Many of us appreciate the seasonal diversity we experience in this part of the country, where the natural world changes dramatically throughout the year.
Nothing stays the same for long – which can feel like a mixed blessing, of course. Soon after we’ve adjusted to a season it’s just about time to prepare for a new one.
Some seasons are easy to get attached to. Summer can be that way for those of you who don’t mind the heat, and/or for whom summer means vacation and downtime.
Whatever our feelings on the subject, there’s no denying that summer’s days are numbered. Labor Day is just two weeks away, after which some of us will shift gears.
Autumn doesn’t officially arrive for another month, and warm weather is likely for weeks to come. But for many people it’ll be a time for new projects, classes, etc.
If you’re someone who loves swimming in mountain lakes and basking in warm mountain breezes, it’s time to act now to enjoy some final seasonal opportunities.
And if you’re someone who loves to hike during the often gloriously beautiful fall foliage season, it’s time to consider reserving for September and October hikes.
Some fall hikes often fill well in advance, which can likewise be the case for our final two camping trips of the year (9/2-5 and 10/7-10). Hiking doesn’t get any better than it’s likely to be in the coming months. Will you be enjoying it with us?

Is the Madagascar franchise on life support?
Before I start the review of the sequel, let me go back and give a very quick, one paragraph review of the first Madagascar since I wasn’t doing this back in 2005. In short, I liked it a lot. Unlike a lot of critics I loved the angular stylistic character designs. The voice acting was very good and really fit the characters. The humor was great. Even the pop culture references, which I usually hate in animated features, really worked here. I think that had to do with the characters being out of place New Yorkers, rather than fairy tale creatures or fish, where it didn’t work nearly as well. And the story was pretty good too. The main issue was something you don’t hear too often in a review — it was a little too short. It needed about 5-10 more minutes after setting up the Alex-as-a-predator story line before immediately and abruptly starting the resolution. Overall, I think it is one of the most enjoyable and re-watchable of all of DreamWorks’ films. Too bad the sequel tosses most of these positive aspects out the window.
We pick up soon after the first movie ends as the crew says their good-byes and is off to New York in plane wreckage “fixed” by the penguins. They obviously don’t get far and crash land on the African continent. Alex discovers his long lost parents, Marty finds he may not be as unique as he always believed, Gloria gets a man, and Melman copes with his impending doom and the one thing he wants to do before he goes. Our side characters are here as well. The penguins try to find a new way home, Julien tries to get his new subjects to follow him, and even the old New York woman gets some screen time as she tries to lead lost tourists after their vehicles are commandeered by the penguins. And all that is fit into the 89 minute run time.
The first problem with the film may be obvious just from my description. There are too many story lines competing for a limited amount of film time. The first movie basically had one main story line and everything else was in service to that. The sequel tries to give every character their own plot. Because of this, none of the stories get any amount of depth. Every few minutes we cut to a different character to see what they’re up to, get a minimal amount of development consisting of mostly cliched plot, then we’re taking off to somewhere else to repeat the process all over. And worse, it turns out that the side characters get the best stories as theirs are more similar to the style of the first movie. The writers really did a disservice to the characters in trying to give everyone a minor plot point, rather than coming up with one plot they could work around together.
But let’s be serious for a second. You don’t come to a Madagascar movie for plot — you come for the laughs. Unfortunately that department comes up lacking too. Perhaps taking to heart the criticism from some about the first film that there was no moral or that the story was too superficial, here they go too far in the other direction. And it starts from the first scene where Alex is torn apart form his family as a baby. The whole tone of the film is a little more glum from that opening and it never really picks up much. the writers have tried to put some emotional punch into this outing but because of the hectic multi-story lined plot, serious issues are just hinted at and glossed over. Jokes are not nearly as fast and furious as they were in the first film, regulated for the most part to the penguins, Julien, and the old lady. Even the pop culture references have been cut back, which while not necessarily a bad thing is a bit of a letdown after all the other disappointing aspects of the film.
There are just a few new characters in the film. And the character designs and voices chosen for them are not nearly as interesting as the ones created for the first film. Yes, the designs fit into the world, but they are mainly cookie cutter copies rather than bold new originals. The exception here is Moto Moto, a male hippopotamus who has a hilarious look that not only fits the character but is different without breaking too far out of the mold. Vocals are in the same vein as the designs: serviceable. Alex’s father, Zuba, voiced by the late Bernie Mac, is pretty good but is lacking much of an emotional range necessitated by his story line. Sherri Shepherd as Alex’s mother is unmemorable. And Alec Balwin as Makunga is just a bad fit. Once again it is Moto Moto that shines in a relatively small role voiced by will.i.am.
The inevitable sequel to the sequel is undoubtably already in the works. But unless they can figure out what made the first film work the Madagascar franchise might become an endangered species.

EB2 Category Mentioned in My Green Card Application Process?
For PERM Labor Certification based Green Card case, at what stage of Green Card application do I need to mention whether my case is going to be filed in the EB2 category or the EB3 category?
At the PERM Labor Certification stage, the requirements for the job offered and the education and/or experience required for the job determine whether the case will fit within the EB2 or EB3 category. This is based on the minimum qualifications listed for the position. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) determines the EB2 or EB3 at the I-140 stage, when issuing the I-140 approval notice.
Form I-140 has checkboxes for the petitioning employer to request the appropriate category. However, this selection is not simply based on one's preference. The selection is dictated by the job requirements, in terms of education and experience, according to the minimum requirements for the position set forth in the PERM Labor Certification. Thus, if the minimum requirements for the job set out in the Labor Certification fall within EB3, the I-140 must be filed in the EB3 category.
Any changes in the position must be made in a new Labor Certification filing. If one is promoted and wishes to use the new position as the basis for the Green Card case, a new Labor Certification filing is needed; it is not possible to make such changes at the I-140 stage.

Looking at the absurd trade packages that the Magic turned down from Billy 'I don't keep first rounders' King, listed in the article below and I am thinking. These guys could have got the rebuild we ended up with. Jesus, what would they do to wind back the clock.
It's amazing to me that Billy King kept his job after trading a top 3 protected pick for Gerald freakin' Wallace.
Nets were not any less crazy with hindsight.
Lol, yeah okay. Billy King himself admitted that Pierce/Garnett had 2-3 years max. Why even give up more than a pick max? Not to mention swap with unprotected/worst pick?
"It's the same way people think of (Kings owner) Vivek (Ranadive) and (Kings GM) Vlade (Divac), like '[dang], they're running out of assets. We can't strip them anymore.' Everyone knew this was Billy's weakness. ...He created this situation where his only way out was to chase stars and hit a grand slam by swinging for the fences. He thought he got step 1 with Deron (Williams). And he was like, 'I'm so close to getting step 2, I'm going to keep chasing these stars and I have owners that will pay.' It created this disaster."
I do agree, maybe we're harsh on Billy King, but no one, not even LeBron at age 35 or 37, would I give up 3 unprotected picks.
The trade made some semblance of sense as they already had DWill (who was not long before considered the #2 PG behind CP3), a perennial all-star in Joe Johnson, and an all-star center in Lopez.
They didn’t bring in Pierce and KG to carry a team, they brought them in to put them into contention.
And I think had they been healthy, they could have been good. I don’t fault the vision, even if Ainge fleeced him knowing he could. I think the biggest mistake was letting Kidd run that group.
Williams/Johnson/Pierce/Garnett/Lopez is a great starting five, even with KG running on fumes and Pierce clearly past his prime. The bench had guys like Terry, Livingston, Kirilenko, Teletovic, and Blatche, not exactly the thinnest bench I’ve seen.
We all know how it worked out, but at the time, it wasn’t a terrible idea for a franchise with a new arena in a new city. They made headlines (cover of SI NBA preview), they went for it. I remember being here when it went down and it being bittersweet for us, knowing PP/KG would get one final crack at a championship while also hopefully kickstarting our rebuild. NOBODY envisioned we would eventually get a #3, #1, and Kyrie Irving out of it.
Thank goodness Dwight is such a bonehead and backed out of it otherwise we wouldn’t have gotten those picks. The Gerald Wallace deal needed better draft protection in hindsight, but keep in mind Wallace was just previously traded a year before by Charlotte for TWO firsts!
They couldn’t have protected them all and still given the Celtics all the picks. You can only have two future picks protected at a time, so that means the earliest the protections could have started would have been 2017 (because if you protext 2014 or 2016, that’s going to push back the other picks and require protections in the form of 2nd round conversions). As the 2017 and 2018 picks were the ones with the most value (Nets had a greater chance of going south by that time), protection would have been a harder sell.
It was still a terrible trade, and I’m not convinced King even thought about why your alternative wouldn’t work, but it wouldn’t have worked.
The trade made sense at the time, but a lot of people were 50/50 on it. I was upset as a Celtics fan, but 3 unprotected picks was crazy to me.
Hindsight is hindsight, but their 2 of their big 3 had injury concerns.
Lopez/D-Will weren't durable, and D-Will wilted under pressure/adversity. I think he wanted Dwight here, so he could step up as the alpha, and D-Will could be the complimentary 2nd scorer.
yep, to even think he made such offers and even got them turned down. that's bad, like really bad. at least he taught the whole league a lesson about pick protection. I doubt we ll ever see unprotected picks again, at least not the way the nets did it.

we all know how it worked out, but at the time, it wasn’t a terrible idea for a franchise with a new arena in a new city. they made headlines (cover of si nba preview), they went for it. i remember being here when it went down and it being bittersweet for us, knowing pp/kg would get one final crack at a championship while also hopefully kickstarting our rebuild. nobody envisioned we would eventually get a #3, #1, and kyrie irving out of it.
thank goodness dwight is such a bonehead and backed out of it otherwise we wouldn’t have gotten those picks. the gerald wallace deal needed better draft protection in hindsight, but keep in mind wallace was just previously traded a year before by charlotte for two firsts!
they couldn’t have protected them all and still given the celtics all the picks. you can only have two future picks protected at a time, so that means the earliest the protections could have started would have been 2017 (because if you protext 2014 or 2016, that’s going to push back the other picks and require protections in the form of 2nd round conversions). as the 2017 and 2018 picks were the ones with the most value (nets had a greater chance of going south by that time), protection would have been a harder sell.
it was still a terrible trade, and i’m not convinced king even thought about why your alternative wouldn’t work, but it wouldn’t have worked.
the trade made sense at the time, but a lot of people were 50/50 on it. i was upset as a celtics fan, but 3 unprotected picks was crazy to me.
hindsight is hindsight, but their 2 of their big 3 had injury concerns.
lopez/d-will weren't durable, and d-will wilted under pressure/adversity. i think he wanted dwight here, so he could step up as the alpha, and d-will could be the complimentary 2nd scorer.
yep, to even think he made such offers and even got them turned down. that's bad, like really bad. at least he taught the whole league a lesson about pick protection. i doubt we ll ever see unprotected picks again, at least not the way the nets did it.

For most entrepreneurs having your seller account on Amazon.com suspended or banned can be a big blow to your business and a cause of stress and anxiety.
The Amazon marketplace seeks to maintain its good reputation by making sure that everyone has a great buying experience.
Amazon.com ensures this by enforcing certain policies. If you operate outside those set marketplace rules, you will receive one of those dreaded emails. Thankfully, Amazon allows their sellers another chance through the appeal process.
Before you appeal, figure out why Amazon suspended you in the first place. Normally this can be found in the email they sent you at the time when your selling privileges were removed.
We all know Amazon’s technical jargon can be confusing, so it is important that to understand where exactly you went wrong.
If the email does not state the suspension reason clearly enough, you may want to check your ‘Seller Performance Metrics’, inventory, listings and take another look at their Seller Policies. There is a good chance the suspension was caused because you were in violation with some of those rules.
You will have no other choice than to take responsibility for whatever may have gone wrong. In order to get your appeal accepted, Amazon wants to ensure that you will take all the necessary steps so that this violation does not happen again. This has to be specific and you must be able to demonstrate the changes you will make in your business to ensure this will not happen again future.
Now you can formulate a Plan of Action (POA). This is a specific document that Amazon requires from every seller, once an appeal is being made. It is arguably the most important part of the process.
Introductory Paragraph: State your Seller name, give a succinct description of your business and outline why you were suspended.
Second Paragraph: Describe the issues that led to the suspension. Outline the process that you used to determine the problem(s), including any data or figures gathered from research. Explain the reason(s) as to why the issue occurred and make it clear to Amazon that you are taking responsibility for what happened.
Third Paragraph: State actions you have taken to resolve the issue since the time of suspension. Here, it can be useful to include bullet points to ensure that you are specific. Explain how things have changed within the structure and policies of your business to ensure that the violation never happens again.
In your conclusion, you will want to reiterate the steps you’ve taken, and clearly, state that you wish for the suspension to be lifted.
Keep the POA brief and to the point, as the Performance Team has limited time in which to review and decide. Therefore, you want to make sure that the most important details are distinct.
Now that your POA is prepared, you can formally request an appeal. In Seller Central, you do this by selecting “Performance Notifications” from the “Performance tab. next, find the notice of suspension that you If received and click the appeal button. You can then upload your plan of action, submit your appeal and await an If your appeal is rejected, you will be able to resubmit but you will likely have to make changes to your POA. If accepted, do remember the points you stated in your POA, and ensure that your business has indeed made the appropriate changes to preclude a recurrence of the issue.

Well written song (lyrics-chords) and you have got a very good voice and vocal style (really good vox delivery). The instrumentals are decent, but with a proper backing band and musical arrangement, this is a top song. It just has that feel that a good song should.
like the tone of your voice on this one, you got a bit of a peacefulness to it. once again id like to see the lyrics. i could see myself listening to you play at the coffee shop i often go to. it's got that sort of feel to it.
to fix though for sure, and it's such a trivial thing it really doesn't matter!
:) Good job here on this song. Vocals work well here also.
Love the message. Love the Vox. Love the playing. Love the Mix. Love it!
I really like this one--again, I agree with Sleepy Hollow Boys that the backing instrumentals could be stronger...but I like this tune as much as anything of yours I've listened to.
and worked well. I will be listening to more of your stuff.
Where it all begins. Great message!
Thank you ZOI for showing the way to this wonderul song!

Nearly thirty years ago I decided to join the Nurses’ Health Study and complete a 30-minute questionnaire about my habits and life style every two years. In the beginning, I colored in the little circles in black pencil on a computerized answer sheet and mailed it back to them, but now I do it online. They have kept up with me through my many moves so I haven’t been lost in the shuffle. I am in the second cohort of thousands of nurses called NHS2. They now have a third group of younger nurses born on or after January 1, 1965. If you are a RN, LPN, or nursing student born then and would like to participate, please do your part to continue this wonderful ground breaking research and sign up at www.nhs3.org . They are especially recruiting male nurses. They have also recruited and followed the children of NHS2 nurses to see the maternal influence on their children as they age. They like to recruit nurses because we are reliable and honest in reporting our life style. All our years of charting about our patients is definitely a benefit to this research!
Middle-aged and older women who are more physically active have significantly lower rates of coronary heart disease (CHD). Women who walked briskly for at least 2.5 hours per week saw a 35% lower risk of developing CHD.
Walkers have lower rates of heart disease.
Two-thirds of women in their sixties suffer from hearing loss. Among 55,850 women in a subgroup, using NSAID (Ibuprofen, Motrin, Aleve are common over the counter names) for over 6 years was associated with a 10% increased risk of hearing loss. Use of acetaminophen (Tylenol is a common brand name) for over 6 years showed a 9% increased risk of hearing loss. There was a 7% higher risk of hearing loss in women who used either of these more than two days per week. However, duration of use of aspirin was not associated with hearing loss. They are doing more research in this area.
It is important to maintain physical function as we age. They compared those with the healthiest diets with less healthy diets and found the group with better diets were 13% less likely to develop physical impairment. Higher intake of fruits and vegetables, and lower intake of sugar-sweetened beverages, trans-fats, and sodium were associated significantly with less physical impairment as they aged. The strongest positive relations were found with increased intake of oranges, orange juice, apples, pears, romaine or leaf lettuce, and walnuts.
GF diets have increased in popularity due to concerns about celiac disease and gluten allergies. However, little research has been done to explore how GF diets impact people without celiac disease. NHS found that eating foods high in gluten from whole grains can be beneficial to health. Men and women with the highest levels of gluten intake had 20% lower risk of developing diabetes, and 15% less risk of developing coronary heart disease. Gluten intake did not lead to weight gain in people under age 65.
They examined which specific foods and eating patterns led to less weight gain and more weight gain as we age.
These foods were associated with less weight gain: tofu, soy, plain or artificially sweetened yogurt, seafood, fruit (especially blueberries, prunes, apples, pears strawberries, grapefruit, and avocados). Chicken without skin, replacing 1 serving daily of sugar-sweetened beverage with coffee or water, vegetables (especially cauliflower, summer squash, string beans, broccoli, and green leafy vegetables), replacing 1 serving daily of fruit juice with coffee or water, eating nuts (especially peanut butter, peanuts, and walnuts).
Fruits and veggies have wonderful health benefits.
These foods were associated with more weight gain: corn, processed meats, peas, chicken with skin, sugar-sweetened beverages, baked, boiled, or mashed potatoes, fruit juice, regular full-fat cheese.
The American Journal of Public Health published a special edition in September 2016 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Nurse’s Health Study which is still available.
I hope you will incorporate these findings into your own lifestyle and instruct your patients so everyone can be healthier!

An insurance company has violated the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing if it did not act fairly and honestly toward its policyholder in response to a claim.
In many cases, policyholders believe they have a bad faith claim against their insurer if a claim is denied; however, this is a common misconception. If a claim is believed to have been wrongfully denied, a breach of contract case should be alleged and proven first.
Your insurance dispute attorney, while pursuing your claim, will determine whether a viable claim for bad faith exists. If a viable claim exists, your insurance dispute attorney will take the procedural steps necessary to assist you in your future bad faith claim, if after being given an opportunity to do what is right, your insurer refuses to resolve your claim in your favor.
In other cases, bad faith claims are handled by our personal injury attorneys, not the attorneys in our insurance dispute department. It is important to contact our office to determine which type of claim best fits your situation.
Below are instances in which you might consider filing a bad faith claim or unfair claims handling case.
Disability Insurance Unfortunately, many insurance companies place profits over people, especially in times when you are most vulnerable, such as if you become disabled. Our attorneys have extensive experience working with people facing disability who have been denied or lowballed by their insurance companies.
We have succeeded in recovering the disability compensation to which our clients were entitled.
Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) Claims If your life or disability insurance is offered through your employer, it will most likely fall under ERISA. However, if your life or disability insurance is through your employer, but you work for federal, state, county, municipal, or a school board, it will not be under ERISA. If you have been denied insurance benefits through your employer, it is very important that you contact our attorneys as soon as possible, as ERISA claims often have very short time periods in which to challenge the insurance company’s denial of your claim.
If you do not challenge their decision, it becomes final, and the information that you present to the Court to challenge their decision could be limited to the documents in the possession of the insurance company because, unlike other claims, you are not entitled to a jury trial.
Our attorneys have extensive experience working with insureds who have been denied or lowballed by their employer regarding their life and accidental death and dismemberment claims. We have succeeded in recovering insurance benefits to which our clients were entitled under ERISA. Our firm has the resources to hire experts to review your claim and to provide opinions to your ERISA insurer so that you can get the full and fair review of your claim that you deserve.
Personal Injury Protection Personal injury protection, or PIP, is a type of insurance coverage that covers some medical expenses, lost wages, and more, after an accident, regardless of fault. PIP coverage is mandatory for vehicle owners in certain states, with the minimum amount of PIP coverage required varying by state law.
In some states, PIP program benefits are only available for those who receive medical treatment within two weeks of their accident, so it is essential for car accident victims to visit their doctor immediately in order to avoid ineligibility.
However, despite following PIP benefit procedure, some car accident victims still face great difficulties recovering the full PIP benefits to which they are entitled. A car accident attorney can help victims, who have had their PIP claims improperly reduced by their insurance company, take legal action through a PIP lawsuit. Your attorney will review your PIP benefits and determine the best way to demand full payment from the insurance companies.

Business setup in UAE is no different from setting up a business in other regions. Although there are some differences, the entire process follows similar routine. You have to contact the right authorities that will issue you license and understand the operation rules for your type of business. In fact, UAE’s government has simplified the entire process to make it easier for new business entities. The following are some helpful information you should know when setting up a business in UAE.
If you are setting up your business on the mainland, you will enjoy the following benefits.
Before you do any other thing, you should get in touch with the DED (department of Economic Development). They are responsible to issuing out approval and registering your business with a name. You can contact them through their e-service or by visiting them in person in their office. They will give you the initial approval before you can seek for other additional approvals from the right agencies. The DED have their respective offices in the emirates of Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Sharjah, Dubai, and Abu Dhabi. You should visit the DED at the emirate where you want to set up the business.

The business’s legal form will also impact on the set up cost. If it’s a branch of a company, you may skip some registration processes. But if you are starting up a new company, you have to carry out full registration in all aspects.
Capital A PrJSC Company is required to have a startup capital of about AED 5 million while a PJSC company should have no less than AED 30 million.

James Scott Bullard is not new to the country/Americana music scene. Having shared the stage with David Allan Coe, Butch Walker, Dex Romweber and The Steel Woods, Bullard will release Full Tilt Boogie on April 27th, which marks his 9th release and 6th LP release. Bullard is a man with many stories to tell and he tells those stories with truth and passion.
Following 2016’s EP, Box of Letters, Full Tilt Boogie is described by Bullard as “ A deliberate step down from the ‘poor me’ stuff. The lovelorn songwriter gave way to the brooding demon, who owns his faults. Musically, it’s more rock and roll, but still country. Both of those genres stem from the blues and that’s all it ever is really, from me.” Still in place are the clever one-liners that Bullard’s fans seem to appreciate, but Full Tilt Boogie is an edgier, dirtier, intoxicating ride that takes no prisoners.
Several years ago, Bullard survived an addiction and has been clean ever since. “My worst fear with becoming sober was that I wouldn’t be creative anymore,” he confesses. “Like the substances enhanced my creativity when in reality and retrospect, they stifled it.” Bullard declared himself substance-free, but it took him longer to accept responsibility for the rest of his life’s decision. That process led to fan-favorite lovelorn songs from his previous albums. Full Tilt Boogie jumps forward to where Bullard is now, owning his demons and bad choices.
