Add the Electoral College to the list of American institutions that the Democrats have destroyed (along with education, media, entertainment, Silicon Valley, sports, big cities, the justice system, the family, the FBI-CIA, the Supreme Court, etc.).
By manufacturing massive fraudulent vote counts in the big cities they control, Democrats invalidate suburban and rural votes in key battleground states like Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Nevada, and Arizona. Elections simply become who can produce the most votes, which is most easily accomplished in large Democrat-run cities like Atlanta, Philadelphia, Detroit, and Milwaukee. Read Full Story

Italy is a dream many people nowadays, whether its culture, its gastronomy, its culture or its dream landscape, not to mention its mechanical jewels. But to properly enjoy his stay in the territory, we recommend everyone to try the rental boat.
Italy on a trip
When speaking of Italy, it is far from thinking about making a trip at sea by boat, rather we go to contemplate the works of art that make up this country. Whether to admire the magnificent Colosseum or the amazing Leaning Tower, not to mention the various ruins left by the Roman civilization in time. For dining, we are reminded that this is the birthplace of spaghetti, Bolognese sauce and pizzas of all kinds. Located in the Mediterranean, it is subject to a humid subtropical climate, mountain, Mediterranean but also, depending on the region. However, it is also accompanied by numerous islands, Sardinia and Sicily are the best known among the small islands that form except Corsica, which is French.
Italy by rental boat
With its many islands, it is clear that the boat hire italy is a good idea when it is passing, especially for the holidays. In effect, this allows everyone to explore it in all the nooks and crannies while discovering the many islands and their respective specialties, as well as culinary culture. And do not forget that to rent a boat favors everyone the opportunity to live on during his journey, which dispenses with all accommodation costs. Especially since there are different boat rental opportunities through the web, either for those who are already there, or those who are still abroad and want to make a hire locally.
Renting a boat is not really a problem nowadays, the real problem lies in the choice of ship rental, knowing that the choice is so vast that it is easy to get lost.

I grew up like a lot of guys in full-time ministry. I was in church every time the doors were open “ my mom made sure of it. I did my part as a good Baptist by visiting with her and helping out in ministries that had captured her heart. She was an excellent model of a good, Christian woman and laid a godly foundation on which I could base my life choices.
After navigating through some tougher times in my late teens and early twenties, I landed in ministry as a bi-vocational youth pastor. I found quickly that due to my rearing in church I was prepared for most of the questions I received from both young people and parents, and found myself being so thankful for the background I had that well equipped me to minister to others. What I didn’t know, however, was what I didn’t know.
I had heard older ministers and laymen talk about education among ‘preachers’ when our church was preparing to fill a staff role, and the conversation was always two-sided. Educated professionals talked about the value of an education and seminary degree while less educated men and women (who, I might add, were just as successful as their well-educated co-committee members) spoke of the need for a down-to-earth person who was educated by life experience and the church. I could best be described as the latter. In fact, I entered seminary after having served bi-vocationally for more than seven years and full-time for almost as many.
Having grown up around all kinds of ministers, I had a great deal of respect for their seminary degrees. In fact, the older I got the more cheated I felt personally for not taking the opportunity to experience the classes and seminary life I heard them speak of on multiple occasions. I felt that I had no ‘cool’ seminary stories or experiences from which to pull. But not one time did I ever feel like I was less equipped or prepared for ministry than those guys. In fact, I considered myself their equal. I did not have their training, but I was certain that I was called and that Christ was using me effectively for advancing His Kingdom.
When I began my seminary journey, however, all of that changed. It did not take very long for me to realize just how ill-prepared I was for so great a task as training, teaching, and being a pastor of any kind. I remember having this moment of self awareness where I realized just how little I knew before I began seminary and how little I was going to know after I received my degree. It was awfully humbling.
And then my mind shifted to the gifted individuals who had received extensive seminary training but had allowed me to enter ministry without the same experience. These individuals recognized God’s call on my life and set me free to do ministry under their care. When I realized that these men knew full well what I didn’t know, it made their willingness to trust me to serve God’s Kingdom as a trusted pastor all the more humbling. And the fact that they allowed me to serve freely under their care “ not as an hireling, but as an equal “ helped me see that the scope of their training and calling far surpassed the paper they had hanging on their office walls. These men understood the heart of Jesus and owned the responsibility of modeling His heart to those called to serve Him.
My seminary journey is now nearing an end, but my thirst for knowledge has not been quenched. In fact, the more I learn the more I have a desire to learn more. And the greater my understanding becomes of the chance others took on me when I answered God’s call on my life, the greater responsibility I feel to nurture the same in others. I am thankful for what I have learned and for what I have yet to learn and experience. But I am so much more grateful for others who allowed me to answer God’s call on my life long before I actually knew what I didn’t know.

|Location||The University of Hohenheim is located about 15 km outside of Stuttgart in south-western Germany. It was founded in 1818 as an institution for agricultural teaching and research with the aim of com- bating hunger. Today the university has three faculties and around 10,000 students; 20 per cent of whom are international coming from more than 90 different countries. The focal point of the campus is the beautiful Hohenheim Palace surrounded by a spacious park and botanical garden. The University of Hohenheim is one of Europe’s leading universities in the fields of agricultural sciences and economics.|
|Course focus||The four-semester M.Sc. programme emphasises a firm foundation in economic analysis and quantitative methods to address real-world policy issues related to agriculture, food and the environment. Globalisation, sustainability, poverty, food security, food safety, agricultural policy reform and rural development are typical issues that are being analysed using innovative methodologies.
A course semester consists of five thematic modules, each ending with a written or oral exam. In addition to compulsory modules, there is a wide choice of electives. Classroom work is supplemented with computer exercises, discussion sessions, research seminars and case studies. Modules are organised and taught by Hohenheim professors who have broad experience in international research. Students also benefit from Hohenheim’s active links with academic partners world- wide. Guest speakers from partner universities as well as research, development and policy institutions cover additional topics and thus enrich the curriculum with special fields of expertise.
After three course semesters, the last six months are reserved for the M.Sc. thesis, which often involves primary data collection abroad. The thesis can pursue empirical or theoretical questions related to ongoing research projects, but students’ own initiatives and ideas are also welcome.
|Target group||Outstanding students and professionals interested in international issues and pursuing a career in policy analysis related to agriculture, food, the environment, and rural development.|
|Degree Awarded||Master of Science in Agricultural Sciences, Major in Agricultural Economics|
|Course Begins||October of each year (German language course starts in August)|

Ohio State forward E.J. Liddell has been tearing it up this season, taking even a further step in his development from one that took a giant leap last year. He kept things cranking against Wisconsin this weekend too, leading all scorers in the game with a career-high 28 points. He also hauled down eight rebounds and blocked two shots in leading the Buckeyes to a blowout win over a ranked Badgers squad 73-55.
This came after a 15 point performance against Towson earlier in the week.
For his efforts, the 6-foot, 7-inch junior was named the Big Ten’s Co-Player of the Week on Monday. It’s Liddell’s first weekly award this season, a year in which he’s averaging 20.6 points per game. He has scored 20 or more points five times and has tallied three or more assists in six of the 10 games. He also leads the country in free throws attempted with 74 so far on the year.
⭐️ E.J. Liddell has been named @BigTen Player of the Week‼️
— Ohio State Hoops (@OhioStateHoops) December 13, 2021
Liddell shared the honor this week with Purdue’s big man, Trevion Williams. Ohio State will next take on Kentucky this coming Saturday in the CBS Sports Classic in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The “I Love You 3000” singer follows up a viral hit and a Jackson Wang feature with a brand-new EP.
It took three years, a viral hit, collaborating with K-pop legend Jackson Wang, and a global pandemic for the musician Stephanie Poetri to realize she’s had the recipe for her own success all along. Poetri, 21, originally hails from Jakarta, Indonesia, where she was raised in a musical family. Her father—whom she tells me over Zoom from her current apartment in Los Angeles, is from “Texas,” in a Matthew McConaughey-esque drawl—was a music teacher who bestowed upon her everything she knows now about “the art of music.” And her mother, known by her stage name of Titi DJ, is the equivalent of Southeast Asian pop royalty: she’s had a flourishing music career since the 1990s, and recently was a host on Indonesian Idol and The Voice Indonesia.
“Ever since I was born, pretty much, people expected me to do something in music, but I wanted to be rebellious,” Poetri says. “I was like, I’ll never do music.”
But her curiosity and natural inclinations prevailed, and Poetri is now fully ensconced in the music industry. She’s signed to the label and Asian music collective 88 Rising, and today, will release her latest song “Picture Myself”—one single off her upcoming EP, which is slated to drop in March. The track takes Poetri’s love for classic singer-songwriter fare (an acoustic guitar, thoughtfully placed lyrics, her melodic voice) and puts a pop spin on it—think Olivia Rodrigo without the heavy drums.
Poetri says she has come to a point where she has discovered her own sound and realized what she wants to put out in the world, musically speaking, “for the rest of my life.” It wasn’t easy, and entailed something of a roundabout journey to arrive where she is now.
She remembers when she was a young teenager, she once asked her father how to write a song. Her dad, who mostly made country music, drew a diagram to show her the bones of a song: structure, setting, mood, and message. “Then I just started writing for fun,” Poetri says. “But as I started approaching my graduation [from high school], a part of me, deep down, was like, I never tried anything creative like this. I might as well.”
A self-described “multi” K-pop fan, (“I just love all the bands. I support all of them,” she gushes,) Poetri was obsessed with the genre—especially the bouncy, house-inflected production on songs like “Really Really” by Winner. She signed up for a production class that would teach her how to make music like that. In the class, she wrote a song that would become her first hit, “I Love You 3000,” (the title is based on a line from the film Avengers: Endgame.) It immediately blew up, garnering over 125 million views on YouTube and topping Spotify’s Global Viral 50 for over a month. She also won the Best New Asian Artist – Indonesia award at the 2019 Mnet Asian Music Awards after “I Love You 3000” dropped. Wang, the star known as the frontman of the much-beloved K-pop group Got7, took notice—and jumped on a remix of the track soon after it released, called “I Love You 3000 II.”
As Poetri’s big moment started to pick up steam, the pandemic crept around the corner. In March 2020, the singer had just moved to Los Angeles to pursue her musical career, but she returned to Jakarta to be with her family once Covid-19 hit the United States. “I was so happy to be with my family, but I definitely had some moments where I just felt stuck, like I’m not going anywhere,” she says. To combat the feelings of ennui and stagnancy, Poetri worked on what would become her 2020 EP AM PM. She’d log on to Zoom with producers early in the morning or late at night and write songs, doing weekly sessions and workshopping with other artists. But she still felt lingering anxiety to deliver another smash hit and impress the big wigs throughout the process.
“I had a lot of fears going into a session after ‘I Love You 3000,’” she says. “When I wrote all of my songs before, it was by myself in my room with a loop or guitar chords or some random keys on the piano.” In sessions with producers, she worried she wouldn’t have anything to contribute, and that the wellspring of ideas that might have come to her while alone in her bedroom would have dried up. But, she says, “Picture Myself,” is one song that speaks to her musical foundation. It’s an honest track that recalls why she got into music in the first place—simply because she loves it.
“When I [first] heard ‘Picture Myself,’ I was like, this vibe is me,” she says. “And honestly, that was the vibe I was going for when I wrote ‘I Love You 3000,’ but at the time, it didn’t feel like the right move to put out another acoustic song. But honestly, that’s all I wanna do.”
This next project, she explains, returns to that initial feeling that sparked the idea and the sound for “I Love You 3000.” The moment allowed Poetri to trust herself and her sonic intuition. “I feel like I can finally breathe out,” she says. “This is what I wanted to do from the start.”

I'm recovering from a server failure on my Exchange System and while I've been able to rebuild the server an integrate it into the Exchange System and the DAG. When I attempt to replicate any of the databases, it fails. It creates a directory on the new Exchange server in the right place, but the database isn't there and I get the following error:

I'm limping along on two exchange servers with some on OWA and other's on their Desktop version of OUTlook. Replication between the two workings servers seems to be intermittent as well. Any help would be appreciated. Not sure what else to try.
Silly question perhaps: do you have a support contract with Microsoft?
A quick look: does this help?
I do not have a Microsoft support contract. I have never needed one. I usually can figure these things out myself or with the help of the community. On the rare case, I have called Microsoft and paid the one time call fee. But, it seems to have gone from $289 a call now up to $499 a call for server issues! Wo.
The support page you gave me doesn't relate to my issue. It's not the same problem. I do not have a lot of log files.
However, it seems like it does relate to my current mailbox databases. If I create a brand new database, this new empty database copies to the other servers without issue.Edited Aug 4, 2015 at 17:41 UTC
If you have too many logs, check your backups. A completed full backup should trim the logs. If backups are good look at the existing DAG replication, if that is not in a good state Exchange will not clear the logs, as it preserves them in case they have not been played into all database copies.
Worst case scenario, take it all the way back to single copy, get a good backup, logs cleared, re-create and re-seed the DAG copies.
It does seem like a log issue. New DBs replicate just fine.
It looks like I've been living on a DAG with only a single network channel for a few months. Wasn't looking at my Exchange enough to see I had this problem, So this explains why each of my databases have 16,000+ messages.
DAG replication is now working as it should be, but I've still got this crap ton of logs. So it looks like a backup would be the quickest way to clean this up?
Yes a backup is the only proper way to clear logs. If things go really bad there are ither ways to clear them but you would risk your recoverability from a disaster. So best to just get a full backup and life is good!
Well, one would hope Backups would help. They did not.
I still am unable to do an Add Mailbox Copy. Same error.
I don't have that many databases, so I think I'm just going to create new ones and migrate the mailboxes from old DB to new DB, then just delete the old DBs and the Logs in their entirety.

Very strange issue (I'd imagine with a simple answer I am overlooking). I have a Cisco 2901 router that we are using as a SIP router. I have it connecting into the LAN on GE0/0, but the strange thing is, if I set it to DHCP, the port will get an ip in the correct vlan and be accessible, but if I change it from DHCP to static, I am unable to access it over the LAN. Both the DHCP IP and the static IP are in the same range. DHCP is offered from the voice gateway (another 2901) which is working fine (all phones connect etc)
Any ideas what could be the issue? I have an identically configured router at another site and it is working just fine with a static, except that is it in a Cisco switch, where as this problematic router is in a HP Aruba switch.
Current port config is simply
ip address 10.251.1.24 255.255.255.0
Any ideas would be appreciated, like I said I'm sure I'm overlooking something incredibly simple!
I've found the issue, going through the config I noticed the ip route was set to the wrong IP.
Thank you to all for your help.
Just to understand a bit more, you are able to apply an IP Address but it is not pinging from the other end?
- Run the command show ip interface brief and see if the status and protocol are up there.
- You can also try default command, run default interface Gig 0/0, it will clear the configuration from the port and then try to reconfigure again and see it works. Do not forget to run the no shutdown command on a port once you are done with the configuration.
Please let me know if it helps.

The Formula 1 season is around the corner yet again, but this year, fans of American rock band Good Charlotte have extra cause for celebration – the 39-year-old vocalist Joel Madden will be coming to town for the premium party, The Podium Lounge.
Touted as Singapore’s largest and most glamorous trackside after-party, The Podium Lounge will return once again for its 10th anniversary at The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore. Hosted by ex-Formula 1 driver Alex Yoong and E! News Asia’s Yvette King, guests can expect three nights of exciting, glamorous entertainment.
Aside from churning out hits alongside his brother Benji with Good Charlotte, Joel Madden also was a coach on The Voice Australia and appeared on the Fox TV series Empire.
Taking time out of his packed schedule, Joel Madden speaks to us exclusively ahead of his appearance at The Podium Lounge on Saturday, September 15, where he will be performing a set as a Celebrity DJ.
Are you excited to be back in Singapore?
I’m very happy to be coming back to Singapore. I’ve always felt a good vibe, and I really love the people.
What are your favourite things about Singapore and why?
For me Singapore is such a special place in Asia – the people, the vibe and the food. It’s so easy to be happy around people, and to have a good time. The mood is always nice.
You have repeatedly expressed your admiration for Singaporean singer Gentle Bones (aka Joel Tan) on social media. Why is that so?
I really love Gentle Bones. Joel is one of the most talented songwriters I’ve come across and I believe he will be recognized by the world at large in the future in a real way. Talent and charisma can be very hard to find, so I would bet on an artist like Joel any day. He’s very special.
We’ve seen you as a musician, a judge/mentor on a reality competition and even an actor on a television series. What keeps you occupied when you’re away from the cameras?
Most of my time is spent running a music company with my brothers called MDDN. When I’m not working on that, I am working on projects of special interest to me. There are some branding things we are doing and a couple of things in tech. All of these things keep me excited, interested and busy. When I’m not working at the office, I’m at home with my family which is my favorite thing in the world.
Do you have any other projects coming up? Tease us a little!
We have a new Good Charlotte record coming on September 14 called Generation Rx, and we have a big US tour to follow that in the Fall, as well as
Speaking of the Grand Prix, what is one thing that gets your adrenaline pumping?
Right now, playing Fortnite with my son is probably the most dangerous thing about me. Although, I start my wingsuit lessons next month and I really think that is going to be great for me.
What can we expect for your set at The Podium Lounge?
I am looking to have a great time and enjoy a night out with good people in Singapore. This city never disappoints!
Your long-time Singaporean fans have always been vocal about their love for you. Is there anything you’d like to say to them?
I am always really grateful every time I turn up in Singapore, everyone is so welcoming and nice, it’s very easy to have a great time. People are so laid back here. I appreciate everyone in Singapore who have always been so nice, and I always look forward to coming back, especially when I’m flying Singapore Airlines.
Portions of the interview were edited for clarity.

As soon as I got into the place where I am working with my textiles and mixed media I got distracted.
And how !!!
All the materials that the former “Keramist” who used the Ateljee and all the other artists that lived and worked here for longer or shorter periods have left “something” behind.
The curator of the exhibitions that are held in Hovinkartano has gathered these gems and stored them in large trunks and cabinets.
When I need anything like glass, iron, gramophone records, plastic cups or bags, linen, threads, paper , lace ….. you name it …. It is all there!
The most special ones of the objects I found is a big bag full with unprocessed linen threads and another large bag full of (almost) golden strips of copper foil and when I walk out there are even more treasures to find: stones, wood, the lake….
What is your biggest “distraction” or does it actually inspires you?

BY ALEXANDRA SAKELLARIOU
According to Times Now News, the research was conducted by a team of psychologists at the University of Rochester in partnership with the Collaborative Initiative on Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (DIFASD). The researchers sought out to evaluate the role and impact of expecting women’s partners in helping them avoid alcohol during pregnancy. The findings of the study were eventually published in the Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research journal.
During the study, the researchers studied 246 pregnant women living in two cities in Western Ukraine, Hindustan Times notes. All of the participants had partners, and the majority were legally married.
In the first trimester:
•The women were asked questions regarding their satisfaction in their relationship
•How often they argued with their partner
•Their partner’s drug and alcohol habits and socioeconomic status
Conversely, in their third trimester:
•The pregnant participants were asked questions relating to themselves, including their drinking habits and if they were experiencing feelings of depression.
The researchers eventually evaluated the infants six months post-birth by looking at their psychomotor development which, as Science Direct explains, refers to the changes in a child’s “cognitive, emotional, motor, and social capacities” all the way from infancy into early adolescence.
They discovered that pregnant women were more likely to consume alcohol in pregnancy if their partner was regularly using alcohol or tobacco. The more frequently their partnered consumed these products, the higher the likelihood of prenatal alcohol exposure. Similarly, the lower the woman’s satisfaction with the relationship, the more at risk she was to drink in pregnancy. The higher the rate of alcohol consumption, the poorer the infant’s psychomotor development was.
The opposite was observed in women who were at a lower risk of drinking in pregnancy. Not only did their partners exhibit lower rates of alcohol and tobacco consumption, but they also reported more satisfaction in their relationships. Even more, women who expressed feeling supported by their partners in pregnancy were less likely to experience feelings of depression.

Rainier 30, Onalaska 12
By Dave Weber
(Onalaska, WA) It took Rainier awhile to get its offense in sync but once the sixth-ranked Mountaineers started clicking, they ran away from host Onalaska, 30-12 Friday night at Memorial Field.
Quarterback Zach Zofgren ran for a pair of touchdowns, including a 45-yarder when he broke free from tacklers at the line of scrimmage while the Rainier coaches were yelling “go down!” from the sidelines. Lofgren rushed for 110 yards while Ian Russell ran for 99.
Cole Reise also scored twice for Rainier (5-0, 3-0 2B Central) on an eight-yard run and on a 65-yard touchdown pass down the middle from Lofgren.
Rainier’s final touchdown came as part of a sequence of three touchdowns on four plays.
Onalaska (3-2, 1-2) finally scored with just under six minutes to play in the game, on a touchdown pass from Lucas Kreger to Lazaro Rodriguez. Russell returned the Logger kickoff 71 yards for a touchdown.
Onalaska scored on its first play from scrimmage after that as Ashton Haight carried 35 yards for the TD. Lofgren ran that kickoff into the end zone but two penalty flags halted the flurry of touchdowns.
As an oddity, the teams combined for seven touchdowns without either converting a single PAT.
Reise, who added strong defensive work to his pair of scores, was selected Pacific Sports Spa Player of the Game for Rainier while Haight got the honor for Onalaska. Lofgren’s tackling-breaking 45-yard touchdown run was the ProActive Physical Therapy Play of the Game.

Summer 2020 has been a tale of two housing types in Murrayville. While single family home prices have been jumping, attached home prices have faltered.
Single Family Homes
Murrayville has a scarcity of detached homes for sale. With only 6 new listings in July and a total of 12 listings at the end of the month, buyers shopping specifically for Murrayville have found a serious lack of selection and are willing to pay a premium. The insalely high 75% sales to listing ratio has pushed Murrayville single family home prices from $1.094m in May to $1.114m in July, with no sign of slowing down.
The benchmark Murrayville townhome price has hovered in the same $628-632,000 range since March, including ending off at $629,000 by July. This is down slightly from June's $632,600, which is interesting considering the strong 68.4% sales to listing ratio that would usually come with higher prices as demand outstrips supply. However, this suggests that Murrayville buyers are limiting what they are willing to spend. Another part of this may be that some of the new townhomes in the area may not be selling on the MLS and might be a preference for many premium buyers.
Upper Murrayville's burgeoning apartment market saw sales climb into double digits for the first time since October.... of 2005! Of course, it's only 10 sales and we've historically never had so many apartments in Murrayville as we do now. We did have more resale units available in the past, such as in 2013 and 2015. Yet, Murrayville's condos prices have slid for 3 months in a row, from $451,900 in April to $443,800 in July. That said, the sales to listing ratio increased significantly from 16.7% to a huge 55.5% as a result of the increase in sales and decrease in new listings. If this trend continues, prices should either hold steady or reverse in August.

Welcome to the High Score Esports College Players Interview Series!
Today, we’re talking to Lukas “Occam” Biel, who plays on the Super Smash Brothers Ultimate team for Aquinas Esports. See how he got started, how he leads his team to victory, and what tips he has for players who want to join college teams!
Thanks to Aquinas Esports Head Coach Adam Antor for giving us access to his players!
What first got you into games?
I’ve played games since I was a kid. There was plenty of competition between me and my brother, so I’ve spent a lot of time playing. When I’m not studying for school or busy with other commitments, I usually play video games to pass time.
What drew you to Smash?
I played quite a bit of Smash back in the day, including a lot of Brawl and a little bit of Melee. I really got into Ultimate because of my friends at here at AQ. I would play with them and, after a while, we began to get better and better at the game, so we ended up trying out for the AQ Smash team.
Which character do you main? What is it about them that you like?
I play Falco. I’ve always liked his playstyle and it’s something I would like to get better with as I start my esports career.
Do you prefer to play a more defensive style or an aggressive style? Why?
I play a more defensive style on the ground and a more aggressive style in the air. In Smash, you always want to play with the strengths and weaknesses of your main in mind, so this is how I play Falco.
What do you see as your team’s main advantage?
We have a lot of talented players on the team right now who are easy to work with and eager to learn. With this, we can focus our training and improve our game in order to achieve our best performances in tournament play.
What advice do you have for younger players who are hoping to join a college team?
Do your research on the game you’re playing. It’s always helpful to have knowledge that can teach you more about the game. Sometimes, you may learn a few things that you didn’t know about while playing the game normally. This research includes reading guides, looking up YouTube videos and watching other professional esports teams playing, and other things as well.
When you’re not practicing Smash or studying, what games do you play?
I’m a pretty avid fan strategy games like Age of Empires 2 when I was a kid. Right now, one of my favorite series of games is the Grand Strategies games created by Paradox studios, Crusader Kings II and Victoria II. When I want to turn my brain off for an hour or two, I play FPS games as well.
If you want to get to know Lukas better, follow him on Twitter!

Slowing demand in rural India hurts Hindustan Unilever profit
Jul 21, 2015
Weakening rural demand and low pricing hurt Hindustan Unilever Ltd as the Indian unit of Anglo-Dutch consumer group Unilever Plc missed market expectations for quarterly profit, sending its shares down almost 5 percent on Tuesday.
Consumer price inflation in India has ticked up to an eight-month high, making Indian consumers, a quarter of whom live on less than 74 U.S. cents a day, pull back on discretionary spending.
Hindustan Unilever is Asia's largest consumer goods maker by market capitalisation and sells products such as Lux soap, Lipton tea and Dove shampoos through thousands of mom-and-pop stores as well as big retailers across the country, making it a barometer of Indian consumer sentiment.
"What we notice for sure is that there is pressure building on rural (markets)," PB Balaji, the company's chief financial officer, said on a conference call with reporters.
"In the past, rural markets have seen 15-20 percent growth, almost one and half or two times that of urban. What we see now is that rural is more or less in line with urban markets," he added.
For Hindustan Unilever, 35 percent of sales comes from villages and small towns, making an uptick in this market key to its future growth as urban markets saturate.
The company has aimed to revive demand by bringing down prices on some of its products, passing on to consumers the benefits of lower commodity raw material costs.
Net sales from operations were 79.73 billion rupees ($1.25 billion) for the quarter ended June 30, up from 75.71 billion rupees last year.
The company said its net profit for the quarter was 10.59 billion rupees, compared with 10.57 billion rupees a year earlier. Higher taxes also pegged back profit growth, it said.
Analysts on average were expecting a profit of 11.35 billion rupees, according to Thomson Reuters data.
Hindustan Unilever shares fell as much as 4.6 percent on Tuesday but erased some of the losses to be down 2.4 percent in late afternoon trade. ($1 = 63.5600 rupee)

Neo-traditional, Illustrative, Art Deco
Cortney Norton grew up surrounded by an artistic family, with a love of painting and illustration, and knew early on that she would pursue a professional art career. Despite her passion, she had no idea she would ultimately turn her focus to tattooing until she accompanied a friend to get a tattoo, where she fell in love immediately and began working toward an apprenticeship.
Cortney began tattooing in 2015, and her variety of work environments, colleagues, and artistic influences allowed her to clarify exactly the kind of tattoo studio home she wanted to settle in long-term. After working at Ink & Dagger Tattoo as a temporary resident artist, Cortney knew she had found an ideal community of talented, passionate colleagues and clients in a supportive, inspiring environment.
Cortney loves to combine her education in fine art technique and art history with the craft of tattooing, finding an aesthetic niche that allows her to express herself creatively and make beautiful tattoos for her clients. She loves doing Art Nouveau and Art Deco inspired tattoos, especially ones that feature floral and botanical themes and natural subjects like animals and insects. By combining bold color with ornamental linework, Cortney focuses on giving each of her clients incredible tattoos that will stand the test of time.
When she is not tattooing, Cortney can usually be found drawing, playing board games and going to musicals with her partner, and hanging out with her tiny, orange puppy, Clementine.

Dear users, we are always doing our best to improve the functionality of the gaming platform and the project official website – IQeon.io, which provides information about the team, partners and the latest company news.
Within the planned website’s optimization, we decided to deactivate personal accounts on my.iqeon.io domain. It will be unavailable from October 12, 2020. The work of the personal accounts on IQeon.com gaming platform will not be affected.
Please note that IQN digital assets received during the crowdfunding campaign are fully protected: the funds are stored in personal wallets and only their users have access to them.
The personal account on IQeon.io was designed to monitor user's wallet balance. Over time, we’ve added some useful features to the account in order to facilitate IQN usage. Today, similar algorithms are implemented in the majority of applications, which provide IQN holders with the full range of necessary tools.
In addition, the presence of a personal account on IQeon.io and IQeon.com websites at the same time misleads some users. In this regard, we decided to stop the work of user accounts on the official website, this will positively affect the usage of the platform by community members.

Priyanka Chopra is inspiring a downtown hot spot, Page Six has learned.
Sources told us the star’s partnering with the Lambs Club guru David Rabin and her longtime friend Maneesh Goyal on a new Indian eatery.
A source close to Chopra told us: “It’s not her restaurant, but she will be advising the people opening the restaurant. She’s obviously a lover of Indian food and Indian culture. It’s who she is, so she will be around a lot.”
Another source familiar with the project described it as “the Indochine of Indian food” — referencing the storied Lafayette Street haunt for famous people that turns 36 this year.
“Priyanka will make sure it’s going to be as dope as possible,” the pal said. “She’s a major adviser and friend, and it will be her spot whenever she’s in New York. She’s offering advice on what to keep on the menu and things like that.”
The Flatiron District spot is slated for an early summer opening, with chef Hari Nayak tapped to create the cuisine.
Before being cast on ABC’s 2015 drama “Quantico,” Chopra was a Miss World winner for India and had a successful career as a major Bollywood film actress. She married pop star Nick Jonas in December 2018.

What have they done to Will, he starts his swimming this month and daughter was told he would need googles, these are the smallest, but still too big for him.
He went to the pool this morning for the 1st time.
It's that time of the month when I look at my spend
I won't buy any more garden magazines, Amateur Gardening, was interesting but I learn't nothing new. Modern Gardens are for the plastic gardeners, those who buy and not grow things, some of the idea's were really just strange.
I will always love Gardeners World, full of interesting things to read, and helped me keep up with Monty, as Gardner's World was not on TV this weekend.
Whilst in the village I got 3 packs of 6 bedding plants for £5.00 on a 3 for 2 offer, the plants are hardy and just enough for the pots along the side of the house.
I am feeling pleased with my self, I popped to Superdrug to get some personal items for me, and I bagged loads of bargains, my shampoo was less than half price, my L'Oreal face cream was BOGOF, face wipes half price, deodorant reduced, and I want a couple of nail products which were 3 for the price of 2, so I saved about a third off my shopping. As they say every little helps.
This afternoon we have had rain, it's never enough, but at least I don't have to water the garden, so an afternoon inside with Will to cuddle. Family afternoon's are always fun.

This project is very special to me, because it's for my babies! We were pleasantly surprised to find out we were expecting TWIN boys. I couldn't wait to get started!
I either wanted to do a boho baby or a classic baby vibe for their nursery. I decided that classic was the way to go. They are going to want a hand in their rooms when they're older and won't want it to be baby. They are only babies once!
Updated traditional. I like clean lines and pieces, fabrics and a feel that is classic. I don't like to be too trendy and have to change key pieces too often.
- I did the Harper bedding collection in navy from pb kids; can't go wrong. I didn't want to get the Harper quilt because it is $100.00 and they wont even use it! I bought white quilts online for $40.00 each instead and had their monograms put on them.
- The dresser in their room was in my closet and has to be from the 80's. I painted it Valspar corduroy black (it's actually a navy), added new knobs and I just love it!
- The chandelier is from Lowes and was $80.00http://www.lowes.com/pd_423822-43501-FD12-048_0__?productId=4764695&Ntt=chandeliers . I spray painted it white, bought the shades from Lowes as well and added navy grow grain ribbon with a hot glue gun.
- The curtains are from pb kids as well. I did two panels on each side to make them fuller.
- Of course, a ton of accessories are from HomeGoods; what would I do without? ;)
I love the vintage Babar prints I found at the Paris flea market. I also love the stripes.
If you are trying to conquer stripes....
- Have someone who is meticulous tape off the room
- Paint over the tape with your base coat (this will prevent bleeding), then go back and paint the colored stripe once the base coat has dried

“Dad, it’s a process,” my daughter said. She took the caps off each appealingly labelled product and sniffed. “This one smells like the beach!”
I took a whiff and smiled. “Yes. It does.”
Then I muttered something about chemicals as we made our way to the register.
Every spring, I review the Environmental Working Group’s sunscreen review and order a product I consider safer and more effective than the commercial brands available in most retail stores. This year, though, I forgot the sunscreen. Which meant my daughter and I headed into the shops.
What I saw there confirmed my suspicions: products focused on hyped-up marketing claims, with dubious ingredients. It used to be that you could walk into any beach store and buy sunscreen products from a variety of vendors, with an SPF of 2 through 15. Then, 30 came out … then 45, then 50, 60. Now, there are sunblocks claiming an SPF of 100!
Sunscreen is convenient, smells good, and looks clean, especially when it blends in, allowing your natural skin to show through. In today’s culture, an uncovered body at the beach, glistening in the sun, is much more alluring than one cloaked in a long-sleeved shirt, long pants, and a hat. Even though the latter is much more effective at blocking the sun’s potentially damaging rays, sunscreen is clearly most people’s choice.
It is important, though, to understand how sunscreen can potentially damage your body while it protects your skin. The skin is alive. It is our body’s largest organ — and we need to protect it. Sunscreens can help do that, by blocking a small bandwidth of electromagnetic radiation from reaching and harming your skin. That bandwidth — and the effectiveness with which they can achieve this protection — are specific to each product. But sunscreens touting an SPF are designed to block the ultraviolet blue-B (UV-B) frequencies. Broad-spectrum products block a wider swath of UV radiation, including both the UV-B and UV-A bandwidths.
Without that protection, with increasing sun exposure, your risk for sunburn increases. Unfortunately, unpredictable effects, referred to as stochastic effects, also occur with increasing exposure, which can include the development of cancer.
It can be a balancing act, though, because while sunscreen can help protect your skin, many sunscreens do so through the use of chemicals. Skin absorbs many materials applied to its surface, which can enter the bloodstream and affect the body’s function. Chemicals used in personal care products, including sunscreen, can affect the endocrine system and throw your hormones off kilter. We slather this liquid all over our bodies, and if following directions, repeat application several times a day. By the end of a beach vacation week, you have undoubtedly absorbed a heck of a lot of toxins through your skin, depending on the product(s) you used each day.
That’s why I consult the EWG every spring and choose one of their recommended sunscreens.The EWG considers zinc oxide and titanium dioxide as the safest sunscreen ingredients to effectively block UV-B radiation. The EWG even considers nanoparticles of these compounds as safe for skin application, since the nanoparticles aren’t apparently absorbed into the skin, at least according to blood tests. From my experience though, blood tests don’t usually tell the whole story. Toxins can bioaccumulate in the body’s tissues without continuously circulating in the blood, where it can be extracted during a blood test. The detrimental environmental impact of nanoparticles is another matter you may wish to consider before choosing a product utilizing this technology.
Which SPF to Choose?
We’ve been trained to look for the highest possible SPF. I think the general, nonscientific consensus is that if you want to protect yourself from sunburn, you want the higher number — because in Western culture, more is better. But a super-high SPF is no guarantee of protection. You have no doubt witnessed people at the beach or the pool spraying on a product touting an SPF 50, missing large swaths of their skin surface, only to have angry red splotches and bands of sunburn at the end of the day.
When some people apply a sunscreen of 50 or 60, they think they can spend the whole day out in the sun, completely protected from damaging ultraviolet rays of the sun. But they aren’t. Although most of the discussion re: skin cancer is centered over our exposure to ultraviolet light, some believe that all frequencies of electromagnetic radiation can have biological effects and in excess can cause skin damage, including cancer formation. And, by the way, I’m one of them. You have no doubt heard that melanoma can occur between your toes and in other parts of your body where the sun don’t shine!
What I Recommend
Taking antioxidants such as 1000 mg Vitamin C twice a day is a great supplement that can help rid your body of unwanted potentially damaging compounds brought from excessive sun exposure. In addition to taking antioxidants, I do recommend you wear sunscreen if you plan to spend an extended amount of time in the summer sun. Check out the Environmental Working Group’s sunscreen list. See how your usual product rates and then choose from among the many brands they deem safe. I personally like thinksport for lip protection and sunumbra for body and face. But, there are many excellent brands to choose from.
I believe SPF choice is personal and dependent on skin type. I personally wear a sunscreen with a lower SPF because I like to feel the sun’s intensity so I can better judge when I’ve had enough and need to either head inside, or go under cover. Regardless of the SPF you choose, if you are going to be spending the whole day out in the sun at the beach or elsewhere, bring an umbrella, a hat, sunglasses, and perhaps long-sleeve clothing to cover up in when you’ve had enough sun exposure. Plan to spend at least part of the day under cover. Giraffes do it, so can we!

A few days ago, I sent my friend Ed in Michigan a link to Andrew Harvey’s Vimeo, “Rumi Returning: The Triumph of Divine Passion.” Ed, a Rumi scholar in his own right, called yesterday morning to thank me and discuss the book he is immersed in at the current time: “The Soul of Rumi: A New Collection of Ecstatic Poems,” translated by Coleman Barks. At least I thought that was the book he mentioned; our phone line was crackly, and I only heard part of the title. If that was the title, the book sounded so familiar, but I couldn’t exactly place where I’d heard about it. We eventually went on to discuss another of our Coleman Barks favorites, “The Illuminated Rumi,” one I am more familiar with, as I open it frequently to read Rumi’s words and admire the exquisite illustrations by Michael Green.
A few hours after Ed’s and my conversation, my daughter Julie brought me a book, asking if it was mine. It was, as you might guess, “The Soul of Rumi: A New Collection of Ecstatic Poems”! I still couldn’t place it and thought it might belong to my son-in-law, David, who also loves poetry. If it was mine, it had been a long time since I’d opened it. (We have many shelves in our home, filled with books, so losing track of one for an extended period of time isn’t that hard to do.) I did, however, find it interesting that she was bringing me the exact book that I thought, and was now fairly certain, Ed had mentioned just a few hours earlier. Julie, by the way, hadn’t been home when we were talking on the phone, so she knew nothing about my earlier association to the very book she was holding in her hand.
As you can imagine from reading my blog posts in the past, things got even more interesting from there…
After talking to Julie, I went back to editing my latest work in progress and landed – within a few sentences – on a journaling example from 2006 I’d included in the manuscript. I included this specific journal entry because it illustrates so well how a similar meaningful coincidence often appears in “clusters.” Does it surprise you that this old journal entry is the only place in my manuscript that I mention the “The Soul of Rumi: A New Collection of Ecstatic Poems”? Ha! I now realized why the title sounded so familiar when Ed brought it up to me!
From my book “Synchronicity Journaling: Working with Dreams, Visions, and Meaningful Coincidence”:
Synchronicity Journal Entry 8/22/2006: Do Not Go Back to Sleep!
I am lying in bed, thinking about Wayne Dyer’s appearance on PBS last night and his advice to those who find themselves wide awake in the wee hours of the morning: “The morning breeze is calling us. Do not go back to sleep.” Dyer was talking about listening to the soul’s urge to be present to inspiration during the magical time before dawn when the rest of one’s world is still sleeping. It is now 5:00 am, and I am sleepy and resisting his advice. However, I do finally sit up and wait for the ‘deep thoughts’ to come. Luckily, I am easily side-tracked, and as I take my journal off the top of my bookshelf, my eye catches the title of a book that seems to be calling to me, “The Soul of Rumi: A New Selection of Ecstatic Poems” translated by Coleman Barks. I reach for the book and open it at random to a poem titled “Evidence.” In the last few stanzas of the poem, I find these words, “Some sleep, others lie awake. The Friend gets up in the early dawn and goes outdoors…” Interestingly, this metaphor is also expressing finding something in the pre-dawn hours. I begin to wonder if Dyer’s quote came from Rumi. He probably announced the source, but I missed that somehow.
2nd Synchronicity Journal Entry 8/22/2006: Do Not Go Back to Sleep/Ask for What You Want!
Later in the day, I opened an email from the One Consciousness website titled Sufi Wisdom and read the quote attached: “The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you; don’t go back to sleep. You must ask for what you really want; don’t do back to sleep. People are going back and forth across the doorsill where two worlds touch. The door is round and open. Don’t go back to sleep” – Jalaluddin Rumi
Wow! I didn’t have to think long about how these messages were related to personal meaning in my life. I admire Rumi as a creative and prolific spiritual genius, so advice coming from his work has special significance for me. While holding down a full-time corporate marketing job, I have not had enough time to pay attention to my own creative projects. Being a morning person and often too tired at night from working full-time to think creatively once I get home, I realize that the best time I have to work on my personal projects is in the early hours of each day. Putting the advice from these meaningful coincidences into practical use, I will work on making it a habit to wake without an alarm each morning, reciting words of encouragement “Do not go back to sleep!” to myself until I am fully present and ready to greet whatever inspiration offers itself up in the predawn hours. (End of 2006 journal entries)
Interestingly, I am now retired, can sleep in as late as I want, but have been waking at 5 am for several mornings in a row (we’re back in 2016 if I lost you), the perfect time (I am reminded above) to work on my book when our busy multigenerational household is at rest and our place is quiet for a change. As mentioned in the journal entry, I am a morning person; that is when inspiration in my writing comes most easily to me. I know this, but our Berkeley house is chilly at that early hour, so I have been burrowing more deeply under the covers and going right back to sleep. Now, the warning “Do not go back to sleep!” reverberates once again in my thoughts and makes getting up and listening at the door where “the two worlds touch” more attractive even than a cozy bed.
And yes, “The Soul of Rumi” was the book Ed had alluded to and the one I now felt compelled to revisit after three meaningful coincidences – my friend’s mention, my daughter’s question, and my 2006 journal entry – so I opened it at random to see what treasure awaited me in its pages this time around. (According to Jung, three is the magic number of the same synchronicity showing up in a cluster of different events to alert one to something important from the unconscious that is ready to come fully into consciousness.)
Be careful all you radical materialists out there! The passage on page 230 of “The Soul of Rumi” that I opened to might make you, for good and all, a believer in the strange workings of a spirit-filled and conscious universe:
“Now I lay me down to stay
awake. Pray the Lord my soul
to take into your wakefulness,
So that I can get this one bit
of wisdom clear: grace comes to
forgive and then forgive again.”
So, there you have it, a synchronicity cluster spanning across 10 years of time with meaningful coincidences reminding me over and over to stay awake, pay attention, and honor those liminal times and spaces where two worlds touch. And all this because of an intuition to share a video with my friend who loves Rumi. His happiness would have been reward enough, but I am grateful for what joyful meaning has been added to my own life in excess of that.
It thrills me the way that this loving and generous world shares meaningful messages freely—pure grace, if you will—for our personal edification and growth; our only requirement being that we pay attention and listen at the threshold between the worlds of mind and matter.

Being a creative person is the best thing in times of trauma, sadness and general unhappiness. Being creative provides you with an outlet that may not otherwise exist; a space to release all the inner burdens. I had a series of panic attacks last year as a result of some emotional baggage and initially they were out of control and horrific. They are very physical events that consume your entire body. I’d never experienced anything like them before so it was something entirely new and very unpleasant. However, as usual art came to my rescue and I found refuge in it as an expressive tool. Having experienced the physicality of the panic attacks, it seemed natural to translate this kinetic experience into the art-making process. Consequently I created a series of works, what I call my ‘Panic Attack Series’.
Given the process it took in creating them, they could be considered Action Paintings. Action Painting first came into being in the late 1940s and early 50s with pioneering artists such as Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning leading the way. Action Painting is a loose and fluid mode of art making in which the paint is dripped or smeared onto the canvas. In this instance I was smearing it on, using my forearm as a brush which given the friction between the paint and paper was painful at times. Yet this pain became part of the piece. Working large scale was necessary as I required the breathing space to expel my negative energy. The works are far from perfect, but I think my vitality comes across especially given the unconscious circular motions I ended up working in. I was surprised to find I visualised my panic attacks as circles and this meant that they went from being a nightmarish experience to a visual object which I think aided my healing process. I was not surprised by the fact black felt like the only suitable colour; darkness and the heaviness of my emotions was encapsulated perfectly in this palette.
I also did some smaller charcoal renditions which looked almost like circular sound waves (top right of the above photo). I think the need to get messy was an instinctive impulse I had in these expressive works. Sitting tidily working in a sketchbook would not have had the same impact. I needed to immerse myself physically as well as mentally in the work to be truly unburdened.
And it definitely worked. The creation of these pieces was incredibly liberating and I literally felt like a weight had been lifted. My shoulders felt lighter and my head felt clearer. It was as if by creating these works I had expelled this mass of black energy from my system and I was free to start again.

Selective Inactivity of Pyrazinamide against Tuberculosis in C3HeB/FeJ Mice Is Best Explained by Neutral pH of Caseum
- Additional Document Info
- View All
Pyrazinamide (PZA) is one of only two sterilizing drugs in the first-line antituberculosis regimen. Its activity is strongly pH dependent; the MIC changes by several orders of magnitude over a range of pH values that may be encountered in various in vivo compartments. We recently reported selective inactivity of PZA in a subset of C3HeB/FeJ mice with large caseous lung lesions. In the present study, we evaluated whether such inactivity was explained by poor penetration of PZA into such lesions or selection of drug-resistant mutants. Despite demonstrating similar dose-proportional PZA exposures in plasma, epithelial lining fluid, and lung lesions, no dose response was observed in a subset of C3HeB/FeJ mice with the highest CFU burden. Although PZA-resistant mutants eventually replaced the susceptible bacilli in BALB/c mice and in C3HeB/FeJ mice with low total CFU burdens, they never exceeded 1% of the total population in nonresponding C3HeB/FeJ mice. The selective inactivity of PZA in large caseous lesions of C3HeB/FeJ mice is best explained by the neutral pH of liquefying caseum.

A quick one day visit to the East Riding of Yorkshire. I am quite excited about this section as it will see me achieve a number of firsts and milestones. I would be leaving Yorkshire and crossing over into Lincolnshire, as well as walking through Hull, a place I had never visited before. Perhaps the highlight would be the walk over the Humber Bridge, a bridge that I had never crossed over before this day.
I set off early and made excellent time to Barton-on-Humber, which sits just below the Humber Bridge on the Lincolnshire side. It is a sleepy little town and I was able to park close to the railway station. I caught the “Fast cat” #350 bus into Hull. The bus seemed to take an age as we had to keep on waiting to keep on time with the published timetable. I got off at Hull railway station, which is also where the main bus station is. I caught the #77 bus towards Withernsea, and sat on the front seats of a double-decker, something I had not done for years. I got off at the village of Thorngumbald and popped into the local Spar shop for a few supplies. I had to start at Thorngumbald because I was prevented from continuing along the seawall on my previous trip because of ongoing works. I picked up the quiet road to the village of Paull.
Close to Paull Holme Nature Reserve I passed a number of newly constructed gas installations, I could also see the work on the sea wall that had caused my diversion to Thorngumbald. The footpaths marked on my OS map have long since disappeared amid the high security fencing of the gas processing plants. Soon after I left the road and I headed down a track which took me onto the seawall. I passed around the historic Fort Paull, the historic Napoleonic battery fortress which is now a museum and houses a huge Blackburn Beverley Aircraft (a former heavy-duty transport plane used by the RAF). I could see the huge tail fins of the aircraft, but nothing of the rest of the museum which was hidden by trees. I entered the small village of Paull and was surprised to see at least three pubs, very close to each other. I left the village and got onto the sea wall again. I met a dog walker and struck up a conversation with him, he was the former mayor of Hedon and he gave me a brief history of the area.
I reached the outer industrial area of Hull and began the long straight walk along the very busy A1033. I was separated from the dual carriageway, which had no verge and continued along the dual cycle/footpath. I passed a number of cream telephone kiosks which are a throwback from when Hull or should I say Kingston had its own independent municipal telephone network (now privatised). I started to count roundabouts, as this was the only clue to know where I am and where I needed to get back to the Humber shore. Shortly after passing HMP Hull I headed across the dual carriageway and onto a new shore side housing development, now on the site of former Victoria docks. I passed around a very striking building, similar to the prow of a large ship, this was the Deep a large aquatic centre. I passed through the old part of Hull, with its cobbled street and continued onto the Albert Dock.
I had to look carefully for a footpath that would take me onto the Albert Dock, which I managed to find. After crossing a lock gate I followed high palisade fencing that guided me through the docks and onto a high gantry where I was able to look down at the ships and quays. This was really great because most of the time I pass around docks I have had to keep to industrial roads, here I was able to walk through on high. I kept on the path which was sandwiched between the docks and the estaury. The Albert Dock gave way to the St Andrews Quay, which is now a huge out-of-town retail park alongside the A63.
The footpath became very overgrown with grass and ran alongside the A63 into the village of Hessle. I pick up the start of the Wolds Way and pass underneath the Humber Bridge. It was very busy in this area, with a small beach and the Humber Bridge Country Park. I had to climb quite steeply up through tree-lined paths to get onto the bridge itself. The sun which had been hidden behind clouds for most of the day now made an appearance. It seems the eastern footpath of the bridge was closed so I was confined to the western footpath. The bridge itself is a outstanding achievement in engineering and an impressive sight. The bridge was very busy with walkers and cyclist alike, admiring the brilliant views. I reached the far side and entered Barton-on-Humber in Lincolnshire. A great days walk with the passage through the docks and the crossing of the Humber the two main highlights.

Remodelling your home is an exciting time, and there are so many options to choose from to improve the look of your property. Installing new flooring is the perfect way to give rooms a new lease of life. Two types of flooring that are incredibly popular right now are hardwood and tile. Here we take a look at the pros and cons of both materials to help you make the best decision.
Wood gives a clean, simple and inviting look to your room, and its charm lies in the fact it looks so natural. New hardwood flooring can look like part of your home’s original design.
Hardwood flooring is incredibly durable as long as you give it a bit of TLC now and then. If cared for properly hardwood flooring can last a lifetime.
Should you scratch your hardwood flooring it is repairable, as a simple sand and polish can bring it back to its former glory. If you suffer from allergies then hardwood flooring is a better option over carpet, which tends to trap dust and grime.
Hardwood flooring takes a bit of maintenance, especially in high traffic areas. Walking on wooden boards is also noisy, there’s no sneaking around a house with hardwood flooring.
It’s not the most versatile flooring available as it shouldn’t be used in areas of high moisture such as bathrooms and kitchens. Water will soak into the boards and cause them to swell and crack. For inspiration, try companies such as wood floor warehouse, who stock everything from engineered hardwood to white laminate flooring.
Tile is one of the most durable flooring material available and it’s also very easy to maintain. Tile is great when installed on top of underfloor heating and requires only light dusting and hoovering to keep clean. Tile is very adaptable and can be used in almost any room, and goes perfectly in wet areas such as bathrooms and kitchens.
If your room doesn’t benefit from underfloor heating then tile flooring can be quite cold underfoot, so slippers or extra thick socks will be required. Tile can be tricky to install and may be a little too difficult for the casual DIYer. Tile doesn’t dampen sound in a room, so can lead to an echoing empty feel, while wet tiles are a slip hazard.

'Leave My Husband Alone': Transportation Secretary Yells At Protestors Confronting McConnell with Trump's Crying Migrant Kids
Transporation Secretary Elaine Chao shouted at protesters Tuesday demonstrating against her husband, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, while leaving an event.
The protesters played a recording of children crying in one of the immigrant detention facilities filled by children who were separated from their parents under the policies of Presiden Donald Trump.
"Why are you separating families?" one of the protesters shouts at McConnell as he leaves a building, as seen in a video posted by a Twitter user known as Roberto.
While McConnell appears to ignore the protesters as he climbs into the car waiting for them, Chao began a shouting match with the group as she walked around the back of the vehicle.
"Why don't you leave my husband alone?" Chao replies. Asked again why he's separating families, Chao said. "He is not!"
"He's got the power to stop it!" one of the protesters shouts back.
"You leave my husband alone!" she demands again.
"How does he sleep at night?!" bellows another protester before Chao makes her way into the car.
Watch the video below:

Comstock Announces Approval of Return of Capital
Vancouver, BC –November 6, 2020 – Comstock Metals Ltd. (TSX-V: CSL) (“CSL” or the “Company”) announces that the shareholders and the board of directors of the Company (the “Board“) have approved the previously announced distribution of an aggregate of 1,000,000 common shares of E3 Metals Corp. (TSX-V: ETMC) and 1,387,210 common shares of White Gold Corp. (TSX-V: WGO) (the “Distribution Shares“) to shareholders of the Company. The distribution of the Distribution Shares will be effected as a reduction in the stated capital of the common shares of the Company (the “Return of Capital“). The Return of Capital was approved by shareholders of the Company at the annual general and special meeting held on October 19, 2020 (the “Meeting“).
The Return of Capital will be distributed to shareholders pursuant to the TSX Venture Exchange’s due bill trading policy. Pursuant to such policy:
- The record date (the “Record Date“) to determine shareholders of CSL entitled to the Return of Capital is November 13, 2020.
- The due bill trading period will commence on November 12, 2020 (one trading day prior to the Record Date, so that trades settling after the Record Date have due bills attached) and conclude at the close of the Payment Date (as defined below);
- The payment or distribution date (the “Payment Date“) will be November 25, 2020;
- The ex-distribution date will be November 26, 2020 (the next trading day following the Payment Date, so that trades on and after that date will not have due bills attached); and
- The due bill redemption date will be November 27, 2020 (the trading day following the ex-distribution date, when all trades with due bills attached have settled).
For clarification, “due bills” will represent the Return of Capital that CSL’s shareholders will be entitled to receive. The due bills will be deemed to be attached to CSL’s common shares (“Shares“) one trading day prior to the Record Date, and will continue to be attached to CSL’s Shares until the end of the Payment Date. Accordingly, CSL’s Shares will trade on a “due bill” basis from November 12, 2020 until close of trading on November 25, 2020 (the “Due Bill Period“). This means that persons who sell their Shares during the Due Bill Period shall also sell their entitlement to the Return of Capital to the purchasers of such Shares. CSL’s Shares will commence trading on an ex-distribution basis (i.e. without an attached “due bill” entitlement to the distribution) from the opening of trading on November 26, 2020 (i.e. the next trading day after the Payment Date). The due bills will be redeemed on November 27, 2020 once all trades with attached due bills entered during the Due Bill Period have settled.
Based on the current issued and outstanding common shares of the Company, shareholders are expected to receive approximately 0.03947 of an E3 Metals Corp. share and 0.05476 of a White Gold Corp. share for each common share of the Company held as of the Record Date. No fractional interests in Distribution Shares will be distributed in connection with the Return of Capital, and any such interests will be rounded down to the nearest whole Distribution Share.
The Distribution Shares have not, and will not, be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Shareholders do not need to take any action. Computershare Investor Services Inc., the Company’s transfer agent, will send to registered shareholders the Distribution Shares representing the return of capital and beneficial shareholders will have their brokerage accounts automatically updated to reflect the Return of Capital.
Eligible shareholders are strongly cautioned to consult with their financial, broker, legal, tax and/or investment advisors regarding any matters pertaining to the Return of Capital and the tax consequences associated therewith.

NEW YORK CITY — The city's Department of Transportation doled out roughly 6,500 tickets to restaurants over issues with their bike delivery messengers between April 2013 and August 2014 — with the most fines going to Domino's Pizza, according to data obtained by DNAinfo New York.
The ubiquitous pizza franchise racked up 58 violations at sites across the city and paid $7,000 in penalties, according to statistics released by the Department of Transportation.
The chain was amongst the thousands of businesses fined since the start of the the DOT's Commercial Bicycle Unit team, which is tasked with upholding 2013 commercial bicycle safety rules launched in a bid to rein in out-of-control delivery bikers.
The unit's six inspectors ticketed more than 2,800 businesses — for a total of $754,300 in fines — between April 22, 2013 and August 28, 2014, data show.
The Domino's Boreum Hill location at 146 Smith Street got slapped with six tickets and had to pay $900 in fines, data show. A Midtown East franchise on 52nd Street and 1st Ave and an Upper West location at West 107th Street on Amsterdam Ave, also got five tickets each, according to the DOT data.
A spokeswoman for the company said she could not comment on the matter, as each franchise was owned by independent business owners.
The majority of businesses ticketed by the unit were restaurants located in Manhattan, with the East Village and the Lower East Side leading the list with 307 summonses. The Upper East Side came in second with 224 summons while Hell’s Kitchen came in third with 218 summons, data show.
The bike unit does not write any tickets for traffic violations, since traffic rules are enforced by the NYPD, a DOT spokeswoman said.
Gotham Pizza came in second for most ticketed restaurants, with two Upper East Side locations at 1143 York Ave and 1667 1st Ave, both getting 11 tickets each. The pizza franchise had to pay $4,150 in penalties, data show.
Atomic Wings restaurants came in third, with the chain stores across the city getting 29 fines totaling $4,100, data show.
Atomic Wings Franchisor Founder and CEO Adam Lippin said he was surprised by the data and would ask his franchisers to provide additional training to their deliverymen.
“Safety is critical. We have delivery people and costumers on our streets so safety is our number 1 priority. We obviously need to make a better job at training some of our stores,” Lippin said.
The commercial bicycles rules' main goal is to promote safety, officials said, with regulations that require businesses to equip their delivery bikers with a helmet and a retro-reflective vest. The law also requires the delivery bikes to have lights and bells and put their bikers through an online safety course and maintain their contact information and bike ID number in a roster.
But some businesses said they felt the regulations were more of an additional administrative burden for them.
"I think if they'd like to make the streets safer they should enforce more traffic rules (rather than these rules)" said Mohammed, the owner of SAS Deli and Grocery on 1371 First Avenue, which has had to pay $1,100 for eight tickets, according to DOT data.
"I mean it's fine, it's just more regulations but we had to pay a lot of money at once (when we got fined) and we're a small business," said the 31-year-old owner who did not want to give his last name.
The top ticketed independent businesses included Sunny & Annie Deli on 94 Avenue B which got 10 tickets, followed by East Side Bagel Café on 1496 1st Ave and New York Style Eats on 45-02 Queens Boulevard — which both got 9 fines, data show.
The DOT held forums around the city educating restaurants about the rules and handing out free gear before enforcing the law two years ago, but several businesses said they were surprised when the DOT team showed up at their doors.
"We weren't aware of the rules until we got ticketed," said David Choi, an employee of Sunny & Annie's Deli in the East Village.
Like 90 percent of the fines issued citywide, seven of the summons issued to Sunny & Annie's Deli were first time offenses, costing $100 each, data show.
Second time offenses, which cost $250 and are issued when an establishment is in violation of the same criteria 31 days after the first summon was issued, were mainly issued because the businesses failed to maintain the proper commercial bike forms and did not provide bike equipment, data show.
Additionally, data show that almost 40 percent of the violations were issued because businesses did not have or correctly maintain the required bike roster.
"I think (these rules) are more an administrative thing than anything else," Choi said.
See how much the city collected monthly by issuing violations to businesses using commercial bikes since the enforcement of the law in 2013.

GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is the “cool,” calming, and relaxing neurotransmitter.
Dopamine and noradrenaline (or norepinephrine) are the “feel-good” neurotransmitters that energize, focus, and motivate you.
Acetylcholine helps with thinking, memory, and concentration.
Serotonin is the “happy,” calming neurotransmitter that also enhances sleep.
When these neurotransmitters are out of balance, you may feel depressed, anxious, stressed, and unmotivated. You may also have impaired memory and sleep, as well as a painful condition called fibromyalgia. Balanced neurotransmitters, on the other hand, will help you feel calm, happy, and able to think and remember clearly. Additionally, you will experience less pain and sleep soundly.
You’ve heard the phrase, “You are what you eat.” This definitely applies to the brain. Proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, as well as a myriad of micronutrients are needed for optimal brain function. Our ingested protein is broken down by digestive processes into its component amino acids. The important amino acids for optimal brain function are tryptophan, tyrosine, GABA, glutamine, and glycine. They are converted into neurotransmitters with the help of cofactors, or chemical helpers including vitamins B3, B6, B12, C, and folic acid (folate), and the minerals zinc, copper, and magnesium. Magnesium is a calming mineral, and its deficiency can lead to anxiety. You also need fish-oil-based omega-3 fatty acids. Fats comprise about 60% of each brain cell, providing the complex, pliable cell wall in which neurotransmitter activity takes place.
Then there’s glucose (blood sugar). Your brain can use up to half of the body’s glucose at any one time. That’s why we feel so good when we have a sugar high—it goes right to our brain, where it’s burned for fuel. The same is true of processed foods, alcohol, and caffeine. You’ll get a quick high, but in a short time, your blood sugar dips and so does your mood, with resulting anxiety and depression. For more details on the food-mood-nutrient connection, refer to my book Natural Highs.
In addition to foods, certain medications, including antihistamines, tranquilizers, sleeping pills, narcotics, and recreational drugs can affect your brain chemistry, as discussed in my book, Supplement Your Prescription.
Depression and Anxiety:
In my own practice, I evaluate patients for specific deficiencies, then supply the missing nutrients. In depression, there is often a lack of mood-stabilizing serotonin, made from the essential amino acid tryptophan. This is found in protein-containing foods such as turkey, chicken, cottage cheese, avocados, bananas, and wheat germ. Supplementation with the amino acid 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), a downstream metabolite of tryptophan, can help your brain manufacture more serotonin. Fibromyalgia patients often have low levels of serotonin and 5-HTP has been helpful in relieving their symptoms by promoting deep sleep.
The “catecholamine” or stimulating neurotransmitters, adrenaline, norepinephrine, and dopamine, also found in protein foods, are the brain chemicals associated with motivation, focus, and energy. Deficiencies can result in cravings for sugar, coffee, or alcohol. The good news is that supplementation with the amino acids tyrosine and phenylalanine can help your brain manufacture more of the energizing catecholamines. Add in the amino acid, glutamine, which goes right to the brain, and those cravings become history. In cases of anxiety, there is a deficiency in the neurotransmitter GABA, the brain’s “chill-factor.”
Balanced blood sugar levels, essential for sustained mood and energy, require a diet that contains complex carbs as opposed to simple sugars. Micronutrients that help balance blood sugar levels include: chromium, vanadium, alpha lipoic acid (ALA), and N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC).
Over my many years of practice, I have found that patients did better when I simplified their program, as I have in formulating Metabolic Maintenance’s Brain Recovery AM & PM Packets. These packets contain all of my recommended brain essentials.
The AM packet contains the more energizing amino acids; phenylalanine, glutamine, tyrosine, and DLPA, which together help improve mood, energy, and focus. It also contains heart-healthy EPA and DHA omega-3 fish oil, which enhances mood, learning, focus, and attention, while simultaneously regulating inflammation. Also included in the AM packet are essential vitamins for optimum nutrition and brain function, such as vitamins A, C, D, E, K, and all B vitamins. Additional important micronutrients for brain function in the AM formula include: ALA, NAC, iodine, selenium, manganese, chromium, molybdenum, and choline. The detoxifying herb silymarin is also included in the AM packet.
The PM packet contains the calming glycine, theanine, and 5-HTP amino acids, along with glutamine, which help to enhance mood, wind down from the day’s activities, and experience relaxation and restful sleep. Calcium and magnesium are in the PM packet, as well as zinc, chromium, Vitamin C, and vitamin B6. Like the AM packet, the PM packet contains brain and heart-nourishing fish oil.
This program assures that when my patients take their supplements, they are doing so at the right times and in the right proportions, with no need to deal with various bottles. The results have been gratifying, with increased compliance and greater overall success.

By guest bloggers Julia Koppich and Daniel Humphrey
The recent ruling by Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Rolf Treu striking down parts of California’s long held teacher tenure laws has roiled California’s educational landscape. Whatever the impact of the ruling, one thing is clear. Whether one supports or opposes the Vergara decision the ruling raises critical issues regarding teaching quality with which California policymakers soon must grapple in order to strengthen the state’s system of teaching and learning. Addressing these issues will require thoughtful and careful state action that builds on a foundation of solid understanding of teachers’ experiences in school districts throughout the state.
A year ago we released a study titled, “California’s Beginning Teachers: The Bumpy Path to a Profession.” That work focused on California policies, including tenure (called permanence in the Education Code) and evaluation, which shape beginning teachers’ careers. Our findings reveal how California policy has failed early career teachers. Legislative remedies for these inequities could serve as a precursor to addressing the challenges posed by the Vergara decision.
Teachers Don’t Get Tenure after Two Years
First, contrary to assertions about a too quick path to tenure, our research shows that most California teachers do not experience getting tenure as a 2-year process.
State policy assumes that teachers are hired into probationary positions and, after 2 years of successful teaching as measured by performance evaluations, are awarded tenure (permanence). This description does not match the reality for most California teachers.
According to available state data, most teachers are hired into temporary or other non-probationary status, and do not reach probationary status for many years. This pattern has continued for more than a decade. Under the California Education Code, districts replacing a teacher on leave of absence or filling a position supported by temporary funds (e.g., grants, non-mandatory categorical funds) can hire teachers on temporary status. Our study showed, however, that some districts cannot specify the teacher on leave teacher for whom the temporary teacher is filling in or the grant or special fund that is paying for the temporary teacher’s position.
Teachers who are classified as temporary do not accrue time toward tenure. As a result, in 2000, only 31% of third-year teachers and, in 2012, only 45% of third-year teachers had permanent status. The 2-years-to-tenure policy bears little relationship to the experience of the majority of California’s teachers. The amount of time it should take to earn tenure remains a valid topic of debate. What is not debatable is that, with regard to tenure, many teachers’ realities do not match current state policy.
Evaluation Does Not Differentiate Between Effective and Ineffective
Second, evaluation does not adequately differentiate between effective and ineffective teachers. Moreover, for most teachers, evaluation is not useful, accurate, fair, or meaningful.
The Vergara decision states that 1% to 3% of teachers are “grossly ineffective.” But not only is there no empirical evidence as to the number of ineffective teachers, our “Bumpy Path” study found that the current evaluation system does a poor job of determining teacher effectiveness. Most teachers find the evaluation system that is supposed to determine their effectiveness to be inadequate and inconsistent. More importantly, teachers say their evaluation is largely unhelpful in diagnosing their needs or designing support for them. Many principals we interviewed concur with this view.
To better understand the quality of teacher evaluations, we examined a sample of beginning teachers’ official evaluation records. We found that these files contained little documentation of teacher performance and almost no guidance to the teacher about how to improve. The vast majority of teachers received an “effective” rating, though the basis for that rating, however legitimate, was unclear.
Compounding this dilemma, whether a teacher is supported or evaluated at all depends on the teacher’s employment status. State policy requires only that probationary teachers--those on the path to tenure--be evaluated. Teachers serving in temporary status, even for several years, often are neither supported nor evaluated.
Remedying the challenges raised by Vergara hinges on an accurate and meaningful evaluation system. California should require that all teachers, regardless of status, be supported and evaluated. Policymakers, working with stakeholders should develop a system that ensures teachers are fairly and consistently evaluated and given opportunities to improve. Once teachers are identified as ineffective, they should enter a peer assistance and review program that offers a thorough assessment of areas of weakness, deep support, and a targeted path to improvement or exit.
Absent clear and consistently applied tenure regulations, accurate and meaningful evaluation focused on support and improvement, and a program for addressing ineffective teachers, California will be hard-pressed to successfully address the policy challenges that lie at the heart of Vergara.

ETW Staff – Mumbai
Hotel brand and management company Dream Hotel Group has signed its first hotel in the Middle East with Qatar-based Al Alfia Holding to develop a Dream Hotel in Doha. Dream Hotel Group also took the opportunity to announce US$ 200 million in properties in India at Goa and Jaipur and another US$ 1.5 billion in new hotel development, including Doha and five other locations, all with independent hotel development partners. Sant Singh Chatwal is the chairman of Dream Hotel Group.
“We are thrilled that the Dream brand of hospitality, marked by vibrant nightlife and dining opportunities, has resonated so widely. These new developments double the footprint of our founding brand and give our loyal guests many more options to explore the other side of themselves,” said Jay Stein, CEO, Dream Hotel Group.
The Dream Hotels brand is on track to have five hotels operating in the US by early 2019, with an additional opening in Doha, Dream Hotels’ first foray into the Middle East. India development will begin this year and the properties are expected to be ready by 2019 – 2020.

NEW DELHI: Delhi-based component major Amtek Group is going in for a major restructuring exercise as part of which it will consolidate all its Indian companies under group flagship Amtek Auto.
The companies to be consolidated will include Amtek India, Ahmednagar Forgings, Benda Amtek and Amtek Siccardi.
Domestic restructuring is only one part of the total package. Amtek is also consolidating its global operations under its Netherlands-based holding company.
This company will be 100% owned by Amtek Auto, sources said. Amtek’s overseas operations-which include GWK Amtek, Triplex Ketlon, JL French Castings’ Whitham plant, Zelter and Smith & Jones — will be consolidated under the Netherlands-based holding company making it a $700 million entity. Sources say E&Y is acting as the advisor to for the restructuring.
According to industry sources, the management is looking to acquire scale through this consolidation exercise. “Apart from unlocking shareholder value, it will also merge the various entities into a single company with a turnover of around Rs 2,500 crore giving it critical mass,” said a senior consultant source. “That would improve synergies, offer better scope for cost-cutting due to sourcing scale and allow the management to leverage a stronger balance sheet,” he added.
As for the overseas consolidation, the purpose is mostly tax benefits because Netherlands is a tax haven, sources said. Amtek has been very aggressive on the M&A front lately. It’s latest is a Rs 1,700 crore bid for the Frankfurt-based KSM Castings.
Recently, it bought UK-based gear company Triplex Ketlon. The group’s first acquisition was US-based ring gears manufacturer Midwest Manufacturing in 2002, followed by UK-based GWK and Lloyds Brierly Hill. It’s other acquisitions include Sigmacast Iron and the aluminium casting facility of Germany-based Zelter.
Amtek Auto is stepping on the gas in terms of acquisitions at home as well. The company has completed two local acquisitions — Akiel Castings in Pune and Amforge’s conrod division in Delhi — and is also tying up tech collaborations and JVs with global casting companies.

An IDF soldier and a Jewish civilian were wounded Thursday morning in a terror attack at the Hizme checkpoint close to the Hizme checkpoint at the entrance to northern Jerusalem.
“A gunman stopped at the checkpoint near Hizma, exited his vehicle and shot forces on site,” said the IDF in a statement. “The forces responded, shooting the attacker, resulting in his death. Two were wounded, an IDF soldier and a bystander, who received emergency medical treatment.”
Magen David Adom paramedics on the scene treated the 47-year-old civilian and the 20-year-old soldier before evacuating them to a Jerusalem hospital.
The soldier sustained gunshot wounds to his upper body. Both he and the civilian victim are listed in fair condition.
Hizme is located at the northern entrance to Jerusalem, close to the Pisgat Ze’ev and Neve Ya’akov neighborhoods. Security personnel there have foiled numerous terror attacks.
Last year an Arab driver was caught with five multi-launchers for fireworks hidden in his car as he tried to pass through the Hizme checkpoint.
The launchers were used as a weapon of choice for Jerusalem Arabs during riots that followed Operation Protective Edge in 2014.

[JURIST] The Queen’s Bench Division [official website] on the High Court of England and Wales ruled Friday that three elderly Kenyans can sue the British government for torture they suffered while in detention under the British Colonial Administration in the 1950s. Judge Richard McCombe ruled that the three Kenyans could claim damages against the British government [Guardian report] for the harm they sustained at the hands of their captors during the Mau Mau uprising [Leigh Day & Co. backgrounder] in the days of the British Empire. The three claimants, who were not in court to hear the ruling, seek apologies from the British government and reparations in the form of welfare benefit funding for other Kenyan victims of colonial torture.
The three Kenyans suffered horrific ordeals [Reuters report]. Paulo Nzili, 85, was captured on his way home from defecting from the Mau Mau and castrated by in British custody. Wambugu Wa Nyingi, 84, was never a member of Mau Mau but spent nine years in detention without charge, suffering severe beatings that often killed his fellow detainees. Jane Muthoni Mara, 73, was sexually abused and raped while in detention when she was only about 15 years old. There had also been a fourth claimant, Susan Ciong’ombe Ngondi, but she died two years ago at the age of 71.
The government had argued that too much time had passed for there to be a fair trial, but in July 2011 McCombe rejected the contention [JURIST report] that the alleged abuses occurred too long ago and that all liability of the colonial administration passed to the Kenyan government upon gaining independence in 1963. The Kenyans first sued the British government [JURIST report] in June 2009 to bring to court their allegations that they were abused in British Colonial prison camps. The Mau Mau rebellion was led by members of the largely impoverished Kikuyu tribe [Africa Guide backgrounder] and lasted from 1952-1960. The uprising was notorious for atrocities committed by both the rebels and British colonial forces. Official casualty figures eventually set the number of European deaths at 32 and the number of Kenyans killed at just over 11,000. Approximately 90,000 Kenyans were executed, tortured or maimed during the crackdown [AP report] against the Mau Mau, according to the Kenya Human Rights Commission [advocacy website].

From a certain perspective, Leeds United's upcoming Premier League run-in will have the lowest stakes of any in recent memory.
There is no promotion chase, no play-off jeopardy and the final quarter of the season will certainly not see a manager fighting for his job.
Last Friday night's win over Fulham saw Leeds move onto 39 points to virtually assure their place in next season's top flight.
It's somewhat simplistic to call the rest of the season a 'free hit', given the drive of this squad and their head coach, plus the financial rewards that every place in the table bring, but the security that their excellent campaign so far has given them does present opportunities.
Andrea Radrizzani has made it very clear that he dreams of European football in the not-too-distant future and Leeds know that this season's successes must be built on next year.
Marcelo Bielsa is well aware of this and comments that he made before last month's defeat at Wolverhampton Wanderers hint at how he sees the bigger picture.
Leeds will likely get the chequebook out again in the summer, but Bielsa knows that Leeds cannot rely on expensive acquisitions if they are to achieve sustainable Premier League success.
"You see how much a Premier League-standard goalkeeper costs, a Premier League-standard centre-back costs, or a Premier League standard midfielder or right-back costs," he said after discussing the recent performances of Illan Meslier, Pascal Struijk and Jamie Shackleton.
"You’ll see that a club that invested £100m, they need to be able to count on players that they didn’t have to buy and to try and do this and to be able to do this, the young players need minutes. And in some way this is what Leeds is trying to do."
It is a testament to Leeds' joined-up transfer planning that more players wait in the wings.
Mark Jackson's under-23s side are cruising to promotion in their first Premier League 2 season and Leeds' low-stakes run-in can present a pathway for the academy's leading lights to sample first-team football before the campaign is out.
The likes of Sam Greenwood, Niall Huggins and Charlie Cresswell have all been handed debuts this season, while Jack Jenkins and Joe Gelhardt have been regulars in the first-team squad.
Gelhardt's hat-trick on Monday saw the 18-year-old sound another clarion call for a full Leeds United debut, with his recent performances suggesting that the Premier League 2 is simply too low a level for him to be playing it.
Given Bielsa's comments and the situation Leeds find themselves in ahead of the season's final push, that may well come before the campaign out.

The spicy, complex flavors of Korean food are finally getting their due in cocktails. This past December, Korean-American chef Judy Joo opened Jinjuu in the heart of Hong Kong’s Lan Kwai Fong District, with a focus on sojus and the chile-driven flavors of her heritage. A London branch opened at the end of 2014.
“We use kimchi mostly as an additional spice for cocktails,” says Kristian Breivik, the group bar manager, who previously worked at London bars such as Trailer Happiness, Casa Negra and Barrio Central. Jinjuu’s current focus is on kimchi juice, but Breivik’s team is preparing to use actual hunks of kimchi in drinks as well. The soon-to-be-released Kimchi Back is going to be a blend of whole cabbage leaves of kimchi, while its juices and spices will be served as a chilled chaser for soju shots.
Jinjuu is also exploring some traditional Korean drinks on their own and in cocktails. The suffix ju, not surprisingly, means “alcohol” in Korean, and makgeolli, also known as nongju or farmer’s liquor, is made from fermented wheat or rice and often inaccurately called rice wine in English. Makgeolli has been getting a lot of attention from a wide demographic, including hipsters. Bek Se Ju, a Korean spin on sake, is another ingredient the bar is experimenting with.
The Kimchi Mary is made with celery- and black-pepper-infused soju to give it an extra layer of heat. It’s then garnished with gochugaru chile flakes. The Spamarita combines the retro flavors of spam with tequila and is served as a short drink in a charming mini spam box. The Breakfast at JJ’s layers Hwayo 41 soju, yujacha honey tea and fresh yuga citrus juice and is topped with house-made aloe vera foam.
Breivik is mixing less familiar Korean ingredients with more mainstream ones to entice new palates to warm up to the range of flavors. A White Rice Negroni is made with Hwayo 41, Suze gentian root liqueur, vermouth and mandarin bitters and served on a lemon-zest-encased circular ice cube.
The bar is also experimenting with flavored sojus, such as peach, blueberry and pomegranate, that have long had traction in Korea, as well as sojus of different age statements. The Hwayo X. Premium, a rice-based soju that’s aged for five years in used bourbon barrels, is one of the offerings, as is the brand’s overproof soju, which is 53 percent ABV. Hwayo and soju-infusion flights, in favors such as goji berry and red plum, are also available for those who want to jump in and compare.

Center Party chairperson and minister for culture, Annika Saarikko, is the type of leadership Finland needs today unless it wants to climb out of its deep xenophobic pit spearheaded by the Perussuomalaiset (PS)* party.
Considering that her party is being targeted by the PS, which bases its support on spreading suspicion and anti-immigration sentiment, Saarikko’s was quoted as saying in Helsingin Sanomat that Finland needs 10,000 migrants a year to avert a labor shortage is bold considering the attacks by the PS and recent opinion polls.
In the face of Saarikko’s prediction, Finland will find it especially hard to get out of its xenophobic pit if politicians are silent, policymakers are silent, and the public is silent about how to make Finland a more inclusive country and to rid it of politicians who polarize society.
- A Migrant Tales style guide to writing about migration: avoid words that hide our racism and denial (5.3.2021)
- Silence is a statement, acceptance of racism in Finland (16.8.2019)
- Our response to racism, bigotry and hate speech in Finland should be first and foremost a reaction (23.3.2016)
In early March, an opinion poll published by Yle showed that the Center Party was hovering at around historic lows of 11% and trailing the PS by 5.9 percentage points.
One of the aims of PS leader Jussi Halla-aho is that the Center Party will suffer a stinging blow in the municipal elections of June 13. This would force the party to leave the government, leading to its downfall and new elections, where the PS would win and have Halla-aho as prime minister.
One matter is clear: If Finland is to shake off and challenge anti-immigration sentiment, politicians like Saarikko must say it clearly and loudly.
“Anti-immigration sentiment has spread so far that even today labor immigration is started to see in a negative light,” she was quoted as saying in Helsingin Sanomat. “Such an attitude isn’t possible because of what Finland’s dependency ratio [labor shortage and tax base] is. Many may ask what about Finns getting employed. Yes, but when that is not enough either.”
The party that is against bringing labor immigrants to Finland is none other than the PS.

One of the core values at MORJAS is to give back. This includes giving back to our team, to our customers and to our community. Including this core value in our DNA has been natural and one of the most important assets as we grow – it gives us a higher purpose. Since we started our collaboration with Because International and The Shoe That Grows we’ve donated 2360 pairs of shoes. And who made it possible? You.
Each quarter we summarize how much we’ve sold for and then donate 1% of that directly to The Shoe That Grows. So, when investing in something from MORJAS you are personally contributing to this positive cycle of innovation: an echo system that stimulates local economy through the local manufacturing in Kenya and Ethiopia.
471 pairs donated during Q3 2021.
2360 pairs in total since start.

You know when your home is just completely turned upside down, and there’s stuff scattered all over the place at random? Doesn’t feel so good, does it? For the vast majority of us, living in a messy, chaotic, and disordered home results in us becoming agitated, anxious, and feeling like things in our lives are just out of control in general.
Maybe that’s not too surprising when you consider the fact that our home is the intimate space where we sleep, eat, shower, and find ourselves at our most vulnerable. It’s a pretty short trip from there to our home environment influencing our emotions and state of mind. If you find that your home is completely upside down and that you struggle to keep it in any kind of decent order for long, you might do yourself a world of good by finding some techniques to overcome this issue.
So, here are some suggested tips.
Install flooring and use furniture that is easy to clean and doesn’t trap much dirt.
One major reason why some homes seem to stay dirty and dusty pretty much all year round, is that they feature carpets and upholstery that really store all the dust and dirt they come into contact with, the highest imaginable degree. Now, that isn’t necessarily the end of the world, if you’re the kind of person who regularly vacuums, dusts, and attends to the minute cleaning tasks of the home. If you’re a bit less organized and domestically-minded, however, you’re not doing yourself any favors by having dirt-accumulating furnishings in your home.
Sheet vinyl is a cost-effective flooring option that is also easy to clean. Consider switching out your home furnishings for things you can dust off more easily.
Focus on getting your cleaning habits right with regards to the little things — they’re what it’s all about.
You know how your home seems to become a complete dump over-night, looking like a bomb just went off? Well, most of the time, that doesn’t happen overnight after all. It happens a little bit by little bit, over time, as you ignore the small chores and issues in our home and let them pile up.
If you want to keep your home in order, it’s essential that you focus on getting your cleaning habits right with regards to the little things. In fact, that’s what it’s all about. Wash each plate after using it. Sweep the floor whenever you see crumbs on it. If you tackle these issues when they first arise, you’ll never get to the point of having a waste dump to deconstruct.
Reduce clutter as much as possible.
It’s just way easier to clean and tidy a home that isn’t stuffed full of a million random little items. In fact, even just having clutter in your home, to begin with, can prevent it from being a neat and tidy place. Declutter your home and reduce the extra and excessive trinkets, and you automatically simplify your whole environment. Not only will your home become a more tidy, focused, and elegant place as a result, but it will be a whole lot easier to clean, as well.

Second Quarter Operations Analysis
|Three months ended June 30,||Six months ended June 30,|
|Total Adjusted EBITDA||$||22,502||$||23,241||$||40,327||$||26,524|
(1) 2020 comparative information includes the results of Horizon North from May 29, 2020 onwards which was the effective date of the acquisition.
For Q2 2021, Facilities Management revenues were $38.8 million and increased by $9.2 million or 31% from the $29.6 million in Q2 2020. The increase is mainly attributable to the better business conditions as certain COVID-19 restrictions eased. Management expects this upward trend to continue into the future as the population gets vaccinated and provincial COVID-19 restrictions are lifted which will have a positive impact on our airport and retail businesses that experienced revenue declines of approximately $9 million per quarter during the pandemic compared to historic levels.
EBITDA margin increased to 11% for Q2 2021 in comparison to 9% in Q1 2021. The improved margins are mainly due to management's focus on margin improvements and successful integration of a prior acquisition.
Year to date, Facilities Management revenues were $76.8 million and increased by $3.8 million or 5% from the $73.0 million in 2020. The growth in the segment has been less than planned mainly due to the ongoing reduction in operations at certain facilities and delayed proposal activity. Management expects the growth rate to increase as pandemic restrictions are lifted and as new business wins are fueled by the current brisk bidding activity.
Year to date EBITDA margin decreased to 10% in comparison to 18% for the same period in the prior year primarily due to lower wage subsidies when compared to 2020, which was partially offset by stronger project management and management delivering on operational improvements. The EBITDA margins for this segment increased to 9% in YTD 2021 vs 4% in YTD 2020 excluding the impact of CEWS. See the "Non-GAAP measures" section in the MD&A for the definition of "EBITDA as a percentage of revenue".
Workforce Accommodations, Forestry and Energy Services ("WAFES")
WAFES is comprised of two revenue streams: Workforce accommodations & Forestry and Energy Services. A significant portion of our WAFES business is support services which are not capital intensive and aligns closely with our facilities management business.
WAFES revenue performance was strong despite Q2 2021 being negatively impacted by pandemic restrictions on some major projects. The Forestry business had approximately $10 million of Q2 revenues and Q3 activity in this seasonal business is expected to be at a similar level. We also won approximately $40 million of contract renewals during the first half of the year which is a testament to our strong service capability. BC pipeline camps rebounded strongly in June with good utilization, though our Kitimat open camp will likely continue to be closed for the remainder of 2021 due to scheduling of the LNG Canada project. Revenue from the WAFES segment for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $87.5 million, an increase of $51.2 million compared to Q2 2020. The increase in segment revenues was primarily driven by the Acquisition which added $41.4 million to revenue for Q2 2021 and also from increased business volumes.
Revenue from the WAFES segment for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $163.2 million, an increase of $109.9 million compared to Q2 2020. The increase in segment revenues was primarily driven by the Acquisition which added $84.3 million to revenue reported year to date for Q2 2021 and increased business activities as described above.
Year to date, EBITDA as a percentage of revenue was 20% which is a decrease of 7% compared to Q2 2020, for the reasons explained above. Excluding the impact of CEWS, the EBITDA margin improved by 4% as compared with the six-month period ended June 2020. This increase in margin is driven by strong utilization of support services and the addition of new contracts and business in Eastern Canada with the growth of infrastructure and mining projects. This margin is consistent with Q1 2021.
WAFES business is expected to continue to be strong in the back half of 2021 and in 2022 with open camps operating at higher occupancy levels, including Kitimat in 2022. The previously announced new support services contracts with a significant oilsands customer will have a positive impact on Q3 and subsequent quarters. Also, clients have resumed activities in energy projects and the WAFES energy business will benefit from better pricing and higher volume of activity.
Modular Solutions segment revenues for Q2 2021 were $48.2 million, an increase of $6.3 million from Q1 2021. These revenues are primarily focused on rapid affordable housing and portable classrooms. The increased revenue relates to our improving pipeline and our increased capacity with the completion of the Cambridge plant in Q2 2021.
EBITDA for Q2 2021 was $4.7 million, an increase of $1.8 million from Q1 2021. The results reflect the focus on rapid affordable housing projects where performance and execution have been strong. We expect strong margins to continue despite raw materials price fluctuations and project delays as the shorter time between planning projects and completing them for modular is a clear benefit.
Revenue from the Modular segment for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $90.2 million, an increase of $79.1 million compared to 2020 due to the timing of the Acquisition. Year to date EBITDA was $7.6 million.
A key metric for the Modular Solutions segment is the backlog of projects and timing of backlog execution. The focus for this business unit is to secure and increase backlog, which was $98.3 million for rapid affordable housing at the end of Q2 2021. Additionally, Modular Solutions has recurring modular business beyond affordable housing worth approximately $40 million per annum, which mainly consists of portable classrooms and retail stores and kiosks. Management is also currently finalizing contracts worth an additional $42 million with its two primary government customers which are not included in the backlog numbers. A key goal over time is also to diversify our modular product line.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the three months ended June 30, 2021, cash generated by operating activities was $20.2 million, compared to $13.5 million in the same period of 2020. The improvement was driven primarily by stronger working capital management. This cash was used to fund the capital expenditures for the Cambridge NRB plant as well as to repay debt and pay dividends.
The Corporation's financial position and liquidity are strong. The Corporation generated Free Cash Flow of $14.9 million and $27.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. Debt was reduced even with the capital expenditures for the Cambridge plant during the quarter.
In future quarters, principal sources of liquidity will include generated Free Cash Flow and proceeds from the disposal of idle or underutilized assets across its operating segments. As at June 30, 2021, the Corporation was in compliance with all financial and non-financial covenants related to the credit facility.
Debt was $71.9 million and available borrowing capacity was $90.9 million at June 30, 2021.

Certain measures in this news release do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and, therefore, are considered non-GAAP measures. Non-GAAP measures include "EBITDA", calculated as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, depreciation, income (loss) from equity investment, share based compensation, bargain purchase gain (reduction), and gain/loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment. "Adjusted EBITDA", calculated as EBITDA before acquisition costs, and non-recurring items and including Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy ("CEWS"), "EBITDA as a percentage of revenue", calculated as EBITDA divided by revenue, and "Free Cash Flow", calculated as net cash flows from (used in) operating activities, less maintenance capital expenditures, payments for lease liabilities and finance costs, to provide investors with supplemental measures of Dexterra Group's operating performance and thus highlight trends in its core businesses that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures. Dexterra Group also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-GAAP measures in the evaluation of issuers. Dexterra Group's management also uses non-GAAP measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets, and to determine components of management compensation.
These measures are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker and provide investors with an alternative method for assessing Dexterra Group's operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of the Dexterra Group's ongoing operations and to provide a more consistent basis for comparison between periods. These measures should not be construed as alternatives to net earnings and total comprehensive income determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of Dexterra Group's performance. The method of calculating these measures may differ from other entities and accordingly, may not be comparable to measures used by other entities. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their nearest measure under GAAP please refer to "Reconciliation of non-GAAP measures" of Dexterra Group's MD&A.

U.S. high yield spreads reached 1087 bps on March 23 after hovering between 350-400 bps for the first six weeks of the year. Faced with a global health crisis and the ensuing economic shutdown, risk assets sold off dramatically—a rapid shift in investor sentiment reminiscent of the financial crisis. From the peak on February 19 through the trough on March 23, a mere 33 days, high yield spreads widened from 357 bps to 1087 bps, and the market declined 21.5%. Spreads have not reached 1000 bps since the financial crisis, and prior to that, it had been since 2002.
Spreads Widened and Tightened Sharply During COVID-19 Crisis

Markets reacted quite favorably to what many have described as an unprecedented Fed response, coupled with a massive fiscal stimulus plan. Following these actions, high yield spreads plummeted, settling in the 700-800 bps range for a month before tightening further to the low 600s by early July.
When compared with investment grade corporate bonds, high yield offered quite a bit more yield. As of June 30, high yield spreads were 484 bps greater than those of investment grade corporates. With 5-year U.S. Treasuries yielding less than 0.5% and the 10-year yielding sub 1%, high yield has offered higher income potential for investors that are comfortable moving down the risk spectrum.
High Yield has Offered Attractive Yield Spreads Compared to Investment Grade

U.S. High Yield Spreads are represented by ICE BofAML U.S. High Yield OAS Spread; U.S. Investment Grade Corporate Spreads are represented by ICE BofAML U.S. Corporate OAS Spread. Shaded areas indicate U.S. recession. Past performance is no guarantee of future results, which will vary. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
The opportunity for capital appreciation has been greatest after periods of spread widening when there are signs of recovery. As we have witnessed during the current crisis, this inflection can be extremely quick. In fact, it can be a matter of days; during the current crisis, spreads remained wider than 1000 bps for only four days. Since 2000, spreads have been wider than 1000 bps only 5% of the time (on a month end basis) – and almost all of these periods occurred during the financial crisis.
So while history has shown that risk-taking during these times has been rewarded, these times are often filled with uncertainty, change and sometimes crisis. Consequently, timing the market is extremely difficult and we do not advocate doing so. By mis-timing the market, an investor may capture the market decline, but miss out on the subsequent recovery.
We believe that by keeping a long term view and maintaining a strategic allocation to high yield bonds, investors can benefit from income, capital appreciation potential and diversification. Further, investors may also benefit by selecting a skilled manager that can take advantage of short-term noise and dislocations. Still, the question remains—as spreads approach historical averages, what happens now?
The charts below depict median returns of high yield and core bonds since 2000 given corresponding spread ranges. For context, the median spread over the time period is 502 bps. Whether spreads fell below 700 bps or 600 bps, high yield has historically outperformed core bonds. Therefore, despite spreads approaching long-term averages, high yield may still provide investors with favorable investment outcomes. Again, having a long-term view is advantageous – spreads at or modestly wider than 502 bps have produced a median excess return of almost 1500 bps over 3 years, with respect to core bonds. Investing when spreads were 100-200 bps wider than the median has produced 2000 bps of cumulative outperformance on a historical basis.
High Yield has Outperformed Core Bonds as Spreads Approach Historical Averages
Source: Morningstar and Ice Data Indices; 20-year period 06/30/00-6/30/20. High yield is represented by ICE BofAML U.S. High Yield Index; Core bonds are represented by Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Index. Past performance is no guarantee of future results, which will vary. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.
Since the Fed announcement, returns across a number of risk assets have been impressive, high yield included. Given the velocity at which spread momentum moves during inflections, timing spread peaks and troughs is difficult and small missteps may lead to inferior performance versus a long-term approach. The capital appreciation seen during the second quarter has certainly been impressive; however, we still believe opportunities remain for long-term investors to generate attractive levels of income and total returns. As uncertainty is still prevalent in the market and in the world, it is important to choose a manager with a disciplined credit process—one that can uncover opportunities, while also avoiding risk when not being appropriately compensated for risk-taking. When investing in high yield, the how is more important to consider than the when.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results, which will vary. All investments are subject to market risk and will fluctuate in value.
Funds that invest in bonds are subject to interest-rate risk and can lose principal value when interest rates rise. Bonds are also subject to credit risk, in which the bond issuer may fail to pay interest and principal in a timely manner, or that negative perception of the issuer’s ability to make such payments may cause the price of that bond to decline. Investing in below investment grade securities may carry a greater risk of nonpayment of interest or principal than higher-rated bonds.

BRDC F4 Champion George Russell starred on his GP3 prize test with Arden International (Thursday), outpacing many more experienced drivers on newer tyres to post some of the day's fastest times at the Yas Marina Circuit, Abu Dhabi.
The 16-year-old, who claimed the BRDC F4 title at Snetterton in October, was a constant presence at the top of the time sheets, posting the third fastest time in the morning session, fifth fastest in the afternoon, and sixth quickest of the whole day. He was on course to potentially set the fastest lap of the day in the afternoon session, having set best times in the first two sectors, when red flags forced him to abandon his lap. Russell completed 50 laps in total.
Two other BRDC F4 graduates, Seb Morris and Raoul Hyman, were also in action in Abu Dhabi. Both recorded lap times just over one second off the session best. Hyman's day was hindered by technical issues. Both are in action again tomorrow.
Russell commented: “Today has gone better than I could possibly have expected. It was a tough task to learn the car and the circuit in one day but we adapted very well and the speed was there from very early on.
"It was quite easy to adapt to the GP3 car from the F4. It has a similar power-to-grip ratio, but obviously the GP3 car has more all round! It was a big step, but it was quite easily manageable. My performance today has opened up GP3 as a possibility for next year, there are lots of options on the table, and we won't be ruling anything out yet.
"We were running on old tyres in our third run in the afternoon and we had set first and second sectors which would have been good enough to put us overall fastest or at least second. But we had to abort the lap because of a red flag, and this was against drivers on new tyres. Then when we went to put on new tyres, the red flag was still out and it only left us with five minutes when the session restarted.
"I'm very grateful to BRDC F4 for this opportunity. It's given me the chance to show the GP3 paddock and Arden what I'm capable of and hopefully after a successful day it has opened up a couple more doors for me. I wouldn't have had this opportunity if I hadn't competed in BRDC F4!"
GP3 Test, Abu Dhabi, combined classification:
1. Kevin Ceccon, Jenzer, 1m55.501s2. Andrea Pizzitola, ART Grand Prix, 1m55.832s3. Mitchel Gilbert, Arden International, 1m55.885s4. Alex Palou, Trident, 1m55.971s5.

BE A BLOCK HEAD WHEN IT COMES TO NUTRITION
It’s that time again. Summer is quickly gathering behind us, the leaves will soon be aflame in vibrant autumn colors, and before we know it the cornucopia of holiday treats and temptations will be testing our metal quicker than Tom Brady gets into our end zone. There are two things we can do, prior to the holidays, to equip ourselves to more easily navigate the turbulent waters of healthy eating. First, we can educate ourselves on how to eat. Second we can establish good eating habits before the specter of processed sweets are banging at the gates.
The AU Crew been hammering home the benefits of food logging, keeping track of what one is eating, emphasizing portion control, and the use of a block system to ensure one is eating the right amount of food. There has been a windfall of questions regarding using a block system, so I will dive in and explain how it works. I will wrap things up by sharing techniques on establishing healthy eating habits. Start establishing healthy eating habits now to not only make it through the holidays without looking like you lost a fight with Grandma’s green bean almandine and her apple pie, but so that you hit the new year with a sound nutrition plan in place. Make no mistake, this is a battle that you are about to enter. Undisciplined, lazy you versus the disciplined, determined you. The undisciplined, lazy you has been around a long time, is experienced, and knows how to get what is wanted. The disciplined, determined you is younger, well trained, and UNLEASHED. Both combatants are tough; the determined you is tougher. Ultimately, like in every war, it comes down to the individual man or woman on the ground with rifle in hand and determination in their eyes. Generals and battle plans don’t win wars. Sticking the pointy end of the bayonet into the bad guy’s guts is what wins – you must be willing to do the same when it comes to establishing habits. There is no room for half measures and indecision. Ovid said it best: “Either do not attempt at all, or go through with it”.
We know the reason we go to the gym – to make ourselves HARD TO KILL.
“Uhhhhm, sure coach”, some of you may say while in your head you’re thinking, “I don’t know what the hell he is talking about. I’m working my butt off to work off my butt”.
We need to dispel a myth. Weight isn’t lost in the gym. One goes to the gym to build muscle, improve one’s metabolic conditioning, and to improve one’s athleticism and speed. We must rid ourselves of the idea that weight loss and body composition change occurs by burning calories at the gym.
The American Council on Exercise and the University of Wisconsin, LaCrosse, did a study to determine the number of calories the average athlete burns when doing a typical CrossFit style workout. The workouts they chose for the study were Fran and Donkey Kong. Both are typical and popular workouts requiring maximum intensity but whose finish time are heavily dependent on athlete proficiency and fitness level . Using a group of 8 moderately to very fit females and 8 moderately to very fit males ranging in ages from 20-47, the average finish time for Donkey Kong was just over 9 minutes and the average finish time for Fran was just under 6. The average number of calories burned during Donkey Kong was 117. The average number of calories burned during Fran was 63.
Rowing at a pace of 2:00/500m, an average athlete will burn around 30 calories every 1,000m. At the end of a 20-minute, 5k row, one can figure they burned around 150 calories.
What about weight lifting? A Harvard Medical School study published some data on the topic. While it is hard to quantify the terms they use, the info is useful. In 30 minutes of what they call “general” weightlifting a 155 pound individual will burn 112 calories. That same individual doing 30 minutes of “vigorous” weightlifting will burn 223 calories.
Lets put it all together. We have our average, 155 lbs athlete in the gym and ready to chew the face off anyone in their path. They are going to do 15 minutes of “vigorous” squats, then do Donkey Kong followed immediately by Fran. Because this athlete is a highly successful and motivated entrepreneur they can make their own work schedule and can stick around for a follow on 20 minute, 5k row. Upon completion of their training session, standing upright, at the ready, and recovery breathing through their nose, they can celebrate the fact they burned an estimated 442 calories. The have only 3,008 more calories to go to get rid of that pound of fat. Great work. The reality is, however, in all likelihood the average athlete is burning far fewer calories than 442 in each workout. 250-300 is probably the more accurate figure.
So lets take our average athlete (one that wants to loose a pound or 2) and have them complete a 300-calorie workout and lets have them do it 11-12 days in a row, all while taking in 300 fewer calories per day. They could potentially loose a pound of fat. I say potentially because fat can’t be targeted, specifically.
This story is merely to illustrate how inefficient it is to loose weight by relying on the burning of calories while exercising. Weight loss and body composition changes come from the effects of a well-planned and executed strength and conditioning program plus a sound nutrition plan.
In short, lifting weights intensely does two important things for us. It dramatically boosts one’s metabolism. Scientists love to argue over by how much and for how long, but the consensus is that one’s metabolism remains highly elevated for anywhere from 14 to 39 hours after an intense weightlifting session. Think of the metabolism as a car’s engine idle. If a car’s engine is idling high, even while standing still, it’s going to burn more fuel. That’s a bad thing for the wallet but a great thing for the waistline and burning calories. We want to burn as much fuel as possible all day long. All those environmentalists are wrong about energy conservation. Burn baby, burn! All day long. In addition to increasing the engine’s idle speed weightlifting also increases the size of one’s muscle fibers. We were born with all the muscles fibers we going to have. We don’t grow more. We can only make them bigger and stronger. The bigger and stronger (and heavier) muscles are, the more calories they are going to require to simply exist. Think of this as the metabolism of each muscle. A pound of muscle requires the burning of 7-10 calories each hour. A pound of fat requires the burning of 1-3 calories per hour. Muscle burns more fuel than fat. Bigger muscles burn even more fuel than fat. Once again, the environmentalists are WRONG. We want to burn more fuel all day every day.
If we are going to get the results we need in the gym we are going to have to eat well. That means eating to perform. That means eating enough quality, nutrient dense calories to allow us to work with the level of intensity that is required to crank up our metabolism and to build muscle. I recommend using a block system to count macronutrients, rather than counting calories. The Zone diet popularized this method. The CrossFit Training Guide has a concise and very helpful Zone brochure.
Here is what you need to know about using blocks as a means of developing your nutrition plan
A Block: A block is a measure of food. A block uses the quantity of macronutrients as its measure rather than calories.
One block of protein contains 7 grams
One block of carbohydrates contains 9 grams
One block of fat contains 1.5 grams
Macronutrients: All foods are classified as ONE of the 3 macronutrients: protein, carbs, or fats. There are 2 foods that are classified SIMULTANEOUSLY as both a protein and a carb: milk and plain yogurt. I don’t recommend soy to anyone, so I have left it out of this discussion.
A meal: A meal will always contain EQUAL blocks of protein, carbs, and fat. Meals are classified by the number of blocks they contain, e.g. a 1 block meal, 2 block meal, 5 block meal. The number of blocks they contain indicate the quantity of each of the three macronutrient, not their total number. Remember, each meal MUST contain EQUAL blocks of the three macronutrients. A 1 block meal consists of 1 block of protein, 1 block of carbs, and 1 block of fats. A 5 block meal consists of 5 blocks of protein, 5 blocks of carbs, and 5 blocks of fats.
Body Type: The CrossFit Training Guide Nutrition section contains a chart that lists 11 body types by size and sex. Each body type is prescribed a set of block requirements. Regardless of body type eat your prescribed blocks 5 times per day. Those 5 meals will provide the total number of blocks needed. According to the chart a “medium female” female requires 11 blocks. They will consume those 11 blocks by having a 3 block breakfast and lunch, a 1 block snack, a 3 block dinner, and another 1 block snack. Don’t break up the blocks, i.e. don’t change a 3 block lunch and 1 block snack into a 2 block lunch and 2 block snack. Weather one is eating too little food or too much food, neither situation is “eating to perform”. Stick to the prescribed blocks.
Picking a body type: When picking a body type on the chart take an educated stab at it. Make a classification based on one’s frame, not on one’s current weight, i.e. if an individual is small framed but 30 pounds overweight, make the choice based on frame size.
Classifying foods: When classifying a food not included in the foods list, make the classification based on the reason it is being eaten. “Because it tastes good” isn’t a valid reason. If pork sausage is selected as a protein source, then count it only as a protein and do not add its carbs or fat to the meal’s block count. If mustard greens are selected as a source for carbs, then count it only as a carb and do not add its protein or fat to the block count. Don’t over analyze the food selections. Decide for which macronutrient it is being eaten and be done with it.
Good food/bad food: Foods higher on the glycemic index are generally classified as foods to avoid. Foods lower on the glycemic index are generally classified as desirable to put in one’s diet. Here is the metric I use to decide if and how often I should eat it. If it comes from the pasture/orchard/farm without having to be further processed I eat it as often as I’d like. If it is packaged, or it has an ingredient list on it then I minimize its contribution to my daily block intake. If the food is not processed, e.g fresh fruit, veggies, meats, raw dairy, do not worry about where it falls on the glycemic index. Avoid like the plague processed foods that are low fat, fat free, have added sugar, or contain heavy corn syrup. Examples are margarine, low fat salad dressing, most breakfast cereal, and low fat/no fat yogurt.
The beauty of the block system of counting macronutrients is that it accommodates any eating preference. Strict “paleo”, leaf eaters, meat eaters, and vegans can live together harmoniously using the block system. It doesn’t matter what style of diet is preferred or from where blocks are sourced so long as the block count is adhered to and they are eaten over the course of the prescribed 5 meals.
We said 1 block of protein equals 7 grams of protein, 1 block of carbs equals 9 grams of carbs, and 1 block of fat equals 1.5 grams of fat. We also stated that a block of food must contain 1 block of each of the macronutrients. That means, based strictly on the counted macronutrient content, each block of food contains 77.5 calories. A 1 block meal contains 77.5 calories, a 3 block meal contains 232.5 calories, and a 5 block meal contains 387.5 calories. According to the body type chart a medium female requires 11 blocks while an athletic, well-muscled male requires 25. Using the same math the medium female will be consuming 852.5 calories and the athletic male would be consuming 1,937.5 calories. Both would be starving themselves. The block system is used to ensure athletes are getting the required minimum amount of macronutrients needed, based on body type, to perform like a stud in the gym. The food being eating contains macronutrients (and thus calories) other than just those for which they were counted it towards. Take a look at the sample 3 block female menu below.
3 Block Breakfast 3 Block Lunch 3 Block Dinner
½ pita 80 cal 3 oz tuna 108 cal 3 oz turkey 110 cal
1 egg 78 cal 1 tbs mayo 100 cal 1 peach 60 cal
1oz chicken 105 cal 1 slice rye 109 cal 2.5 cups broccoli 135 cal
1 oz ham 27 cal ½ apple 70 cal 1 tsp butter 33 cal
½ apple 70 cal
3 macadamia nuts 60 cal
Total calories: 420 Total calories: 387 Total calories: 338
1 Block Snack 1 Block Snack
1 oz hummus 40 cal 1 cup strawberries 50 cal
½ tomato 16 cal ¼ cup cottage cheese 110 cal
1.5 oz feta 90 cal 3 almonds 21 cal
Total calories: 146 Total calories: 181
When accounting for all the calories, not only the calories from the original macronutrient content, it adds up to 1472 calories as opposed to 852.5. When doing the same exercise with a sample 5 block menu the calorie count goes from 1937.5 to 3409. Using blocks to account for your macronutrients will supply you with plenty of calories.
Take the pokers out of your eyes. Its time to move on to how to establish some healthy eating habits, particularly those that support counting blocks.
Write out a shopping list. Take an accurate inventory of what is in the pantry, refrigerator, and cupboards, decide what foods are needed as opposed to wanted, and make a list. This will promote healthy and more economic choices. In the short term eating well may cost more. Shopping well can offset the increased cost of fresh foods and saves time, both of which offer positive reinforcement to continue establishing healthy eating habits.
Purchase several sets of measuring cups and teaspoons/tablespoons. Measuring food accurately is a requirement. Nothing will stop someone from doing that faster than not having access to the right equipment to do it. I recommend purchasing several sets so that one is not dissuaded from measuring 2 cups of broccoli because the measuring cup is dirty.
Purchase a quality scale that can stay out on the counter – and keep it on the counter! Food must be weighed as often as it needs to be measured. Looking to find a reason to stop measuring food? Put the scale away somewhere out of sight. Food will most certainly stop being measured. Make measuring food easy. Get a nice scale and keep it out! Keep a stack of small paper or plastic plates handy so that food can be placed on them rather directly on the scale. They are typically easier to clean/throw out.
Pick a guilty pleasure with which to end the day. For me, along with my 3rd pot of coffee, when making my final 5 block meal of the day, I have yogurt with protein powder, honey, and nuts. Other times I will build my meal from rice cakes, bananas, peanut butter, honey, and a protein shake. It isn’t ice cream but it takes the edge off.
Pick a day/period of time to have some “bad food” and a cheat meal. Stick to that time, make it a ritual, and don’t deviate from it. For me, Saturday night I allow myself to have some sweets. Then, Sunday morning I cook a healthy breakfast for the family but DO NOT count my blocks. I just eat without worrying about how many block are on my plate. I found that the combination of my Saturday night sweets and Sunday morning breakfast was what I needed to keep me on track the rest of the week. Find something that will work and stick with it.
Don’t make fake desserts. Fake desserts generally taste like an amalgam of sawdust, coconut oil, and play dough. They typically don’t satisfy whatever the craving is and they end up getting consumed in larger quantities than if the real thing was being eaten. Just hold off for a planned cheat meal.
Bread is generally not a great food source for our training goals, but everyone loves the stuff. I recommend going with a rye bread. Rye elicits a lower insulin response than white and wheat bread and contains some good antioxidents. Try to purchase rye bread that is 100% whole grain. Anything else is white bread in disguise. Good luck finding it.
Get into the habit of prepping food. We talk about this every Monday morning. Boil eggs, make muffin tin breakfast sausages, make large vats of chicken soup and freeze in single serve portion sizes, use a crockpot to cook large meals that can provide a few days of left overs, precut and package fruits and veggies. The ideas are endless and promote healthy eating. Use them.
Grab one of the countless “Zone Diet” books, such as Mastering The Zone, available in any public library to replenish your “block menu”. It is extremely helpful to have access to recipes that are designed to be made and served based on blocks.
Conspicuously absent is any mention of cleanses, pills, potions, and special drinks. That stuff is all snake oil and doesn’t work. And fasting is ineffective. Remember our goal is to eat to perform. There is no such thing as fasting to perform.
Join the Recipes Unleashed page on FB. It is open to the public and great source for healthy cooking and food prep ideas. Ask questions during our cool downs and talk to the UNLEASHED. Our community is an excellent resource and incredibly supportive. Don’t try to make the journey toward healthy eating alone.
Thank you for all your hard work and for being so dedicated.
LIVE – GET STRONG – WIN

Centre half Archie Goodall, along with his brother John, was born to a Scottish-born soldier who by the nature of his job was liable to travel around. John was born in London in 1863, and Archie in Belfast the following year, but both spent the majority of their childhoods in Kilmarnock. John developed into a mild-mannered inside-forward, whose career took him from Kilmarnock Athletic to Preston North End (where he finished topscorer in the first season of the Football League) and on to Derby County (where he would play alongside his younger brother). He also won 14 caps for England as, although to all intents in purposes he could be considered Scottish, the rules of international football of the time stipulated him as English. He was also awarded the somewhat parochial, but by no-means inaccurate, title of “best player in the world”.
Meanwhile Archie had developed into a fairly rambunctious footballer in his own right. His career took off prior to the founding of the Football League when he played mainly in the Merseyside area, initially for Liverpool Stanley and St Jude’s, but also before the League was founded for Preston North End, Derby County and Bolton Wanderers. He joined Preston North End in July 1888 and played two games in the forward line alongside his brother for Preston in the League’s first season, scoring on his Football League debut at Wolverhampton Wanderers in September 1888, before joining Aston Villa for £100 in October 1888.
An effective but brief spell as inside-right at Villa, scoring 7 goals in 14 appearances, was followed by over a decade at Derby County whom he joined in September 1889. At Derby he was first employed regularly at centre-half, his stamina and sheer physical presence making him one of the most effective backs in the English game. Described in the local dialect as a “reet ‘un”, he was not averse to “leaning on” his opponents, employing with great effect the good old shoulder charge.
A major influence on Derby’s constant challenge for the top honours, Goodall helped the club to three FA Cup Finals (though both he and brother John missed the 1899 Final through injury), and to runners-up spot in the League in 1896. Prior to the 1898 FA Cup Final against Nottingham Forest he caused uproar as he tried to off-load excess tickets. Although Derby, whose team also included brother John, were heavy favourites, Forest ran out easy 3-1 victors. Four years later when Archie next made an FA Cup Final appearance, Derby were humiliated 6-0 by a Bury team who did not concede a goal throughout the tournament. John and Archie played regularly together at Derby and on several occasions scored goals. The most memorable were an 8-1 defeat of Barnsley in 1897 and in the FA Cup semi-final against Everton on 30th March 1897 – a 2-3 defeat. Possibly Archie’s most important goal was in the 1-0 win over West Bromwich Albion in the Third Round of the FA Cup in 1896.
Archie Goodall’s Irish International career was only able to commence when the English clubs indicated their willingness to release Irish-born players. He was one of the four who were the first “Anglos” to represent Ireland, as Wales were defeated 1-0 in Belfast in March 1899. For the record they were:- Goodall (Derby County), John Taggart (Walsall) Thomas Morrison (Burnley), J. D. Hanna (Royal Artillery Portsmouth). Three weeks later Goodall became the oldest player to score in international football during the Nineteenth Century, the consolation goal in a 9-1 defeat by Scotland in Glasgow on Mar 25th 1899 at the age of 34 years and 279 days.
Goodall remained a regular at centre-half for Ireland until he was almost forty, although his tenth and final cap was won at centre-forward. The opening goal scored by Goodall in a 2-0 win over Wales in March 1903 leaves him as the oldest goalscorer in Ireland’s history at the ripe old age of 38 years and 283 days.
Goodall left Derby County in 1903, where he had been club captain, after 425 games and 52 goals. He joined Plymouth Argyle of the Southern League, he was first choice in the newly professional side but left suddenly in November 1903 after 12 appearances with stories suggesting that he appealed to the FA over the validity of his transfer. In January 1904 he became player-manager of Glossop scoring 14 goals in 30 appearances for The Hillmen. In October 1905 he signed for First Division Wolverhampton Wanderers where he made his final League appearance that December. At the age of 41 years 153 days he is the oldest player ever to feature for Wolves.

It could have been a day resplendent in a revolutionary haze in Thirvananthapuram, but as the hard-line Marxist veteran V.S. Achuthanandan assumed office along with 18 Ministers, the festive spirit was marred by inner-party dissension on the allocation of portfolios. And to top it all, none of the prominent faces of the Left in New Delhi were present. So, for the Left, the day belonged clearly to Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee in Calcutta who stole the show as Tata Sons chief Ratan Tata flew in to commit Rs 1,000-crore investment in the ambitious Rs one-lakh-a-car project.
At his maiden press conference after taking over, Achuthanandan, on the other hand, vowed to punish the different mafia elements, sex racketeers and plunderers of natural wealth. He also announced the waiver of loans availed of by indebted farmers who had committed suicide. He would clear all welfare pension arrears, he said, but in IT all that he promised was 5,000 jobs in one year.
As days go by the comparisons would become starker between the two CPM-led governments in Kerala and West Bengal and between Achuthanandan and Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee. But the Kerala veteran’s greatest constraint would be the factional pulls from within the party. It’s been the first time in the past more than two decades that the Chief Minister has been deprived of the crucial Home portfolio. He has been left only with General Administration and a few insignificant portfolios. His Cabinet sessions would be the most eventful with an array of the rival CPM Ministers holding the plum portfolios of Home, Finance, Education, Health, Industry, IT and Tourism virtually taking him on the minutiae of governance.
Rival camp strongman Kodiyeri Balakrishnan controls Home and Tourism. It’s been reported that the Achuthanandan camp had already shot off its protest letter to the party leadership in New Delhi against the short shrift in the portfolio allocation. His men end up with Fisheries, Law and Labor. But, on its part, the Achuthanandan camp denies having sent any such protest fax.
This was the first time that so many youngsters had turned up for the swearing-in, which was only fitting in the afterglow of the spate of crusades undertaken by Achuthanandan during the past five years and his final act of compelling the CPM politburo to reverse its decision and grant him an Assembly ticket and then to make him the Chief Minister.
Talking of youth, barring three ministers, all the rest are new to the Cabinet. Call it a GenNext Cabinet. The average age of the cabinet ministers is 57 years. The youngest is JD(S)’s Mathew T.Thomas, 42 years, and the oldest is Achuthanandan. The lone woman Minister is CPM leader P.K.Sreemathy, 57, who holds charge of Health and Social Welfare.
Interestingly, voices of dissent had come from the CM supporters and the CPM allies, who have got a foretaste of the CPM style of functioning in the portfolio allocation. None of the leaders of the Left parties in New Delhi was present at the swearing-in as most of them were reportedly in Calcutta to attend the swearing in of Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee.
If coalition governance and running a ministry has to do with responding to aspirations of different sections of society, Achuthananandan would have to go out of the way to win the confidence of different communities. In spite of the Muslim and Christian communities having gravitated towards the Left in the elections, the new Cabinet has just two Muslims in the Cabinet. Christians fare better with four ministers.
Granted that the Left coalition is unlike the Congress-led United Democratic Front in handling different social pressure groups. But this can be countered only by actual performance - so manifestly absent in the past.
Achuthanandan would have to find better ways of utilizing the nearly Rs 30,000 crore NRI deposits in commercial banks, create more IT jobs, spruce up Tourism, lay better infrastructure facilities and at the same time keep the poor in good humor. Outgoing Chief Minister Oommen Chandy tried this, but voters threw him out.
In the case of Achuthanandan, with a hostile faction around, his only option would be to break the conventional confines of the party and appeal directly to the masses. As the Chief Minister he can do this without inviting the party wrath.

Treatment of fresh produce with a Salmonella-targeted bacteriophage cocktail is compatible with chlorine or peracetic acid and more consistently preserves the microbial community on produce.
Moye Z, Rajanna C, Tokman J, Fanelli B, Hasan N, Marek P, Senecal A, Sulakvelidze A.
Journal of Food Safety, 2020
Diets rich in minimally processed foods are associated with numerous health benefits, in part, due to their diverse, natural microbiota. However, antimicrobials, such as chlorine and peracetic acid (PAA), that are used to address food safety concerns may damage the natural microflora of fresh produce. One promising approach for targeting pathogenic bacteria in foods without impacting the normal food microbiota are bacteriophages. In this study, we observed that combinational treatment of conventional antimicrobials (PAA and chlorine) and bacteriophages, specifically the Salmonella-targeted preparation SalmoFresh™, retained the bactericidal effectiveness of individual interventions, and in some cases, achieved substantially increased efficacy. Additionally, the bacterial microbiomes of farm fresh and organic produce were less affected after phage treatment compared to PAA and chlorine. Finally, our study revealed that resistance rates against SalmoFresh™ were relatively minor and unaffected by the stresses introduced after chemical washes and/or bacteriophage treatment.

Homily for the feast of the Most Holy Trinity - Year B - Mt. 28:16-20
Father Daniel Meynen
"Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. And when they saw him they worshiped him; but some doubted. And Jesus came and said to them, 'All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age.' "
"Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. And when they saw him they worshiped him; but some doubted."
On the morning of Easter, the risen Jesus ordered the holy women to whom he had appeared to tell his disciples to meet him in Galilee: "And behold, Jesus met them and said, 'Hail!' And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them, 'Do not be not afraid; go and tell my brethren to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.' " (Mt. 28:9-10) For Jesus, the Resurrection and Galilee are associated with each other: for it is there that his disciples must see that he has resurrected. However, Jesus, who was resurrected at the gates of Jerusalem, should have associated the Resurrection with Judaea, the land of his birth. This leads us to believe that there is in this a Mystery, something new that Jesus wants to reveal to us. This is indeed the case: if Jesus associates the Resurrection with Galilee, it is because he is already thinking of the final Resurrection, that which will take place at the end of time. "I am with you always, to the close of the age."
"And Jesus came and said to them, 'All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.' "
Having arrived at the mountain in Galilee, Jesus wants to teach his disciples of the mission they will have to carry out when their Master has returned to Heaven and when the Holy Spirit will have been sent to them: they must announce the Good News of Salvation to all nations and baptize them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. It is precisely there, in Galilee, that instruction concerning this mission must be given. For, if Galilee announces the return of Christ, then Galilee also announces the full Revelation of God, Trinity of Love and Wisdom. In the present time, it is not possible to "understand" the Most Holy Trinity, for it is a Mystery, that is, a concept which exceeds human intelligence. But, when Christ returns in Glory, the veil will be torn asunder and the communion of Love of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit will be fully revealed, giving all the elect the capacity to "understand" it, not as God understands and knows himself, but insofar as it will be possible for each of the elect to understand God with an understanding of love, a love whose magnitude will depend on each person's personal merits.
Sometimes, certain people do not attach much importance to the concept of the Trinity in God. One readily believes in God, in Jesus, whom one calls Christ. One knows that he died and was resurrected. One also knows the Father, saying without hesitation, "Our Father, who art in heaven... " One also knows that there is a Holy Spirit... But when one tries to gather together all these concepts in one's mind, one gets confused, mixes everything up, and finally abandons the attempt... Is the "Trinity" so important? Yes! It is important, it is in fact very important! The whole of the Gospel of Saint John speaks of almost nothing else aside from the Trinity, and all of the first epistle written by this evangelist is dedicated to providing the reader with a certain "understanding" of the Trinity revealed in his Gospel. If one is content to say "God is love," and "Jesus died and was resurrected", that is not enough. There are other truths which must be our spiritual food: and that of the Divine Trinity is the most important of all.
Thus let us try to shed a little light on all this. Jesus descended from Heaven and came down to the earth: he took flesh of the Virgin Mary. This is the Mystery of the Incarnation. But Jesus did not come here of himself: it was not he who decided that he would come. It was his Father who sent him into the world. So Jesus has a Father with whom he is united with a quite specific bond: that of obedience. Having been sent into the world, Jesus came to carry out the command which his Father had given him. Jesus carried out this command of the Father by revealing to the whole world, but first to his disciples, that he is the Son of God, the Son of He who created the whole universe, and that he came to earth to redeem all men and, through this redemption, invite them to participate in the life of God. This revelation led Jesus to Calvary, because it was for having said that he was the Son of God that Jesus was condemned to death. The mission his Father had entrusted to him was thus fulfilled. Jesus could then enter into the Glory of his Father, not as God (for, as God, he is in Glory for all eternity), but rather as Man: so he rose from the dead. Lastly, in order that his body might be fully glorified, Jesus ascended into Heaven, forty days after his Resurrection. But that is not all. For, at that time, it was still only the man in himself that was glorified in God - that is, only the human nature that had been assumed by the Son of God. Thus, it was still necessary for this glorification, which God wanted for man, to be partaken by all who would believe this to be possible. This is the reason why the Holy Spirit was poured forth upon the earth on Pentecost. But the Holy Spirit also did
not come of himself: he was sent by the Father and the Son. He was sent by the Father, for it is the Father who is the Principle of the entire Divine Trinity: he is the first person, the one who commands within the Divine Trinity. And the Holy Spirit was also sent by the Son, jointly with the Father, for the Holy Spirit did not come to earth to fulfill a different mission, but rather to carry on the mission of Jesus, Son of God.
What should we learn from all this? Obedience! Jesus came to carry out the command of his Father; the Holy Spirit was sent to perpetuate this command and this mission. The disciples of Christ are always invited to obedience! "Teach them to observe all that I have commanded you." The Trinity invites us to obedience, and obedience leads us back to the Trinity. Each Sunday, the Church, in the name of Jesus Christ, invites us to participate together in the worship of God: each Sunday, the Christian must give thanks to God in the form and in the amount that the Church imposes upon him, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. He who was baptized in the name of the Trinity cannot be content with praying to God in his heart, he must also express his faith and his obedience to God by taking part in the celebration of the Eucharist, in which the Work of Obedience of the Son of God, who died and rose again for our sins, is made present again.
May the Most Blessed Virgin Mary, perfect model of obedience to God, help us to live ever more in the contemplation of God, who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit!

Strategic analysis originated in the late 1960's. At that time, large companies have become complex, which combine the issue of diverse products and published in many commodity markets. However, growth has been going on not in all markets, and some of them even were not promising. This discrepancy arose because of differences in the degree of saturation of demand, changing economic, political and social conditions, increasing competition and rapid technology refresh. Strategic analysis was designed to help companies take a fresh look at the environment and identify opportunities for business development separately. Strategic analysis diversified the company was named portfolio analiza.Edinitsey strategic (portfolio) analysis is a "strategic zone management" ().
Each characterized by a certain type of demand, as well as specific technology. As soon as a replacement of one technology comes another problem of the relation of technology becomes a strategic choice of the firm. During the strategic analysis firm estimates prospects of a course of action. The purpose of the analysis is the alignment of business strategies and the allocation of financial resources between the business divisions of the company. Strategic (portfolio analysis), in general, carried out as follows: All activities of the company (product range) are divided into strategic business unit and determined the relative competitiveness individual business units and the development prospects of the relevant markets. Data collection and analysis in this case is made with respect to the attractiveness of the industry, competitive position, opportunities and threats, resources, and skills.
Next, we construct and analyze the portfolio matrix (matrix of strategic ) and defined desired business portfolio, the desired competitive position. A strategy of each business units and business units with similar strategies are combined into homogeneous groups. Management estimates the strategies of all departments in terms of their compliance with corporate strategy, balancing income and resources, the needs of each unit, using the matrix of portfolio analysis. In this case, the matrix analysis of the portfolio of businesses by themselves are not a tool for decision making. They only show the status of portfolio of businesses, which must be taken into account when making management decisions. Among the matrices for strategic planning should, first of all, to allocate such as the matrix of bcg, McKinsey matrix, the matrix of the adl, the matrix Shell Ansoff matrix and three-dimensional matrix of Abel. All these models are widely used in companies in strategic environmental analysis, but the effectiveness of the analysis, its relevance, with the help of one or a matrix depends on the strategic situation in which the business is located. Usually, the companies' strategic analysis is based on a number of strategic components. Renowned expert in the field Igor Ansoff Strategic Management identifies four strategic components of portfolio analysis – it is a vector of growth that defines the scope and direction of the future scope of the enterprise, competitive advantage of the company, the synergies and strategic flexibility of the portfolio of activities.

With the amazing sunshine weather we are having at the moment, there is no excuse not to spark up the BBQ and with BBQs being a fantastic flexible cooking option for people with food intolerance’s, you have every excuse to dust down the BBQ and heat up some coals.
Living with multiple food intolerance’s can sometimes be a drag, with people asking questions about why you cant eat what they do, trying to not inconvenience others and if throwing a party ensuring everyone enjoys foods on offer (including you). Well great news is that BBQs are a fantastic way to keep everyone happy as they are so flexible.
Here are my top tips for barbecuing with food intolerance’s:
- Gluten Free Sausages – you don’t need a bun, tastes great with salads
- Chicken Satay – made with fantastic Satay Sauce Recipe
- Gluten Free Burger – home made and value for money, tasty and healthy too
- Lime Pickle
- Salads, salads and more salads….
- Need something crispy try some plain nachos or lightly salted kettle chips
- Home made guacamole and houmous are great for dipping.
I love having a house full of my friends, sharing food and fun times. Summer time BBqs make it really easy to entertain lots of your friends.

The two tabbies just brought in a moth from the back yard and are now pursuing it through the hallways. A few minutes ago, Sheba, the deaf white cat, stood on the tiptoes of all four paws, and chased her tail -- first clockwise, and then counterclockwise.
I'm tempted to join Sheba. My clients, apparently sensing that I'd like to spend my evenings writing fiction (trying to fix the story that got savaged in the workshop at Potlatch this past weekend) are deluging me with interesting work.
Other aspects of my life have been similarly active.
My mother has decided she wants to go into a continuing care community with her friends in Florida instead of the one she had planned to move into out here in Seattle. It makes sense. If she carries through on this, I'll be flying back East three or four times a year to visit. I realized that having her settle in Florida (rather than out here, near me) would make it easier for me to relocate to a warmer climate, which I'd like to do in a few years.
As some of you know, Zorg and I have been hammering out a separation agreement for the past six months. He signed it last week, and I signed today, realizing as I did that this was, essentially "it." In Washington state, the separation contract is the major legal event, going into great detail about division of property and setting forth various agreements. The dissolution of marriage paperwork, filed subsequently, is comparatively short and straightforward.
We've managed to get through things in a civilized fashion. To our friends, who have been supportive and diplomatic through it all: Thank you!
In the midst of all this, I flew down to the Bay Area last week for the Potlatch 18 science fiction convention. Each convention has its own personality, and Potlatch's is "unstructured." There was only one panel track, with very light programming, but lots of spontaneous get-togethers called Algonquins that get posted a few hours in advance on the bulletin board at registration. I missed the chance to go to the computer museum to see the Babbage machine in action, but got a small group to go to Lunatic Fringe (belly dancing supplies) and took the introductory jewelry-making class taught by Elise Matthiessen. The class was extraordinarily good (earrings and pendant in one hour!) and I discovered the craft is much more my style than knitting or sewing. Bead stores, here I come!
Potlatch is, of course, a literary convention. I was on a panel about Good Reads, talking about books that included Octavia Butler's Fledgling and Robert Charles Wilson's Spin. And I surived my first short-story critique -- discouraging but extremely useful.
The people at Potlatch were fascinating. It was difficult to get to anything scheduled in a timely fashion because I kept getting distracted by introductions and conversations. There were also some wonderful meals at nearby restaurants. Chelokababi's chicken with sour cherries (Albaloo polo) was the best dish of the weekend, though the dim sum at The Mayflower in Milpitas was the most entertaining meal. One member of our party used an iPhone app with pictures of dim sum (Yum Yum Dim Sum) to get us some arcane and amazing dishes.

I've got to say, I never expected to see C+C MUSIC FACTORY making news here in 2017. But I'm SO GLAD to talk about them again. A guy named Taoufik Moalla was driving in Saint-Laurent, Quebec, Canada last month. And C+C's massive hit from 1990, "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)", came on the radio. And because Taoufik is only human, he started singing along. LOUDLY.
Then he saw a siren behind him. Some cops pulled him over because they saw him SCREAMING and apparently they thought maybe he was in danger. But even though he wasn't, they STILL gave him a $118 ticket for screaming in his car. That charge is certainly a thing that makes me go hmmm.
Taoufik says he's not entirely sure that singing or screaming in your car is illegal, so he's planning to contest the ticket once he gets a court date.
Enjoy the Video....but watch your volume....you might get a ticket! HA HA

How Has Covid-19 Changed ATN?
As we have dealt with this virus over the past few weeks, it seems like everything has changed. As individuals we have had to drastically change our lives and dealings with people. Companies and their employees have either been deemed "essential" or "non-essential" by government officials and their lives are much different based on the designation they received. Some estimates have up to 20% of Americans losing their jobs. Churches have been forced to conduct business and services online. The "at risk" population is being asked to isolate themselves even more than anyone else.
I am in no way complaining about any of this. I am completely on board with people who are trying to save lives and doing the best they can to get our country through this crisis. My point is simply that things have changed...For everyone.
Things have changed for All Things New as well. Here are a few things that have changed:
- Our kids are staying inside the gate almost exclusively. They did take a trip to Raymond and Gina's land recently, but other than that we are trying to keep them inside as much as possible.
- We cannot even contemplate a trip back down to Haiti to see our kids.
- We have told each of our employees except for 2 house moms, Gina and Lener to stay at home. The 2 house moms are staying at the orphanage 24/7 and taking care of the kids.
- We had our first coder graduate the training program on at the beginning of April! This was a huge success for us, but we have not been able to followup with it and look for jobs for him yet because of the virus.
- Schools in Haiti have closed. After missing almost the entire first 4 months of school this year because of manifestations, school started in the middle of January. In the middle of March, schools were shut down again. At this point, I do not know how the 2019-2020 school is anything but a missed opportunity.
- The Gourde (Haitian currency) continues to drop at a mind blowing pace.
- With people not being allowed to sell good on the street and many markets closing, food continues to raise in price.
- In addition to a rise in prices across the board, most Haitians are making less money than ever, and that is a crazy phrase to even type. A country full of people who were living below the poverty line of $2/day are now making even less.
- The President has a planned press conference and many people think he is going to reopen the country.
- Many of the social distancing practices and other things like wearing masks, staying inside, etc. are not being followed in Haiti. While only around 60 cases of the virus are confirmed, there are almost 1000 suspected and Haiti is still a few weeks behind America in terms of when cases were first detected.
The world is different. Some things have made us think and contemplate what "normal" means and how that term may change in the near future. Other things we are just waiting to be able to do again. I for one cannot wait to get back down to Haiti, hug our kids, visit my family in LaGrange, get our coding program started, go to a restaurant, take my wife out on a date, have a night away from my kids (no offense to my kids), and many many other things that I could list.
I have listened to at least parts of 4 different sermons from yesterday, and 3 of those 4 focused on "making a new normal" when everything ends. As I write this, I would have to agree. There will be a new normal, and it is up to us to allow this new "normal" to be better than ever before. To allow Jesus to shape what normal looks like rather than our job, family, etc. In a sea of change and when things seem really difficult, we have a chance to come out of this closer to Jesus than ever before.

In the preceding context we have the infinitely tender and beautiful words: 'Zion hath said, The Lord hath forsaken me. Can a woman forget her sucking child? ... yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.' There is more than a mother's love in the Father's heart. But wonderful in their revelation of God, and mighty to strengthen, calm, and comfort, as these transcendent words are, those of my text, which follow them, do not fall beneath their loftiness. They are a singularly bold metaphor, drawn from the strange and half-savage custom, which lingers still among sailors and others, of having beloved names or other tokens of affection and remembrance indelibly inscribed on parts of the body. Sometimes worshippers had the marks of the god thus set on their flesh; here God writes on His hands the name of the city of His worshippers. And it is not its name only, but its very likeness that He stamps there, that He may ever look on it, as those who love bear with them a picture of one dear face. The prophecy goes on: 'Thy walls are continually before Me,' but in the prophet's time the walls were in ruins, and yet they are present to the divine mind.
I. Now, the first thought suggested by these great words is that here we have set forth for our strength and peace a divine remembrance, tender as -- yea, more tender than -- a mother's.
When Israel came out of Egypt, the Passover was instituted as 'a memorial unto all generations,' or, as the same idea is otherwise expressed, 'it shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine hand.' Here God represents Himself as doing for Israel what He had bid Israel do for Him. They were, as it were, to write the supreme act of deliverance in the Exodus upon their hands, that it might never be forgotten. He writes Zion on His hands for the same purpose.
Now, of course, the text does not primarily refer to individuals, but to the community, whether Zion is understood, as the prophet understood the name, to be ancient Israel, or as the Christian Church. But the recognition of that fact should not be allowed to rob us of the preciousness of this text in its bearing on the individual. For God remembers the community, not as an abstraction or a generalised expression, but as the aggregate of all the individuals composing it. We lose sight of the particulars when we generalise. We cannot see the trees for the wood. We think of 'the Church,' and do not think of the thousands of men and women who make it up. We cannot discern the separate stars in the galaxy. But God's eye resolves what to us is a nebula, and to Him every single glittering point of light hangs rounded and separate in the heaven. Therefore this assurance of our text is to be taken by every single soul that loves God, and trusts Him through Jesus Christ, as belonging to it, as though there were not another creature on earth but itself.
'The sun whose beams most glorious are,
Its light floods the world, yet seems to go straight into the eyeball of every man that looks at it. And such is the divine love and remembrance. There is no jostling nor confusion in the wide space of the heart of God. They that go before shall not hinder them that come after. The hungry crowd sat down in companies on the green grass, and the first fifty, no doubt, were envied by the last of the hundred fifties that made up the five thousand, and wondered whether the five loaves and the two small fishes could go round, but the last fed full as did the first. The great promise of our text belongs to me and thee, and therefore belongs to us all.
That remembrance which each man may take for himself -- and we are poor Christians if we do not live in its light -- is infinitely tender. The echo of the music of the previous words still haunts the verse, and the remembrance promised in it is touched with more than a mother's love. 'I am poor and needy,' says the Psalmist, 'yet the Lord thinketh upon me.' He might have said, 'I am poor and needy, therefore the Lord thinketh upon me.' That remembrance is in full activity when things are darkest with us. Israel said, 'My Lord hath forgotten me,' because at the point of view taken in the second half of Isaiah, it was captive in a far-off land. You and I sometimes are brought into circumstances in which we are ready to think 'God has, somehow or other, left me, has forgotten me.' Never! never! However mirk the night, however apparently solitary the way, however mysterious and insoluble the difficulties of our position, let us fall back on this, that the captive Israel was remembered by God, and let us be sure that no circumstances of our lives are so dark or mysterious as to warrant the faintest shadow of suspicion creeping over the brightness of our confidence in this great promise. His divine remembrance of each of His servants is certain.
But do not let us forget that it was a very sinful Zion that God thus remembered. It was because the nation had transgressed that they were captives, but their very captivity was a proof that they were not forgotten. The loving divine remembrance had to smite in order to prove that it was active. Let us neither be puzzled by our sorrows nor made less confident when we think of our sins. For there is no sin that is strong enough to chill the divine love, or to erase us from the divine remembrance. 'Captive Israel! captive because sinful, I have graven thee on the palms of My hands.'
II. A second thought here is that the divine remembrance guides the divine action.
The palm of the hand is the seat of strength, the instrument of work; and so, if Zion's name is written there, that means not only remembrance, but remembrance which is at the helm, as it were, which is moulding and directing all the work that is done by the hand that bears the name inscribed upon it. The thought is identical with the one which is suggested by part of the High Priest's official dress, although there the thought has a different application. He bore the names of the twelve tribes graven upon his shoulder, the seat of power, and upon his breastplate that lay above the heart, the home of love. God holds out the mighty Hand which works all things, and says to His children: 'Look, you are graven there' -- at the very fountain-head, as it were, of the divine activity. Which, being turned into plain English, is just this, that for His Church as a whole, He does move amidst the affairs of nations. You remember the grand words of one of the Psalms, -- 'He reproved kings for their sakes, saying, Touch not Mine anointed, and do My prophets no harm.' It is no fanatical reading of the history of earthly politics and kingdoms, if we recognise that one of the most prominent reasons for the divine activities in moulding the kingdoms, setting up and casting down, is the advancement of the kingdom of heaven and the building of the City of God. 'I have graven thee on the palms of My hands' -- and when the hands go to work, it is for the Zion whose likeness they bear.
But the same truth applies to us individually. 'All things work together'; they would not do so, unless there was one dominant Will which turned the chaos into a cosmos. 'All things work,' that is very plain. The tremendous activities round us both in Nature and in history are clear to us all. But if all things and events are co-operant, working into each other, and for one end, like the wheels of a well- constructed engine, then there must be an Engineer, and they work together because He is directing them. Thus, because my name is graven on the palms of the mighty Hand that doeth all things, therefore 'all things work together for my good.' If we could but carry that quiet conviction into all the mysteries, as they sometimes seem to be, of our daily lives, and interpret everything in the light of that great thought, how different all our days would be! How far above the petty anxieties and cares and troubles that gnaw away so much of our strength and joy; how serene, peaceful, lofty, submissive, would be our lives, and how in the darkest darkness there would be a great light, not only of hope for a distant future, but of confident assurance for the present. 'I have graven thee on the palms of My hands ' -- do Thou, then, as Thou wilt with me.
III. A last thought here is that the divine remembrance works all things, to realise a great ideal end, as yet unreached.
'Thy walls are continually before Me.' When this prophecy was uttered the Israelites were in captivity, and the city was a wilderness, 'the holy and beautiful House' -- as this very book says -- 'where the fathers praised Thee was burned with fire,' the walls were broken down, rubbish and solitude were there. Yet on the palms of God's hands were inscribed the walls which were nowhere else! They were 'before Him,' though Jerusalem was a ruin. What does that mean? It means that that divine remembrance sees 'things that are not, as though they were.' In the midst of the imperfect reality of the present condition of the Church as a whole, and of us, its actual components, it sees the ideal, the perfect vision of the perfect future, and 'all the wonder that shall be.' Zion may be desolate, but 'before Him' stands what will one day stand on the earth before all men, 'the new Jerusalem, coming down from heaven,' having walls great and high, and its foundations garnished with all manner of precious stones. 'Thy walls are before Me,' though the ruins are there before men.
So, brethren, the most radiant optimism is the only fitting attitude for Christian people in looking into the future, either of the Church as a whole, or of themselves as individual members of it. God's hand is working for Zion and for me. It is guided by love that does not lose the individual in the mass, nor ever forgets any of its children, and it works towards the attainment of unattained perfection. 'This Man' does not 'begin to build and' prove 'not able to finish.'
So let us be sure that, if only we keep ourselves in the love, and continue in the grace of God, He will not slack nor stay His hand on which Zion is graven, until it has 'perfected that which concerneth us,' and fulfilled to each of us that 'which He has spoken to us of.'
I said at the beginning of these remarks that God did what He bids us do. God bids us do what He does. His name should be on our hands; that is to say, memory of Him, love of Him, regard to Him, confidence in Him should mould and guide all our activity, and the aim that we shall be builded up for a habitation of God through the Spirit should be the conscious aim of our lives, as it is the aim which He has in view in all His dealings with us. Our names on His hand; His name on our hands; so shall we be blessed.

As we continue the June meeting of the USCCB (where they will discuss and implement norms on how to best address the latest round of the abuse crisis in the Church), there are a lot of different emotions Catholics are feeling.
There will also be a lot of different suggestions for ways the laity can help contribute to the discussion. The chief among these may be the hardest thing for Christians to do, and that is prayer.
Prayer Can Be Hard
While the Christian should always be a man of prayer, Christ understands prayer can be difficult. Especially when you have to pray for someone corrupt or who you just don’t like. Several times He warns us in the Scriptures that if we only pray for those we like and agree with, we are no better than the pagans.
The true mark of a Christian is praying for somebody you don’t like. Indeed, the true mark of a Christian is praying for somebody who doesn’t deserve your time.
I know there are some who will think this offends pious sensibilities, but it must be said: there is a feeling, potentially widespread, that our leaders have gotten things so wrong they are not worthy of prayer. We can act like this sentiment doesn’t exist, but we’re fooling ourselves. We are blinding ourselves to reality for the sake of our comforts. Sometimes we might even be putting up that display because deep down we suspect that claim might be right. If we think that, we are wrong. It is not an option to not pray.
So if we must pray, how do we pray for those who annoy us, or for those who have done wrong?
What Prayer is Not
At this point, we must address a certain objection. When one points to this reality above, it is often said we must first accuse ourselves before we recognize the guilt of others. This is a misreading of the words of our Lord. Our Lord was indeed worried about hypocrisy, but he did not demand perfection in realizing the errors of others. Rather, he pointed out that the standard by which we judge, we shall be judged by. As Christians, we are required to discern. Whether we have lived our life perfectly or not, we can and must still recognize the faults of others.
We might be able to explain or mitigate their culpability, but there has been a wrong, and we must realize it. If we do not realize this, our prayer life is not honest. Too often we hear the cliché of “thoughts and prayers” mocked, and I suspect it is for this reason. Praying becomes a cliché for the believer. We say we will pray because it’s the nice thing to do, but we don’t want to dig too deeply when we pray, because we don’t want to make someone uncomfortable. Most importantly, we don’t want to make ourselves uncomfortable.
Recognizing our leaders are capable of wrong, but still making a conscious decision to accept them as successors of the Apostles isn’t easy, but we are required to do it. Any call to prayer that is focused on painting an alternative reality must be dismissed with the utmost of prejudice.
Why Pray for Others?
The first thing we should always pray for, when it comes to others, is their salvation. While it might sound weird praying every night that the Pope and Bishops make it to heaven, that’s something we have to stop thinking of as weird.
All men, lay and clerics, pew sitter to pope, are in need of salvation. All men, until their dying breath, can reject God. All men, of whatever their rank, will be forced to give an account to God for all that they have done. Even a man as wise and holy as St. Ambrose recognized he could not withstand Christ’s judgement, hence his appeal to the fountain of mercy. So, when you pray for that individual, pray that they be spared the fear of facing their judge. Pray that they may be pushed by the Spirit, at every
possible moment, towards the fountain of mercy.
Furthermore, when you pray, be real about why you pray. Don’t just pray as a pious sentiment. Is someone arrogant? Then pray that they be delivered from arrogance. Reflect on times in the past when you were arrogant, and the trouble it often got you in. Pray that they be spared from that trouble. Every human being, even the greatest of saint, has sinful tendencies and impulses that, left to them, they will find ruin. If you have a good idea what those impulses are, pray that person is delivered from them.
If you aren’t sure if that individual has those problems, ask God still that they be protected from those vices in the future. This is when accusing yourself can have some value. The reason we accuse ourselves is not to avoid praying for others. We accuse ourselves because we know the pain those sins can cause, because we have experienced them on a personal level, and we wish the target of our prayers would be spared that misery.
Pray For the Church
First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life, godly and respectful in every way.
This is what St. Paul writes to his disciple Timothy in the final stage of his life. When we pray for those in authority, we not only pray for them, but that the Church may have a “quiet and peaceable life” in relation to them. If leaders do wrong, then we pray that they may save the Church further embarrassment and shame.
The Church cannot live a quiet and peaceable life under the specter of the present crisis. When we pray, we pray that God may open the eyes of those in authority and cause them to see how their actions are harming the Church. Few men are so wicked and impious as to will the Church harm. When confronted with that harm on a personal level, we pray they see this, repent, and amend their life.
Pray that God Acts When They Do Not
When one reads the prayers of the Old Testament, one finds that their prayer life ran the gamut of emotions. They prayed that the God would “scatter the proud in their conceit” as the Magnificat tells us. The Psalmist prays that those who do evil against the Lord be confounded so they can be defeated. While one hates to see the Church brought to low esteem on their account, sometimes we have to accept that the proud must be scattered.
We have the promise of Christ that the gates of hell will not prevail, and that, no matter what, the Church will remain. Her Magisterium will remain intact. Her sacraments will remain. The Spirit does not guarantee that each individual cleric and leader will come along for the ride. The Spirit does not guarantee a pope or bishop will not be brought low and humbled for their mistakes. This is something one cannot wish on another, but if they do not do what is right, eventually God will humble them, as a way to help make them realize that they must turn to him.
We should pray without ceasing that such a day does not come. Yet when it does (and it may indeed be here), we pray that the individual listens, and that the Church be protected as much as possible during that process of humbling. Sometimes that damage is inevitable, yet we trust God will limit it to the greatest extent. Finally, we pray that if the leader in question cannot or will not provide for the common good, then we pray that God will bring someone to the Church who will.
Never Cease Praying
If any of these admonitions regarding prayer make someone feel uncomfortable, that’s the point. Prayer is not supposed to be comfortable. It is a deeply personal affair that requires being as realistic as one can be, because the stakes could not be higher: immortal souls are on the line, and the ability of the Church to spread the Gospel hinges on the ability of the Church to pray. While that can make us tremble, we should also look at it as a blessing: God has chosen to include us in such an important matter.
High as the stakes are, God has chosen you, in this moment in time, to pray, and perhaps that prayer will change the course of human events. So when you see the next news story that angers you, and you wonder if all this prayer stuff matters, reflect on what prayer truly is, and see that it does.

producing lemon, in 12 months. Also, my soil has a lot of clay. As a result, I used to water them 25 hours at a time, twice a week. But now, I only water
