en | N/A | N/A | Newton Aycliffe business park 'could have impact' on region's railway heritage
Planning permission has been granted for a business park near Newton Aycliffe
CONCERNS have been raised about part of the North-East's railway heritage during a debate about whether to give planning permission for a business park in County Durham.
approved the plans for a 55-hectare business site near Newton Aycliffe on Tuesday.
The development by Forrest Park (Newton Aycliffe) Ltd will see the creation of 1.75 million sq fta 60-bed hotel, pub, roadside restaurant and retail units next to the A1.
Although councillors voted with planning officers’ recommendations, by a nine to four majority, to approve the scheme, several members raised concerns.
“You have got hundreds and hundreds of people working here and I’m not convinced that there’s sufficient open space there, considering you’re taking away good agricultural land and replacing it with such a high density of buildings.”
“I don’t see how it can possibly be contributing to the enhancement of the natural environment.”
The Campaign to Protect Rural England also raised concerns about the impact on a section of heritage railway near the site – a site recognised in the emerging County Durham Plan.
A charity linked to the site – Friends of the Stockton and Darlington Railway (FSDR) – added a proposed walking and cycling heritage trail through the site was “inadequate”.
Planning officers stressed the plans were at the “outline” stage and the council were taking a “precautionary approach” going forward.
When completed, the development, which could create up to 3,200 jobs,is expected to boosts over the next 20 years.
The plans are a joint venture by the council and the Forrest family, suFollowing debate, the development was secured with a majority vote from the planning committee with nine councillors backing the scheme and four voting against.
d he was “delighted” at the planning decision.
“This is not just about investing in today;, and future generations of residents can access exciting opportunities and enjoy rewarding careers near to where they live.”
Barberry developments director, Jonathan Robinson, added the approval was “major news for the North East.”
“Richardson Barberry, wo, has a visionn w,” he said.
“We now have a prominent motorway- connected, serviced and consented site ready for development, and East’s premier business parks.”
Last year, planning permission was granted to improve access to the site with major highways, signalisation, drainage and power upgrades completed. |

en | N/A | N/A | Very very sad... 21st got me in the hobby and they will be sorely missed...
I've read on a couple message boards, and heard through a couple people, that 21st Century may have been bought by another company, so the product line may not be dead. No idea about the truth of the matter, but it's a reason to hold out hope that we'll see the line continued, even if it is simply repaints of old models. |
en | N/A | N/A | I asked a friend at work if she would like to go ride with me and a couple of friends in spring, she said yes. Mom invited herself....
She IS Narcissistic. Now she is putting a guilt trip on me. She does NOT understand that I need time with MY friends, and I then reminded her of when I was younger how she would say "Me and your sister are going to lunch" I would always say "I want to go too!" She would then reply "YOU'RE NOT INVITED!" (that hurt like h***). So, I asked a friend at work last night "In the Spring when the weather is good wuld you like to go on a ride with us?" She said "YES!" Made the big mistake of telling my 79 year old mom who IS very active. She has now acting offended cause she horns in on everything I do. I told her we clean firt then we ride. She said then she will not go cause she doesn't want to clean stalls. I said that's all part of it. Now she is acting all hurt. I don't know what to do here. I will not ride with more than 4 people at time. There is already 4 going. Don't know what to do.
THank you. Yes, she does get out of the house, yes, she drives, she has friends, but gets very offended when they have family obligations and commitments. She resents anyone with kids cause they "take away" HER time with that friend....She IS narcissictic. So then here comes the "Woe is me guilt trip". She will stew on it for days. Last time it was "I will just quit my church then cause so and so didn't show up and they said thay would....etc" I said "Ooooooh, You'll show them!" and then I added..."WHO CARES?" followed by " Theres a million churches in this town, go join one!"
You don't need to debate or justify yourself to your mom. You have every right to see people on your own. Tell her what you are going to do. If she starts in or wants to go - be gentle, but say "no, this is just for us this time" - do not bring up anything form the past - no tit for tat. As an adult you have every right to make your own decisions. So do so. As an adult you do not need to get into a debate with your mom - so don't. She will try to pull guilt on you - it has worked in the past apparently. How she feels is your mom's issue - not yours.
Devil's advocate. I hope you do take Mom out sometimes and she is not stuck sitting at home alone watching you live while she is just existing. Define 'mom is very active'. Does she go on outings?
It's difficult to let go of the guilt you get for wanting some independence, but it's important that you do so for both of your sakes. If you feel trapped and unhappy how are you going to have a relationship with your Mom and not feel resentment towards her? If she wants to feel angry at you for enjoying time with others that's her business, but try not to buy into it for yourself. It's hard I know but you're worth it.
My mother asked me where I went on my date, when I told her the name of the nice restaurant, she had a mean fit and said she would enjoy going there!!
Next time she asks, I'll tell her I went for coffee.
What about all the times she and dad went out to dinner and left us with a can of spaghetti O's and the Brady Bunch?
Of course you don't need to bring your mother along - and you don't need to feel an ounce of guilt over it. Filling your mothers every minute with entertainment is NOT your job! Give in now and soon you won't be able to go to the bathroom alone. You are entitled to your own time, with your own friends - your own life! Mom will get over it.
Good answer, Pam!! 3884:Go out with friends and have a good time!!! then tell your Mom how wonderful time you had and do it again more often.
Go with your own friends. Leave mom home. Tell her she needs to play with people her own age and the car is full. She can pout as good as you did. |
en | N/A | N/A | Giving a psychic reading requires lots of focus, dedication and a certain know how of how to read people and energy. It is hard to imagine yourself not giving an accurate reading to someone that is paying you money. However, in the world today, many psychics are not accurate because they are not putting enough time into prayer and meditation.
You need to stay focused and rely on your sixth sense for answers. You may not know it now, but your sixth sense can communicate a lot of information by just closing your eyes and telling someone what you see.
Fear is probably a psychic worst enemy. Sometimes, you will be sitting down and feel like you are getting a positive read on someone. You may want to jump up and tell them what you are seeing clairvoyantly. However, another thought comes to you and you realize that maybe you are wrong. You, therefore, stop yourself from telling the other person what you are seeing and feeling.
Top Psychic Experts Often:
- Free psychic readings before charging for them.
- Meditate for long hours each day.
- Treat every client differently.
- Don’t remember what they told you (they often have to many clients to remember).
- Often have 5 star ratings on top astrology websites.
- Enjoy helping people.
It is important for a psychic to let go of fear if you want to become a top expert in the clairvoyant field. It is important for you to examine your own conscience. Examine what you are all about and where you see yourself headed later down the road. Being a psychic today is a lot harder than it was two decades ago.
Today, psychics must master the use of the internet. People today prefer getting a psychic reading via phone and chat. This is not something that psychics in the past were used to. Before the 1980’s, psychic readings were primarily done in person or through a letter in the mail. Today, psychics around the world are often seeing themselves having to do a psychic reading on their home computer through video or chatting with someone as well.
Some of us have aspects of clairvoyance. However, not everyone is meant to set up a psychic shop and read for people. Sometimes, a person can try hard to become an accurate psychic reader and yet they fail every single time. They simply are not correct enough to be called a full time psychic.
Top psychic experts have given thousands of psychic readings for free before charging money for them. Yes, they have taken the time out to perfect their skill. Giving free psychic readings is not easy. You never know who you will be talking to on the other side of the computer. At times, giving free psychic readings can be hard. You may get 20 or 30 in a single day if you work on a busy psychic hotline.l. Never lose sight that you may be benefiting yourself then the people that you are serving.
I say this because most people do not understand that giving free psychic readings helps you to become a psychic reader. Most men and women do not care if you are wrong. It is because they are not paying. Psychics often do not care if they are wrong either because they feel that they are using these people to practice on. During some free readings, you may find that your psychic intuition is a lot more powerful than you ever thought before was possible.
Do You Want To Feel Like You Are Touching People’s Lives?
If you are like me, you probably want to see that you are touching people’s lives and becoming someone that is more gifted. You want people to see you as an expert in reading energy and taking your time out for people throughout the day. It is hard to imagine yourself not giving people what they genuinely want and need in life. Being a top psychic expert takes time and effort. You really must see for yourself that you can enhance your psychic gifts and abilities with everything that you have working inside of you.
It itouch people from around the world. When you do that, you begin to stay more focused on what is going to matter the most to you.
I think that people in general often want to understand their clairvoyant abilities a bit better. They often want to see for themselves that they can become much more productive in what they want to achieve in their lives. It is important to keep a journal of your readings. Write down the things that you have learned and what you think that you need to achieve at a later point as well.
Giving psychic readings is fun and entertaining for most people. However, serious top expert psychics know that it is real information that they are giving to people. It is the “real deal” case scenarios that they are predicting.
It is best to allow yourself to see When you begin reading people, you begin to see different personalities coming your way and people simply telling you what they want to achieve or accomplish in their lives.
I find that my intuition is usually correct. Good psychics often have a reputation for being accurate. I know that I have had a lot of people tell me that I am a top psychic expert in my field. I am appreciative of that because I do feel like I have reached a point at this time of my life that I feel like I am. It is good to see that I have touched thousands of people’s lives through my abilities.
I am now considered to be someone that likes to help people. I like to feel that my intuition is just working on something new each time that I step out and try to do something different in my life. I think that everyone must reach a point in which they can say that they are working on themselves and learning more about their lives in different ways.
There is something about learning about people that makes a psychic want to dive more into their clairvoyance. Clairvoyance is a gift that takes time to build. However, once you build your spiritual gifts, you can use them to help thousands of people online and offline. It is best to take your time and begin learning about your gifts. It all happens little by little.

According to the recently conducFY05, the positive trends in most of the social indicators have gathered pace during FY02-05 compared to the FY99-02 period.

en | N/A | N/A | I’m not surprised. I failed to reach my own goals a couple of times. In fact, do you know that 92% of Americans fail to achieve their New Year’s resolution?
If goals are easy to reach then everyone will be successful. And sometimes you know what you have to do but you just can’t get it through it.
Let’s go look at the top 7 reasons why people don’t reach their goals.
Having a to-do list is greatBut sometimes, we tend to list down all the things that came up in our mind no matter how small or big it is. As our to-do gets too crowded, it’s easy to get distracted.
What you should do instead is transform your to-do list into your success list. I first learned about this when I read The ONE Thing by Gary Keller. I highly recommend you to read it and figure out your success list when setting up your goals.
Another common mistake is you’re trying to do too many things at once. A single goal would take a considerate amount of time and effort to achieve.
When you set too many goals, you tend to multitask. Unless you’re good at multitasking, you’ll be putting yourself behind.
When you set your goal, give it a thought for a second. Is it doable? Is it impossible to achieve?
Procrastination is unavoidable. When you think you have some time leverage to finish what you need to do, you tend to delay and you start late.
You heard this before, “there’s always tomorrow”. Well, guess what? Chances are you’ll never start.
Change your mindset, start today.
If your goal is to grow your email list, invest in tools that could help you build your email list fast.in doing what you do to achieve your goals. y. Something that you don’t normally get it or do it under normal circumstances.
Reaching your goals don’t have to be all about work. Rewards yourself and keep yourself motivated.
Too many people give up too soon when they encounter difficulties and roadblock. They just stopped… right before the goal line. They chose to let go of the goals and switched their attention to something else instead of finding a solution to overcome the hurdle.
Feel free to share with us your thoughts and help our readers to have a better chance of reaching their goals.
Agreed, if you have too many goals, it is hard to meet them. It’s important to prioritize your goals and then go from there.
such a great inspiring post! I really want to work hard to achieve more of my goals in 2018, (more than usual!) haha – love the idea of rewarding yourself for something you accomplished, I think this could potentially work really well for me – My biggest hurdle is definitely procrastination or another thing you mentioned that I relate to also – taking on too many things at once and not achieving rather than just taking on one thing and knocking it off your list!
Great tips here, thank you. I always seem to have too much to do and I need to get more focused – I’m slowly realising that self-discipline takes self-discipline – getting it is my big goal for Q1.
Thanks, Tanmay. Yep, that’s one of the mistakes I occasionally did when setting up my goals.
You make some great points. I can definitely relate to doing too many things. I’m learning for myself that when I write things down I accomplish more and more efficiently. When I don’t my mind get sidetracked and my ideas and thoughts and distractions can easily throw off my goals for the day. And resting and reinvesting in yourself is important.
Thank you. I found myself get sidetracked easily as well. And I ended up doing too many things at once. I do think getting off the internet helps me to focus on doing a task at hand, which means no browsing your facebook or twitter feeds or other sites till you complete your current task. |

You can either compile your own firmware (any Grbl version is OK but obviously the latest 1.1f would be best), or use my Z-XY firmware which homes Z and then XY together.

RE: My ElekslaserA3 Pro don't Move
@Firestone It's a software bug, very well documented (you can search for solutions) but since the program is no longer in development or supported you will have to work around it. There are other, better software options both free and low cost.
@Fabian72 It's probably 10X better than their previous attempt at software (Benbox), which is what I was cursed with when I purchased my first EleksLaser. It was the reason I developed T2Laser, so I could actually use the machine.
If you are interested, T2Laser includes some very useful features for the EleksDraw. For example you can do multi-color designs and it will pause and allow a pen change to the next color. The center line trace is perfect for the EleksDraw and the optimizer really improves the speed of creating designs.
The added benefit is a continually developing software with actual support.
RE: Elekslaser A3 vs A3X...
@CC-Fode The A3X is supposedly an upgraded model but the differences are minor based on pictures, I don't have one so can't comment if it's actually more rigid. The A3Pro is much cheaper and probably the better value.
RE: servo issue w/eleksmakerA3 drawing unit
@ditobamob If you are using T2Laser I can support you, my software is an all-on-one solution which includes the driver and firmware required. It also has the default parameters setup so you don't need to understand any Grbl values.

@Lindum In T2Laser there's a menu, you just click the option you want. It updates the firmware so you could use my free trial to make the change and then use whatever software you prefer. The E2 option sets A1 and C1 which are correct for the EleksDraw machine. |

round 80 per cent in the areas worst hit by the disease, known as ranavirus.
Research by biologists at the Zoological Society of London also fear that the virus could be having an equally devastating effect on other native amphibians found in the UK including the common toad and smooth newts. Dr Trent Garnersaid: "Many of these populations are hanging on by a handful of frogs.
"If the disease causes the frog populations to fall so low then so many other factors come into play that could cause local extinctions."
"Ranavirus disease has sort of fallen under the radar but it decades.
"Many of the die offs we receive reports about are in garden ponds and you get really sad accounts of all the frogs in a pond dying out."
The researchers examined frog numbers in a selection of populations around the country where ranavirus disease had been previously reported since 1996.
They found that in half of the populations they looked at, there had been repeated outbreaks of the disease. In almost a quarter of the cases, frog numbers had dropped by more than 80 per cent.
Ranavirus is first thought to have appeared in Britain in the 1980s when the first deaths were reported in the South East of England after being introduced through imported fish or amphibians. Flag article as inappropriate |

Always know your target and what is beyond.
Firearms Parts: d.ifles. Not to be confused with “magazine”. (See Magazine vs. Clip.)
Fore-end: the part of gun’s stock forward of the action, extending under the barrel and providing a grip for one hand below the barrel.
Grip: The part of the stock gripped by the firing-hand.
Muzzle: The forward end (mouth) of the barrel, through which the projectile exits.
Trigger: The lever that activates a firearm when moved, usually pulled by one finger.
Trigger pull: The amount of pressure needed to fully release a trigger to fire a gun.
Failure to Eject Spent Case:
Firearm malfunction caused by poorly seated or broken magazine.
Slam magazine into the magazine well. Tug to make sure it is seated. Tilt gun to the right so that any loose debris will fail out of the ejection port. Cycle Action rapidly. Pull back all the way and allow it to slam home. Hit forward assist (on AR’s).
Ammunition Malfunctions:
The rare case where the primer ignites, but there are not enough gasses to force the bullet out of the barrel. If the round fired did not sound right, nor did it hit the target, stop and do not fire another round. A bullet may be lodged in the barrel and the firearm may burst if another round is fired. If possible, remove the bolt or open the action and inspect the barrel from the breech. If a bullet is in the breech, use a rod and push it out from the breech. Never push it back in from the muzzle. Clean the barrel before shooting again.
If you are going to keep magazines loaded in your carry gun or home defense gun, I would suggest rotating magazines every six months in order to keep the magazine springs from loosing strength. Many believe that with modern metallurgy the magazine springs will not develop memory when compressed over long periods of time, however my equipment is expensive and my life is too important to take a chance. I have gotten into the habit of rotating loaded magazines every six months. For me, when we change the clocks in the Spring and Fall seasons, I rotate my magazines. I have the magazines numbered and simply download the magazine(s) that I’ve carried for the last six months and upload the next magazine(s) in sequence.
Numbering your magazines will help you with loaded magazine rotation, and will help you keep up with malfunction trends and determine whether an individual magazine is faulty (example: if the gun malfunctions fairly often with magazine number 4, but fire fine with all the others, it is probably the fault of the magazine). Number your magazines with a Sharpie brand paint pen. These are readily available at Michael’s or any high-end arts & crafts store. I like the oil-based, extra fine point. They come in different colors, but I simply go with white. You can also number your magazines with an electric engraver, however this is permanent. Should you ever want to remove the painted numbers, simply use a dab of mineral spirits on an old rad with a little “elbow grease”. The paint comes right off.
Magazine Color Coding:
Using colored electrical tape is a good way to mark rifle magazines so as to know which magazines are yours after a long day at the range or shooting class. Colored tape is also a good way to mark magazines if you choose to carry more than one type of ammunition type (example: red tape = tracer rounds, green tape = green tip armor piercing rounds, gold tape = frangible rounds, and no tape are plain old FMJ). Obviously using tape in this fashion only works on magazines that extend out of the weapon’s magazine well and only on the part that will be outside of the magazine well.. |

The March 7 post showed a picture of firearms instructor John Metzger making a presentation on Family Day for its current class of recruits. The post said that Metzger was "selling guns at the 255th Basic Family Day!" and received more than 50 likes. But acress on Tuesday that post was inaccurate and created by an employee who didn't understand Metzger's presentation. He says Metzger was speaking about guns officers carry on and off duty and the academy doesn't sell guns. The academy changed the post to read that Metzger was "explaining firearms safety in the home." |

1.0 out of 5 stars Flawed design undermines findings and erodes confidence in the implications
So the absence of a comparison group is a serious threat to the conclusions the authors draw because the design can’t answer the research question. We just don’t know if the core convictions they identify actually differentiate between success and failure—as they may be equally present in churches that aren’t doing well with youth. If we don't know that the characteristics identified predict success, then we also don't know if doing these things will lead to success.
Furthermore, correlation does not imply causation—which they acknowledge. In fact, they don’t appear to present any correlations in the book (e.g., “churches with more college students had more service opportunities”). They then deny and ignore this caveat: “However, we’re confident that the CEYP Project has identified six core commitments demonstrably present.” That is just as irresponsible as asserting that although the fact that winning race horses are brown and expensive may not contribute to their success, buyers should look for expensive brown horses if they want to win. I wish they would have included some correlational results. For example, before they started they hypothesized that 8 characteristics would be present, but they never report on whether or not these 8 characteristics were, in fact, present in successful churches.
In my opinion, there was also a specification problem. That is, the research and book leaves out many variables that are probably important. They made little reference to the fact that youth are often in high school or college, which would appear to have implications for the study (e.g., are these churches close to universities? Do these churches have a lot of families with high school students?). There was no talk of attracting Christians (e.g., transfer growth) vs. winning previously unchurched and unbelieving youth (e.g., conversion growth). It would make a big difference to me to learn about churches that reach youth as opposed to being the church where Christians from local universities attend or retaining the children of the church’s parents in their congregations. Given the design of the study, the book could have been strengthened with more theology for the points the authors were trying to make. Unfortunately this was also lacking because the book is based on research, so the authors didn’t spend a lot of time on theology.
So if you want to know what congregational practices lead to effective engagement of young people, the answers provided by this book should be taken with a grain of salt until they are verified with some theology, reasoned argument, or additional research findings.
3.0 out of 5 stars Lacks depth, appropriate only for beginners in this topic
I picked up this book because Sticky Faith was so helpful, but it's a few years old, and so I was thinking this one might continue in the same trajectory (it's the same author). At my church, we are working on a comprehensive plan to make faith stick more in our young people, and I'm reading voraciously to get ideas. After having read Powell's other books, this one was disappointing. It lacks depth. It would probablyyoung people in church. But, if like me, you've been thinking about this for a long time, save yourself the trouble and don't read this book.
4.0 out of 5 stars Must Read, Wish it Covered Accountability More Fully
I have found that emphasis on the saving grace of Christ, coupled with clear expectations and consequences is difficult when a church wants young people so badly that it ignores cultural stressors in the lives of immature Christians.
K. B. Dozier
5.0 out of 5 stars I’m glad we have that in common
So… you’ve probably found your way to this review because you care about young people. Me too! I’m glad we have that in common. I bet we have another thing in common… the struggle of determining just what exactly to do about it. This field is so full of ‘feelings’ and ‘personal experiences' it is difficult to sort out what is worth listening to and what will work in your context. Here is what Growing Young brings to the table: research based findings.
What the actual research shows is actually quite different from many of the conclusions myself and others have reached about millennials and what they are looking for spiritually. I don’t think I realized how many preconceived notions I had about millennials (despite the fact that I am one of them)… and most of those notions were discouraging at best. The findings presented in Growing Young are exciting! They are completely in-line with scripture! They give me hope! They are going to change my approach to ministry in many ways!
Despite being based on research, the book presents the findings in a very readable and relatable way. They also do a great job of providing you with tangible ways to make the leap from simply becoming educated on the issues to doing something about them. I don’t care what place you might hold in your church, from upper level leadership to low-person on the totem pole… you CAN have an impact in helping your church ‘grow young’ and in the process become a healthier, better functioning, God-pleasing body of believers. The time and money you spend on this resource will most definitely pay out dividends! In fact, I suspect after reading it you’ll buy another copy to share. I did.

3rd Gathering to Save Our Democracy, Nashville, Tennessee, Sunday January 2nd, 2:00 PM-5:00PM
BENTON CHAPEL, VANDERBILT UNIVERSITY
This Sunday, January 2, 2005, will mark the third Gathering To Save Our Democracy in Nashville. Our two previous gatherings, held on the steps of the Tennessee State Capital, have been well attended by people from throughout Tennessee and other states, and have generated some much-needed media coverage for the 2004 election fraud/theft issue. We have received coverage on Channel 5, WPLN, the Nashville Tennessean and other media. (We have also done two 30 minute public affairs programs on the election theft on two large Nashville radio stations and an hour-long public service program which included a discussion of the election theft was broadcast this past Sunday on five East Tennessee radio stations.) We want to continue to build momentum and support for free and fair elections here in Tennessee by scheduling this third Gathering To Save Our Democracy this coming Sunday (01/02/05). This third Gathering will help us garner more media attention and help us move forward to pursue remedies to the threats which our election process now faces.
y back!!
The evidence for this election theft is everywhere and is undeniable. Since 11/2, the Government Accountability Office has logged over 57,000 (and counting) reports of election irregularities and voting machine "glitches", 99.99% of which favored Bush. Numerous voters have reported that the electronic votes they cast for Kerry registered instead for Bush or another candidate. The total votes reported cast for President in many U.S. counties exceeded the total number of people who voted. (In Wyoming, with no important state races at stake, the total reported vote for President was 106% of the total registered voters there.)
In too many states, absentee ballots were misplaced or never counted, and provisional ballots were discarded in violation of election rules. Voting machines were disproportionately distributed to create long lines (and discourage turnout) in Democratic districts. And the disconnect between the exit polls and the "reported" vote – a prime source of speculation that the Ukrainian vote had been tampered with – was so bad in our own country that statisticians have placed the odds that this disconnect occurred by chance in the millions (or even trillions) to one. Against those odds, a PowerBall ticket would be a safe investment.
In the face of this overwhelming evidence of U.S. election fraud, our "mainstream media" has been virtually silent and our (unelected) President's concerned comments about the Ukrainian election seem hollow, misdirected and distractingly self-serving. We sincerely hope that the American people will become aware and resolute enough to re-import a love of democracy -- and an understanding of the necessity of free and fair elections as democracy's foundation -- from the Ukrainian people, whose brave actions have placed a spotlight on our own inattention to the obvious election theft in our country. And while we're at it, we hope that we can also re-import from the Ukrainians the wisdom and the courage to change the things that now threaten democracy in the United States, while we still can.
The Ukrainians are not our only brave role models. In the past month, a Nashville soldier in Kuwait (Spc. Thomas Jerry Wilson) stood face-to-face with Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld and demanded to know why he and his fellow soldiers were being sent into battle in Iraq unequipped and unprotected from the dangers they faced there. That bravery should be honored by our own presence at the Third Gathering To Save Our Democracy on Sunday, January 2, 2005 from 2:00-5:00 p.m. at BeWe will gather to hear veterans of the Nashville civil rights movement, to review the most damning evidence for election fraud and theft and to discuss short-term and long-term strategies to insure that free and fair elections -- the foundation of any democracy -- be protected in this country. If a single Nashville soldier can speak truth to (illegitimate) power and be heard around the world, so can we. We can do this -- together.
SEE YOU ON SUNDAY, 01/02/05, 2:00-5:00 P.M.
WHAT ELSE WE CAN DO NOW
1) If you have any questions about our third Gathering this Sunday (01/02/05), please email me (Bernie Ellis) back right away ( [email protected] ) so that I can answer your questions. (If you can't be there but want to be put on our Gathering email list, please write me also.)
2) If you may be interested in going to Columbus, OH to participate in the rally there on Monday afternoon, 01/03/05, please call Alma Sanford at the Davidson County Democratic Party headquarters (615/251-8823) or email her ( [email protected] ) right away. The cost is $40/person and we have room for 50 riders. If we are able to secure a bus for the trip, the bus would leave after our Sunday Gathering and return late Monday evening. Here's a link with more information on the Ohio rally: http://www.caseohio.org/CalendarEvents.htm
4) Please keep writing our U.S. Representatives and Senators to ask that they set aside the electoral votes when they meet on January 6, 2005, until a full inquiry is undertaken on the evidence for election fraud in Ohio and literally dozens of other states. We must have at least one Senator stand with the 14 Representatives (and counting) who have already committed to rejecting the electoral votes. I believe we need to write all our Representatives and Senators, andat the following links:

The weird downward creative trajectory of Tim Burton’s career says strange things about the current state of artistry in Hollywood. The blockbuster success of 1989’s Batman paved the way for two of the former Disney animator’s most aggressive artistic statements, Edward Scissorhands and Ed Wood. The helming of a billion-dollar picture, Alice in Wonderland, has spawned a much more creatively fallow period that includes Dark Shadows, Big Eyes and Alice wannabe Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.
After a family tragedy, teenager Jake Portman (Asa Butterfield) discovers that his late grandfather’s stories about a special orphanage in Wales—inhabited by Miss Peregrine (an exquisitely chipper Eva Green) and her peculiar children, like lighter-than-air Emma (Ella Purnell), invisible Millard, super-strong Bronwyn, the Masked Twins and Claire, who has a monstrous mouth on the back of her head—are all true. He also finds that he has the special ability to see the tentacled monsters called Hollows that, along with the Wights, led by Mr. Barron (Samuel L. Jackson), threaten Miss Peregrine and her peculiar children.
Miss Peregrine’s strengths are the sumptuous feats of visual magic Burton always gets right; even his worst movies achieve some manner of visual success. Burton still needs that special collaborator to carefully craft a narrative strong enough to compete with his dynamic visual talent. For all of Burton’s visual wizardry, the movie still cannot match the effectiveness of the most stunning aspect of Rigg’s book: the black-and-white found photos scattered throughout its pages. |

en | N/A | N/A | As we enter into a new season we begin many of our programs, especially our Religious Education Program, now referred to as the parish Catechetical Program. The change in name is because it is a way of looking at faith formation as a life-long process, a way of teaching about the truths of our faith to everyone and not only children, but also their families, all youth, all young adults, all adults – single or married. We are excited to begin this year with renewed life-long emphasis and with our new Catechetical Leader Mr. Kurt Hoover. We welcome Kurt and his family to our parishes and we look forward to building on the wonderful programs we had under the direction of Jeanne Higgins, our newly retired, now former Director of Faith Formation for over 12 years.
Last weekend was Catechetical Weekend. Mr. Kurt Hoover, our new Catechetical Director, spoke at all the Masses. The theme for this year’s Catechetical Sunday is: “This is my body, given for you.” There was a blessing of all our volunteer Catechists as well Parents, as catechetical leaders of their family, at the 11:00 am Mass. As the National Directory of Catechesis says”. Let us thank them for their efforts with our prayers for the coming year.
Our Catechetical Program for our school age children K-10th grade begins this Sunday, September 25th with a Family Fellowship Event at 10:10am in St. Patrick’s Gym. All families and children from both parishes are invited. Continental breakfast will be served. It will be anJeanne Higgins for her over 10 years of service to our parishes and formally pass the baton to Mr. Kurt Hoover, our new director. We will also introduce our Catechists for the year. Parents will then escort their children to their respective classrooms and introduce themselves to their teacher. All are invited to attend the 9 am MassUse the QR code to register your child(ren) for the year ahead or you can contact the parish offices or register at our web site – sta-sp.org.
Once again this fall, there will be offerings for adult catechesis. The Wednesday morning Bible Study will be back in session with Ascension Press’s “What We Believe, The Beauty of the Catholic Faith.” This 10 week presentation will be in the Cebula Room at St. Thomas Aquinas Church following the 10am daily Mass starting Wednesday, September 28th. Sessions begin around 10:30am and end by noon. On Wednesday evenings at 7pm starting October 12th we will be offering “The Chosen” in St. Patrick’s Parish Hall. The watch group will start with Series One, continue with Series Two, with hopes Series Three will then be out. All are welcome to either or both of these offerings. Kurt Hoover will also offer a six week program from Catholic Christian Outreach called “Discovery” whichLove, offered, proved and merciful. More information will follow in the bulletin and on our website. Dr. Sr. Teresia Mutiso, LSOSF continues her work with the Grief Recovery Program. The second group will be concluding by mid-October and the next cycle will begin later in the month. Please call the St. Thomas parish office with your interest in grief recovery.
We will be looking at hiring a full time Youth Minister who will assume responsibility for our 7-12th grade program as well as overseeing any youth programs, like CYO. Further, I am pleased to announce that Mr. Scott Burghardt will be the Moderator for our CYO program at St. Patrick’s. Mike Simeck Sr., Mike Simeck Jr. and Bill Benedict will continue to moderate our CYO programs at St. Thomas Aquinas. Organizational meetings will be held in October for those interested in helping. We are happy to be back for a full CYO season this year and look forward to serving the youth in our community. We appreciate the time and talent shared with our youth by the moderators and the many volunteers it takes to run a full program.
I would like to share with you Bishop Lucia’s vision regarding the importance of PCA’s (Pastoral Care Areas) and the diocesan offices that oversee all aspects of ministries within the diocese.
Fall newsletter September 2022During the coming year, Bishop Lucia and members of the Visioning Team will be outlining their hopes for the diocesan church and how the various offices will assist parishes in their efforts at renewing parish life and reviving our understanding and belief in t. We will update and keep you informed on both the visioning process and Eucharistic Revival.
As we continue to transition to a more normal life after COVID, though there are still concerns about its impact on our lives, we will follow the protocols established by the diocese, taking necessary precautions. While we understand that some may still feel reluctant to participate, especially for those who have health concerns, our hope is that more will begin to attend Mass and participate in the programs being offered. We will continue to live stream our Masses for those unable to attend and reach out to those who are homebound through our Pastoral Care Ministry. We are now allowed to have Mass in most of our nursing homes – and the people are so grateful for this opportunity. We have Mass every week at Hilltop (shared with St. James), at Susquehanna Nursing Home and we will begin next month at Bridgewater Nursing Home twice a month. Anyone wishing to help can contact our parish offices.
Our Outreach Ministry Program located at St. Cyril’s continues to grow. St. Patrick’s and St. Thomas Aquinas Parishes support this program by paying the rent to use this facility which operates five days a week. We have been averaging the distribution of 61,000 lbs. of food each month or 3,000 lbs a day. Within the last month, we have served 6,883 individuals. As part of the back to school effort, we served over 600 children. Outreach Ministries are busy planning for the holidays. We are collecting monetary contributions for Thanksgiving and toys for Christmas. Many volunteers from our parishes and other parishes and denominations help with distributing food to the many families and elderly ware so grateful to these many volunteers and those who support these efforts financially. We hope to begin offering Showers of Hope once again this fall. Barb Donnelly has been serving as a staff coordinator of the Outreach Ministries efforts and we welcome Marie Sullivan who is serving on a part time basis. St. Patrick’s also operates the CHOW Pantry and is supported by many volunteers from both St. Patrick’s and St. Thomas Aquinas and both parishes for supporting this program and for those who donate necessary items, like personal care items. Your support of these efforts are deeply appreciated. Volunteer help is always needed at both of these programs. Contact the Parish Office if you can help.
As far as operations project updates I can share that we are anticipating our new church door installation at St. Patrick’s for the holidays. We are also anticipating finishing work on the plans for updating the heating and air conditioning for the lower level classroom and at the entrances and back hallway at the school building for St. Patrick’s. We have accomplished roof and gutter repairs on the lower nave of the church as well as the rectory. At St. Thomas Aquinas the convent stained glass windows repairs are almost complete and the new school doors at the three main entries are slated to be installed by November. We continue the work on the convent carport/parish pavilion.
Enclosed you will find the financial report for your parish of registration. I am grateful for the work and support of our Trustees and Finance Councils and to the parish family for your continued support. I would also like to remind you that the Bishop’s Hope Appeal has launched for 2022 and ask you kindly consider what you are able to offer/pledge. You may do so online via Syracuse Diocese website. Mailings were sent out this past week. Brochures with envelopes are also available at church or by contacting your parish office. Thank youour parish community. |

Twenty-four female nurses on irregular rotating shift work were randomly selected from among medical personnel. Controls were 22 nurses who did not perform night duties. Appetite, eating pattern satisfaction, regularity of meals, health perception; number of full meals and snacks were assessed using standardized and locally validated questionnaire. It was found that rotating shift work had significant effect on the amount of full meals (d.f. = 2, F = 24.3.

Comparison of the two groups of nurses indicated that volunteers in the study group had lower number of reported full meals per day (t = 6,37, P < 0.001), lower self-assessed appetite (t=3.22, P < 0.01) and eating pattern satisfaction (t = 6.52, P < 0.01) during the night-shift phase of the rotating shift cycle than nurses on the day- shift schedule.

en | N/A | N/A | Will these 5 Healthcare IT (HIT) Trends Affect You?
Recently I was doing an internet search and bumped into an interesting article. It stated that there are 5 trends that will reshape health IT in the year 2013. Those are some serious words.
It seems like taking a closer look. What were these 5 HIT trends? How were they going to change the healthcare IT world?
5 Trends in Healthcare IT in 2013
It's not difficult to see why mobile health is going to be a trend in HIT. Just look at this quote from the Information Week article - "66% cited iPads or other tablets, up from 45% just a year earlier. This love affair continues to develop because tablets give them access to EHR data, drug reference materials, and a host of valuable data that in the past was only available in the office or hospital."
Although personal health records (PHRs) have not taken off yet, it seems like there is a real probability they will when they can be tied to electronic health records. At least that is what some experts believe. In fact, these "interactive PHRs" are something Microsoft is investing in, according tot he article. So, keep your eye on PHRs.
This is something that seems to be picking up steam. Maybe 2013 is the right time for this trend to really affect the HIT landscape. For instance, "Several large healthcare systems have established relationships with telemed companies. American Well, for instance, recently teamed up with Tampa-based University of Southern Florida Health to provide telehealth services to residents of The Villages, a large retirement community northwest of Orlando." The article goes on to list sever other examples.
EHR Vendor Shakeout
To begin with, "Healthcare providers have more than 600 certified EHR systems to choose from if they want to qualify for Meaningful Use financial incentives". However, things are likely to be shaken up a bit in 2013. As the article explained, there are many smaller companies who entered the market quickly looking for a quick return on investment. However, it's suspected they may not have the kind of capital it might take to sustain in the long run. In addition, there are some companies that are trying to compete in this industry who are paying so much attention to selling systems that they may not be holding up on the service end. These types of situations on the EHR space may result in significant changes.
EHRs can produce some useful reports. However, with new government mandates on interoperability and performance, EHRs just can't provide the kind of intricate analytics that meet these demands. That said, look forSo, will these trends affect you in 2013?
Even if these particular health IT trends don't affect you in the short term, it's only a matter of time IT pros will have to have the answers for their healthcare organizations. As always, it's good to keep an eye on these trends. |

In association with Beat the Streets Los Angeles (BTSLA) and Frederick Pictures, we are proud to present our new short film Move Your Feet.
The film premiered on Friday April 10th at BTSLA’s 2nd Annual Benefit to much acclaim and was part of a very successful night of fundraising and celebration of the organization’s progress in just three short years since inception.
Fittingly, to conclude the film portion of the evening, I turned the mic over to our star, Mercedes Rodriguez. As a strong, brave young leader she stood before 200+ guests and delivered a touching thank you speech. My favorite part of that speech:
Wisdom beyond her years.
Beginning last fall, I had the honor of writing and producing the short film for the non profit Beat the Streets Los Angeles (BTSLA), an organization which I serve as a Board Member and Creative Director.
Directed by Shawn Frederick, the short film will premiere at the 2nd Annual Benefit on Friday April 10, 2015 and then will be released online at btsla.org the following day.
Sticky Post By Brian Guerrero Posted in photography Permalink
Attending the February Jamboree, a youth wrestling tournament hosted by Beat the Streets Los Angeles for its constituents, I caught a glimpse of this emotional gamut and brought my camera along.
What fascinates me is that even at this local and novice level, these young wrestlers, many of whom have less than a year of experience in the sport exhibit some of the same emotions we see on the larger stage at a high school league or state championship, or what’s more at the collegiate level. The skill, athletic and experience gap between the youth novice and the college All American may be colossal but the raw output of emotion is very familiar.
Sure, there are no league or section titles on the line for these youth who participated at the Jamboree this month, it’s about experience, but you wouldn’t know judging by the output of emotion. They compete wholeheartedly and wear their heart on their sleeve… or singlet.
And the emotions, no matter up or down, need nurturing by community.
We commissioned Juliana Arboleda (my sister-in-law), a Junior Art Director who currently works for Ogilvy & Mather Colombia, to design the three part kit; marketing deck, brochure and the Annual Impact Report. Juliana (Juli) had done work in the months prior with Beat the Streets including invitation designs for our Annual Benefit and an announcement for our Camp Scholarship fundraiser. And whilst the collateral kit would prove to be our largest project for marketing, in my opinion it’s Juli’s finest work yet with our organization. Having just mailed out hardcopies to our donors last week, we’re already getting a great response on the Impact Report. We hope it inspires our community to continue to be a part of BTSLA and what’s more an advocate for youth development through sports.
This month marked the start of the Third Season for Beat the Streets Los Angeles, a sports-based youth development non-profit that I volunteer for. For me it’s been a convergence of two things that are very near and dear; the sport of wrestling and being a creative. Perhaps two things that I never imagined would intersect in my personal life.
I eventually followed up. I contacted the director and he invited me to come check out the program. It so happened to be in the neighborhood of my office. The biggest school district in America and arguably the largest market of architectural firms in the world, and this one little school gymnasium for Beat the Street’s headquarters and my then office were 3 blocks from each other! Fortuitous?

LYNDEN, Washington — In the last fortnight, Washingtonians have been basking in the effervescent glow of the Seahawks’ Super Bowl rout and showing the rest of the country that those World Trade Organization riots were an outside job.
And how did Washington state’s junior senator decide to celebrate this historic victory? Through a spectacular display of bullying and poor sportsmanship.
That’s what President Barack Obama did when asked. If he owned the Washington Redskins team, Obama told the AP in December, “I’d think about changing it.”
No, what Cantwell really did was threaten the NFL if it doesn’t knuckle under to the campaign of concern by our nation’s progressive hall monitors.
Cantwell’s determination of the term’s offensiveness, the letter opined, “
She argued that the Patent and Trademark Office ought to strip the team of its trademarks, making merchandizing profits impossible. She further not so subtly threatened the tax-exempt status of the NFL if it didn’t “You’ve got to love that last line, where she was unwilling to call the Redskins by their proper name even to say the name ought to go.
But the U.S. Constitution treats other things as far more sacrosanct than the bond between tribal governments and the feds. Such as the right to freedom of speech or the freedom” |

Beautiful tiny hoops that have a light weight but don't feel thin and flimsy. They are a little tough to close once you have them in your ear because they're so small. It's doable though.
These earrings are the perfect pair to leave in your ears and forget about. They pair well with any other earring, and are durable to sleep and shower in.
I splurged on the 14k option with no regrets! If you have sensitive ears I highly recommend doing the same. I have 3 lobe piercings which are close together. This huggie hoop is perfect, doesn’t crowd my other piercing and is so lightweight & comfy I forget I’m wearing it. These were my first huggies so I struggled a bit to figure out how to open/get them on (worried they’d break!) but they send you an email with tips!
I love these! They’re a little bigger than I anticipated, but it’s still a great size for a cartilage hoop. My experience overall was flawless and then some! They sent helpful information about how to care for the metal and how to open and close the hoop. I haven’t taken them out yet! Perfect for sensitive ears. </s> E-Kuber . rbi e-kuber portal login. e payment related latest circular Gujarat Educational department.

The New Orleans Pelicans are a team that is constantly creeping right below the eighth playoff spot in the Western Conference. They are on the verge of a playoff spot, but that gap is getting away from them as the Phoenix Suns have started to edge upward with the recent success that they have been experiencing. It looked realistic that they could rise in the standings, but it is looking less likely as the days go on. Although they did get a big win last night when they took down the Los Angeles Clippers by five points, they are going to have to have a lot of things go right for them if they want to make a playoff run this year. Even if they do make the playoffs, the Western Conference is so stacked with great teams that they would have to go on an insane run to make it anywhere in the playoffs. Sultan Alhokair is amused to even think about chasing an NBA title as a Pelican this year is laughable, but they can give it their best shot and they truly did play a great game of basketball last night against one of the best teams in the Western Conference. If they can keep stacking wins, they may have a shot come last in the season, but if they do make a playoff berth, they are going to have to play a seven game series on the road.
2015 NFL Hall of Fame Class Announced
Posted in Football, Sports | No Comments »
This year’s NFL Hall of Fame inductee class does not disappoint fans wishing to see their favorite players get inducted into the games highest honor. Leading this year’s group of outstanding players is Junior Seau the 20 year veteran linebacker who spent the majority of his time with the San Diego Chargers. Later in his storied career he played for the Miami Dolphins and in the Super Bowl with the New England Patriots. Fans over at Slow Ventures know that this was Seau’s first year of eligibility and brings back to life his suicide that has been linked to brain injuries he suffered from his playing in the league. Accompanying him into Canton, is the running back Jerome Bettis, wide receiver Tim Brown, Defensive End Charles Haley, and Tackle Will Shields all of these players were recent monsters on the grid iron that wreaked havoc on their opponents.
As the league’s senior classman selection the honor fell upon Mick Tinglehoff was named for his play as the Minnesota Vikings center from 1962 to 1978. This year’s final two inductees were general managers Bill Polian and Ron Wolf. Wolf is credited with the rebuilding of the Green Bay Packers franchise during the 1990’s. Bill Polian can be remembered as the General Manager who built the Buffalo Bills team that went to four straight Super Bowls, went on to the expansion of the Carolina Panthers and put the ground work in on the current Indianapolis Colts winning over the past decade.
Green Takes Lee’s Spot
Posted in NBA, Sports | No Comments »
The Golden State Warriors have an interesting situation on their hands that only proves to make them much stronger in the following years. First and foremost, they have been the most successful team by far in locking down their star players for long term contracts that ensure their success in the future, while also bringing up younger players to prominence such as Harrison Barnes and Draymond Green, who are both starting on the Warriors roster over former All Star players David Lee and Andre Iguodala. Susan McGalla knows that this says a lot about what is going to happen in the future. David Lee is on his way out of Oakland, hands down. He is expendable. Not only is he a player that seems to be plagued by injuries, but Draymond Green has been putting up better numbers than Lee and has a much more promising future. Draymond Green has stepped up and has carried this team and there is no way they would be where they are if it weren’t for him stepping up. He is going to remain as a starter in Golden State for a long time, due to the fact that he is up for a contract extension and he has performed so well this season that he is looking at a definite max contract. This leaves Golden State with the ability to trade David Lee and bring in even more talent with his salary burden evaded. |

2 Responses to “If You Must Cheat, Do It Right”
Wow. Hmmm. First, you’re right. Couples should be on the same page when it comes to cheating. What those rules are is up to the couple. Some relationships actually make provisions for it. But I won’t go there. I will comment on your statement that men are sloppier at covering their tracks. It’s true. But with infidelity rates with women going up in recent years, I suspect women are closing the ‘sloppy gap.’ PLUS stats show women cheat for other reasons and often get emotionally involved. This throws up all kinds of obvious signals to the spouse. We shouldn’t be giving tips on cheating but since you went there, two important things: 1. Learn the 50 mile rule, 2. DON’T fall in love if you have no intention of leaving your spouse.
I know I might get in trouble for saying this here but reputable research has shown affairs can actually strengthen relationships in some instances – although who wants to make that call, you know? But if someone finds themselves in a broken relationship and take solace with someone else, covering your tracks is a skill you should know if you don’t want out of the marriage. I’m not condoning it. Just be smart in whatever you do and think it through.

EIA Anticipates Growth in New Natural-Gas-Fired Generation Capacity in 2018, While New Renewable Capacity Remains Flat
Posted on May 8, 2018 by Jeff Bayne
The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) has released information on new generation capacity expected to come online in 2018. This report is based on data from January and February and on estimates for the remainder of the year derived from EIA’s Preliminary Monthly Electric Generator Inventory.
The 2018 capacity additions tell two different stories, one for renewable generation capacity and one for natural-gas-fired generation capacity. The total amount of new capacity expected in 2018 is 32 GW, which is greater than the capacity additions of any other year in the past decade and more than a 50 percent increase over 2017. This increase, however, is driven exclusively by growth in new natural-gas-fired generation capacity. New natural gas capacity is expected to more than double from about 9.5 GW in 2017 to about 20.5 GW in 2018. This is just under the total amount of new capacity that came online in 2017. About half of the new natural gas capacity in 2018 will come from combined-cycle units added in the PJM region, specifically 5.2 GW in Pennsylvania, 1.9 GW in Maryland, and 1.9 GW in Virginia.
In contrast, new renewable capacity in 2018 is expected to be approximately 11.5 GW, the same amount of renewable capacity added in 2017. As a result, for the first time in five years, new renewable capacity is expected to comprise less than half of the total annual new capacity. EIA expects approximately 5 GW of new wind capacity in 2018, 2 GW of which will be located in Texas. Approximately 4 GW of new solar capacity will be added, half of which will come from solar photovoltaic additions in California, North Carolina, and Texas.

en | N/A | N/A | Beyond Conquest Narratives: Hagia Sophia, Past and Present - Ali Yaycıoğlu and Patricia Blessing
Berkeley Forum - Georgetown University -on the political agenda of Islamist and conservative nationalists in Turkey at least since the 1950s. It was President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan who decided on the conversion of the monument from museum back to mosque, as he had promised during his tenure as the first Islamist mayor of Istanbul in the 1990s. To some of his followers, Erdoğan is the second conqueror of the city, after Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II. This belief requires creative interpretation of Quran passage 34: 15, baldatun tayyibatun wa rabbun ghafurun (literally translated, "a fair land and an indulgent lord"). In the Erdoğanist interpretation, the verse alludes to Mr. Erdoğan himself, by way of his middle name, Tayyip, and the "fair land" is Istanbul, helped by the fact that the numeric values (abjad) of the two words' Arabic letters conveniently add up to 857 in the Islamic calendar.
Given these promises and narratives, why did Erdoğan wait for so many years to make this decision? What does he expect from this move, for his domestic and foreign policy? Would it help him solve the political crisis caused by his diminishing popularity, especially among youth and women? Although this is clearly Erdogan's decision, why did he prefer that this political move be covered by a legal ruling by the Council of State, instead of a presidential decree? These are important questions, but
We think that both supporters and opponents of the decision in Turkey, the United States, and Europe share a narrative of conquest, based on an binary. Those who oppose the decision often focus on the building as a Christian monuments a result of conquest in 1453, into a museum by Atatürk in 1934, as a result of his secular policies, and now back into a mosque by an Islamist and populist leader. This narrative emphasizes how a Christian monument survived in a Muslim context, from the Ottoman Empire to secular Turkey or today's new regime. Those who are in favor of the decision, namely conservative Muslims in Turkey and some other Muslim countries, as well as Turkish nationalists, alsos the legitimizing factor. They see the 1934 decision as an unnecessary concession to the West, which deeply hurt pious Muslims. The recent decision also argues that because Hagia Sophia was part of Mehmed II's endowment (waqf), its status as mosque could not possibly have been removed, effectively rendering the 1934 decision illegal. (The larger implications of this discussion for the status of former waqf property in Turkey are potentially extensive.) |
en | N/A | N/A | Drinks giant Diageo says it's almost ready to debut a breakthrough in bottling.
Choosing environmentally-friendly packaging for beverages isn’t easy. Glass is recyclable and made from natural materials, but it’s also breakable and heavy, making it less sustainable to ship. Plastic, of course, is lighter and durable, but fails in so many other environmental metrics. Aluminum has also seen increasing popularity. But some speculate the Holy Grail would be a paper bottle—except as anyone who has left cardboard in the rain will tell you, paper and liquids don’t always mix. However, that is beginning to change.
With these sorts of innovations, the big question is always what keeps the liquids from degrading the paper over time? Unsurprisingly, Diageo was a bit coy when pressed for the specifics of their potentially breakthrough findings. However, they did say that the scientifically-advanced methods used to create the bottle involved curing the containers in microwave ovens before spraying them with a specialized coating intended to be compatible with whatever product the paper bottle is holding. Sure, it’s vague, but we have iPhones and space stations and whatnot, so solving the paper bottle conundrum was probably only a matter of time.
Speaking of which, it’s not like paper bottles came out of nowhere. For instance, the beer brand Carlsberg has been working on its plan for “the world’s first ‘paper bottle’” for five years now, even showing off two prototypes of their Green Fibre Bottle last October. At this point, though, it appears that Diageo—which also owns the beer brand Guinness—could be set to beat them to the punch.

By investing outside of an appropriate asset allocation and risk level based on your financial goals and situation, this will generally lead to greater volatility than you'll be comfortable with and poor long-term results. The best way to avoid this is to monitor and maintain an appropriate asset allocation level, continue to rebalance your portfolio during the downturn and 'stick to the plan' |

NAIROBI, Kenya – T findings and recommendations from its international pre-election assessment mission to Kenya’s general elections, scheduled for August 8, 2017.
The delAmerica, Europe and Africa: former cha Dr. Brigalia Bam; former, Pat Merloe; IRI board membe, Constance Newman;Dr. Keith Jennings; and NDI director of gender, women and democracy, Sandra Pepera.
During the week of April 3-7, the delegation met with: the Chairman CEO; political party leaders; government officials; the Chief Justice; the Speaker of the National Assembly, religious and civic leaders, including gender, youth, peacebuilding, election monitoring and media sectors;consultations examined election preparations, assessed the political environment, and offered recommendations that Kenyan citizens, can take to ensure the integrity and peacefulness of the electoral process.
The delegation calls on all KenyaIEBC and to conduct the campaign period in a peaceful manner that follows the laws, regulations and codes of conduct for Kenya. The delegation offered 19 recommendations in two main areas -- ensuring electoral integrity and ensuring peaceful elections. Among the two areas, the delegation put forth recommendations concerning election day technologies, election results verification, voter registry verification, political dialogue, and developing an inclusive political process.
The delegation conducted its assessment in accordance with Kenyanwill continue its observation with a mission on election day. NDI’s international pre-election assessment mission in Kenyahas supported Kenyandemocratic reforms since 1993.

We will review the notion of information in the most possible general sense. Then we will revisit our definitions of entropy in quantum physics from an informational point of view and how it relates to information theory and thermodynamics. We will discuss entanglement iny, and how to quantify it and distinguish it from classical correlations. We will derive Bell inequalities and discuss their importance, and how quantum information protocols can use entanglement as a resource. We will introduce other notions of quantum correlations besides entanglement and what distinguishes them from classical correlations. We will also analyze measurement theory in quantum mechanics, the notion of generalized measurements and their importance iWe will introduce the notions of quantum circuits and see some of the most famous algorithms in quantum information processing, as well as in quantum cryptography. We will end with a little introduction to the notions of relativistic quantum information and a discussion about quantum ethics.
This survey course introduces three advanced topics in quantum fields and strings: anomalies, conformal field theory, and string theory.
This course will cover phenomenological studies and expincluding: natruralness, extra dimension, supersymmetry, dark matter (WIMPs and Axions), grand unification, flavour and baryogenesis.
This course is designed to introduce machine learning techniques for studying classical and quantum many-body problems encountered in quantum matter, quantum information, and related fields of physics. Lectures will emphasize relationships between statistical physics and machine learning. Tutorials and homework assignments will focus on developing programming skills for machine learning using Python.
From Noether’s celebrated theoremfrom Landau’s to Wilson’s classification of phases of matter and phase transitions, symmetries have been key to 20th century physics. But in the last decades novel and more subtle incarnations of the symmetry principle have shown us the way to unlocking new and unexpected phases of quantum matter, infrared and holographic properties of the quantum gravitational interaction, as well as to advancements in pure mathematics to mention a few.
The course begins by discussing several topics in equilibrium statistical physics includingThe second part of the course covers non-equilibrium statistical physics including kinetics of aggregation, spin dynamics, population dynamics, and complex networks.

Here's your opportunity to share your passion for adventure racing. It'll be a cold dark night in January - what better time for friends, food, drinks and some great adventure on TV?

The weather was perfect for snow; about -3 to -5 degrees and about 4 inches of snow. I went on two ~15km runs with the highlights being the lake run, queens park, and of course, the beautiful cemetery and old grove park.
I had the trails to myself as most people in town don't go out much once the snow hits. The differences in people's lifestyles at home versus the west coast is evident. If I was in the greater Vancouver area, there would be lots of people out enjoying the snow whether it be cross country skiing or running (no mountains to climb in Stratford :) ).
Instead, the only people I saw looked at me with a crooked grin and asked if it isn't just a bit too cold to be out running.
Check out these photos I took from the plane.

At this point he looks at the bikes on the car as it's puking snow and freezing cold, looks at us, smirks, and says
"Have a nice time" as he hands back our passports.
Eric Bone - BEAST Race Director
The course was comprised of two back to back mountain biking legs (with a check-in at race headquarters after each leg) and then an orienteering foot course. In order to prevent bike congestion at the start of the course, Eric had us run a small loop to stretch out the teams. We hit the bikes in first and pretty much kept this spot for the entire race. We were both pretty cold at first but quickly warmed up. Ok, most of us warmed up but eventually our extremities (particularly our feet) became blocks of ice attached to our pedals that we could transer energy through. We both had our Helly Hansen waterproof jackets, which worked awesome in the conditions, but Gary didn't bring a shell pant which enabled the blocks of ice on his feet to move up to his knees similar to the freeze over in the movie 'The Day After Tomorrow' except in slow motion.
Also, a big no thanks to whoever made the BC Ferries bomb threat and screwed up the schedule so that I was an hour later in getting home.

en | N/A | N/A | Q: about drawing sinus function in gnuplot when it is pressed a keyboard Is it possible to draw sinus function on the interval: [-2*pi, 2*pi] in the following way:
when I press right arrow on the keyboard to produce sinus function on the interval: [-2*pi, -pi]
when I press again to plot sinus function on the interval [-pi, 0]
left_lim(n) = (i%2 ? -pi : -2*pi)
Depending on your overall logic (what should happen if you hit the key a third time?) you must adapt this script a bit. |

In reviewing the WCW Official Annual 1996 last week, I noticed a profile on The Renegade and felt I needed to dwell on this character somewhat. After all, this was the WCW ripoff to end all ripoffs, as far as I'm concerned. Forget Arachnaman as a poor man's Spider-Man (which Tom Holland laughed about quite recently), or Big Boss Man's return to WCW being announced as "He's a big boss, man!" - this one persona takes the (ultimate) cake. Here's the background to this fascinating story....
Got that theme in your head? Can you envision Vince McMahon screaming "Here comes the Alllllllll-timate Warri-yeah!"? Great, now check this happy little number out:
Following his WCW debut, The Dollar Tree Equivalent Of Ultimate Warrior w at The Great American Bash PPV, a match that Ric Flair criticized in his autobiography To Be The Man because the decision was pushed by Eric Bischoff despite Renegade being, you know, not that great a wrestler.
In an interview several years later, the actual Ultimate Warrior claimed the move was done as a scheme to force Warrior out of retirement and head to WCW to battle his kind-of doppleganger. And guess what? The actual Warrior DID go to WCW, albeit three years later, at which point Renegade was used as a stunt double inside the War Games cage at Fall Brawl.... so maybe WCW knew what they were doing?
Ultimately (oooh, poor choice of words), Wilson was released by WCW towards the end of 1998 and killed himself a year later. According to Flair's biography, the man had severe depression after being fired by WCW, and Naitch angrily accused Hogan and Bischoff of building the guy up to meet unrealistic expectations.
A very sad ending to a career of someone who was never looked upon fondly in WCW. But I will.... always believe! </s> ko·ji | \ ˈkōjē \

en | N/A | N/A | text. Rex paused, gave her a devastating smile and signed the book.
Alexi looked down at her plate again. She wasn't the jealous type. Things like that would never bother her—normally. But she couldn't help wondering what Rex was thinking as he looked at the young woman. Was she someone that he would want to call once Alexi had returned to New York?
"Before I forget," Gene was saying, "I thought you might enjoy this."
"Pardon? I'm sorry."
Alexi returned her attention to Gene. He was handing her a smallh.
"Eugenia Brandywine's diary. She left it to me—I was always such a pesky kid. Interested in war and life. I thought you might enjoy it. She made entries after the war, but an awful lot is about Pierre, meeting him, running away with him. Very...romantic."
Alexi stared down at the little book. She would enjoy it; she would treasure it, just as she treasured the old house and the very special history Gene had always given her. She looked up at him again. "I can't take this. It's a family treasure—"
"Alexi, you are my family." He patted her hand. "Eugenia's family. Keep the book. Take good care of it."
"I will!" Alexi promised. She leaned over to kiss his cheek. "Thank you so much."
He smiled at her, covering the softness of her hand again with the weathered calluses of his own. "No, Alexi, thank you." He stood then, abruptly, an amazingly handsome man of immense dignity. "I've got to go."
"Go?" Alexi echoed hollowly.
"Good heavens, yes. I have a chess match with Charles Holloway in less than half an hour, and I'll be damned if I'll let that youngster catch me napping."
"Youngster?"
"A mere eighty-eight," Gene told her. "Kiss me again, Alexi. It's an old man's last great pleasure."
She kissed his cheek. By then, Rex had finished with his fan and reached the table. He shook hands with Gene.
"Have a good sail, now," Gene said.
A streak of stubbornness flashed through Alexi. If Rex had been over at the other table, planning his future dates, then he should already be asking one of them out on the boat.
"I don't think I'm going, Gene." They both stared at her. She certainly had their attention. She smiled serenely. "Maybe I'll scout some nearby kennels for a good German shepherd."
"Alexi, you know that you are making me insane," Rex said softly.
"Really? Then I'm quite sorry."
"Alexi, you're going on the boat."
"Rex, I am not."
He looked as if he wanted to explode. At the moment, it was nice. He couldn't possibly make a move against her. They were in a public restaurant, and Gene was standing right beside him.
Rex looked at Gene. "What the hell am I supposed to do?"
Gene shook his head. "Women. They're very independent these days."
"Yes, but is a man supposed to let one get herself killed?"
"That's up to the man, I suppose," Gene mused.
Alexi, who had been watching the interplay between them, suddenly gasped. Rex caught her arm and dragged her out of the chair and threw her over his shoulder.
"You can't do this!" Alexi wailed. "We're in a public restaurant! Gene...?"
The world was tilting on her. Rex was walking quickly past tables and waitresses and startled customers.
"Have a good time, Alexi!" Gene called.
"Rex, damn you, you can't—"
"Alexi, most obviously," he promised her, "I can."
And, most obviously, he could. They were already out in the bright sunlight again, and Rex was hurrying down the dock toward a beautiful red-white-and-black sloop with the name Tatiana scripted in bold black letters across her bow.
Alexi was dizzy. He was walking so quickly that her chin banged against his back and the ground waved beneath her feet. She spat out his name, then swore soundly. But he didn't seem to hear a thing—he didn't even seem to notice that she was ineffectually struggling to rise against his sure motion. "Rex—"
He swung sharply—and made a little leap that seemed to Alexi like a split-second death plunge on a roller coaster.
They were on the boat. He still didn't stop. They quickly passed a dining booth and a plaid-covered bunk and a little door marked Head. Then Rex barged through a slatted door and dumped her down on something soft. For such a tiny cabin, it was a big bed, built right into the shape of the boat and full of little brown throw pillows to go with the very masculine brown-and-beige quilt that covered the bed.
"This is absurd," she told him, curling her feet beneath her and trying to rise to a dignified position. She got high enough to crack her head on the storage shelves that stretched over the bed.
"Small space," he warned her. "And you're absurd. Yes, no, yes, no—dammit, use some common sense and don't act like a school kid."
"You have the nerve to say something like that to me when you're acting like a Neanderthal?"
"It's better than behaving like a jealous child."
"This one all started because I gave out a lousy autograph."
"Oh, you know, Morrow, you really do overestimate your charms. I just don't want to be here."
He touched her face with his palm. "Don't worry, sweetie. There's nothing to be afraid of out here. You won't need to sleep with me. You can have the cabin all to yourself."
Her rejoinder froze on her lips because—despite his bitter denunciation—he was slipping his shirt over his head. Still staring at her in a cold fury, he kicked off his shoes, then started to slide out of his jeans.
"What—what are you doing?" Alexi gasped out, pained.
"Oh, don't get excited," he tossed back irritably. Naked except for his briefs, he turned from her, bronzed and supple and so pleasantly muscled. He opened a drawer, pulled out a pair of worn denim cutoffs and climbed into them, smiling at her sudden speechlessness. "Eat your heart out, Ms. Jordan," he told her. And then he was gone, slamming the slatted door in his wake.
Alexi, numb, stared after him for several seconds. A moment later, she heard the rev of a motor and felt movement.
The cabin was lined with little windows. Alexi bolted to the left to look out and saw that the dock was fast slipping away from them.
"Why, that... SOB!" she muttered. They were passing the channel markers to the right and left and heading for the open sea. She was off with him for the duration—with or without her agreement.
She threw a pillow across the room in a sudden spate of raw fury. He couldn't do this. He really couldn't—she had said no. But he was doing it anyway. He deserved to be boiled in oil. Someone needed to tell him quickly that this was the modern world. That he couldn't do things like this.
It wouldn't matter, she decided grudgingly. Rex would do what he wanted to do anyway.
After a moment, Alexi realized that the hum of the motor had stopped. She could hear footsteps above her.
And she could hear Rex swearing.
She smiled after a moment, realizing that he had turned off the motor to catch the wind with the sails. And he was having |

Absolutely amazing! Service and food were top notch as always! Pure class!
Ho hum - another wonderful meal at Morton’s......amazing beet salad, signature chopped salad, 2 huge chops (veal & pork), and a bowl o’ berries. It may not be exotic, but it’s delicious, gorgeous on the plate, top quality, and managed by a stellar staff. It’s worth the cost and more.
Food was great, service was good, atmosphere was just another tightly packed mall restaurant.
Outstanding drinks and food. Pricey (with special coupon dinner for two, one cocktail each, cheapest bottle of wine on the menu, and tip = $300). Very noisy, but service was good.
Steak was a bit fatty, but the rest of the meal was good
The service was excellent. Friendly, appropriately attentive. Food serviced perfectly. |
en | N/A | N/A | Kelly Pavlik Fires Back at Carl Froch, Talks Sturm, Lopez In early January, former WBA and WBO middleweight champion, Kelly Pavlik, was released from a two-mhe was treated for issues with alcohol.On Monday, the 28-year-old Pavlik (36-2, 32 knockouts) was back in the gym in his native Youngstown, Ohio, where he and trainer, Jack Loew, were gearing up for a 170-pound, May 7 clash with 28-year-old Alphonso Lopez (21-0, 16 KOs) of Cut And Shoot, Texas.Pavlik-Lopez card of a main event featuring eight division titlist Manny Pacquiao (52-3-2, 38 KOs) in defense of his WBO welterweight crown against Shane Mosley (46-6-1, 39 KOs).Pavlik earned the crown by dethroning Jermain Taylor by seventh-round knockout in Atlantic City in September of 2007, but lost it in April, this, following a unanimous decision setback at the hands of southpaw Sergio Martinez (47-2-2, 26 KOs).Pavlik's only other loss was in a non-title, 170-pound bout against former undisputed middleweight king Bernard Hopkins (51-5-2, 32 KOs).Loew is hopeful that Pavlik could eventually face either 33-year-old WBC super middleweight king, Carl Froch (27-1, 20 KOs), of England, or even 31-year-old southpaw IBF belt-holder Lucian Bute (27-0, 22 KOs), Canada.Pavlik has even mentioned a potential bout opposite WBA middleweight king Felix Sturm (35-2-1, 15 KOs) at a catch weight over the 160-pound middleweight limit.BoxingScene.com caught up to Pavlik for this Q&A.BoxingScene.com: Kelly, what do you want to say to your fans?Kelly Pavlik: To the fans, you know, the ones who have been supportive and stuck by me, I have really, definitely appreciated the support. You know, that has meant a lot to me. Especially those in my home town. The loyal fans, it helps a lot. It really, really does.You know, it gives me a whole lot more to look forward to. It gives me a lot of encourage to get back out there. And I'm ready to do what I do best, and that's fighting in the ring. I'm ready to get back out there and to make a statement and to put my fans and my home town back in the spotlight again.The fans, the ones that have supported me, it's something to cherish and share about, actually.BoxingScene.com: Do you mind answering how many days it has been since you have had a drink?Kelly Pavlik: That's not a problem. I do know that the last day was Nov. 2. I left for rehab on Nov. 3.BoxingScene.com: Do you consider yourself to be an alcoholic?Kelly Pavlik: You know, if you go by the program rules, I am. But there are a lot of us who could be and don't know it. But I'll touch on it with you. A lot of people get hard-headed and don't want to say that they are. I'm not one to say that. To tell the truth, I don't think about it.It's not really a big concern to me. When I was doing my 60 days, the last thing that was on my mind was drinking. I think the main thing is to do what they say to do, and that's to take it one day at a time.I think that whatever I can find that keeps me occupied and keeps me away and keeps me from thinking about it, that's what I do. If I talk about it, then alcohol is going to be on my mind. But right now, I'm running around and keeping myself so busy that that's the last thing on my mind. I'm being careful, though, not to overload myself with stress and pushing myself to that point.I have found my own little routine that keeps me occupied and keeps me comfortable and it works.BoxingScenes?Kelly Pavlik: You know, I'm learning a lot of things. I've learned that I can be an a**hole at timeslearn and what I can take out of it is to be strong.I'm very strong-willed. Even with the rehab thing, I could have easily said, 'No, I'm not going to do it.' But I didn't do that. I realize that some things have just got to be done.And I've had to make the best of that situation. As far as fights, I don't let the losses in my career bring me down. I've learned a lot.BoxingScene.com: What perspective do you have on your ring setbacks?Kelly Pavlik: My perspective is good, especially seeing what Sergio Martinez is doing right now. The guy is a phenomenal fighter, obviously. But I think that if you look at the last two rounds of our fight, if I win the last two rounds of that fight, you know, I win the fight against Martinez and then his career isn't where it's at right now.But, you know, at the same time if I had hit the right number in the lottery I would have hit that also. So, you can't live off of that either. You know, a loss is a loss. I take that as being strong-willed. I can take things and get past things and get through things. I have to move forward and keep doing that, and I can't let up.You know, any time that you let up in any aspect of your life, that's when things can creep up and sneak up on you.BoxingScene.com: How did it feel being back in the gym?Kelly Pavlik: It felt like home. I felt really good. I felt energized. I had a lot of balance and a lot of snap on my punches and it felt good to do the extra things. Instead of just doing two rounds on the double-end bag, I did three rounds on it. I just had the giddy-up in me today. I felt good. I felt at home.I think that it's going to be even better when we officially start sparring and getting into a lot more of that part of the workout routine. We'll start hitting the Iron Man warehouse and doing the agility drills and strength training classes and putting the whole, entire package together like we usually do.BoxingScene.com: What did today's training consist of?Kelly Pavlik: We've been running for a couple of weeks now, but today, we just did a mile and a half. But what we tried doing was cutting the time down on it. We didn't take a stroll for a mile and a half. A lot of it has to be done within a certain time limit. We tried to do it in a good spurt. So, like today, it was trying to get it done in 21 minutes.At the gym we picked up everything, you know, a couple of more rounds. I sparred a couple of times and we'll pick that up. We don't go a full, eight weeks of sparring because, again, you don't want to take your toll on the body.Right now, it's just getting back in and getting into a groove. Getting the movement back down. I think that the biggest is going to be the timing. Getting the timing down, the punches, the counter punching, things like that in the next couple of weeks.BoxingScene.com: Did you actually spar today?Kelly Pavlik: I didn't actually spar today. But I sparred last week a little bit with a guy who was in the gym. He was an amateur fighter who was about 175 or 180. You know he had good movement.He was a good boxer with a good amateur style.When you've got a kid coming in and firing punches pretty much the whole entire round, we worked on that last week. This week, we worked on the bag and the hand pads. We were working on defense and mixing a lot of things up today.BoxingScene.com: How much do you actually weigh?Kelly Pavlik: Right now I'm in the mid 180s. We've actually been coming down in the last couple of weeks and keeping an eye on the weight. I was up as high as about 195, and that was pretty much all muscle. But we're getting away from the weights now. There's really no reason to be doing the weights right now.I'm not going to be playing in a football game or tackling anybody. So we have the strength. That's there. So now, we're going to add in the natural strength, you know? Like with the pullups and the natural things like the excercises that build a lot of strength.That way, we're not getting too much bulk and muscle, and we still have the snap and the looseness. We'll be doing a lot of jump stretches for speed and agility. So there will be a whole lot of things this time that we're going to be putting in and not do it like we usually do.I don't think that we'll have to worry about the weight issue this time. In the past, the thing was what gym we're going to have to get to to make weight. This time, it's going to be a lot more time in the boxing gym and a little bit of those workouts throughout the day where we're not killing our body to make weight.BoxingScene.com: Do you believe that you will fight ideally at super middleweight or light heavyweight?Kelly Pavlik: There's a chance of fighting at light heavyweight, but right now, the game plan is 168. That's the main concern right now. Like I said, it's going to be hard making weight, but it's not going to be as much of a problem as it was in the past. It's not going to be anything like making 160.It's just a matter of how much weight and how hard it is to make the weight, and making 168, I don't see it as being that much of a problem. I might have to cut weight and get into the sauna a little bit. But nothing like making 160. So I think that 168 is going to be our home, and I think that we're going to be pretty comfortable making that weight.BoxingScene.com: What do you know about Alfonso Lopez?Kelly Pavlik: We've finally got some film on him, and I'm going to go in and look at that pretty soon. I've got some clips from Youtube, and it looks like we're going to have to be on our toes.Especially after a year layoff, he's going to be somebody that I can't take lightly. He's a big, strong kid, and I see a little bit of a boxer in him. He tries to move a little bit.I know that they're saying that they want to move on me a little bit. I don't understand it. People want to bring up Bernard Hopkins and Sergio Martinez and their movement. If that's what he wants to do, to go in there and to move, I hope so. That will be great. As far as his ability, you know, I didn't see too much.I can't be a guy who says that he hasn't fought anybody, because that was the same thing that they said about me when I was in his boat coming up. Other guys, you know, the top prospects, when I got ready to fight them they said the same thing about me. They would say that I hadn't fought anybody and they weren't worried about me.But I've been there and done that, so I can't look at it from that angle. But he's a strong fighter who is 21-0 with 16 or 17 knockouts. So, I mean he can obviously punch a little bit no matter who he's fighting. It will be a guy that we're taking very seriously.BoxingScene.com: Lucien Bute? Carl Froch? What are the big fights that you're looking at next?Kelly Pavlik: I would definitely say those, due to the fact that we're at super middleweight. You know, the Butes, the Froches. Fights like those are very intriguing and great fights. I would love to fight Carl Froch in a heartbeat. That guys been talking a lot of smack. I don't understand where he's on his high horse.If you go back and do breakdowns of our fights, and people who know boxing would know this: Carl Froch got destroyed by Jermain Taylor for most of the 12 rounds. If Taylor could have taken a knee twice in the 12th round when he got knocked out, then he still would have won the fight. That's how far ahead on the scorecards he was.Before that, he was just knocking the crap out of Froch. If you take my second fight with Taylor, which wasn't a knockout, I out-boxed him and won by decision. Granted, it was a close fight because Taylor's a very smart fighter and a naturally talented fighter, but where Taylor hits Froch for 12 rounds, I hit much harder than Taylor.So if I hit this guy like Taylor did, I don't see it going the distance. So I don't see where this guy is coming from. I think that right there would be a very intriguing fight for me. Felix Sturm has said that he would be willing to come to a catch weight and fight me. I think that would be an interesting fight. That would be a fight that I would love to take.That has been a fight that I have wanted right since right after I won the world title was one with Sturm.Tags: Carl Froch , Kelly Pavlik , Felix Sturm , Alfonso Lopez , Pavlik-Lopez , Pavlik vs Lopez User

en | N/A | N/A | "It's a big bet for us," Evernote CEO Chris O'Neill says. "This is part of the broader vision to say, 'How do we make this thing more powerful when used with other people?'"
My decision to hack Evernote for collaboration versus using some other platform—say a project management tool like Basecamp (also a great product!
O'Neill thinks so, at least. "If you're doing something meaningful, you're going to work as a team," he says. "Our opportunity is to create a new category of information tools that blends the individual with the people in your life."
Since collaboration is primarily about playing with information, O'Neill argues, information transparency and management are two of the most important things leaders of tomorrow need to get better at. It's an echo of what General Stanley McChrystal,author of Team of Teams, advocates. "Thleader's job is to push information" to the team, McCrystal says, "to get them contextual understanding, and then tell them to make decisions themselves."
Breakthrough leadership and problem solving, O'Neill says, "both start with being open and transparent."
"When two people are looking at the same thing and have different perspectives, it creates conflict," O'Neill says. "When this happens, the selfish part of me is like, 'Okay, can you guys go work that out?' But as a leader, I've changed my view to say, 'Hey, if people are disagreeing, that's good.'"
This starts with putting viewpoints on the table, O'Neill says, and having people explain what they're hearing from the other side. Summarize in your own words the thing you disagree with. "That's one technique that's very obvious," O'Neill says. "The other one is to switch roles, and say, 'You're advocating the other person's role now.'"
"The nuance that matters is honoring individuality," O'Neill says. "That's really powerful if you get it right."
This is the challenge that platforms like Evernote will face when it comes to enabling the future of collaboration: How do you create tools that allow for the kind of flexibility diverse groups of people need to be themselves at work?
"It's starting to happen," O'Neill admits. "Consumerization of work—it's sort of a stupid, old way to say it, but ultimately workflows are going to be user chosen, and then company enabled."
"If you're trying to do something really magical or important in the world," O'Neill says, "it doesn't just happen to one person. Name one thing that was accomplished by one person?" |

en | N/A | N/A | According to New Study, Tropical Forests Capacity to Absorb Carbon is Diminishing Fast
Research Trending World
Tropical forests are capturing less and less carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, thereby significantly reducing their capacity to act as ‘carbon sinks’, and this could have a serious impact on the global efforts to fight climate change, a study found.
Through his experiments,in the mid-1990s, Thomas had assisted in establishing nearly four 10-hectare research plots in the Ituri Rainforest in the region. This dense forest, home to small forest antelope, monkeys, and the occasional zebra-striped okapi, served as living laboratories that, a quarter-century later, yielded key data for th Leeds.
Sunset on the Tapajós River, deep in the Amazon rainforest, in Brazil. (Source: The New York Times)
To elaborate more on the findings, Thomas and study researchers have said that “intact tropical forests – that is, those that haven’t been logged or otherwise commercially exploited – absorbed only about six percent of man-made carbon emissions by the 2010s. That’s compared to 17 percent in the 1990s.”
See Also: What Is Climate Change?
This study essentially upends the long-held assumption by scientists that tropical forests which are wholly intact are absorbing more carbon than they’re releasing, essentially cleansing the environment of human-induced pollutants.
But Thomas and his co-authors have now concluded that this positive process is not happening anymore in South America and Africa as many trees are dying. They say climate change is likely to blame, while not completely. This is decreasing the tropical forests’ capacity to absorb more carbon than they produce.
What’s more worrying, Thomas opines, is that the “amount of carbon released into the environment from decaying plants will be greater than the amount of carbon absorbed by living plants”.
“That point of diminishing returns has been thought to be not for a long while, maybe 100 years away,” he says. “Now we know that it’s already here, or imminent.”

At night, her body curls up as she dreams of the depressing inevitable. She awakes, shaking, feeling a tear slide down her cheek. “No”, she begs. “Please no…”
The days continue on, the same foreboding ache in her heart. She tries to ignore it, ignore the signs. But then. it’s too late. It is physical, it is real, it has been verbalized into the world. There is no going back.
Her spirit warned her, tried to protect her heart. And yet, there was still hurt. Instead of nightmares, her nights were filled with tears. Crying until there was nothing left to cry about. Food lost taste, the sun didn’t bring her joy, she stopped leaving the house.

en | N/A | N/A | Several measures indicate the U.S. economy may be near a recession. It has been , which is an unusually long period of time between economic downturns.
And, the Federal Reserve has resumed monetary tightening, including raising interest rates. This could be a headwind for the prolonged rally in U.S. stock and bond markets. This has compelled many economists to believe the U.S. is overdue for a recession.
If a recession is in the offing, investors should reposition their portfolios, away from riskier growth stocks that would be vulnerable to an economic downturn. Instead, investors should put focus on high-quality dividend stocks.
The reason is because dividend stocks offer several layers of protection when stock markets decline. First, dividends are a source of real returns--the best companies keep pumping out their quarterly payments, in bear markets or bull markets.
Andre the types of companies that remain profitable, even during recessions. A consistent level of profitability means a company is continuing to build shareholder wealth.
Right now, the S&P 500 has an average dividend yield of 2%. The good news: it is not difficult to find blue-chip companies with dividend yields at or above the index average. Some premier dividend stocks have yields upward of 4%. While interest rates remain relatively low, these dividend yields are highly attractive.
This article will discuss the top 10 dividend stocks--in no particular order--that investors should buy to prepare for the next recession.
Recession Proof Stock #1: AT&T
While a recession would be devastating to many speculative stocks, investors can take solace in the fact that most consumers will still pay for their wireless cellular, TV and Internet service.
AT&T (T) is a Dividend Aristocrat, which are stocks in the S&P 500 with 25 or more years of dividend growth.
Click here for the full list of Dividend Aristocrats.
It has increased its dividend for 33 years in a row, and the company should have little trouble raising its dividend in the future.
AT&T's dividend represented approximately 70% of the company's free cash flow last year.
AT&T's revenue increased 12% in 2016, thanks in large part to the $49 billion acquisition of DirecTV.
The DirecTV purchase made AT&T the largest pay TV provider in the world. It resulted in a global giant, with more than 26 million customers in the U.S., and another 19 million customers in Latin America.
AT&T generated $16.9 billion of free cash flow for the year, up 7%rose 5% in 2016.
The company added 9.5 million wireless customers last year, including 6.2 million in the U.S. and 3.3 million in Mexico.
To produce growth up ahead, AT&T has its eyes on another megamerger. It has a pending agreement to buy Time Warner (TWX) for $109 billion.
Time Warner has many valuable cable and premium TV properties, including CNN and HBO. It also has a large movie studio. It has three out of the top five basic cable networks, and the No. 1 premium network.
Purchasing Time Warner would be a great diversification tool for AT&T. It would allow AT&T to expand into media. The combination would result in a giant company, with 133 million nationwide mobile and 25 million video subscribers.
AT&T has a 4.8% dividend yield, which is more than twice the average dividend yield of the S&P 500.
Recession Proof Stock #2: Johnson & Johnson
J&J (JNJ) has a very long history of dividend growth. It is one of only 19 Dividend Kings, a list of stocks that have 50 years of consecutive dividend growth under their belts.
It has maintained such an impressive track record, because of its excellent brands. Some of its popular consumer brands include Johnson's, Neutrogena, Listerine and Tylenol. J&J has three large businesses--care products--that collectively generated $15 billion of free cash flow in 2016.
All three operating segments posted sales growth last year, after adjusting for the U.S. dollar. Operational sales growth was as follows:
Pharmaceuticals: Up 7.4%
Medical Devices: Up 0.9%
Consumer Health: Up 1.5%
Total revenue grew 3.9% for the year, to $71.89 billion. Excluding all nonrecurring items, full-year sales growth was 7.4% worldwide, including 8.9% in the U.S., and 5.7% outside the U.S. Earnings-per-share rose 8.5% on an adjusted basis last year. On an operational basis, earnings-per-share increased 9.4%.
These are very strong growth rates, and were largely due to J&J's pharmaceutical segment, led by oncology and immunology. In oncology, multiple myeloma drug Darzalex reached more than $500. Sales stand to grow much higher moving forward, since J&J recently received approval for two additional lines of the drug. Another strong performer last year was Imbruvica. Worldwide sales soared 84% in 2016, to $1.25 billion.
In immunology, sales of Stelara rose 31% last year, to $3.23 billion. J&J's future growth will be comprised of its strong pharmaceutical pipeline, and acquisitions. In 2017, J&J acquired Actelion for $30 billion. Actelion is an R&D company which focuses on treating pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Earnings are likely to grow at a mid-to-high single-digit rate going forward, which will be more than enough growth to continue increasing the dividend each year.
Recession Proof Stock #3: Coca-Cola Co.
Coca-Cola (KO) is a global beverage behemoth. It owns or licenses more than 500 brandIts portfolio includes 20 individual brands that bring in at least $1 billion in sales each year.
And yet, Coca-Cola is struggling. The reason is because Americans are drinking less soda. In 2015, soda consumption fell to a 30-year low in the U.S. The decline in soda consumption has caused Coca-Cola's financial performance to stagnate.
Sales have fallen every year for the past five years. In 2012, Coca-Cola generated total revenue and net income of $48.02 billion and $9.02 billion, respectively. Last year, sales and net income fell again, to $41.86 billion and $6.53 billion. Earnings-per-share declined 24% from 2012 to 2016.
In response to the changing beverage landscape, Coca-Cola has branched out into still beverages, such as water, juices and teas. It has a large portfolio of popular brands in these areas, including Dasani, Minute Maid, Simply Orange, Honest Tea, Odwalla and more. These products are performing well--still-beverage volume rose 3% for the year.
The problem Coca-Cola is having with this strategy is that its flagship soft drinks such as Coca-Cola, Diet Coke and Sprite continue to make up the majority of the company's profits. Sparkling beverages--ready-to-drink carbonated beverages--represented 72% of the company's worldwide case volumes last year, down just one point from the previous year.
Coca-Cola still has two major advantages: pricing power and international growth. The company's price/product mix shift boosted revenue by 6% last year. And, organic revenue rose 12% in Latin America, and 3% in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
A world-class distribution system and pricing power allows Coca-Cola to generate huge free cash flow, even though sales are declining. Last year, Coca-Cola had free cash flow of $6.53 billion. This more than covers its dividend. In 2016, the company returned $6 billion in dividends.
, including a recent 6% increase. The new annualized dividend rate of $1.48 per share provides a 3.4% dividend yield.
Recession Proof Stock #4: PepsiCo
PepsiCo (PEP) is very much like Coca-Cola, in that it is a huge soda company. However, PepsiCo offers the added bonus of diversification. In addition to its beverage business-which includes sparkling and non-sparkling beverages like Pepsi, Mountain Dew, and Gatorade-PepsiCo has a large food business.
PepsiCo operates Frito-Lay snacks, as well as Quaker. It also has healthier snack brands such as Sabra hummus and Naked juices. Sabra generates roughly $800 million in annual sales, while PepsiCo management expects Naked to be its next brand to reach $1 billion in annual sales.
PepsiCo's sales are divided almost equally between food and beverages. Its diversification is highly valuable, given the declines of soda consumption in the U.S. Thanks largely to its food business, PepsiCo's currency-neutral revenue rose 4% last year.
Cost cuts helped drive 9% earnings growth in 2016. Es, increased 15% in the fourth quarter.
PepsiCo generated $7.4 billion of free cash flow last year. The company's adjusted return on invested capital was 21.5% last year, which is well above its cost of capital. Such strong cash generation allows
PepsiCo is a very strong dividend growth stock. It has hiked its dividend for 45 years in a row, including a recent 7% increase for 2017. The company expects to return $6.5 billion to shareholders in 2017, made up of $4.5 billion of dividends, and $2 billion of share repurchases.
PepsiCo expects to generate another $7 billion of free cash flow in 2017. Earnings, adjusted for currency fluctuations and one-time expenses, are projected to rise 8% this year.
The company is being negatively impacted in the short-term by the strong U.S. dollar. But, its international exposure is a long-term catalyst. PepsiCo's growth will be fueled by international markets, particularly under-developed economies. Last year, the company grew organic revenue by 9% in Latin America, and 5% in Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa.

Recession Proof Stock #5: Hormel Foods
Hormel (HRL) is a diversified food company. Its refrigerated foods business represents nearly half of its profit. Some of Hormel's core brands are Jennie-O, Spam, Dinty Moore and Skippy. Hormel is adept at making accretive acquisitions. It seeks high-quality brands withthat it can leverage with its distribution capabilities.
This provides for significant cost synergies, which results in sales and earnings growth. For example, last year, Hormel increased sales by 3%, and earnings-per-share by 29%. The strong results continued in the first quarter of 2017, when Hormel produced a record for earnings-per-share. Revenue increased another 3%, along with 2% earnings growth year over year.
Hormel's major acquisitions in the past few years, have revolved around the strategic desire to enter new product markets. Specifically, Hormel is ramping up its exposure to natural foods and organics. Its recent deals include:
2016 acquisition of Justin's, maker of natural nut-butter products.
2015 acquisition of Applegate Farms, maker of natural and organic meats
2014 acquisition of CytoSport, nutritional products company
Those acquisitions helped diversify its brand portfolio. Hormel's overall results are being negatively affected by falling poultry prices, which is a headwind for its large Jennie-O segment. But, this is likely to be a short-term fluctuation.
Its next quarterly dividend will be its 355th dividend payment to shareholders. And, its dividend growth is very impressive. For example, last year's increase was a 17% raise. Hormel has a 2% dividend yield, which is in-line with the average yield in the S&P 500. However, it makes up for an average dividend yield with very high dividend growth.
Everyone needs to keep the lights on, no matter the condition of the economy. Plus, the utility business model is augmented by being a regulated industry. ConEd receives periodic regulatory approval to raise rates. Along with population growth, this virtually ensures a modest amount of revenue growth each year.
Trends improved as 2016 drew to a close. Earnings, as adjusted for non-recurring items, rose 13% in the fourth quarter. For 2017, the company forecasts earnings, as adjusted, to be in a range of $3.95 to $4.15. The middle of the guidance would represent a 2% growth rate from 2016.
One potential risk for ConEd moving forward is rising interest rates. Utilities have relatively high levels of debt in their capital structures. Higher interest rates are likely to increase ConEd's cost of capital. Fortunately, the company has a strong financial condition. ConEd holds a 'BBB+' credit rating from both Standard & Poor's and Fitch. It receives agencies.
And, earnings should remain stable, and grow modestly each year. A reasonable assumption for a large utility's long-term earnings growth is 1% to 2% above the rate of GDP. Utilities are a highly saturated industry, but can still grow from higher rates, population growth and cost improvements.
In fact, ConEd is the only electric utility included on the list of Dividend Aristocrats. Investors can expect the company to raise its dividend at or near the rate of earnings growth, around 2% to 4% per year. T3.5%.
Recession Proof Stock #7: McDonald's
McDonald's (MCD) is a fast food goliath, withMcDonald's has embarked on a major turnaround. The company's sales had fallen as it lost customers to competitors in the quick-service restaurant space.
In response, the company re-dedicated itself to renovating its restaurant, closing under-performing locations, and lowering costs. McDonald's also moved to more quickly respond to what its customers wanted. Specifically, McDonald's unveiled All-Day Breakfast, and a reshuffled value menu.
Among its strategic initiatives, are improvements in quality, convenience and value. This means a continued emphasis on improving its ingredients, reducing customer wait times and keeping prices low. In addition, McDonald's will be enhancing its digital capabilities in a big way.
Inside the restaurant, McDonald's will be rolling out kiosks to place orders. This will allow for greater convenience and personalization for its customers, and means no longer standing in line. The food is brought directly to the table.
These are all positive steps to restore traffic. And, McDonald's is a good pick for a recession. Consumers tend to scale down their spending on eating out when the economy enters a downturn. In fact, McDonald's was a very strong performer during the Great Recession. In 2008, McDonald's earnings-per-share grew 26%. It followed this up with 8% growth in 2009.
Recession Proof Stock #8: Wal-Mart
Wal-Mart is the world's largest retailer. It is a discount retailer, and thanks to its unparalleled retail distribution system, it is very hard for competitors to match its prices. The company actually benefits from economic uncertainty, because consumers typically scale down their spending during recessions.
Wal-Mart sailed through the last recession. However, Wal-Mart's earnings have declined in recent years, which has forced the company into a turnaround. Going forward, Wal-Mart is making major investments in its e-commerce platform, to better compete with online retailers.
Wal-Mart expects to spend around $11 billion during the current fiscal year, to continue renovating its physical stores, and building its e-commerce business. This investment is possible because Wal-Mart is highly profitable. In the last fiscal year, it had profit of $13.6 billion. Elevated spending will likely result in another year of declining earnings.
Wal-Mart stock has a 3% dividend yield, and the company has raised its dividend for 44 years in a row.
Similar to Wal-Mart, P&G (PG) is also engaged in a large turnaround. P&G's growth slowed down over the past several years. In response, it has gone through a massive restructuring of its brand portfolio. The company decided to sell off low-growth brands, so that it can focus on its higher-growth product categories.
Its major transactionsway (BRK.B) for $4 billion. Later, P&G divested its beauty brand portfolio to Coty (COTY) for $12 billion.
P&G's strong brands and highly profitable business model allow the company to pay steady dividends. It has paid a dividend for 127 years in a row, ever since the company was incorporated, all the way back in 1890. And, it recently raised its dividend by 3%. This was an acceleration from the previous year's 1% dividend growth rate, reflecting the success of the huge portfolio restructuring.
P&G has now come through with dividend hikes for 61 years in a row. It is a Dividend King. On an annualized basis, P&G's new dividend rate is approximately $2.76 per share. This amounts to a 3% dividend yield.
General Mills (GIS) is a food giant. It has a large portfolio of packaged and refrigerated foods, including several cereal brands, as well as Yoplait, Pillsbury, Betty Crocker and Progresso. The company has encountered challenges recently, due to declines in its cereal and soup businesses. General Mills' cereal business is among its most important segments.
It seems that consumers are moving away from cereal and canned soup. Also, its yogurt business is under intense competitive pressure from Greek yogurt brands like Chobani. This caused General Mills' sales to decline 6% in fiscal 2016currency-neutral revenue fell 2% for the year.
For example, in 2014 General Mills acquired natural food company Annie's, for $820 million. Led by Annie's, General Mills' natural and organic portfolio is growing at a double-digit rate. It is expected to reach more than $1 billion in sales this fiscal year.
In the meantime, the company is highly profitable. Stability is a benefit of operating in the food industry. This allows General Mills to reward shareholders with steady dividends each and every year. General Mills has made dividend payments to shareholders, without interruption, since 1925.

Matt says: April 2, 2007 at 11:01 pm This seems weird to me for two reasons:
1. If I’m not mistaken both the Oswald collection and Secrets Stories and Magic were slated for release under the new Disney Legacy Collection brand. Those future titles are now wiped from the official Legacy page and there’s no mention of the Destino release which sounded like it would have an entire DVD dedicated to it:
http://disney.go.com/disneyvideos/disneylegacy/
Amy Mebberson says: April 2, 2007 at 11:59 pm Well I should HOPE they’d do more Treasures, at the very LEAST to complete the Donald collection.
So the Legacy collection is supposed to kind of take over from the Treasures? Sounds like a branding perfect for Song of the South.
Jennifer says: April 3, 2007 at 10:44 am Three cheers for Oswald! Hip hip hooray!
