Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week’s topic was pretty open-ended: recommendations for X (Hufflepuffs, Game of Thrones fans, etc). I thought I’d go for some under the radar retellings for readers who love them as much as I do!
Scarlet by A.C. Gaughen: Scarlet is a genderbent Robin Hood retelling with amazing characters, lots of action, humor, a love triangle done right, and an interesting dialect that took some getting used to but added so much charm to the writing.
A Long, Long Sleep by Anna Sheehan: an extremely unique, heartbreaking, and thought-provoking Sleeping Beauty retelling set in a futuristic world.
Geekerella by Ashley Poston: the perfect mix of geeky fandom culture and a Cinderella story with a diverse cast.
A Little In Love by Susan Fletcher: a devastating but engrossing story inspired by Les Miserables, told from Eponine’s POV. I wish more people talked about this book!
Cruel Beauty by Rosamund Hodge: Beauty and the Beast meets Greco-Roman mythology in this lush, strange, and darkly romantic retelling. It’s a little confusing but worth the read!
Ash & Bramble by Sarah Prineas: this mash up retelling isn’t for everyone- it’s dark and a little confusing at first, but it also has one of the most original villains/story mechanics I’ve ever come across. I liked how intriguing and twisty the plot and characters were.
Hook’s Revenge by Heidi Schulz: A really fun Peter Pan-inspired adventure! The writing was sharp and descriptive and had that humorous winking bite, and Jocelyn is a heroine worth following.
Stitching Snow by R.C. Lewis: A sci-fi retelling of Snow White, this book always slips under the radar and I’m not sure why! Essie is self-sufficient, badass, and brave (she cage fights!) and I loved the droids; I also love the hate-to-love romance. The setting and worldbuilding was extensive but not confusing, the villains were disturbing, and I loved all the Snow White allusions throughout the story.
Entwined by Heather Dixon: I’m not sure how well this holds up but when I read it I thought it was a magical retelling of Twelve Dancing Princesses. The ending could have been more dramatic but it’s a good read for fairy tale fans.
And I Darken by Kiersten White: a genderbent historical retelling of Vlad the Impaler, Lada is a wholly unique and vicious YA character. The political machinations, the detailed inclusion of religion, and the moral grayness of characters make the book stand out along with its attention to action, romance, family loyalty, and non-Western culture.
Princess of Thorns by Stacey Jay: the rare book that has everything I love in a fantasy and also manages to be an original retelling/sequel of sorts to Sleeping Beauty.
For Darkness Shows The Stars by Diana Peterfreund: this dystopian retelling captures the romantic spirit of Jane Austen’s Persuasion so perfectly in a wholly unique setting.
The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller: I’ve read and watched my fair share of Troy adaptations but this is the best; the writing is exquisite and lovely. It felt fresh and original, accessible, and brought to life these magnificent doomed characters.
The Boleyn King by Laura S. Andersen: a what-if retelling of Tudor history where Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn’s son grows up to be king. It feels like well-researched historical fiction but without the comfort of knowing what actually happens! The new and reimagined characters are really compelling.
Tiger Lily by Jodi Lynn Anderson: The story is a very clever and familiar, but alien retelling of Peter Pan. I loved the focus on Tiger Lily and thought it was interesting to have Tinker Bell narrate the book. It’s a sad little book with a complex emotional journey.
What are some of your favorite retellings, both well known and lesser known? Let me know!

When the Toronto Maple Leafs play the Vegas Golden Knights tonight, will it be a good time to play them, or not? The Golden Knights are the Pacific Division leaders; however, they’ve dropped three of their last four games on home ice.
The Golden Knights’ last loss was by a score of 2-1 to the Chicago Blackhawks last Saturday night. The Blackhawks goalie was none other than former Vegas goalie Marc-Andre Fleury, who stopped 30 of 31 shots during his first game in Las Vegas since being traded to the Blackhawks during the offseason. Fleury, the former face of the Golden Knight’s franchise and the goalie who helped them move to the Stanley Cup finals in their first season of existence, didn’t want to leave the Golden Knights. He exacted a bit of payback in that victory.
In this edition of Maple Leafs’ News & Rumors, I’ll take a look at the news emerging from the team as it prepares for the second game of their four-game road trip. The team is still short two key players – Mitch Marner and Pierre Engvall; however, Ondrej Kase is back in the lineup after missing a few games with an injury.
Item One: Nick Ritchie Feels He Still Can Contribute to the Maple Leafs
In a recent post, I had written that last week could not have been a good one for Nick Ritchie. He received two slaps in the face. First, he was put on waivers by the Maple Leafs. Second, no other NHL team – not one – showed any interest and let him slide through waivers.
That’s good for the Maple Leafs because, if Ritchie were moved to the AHL’s Toronto Marlies, the team will gain some needed salary-cap wiggle room. That would allow them to play both young defensemen Rasmus Sandin and Timothy Liljegren at the same time without moving anyone else. However, passing through waivers really hasn’t changed Ritchie’s day-to-day playing experience with both Marner and Engvall under the NHL’s COVID-19 protocols. In the end, that might also be good for Ritchie.
Two days ago, Ritchie was interviewed by the Toronto Sun’s Lance Hornby and spoke at some length about being placed on waivers. He noted that being put on waivers “wasn’t news a hockey player wants to hear.”
Related: Winnipeg Jets Logo History
Ritchie admitted he “was disappointed at the time, but I’m still here in Toronto. I’m just trying to get my game in order and be someone who can help this team the second half of the season.”
He also admitted that he hadn’t gotten off to a hot start and that was on him. However, he thought he’d “shown signs of playing good hockey. It was on me, getting off to a hot start, but it has only been 30 games. There’s a lot of time to help this team.”
His plan was to “keep working hard and coaches and teammates can help with that. Sometimes, it just starts clicking and you remember some of the good things you can do.” (from “MAPLE LEAFS NOTES: Will reinforcements make it west for back-to-back games?” Lance Hornby, Toronto Sun, 09/01/22).
Item Two: Is There a Chance Josh Ho-Sang Might Play for Team Canada in the Olympics?
I’ve often noted that I thought Maple Leafs’ fans were lucky to have a number of really good writers and thinkers who cover their team. One of my favorite Maple Leafs’ writers is The Leafs’ Nation’s Jon Steitzer. In a piece he wrote earlier this week, Steitzer asked an interesting question about the possibility of Josh Ho-Sang playing in the Olympics for Team Canada.
Steitzer believed an Olympics Game invitation might provide the Maple Leafs with a chance to see Ho-Sang play on a bigger stage. However, he also noted that “old wounds don’t close quickly with Hockey Canada” and Ho-Sang might not be assured of a place on the team.
From my perspective, one of the best things about Ho-Sang’s season with the Marlies is that there seems to have been little drama. That’s a very good thing, and it likely puts Ho-Sang in the Maple Leafs’ future plans – whether for the end of this season or for next season. I have to believe that the Maple Leafs laid down the law to Ho-Sang, who I’m guessing vowed to not engage in issues similar to those that sullied his reputation in the past.
If that’s the case, unless there are things fans don’t know, Ho-Sang has done what was asked of him during his AHL season. If so, Maple Leafs’ fans might expect some formal contract between Ho-Sang and the Maple Leafs either for the end of this season or for next season.
Item Three: Line Combinations for Tonight’s Game
If yesterday’s practice is any indication, there will be some new line combinations tonight. After Alex Kerfoot’s strong showing with Auston Matthews on Saturday night against the Colorado Avalanche, he’s moving down to his more regular spot on the second line. Ondrej Kase draws into the right-wing spot on the team’s first line.
Ilya Mikheyev will move to the third line with shutdown center David Kampf with Wayne Simmonds on the right. Finally, Jason Spezza will center the fourth line with Kyle Clifford on the left and Ritchie on the right.
It’s no surprise that Jack Campbell will start in goal.
What’s Next for the Maple Leafs?
The Golden Knights are the Pacific Division leaders, but their home record is far from stellar. Last season, they put together a 21-5-2 record at home; however, their record this season is only 12-9-1. Only the expansion Seattle Kraken (6-11-2) have more home losses than the Golden Knights in the Pacific Division.
That probably means Vegas will come out blazing. It should be an interesting game for Maple Leafs’ fans. I’m anxious to see Kase play on the first line again with Matthews. I’m also interested to see if Mikheyev can continue to be a point-a-game player.
The Old Prof (Jim Parsons, Sr.) taught for more than 40 years in the Faculty of Education at the University of Alberta. He’s a Canadian boy, who has two degrees from the University of Kentucky and a doctorate from the University of Texas. He is now retired on Vancouver Island, where he lives with his family. His hobbies include playing with his hockey cards and simply being a sports fan – hockey, the Toronto Raptors, and CFL football (thinks Ricky Ray personifies how a professional athlete should act).
If you wonder why he doesn’t use his real name, it’s because his son – who’s also Jim Parsons – wrote for The Hockey Writers first and asked Jim Sr. to use another name so readers wouldn’t confuse their work.
Because Jim Sr. had worked in China, he adopted the Mandarin word for teacher (老師). The first character lǎo (老) means “old,” and the second character shī (師) means “teacher.” The literal translation of lǎoshī is “old teacher.” That became his pen name. Today, other than writing for The Hockey Writers, he teaches graduate students research design at several Canadian universities.
He looks forward to sharing his insights about the Toronto Maple Leafs and about how sports engages life more fully. His Twitter address is https://twitter.com/TheOldProf

Al-Haq Center for Applied International Law
Around 40 years’ experience of defending human rights in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT) has provided Al-Haq with outstanding expertise in the practical application of international law and international human rights law. In July 2009, this rich history inspired the organization to establish Al-Haq Center for Applied International Law, with the aim of transferring its accumulated experiences to new and existing human rights defenders, professionals in the field, journalists, diplomatic missions, students of law, and postgraduates in international law and human rights.
The center, based in Ramallah, Palestine, is the first Palestinian civil society body to specialize in the practical application of International Law. The center aims to combine theory and practice to enhance the capabilities of the local civil society and the international staff working for international agencies by providing them with the essential applied knowledge of the violations taking place. The center aspires to become a learning space for human rights defenders, civil society actors, and professionals who wish to systematize their work and link international law to violations that are taking place on the ground.
The Center’s Vision and mission:
The center aspires to see the Palestinian society enjoying their rights and freedoms and to eliminate the violations of International law and human rights in the context of the OPT. It also seeks to have the Palestinian society governed by the rule of law and its rights protected by International law.
The center seeks to ensure the application of the principles of international humanitarian and human rights law in the OPT by using research, education, and training to enable activists, professionals, students, diplomats, civil society agents both locals and internationals to influence decision making at the national and international levels. It also attempts to contribute to a change in the politicized discourse surrounding the Palestinian Question towards a more rights-based discourse.
- Develop the capacity of activists, students, and professionals specializing in international humanitarian and human rights law to defend human rights on the national, regional and international levels.
- Transfer Al-Haq’s practical experience in the areas of international humanitarian and human rights law to activists and students from Arab countries through a program of regional seminars.
- Keep civil society actors, professionals, journalists, and human rights defenders updated on the most recent legal analysis defusing between theory and practice.
- Perform as a space for professionals, and activists seeking to further develop their skills, research and knowledge of the OPT.
- Serve the general public by raising its awareness of human rights issues, trends of violations, and the applications of international law through seminars, lectures, screenings and international law consultancies for interested groups.
- Professionals and volunteers from civil society institutions both local and international.
- Students of Law, young academics and postgraduate students in the fields of international law and human rights.
- Diplomatic missions, and internationals working at the international agencies in the OPT.
- Human rights defenders and interested individuals in human rights, international law and its applications in the local context.

Do you Value your Money Choices?
I am not a Financial Adviser. I make no recommendations about what you should do with your money, how you should invest it, how much you should spend or save.
I think it's important (hugely so) that I don't give financial advice - because it means that I am not invested in you making certain decisions about your family financial future.
But I am invested in your family using your money in the way that provides the most value for YOU.
I work with my client families, just like you, to help you clarify exactly what you're currently spending on - and whether you're really getting the best value from those choices.

CBD For Life Shampoo is made with a blend of essential oils, botanicals, and pure cannabidiol. What do we mean by pure? There are no other compounds or molecules in the hemp extract, just pure isolated CBD for a product that’s free of THC, terpenes, and so forth.
When applying this shampoo to your hair, it works to restore the oils in your locks and in turn helps to re-moisture it. In the process, your hair may become stronger and healthier. Hemp seed oil is one of those ingredients that helps with this given its high fatty acid content.
Best of all, this shampoo works great with all kinds of hair and is safe to use on previously color-treated locks. Finally, this product is free of GMOs, parabens, phthalates, formaldehyde, and artificial colors.

Estate planning discussions often give the impression that every senior in America is married with two or more kids. That’s not true, of course, and those who do not fit the profile need estate planning guidance at least as much as the stereotypical couple does.
Unmarried people should put a priority on developing the traditional estate planning documents that don’t pertain to disposition of property: the health care proxy (or advance medical directive or living will) and financial power of attorney. Without these documents, when the single person is unable to make medical decisions or take care of financial matters, there might not be someone to make decisions whose authority will be readily recognized.
In developing the financial power of attorney (POA), you need to identify one or more people who are able and willing to take care of financial matters if you aren’t able to. Then, you need to set up your financial affairs so the person can understand them and take over when necessary. Show the person how you set things up and how he or she can find whatever information might be needed. Of course, be sure the person has a copy of the POA and that your financial services firms will accept it.
The key with the health care documents is to designate one or more people who will know and follow your wishes.
In addition, you might need a document naming those who are allowed to visit you during a stay in a hospital or other facility. Otherwise, at some facilities only family members are permitted to visit.
Also, long-term care insurance, or a plan to receive and pay for long-term care, often should be a priority for an unmarried person. The sources of long-term financing are the same as for married people. But it’s more important for a single person to make long-term care plans, because there aren’t family members who can and will assist with care, navigate the long-term care options, or help make decisions.
As with a married person, when a single person passes away without a will the distribution of the property is determined by state law. If there are children, in most states the property will be divided among them.
When there are no children, the disposition can be very different from what most people expect and would want. The disposition often depends on the state of residence and which relatives are alive. The estate might be divided among parents, siblings, half-siblings, cousins, or nieces and nephews.
Having a will goes a long way toward solving the distribution problem. Yet, it often is best for a single person to have most assets in a revocable living trust.
One good reason for a revocable trust is that state probate law might require the estate executor to give notice to everyone who would have been eligible to inherit if there had not been a will. Before the estate can be processed, the executor might have to construct a family tree and prove the demise or divorce of extended family members.
A better solution in a state without a streamlined probate process for singles is the revocable living trust. Property in the trust avoids probate, and the terms of the trust determine what is done with the property. A will should be prepared for any assets that aren’t in the living trust and don’t avoid probate, but they should be a small portion of the estate.
If a revocable trust is used, it is important to transfer ownership of property to the trust. Too often people have trusts drafted then fail to transfer title of their homes, cars, financial accounts, and other property to the trust. They have “empty trusts.”
Another key estate planning issue for singles is the choice of a successor trustee for the revocable living trust when there is no spouse or adult child to take the role. There might be friends or family members who can assume the role. Otherwise, it might be best to select a trusted advisor such as an accountant or attorney and have the trust or estate incur the cost involved.
Likewise, a single person should carefully consider who should be executor of the estate and discuss that role with the person. Otherwise, you don’t know who might bring your estate to the probate court and who might be appointed executor.
Beneficiaries need to be named for assets that avoid probate and aren’t controlled by a living trust. Such assets include IRAs, retirement plans, annuities, and life insurance. Singles need to complete their beneficiary designation forms, keep copies of the forms, and update the documents when appropriate. It’s important to let the beneficiaries and estate executor know about these decisions and where the documents can be located.
Singles do not have the advantage of the marital deduction to reduce either the estate or gift tax. An unmarried person can avoid gift taxes on lifetime gifts to people by using the annual gift tax exclusion, the unlimited exclusions for gifts of education and medical expenses, and the individual lifetime estate and gift tax exemption.
The estate tax exemption is available to the extent it isn’t used on lifetime gifts. The lack of a marital deduction matters only to fairly-wealthy unmarried seniors, but for them it does limit the after-tax amount that can be left to noncharitable beneficiaries.
The annual gift tax exclusion, which is $15,000 in 2021, can be used to make gifts to anyone. Those without children often use it to benefit nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends. The beneficiaries don’t have to be related for the gifts to qualify for the exclusion.
Care must be taken when making lifetime gifts. It often is better to make gifts early as long as sufficient assets are retained to support the standard of living. But the objects of affection might change over time, especially when one is unmarried, so if lifetime gifts are made be sure the recipients of the largess are likely to be permanent objects of affection.
For many single seniors a legacy of charitable giving is more important than for many marrieds. Single people without children often make charities significant primary or contingent beneficiaries of their estate. Otherwise, there are scenarios in which a lot of the estate could go to distant relatives.
In addition, singles can make use of lifetime charitable giving strategies to generate income tax savings and income during their lifetimes, reduce the size of their estates, and benefit charities. Charitable remainder trusts, charitable gift annuities, and similar strategies can be more important to singles than to others.
Social Security and pensions leave few options. Social Security does not allow designation of a beneficiary. Only a spouse, former spouse, and children can benefit from your earnings record. Many employer pension plan annuities have similar restrictions.
If the single person is contributing to someone’s support and wishes for that support to continue after death, the only options are to buy life insurance or have other assets to leave the person.
Unmarried seniors might have to update their estate plans more frequently than married counterparts, because their situations might change more frequently. It is especially important to maintain current beneficiary designations for IRAs and other financial accounts.
The unmarried population is increasing, and it faces unique estate planning challenges. These individuals should be sure to work with an estate planning expert who understands their special situations.Follow me on Twitter. Check out my website or some of my other work here.

Based inside Mindanao State University’s Iligan Institute of Technology, FAB LAB Mindanao is an access center for entrepreneurs and researchers to build their product prototypes. FAB LAB offers entrepreneurs tools that include 3D printers, 3D scanners, laser cutters, precision mills, embroidery machines, power tools, lathes, and conference systems.
By offering entrepreneurs a collaboration hub to design and build their products, FAB LAB provides an avenue for STEM innovations to become realities. But many of these entrepreneurs lack the training they need to make their ideas into viable businesses, explained Lemuel Clark Velasco, manager of FAB LAB. Specifically when it comes to science innovations, Clark said most ideas remain in the world of academia but rarely make the jump into a commercialized product.
As part of the work that it is doing, FAB LAB is also bridging the gap between science and business in the Philippines. FAB LAB offers a variety of business training programs for its science entrepreneurs, and facilitates collaborations between science and business innovators in order to build successful STEM ventures.
But Clark said there is more that can be done to support these entrepreneurs, which is why FAB LAB joined the GIST Network in 2019 as an Innovation Hub.
“Being part of the GIST Network as an I-Hub has given us the opportunity to be part of a community of problem solvers and implement similar solutions to similar entrepreneurship problems,” said Clark. “As an innovation center, it is important that we learn from what other innovation centers are also doing, and the GIST Network of I-Hubs give FAB LAB Mindanao the ease of access to these innovation centers as well as share how we are also implementing our programs.”

This vintage Baluch rug was handwoven at the Afghan/Iran border during the second quarter of the 20th century.
It is woven in warm earth tones of pumpkin, chocolate, indigo and a soft aubergine with pops of white acting as an accent color. The main design is a common Baluch motif of two-quartered leaves in a diagonal pattern. The main border is composed of the "horse's tail" motif, which became popular with Baluch weavers in the late 19th century. The minor borders are varied between floral designs and classic sawtooth and turret designs, outlined in white.
In excellent condition, signs of wear consistent with age. Pile is low, with a sturdy handle. Original kilim ends are still intact.

Fainting spells can happen for several reasons. This condition can occur as an isolated case. Other times, it is the result of an underlying health condition. While not a serious medical concern, fainting may be considered a cause for worry if it becomes a frequent occurrence due to an ulterior illness. There are also cases when it is necessary to bring a person that has fainted to the hospital via private ambulance service
. Read on to find out more about fainting spells, and the proper first-aid treatment
that you should do in the event of it.
What is Fainting?
Fainting, known medically as syncope, refers to the sudden and brief loss of consciousness that happens due to the brain’s lack of oxygen access. Fainting spells may go for a few seconds to a few minutes. Fainting is more often referred to as “passing out.”
What causes fainting?
Fainting can occur as a result of different triggers. These could include:
- Fear, anxiety, and other forms of emotional stress
- Intense pain
- A sudden drop in blood pressure as a result of shock
- Prolonged standing
- Shifting from a sitting position to a standing position too quickly
- Participating in strenuous activities in hot temperatures
- Drug intake and excessive alcohol consumption
- Heart problems, anemia, low blood pressure, and other medical conditions
Symptoms of Fainting
A person who is about to faint may feel dizzy, lightheaded, and nauseous. Other people can hear the sounds fading away, and illustrate the experience as “blacking out.” Other symptoms may include:
- Paleness of the face
- Restlessness and anxiety
Risk Factors for Fainting
Fainting can happen either as an isolated event or the result of another condition or circumstance. Your chances of fainting are higher if you have any of the following conditions:
- Heart disease
- Atherosclerosis or arterial plaque
- Arrhythmia or the condition of irregular heartbeat
- Panic attacks
- Chronic lung diseases, like emphysema
Furthermore, circumstances such as taking medications for certain illnesses may also make you prone to fainting. These medications may cause your blood pressure levels to go down, triggering a fainting spell. These medications are often used to treat the following conditions:
- High blood pressure
Treatment for Fainting
When someone faints, it is important to know what you can do to improve their blood circulation so that oxygen can easily reach their brain.
First-Aid Treatment for Fainting
Here is what you can do as a first-aid response to someone who has fainted. If the person regains consciousness:
- Encourage them to sit with their head placed between their knees. This position helps in stimulating blood flow to the head.
- Loosen any tight clothing, which may include collars, belts, and buttons.
- Make sure that the person is either lying down or sitting for a good 15 minutes in a location that is cool, quiet, and comfortable.
- Have them drink a cool glass of water as this can also help.
A fainting situation can be an emergency in the following circumstances:
- If the person isn’t breathing
- If the person does not regain consciousness after a few minutes
- If the person falls badly and gets bleeding injuries
- If the person is pregnant
- If the person has no known history of fainting
- If the person is over 50
- If the person has been experiencing chest pains or has a history of heart diseases
- If the person starts having convulsions
- If the person experiences speech or vision problems
- If the person remains in a confused state for longer than expected
- If the person is unable to move their limbs and extremities
In the event of any of these circumstances, call emergency services immediately. It may be required to perform CPR as you await help.
Prevention for Fainting
There is no single known cause as to why fainting occurs. However, understanding what triggers fainting spells is crucial in its prevention especially if you have a history of fainting. In retrospect, here are some extra precautions you can take to prevent the likelihood of fainting.
- Always keep in mind to get up slowly from a sitting or lying-down position. This allows your blood vessels to adjust.
- Stay hydrated. Maintain your hydration levels during the day. Drink plenty of liquids, especially when before, during, and after participating in exercise or any physical activity, and in hot weather.
- Try to avoid skipping meals.

For all silver pieces, yes.
For rose gold and gold pieces:
Earrings and pendants: Yes.
Rings and chains: No, but you can wash hands carefully. Please note that the damage is mostly caused by scratching when your rings come in contact with abrasive surfaces. With rings and chains having the most contact and in addition to variables such as loofahs and abrasive shower gels or shampoos, we don’t recommend wearing our gold and rose gold rings or chains in the shower. However, unlike traditionally plated jewelry, our gold and rose gold rings and chains will survive the occasional shower or dip in the pool.

Yes, yes, yes. Ready-Made was created with the sensitive wearer in mind. We only use biocompatible materials that don’t harm living tissue. In fact, the materials we use are relied on extensively in the medical field as surgical tools and implants. We need to note that all stainless steel including our 316L stainless steel is composed of 5% nickel, but 316L is still certified as medical grade and biocompatible as the nickel is incorporated into the metal in a way that causes no skin reactions or harm. Less than 0.1% of the population can still have reactions to stainless steel, but you would know if this is true for you as something as ordinary as buttons on jeans would have caused an allergic reaction.
Ready-Made has the health of the planet as a priority. Our core metal, stainless steel, is one of the most reused and recyclable metals on the planet, with more than an 85% strength retention rate. Our high-tech color plating processes release no fumes into the environment and leave no residue or liquids behind. We also don’t rely on any chemicals to change the coating color of our pieces, relying instead on wavelengths. We use 100% recyclable cellulose envelopes and mailers, 100% recycled paper for our cards and boxes, and have moved away from relying on plastic packaging to transport and store our inventory.
Every manufacturer that we collaborate with is ISO certified, meaning that they meet certain standards in occupational health and safety, environmental friendliness and compliance, and quality assurance and efficiency. Our founding team also periodically visits each factory for internal audits. They are also in direct communication with all factory managers. Our hazard-free manufacturing processes neither release fumes nor leave behind residues.
We don’t use traditional metals for three main reasons:
1. Transparency. There’s a lot of talk about fair mined metals, but not a lot being done to prove this transparency. Getting to the source of gold and gemstones including recycled and reclaimed gold was a hurdle we weren’t able to overcome with certainty when we were starting Ready-Made and thinking about how to offer quality jewelry made with integrity. Vendors giving us their word didn’t feel enough.
2. The traditional manufacturing process for gold plating isn’t eco-friendly. Due to the nature of soft metals, traditional processes like wet plating and heat are utilized, and that can not only cause damage to the environment, but can also be harmful to factory workers.
3. We want to take the guesswork out of alloys (mixed metals). The materials we use - surgical stainless steel and titanium nitrite - are used in the medical field as surgical tools and implants. For the most part, our tissues don’t reject these two materials. With gold, silver, and brass, there’s always that risk of these alloys being mixed with metals that your body isn’t compatible with, leading to irritation.
We want to offer something that is timeless, looks like fine jewelry (thanks to our smooth-as-butter plating and detailed metalwork), skin-safe, sustainable, environmentally friendly, and transparent — all at a more universal price point that is comparable in price to mass manufactured, gold plated and costume jewelry.
This chain is beautiful and great to layer with pendants and other chains. I bought it in 18" but it was a bit shorter than that, around 17.5". It is super dainty and great for every day use. Note that the color is a bit darker than sterling silver, but since this chain is so thin it is easy to layer it with the other metal.
lovely with my mini circle pendant. so shiny and the weight is nice, you can tell it’s good quality. looks way more expensive than it is. so excited to add this to my every day jewelry. absolutely recommend.
Oval Link Chain - Silver
Love my new necklace. High quality at an affordable price. This was my first piece and it definitely won’t be my last!
I asked for 4 necklaces for Christmas this past year, and I love them! They are still in the same great condition that they were in when I first got them and I wear them everyday. Love, love, love this company!
absolutely perfect and the price was amaze
I really like this chain. Packaging was adorable! My only complaint is that it is a little dark, doesn’t have that sterling silver look that I thought it was going to. I matched it with another silver chain I have and it was a darker shade up close!
I like the chain, the only thing I would like to see is the little disc near the end of the chain removed. I doesn’t allow for easy threading of charms.

I am very fortunate to be able to live in one of the most diverse places on the West Coast of Scotland. I can go for a walk close by and not meet anyone. The views are stunning and my eyes can wonder off far and wide into the distance.
I take so much inspiration and positive energy from nature and surrounding landscape. Enjoy the signs of spring. The amazing variety of the Island wild-flowers. Vivid bird song.
The Island landscape brings so much inspiration for my paintings and artwork.
I will continue to share those motivational images to help you to get through this difficult time. Might inspire you to visit when is safe to do so. Absence makes the heart grow founder. Follow the #MullandIonaMemories for more inspiration if you are missing Scotland
Do what you can to process those feelings that you have. We all can feel anxious and in need of peace. With more time to spare you might be able to focus on an interest.
During my adventure with art I’ve come across resin. Fascinated by it’s fluidity and the 3D effect that it creates. I’ve started exploring it further. I am having a lot of fun and feeling excited because I don’t know where this medium is going to take me next. It’s so diverse.
Going back to this gorgeous wild-flowers that I’ve picked on my walks. I wanted to encapsulate this in resin to preserve their beauty. After some experimentation I’ve discovered that all of them have kept their colour shape and form after being dried and pressed. Hurray!
I love to encapsulate this into floral coasters and artwork for you to enjoy for years to come. Even made some floral resin jewellery but that’s another story.

The "Bystander Effect" Isn't Unique to Humans
The "Bystander Effect" Isn't Unique to Humans
Complete the form below and we will email you a PDF version of "The "Bystander Effect" Isn't Unique to Humans"
A rat is less likely to help a trapped companion if it is with other rats that aren't helping, according to new research from the University of Chicago that showed the social psychological theory of the "bystander effect" in humans is present in these long-tailed rodents.
The study, titled "The Bystander Effect in Rats," also demonstrated that in the presence of other potential helper rats, rats are more, rather than less, likely to help. Whether helping is facilitated or suppressed depends on the circumstances rather than on personal temperament or morals, a finding with implications for human society. The research, published in the July 8 issue of Science Advances, builds off previous research on rat empathy.
In 2011, Peggy Mason, PhD, professor of neurobiology and senior author of the study, and her UChicago team of researchers found that rats consistently freed trapped companions, even saving a bit of chocolate for them, and this behavior was driven by a rat version of empathy. A subsequent study showed that rats treated with anti-anxiety medication are less likely to free a trapped peer because they do not feel its anxiety. In another study, researchers found that rats only freed trapped rat strains that they had previous social experience with.
The roots of the classic bystander effect date back to 1964, when Catherine "Kitty" Genovese was murdered in a crowded residential neighborhood in Queens, New York. An account published in the New York Times reported that 38 bystanders saw the murder but did not intervene. Though this story was later proven inaccurate, it inspired psychologists Bibb Latané and John Darley to investigate why so many people would fail to help.
The pair tested human subjects alone and in the presence of "confederate" bystanders -- people who were part of the research team and were instructed not to help -- as they confronted a variety of experimental scenarios with someone (an actor) in distress. Latané and Darley consistently observed that subjects were far less likely to help in the presence of non-helping confederates than they were when tested alone. This phenomenon, referred to as the bystander effect, is now a pillar in psychology, included in every introductory textbook and class. The mechanism for the classic bystander effect is thought to be a diffusion of responsibility whereby people reason that they need not act because others in a group will.
First author John Havlik was a UChicago undergraduate in Mason's laboratory, when the topic of the bystander effect came up during a lab meeting.
"My students had been bugging me to do this experiment for years," said Mason. "But it wasn't until John came along and would not let the idea go that we took the plunge."
Havlik, now a student at the Yale School of Medicine, spearheaded experiments to examine whether rats, which lack complex reasoning skills, would show a classical bystander effect.
The research team used their trapped rat paradigm in combination with rats that were made into "confederates" by administering an antianxiety drug that made them indifferent to another rat's distress, ensuring that they would not help. The team found that rats tested with confederates were less likely to help than those tested alone -- a bystander effect in rats. Digging deeper, they saw that the presence of confederates blocked reinforcement for helping.
"It's worse to have a non-responsive audience than to be alone," Mason said. "The rats try helping, but it's just not a rewarding experience because the other rats don't appear to care. It's as though the rat was saying to himself, 'I helped yesterday and no one cared. Not doing that again.' "
Mason and her team then wanted to know how the presence of untreated rats affected the helping behavior. Counter to the prediction of the bystander effect, duos and trios of rats actually were more likely to help than solo rats.
"At first, I thought the experiment had failed," Havlik said. "But after doing more research into human studies, we realized that behavior has actually been mirrored in people, too."
In research published last year, an analysis of surveillance videos revealed that groups of bystanders helped in more than 90% of violent encounters.
"The reason we see these patterns of helpfulness goes deeper than the lessons we learned in kindergarten about being nice to each other," said study co-author Maura Jacobi, MD, a 2020 graduate of the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine and co-first author of the study. "This is a phenomenon that's not exclusive to humans."

- Specifications: Numbers always help you measure the quality of a product in a quantitative way. We try to find products of higher specifications, but with the right balance.
- Customer Ratings: The hundreds of customers using the Torx Screwdriver Set before you won’t say wrong, would they? Better ratings mean better service experienced by a good number of people.
- Customer Reviews: Like ratings, customer reviews give you actual and trustworthy information, coming from real-world consumers about the Torx Screwdriver Set they used.
- Seller Rank: Now, this is interesting! You don’t just need a good Torx Screwdriver Set, you need a product that is trendy and growing in sales. It serves two objectives. Firstly, the growing number of users indicates the product is good. Secondly, the manufacturers will hopefully provide better quality and after-sales service because of that growing number.
- Value For The Money: They say you get what you pay for. Cheap isn’t always good. But that doesn’t mean splashing tons of money on a flashy but underserving product is good either. We try to measure how much value for the money you can get from your Torx Screwdriver Set before putting them on the list.
- Durability: Durability and reliability go hand to hand. A robust and durable Torx Screwdriver Set will serve you for months and years to come.
- Availability: Products come and go, new products take the place of the old ones. Probably some new features were added, some necessary modifications were done. What’s the point of using a supposedly good Torx Screwdriver Set if that’s no longer continued by the manufacturer? We try to feature products that are up-to-date and sold by at least one reliable seller, if not several.
- Negative Ratings: Yes, we take that into consideration too! When we pick the top rated Torx Screwdriver Set on the market, the products that got mostly negative ratings get filtered and discarded.

Despite my aching ankle and Jack’s wobbly knee we undertook the hike up the Fort trail on Magnetic Island. It wasn’t a tough hike until the uneven steps at the top, and oh, what glorious views! It’s funny how those of us who live at sea level crave the high aspects once we reach land with any altitude.
The fort was built in 1942 to protect against attack from the Tasman Sea. Most of it’s gone now except for vague ruins of various buildings and the gun emplacements, missing the guns. It’s a lovely forest, and there are supposedly koalas in the eucalyptus trees. We didn’t see any that day.
It was great to stretch our legs a bit but we’re continuing our push north despite the uncooperative wind. Cairns awaits.

Recruiting new staff is a great way to grow your team and build a stronger business, but what’s the best way to find the people you need? How do you avoid the pitfalls of making expensive recruitment mistakes that you might later regret?
The first mistake that many people make when starting a recruitment process is not putting enough time and effort into compiling a job advert. When you’re doing this, you should look at the advert from the perspective of potential employees. Whether they are searching online or looking at printed job adverts, people looking for a job typically start with two elements in a job search: job title and location.
Job Title – the title of a job advert could be the only information that a potential employee reads about your vacancy. This means that you need to use multiple words in the title of the job posting, so that there are more opportunities for candidates to find the advert when searching online job sites. If you’re using printed adverts, you should still make the job title as long and descriptive as you can.
Location – you need to show the country, region, county and city or town of the location of the position you’re looking to fill. Many people looking for a new job look within a 30-minute commute of where they live, whether they’re searching online or looking at printed adverts.
Once you’ve written a clear job title and location, here are the next elements of the advert to consider:
Summary of the job – the first paragraph of the advert should encourage people to apply for the job. Make it compelling and interesting rather than just a list of tasks.
Job description – this should set out the responsibilities of the job, along with the qualifications and competencies required for the role. It should outline the essential and the desirable skills and the competencies, as bulleted lists. This will make it easier for suitable applicants to recognise the match between their own attributes and the requirements for the role.
Job specifics – you need to include important information about whether or not the vacancy is full or part time, the provisional start date, the salary range, company benefits, the formats in which you will accept CVs and the application deadline.
Contact information – it is good practice to include as many contact details as possible. Include your company website, email address (with a real contact name, rather than info@) and the direct phone number and postal address for a member of the recruitment team.
Unique job code – every job advert, whether online or in print media, should have a unique reference number to allow you to track the activity generated by it and see which advertising is most effective.
A Word on Layout for Job Adverts
The content of any job advert should flow in a logical order and contain line breaks to help people to find the relevant information quickly and easily. You should place general information about the company at the end of the advert to avoid confusing the search engines (for online adverts) and so that the critical content for which candidates are looking can be found easily and quickly.
Where Should You Advertise?
- Printed Recruitment Adverts
The growth of online commercial job boards led to predictions about the demise of job advertising in traditional print media, such as national and local newspapers, trade journals and the specialist press. Many national newspapers have either launched their own online job listings or purchased a job board, while local print media often advertise vacancies on aggregated advertising provider sites. The job-board sector has taken over a significant proportion of recruitment advertising revenue and print media no longer dominates as most recruiters’ preferred job advertising channel.
However, depending on the role you are looking to fill, advertising your vacancies in traditional print media has some advantages over online job advertising:
- A printed job advert has the potential for a longer shelf-life than an online one as it can remain visible to a prospective applicant for as long as they keep the publication. For specialist magazines, this can be weeks or months.
- Print advertising offers scope for you to be more creative with your campaigns in comparison with most online advertising, which often consists of little more than blocks of text with logos or limited use of images.
- A positive perception of newspaper job advertising remains, with potential applicants believing that a company that uses print media is serious about recruiting for the role.
- A recruitment campaign in a respected publication can provide your company with a good opportunity to promote and build your employer brand.
- For certain types of recruitment, such as a graduate recruitment campaign, a printed brochure with colourful imagery and great content can help to promote your brand above and beyond the immediate recruitment campaign.
The main disadvantage of relying on print media for recruitment is the cost. Print media is significantly more expensive than online channels and is based on the advertising space acquired. There could be extra costs for design, graphics and copywriting. Think carefully about where is best for you to promote your job vacancies, based on where your ideal candidates will look. You need to put your adverts where the highest number of the right sort of people will see them.
- Using Your Company Website
Many jobseekers research potential employers by visiting their company website to find background information on your operations, products, services, financial performance, locations, press coverage and job opportunities. Ideally, your company should have a dedicated job section within its website.
- Online Job Boards
Promoting vacancies on commercial job boards has several advantages compared to advertising in other places, including:
- You can update the content of the job advert immediately yourself
- Job board adverts are visible online around the clock and from any location
- They can bring you a large, diverse audience across multiple generations and socio-economic sectors
- They cost much less than traditional print advertising. A typical job board advert costs from £50 to £300 for 30 days’ advertising (at the time of writing)
- Online adverts can deliver quick responses from applicants, speeding up the recruitment process.
There are some disadvantages associated with job board advertising. A job board posting may generate a high response rate from potential candidates and it could take substantial time and resources for you to process candidate responses. Make sure you have staff ready and able to handle all the applications.
- Social Media
Social media recruitment involves you using social and professional digital platforms to promote vacancies and enhance your recruitment process. Typically, social media recruitment supplements, rather than replaces, other ways of attracting candidates.
The most common way for companies to use social media is to promote themselves as an employer, either by driving applicants to their company or careers website, or by developing the company’s page on a social media platform such as Facebook or LinkedIn.
Direct job advertising is another popular way in which you can use social media when hiring staff. The most common approach is to use paid-for, as opposed to free, job advertising. The ability that social media provides for companies to make lasting connections with successful and unsuccessful candidates makes it a good tool for attracting candidates and recruitment in the long term.
There are many ways in which you can search for the best candidates for your job vacancies. Take the time to plan your recruitment campaign and write the best advert that you can, so that you can place it where the best candidates will see it and you will have the best chance of finding the people you are looking for.

Hangzhou, China, March 21, 2019 – Tmall Global today unveiled two key initiatives that further Alibaba’s plans to bring $200 billion worth of international goods into China over the next five years and help businesses of all sizes enter the China market.
The initiatives – the Centralized Import Procurement (CIP) and Tmall Overseas Fulfillment (TOF) – are import solutions offered by Tmall Global to help international brands accelerate their entry into China and capitalize on hot demand for high-quality products.
As the biggest cross-border platform in China, Tmall Global not only helps brand open up flagship stores on the platform, but also offers direct import services that can help bring international goods, from companies of all sizes sell into the Chinese market, benefiting Chinese consumers with an expanded choice of imported products.
“These new initiatives on Tmall Global, supported by the entire Alibaba ecosystem and benefiting both current and future partners, are needed enhancements as we strive to meet the rising demand of Chinese consumers for high-quality international products,” said Alvin Liu, General Manager of Tmall Import-Export, at the Tmall Global 2019 Global Partners Summit.
At the China International Import Expo in November last year, Alibaba pledged to bring $200 billion worth of international goods into China over the next five years through its platforms.
Alibaba unveiled the CIP program today as a key part of Alibaba’s new retail business. By leveraging the six procurement centers Alibaba has set up across the globe, the program sources imported goods for all the online and offline outlets within the Alibaba ecosystem, including technology-driven grocery chain Freshippo (also known as “Hema” in Chinese), Tmall Supermarket and Intime Department Store. The program is a quick and low-risk way for international brands to enter China, allowing them to reach the nearly 700 million active users on Alibaba platforms.
TOF is a consignment solution that allows brands to place a small batch of products at one of the TOF centers to be sold on the Tmall Global platform. This gives businesses around the world a chance to try out and fine tune their product assortment before making a full entry into China. TOF centers are currently available in Japan, South Korea and the US, with plans to expand into Europe later this year.
To support these new initiatives, Alibaba’s smart logistics network, Cainiao, will continue to expand its network of bonded warehouses in China, with an aim to triple its total size to three million square meters in three years.
“Over the years, Tmall Global has added a full suite of innovative and value-added services to help overseas brands succeed in the China market, including plugging them in to the entire Alibaba economy. The consumer insight from our ecosystem provides Tmall Global partners a complete view of their customers’ engagements even if they do not have operations in China. These market entry and in-market expansion programs are our key differentiators and have created unique benefits for international brands,” said Liu.
Tmall Global data shows China’s demands for imported goods is gaining strong traction across age groups, regions and categories. Those born after 2000, or “Generation Z,” is the fastest-growing consumer group on the platform. The platform is attracting more shoppers in less developed regions, and Tmall Global has successfully propelled the growth of three categories: anti-hair loss products, beauty-from-within products such as collagen drinks and trendy footwear in 2018.
China’s “Generation Z” is also fueling demand for pet products and beauty devices. In 2018, the number of pet-related brands on Tmall Global doubled from the previous year, and sales of beauty devices on the platform also quadrupled from a year earlier.
Recognizing young Chinese consumers’ love for content, Tmall Global will continue to offer brands a raft of content-generating tools to boost brand awareness. By tapping into Alibaba’s own digital-media channels, such as Taobao Livestream, brands can directly speak to Chinese consumer through multiple touchpoints, including livestream services, videos and testimonials by popular influencers and key opinion leaders.
According to Chinese data-analytics firm Analysys, Tmall Global is the biggest cross-border platform in China. The platform offers Chinese consumers over 20,000 overseas brands and over 4,000 product categories from 77 countries and regions.
About Tmall Global
Launched in 2014, Tmall Global (www.tmall.hk), is an extension of Alibaba Group’s Tmall platform that addresses increasing Chinese consumer demand for international products and brands. It is the premier platform for overseas brands and retailers to reach Chinese consumers, build brand awareness and gain valuable consumer insights in forming their overall China strategy, without the need for physical operations in China. According to Analysys, for fiscal year 2018, Tmall Global was the number one import e-commerce platform in China based on transaction value.

According to the Salt Lake Deseret News, the Ogden Mall had seen better days in the 1980s and 1990s. By 1999, Nordstrom had left and J.C. Penney was packing. Major developers had said no to the city and that the mall had to be torn down. The city then bought the land for $6 million and had the mall torn down by 2002.
The center of the rebirth is a giant recreation center that includes restaurants, bowling, rock climbing, boarding, surfing and the works.
In the summer of 2007, Utah Jazz owner Larry Miller’s Megaplex 13 at The Junction opened. This was Miller’s fifth Utah Megaplex. The Ogden Standard-Examiner said the cost was $11 to $15 million. With total seating listed as 2,460, the auditorium sizes range from 120 to 590 seats. Other services include auditorium rentals, private screenings, catering and rooms for group meetings and parties.

Capturing authentic evidence of learning and providing feedback to learners is a foundation of Headrush.
Learners have always been able to submit evidence into tasks, so that evidence could be reviewed and assessed by the advisor. However, keeping track of what evidence a learner was currently working on, what needed revising and what is considered complete wasn’t always easy.
With the new release of Task Workflows in Headrush, Learners and Advisors have a much more streamlined way to manage the lifecycle of task, evidence and feedback.
The new workflow feature is automatically available on all tasks, new and existing, that require evidence.
Tasks in the Workflow start out as To Do.
Once the Learner begins work, the Task will be marked In progress.
When the learner adds evidence to the task, they mark the status as Submitted, indicating that the evidence is ready for advisor review.
The learner can view the status of all their tasks in a convenient Kanban style card layout independently from the Task Board, meaning the Task Board can be organized in whatever structure is best for the learning scenario.
The Advisor can view the status of all evidence in the module, and drill down into specific learner and evidence details.
When the Advisor wants the learner to revise their evidence, they can mark it as “Needs Review,” supporting mentorship and feedback loops with learners.
When all revisions are added, the Advisor can mark the task complete.
With Task Workflow, headrush supports deeper and more targeted feedback loops, giving both Learners and Advisors a better way to see and manage the status of their tasks to support agile learning.
In addition, the introduction of task workflows sets the stage for some exciting future features aimed at always helping learners and advisors stay focused on what matters.

Northern Ireland got the Euro 2020 qualifiers off to an ideal opening with a two-goal defeat of Estonia at the National Football Stadium at Windsor Park
Both sides got off to a promising start with Niall McGinn having the first effort of note after a couple of minutes only to drag the ball wide at the back post from a Stuart Dallas long throw while, for the visitors, Mattias Käit headed the wrong side of the upright after connecting with a corner from the right.
Dallas and McGinn combined again on 12 minutes down the right flank before the former delivered the ball into the path of Paddy McNair, but the midfielder sees his cross into the box easily claimed at his near post by keeper Sergei Lepmets
Northern Ireland continued to create, with George Saville firing a free-kick straight at the wall after a quarter-of-an-hour before McNair, with perhaps the chance of the first half, headed over from close range after Jordan Jones found him with a cross.
Michael O'Neill's side then had penalty appeals waved away just before the half-hour mark when Jamal Lewis went down under the challenge of Nikita Baranov but Croatian referee Ivan Bebek wasn't convinced and waved play on.
Then, not long after that, McGinn whipped in a superb cross for Craig Cathcart but his header was easily dealt with by Lepmets.
Another opening followed a few minutes before the break, with this time Jones pulling an attempt wide after McNair flicked on a Dallas throw.
With no changes to either camp at the break, the chances for Northern Ireland continued with McGinn seeing an early thumping shot blocked.
However, the breakthrough the home crowd craved eventually arrived four minutes before the hour. Kyle Lafferty played a large part in the goal, laying off a Jones cross into the path of McGinn who duly directed the ball past Lepmets from around 15 yards out.
It could have been 2-0 on 64 minutes. Another excellent Jones delivery evaded the Estonian keeper but McNair, almost unnoticed, crept in only to just fail to divert the header into the net from close range.
But the visitors posed a threat of their own soon after when skipper Karol Mets delivered a dangerous corner for Käit but he could only smash the ball over at the far post.
Northern Ireland's insurance goal arrived with a quarter-of-an-hour remaining. Mets was adjudged to have used high feet on Saville prompting the referee to point to the spot on this occasion with captain Steven Davis duly stepping up to clinically fire his 12th international goal past Lepmets.
Not content with just two goals, Northern Ireland pushed for a third.
Saville fired straight at Lepmets on 83 minutes from a McNair pass, followed swiftly by a powerful Josh Magennis drive who then tried his luck from 25-yards not long after that.
But, in the end, those earlier strikes from McGinn and Davis proved more than enough to kick off the campaign on a winning note.
Elsewhere in the group, the Netherlands swept to a four-goal defeat of Belarus in Rotterdam.

Evans, Cathcart, Lewis, Davis, McNair, Saville, McGinn, Jones, Lafferty subs McGovern (not used), Hazard (not used), McLaughlin (replaced McGinn 84), Ballard (not used), Flanagan (not used), Hughes (not used), Thompson (not used), Ferguson (replaced Jones 81), Smyth (not used), Magennis (replaced Lafferty 76), Washington (not used), Boyce (not used)

Mark your calenders! The contest is coming! The contest is coming! This year's event will be held on Sunday, August 5th in the field next to Lents own Belmont Goats! If you don't know where the goats live, they reside in the field next to the Boys and Girls Club on 92nd ave, just north of Zoigl Haus Brewpub.
We have some fun new ideas to try out with this year's contest, including selling our beauty contest shirts for charity! I'm working on the design now, but we had so much interest in the shirts our volunteers were wearing (I got crazy and had shirts made for us all) that we want to try out raising money for some worthwhile cause (to be determined soon, I promise).
We are also messing around with having TWO categories of hens this year: Kids entry and Adults entry. Kids hens are often dressed (or dyed) fancy but are normal backyard hens, while the adults often have some downright fancy hens. It seems like it might be fair to have them judged separately.
So those are our developments for this year. Hope you all enjoy the changes and want to buy some shirts to support a cause (we gotta figure this one out, seriously)!!

Master Gordon W. White began training in Taekwondo in 1983 and became a student of Blue Wave founder Grandmaster Twing in 1986. In 1987 Master White trained in Korea for two months. After returning he won the 1988 AAU National Taekwondo Championships.
"I was made to feel that I had tremendous potential and that by practicing Taekwondo and dedicating myself to it, I would be successful in anything I wanted to pursue," Master White said of his training.
In 1991 Master White moved to Korea and attended Yonsei University as an exchange student. During his year abroad, he trained with several established university, high school and professional Taekwondo teams.
He is a former U.S. National Team member and international medalist. Between 1993 and 1996, he was one of the United States Taekwondo Union's Light Weight competitors, representing the US National team at such events as the World Games, World Cup, and the Japan Open. Some of his career accomplishments include placing 3rd at both the World Cup and the Japan Open in 1996.
He opened Burlington Blue Wave in downtown Burlington in 2000 and now has more than 80 students.
"Teaching has made me understand Taekwondo far better than if I had just remained a practitioner," Master White said. "The satisfaction comes in seeing the school grow, watching the student progress and the competitor's performance improve."

The books I won from Baen thanks to being runner up in the Jim Baen Memorial Short Story Competition have been varied and of different genres, but the one common thread that seems to run through them is that they are meant to be entertainment first. This isn’t to say that they don’t have deep moral and political currents running through them, but those are secondary to telling a good story.
So, literature as it’s meant to be, by good writers who know how to reach readers.
But every once in a while, one will be so fun to read it just goes over the top. A recent example was Freehold: Resistance, and another is today’s subject, Larry Correia’s Target Rich Environment – Volume 2.
Despite his NYT bestselling credentials, Correia is a relatively new writer to me. I was looking forward to this collection mainly on the strength of his story in Freehold: Resistance, but I didn’t really know what to expect. That story, which I enjoyed, could very easily have been an outlier, and the rest of his work unenjoyable.
Fortunately, that isn’t the case. Target Rich Environment is a collection of Correia’s short fiction set in several different settings. All of the ones in this book (as you can probably guess from the title) focus on combat, and they’re all high-powered weapon-focused romps. Pure energy, but well-written and with characters who are truly three-dimensional.
I went through them quickly, enjoying the ass-kicking. When I reached the final novella, I thought I had a pretty good grip on Correia’s style, and an understanding about why he sells so many books.
And that novella, “A Murder of Manatees”, was very different from the rest. Building on the action story style already expressed in the rest of the book, this one is a comic romp (with violence, lots and lots of violence). It actually reminded me a bit of Robert Asprin’s Phule series, but with over-the-top violence. It’s a great combo, and I laughed a lot.
So a very good book with a twist at the end, and one I would recommend without hesitation. Fun, fun stuff.
Gustavo Bondoni is a novelist and short story writer whose latest novel is entitled Lost Island Rampage and, once you know that there are monsters and criminals in it, you’re probably smart enough to figure out what it’s like. It’s also fun, and you can check it out here.

Bushnell? Announces Sponsorhip Agreement With The Golf Coaches Association Of America
Overland Park, Kan. ? Bushnell, maker of the No. 1 rangefinder on the PGA TOUR, announced a sponsorship agreement with the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA).
On the heels of the decision by the USGA and R&A to allow rangefinders by local rule effective January 1, 2006, Bushnell and the GCAA will team up to allow scholastic golfers the opportunity to obtain a laser rangefinder through their coach. Bushnell?s rangefinders are believed to speed up play by accurately providing distance to targets anywhere on the course.
The GCAA has members in the NCAA Division I, II, and III, the NAIA, NJCAA and high school golf programs.
"We?re proud to be involved with the GCAA," says Jason Seeman, National Sales Manager Golf.
"We believe that by providing the opportunity for all golf teams to obtain a Bushnell laser rangefinder, those teams will have a competitive advantage over teams that do not own a Bushnell device."
"With USGA approval, the use of range-finding devices will have a tremendous impact on college golf - especially pace of play," said GCAA Executive Director Gregg Grost. "Bushnell?s range finders will benefit all college players and coaches."
Bushnell laser rangefinders have changed the way golfers assess distances, ultimately improving performance. Bushnell, the number one choice of professional golfers and caddies, offers a full range of laser rangefinders. The new Bushnell PinSeeker? was specifically designed for golf and with its unique selective targeting mode, locating the flag has never been easier. The Bushnell PinSeeker can also provide distance to carry hazards, distance to the bend in a dogleg, or distance to a bunker with a simple shoot and click. The PinSeeker does not require a locating reflector device to be installed on the flagstick and is ready to start obtaining useful, accurate distances to any object right out of the box.
Bushnell? Performance Optics is a global manufacturer and marketer of branded consumer products based in Overland Park, Kansas. Bushnell Performance Optics is a leading supplier of high quality sports optics including binoculars, telescopes, spotting scopes, riflescopes, night vision, laser rangefinders, speed guns, GPS, compasses, ski goggles, ski helmets, sunglasses and safety glasses marketed under the Bushnell, Tasco?, Boll??, Serengeti? and Browning Sports Optics? names.

As experts in the property development sector, with a vision to expand, Verve Projects approached Concept Commercial Interiors to design a practical and functional new office environment that also inspired a collective workplace culture.
Ensuring room for future growth was vital; by implementing linear desk layouts and allocated workstations, we could maximize the workspace capacity while also taking advantage of the abundant natural light. Open plan zones, a variety of table space, and an expansive social breakout area with games created an environment that encouraged conversation and connectivity. Sleek and neutral tones were used throughout the fixtures, lighting, and surfaces to create a contemporary and chic aesthetic.
The completed fit out provided Verve with a new office that equally accommodated employee’s needs and the company’s vision.

M-commerce fails to reel in retailers
Wireless cellphone payments face barrier
While the country's top cellphone carriers recently
teamed up to prepare for the introduction of wireless
payments, the concept doesn't yet appear to be high on
the agenda of many consumer-focused businesses.
Compared with countries where so-called mobile commerce
(m-commerce) is more advanced, Canadians use their
cellphones to pay for only a few products or services,
such as ring tones and parking. In contrast, consumers
in Japan reach for their cellphones when they buy goods
in convenience stores or vending machines, go to the
movies, and even fly.
After adding camera, music, and TV features to
cellphones, Canadian wireless companies have decided the
time has come to transform wireless devices into wallets
here, too. Two weeks ago, Bell Mobility, Telus Mobility
and Rogers Wireless launched a jointly owned venture
called Wireless Payment Services that will focus on
creating a standardized system.
Dawood Khan, a partner at wireless consulting firm Kazam
Technologies, says there are opportunities to use
wireless payments for convenience where small change is
required, and when consumers want to avoid lineups. "For
a solution to be successful, it has to address both the
retailer's needs and the consumer's needs."
A number of firms agree wireless payments could be
interesting -- but it's not on their current agenda.
"It is certainly one thing we'd look at among other
things," said Pat Marshall, a spokeswoman for movie
theatre chain Cineplex Entertainment LP. The company
wants to make it easier for customers to buy tickets,
she said, pointing to plans to expand its on-line
ticketing system as an example. "Our demographic is
highly frequented by youth, and cellphones are a major
focus of a youth's life."
At convenience store chain 7-Eleven Canada Inc.,
wireless payments are not on the horizon, according to
company spokeswoman Laurie Smith.
The same goes for Toronto's Beck Taxi. It's rolling out
the Interac direct debit service in its taxi fleet, but
has no plans for cellphone payments, according to
marketing manager Andrew Whiteley -- although he's not
dismissing it. "If it was a convenient application for
the user and for us . . . then why not."
A major starting point for m-commerce in Canada will be
when Wireless Payment Services introduces a system in
the third quarter of 2006 that will let consumers use
their cellphones to buy additional minutes with debit or
credit cards, company president Jeff Chorlton says. He
adds that multinational consumer-related businesses with
operations here are already conducting pilots in other
parts of the world. "They see commercial transactions
going in this direction."
Nonetheless, there are hurdles for providers to clear
before wireless payments start to gain traction among
businesses and consumers. The carriers need to create an
easy user experience, address security and privacy
concerns, and price it attractively, according to a
recent Kazam report.
In one of the few m-commerce experiments going on in
Canada, Bell Canada and Coca-Cola Bottling Co., using
technology from cStar Technologies Inc. and other firms,
this year conducted a wireless payment trial at the
Ambassador Conference Resort in Kingston.
The hotel's guests could buy Coca-Cola's juices and soft
drinks using their room cards or cellphones. During the
trial there was an increase in transactions at the
vending machines, according to Allan de Paulsen, a Bell
"In terms of technology, it worked very well," added
Alain Ayotte, director of cold drink operations for
Canada at Coca-Cola Bottling.
Coca-Cola is looking at different types of technology,
including a system from cStar, which started developing
wireless payment products for vending and other machines
Mr. Ayotte said the company wants to do more trials of
cellphone, room card and credit card payments next year
in different venues. "We wish to see the real impact on
the business and consumer response at more than just one
location," Mr. Ayotte said.

We Built This Site For You
Our Core Values
This is a keystone for us. You must keep an open mindset and have the willing to learn a new skill and therefore growing with the skillset you will require throughout the learning
We are both very committed people and we want you, to commit to this journey as well. We will give you everything you need to follow through, but in the end it is still you and your partner that has to actually do the trainings. We will follow up along the way and we can’t wait to support you on your journey
This is a huge value for us. Communication is the foundation of any relationship, wether it is with your family, friends, partner, children, people you meet or colleagues. We are very keen on communication and we are always ready to hear from you, throughout your journey. We will touch base on this subject, in the training as well.
We believe in being authentic to who you are and what you are doing. Too often we feel judged from society, friends or family and we stop doing what we love the most, because we are afraid of the outcome. But truly we shouldn’t and for us living in Integrity is a keystone to a beautiful lifestyle
This is our ultimate goal for you. To create self-belief! Confidence is not something you are born with or something you can buy. Confidence is something, that you acquire through small successful steps daily, that boost your energy level and your self-confidence will sky rocket as a result.
Why we got started
We are Davide & Caroline from Italy and Denmark and we are professional ballroom dancers. We launched DANCE Incubation because we want to help the people who are struggling to find rhythm and intimacy in life with their significant one.
It all started back in 2011 when we meet each other. We both searched for a partner to continue our career of ballroom dancing. We were both 19 years old, just graduated high school and had all our whole life in front of us.
We both did dancing since were young but none of us had had a lot of success with our previous partners. Regardless of that we both knew, that dancing was our life and we wanted to pursue this dream of ours of reaching the highest level in ballroom dancing in the world.
We started of with no money at all, and started doing all type of work to pay our dancing, Plumber, kindergarten, cleaning houses, supermarket, dog walker, painter, sewing practice cloth and sell it, make-up courses and finally teaching dancing. In August 2013 we did our first major result and since then we have lived fully from our dancing career, something that many dancers wish for, and we are so grateful and proud, that we could make that happen for ourselves at such a young age.
But like anything in life, it came with a lot of sacrifices!
Sacrifices that in the beginning felt easy to make. We were young, hungry and only looked forward to our goal – becoming the best in the world! So we travelled, slept in airports, ate really poorly to save money and just did everything we could to reach the top. But along the way, the sacrifices started to become harder and harder and we started researching for different ways to create more stability in our life. Not constantly hunting for money and results. We always naively thought, that once we reached the results we wanted, we would be happy and life would be good. But something else happened!
We are now 3 times Danish Champions, top 14 in the World and 3 times North European Champions and we are still struggling to make a living. As much as we absolutely LOVE dancing, we have had to realise, that living as a dancer has its limits. If we want to start a family we need to find more stability. Travelling around teaching, giving shows and dancing competitions, is something that the body naturally at one point will say stop to.
So we decided to make a change. To still dance full time Ballroom Dancing, as we love this art form and lifestyle, but at the same time, we created an online universe, where we can use our talent and our knowledge after over 20 years of dancing and teaching, to help other people. To give back to the community and to help people who happily will learn some moves, to feel better about themselves. More confident, create intimacy and a unique hobby with your significant other..

The Works of the Rev. Jonathan Swift/Volume 9/The Drapier’s Letters 7
BOTH HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT
BY M. B. DRAPIER.
Malta gemens plagasque superbi
I HAVE been told, that petitions and addresses, to either king or parliament, are the right of every subject; provided they consist with that respect, which is due to princes and great assemblies. Neither do I remember, that the modest proposals or opinions of private men have been ill received, when they have not been delivered in the style of advice; which is a presumption far from my thoughts. However, if proposals should be looked upon as too assuming; yet I hope, every man may be suffered to declare his own and the nation's wishes. For instance; I may be allowed to wish, that some farther laws were enacted for the advancement of trade, for the improvement of agriculture, now strangely neglected, against the maxims of all wise nations: for supplying the manifest defects in the acts concerning the plantation of trees; for setting the poor to work; and many others.
Upon this principle I may venture to affirm, it is the hearty wish of the whole nation, very few excepted, that the parliament, in this session, would begin by strictly examining into the detestable fraud of one William Wood, now or late of London, hardwareman; who illegally and clandestinely, as appears by your own votes and addresses, procured a patent in England for coining halfpence in that kingdom to be current here. This, I say, is the wish of the whole nation, very few excepted; and upon account of those few, is more strongly and justly the wish of the rest: those few consisting either of Wood's confederates, some obscure tradesmen, or certain bold UNDERTAKERS, of weak judgment and strong ambition, who think to find their accounts in the ruin of the nation, by securing or advancing themselves. And because such men proceed upon a system of politicks, to which I would fain hope you will be always utter strangers, I shall humbly lay it before you.
Be pleased to suppose me in a station of fifteen hundred pounds a year, salary and perquisites; and likewise possessed of 800l. a year real estate. Then suppose a destructive project to be on foot; such for instance as this of Wood; which, if it succeed in all the consequences naturally to be expected from it, must sink the rents and wealth of the kingdom one half, although I am confident, it would have done so five sixths: Suppose, I conceive that the countenancing, or privately supporting this project, will please those by whom I expect to be preserved, or higher exalted: nothing then remains, but to compute and balance my gain and my loss, and sum up the whole. I suppose that I shall keep my employment ten years, not to mention the fair chance of a better. This at 1500l. a year amounts in ten years to 15000. My estate by the success of the said project sinks 400l. a year; which, at twenty years purchase, is but 8000l. so that I am a clear gainer of 7000l. upon the balance. And during all that period I am possessed of power and credit, can gratify my favourites, and take vengeance on my enemies. And if the project miscarry, my private merit is still entire. This arithmetick, as horrible as it appears, I knowingly affirm to have been practised and applied, in conjunctures whereon depended the ruin or safety of a nation: although probably the charity and virtue of a senate will hardly be induced to believe, that there can be such monsters among mankind. And yet the wise lord Bacon mentions a sort of people (I doubt the race is not yet extinct) who would set a house on fire for the convenience of roasting their own eggs at the flame.
But whoever is old enough to remember, and has turned his thoughts to observe the course of publick affairs in this kingdom from the time of the revolution, must acknowledge, that the highest points of interest and liberty have been often sacrificed to the avarice and ambition of particular persons, upon the very principles and arithmetick that I have supposed: the only wonder is, how these artists were able to prevail upon numbers, and influence even publick assemblies, to become instruments for effecting their execrable designs.
It is, I think, in all conscience, latitude enough for vice, if a man in station be allowed to act injustice upon the usual principles of getting a bribe, wreaking his malice, serving his party, or consulting his preferment, while his wickedness terminates in the ruin only of particular persons. But to deliver up our whole country, and every living soul who inhabits it, to certain destruction, has not, as I remember, been permitted by the most favourable casuists on the side of corruption. It were far better, that all who have had the misfortune to be born in this kingdom, should be rendered incapable of holding any employment whatsoever above the degree of a constable (according to the scheme and intention of a great minister gone to his own place) than to live under the daily apprehension of a few false brethren among ourselves. Because, in the former case, we should be wholly free from the danger of being betrayed; since none could then have impudence enough to pretend any publick good.
It is true, that in this desperate affair of the new halfpence, I have not heard of any man above my own degree of a shopkeeper, to have been hitherto so bold, as in direct terms to vindicate the fatal project; although I have been told of some very mollifying expressions which were used, and very gentle expedients proposed and handed about, when it first came under debate: but, since the eyes of the people have been so far opened, that the most ignorant can plainly see their own ruin in the success of Wood's attempt, these grand compounders, have been more cautious.
But, that the same spirit still subsists, has manifestly appeared (among other instances of great compliance) from certain circumstances, that have attended some late proceedings in a court of judicature. There is not any common place more frequently insisted on by those who treat of our constitution, than the great happiness and excellency of trials by juries; yet, if this blessed part of our law be eludible at pleasure, by the force of power, frowns, and artifice, we shall have little reason to boast of our advantage in this particular, over other states or kingdoms in Europe. And surely these high proceedings, exercised in a point that so nearly concerned the lifeblood of the people, their necessary subsistence, their very food and raiment, and even the publick peace, will not allow any favourable appearance; because it was obvious, that so much superabundant zeal could have no other design, or produce any other effect, than to damp that spirit raised in the nation aguinst this accursed scheme of William Wood and his abettors; to which spirit alone we owe, and for ever must owe, our being hitherto preserved, and our hopes of being preserved for the future, if it can be kept up, and strongly countenanced by your wise assemblies. I wish I could account for such a demeanor, upon a more charitable foundation, than that of putting our interest in over balance with the ruin of our country.
I remember some months ago, when this affair was fresh in discourse, a person nearly allied to SOMEBODY, or (as the hawkers called him) NOBODY, who was thought deeply concerned, went about very diligently among his acquaintance, to show the bad consequences that might follow, from any publick resentment, to the disadvantage of his ally, Mr. Wood; principally alleging the danger of all employments being disposed of from England. One of these emissaries came to me, and urged the same topick: I answered naturally, that I knew there was no office of any kind, which a man from England might not have if he thought it worth his asking; and that I looked upon all who had the disadvantage of being born here, as only in the conditions of leasers and gleaners. Neither could I forbear mentioning the known fable of the countryman, who entreated his ass to fly, for fear of being taken by the enemy; but the ass refused to give himself that trouble, and upon a very wise reason; because he could not possibly change his present master for a worse: the enemy could not make him fare harder, beat him more cruelly, or load him with heavier burdens.
Upon these, and many other considerations, I may affirm it to be the wish of the whole nation, that the power and privileges of juries were declared, ascertained, and confirmed by the legislature; and that whoever has been manifestly known to violate them, might be stigmatized by publick censure; not from any hope that such a censure will amend their practices, or hurt their interest (for it may probably operate quite contrary in both) but that the nation may know their enemies, from their friends.
I say not this with any regard or view to myself; for I write in great security; and am resolved that none shall merit at my expense, farther than by showing their zeal to discover, prosecute, and condemn me, for endeavouring to do my duty in serving my country: and yet I am conscious to myself, that I never had the least intention to reflect on his majesty's ministers, nor on any other person, except William Wood, whom I neither did, nor do yet conceive to be of that number. However, some would have it, that I went too far; but I suppose they will now allow themselves mistaken. I am sure I might easily have gone farther, and I think I could not easily have fared worse. And therefore I was no farther affected with their proclamation, and subsequent proceedings, than a good clergyman is, with the sins of the people. And as to the poor printer, he is now gone to appear before a higher, and before a righteous tribunal.
As my intention is only to lay before your great assemblies the general wishes of the nation; and as I have already declared it our principal wish, that your first proceeding would be to examine into the pernicious fraud of William Wood; so I must add, as the universal opinion, that all schemes of commutation, composition, and the like expedients, either avowed or implied, will be of the most pernicious consequences to the publick; against the dignity of a free kingdom; and prove an encouragement to future adventurers, in the same destructive projects. For it is a maxim, which no man at present disputes, that even a connivance to admit one thousand pounds in these halfpence, will produce, in time, the same ruinous effects, as if we openly consented to admit a million. It were therefore infinitely more safe and eligible to leave things in the doubtful, melancholy state they are at present (which however God forbid) and trust entirely to the general aversion of our people against this coin, using all honest endeavours to preserve, continue, and increase that aversion, than submit to apply those palliatives, which weak, perfidious, or abject politicians, are, upon all occasions, and in all diseases, so ready to administer.
In the small compass of my reading (which however has been more extensive than is usual to men of my inferiour calling) I have observed that grievances have always preceded supplies; and if ever grievances had a title to such a preeminence, it must be this of Wood; because it is not only the greatest grievance that any country could suffer, but a grievance of such a kind, that if it should take effect, would make it impossible for us to give any supplies at all, except in adulterate copper; unless a tax were laid for paying the civil and military lists, and the large pensions, with real commodities instead of money; which however might be liable to some few objections as well as difficulties: for, although the common soldiers might be content with beef and mutton, and wool, and malt, and leather; yet I am in some doubt as to the generals, the colonels, the numerous pensioners, the civil officers and others, who all live in England upon Irish pay, as well as those few who reside among us only because they cannot help it.
There is one particular, which although I have mentioned more than once in some of my former papers, yet I cannot forbear to repeat, and a little enlarge upon it; because I do not remember to have read or heard of the like in the history of any age or country; neither do I ever reflect upon it without the utmost astonishment.
After the unanimous addresses to his sacred majesty against this patent of Wood, from both houses of parliament, which are the three estates of the kingdom; and likewise an address from the privy council, to whom, under the chief governors, the whole administration is intrusted; the matter is referred to a committee of council in London. Wood, and his adherents are heard on one side; and a few volunteers, without any trust or direction from hence, on the other. The question (as I remember) chiefly turned upon the want of halfpence in Ireland: witnesses are called on the behalf of Wood, of what credit I have formerly shown: upon the issue, the patent is found good and legal; all his majesty's officers here (not excepting the military) commanded to be aiding and assisting to make it effectual; the addresses of both houses of parliament, of the privy council, and of the city of Dublin, the declarations of most counties and corporations through the kingdom, are altogether laid aside, as of no weight, consequence, or consideration whatsoever; and the whole kingdom of Ireland nonsuited in default of appearance; as if it were a private cause between John Doe, plaintiff, and William Roe, defendant.
With great respect to those honourable persons, the committee of council in London, I have not understood them to be our governors, counsellors, or judges. Neither did our case turn at all upon the question, whether Ireland wanted halfpence. For there is no doubt, but we do want both halfpence, gold, and silver; and we have numberless, other wants, and some that we are not so much as allowed to name, although they are peculiar to this nation; to which no other is subject, whom God has blessed the religion and laws, or any degree of soil and sunshine: but for what demerits on our side I am altogether in the dark.
But I do not remember that our want of halfpence, was either affirmed, or denied, in any of our addresses or declarations against those of Wood. We alleged the fraudulent obtaining and executing of his patent; the baseness of his metal; and the prodigious sum to be coined, which might be increased by stealth, from foreign importation, and his own counterfeits, as well as those at home; whereby we must infallibly lose all our little gold and silver, and all our poor remainder of a very limited and discouraged trade. We urged, that the patent was passed without the least reference hither; and without mention of any security given by Wood to receive his own halfpence upon demand; both which are contrary to all former proceedings in the like cases. These and many other arguments we offered; but still the patent went on, and at this day our ruin would have been half completed, if God in his mercy had not raised a universal detestation of these halfpence in the whole kingdom, with a firm resolution never to receive them, since we are not under obligations to do so, by any law, either human or divine.
But in the name of God, and of all justice and piety, when the king's majesty was pleased that this patent should pass, is it not to be understood, that he conceived, believed, and intended it as a gracious act, for the good and benefit of his subjects, for the advantage of a great and fruitful kingdom; of the most loyal kingdom upon earth, where no hand or voice was ever lifted up against him; a kingdom, where the passage is not of three hours from Britain, and a kingdom where papists have less power and less land than in England? can it be denied, or doubted, that his majesty's ministers understood and proposed the same end, the good of this nation, when they advised the passing of this patent? can the person of Wood be otherwise regarded, than as the instrument, the mechanick, the head workman, to prepare his furnace, his fuel, his metal, and his stamps? if I employ a shoeboy, is it in view to his advantage, or to my own convenience? I mention the person of William Wood alone; because no other appears, and we are not to reason upon surmises; neither would it avail, if they had a real foundation.
Allowing therefore (for we cannot do less) that this patent for the coining of halfpence was wholly intended by a gracious king, and a wise publick-spirited ministry, for the advantage of Ireland; yet when the whole kingdom to a man, for whose good the patent was designed, do, upon maturest consideration, universally join in openly declaring, protesting, addressing, petitioning against these halfpence, as the most ruinous project that ever was set on foot, to complete the slavery and destruction of a poor innocent country: is it, was it, can it, or will it ever be a question, not, whether such a kingdom or William Wood, should be a gainer; but whether such a kingdom should be wholly undone, destroyed, sunk, depopulated, made a scene of misery and desolation, for the sake of William Wood? God of his infinite mercy avert this dreadful judgment! and it is our universal wish, that God would put it into your hearts, to be his instruments for so good a work.
For my own part, who am but one man, of obscure condition, I do solemnly declare, in the presence of Almighty God, that I will suffer the most ignominious and torturing death, rather than submit to receive this accursed coin, or any other that shall be liable to these objections, until they shall be forced upon me by a law of my own country; and, if that shall ever happen, I will transport myself into some foreign land, and eat the bread of poverty among a free people.
Am I legally punishable for these expressions? shall another proclamation issue against me, because I presume to take my country's part against William Wood, where her final destruction is intended? But whenever you shall please to impose silence upon me, I will submit; because I look upon your unanimous voice to be the voice of the nation; and this I have been taught, and do believe, to be in some manner the voice of God.
The great ignominy of a whole kingdom lying so long at mercy under so vile an adversary, is such a deplorable aggravation, that the utmost expressions of shame and rage are too low to set it forth: and therefore I shall leave it to receive such a resentment, as is worthy of a parliament.
It is likewise our universal wish, that his majesty should grant liberty to coin halfpence in this kingdom for our own use, under such restriction as a parliament here shall advise: since the power of coining even gold and silver, is possessed by every petty prince abroad; and was always practised by Scotland to the very time of the union: yet surely Scotland, as to soil, climate, and extent, is not in itself a fourth part the value of Ireland, for bishop Burnet says, it is not above the fortieth part in value to the rest of Britain; and with respect to the profit that England gains from hence, not the forty thousandth part. Although I must confess, that a mote in the eye, or a thorn in the side, is more dangerous and painful, than a beam or a spike at a distance.
The histories of England, and of most other countries, abound in relating the miserable, and sometimes the most tragical effects from the abuses of coin by debasing the metal, by lessening or enhancing the value upon occasions, to the publick loss; of which we have an example within our own memory in England, and another very lately in France. It is the tenderest point of government, affecting every individual in the highest degree. When the value of money is arbitrary or unsettled, no man can well be said to have any property at all; nor is any wound so suddenly felt, so hardly cured, or that leaves such deep and lasting scars behind it.
I conceive this poor unhappy island to have a title to some indulgence from England; not only upon the score of Christianity, natural equity, and the general rights of mankind, but chiefly on account of that immense profit they receive from us; without which, that kingdom would make a very different figure in Europe, from what it does at present.
The rents of land in Ireland, since they have been of late so enormously raised and screwed up, may be computed to about two millions; whereof one third part at least is directly transmitted to those who are perpetual absentees in England; as I find by a computation made with the assistance of several skilful gentlemen.
The other articles, by which we are altogether losers and England a gainer, we found to amount to almost as much more.
I will only set down as many heads of them as I can remember, and leave them to the consideration of those who understand accounts better than I pretend to do.
The occasional absentees, for business, health, or diversion.
Three fourths of the revenue of the chief governor, during his absence; which is usually four fifths of his government.
The whole revenue of the post office.
The numerous pensions paid to persons in England.
The pay of the chief officers of the army absent in England, which is a great sum.
Four commissioners of the revenue, always absent.
Civil employments very numerous, and of great income.
Students at the inns of court, and the two universities.
Eighty thousand pounds sent yearly to England for coals: whereof the prime cost is nothing, and therefore the profit wholly theirs.
One hundred thousand pounds paid several years past for corn sent over hither from England; the effect of our own great wisdom in discouraging agriculture.
The kind liberty granted us of wearing Indian stuffs, and calicoes, to gratify the vanity and folly of our women; which, beside the profit to England, is an inconceivable loss to us, forcing the weavers to beg in our streets, or transport themselves to foreign countries.
The prodigious loss to us, and gain to England, by selling them all our wool at their own rates; whereof the manufacture exceeds above ten times the prime cost: a proceeding without example in the christian or heathen world.
Our own wool returned upon us in English manufactures, to our infinite shame and damage, and the great advantage of England.
The full profit of all mines accruing to England; an effect of great negligence and stupidity.
An affectation among us of liking all kind of goods made in England.
These and many other articles, which I cannot recollect at present, are agreed by judicious men to amount to near seven hundred thousand pounds per ann. clear profit to England. And upon the whole, let any man look into those authors who write upon the subject of commerce, he shall find, that there is not one single article in the essentials or circumstances of trade, whereby a country can be a loser, which we do not possess in the highest perfection; somewhat in every particular, that bears a kind of analogy to William Wood; and now the branches are all cut off, he stands ready with his axe at the root.
Upon this subject of perpetual absentees I have spent some time in very insignificant reflections; and considering the usual motives of human actions, which are pleasure, profit, and ambition, I cannot yet comprehend how those persons find their account in any of the three. I speak not of those English peers or gentlemen, who, beside their estates at home, have possessions here, for in that case the matter is desperate; but I mean those lords, and wealthy knights, or squires, whose birth, and partly their education, and all their fortune (except some trifle, and that in a very few instances) are in this kingdom. I knew many of them well enough during several years, when I resided in England; and truly I could not discover that the figure they made, was by any means a subject for envy; at least it gave me two very different passions. For, excepting the advantage of going now and then to an opera, or sometimes appearing behind a crowd at court, or adding to the ring of coaches in Hyde Park, or losing their money at the chocolate house, or getting news, votes, and minutes about five days before us in Dublin; I say, beside these, and a few other privileges of less importance, their temptations to live in London were beyond my knowledge or conception. And I used to wonder, how a man of birth and spirit, could endure to be wholly insignificant and obscure in a foreign country, when he might live with lustre in his own; and even at less than half that expense, which he strains himself to make without obtaining any one end, except that which happened to the frog, when he would needs contend for size with the ox. I have been told by scholars, that Cæsar said he would rather be the first man in I know not what village, than the second in Rome. This perhaps was a thought only fit for Cæsar: but to be preceded by thousands, and neglected by millions; to be wholly without power, ligure, influence, honour, credit, or distinction, is not in my poor opinion a very amiable situation of life, to a person of title or wealth, who can so cheaply and easily shine in his native country.
But, beside the depopulating of the kingdom, leaving so many parts of it wild and uncultivated, the ruin of so many country seats and plantations, the cutting down of all the woods to supply expenses in England; the absence of so many noble and wealthy persons, has been the cause of another fatal consequence, which few perhaps have been aware of. For, if that very considerable number of lords, who possess the amplest fortunes here, had been content to live at home, and attend the affairs of their own country in parliament; the weight, reputation, and dignity thereby added to that noble house, would, in all human probability, have prevented certain proceedings, which are now ever to be lamented, because they never can be remedied: and we might have then decided our own properties among ourselves, whhout being forced to travel five hundred miles by sea and land to another kingdom for justice, to our infinite expense, vexation, and trouble; which is a mark of servitude without example from the practice of any age or nation in the world.
I have sometimes wondered, upon, what motives the peerage of England were so desirous to determine our controversies; because I have been assured, and partly know, that the frequent appeals from hence have been very irksome to that illustrious body: and whoever has frequented the painted chamber and courts of requests, must have observed, that they are never so nobly filled, as when an Irish appeal is under debate.
The peers of Scotland, who are very numerous, were content to reside in their castles and houses in that bleak and barren climate; and although some of them made frequent journies to London, yet I do not remember any of their greatest families, till very lately, to have made England their constant habitation before the union: or, if they did, I am sure it was generally to their own advantage; and whatever they got, was employed to cultivate and increase their own estates; and by that means enrich themselves and their country.
As to the great number of rich absentees under the degree of peers; what particular ill effects their absence may have upon this kingdom, beside those already mentioned, may perhaps be too tender a point for me to touch. But whether those who live in another kingdom upon great estates here, and have lost all regard to their own country, farther than upon account of the revenues they receive from it; I say, whether such persons may not be prevailed on to recommend others to vacant seats, who have no interest here except a precarious employment, and consequently can have no views, but to preserve what they have got, or to be higher advanced: this, I am sure, is a very melancholy question, if it be a question at all.
But, beside the prodigious profit which England receives, by the transmittal thither of two thirds of the revenues of this whole kingdom, it has another mighty advantage, by making our country a receptacle, wherein to disburden themselves of their supernumerary pretenders to offices; persons of second rate merit in their own country, who, like birds of passage, most of them thrive and fatten here, and fly off when their credit and employments are at an end. So that Ireland may justly say, what Luther said of himself, POOR Ireland makes many rich.
If amid all our difficulties I should venture to assert, that we have one great advantage, provided we could improve it as we ought, I believe most of my readers would be long in conjecturing what possible advantage could ever fall to our share. However, it is certain, that all the regular seeds of party and faction among us are entirely rooted out; and it any new ones shall spring up, they must be of equivocal generation, without any seed at all; and will justly be imputed to a degree of stupidity, beyond even what we have been ever charged with upon the score of our birthplace and climate.
The parties in this kingdom (including those of modern date) are, first, of those who have been charged or suspected to favour the pretender; and those who were zealous opposers of him. Secondly, of those who were for and against a toleration of dissenters by law. Thirdly, of high and low church; or (to speak in the cant of the times) of whig and tory. And fourthly, of court and country. If there be any more, they are beyond my observation or politicks: for, as to subaltern or occasional parties, they have been all derivations from the same originals.
Now it is manifest, that all these incitements to faction, party, and division, are wholly removed from among us. For, as to the pretender, his cause is both desperate and obsolete: there are very few now alive, who were men in his father's time, and in that prince's interest; and in all others, the obligation of conscience has no place: even the papists in general, of any substance or estates, and their priests almost universally are what we call whigs, in the sense which by that word is generally understood. They feel the smart, and see the scars of their former wounds; and very well know, that they must be made a sacrifice to the least attempts toward a change; although it cannot be doubted that they would be glad to have their superstition restored, under any prince whatsoever.
Secondly, the dissenters are now tolerated by law; neither do we observe any murmurs at present from that quarter, except those reasonable complaints they make of persecution, because they are excluded from civil employments; but their number being very small in either house of parliament, they are not yet in a situation to erect a party: because, however indifferent men may be with regard to religion, they are now grown wise enough to know, that if such a latitude were allowed to dissenters, the few small employments left us in cities and corporations, would find other hands to lay hold on them.
Thirdly, the dispute between high and low church is now at an end; two thirds of the bishops having been promoted in this reign, and most of them from Engand, who have bestowed all preferments in their gift to those they could well confide in: The deaneries all, except three, and many principal church livings, are in the donation of the crown: so that we already possess such a body of clergy, as will never engage in controversy upon that antiquated and exploded subject.
Lastly, as to court and country parties, so famous and avowed under most reigns in English parliaments: this kingdom has not, for several years past, been a proper scene, whereon to exercise such contentions; and is now less proper than ever; many great employments for life being in distant hands, and the reversions diligently watched and secured; the temporary ones of any inviting value, are all bestowed elsewhere, as fast as they drop; and the few remaining, are of too low consideration, to create contests about them, except among younger brothers, or tradesmen like myself. And therefore, to institute a court and country party without materials, would be a very new system in politicks, and what I believe was never thought on before: nor, unless in a nation of idiots, can ever succeed; for the most ignorant Irish cottager will not sell his cow for a groat.
Therefore I conclude, that all party and faction, with regard to publick proceedings, are now extinguished in this kingdom; neither does it appear in view how they can possibly revive, unless some new causes be administered; which cannot be done, without crossing the interests of those, who are the greatest gainers by continuing the same measures. And general calamities without hope of redress, are allowed to be the great uniters of mankind.
However we may dislike the causes, yet this effect of begetting a universal concord among us, in all national debates, as well as in cities, corporations, and country neighbourhoods, may keep us at least alive, and in a condition to eat the little bread allowed us, in peace and amity. I have heard of a quarrel in a tavern, where all were at daggers drawing, till one of the company cried out, desiring to know the subject of the quarrel; which when none of them could tell, they put up their swords, sat down, and passed the rest of the evening in quiet. The former part has been our case, I hope the latter will be so too; that we shall sit down amicably together, at least until we have something that may give us a title to fall out, since nature has instructed even a brood of goslings to stick together, while the kite is hovering over their heads.
It is certain, that a firm union in any country, where every man wishes the same thing with relation to the publick, may, in several points of the greatest importance, in some measure supply the defect of power, and even of those rights, which are the natural and undoubted inheritance of mankind. If the universal wish of the nation upon any point were declared, by the unanimous vote of the house of commons, and a reasonable number of lords, I should think myself obliged in conscience to act in my sphere according to that vote; because in all free nations, I take the proper definition of law, to be the will of the majority of those who have the property in land; which, if there be a monarchy, is to be confirmed by the royal assent. And although such votes or declarations, have not received such a confirmation for certain accidental reasons; yet I think they ought to be of much weight with the subject, provided they neither oppose the king's prerogative, endanger the peace of the nation, nor infringe any law already in force; none of which however can reasonably be supposed. Thus for instance, if nine in ten of the house of commons, and a reasonable number of native temporal peers, should declare, that whoever received or uttered brass coin, except under certain limitations and securities, should be deemed as enemies to the king and the nation; I should think it a heinous sin in myself to act contrary to such a vote: and if the same power, should declare the same censure, against those who wore Indian stuffs and callicoes, or woollen manufactures imported from abroad, whereby this nation is reduced to the lowest ebb of misery, I should readily, heartily, and cheerfully pay obedience; and to my utmost power persuade others to do the like: because there is no law of this land obliging us either to receive such coin, or to wear such foreign manufactures.
Upon this last article I could humbly wish, that the reverend the clergy would set us an example, by contenting themselves with wearing gowns and other habiliments of Irish drapery; which, as it would be some incitement to the laity, and set many hands to work, so they would find their advantage in the cheapness, which is a circumstance not to be neglected by too many among that venerable body. And in order to this I could heartily desire that the most ingenious artists of the weaving trade, would contrive some decent stuffs and silk for clergymen at reasonable rates.
I have pressed several of our most substantial brethren, that the whole corporation of weavers in silk and woollen, would publish some proposals (I wish they would do it to both houses of parliament) inviting persons of all degrees, and of both sexes, to wear the woollen and silk manufactures of our own country; entering into solemn, mutual engagements, that the buyer shall have good, substantial, merchantable ware for his money, and at a certain rate, without the trouble of cheapening: so that if I sent a child for a piece of stuff of a particular colour and fineness, I should be sure not to be deceived; or, if I had reason to complain, the corporation should give me immediate satisfaction; and the name of the tradesman, who did me the wrong, should be published, and warning given not to deal with him for the future; unless the matter plainly appeared to be a mistake; for, beside the trouble of going from shop to shop, an ignorant customer runs the hazard of being cheated in the price and goodness of what he buys, being forced to an unequal combat, with a dextrous and dishonest man in his own calling. Thus our goods fall under a general disreputation; and the gentry call for English cloth, or silk, from an opinion they have (and often too justly by our own faults) that the goodness more than makes up for the difference of price.
Besides, it has been the sottish and ruinous practice of us tradesmen, upon any great demand of goods, either at home or from abroad, to raise the prices immediately, and manufacture the said goods more slightly and fraudulently than before.
Of this foul and foolish proceeding, too many instances might be produced; and I cannot forbear mentioning one, whereby this poor kingdom has received such a fatal blow, in the only article of trade allowed us of any importance, that nothing but the success of Wood's project could outdo it. During the late plague in France, the Spaniards, who buy their linen cloths in that kingdom, not daring to venture thither for fear of infection, a very great demand was made here for that commodity, and exported to Spain: but, whether by the ignorance of the merchants, or dishonesty of the northern weavers, or the collusion of both, the ware was so bad, and the price so excessive, that except some small quantity which was sold below the prime cost, the greatest part was returned: and I have been told by very intelligent persons, that if we had been fair dealers, the whole current of the linen trade to Spain, would have taken its course from hence.
If any punishment were to be inflicted on numbers of men, surely there could none be thought too great for such a race of traitors, and enemies to God and their country; who for the prospect of a little present gain, do not only ruin themselves (for that alone would be an example to the rest, and a blessing to the nation) but sell their souls to Hell, and their country to destruction. And if the plague could have been confined only to those who were partakers in the guilt, had it travelled hither from Marseilles, those wretches would have died with less title to pity, than a highwayman going to the gallows.
But it happens very unluckily, that for some time past, all endeavours or proposals from private persons to advance the publick service, however honestly and innocently designed, have been called flying in the king's face; and this to my knowledge has been the style of some persons, whose ancestors, (I mean those among them who had any) and themselves, have been flying in princes faces these fourscore years; and from their own inclinations would do so still, if their interest did not lead them rather to fly in the face of a kingdom, which has given them wings to enable them for such a flight.
Thus, about four years ago, when a discourse was published endeavouring to persuade our people to wear their own woollen manufactures, full of the most dutiful expressions to the king, and without the least party hint, it was termed flying in the king's face; the printer was prosecuted in the manner we all remember, and I hope it will somewhere be remembered farther, the jury kept eleven hours, and sent back nine times, till they were under the necessity of leaving the prisoner to the mercy of the court, by a special verdict; the judge on the bench invoking God for his witness, when he asserted that the author's design was to bring in the pretender.
And thus also my own poor endeavours, to prevent the ruin of my country, by the admission of Wood's coin, were called by the same persons, flying in the king's face; which I directly deny: for I cannot allow that vile representation of the royal countenance, in William Wood's adulterate copper, to be his sacred majesty's face; or, if it were, my flying was not against the impression, but the baseness of the metal; because I well remembered, that the image which Nebuchadnezzar commanded to be set up for all men to fall down and worship it, was not of copper, but pure gold. And I am heartily sorry we have so few royal images of that metal among us; the sight whereof, although it could hardly increase our veneration for his majesty, which is already so great, yet would very much enliven it with the mixture of comfort and satisfaction. Alexander the Great would suffer no statuary, except Phidias, to carve his image in stone or metal. How must he have treated such an operator as Wood, who goes about with sackfuls of dross, odiously misrepresenting his prince's countenance; and would force them by thousands upon every one of us at above six times the value!
But notwithstanding all that has been objected by William Wood himself, together with his favourers, abettors, supporters, either publick or private; by those who connive at this project, or discountenance his opposers, for fear of lessening their favour, or hazarding their employments; by those who endeavour to damp the spirit of the people, raised against this coin, or check the honest zeal of such, as by their writings or discourses do all they can to keep it up; by those softeners, sweeteners, compounders, and expedientmongers, who shake their heads so strongly that we can hear their pockets jingle; I did never imagine, that in detecting the practices of such enemies to the kingdom, I was flying in the king's face; or thought they were better representers of his majesty, than that very coin, for which they are secret or open advocates.
If I were allowed to recite only those wishes of the nation, which may be in our power to attain, I think they might be summed up in these few following.
First, that an end might be put to our apprehensions of Wood's halfpence, and to any danger of the like destructive scheme for the future.
Secondly, that halfpence might be coined in this kingdom by a publick mint, with due limitations.
Thirdly, that the sense of both houses of parliament, at least of the house of commons, were declared by some unanimous and hearty votes, against wearing any silk or woollen manufactures imported from abroad; as likewise against wearing Indian silks or calicoes, which are forbidden under the highest penalties in England: and it behoves us to take example from so wise a nation; because we are under a greater necessity to do so, since we are not allowed to export any woollen manufactures of our own; which is the principal branch of foreign trade in England.
Fourthly, that some effectual methods may be taken, to civilize the poorer sort of our natives, in all those parts of this kingdom where the Irish abound, by introducing among them our language and customs; for want of which, they live in the utmost ignorance, barbarity, and poverty, giving themselves wholly up to idleness, nastiness, and thievery, to the very great and just reproach of too many landlords. And, if I had in me the least spirit of a projector, I would engage, that this might be effected in a few years at a very inconsiderable charge.
Fifthly, that due encouragement should be given to agriculture; and a stop put to that pernicious practice of graziers engrossing vast quantities of land, sometimes at great distance; whereby the country is extremely depopulated.
Sixthly, that the defects in those acts for planting forest trees, might be fully supplied, since they have hitherto been wholly ineffectual, except about the demesnes of a few gentlemen; and even there in general, very unskilfully made, and thriving accordingly. Neither has there yet been due care taken to preserve what is planted, or to enclose grounds; not one hedge in a hundred coming to maturity, for want of skill and industry. The neglect of copsing woods cut down, has likewise been of very ill consequence. And if men were restrained from that unlimited liberty of cutting down their own woods, before the proper time, as they are in some other countries, it would be a mighty benefit to the kingdom. For, I believe, there is not another example in Europe, of such a prodigious quantity of excellent timber cut down in so short a time, with so little advantage to the country, either in shipping or building.
I may add that absurd practice of cutting turf without any regularity; whereby great quantities of restorable land are made utterly desperate, many thousands of cattle destroyed, the turf more difficult to come at and carry home, and less fit for burning; the air made unwholesome by stagnating pools and marshes; and the very sight of such places offensive to those who ride by. Neither should that odious custom be allowed of cutting scraws (as they call them) which is flaying off the green surface of the ground, to cover their cabins, or make up their ditches; sometimes in shallow soils, where all is gravel within a few inches; and sometimes in low ground, with a thin greensward, and sloughy underneath; which last turns all into bog by this mismanagement. And I have heard from very skilful countrymen, that by these two practices in turf and scraws, the kingdom loses some hundreds of acres of profitable land every year; beside the irreparable loss of many skirts of bogs, which have a green coat of grass, and yet are mangled for turf; and beside the want of canals by regular cutting, which would not only be a great convenience for bringing their turf home at an easy rate, but likewise render even the larger bogs more dry and safe for summer pasture.
These, and some other speculations of the like kind, I had intended to publish in a particular discourse against this session of parliament; because, in some periods of my life, I had opportunity and curiosity to observe, from what causes those great errours in every branch of country management have arisen; of which I have now ventured to relate but few put of very many; whereof some perhaps would not be mentioned without giving offence, which I have endeavoured by all possible means to avoid. And for the same reason, I chose to add here, the little I thought proper to say on this subject.
But, as to the lands of those who are perpetual absentees, I do not see any probability of their being ever improved. In former times their tenants sat at easy rents; but for some years past, they have been, generally speaking, more terribly racked by the dexterity of merciless agents from England, than even those who held under the severest landlords here. I was assured upon the place, by great numbers of credible people, that a prodigious estate in the county of Cork being let upon leases for lives and great fines paid, the rent was so high, that the tenants begged leave to surrender their leases, and were content to lose their fines.
The cultivating and improving of land is certainly a subject worthy of the highest inquiry in any country, but especially in ours; where we are so strangely limited in every branch of trade that can be of advantage to us, and utterly deprived of those, which are of the greatest importance; whereof I defy the most learned man in Europe, to produce me an example from any other kingdom in the world: for, we are denied the benefit which God and nature intended to us; as manifestly appears by our happy situation for commerce, and the great number of our excellent ports. So that I think little is left us, beside the cultivating of our own soil, encouraging agriculture, and making great plantations of trees, that we might not be under the necessity of sending for corn and bark from England, and timber from other countries. This would increase the number of our inhabitants, and help to consume our natural products, as well as manufactures at home. And I shall never forget what I once ventured to say to a great man in England, that few politicians, with all their schemes, are half so useful members of a commonwealth, as an honest farmer; who, by skilfully draining, fencing, manuring, and planting, has increased the intrinsick value of a piece of land; and thereby done a perpetual service to his country: which it is a great controversy whether any of the former ever did since the creation of the world; but no controversy at all that ninety-nine in a hundred have done abundance of mischief.

- Many of the above articles have been since particularly computed in "A List of the Absentees of Ireland, and the yearly Value of their Estates and Incomes spent abroad, by Thomas Prior, esquire."
- Since this hint was suggested, several useful seminaries have been instituted, under the name of "Charter Working Schools" in Ireland, supported by the royal benefaction of a thousand pounds a year, by a tax on hawkers and pedlars, and by voluntary subscriptions. These schools are for the education of boys and girls born of popish parents; in most of them, the children manufacture their own clothing, and the boys are employed in matters relative to husbandry.

The Greek Wind Energy Association, ELETAEN, has forwarded mostly unfavorable views to the Ministry of Environment, Energy & Climate Change on the issue of state aid in the fields of energy and environment, as part of public consultation procedures.
Among other things, the association challenges the legal standing of EU proposals that include measures such as the abolition of compensation packages for renewable energy source ventures through offering guaranteed prices, as well as the possible replacement of compensation packages with competitions.
In its proposal, ELETAEN has called upon the ministry to reject the EU proposals and establish a working group, to include industry participation, for the development of an institutional framework offering support to renewable energy source ventures that would incorporate all positive and necessary aspects included in the EU proposals.
EU proposals such as the abolition of feed-in tariffs and competitions essentially turned against small and medium-sized ventures, the association noted. Such practices would wipe out Greek control in the domestic sector as only foreign wind-energy firms or vertically integrated energy companies would be able to operate within the framework set by the EU guidelines, the association warned.
ELETAEN also noted that the ministry, as part of the country’s political leadership, currently faced the dilemma of either permitting the development of an oligopoly of superpowers in the local energy sector market or maintaining an open, free market for all players, Greek and foreign.
ELETAEN, in the letter, also called for clear-cut, binding and ambitious targets by 2030, for the development of the renewable energy sources sector, which, the association noted, the European Commission had so far failed to establish.
“Given the benefits of the development of renewable energy for the European economy, EU energy security, and in tackling climate change, we do not understand the European Commission’s lack of resolution,” the association noted.

Let’s start by coming to an agreement: seasons, as we know them, are complete fabrications. They’re an attempt by our brains to neatly package broad, variable trends in weather conditions. Any attempt to define distinct boundaries is a futile effort.
So now that we agree that this is all a waste of time, let me tell you why the way we traditionally demarcate seasons is wrong. Traditionally, seasons are based on the length of the day. As you learned in elementary school science class, the earth’s axis is tilted with respect to the plane of our orbit. The days get shorter and colder when we are titled away from the sun (in the northern hemisphere, that happens to be when we’re closer to the sun).
The shortest day of the year is the day of the winter solstice (this year, the winter solstice occurs at 0448 UTC on December 22, or just before midnight on the 21st in the Eastern time zone). For the next six months, the days get progressively longer. In June, the summer solstice occurs and the days start getting shorter again.
The winter solstice in particular has long been an event of spiritual meaning. Ancient cultures celebrated the return of the sun. Many Christmas traditions (and perhaps the date itself) come from Roman and other pagan celebrations.
“But what does this have to do with weather?” you ask. Absolutely nothing, which is my point. The change in insolation (incoming solar radiation) is the driving force behind the weather seasons we experience, but it’s well out of phase with the astronomical boundaries. The shortest day may occur in December, but the coldest days tend to be in January or February. Similarly, the hottest days are in late July and August, even though the longest day is in June.
Since the late eighteenth century, meteorologists have used the first of December as the start of winter (the first of March is the beginning of spring, the first of June is the beginning of summer, and the first of September is the beginning of fall). This is considerably more convenient for calculations and the fuzziness doesn’t matter because seasons are a lie anyway.
Over the years, I’ve come to favor the meteorological definition of the seasons more and more. At least it’s based on the weather. I’ll leave the solstices and equinoxes to the astronomers.

One of the most popular search terms that leads to my blog (besides sheitels, which is, oddly, my most popular search term) is “how to get things done with a baby.” Lately, I’ve been wondering how to get things done with my three non-babies. And by things I mean the “extra” things like playing music. It’s not really an extra, but between school drop-off and pick-up, an extremely adventurous toddler, and the normal tasks of homemaking, I don’t have a whole lot of time to spare.
Writing has seemed to supplant music as my creative outlet as of late. I love to write, and it’s a great outlet for sorting through things, but music touches a part of my soul that nothing else can really reach. So I miss it. But when I try to practice, this is often what happens:
Also, even though we have a house now (and thus, more space), I’m still nervous that my practicing will wake up the children. It used to be that I couldn’t practice past ten in the evening because I didn’t want to bother the other residents of the apartment complex, but now I’m worried about my kids! A clarinet can get pretty loud sometimes, and the sound of the piano does travel up the stairs, or maybe through the ceiling. Also, at the end of the day I’m often very, very tired.
However, I have a nagging suspicion that I’m using these (totally valid) reasons as an excuse.
When it comes down to it, I always practice best when I have a performance looming. And I haven’t had anything on my schedule since the summer, though there are a few projects percolating, nothing is so urgent as to prompt me to pick up my horn (or sit at the piano bench).
An additional complication is that since my schedule is already so packed, adding another thing onto my to-do list could upset the very delicate balance that I’ve got going on. So I’m reticent to put any additional pressure on myself because things are working fairly well right now. But like I’ve mentioned before, sometimes we have to push ourselves to do things even when they seem hard. And I know that if I don’t keep up my musical discipline, it will be even harder to pull it together when I do have a gig.
These are the thoughts swirling around my head. I can list all the very reasonable reasons why I’m out of the habit of practicing. We moved, then it was the holidays, then we took a trip. Totally understandable that I’m off my game. But I know myself, and I know that I can keep rationalizing this for a looong time. And I don’t really want to, but it’s like the same level of motivation for me as getting out of bed without hitting the snooze alarm at least once. You know?
It’s silly, because the level of pleasure and satisfaction I get when I engage in something musically creative is so off-the-charts. Like, it really is part of my needs, and it must release some endorphins or dopamine or something because I am usually in a fantastic mood when I’m working on something, be it performing or writing or both. But that’s how it is sometimes. Something which is so good for us (cough cough learning Torah cough cough) is the thing we put off the most.
So, fellow busy women, what do you do when you feel yourself procrastinating? I know my posts are usually more of the “this is something I learned about life” genre, but today I’m asking for your input. I have been greatly neglecting my musical abilities, and I would love some suggestions for ways to motivate/organize myself to get back into it.

Standing out is important for any buyer, whether you are purchasing your “forever home” or looking to make an investment by flipping property. Multiple offers and bidding wars have quickly become a common part of the home buying process because there has been a high demand and low supply of homes throughout Florida, especially in metropolitan areas such as Miami. If you want to go into the buying process equipped, keep a few things in mind.
Be aware of your budget. Flipping property with hard money from hard money lenders in Florida makes for a great investment, but not if you are taking out more than you can afford. Understand your numbers. Think about what you plan to get out of the investment and how much you will realistically need to transform the property into a sellable home.
Be prepared to move quickly. This is why hard money loans are a great avenue to pursue funding to flip properties. Due to the high demand, seeing several offers on one property is not uncommon. If you wait too long, it may go to someone else before you have even had the opportunity to receive funding. Hard money loans can help you avoid this because they have a quick approval process.
Consider the help of a real estate agent. These agents are experts in your local markers and have insight into the buying process. They help you with questions and concerns, that way, you are not spending hours frustrated that could instead go to the buying process.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard will undergo surgery to address a lingering abdominal injury, according to multiple reports.
He will be reevaluated in at least six to eight weeks following the procedure, per Yahoo Sports’ Chris Haynes.
Lillard, who has dealt with the injury since the Tokyo Olympics last summer, has been out of Portland’s lineup since the calendar flipped to 2022. He last played on Dec. 31 in a road loss to the Los Angeles Lakers.
The six-time All-Star is averaging 24.0 points, 4.1 rebounds and 7.3 assists across 29 appearances this season. He has missed 11 games.
The Blazers are 16-24 and 10th in the Western Conference.

Get relief when mousing and speed up tabbing between fields
A proved alternative where finger clicking is restricted
- MAIN POINTS; Get relief when mousing and speed up tabbing between fields. A proved alternative where finger clicking is restricted. Pictured is the Triple pedal, with heavy plate base to stop slip and a jack point, to accept a single pedal which can be in a remote location.
- MORE INFORMATION: Activate mouse clicks. Three pedals factory configured to perform mouse button actions (Left pedal = left button, middle pedal= left button double click, right pedal = right button).
- To program the foot pedal there is a recessed switch located on the underside of the devices which you slide from Play to Programming Mode this creates a virtual removable disk (VRD) named KINESIS-FP on your computer or tablet. In the Active Folder resides a small text file name “pedals.txt.” This is the file used to configure the device. Almost all operating systems have the ability to load and edit plain or simple text, and that is why it is compatible with most operating systems without the use of special drivers.
- The Kinesis Advantage keyboard requires its own pedal.
- Waterproof versions are available where there is risk of moisture or fluids getting into the control module.
- Program any key action and/or macro. Re-programmable on any computer or tablet with a USB port to perform keyboard actions, macros, or to re-assign mouse button action.
- This Jack equipped model offers a fourth input using long-cabled single pedal (see code 18P007MP). Recessed programming switch accessible from underside of unit, except on waterproof units. Programming Mode also accessible by holding a pedal briefly while connecting USB cable to open virtual removable disk.
- Pedals are front-hinged and rounded for easy triggering, made from black, glass-reinforced nylon.
- Low profile design, combined with heavy steel base prevents unit from accidentally moving on the floor.
- Outer two pedals are adjustable by moving slightly closer together.
- Adjustable activation force.
- Compatible operating systems Savant Elite2 uses generic HID (human interface device) drivers provided by the operating system. It can be operated and programmed without any special drivers in most environments supporting USB devices, including the following operating systems with an available USB port:
- In Play Mode the Savant Elite2 emulates a generic keyboard and mouse. In Programming Mode it emulates a generic keyboard and removable disk. Programming Mode requires generic OS support for a removable disk, plus a text editing program or app that can edit and save a file as “plain text” or “simple text.” Most word processing and text editing programs have this capability.
- Macintosh OS X notes: OS X doesn’t support middle mouse button without using a third party driver such as that found at www.usboverdrive.com. Also, modifier actions from one USB device cannot modify the input of a second USB device due to limitations designed into the Apple operating system. Example: Shift, Control, Command, or Option keystrokes programmed into the foot pedal cannot modify the input of a separate USB keyboard or mouse. However, a key sequence like ‘Cmd-W’ or ‘Cmd-Shift-left arrow’ will work on a Macintosh if the entire sequence of keystrokes has been programmed into the foot pedal.
- Also available as a single pedal (see code 18P007MP)
- Compatibility: Windows 7, 8 and 10, Mac OS X, Linux, Android, ChromeConnectivity: Plug & Play USB 2.0
Warranty: 2 years
Cable Length: 2.8 metre

Lil Bruh Gwop’s single, Aura Glow, and Shatter Me Alone dominated the 2021 charts, and in just half a year we saw a skyrocket increase in streams to listeners just over the last 4 months. So this raises the question when will there be new music? Well, it’s on the way.
Gwop tells interviewers with a smile that “I have found myself very busy and actively induldged in art lately, so there is a lot of potential for this new project, it’s going to change the world,” but insists that he can reveal “nothing more” about it. We couldn’t be more happy for the young singer. Still admitting, “I’m really hyped. I’m finding comfort in myself, it feels like home at the studio. I never have adored this routine this much until now. There isn’t anywhere I‘d want to be right now.”
”During this time that I’ve been back at home writing, I’ve been able to creatively and freely express myself in a new manner that is unlike any form of me anyone has seen, it’s always fun to get in the studio and try new things which is so fun at times it doesn‘t even feel like we are cutting a record. We are just having fun.“ he continues, “I’m really excited to share what I’ve been working on, definitely.”
As for the success of “Shatter Me Alone” Gwop states, “It couldn’t have been possible without the fans, and supporters that have been listening to it nonstop — and really always tuning in no matter what, so I’m really proud and thankful for that. I’ve always wanted to do more experimental songs that help people that don’t feel like they don’t have a voice, express themselves loud.” adding “Very much as well as finding a home with different people so I’m extremely satisfied my song did that, absolutely.”
Lil Bruh’s other hit last year — the collaboration with (Lil Skil) Rainy Bear, “Aura Glow” — was highly anticipated and unexpected, but he believes it was a success “because of all of the charged energy and love it has in it, a lot of soul and healing.” adding, “I believe when you hear music with those kind of emotions, it can heal you and make you feel again, that’s what real music does.”

We’re at the transition point between Summer ending and Autumn commencing. The stores are filling up with jackets and coats and there’s a real shift in the colour palette with lots of burgundy and deeper tones.
Before we get into layering and thermals, I picked up something bright but appropriate for this in between stage. I spotted this playsuit on the River Island website and was instantly sold. I have the same one in a different colour combination of blue and green and the floral pattern is much finer. This one is bolder and brighter with a blend of pastel pink and deeper red tones along with some dark elements and pearls and sequins for a bit of shimmer.
I really love the shape and design with the high neck and long sleeves. The layered frill skirt is very flattering and the tie waist allows you to get the perfect fit.
I’ve kept the accessories simple with my pastel pink Kensington and a classic nude heel.

Female artists in Puerto Rico have often been mischaracterized, both intentionally and unintentionally by the times specially in the 50’s and 60’s. Women artists ALWAYS faced challenges due to gender biases in the mainstream fine art world, mainly do to higher male artist population, is a true fact that female artist encountered difficulties trading their work, and gaining recognition in such world.
Puerto Rico is no exception, but one thing that Puerto Rico has never lacked in the art world is Raw Talent… Olga Abizu, Myrna Baez and Noemi Ruiz are without doubt the 3 most important female artist that Puerto Rico has given rise in contemporary times. They have three very different style Albizu dominated the Abstract Expressionist movement while Noemi Ruiz mastered the abstraction and Myrna Baez the complex world of light. If you ask me who’s work is more talented I would only say that beauty and talent is in the eye of the beholder, so it should come as no surprise that art lovers constantly will debate which painters have the greatest talent among them so you be the judge.
Extremely talented woman even Marta Traba once wrote, that Myrna Baez is the most qualified person that she knew in the visual arts in Puerto Rico and thats a lot to say coming from one of the most notorious art critics in latin america. Myrna Báez work is coated with an intention of affirmation in the Puerto Rican Landscape employing and abstract yet subtle point of view while maintaining that Criollo flavor to the paintings as she tends to apply a color definition which blurs the way to allow more focus on the light, her work has always had a mayor landmark which is an intense preoccupation with light through the representation of various ambiguous levels in her paintings… EVERYTHING is Light in her work.
Myrna Baez also is consider one of the top printmakers of Puerto Rico studied with Lorenzo Omar at his workshop in San Juan and in the Pratt Institute in New York, which in 1970 she would win an award for her Printwork from the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) In New York. Baez work can be seen in most museum collection in Puerto Rico and this Year “La Compañia de Turismo de Puerto Rico” is dedicating la Campechada in Honor of her work, is needless to say that Myrna Baez has done it all from studies in different foreign country, to one of the best Master Printer of her time, to even resident artist from the USC which earn her a Doctor Honoris Causa in the year 2000.
Abstraction indicates a departure from reality in depiction of imaginary in art and Noemi Ruiz say “My language is abstract” so is easy to categorize her as a modern abstract painter. The gamma arrays of color are ALWAYS part of her painting,which necessarily demands or calls attention to the central geometrical composition and two-dimensionality of all of her paintings. The paintings below are perfect example of her work which are strictly characterized by primary bright colors, in the integration of white and black grid lines clearly defined her radical approach to a more modern touch which provides a sharp contrasts of form and color, creating compositions that do not have to be tied to a realistic picture
In 1974 she won First Prize in Painting at the Ateneo Puertorriqueño Competition, she also studied lithography at the University of California, Berkley and a Doctors Degree at the Universidad Central de Madrid. Noemi Ruiz in my opinion is one of the top female artist from Puerto Rico since she is one of the few artist including Olga Albizu that has a sense of dimension and space which is communicated through the vertical or horizontal alignment of the composition and through color as light, rather than through complex details.
The BEST female abstract expressionist painter that Puerto Rico has given to date her work is extremely simple but complex at the same time. Her composition where arrangement of carefully balanced squares, rectangles and anonymous object shapes with a medley of small, packed juxtaposed color pattern. Her painting can be seen in top american museum like the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Private collections like J.P Morgan Chase Collection any many more.
To this date she holds the title for the highest price paid to date for a Female Puerto Rican painting which sold at Christie’s New York in 2014 for $58,000.00.

There are still 7,500 tickets available for the Green Bay Packers game Sunday when they take on the San Francisco 49ers at Lambeau Field for the first round of the NFC play-offs.
Thing is … those 7,500 tickets have to be sold in order for fans to watch the game on network TV.
If the game doesn’t sell out – something that hasn’t happened since 1959 – the game will be blacked out on network television, according to a story in The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
NFL rules state a team has to report a sell-out 72 hours before kick-off, which means the Green-and-Gold have until 3:40 p.m. Thursday to get the last ticket sold. Ticket prices range from $102 to $125, the story reads.
On Twitter, the Packers’ official account was urging fans to attend the game, tweeting, “Keep Lambeau Loud, Get your #Packers playoff tickets: http://t.co/E34ZCf7ZpO #EveryVoiceCounts.”
The link sends visitors to Ticketmaster.
JS reporter Don Walker writes that Coach Mike McCarthy isn’t worried.
“We have great fans. These are the games our fans live for, so I really have no concern about it at all. I have confidence that whatever needs to be done will be done,” he is quoted as saying.
If the game is blacked out, fans will only be able to see it on the NFL Network on cable.

Brushing your teeth removes the plaque and bacteria that cause cavities. However, it’s not as effective in removing staining caused by consuming substances like coffee, red wine, and even berries. For that kind of discoloration, you’ll need teeth whitening in Weber Corpus Christi. While you can buy whitening products from a drugstore, they just aren’t as effective as professional whitening.
Our teeth whitening treatments will:
- Help you feel more confident about your smile
- Brighten your smile several shades so it looks better in person and in photos
- Eliminate the dinginess that can prematurely age your smile
- Offer fast whitening in our office or convenient brightening at home
Treat Yourself To Teeth Whitening At The Dentist
Similar to the difference between hair color in a salon vs. drugstore products used at home, our teeth whitening treatments from Whiter Image give you superior results. That’s because they have a higher percentage of ingredients that get teeth white. In addition, you’ll benefit from:
- Sturdy Trays – If you’ve tried drugstore products, you’ve probably been frustrated by their messy strips or flimsy trays that aren’t designed to last. Our trays make it easy to apply the whitening gel without irritating gums.
- Our Support – If you have questions, there’s no need to search online to look for answers. You can simply call our team for all the support you need.
Keep Improving Your Smile With Additional Cosmetic Treatments
Once your teeth are white, you may also want to:
- Cover Smile Flaws – You can conceal imperfections like gaps, chips, and misshapen teeth with custom-made dental veneers or dental bonding.
- Highlight Your Teeth – If minor issues like small chips or uneven edges detract from your smile, you can eliminate them with a teeth contouring treatment. If your gums stand out more than your teeth, we can remove excess gum tissue with a reshaping procedure.
For teeth whitening in Weber Corpus Christi, call Sabal Dental at 361-209-8741 or use our to schedule.

The power of a good story is something we as salespeople can’t afford to ignore. Here’s how and why you need to consider adding the skill of storytelling to your sales tool kit.
Stories Have The Power To Influence
Storytellers have influenced public opinion over the course of history.
Have you ever noticed how political candidates weave stories of ordinary people into their speeches?
“Bob, the auto worker from Detroit who had to take a second job in order to feed his family…Carol, the retired widow from New Hampshire who had to go back to work in order to make ends meet…”
Because politicians know what storytellers have known for centuries: stories draw us in, involve us emotionally, and influence the way we think, feel and ultimately, act.
Stories Are Easy To Remember
Think about how many stories you can recall that happened hundreds or thousands of years before you were even born.
You probably don’t remember setting out to memorize the story of Moses, Sleeping Beauty or urban legends like the lover’s lane murderer with a hook for a hand, yet there they are, ingrained in your memory.
On the other hand, you might not remember what you did last Tuesday or what your spouse asked you to pick up at the store this morning.
The power of a good story is something we as salespeople can’t afford to ignore.
Lets look at how and why you need to consider adding the skill of storytelling to your sales tool kit:
Why Integrate Stories Into Your Sales Process?
A short, well-crafted story can drive home your point better than a dozen busy Powerpoint slides. Stories package your message in a way that a listener can easily digest.
The real secret to their power, according to master storyteller Annette Simmons, is this: “Stories give people freedom to come to their own conclusions.”
And if a prospect has arrived at their own conclusion, doesn’t that make your job as a salesperson that much easier?
Stories Give You Credibility
All day long a prospect listens to salespeople tell them how great their products or services are.
It’s no wonder they get a little jaded.
Not only is a story a refreshing break from that first person horn-blowing, but it also effectively hands over the burden of proof to an objective third-party, significantly increasing your credibility.
Stories Help Us Connect
Cold hard facts and figures rarely move people. Put a face on those facts, however, and it’s hard to stay detached.
Call it the Mother Teresa effect: “If I look at the mass, I will never act. If I look at the one, I will.”
Stories Are “Sticky”
A great idea is great only to the extent that it is remembered.
Our ability to remember is significantly impacted by emotion and since stories can create emotion, the right story can ensure that your message is top of mind when busy prospects are ready to make a decision.
We want our ideas to be what Chip and Dan Heath in their book, “Made to Stick” call “sticky,” which they define as: Understandable, memorable, and effective in changing thought or behavior.
The Heath brothers go on to explore why some ideas stick and how we can improve the chances of our ideas being remembered.
One of the methods they suggested as a way to make an idea stick is through the use of stories.
Leverage Stories To Stand Out From Your Competition
In a competitive market where prospects are short on time and attention, sellers who leverage the power of stories to deliver their message in an entertaining and compelling way can create an emotional connection with their prospects and significantly increase their chances of winning business.
Stories are a powerful sales tool for differentiating yourself and your product or service from the competition.
The exercises in the Improvised Sales Intelligence™️ Book of Play by Gina Trimarco give you the tools, tactics, and techniques to become a more effective and agile communicator in spontaneous sales conversations.

STANDUP COMEDY SENSATION:
When The Bug read James Massola’s analysis in The Sun-Herald of Scott Morrison’s chances at the looming federal election, we did two things.
Firstly, we made sure we weren’t reading a Newscorpse Australia publication. We weren’t but it’s hard to tell the difference any more.
Secondly, we realised the man’s a natural comic so we booked out an intimate venue in Rooty Hill and begged James to try out his material in a public space. Okay, we provided a few of the gags but the opening and the end are all his own work!
What can we say? the man’s a natural standup so our advice to Dave Hughes, Jimeon, Carl Barron, Wil Anderson … WATCH YOUR BACKS!

Lisa P. Nathan: Would you like to revisit the question on whether – if you revoke detainees’ privileges to go to the cafeteria, then . . .
Yeah. No, I just would like to say that if there is a sanction taken to prevent the detainees to, to go to the cafeteria, it means he will be served in his cell, in his compound especially. Not in the cell but in the compound to prevent him moving around, yes.
LPN: I understand. So when – in your time here if you can reflect back, has there been one or two things that have surprised you about how things as you implemented – you know, it was no longer a theory, here’s the implementation of the detention facility. What has surprised you about that?
What surprised me was that at the beginning it was – I was a little bit worried to dealing with these kinds of people because well educated people, high ranking people high ranking military people and also ministers and politician.
And, I was (___), I was worried if I really I can, I can, what they say, the challenge; if I can do it. And then I did it. This has surprised me. I’m surprised that I am someone who is really capable to do these kinds of things.
LPN: So what was it, like a spec- . . .
Give me a very big confident, yes.
LPN: Can you give me a, a specific thing of what you thought they might do in there because of their educational backgrounds? What problems they might – a specific idea of what you were worried might happen?
Because at the beginning they, everything – they were doing what, whatever they want. Whatever they want they will do it. They will bring everything inside the prison; money and everything. And the investigator are coming and doing whatever they want. And then we put an end of that and then we put order.
And then we start building a different compound. There was two or three big compound; now we have 18 compound. And we impose the closing of cells and then they cannot move as they want. Before they were moving as they want. And all those things they went to write a lot of letters, they went even on a hunger strike but we maintain our position and then we, really, we win. Yeah . . .
LPN: So . . .
We, we were able to maintain a kind of discipline and order in the detention. Yeah.
LPN: So when you first arrived . . .
Because even before some of our, our prison officers, even security officers were fearing, because they were saying, “I am a minister, I am a general, I am a colonel, I am a major.” And then they, they, they behave like a colonel, like a general, like a minister.
I said, “No, here you are a detained person and you must obey. Nothing that. You’re not a minister.” And even at the, at the tribunal, there they were, at the beginning, they were treated as a minister, they were even scared to handcuff them. No, we have to treat them as a detainee but on a human way of course.

Dating With Schizophrenia
Dating might presumably perhaps be hard for somebody. A severe mental health condition esteem schizophrenia provides even more challenges to the mix. Now and then, it is going to trigger psychotic behaviors, esteem hallucinations and delusional conception processes. In severe cases, dating will be out of the search info from. Even supposing your condition is well-treated, it is seemingly you’ll presumably perhaps presumably even get difficulty taking half in activities. It might possibly presumably perhaps be hard for you to gift your emotions, too.
As a consequence, many other folks with schizophrenia procure it laborious to begin relationships and serve them. Others keep a long way from all of it collectively. But some are able to get wholesome relationships. Once you get schizophrenia otherwise you’re romantically fervent with somebody who does, right here’s what you wish to know.
It Would possibly presumably perhaps merely Not Be Appropriate for You
You may presumably perhaps additionally no longer ever undoubtedly feel esteem or have the opportunity to pursue a romantic relationship — and that’s OK. “Your signs might presumably perhaps even win within the plot of socializing or trust you anxious,” says Lionel S. Wininger, PhD, a psychologist at Montefiore Scientific Middle in Recent York Metropolis.
But whenever you’re in remedy and your condition is well-managed, it will seemingly be one thing to study out. Though many other folks with schizophrenia enact win worse, others enact enhance and might presumably perhaps get a hit relationships.
It might possibly presumably perhaps take some time to procure a remedy opinion that works. You may presumably perhaps additionally wish to wait weeks or even months sooner than it fully takes build. Request the doctor who treats your schizophrenia within the event that they undoubtedly feel your opinion is working and you’re ready. Along with remedy, you’ll wish to focus on standard of living complications. “To illustrate, whenever you exercise the evening at one more person’s apartment, enact you get a opinion for guaranteeing you’re able to take your remedy on time desk?” says Alex Dimitriu, MD, a psychiatrist and the founder of Menlo Park Psychiatry & Sleep Medication in California.
You also need trust about how the leisure of your lifestyles is going. “Regularity is valuable whenever you get schizophrenia, and dating can disrupt that,” Dimitriu says. Once you’re going thru one other gigantic alternate, esteem a fresh job, location, or remedy opinion, it is seemingly you’ll presumably perhaps presumably also wish to wait till you’re settled to study out dating.
How Produce You Let Them Know?
There get been predominant advances in remedy for this condition over the final several decades.
However the person you’re seeing might presumably perhaps get unfriendly ideas about what it is. To illustrate, they might presumably perhaps even trust you get numerous personalities or that you frequently hallucinate.
They would possibly presumably perhaps even no longer know that almost all of us that dwell with it aren’t violent and that remedy can ease and even forestall psychosis.
That’s why it is seemingly you’ll presumably perhaps presumably also wish to wait till you’ve long gone out with somebody a couple of times to vow them you get it. “Once the person has gotten to know you pretty, it is going to also very well be more uncomplicated for them to behold that you don’t fit the stereotype of someone with schizophrenia,” Wininger says.
Once you’re ready, allow them to know you’d esteem to focus on one thing deepest. You may presumably perhaps additionally narrate one thing esteem, “I wish to portion one thing well-known with you. It’s hard to focus on, and I am hoping you’ll hear me out.” Dimitriu says to cease merely and emphasize the determined.
To illustrate, it is seemingly you’ll presumably perhaps presumably also narrate, “I undoubtedly get schizophrenia, nonetheless it’s well-managed and I’ve been symptom-free for X series of months or years.” Scream that it’s a lasting mental disorder that will presumably perhaps impression the plot you think, undoubtedly feel, and behave. Additionally allow them to know that while it can trigger severe signs, it is seemingly you’ll presumably perhaps moreover treat it so that you retain a long way from these complications one day.
It’s that it is seemingly you’ll presumably perhaps presumably also trust of that your accomplice might presumably perhaps get a detrimental reaction after they uncover. Know that shock and discomfort are well-liked. If the person cares for you and wishes to serve seeing you, they’ll procure a technique to enhance you.
Suggestions to Get Dating Better
If your doctor provides you the golf green mild and you genuinely feel ready:
Defend your expectations in test. Even supposing your condition is well-managed and you genuinely feel trusty, get in mind that it is going to also trigger social apprehension and other complications that will presumably perhaps trust it a salvage 22 situation up to now. You’ve gotten difficulty with focal point or flat impression (when your tell and facial expressions don’t explicit your emotions). You may presumably perhaps additionally no longer be in contact as worthy as other of us enact, which can trust it hard to be in contact. It might possibly presumably perhaps serve to work thru rather numerous these complications with a therapist. You’ll procure techniques to truly feel better about your self and your condition.
Salvage it boring. Stress can trust schizophrenia more difficult to manage. That’s why it’s dapper to ease staunch into a relationship. You may presumably perhaps additionally wish to make a selection low-key activities, esteem a meetup for coffee or a inch collectively, on your early dates. If it heats up, “It’s well-known to study out to serve the leisure of your lifestyles as habitual as that it is seemingly you’ll presumably perhaps presumably also trust of so it is seemingly you’ll presumably perhaps presumably also persist alongside with your remedy opinion,” Dimitriu says.
Know that sexual facet effects are total. Your medications might presumably perhaps even impression your hobby in intercourse or capacity to win aroused or elevate out orgasm. Once you enact get sexual facet effects from remedy, talk over alongside with your doctor and accomplice about them. It might possibly presumably perhaps also serve to change medications.
Salvage a crew capacity. Once you and your accomplice win severe, it is seemingly you’ll presumably perhaps presumably also wish to bring them to a doctor’s appointments or remedy classes. “A dedicated accomplice presumably knows you better than your health care provider does,” Wininger says. “They will signal in with you and can assist you hearken to particular signs [that you need to adjust your treatment], esteem feeling more down than usual.” A accomplice’s enhance might presumably perhaps be one more plot to dwell better with schizophrenia.

Caomhan is the patron saint of Inisheer (Inis Oírr), the smallest of the Aran Islands. Even though he is “by far the most celebrated of all the saints of the Aran Islands”. He is said to have been a disciple of Saint Enda of Aran. He is also said to be the elder brother of Saint Kevin of Glendalough although no corresponding legend exists in Co Wicklow to support this claim.
The ruins of Caomhan’s Church (Teampall Caomhán) are below ground level. The church was nearly buried by drifting sands but has now been excavated and is kept clear of sand by the islanders. According to the notice prepared by the Office of Public Works, the building may date from the 10th century. All that remains visible of this structure today is the chancel. A century or so after this was built, the rest of the building gave way for a wider nave. The lintel over the original western doorway was reused in the enlarged building to become the entrance from the nave to the priest’s residence. Three other features date from the late medieval period: the head of the chancel arch, the pointed doorway in the south wall of the nave and the priest’s residence. The grave of St Caomhan (Leaba Chaomhain or Caomhán’s bed) is located to the north-east of the church. In recent times it has been roofed to resist the incursion of blown sand from the surrounding dunes. It is a tradition on the island to spend the vigil of the saint’s feast praying at his grave. It has been written that people were cured of illness here.

Ok, I promise, this is it with the Meyer lemons. You’re sick of them–after this post, and that post–I know, I know. And when Lindy drew lemons (that sort of look like Meyer lemons) into my banner this month, who knew I’d be writing so much about them? Unless this was Lindy’s master plan? What if she works for the Meyer lemon industry? What if her banners are prophecies and whatever she draws in them comes true? What if next month’s banner features me…DEAD?! This is like an episode of the X-Files!
But even Mulder and Scully would tell me to come off it and just get to the recipe for that gorgeous-looking pie in the lead photo.
DeNiro did it for “Raging Bull,” and now I’ve done it for this month’s banner. That’s right, check out the new plus-sized me floating up there in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Once again, kudos to Lindy Groening for another stellar illustration, and to Justin for puffing the air into all those balloons.
Yes that’s me up there in this month’s delicious new banner–another masterwork from Lindy–having baked The Great Pumpkin into a Great Pumpkin pie. (If you can’t see it, clear your cache and reload the site.) Thanks, of course, to the uber-talented Lindy and the ever-helpful Justin for making the site look great, as always.
Pledge allegiance to this month’s banner, designed by our brilliantly patriotic illustrator, Lindy. Thanks to her and thanks to Justin for installing it. Now for a very important question: what’s Blue Nun??
Clear your cache and reload the site, if you dare. You’ll never look at Peeps the same way again!
Thanks to Lindy, Leah and Justin for their work bringing another awesome banner to life.
A round of applause, please, to my followers on Twitter who wrote most of the text for the candy hearts in this month’s banner–brilliantly illustrated, as usual, by Lindy. (Can’t see the banner? Clear your cache and re-load the site.) A special shout-out to my friend Katy who contributed THOUSANDS of ideas and to Amanda Hesser who came up with “You Had Me At Jello.” Make sure to subscribe to my Twitter feed (just go to www.twitter.com/amateurgourmet) and maybe you’ll see your ideas in next month’s banner.
And special thanks, as usual, to Leah & Justin for doing all the dirty technical work to make this banner possible. The A.G. Team is the best.
You can all breath a collective sigh of relief: this, I’m pleased to announce, is the very last post of my 5th Year Anniversary Week. Ok, maybe I went a little too far profiling anyone whose visage ever graced these pages, but, I must confess, it was quite a kick taking such a long stroll down this blog’s memory lane. Our final gesture is to give some credit where credit is due–that is to credit The A.G. Team, the people who keep this blog running.
Starting on the top left you’ll see Leah McCombe who gave this blog its beautiful, useful, whimsical and memorable design; next, on the upper right, is Ben Lim who is my savior and saint–he responds to all my pesky IMs when the blog goes down (which it’s been doing quite a lot lately)–and, more importantly, he’s the one who programmed all of Leah’s design and brought this blog to life; beneath Ben is the irreplaceable Lindy Groening who illustrates our awesome, hilariously kooky banners each month (she really is amazing: if I dream it, she can do it!), and–finally–next to her is Justin Dickinson who started here as an intern and graduated to our design team where he seamlessly uploads Lindy’s banners as soon as she’s done with them.
I’m really proud to call these guys my A.G. Team and I’m so, so, so grateful for their generous, thankless work. (Well, I hope it’s not entirely thankless.) I decided to ask them all a few questions which they’ve answered for you below. Let’s hear what The A.G. Team has to say.
Fans of Lindy’s banners are really going to dig this month’s riff on Thanksgiving. Click on over from your Reader; if you still see trick-or-treating candidates, clear your cache and load it up again. Thanks, again, to my awesome team of banner makers: Lindy, Leah, Justin & Ben. You guys are the best; gobble, gobble.

When Dr. Jeff Harries was invited to join a Zoom call with some of his colleagues in Interior Health, he probably thought nothing of it. Though he's now retired, the Penticton-based physician – like all of us these days – has become accustomed to these virtual meetings.
This call was different though: a dozen of Dr. Harries' colleagues and friends had gathered to surprise him with an award recognizing his years of advocacy on behalf of patients with alcohol use disorder.
The Primary Care and Substance Use Trail Blazer Award was presented by the BC Centre on Substance Use (BCCSU) in recognition of the many years that Dr. Harries has tirelessly advocated for alcohol use disorder to be understood as a treatable medical condition. His message: taken temporarily and as a complement to counselling and other supports, medications can successfully help just about everyone reduce consumption by easing cravings and withdrawal symptoms.
"It's such a tremendous honour to be able to recognize Dr. Jeff Harries for his many, many contributions," says Cheyenne Johnson, executive director of the BCCSU.
"We're not only presenting Dr. Harries with this Primary Care and Substance Use Trail Blazer Award as the inaugural recipient, he's also the inspiration behind the creation on the award," she says. "His tireless leadership as a health advocate and his unwavering commitment to improving how we treat people with alcohol use disorder has inspired colleagues and impacted the lives of countless people. We thank him from the bottom of our hearts.”
Over the past four years, Dr. Harries has given more than 150 presentations, reaching 4,000 individuals across BC. His approachability and infectious passion for improving medical care for such a long-neglected substance use disorder has helped move clinicians forward in their knowledge about effective treatment options. His efforts have been so noteworthy that he was profiled in The Globe & Mail.
"Jeff has provided hope for everyone in the circle of care of alcohol use disorder patients," says Lori Motluk, who's board chair of the Canadian Alcohol Use Disorder Society (CAUDS) – an organization that Dr. Harries helped found.
"His philosophy is that alcohol use disorder is a chronic brain disorder that can be treated scientifically through the short-term use of medications. His respectful approach has inspired patients, renewing their hope of managing their chronic disorder and connecting with family and community. Physicians and clinicians who have followed his practice are sharing their stories further promoting Jeff’s work."
At the award presentation, colleagues of Dr. Harries shared their reflections on Dr. Harries' impact on the medical community and their own professional development, noting how he's begun his outreach work when no one else was there to support him, displaying perseverance and conviction that has inspired countless clinicians to follow his lead.
“On behalf of Interior Health, I’d like to congratulate Dr. Harries for this well-deserved recognition," says Susan Brown, President & CEO of Interior Health. "He truly is a trail blazer, having worked tirelessly over the years to promote the treatment of alcohol use disorder and spread the word about the successful medications that have helped so many people in their recovery.”
A sign of his commitment, when he found out the BCCSU was developing provincial guidelines for high risk drinking and alcohol use disorder, he wrote the team with a simple question: "How can I help?"
Dr. Harries joined the guideline writing committee and immediately began presenting the key recommendations throughout the province and beyond – all with the goal of making improvements to screening, prevention, treatment, and care for people with alcohol use disorder.
Motluk puts it simply: "He thought and acted big!"

Larry Sanders is an awesome defender. It's pretty simple, really. He's long, athletic, mobile and altogether anatomically designed to frustrate offensive players in the paint. Sanders transforms the Milwaukee Bucks into an outstanding defensive team. When he's on the floor, the Bucks are better than the best defense in the NBA. When he heads to the bench, they turn into a bottom-five unit.
The stats go deep. NBA teams have converted 58.4 percent of shots inside five feet this season, but opponents only hit 51.4 percent against the Bucks when Sanders is on the floor. When he's out that number jumps to 60.0 percent. As of Jan. 10, Larry Sanders leads the NBA in total blocks (107), blocks per game (3.24) and blocks per 48 minutes (6.3).
He doesn't just swap shots into the stands, either. Controlled deflections end possessions and lead to fast break opportunities, and thankfully Sanders seems passionate about maximizing the value of each block. That makes him doubly intimidating -- the stakes are especially high for opponents who test his skills -- and even when he can't get his hand on a shot he has probably affected the trajectory of the release.
It's not all sunshine and rainbows with Larry Sanders. His propensity to foul can still become problematic, but to a certain extent the fouls come part and parcel with Larry's predisposition to challenge every attempt he encounters around the rim.
He could stand to learn that sometimes, when you aren't in good position to challenge a shot, it's okay to concede a bucket or two in the paint to avoid costly fouls that would otherwise keep you off the floor. It's likely a lesson best absorbed in the playoffs, where every minute is precious and teams employ schemes to knock out big men with fouls. Hopefully Larry will discover that he can become even more effective if he selectively curbs his enthusiasm for blocks in certain situations.
I spent the early portion of the season [ 1 | 2 | 3 ] pumping up Larry Sanders as the next big thing for the Bucks, but it's time for a more extended celebration. In that vein, allow me to introduce my first post in a series dedicated to every Sanders block of the 2012-13 season.
(1) Have fun and highlight the one true bright spot of the 12-13 Milwaukee Bucks.
(2) Present and analyze every block by Larry Sanders this season.
(3) Rank the entire collection of blocks based on a combination of factors:
- Effectiveness - did the block result in an immediate change of possession? The blocked shots most worth celebrating are the ones that the Bucks recover and turn into fastbreak opportunities. Sending a shot out of bounds looks cool, but the opponent gets the ball back and for another look at the rim. The best shot blockers focus their efforts on taking shot opportunities away from the other team, so this factor is the most important one to me.
- Timeliness - did Sanders turn back a shot attempt at a key moment in the game?
- Initimidation - was the swat so emphatic (or so easy) that it negatively impacted an opponent for the rest of the night?
- Style - was the rejection so damn beautiful that it launched the crowd into chants of "Larry, Larry, Larry!" at home or sucked the air out of an arena on the road?

Reacting to new music trends, Bollywood-focused AVS entertainment show widens scope of its 'Top
One of the most popular features of venerable AVS (Asian Variety Show) during the weekly New Jersey-based global Bollywood entertainment news program’s 30-year run has been it’s regular Top 10 Music countdown, traditionally made up mostly of Bollywood movie songs.
“If I don’t have it up one week, I get so many hate emails!” says AVS founder/producer Raju Sethi of the Top 10 segment, which shows short bits of 10 mostly Bollywood soundtrack videos along with title, movie and artist identification.
“My Top 10 serves like a little marketplace as these songs need to be listened to and downloaded,” adds Sethi. “Everyone’s busy, so how do you know what to listen to anymore? You look at our Top 10, and if you like a snippet, you can download and listen to the full song.”
But Sethi also notes that “the charts have kind of fizzled out” at AVS, at least in terms of Bollywood soundtrack songs. Indeed, regular viewers of the program have observed an increasing number of non-movie songs infiltrating the Top 10 Music countdown.
“We were left no choice,” explains Sethi. “We sat here racking our brains and said, ‘Man, nothing good [songwise] is coming out now!' People are dishing out remakes, or taking songs by indie artists and popping them in movies. So why waste time doing Top 10 soundtrack songs? We might as well showcase artists whose music will be in movies later.”
More important, Sethi continues, “We go out and speak to people, and they’re not talking about film soundtracks anymore but indie artists: There are a lot of indie things that are really good on YouTube with millions of views but don’t actually make it to Bollywood and get the boost they deserve--and we focus on Bollywood and that scene. So we’ve started doing the reverse now in getting new artists and putting whatever we like into the Top 10--whatever we see racking up views on YouTube and Apple Music and Spotify.”
According to Sethi, "the industry isn’t paying attention to charts anymore.”
“I hate to say it, but they’re more interested in YouTube views because that’s how they determine which artists to support and how much money to invest in promoting--and it’s where they make their money.”
The AVS Top Ten Music chart, though, has always offered a somewhat subjective means of suggesting music choices.
“It’s like saying, ‘This is what you should be listening to,’” says Sethi. “We determine the positions based partly on traction--looking at all the the various media play a track gets. Then we use our own creative input: Sometimes there might be a famous artist who has a huge following with a track that’s not that good with millions of views--but that doesn’t mean they like the song. So we go with what the audience likes and what they’re used to, but if something new is so radical that we think should be heard, I’ll put that up as well. So we don’t just go only by traction.”
Hence AVS’s move toward greater exposure of indie artist videos as opposed to solely Bollywood movie music clips from established Bolly playback singers.
“One of the reasons for this is that Bollywood has started using a lot of songs made popular by indie artists in the movies,” says Sethi, singling out Punjabi singer-songwriter Guru Randhawa, who made his Bollywood singing debut in last year’s Irrfan Khan starrer Hindi Medium.
“His songs are so popular that they’re putting them in films and making new videos. They’re being used pretty much as background--but they’re selling the movies: LIke ‘Suit Suit’ in Hindi Medium, which came out almost a year prior to that and was a huge hit. So they used it in the movie and took it to a whole new level and he became a staple at the major label T-Series--which signed him--and he’s doing one big hit after another, including another chartbuster, ‘Ban ja rani,’ from Tumhari Sulu , and another great song, ‘High Rated Gabru,’ that’s now coming out with special appearances by Bollywood actors in Nawabzaade.”
“So all these indie artists are getting tracks in Bollywood movies, and Bollywood movie soundtracks otherwise are mostly either songs that have already been recorded, or songs that are remakes,” continues Sethi, citing the upcoming romantic drama Dhadak, set to launch the acting career of late Bollywood legend Sridevi’s daughter Janhvi Kapoor: “The whole movie is a remake of a popular Marathi language film [Sairat] and uses remakes of popular songs, too.”
Sethi also makes note of the forthcoming film Lavatri, which incorporates a famous Gujarati folk song into the film that is being used as its selling point.
He sees that not only is there “not a lot of good original Bollywood music coming out,” but that the rare good music that does “stays in the Top 10 forever.”
“Turnover time is so slow now that if you end up finding five really good songs from Bollywood films in the Top 10, you need to keep them in longer because no good ones are coming out--and you don’t want to plop in a song just because it’s new but because it’s deserving. So we decided not to restrict the countdown to Bollywood but include independent music.”
But Sethi feels that the two genres mix well together, even within AVS’s Bollywood context. In fact, “regional music, indie music, and hip-hop are becoming Bollywood,” he concludes. “So Bollywood music is no longer its own genre, but a good blend of ‘just music.’”

Federal Councillor Ignazio Cassis visits key partner countries in the Mekong region
From 1 to 6 August, Federal Councillor Ignazio Cassis is travelling to Thailand, Laos and Vietnam. Switzerland maintains specific and long-standing relations with the three countries. All three are members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) – an important regional organisation for Switzerland. The region is also home to many Swiss nationals. On the trip, Mr Cassis hopes to gain an insight into how Swiss expatriate communities are faring in times of COVID.

Asia has become much more important to Switzerland as a continent in recent years, and Switzerland has long-standing diplomatic relations with various Asian countries. It has also been present in many countries in the region for decades as part of its development cooperation activities. Asian countries are popular holiday destinations for the Swiss, and many Swiss nationals have made their homes there. And bilateral cooperation has been stepped up in many areas, such as trade and industry, research and innovation.
The 'impressive momentum' that the Asian region has developed in recent years "looks set to continue in the immediate future," as Ignazio Cassis writes in Switzerland's Foreign Policy Strategy 2020–23. The Federal Council therefore attaches great importance to the development of relations with Asian countries. To this end, Switzerland is to combine bilateral cooperation with greater engagement with regional organisations, such as the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
- The Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) is an intergovernmental forum for dialogue and cooperation that addresses political, economic, social and cultural issues with the aim of deepening ties between Asia and Europe. Switzerland joined the ASEM in 2012.
- The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) with its ten member states is the most important regional organisation in Southeast Asia. ASEAN facilitates regional integration and cooperation and promotes peace and security, prosperity, and human development. Switzerland was conferred the status of ASEAN sectoral dialogue partner in 2016.
When Ignazio Cassis travels to the Mekong region in early August, he will visit Thailand, Laos and Vietnam – three countries that are members of both the ASEM and ASEAN. Switzerland maintains specific bilateral relations with all three countries – 2021 marks 90 years of diplomatic relations with Thailand and 50 years with Vietnam – and it seeks to further develop these ties, particularly in terms of trade. In Laos the focus is on development cooperation, which is set to be intensified in the next few years. The Mekong region is also home to many Swiss nationals. Mr Cassis is keen to take advantage of his trip to gain an insight into how the expatriate Swiss community is faring in the face of the coronavirus pandemic.
1–3 August: Bangkok, Thailand
A rich and varied programme awaits Federal Councillor Cassis during his visit to the Thai capital.
1 August celebrations
To mark Swiss National Day, Mr Cassis will give a talk from the Swiss embassy in Bangkok that will be broadcast online addressing Swiss expatriate communities in the consular district of the Bangkok embassy across Southeast Asia (Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar and Malaysia). Asia is home to a significant number of Swiss expatriates, and Thailand has the largest Swiss community in Asia, numbering around 10,000.
90th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations
During his trip, the head of the FDFA will pay tribute to 90 years of bilateral relations with Thailand. The Treaty of Friendship and Commerce between the two countries was signed back in 1931. Over the last nine decades, relations between Switzerland and Thailand have continued to grow, and now cover many fields. As well as frequent political dialogue, the two countries have developed economic and commercial relations, and held constructive discussions on education and training, research, tourism, climate change and the promotion of carbon-neutral energies.
Ignazio Cassis will meet various contacts from the Thai government, in particular his counterpart Don Pramudwinai, prime minister Prayut Chan-o-cha, and the ministers responsible for health and the environment. The talks will address the anniversary of bilateral relations; the political situation – in particular the conflicts in the south of the country where Switzerland is involved in the mediation process; economic and consular relations; the pandemic; and climate change.
Deepening of cooperation in economic and consular areas
Thailand is one of Switzerland's most important commercial partners in Southeast Asia. It is an influential member of the Association of Southeast Asian Countries (ASEAN), Switzerland's key dialogue partner in the region.
The trip will be an opportunity to meet Swiss economic and tourism actors that are well established in Thailand, to sign a consular agreement, and to inaugurate the Bangkok office of the Swiss-Thai Chamber of Commerce, which was recently set up at the Swiss embassy.
Public health situation
During his trip, Mr Cassis is keen to get an insight into the public health situation on the ground, which also affects many Swiss nationals. Swiss Humanitarian Aid already sent around a hundred ventilators and over a million antigen tests to Thailand at the end of July.
Federal Councillor Cassis hands over medical supplies
On 2 August, Federal Councillor Ignazio Cassis attended a ceremony to hand over to the Thai authorities a consignment of humanitarian supplies dispatched by Switzerland last week.
Switzerland's donation of approximately 100 respirators and over one million antigen test kits was made in response to an increase in COVID-19 infections in Thailand.
3-4 August: Vientiane, Laos
Ignazio Cassis's trip to Vientiane is an important leg in his tour of Southeast Asia, nine years after the last visit to Laos by a federal councillor. Switzerland has been present in Laos since 1995 with its development cooperation activities, and will renew its commitment with a new programme starting in 2022. This cooperation, which is conducted as part of Switzerland's Mekong regional programme, will be the central theme of Mr Cassis's meeting with Sonexay Siphandone, the Laotian deputy prime minister responsible for planning and investment, in Vientiane on 4 August.
As part of the Mekong regional programme, Switzerland works to help build inclusive societies, particularly in Cambodia and Laos, by promoting equitable and sustainable development and democratic governance. To help support rural populations, Switzerland carries out activities in local governance and citizen participation, agriculture and food security as well as vocational skills development and employment.
Ignazio Cassis's trip to Vientiane will involve three elements:
The signing of a cooperation agreement
The SDC opened an initial cooperation office in the Laotian capital Vientiane in 2006, and will launch its new four-year programme starting in 2022. During his visit, Mr Cassis will also sign a cooperation agreement with Sonexay Siphandone, which will establish a solid legal framework and clear rules for the efficient implementation of the programme for the next four years. The programme seeks to deepen cooperation in the areas of jobs and vocational skills development, agriculture and food security, climate change mitigation and adaptation, improving local governance and citizen participation, and humanitarian aid in Laos.
Through this agreement, the two partners undertake to respect democratic principles and fundamental rights, the Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 Agenda, and the Paris Climate Agreement.
Visit to a quarantine centre for migrant workers
The head of the FDFA will also visit a quarantine centre for migrant workers returning to their country. The centre is the result of collaboration between the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), and the Swiss and local Red Cross. The WFP support in these quarantine camps illustrates the extensive multilateral cooperation between Laos and Switzerland, which also extends to the global response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Inauguration of the new consular agency in Vientiane
A consular agency located at the Swiss cooperation office in Vientiane opened in 2020, but its inauguration was delayed due to the pandemic. However, COVID-19 has shown that preserving and expanding a consular network is essential for Switzerland. The agency in Vientiane will therefore reinforce this network of representations, and support the regional consular centre in Bangkok. A second consular agency is planned to open soon in Luang Prabang.
On the whole, the economic situation in Laos is gloomy – the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a major socio-economic crisis that is compounding existing challenges and pushing growing numbers of people below the poverty line. During his trip, Mr Cassis will therefore emphasise the unique relations of solidarity and cooperation that exist between Laos and Switzerland.
4–6 August: Hanoi, Vietnam
Ignazio Cassis's trip to Vietnam will focus on strengthening economic ties between the two countries. The head of the FDFA will meet with Vietnam's vice president Vo Thi Anh Xuan and foreign minister Bui Thanh Son in Hanoi on 5 August. Mr Cassis will use this opportunity to launch the new cooperation strategy of the State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) for the period 2021–24. The visit also marks the 50th anniversary of bilateral relations between Switzerland and Vietnam.
30 years of development cooperation
Vietnam, as an economically emerging country, has seen a large and rapid increase in its trade with Switzerland. A brief look back at the history of Switzerland's international cooperation in Vietnam illustrates how the country has evolved during this period. From 1991 onwards, Swiss support focused on poverty reduction. In 2016, the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) ended its long-term bilateral development cooperation with Vietnam as the country had been recategorised as a lower middle-income country. Many SDC projects have made a real impact in the country. For example, 25,000 families have seen their incomes grow through better marketing of key products from Vietnamese agriculture, such as spices, bamboo and tea. In addition, Swiss involvement helped bring about a participatory democracy, at least in the regions in which the SDC was operating.
SECO's new cooperation strategy
In the meantime, through SECO, Switzerland promotes reliable and stable economic framework conditions, small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), and access to international markets. This is also reflected in SECO's new cooperation strategy, which builds on past achievements. The strategy's main objective is to achieve sustainable growth and economic prosperity that is increasingly supported by private sector initiatives. The strategy's focus areas include strengthening public finance administration and modernising the financial sector.

Chile Pepper Bedding Plants… over 500 varieties from Cross Country Nurseries, shipping April to mid-June. Fresh pods ship September and early October. Go here
Chile Pepper Seeds… from all over the world from the Chile Pepper Institute. Go here
According to many accounts, chile peppers were introduced into what is now the U.S. by Capitán General Juan de Oñate, the founder of Santa Fe, in 1598. However, they may have been introduced to the Pueblo Indians of New Mexico by the Antonio Espejo expedition of 1582-83. According to one of the members of the expedition, Baltasar Obregón, “They have no chile, but the natives were given some seed to plant.” By 1601, chiles were not on the list of Indian crops, according to colonist Francisco de Valverde, who also complained that mice were a pest who ate chile pods off the plants in the field.
A la primera cocinera se le va un chile entero,” goes one old Spanish dicho, or saying: “To the best lady cook goes the whole chile.” And so it is that the chile pepper is the single most important food brought from Mexico that defines New Mexican cuisine. After the Spanish began settlement, the cultivation of chile peppers exploded, and soon they were grown all over New Mexico. It is likely that many different varieties were cultivated, including early forms of jalapeños, serranos, anchos, and pasillas. But one variety that adapted particularly well to New Mexico was a long green chile that turned red in the fall. Formerly called “Anaheim” because of its transfer to the more settled California around 1900, the New Mexican chiles were cultivated for hundreds of years in the region with such dedication that several distinct varieties developed.
These varieties, or “land races,” called ‘Chimayo’ and ‘Española,’ had adapted to particular environments and are still planted today in the same fields they were grown in centuries ago; they constitute a small but distinct part of the tons of pods produced each year in New Mexico.
In 1846, William Emory, Chief Engineer of the Army’s Topographic Unit, was surveying the New Mexico landscape and its customs. He described a meal eaten by people in Bernalillo, just north of Albuquerque: “Roast chicken, stuffed with onions; then mutton, boiled with onions; then followed various other dishes, all dressed with the everlasting onion; and the whole terminated by chile, the glory of New Mexico.”
Emory went on to relate his experience with chiles: “Chile the Mexicans consider the chef-d’oeuvre of the cuisine, and seem really to revel in it; but the first mouthful brought the tears trickling down my cheeks, very much to the amusement of the spectators with their leather-lined throats. It was red pepper, stuffed with minced meat.
New Mexican chiles are pod types of the annuum species. The plant has mostly a compact habit with an intermediate number of stems, and grows between 20 and 30 inches high. The leaves are ovate, medium green, fairly smooth, and about 3 inches long and 2 inches wide. The flower corollas are white with no spots. The pods are pendant, elongate, bluntly pointed, and measure between 2 and 12 inches. They are dark green, maturing to various shades of red. Some ornamentals are yellow or brown. Their heat ranges from quite mild to medium, between 500 and 2,500 Scoville Units.

After an election, German politicians face journalists who ask hard questions, especially of the losers. No US politician would submit him- or herself to such tough interrogation on camera. None avoid the attacks or stupid questions, answering with intelligence and politeness. The campaign period might be short, but press scrutiny is intense and no one can duck the exposure, as US politicians do so well.
From my limited knowledge of German political history, I do not believe that any party has governed the country after the war without a coalition partner. Germans like coalition government, because that is their form of checks and balances. The feeling is that one party would get into too much mischief, without a partner to keep an eye on things and raise the alarm. They have learned from past mistakes, and now are able to make new ones.
German is like a giant oil tanker, difficult to turn in a short distance. Because of that, minor ripples--or even large waves--do not cause course changes in this country. Germans like status quo, which major parties deliver, even if the partners change.
The national election takes place in Germany today. Most expect Angela Merkel’s party to garner the most votes, but that will not be enough to win the election. Parties rarely win a majority, so a coalition government is the norm. Wrangling will begin before the final count is finished.
Angie is certain to become chancellor again, but her partner is in question. Whatever the outcome, I do not expect much change. I have lived through many elections and different forms of coalition, but have experienced little difference. Germans do not like change.
The best thing is that campaigning lasted only a few weeks and one could avoid most of the theatrics. Differences between the parties are marginal, so the messages are unconvincing. Seismic changes are unknown, despite the occasional flight of fancy by a minor party. Unlike in the US, there are many parties. Fortunately, few make it past the 5% hurdled needed to enter parliament. Life will return to routine tomorrow, not that the past days have not been routine.
Since started writing this worthless blog, the first national election in Germany is taking place. Some might not have noticed, because anyone blinking will miss the event and its run-up. And, if you blink, you will miss the advertising, because it is permitted only for four weeks prior to the election. On top of that, all parties must receive equal time in the media, for which they must not pay. That means that one sees as much television advertising for a party that will receive less than one percent of the vote as one sees for Angie’s party, which will receive around 40 percent.
All advertising is boring and poorly constructed. Some is downright bad. Slogans on posters, which are plastered along streets (again, only for four weeks) are naive and often completely stupid. I even saw one demanding the “end of fascism”, which caused to wonder if these hopeful politicians are living in the same country in which the election is taking place. Smiling faces of, mostly, unattractive politicians are a blight on the landscape. At least, we must look at these ugly faces for only a short time...unless they win the election.
Of course, this is a refreshing alternative to the US election farce, which the world must endure, it seems, with no end.
I noticed a humorous headline in our local newspaper (something still thriving in Germany, like bakeries, breweries, and farmers’ markets...and taxes):
“Anti-spying Agreement with the United States Planned”
This made me wonder if similar discussions are taking place with the Chinese, Russians, and other major industrial nations. Of course, national elections are coming up in September and surveillance is an issue with voters, so the ruling party surely wants people to believe that they are able to effect American behavior. And, we all know how stupid the average voter in any country is....
The nuclear catastrophe in Japan has re-ignited the debate in Germany about use of nuclear energy. The Green Party is having a field day.
During the dark days of socialist/green government, about ten years ago, they passed laws to drop this energy source in the future. Few could explain how to power the German industrial machine in a better manner, but rational argument rarely matters in politics. Once the conservatives regained power, they immediately reversed the decision.
Unfortunately for politicians, Nature has a way of entering the fray and not listening to politicians' "reasoning". After Fukishima, even the Conservative Party recognized the need react to the news and announced the premature closing of a few older nuclear reactors (which were already planned to be decommissioned). In politics, chemistry, and nuclear physics, every action causes an equal and opposite reaction. The government may have appeased voters, but failed to reckon with the energy companies: they sued, claiming that the decision to close the aging nuclear plants had "no legal basis".
I wonder if the tectonic plates had a "legal basis" for or sought a "legal opinion" before moving underneath Japan. I doubt it. Of course, lawyers somewhere are probably considering the case against Nature...while others will surely be willing to defend the earthquake and tsumani. Fees could be massive...

December 2, 1920 - November 29, 2020
On Sunday, November 29th, 2020, Betty Harmon Brandt passed from the loving arms of her family into the waiting arms of her Lord and Saviour whom she cherished. Born in December, 1920, in Burnham, PA, Betty was a proud graduate of Burnham High School and attended every annual reunion there. She married Edward “Bud” Brandt, Jr. of Lewistown, Pennsylvania, in 1943 and they celebrated 56 years of marriage together until his passing in 1999. Betty and Bud raised their three children in Falls Church, Virginia, before retiring south to Staunton, Virginia, in 1974. Betty lived an extraordinary life of faith in Jesus Christ. She was a member of the Christian Women’s Club both in the Falls Church area and in Staunton. Betty and Bud were active members of Crossroads Baptist Church in Fishersville, Virginia, where Betty continued to worship and serve for 21 years after the passing of her beloved husband. Betty rocked numerous babies in the church nursery, she opened her home to missionaries passing through town, and she could be counted on to prepare and deliver meals to other widows, shut-ins, and new mothers well into her late 80’s. Her children remember coming down to morning breakfast and seeing Betty's Bible open, searching the Scriptures while they were still sleeping. Betty will be remembered most fondly by her family as having the “Hotline to Heaven,” kneeling beside her bed—and in later years, sitting for hours in her favorite chair—petitioning the Lord daily for her family, friends, and anyone else fortunate enough to make it onto her Prayer List. Besides every single thing about her, Betty's family will miss her divine gifts as a master baker of Christmas cookies, pumpkin pies, and chocolate cake with peanut butter icing; a tireless and compassionate listener; an armchair meteorologist; and a dispenser of sage-like advice. But most importantly, her family will miss her love and fierce devotion to them. Betty H. Brandt is survived by her children, Edward Wm. Brandt III and his wife Janice Cosbey Brandt; Jack V. Brandt and his wife Marguerite Walker Brandt; and Debora (Brandt) Maricle and her husband Robert E. Maricle. Betty leaves a legacy of seven grandchildren and a soon-to-be total of 12 great-grandchildren who all adored her. Betty was laid to rest in a private family ceremony in Staunton, Virginia, on what would have been her 100th birthday, and her life was celebrated with the things she loved most in this world: family, food, Scripture and prayer, and laughter.

This project presented a powerful challenge to Marino and that’s why he released his full creative vein and produced a stunning end result.
Another Top Commercial project in NYC by Marino is the iconic Chanel Flagship Store at 57th Street and Fifth. in 2006, this opulent 14,000 square foot boutique was entirely redesigned by architect Peter Marino. With golden tones and an opulent style that mimics Chanel, this Flagship Store is, till this day, one of the Most Iconic projects by Marino.
Another recent Project of Marino that produced many Design Highlights was The Getty, an entire building project located on West 24th Street and 10th Avenue. The building designed by Marino consists of the Lehmann Maupin Art Gallery on the ground floor, an Art Foundation above that, and six unique residences with stunning interior architecture and designs also developed by Marino. Just take a look at those details, from Hardware to the Flowers!
Marino was also hired to design a suite at the Four Seasons Hotel in New York! Marino created a penthouse suite that reads like a multilayered, site-specific artwork—with virtually every decor detail and piece of furniture having been commissioned. The end result is stunning.
He was also responsible for designing an Art-Filled 1930’s Manhattan apartment, where he seamlessly integrated neoclassical tables and 18th-century chairs with the owners’ museum-worthy collection, which includes works by Henri Matisse, Willem de Kooning, Mark Rothko, and Andy Warhol.
One of the most stunning and classical projects of Marino in New York is the following Residence. You may not know, but Classical Music is Marino’s passion, and he thinks about architecture much like a composer. He entirely reinvented a prewar Manhattan apartment by introducing an assemblage of first-rate furnishings, opulent masonry and finishes, and blue-chip art. In the dining room, sunburst mirrors and a 1999 Jason Martin painting accent the walls, which are covered in embossed-leather panelling with silver-gilt overleaf.
Peter Marino is also responsible for other amazing Residential Projects all around the City and all of the following represent a powerful and stunning Modern Decor that perfectly uses Color and Luxury Designs! Just take a look and admire his incredible work that stands out by the use of amazing Sofas and Chairs to balance the Modernity and the Opulence of his vision!

Al-Qabas quoted an official source as saying that Al-Asousi had charged TV anchor Dalia Badran after the Ministry of the Interior filed a complaint against her.
Badran recently sparked controversy in Kuwait after she had called for the “departure of the American forces in Kuwait and replacing them with Egyptian troops.”
She noted that her demands were aimed at “protecting” Kuwait from “internal and external enemies”.
Social media activists accused her of “inciting sedition”.
Against the backdrop of the unprecedented conditions brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, Boursa Kuwait saw a net profit…181 | the publication reaches you by | Kuwait Online

Mornings with Jordan Karst
At age 17 I moved from Kimberley BC to Lethbridge to take the Broadcast Journalism program at Lethbridge College. It was there I met my future wife and found the city I would call home. After a few years as a Producer at 94.1 CJOC Classic Hits, I took over the Afternoon Show until 2014 when I became the host of the 94.1 CJOC – Classic Hits Morning Show.
When I’m not on the air, I’m probably playing with my kids, watching sports, having a beer or doing all 3 at the same time. I was born in Saskatchewan so I’m a diehard Riders fan and Wayne Gretzky made sure I became a fan of the 2 time Stanley Cup champion LA Kings!
Yes, Sam and I actually do get along. No, I won’t tell you what the answer is to the secret sound and yes, I do know that I am a terrible singer!
Catch Jordan weekday mornings 6-10 from the Challenger Building Supplies Studio and the Best of 94.1 CJOC – Classic Hits Mornings Saturdays from 7-10am
Mornings with Sam Borsato
I wear two hats here at 94.1 CJOC – Classic Hits, co-hosting the morning show and also taking care of the morning news. Have I mentioned that I wasn’t alive when most of the music we play was released? Proudly born in 1994, and one of the youngest people at the station!
I started my radio career in 2015, shortly after graduating from Lethbridge College. I have a strong passion for local news, and I guess I’m funny sometimes too.
On a more personal note, I grew up most of my life in Sylvan Lake, AB and I’ve lived in Lethbridge since 2012. I’m an average golfer on a good day, I take as many hiking trips to Waterton as humanly possible in the summer and I love my two cats, Outlaw and Jynx, more than most people I know.
I look forward to entertaining and providing accurate, timely news coverage in southern Alberta for plenty of years to come!
Sam’s always the first one in the office! Weekday mornings 6-10 from the Challenger Building Supplies Studio and the Best of 94.1 CJOC – Classic Hits Mornings Saturdays from 7-10am

APA Applauds CHIP Reauthorization
From the APA:
The American Psychiatric Association wants to thank our advocates for their support in our fight to protect children's access to health insurance. Earlier this week, the President signed a measure that extends funding for the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) for a historic six years. Funding for the Childhood Obesity Demonstration Project, the Pediatric Quality Measures Program and specified outreach and enrollment grants were also extended.
Collectively, our advocates sent well-over 1,400 letters Congress in support of CHIP - a number that doesn't include the countless phone calls or tweets that were also made. Despite the turbulent news cycle, these letters, calls and tweets reminded lawmakers that their constituents were paying attention to this successful program's plight. We know that these actions took time away from our advocates' professional or personal lives, but they had an impact and the APA is enormously grateful for your support.
You can read our press release applauding CHIP's passage here.
Thank you again!

Intimate Wedding at Historic Hauberg Estate | Rock Island, Illinois
One of my favorite weddings of the year was celebrating the marriage of Anne and Luke. They had a great sense of style for their wedding, and I was so excited about the designs right from our very first meeting! She came to me wanting a romantic modern garden style, with a warm color palette of soft muted shades of coral and rust. They held their wedding ceremony at their family church, and their reception was held at outdoors right outside of the Hauberg Estate Mansion. Seriously, I love historic buildings and this property is one you NEED to visit when you're in the Quad Cities area.
For that iconic garden flower palette, we used a variety of garden roses, Studio Bloom-grown dahlias and phlox, cosmos, carnations, local lisianthus, ranunculus, and a variety of greenery. To add a modern flair, deep colored ninebark foliage was added, and sleek white and terracotta vessels were chosen for the ceremony arrangements and the reception centerpiece arrangements.
