Ephesians 2 8-9 Commentary
Ephesians 2 8-9 Commentary – We will make clear the meaning of this powerful, fascinating verse of scripture. But first, lets quote it as written by the Apostle Paul: “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”
One of the biggest misconception with Christianity is that in order to be in right standing with God, one must do something pleasing to God’s eyes. Whether that be feeding the poor, giving money to charities, driving the elderly to grocery stores, serving in a church, etc. I think you get the point.
Ehesians 2 8-9 Commentary is saying that a person is only saved from his or her sins by the grace of God (His unmerited favor) through faith in Jesus death, burial and resurrection. If a lost sinner truly believes with all of his heart that Jesus Christ died on the cross at Calvary for the remission of his sins, and was buried, and rose from the dead he shall be saved according to Romans 10 9 KJV.
Good works, in God’s eyes, are never considered good until one first have a personal relationship with God. And the only possible way a person could have a relationship with God is to first receive Jesus Christ into their heart as Lord and Savior. Only then will God consider those things mentioned above as good works. Everything else, God says you are trying to establish your own form of righteousness or your own way of getting to heaven. God says that doesn’t work. He views such actions as filthy rags according to Isaiah 64 6 KJV.
Man (mankind) must approached God on His terms, and the only way man can approach God is to first have a personal relationship with His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Man can’t work his way into heaven, Ephesian 2 8-9 commentary makes that crystal clear. Man must first go to the cross at Calvary, where Jesus bled and died for our sins and ask Jesus Christ to come into his heart and save him from his sins. | <urn:uuid:14142284-d812-4260-8734-fc7fefd0ccbc> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | http://www.thecronline.com/ephesians-2-8-9-commentary/ | 2019-06-20T23:40:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999291.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20190620230326-20190621012326-00236.warc.gz | en | 0.97269 | 454 | [

President Donald Trump took off to Hawaii, Friday morning, starting his his 12-day trip to Asia.
"We'll be talking about trade, obviously North Korea. We'll be enlisting the help of a lot of people and countries," said Trump.
But if you tried searching for the president's Twitter handle Thursday around 7 p.m., you probably had trouble finding it.
That's because a Twitter employee reportedly shut-down the account on their last day of the job.
And now that the account is back, the president is getting slammed for calling Sen. Elizabeth Warren Pocahontas.
It didn't take long for warren to clap - back.
This comes after former DNC chairperson, Donna Brazile, dropped a bombshell in her new book.
She claims that an unethical agreement was signed between Hillary Clinton's campaign and the DNC, and that the democratic nomination was rigged for Clinton, over Sanders.
Warren told CNN's Jake Tapper that she does believe that the DNC nomination was rigged.
But she's apparently not the only Democrat turning on the former presidential candidate.
"I'm angry. The rank and file of the democratic party should choose the nominee of the party, not party elites. that has got to stop," said Sanders former campaign manager, Jeff Weaver.
Guess we'll have to wait and see what this'll mean for the party going forward. | <urn:uuid:e1694370-aab2-4501-bd8b-dc2878140917> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://cw33.com/2017/11/03/twitter-employee-shuts-down-trumps-account-democrats-turn-on-clinton-over-rigged-nomination/ | 2019-06-21T01:03:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999291.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20190620230326-20190621012326-00236.warc.gz | en | 0.981343 | 287 | [

I want you to know how isolating it is being the parent of my child. This isn’t the first year I have felt the weight of other people’s opinions, advice or expectations of my child. Play dates have been a rarity because I know how hard it is to get my child to follow my directions or keep themselves safe and how tiring their boundless energy is. I can count the amount of birthday invites we have had in the last three years on one hand.
I also struggle to make friends with other parents because I hate the idea of getting close to people, only to have them distance themselves when my child’s behaviour becomes too much for them. I also worry that other parents will talk behind my back about my wild, disobedient child and my poor parenting skills (because I rarely feel ‘in control’ as a parent).
I want you to know though, that my child is not without boundaries or consequences. In fact, my child consistently attracts the natural consequence of misbehavior – other people are hesitant to make friends with my child, play with my child, interact with my child and look after my child. The isolation, people staring and people’s comments have meant that my child is also anxious, has low self-esteem (because they are THAT kid) and is a perfectionist in the debilitating way, that means they often won’t try if they believe others will see them fail. And sadly, for my child, behaviour and making good choices is often a point of failure and they don’t have the impulse control skills to act any differently most days.
I also want you to know that after years of being THAT kid, my child’s anxiety has pushed them over the edge at this point in the year. A new class, new room, new teacher and new expectations have combined into a melting pot of every day being almost too hard for my child to push through.
I want you to know that my child sees your looks of bewilderment when they don’t behave as you expect and sadly this strengthens their belief that they are different and not good enough to be friends with your child or be a positive member of the class. My child is also hyperaware of other people’s views - my child feels one person staring at them as a crowd of thousands, just waiting for them to make the wrong choice. It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy, as the anxiety becomes too much and my child inevitably escalates.
I want you to know though, that underneath what you see, is a child with beautiful manners, a kind heart and generous soul, who often sees children alone or sad in the playground and seeks to find them a friend or cheer them up with something my child knows that child likes doing. I wish my child could show you these qualities more often, but they are hindered by the skills they have not yet mastered. Skills you may expect them to have mastered by now, because your child may have nailed them years ago.
I really, really want you to see that there is a beautiful person, worthy of friendship and acceptance underneath the behaviours that push others away. I hope you can make the time to see that wonderful, big-hearted child, that is so rarely seen or acknowledged.
And I want you to know most of all - that we need you. While most days we might seem invisible, we need each and every one of you. To appreciate every child and every family, we all need to hold onto our judgement, see each child as an individual, to look for the skills a child might be missing - rather than just seeing ‘bad’ behaviour - and to wholeheartedly believe that every child is capable of more. We need you to believe that, so that in our dark days, we can believe that too. | <urn:uuid:142ea02f-af1f-4aa0-9218-2d73088db0ac> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://www.firstfiveyears.org.au/child-development/what-i-want-you-to-know-about-my-child | 2019-06-20T23:24:35Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999291.1/warc/CC-MAIN-20190620230326-20190621012326-00236.warc.gz | en | 0.978289 | 787 | [

18 Sep 10 Steps to Negotiating a “Yes!”
The power of persuasion is tantamount to the potential success of ongoing business deals. When negotiating with a new or current partner, the best outcome is something that has optimal benefits for both sides.However, closing a deal shouldn’t be just about getting a yes, but an extremely effective and mutually beneficial yes. Below are some pointers on how to close a deal without compromising values.
1) Appeal to the Human
People want to be treated as if they matter. This means taking their requests into account. Make sure both parties are happy. Consider the needs of the partner and ensure the offer being made will suffice for them. Focus on developing the relationship rather than rushing the close.
2) Have a Firm Stance
Having standards and a bottom line will be pertinent to being satisfied with a deal. Walk away if the offer doesn’t meet minimal needs. If a partner doesn’t take the necessities into consideration, the potential for mutual satisfaction is nil. Being firm on certain aspects of an agreement will show commitment and seriousness. Not folding on certain criteria may also force an adverse party to change their mind.
3) Have Non-Negotiables
In addition to standing firm, there should be aspects of a partnership that are non-negotiable. Having standards that can’t be negotiated will ensure that compromising doesn’t lead to dissatisfaction. It’s perfectly acceptable to have deal breakers that allow for decisions with minimal regret tied to them. Be flexible only to the point where it’s still beneficial.
4) Share Values
If business partnerships are made between people who share similar values, neither party will have to negotiate their beliefs for something to work out. It will be easier to compromise and the parties won’t have to settle for something that goes against ethics or intrinsic needs.
5) Deepen a Relationship
Business partnerships have the potential to be long-lasting and therefore should extend the depth of a relationship. The final decision should be something that brings the parties closer. Not only will the deal be more likely to prosper, but there will also be the possibility for further negotiations to be made.
6) Focus on People
Focus on people, not problems. By understanding the person behind a business deal, the ability to compromise will come easily. It’s essential to have empathy and acknowledge a party’s views. Constructive communication between people who respect each other should result in a partnership that will have lasting success.
7) Evaluate Interests
Similar to focusing on the person, evaluating the interests of a party can help with coming to an agreement that serves both sides. It will also help with not getting sidelined by contrasting positions. Sometimes interests can be met even when opinions differ greatly.
8) Generate Multiple Outcomes
Providing a business partner with multiple feasible outcomes before choosing one increases the likelihood of a deal closing. Having many options will make a partner feel more in control and allow for flexibility on terms.
9) Be Objective
In any healthy partnership, emotions and personal opinion will not play a large role in the aspects of an agreement. The partnership should be based on objective factors that deal with facts to eliminate any unnecessary drama.
10) Get an Outside Opinion
Sometimes it’s impossible to come to an agreement, no matter how much both sides are willing to compromise. In this case, bringing in a third party is necessary. Unbiased opinions will offer clarity and could make the parties more likely to negotiate on things they weren’t willing to change previously.
Business partnerships are tricky and can be cut-throat at times. Following the above guidelines will help to ease the discomfort that comes with complicated negotiations and close the deal without compromising values.

How can I fix spacing issue between last line of text and footer?
So I am formatting a Word doc manuscript (for a friend) for a print book (novella) and for some reason the blank space between the last line of a page and the footer is not the same on all the pages (not counting the last page of a chapter, which of course will have different amount of blank space depending on the length of text there). In the Pagination setting the Window/Orphan control and all the other options are unchecked. No matter what I try to do this issue doesn't fix. I am attaching a screenshot but I didn't want her text visible so put a gray box around it. I tried googling and youtubing and cannot seem to find a solution. Anyone know how this can be fixed? | <urn:uuid:cac84246-871c-41b1-b64d-8bbc861d64fd> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | http://connect.lulu.com/en/discussion/353554/how-can-i-fix-spacing-issue-between-last-line-of-text-and-footer | 2019-06-26T16:19:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560628000367.74/warc/CC-MAIN-20190626154459-20190626180459-00556.warc.gz | en | 0.937234 | 170 | [

Yahoo! Happy Thursday everyone! Hope everyone is having a great week so far. I am still in recovery mode after 2 days of hardcore Stampeding with Sabrina. In just 2 days I managed to get hypnotized, go on a dozen different rides and attractions, sit in an $8000 massage chair, spend way too much money on food and I even walked away with a vintage 27×40 poster from Transformers the animated movie from 1987! Very excited to hang that in my house. Now its time to buckle down and post some mind blowing pages of Team Stryker!
Now that the issue has officially begun I can tell you a little bit about the back story of how I decided that I wanted issue 2 to take place in a park. I don’t know about you but when I was a kid there was no place more magical than the neighbourhood playground. In the blink of an eye you could transform that place into anywhere in the world and beyond! One second you are dangling from monkey bars as if you were clinging to the side of a mountain and in the next moment you are swinging from metal ring to ring beside Tarzan in the Amazon jungle. When I started thinking about what I wanted to do for a follow up issue I knew I wanted it to be more over the top than the first while still providing excellent set pieces for Team Stryker to run rampant on. I started thinking about how when I was younger I would pretend to be a soldier taking cover from enemy fire from behind the slide and thought to myself “What if soldiers really did fight it out on the slides?” and the rest is history. I think you will be very surprised to see what crazy twists and turns this issue takes as you tune in every week.
Also a quick side note for those of you living in Calgary: My first order of Team Stryker Mission 001 comics have arrived! I have 50 copies for sale for $5 and they are going fast! If you would like one you can either comment on this post or contact me on Facebook or Twitter. These are rare issues and won’t be around for long so if you want to be apart of Team Stryker history don’t miss this chance! | <urn:uuid:349b4b04-ea4b-4839-a113-d283c8f01a95> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | http://www.teamstrykercomic.com/mission002page02/ | 2019-06-26T17:03:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560628000367.74/warc/CC-MAIN-20190626154459-20190626180459-00556.warc.gz | en | 0.965818 | 453 | [

A collective of canners–those who fish out glass and metal from garbage cans and recycling bins–have been asked by their landlord to purchase the Bushwick property upon which they operate if they want to stay in place. Even though the L train tracks run directly below (forestalling most high-rise construction), the asking price is still a steep $3.9 million, leaving their fate unclear.
“Our landlord is good to us, but I struggle just to pay the $4,100 in rent,” says Ana Martinez de Luco, who runs the “Sure We Can” collective, the only licensed non-profit entity of its kind in New York City. The company was created seven years ago by Eugene Gadsden, a former canner turned community activist, and De Luco, a Roman Catholic nun, as a 501(c)(3) (with the help of some philanthropic residents and UN contacts). Operating at its Bushwick location for the last three and a half years, it provides guaranteed fixed payouts for the cans brought on site, along with additional amounts for those who sort and stack their inventory.
“This is the last thing you do for a living, when you can’t find anything else,” De Luco said.
The job involves long hours of back-breaking work with heavy, potentially dangerous materials (both serrated edges and more unseemly elements lurk in garbage cans). Pungent odors of dried soda and alcohol, along with a constant clanking sound, are additional occupational hazards. The very top earners, after spending the entire day roaming for and collecting cans, followed by sorting and stacking at the site, might be lucky to take home $60 for the day.
But at the collective, the canners are at least able to unload and recoup their five cent deposits at a venue free from harassment (society is often hostile to canners, and even “redemption centers” at grocery stores consider them a nuisance, or take advantage by offering varying rates).
“The canners heave heavy bags after roaming the neighborhoods all day,” said De Luco, who worked as a canner herself after making the choice to become homeless ten years ago (in part to get more insight on how to help the poor). “The convenience and camaraderie created by this location are hard to overstate. We could never dream of a better place.”
In addition to safety, the protected environment allows a sense of community to foster for people at the extreme margins of society–those with few perks or bright spots in their lives.
“We have every race, every background here,” De Luco said. “You’ll see an old Chinese man and a young Jamaican man making signs with their hands. They don’t share a language, so they’re using nonverbal cues to ‘make a trade’ so they can each stack a full tray of one particular brand to earn extra money. Over time, they even become friends.”
In addition to an unloading site, a labyrinth of indoor and outdoor facilities include designated sorting areas, storage lockers (to keep belongings), a community garden, compost tumblers, and even a local community artwork showcase.
“The surrounding community is very supportive,” said Lorenzo Masnah, an artist who is currently doing an “art residency” at the center, while also volunteering to help the canners with computer and English classes.
Records indicate the McKibbin Street property, owned by Otto Perez, was purchased in 2000 for roughly $200,000. De Luco said the area was mostly ignored as an outback to the city until recently, when it grew popular and “started to be treated like an extension of Manhattan.” Though Sure We Can signed a five-year renewal of its lease in March 2013, groups of 4-5 men in business suits started appearing on the site last summer, surveying the property.
“That’s when I knew something might be happening,” De Luco said. She contacted the landlord, who indicated that Sure We Can would have first priority–but that it had to buy at the current market price. Without community support or some type of grant or financial aid, such a scenario is extremely unlikely.
In the meantime, the canning collective continues busily apace. The weather may permeate with blazing heat or frigid cold, De Luco claimed, but there is always a canner knocking on the outside gate, indicating the need and demand for such a location to remain.
“I’m getting older,” De Luco said. “I want to reach sixty knowing I was able to make this place secure for them.” | <urn:uuid:b1a46a4c-7547-4fec-91ce-39b705972f98> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | http://brooklynbrief.com/bushwick-canning-collective-land-developer-can-build-high-still-needs-3-9-million-stay/ | 2019-06-16T08:42:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627998084.36/warc/CC-MAIN-20190616082703-20190616104703-00036.warc.gz | en | 0.962716 | 1,002 | [

Before we go running off into the sunset with our new best friend the goji berry, let us not forget our edible pal from wayyyyy back. The constant companion of many of my childhood school lunches. Sometimes, tossed in my lunch box on its own, or chopped in half with a glob of peanut butter. One of the original SUPER foods, the fabulous apple!!!
Teasing aside, you might have forgotten (I will admit, I did, too) but apples, are truly amazing. The old saying of an apple a day keeps the doctor away couldn’t be truer. Apples are high in dietary fiber, which lowers your cholesterol. They're loaded with antioxidants and vitamins.
Even their skin is special. You actually NEED to eat the skin to get all the fiber. A peeled apple doesn’t even qualify for the high fiber award. Apple skin is accredited for packing all the vitamins as well as containing Ursolic acid (weight loss) and Quercetin (fights off tissue damage in the brain like Alzheimer’s).
This is definitely one of the fruits you want in your corner!! Don’t be afraid of going old school with your apple loving. Core it, then slice it in half to spread a dollop of peanut or almond butter on it. For an added layer of health, sprinkle some flax seeds on top of the nut butter goodness, boosting your snack to a SUPER duper food status. It's perfect for breakfast when you are in a rush, or a snack anytime of day.
The Dirty Dozen and the Clean 15
Sadly, apples are at the top of the EWG’s dirty dozen. What is the dirty dozen?? It is a list of conventionally grown fruits and veggies that are considered to be higher in pesticides. So you should really try to go organic on this particular dynamo Superfood if you can.
But it is NOT all doom and gloom over at EWG. They also listed the 15 cleanest fruit and veggie fellows that are safe to eat. What I was even more impressed with was their Good Food on a Tight Budget Guide, because we all know how hard it is to feed your family, especially trying to feed your family healthy.
If organic is not an option, (or you just feel like having some of our magic in a bottle) then mix up a batch of this DIY veggie spray:
Because we got the memo about the outsides of the apple being so good for you, Team Sims concocted the easiest recipe in the world for apple skins. The Sims test kitchen geeked out hard on this contraption. Don’t worry, it’s budget friendly, too!
It's so, so, so simple to use and it's an impressive tool for any culinary collection! It can work some serious magic on potatoes as well. See in the pics below how easy it is to use. I am doing my very best Vanna White impersonation. Would anybody care to buy a vowel??!
Quick Tip: Save the apple peelin' for making pies!! The skin is where a lot of the fiber and nutrition live.
For our apple peel treat, we tossed the skins in a bit of coconut simple syrup (get our recipe HERE) and sprinkling with ground clove. Place coated apple skin on a parchment lined cookie sheet and cook in oven at 275 degrees for approximately 25 minutes.
What makes this recipe more perfect is even that we are using coconut sugar, which is only HALF the glycemic index compared to regular cane sugar. If you missed our post on natural sweeteners, you should definitely check it out HERE.
For the apple slices, we sprinkled with cinnamon and did the same business with the parchment lined cookie sheet and same oven temperature of 275 degrees, but kept them baking for about 50 minutes. Your may require less/more time depending on your oven and how crunchy you like your apple chips.
Before you know it, fall will be here, making me think about the warm and cozy ways you can get your apple fix. Baked apples are pretty foolproof and if you look around the Web, there are thousands of recipes. As soon as sweater season arrives (or maybe sooner because these look so good), I will be making these Paleo Spiced Autumn Apples Backed in Brandy.
Totally off topic in foodie land, but still within the post theme is my new favorite game to play called Apples to Apples. I’m sure many of you have already played, but if you haven’t, you need to get this game in your life! It's incredibly fun for playing with adults and also a great for playing with kids. This game is reason enough to start a weekly game night. There are a few different versions; you can find the junior version here. I can’t wait for Brooks to be old enough to play.
What's your favorite way to eat apples? Please tell me EVERYTHING!! If you have any great recipes please share! School lunch season is rapidly approaching. What are some great ways to feed your littles apples?

Today, Western Ag Reporter is one of the largest-read, weekly agriculture newspapers in the industry. We predominately cover the 14 Northwestern states, but are read coast to coast, border to border, and even in a number of foreign countries. We tell it like it is through unbiased industry coverage, while also valuing our readers and their opinions. The Reporter strives to be "All the news a busy rancher has time to read."
Western Ag Reporter (WAR) wasn’t always so named. We printed our first paper as the Western Livestock Reporter (WLR) on September 6, 1940 in the Old Union Stockyards, Spokane, Washington. Norman Warsinske started WLR at only eight pages with a year’s subscription valued at $1.
WLR was established "to supply an accurate weekly source of information" about commercial cattle markets in Oregon, Washington, Montana, and Wyoming. Soon after, the Northwest’s growing purebred industry needed a voice as well, further growing the paper’s coverage.
On January 15, 1941, Warsinske started the weekly front-page column, “Comments”, where he addressed current issues. Warsinske moved WLR to Billings, Montana on December 2, 1941.
In February 1957, Warsinske added young Pat Goggins as a fieldman. Soon after, Goggins’ column “As I See It” appeared on the second page. It moved to the front page on April 12, 1961 with Pat’s purchase of WLR. Agri-News then made its debut in 1968 to fulfill the need for more agriculture, commercial crop and livestock news. Goggins’ twin sons joined the family businesses in 1989 – Joe at the Public Auction Yards and John as a WLR field editor. At the beginning of 1994, Warsinske’s “Comments” column was brought off the shelf and gained a new byline, John Goggins, and a new home on page five of WLR.
With the increasing costs of production and distribution, in 2008 the two publications – WLR and Agri-News – merged. The Western Ag Reporter was born and John was the new General Manager.
Seven short years later “As I See It” was retired with the passing of Pat Goggins on December 31, 2016. John ascended to the position of Publisher, moving “Comments” from page five to the front page where it has remained ever since. | <urn:uuid:75cf96cc-81de-4b01-93e2-b7427760f9c1> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://westernagreporter.com/about.php | 2019-06-18T17:51:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627998808.17/warc/CC-MAIN-20190618163443-20190618185443-00356.warc.gz | en | 0.959294 | 520 | [

Welcome to another Fast Forward Friday where I share my most anticipated upcoming releases for the time period mentioned. As usual, the covers are linked to their Goodreads pages so you can add to your TBRs. Without further ado here are my picks:
Librarian turned sorcerer. Sorcerer turned hero. Hero turned puppet.
The Solaris Empire found victory in the North and, at the cost of her heart and her innocence, Vhalla Yarl has earned her freedom. But the true fight is only beginning as the secret forces that have been lurking in the shadows, tugging at the strings of Vhalla’s fate, finally come to light. Nowhere is safe, and Vhalla must tread carefully or else she’ll fall into the waiting arms of her greatest foe. Or former lover.
The fourth and final installment in the spellbinding series from the irrepressible, #1 New York Times bestselling author Maggie Stiefvater.
All her life, Blue has been warned that she will cause her true love’s death. She doesn’t believe in true love and never thought this would be a problem, but as her life becomes caught up in the strange and sinister world of the Raven Boys, she’s not so sure anymore.
In a starred review for Blue Lily, Lily Blue, Kirkus Reviews declared: “Expect this truly one-of-a-kind series to come to a thundering close.”
Bad Things Always Come In Threes…
As a thief, I’m good at three things: hiding in the shadows, getting in and out unseen, and uncovering secrets. I put these skills to work for the Sinclair Family, one of the magical mobs that run the tourist town of Cloudburst Falls.
Everyone knows Victor Draconi wants to take over all the other Families–and kill every last Sinclair. What they don’t know is that I’m on to him, and no way will I let the man who murdered my mom get away with hurting all the other people I care about. Especially when I’ve got places to break into, stuff to steal, and Devon Sinclair fighting right by my side…
Fresh from their victory over the Bogeyman, FBI agent Harmony Black and her team, Vigilant Lock, face a new type of threat: one from beyond the stars.
They’d always heard the Red Knight was an urban legend: in 1954, three years before Sputnik launched, a mysterious satellite was sighted circling Earth, though no power on the planet had such technology.
But the Red Knight is real, and what’s more, it’s inextricably linked to a supernatural force no one yet understands. Like a moth to a flame, this dark presence collides annually with the airborne satellite. Except this year the Red Knight is on course to crash-land…in Oregon.
Vigilant Lock sets out to find the crash site and secure the remnants before the mysterious power is drawn to Earth. But they soon discover the mission is far from straightforward—and they aren’t the only ones tracking the Red Knight. To stop a deadly occult threat, Harmony and her team must use all their resources: technology and sorcery, science and magic. Fortunately, Harmony has only begun to discover her growing power.
The much anticipated sequel to the breathtaking The Wrath and the Dawn, lauded by Publishers Weekly as “a potent page-turner of intrigue and romance.”
I am surrounded on all sides by a desert. A guest, in a prison of sand and sun. My family is here. And I do not know whom I can trust.
In a land on the brink of war, Shahrzad has been torn from the love of her husband Khalid, the Caliph of Khorasan. She once believed him a monster, but his secrets revealed a man tormented by guilt and a powerful curse—one that might keep them apart forever. Reunited with her family, who have taken refuge with enemies of Khalid, and Tariq, her childhood sweetheart, she should be happy. But Tariq now commands forces set on destroying Khalid’s empire. Shahrzad is almost a prisoner caught between loyalties to people she loves. But she refuses to be a pawn and devises a plan.
While her father, Jahandar, continues to play with magical forces he doesn’t yet understand, Shahrzad tries to uncover powers that may lie dormant within her. With the help of a tattered old carpet and a tempestuous but sage young man, Shahrzad will attempt to break the curse and reunite with her one true love.
Fate and fortune. Power and passion. What does it take to be the queen of a kingdom when you’re only seventeen?
Maya is cursed. With a horoscope that promises a marriage of Death and Destruction, she has earned only the scorn and fear of her father’s kingdom. Content to follow more scholarly pursuits, her whole world is torn apart when her father, the Raja, arranges a wedding of political convenience to quell outside rebellions. Soon Maya becomes the queen of Akaran and wife of Amar. Neither roles are what she expected: As Akaran’s queen, she finds her voice and power. As Amar’s wife, she finds something else entirely: Compassion. Protection. Desire…
But Akaran has its own secrets — thousands of locked doors, gardens of glass, and a tree that bears memories instead of fruit. Soon, Maya suspects her life is in danger. Yet who, besides her husband, can she trust? With the fate of the human and Otherworldly realms hanging in the balance, Maya must unravel an ancient mystery that spans reincarnated lives to save those she loves the most. . .including herself.
A lush and vivid story that is steeped in Indian folklore and mythology. The Star-Touched Queen is a novel that no reader will soon forget.
A page-turning debut in the tradition of Michael Crichton, World War Z, and The Martian, Sleeping Giants is a thriller fueled by an earthshaking mystery—and a fight to control a gargantuan power.
A girl named Rose is riding her new bike near her home in Deadwood, South Dakota, when she falls through the earth. She wakes up at the bottom of a square hole, its walls glowing with intricate carvings. But the firemen who come to save her peer down upon something even stranger: a little girl in the palm of a giant metal hand.
Seventeen years later, the mystery of the bizarre artifact remains unsolved—its origins, architects, and purpose unknown. Its carbon dating defies belief; military reports are redacted; theories are floated, then rejected.
But some can never stop searching for answers.
Rose Franklin is now a highly trained physicist leading a top secret team to crack the hand’s code. And along with her colleagues, she is being interviewed by a nameless interrogator whose power and purview are as enigmatic as the provenance of the relic. What’s clear is that Rose and her compatriots are on the edge of unraveling history’s most perplexing discovery—and figuring out what it portends for humanity. But once the pieces of the puzzle are in place, will the result prove to be an instrument of lasting peace or a weapon of mass destruction?
As heir to a kingdom of floating continents, Kali has spent her life bound by limits—by her duties as a member of the royal family; by a forced betrothal to the son of a nobleman; and by the edge of the only world she’s ever known—a small island hovering above a monster-ridden earth, long since uninhabited by humans. She is the Eternal Flame of Hope for what’s left of mankind, the wick and the wax burning in service for her people, and for their revered Phoenix, whose magic keeps them aloft.
When Kali falls off the edge of her kingdom and miraculously survives, she is shocked to discover there are still humans on the earth. Determined to get home, Kali entrusts a rugged monster-hunter named Griffin to guide her across a world overrun by chimera, storm dragons, basilisks, and other terrifying beasts. But the more time she spends on earth, the more dark truths she begins to uncover about her home in the sky, and the more resolute she is to start burning for herself.

Garrison Bespoke is a luxury suit tailor in Toronto, but its latest product might as well come from the research labs of a secret intelligence agency in the UK. It’s a three-piece suit that’s strong enough to withstand attacks from a hunting knife and even 9mm bullets fired at close range, thanks to several layers of carbon nanotubes hidden inside the vest and suit jacket.
According to The Globe and Mail, Garrison Bespoke co-founder Michael Nguyen started development of the stylish life-saving device when one of their clients was assassinated. But because they are suit makers – and because bulletproof vests already exist – Garrison Bespoke ensures that its clients will enjoy protection without sacrificing style or comfort.
The company outlined its goals in developing the suit as follows: “First, to be modern and stylish. Second, to be light and comfortable. And, third, to be reliable and safe.” The video below is from CityNews’ report on the custom suit:
So how much will this ballin’ bullet-stopper cost you? The Globe and Mail says that a custom three-piece suit will set you back at least $20,000. I’m not sure if that’s in Canadian or US Dollars, but there’s not much of a difference between their values anyway. Garrison Bespoke also has a bulletproof polo shirt for $800, for casual yet life-threatening Fridays. | <urn:uuid:d90df248-a830-48aa-84d7-836f5b0dc66d> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://technabob.com/blog/2013/11/10/bulletproof-suit/ | 2019-06-19T22:01:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999041.59/warc/CC-MAIN-20190619204313-20190619230313-00516.warc.gz | en | 0.958208 | 305 | [

Medical Office going 100% paperless
Kommentare: I would recommend this product without any doubts to anyone looking for a complete and robust office automation product. My office is now 100% paperless and the staff are delighted with ease of use of the product. I usually do not endorse a product but SearchExpress has earned my respect. Anyone seeking further information about my experience, please contact me directly and I will share what I have done in automating our business.
Vorteile: I installed SearchExpress a year ago to Scan Medical reports. Just recently I started learning the full capability of this product. I started a project to get rid of some of the many forms that we use in our Medical diagnostic business. All of a sudden I was consumed with the many features that this product offers. I'm now in the final testing phase of implementing a complete work flow from the time the patients comes in through the door to the billing of the procedure. I have created Eforms for practically every paper that we use in the office. We practically have turned our center to 100% paperless. This product is the answer for any business in creating a smooth and efficient work flow.
Nachteile: The many rich features of this product are not easily identified. The technical support makes up for it though. Customer support is always there with answers and available literally 24/7.

Have been using SE for about 7 years and it has done exactly what we wanted.
Kommentare: low cost, easy maintenance, great support.
Vorteile: The software is configurable for desired image type, easy to use and can run multiple separate databases for separate entities.
Nachteile: search results brings in a lot of results that do not pertain to the criteria. Would prefer to be able to remove viewing privileges for certain private databases | <urn:uuid:43546a87-4193-4b32-8b69-3977ae856147> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://www.capterra.at/software/120478/searchexpress | 2019-06-19T21:37:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999041.59/warc/CC-MAIN-20190619204313-20190619230313-00516.warc.gz | en | 0.673482 | 722 | [

A single recipe can speak volumes about an era and a way of life, and a country. Don’t believe me? Then convince me that the following recipe speaks of anything other than life ("Upstairs" of course) in Victorian England:
Beverage for the Pocket Flask.
Melt or dissolve by a gentle heat l oz. of black currant jelly in pint of syrup; when cold, add the same quantity of rum. In summer the above is best; for the winter months, do as follows :—Pick fine dry black currants, put them into a stone jar, and then the jar in a saucepan of boiling water till the juice is extracted; strain, and to every pint add ½ lb. of loaf sugar; give one boil, and skim well; when cold add the same quantity of rum (or gin, if you prefer it), shake well, and bottle.
The Country House: A Collection of Useful Information and Recipes … by I.E.B.C. (1866)
Need more convincing? The following recipes are from the same source:
Milk and whisky; quantity according to taste, the less spirit the better. It is food and drink both.
No. 1.—Place a large tumbler before you, put therein a coffee-cup of hot (very strong) Mocha coffee, pure, a piece of sugar according to taste (it ought not to be too sweet), a handsome dash of pure cognac, then fill the same up with pure cold water, and drink it after stirring it well up.
No. 2.—Lemon and water, with or without sugar.
Put two or three slices of very brown toast in a bowl; grate over the same a little nutmeg; then pour in a quart of ale (milk preferable) and two-thirds of a bottle of sherry; sweeten with syrup, and (immediately before drinking) add a bottle of soda-water; a little clove or cinnamon may be added, if approved of.
The Country House is my new old cookery book crush, so be aware, I will be giving you a few more Upper Class Victorian Country treats over the next few days. | <urn:uuid:4e32c836-fa6f-46df-962b-85593b8fb6ab> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | http://www.theoldfoodie.com/2015/07/a-beverage-for-your-pocket-flask-1866.html | 2019-06-24T12:01:20Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999482.38/warc/CC-MAIN-20190624104413-20190624130413-00116.warc.gz | en | 0.897136 | 454 | [

Tim Volk, a 51-year-old ex-Marine and nuclear engineer, was facing the prospect of a risky third open heart surgery after blockages were again found in arteries leading to his heart. But cardiologist Bipin Joshi offered him another choice with a new technology – the “Impella” or world’s smallest heart pump.
The tiny device – used for the first time in the Valley on Volk at Community Regional Medical Center – acts the opposite of a boat’s propeller. It’s slightly smaller in diameter than a No. 2 pencil, about a third as long and is inserted into the heart via catheter from an incision in the groin. Once in the heart, the Impella pulls blood out of the heart’s chambers, propelling blood to the rest of the body. It can stay in after surgery to help patients recover.
“The Impella provides an assist during risky procedures,” explained Dr. Joshi. “Without this the heart might stop or it might not be able to pump well enough and that would be a disastrous situation. This gives us the time and support to do what we need to fix his heart.”
After studying the Impella’s technology and reviewing his options, Volk said he was more than willing to be the first patient in the Fresno region to try it. “This technology is so amazing,” he said, “that I called several friends and told them they needed to invest in this company.”
Volk’s had several heart attacks, two surgeries to do multiple bypasses of blocked arteries and stents put in other blocked arteries. And still, just months after his last surgery, he was experiencing chest pain and shortness of breath. “He’s a very smart guy and he takes his medications well. He just has genetics we don’t understand,” said Dr. Joshi.
For the historic first Impella implantation, two cardiologists, three cardiology residents, four cardiac technicians, and four cardiac intensive care nurses gathered in Community Regional’s cath lab to watch and assist. The world’s smallest heart pump went in easily and took just a small adjustment to get pulled into the optimum spot for pumping blood.
The academic regional medical center partners with top medical school UC San Francisco to train 200 resident physicians annually in the Fresno Medical Education Program. Nearly a third of family practice physicians and specialists practicing in the Valley were educated through this program.
“It’s a new era at the cath lab,” declared Dr. John Ambrose, director of cardiology at Community Regional and a UCSF clinical professor, as he and Dr. Joshi finished opening a critical blockage in Volk’s artery.
“I’ll absolutely use it again,” Dr. Joshi said afterwards. “The Impella did just what it was supposed to do. Now we’ll able to do more high-risk cases more safely for our patients.”

CODART ZEVENTIEN will be taking place in the heart of Holland’s Golden Age, Amsterdam. In the course of the 17th century, the city grew from a modest-sized port to become the centre of world commerce. The canal ring was laid out, the monumental town hall (now the Royal Palace at Dam Square) was built, and people converged on the city from all corners of the earth in search of the economic prosperity and the relative freedom that prevailed here. Although Amsterdam lost its leading position in the 18th century, the city continued to reinvent itself around these parameters of creativity, entrepreneurship and individual liberty. In consequence, Amsterdam is not just the city of Rembrandt, the East and West India Companies and religious freedom, but it is also the city of the Amsterdam School and Cobra, Heineken, Ajax, liberal policies on drugs and prostitution, hippies and Provos.
The mildly provocative nature of many Amsterdammers, combined with their view that the Netherlands consists of ‘Amsterdam and the surrounding area’, is not always appreciated by the people in the rest of the country. Amsterdammers are regarded as blunt, arrogant, and rude. Tourists walking around the city and finding themselves cursed and warned by loud bells to keep off the cycle paths may well agree, as will people who set great store by courteous and friendly service in cafés, restaurants and shops.
Although such assumptions about the city and the people who live there may be clichés, both the positive and negative aspects of Amsterdam help to make it a vibrant city, a place where there is always something happening. This applies not least in the museum world. In preparing this congress, it was a real challenge to do justice to the enormous diversity of museums containing art by the Old Masters – not to mention the Van Gogh Museum and the Stedelijk Museum, which also reopened recently. You may find it worth your while to stay on for a few days after the congress ends!
CODART ZEVENTIEN is hosted by the Rijksmuseum. The museum reopened on 13 April 2013 after ten years of renovations on the monumental building, dating from 1885. The result has been universally acclaimed by the international press. It was this reopening that prompted the decision to hold the congress in Amsterdam and that inspired the congress theme: ‘Presenting our Collections: Ideals, Ideas and Practice.’
The Rijksmuseum started life in 1800 as the ‘National Art Gallery’ in Huis ten Bosch Palace in The Hague. In 1808 it moved to the Royal Palace at Dam Square in Amsterdam, where the paintings from The Hague were combined with works from the collection of the city of Amsterdam, including the Night Watch. In 1817 the museum moved to the building known as the Trippenhuis on Kloveniersburgwal.
Since 1885 the Rijksmuseum has occupied the famous building designed by P.J.H. Cuypers overlooking Museumplein. Originally, the building effectively consisted of two parts linked on the second floor by the Gallery of Honour, a situation that has been restored by the renovation. The museum provides an overview of Dutch art from the Middle Ages to the present day. International art is also displayed, but is subordinate to the Dutch objects.
On the ground floor, the west wing is reserved for art from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance (Jacob Cornelisz, Scorel, Beuckelaer, Geertgen tot Sint Jans, as well as some paintings by Italian artists), while the east wing exhibits ‘Special collections’, a treasury of model ships, weapons and decorative arts.
The first floor displays art from the 18th and 19th centuries, from Cornelis Troost to Breitner, the Hague School and Van Gogh; work by Goya and Falconet can also be seen here. The 20th century can be found on the top, attic floor (reached through the hall on the second floor).
The entire second floor is devoted to the 17th century. Historical items are interspersed among the works of art, and all the great names of Holland’s Golden Age are found here. The central axis of this floor, the Gallery of Honour, leads to the Night Watch room. The almost ritualistic walk through the Gallery of Honour in the direction of the ‘high altar’, the Night Watch, recalls that Cuypers, who designed the building, was above all an architect of churches. It also contributes to the classical, traditional ambience of the Rijksmuseum, whose entire display (aside from the 20th century) contains not a single monitor or screen. Whether this is old-fashioned or a breath of fresh air will be one of the subjects we shall be debating here at the congress.
Museum Van Loon
In the heart of the Amsterdam canal district lies Museum Van Loon, a magnificent private residence built in 1672 by the architect Adriaen Dortsman. This is the location of the opening reception of CODART ZEVENTIEN on Sunday 16 March. The first resident was painter Ferdinand Bol, a pupil of Rembrandt. The interior of the house has remained largely intact during the last centuries and still evokes the splendor of the Golden Age.
In the rooms, a large collection of paintings, fine furniture, precious silvery and porcelain from different centuries is on display. Behind the house is a beautiful garden, an oasis of quiet in the modern inner city. The garden is laid out in formal style, and is bordered on the far side by the classical façade of the coach house. This original unity of canal house, garden and coach house is nowhere else to be seen. If you want a glimpse of the world behind the façades of the world famous canals, a visit to Museum Van Loon is definitely worth your while. (source: www.museumvanloon.nl)
The Maritime Museum has also undergone major renovation in recent years (2007−2011). The CODART member who has just spent two days debating permanent displays in the Rijksmuseum will be struck by the contrast between the Rijksmuseum and the Maritime Museum. The latter opted for a radically different formula. This museum is full of computer screens, interactive displays, and modern forms of presentation. The Maritime Museum was founded in 1916 and was originally located in De Lairessestraat, in the building in which Christie’s holds its auctions today (directly opposite the congress hotel − Memphis Hotel), still identifiable by the wave motifs in the frieze. Since 1973 it has occupied the premises of the former Arsenal of the Admiralty, built in 1655-1656 by Daniel Stalpaert. The museum displays the maritime history of the Netherlands through a unique collection of paintings, ship models, globes, and a wealth of other items.
Stedelijk Museum Alkmaar
The Stedelijk Museum Alkmaar displays the history and cultural heritage of Alkmaar. Artists represented in the collection include Jacob Cornelisz van Oostsanen, Cornelis Buys, Maarten van Heemskerck, Willem van de Velde the Younger, Gerard van Honthorst, Pieter Jansz Saenredam and Jan de Baen. Devotees of the work of the Alkmaar artist Caesar van Everdingen should not fail to visit this museum, which has nine of his paintings, including two militia pieces.
The highlight of this excursion will be the exhibition on Van Oostsanen that the museum is organising in partnership with the Amsterdam Museum: Van Oostsanen: The First Dutch Master. The painter Jacob Cornelisz van Oostsanen (1470-1533) is the first Amsterdam artist whom we know by name.
From 1639 to 1658, Rembrandt lived in the house on Sint Antoniesbreestraat (nowadays Jodenbreestraat). This building is now the premises of the museum, which was founded here in 1911. In the late 1990s, the interior of Rembrandt’s house was reconstructed with the aid of the inventory that was drawn up when Rembrandt went bankrupt [link].
In 1998 a new building was completed next to the historic Rembrandt House, and named the ‘Saskia House’. Temporary exhibitions are held there. The emphasis during this excursion will be on the exhibition that the museum is organising together with Peter Schatborn (emeritus curator of drawings at the National Print Room) on the attribution of drawings.
The city of Amsterdam has possessed its own art collection since the 16th century. Over the centuries it expanded to become one of the largest and most important municipal collections in the world. Some of its art-historical highlights, including the Night Watch, have been displayed in the Rijksmuseum since 1885. Since 1926, the Amsterdam Museum (formerly Amsterdam Historical Museum) has housed a range of art and historical objects that tell the story of Amsterdam. Lastman, Moeyaert, De Keyser, Backer, Rembrandt, Sandrart, Flinck, Bol, Lievens, Ovens, Troost, Quinkhard, Regters, De Lelie: every painter who was important in Amsterdam in his day is represented in the museum. The collection of group portraits is unique in the world. For tourists, the permanent exhibition Amsterdam DNA has been made, which gives the history of Amsterdam in a nutshell.
During the congress, part of the exhibition on Jacob Cornelisz van Oostsanen will be displayed at the museum. If you have some time left to spend in Amsterdam, make sure to visit the museum and this exhibition. The other part is on view in Alkmaar (see above). | <urn:uuid:b1ae6084-c369-45cc-a814-c3e56edfdb95> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://www.codart.nl/our-events/codart-zeventien/codart-zeventien-background-information/ | 2019-06-25T16:42:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999853.94/warc/CC-MAIN-20190625152739-20190625174739-00276.warc.gz | en | 0.939718 | 2,060 | [

Get ready for some more sugar, spice, everything nice and Chemical X because The Powerpuff Girls are coming back.
RELATED: HBO’s Powerpuff Girls
It’s been years since Professor Utonium accidentally created The Powerpuff Girls in his lab in 1998. The show ran for 78 episodes until 2004. What started as an experiment to create three children for himself, Professor Utonium ended up creating three adorable superheroes who can fly and kick some serious ass. The Powerpuff Girls were super cute and also super strong, regularly saving Townsville from villains like Mojo Jojo and The Gangreen Gang.
Cartoon Network announced that the show will return to capture our hearts all over again in 2016. Nick Jennings, known for the hit show Adventure Time, is on board as executive producer. Cartoon Network announced that:
The Powerpuff Girls reboot will include an all-new television series produced by Cartoon Network Studios and a full licensing program slated to roll out across all regions. The Powerpuff Girls centers on three sugar-coated superheroes — Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup — whose mission in life alternates between going to school, fighting crime, winning at hopscotch and saving the world before bedtime.
There are no further details on what the new Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup will look like and whether the reboot will follow the style and storyline of the original. Check out these fan-created Powerpuff Girls and tell us what you would love to see from the new reboot: | <urn:uuid:6c04533c-207b-418b-8c4a-ce64a1827d93> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | http://pixelvulture.com/2015/02/the-powerpuff-girls-are-making-a-comeback/ | 2019-06-26T21:05:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560628000545.97/warc/CC-MAIN-20190626194744-20190626220744-00436.warc.gz | en | 0.93208 | 307 | [

Bidding Commercial Jobs with Incomplete Drawings
1. Do you just bid what you see on the drawings that pertains to your scope of work? In other words, if the architect/designer didn't draw it, you don't add it in, but make it up in change orders?
2. Do you bid it on how you think it should be done? In other words, do you add for something that you know should be included but isn't shown on the drawings? For example, the drawings don't show countertop supports in an unsupported span but you know there has to be something to support the top - do you include the supports in the bid?
I've heard of companies bidding the job as drawn and others bidding it as they know it should be done. Just wondering pros and cons of each method.
From contributor J:
If you read through all the typical specs for a given job, you will generally see a line that reads, in effect, that you will provide any and all materials needed to make the job whole and complete, regardless of whether or not you see it on the prints.
To use your analogy, if they don't show top supports for an open 10' span and you don't provide them, to make the job complete, rest assured you will be notified of it.
From contributor A:
1) Yes, but clarify if you are excluding something that is not drawn that may or will be required.
2) Bid to the plans and specs, clarify what is not clear, don't include it unless instructed.
Send written communication and make sure you get a response from the architect via one of the GCs (RFI). You should send an RFI on the top supports and ask if they are part of the miscellaneous metal which will give a better look and a clear installation beneath the top. Don't ask one general, or you may include something someone else isn't. If you are too late to answer questions, then you need to include something to hold the top up. On a negotiated job, include separate line items for things you know they need but weren't clear about.
From contributor O:
There is a bit of an art to selectively "missing" some things one knows by experience will be needed on a job but leaving them out on purpose so as to win the job with a low bid, and make the difference up in change orders.
This is always a bit of a gamble, but one can stack the odds with some confidence when all factors are weighed. The experience of the GC's estimators, your relationship with them, your skill at negotiation and salesmanship, all play a part.
From contributor L:
This is an area where knowing the GCs and architects pays off. We bid as drawn with add-ons for things that may be needed but were left off. To good GCs we will bid it as required for a reasonably complete job and note those items as included. There are those GCs that make a living off change orders and back charges - be careful! Get everything in writing!
From contributor B:
When GCs send a set of drawings to a millwork contractor for a bid they expect him/her to bid all millwork. If everyone is busy you might get to pick and choose what to bid in the package, and when work is slow all incomplete bids will most likely be rejected.
In a slow economy like this one, GCs are looking for the low bid. You need to make sure that your base bid, the number they're looking at first, is the lowest number possible which must include all your direct and indirect expenses and a reasonable profit.
I have seen very detailed plans that spell out the last details, but seems like everything that I have looked at in the past 6 months leaves a lot for interpretation.
Example: The plans call for plastic laminate casework but don't specify brand and number. In that case qualify your bid and spell out what you are quoting.
One more: If they want $2 slides, then that is what you quote in your base bid. If you want to sell them $12 slides, then offer it as an Add Alternate.
Cover your bases and sharpen your pencil and good luck.

Events in the Yarra River Precinct can range from a surprisingly good busker on the Promenade through to major international acts at the Myer Music Bowl and Rod Laver Arena, but for most people the most memorable are usually those with a very personal flavour.
The combination of a riverside setting, city skyline views and high quality venues makes a personal occasion something out of the ordinary. Luckily there is a range of specialised venues in the precinct to suit all needs (and budgets). Here’s just a few as tempters.
The cathedral-like space of Metropolis Events on the top floor of Southgate not only accommodates hundreds of guests, but it also provides stunning views of Melbourne’s city skyline. The smaller event space in Metropolis features a spacious balcony, so guests can almost lean out to the river while enjoying their drinks and hors d’oeuvres.
Your guests will never be short of a conversation topic when you hold an event on Eureka 89. The 360 degree views over Melbourne, down the bay and well into the Victorian countryside are the perfect accompaniment to its very high quality food and beverage.ZINC Fed Square has been a favourite event venue since Fed Square opened in 2002, but unlike the open, hard public areas of the square, ZINC is tucked away down by the riverside, with views through leafy elms to the water itself, passing rowers and the river boats. Outdoor decks put guests right among the trees and river activity. A number of different floor configurations means that it can accommodate from 150 to 1,000 people.
South Wharf is the precinct’s premium events hub, with a range of venues for a variety of functions, set within the heritage ambience of Melbourne’s former ship building and renovation wharves.
Aerial Events at 15 Dukes Walk, South Wharf is a very stylish, elevated venue capable of accommodating 60 to 900 guests, who enjoy 180 degree views from the Bolte Bridge and Docklands, to Southern Cross Station.
Cargo Hall is located in one of the renovated cargo sheds of South Wharf Promenade and while it offers all the trappings of a modern function centre, you feel that you are never too far from its atmospheric origins, right by the riverside. Its pillarless open space accommodates between 200 and 600 people.
It’s always showtime at South Wharf’s Showtime Events Centre - a space unparalleled for atmosphere. Step out of the venue with a drink and you’re looking right into the Melbourne skyline, over the sparkling waters of the Lower Yarra River. Beautiful wooden floorboards and wrought iron wall features pay tribute to its heritage. Catering from between 80- to 1,000 people, the outdoor venue space can even be incorporated to produce a precinct party for up to 5,500 guests.
That’s just a smattering of what this precinct has to offer people seeking a special event venue, but may we also suggest a very different way for the ‘special’ people to arrive at the venue of your choice. Cloud 09 is a magnificently recreated 1950s wooden speedboat available for hire and as a setting for photographs. Truly, you’ll feel like George and Amal Clooney turning up in this vessel. | <urn:uuid:68fd16be-99db-47b9-80f9-3f56c23baff5> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | http://yarrariver.melbourne/blog/297/riverside-party-spaces-for-any-function | 2019-06-26T20:33:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560628000545.97/warc/CC-MAIN-20190626194744-20190626220744-00436.warc.gz | en | 0.948791 | 681 | [

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) – Freshman guard Joe Wieskamp had 18 points and 11 rebounds, Nicholas Baer scored 14 of his 16 points in the second half and 14th-ranked Iowa held off Pitt 69-68 on Tuesday night for its third win over a power program this season.
Jordan Bohannon had 12 points and six steals for the Hawkeyes (6-0), who’ve also taken down Oregon and Connecticut this month.
Pitt (6-1) put itself in position for the upset – only to miss two shots in the final 10.4 seconds that would’ve given the Panthers the win.
Baer and Pitt freshman Xavier Johnson traded free throws to make it a 69-68 game with 40.7 seconds left. Iowa’s Connor McCaffery then missed a 3 at the shot-clock buzzer.
Tyler Cook grabbed the rebound – only to miss both ensuing free throws. Trey McGowens and Sidy N’Dir each had chances for the game-winning shot, with Iowa only securing the victory when N’Dir’s desperate turnaround jumper went awry.
A pair of crucial 3s by Baer helped Iowa jump ahead 64-62. Johnson then missed a driving layup, but Kene Chukwuka pulled Pitt to 67-66 on an underneath bucket with 1:09 to go.
Johnson had 18 points to lead Pitt.
The Hawkeyes announced just before tip-off that junior reserve forward Cordell Pemsl will have season-ending surgery next month.
Pitt: The Panthers have to be more than a little encouraged by their first performance on the road. They shot the lights out in a venue they’ve never played in before and knocked Iowa’s potent offense off its rhythm for much of the night.
Iowa: It’s too early to tell if this will end up being remembered as a November clunker – nearly every team in America has at least one – or a troubling sign that the Hawkeyes’ defense, a major problem a year ago, is still too leaky. Still, Iowa got the stops it needed late.
This performance could drop the Hawkeyes down a few pegs in next week’s poll – though they get a crack at No. 22 Wisconsin in just three days.
The Panthers face city rival Duquesne in downtown Pittsburgh.
Iowa hosts the Badgers on Friday in its Big Ten opener.

If you are an American taxpayer, the idea that your political (or other?) views could impact your taxes is pretty frightening. When you consider the power to tax—which includes the power to destroy—the mere suggestion of targeting is abhorrent. It’s one reason all the denials—including President Obama's ‘no smidgen of corruption’ remark to Fox News in February—inflame rather than quell debate.
First, there was no targeting by the IRS. Then there was, but only by those rogue IRS employees down in Cincinnati. Then, there was a spontaneous uprising from a YouTube video (oops sorry, wrong
lie scandal). There was confusion about how to apply the tax law, but not political, and not from above. Then, top IRS Official Lois Lerner refused to testify.
IRS Commissioner Miller seemed defiant too and was sacked. Then, there was a year-long Congressional investigation before the IRS finally admitted the 2009 through 2011 Lois Lerner’s emails ‘disappeared.’ Then, the backups
didn’t work were recycled. Then, the new IRS Commissioner said the IRS needs a bigger tech budget.
Now, not the IRS but the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration has found the 30,000
missing lost destroyed emails. They aren’t sorted yet, and who knows what they will reveal. Numerous IRS officials testified that the backup tapes were recycled and the emails were gone. Turns out they were misinformed mislead mistaken. It isn’t only Congress that was asked over and over to buy the IRS “we have nothing” mantra. The IRS has said it in court too.
But now, the Inspector General discovered the potential emails among 744 disaster recovery tapes, finding up to 30,000 of Lois Lerner's emails from the key 2009 to 2011 period. They could reveal nothing, or they could be smoking guns. But all taxpayers should care since transparency and integrity are key to our system.
The IRS audits, sends bills, imposes penalties, files liens and levies. But incredibly, most of the money the IRS collects is self-assessed. We all fill out tax returns and voluntarily send in money. Part of the reason we comply may be fear that we’ll be viewed as willful, risking jail if we don’t. Yet how much we believe in the system is critical to making it work.
What do most people think of the IRS these days? I don’t mean your personal feelings when you get a letter from the IRS, even one via certified mail foretelling something serious. Or a knock on the door from the IRS with badges, maybe even guns. Anyone who has been through any of that knows it is unsettling even if you come out fine.
The fairness of the tax system and its administration is far more important than any one audit or tax dispute. And how people behave is likely to influenced by how this drama plays out. Despite being held in contempt of Congress for refusing to testify, Ms. Lerner has not been prosecuted. Scholars debate whether her refusal is constitutionally protected.
Yet after her long silence, in an exclusive interview with Politico, Ms. Lerner said she did nothing wrong and she considers herself the victim. She bristled at any suggestion she had anything to do with destroying emails, switching to texts to avoid being traced, letting her own liberal views influence her treatment of tea party a_holes, etc. Perhaps she will be vindicated and truly did nothing wrong.
Perhaps, but American taxpayers deserve an explanation. So do thousands of dedicated IRS employees. The vast bulk of them are doing their best and helping not hurting the system. Their position is undermined by the awful bumbling and worse the IRS scandal over the last 18 months has revealed. Some of the public may not be able to get past the apparent stonewalling. Some of the public may wonder if they would get a pass from the IRS if their hard drive ate their tax records.
But any way you look at it, the tax system suffers badly. Some taxpayers take their distrust to the courts, as with True the Vote’s lawsuit against the IRS. And NetJets has asserted that the IRS “wiped clean a number of computer hard drives containing e-mails and other electronic documents that the government was required to produce.” Some taxpayers may not go to court, but may fudge their taxes, figuring the system is not fair anyway.
We need fairness and faith in the tax system restored. Perhaps we're now one step closer to it.

You came in late,
Informing me of the diner you already had.
You don’t look me in the eye for too long,
A glance and then you hurriedly look away.
You ask me if I’ve had dinner
Knowing very well I hadn’t.
But you’re putting in effort to make conversation;
Too much effort.
I play cool and tell you I haven’t.
You say, “Oh. Okay.”
“You should, it’s getting late.”
“Don’t wait for me if I get too late.”
I nod in response and,
Go back to the work I’d put on hold
When you rang the doorbell.
You don’t smell of aftershave or musk;
There’s a different scent on you
That’s sweet and, rich.
I walk into the room
To find your shirt discarded on the bed
While you take a midnight shower.
I feel the insides of my stomach churn,
Disappointed by the act –
Both yours and mine.
But there it is,
I find the dreaded stain
I expected but, hoped to not find.
It was a dark brown,
The colour of rich soil.
I place back your shirt
And go back to my work
As I hear the door unlock,
And you step out,
After trying to wash away your sins.
You ask me if I ate
And I tell you I’m not feeling it,
As I wrap up my work
And make my way to bed,
Making sure to keep my back towards you.
I wish me good night
Before turning off the lights
And I mumble it back to you.
I’d sensed your treachery
Last week already
When you dropped a message
About a sudden meeting,
Telling me you’d come late
But I was under the building,
Waiting to surprise you
When I got your message,
As I watched you at the cafe across the road.
I’d sensed it again
When you said you went to the grocery, first
And then later said you went out with the boys
When I asked you about the invisible bags.
I could sense your weight shift slightly towards me,
Checking if I were awake or asleep
Before gently getting up and,
Tiptoeing your way out of our bedroom.
I lied there awake
Listening to your footsteps
That sounded as loud as sirens tonight.
I turned around to face
Crumpled sheets and an empty bed.
I walked out of our bedroom
Knowing exactly which part of the house
I’d catch you red-handed.
And I found you there,
In the dark
With nothing but a ray of white
Falling on your cheating face.

I gave it to the kids next door today.” | <urn:uuid:2ae2ba17-f113-4dd0-8f3c-9a26c11323df> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://yoursrhetorically.wordpress.com/2018/04/29/cheat/ | 2019-06-16T10:40:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627998100.52/warc/CC-MAIN-20190616102719-20190616124719-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.910767 | 647 | [

Someone recreated the famous all glass house by Mies van Der Rohe in Second Life. I being both an architecture geek and second life wannabe geek (not to mention being grade A vlog geek) of course am overjoyed to see the virtual tour on video. I can't believe I've never gotten down there to see this thing after spending 11 years in Chicago. Maybe I'll at least get a chance to go check it out in second life now. I wonder if this recreation of architectural wonders in second life is becoming quite the trend? I must admit my favorite video game ever was grand theft auto and it wasn't hurt to much by it's fairly amazingly accurate recreation of famous European cityscapes.

I am excited to share some ReStore DIYs with you today!
I have learned so much partnering with Habitat for Humanity and LOVE the work that they do! One of the ways they raise money is through their ReStore locations. ReStores are home improvement and décor stores where 100% of the profits go to Habitat for Humanity’s mission to build safe housing for people in need. Many of the items in their stores are donated from people’s homes , like light fixtures, furniture, doors, shutters, appliances, etc. but they also carry new items. They have TONS of home improvement supplies (tools, paint brushes, etc.) and builders sometimes donate leftover supplies from jobs, so brand new tile and flooring is often available too. It requires a little digging, but there are always treasures to be found, and the pricing can’t be beat!
In starting Crisp Collective I decided one of the ways I could support Habitat is by visiting ReStores often, sharing my finds, and sharing fun ways these items can be repurposed or re-done. I will be sharing these projects here from time to time, as well as giving quick tutorials if you want to try similar projects on your own! I am honored that Dallas Habitat for Humanity is also going to be sharing some of my ideas on their social media outlets.
Let me preface all this by saying, I do not consider myself a master DIY-er! I will be sharing the simplest, most time-effective way to do these projects because that’s how I roll!
On my first trip to the ReStore I purchased this fun little chair for $15 and both of these shutters for $5, $2.50 each. I loved the shape and details on this chair, but it was definitely in need of some TLC. I started by giving it a good scrub down so that it was clean and then spray painted all the wood with this primer. I have tried several primer sprays, and love the coverage of this one!
Then I painted the chair with a brush and white paint. There are tons of fancy chalk paints out there that are great, but I actually purchased Waverly Inspirations Chalk Paint at Walmart. The price is great, and I only used about a fourth of the bottle. The coverage was perfect for this project.
I then got a sandpaper block and lightly distressed some of the corners and edges. I am not the best painter so this also let me distress/sand away any places where the paint had gooped up a little or didn’t look like I wanted. Because I knew I was going to be replacing the fabric anyway I did not have to be super careful with my painting either (bonus!)
I went to my local Hobby Lobby and found gray plaid fabric that I thought was super fun. The chair is not huge, so I only needed 1.5 yards. The piping and detail on the chair was a little beyond my expertise, so I took the fabric and chair to a local upholstery shop and they recovered the cushions for me in the fabric I chose. So, are we ready for a before and after?
I was really happy with the way this turned out and had so much fun giving this little chair new life!
My first shutter project was even simpler. I took one of the shutters, scrubbed it down and spray painted it with my same primer from above. Then I used the rest of my white chalk paint and painted the shutter. This paint job took a little more time because there are so many little nooks and crannies you have to make sure to cover. When I purchased my plaid fabric at Hobby Lobby I also went to their section of knobs and pulls and got 2 pulls that I thought fit the size and style of my shutter to serve as handles. I attached the pulls on either end of the shutter and bam! My ugly orange shutter that looked like this…
…is now a fun tray that can be used on a coffee table, dining room table or really anywhere in your home! The best part is that the entire project cost less than $10. Crazy, right? My second shutter is getting a makeover too, but it is still a work in progress! Hope you enjoyed this first Tuesday Transformation and will join me as I try to give more hidden gems new life! | <urn:uuid:914076f6-63e1-4c8e-a39e-f5952bbade05> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | http://crispcollective.org/2016/11/22/tuesday-transformations/ | 2019-06-17T17:39:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627998513.14/warc/CC-MAIN-20190617163111-20190617185111-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.972403 | 908 | [

Even cavemen knew that nuts are great for you. Since shopping wasn’t an option, their diets were mostly made up of things for which they could forage. Berries, nuts, roots, fruits and meats came by easily. Nuts have packed with healthy fats that helped keep these hunter-gatherers warm. Nuts were also easy to stash away during the cold months. Ask Scrat, the acorn-obsessed sabre-toothed squirrel from 20th Century Fox’s “Ice Age”.Today, eating habits of cavemen are making a huge comeback worldwide, with lots of folks going gaga over the Paleo diet. The Paleo diet shuns carbohydrates like the plague.
However, at superbites, we’ve been big cheerleaders of balanced eating as opposed to diets. So keep the proportions sane, the nutrients handy and stay healthy!
What do we get from Nuts? Nuts maketh the super-heroes!
But was there any wisdom to our caveman ancestors’ nut eating habits? The answer is a resounding YES!
Nuts are loaded with monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, and omega fatty acids. These form the building blocks of good brain health. Lots of studies have shown direct links between nut consumption and positive brain development. This points at probable origin of every Indian mothers favourite adage, ‘beta doodh ke saath badaam zaroor khaana’
Nuts are full of iron, selenium, zinc and magnesium. They’re also filled with Vitamins A, D, B and K. All in all, they are like all natural nutritional supplement capsules. Nuts are also a significant source of proteins. So vegetarians who are paranoid about getting insufficient protein from their diet, fear not! A handful of nuts is exactly the kind of fuel you need before a workout!
So pick up a pack of superbites from our selection: salted cashews, almonds, pistachios or even mixed nuts, and get tanked up! All available at our awesome superbites nut webstore. | <urn:uuid:37d03968-848c-4365-a121-7e4d293c1f9c> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://gillyspeaks.wordpress.com/2015/09/19/even-our-naked-ancestors-loved-nuts/ | 2019-06-17T17:28:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627998513.14/warc/CC-MAIN-20190617163111-20190617185111-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.953377 | 445 | [

Incumbent Philip Kingston is clinging to his District 14 seat on the Dallas City Council. Kingston will face challenger David Blewett in a June 8 runoff after both candidates failed to earn 50 percent of the vote in Saturday’s election.
Blewett, a real estate financier and former SMU football player, won nearly 48 percent of the vote, according to Dallas County Elections results. Kingston followed in second with 40 percent, and Warren Johnson finished third with about 12 percent.
After the election, Blewett thanked supporters on Facebook and asked them mobilize again for the runoff.
Kingston, who is running for his fourth and final term before hitting term limits, was criticized throughout the campaign for his adversarial style and an ongoing ethics complaint. He also had to repay an $8,000 fine for missing too many City Council meetings in 2016 and 2017.
However, the councilman has faced criticism before and still won. In 2013, he beat Blewett in a field of seven candidates to replace outgoing Angela Hunt.
“I think it’s incredibly clear that we didn’t get our message across correctly, and that’s on me,” Kingston told the Dallas Morning News. “I’m the arbiter of that.”
In a field of four candidates, Blackmon led with about 37 percent of the vote, and Moore finished second with nearly 32 percent, according to Dallas County Elections results. Sarah Lamb finished third with 16 percent, and Tami Brown finished fourth with 14 percent.
“This is an amazing achievement, and there’s no way I could have done it without each and every one of you,” Blackmon said on Facebook.
After the election, Moore thanked Lamb and Brown for their engagement in the district and said she was excited for the June 8 runoff.
“I am so proud that our people-powered campaign is headed to the June 8th runoff,” she said on Facebook. “Our election was filled with substantive issues and passionate voters.”

Lounge Review: Aspire Lounge Zurich
Aspire Lounge Zurich is one of the third-party operated lounges at Zurich Airport. Located in the Airside Center, just a few minutes away from most gates, the lounge offers a decent buffet, several choices for entertainment and comfortable seating. Sadly, there is no tarmac view, but apart from that, Aspire Lounge Zurich offers a good experience.
Aspire Lounge Zurich grants access to Priority Pass holders, oneworld frequent flyers and business class guests as well as selected other airline passengers.
Having access to the lounge is a real pleasure, especially when considering how expensive Switzerland in general and Zurich Airport in particular is.
Due to its good location, you can be sure to never have to walk more than 15 minutes to reach your boarding gate. But that’s not the only positive aspect of Aspire Lounge Zurich.
Seating in the Aspire Lounge Zurich
Aspire Lounge Zurich looks not only modern, but quite futuristic when you enter for the first time.
Nevertheless, the different seating arrangements in the medium sized lounge still feel very comfortable. Separated by walls, you may either choose to sit in the dining area or in one of the relaxation areas with couches and armchairs.
There are also several barstools right next to the windows, but the view you’ll enjoy sadly is of the airport hall only.
Nevertheless, Aspire Lounge Zurich doesn’t feel uncomfortable as the light makes the lounge bright and airy. Overall, we enjoyed both, the comfort and the design of the seating arrangements.
Buffet at Aspire Lounge Zurich
Something utterly important for the Swiss are the highest standards when it comes to the quality of food. Due to that, we expected the dishes at Aspire Lounge Zurich to be of an exceptional quality.
We were not disappointed as especially the sandwiches with Swiss bread and Swiss cheese were a real treat. Besides, there was a choice of three hot dishes (Mac & Cheese, soup and some kind of curried sausage), some salad and fresh bread when visited the lounge.
Talking about drinks, there was a wide range of spirits and wines of good quality available. For sure, you can also find several soft drinks at Aspire Lounge Zurich.
While the buffet was anything but extensive, the quality and taste were good.
Especially when considering that the prices for food at Zurich Airport are completely outrageous, the opportunity of dining at Aspire Lounge Zurich was one we accepted without hesitating.
Entertainment at Aspire Lounge Zurich
Not only the quality of food was good, but also the choice of entertainment options. There was a television showing news channels as well as a wide range of national and international newspapers.
As Switzerland is a multilingual country, the choice of German, French and Italian papers and magazines was very extensive. Nevertheless, there were also several English and other international magazines and newspapers available. The Wi-Fi provided in the lounge was of good quality, but is limited to just one hour per device.
This stems from the fact that Aspire Lounge Zurich uses the Wi-Fi of the airport. Don’t hesitate to ask the staff for another code if you need Wi-Fi any longer. Usually, they are quite helpful and won’t let you pay for it.
Bottom line Aspire Lounge Zurich
We’ve been to many lounges in the last weeks, but I still have in mind how good the cheese sandwich at Aspire Lounge Zurich was.
Having this in mind, it’s worth praising the high quality of food offered in the lounge. At the same time, the buffet was average at best when it comes to choice. Entertainment options were decent and the seating was comfortable, modern and clean.
All in all, there’s nothing bad to say about Aspire Lounge Zurich. It’s no especially amazing lounge, but surely good enough to spend some minutes or even one or two hours prior departure! | <urn:uuid:6632f6e2-1986-4d5c-87f8-fed8385d9fcf> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://traveluxblog.com/2015/09/03/lounge-review-aspire-lounge-zurich/ | 2019-06-17T17:15:31Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627998513.14/warc/CC-MAIN-20190617163111-20190617185111-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.960599 | 815 | [

After losing to Steve Corker in 1999, Al French is back running for city council again. That kind of persistence belies a dedication that may not qualify him for the office, but it certainly helps. French is that somewhat rare candidate who will be able to be effective immediately. Because of all the work he has already been doing for the past decade as a neighborhood activist, he is familiar with City Hall and many of the initiatives either already implemented or in the pipeline. French, who is also an architect, is especially well versed in the subtleties of the Growth Management Act, and his support of the city's growth plan should make him a valued expert on the council from Day One.
As city voters engineer the kind of council that will work best with the new strong mayor form of government -- and within districts -- French may be a prototype. He has worked on local issues as an advocate for economic development in Northeast Spokane, and now he will bring those concerns to the council. But he has also worked enough on citywide issues to know that there is a balance to be struck between advocating for a district and the city as a whole.
This is a close race that will lead to a strong council member either way. In fact, there aren't many differences on the issues between Dennis Hession and Dean Lynch. But Hession gets our nod here for his edge in experience and for bringing another legal mind to help balance the perspectives coming from the council dais on Monday nights. Hession's years on the Park Board, although sometimes marred by moments of inflexibility, did add up to an organization that continues to serve the city's best interests effectively. And his familiarity with the pressure cooker of local politics, as chair of the Park Board, should give him a unique perspective on the current growing pains the council is experiencing as a result of the new strong mayor form of government. Hession has run on the idea that he can help create a better council, and we think he will be a better fit as the council relates to the strong mayor's office.
Dean Lynch has his heart in the right place, and he deserves credit for listening to constituents' concerns throughout his short tenure, but he seems a little thin on the issues and politically clumsy. On the proposed loan to the River Park Square parking garage, his was the swing vote. Even though in voting for the loan he was wrong, in our view, what was more disturbing was his rationale -- that he figured the mayor would veto it anyway. In that vote, we didn't see any core values on display, only transparent politics. Certainly Lynch has been learning on the job and has shown promise, but Hession will bring more immediate background and depth to the issues. Lynch also doesn't seem to understand how deeply the problems on the council are impacting the city's chances for a better future -- he seems to see it as a case of a sitcom-like dysfunctional family. Hession sees these problems as the serious matter they are and pledges to work to make the council a more cooperative and effective body.
Once a very good councilwoman, Cherie Rodgers seems to have lost her bearings in recent years. Still, she has the right disposition for the job and is the closest thing we have to a populist on the council (and every city council can use at least one voice of the people). Still, here's hoping she can regain her initial promise and start to be for things instead of just against them in her next term.
Rodgers was at her best when she was for the little guy and his concerns, from clean water to excesses like the parking garage and the Lincoln Street Bridge. But on the parking garage in particular, the little guy has moved on and Rodgers hasn't. Polling shows that a significant majority of Spokane citizens supports the mayor's plan of mediation forced by the threat of litigation. More and more, Rodgers seems to favor litigation alone as a means of uncovering serious wrongdoing, criminal or otherwise. The problem is that it's an all-or-nothing game, and in taking such a stance she endangers the position of the city. In pushing to prove the bonds were not tax exempt, even if she's ultimately successful, she could wind up costing the city more in a settlement. In pushing the argument that the whole deal is bogus because of violations of open meeting laws, she could succeed in placing the entire burden of the mess on the city's shoulders.
Many of these positions mirror those of her fellow council member Steve Eugster; Rodgers would do well to realize that Eugster is often wrong, and that his lawsuits have and could do great damage to the city he serves. There are other legal opinions at work in the mayor's office, and a little trust of the mayor would help Rodgers remove the scales from her eyes. Her apparent knee-jerk support of Eugster's positions even came up in the last couple weeks, as she has criticized the mayor's defense of the city's need to annex county land. Why would she criticize something that most agree is crucial to the city's continued existence? Her oath of office should dictate that she defend the city, not take up positions that undermine it.
In fact, this could wind up being a big problem for her, as some are suggesting that her race with Jeff Colliton may be a referendum on Eugster. People may seek to suck the air out of Eugster's balloon by removing his supporters on the council. It's a sad development, because Eugster was a most promising council member, with a great mind for what needs to be done to save the city. But now the standard bearer of the local reform movement has driven away much of the effort's support by his excessive use of lawsuits instead of legislation. If Rodgers loses her seat, she and all those who believe in reforming the city can perhaps thank Eugster for destroying the movement from within.
And Colliton is no alternative, as he is unrepentant for his role in the River Park Square garage controversy -- as a city councilman in 1997, he voted for the deal that turned out to be so deeply flawed. Yes, the mall has been good for downtown, but the council he served on failed to apply due diligence to the inner workings of the financial deal, which could cost the city $40 million more than it baragained for.
Despite her flaws, Rodgers has just the right disposition on the council to be a part of a more cooperative future. She is respectful and respected. She works extremely hard on understanding all the functions of the city, and she has become a kind of Erin Brockovich-esque expert from her years on the council. With a little refocusing, she could start to apply what she has learned to specific legislative initiatives that could help make this a better city.
I-747 * Property Taxes
Tim Eyman's last initiative, I-722, which capped property tax increases at two percent, was declared unconstitutional. Now we have Initiative 747, which aims to fix all that by going one better and capping property tax increases at one percent per year. As we have said before, if Eyman wants to be involved in the state budget writing process, he should run for the state legislature -- he certainly has the political savvy to win a seat. But initiatives that seek to micromanage the budget writers twist the original intention of initiatives, which first came into being to address progressive issues that were not getting attention from state legislatures. Those issues traditionally have always held the public good in common, until recent times when initiatives sought to limit taxes as a way to shrink government. The problem here is that these initiatives often undermine that common good by appealing to the lowest common denominator. They ask people to make complex funding decisions that have far-reaching impacts along with a bevy of unintended consequences. Budget writing may be the highest art form in government, and to think that everyday people can just jump in and do it just as well as the experts is akin to passing over a qualified surgeon and doing your own open-heart surgery.
We all want lower taxes, of course, and more efficient government, but these initiatives are sold as if there is no downside -- as if government will just waste your money as long as you let it. That is ludicrous, and there certainly would be a downside to passing I-747 -- perhaps as much as $500,000 a year in Spokane County. It's also worth pointing out that property tax increases are already capped at the rate of inflation, or roughly three percent.
Fire departments have been identified as the biggest losers in this equation, perhaps eventually needing to run special annual levy votes to maintain funding. As we have seen in recent weeks, our public safety employees are among our greatest assets. To force them to beg is no way to run a society. Neither is asking the citizens to write our state budgets -- that's why we elect a legislature.
I-755 * Home Care Quality
While the natural impulse is usually against creating more bureaucracy at the state level, Initiative 755 promises cost savings by regulating the home health care system. As the baby boomers reach retirement age and beyond within the next 20 years, the strain on state and federal budgets will be significant, as Medicare and Medicaid fund many of the services to which they are entitled. Home health care offers a lower-cost alternative to placing people in nursing homes -- and it's an alternative many older people would prefer. By creating a reliable and accountable home health care system, the state could save millions by being more efficient. Yes, there is a cost to creating a new system, but that cost will be shared by the state and the federal government.
There's also an element of public safety involved in I-755, too, as the new Home Care Quality Authority, overseen by appointees of the Governor, would allow those seeking home health care to find out crucial information about those service-providing companies and individuals they may hire. Users of the home health care system deserve to be given the information they need to make good decisions on that most basic human issue: health.
One caveat: Implementing such a new system will take flexibility. When a bureaucracy issues rejections more eagerly than it approves valid new proposals, it does us all a disservice. Helping those already in the field succeed under the new rules should be made as easy as possible so good home health providers aren't needlessly burdened.
I-773 * Cigarette Taxes
When the legislature fails to act on issues that need attention, the initiative process works the way it was intended. That appears to be the case with Initiative 773, which would levy higher taxes on cigarettes to help fund the state's Basic Health Plan and revive programs aimed at preventing underage smoking. This initiative does raise the specter of the majority imposing its will on the minority (smokers), but it is also progressive in that it taxes something that winds up costing society money in the long run.
Even though underage smoking is a continuing problem, the main reason for voting yes on this initiative is to expand the state's Basic Health Plan. Right now, the state's health care system is in crisis, with doctors leaving the state because they can't get paid for services rendered; meanwhile, the ranks of the underinsured or uninsured are sure to swell with the ongoing economic downturn. As of now, there are 400,000 people statewide who qualify for the Basic Health Plan but can't get into the program. The legislature has failed to expand the program, and there's no evidence to suggest they will expand it any time soon. This appears to be a logical way to address a major problem in this state. The money raised through I-773 would fund slots for at least 50,000 additional people to gain coverage. | <urn:uuid:3fc8a523-62af-4a27-808c-752b42509678> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://www.inlander.com/spokane/endorsements/Content?oid=2173882 | 2019-06-17T17:33:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627998513.14/warc/CC-MAIN-20190617163111-20190617185111-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.979531 | 2,388 | [

Commission Splits w/ Advisor from Another BD
I’m curious if anyone out there has had experience setting up commission split arrangements with advisors who are not apart of their own broker-dealer. I’ve struck up a good relationship with two agents from seperate broker-dealers (who are not looking to change I might add) that I believe could be further built upon. They are both securities licensed, but one has found the health insurance arena to be so lucrative for him in the last two years that he’s doing very little wealth management. He’s got a good chunk of clientele that he brought with him from a previous broker-dealer that he really has no time to service and do additional business with. The other advisor writes so much 401(k) business, that he has little time for the individual opportunities that arise from it. He’s got 30-40 plans that he services 4x plus every year and does a great job at it. I’ve approached both about helping them out and obviously that’s an extra layer of service they can offer their clients that they weren’t getting before and puts more dollars in all of our pockets. My broker-dealer seems agreeable to doing this. I just want to have my i’s dotted and t’s crossed from a compliance standpoint. I’d be interested in hearing from anyone who’s doing this or tried to do this previously to see what your experience has been and what should one look out for when doing this. I read these boards all the time and they’ve been very helpful…
Commissions cannot be split with different b/d…if you passed the 66 you will recall this question being asked ad nauseum
I think not. But just ask your compliance officer. You will have to clear the arrangement through them anyway, so just ask. Better yet, don’t you have a compliance manual online that you can refer to? | <urn:uuid:53e42a9c-c337-45bd-9ef2-3bf58cd5c8d0> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://www.wealthmanagement.com/forums/prospecting-marketing-and-selling/commission-splits-w-advisor-another-bd | 2019-06-18T21:15:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627998817.58/warc/CC-MAIN-20190618203528-20190618225528-00236.warc.gz | en | 0.980848 | 410 | [

Flashpack at Forty is exactly the kind of website we love to review here at The Weblog Review. It is a product of the personal passion and lifestyle of its two writers–Craig and John–namely traveling around the world on a budget at an age when most people have settled into a slower pace and just a few weeks of vacation each year.
There are dozens of travel stories on the site, dating back to December of 2009, and I would defy anyone to read a few of them without beginning to wonder just how possible it would be to hit the road themselves. Even if you’re an armchair traveler however, a site like Flashpack at Forty is terrific for getting a feel for self-guided travel nowadays, and how you don’t have to be wealthy to explore the globe.
The tone of the writing is frank and humorous, with Craig and John being unafraid to share both the high points as well as the annoyances that come with seat-of-the-pants travel. These are real life adventures, and I found it refreshing and interesting to read of unexpected little travel tidbits such as the difficulty one should expect when trying to find a Japanese ATM that will dispense cash if you have a non-Japanese bank card!
One of the best things about Flashpack at Forty is the really outstanding photography on the site, accessible from a link to the image gallery in the navigation bar. The best websites today tell stories using more than just the written word, and the subject matter of the site is well-served by the photos one will find on it. In addition, the site is further proof of just how versatile and compelling the WordPress platform can be for people who are more interested in communicating than they are getting too bogged down in technology.
Flashpack at Forty is an interesting look at at the sort of traveling most people will never be lucky enough (or, brave enough?) to do, and if you have ever wondered what it would be like to see all the places you dreamed of as a child, no matter what age you are, I would recommend giving this terrific site a look.NULL
We are seeing more and more businesses websites start to integrate blogging into their overall strategic Web presence. After all, it can only make sense to stay in touch with customers as the market for whatever product or service your company provides also changes over time.
The Simmons and Fletcher Blog is one of the best examples I’ve seen in a long time of a relatively small local business, in this case a law firm located in Houston, Texas, proactively using a blog platform to enhance its marketing.
If you own a small business that might not seem particularly well-suited to supplying regular updates for your customers as to your business, I suggest you take a look at the execution on the Simmons and Fletcher site. It just shows you how a little creativity can not only serve to inform readers but also undoubtedly lead them to bookmarking this informative website in the event they should ever need a trial lawyer or a personal injury lawyer in Houston.
As is usually the case with blogs that are installed on a sub-directory of a larger website, the Simmons and Fletcher blog is built on WordPress, which in 2012 is by far the most popular blogging platform. There is exceptional execution here with social media icons and functionality built throughout the site and every single post.
One element of web design that is exploding in popularity recently is to include a YouTube video on the sidebar to accommodate potential clients who would rather watch than read. This design includes that feature, as well as a contact form and even a link to an iPhone app associated with the law firm!
Whether you are a small business owner who is interested in looking for some ideas as to properly constructing your new business website to optimize it for conversions, or a person who lives in or around Houston, Texas and you would like to keep the name of an apparently well-known local law firm specializing in personal injury and trial law, the Simmons and Fletcher website is definitely a Internet destination to take a look at, and bookmark.
At first glance, the website for the credit card processing company BluePay almost seems to be a personal weblog, with attractive little icons and an engaging auto slider on the top of the home page that unobtrusively features different aspects of BluePay’s business.
You might not think it would be very easy to make such a visually attractive site for a company that sells integrated payment processing, credit card processing, and all in one merchant accounts but that is exactly what the designers of this website have accomplished, to their credit.
When dealing with abstract financial products it is important to present them simply as well as give people the functionality they need to dig deeper to learn more about these products, and this site certainly does.
I was amazed that even at a glance I’m able to determine whether I have a need for the types of services that BluePay offers because they are listed above the fold on the home page, accompanied by the tiny icons that I mentioned before.
You are also offered the clear opportunity to chat with an online representative live, or to e-mail the company with further questions you might have.
The best websites are ones that used deceptively simple presentation to convey myriad complex ideas, and if you go over toBluePay.com, I think you’ll find like I did that the company hits the sweet spot between great design and being informative.NULL
The officite.com website houses the Internet presence of a physician and medical web design company that clearly knows what it’s doing when it comes to creating engaging, attractive and functional websites for the medical industry.
If the website itself is any indication you’re in good hands with Officite, and understanding exactly how this website is designed so effectively could help web designers who aspire to do more than simply inform but also to create and promote a brand, whether for a company or even a personal weblog.
The site features a series of information blocks that communicate different aspects of Officite’s design capabilities. The site makes a clear connection between delivering new customers for their clients and their ability to send compelling messages to customers through outstanding design, performing local search marketing, constructing mobile websites for clients, incorporating social media and blogging into client site designs, and even serving as a doctor portal for client sites as well.
There is even a testimonial section of satisfied clients, as there really should be on any site that promises customer satisfaction nowadays.
Officite.com sits on the WordPress content management system, which has become the most popular way to create not only blogs but also static sites for people or businesses or even interesting hybrid sites that take on elements of both weblogs and static informational homepages that don’t need to change very often.
If you would like to see just how far you can go with WordPress to create a serious commercial web presence that caters to physicians and other medical professionals, go take a look act Officite.com.NULL
We have all seen blogs and websites that feature wide ranges of products for sale, but one e-commerce website that takes on aspects of a dynamic blog as well but still fulfills the function of displaying an incredibly large product line, is magidglove.com, which is a work gloves, disposable gloves, and leather work gloves supplier.
If you have assumed that showcasing a wide range of products on a website’s home page locks you into a boring collection of thumbnail images, do yourself a favor and take a look at this particular site.
Everything that construction workers and contractors need in the way of garments, gloves, safety eyewear and face protection is offered by this company and again presented in such a way that features products without cluttering the page and sending visitors to the website away.
By taking a modular approach to the design the Magid company was able to fit listings of new products, bestsellers and even a shopping cart and a sign-up sheet for their newsletter. In my opinion even if you don’t currently have a need for industrial garments and safety eyewear you could still get a lot out of this website if you are a web designer tasked with combining a lot of information with really engaging design.
We are seeing more and more websites that have taken the plunge into what I would call modern design after the uninteresting and monotonous design simplicity of the 1990s; to get an idea of where we’re headed go take a look at magidglove.com. | <urn:uuid:c7cfae1c-06d3-4792-b3b1-1a53a8c966b9> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | http://www.theweblogreview.com/review/1970/01/ | 2019-06-24T14:30:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999539.60/warc/CC-MAIN-20190624130856-20190624152856-00556.warc.gz | en | 0.964567 | 1,744 | [

I am continuously bemused by what is happening all around the planet in terms of mankind's degradation of the natural environment. We still be pursuing a consumerist-driven model that nearly always puts economic growth before environmental concerns and this is going to lead to catastrophic consequences FOR OUR CHILDREN AND THEIR CHILDREN.
This domain will host a database of articles from major media publications that I come across that are relevant to this issue. It is not all bad - I will also be posting news on positive progress with green power and technologies.

After arriving in Striaton City, Ash’s first priority is to battle for his first Gym Badge in the Unova region! But when he arrives at the Striaton Gym, Ash is surprised to discover that there are, in fact, three Gym Leaders: a trio of brothers named Cilan, Chili, and Cress. The Gym Leaders tell Ash he can choose one of them to battle, but that isn’t enough for Ash—he wants to challenge all three! They accept, and the triple match is under way.
Meanwhile, Team Rocket has also arrived in Striaton City with a new assignment: finding the remains of a research facility somewhere in the area. Once there, they must collect a mysterious substance their boss calls “future energy,” which has the power to turn dreams into reality. Knowing that they are the only ones who can handle this tough mission, Jessie, James, and Meowth proceed with excitement and confidence!
Back at the Striation City Gym, Ash manages to win the first round, pitting his Tepig against Chili’s Pansear. But he and Pikachu suffer defeat in the second match against Cress’s Panpour. It’s down to the deciding match, and Ash chooses Oshawott to go up against Cilan’s Pansage—an unfavorable matchup that has Iris worried. Can our hero overcome the disadvantage to claim his first Gym Badge? | <urn:uuid:493d32d9-acf8-4e71-826c-5b2e6a5c3299> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/14_05-triple-leaders-team-threats/ | 2019-06-24T13:45:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999539.60/warc/CC-MAIN-20190624130856-20190624152856-00556.warc.gz | en | 0.964317 | 295 | [

You, Murderino, are fresh, feisty, and fierce. You use a scent that reflects who you are with notes of grapefruit, vanilla, and honey - sweet yet tart and all sass. You know it’s always ok to fuck politeness, not to go in the woods, and you never leave your drink alone. You don't say "Sorry, not sorry" you say "LISTEN ASSHOLE!". So don't let toxic masculinity ruin the party again - Stay Sexy and Don't Get Murdered.

Recently I read a book by Dr. John Ratey’s titled Spark – Here he provides a simpler and more straightforward interesting findings, facts, and snippets, and pack them into a “1-page cheatsheet”.
Here is part one.
LESSONS AND HIGHLIGHTS
1. Exercise helps your body utilize energy more efficiently
One of the ways exercise optimizes energy usage is by triggering the production of more receptors for insulin. In the body, having more receptors means better use of blood glucose and stronger cells. Best of all, the receptors stay there, which means the newfound efficiency gets built in.
2. Regular exercise helps you:
A. Be more social
Studies show that by adding physical activity to our lives, we become more socially active—it boosts our confidence and provides an opportunity to meet people. The vigor and motivation that exercise brings helps us establish and maintain social connections.
B. Calm down
As for the trait, the majority of studies show that aerobic exercise significantly alleviates symptoms of any anxiety disorder. But exercise also helps the average person reduce normal feelings of anxiousness.
C. Fight depression
In Britain, doctors now use exercise as a first-line treatment for depression, but it’s vastly underutilized in the United States, and that’s a shame.
D. Improve focus
Paradoxically, one of the best treatment strategies for ADHD involves establishing extremely rigid structure. Over the years, I’ve heard countless parents offer the same observation about their ADHD children: Johnny is so much better when he’s doing tae kwon do.
E. Fight unhealthy addictions
In smokers, just five minutes of intense exercise can be beneficial. Nicotine is an oddball among addictive substances as it works as a stimulant and a relaxant at the same time. Exercise fights the urge to smoke because in addition to smoothly increasing dopamine it also lowers anxiety, tension, and stress levels—the physical irritability that makes people so grouchy when they’re trying to quit. Exercise can fend off cravings for fifty minutes and double or triple the interval to the next cigarette.
F. Make better decisions
…the participants reported that an entire range of behavior related to self-regulation took a turn for the better. Not only did they steadily increase their visits to the gym, they reported that they smoked less, drank less caffeine and alcohol, ate more healthy food and less junk food, curbed impulse spending and overspending, and lost their tempers less often.
G. Have healthier babies
Exercise seems to be more than just not harmful, though. In one study, Clapp compared thirty-four newborns of exercisers to thirty-one of sedentary mothers five days after birth. There’s only so much you can do to gauge behavior at this early stage, but the babies from the exercise group “performed” better on two of six tests: they were more responsive to stimuli and better able to quiet themselves following a disturbance of sound or light. Clapp sees this as significant because it suggests that infants of exercising mothers are more neurologically developed than their counterparts from sedentary mothers.
H. Live longer!
If your brain isn’t actively growing, then it’s dying. Exercise is one of the few ways to counter the process of aging because it slows down the natural decline of the stress threshold.

A colleague of mine was terrified – crossing the Rubicon, taking the plunge, throwing himself off a cliff… Marriage terrified him. He would rather go to a Justin Beiber concert than get married. Things were horrible. He turned to us for help and before his wedding I came up with a list:
Ten Commandments for a Blissful Marital Life
- Thou shalt have eyes only for thy spouse. Thou shalt have eyes for no other person / species except thy spouse.
- Honour thy in-laws
- Thou shalt leave the toilet seat down
- Thou shalt never answer questions regarding weight, attractiveness or the need for Credit on thy credit card with an honest answer – Never
- Thou shalt not covet a La-Z-Boy
- Thou shalt never forget thy spouse’s birthday, anniversary or the anniversaries and birthdays of as many siblings and in laws as possible. Pets are not exempted.
- Thou shalt not fart in a gathering. Belching and drooling may be forgiven when small acts of atonement are made
- Thou shalt pretend to enjoy chick flicks and try to laugh at appropriate parts. There is no official ‘limit’ to beer, thou shalt remember this on game nights
- Thou shalt never answer the question ‘What are you thinking?’ with ‘Nothing’ even though that is the absolute truth
- Thou shalt never ask your spouse for their FB password and ‘like’ all their posts, tweets, pokes,suggestions, game requests etc regardless
What do you suppose will happen to my friend? Do you have any commandments that you’d like to share? | <urn:uuid:c3c47b31-82b9-4a84-8559-f3ada867d66a> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://soulsez.wordpress.com/2013/07/22/ten-commandments-for-a-blissful-marital-life/ | 2019-06-19T01:13:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627998879.63/warc/CC-MAIN-20190619003600-20190619025600-00116.warc.gz | en | 0.948371 | 341 | [

Weight loss is a struggle for many people, but when you have additional health problems to contend with, the journey to your goal weight can be even harder. Phentermine is often a great solution for those who need to lose weight but have medical issues which also need to be addressed, as is the case for the many people who struggle with their weight as a result of an underactive thyroid, known as hypothyroidism. To conclude this mystery topic, we will explain everything you need to know bout your thyroid and phentermine!
Hyperthyroidism & Hypothyroidism
The thyroid, a small gland found in the neck, acts as the control center for your body; hormones secreted by the thyroid help to maintain the brain, heart, muscles, and other organs, and help the body to use energy properly. So when something goes wrong and the result is an underactive thyroid or overactive thyroid, your metabolism either revs up too high or slows right down. These two conditions – hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism – affect the thyroid in different ways and therefore have distinct symptoms.
Hyperthyroidism is an overactive thyroid, where the body makes too much thyroid hormone, and can be thought of as your body’s systems acting like a racing car engine, as all functions speed up and become difficult to control. Hyperthyroidism is most often caused by the onset of Graves’ disease, which can result in the formation of a toxic swelling in the neck, called a goiter, protruding eyes, palpitations, sweating, diarrhea, weight loss and muscle weakness. Although sufferers experience weight loss, this is far from desirable as it results from fatigue, muscle weakness and an unhealthy body. The treatments often result in increased weakness and an inability to fight disease, which is why, in some cases, the thyroid is removed altogether.
Hypothyroidism is an underactive thyroid, whereby the body does not make enough thyroid hormone. The most common cause of hypothyroidism is an autoimmune disease called Hashimoto’s disease, a condition where the immune system makes antibodies that destroy thyroid cells and stops them from making the thyroid hormone. Hypothyroidism causes the whole body to slow down, including metabolism, heart rate and digestive tract, meaning body functions are sluggish and difficult. Symptoms of hypothyroidism include fatigue, dry hair, skin and nails, constipation, cramps, depression and weight gain. Due to their slowed metabolic rate, people with hypothyroidism can feel that they are doing everything right as far as eating and exercising goes but still struggle with weight gain, and if they’re trying to lose weight, rates can be painfully slow.
How Phentermine Helps Thyroid Problems
Despite the link between hypothyroidism and weight gain, doctors also propose that in some cases, if those with underactive thyroids actively forced themselves to maintain a normal activity level, they may only result in gaining a few pounds. Doctors explain that with many cases of weight gain as a result of hypothyroidism, due to symptoms such as depression and fatigue, sufferers are often too tired or lack the motivation to exercise and so, fall into an unhealthy cycle of decreased activity and over-eating as an emotional outlet. Therefore, in addition to medications which normalize thyroid hormone levels, sufferers of hypothyroidism who need to lose weight could greatly benefit from taking weight loss medications, such as phentermine.
Sufferers of hypothyroidism are often prescribed Synthroid, which contains levothyroxine, a synthetic form of the thyroid hormone that allows replacement of the thyroid hormone and therefore normal levels of thyroid. As a result of the normalization of thyroid levels, excess weight may be lost. However, Synthroid is not a weight loss medication, and therefore some sufferers may require additional help to lose excess weight. By increasing energy levels and decreasing appetite, phentermine can help those with hypothyroidism with the additional symptoms that come as a result of an underactive thyroid, such as tiredness and lack of energy. By encouraging sufferers to incorporate more exercise into their lives and to break the cycle of inactivity, depression and emotional eating, phentermine could enable those with hypothyroidism to reach their goal weights and also to experience an improved mood and better overall health. Sufferers of hypothyroidism who are taking phentermine can also find lots of support in the phentermine.com support group on Facebook.
It is important to stress here that phentermine and Synthroid, or any other medications, may only be taken together if they are prescribed by a doctor who is aware that the patient is taking this combination. While many people report success with weight loss while taking phentermine and Synthroid, in some cases it may be inadvisable for others to take both medications. This is due to individual differences between patients, whereby it could result in potentially harmful interactions for some people, therefore we would emphasize that the two should never be taken together without approval from your doctor.
In cases where hypothyroid patients are unable to take phentermine, but feel that they could benefit from additional help to lose excess weight, the weight loss supplement Phen Caps provides an excellent alternative to phentermine. Phen Caps also boost energy levels and reduce appetite, so those with hypothyroidism can benefit from these effects to help them be more active and eat better as part of a healthy lifestyle that can be maintained in the long term. As with phentermine, we recommend that you consult your doctor before taking Phen Caps if you are taking other medications, but as Phen Caps have no known side effects and can be taken for as long as necessary, with your doctors’ approval they can form part of a healthy lifestyle resulting in weight loss alongside the management of hypothyroidism.

Accessories are designed to enhance the utility of a laptop computer. There are a number of useful accessories available in the market for the MacBook Pro, which can make it more useful, more helpful, and increase its style quotient as well.
However, before you go ahead with the purchase, you must decide whether you need a specific accessory or not. Also, since the MacBook Pro comes in 3 different sizes (13 inches, 15 inches, and 17 inches), you need to make sure that you get the accessories that are best suited for the size of your gadget.
These accessories will offer you different attributes, like better protection for the laptop, greater amount of memory and RAM which increases efficiency and performance, better audio output and multimedia experience, more protection, etc.
The following are a few of the must-have MacBook Pro accessories that you should definitely consider getting your hands on.
A wireless computer mouse and a computer keyboard that work on the Bluetooth technology, and are compatible with a MacBook, will be very useful additions to your computer. They can greatly improve the functionality, and convenience of using the laptop. You can easily get these devices from the Apple store itself.
This tiny little piece of hardware lets you control the movie player on the MacBook. It's really a very simple yet ingeniously designed device, that can surely come in handy in many situations. The Apple Remote is certainly a useful accessory to have.
External Hard Drive
If you have a large amount of digital data, then you can consider getting an external hard drive for your MacBook. This will give you greater storage space and portability as well. Today you can find hard drives with capacities of 1 TB and 2 TB, so space for data storage and backup, will never be a problem for you, if you get this accessory.
If you want to enjoy music and movies on your MacBook, then a good pair of speakers is an essential buy. High-end speakers will cost a fair amount of money, but the kind of sound quality and features that they offer, make them worth the buck. Speakers with 5.1 surround sound are best for watching movies. You may even consider going for comparatively inexpensive speakers, which too should offer you decent audio output.
There are many different accessories that you can make use of in order to protect your MacBook Pro. These come in the form of bags, cases, sleeves etc., and are dependent on the size of your MacBook. Having these protective accessories can ensure that your laptop stays protected from damage, especially when you are traveling with it.
The following are some more accessories that may be useful for you.
- Notebook stands
- Notebook locks
- Power adapters
- Griffin HDMI video display converter
- Additional RAM
- Bluetooth dongles
- Screen protectors
It may not be possible for you to get a hold of all these accessories, so you need to find the right ones that your laptop requires. Note that, most of them do not come cheap, so take a call about the ones you need more than the others, in order to make your MacBook Pro more useful and functional. | <urn:uuid:a52bb03f-0947-43c5-bd3e-22e7f0fd0244> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://techspirited.com/must-have-macbook-pro-accessories | 2019-06-20T05:20:51Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999141.54/warc/CC-MAIN-20190620044948-20190620070948-00276.warc.gz | en | 0.929479 | 633 | [

By Nadhra Salman.
After interacting with many women, I’ve discovered something really strange.Women differ a lot in nature, unlike men.It is Because most men have the same habits and are coarse in most aspects.On the contrary women are thought to be polite, soft and sweet,which is actually not true!!.Few women are as tough as leather while others are as sweet as honey,some are extremely loving and caring while many are extremely cold,proud and inconsiderate.
So depending upon her nature, a woman can either make her house a Jannah (Paradise) or even worse than hell….
In old age,women often tend to lose their patience and scold children,their daughters or their daughter in laws.Most girls assume their mother in laws to be harsh and some even call them Dracula, but if we observe closely then we’ll come to know that they possess a loving heart.Its just the age factor and few other factors that make them sound strict and harsh. We should never judge a book by its cover.If one’s mother in law sounds really harsh or always sarcastic, even then a girl should always respect her, take good care of her and spend her energies in making her happy(coz it’s a difficult task).Most importantly she should consider her as her own mother and behave accordingly.
Allah says “Thy Lord hath decreed that ye worship none but Him, and that ye be kind (Ihsan) to parents. Whether one or both of them attain old age in thy life, say not to them a word of contempt, nor repel them, but address them in terms of honor. And, out of kindness, lower to them the wing of humility, and say: My Lord! Bestow on them thy Mercy even as they cherished me in childhood.” [Al-Quran 17:23]
“Your lord has decreed that you worship non but him and show kindness to parents. If one or both reach old age with you then do not say uff! To them nor repulse them, but speak graciously to them”[Al-Quranl 17:23]
The most important thing of all is she should always remain silent and never rebuke.A girl who is willing to make her house a really peaceful place should sacrifice a bit by making silence a policy in front of her mother in law. In this way she also pleases Allah and will get immense reward for her patience.
Allah says: ”Only those who are patient shall receive their reward in full,without reckoning” [Al-Quran 39:10]
”And verily,whosoever shows patience and forgives,that would truly be from the things recommended by Allah” [Al-Quran 42:43]
It has also been observed that many girls who are polite, and behave well towards their mother in law are often loved greatly by their husbands.On the other hand if there are always fights going on in any house, man gets disturbed and it affects him so he seeks a solution for this problem and may also end up in divorcing her.
Sometimes its also seen that men become their wives servants and forsake their mothers. That is extremely unethical,immoral and displeases Allah greatly.So men should keep balance b/w the two and should always keep in mind that its just coz of their mothers that they have attained this much height so a new woman to a family shouldn’t make him forget the old one; Because ”OLD IS ALWAYS GOLD”. Moreover by displeasing Allah no can please others.
Allah says in Quran: “O humankind! Be in awe of your Lord and Sustainer, He who created you all from a single soul, and created from it its mate, and from the two of them brought forth many men and women. Be in awe of Allah and of the wombs (that bore you). Surely Allah is watching over you”. [Al-Quran 4:1]
Narrated by Aisha Umm al-Muminin: “I asked the Prophet (sas): Who has the greatest right over a woman? He (sas) said:her husband . I said: And who has the greatest right over a man? He (sas) said:his mother .”(Al-Haakim – taken from Fiqh As-Sunnah)
In another hadith it has been reported by Abu Huraira:
I asked, “Messenger of Allah, to whom should I be dutiful?” He replied, “Your mother.” I asked, “Then whom?” He replied, “Your mother.” I asked, “Then whom?” He replied, “Your mother.” I asked, “Then whom?” He replied, “Your mother.” I asked, “Then to whom should I be dutiful?” He replied, “Your father,and then the next closest relative and then the next.”…..(Saheeh Muslim)
Unfortunately where materialism and liberalism has affected the non-Muslims, it has not left Muslims unaffected,especially our women,who have lost their ability to think in their attempts to gain temporary pleasures of this world. They love to imitate the kuffar (Non-Muslims) and violate laws set by Allah. Many are negligent in their duties towards Islam.
A Muslim woman who wishes to gain Allah’s acceptance, should always make efforts to please Allah. She should always keep in her mind the Jannah and rewards that Allah has promised for believing women.
She should avoid rivalry and disputes with her mother in law by staying tolerant and ignore her short comings. This can happen if she starts loving her for the sake of Allah.And Allah loves those who love others for His sake. Thinking about worldly comforts and interests might jeopardize her position among Allah’s blessed slaves. She should remain wise and totally reject the idea of bartering this transitory life for the eternal one.
Allah says in Quarn: “Verily! As for those who believe and do righteous deeds, certainly! We shall not suffer to be lost the reward of anyone who does his (righteous) deeds in the most perfect manner”. [Al-Quran 18:30]
This doesn’t mean that i am supporting those mother in laws who harass or physically or mentally torture their daughter in laws. Allah Almighty is very merciful and just. If a woman’s survival becomes difficult due to extreme cruelty of her mother in law and she believes that she can’t bear or compromise, then Islam has given her a right to ask for khula. If any couple fails to live in harmony then they can separate.
Allah says: “If the efforts for settlement are unsuccessful then you may separate in accordance with the instructions given by Allah Almighty . Do not let the fear of being left without provision become a hurdle in separation. The Divine System will provide for you in abundance. Allah Almighty is Bountiful and Wise. [Al-Quran 4:130]
Another important thing that contributes to a happy life, which most women ignore is to remain silent in front of their husbands. There are some who keep on complaining about their circumstances as a consequence many men out of desperation seek unlawful haraam (forbiddened) sources of income and in this way prepare themselves and their husbands to be the fuel of hell fire. In this case too,its all about being patient and silent. Much could be overcome if only women possess these qualities.
It has been narrated on the authority of Ibn ‘Umar that the Holy Prophet (May be upon him) said A man is a guardian over the members of his family and shall be questioned about them (as to how he looked after their physical and moral well-being). A woman is a guardian over the household of her husband and his children and shall be questioned about them (as to how she managed the household and brought up the children). A slave is a guardian over the property of his master and shall be questioned about it (as to how he safeguarded his trust). Beware, every one of you is a guardian and every one of you shall be questioned with regard to his trust. (Sahih Muslim)
Our history is full of women of character,the women of Jannah. The Ummahaat and their dedication towards Islam,their patience and their dislike for the worldly goods.
Hazrat Asmaa Bint Abu Bakr a noble woman,daughter of a rich man, at the time when she got married to Hazrat Zubair,he had only a horse and was very poor .She faced all hardships with patience and was thankful to Allah.
She reported: “az-Zubair (Ibn al-`Awwam, the cousin of the Prophet Mohammad, through his aunt) married me. He had neither wealth, slave or anything else like it, except a camel (to get water) and a horse. I used to graze his horse, [provide fodder to it and look after it, and ground dates for his camel. Besides this, I grazed the camel], made arrangements for providing [it with] water and patched up [his] leather bucket and kneaded the flour. But I was not proficient in baking the bread, so my female neighbors used to bake bread for me [and they were sincere women]. And I used to carry on my head the stones (seeds) of the d~tes from az-Zubair’s land which Allaah’s Messenger had endowed him, and it was at a distance of two miles (from Madinah).
To make her home filled with love,peace and Allah’s blessing a woman should compromise and do everything in her power to prevent the destruction of her married life.
Therefore in many cases silence is the best policy- women should inculcate this

14th August 1947, there are not enough people who can forget this date.
Whether you are a national or no it does not matter. It was the day when Mohammad Ali Jinnah (Quaid-e-azam) showed the world something that they were not expecting at all. To everyone’s surprise a new country came into existence known as “Pakistan” it was this day. That gave a new hope a new life and a new reason of existence for all Muslims and people of Indian Subcontinent. People who were looking forward for such a moment and gave all that they had. Let it be the finances the life or anything. They made sure they put everything on stake for this moment to come.
It has been decades that this country has come into existence. And since that day fighting for its survival and existence. Thanks to the leadership that it has got till now (apart from few). This country has only known how to sacrifice and submit. Submission of a good healthy and prosperously successful future. Education, financial state and you name it. Sufferings and sacrifices where only things citizen of this country knew. Eventually and unwillingly to survive they had to move to different countries and areas.
It was until 25th july 2018, when the citizen of Pakistan said a big ‘NO’ to everything and stood up for their rights and raise voice.
This awareness came from the cricketer turned politician Imran Khan who endlessly and vigorously worked day in day out. To give the people of Pakistan the vision and familiarize them with their rights and gave them a reason to live and see a new world. In his terms ‘Naya Pakistan’ it was this call that gave the citizens of Pakistan a new hope to live for.
Against all odds made sure that this time the victory is of Imran Khan and his Naya Pakistan for all the right reasons. Voting enthusiastically and having the urge to change their future for the better they voted his party Pakistan Tahreek-e-insaf (PTI) in the Pakistan general elections 2018. Giving him a clear path to be the next Prime Minister of Pakistan or in local language ‘wazirazam Pakistan’ with all the authority to fulfil the promises he made to the public.
So if you are also a patriot and would like to show your support for Imran Khan his Naya Pakistan and prove you are also against the forces that do not want Pakistan to grow. Then you can support the cause by clicking on the below image and ordering your favourite piece. So you can wear it this 14th august 2018 and show your love and support for Pakistan. Many options are available.

Enhanced odds aren't just for new customers, that's what dabblebet believe and they're taking on a trio of relegation contenders ahead of the new Premier League season.
The prices below are available to anyone with an account, with a maximum stake of £25.
The Clarets are likely to prove a very popular pick in this market over the next few days. Sean Dyche's side survived last term thanks to an incredible home record but Turf Moor is unlikely to yield 33 points this time around.
Not least because of the departure of key centre back Michael Keane, who has departed for Everton leaving the squad looking pretty thin on the ground. With a woeful away record last term the Lancashire club ended up on 40 points and this could be one step too far for Burnley who are likely to have a fraction of the transfer budget of those around them in the relegation battle.
Last season they faced 17.7 shots per game which was the second highest in the division and in attack they mustered just 10.3 per match, behind only Middlesbrough and Sunderland who both finished in the bottom three places.
The addition of Jon Walters and Jack Cork, while solid players in their own right, will do little to ease those doubts over the depth of the squad and dabblebet's industry best price of 6/4 (2.50) looks a great option for those who believe the Clarets will come up short.
As if kicking off the new season against champions Chelsea wasn't a tough enough start, Burnley then face Tottenham and Liverpool in their first five league matches. That 6/4 (2.50) could be long gone by the time mid-September rolls around.
The Hornets have changed their manager again, bringing in Marco Silva who was unable to save Hull City from the drop despite some admirable performances after taking over from Mike Phelan.
While Silva drew plaudits for his approach with the Tigers, the 40-year-old could be in for another tough time after Watford ended the season in dismal form with six straight defeats to finish the campaign in 17th spot.
The Magpies are certainly seen as the promoted side with the best chance of retaining their Premier League status but Rafael Benitez is already cutting a frustrated figure this summer.
Seemingly unable to strengthen the squad in the way he would like, despite assurances from owner Mike Ashley, several bookmakers are keeping the Spaniard short in the sack race market.
While they're not expected to be in a relegation scrap after returning to the top flight, dabblebet's 9/2 (5.50) is a joint best price at the time of writing and could appeal to those who foresee a rocky season at St James' Park. | <urn:uuid:55da69c2-ba7a-4f89-b30b-302dffe49ade> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://www.goal.com/en-my/news/betting-enhanced-odds-on-burnley-watford-and-newcastle-to-be/g19e8zgd9d261wlk70d9k700k | 2019-06-16T18:58:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627998291.9/warc/CC-MAIN-20190616182800-20190616204800-00236.warc.gz | en | 0.968033 | 563 | [

Thanks so much to our speakers, and our moderator, Wendy Kramer, for a very lively and thought provoking discussion. A special thanks to Kym who worked so hard to set things up, only to miss the meeting and the fun due to a death in the family. Our thoughts are with her and her family now I am sure.
Though the subject controversial, I think it is fair to say that we dodged many of the booby traps in the mine field, to use a guy warlike metaphor. I think Wendy had her…Continue

As I’ve said before, I’m over the teenage girls at my church. Along with the other adult women I work with, we adore these girls. We’re a small group and have become very close over the past several years. But suddenly, they’re all growing up and moving on. Moving to different states, going off to college…sigh. The line “Everybody’s changing and I don’t feel the same” in a song by Keane keeps going through my mind.
My niece, Meg, is also heading off to college this month. She’s going to Brigham Young University (BYU), which I also attended, and which is also where I met my husband. I’ve been thinking about my time there a lot since I’ve been working on the above quilt to give her. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…
I distinctly remember my first day on campus. We’d driven to Utah from California and it was time for my parents to head back. It was very early in the morning (my dad always liked to get an early start) and gray outside. I remember standing in my pink terrycloth robe and as my parents drove away I started to cry. There were only a handful of girls in the dorm and classes didn’t even start for another several days. It was quiet and a little lonely. But soon, more students arrived, activities began, I met my husband, classes started and I had the time of my life!
Blogs are about truthfulness and honesty, right? Well, here is mine. I was kicked out of BYU after that first year for bad grades. Yeah, I’m not real proud of it, although sometimes I share it like I am. There were SO many things to do and no one to answer to! And when you meet someone special, well, let’s just say classes took a back seat for me. But, just so you know, after my husband and I were married, I did go back to college and graduated cum laude. That’s something, right?
Anyway, here’s a quilt for Meg made from Michael Miller’s Gypsy Bandana line. It was a dual effort with my mom. She cut and put the top together and I quilted it. It screams to be kept in my home, but alas, I shall part with it.
Because the fabric patterns are so bold, we just went with large blocks, almost as if you had several gypsy bandanas and sewed them together.
And a coordinating pillowcase!
So, Dear Meg,
Good luck this year! Go to class and study. You’ll still have plenty of time to hang out with friends, meet boys and discover all there is to discover at BYU. It’s an awesome place and you’ll love it! This time is yours to discover who you are and what YOU want your life to be. Your mom can’t decide that for you anymore. It’s up to you and anything is possible. We love you!
I drafted this post before I saw Meg today. In giving her the “go to class/study” pep talk, my mom reminded her to not make her aunt’s or her mom’s mistakes. She replied, “Why would I want to make someone else’s mistakes? I’m going to make my own.” Yeah, she’s a smart cookie. | <urn:uuid:6bd9f606-7869-457c-b239-c41c3a657528> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | http://www.leslieunfinished.com/2011/08/13/college-bound-quilt | 2019-06-20T09:23:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999200.89/warc/CC-MAIN-20190620085246-20190620111246-00156.warc.gz | en | 0.979412 | 750 | [

Harassment Judgment Against Wyoming Military Department Is The First Of Its Kind
The judgment in federal court last week against the Wyoming Military Department for sexual harassment marked the first such victory since the launch of a new program in the U.S. Department of Justice, according to a news release from the Wyoming U.S. Attorney's Office.
“The verdict sends the clear message that this Justice Department will continue to effectively combat sex-based discrimination whenever it occurs in a public sector workplace," said Acting Assistant Attorney General John Gore of the Civil Rights Division.
This case began at Camp Guernsey in October 2010 when Amanda Dykes returned from maternity leave and her immediate supervisor Don Smith -- the former director of the Wyoming Military Department’s Youth Challenge Program -- told her he wanted a personal relationship with her, according to court records.
Dykes repeatedly rejected his advances, asked him to keep their relationship on a professional level, and filed complaints, but her supervisors and human resources officers didn't help.
The supervisor’s actions and the department's lack of assistance caused Dykes to resign in September 2011, according to court records.
She originally filed her sexual harassment charge against the Wyoming Military Department with the Denver Field Office of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. The EEOC determined there was reasonable cause to believe discrimination had occurred and referred the matters to the Department of Justice, which sued in 2016.
U.S. District Court Judge Scott Skavdahl conducted a bench trial in July 2017, and issued his judgment Thursday. He ordered the Wyoming Military Department to give her a back pay award totaling $221,030.62.
According to the news release from the Wyoming U.S. Attorney's Office, this judgment represents the first successful sexual harassment trial verdict obtained in a Title VII case since the launch of the Civil Rights Division’s Sexual Harassment in the Workplace Initiative.
The Justice Department said it will continue to bring sex discrimination claims against state and local government employers with a renewed emphasis on sexual harassment charges, according to the news release.
It also will work to develop effective remedial measures that can be used to hold public sector employers accountable where Title VII violations have been found, including changing existing employer practices and policies to create safer work environments. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits employment discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex or national origin. | <urn:uuid:968ea2b7-a3cd-41d6-9397-ca655bcc9c2c> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://rock967online.com/harassment-judgment-against-wyoming-military-department-is-the-first-of-its-kind/ | 2019-06-20T08:57:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999200.89/warc/CC-MAIN-20190620085246-20190620111246-00156.warc.gz | en | 0.959925 | 488 | [

Initial Identification: How will children with FASDs present to your clinic?
Children with FASDs may present with a range of characteristics or parental concerns. Parents or other members of the clinic team (MA, nurses) who have some knowledge of FASD may bring these issues to your attention.
- Developmental, cognitive, behavioral concerns
- Won't follow directions
- Doesn't pay attention
- Not learning
- Impulsive (does things he knows he shouldn't do)
- Specific dysmorphic facial characteristics
- Growth deficits
- History of maternal alcohol use reported by a parent or discovered by a foster/adoptive parent. Parents who bring this to your attention are often looking for reassurance, or searching for an explanation for their child’s problems.
FASDs should be considered in the differential diagnosis for all children with growth, developmental, or behavioral problems. Children known to have been exposed to alcohol should be assessed for FASD.
Other risk factors include:
- Other related exposures associated with alcohol use (e.g., tobacco, marujuana, cocaine, methamphetamine)
- Adoption, particularly from endemic regions (e.g., Russia/Eastern Europe, South Africa)
- History of foster care/children in child welfare
Referral for FASD assessment may come from adoption professionals, child welfare providers, and others for these reasons. There should be a low threshold for assessing children with these risk factors for FASD.
Sometimes, it’s just a matter of parental concern. This may occur as parents do their own research on their child’s problems and find information on FASD, or if a friend or relative suggests they ask the child’s doctor about FASD. | <urn:uuid:fdf7a94f-d36a-4760-bb77-ed15e4faf162> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://ce.icep.wisc.edu/content/how-will-children-fasds-present-your-clinic | 2019-06-26T03:17:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560628000044.37/warc/CC-MAIN-20190626013357-20190626035357-00476.warc.gz | en | 0.933067 | 363 | [

While the definition of sufi music is getting blurred in these modern times, especially when bands are trying to add different elements to the devotional style, Kailash Kher's band Kailasa still treads the path where fusion and devotion are juxtaposed with sincerity. The singer says the aim of their music is not just to entertain, but also to enlighten the masses."Kailasa's music is not just entertainment, but it is very enlightening also. The music doesn't entertain, but creates an awakening in the listener. It opens the mind, gives a vision and at the same time, gives fun to the listener," Kailash told IANS on the sidelines of the SulaFest here. Kailasa, which treads the path of spiritual Indian music while also incorporating western elements, has existed since 2005 and has released four studio albums till date. The band has played live in India and across the globe, thus spreading their sound and vision on a grand scale.
Yet, after all these years of creating and performing music, Kailash says that the band always assesses the crowd at their concerts, as he doesn't want to sound too preachy with his message. "We decide our repertoire because we have a limited set of time. So among us, we decide what kind of crowd it is. We think that there are so many songs by Kailasa which cater to different moods," Kailash said.For most performers, especially Kailash, having an intimate connection with the crowd is pertinent. However, sometimes it is also important to not go overboard with the message, he says."The relation between audience and performer is very intimate. It is a love-based relationship. You know the vibe... how you will impress your lover. You need to feel the love, so in that case, you need to decide the repetoire," the 42-year-old said. So how does Kailasa try to modify the inherent spirituality of the music while performing on stage?"Along with fun, our music also teaches. So, we have to think before delivering this kind of music to a particular audience. We have to assess the crowd at each concert and think how much of our message do we need to deliver. We can't also be very spiritual at such places because everyone is there to have fun," Kailash said.
"They (the crowd) are with their girlfriends or boyfriends. So, if I start getting preachy with the spiritual message, then they might think that I am a hermit," he quipped. Kailasa, who performed at the ninth edition of the SulaFest here on Sunday, are now ready with their new album "Ishq Anokha". According to Kailash, the message of the album is yet again spiritual, but he, very mystically, refused to divulge much information about the music itself."Kailasa's new album 'Ishq Anokha' comes out next month. Whatever comes in that will be new and I won't be able to tell you about that," Kailash said.For someone who has been living his life as a musician and as an artiste devoted to his craft, Kailash says he doesn't "waste a single moment" being who he is not.
"Some things that I may not be able to express in another language, so whatever you have been given by the almighty, you have to use that. We are giving the same message in our new album 'Ishq Anokha'," Kailash said.What is also important for Kailash is to not treat his music merely as "work". "In this world, if you do some work where you are in solitude, whatever emotions which come in your head, whatever aspirations you have, when you want to impress others, when you start living like that, you work will not be merely work, but something unique," he said. | <urn:uuid:1c626d2e-07a5-4aa1-871d-29705cbbeb77> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | http://www.5dariyanews.com/news/140251-Kailasas-music-not-entertaining-but-enlightening-Kailash-Kher | 2019-06-27T08:19:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560628001014.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190627075525-20190627101525-00076.warc.gz | en | 0.981016 | 810 | [

Mister Ron's Basement #556
Frederic Thomas Somerby, writing under the pen name of 'Cymon' ran a column of sketches of the people and doings in the beautiful, quaint town of Newburyport, for the readers of The Boston Post. In 1852, he published a collection of these pieces under the title 'Hits and Dashes, or A Medley of Sketches and Scraps Touching People and Things.'
While many of these 'Cymon' sketches appear to be true stories, this one may be a bit tongue in cheek. Still, the author paints a colorful picture in a tale of two whitewashers and a barrel of spirits in 'Whitewashing Extraordinary.'
Time: approx six minutes

Pregnancy is supposed to be such a magical and exciting time of your life. You should be glowing, radiant and thriving as you grow a tiny human. But what about when that’s not the case? What happens when this exciting time of your life actually becomes life threatening, when you risk going into renal failure from severe dehydration, when you’re throwing up so much you’re physically and mentally exhausted?
Hyperemesis Gravidarum gained some attention when the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton experienced Hyperemesis in her pregnancy. Unfortunately it’s still a widely misunderstood condition, with some doctors even refusing to treat it.
So here’s a coverage of just some of the things you don’t know about Hyperemesis Gravidarum, but really should.
1 – It’s not just ‘bad morning sickness’
Every time the media reported on Kate Middleton as having a ‘bad bout of morning sickness’ I wanted to throw something at the TV! Hyperemesis is not morning sickness. It’s like comparing a papercut with cutting your arm off. Sure, they’re both cuts and they both bleed but one is easily managed, the other is life threatening.
So often women suffering with hyperemesis will have friends say ‘oh I had that too, I just ate crackers and had ginger and got on with my day’. While the intention may be to reassure, this statement does anything but. If you’re able to ‘get on with your day’ you’re not suffering from hyperemesis.
2 – Ginger won’t help
Those of us who have experienced hyperemesis will attest, ginger does absolutely nothing (trust us, we’ve tried it all) and it hurts like hell to throw back up! The medications we are treated with are the same as those given to chemotherapy patients, and no we don’t want your opinion on whether or not you think they are safe. We discuss with our healthcare provider what is the best options for us and that’s all there is to it.
The same goes for recommendations of crackers, sea bands, peppermint tea, eating frequently, eating before getting out of bed, getting outside and exercise. Thank you but no thank you.
3 – It’s not a mental health condition
Although it can have incredibly detrimental effects on our mental health, hyperemesis itself is not a mental health condition. That is, that it is not caused by any level of depression, anxiety or any other psychological cause.
It is devastating when we hear that there are some ‘medical professionals’ around the world who suggest ‘treating’ hyperemesis with a holiday and reducing stress of everyday life. It’s like suggesting you should treat your broken leg with positive thinking and bed rest.
Stress goes hand in hand with hyperemesis. Women are often forced to leave their jobs, exhaust all of their sick pay and end up without an income. Add to that the cost of medication and doctor’s visits and the financial strain really starts to add up.
4 – Women can throw up in excess of 100 times a day
Do the math… that’s more than 4 times an hour, every single hour of the day. Women who suffer from hyperemesis are no strangers to excessive vomiting. In some cases, women vomit so frequently they start to form small tears in their esophagus which begin to bleed, resulting in ‘vomiting blood’. These tears rarely have a chance to heal due to the continued vomiting.
This results in women becoming severely dehydrated, malnourished, weak and often struggling to even stay awake.
5 – Our teeth become seriously damaged and cost a fortune to repair
Because we throw up so much stomach acid, it has a decaying effect on our teeth. During my first pregnancy, one of my teeth actually just broke off which resulted in a quick trip to the dentist. Since my first pregnancy I’ve had numerous trips to the dentist to repair the excessive damage caused by hyperemesis.
Unfortunately, this damage then recurs in subsequent pregnancies. Meaning more dentist trips and a small fortune to repair.
6 – We often require multiple hospital trips and stays
Due to the severe dehydration and inability to keep fluids down, we often require multiple hospital trips and sometimes even admissions. IV fluids are a godsend and can help us get through a day or two at a time.
For some women this isn’t enough and they require extensive hospital admissions to manage their dehydration, malnourishment and electrolyte imbalances. When your body becomes so severely depleted, your organs can begin to shut down, you can go into renal failure and start to throw arrhythmias that cause your heart to not function properly.
In serious cases women can require a nasogastric tube to help keep their stomach acid levels in check, IV fluids, medications and steroids, a PICC line or a central line (which carries a high risk of infection) due to their veins collapsing from so many IV’s and dehydration, as well as feeding tubes just to survive.
7 – Hyperemesis can cause PTSD and increase anxiety anytime we are unwell
Once you have experienced hyperemesis, the stress and the trauma of the condition stays with you. If you become unwell after having hyperemesis, it can trigger off anxiety and make you start to freak out about being so sick again. It’s a majorly traumatic time of your life and the effects are long lasting.
8 – No one knows what causes it
There’s speculation about hyperemesis being genetic, but neither my mother or grandmother experienced it and a lot of women are in the same situation. There’s debates about whether it’s to do with gut bacteria, liver function or if it’s just one of those things that some people get and other’s don’t.
It is believed to affect around 2% of pregnancies, however that number is more than likely higher due to lack of diagnosis. What is amazing is that on average, 3% – 10% of pregnant women suffer from Gestational Diabetes and yet the majority of people have heard of this condition. Such a small difference in incidents however such a massive difference in education.
9 – Your support means the world to us
Hyperemesis can be quite isolating. It can feel like your life is just going on around you and you’re not actually part of it because all you do is throw up and sleep. It’s exhausting and lonely. But, having your support means the absolute world to us.
You don’t have to make it better or offer advice, just sitting there with us can be the most amazing thing. Knowing we have someone close who will listen, without telling us to eat ginger biscuits, is just so reassuring and so comforting.
If you have a friend or family member who is suffering through hyperemesis, do whatever you can to help. She needs it. Even if it’s doing the dishes, sitting with her or taking her kids to the park. Whatever you can do, do it. She will be so incredibly grateful.

Four people have topped the list of the most trustworthy politicians – and they all have one thing in common.
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, Labor Senator Penny Wong, former Liberal foreign minister Julie Bishop and Labor’s deputy leader Tanya Plibersek have been named among the Australian people’s most trusted leaders.
The leadership survey asked 1400 Australians to rate leaders on qualities such as relevance, integrity, commitment, shared values, affinity and follow through.
Results from the study show that Australia’s three most credible federal leaders are all women.
Bizarrely, the most trusted leader of all isn’t even Australian.
Ms Arden emerged as the most popular leader in Ogilvy PR’s ‘Believability Index’ with a score of 77 per cent.
She made history last year when she was the first world leader to attend the United Nations general assembly with her newborn baby in tow.
The popular PM was also praised for her display of compassion and leadership following the Christchurch massacre on March 15 that killed 50 Muslim worshippers.
On home soil, Senator Penny Wong was ranked the most trusted federal legislator with a score of 53 per cent.
A new Australia Institute poll also found that Senator Wong is the fourth most recognised politician on the front bench of either major party, putting her in front of Treasurer Josh Frydenberg and Liberal MP Christopher Pyne.
“Senator Wong is more well known than almost all of the current Cabinet,” Australia Institute’s executive director Ben Oquist said.
If Labor wins the May 18 election, Senator Wong will become the leader of the government in the Senate and the new foreign affairs minister.
The Coalition’s former foreign minister Julie Bishop scored 52 per cent in the ‘Believability Index’ and will retire with the highest name recognition (77 per cent) of all current Coalition ministers.
Ms Bishop has held the federal seat of Curtin since winning it in 1998 and became Australia’s first female foreign minister in 2013 under the Abbott government.
She announced her retirement from politics in February, six months after Mr Morrison beat her attempt to become prime minister in last year’s leadership spill.
Senator Wong and Ms Bishop were given higher scores than the prime minister and Opposition Leader Bill Shorten, who scored 43 per cent and 42 per cent, respectively.
“When it comes to capturing the hearts and minds of the people they lead, it’s no longer enough to just focus on trust – that’s merely a starting point and a rational place to play,” Ogilvy PR chief strategy officer Kaz Scott said.
“More important is the ability for leaders to transcend the rational and build an emotional connection.
“That takes them from being not just trusted or believed, but believed in.”
Greens leader Richard Di Natale scored 45, narrowly beating controversial One Nation leader Pauline Hanson’s score of 44. | <urn:uuid:f9fda960-5b52-4758-aef7-3713cdf92bdf> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://thenewdaily.com.au/news/national/2019/05/08/women-politicians-trustworthy/ | 2019-06-20T13:06:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560627999218.7/warc/CC-MAIN-20190620125520-20190620151520-00036.warc.gz | en | 0.96147 | 618 | [

The injury list is ominous — broken ribs, broken noses, sinus infections, stress fractures, bronchitis, and dysentery. Not exactly an auspicious start for the first American-based professional team to compete in the Tour de France.
But as the 7-Eleven team got ready for the July 4 race start, members were philosophical about their setbacks.
“Injuries come with the territory,” said Doug Shapiro, the one Tour de France veteran on the squad, who broke his nose during Paris-Roubaix in April. “That’s part of bicycle racing.”
“Professional bike racing is definitely not good for your health,” said Ron Kiefel, who was getting over a foot stress fracture compounded by pounding of cobblestone classics.
“It’s all part of the sport. When you succeed, it’s worth it,” said Bob Roll, the only member of the team to finish Paris-Roubaix.
The 10-man 7-Eleven Tour de France team will be managed by Jim Ochowicz and Mike Neel. Members will include Chris Carmichael of Berkeley, CA; Alexi Grewal of Boulder, CO; Eric Heiden of Woodside, CA; Kiefel of Boulder, CO; Davis Phinney of Copper Mountain, CO; Roll of San Francisco, CA; Shapiro of Boulder, CO; Alex Stieda of Coquitlam, British Columbia; and Raul Alcala of Mexico City. Jeff Pierce of San Diego, CA who rides for Schwinn-Icy Hot in the U.S., will also be on the team.
In an interview with Steida, Geoff Drake reports that the team was “living in a brothel in Ghent.” Stieda said, “You can rent it by the hour. There are mirrors on the ceiling. We’re the laughing stock of the peloton.”
And it isn’t just injuries and illnesses that have hobbled the team. Politics got in the way, too. The team had planned to warm up for the Tour de France by competing in the Vuelta a Espana in late April. Because of the threat of terrorism in the area, the team withdrew to race the CoreStates in Pennsylvania.
“The team lost a little focus because we turned our attention to this race,” Kiefel said. Despite it all, he said, “morale for the Tour is getting high.”
Morale is improving because the team has seen some results. Shapiro’s third place at CoreStates and Phinney’s wins at Baja and the Tour of Denver have shown them they’re on the right track.
Kiefel is realistic about his possibilities in the Tour. “I’m not a stage racer,” he said. “I’m great for one day. I’ll never win the Tour de France — I’ve accepted that. So my goals are to win a stage in the Tour and do well at the Coors and the worlds. The worlds is a big focus for me. I don’t know if I’ll be o nthe team. I’m trying not to worry about that and just to race through the season and do well.”
As for Bob Roll’s goals for the Tour de France?

Buffalo scored first, that often means a long night of poor behaviour by adults in my house, possibly yours too. Zack Kassian had a major impact on the game early, as the frustrated veterans came through in a big way in a big game. Milan Lucic scored the fifth and sixth goals, sparking a prolonged period of applause and merriment. It was a pleasing night for everyone, and gives the club some momentum heading into what is a very important week ahead.
The Athletic Edmonton is going to bring it all season long. Proud to be part of a lineup that is ready to cover the coming year.

OILERS AFTER 46
- Oilers in 2015: 18-23-5, 41 points; goal differential -24
- Oilers in 2016: 24-15-7, 55 points; goal differential +6
- Oilers in 2017: 19-23-3, 41 points; goal differential -26
- Oilers in 2018: 22-21-3, 47 points; goal differential -7
That’s a fabulous recovery in goal differential, and in a season that grows more bizarre by the day, your Edmonton Oilers are in a playoff spot this morning. Oh sure, Minnesota has played one fewer game, plus Anaheim and Vancouver are right there. That said, the team has clawed its way back into the race and it’s mid-January.
OILERS IN JANUARY
- Oilers in January 2016: 3-2-2, eight points; goal differential -2
- Oilers in January 2017: 4-3-0, eight points; goal differential -2
- Oilers in January 2018: 3-4-0, six points; goal differential -10
- Oilers in January 2019: 4-3-0, eight points; goal differential 0
The first half of January is over, marked by inconsistency and opportunities missed. Edmonton has eight points, the goal differential is zero and as mentioned the playoffs are in view.
WHAT TO EXPECT IN JANUARY
- On the road to: Arizona, Los Angeles, Anaheim, San Jose (Expected 2-2-0) (Actual 2-2-0)
- At home to: Florida, Arizona, Buffalo (Expected 1-1-1) (Actual 2-1-0)
- On the road to: Vancouver (Expected 0-1-0) (Actual 0-0-0)
- At home to: Calgary, Carolina, Detroit (Expected 1-1-1) (Actual 0-0-0)
- Overall expected result: 4-5-2, 10 points in 11 games
- Current results: 4-3-0, eight points in seven games
The Oilers are close to reaching my expectations for the month, with four games to go. As we have seen many times this season, the way forward is clear for this team. Can they break on through to the other side?
DEFENSE, LAST NIGHT
- Manning-Benning went 7-8 in 12:22, 4-4 shots, 1-0 goals and 0-1 HDSC. The shot total is way too high (40 SA/60 based on last night) but the pairing did some good things. Manning was physical, Benning got pucks out for the most part. Were 1-6 in 5:42 against Larsson-Girgensons-Okposo, 0-3 shots.
- Jones-Larsson went 14-26 in 17:55, 9-17 shots, 2-0 goals (I know) and 2-2 HDSC. SA/60 was 87 (!!!! OH MY GOD) for the pair. Despite the numbers, I thought both men did some good things. Larsson was calm, physical and picked good times to pinch/jump into the play. Jones did some rookie things but also showed some calmness in trying situations. I think the game is beginning to slow down for him. Went 4-10 in 6:43 against Skinner-Eichel-Reinhart, 1-0 goals, and that trio and fanfreakingtastic. If you’re wondering about a solution, thy name is Klefbom. Jones is a rookie, people.
- Nurse-Russell were 7-21 in 15:01, 7-14 shots, 3-1 goals and 4-5 HDSC. These are all over the top numbers, way too much happening for anyone to be happy. They survived and Nurse picked up yet another point. Went 3-14 in 7:54 against Skinner-Eichel-Reinhart (also 1-0) on a night when both defensemen needed to have their heads on a swivel. The pairing’s SA/60 was 56 on the night (!!!) but they did play the most against the big line.
- Mikko Koskinen stopped 41 of 43 shots, .953. He looked fabulous after an uneven start.
- NaturalStatTrick and NHL.com.
FORWARDS, LAST NIGHT
- Spooner-Khaira-Puljujarvi were 6-6 in 7:52, 3-4 shots, no goals and 2-2 HDSC. I liked the line, but they need a driver. Were 6-2 in 4:43 against Dahlin-Bogosian. Khaira was passing well and had some looks, three shots on goal is a good number for him. Jesse had a terrific chance in the first period, but he also interrupted plays often and moved the puck well. He’s getting there, I hope he gets there here.
- Lucic-Nuge-Kassian were 9-15 in 12:07, 6-11 shots, 3-1 goals and 2-0 HDSC. Kickass line did terrific things all night. Very impressive. Went 5-11 in 7:06 against Beaulieu-Scandella. Lucic turned back the clock, I’ll give him credit for turning his game around. Hitchcock saw it a few games ago, moving the big man up the depth chart. It has paid off in a big way. Now, history suggests Lucic won’t sustain this level so enjoy it. Lucic was always one of my favourite players, so last night was a real treat. Kassian was even better, he is a bull in a china shop early and it contributed to Edmonton winning the game. Nuge was Nuge, the big story came from the wingers.
- Draisaitl-McDavid-Chiasson went 10-21 in 15:27, 9-13 shots, 1-1 goals and 1-4 HDSC. Looked disjointed at times but there’s so much quality. Went 6-12 in 10:43 against McCabe-Ristolainen. McDavid and Draisaitl didn’t need to score on this night, but did anyway. The McDavid goal was memorable only because he added comedy to his arsenal. My goodness he is an amazing hockey player. Anticipation off the charts, speed that still shocks the eye and hands so fast goalies break ankles routinely. .
- Rieder-Brodziak-Rattie were 4-11 in 7:52, 3-5 shots, 2-0 goals and 2-2 HDSC. Rattie wasn’t in on any of this, he seems to have missed all the juicy goodness on all the lines (Kassian was the man). Great to see Rieder display those skills we know he possesses, I thought Brodziak had a fine game as well.
- On Lucic: “For me it’s five games in a row he’s been like this. He’s really playing well. He looks like the player who was around two or three years ago.”
I expect we’ll see that trade here in the next couple of days (St. Louis?) but if Lucic could score 10 goals between now and the end of the season it would be a gigantic help. The nature of these hot streaks is they end, but three goals in four games stands out in a big way for the gigantic winger. I’m happy for him, hope it continues for weeks.
Some changes for the forwards, nice step forward for Lucic, Kassian and Rieder. Puljujarvi has quietly pulled up his socks as well, I thought he could have scored or grabbed an assist last night. He’s in the play enough to gather points now.

Greece vs China is a plate with a clear concept: take the plates needlessly broken during any traditional Greek wedding celebration. salvage them, and glue them back together to sell them as high minded design objects. But don't worry about getting broken china chips in your hummus because the plates are actually molded to look the part.
Implications - This pre-broken ceramic plates reflect a new sort of luxury that wishes to put understatement at the forefront, rather than perfection and luxury. A related trend that supports a similar idea is pre-chipped nail manicures. This trend appeals to the rich consumer that wishes to try something new and bring themselves back to earth.

This Month in the GliderVet Newsletter
Greetings Glider Groupies, Glider Newbies and Glider Wanna-bes!
Welcome to the June edition of the GliderVet News. Have you ever had the experience of one (or more) of your clever little pals pulling off a jail break? What’s the second thing you want to do (after you close all toilet lids)? Read on because odds are in your favor that you will re-unite with your little one. We also want to share with you the news of our expanding color program and for those of you into breeding the more exotic colors, here’s a chance to get on our waiting list for some incredibly special anticipated future births!
We’ll wrap up this month with a look at eye infections. Our big-eyed fuzzbutts can get eye irritations rather easily. We will share with you our experience as to what may increase this likelihood as well as some preliminary steps you can take for a quick home remedy.
We have been getting requests to offer more pay options in Arnold’s little shop. Soooo, we’ve listened to your needs and effective immediately, we are now proud to say that we’ve now added Discover Card and American Express to our list of choices. Now when you go to Arnold’s store, the drop down list for payment choices will be Discover, MasterCard, Visa, and American Express. We also continue to offer Check or Money Order payment options.
While we're on the subject of payment types, if you choose check payment, please understand that product will not be shipped until we actually receive your check and the check has cleared our bank. Money order payments ship same day we receive the money order. If you need your stuff fast, then use a debit or credit card. You don’t need to tell the computer if it’s debit or credit because Arnold treats them all the same … less hassle that way, right?
Before we glide in, we would like to ask the community outside of the United States if you have any good recommendations for sugar glider breeders. You see, we often get asked by folks primarily from Canada, Europe and South Africa if we know anybody we can recommend. Since we don’t export our own sugar gliders, we have no real opportunity to meet other breeders around the globe. I know you’re out there, so please let us know how to contact you. We will be happy to send inquiries your way; that is as long as you promise to provide excellent customer service and proper education on the care of sugar gliders.
Please remember that this newsletter is intended to express the wishes of the whole sugar glider community. Every article published in this newsletter is a result of someone just like you taking the time to write us with thoughts, ideas, stories and questions. Send your comments to us here.
If you ever want to find earlier issues of GliderVet News, you can access our archives here. Fun pics of sugar gliders sent in by our customers are found here. If you are looking for sugar glider tested and approved products, check out our ever expanding store here.
Are you new to sugar gliders or just in the early stages of trying to decide if one is right for you? Questions you can ask yourself to help make this very important and long term decision are here. A very confusing area for those considering glider ownership (and for some current owners too!) is diet. See what our vet has to say here. And if you decide that a sugar glider (or two!) would become future members of your household, then you might want to check out Arnold's great deals on starter kits, with or without cages.
My Glider Escaped! What Can I Do? ===========================
I have a problem and was hoping that you could give me some advice. I went to go feed my gliders tonight and realized that one of them is missing. I believe my male escaped last night and is in the house somewhere. Do you have any suggestions on how I can get him to come back to the cage? Do they usually come back or do they keep running? Please let me know as soon as possible.
I didn’t hear back from you to find out if your little guy has come home yet. We get letters like this almost weekly and what me can tell ya is that gliders usually return to the scene of the crime. I’ve pulled off several jail breaks meself, but I always just go crawl in bed with Lisa. Not that I can say the same thing for me gal pal Naomi. She’s been discovered in all parts of the house, and last time (EEEKS!) she was in the bathroom. Glad to report she was safe from that close call, but that leads me to me first bit of advice. When ya find one of us missin', close all toilet lids immediately. It’s not the way ya wanna find us, nor the way we wanna be found!
Now me and my pals have made our escapes the old fashioned way. Lisa forgot to close the door, so we took that as permission to roam the home. Lots of peeples make this mistake from time to time, but if we got out and the doors were closed, ya best find out how we did it. Cuz, if we did it once, we’re gonna keep on doin’ it. Ya might have a problem with cage security. Make sure the bars are only ? inch apart and that pull out grills are not slightly pulled out. If you have flaps covering the grills, make sure they are secure (magnets can help with this issue).
If ya make this discovery at night, you have a good chance of tracking us down at a reasonable time and getting a good night’s sleep. If ya make this discovery in the morning, I will admit you will have a long day ahead, cuz ya see, we’re gonna find a little cozy space to hunker down and sleep during the day. So yer best chances of finding us again will be later, when the sun goes down.
Now please allow me to give ya a list of things to do in the meantime, but first let me assure you that most of these situations turn out well and we hope that holds true for you too.
OK, number one … like already said, close all toilet lids.
Next, take out a nest box or sleeping pouch (a smelly one) from the habitat and put it outside the cage with a big piece of juicy apple in it. Most of us will return to our home, cuz we are terry-torial, which means we like to come home.
Do not do any laundry, unless yer sure we haven’t found a place in the laundry basket to snooze.
Check closets and clothes and other stuff. Fer example, check pockets in coats, empty pocketbooks and inside shoes. We can get pretty creative about a place to sleep and 'cuz yer closet smells like you, it may be where many of me pals choose to hunker down.
OK, so now let’s say you’ve gone through a whole day without success. With night coming, you know what happens next? We wake up which means we’ll be hunting around fer something to eat or drink. BUT, if you have too much light on in the house, we’re gonna stay hiding. So keep the lights very low, or better yet, keep the lights off. Sit quietly in each room for 10-15 minutes. Start in the room where we’re supposed to live. If ya hear a sound, use a flashlight to look around for the escapee.
Yer best chances of finding us are in the first 24 hours. But even if you have no luck that first night, keep the pouch outside of the cage for several days. We’ve heard many reports of miracle returns when all hope was lost, so don’t give up too fast. In 9 out of 10 cases we hear about, a happy ending is often reported.
Now, what do you do if ya glider escapes outside of the house? Again, most of us will return to the scene of the crime. But if outside, ya have a much larger area to deal with, so put out several sleeping pouches or nest boxes with apple. Put them on tables or chairs or whatever ya have that you can use to put the stuff off the ground (otherwise ya might get a pouchful of bugs). Some people have even put the cage outside with the companion glider to help woo the wayward one back home.
Again, don’t give up too soon. Reports we get are at least 5 out of 10 will return home from the great outdoors.
Mindy, I hope yer baby has come home by now, but if not, thanks fer giving me the chance to talk about some really important stuff. It’s not like we’re running away. We just get curious sometimes and want to see what’s happenin' around us.
SunCoast Expands Color Program
=========================== By Lisa
As you know, SunCoast Sugar Gliders has been breeding sugar babies for many, many years and for a long time, I’ve resisted the temptation to get into breeding color sugar gliders. My main reason is because I think the way Mother Nature painted them originally is pretty darn cute. Let’s face it, gray with black racing stripes, a white belly and pink nose is quite irresistible for most of us.
I started our color breeding program with one white faced male. We’ve grown quite a bit since then. We now have seven colonies of color gliders. What I’m particularly excited about is that three of our females are related to the creamino line of gliders and we have a 100% het to creamino male from a completely different bloodline. We are hoping to have creamino babies soon and white face blondes are available every couple of months.
Many of our white face gliders are multi generational and because several of the generations are with me, quite a few have some relationship to the creamino line of sugar gliders.
If you are interested in getting on a waiting list for any of these rare and special breeds, just shoot me an email:
Sorry, no longer available.
I used to be a bit shy about discussing color in the past, but this whole realm of glider keeping is growing in popularity all the time. As it’s my commitment to keep up with trends in the glider community, I felt it only natural to get more involved in this area.
We do not practice any line breeding or inbreeding in order to try and force nature into producing certain color variations. All of our breeding is done on a selective basis. We’ve also made contact with other color breeders in the country to make cross referrals so that folks interested in venturing in this direction can have access to non-related color gliders to start their own breeding programs.
So drop me a line if you are interested and we can go from there!
How to Deal with Eye Infections
=========================== By Lisa
We often discuss health issues in this publication and the bottom line to most questions is “take your glider to a vet”. We are strong advocates of seeking appropriate medical attention when signs of illness or other medical conditions present. Today, we’re going to break this tradition a little bit and offer a home remedy suggestion for eye irritations.
It is not unusual, particularly with our babies to see mild eye irritations. If you know what colonies look like when they are sleeping, its hard to say where one animal starts and another leaves off. Colonies of sleeping gliders look like a bundle of fur, feet, tails and heads. They get quite cozy to say the least.
Because of this, gliders can get little scratches on their eyes (probably from another’s foot brushing the eye) which can create a situation where the eye does not open fully, and you may even see a bit of white discharge.
You have a good chance of clearing this up within the first 24 hours. If the condition persists, there is excessive discharge, or an obvious wound on or near the eye, please see a vet immediately (there I go again). This remedy should only be used in mild cases.
The remedy is simple. Go to the drugstore and buy some liquid tears. There are many brands and that doesn’t really matter. The brands may be called liquid tears, natural tears or something along that line. Do not use products like Visine. I tend to use sterile and preservative free products as that is what I use for myself. Put a couple of drops of the solution into the gliders eye 2-3 times that day. Follow-up with a warm compress for several minutes. In most cases, the eye will be fully open and clear the next day. If that is the case, then you’ve successfully treated with the first home remedy ever suggested in this publication.
If the eye is still irritated, well you already know what I’m going to say. And make that call to the vet sooner than later. Gliders can lose vision in their eyes if appropriate treatment is not started quickly. Veterinarians have access to a variety of ophthalmic ointments and will prescribe based upon the diagnosis.
If you choose to try the home remedy the first day, please be sure to wash your hands very well both before and after treatment. A white discharge may indicate some infection present, and you don’t want to spread that around to other pets or yourself.
'Til next time, in good health for you and your gliders, we sign off in appreciation of all of you who share great glider adventures with us!

Tech firms like Google, Amazon push power companies toward solar and wind, a blow to coal
SAN FRANCISCO — Every time you save a photo to the cloud, buy something on Amazon, open a Google doc or stream a movie, you’re probably pulling electricity from a wind turbine in Texas or a solar farm in Virginia.
In fact, your clicks and taps may have helped build them.
Since 2008, renewable energy has gone from 9% to 18% of the U.S. energy mix, according to the Business Council for Sustainable Energy. A big part of that shift stems from tech companies' rapid buildout of cloud storage centers and a move to burnish their public image by vowing they’ll run these centers on sources like wind and solar.
Rather than lose these deep-pocketed customers, the nation’s power companies are changing policies and crafting deals that meet increased demands for renewable energy, in some cases shifting away from traditional electricity supplies like coal and natural gas. Even in coal mining states like West Virginia.
“We have the ability to shape the market,” said Michael Terrell, head of Google Energy Policy. "If you build it, we will come."
Last year, the top four corporate users of renewable energy in the world were Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Apple, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance. Google announced this month that as of 2017, all its facilities and data centers were running on 100% renewable electricity.
A practice of insisting power companies offer wind- and solar-sourced power supplies is spreading to other sectors — Walmart, GM and Budweiser all have goals to run more of their global business off renewable energy.
This is bad news for the struggling coal industry. Coal producers have seen their share of U.S. power generation decrease since 2008, even as the Trump Administration has promised to roll back what it considers hostile environmental regulations.
The coal industry has said it now knows that at least the government is not going to discourage production, and it's only got to deal with the marketplace.
The problem is that a growing portion of the marketplace is demanding green energy.
"There’s no federal or state law out there today that says you must do this, but there are boards of directors that say 'We want to set a carbon footprint goal for our companies,'" said Appalachian Power President and COO Chris Beam.
In December, the Charleston, W.Va-based utility contracted with Bluff Point Wind Energy Center in Indiana to buy 120 megawatts of wind-generated electricity, green power it can now offer to companies that are making it a core requirement on where they'll site their businesses, Beam said.
Today Appalachian Power generates 61% of its electricity by burning coal and 5% from wind and solar. By 2031, Beam says he hopes to get that mix to 51% coal and 25% wind and solar.
There's also a trickle-down effect. Big tech companies are pushing their suppliers to go green. Apple, which said last month that 100% of the electricity it uses for its facilities and data centers comes from renewables, saysnearly two dozen of its suppliers — such as manufacturers of batteries, keyboards and lenses — have also made a commitment to 100% renewable energy.
"The smart ones are seeing it as a competitive advantage," said Lisa Jackson, Apple's vice president of environment, policy and social initiatives and former head of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under the Obama Administration.
"They know they have an edge in competing for Apple's business.”
Amazon, Microsoft in Virginia
The biggest energy companies are changing their policies to court big tech energy buyers, who can often promise 20-year contracts.
Three years ago, Amazon wanted to build a new data center in northern Virginia. Because of its commitment to 100% renewable energy, it required that center to be run on electricity generated by wind or solar.
Richmond, Va.-based Dominion Energy, the local utility, didn’t have any way for Amazon to source all its electricity from solar. So it created a special power purchase agreement that allowed the Seattle company to contract for 100% renewable electricity, something that wasn’t previously possible in Virginia.
“We thought about it, we understood their reasoning, we convinced ourselves that it was in our best interests to do it and we ended up signing,” said Greg Morgan, director of customer rates and regulations for Dominion.
Last month Microsoft announced it is contracting to buy electricity from a giant solar array in Virginia in what will be the largest ever corporate purchase of solar energy in the United States and will double the state's solar capacity.
Other buyers are following. When it goes online in 2019, the solar array in Spotsylvania county, southwest of Washington D.C, will produce 500 megawatts of electricity, with Microsoft buying 315 megawatts. Customers are already lined up for the megawatts it won’t be using, said Microsoft. The deal will bring Microsoft's total purchase of renewable energy globally up to 1.2 gigawatts.
A public shaming
The tech push towards renewable began in earnest in 2011, when Greenpeace released a report calling out data centers for being huge users of electricity created by non-renewable sources. It came at an opportune time. Going green fit tech's corporate ethos. The companies were also flush with cash, making it easier for them to make choices that at least in the beginning were more expensive.
“Over the last few years, the tech companies have knowingly and willingly paid a premium for green power and they’ve been willing to do so because it advanced their self-stated goals,” said Dominion’s Morgan.
Data centers that store racks of iCloud and Google Photos servers use just 1.8% of the United States’ overall energy, according to Arman Shehabi, author of a Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory 2016 report on data center energy usage. But demand to source these from green energy has changed the mix.
Close to 50% of corporate investment in offsite renewable energy in the United States has been from tech companies, the highest of all market segments, said John Hoekstra, vice president at Schneider Electric, a Paris-based energy management and automation company.
But other big corporate buyers of electricity have set similar goals. Walmart was one of the first Fortune 500 companies to make a commitment to going 100% renewable, in 2005, said Sam Kimmins at The Climate Group and head of RE100, which sets standards for companies making green energy commitments. Walmart recently said it gets 28% of its global electric needs from renewable energy and wants to hit 50% by 2025.
Last year Anheuser-Busch InBev, the Belgian beer maker that brews Budweiser, announced that it would be 100% powered by renewable energy by 2025. General Motors plans to get there by 2050.
It's become such a movement that last year, U.S. corporations bought more renewable power than utilities did, said Timothy Fox, vice president at ClearView Energy Partners, an energy consulting company.
Today, corporate America is happy to throw its weight around, said Bryn Baker, the World Wildlife Fund’s deputy director of renewable energy. “Companies are coming in and saying, ‘If you want us to be here, you have to give us access to clean energy.'” | <urn:uuid:cfec3d16-3001-496a-baee-5212346ca10e> | CC-MAIN-2019-26 | https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/news/2018/04/22/google-amazon-push-power-companies-solar-and-wind-blow-coal/438020002/ | 2019-06-26T05:43:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-26/segments/1560628000175.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20190626053719-20190626075719-00356.warc.gz | en | 0.957269 | 1,526 | [

Because pelvic floor muscles can be hard to identify, biofeedback is used to help train those muscles. Known to be a safe and effective method of increasing pelvic floor muscle strength, millions of women have had success in regaining bladder control.
There are several types of instruments that may be used when conducting biofeedback, and all are effective in measuring muscle activity. Some biofeedback tools have small exposed sensors that are placed inside the vagina and capture electrical activity. Others consist of an external “stick-on” type of sensor can be placed just outside the anal opening. And others have sensors contained within the device that detect contractions of the pelvic floor.
The most common error that some individuals make in performing pelvic floor muscle exercises is using their abdominal muscles instead of the pelvic floor muscles. Biofeedback provides a visual representation of muscle activity, which helps you learn how to stop using the wrong muscles and start using the correct ones. By “feeding back” the information, the patient knows immediately which muscles she is using.
The job of a biofeedback therapist is to coach you in the proper use of the pelvic muscles, just like a personal trainer. By following some simple instructions, you will see signals changing as you contract and relax different muscles in your pelvic floor. As a result, you will become more aware of these muscles and will be better able to identify and use them.
While biofeedback has long been used in medical offices, there are now products accessible for people to use in the comfort of their own home, making effective training easier and more comfortable than ever. Believe it or not, improvements may be seen is as few as three sessions.
This page is sponsored by The PeriCoach™ System. The PeriCoach™ System is a personalized device, web portal and smartphone app for pelvic floor muscle training. Designed for home use, it is the first system that includes a device, an app providing instruction and real-time feedback and a connection that enables patient management by clinicians remotely.

Baltimore/Washington International Airport handles more than 20 million passengers each year, for some of whom BWI is a stopover on a long trip. Others are headed to the D.C. region or Baltimore for events at the nearby Baltimore Convention Center or to see the attractions of one of Maryland's largest cities. Within two miles of the airport, travelers will find everything from all-suite hotels to budget-friendly options and those that welcome pets.
Four Points by Sheraton is located within the BWI airport facility, making it one of the more convenient options for those traveling through the airport. All guests can park for free at the hotel, and it has standard amenities that include a fitness center and outdoor pool. To accommodate those traveling in late at night, the hotel maintains 24-hour room service. Another nearby option is the Hampton Inn BWI Hotel, which is located less than two miles from the airport. This hotel distinguishes itself with its modern decor, including standard rooms with leather headboards and footboards and suites with spacious living areas.
Many of the hotels around the airport have suites to accommodate families or those intending to stay in the Baltimore area for an extended visit. For instance, the SpringHill Suites Baltimore BWI Airport, about a mile from the airport, offers suites with separate sleeping and living spaces. The AAA three-diamond hotel has layouts with a king bed or two queen beds, and each room has a sofa bed for additional sleeping space. Those planning an extended stay may prefer the Homewood Suites, which has a kitchen in each room to allow guests to fix their own meals. This AAA three-diamond hotel is less than two miles from the airport.
If your travel plans include your dog, you will need to choose one of the hotels near the airport that welcomes pets. The Residence Inn in Hanover and the Comfort Inn in Jessup both do.

Each morning a breakfast with hot waffles greets guests before they head to the airport or to the attractions they have come to see.
A few chain hotels near BWI cater to the needs of those traveling on a budget, with simple hotel rooms and modest amenities but with affordable rates. In Linthicum Heights, guests can stay at the Red Roof Inn, located about a mile from the airport and within 15 minutes of Baltimore Inner Harbor or the University of Maryland-Baltimore.
