
Practice your speech more than once after you memorize it. Rehearse your speech often to make needed corrections. Try to maintain calm breathing during the speech. Make sure there are pauses between key points so that people can react with applause. Practice the speech with any equipment you plan to use.
Understand the audience you are speaking to. If possible, find out some of the individuals that will be in the crowd. If possible, greet them when they arrive. Include some of the people in your speech, and this will give it a much more friendly tone.
Gain an understanding of the audience. If there is a way, find things out about some individuals in the audience. Stand by the door as they come into the room, and try to get to quickly know them. Having a feeling of familiarity with some audience members can make the whole presentation or speech feel more friendly.
Speaking the truth in sort of a story form helps make public speaking less complicated and more effective. Make sure to outline your speech. Your story should sound very credible. Base your story off of real life so your speech is natural and authentic.
Try telling true stories to better your public speaking. Make sure to outline your speech. Your story should have a clear beginning middle and end for better communication of your ideas. Be sure you use true life events in order to sound really authentic.
Deep breathing can help curb your anxiety. Breathing in deeply and exhaling fully prior to starting your speech helps control your nerves. Use your nose to inhale to a count of four, and then exhale with your mouth to at least a count of five. Do this six times, and calm will be yours.
Breathe calmly if you are afraid of public speaking. Taking some deep breaths and then exhaling all the way before giving a speech can reduce nerves. Breath using four-count nasal inhales and five-count mouth exhales. Do this approximately five times to feel a difference in how calm you feel.
Even if the event you're speaking at is casual, dress nice. The way you looks reflects on your speech. Men should consider wearing a necktie when possible, as it does direct audience eyes to the face and head so they focus on your speaking.
Practice is the only way to make sure that you are aware of what you want to convey. Tweak your speech by recording it and practicing in front of your mirror. You can also include friends and family in the audience.
Try not to drink booze before speaking. Though it may work to loosen you up, that might just be a bad idea. Many great speeches turned bad from too much alcohol; don't make yours one of them.
To get others to remember your speeches, make memorable endings. While some parts are important in a speech, the ending is usually what is most remembered. If the finish is boring, you speech will soon be forgotten.
Take the time to fully understand your material if you hope to give a great speech. Your topic should be something that you are genuinely interested in and have experience with. Speak in a conversational tone to impress the audience with what you know rather than confusing them with unfamiliar terminology.
Make use of note cards. Having a copy of your speech is a good idea, even when you have the speech memorized. Do not write the whole speech down, but jot down important bullet points.
Before you even give your speech, get your audience on your side. As they come into the area, smile at them and perhaps greet them personally. Doing this will help you feel confident.
Visual Aids
When you speak to a large group, it is essential for you to have a voice that is clear and strong. Have a cup of water with you while delivering your speech. Don't drink dairy or soda immediately prior to your speech. These fluids are saliva-thickening and can even encourage mucous production. A caffeine free tea will ease your tension and relax your voice.
You want your visual aids to be attractive, but not distracting. Visual aids should enhance the information you are giving. You don't want them to become distracting or overwhelm the message. Utilize visual aids of high quality to drive home important points. Make them colorful and pleasing to the eye while not distracting listeners from paying attention to what you are saying.
Picture what you're going to say before working on your speech. Visualize yourself delivering the speech and also think about how the audience will react. Watching yourself speak and hearing the listeners react well can help you feel more prepared for the actual event.
Don't make people wait to ask questions. In fact, waiting until the end may be counterproductive, as some individuals will forget what they wanted to say. Most people will appreciate a time to ask questions when needed.
Don't make your audience wait to ask questions at the end of the speech. People may likely forget the questions that they had. They'll feel a lot better if they can ask questions as they have them, so be prepared to answer.
Think positively about your speech. It is generally normal to feel anxious. Almost everyone feels this way. Try to stay as positive as possible before a speech. If you start thinking about failing, chances are you will fail. Instead, know that you will rock it.
Never go into a speech unprepared. This is not a good idea, even if you are an expert at what you are speaking about. You might make a speech that is not the worst ever. But, you may forget some important points.
When you make a public speech, it's often a good idea to find a connection with those you're speaking to by relating a story to them at the beginning. Use a hypothetical situation, a topical news event or even a personal experience. Help your audience empathize an understand by adding an appealing human element to the story. Do not make any parts of your speech offensive.
Prior to giving any speech, try to assess the audience. Every group of people has different expectations of you. For instance, colleagues will expect your speech to teach them something. Loved ones want to be entertained. Regardless of your audience, it's always important to deliver what they are looking for.
Before giving a speech, know your audience. Every audience has different expectations. Businessmen will be expecting to learn something new from you. Family and friends will likely want to be entertained. It does not matter who your audience is as long as you provide what they want.
If you're nervous, envision yourself sitting among the audience. Are you the kind of person that would chuckle and point out mistakes of the speaker? Would you think the speaker wasn't good? If an error happens, do not worry.
Moving up in the world is all but impossible without public speaking skills. The goal of speaking in public is to illustrate a point to your audience and to gain their support. Follow these tips to make strong, persuasive speeches.
Don't tell the audience that you're nervous about speaking before them. They will regard your speech more highly if you simply deliver it to them without any personal confessions. Though you may believe the audience can see your fears, they can not. It is best to allow the audience to believe that you are fully in command and confident, even if you feel like butterflies are battling it out in your stomach.

2009 was a growth year for cloud computing, with the trend capturing significant attention in both the press and from major companies around the world. As CIOs began to sink their teeth into cloud computing's business applications, the stage for large-scale adoption in 2010 was set. In fact, technology research and advisory firm Gartner recently published a report forecasting a tremendous increase in software-as-a-service (SaaS) revenues as a result of the emergence of cloud computing – an estimated $14 billion by 2013.
Without a doubt, the cloud delivers highly affordable, flexible and secure solutions to organizations, providing them with a great opportunity to leverage economies of scale. Unfortunately, high-profile cloud computing outages (even among leading vendors) and concerns about security leave many enterprise decision-makers reluctant to offload their most critical data to the cloud. In fact, these concerns over security and reliability are widely cited as the biggest inhibitors to widespread enterprise adoption of cloud computing, even as businesses are increasingly reliant on cloud collaboration services for e-mail and other office communication needs.
The question is: Are these fears really warranted?
In reality, the biggest players in the financial services market, including all of the top 50 global banks and 16 of the 30 largest private equity firms, already trust the cloud with their most confidential data. For years, they have leveraged secure and reliable cloud solutions for everything from merger and acquisition deals and bankruptcies to restructuring and fund-raising activities.
These SaaS-based, mission-critical collaboration tools will continue to be important as the market begins to stabilize in 2010, allowing parties around the world to login to a password protected, extremely secure environment to collaborate, communicate and exchange highly-sensitive information in real time both inside and outside their firewall.
For business with some of the toughest security requirements in the world, there are a number of criteria to consider when evaluating potential vendors in the cloud.
The primary focus when it comes to security for SaaS models like cloud computing, of course, is finding a provider that can protect data at all times. Keep in mind that SaaS providers already offer a number of advantages when it comes to maintaining security standards for the enterprise. Unlike an internal IT department, in which IT resources are typically stretched thin and keeping current can be a challenge, SaaS vendors offer a faster response time to threats, homogeneous environments with smaller vulnerability surfaces to secure, and more vigorous security checks than traditional corporate IT departments that have limited resources and time.
In the evaluation process, we recommend taking this a step further to confirm a potential provider addresses four specific areas of concern with equal levels of attention. In fact, it is crucial to 360-degree security that these four pillars of information security are acknowledged:
- Application Security: The best SaaS providers protect their offerings with strong authentication and equally potent authorization systems. Authentication ensures that only those with valid user credentials obtain access, while authorization controls what services and data items individual valid users may access.
- Infrastructure Security: Cloud services are only as good as their availability. Providers must build a highly available, redundant infrastructure to provide uninterruptible services to their customers. Network and periphery security are paramount for infrastructure elements; therefore, leading-edge technologies for firewalls, load balancers and intrusion detection/prevention should be in place and continuously monitored by experienced security personnel.
- Process Security: SaaS providers, particularly those involved in business-critical information, invest large amounts of time and resources into developing security procedures and controls for every aspect of their service offerings.
- Personnel Security: People are an important component of any information system. They can present insider threats that no outside attacker can match. Administrative controls such as "need to know," "least privilege" and "separation of duties" must be employed. Background checks of the employees and enforceable confidentiality agreements are mandatory.
Adopting a comprehensive approach that integrates application, infrastructure, process and personnel security with appropriate protection and controls is a critical factor. In addition to these fundamental components, organizations also need to, quite simply, take a good look at the provider's existing client base and where they set the bar for security. This can be a good gauge for the strength of a provider's claims. Only through discussions with existing customers, access to the public record and inspection of audit and incident reports can the best providers be distinguished from run-of-the-mill counterparts.
Finally, when evaluating and choosing a SaaS provider, it is important to verify that the provider can deliver the level of service and capabilities your company requires and to then double-check their ability to deliver on their promises. Ideally, obtaining information about security from providers should require little or no effort from prospective buyers. The providers who understand security will provide detailed security information as a matter of course, if not a matter of pride.
Security-savvy SaaS providers can also deliver tremendous value-add to its clients by enabling effective collaboration among colleagues and co-workers, and even among teams assembled across multiple organizations. With the right security apparatus built in, providers can impose highly effective security restraints on SaaS offerings.
As cloud computing increasingly becomes a viable option for CIOs and other business professionals looking to do more with less, the real game-changing event is just around the corner – when companies move beyond simply virtualizing their servers and start applying cloud computing concepts in earnest. By following some of the guidelines detailed above, organizations can make sure potential provides have their security and regulatory needs in mind as they can float up into the next generation of enterprise collaboration.

06:59 pm
India Cements Ltd today reported standalone net profits at Rs 23.67 crore for the quarter ending September 30 this year.
The city-based N-Srinivasan-led company had registered net profits at Rs 62.41 crore during the same period previous year.
For the half year period ending September 30, this year, the net profits of the company stood at Rs 50.11 crore as against Rs 106.39 crore uring same period last year.
Total income during the quarter ending September 30, 2017 was came down to Rs 1,274.90 crore as against Rs 1,314.44 crore in the corresponding quarter of the last financial year.
For the six month period ending September 30, 2017, the standalone total income went up to Rs 2,741.65 crore from Rs 2,520.16 crore registered during year ago period.
The financials were not comparable as last year figures include excise duty besides the company's subsidiary Trinetra Cements was merged with it.
Declaring the annual results, company Vice-Chairman and Managing Director, N Srinivasan said the 'sluggishness' cannot be attributed only to demonetisation introduced last year or the Goods and Service Tax or general economical slowdown.
"It may be a combination of all the three. But I should also tell that absence of sand being freely available was also a reason. My bread and butter market is Tamil Nadu and the (Cement) volume cannot be improved despite the demand", he told reporters.
This was the first time the company witnessed a degrowth of 12 per cent, he said.
Srinivasan said, the company may look at "diversification" to manage the situation by focusing in West and North markets along with Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
The company currently has four manufacturing facilities and were operating at a capacity of 70 per cent as of September 30, 2017 as compared to last year's 68 per cent.
The net plant realisation was Rs 3,473 for the quarter ending September 30, 2017 as against Rs 3,604 in the sequential quarter ending June 30, 2017.
To a query Srinivasan said the gross debt of the company stood at Rs 3,260 crore as of September 30, 2017.

Wire H.V.O.F. System
Schematic Diagram of the Wire H.V.O.F. Spray Process
Wire HVOF spraying developed after year 2000 and its goal is to deposit molybdenum in a layer with low porosity and hardnesses over 60 HRC.
This process replaces successfully hard chroming. Moreover, it has the advantage of deposition of thick layers over 1mm thickness, having an adherence and hardness superior to chroming. It is not limited by the piece size. The disadvantage is a higher price than that of the electrochemical chroming.
It can obviously be deposited any alloy or pure metal which can exist as wire and has a melting point under 3000º C.

Out, Damned Spot! The creation of the Client Security Board
A drama in three acts
The Minnesota Client Security Board, born in the 1980s amid the crisis stemming from two lawyers' high-profile theft of client funds, has been reimbursing the victims of financial crimes by attorneys for over 30 years. In this short history—the first in a series*—the author, the first CSB director and also director of the Office of Lawyers Professional Responsibility at the time, recalls the circumstances of the CSB's creation and its subsequent evolution.
Act I of the dramatic early history of the Minnesota Client Security Board (CSB) starred St. Paul attorney John J. Flanagan as the tale's first villain. In early July 1985, he absconded with client funds eventually calculated at about $450,000. This was big news, and the media came calling to ask what would be done. For me, it was a baptism by fire, as I had just been appointed acting director of the Office of Lawyers Professional Responsibility (OLPR) on July 1, 1985.
Flanagan's license to practice law was quickly suspended. A trusteeship was established to handle his law files. A few months later, the FBI found Flanagan hiding in Utah. He was charged, convicted, and incarcerated. He was also disbarred. So far, so good.
Review of Flanagan's client files showed that he had been stealing client funds for many years. His M.O. was to forge personal injury settlement checks, lie to clients about their cases, and take the money for his own use. What could be done to help the victimized clients?
Eventually, many clients found remedies against banks, because the banks had paid on Flanagan's forged signatures. As for the others, "not much" was the unsatisfactory answer. There was the MSBA Client Security Fund, established in 1963—a noble but inadequate effort. The fund received money through bar allocations and voluntary contributions, and it capped payments at $5,000 per victim. Bar and judicial leaders agreed that something had to be done for the victims, but what?
One option, proposed by a lawyer and state senator named Ron Sieloff, was that the Legislature require every Minnesota lawyer to obtain a fidelity bond. But the underwriting expenses would be huge and some lawyers, if rejected by bonding companies, might not be able to practice law. In addition, legislative regulation of lawyers was problematic: The Minnesota Supreme Court asserted the exclusive authority of the judiciary to regulate the legal profession.
The ABA provided a different option, already adopted in Iowa, Wisconsin, and some other states. In 1981, the ABA had drafted Model Rules for Client Security Funds. In voluntary bar states (like Minnesota), the fund would be operated by a board appointed by the state Supreme Court. In other states, the mandatory bar association would operate the fund.
Act II of the CSB drama began when Minnesota Supreme Court Chief Justice Douglas Amdahl called Ron Sieloff and asked him to join a group of leaders from the MSBA and Lawyers Board to discuss the client security fund option. From the vantage point of my 36 years of work in the Minnesota professional responsibility system, I would call Justice Amdahl's approach admirable and typical. The bench and bar have worked collaboratively with all interested parties in addressing the profession's issues and problems.
Creating the CSB
The client security fund option was promptly chosen. In November 1985, the MSBA filed a petition in the Minnesota Supreme Court requesting appointment of a Client Security Board. The petition also requested transfer of approximately $145,000 in MSBA security funds to the new CSB fund. Plan A was for this transfer to be supplemented by an annual registration fee of $20, paid by attorneys until the fund had a stable balance of $1,000,000. Caps could be set, limiting compensation to individual victims.
After the petition was filed, then-MSBA President Leonard Keyes wrote a column, "On Client Reparations," explaining why the Client Security Board was the best option.1 In March 1986, after a notice and comment period, the Minnesota Supreme Court held a public hearing on the MSBA petition. By order of April 15, 1986, the Court approved the petition and appointed the first Board, comprising five lawyers and two public members. Attorney members included the first chair, Mel Orenstein, and Ron Sieloff. Orenstein had chaired the MSBA Client Security Fund and had been greatly involved in proposing creation of the CSB. I was appointed the first CSB director, to provide administrative and other services. The Court's order directed the new board to draft rules for operation and submit them to the Court for adoption, but otherwise not to begin operations.
Déjà vu all over again
Act III noisily usurped the stage before Act II had finished. In October 1986, as the new board was drafting rules, Fridley attorney Mark Sampson absconded, with over $400,000 in client funds missing. As with Flanagan, there was a great deal of publicity, a trusteeship was created, and Sampson was disbarred in absentia. It became apparent that the funding proposal of $20 annually per attorney would not suffice to pay the Flanagan and Sampson victims promptly, let alone to create an ongoing healthy fund balance. As with Flanagan, the media was intensely interested in how victims would be treated. In 1992, Sampson was found, in Taos, New Mexico, where he was awaiting incarceration on a bad check conviction. His sentence included a long prison term and a restitution order.
Sampson disappeared just before he was to be publicly disciplined for misconduct unrelated to theft—primarily neglect of client files and poor communication. A suspension was recommended, but no one had alleged financial improprieties. Nonetheless, OLPR asked Sampson for a small sample of his trust account books and records. Sampson produced documents that included original bank statements—some of them, it turned out, fabricated. Sampson had managed to steal genuine original bank statement paper and use the bank's printer after hours, producing for OLPR a mixture of genuine documents and perfect forgeries. After Sampson fled, the FBI found in his office work papers for coordinating real and fake bank documents, so as to deceive us. If misappropriation had been more strongly and specifically suspected, OLPR would have obtained bank records by subpoena. No other attorney I've encountered was as artful at deception as Sampson. Why didn't he put that kind of resourcefulness to honest uses? That question has been asked many times.
In late 1986, the CSB filed a petition asking the Court to approve its operational rules and its funding. By order dated April 7, 1987, the Court approved the rules, effective July 1, 1987. The order provided that each Minnesota lawyer would pay a one-time fee of $100 to fund the CSB. On August 6, 1987, the board held its first operational meeting, approving payment of three claims. In a short time, the board paid $404,742 to Sampson's victims and $113,627 to Flanagan's victims.
Some lawyers grumbled about the $100 fee. One sued in federal court to block it, but the suit was dismissed. Over time, the controversy ebbed, then disappeared. In 1991, the Court revised the funding to allocate a portion of the annual registration fee to the board's operation. That system remains in effect.
The board's initial rules included a limit of $50,000 payment per client-victim. There was no limit on payments per dishonest lawyer. Payment could be made only for losses caused to clients by a lawyer's dishonest conduct in an attorney-client relationship or in a fiduciary relationship arising from an attorney-client relationship. Loss from mere malpractice was not covered. Payments were not made insofar as other sources of compensation were available. When James O'Hagan (disbarred 1990), David Moskal (1998), and Michael Margulies (2010) stole client money, restitution was made by their large law firms or other parties, and the board did not make payments.
In Minnesota the OLPR director is also the CSB director. The ABA recommends separate directors, out of concern that a single director of two boards could face conflicting duties. Minnesota has not experienced such problems, and Minnesota's administrative expenses are about half the national average.
Board Rule 3.01 provides, "Reimbursements of losses by the Board are discretionary, and not a matter of right. No person shall have a right in the Fund as a third party beneficiary or otherwise either before or after allowance of a claim." However, the board seeks consistency in paying claims, rather than relying on its right to act out of discretion.
The $50,000 per victim cap remained in place until 1993, when the Supreme Court held a hearing on whether to raise the cap on payment from $50,000 to $100,000. Two lawyers, Bruce Wyant and Dennis Morgeson, had induced a group of elderly clients to invest over $1.5 million dollars in a business, but most of the funds were taken without being invested. The referee in Wyant's disbarment cases summed up matters well: "At some point Wyant & Morgeson ceased operating as a law firm seeking to provide legal services to its clients and became a mining operation seeking to extract capital from its clients' assets."
At the hearing, some of the elderly clients described their losses, exceeding $50,000 or even $100,000. The MSBA did not take a position on the issue, but MSBA President Roger Stageberg stated at the hearing that he, personally, endorsed the $100,000 cap. The increase was granted and the board paid victims of Wyant and Morgeson $547,900. (I represented several investors/victims.)
Then and now
The drama of the CSB's early days has been followed by three decades of steady, solid work and service. The 2017 CSB Annual Report and a recent article by the current CSB director, Susan Humiston, describe the board's current operations and conditions.2 One fact helps capture the magnitude of the board's work: In its 30-year history, the board has paid out $8,173,277. The average annual payout by the Board has been over $250,000. In 2016-17 payouts totaled $747,094—about two thirds of which was paid to victims of Mark David Holt—but in 2015-16 payouts totaled only $53,516. A list of all claims paid and all attorneys responsible for the payouts is on the board's website. For most attorneys, $12 of the annual registration fee is allocated to the board.
In 2016, the fund's balance exceeded $4 million and in 2017 approximately $3.6 million was on hand. In 1998, the Court had recommended that the board notify the Court if the fund's balance was projected to fall below $1.5 million or rise above $2.5 million. Accordingly, the 2017 Annual Report states that "the Court has decided to redirect a portion of the CSB assessment to other regulatory boards."3 When the fund exceeds targeted balances, the Court also has the option of suspending payment of the board's portion of the registration fee, as it did in 2008-09.
Although the board has not received a great deal of attention in the media, one 2014 article reported very favorably on its work.4 The article included an interview with a single mother whose lawyer's dishonesty caused a "five-figure" loss paid by the board. The claimant called the board "a blessing for what they do" and said the board's staff "under-promised and over-delivered…. they were just super helpful."
Lessons learned
Let me bring the curtain down with several reflections on this drama. In recent decades many articles have been critical of the legal profession. These critiques almost always ignore what might be called the social ethics of the profession. To what degree do the state's lawyers provide pro bono services? Are public defenders properly appointed and funded? Are ethics complaints handled promptly and fairly? Does the profession protect the public from really bad apples? In a more targeted critique, a series of National Law Journal articles gave a very negative rating to many states' client security arrangements.5 The articles reported, "[Client protection funds] are poorly endowed, stingy about payouts and virtually a secret, even to many lawyers whose bar dues help finance them."
Minnesota compares very favorably with other states with respect both to the general questions above and to the specific NLJ critique of client security funds. Since 2001 Minnesota's cap on payment to any one victim has been $150,000. This cap is one of the highest in the country and many states—such as South Dakota ($10,000) and Louisiana ($25,000)—have much lower caps. Unlike Minnesota, some other states limit aggregate payments to victims of any one dishonest lawyer—Iowa, for example, has a $300,000 aggregate limit. It should be a point of pride among Minnesota lawyers that we stand behind lawyers to this degree.
My first column as OLPR director was titled, "On Doing the Job Ourselves."6 I borrowed from the first OLPR director, Richie Reavill, whose first column explained, "We felt we owed the public the obligation to do the job ourselves." Reavill was writing about the creation of the Lawyers Board and OLPR in 1970, but his words about the discipline system would become equally applicable to the client security system.
Now, three decades after the CSB's creation, I believe we can confidently and proudly say, "Jobs well done, and by lawyers themselves" (without forgetting the contribution of the board's public members). Read the CSB annual reports on the CSB website and you will see the often demanding and gritty work of determining whether a lawyer was dishonest, in what amount losses may have occurred, and whether losses were cause by dishonesty in the lawyer's legal or fiduciary capacity.
Although there was some grumbling when the initial $100 per lawyer assessment was levied, lawyers have become accustomed to the payments. They should also know of the splendid work done to recover funds from miscreant lawyers and from alternate sources. The Attorney General provides legal services for these efforts. Minnesota lawyers will no doubt have their hearts warmed by learning that Mark Sampson himself has paid $141,194 in restitution, inspired no doubt by his criminal sentencing order. It's often said that there aren't happy endings anymore, but this will do!

The design world encourages and inspires us in almost every aspect of our lives, whether you realize it or not. It wasn't until recently though that modern and forward-thinking design became commonplace in the office space. How funny is that? One third of your whole life spent in the office, and no one ever bothered to spruce things up a bit? Well, things have changed. Modern companies are realizing more and more that their most important asset is their employees. As such, providing the right environment has been found as necessary to encourage the right culture and inspire greatness.
From green and renewable to modern and sleek, these companies have tailored some brilliant spaces to lushly accommodate their employees. I've parsed through hundreds and narrowed down a list of just 20 offices spread between 20 different countries – yup, that's one per country. Don't get too too jealous though; a lot of these companies could be hiring.
1. REWE Digital Offices – Cologne, Germany
There comes a point in time where things of old must be replaced or re-inhabited by the new. Speaking of… What happened to all those empty factories from the industrial revolution? Ah yes! They are all being converted into ultra modern office spaces.

Such is the case with the recently completed factory renovation that now houses REWE digital offices, among others. Open plan is the name of the game, with modular common and relaxation areas positioned in the center of the room and work stations strategically clustered about the outer rim. Colors are scattered throughout an overall white backdrop. Casual, playful, simplistic.
2. Comvert – Milan, Italy

Here's another case of a warehouse remodel, but this one has quite a twist. The story goes that Comvert – a snowboard and skateboard company selling under the name brand name Bastard – wanted an all-inclusive design for their HQ. This meant the flagship store, offices, and primary warehouse would all be located within the same building. Maybe even a place to test their gear, if they could squeeze it. And squeeze it they did, with a massive skating bowl and halfpipe drop-in sitting just atop the stocking and across the room from creative's workspace. Talk about inspiration for your work. This feat won the architects building of the year by ArchDaily in 2009.
3. Fintech Fusion Incubator Offices – Geneva, Switzerland
The devil is in the details at the new Fintech Fusion offices, and those details make this space an amazing example of what modern start-up incubators should look and feel like. While the changes made within the building were quite extensive, the true brilliance shines through in the various common areas. Each area differs in size, atmosphere and traffic patterns to provide plenty of collaborative opportunities for multiple groups.

Look even more closely at the decorating and patterns to find color palettes and visual motifs that were inspired by the visual security elements of Swiss banknotes. Seems appropriate for an incubator focused on financial technology start-ups.
4. Spacekraft Coworking Offices – Burnaby, Canada

Sometimes, the local coffee shop or library just isn't enough when you're trying to be productive or pursuing your next entrepreneurial endeavor. That's where Spacekraft Coworking Offices come in. Catered specifically to small business owners in the design and technology fields, Spacekraft provides a communal, collaborative space often only found in major corporate HQs. Co-working spaces have begun sprouting up worldwide, and this particular example does so beautifully with a space juxtaposed between craft and technology.
While this is but a humble list of a few newer venues, it gives a good taste of some of the most inspiring office spaces out there and where design for office spaces is headed. More and more companies have opted for forward-thinking designs when opening up their HQ's which has led to new philosophies springing forth when designing work spaces. If you work in an office or with a company that you think is just the bee's knees, tell us about it below! You might just end up featured in the next roundup post.

It's Time To Beginning Taking care of Your Skin Right With This Suggestions
You're beautiful on the inside and out, so why not show off that beauty with your skin? Skin care is so important and since you shed skin cells everyday it is vital to continually nourish and care for your skin. The tips below will help you maintain healthy, beautiful skin.
To prevent dry skin from occurring, you can apply almond oil to it. Almond oil can be applied to your entire body, face included. After it is applied, do not rinse it off. Do, however, be aware of any allergies you might have. Apply the almond oil to a small area and check for an allergic reaction before applying it to your entire body.
If you are a young teenager, then you should watch what makeups you use on your face. Many heavy makeups can cause your skin to be damaged and break out. Ultimately, you need to experiment to find that makeup that fits your personal skin type so that your skin stays healthy and beautiful.
For healthy skin, get more vitamin D. This vitamin acts like a hormone within our bodies and is essential to a very large number of body functions, including those that regulate the immune system and heal pimples. Many people don't get enough vitamin D in their diets, so getting outside and getting sunlight so the body can produce its own vitamin D is an easy and important way to get more. You can also eat salmon, shrimp, sardines, cod, eggs or shiitake mushrooms for more vitamin D.
Exercise for great looking skin. You will get that after workout glow. Exercising increases your blood flow and oxygen levels which also increases the oxygen in your skin. This is vital for skin cell renewal. So pack your bags and hit the gym to turn back the hands of time.
Oftentimes, skin care problems are caused by the very same products we buy to deal with other skin care issues. Do you really need to slather that heavy facial cream on every day if it ends up clogging your pores and causing chronic oiliness? If you use a heavy foundation day after day, you set yourself up for breakouts. You should be thinking long-term about what you're putting on your face and whether it's actually setting you up for more problems down the road.
Taking hot baths and showers feel good, but they aren't particularly good for your skin. Hot water can actually damage your skin. Tap water contains chlorine, which works to kill bacteria and can also cause skin damage. The hotter the water, the more damage it can cause because the chemical reaction rates increase as the water temperature gets higher.
Remember that moisturizing your face does only half of the click the up coming web site job. Try to drink plenty of water because it helps in keeping your skin hydrated and looking fresh as well. Your skin is one of the largest organs in your body and also requires the most care since it is the barrier between your insides and the outside world. Drinking water rids your body and skin of toxins, while also hydrating it; moisturizing after helps finish the job.
To exfoliate your face, take a packet of sugar and rub the it all over your face and neck. The micro-crystals will help to break up the dry skin on your face and make room for new skin to appear. This process will also improve the glow and shimmer of your face when you go out.
Wash your pillowcase regularly. While you sleep, oil is being produced on your face. This build-up of oil and bacteria can be left on your pillowcase and re-contanimate your skin the next night. To help prevent future breakouts, wash your pillowcase at least twice a week. If you have sensitive skin, use a mild, non-irritating laundry detergent.
When exercising, stop when you feel like you are becoming tired. If you exercise with little energy, you may push your body too far, which can impact your hormones and create a breakout. Always do things in moderation, as this applies to exercising and lifting, if you want to achieve the best possible skin.
If you are experiencing a dandruff problem but cannot afford to go to the beauty salon for a hot oil treatment for your scalp, you can still reap the benefits of a deep oil treatment in the luxury of your home. All it takes is several tablespoons of olive oil from the pantry, warmed up in the microwave. Be sure not to heat the oil too hot. Apply the oil to your hair and scalp. If you have a plastic cap, then cover your head with it for added absorption. Leave on for approximately 20-30 minutes, then rinse with warm water. After treatment, you will discover that your dandruff is gone and your hair is shinier than ever.
Use a loofah to regularly exfoliate your skin and remove dead skin. When you remove the dead cells from the surface of your skin, it will diminish the appearance of marks, scars, and blemishes and leave your skin glowing and fresh. If your skin has a dead layer on the surface, you will look older. Cleaning away any dead cells is a great way to improve the skin on your face.
Do not shower or soak in a tub with hot water if you have dry skin. Hot water can take moisture away from skin because of the high temperature. It can make your dry skin problem, even worse. Instead, shower with lukewarm water, which is more gentle on dry skin.
Use the right product for the right area of your face when you are working on skin care. The cosmetic market designs almost every product for certain facial features. The reason behind this is because areas like under your eyes, or your lips for example have much different thicknesses of skin and are more fragile. Using a product designed for your face does not have the same effect as under the eyes, and can actually make your appearance worse.
If you have dry skin on your face, try a natural face wash. Combine equal parts cooked oatmeal and yogurt with a little cucumber juice. The oatmeal and yogurt provide vital moisture, while the cucumber closes up your pores. Rinse off with warm water and pat your face dry. After using this face wash, your skin will feel smooth and moisturized.
In order to keep your baby's skin healthy it is important to know that most rashes that a baby can develop are actually harmless. This is important to know so http://www.thedermreview.com/how-to-increase-collagen/ that you do not panic when your baby does develop a rash. Most rashes will also go away on their own.
For the softest and smoothest legs, do not use a body scrub before shaving. The act of shaving itself will exfoliate the skin by removing both the hair and the top layer of dead skin. Your skin will be best protected if you wait until the end of the bath to shave; this ensures that you do not soak your skin in sloughed-off skin and shaving products.
Take a few minutes each day to take care of your skin and you will be able to see (and feel) the results! Let your skin glow like your inner and outer beauty, while maintaining its health and nourishment. Refer back to the tips above whenever you want to try a new form of skin care or just to brush up on your current methods.

PRESS RELEASE: Roy House for Liberty County JP #1
Roy says, "I am a life long conservative. I was conservative in Liberty way 'before it was cool' and favored the Republican Party early on. I used to get razzed a lot at school but it was usually in good fun". He ran unsuccessfully in the Republican Primary for Sheriff in the 2000 primary. "I learned a lot. I was outworked. I spent too much time working my regular job which took me out of the county a great deal. It was not the right time for me to run."
Following retirement Roy House worked as a certified officer in the fraud unit of Texas Department of Insurance. His main boss was John Cornyn who later became a US Senator from Texas. Roy also obtained a private investigator license and later investigated many cases involving fraud. He worked as a contract investigator for the civil division of the US Department of Justice on superfund clean-up investigations. Along with that he did deportee escort duties for US Immigration Service flying with stowaways from the Port of Houston to the illegal immigrants' home countries. "That ended in 2001 after the Twin Towers tragedy, but even before that happened we were taking some people back home I would suspect were potential jihadists. The rest were just people trying to beat the system."
In early 2005 Ken Defoor was asked to serve as municipal judge in Kenefick. Mr. Defoor politely declined due to his many commitments and recommended Roy House for the position. "Ken told me his recommendation to the city was to appoint a well qualified person from outside the city on the theory that an outsider was less likely to be influenced by kinships or friendships in adjudicating cases of a small town. Mine was the name he suggested and after screening and appointment I have served until now. The great thing about it was I had to get the same training all non-lawyer judges receive and then a lot of courtroom time clearing a huge back log. The people in Kenefick are great and I love serving as judge."
Judge House states, "My philosophy is taken from the US Constitution. 'All men are created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights...' The 'class c courts' are the highest volume courts by a huge margin. This is the court most people have dealings with as a defendant or complainant. It is in the first line of defense of society against minor crimes and infractions and when it is administered and conducted properly it greatly increases public trust and confidence in local communities."
Roy is married to Jan House. They have five children and seven grandchildren. He is an active member of the Liberty Lion's Club and serves as scoutmaster for Liberty Troop 356 which is chartered by the Mormon Church.
"I am running because I have the background and experience to do a good job in replacing Judge Rader. I am running because I believe in justice tempered with mercy. I am running because I am a hard worker and this is a hard job."

I am glad to see someone of the character and with the qualifications of Roy House running for our JP.

I was worried about getting someone in this position that we would know for sure would do a good job - Mr. House you have calmed my concerns!
- December 10, 2011 at 3:31 PM
LD - Has Roy ever ran for this JP position before?
- December 10, 2011 at 7:39 PM
Thanks for the comments! To answer the question about running for JP before, yes I did in the 1981 democrat primary, losing a very close one (by about a dozen votes as I recall) to the late Sonny Loftin.
That might beg the question why would I run in the democrat primary back then. Thirty years ago the democrat party was dominating the elections. There were no republican office holders. Fortunately that has changed. I am a life-long conservative and have always favored republican candidates, but back in the day if a candidate had the proper principles and values and was a democrat I would have voted for him or her rather than a republican who did not. Now that the democrat party platform and values have become so leftist- to the point of threating our founder's ideals and our way of life I couldn't vote for any candidate under the democrat banner.
I took a risk to run in the JP race long ago because it meant quitting a job I loved with the Houston PD to run here. My family pressured me after a close call on the job and because I had a young family to support the JP job seemed a possible alternative. Losing the race worked out great because the family relented and I returned to HPD and had a fulfilling career for which I am grateful.
Thanks again for the question and thanks to the LD for a great forum. Roy House

After reading both articles you have posted, your political career does not add up. Forgot you ran for JP and ran for sheriff two years in a row. Makes me wonder!
- December 12, 2011 at 10:02 PM
To repeat I ran once for JP in 1981once for Sheriff in 2001, both were primary races. There wqs a run-off in the JP primary race. There were four candidates in that race and it came down to Mr. Loftin and me after a recount. Apparently you were misinformed.
Races are public record and my memory is just fine. There was a twenty year gap and a 10 year gap between my runs, not two years in a row.
The LD is a great forum because in most, if not every local race there is always rumor and misinformation going around. It is great to have the oportunity to set the record straight. Best wishes to you and I hope you will vote for me. Roy House

The result? A powerful combination of thorough processes, sound data, a brilliant team of account managers and great relationships with all our clients.
Who are we? We are a combination of our beliefs and our values and these influence what we do on your behalf. We sum it up best in two statements.
Sounds obvious? Well, you'd be surprised how few people can actually do it.
Let us explain.
The phone always has and always will form a fundamental part of our proposition. It's where the magic really happens. So, it's natural that listening, thinking and acknowledging what we've heard constitutes our primary behaviour. But the art of what we do lies in being able to hear not only what is said, but what is meant. We've learned to be sensitive enough to know when to press a point and when to stay quiet and simply acknowledge what we have been told.
We're determined to succeed. And we work with clients who are determined to succeed. But the tipping point to success happens when you do it intelligently. It's what makes the difference between those who lead and those who follow.
But our particular brand of intelligence means we remember we're dealing with other people's reputations and must think carefully before we act; knowing how to speak to prospects and when to be sensitive.
How we achieve success for our clients is all about chemistry and personality. We sum it up in three words: confident, helpful and warm.
We have confidence in many things. In the credibility we've amassed over thirty years. In our ability to develop strong relationships with prospects. In the tools we use to manage your campaigns. In the results we achieve for you. We understand the commitment it takes for you to spend money on new business development.
It's perhaps clichéd to say we love what we do but that doesn't mean it can't be true. We enjoy helping our clients achieve their goals and we're happy to share our insights and experience whenever we can. It is the Alchemis 'way' to go the extra mile.
The world we operate in can be full of tough calls. So it's always been important to us to remember we're still human. Those of us that lead Alchemis are always accessible to our clients and always keen to share the ups and downs. We're receptive whatever the situation.
The Owners

text: A project which is close to our heard is the sport event "Höfelauf", where famous athletes but also amateurs run from farm to farm in the valley Val d'Ultimo. That is where we are situated and so we are supporting a sport event in our environment which calls each year a lot of attention to the deep tradition, the old rural architecture and the great nature in this valley which has to be protected. It is important that the old trades that are still part of the everyday life in Val d'Ultimo and the huge knowledge of the inhabitants about nature, herbs and their effects will be passed on. Therefore people have to know about this traditional culture. The "Höfelauf" piques the interest of the media in order to show these special attributes of Val d'Ultimo and to protect them.

Okay, i got my period the other day and i just need to bitch about the fact that girls get periods. It's so not fair that girls get punished like this every month for not getting preggo. Can't we get a present every month, or money or something? I mean, come on! Just because some of us girls don't strive to be on Teen Mom doesn't mean we should bleed out of our vaginas for a week..
Another thing that pisses me off about periods is bloating, cramps, and eating your weight in food. Why do we have to look and feel like we are pregnant when we aren't? How is it possible to eat a whole large Papa Johns pizza in one sitting and then wake up in the morning and have pizza for breakfast? I may or may not have just done that..
You wanna wear cute underwear? Tough shit. You wanna wear a skirt or dress? You're gonna have to wait a week. Sweatpants are your new best friend for the next week and you better enjoy it!

Bracelet of Ren Yuan and Peace of heart
I designed this bracelet for Mother's day special. Because this is a bracelet for people who always want to change their lifestyle and yet dont change.
This bracelet was designed with high quality gem at $188 2 pieces in facebook. but with overwhelm request I have decided to extend 6 more pieces at $150 for Mother;s day week. After that really cannot go down le the price. Because using high quality rose quartz garnet too.
To order u need to email to firstname.lastname@example.com with mobile and address. Payment need to be made and email to inform to POSB saving 033485310. Courier fee is $3.
Courier company will increase omhealth fees another 20 percent. Actually we absorbing alot courier fees le. SO may increase $1 soon. In Singapore minimum courier fee is $8 and some places is $10. And now we still charge 3 and 5. not easy ah.:> Hope u appreciate the efffort, And sometimes leng leng send hor, is use her off hours to do it.
Is also a bracelet for people who always feel stagnant in life and also give alot and forget about ownself.
The use of garnet by omhealth was back in 2001 when two ladies requested me to design a give birth baby bracelet for them. And two of them after a year happen to have babies. I wonder... Hmmm but now their kids 16 le:>. Time flies.
I decided to design this bracelet again because the lack of compassion love energy for ourself. Many of u here are born in 60s 70s and 80s and alot of time we have alot of stress of giving to many siutations and put ouself last. This result in lack of self care . We need to love ourselves to give love more to society. Taking care of self is very important.
I designed this bracelet with 3 different ren yuan stones.
It symbolise powerful energizing and regenerative and encourage ourselve to balances, strengthens and protects.
It remind us to balance our left and right brain, alleviating fears and providing confidence to change one's life
I hope it can inspire u and give u the charisma and renyuan u deserve and assists in owning one's gifts and abilities, and sharing them with others and helping people.
21 days affirmation with Bracelet
I am love, I am abundance and I am Joy
I accept peace and joy in all aspect of my life.
I release all anxiety, doubt , worry , and I am filled with joy and power.

If you eat meat, but still have great concerns about how animals are being treated before they wind up on your plate, this is great news. Hormel, the makers of SPAM, has signed on to eliminate most (most? let's try a little harder here, huh, Hormel?) gestation crates by the year 2017. While I wish it were sooner, and the pigs that are kept immobile in these crates wish it would just be illegal already, this is a terrific step forward for humanely raised meat. I mean, if SPAM can find a way to be more socially responsible, who can't?
Of course this doesn't mean SPAM will suddenly be better for you, even if the pigs are treated better and less likely to get disease. After all, it is kind of diabetes-in-waiting. But if you, like me, were raised by people who thought, "Hey, why not have SPAM for dinner?" you'll enjoy these three SPAM recipes with less guilt, starting in 2017.
Fried SPAM & Home Fries
This is how we enjoyed our SPAM when my stepfather did the "cooking" in our home. All you do is heat up your frying pan, add your slices of SPAM and diced potatoes (about 1/2 inch square for easier cooking), and let all the juices simmer together.
That's right, it's mac and cheese with the added kick of SPAM. Mushrooms and bell peppers optional.
Because apparently some people in Hawaii think SPAM makes excellent sushi. No, really. Please, go check this out. OMG.
Do you eat SPAM? How is it prepared?

the future freaks me out
as of late, i have been really scared about where my future might lead.
it all started with talking to my friend in my major and she was telling me all about her internships and steps she was taking to get a good job after she graduates. we also discussed our enormous amount of debt that both of us have accumulated. this got me thinking about how i'm not taking steps to start a career after i graduate. and then i started freaking out about finances. and then i didn't know what i would do when i had to move out. from there it has just been a snowball effect.
hopelessness stems from doubt. and that is where i have found myself. i find myself doubting that God will provide for me. i find myself doubting that God has a future laid out for me. i can't count the number of times i've been told to read jeremiah 29:11…"'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'" for some reason, i found myself doubting this verse as well. and all of these doubts led me to breakdown and allow satan to tell me that there is no point in hoping. i know it sound stupid, but until you feel it, you can't understand what it feels like to be completely hopeless.
fortunately, i am blessed to have a Lord who is forgiving of my doubt, my hopelessness and my tendency to believe lies before i will hear truth. i am so thankful to have such a loving Father. and so grateful for friendships he has placed in my life to guide me to His word in times where doubt and hopelessness dominate my mind. my friend aaron reminded to read matthew 6:25-33 and immediately i thought "well i've read that so many times and it doesn't apply to me now" sometimes i am so blind and deaf to what God wants me to see and hear. this time around, verse 33 stuck with me…"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." God knows what i need and he will give me enough. I just need to learn how to seek him and seek living a life for the Lord before i seek worldly things that offer me nothing in comparison to what God can offer and God can provide.
for now, i want to cast my worries aside. God will take me where He wants me to go, i just need to be a willing follower. i would like to erase my doubts and now trust in the Lord fully and completely. i must bend my own will of selfish, worldly desires to become God's will for my life. if i am faithful he will provide for me abundantly. Lord, i pray that you will instill this truth in my heart and mind.
as far as my future goes, i am learning that if i put my hope and trust in the Lord He will guide me. who is more capable of steering my life where it should go? psalm 25 is one of my favorite passages. and i frequently find encouragement in verses 4-5 " Show me your ways, LORD,
teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. Amen to that.
*enjoying listening to Chris Tomlin's "I Will Follow" right now. totally applies to my life*

While Thursday Night Football is typically all about what Nike is doing with Color Rush uniforms, Adidas continues to steal headlines with custom cleats.
Once again, it's reigning Super Bowl MVP Von Miller debuting something special during pregame warm-ups — a "Bush Viper" version of his snakeskin-constructed Adidas Freak x Kevlar cleats. Last week, Miller was presented with a similar pair in blue.
Miller's Broncos visit the San Diego Chargers tonight at 8:25 p.m on CBS.

This Whyte Avenue-adjacent lounge is cozy, crowded, loud and buzzing with energy and passionate conversations — just like you might find in a European bistro. Friends argue animatedly over steak tartare, filet mignon and Wiener schnitzel, while sipping wine from all over the world. The vino list contains wines from California, Argentina, Chile, France, New Zealand, Italy, Spain and British Columbia. The maple Dijon salmon is exquisite — a substantial, perfectly cooked filet of fresh fish accompanied by vegetables and starch. The maple Dijon sauce is subtle but savoury and enhances every flaky bite. The service is friendly and informal but retains European efficiency.
