When you're chronically ill, you want to make sure that you're not reinfecting yourself, while also reducing the chances of getting bacteria over and over.
The mouth has a lot of bacteria in it. Some of it is good and some of it is bad.
When you're chronically ill, bad bacteria can cause further harm. This is why it is important to know when you should replace your toothbrush to reduce the chances of becoming sicker than you are.
Replacing Toothbrushes and the RulesThe rules of toothbrush replacement state that everyone should replace their toothbrush once every three months. This will reduce the amount of bacteria that is found on the toothbrush, while giving the person a clean slate to work on.
Those that have sicknesses should replace their toothbrush if they've got something that is contagious and they can reinfect themselves with. Those suffering from strep throat or serious colds, or even the flu can do this.
Chronically ill people that brush their teeth often may want to replace their toothbrushes a bit more often than the three-month mark. This will reduce the amount of bacteria that they're putting back into their systems. This can help the person reduce the chances of getting sick with something, while helping their immune systems get stronger.
Always Get Your Dental CleaningsCall us today to schedule an appointment to come out and have your teeth cleaned. One of the best ways to reduce the bacteria and build up in the mouth is to have regular cleanings every six months.
Those that are chronically ill may have to visit a bit more frequently than others, but it can be worth it to help your health and wellness. Call us today to set up a time to come in and provide the cleaning and exam you need.
If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment, please call us at (818) 748-9998 today. | <urn:uuid:7688d3c5-ce39-445d-9763-03354b8228e8> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.smileburbank.com/p/BLOG-41217-2017.10.10-How-Often-You-Need-to-Replace-Your-Toothbrush-When-Chronically-Ill-p.asp | 2020-09-26T09:17:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400238038.76/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926071311-20200926101311-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.972677 | 392 |

Use of Noise and Music in The Tempest
Many times throughout The Tempest, Shakespeare would couple his use of a bare stage with music and other various theatrical noises in order to create a deeper connection with his audience, whether they are reading the script, or watching the play being performed by a cast of actors. It is said that music is one of the defining elements to any production. With the right music and noises, the same exact scene can quickly turn from a happy scene, to one of complete horror. It all depends on the music that accompanies the actions being displayed. Music can also intensify the emotions or actions that we read or see in a book or movie. In The Tempest, Ariel, the mystical spirit summoned by Prospero, and his fellow spirits provide some eerie and wondrous musical sounds that play a part in making the emotion of any scene. Painting pictures with their voices and controlling the outcome of what is happening in the play are both good examples of how the spirits voices are a vital part to Shakespeare’s work. For example, when luring the spellbound Ferdinand towards his future wife, Miranda, Ariel and his fellow sprites caress the shipwrecked prince with harmonious notes which captivate him and usher him towards Miranda. If they would have had harsh voices full of contempt and anger, then Ferdinand would not have followed them. In contrast to Ferdinand hearing Ariel’s delightful melodies, Sebastian, Alonso, Antonio, and Gonzalo receive a very different message. “Alonso: What harmony is this? My good friends, hark! Gonzalo: Marvellous sweet music!
Enter Prospero above, invisible. Enter several strange Shapes, bringing in a banquet; they dance about it with gentle actions of salutation; and, inviting the King, & c. to eat, they depart” (Shakespeare Scene 3)
When the four men attempt to feast on a luxurious banquet Prospero has designed for them, claps of thunder and lightning consume the stage and noises cry...

BEYOND OUR KEN
Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone has vigorously defended the Metropolitan police for the killing of an innocent young Brazilian, and attacked the jury in the Health and Safety case brought against them, for returning a guilty verdict; he called it disastrous. Two months previously he – with full media coverage – had attacked the RMT trade union for holding London Underground strikes in defence of its members’ rights. It does not seem coincidental that juries and trade unions are organs of ‘civil society’ rare in that they have real power. This is why they barely get a mention in its now dominant neoliberal version, something put on a pedestal in the attack on the state as a possible source of wealth redistribution and social justice. This version of ‘civil society’ with its public-private partnerships, charities, faith schools, precisely precludes autonomous organs with the power to be both oppositional and effective. It is in this kind of selectivity, that the Bolshevik characteristics of neoliberalism and its New Labour version are apparent. Within it many ex-Bolsheviks with a new faith regained their confidence in espousing both the virtue and inevitability of global capitalism. It is a bitter irony that Mayor Livingstone who nailed this phenomena with his joke that New Labour, in its early days, was the ‘Millbank Tendency’, should now be playing the neoliberal Bolshevik himself with these attacks on top of his increasingly loud London Olympics fetish.1
The bitterness and sorrow is amplified in my case, being old enough for a London Transport Freedom Pass in a few months time, and to have lived through the days of the old Greater London Council when, for a brief period of the early 1980s, until the defeat of the miners strike, London summers were full of free music in the parks and decent prices on public transport. It felt for a while as though the global capitalist offensive from the mid-70s had been suspended. Ultra leftists thought Livingstone must be a tosser simply because he was an elected party politician. But he spoke his mind and didn’t take things lying down. Most of all, and this is really an age thing, he was admired because he was one of very few voices to speak out against British militarism in the north of Ireland. Unless you’d actually, been on the London march for Bobby Sands, let alone gone to Belfast with Troops Out, it is hard to describe the hatred in the eyes of the London’s “honest coppers” (as Ken describes the killers of Jean Charles de Menezes) at that time. That hatred became standard during the miner’s strike, but for any elected party politician to say that negotiation with the IRA was wise and necessary at that time was to really stick your neck out.
That’s as far as the history, or even the character of Livingstone himself goes, what matters is that a real politician with a history – at least till recently could stand his ground with hecklers (unlike Mr Blair or Mr Brown for example), and therefore that much more dangerous, should now be so signed up to New Labour’s “core values”. That he has stood out on a limb in support of the Palestinian people for example against a politically vengeful Zionism, opposed the invasion of Iraq when it mattered, loses its power when he then stands up for a domestic police force that acts with impunity, the only defence against which is a jury system he has attacked.
To trace his personal trajectory is not in itself important, explanations only matter in taking on board that such an adept politician with such a history should now be such a menace. A conspiracy theorist might argue that the Met have ‘got something’ on Ken, but fact is, he did not have to say anything after the Health and Safety verdict. The notion of “sell-out”, and ‘all politicians are sell-outs’, does not help. That ‘All power corrupts’ is banal and fatalistic – what matters is how power is delegated, recallable, accountable, and its scope clearly delineated – but in the case here it’s true that the Mayor does have a lot of power and is now looking for a third term against feeble opponents. Power in this situation may well corrupt. But none of this I believe accounts for the attacks he has made on juries and trade unions.
When he was first elected as Mayor, and even this is now history, it was in defiance of the New Bolsheviks who wanted their candidate (poor Frank Dobson, fucked over inside out) because Ken was not just radical on ‘foreign affairs’ but had directly attacked Gordon Brown’s initially monetarist economic policy. Since then as the Mayor of the world’s leading centre of various sectors of finance capital, he has accommodated himself to what has remained New Labour’s default neoliberalism. It may even be in the news clippings that he has spoken of the financial ‘community’. It is a globalized urban parochialism that he plays. It may have been that BlairBrown simply swallowed their pride, realized our Ken was a vote winner and taken him back on board that started the change, but the Londonitis and its euphemized but necessary dependence on the world of global finance was already there. It may be, going further back that this too was inherent in the politics of the old GLC, strong on identity politics, but avoiding the intensely class nature of the city.
It is however the Olympic Games for 2012, the bid and its success that have really flipped the Mayor. I have heard from intelligent, political astute, and sympathetic comrades the most convoluted explanations for his support of the bid. For example, that he supported it only because he knew it would lose, but that in the process he would gain some national money for London infrastructure. In which case, Ken must have been sleeping. In addition to smearing opponents and victims, another great New Labour expertise is in the selling of good intentions. We had a taste of it ourselves, the New Bolsheviks letting rip, the domestic selling of the Games was Stalinist in its relentless scale aided by some post-Iraq French-bashing.
But that is to give credence to such a convoluted rationale. The Olympics was perfect for London as the greatest-city-in-the-world, that fetishized version of the place as presented by Ken. It is a classless world, a special version of the urban as a virtue-in-itself which has turned multi-racial multiculturalism, created over 50 years by the London multi-racial working class, into a commodity. A commodity sold with vigour during the bid for the Games. It is a commodity version in which heavily weighted racial discrimination by the same Met police’s Stop and Search does not exist, and of which Jean Charles de Menezes was, in Ken’s eyes, not a member.
East London has already experienced ‘regeneration’ and the class privileging it involves. The Olympic Games will be mark II as has been well documented. It is neoliberal Bolshevism at its purest, top-down imposed planning, construction and destruction. The expenditure it involves is costing not “The Arts” as such but walk-in projects for the poor from Tottenham to the Roman Road, manifestations of civil society that The Mayor cannot claim credit for and control of.
Nothing, but nothing must be allowed to get in the way of the 2012 Olympics as a spectacular global success of televisual sport. And certainly not trade unionist tube drivers and staff. Ken has spoken. If Bob Crow (leader of the RMT union involved) thinks he is going to mess about the Olympic Games with these silly strikes, he’s got another thing coming. He then went on to do a caricature version of Bob Crow speaking, a double caricature. What he said was how New Labour’s Bolsheviks like to imagine militant trade union thinking and talking; they are dinosaurs speaking an obscurantist language from absurd rules books simply for the sake of making privileged trouble. How he said it was in the caricature voice one expects of consensus satirists, archaic, irredeemably white, working class East London. Ken, like me, speaks London lower middle class, mine North, his South of the river. It felt an outrage coming from him, such a caricature of the very different voice.
Mayor Livingstone has been for many years, an opponent of the use of PFIs on the London Underground and fought New Labour, and specifically Gordon Brown, on this issue for many years. The onstage embrace between the two at this years Labour Party Conference was a classic for those believing that all professional politicians are inherently hypocritical. What an irony it could be said then, that he should be attacking the union in such a hateful manner for striking in defence of its members who were in line to be shafted by the contractual process of the PFI following the bankruptcy of Metronet.2 The union undeerstood that Livingstone’s promises were not realistic. Whether they were given in good faith or not is irrelevant, and this is in itself intolerable to New Labour Bolsheviks and psychically to Ken the leftist. His promises could only cover the Metronet receivership period and would not apply to whatever succeeded Metronet.3
This time it’s the turn of juries, their realism also intolerable. Somewhere in the judicial system there was enough concern if not about justice, then about the sheer level of incompetence of the Metropolitan Police which lead to shooting dead –seven dum dum bullets chrissake – ‘the wrong guy’. We still don’t know the full horror of it, still haven’t heard from the other passengers sat in the stationary tube train at Stockwell on which Jean Charles was about to read his free paper, the Metro. But at the very least, this trial, Health and Safety laws being seriously applied for once (not dismissed glibly as (‘red tape’), revealed certain real things: the Met’s incompetence; its stop-at-nothing determination to deny responsibility via both smear, re-writing of events, and special pleading; that the victim, if he had been a suicide bomber, had time to ‘press the button’ when it was obviously about to come on top; and was then shot the seven times when under a restraint that made it impossible for him to press any button. This, a jury of ‘ordinary Londoners’ well understood.
Mayor Livingstone and others have made much of the context, that there had been terrible bombings just recently in London, and what looked like an attempted repeat the day before. This is true, those 7/7 bombings were real, real dead people, mangled bodies, and still people now, putting together use of the limbs that they still have. It should be said that many leftist commentators at the time were far too quick to slide over these realities, too impatient to say, however true, that it was because of the invasion of Iraq. Too glib, however true, in saying that hundreds times more had been killed or maimed in Iraq itself, since saying such a thing can hardly make the pain and suffering of those thousands of Iraqis any more real, not if the pain and suffering of London’s maimed survivors could not be taken on board.
It was a nervy time, but there were, and are, other contexts. A series of repressive measures from New Labour governments have been constant, and followed those of previous Conservative governments. These have been aimed in skewed fashion at “terrorism” in marked contrast say to Spain, ones which give the police more and more powers to detain; at the immigrant poor; at demonstrators against injustices and stupidities; and against the non-immigrant poor of this country. What has been consistent – lick-arse up, and kick-arse down – is the strategy if isolating and enemy, and on this Ken has previous. In the lead-up to May Day 2001 he urged Londoners not to go4; this in addition to a heavy media campaign with leaks from the Met aimed at frightening people from going. On top of the already existent tactic of “Rule 60” New Labour’s faithful Observer talked of specialist firearms teams being brought in; The Evening Standard displayed Wanted Posters; and a ‘senior officer’ saying he thought armoured vehicles inappropriate, as if they might have been considered appropriate. The aim of this media + Ken campaign was to scare off many people who would have liked to celebrate May Day as an occasion to reject capital’s monopolization of reality; who did not want have to be corralled for hours on end under an edict, get a criminal record, let alone face armed police. The result, that only the ‘really committed’, the ‘hard core’ turned up, which conformed the analysis of those – including the Mayor – who had worked to ensure that this was exactly what would happen.5
This tactic has become a strategy for New Labour to such an extent that it, and the mainstream media now talk of a civil liberties “lobby” as if any concern about such liberties were restricted to marginalized cranks or “the chattering classes”. And yet fear is not unreasonable in the context of police impunity. A series of deaths in custody (police and prison) – usually of black people of London’s real multi-racial world, has taken place. Harry Stanley, a white Hackney man was shot dead, bullets in the back from the police. None of these deaths have resulted in sanctions against anyone involved. Jury verdicts which have assigned responsibility, or demanded answers to unanswered questions in a variety of courts, have been routinely sidelined or overturned. These are the juries who with Ken’s sleight-of-hand cease to be the Londoners that “honest coppers” are protecting, just as striking London Underground workers cease also to be “Londoners.” Londoners are people who the Mayor says are Londoners, like those two ‘honest coppers’ who fired the fatal shots. It is more sleight of hand, no one has questioned their honesty, but it’s the seven dum-dum bullets into the head of a man who had already had the time to detonate the imaginary bomb, that people question. It was at such a moment that the accumulated sense of impunity – nothing will happen to me regardless – allowed such awfulness. A moment too when, on the question of honesty, the Mayor might have asked why the original dishonesty about who had been shot, and then the smearing of the victim during the hearing. Speculation about traces of cocaine, which indicate a fantasy notion of a “London” without it. How does he think his cutting-edge London works?!
Worst of all in the Mayor’s Radio 4 “Today” interview was his remark that “At the end of the day, mistakes are always going to happen in wars or situations like this.” It brooks no argument, this “At the end of the day”. You can say what you like, see things the way you want, but “at the end of the day,” this is reality. This allied to the smugness of it, on the lines of Donald Rumsfeld’s version of ‘shit happens’ when talking of the post-invasion horrors of Iraq. In consequence it is one more technique used to sidestep any question of responsibility in the neoliberal world, while it demands citizen responsibility as exchange value for citizen rights.
We are of course lucky to live here. For a whole variety of reasons both shameful and honourable we are lucky to live in London as opposed to many, many other places in the world, but they are all historical reasons. Civil liberties and trade union rights are not set in stone. And now they have been a little further undermined by a politician in many ways much better than others, and perhaps all the more dangerous for it. A Ken who has created a fictitious London, the one made into a brand for the Olympic Games. The police who killed Jean Charles also live in another world, secure from censure and so cut off that they could not understand that this real live Londoner, with all the quick-witted logistics this requires, saw that Brixton tube station was closed, thought nothing of it, and jumped on a bus in the hope that Stockwell, having the Northern as well as the Victoria line, might be open; interpreted a normal logistical decision as suspicious. One can be sure that when the Olympics Organising Committee sized up London they were well shepherded on London’s Underground on which rare the tannoy announcement “Services on all lines are running normally” is just waiting for a pat-on-the-back.

3 Something similar – and the ‘road to hell’ comes to mind – is described by Mark Saunders in Mute magazine 12/09/07 about those London Olympics. “A common feature of regeneration schemes is verbal promises given by people who are clearly unable to deliver those promises.” An epithet for the success of the Olympics bid might be the ex-munitions worker quoted by David Widgery in “Some Lives”. “That’s the trouble with us. We cockneys think we’re so tough but we get taken for a ride because we want to believe.”

Mel Gibson is a polarizing figure in Hollywood. On one hand, you’ve got Braveheart Mel, world-renown actor and Scotland’s favorite son, and on the other, piss drunk “Jews are responsible for all the wars in this world” Mel.
Every rose has its thorns, and 61-year old Mel Gibson is no different.
Effectively blackballed from Hollywood for a decade after a tape of him talking reckless during a DUI arrest went viral, the fatwa on Gibson was lifted during 2016, in lock-step with the release and critical acclaim of Hacksaw Ridge, the Oscar-winning WWII epic he directed about Spiderman (Andrew Garfield, not Tobey Maguire) fighting bad guys using only Band-Aids.
Jokes aside, the film is based on the real-life exploits of Desmond T Doss, the only contentious objector to receive the Medal of Honor during World War II. Epic stuff, and the perfect vehicle for Mel Gibson’s re-introduction to Hollywood.
In recognition of Mel Gibson’s return from exile, let’s look at his top 5 grossing films of all-time.
5. Ransom (1996) – $309 Million
Gibson plays a self-made millionaire whose son is kidnapped and held for ransom. The kidnappers demand $2 million, which, spoiler alert: they don’t get. Don’t steal from Mel Gibson.
4. Lethal Weapon 3 (1992) – $322 Million
Mel is back as Martin Riggs in the third installment of Lethal Weapon. This action comedy isn’t a paradigm shifter, but it is better than Lethal Weapon 4.
3. What Women Want (2000) – $374 Million
Gibson plays an ad exec who can read women’s minds in this fantasy romance comedy, arguably a less ridiculous plot than Mel’s real-life story arc as a flawed genius Jew-hating drunk entertainment tycoon with nine children and his own private island.
2. Signs (2002) – $408 Million
Mel plays a preacher who starts seeing spooky things in his cornfield. It’s a good thing Gibson delivered a memorable performance, because Signs was the last good movie M Night Shymalan ever directed.
1. The Passion of the Christ (2004) – $612 Million
Mel Gibson’s piece de resistance; a two-hour snuff film about the series of unfortunate events that was the last 12 hours of Jesus’ life. Gibson doubled down on the Bible on this one, personally financing the film’s production and distribution while netting himself somewhere in the neighborhood of $500 million.
The fact that Hacksaw Ridge, a Mel Gibson-directed movie, won two Oscars in 2016 (albeit for film editing and sound mixing) is proof positive that second chances do exist in Hollywood.
We’re in an era where a new scandal seems to break daily; uncharted waters, it would seem. But we’ve been here before. People have been misbehaving forever; society’s tether to the internet and insatiable appetite for celebrity have just resulted in sensory overload, disorienting us. But we’ve seen how the scandal cycle plays out. Sometimes you don’t bounce back. Jared from Subway’s endorsing days are over. But, pending the severity of your crime and the magnitude of your talent, you can get a do-over. Just look at Mel Gibson. | <urn:uuid:a838e750-bd76-4fc3-ab5f-fc416da0b678> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.theversed.com/84123/inside-wacky-world-mel-gibson/ | 2020-09-26T08:02:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400238038.76/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926071311-20200926101311-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.922769 | 739 |
It feels so great to be back to my lovely Budapest. I was checking out programs in the city, when I've found the Gozsdu Fashion Night event on Thursday. It's an open event without any entry fees and it takes place in the heart of the Jewish district, Gozsdu is very well known for the party mood and wide range of top restaurants. Read on my favorite places in the district HERE! This time besides the culinary experience, you could have enjoyed a great fashion event as well, where Hungarian talents presented their summer collections: Artz Modell, Hajnalka Tórizs Head Couture, Missq Fashion and Orovica, some of these names might sound familiar to you, since they are on the market for many years now.
Hajnalka Tórizs Head Couture
I've just discovered these fabulous hats recently. It's a huge trend wearing hats as accessories, think of weddings or other elegant summer parties. I was falling in love with these unique designs, very creative and sophisticated indeed, I'm sure we will hear about Hajnalka Tórizs in the future. | <urn:uuid:b154c3be-14a8-4d1c-88f0-f66524eed077> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.uandstyle.com/i-love-budapest/fashion-night-in-the-jewish-district-budapest | 2020-09-26T08:04:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400238038.76/warc/CC-MAIN-20200926071311-20200926101311-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.958411 | 235 |

Veterans & Alzheimer’s: What's The Link? What Resources Are Available? Thomas Edes, MD & Alex Chiu, PhD
For Veterans Day, our Alzheimer’s Talk focused on the Alzheimer’s risks that veterans face, the Department of Veterans Affairs research working to understand this connection, and the great VA care and services available to veterans living with Alzheimer’s, their care partners and their families. Some quick facts:
- Nearly half of America’s veterans are 65 or older, compared to just 15% of the general population, so veterans face above-average risk for Alzheimer’s.
- Veterans over age 75 are the fastest-growing segment of veterans. VA estimates that more than 750,000 older veterans have Alzheimer’s and other dementias—and that the number of its enrollees with Alzheimer’s grew 166% from 2004 to 2014.

Two VA experts joined our moderator, Shawn Taylor, president of our VeteransAgainstAlzheimer’s network, to discuss the Alzheimer’s research and the resources available to the veteran community. Thomas Edes, MD, is Director of Comprehensive Geriatrics & Palliative Care at the Department of Veterans Affairs. Alex Chiu, PhD, is a neurobiologist in the Veterans Health Administration Office of Research & Development, managing research in neurodegenerative diseases.
Dr. Edes noted that seeking a diagnosis for suspected Alzheimer’s or dementia is an important first step. The condition may not actually be dementia. And some dementias have reversible causes, such as vitamin B12 deficiency. In addition, many things can be done to slow cognitive decline: exercise, diet, sleep, intellectual stimulation, stress management, and addressing hearing loss to maintain social connectedness. If a veteran’s brain function seems to be declining, it is important to come in for care, particularly after a sudden change, which is likely to be a medical emergency.
To receive a diagnosis, start with your VA primary care provider. He or she can work with a specialist if needed. The earlier the diagnosis, the better. In early-stage Alzheimer’s, decisional capacity is still present, so the person living with the condition can still communicate what’s important to them, how they want decisions made about their care, and what decisions to put in writing so others can follow them later. Such early discussions make later decisions easier for family members.
As moderator Shawn Taylor observed, “A diagnosis of Alzheimer’s is not the end of the world. It is life-shattering, but you have time to do the necessary things to be involved and have a voice in your future, to communicate with your family before things go further.”
VA Services for Veterans
“We want people to have a sense of optimism,” said Dr. Edes. “There’s a lot the veteran with dementia can still do for themselves—and a lot the VA can do for the veteran and the caregiver.”
Dr. Edes described a comprehensive range of VA services for veterans who have chronic, disabling conditions such as Alzheimer’s:
- Home-Based Primary Care: As veterans living with Alzheimer’s lose the ability to drive, VA’s home-based primary care offers a multi-disciplinary team for medical, mental health and functional challenges: physicians, nurses, rehabilitation therapists, dieticians and mental health specialists. They will help manage chronic conditions, like diabetes and high blood pressure, that contribute to cognitive decline. Home alteration services (wheelchair ramps, bathtub grab-bars) are also available, to help veterans stay at home longer. And a social worker can connect veterans with local services, such as home health aides and adult day healthcare.
- Adult Day Healthcare: Available at all VA medical centers, this resource can be a bright spot for veterans living with Alzheimer’s. Interacting with fellow veterans at these locations can have positive effects on mood and help maintain cognitive and language skills.
- Compensation & Pension Examinations: As veterans with Alzheimer’s begin to lose some functions, their VA social worker can help them learn if other benefits are available to them.
VA Resources for Family Care Partners
- Respite Services: To allow family care partners breaks to tend to their own needs, VA offers in-home or inpatient respite services, including a home health aides and adult day healthcare.
- Caregiver Support Programs: These include education, training and emotional support.
- Medical Foster Home: For veterans without a family care partner who do not want to go to a nursing home, this program identifies someone locally who is willing to take in the veteran and become their care partner, providing 24-hour supervision. VA will train the care partner, check in to ensure the arrangement works, and provide home-based primary care.
VA Research: What We Know About Veterans & Alzheimer’s
“VA research is focused on advancing veterans’ care—if it doesn’t help veterans, VA does not pursue it,” said Dr. Chiu. “VA is very committed to advancing research in this area.”
On the link between Alzheimer’s and traumatic brain injury (TBI), so common in the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, Dr. Chiu says science doesn’t have an easy answer, but there is a connection. A study last year showed mixed results, but it focused on veterans from the Vietnam era, before soldiers had protective armor. Vietnam-era veterans who survived TBIs generally had milder brain injuries. Another study looked at the electronic health records of all veterans enrolled in the VHA—so it includes veterans from more recent conflicts. It found a stronger link between TBI and Alzheimer’s/dementia and that the risk seems related to severity of the brain injury.
Of potential connections between Alzheimer’s and depression or PTSD, Dr. Chiu says the linkage between Alzheimer’s and PTSD is better documented. One VA study found an increased Alzheimer’s risk among veterans suffering with PTSD. However, those with PTSD are more likely to be withdrawn socially, have difficulty sleeping, and not seek help—each of which may contribute to dementia. So more research is needed.

The 5" portable television Deltone TV-55 is in excellent condition. The television does work. The telescopic antenna is straight and in excellent working condition. The television has a 5" quickstart monochrome picture tube.
This listing includes the original box, owners manual, DC car battery adaptor, AC power adaptor 1278-KN, DSMT 75 Matching Antenna Adaptor, and television.
The television along with its knobs and antennae are in excellent working condition. The television powers up and the screen comes on. We have not tested it to any certain channel or with the adaptors for the car or with the matching antenna adaptor. However, they appear to be in good working condition and practically unused. Please note that sometimes the little matching antennae adaptors can go out but are very inexpensive and easy to replace per a television reference. We did not test it with 8 "D" cell batteries. However, the battery compartment does not appear to have ever been used as can be seen in the pictures. The screen is very clean. The picture is very crisp and the brightness, contrast, and v-hold can be adjusted.
There are no breaks, chips, or repair places on the television. There is a little rattle sound inside that is most likely a little piece of the plastic trim edge from the folding foot. The folding foot works great - including its folding and unfolding. The television shows very little vintage wear and rub marks - mainly on the bright smooth plastic trim. The box does show some wear as can be seen in the pictures. Also, in the pictures, the box appears to have a water stain. However, the interior pieces in the box have no signs of water and the box is very sturdy and not falling apart. In addition, since it is only showing on two sides, it may be that the box was partly placed into a dew or damp area and the cardboard simply got a little wet.
The possibilities for putting this gorgeous little television to work include camping, RV, off the grid applications, or to simply have as a simple add-on television for an extra bedroom. It would be perfect for locations where cable TV was not available or not desired. In addition, this would make a great vintage electronics to add to the display case or collectibles shelf. Also, since it can be battery operated, it would be great for emergency situations.
The collector will appreciate this handsome portable Deltone television for its excellent condition and many components already included.
The serial number is W01000316.

***As is common with pre-owned items they could have little marks that are not so easily detectable - we refer to these as vintage wear and rub marks. While I do personally inspect each item, I can miss small marks that may not show up with a regular inside light. That being said, I try to be very picky and careful to make sure the details are explained truthfully, honestly, and upfront.
***Virtually all pre-owned items have vintage wear and rub marks. This is simply a term that we have coined to point out that because: (1) they are older, (2) most likely they are not in their original plastic, wrapping, or packaging, (3) have been stored, (4) transported, (5) and handled - they are very likely to have little, small, or slight discolorations, marks, places, wear, etc. Hence, this is why we often have longer descriptions. We try very hard to make sure you know what we know.

State Attorneys General Want Whitaker To Recuse Himself From Mueller Probe
RACHEL MARTIN, HOST:
Leading Democrats are calling on President Trump's acting attorney general to do the very thing that may have gotten his predecessor fired. They want Matthew Whitaker to recuse himself from overseeing special counsel Robert Mueller's probe of Russian interference in the U.S. 2016 election and possible collusion from inside the Trump campaign. Whitaker has been a vocal supporter of President Trump's, and he has publicly criticized the Mueller probe. Here's Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer over the weekend talking on CNN's "State Of The Union."
(SOUNDBITE OF TV SHOW, "STATE OF THE UNION")
CHUCK SCHUMER: The appointment of Mr. Whitaker should concern every American. If he stays there, he will create a constitutional crisis by inhibiting Mueller or firing Mueller.
MARTIN: Also calling on Whitaker to recuse himself are 19 state attorneys general led by Maura Healey. She is the attorney general of the state of Massachusetts, and she joins us now on the line. Thanks so much for being with us.
MAURA HEALEY: Good to be with you, Rachel.
MARTIN: What's the argument you and other state attorneys general are making here?
HEALEY: Well, there are all sorts of problems with this appointment, and many of them have been already recounted in the media - legal and constitutional and otherwise. But we are speaking out on a separate point, which is that - as prosecutors. You know, as prosecutors, we are governed by ethical rules that are there to protect the integrity and the impartiality of investigations. Department of Justice has rules. Every prosecutor's office has rules. And Whitaker's conduct is so far over the line that he should recuse himself.
And that's why we're speaking up, because this is not a partisan issue, Rachel. This is a matter of the rule of law and the system that we have in place to ensure that we have an operating rule of law in this country, which is so fundamental to democracy. And if the rule of law means anything, it means that the president can't shut down a criminal investigation by removing and replacing the prosecutor.
MARTIN: Well, a couple of things to follow up on. First, you say that this is not about partisanship, although we should note that all the signatories to this letter are Democrats. So a lot of people are going to see this as a partisan political attack.
HEALEY: Well, I can't control who signed. We welcomed and asked all attorneys general across the country to sign. We were doing this quickly because we wanted to make sure that the voice of a prosecutor's office was heard. We weren't sure what was going to happen in the coming hours or even days. I hope that more will join. I think you see more people speaking up around this country and growing consensus. But when I say this is not a partisan issue, this is not something that should be political. The Department of Justice is there not for the benefit of the president but there for the benefit of the American people. And...
MARTIN: Did you get any responses? I'm sorry to interrupt you. Just for the sake of time, did you get any responses from Republican state attorneys general?
HEALEY: No, we haven't as of yet. But again, my hope is that more will join on because it's just so important. You know, you really need to have an attorney general who can - who the American people can trust and rely on. And with Whitaker's appointment, we clearly don't have that. My...
MARTIN: You say it's about his behavior. What exactly can you point to? Because he is in a tough position of having to prove a negative - persuading you and other critics of the president of what he will not do.
HEALEY: Well, I think he's been quite vocal about his positions on the Mueller investigation from starving its budget to shutting it down. And in our world, that sure sounds like obstruction to just - obstruction of justice to many of us as a matter of prosecutorial ethics, and that's what we are speaking to as prosecutors. There are prosecutorial ethics - rules that are in place, including the department's own rules and regulations, that really prohibit this kind of conduct and certainly prohibit anyone who's made those kinds of statements from serving on an investigation. So that's what we're speaking to as prosecutors. And again, it's really important if you're talking about preserving the integrity of an investigation.
MARTIN: Have you heard any response to your letter?
HEALEY: No, we haven't. But I think what you have seen is a growing consensus out there that the Whitaker appointment is illegal, it's unethical and it undermines the rule of law. And that's why so many people are speaking up. That's why you saw the immediate protests. This is a serious problem. If somebody's been appointed to shut down an investigation of one's self or one's family, that is a serious problem. Nobody's above the rule of law in this country, including the president the United States.
MARTIN: Although we haven't yet heard - we may, but we haven't yet heard whether or not Whitaker has decided to recuse or whether the DOJ ethics department will advise him of that. Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey, thank you so much for your time this morning. We appreciate it.
HEALEY: Thanks for having me.

Season 1 Season Finale (Return of the Feathered Serpent)
MAYAN VILLAGE – NIGHT
May 1519 – Xico
Cortés’ ambassadors meet Moctezuma’s ambassadors in Xico. Moctezuma’s ambassadors had been sent when word was received that Cortés had arrived in Veracruz and brought with them presents. Among the ambassadors, Tlazopilli is accompanied by his two children, Ichtaca and Citlalin. Pedro notices Citlalin immediately. The presents sent by Cortés are sent back to Moctezuma and both parties continue together back to the port of Veracruz. On the journey, Pedro tries to approach Citlalin but she doesn’t speak Mayan and he doesn’t speak Nahuatl and to make things worse, Pedro does not know how to talk to a girl. (conectan con la parte de la pelea)
June 1519 – Veracruz
Cortés receives Moctezuma’s ambassadors and receives numerous gifts including a headdress made with Quetzal feathers. Pedro finds Malinalli and begs her to teach him Nahuatl and asks her about Aztec girls. Malinalli warns him that Aztecs are the enemy but in the end decides to help him when Pedro reminds her that she was born an Aztec girl herself. Pedro tries to talk to Citlalin who finds Pedro charming and amusing.
June 1519 – Tenochtitlan
Tlazopilli and their group return to Moctezuma with the terrifying report of the possible return of Quetzalcoatl. Moctezuma is in fear. He remembers Papantzin’s death dream in which she saw the return of the legend.
Moctezuma is told that all the dreamers he summoned have arrived. Uncertain what to do or believe, he sends for all tribal dreamers from all villages across the empire. From every valley and volcano, the dreamers travel overland and muscled travelers, old, middle aged and very young, come before Moctezuma to tell the dreams they’ve been dreaming about a most mysterious thing: The Future.
The tribal dreamers take their calling to dream for “the people of the earth,” as their serious troth to care for and protect souls. Dreamers led lives without rancor or vengeance, all in order to be lucid messengers between heaven and earth. Thus, one of the holiest prayers one could pray was to ask the highest source of dream vision to be granted an immaculate heart.
Even though Moctezuma has already heard the distant thunder of immense change bearing down upon the Nahua empire, he wants to be told otherwise. He wishes that the world he has put together by feast, conquest and marriage, will never end. But the tribal dreamers cannot support Moctezuma’s fantasy. The dreamers, instead, remain true to the dreams. They tell Moctezuma that they dreamed he and all of Aztlan would fall, great fires would explode throughout the land, huge stones would crash to the earth, blood would run, the soul of the Nahua would suffer greatly.
To this end of preserving his world, Moctezuma does the unconscionable in full knowledge. He orders the slaughter of all the dreamers. He kills every last dreamer who has spoken of his or her dream that the end of the empire is at hand, that a new day is coming and that there will first be a terrible cost. Thus, the red blood of every last gentle, innocent dreamer runs into the ground. (Moctezuma – antes de hoy el futuro estaba escrito)
Citlalin walks out of the city as she is thinking of Pedro. In the dark of the night she hears noises in the forest. She starts running but she is being chased by a creature. It is Xolotl who is after her. She is caught by the creature and as he starts to drag her away, she is able to fight him back with what she learned from Necalli and is able to get away.
July 1519 – Veracruz
Cortés finds out that some of his men want to rebel by stealing a ship and return to Cuba. To set an example to the rest of his men, he punishes them severely by hanging two and cutting the feet off another. He decides to burn their ships to avoid another rebellion attempt to return to Cuba.

Parenthood requires a lot of responsibility and time. Understandably, there will be ups and downs, as well as a vast variety of surprises along the way! Regardless of how many books or how much research someone does on the topic, it’s best learning along the way. Parents will experience a lot of new moments as they guide their children to grow up, from first steps and first words to waving them off to high school. During pregnancy, there is a lot of prenatal care to consider, whereas having young kids will bring about different, exciting life events. The same idea applies to having teens or young adults, as families will experience something different at each stage. There will be days where parents won’t sleep at all, and other days when they will miss the lack of sleep because the kids have left the nest. It’s all part of what it means to be a parent!
During pregnancy, the mother’s health is of utmost importance for the safe delivery of her baby. Pregnancy will bring with it a lot of emotional changes, as a mother’s hormones change and may cause mood swings. Frequent visits to the doctor, prenatal vitamins, exercise and a healthy diet, are all things the mothers must do during pregnancy. During the nine months, there will be many different symptoms. Unfortunately, it includes morning sickness for the mother and even the exciting (and sometimes painful) kicking of the baby later into the pregnancy. Nine months in, there are other 36 weeks pregnant symptoms. At 36 weeks, almost all of the baby’s organs have developed. Mothers will feel some excess pressure in the lower abdominal area as the baby drops towards the belly. At this point, the baby’s due date is very near!
Having young kids
During early parenthood, parents will be concerned with the sleeping, pooping and eating habits of their baby. This is a time when the parents will be changing a lot of diapers, and baby bottles, strollers, and baby toys will overrun the house! There will be a lot of rewarding moments when kids learn to say their first word, learn to walk, and so on. As kids grow and near kindergarten age, they’ll start to expand their vocabulary to the point that they can talk to their parents. Parents will act as teachers for their kids before they enter the school system, teaching them how to go to the bathroom and how to eat on their own.
When it comes to raising happy kids, there are a variety of ways that parents can do this. The first step is that the parents must be happy themselves. It’s natural that the parent’s moods will affect their children. After all, one’s mood tends to affect their surroundings and the people or kids they talk to, and it means that parents can teach kids about relationships through kindness. Parents can help avoid a moody teenager by educating young kids about optimism. Is the glass half full or half empty? Parents can mentor their kids from a young age about looking on the bright side of any situation. Encourage playtime, both as a family and between a child and their friends. All of these factors can help parents raise happy kids. All in all, families should spend time together, laugh together and do activities together.
Teenagers tend to get a bad reputation, especially thanks to Hollywood movies. In movies, teens are often depicted as rebellious groups of kids. However, there are a variety of mistakes parents can make when raising teens. For starters, parents shouldn’t expect the worst. Don’t expect negative things from your teen, as it can lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy. As mentioned at the beginning of the article, no amount of books or research can fully prepare a parent to be a parent. It’s all about learning along the way, and knowing when to intervene. Don’t ignore the big problems in your teen’s life and don’t focus on the small issues. If your teenager is involved with the wrong crowds and taking drugs, do not turn a blind eye. It’s important for parents to find their balance between rules and freedom. Your teenager’s fashion choice, for instance, isn’t the biggest deal in the world. As parents, learn how to raise your teenager one day at a time. Make time for your teen because before parents know it, the kids will be out of the nest.
There will come the point when the child is no longer a child. Rather, the kids are young adults. With high school graduation out of the way, college is around the corner. With this, many young adults are leaving home to live on their school campus. Once they graduate college, they will look for a career, and they too will be starting their own families, thus starting the cycle again. How do parents feel when their kids are grown up? There is a whirlwind of emotions! When kids are grown up, parents will feel nostalgic when walking past their kid’s rooms. Parents will miss the times when their kids were little, when they were scared of thunder and snuck into bed with them. As a parent, you can imagine what the future will be like without kids and remember to live in the present. Parents must make the most of their time with the kids, as the years will go by and they won’t remain a kid forever. Thus, family time is incredibly important.
Time doesn’t wait for anyone. The minutes, days and weeks will turn into years. Thus, it’s important for parents to spend time with their kids and take everything one day at a time. People cannot learn how to be parents in a book. While a book may give you some tips, being a parent means something different for everyone. It depends on a parent’s child, personalities, and so on. As time passes, it’s important for parents to realize that every stage of having children will have its highs and lows. Everything put together is what makes parenthood special. It’s not something any parent should fast forward since kids grow up in the blink of an eye, regardless. | <urn:uuid:e9b4983e-3510-466c-9d8f-74d0007700ab> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://planetawesomekid.com/2018/03/parenting/different-stages-of-parenthood/ | 2020-09-27T15:30:41Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.96603 | 1,269 |

The central region of our Milky Way, the Galactic Bulge, is a rich host of variable high-energy X-ray and gamma-ray sources.
After a short introduction illustrating Integral’s place in ESA’s fleet of astronomy and astrophysics satellites, the movie looks inside the central bulge to reveal these dynamic sources, which include X-ray binary systems with either a black hole or a neutron star, pulsars and remnants of supernova explosions.
A number of these sources only shine brightly for a limited period of time – in some cases, they appear as a sudden bright flash and disappear shortly afterwards, whereas others are more persistent. The effect of this constantly changing environment gives the Galactic Bulge the appearance of a dramatic cosmic light show.
Zooming back out of the Milky Way shows a bird’s eye view of the known gamma and hard X-ray sources in our Milky Way.
The movie concludes with a stunning fly-through of the central part of the Galactic Bulge before returning to our Solar System and the orbit of Integral around Earth.

In my many, many years on the planet (I officially became middle aged over the holidays), I have learnt that new year resolutions are bootless things, fit for nothing except inducing guilt when they remain unresolved on 31 December. The prosecution cites exhibits A and B: The Raqasa's resolves to learn to drive and to achieve proficiency in French, both of which are now entering their second decade on the 'To Do' list. If I dwelt on it too long, no doubt I would weep at the vision I have of myself walking off the mortal coil and wishing the world "Farewell" instead of "Adieu".
|The Raqasa's spiritual guru shows how it's done|
Yeeeaaaahhhh ... wish me luck with this. Meanwhile, I'm off to the third heat of Bellydance Trophies on Sunday and, as usual, I'll be tweeting the action in my customarily difficult-to-follow and not-particularly-informative style.

Dear friends, colleagues and mentors,
Tomorrow (Jun 30th, 2015) will be my last working day at IBM Research – China. When I decided to join CRL in April 2011, I considered this adventure as a world-leading industry PhD program in the most interesting market – China. Instead of continuing my academic career as a regular PhD with my advisor Prof. Per Stenstrom, I was more interested in making real impact in real business world. Four years later, I would say I was so lucky to have enjoyed a fantastic journey with you who not only helped me, inspired me, encouraged me, mentored me, but also become life long friend with me.
Last week I visited IBM Reserach – Almaden, and I saw a saying on the lobby wall: “Science and data to extend human capability”. IBM Research was no doubt a remarkable organization for disruptive innovation in the human history. I am so proud that I could get the chance to work with you on being essential to our society. After my graduation from IBM Research, I will start a new adventure of building cool big data technology in OneAPM, a startup that has many common interest with me. Hope what I learned from CRL could help me become a person that can shape the world to come in some degree.
Please allow me to take the opportunity to thank you all for all your kind support during the years. Life is a long long journey, we will definitely have chance to meet each other again:)
Please find my contact below and wish you all the best in the future! | <urn:uuid:0d84da9e-5130-4200-a9e4-884c59d4d4b8> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.parallellabs.com/2015/06/29/thank-you-from-gc-guancheng-chen/ | 2020-09-27T16:46:24Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.970306 | 323 |

Unlike Chapter 7 bankruptcy that eliminates most debts, Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows you to consolidate your debts, potentially negotiate lower payments, and repay all creditors over a period of three to five years. This plan works well for most filers as long as their financial situation doesn’t change too much during the repayment period. However, job loss happens and can affect the ability to stick to the agreed-upon payment plan when filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy.
Post-Confirmation Chapter 13 Modification
While it’s tempting to panic if you lose your job, especially when it comes as a surprise to you, Chapter 13 lawyers can assist you in working through this situation. As a client of CMC Law, your Chapter 13 bankruptcy lawyer will propose a motion to the bankruptcy court known as post-confirmation Chapter 13 modification. A bankruptcy judge will consider your new circumstances and can decrease the total monthly payment you make to all creditors or implement other adjustments if necessary.
Here are some other situations that may qualify you to seek a post-confirmation Chapter 13 modification:
- Loss of income due to health challenges
- You need to remove a debt that you have paid since your original bankruptcy filing by selling one or more pieces of secured collateral
- An involuntary increase in expenses not due to a debt such as the need to pay for healthcare services
- The claims you originally filed are higher than estimates you have received after a judge approved your Chapter 13 bankruptcy plan
- You need to include a debt that you had prior to filing for bankruptcy but that you did not include in the original petition
After verification of your change in financial circumstances, the most common outcomes are for a bankruptcy judge to lower your monthly payment obligation to creditors and/or extend your total repayment plan.
As with your original Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing, your creditors have the opportunity to request clarification or object to the new plan. Additionally, the bankruptcy court may only approve a temporary adjustment if you expect your financial challenge to resolve in a short time.
Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Might Be More Appropriate
If the loss of your job leaves you with no income whatsoever, you may wish to discuss converting your original Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing to a Chapter 7 with your Chapter 13 bankruptcy attorney. If approved for the Chapter 7, it would eliminate most debts other than child support, lawsuits, alimony, student loans, and past due taxes. Whether you want to consider changing your bankruptcy filing status or not, consulting with a Chapter 13 bankruptcy lawyer from CMC Law is a good idea any time that you experience significant changes in your financial situation.
Considering Filing for Bankruptcy or Need to Adjust an Existing Court Order?
Assisting clients who wish to file Chapter 13 bankruptcy or modify it after the fact is just one of the many legal services we offer at CMC Law. If you find yourself struggling with debt that you know you cannot repay, we invite you to schedule an appointment with us for a free bankruptcy evaluation.
Charles is absolutely a brilliant attorney! He is a critical thinker and determined problem solver. He is very accessible, even via text. If he is in court, his ability to multi-task, you can feel safe and secure in knowing he is handling any issues or concerns. I entrust him with my future, he is a uniquely talented attorney who always challenges himself to achieve the absolute best outcome for his clients.
I was very satisfied with Mr. Clapp services. He is a man of his word and did everything he told me he would. I would highly recommend him.
I came to Mr. Clapp by referral with a complicated case involving both personal and business debts that were out of control. Mr. Clapp evaluated the situation and gave me options that I was not even aware of. He knows his stuff, executed flawlessly, and I have been able to start over. I highly recommend Charles Clapp if you have debt or bankruptcy issues. Listen to his advice, he knows his stuff. I consulted with several other bankruptcy attorneys prior to retaining Mr. Clapp, and they did not have the same breadth of knowledge that Mr. Clapp brought to my case.
I selected Charles Clapp to handle my bankruptcy based on his already positive reviews and I am glad that I did!

A widely used method for mitigating supply chain risk is multi-sourcing — using more than one vendor to supply specific items. But there are significant risks to consider. Not keeping all of your eggs in one supply basket is an appealing strategy to increase supply chain resilience. But it’s not always effective.
Every day, automobiles equipped with increasingly sophisticated autonomous driving technologies are coursing onto the world’s roadways. There is a remarkable amount already known about the capabilities of these technologies, even in the face of unpredictable driving situations. But in addition to the road, these systems must interact with something far more complex: the driver, who is rapidly becoming a part-time passenger in his or her own car.
By Chris Creyts and Nora Weisskopf, SCM class of 2016. In response to the growth of their e-commerce businesses, many retailers are looking for ways to reduce the supply chain costs associated with internet orders. Some retailers are starting to look upstream in their supply chains, and are requesting that manufacturers fulfill orders via drop shipping. The change in delivery practices creates a number of key issues, including the potential for impacting per-unit distribution costs for manufacturers.
Lombard, Illinois USA (June 23, 2016) -- Chris Caplice, executive director of the MIT Center for Transportation and Logistics, will receive the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals' (CSCMP) 2016 Distinguished Service Award. He will be presented with the award during the Opening General Session at CSCMP's Annual Conference in Orlando, Florida on Monday, September 26, 2016.
According to surveys, no matter the age, American drivers see potential benefits in autonomous vehicles, but they want to be sure the technology works. Safety features and the ability to manually intervene with the vehicles' self-driving technology are concerns for potential drivers. AgeLab’s (New England University Transportation Center Director) Joe Coughlin and The Hartford’s Jodi Olshevski discuss findings from their study showing age may matter less than we think in driverless car technology adoption.
By Jarrod Goentzel and Fredrik Eng Larsson. About 90% of world trade is carried by sea, so you might imagine that being able to track the status of ocean shipments accurately and in real time would be a critical goal for companies looking to improve the management of their supply chains. Yet this operational Holy Grail remains elusive, despite advances in information technology.
A Scandinavian courier company, PostNord AB, and supermarket chain, ICA AB, are testing the new service with about 20 households in the Swedish capital, promising that messengers will remove their shoes and unpack online deliveries, even when customers are away. The pioneering service hinges on a new add-on lock, which customers must install on their doors and which messengers can open with their smartphones. Made by Swedish startup Glue AB, the lock allows residents to decide remotely when to allow access to their homes.
Humanitarian Response Lab co-hosts Health and Humanitarian Logistics Conference. The main objective of the conference is to interactively discuss the opportunities and challenges in the sector in an open, neutral platform. Health and humanitarian related topics such as disaster preparedness and response, long-term development and humanitarian aid, and global health delivery are examined from the non-governmental, corporate, governmental, and academic perspectives.
MIT Office of Digital Learning-- The second in a new series of open online courses, part of MIT's MicroMaster’s program in supply chain management, is open for enrollment. The field of supply chain management (SCM) is on the rise. For organizations, the logistics behind moving products from factories and warehouses to storefronts and doorsteps across the globe is critical. For employees, the highly valued skills needed to do the job — data and financial analysis, technological know-how, leadership, and the art of negotiation — provide a tremendous opportunity for career advancement.
Transitioning to an omni-channel supply chain undoubtedly brings many challenges for retailers. However, omni-channel is also a major source of supply chain innovation. The journey involves multiple changes that are forcing companies to rethink the way they design, build, implement, and manage global supply chains, as well as how they relate to key supply chain players.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — While Amazon.com Inc., A.P. Moller Maersk A/S and other big shippers look to the skies to speed up deliveries with drones, a group of Massachusetts Institute of Technology scientists are setting their sights far lower: Underground. Researchers at the new MIT Institute for Data, Systems and Society, along with other MITaffiliated logistic R&D groups, are examining the viability of underground networks of small, autonomous vehicles to deliver goods to businesses in crowded urban centers.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.– High-tech logistics systems have quickened the delivery of goods from manufacturing hubs to big-city markets in recent years. But speeding up the so called last mile, from a local distribution center to a retailer or a customer’s home, has remained a challenge, especially in crowded urban centers.
By Yossi Sheffi. When the Berlin Wall came down on November, 9, 1989, people across the world celebrated its destruction. The Wall was constructed by the communist regime in East Germany to prevent citizens from fleeing to the democratic west. The barrier that blocked the free flow of people and goods became a powerful symbol of oppression. A little more than a quarter century after the fall of the Berlin Wall, international wall building appears to be on the rise again.
What do Class 8 trucks and cell phones have in common? Their end-of-life (EOL) strategies are shaped in large part by each product’s characteristics as well as current market conditions.
That trend was equally clear at the recent Supply Chain Student Research Expo put on by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Global SCALE Network. This annual program brings together more than 100 graduate students from around the world to present the real-world supply chain projects they are working on. It was not unusual to see, for example, a student from Greece and another from India collaborating on an inventory management analysis, or students from Malaysia and China working together on a food and beverage metrics project.
MIT’s Alexis Bateman writes that vertical integration is gaining favor as companies address quality and sustainability, but it also demands a close look at business priorities - Companies have been vertically integrating operations for many years to gain more control over the supply of key materials. Henry Ford’s ownership of rubber plantations and iron ore mines that provided raw materials for automobiles is a classic example.
MIT to create new center at the world’s busiest port in Ningbo, China - The government of Ningbo, China — home of the world’s busiest port — is partnering with the MIT Center for Transportation & Logistics (MIT CTL) to create a global center for supply chain education and research.
Discussions of self-driving vehicles are often accompanied by highly confident predictions: Visions of the future include whole networks of automated cars seamlessly zipping around metropolitan areas, safely and efficiently, with every person inside them a passive, hands-off passenger. On Tuesday at MIT, the U.S. government’s chief auto safety official offered a more restrained view, suggesting that technology could provide important new safeguards for cars, while observing that it is too soon to say precisely what form vehicular automation will eventually take.
The first massive open online course, or “MOOC,” made its way onto the educational scene back in 2008 as a model for delivering learning content online to any person who wants to take a course, with no limit on attendance. These interactive learning spaces have not only eradicated limits on the number of students who can attend a course, they have also helped to create a very scalable and affordable way to deliver all types of education – supply chain executive education included.
“We’re like Rodney Dangerfield—we don’t get no respect.” Professor Yossi Sheffi, a professor of supply chain management at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), chuckled when I asked him why there’s such a shortage in supply chain talent. He, like a number of supply chain professionals I spoke to over the past month, was lamenting the fact that the term supply chain doesn’t do a great job of suggesting the hard, dynamic work involved in running the manufacturing, movement and storage of a product.
By Yossi Sheffi. One of the mysteries of the stock market's decline at the beginning of 2016 is why such a precipitous fall occurred at a time when economies are reaping the benefits of lower energy costs. As oil prices parachuted to depths not seen since the tech crash of the early 2000s, factories, transportation carriers, and consumers pocketed substantial savings on fuel costs. The plunge in oil prices transfers about $1,500 every year from Saudi Arabia, Russia, Venezuela and other oil producers to the pockets of every US driver.
By Yossi Sheffi. The controversy over reshoring has flared up again thanks largely to some research published by the managing consulting firm A. T. Kearney in December 2015. - Reshoring refers to the practice of bringing manufacturing jobs that were previously off-shored to countries such as China back to the United States. Some people argue that this trend has accelerated over recent years and is reviving the nation’s manufacturing might.
The recently published research suggests that these claims are exaggerated, and re-shoring is not the savior it is being made out to be.

When bone is loaded, substrate strain is generated by the external force and this strain induces fluid flow that creates fluid shear stress on bone cells. Our current understanding of load-driven gene regulation of osteoblasts is based primarily on in vitro studies on planer two-dimensional tissue culture substrates. However, differences between a flat layer of cells and cells in 3-dimensional (3D) ECM are being recognized for signal transduction. Proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts are affected by substrate geometry. Here we developed a novel 3D culture system that would mimic physiologically relevant substrate strain as well as strain-induced fluid flow in a 3D porous collagen matrix. The system allowed us to evaluate the responses of osteoblasts in a 3D stress-strain environment similar to a mechanical field to which bone is exposed. Using MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts grown in the 3D collagen matrix with and without hydroxyapatite deposition, we tested the role of strain and the strain-induced fluid flow in the expression of the load-responsive genes such as c-fos, egr1, cox2, osteopontin, and mmp1B involved in transcriptional regulation, osteogenesis, and rearrangement of ECM. Strain-induced fluid flow was visualized with a microspheres ~3 μm in diameter in real time, and three viscoelastic parameters were determined. The results obtained by semi-quantitative PCR, immunoblot assay, enzymatic activity assays for collagenase and gelatinase, and mechanical characterization of collagen matrices supported the dominant role of strain-induced fluid flow in expression of the selected genes one hour after the mechanical treatment.

Have a choice between two loves? Sometimes we choose well. And we frequently end up with regrets that we carry to our graves. I thought about this Saturday because of a woman I met and talked with. Although the specifics of her story are very different from what happened to me, the feelings she described were enough to remind me of where I was four years ago this month. With one guy, she feels the magical connection that most of us want to feel and that a few of us have felt in a very real way. But that relationship had problems. It had great highs, but great lows.
11 Undeniable Signs He’s In Love With You
These days, who really needs a ring? One married, one not. The others joked that in their experience only married women felt there was a true difference between husbands and boyfriends, and it was likely because they were married. Um…okay, if you say so. One of them challenged me to explain how my marriage was different from her long-term relationship. These were my arguments….
He can love you with all his heart and still look at other women. Looking is normal, all mend do it even if they don’t admit it. If he is talking with them that is a huge deal breaker, especially if he hides it from you. There is a difference between Facebook and pornography which is anonymous/ impersonal.
The way he looks at you. He wants to give to you. Real love is about giving, not taking. This is why parents typically love their children more than their children love them. You would think it would be the opposite. From birth through our teenage years and sometimes beyond! When you love someone, you want to give that person everything you have. You want to give by being the best you can, you want to make them happy, to enhance their life, you want to do things for them that will make them happy.
The biggest action that indicates a man loves you is when he gives you all he can. Does He Love Me?

What Is Statutory Rape? ShutterStock Today, I read a comment on one of our older posts that really alarmed me. I have a really good friend, Dave, who is I know what I am going to say is going to raise eyebrows, but I know what it is like to be 13 and going through that phase when you adore someone and want to be close. I lost my virginity when I was 11 to a guy who was our neighbor and was studying for his Masters then. I adored him and though I was scared at first, I never once regretted losing my virginity to him.
It was so loving and emotional and I always dream about that special time I had with him. Secretly, in my heart, I wished my sister would hook up with Dave. Last weekend, I left them alone together as I had a course to attend. When I came back a few days later, I went to her room while she was in the toilet to see if there were any telltale signs of any intimacy.
I looked under the bed and I found a whole heap of used condoms. The numerous condoms would suggest that they must have been at it like rats. I am sure they must have enjoyed it thoroughly. I thought to myself, what better person than Dave to have lost her virginity to.

I played along with him for a bit and he tried to find men for me and for him, as well for sex dates. To my amazement, I felt something different inside of me that instance I laid my eyes at him.
I tried to ignore it. So, we had sex the three of us and later, the boy hung out with me my bf was busy watching TV. Later that evening we went to a massage parlor and then bade goodbye for the night.

Expressions[ edit ] Anthropologists propose three subdivisions of homosexuality: In his study of native cultures pederasty appears typically as a passing stage in which the adolescent is the beloved of an older male, remains as such until he reaches a certain developmental threshold, after which he in turn takes on an adolescent beloved of his own. This model is judged by Gorer as socially viable, i. He adds that in many societies, pederasty has been the main subject of the arts and the main source of tender and elevated emotions.
The younger partner must, in some sense, not be fully mature; this could include young men in their late teens or early twenties.

Can these sex dating sites help me out for a hookup? I assume you’re not looking for a relationship, right? Since you’re checking out this section on ThePornDude, I conclude you got sick of fantasy cybersex, giving yourself a handjob or playing with the clit, right? And you crave to feel some real pussy on your dick or desire a cock inside your vagina in your bed, isn’t it?

What Our Clients Say
Helping With Non-Traditional Tasks
As parents and busy professionals, InSync With You is invaluable to the functioning of our household. We first engaged services to help conquer a growing to-do list of home organization and maintenance projects before our second child arrived. We were immediately impressed with Cathi’s professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail. In addition to typical concierge services like appointment scheduling and errands, Cathi has tackled our non-traditional requests, like selling a vehicle. She’s prompt, trustworthy, and great about follow through. Her established network of quality service vendors saves us hours in research; she’s connected us with a house cleaner, handyman, carpet cleaner, home organizer, and babysitter. Anything we don’t have the time or know-how to do, we call Cathi!
~ Katherine Ye, MD/MBA, and Irving Ye, MD/MBA
InSync with You helped with all the details of a major event for me. Not only did Cathi do all that I needed, she proactively offered some additional ideas that made it even better. I will certainly use her again in the future!
~ Thom Crimans, Managing Partner FranNet MidAmerica
Exceptional Attention to Detail
Cathi is extremely organized with exceptional attention to detail. She is hard working and determined…no mater what – she gets the job done.
~ Tami Cassis, MD Cassis Dermatology & Aesthetics Center
A Great Surprise!
Cathi with InSync with You was a lifesaver for planning my wife’s landmark birthday party. As a busy physician I could not have accomplished the successful “surprise” party with our busy schedules, the complex decisions, venue set up, securing entertainment and managing finances without Cathi’s oversight. Cathi’s services kept me from feeling overwhelmed during the months of planning. On the day of the party I was relaxed knowing the details of the day were well orchestrated. I highly recommend InSync with You for your event planning/personal assistance needs.
~ Thomas Becherer, MD Neurosurgery Associates
InSync with You is definitely a service I would recommend. As busy as our lives get, I don’t know what I would’ve done without you for my Heart Association event and Shawn’s party. Your creativity and flexibility made the evening so easy for me to enjoy—thank you! Life is way too short. Sometimes we just need to ask for that helping hand
~ Tiffany Cardwell, SHRM-CP, PHR, CCP MCM CPAs
Cathi is truly legendary! She takes each project personally as if it were her own family. I’ve had Cathi help me on several different projects, office decluttering and organization, closet organization, and most recently wardrobe elimination and refresh, as well as utilizing her business referral list. Invite Cathi into your life and let her make it better than you knew it could be!
~ Melanie Dutlinger, Texas Roadhouse
Unique Reflection of Our Family
Cathi’s attention to detail, flexibility and drive to find solutions made a big difference for me and my family. Cathi facilitated designing and installing a custom kitchen backsplash. I wanted something unique that was a personal reflection of my family. Cathi found the perfect vendors to make it happen and we could not be happier with the finished product. I highly recommend Cathi to help with any project that you are just having trouble getting started or just do not have the time to devote to yourself. Cathi is fun to work with and will get the job done.

For Fans Of
French writer Victor Hugo once declared, ‘music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent’. Billed as a celebration of earlier works, ‘Lost Verses’ is a statement of sincere intent. Since the bands inception in 2004, The Red Shore has been climbing the heavy metal ladder (metaphorically speaking), along the way creating a strong reputation for themselves.
This nine-track offering carries on from where 2008’s critically acclaimed ‘Unconsecrated’ left off; with the band this time re-visiting their back catalogue. Like giving your car a new paint job, The Red Shore reworks previous songs giving them a completely new feel. It appears someone has turned the dial from heavy to brutal – the riffs are fiercer, the drums are faster and the music is louder. In the words of Triple J’s Andrew Haug, ‘it’s death metal just with a different haircut’.
Opening track ‘The Valentines Day Massacre’ begins with a brief haunting interlude, reminiscent of any Scandinavian black metal release, before unleashing a fast array of vicious vocals and rapid blast beats. The most apparent difference between the newer version and the one found on 2006’s ‘Salvaging What’s Left’ is the predominant death metal guitar riffs. The distortion is high and the tuning is low. Furthermore, the metronome must have taken a beating such is the tempo of the newer adaptations
Fans will appreciate the notable additions of ‘Flesh Couture’, ‘Knives and Wolves’, and ‘Thy Devourer’, which until now had only been played live as opposed to appearing on one of the band’s official releases.
The charm of ‘Lost Verses’ is that it doesn’t merely re-record previous songs by giving it a fresh mastering. Rather, the band makes subtle changes and re-phrasings like that found in the intro of ‘Sink or Swim’.
This is definitely an album to bang your head to.
If a picture paints a thousand words, then music must paint a thousand more. ‘Lost Verses’ honours the bands past, showcasing everything good about The Red Shore whilst simultaneously highlighting why they are destined to become one of Australia’s premier acts (if they are not already).

A Pediatric dental injury at school can occur at any moment and it is crucial to have someone on the school staff to attend to such emergencies. Up to a third of children will suffer a dental injury by the age of 12 so preparation is key. We provide here some suggestions for treating some dental injuries at school.
This is usually a non-painful dental problem and, as a result of that, is very likely to be overlooked. It is a minor fracture of the enamel, which could potentially leave the dentin exposed. Chipping of a tooth doesn’t displace it and there is typically no bleeding as a result; a child will only notice when he or she feels rough, jagged edges on a tooth.
While, ordinarily, a chipped tooth isn’t something to worry much about, it could possibly lead to serious issues when this results in exposure of nerve tissue. Until a child is able to see a dentist, sugar-free chewing gum or orthodontic wax can be placed on the chipped portion. Treatment of a chipped tooth involves the use of a dental filling or crown, depending on the extent of the fracture.
Severe Tooth Fracture
Children can also suffer severe tooth fracture – more serious than chipping – while at school. This type of fracture not only involves the cracking of the outer layers of the tooth, enamel, and dentin but also exposes the pulp, which houses blood vessels and nerve tissues. Unlike in the case of chipping, a serious fracture may loosen or displace the tooth, leading to gum bleeding.
Treatment of severe tooth fracture typically involves splinting of the affected tooth to adjoining teeth in order to prevent it from falling off and to stabilize it for proper healing to take place. A dental professional may then place a sedative dressing on the broken tooth for pain relief. There will usually be a need to reevaluate the tooth about 2-4 weeks later to assess the level of recovery. A root canal procedure may also be unavoidable if there is a great risk of an exposed pulp becoming infected.
In even more severe cases, such as vertical, horizontal or diagonal tooth fractures, affected teeth may be beyond salvaging, probably because they have become too loose. The teeth will have to be extracted and replaced with prosthetics in such instances.
While playing, children can get their teeth knocked out completely as a consequence of unexpected, heavy hit. Knocked-out, or avulsed, a tooth is among the most severe dental emergencies and the effectiveness of the treatment depends significantly on steps taken immediately afterward. This injury should especially be taken more seriously when it affects permanent teeth, as lost primary or baby teeth are usually replaced naturally.
When a child loses a permanent tooth, effort should be made to immediately locate it. Pick the tooth by its crown (the exposed part used for chewing), gently rinse it in clean water or milk and then reinsert it into its socket, probably holding it in place using sterile gauze. If the tooth won’t hold in its socket, you should place it in milk or an emergency solution for this purpose until you are able to take the child to a dentist.
As in the case of severe fracture, splinting is usually done to stabilize the tooth while bone and tissue healing takes place – the splint remains in place for weeks. Children who have completely-formed tooth root may require a root canal procedure as a safeguard against infection. The re-implanted tooth will need to be observed for several years afterward for symptoms of dental problems.

I have three basic nightmare scenarios:
1. Impeachment helps Trump get re-elected. In this scenario, impeachment fails to remove Trump from office (since, after all, the Republican Senate gets the final say), but it succeeds in firing up his base by reinforcing one of his key narratives: his persecution at the hands of the deep state, the crooked media, and other elites. So in November of 2020, swing-state polling stations are awash in MAGA hats, and before you know it we’re in for another four years. Bonus bummer: We have to endure Trump’s declaring vindication when the Senate doesn’t convict.
2. Impeachment leads to a five-year or even nine-year Pence presidency. In this scenario, Trump gets convicted in the Senate. Though unlikely, this isn’t impossible. If the impeachment inquiry yields damning new revelations and Trump is so damaged by the fallout that re-election looks hopeless, a critical mass of Republican Senators who occupy safe seats or aren’t up for immediate re-election might desert him in hopes of maintaining Republican control of the White House.
Mike Pence would then become president and, compared with Trump, might strike swing voters as presidential. (For starters, he isn’t orange and he sometimes finishes his sentences.) In which case he could then be returned to office once or even twice. By and large Pence’s policies would probably be Trumpist, as Trump’s base would have to be mollified in the wake of his Republican-abetted ouster. But Pence would likely abandon Trump’s refreshing if erratically expressed skepticism about military intervention. (Indeed, the GOP’s neocon foreign policy establishment would in this scenario have enthusiastically supported the Dump-Trump-for-Pence movement.) From my ideological perspective, at least, this is pretty much the worst of all worlds.
3. The impeachment process so intensifies America’s political polarization that for years to come, aspiring populist demagogues will have fertile ground to exploit. Of the three nightmare scenarios, this may be the most likely (and, unfortunately, it’s compatible with either of the other two). In fact, some deepening of America’s tribal divide seems pretty much unavoidable as impeachment proceeds.
OK, so those are my three big worries. Do they amount to an argument against impeachment? Not really. How impeachment plays out politically is too unpredictable for me to put huge stock in the first two scenarios, and as for the third: A modest increase in polarization might be a fair price to pay if impeachment did, one way or another, succeed in ushering Trump offstage in favor of a benign successor.
And I guess I can imagine that happening. Let me try.
If the impeachment process is to leave Trump on balance less electable, it needs to move a fair number of voters into the anti-Trump camp (since, after all, you need to more than compensate for the galvanizing effect impeachment will have on his base). I’m far from sure that this scandal, as it stands, will do that. Though I consider the quid pro quo that Trump implicitly offered Ukraine to be a grave betrayal of his constitutional duties, I don’t think the story, so far, has the grassroots narrative power of things like flatout bribery or embezzlement or for that matter such dramatic interventions in elections as email hacking.
But the night is young. I would direct your attention, in particular, to the three appearances of ellipses—presumably indicating excised passages—in the now-famous Ukraine phone call memo
. One of them appears in the Biden part of the discussion—and note that the whistleblower’s own lawyer seems to affirm
the significance of that ellipsis via a retweet.
If the Democrats get ahold of the complete version of that memo (the one that White House lawyers have consigned to the cyber-equivalent of Fort Knox), and it turns out that any of those ellipses conceal something explosive—like, for example, an explicit quid-pro-quo—that could move the needle of public opinion. Not just because of what was excised, but because the fact of such consequential excising would so intensify the air of coverup.
This is just one example—maybe the most promising one, for now—of future developments that could move us into what I consider the sweet spot: so damaging to Trump that re-election gets harder, but not so damaging as to trigger a mutiny among Republican senators that could lead to a Pence presidency.
So cheer up!
OK, that’s enough cheer. Here’s the final thing that worries me:
I haven’t seen many advocates of impeachment lay out scenarios like this, in which impeachment leads to a happy ending. In fact, it seems to me the most full-throated impeachment advocates have been short on scenarios, period. (And attempts on Twitter to elicit such scenarios—attempts by me
, for example, or by noted author and activist Tim Wu
—have yielded little.) Instead of outlining likely consequences of impeachment, these advocates often argue either that impeachment would be constitutionally justified (I agree) or that it’s morally compelled.
And the moral compulsion arguments often assume this form: “Sometimes you just have to stand up for what’s right, whatever the consequences!” Which sounds appealing, until you drill down on the “whatever the consequences” part. I mean, if the consequences included, say, the destruction of the planet, that would give you pause, right?
I’m not saying four more years of Trump is as bad as the destruction of the planet. But it’s up there. So, I’m sorry, I can’t entirely abandon my concern about the actual consequences of impeachment, especially if one of those consequences is more Trump.
All of which bring us to…mindful resistance
! Which, in addition to being the former name of this newsletter, is also a cause I remain devoted to.
You may think I’ve got a funny way of showing it. After all, doesn’t mindfulness mean, for example, not getting bogged down in anxieties and worries?
Yes, kind of. At least, it means being sufficiently aware of the affective layer of my worries—the feeling of worrying—that I’m not unduly influenced by that, and can see clearly which worrisome scenarios are likely enough and momentous enough to be worth focusing on. In other words: it means being aware that I’m a worrier and filtering my worrisome thoughts accordingly. Which, as you can see, I’m trying to do, if with less than complete success.
By the same token, mindfulness can help you be aware—as broadly and objectively aware as possible—of the consequences of your actions. Including the consequences of impeachment.
Needless to say, if you strongly favor impeachment, mindfulness means trying to be aware of feelings that may be driving that. For example: Is there a retributive feeling—Let’s give Trump what he deserves!—so powerful that it could get in the way of assessing whether impeachment will or won’t work to his detriment?
I’m just asking, not accusing. There certainly are people who strongly favor impeachment and are being reflective about it. And as time passes, more and more of them are laying out their arguments in writing (as in this recent piece
by Ezra Klein arguing that, whether or not impeachment drives Trump out of office, it will have other worthwhile consequences).
In general, I’d say that Buddhist ethics has a consequentialist leaning. It emphasizes pursuing humane outcomes through skillful action more than serving moral ideals regardless of the consequences. And mindfulness, when it’s working well, is integral to skillful action. | <urn:uuid:40219a9a-5eae-4705-b54e-32e7f84dfd3f> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://nonzero.org/post/mindful-impeachment | 2020-09-27T16:54:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.951825 | 1,651 |

The coronavirus pandemic has changed our everyday life, but it doesn't need to change who we are. So, in addition to our ongoing coverage of the coronavirus, OnMilwaukee will continue to report on cool, fun, inspiring and strange stories from our city and beyond. Stay safe, stay healthy, stay informed and stay joyful. We're all in this together. #InThisTogetherMKE
If you’ve been reading OnMilwaukee, you know that over the past few weeks we’ve been trying to share as many ways possible to help support local bars, restaurants, breweries and other small businesses during this tough time.
These small businesses include long-running, family-owned Brew City classics that have in some cases survived a World War (or two), the Great Depression, Prohibition, the 1918 flu pandemic, 9/11 and other tests of our collective mettle.
So, as a little reminder, here are some – not all – of those businesses, all of which can, like everyone else, use your help.
"We have been amazed by the outpouring of support from our loyal patrons," says Five O'Clock Steakhouse's Stelio Kalkounos. "This is the greatest challenge the 5 O’ Clock Steakhouse has experienced. Within a few hours, we transformed from an iconic supper club steakhouse into a delivery and carryout business. Whoever survives this economic and emotional turmoil will emerge stronger."
Adds Nite Owl's Chris Roepke, We are trying our best to stay alive."
Because everything seems to be changing so quickly, I encourage you to call ahead to make sure these classics are still open and to check their hours. Calling ahead allows means you can have less face-to-face contact when you stop in to carry out.
Five O’Clock Steakhouse
2416 W. State St., (414) 342-3553
The restaurant is open for carry-out and curbside pickup, as well as for gift card sales. You can call ahead earlier in the day to schedule an evening pickup, too, if you’d like. The restaurant is also selling discounted packaged beer, wine and liquor, as well as Old Fashioned and other cocktail to-go kits.
4156 N. Oakland Ave., Shorewood, (414) 332-7777

Werner "Benji" Benjamin opened this classic deli in 1963 and now there’s a second location, too, at 8683 N. Port Washington Rd. in Fox Point. Benji’s is open for to-go orders, curbside pickup and Door Dash delivery.
Gilles' Frozen Custard
7515 W. Bluemound Rd., (414) 453-4875
(PHOTO: Gilles Frozen Custard)
Milwaukee’s oldest custard stand, open since 1938, is up and running for carryout and via its pickup window. And when I was there the other day, there was still some Jameson custard left.
1319 E. Henry Clay St., Whitefish Bay, (414) 964-3800
Read about the long history of Jack Pandl’s in this Urban Spelunking story and then order some gift cards on the restaurant’s web site and order a sumptuous German pancake (pictured above) for carryout or delivery via Door Dash.

Kopp’s, founded by the Queen of Custard, Elsa Kopp, in 1950, has three locations around the area and is still serving its delicious custard and burgers for carryout.
3131 S. 27th St., (414) 383-1784
(PHOTO: Leon's Frozen Custard)
Not only does Leon’s date to 1942, but its founder Leon Schneider was instrumental in helping many other stands open and survive, including Kopp’s, Kitt's and more.
It is open, as always, for carryout. Nothing comforts quite like custard.
1041 N. Old World 3rd St., (414) 271-3377
Not that you need a reminder about why Mader’s is on this list, you can get the full story in this Urban Spelunking story. Mader’s is open for carryout and is selling gift cards at its website, too.
3146 S. 27th St., (414) 671-2118
(PHOTO: Lori Fredrich)
Mazo’s, which dates to 1934, decided to close, posting on Facebook, "As much as we'd love to do carryout business or curbside pickup, we feel it's still too much to risk. We will announce a re-opening date once it's safe to do so again." But please watch for news of its reopening, at which point it will surely need a hand.
830 E. Layton Ave., (414) 483-2524
(PHOTO: Nite Owl Drive-In)
This airport area drive-in, which began life when current owner Chris Roepke’s dad bought Bob’s Airport Custard and renamed it Roepke’s Airport Custard, which later became the Nite Owl, purveyor of one of the best burgers in town. The stand reopened this week to kick off its 72nd season and if offering carryout. It also sells T-shirts and gift cards.
4629 N. Port Washington Rd., (414) 332-8808
A family-owned butter burger haven since 1936, Solly’s is open for carryout and also has a GoFundMe to help its employees, many of whom have been furloughed as business has dropped.
2414 S. St. Clair St., (414) 481-7530
The James Beard Foundation has named this family-owned Serbian gem an American Classic and who are we to argue. It’s like being invited over to your lovely neighbor’s house (a lovely neighbor that really knows how to cook) for dinner. We featured it last year in this Urban Spelunking story.
2235 N. Farwell Ave., (414) 272-1775
A relative youngster on this list, dating back "only" to 1978 – when it took over the former Rieder’s space – Von Trier (which is really a bar, but also serves food, so I’m including here) is as much a Milwaukee classic as any business. It, too, has launched a GoFundMe fundraiser for its employees. You can find it here.
There are others, too, like Ned’s Pizza, Kitt’s Custard, Conejito’s, Polonez and Maria’s Pizza, to name but a few others. If we want these classics to endure, we must lend a hand, because we’re all #inthistogethermke.
A complete list of restaurants offering carryout is here.

If you need extra financial assistance when buying a house, you may consider using the funds in your 401k. This can be an untapped resource if left unused, but it can also end up putting you further into debt or, in some cases, reducing the size of the mortgage you qualify for. Consider the ways borrowing from a 401k will be counted against you when you look to use the money for a home purchase.
Borrowing from a 401k will count against you when buying a house. Lenders consider 401k loans to be a debt and, even though you are repaying yourself, they will take the debt payment into account when figuring how much you can affor to pay toward a mortgage.
Important Mortgage Calculations
Many lenders use the so-called "28/36" rule to determine how much mortgage you can afford. According to this rule, you can afford the lower of either 28 percent of your gross income or 36 percent of your gross income less other debts and obligations. If you have no debt, you will qualify for a higher mortgage than if you have high debts to pay each month.
This is important to remember if you consider borrowing from your 401k to make a down payment on the house. The 401k loan is considered a debt and, even though you are repaying yourself, the monthly payment toward this debt will be deducted from how much you can theoretically afford to pay toward a mortgage. The 401k loan is reported on your credit report and your mortgage application, so the lender will have this information when considering your mortgage limit.
Understanding Employer Regulations
Beyond the implications on your mortgage, borrowing from your 401k will also be limited by your employer's regulations. Each plan sponsor can determine if and how much an employee can borrow from a 401k. Some plan sponsors will not permit borrowing at all, but many do – check with your plan administrator. There may be a cap on how much you can borrow. If you use this money for a down payment on your home, you are essentially placing zero percent down, as both the down payment and the mortgages are loans. Therefore, your interest rate may be higher on your mortgage even if the one enforced by your plan sponsor is low.
The Cash Out Alternative
One alternative to taking a 401k loan is to cash out your 401k for a housing down payment. If you do so, you can avoid the standard 10 percent penalty on an early withdrawal. This Internal Revenue Service regulation is permitted only in rare cases, such as first home down payments and hardship withdrawals, and it can offer great financial incentive to cash out of your 401k at a young age. Here, the money is not counted as a loan. Therefore, the mortgage lender would not count this sum as debt in your mortgage application, and you may be able to secure a higher mortgage.
Comparing Loan vs. Cashing Out
While cashing out may result in a higher mortgage and lower interest payments, there is one financial drawback with this option: You may not be able to replace the money in your 401k. Each year, there is an annual maximum on 401k contributions. Once you take this money out, you cannot add it back in if your contributions will be over the annual maximum. Therefore, you could be permanently reducing the funds in your 401k with this option, which will significantly reduce the money you can save and earn for retirement.

This story is by Ava Mauriello and was part of our 2017 Fall Writing Contest. You can find all the writing contest stories here.
As I jumped into the lyftline I slipped my hand into my purse to make sure I brought a can of pepper spray. I lugged a backpack full of snacks, water, and poster board to create signs for the cause. Tonight was a huge rally in Chicago in honor of the tragedy in Charlottesville. The first thing that I planned on doing when I arrived was giving Nathan, my wonderful boyfriend, water and snacks; he’s been protesting all day.
To me, Nathan is one of the most inspiring people that I have ever met. Very few people demonstrate a true compassion for humanity the way that Nathan does. When I first moved to Chicago he drove me all over the city, taking me to interviews so that I wouldn’t have to go alone in a new city. Not only would he drive me around, he would also go the extra mile and print out resumes for me. He was one of the few people who encouraged me to pursue my dreams. I never had a fan until I met Nathan. Indulging in my art softened his heart. The causes that he worked towards drained him at times, but watching my short films, or reading my poetry gave him an escape and an outlet to love freely.
Nathan’s mission in life has always been to make a difference by leading organizations that defend the disenfranchised. Running organizations is only a small part of his rich, multifaceted life – he also owned a small business. After developing an app that helps people overcome addictions, he has been able to maintain a flexible schedule. Addictions have played a large role as to why he is so passionate about contributing to causes. Addictions caused the sudden end to the lives of his grandfather and even his father.
“I know that the oppression that we’ve faced is the real reason they are dead,” he would explain to me. “Addictions are just the symptom of a bigger problem.”
I cried when he told me about the horrors that his grandfather and father were forced to go through living in ghettos and barely scraping by. His grandfather was framed and jailed for manslaughter because a white man had a better lawyer. Being beaten became a way of life for his grandpa, if not by the police by his own father. The true tragedy lies in the fact that his grandfather wanted to advance the less than ideal education system we are all forced into as children. He spent years riding in slummy buses to the library in his spare time just to absorb everything he possibly could about physics. Being a poor African American man he knew he would never become a scientist, but he thought he could at least become a teacher and distribute the textbook he spent years writing. He couldn’t even get a teaching job. He went on to teach Nathan his first lesson, the lesson of conviction, when he marched with Martin Luther King Jr.
Nathan told me the story about how his father wanted to run for political office. Without an Ivy League background and the concern of a young, newly pregnant lover, his father was forced to drop out of school and bounce between minimum wage jobs just to support his blossoming family. He felt guilt over his father’s failure to fulfill his dream. He believed his birth was the burden that caused his father’s suffering, and wanted to alleviate that pain. The empathy Nathan had for his own family melted my heart.
I do want to have children and it pains me seeing what Nathan has had to go through. What if I had a bi-racial baby? If we had a child, what would he or she have to go through?
Nathan truly made the best of a sad situation with his positive attitude and intellect. Would our child be able to defy the odds the same way? Or would he be forced into a harsh world with less opportunity and more hatred?
The lyft driver dropped me off in the middle of downtown Chicago. I paced around the Chicago Theater, where he told me to meet him. Suddenly there was so much pressure in my chest. I felt like I desperately needed to take some deep breaths before seeing Nathan. In front of me were two giant groups: one consisted of white nationalists armed with torches and weapons, the other counter protestors armed with posters and valor. My hand floundered around my purse as I reached for my phone to call Nathan. I waited as I heard the phone ring for what felt like an eternity, but to no avail. He promised he would find me. We had planned to meet at the theater at seven and it was 7:05. Seeing that old building reminded me of when I would go with my family as a child. It was one of the reasons I wanted to become an artist. But now the unnerving red glow gave the theater a sinister demeanor.
I waited anxiously, tapping my feet. Loud sirens blared as people hollered hateful chants towards each other.
Suddenly I saw Nathan running over to me. He picked me up and kissed me like he had just come home from a long war, excited to see me.
“Wow, I’m glad you’re so happy to see me,” I said, a little overwhelmed.
“This is so much bigger than I thought it was going to be.” He explained with a disturbed tone.
“Are you sure this is safe?” I inquired.
“Thank you for being here for me.”
“I brought you sandwiches and water. Are you hungry?”
He snatched a sandwich out of my hand before I even finished the question.
“Is this chicken salad? Damn girl, you didn’t have to. Thank you baby,” he exclaimed.
Daylight dwindled quickly. The full moon peeked out from the wispy webs of thick cloud cover. As I watched Nathan eat the sandwich I obsessed over this morning, I saw that same faint, eerie red glow appear across Nathan’s dark face.
“Let’s go!” he said, pulling me through the crowd. Sweaty bodies rubbed past me. We jumped into a group chanting “No fascist USA!” It was obvious that Nathan was tight with this group because they lifted him up as if he was a rock star at a concert. Chanting loudly and proudly he brought the team spirit alive. In that moment I had wished that I were a part of something that fulfilled me half as much. We marched ahead fearless and blinded by the belief justice triumphs over all. I couldn’t help but imagine kissing him in that moment; he was beautiful.
The pace rapidly quickened. I grabbed onto Nathan’s foot so I wouldn’t lose him as we plunged ahead. Suddenly, the oppressively vulgar “Unite the right” sounding in front of us muffled our group’s mantra. The glow of the fire extinguished the autumn cool atmosphere once galvanized with humanitarianism. Instead the cool air turned into heat radiating off the white giants like they were igniting the flames with their loathing. The white nationalists hollered harder as they moved in on our group. One of their towering white phantoms thrust a gun against Nathan’s face. Panic overcame me. I trembled as I tried to muster the strength to overcome my fear. Could I be brave like Nathan? I’m soft. This is not what I signed up for. But Nathan needs me. With a shaky hand I pulled out the pepper spray I was so reluctant to use. Then out of the corner of my eye I saw a police officer.
“Please, help officer! They have guns!” I shouted.
The police stormed the area, pulling their guns out, ready to annihilate. I breathed a huge sigh of relief, until I looked up and saw whom the guns were pointed at.
“Nathan!” I screamed out to him. I turned to plead with the cop. “Please don’t shoot. They’re unarmed!”
“She said they’re armed!” one officer yelled to another. “Take your hand off the gun sir!” the same officer demanded.
“I’m unarmed! You’re pointing your guns at the wrong side!” Nathan yelled.
“Calm down sir! I said don’t move!”
The blood bath seemed to transpire in slow motion. I couldn’t move fast enough. My screams nearly drowned out the sounds of the unending eruption of gunshots. After all of the times that he saved me, I had failed to save him. All I had left to look upon was his limp, lifeless body lost in an expanding red ocean. I just held his head in my lap, tears lost amidst the growing red sea.
“Nathan, I never got to tell you how much I love you. I wish I could have been half of the person you are. I’m so sorry I couldn’t save you!” I wept and screamed as dizzying flashing lights seized the night sky and the sirens of ambulances drowned out my futile cries. | <urn:uuid:5966e6e2-024a-480a-9b03-04f55c25f84a> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://shortfictionbreak.com/love-and-war-2/ | 2020-09-27T16:15:15Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.985023 | 1,949 |

Do you know about a technique that is taking up everything by storm in the digital landscape? Well, that is nothing else than animation.

This is an adapted form of the sermon I preached this morning, All Saints Sunday. The gospel text was John 11:32-44, the raising of Lazarus.
One day, not long after Halloween, a day not unlike today, a monkey came upon a jar filled with Halloween candy. It’s not important how this jar got into the jungle. What’s important is that this monkey found it on the ground. And as he examined it, he saw all the delicious candy inside! He really, really wanted that candy. So he carefully reached his hand in, and he grabbed it. It was in his grasp! He licked his lips, thinking of the chocolate as he pulled his hand out, but…his hand wouldn’t come out. The fist he had made around the chocolate was too big to get back through the opening. He pulled and pulled, but he was stuck! He started to jump up and down, trying to get his hand out. He tried banging the jar on a tree, but that hurt his hand too much. Finally, he sat down on the ground. He gave up. He clung to that candy, but now he knew he’d never get to eat it. In fact, he wondered if he would die out here, stuck in this jar! And he was so sad.
I told that story to a group of kids once, and asked them what they would do if they were there. You know what they said? They said they try to tell the monkey to open his fist and let go, and the jar would fall right off. I asked them to finish the story. They said that the monkey did let go. The jar fell off, and then the monkey jumped in a tree, ate a banana, an apple, and five bugs, and then ran away happy. He never ate the candy!
I told those kids that they were actually a lot like Jesus in that story.
Because just like they set that monkey free, Jesus sets us free from the things we cling to. We don’t tend to cling to chocolate bars in jars. I mean the things we cling to when things are hard. The things we cling to when we are frightened. The things we cling to when death is at the door. All Saints Day is a day we come face to face with death, the reality that death is indeed at the door for each and every one of us. We don’t like to talk about death. It scares us. We don’t even like to say its name. We say that someone has passed, or that they’re no longer with us. It seems harsher, impolite, to say that they have died. But death is real. Some of you will be lighting candles in a few minutes in memory of someone who has died. I have no need to remind you that death is at the door.
But death is at the door for the rest of us as well. Death is not just the end of a life. It’s the end of anything we find hope or comfort in. Death is at the door when we live through any loss, or significant change. A separation or a divorce is a death. A family member or friend moving away is a death. A broken relationship is a death. Diagnosis of a disease is a death. A midterm election like this one can be a death. Death is at the door for us all.
And when death is at the door, we get scared. And of course we do. It’s normal, it’s human. When death is at the door, we cling. Of course we do. It’s normal, it’s human. We cling to memories, to the past. Or perhaps to money, power, or influence. Or perhaps to drugs, alcohol, or food. Or perhaps to ideas or political parties. These things aren’t bad things, but when we cling to them, we turn them into something they’re not. Martin Luther called them our gods, as in the First Commandment, “You shall have no other gods before me.” We cling to these things, and like the monkey with the jar, we can’t seem to let go.
Jesus, the Son of God, stood before Mary. Mary’s brother Lazarus had just died, and she clung to the idea that death is the end. “If only you’d been here,” she said, “my brother would not have died!” But there’s nothing you can do now.
Jesus, the Son of God, stood before the mourners, and they too clung to the idea that death is the end. “You opened the eyes of the blind man; couldn’t you have kept this man from dying?” But there’s nothing you can do now.
Jesus, the Son of God, stood before Martha, as she clung to the same idea. “Lord, don’t move the stone. There’s already a stench!” Lazarus is dead. You can’t do anything about that, Jesus.
And Jesus, the Son of God, stood before the tomb of Lazarus, and he shouted, “Lazarus, come out!”
And Martha’s grip on death being the end was loosened. And Mary’s grip was loosened. And the grips of all the mourners were loosened. Jesus freed them from what they clung to, as the dead man came out.
And that was just a foretaste, a prelude, of what he would soon do on the cross. Through his own death and resurrection Jesus broke death itself. He defeated it. Destroyed it. Neutered it. Undid it. Death has no more power, no more sting. We are set free from death, from every form of death, and so we are set free from what we cling to, whatever we cling to. Christ proclaims to us: There is life. There is life for us here and now. Like the children in the monkey story, Christ reaches into our jar, and slowly, slowly opens our fists. By ourselves, we could never let go! Lazarus didn’t raise himself. Mary and Martha didn’t raise him. But Christ did, and he is raising you up as well, giving you life abundant here and now.
Christ is loosening your grip on whatever you cling to.
You don’t have to free yourself. Let Christ free you. Trust, and have faith in him. And you will find that you are able to deal with what’s in front of you. And you will find that you are able to see glimpses of hope and peace even in the most unlikely place. You will find that there is life. There is always life.
And you will find that you are able to cling to the one thing that we can rely on, the thing that Christ gives us: God’s love. God’s grace. God’s faithfulness. The love of God that speaks to us like Jesus spoke to Martha, “You will see the glory of God.” The love of God that calls to all of us like Jesus called to Lazarus, “My beloved child, come out!” The love of God that in fact clings to us. And you will find that that love is enough. Christ is indeed the resurrection and the life, for us all. | <urn:uuid:4e1be18f-448b-43ec-9369-249e2446d4ff> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://thescholtes.com/2018/11/04/clinging/ | 2020-09-27T15:34:18Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.983454 | 1,574 |
Non Profit and Charity Accounting
Charity finance is completely different to business, not only in the aims and objectives of the organisations themselves but also because charity accountants need to be aware of complex regulations and reporting requirements that only apply in the third sector.
The charity accounting SORP (statement of recommended practice) is issued by the Charity Commission for England and Wales, the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland and the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator as a joint body recognised by the Financial Reporting Council.
Components of charity accounts
Under the SORP, a charity's accounts must include:
- A statement of financial activities (SOFA) including an analysis of your charitable organisation's income and expenditure.
- A balance sheet setting out any assets, liabilities and retained funds your charity might hold.
- A cashflow statement.
- And, for charities that are trading as limited companies, income and expenditure accounts.
As specialist accountants for charities, we can produce and manage all of the required documents and processes on your behalf, freeing up time for you to focus resources on your charity's core social mission.
It's always important to keep good financial records but charity and non-profit bookkeeping brings an added requirement for accountability and transparency to donors, funders, supporters and stakeholders.
For charities with a retail or trading division, such as those operating cafes or shops, it might mean keeping track of income and expenditure.
That might also mean taking into account the Gift Aid status of donors and tracking the Gift Aid component of the subsequent sale of donated items.
In England and Wales, charities must be audited if their gross income exceeds £500,000 in the accounting period, or if it has gross assets of more than £3.26m and income exceeding £250,000.
Under charity law, organisations with gross income of more than £25,000 per year have to arrange external scrutiny of their accounts, as agreed with the charity's trustees.
We have years of experience in charity auditing and conduct rigorous, appropriately challenging audits and external examinations that meet the requirements and standards of the SORP.
VAT for charities
Charities and not-for-profit organisations have special status and don't pay VAT on certain goods and services.
To claim this relief, you need to prove to the vendor that you're eligible. We can help manage this process and offer advice on making the most of the charity VAT partial exemption, identifying all the VAT reliefs to which your organisation might be entitled.
Though you don't have to register for VAT to claim those reliefs, HMRC's rules say you must do so if your charity's VAT taxable turnover is more than £85,000. We offer a charity VAT service as part of our wider package of accounting products and can manage VAT returns on your behalf.
Get in touch for a free consultation on your charity accounting requirements to find out how we can help your not-for-profit or charity organisation. | <urn:uuid:081bdc70-9959-4579-85a6-fb1af0880d3f> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.andpal.co.uk/our-services/specialist/charities | 2020-09-27T16:14:28Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.936353 | 608 |
Kerala Palada Pradhaman Recipe

Palada Pradhaman is Kerala’s authentic dish made during onam festivals. Onam sadya is not complete without this rich delicious payasam or kheer which is made of rice and milk. Ada is the main ingredient in making this payasam. Ada is a rice based mini dried papads that are is used in Kerala for making Pradhaman. The authentic palada pradhaman usually appears slightly pink in colour, it’s not the artificial color but the colour is from the milk itself. Slow cooked milk for hours induces the colour.

How to make Kerala Palada Pradhaman Recipe
To begin making the Kerala Palada Pradhaman recipe, first slow boil milk and 1/2 cup sugar on low flame until it reduces lesser than half the quantity.
I used pressure cooker with weight on for about 60 minutes and slow cooked/boiled the milk. The milk turned slightly pink in colour by doing this.
Cook ada as per packet instructions. Once cooked, drain the ada and rinse it in cold water to stop cooking.
Heat ghee in a pan. Add 1/4 cup sugar and saute. Wait till sugar melts and starts to turn slightly brown. Add cooked ada and saute for about 2 minutes.
Add about 1 to 1-1/2 cup boiled milk. Mix well. If it need more milk add it.
Sprinkle cardamom powder, mix well. Serve hot or cold. Either ways it tastes delicious. | <urn:uuid:f58b794a-9e29-4bf1-bd1f-bf2b14ecd528> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.archanaskitchen.com/kerala-palada-pradhaman-recipe | 2020-09-27T16:38:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.910762 | 428 |
I love studio work – especially adding lush, tight back-up vocals that help other people's music sound even better!
I charge $200 for the first two hours / $125 hr after that (in the Corvallis area).
If I need to travel, it's $30/hour for travel time.
Studio work includes singing back-up (I can usually come up with harmonies pretty quickly if needed!), lead vocals, narration, and voice-overs.

Briefing — An Introduction to California’s Public Mental Health System
About This Event
Over a million Californians receive services each year through California’s public mental health system, which includes services organized and provided through counties, Medi-Cal managed care plans, community-based organizations, schools, jails, and other entities. The state’s mental health system has a long history, multiple financing streams, and a complicated delivery system.
Increased numbers of people served through Medi-Cal since the expansion of the program in 2014, higher incidence of illness in some geographic areas and populations, and the crisis of homelessness in the state are all drawing attention to the public mental health system. It’s important to understand how the system works.
At this CHCF briefing on September 23, participants learned about the structure and financing of the system, how state and county responsibilities have shifted and grown under the Affordable Care Act, and how the current system and options for the future look from the perspectives of the state, the counties, and more.
A video of the briefing is available below. Speakers included:
- Jennifer Kent, MPA, Director, California Department of Health Care Services
- Adriana Ramos-Yamamoto, MPH, Health Policy Analyst, California Budget and Policy Center
- Michelle Cabrera, Executive Director, California Behavioral Health Directors Association
- Sarah Arnquist, MPH, Vice President of Client Partnerships, Beacon Health Options

Arthritis refers to pain, stiffness, and inflammation of joints. While you may think of arthritis as a condition prevalent in the older adults, however, it doesn’t differentiate on the basis of age, sex, and race. With having over 100 different types, arthritis can be found in young as well as old people. In fact, it’s found in more than 50 million adults and 0.3 million children, according to Arthritis.org.
Women develop arthritis most often as compared to men and the condition becomes more obvious in older adults. If you’ve any kind of arthritis, you may experience these common signs:
- Inability to move
Sometimes, these signs may be due to other conditions. It’s always recommended to check with your doctor as he can provide accurate feedback.
What are the Different Types of Arthritis?
Arthritis can be divided into many different types. These are:
This type of arthritis occurs when your immune system fails to work properly and instead takes on your joints. Due to the inflammation caused by your immune system, the joints begin to erode. Not only does it affect your joints but also other parts of the body, including:
- Internal organs
Inflammatory arthritis is highly infectious and causes severe disability. Some examples of inflammatory arthritis are:
- Lupus arthritis
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Psoriatic arthritis
- Ankylosing spondylitis
It’s important to diagnose this type of arthritis earlier so the treatment process can slow down the damage. If you’re in your earlier stage of inflammatory arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis, you’ll have fever, numbness, pain, joint stiffness, and limited range of motion.
This type of arthritis arises due to a high level of uric acid. People with high amounts of uric acid are unable to get rid of the build ups. As a result, this fluid is stored in the joints in the form of needle-like crystals. Metabolic arthritis is painful and causes severe inflammation. To help with the condition, the patient should be treated for the underlying problem. Although a few medications can help ease the pain, however, for long term, you need to reduce the level of uric acid. If left untreated, metabolic arthritis can cause severe pain and disability.
Gout is a typical example of metabolic arthritis, which triggers joint pain and discomfort. You can improve your condition by avoiding food that has high purines (a colorless crystalline compound) content in it. Foods that you should avoid if you’ve metabolic arthritis:
- Corn syrup
- Alcohol such as beer
- Red meat
These foods and drinks contain a high amount of fructose and purine. Therefore they should be avoided at all costs.
This is one of the most common types of arthritis. It occurs when the cartilage of your joints breaks down and becomes inflamed, which is also called osteoarthritis. While degenerative arthritis can attack any part of your body, the most commonly affected parts are joints in your hips, hands, and knees, etc.
Because of cartilage loss, your bones literally move over each other. If a patient is diagnosed with bone on bone condition, it means their cartilage has lost and they have degenerative arthritis. There are many risk factors for developing degenerative arthritis. Main of them are:
- Sports and exercise injury
- Genetic history
To deal with degenerative arthritis, you can use RICE technique.
Rest – get rest for some time
Ice – apply ice pack to reduce inflammation
Compression – wear compression sleeve or bandage
Elevation – elevate your affected area above heart level
What are the Causes of Arthritis?
There are at least a hundred different types of arthritis with varied symptoms and risk factors. With that being said, there’s no single cause of all types of arthritis. However, if you’ve developed the condition, you can consult with your doctor to learn more about its type and possible causes. Some of the common causes of arthritis are:
- Dysfunction of your immune system
- Metabolic abnormalities in the body
- Family history with arthritis
- Severe injury
- Infection due to virus, bacteria or fungus
While these can be just a few causes of arthritis, there are many other ways you can contract the condition without any apparent cause. It depends on what type of arthritis you have developed. Along with these common causes, other factors such as poor diet, unhealthy nutrition, injury, and infection can exacerbate your symptoms. It’s important to provide a full medical history to your doctor.
There are certain foods that can increase inflammation and pain due to arthritis. For example, food with highly refined sugar and carbs can worsen your condition.
What are the Different Treatment Options for Arthritis?
If you’re suffering from arthritis, you should avoid food high in refined sugar and carbs. As the discomfort and pain can be annoying, you should also apply home therapy and take over the counter medications. The main purpose of these treatment options is to control the pain, reduce swelling, and improve your condition.
Home Based Treatment Options
These include eating the right food, managing your body weight, reducing the risks of injury and fall, and taking care of your joints, etc. Changing lifestyle and self-care are the best ways to help with arthritis. Not only can you reduce your symptoms but also improve your quality of life. Below are ways you can control arthritis to some extent.
Healthy food – A nutrient rich diet with a low amount of refined sugar and carbs can dramatically help with pain and stiffness of your affected joint. You can also stick to any healthy, organic and vegetarian diet and eat food such as:
- Coconut oil
- Whole bread
These foods can significantly reduce your chances of pain and inflammation due to arthritis.
Managing pain – To cope with arthritis pain, you need to stay physically active, as it will help your joints to become activated. You can also start exercising if you’re overweight, as obesity can mess up your symptoms. Also, do regular check ups to update your physician on your condition.
Physical Therapies for Arthritis?
One of the most common and highly recommended treatment options for people with arthritis is physical therapy. The condition can become worse and the stiffness can increase if your affected area is not mobilized properly. Therefore, your doctor or therapist may recommend physical therapies that include movements such as standing, walking, and climbing, etc. The doctor also recommends certain exercises aimed at the affected area for quick recovery. These therapies have shown to have a significant impact on your condition.
Medication for Arthritis
Along with home based treatment option, self-care, and physical therapy, you can also take commonly used medicines for arthritis such as:
NSAIDs – These are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that curb inflammation to some extent and help with pain and stiffness. These medicines are frequently used to help with arthritis. Common NSAIDs are Diclofenac, Aspirin, Ibuprofen, and Diflunisal.
Corticosteroids – Corticosteroids are anti-inflammatory drugs that are used for arthritis and other similar conditions. These drugs are commonly used to reduce inflammation and provide your joints with warmth.
Painkillers – These medications are used to reduce pain by interfering with the nerves that carry pain messages to your brain. As a result, you don’t feel any pain. However, painkillers have side effects and they don’t reduce inflammation.
Surgical Options for Arthritis
There are different surgical options for people with arthritis. Each of these depends on the patient’s condition, medical history, and severity of the problem. It also depends on the type of arthritis. For example, people with inflammatory arthritis have three surgical options:
These strategies should be taken into account before having surgery. Based on your condition, the surgeon can also perform multiple surgeries at a time, if the need be. The aim is to help you improve fast and minimize hospitalization.
Arthritis is a severe and painful condition of legs, hands, and knee joints. If left untreated, it can cause severe structure deformities and leave you completely bed-ridden. The first thing you want to do is recognize which type of arthritis you have. Based on your condition and severity, you can either start a home based management of your problem or seek a doctor’s help. The doctor can better evaluate your condition and provide accurate treatment. Along with that, you can also use over the counter medications, get some rest, and do targeted exercises for arthritis. | <urn:uuid:818b6b21-c4f0-4c80-88a0-76242df9753e> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.countfit.com/how-to-get-relief-from-arthritis-pain/ | 2020-09-27T17:04:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.935573 | 1,788 |

These concepts are meant to be supplementary of training course, and are not meant to substitute a steady, quality therapeutic massage. Consumers need to often be dealt with to unwaveringly good support, timeliness, and professionalism by therapeutic massage therapists.
Reception / Ready Place Region
When your customer arrives, the very first issue they should truly feel is a feeling of getting welcomed into your practice. Both you or a receptionist should verify them in, supply them one thing to consume, and if you are not completely ready to see them immediately, offer you the client a seat in a waiting area until finally the therapeutic massage. Clients must be comfy in the waiting area, but bear in mind that ready areas are not meant as areas to “hold” a client right up until you have time to see them. Therapeutic massage therapists must make sure the waiting around space is a peaceful location for clientele to decompress prior to the session, but by no implies must the customer be there for an prolonged sum of time.
It is a very good concept to preserve a desk in your waiting place with a new pitcher of h2o and eyeglasses, so that your customer can stay hydrated prior to the therapeutic massage. Clientele frequently occur in for massages right after a long day at function or right after being trapped in targeted traffic on the freeway, and providing a little, healthy snack like a granola bar or fruit may also be appreciated by hungry clients ahead of the therapeutic massage. Therapists ought to provide a assortment of family-friendly magazines catering to each men and ladies. Be sure to frequently rotate your magazines close to so that even though waiting around for the massage, customers are not forced to study the identical material 7 days soon after week.
In the Massage Area
Prior to greeting your consumer, run through his or her S.O.A.P notes and assessment any notes about music tastes or aversion to scents from any prior massage. Clientele may be tired of a specific CD, and it is a good idea to make a little be aware about what tunes you listen to in the course of each session and review these notes to make confident your songs variety stays refreshing, just like journals. Moreover, many massage therapists burn scented candles or oils in the remedy space. Make positive you inquire your shopper periodically whether or not they like the scent, and if they do not, be positive to make a note of this as well.
After you greet and escort your shopper into your therapeutic massage place, be positive to explain to them what to do with their garments and shoes prior to the therapeutic massage. For clients who are regulars, you do not have to repeat your whole speech each time, but massage therapists should often say anything like “I’ll knock in a number of seconds after your have time to hang up your clothes and get cozy on the desk” ahead of leaving to prepare for the massage. Customers who have gained therapeutic massage ahead of probably know the drill, but therapeutic massage therapists ought to usually give every shopper the same consideration and care as a new consumer as an alternative of simply saying anything like “alright, see you in a few.” While the shopper is undressing, be certain to have a selection of locations offered to retailer private possessions. Therapeutic massage therapists ought to offer at the very least two hooks driving the door for coats and garments, possibly a little basket for footwear (this can make them less complicated to shift if you discover they are in the way during the therapeutic massage), and a small container for private belongings like mobile telephones, watches, jewellery, and so on. When not presented these facilities throughout a therapeutic massage, clientele may feel annoyed by getting to fold their clothes on a chair, or may really feel awkward about hanging their clothes up on a door. By providing a number of possibilities, you make everyone pleased.
Of program, you need to technique your therapy session with the exact same professionalism and treatment that you would during every massage. Therapists must make the environment fascinating, but keep in mind that it is the massage clients are most interested in. Stay targeted, pay attention to your client’s requirements, and persistently offer the optimum top quality therapeutic massage attainable.
After the Therapeutic massage
Following the massage, and based on your client’s choices, it is a good notion to near with a expressing or “thank you” to the customer. Massage therapists must rotate these sayings about at the stop of a therapeutic massage – clientele may be tired of hearing “thank you” every time, and anything as small as expressing “thank you for coming in nowadays” or “thank you for your time” may be just the tiny change essential to hold it interesting. Ahead of leaving the room, enable your shopper know that you will leave a scorching or moist towel on the shelf in case they want to get lotion off of their hands prior to obtaining dressed (some massage therapists supply this as an option, other individuals do not – it is up to you). It is also a good gesture to depart a mint or piece of sweet up coming to the towel so that clientele can come to feel refreshing and awake each time they leave the massage. Clients should be greeted in the waiting area with a fresh glass of h2o from a pitcher – a refreshing way for massage therapists to offer you their customers a healthier alternative to bottled h2o. Whilst your customer checks out, do not merely say “goodbye!” and walk back to your room, but commit some time talking with him or her about any changes felt, request about issue regions that are nonetheless bothersome, and suggest individualized stretches that the customer may use between classes.
It is effortless for therapeutic massage therapists to fall into a schedule, and these small suggestions are basic ways to spruce up your practice just adequate so that ahead of, for the duration of, and right after a therapeutic massage, clients continue to be fascinated and know that you are involved about their comfort and ease.

DRUMMOND – The Frosty Freeze, Rustic Express and the nearby apartments on the west end of Front Street in Drummond are now just a memory.
The buildings have been torn over the last week, removing what owner Susan Hale called an eyesore. Hale owns the property with her husband Wayne, and the two have as plans for the property in the future.
The Frosty Freeze had been a Drummond staple since being built in 1960, according to the Montana Cadastral. The single family dwelling, three apartment units and the retail building formerly housing the Rustic Express were all built in 1930.
Susan Hale indicated that the lot will remain empty for the time being. | <urn:uuid:0ec7a948-765e-48af-b4ff-36b820f542c1> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.flintcreekcourier.com/post/2019/05/29/drummond-mainstays-come-down-in-favor-of-renovation | 2020-09-27T16:55:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.974625 | 140 |
Easy Ways to Weight Loss After 50 or After Menopause?
Yes. Weight loss after 50 is not as hard as it’s portrayed to be. The hardest part may not be in the physical changes that need to happen, but in the mental weight we need to lose. Our thoughts can get in our way when we’ve had them so long. Change is hard. That part is true.
Prioritize sleep with food and exercise choices.
If you tend to go straight for the treadmill and the religious dedication to your step counter, stop. Without sleep your exercise and nutrition efforts are not going to work. Hormones in control of metabolism via lean muscle and cortisol control require sleep for optimal balance.
Your food and movement choices matter. The type and timing of exercise has everything to do with the quality of your sleep. Whether you do it inside or outside can have a big influence. Move intense exercise to early in the day and calm yourself with yoga or walk later in the day. Eat for sleep with serotonin-enhancing carbohydrates later in the day. You can increase your sleep by up to two hours in a 28 day time frame by changing your habits.
Exchange weight training for long slogs of cardio.
Surprise! You’re breaking up with the dreadmill. As much as we’ve laughed about treadmills that hold clothes, it might be a better use for it than providing fatigue-encouraging, muscle-wasting kinds of activity. That doesn’t accomplish the goal you have: balancing hormones more naturally to shed weight more easily.
If you’re not weight training, start. If you’re randomly doing strength exercise, start with a better plan. If you’re not reaching fatigue (though yes, after a reasonable progression) it’s a must to see change. You want to build up the lean to lose the fat. Cardio exercise will not do that. Ever.
Body weight training is not the same. That serves as movement and it’s definitely better than no workout. Weight loss after 50 is reliant on increasing lean muscle tissue with a means of reaching fatigue. The joint limits you may have with significant weight to lose make weight training the obvious winner so you can choose more exercises, more safely perform them, and increase your lean muscle.
Reduce your exercise time and increase your movement.
Exercise less, yes, you read that right. Move more all day. We do sit so much more than is favorable for our jobs so we need some exercise. But even the small things you can do each hour will help you become an “active person.” That is so much more tied to your risk or lack of overweight and obesity than is exercise. Weight loss after 50 is a result of both exercise and movement, but the greater of them is movement.
Get up and use the restroom. Get a drink of water. Stand to talk on the phone. Then a small bit of regular exercise is important to serve as a catalyst for the rest of your day. But begin to see it as just that, the rubbing the sticks together and the real flame for metabolism is the all day movement you have. People who have dogs move more. Become obsessed with cleaning your house.
Supplement to fill your micronutrient deficiencies.
It’s nearly impossible to eat enough in a day to reach our micronutrient needs that make us thrive. If you’re missing any, your well-oiled-fine-tuned vehicle of a body won’t run well. Your metabolism depends on all the parts being present.
Have you got years of dieting experience? Notice no one ever asked for that on a resume? It’s backfiring about now. Though it never really worked for your long-term advantage, it’s now amplified. It’s about getting in the goodness so you can get rid of the cravings (see more below on that).
Plan your perfect protein, fiber, and fat and carbs for each meal.
What you used to think is “healthy” is not necessarily right for you, right now. Most of us need to unlearn old ideas before we can create new thoughts that will be new actions that become new habits. Science you learned in elementary school even is probably still a part of old habit gravity that keeps you in conflict with what you know is right and what you want to do.
Get some support with lift off. You’ve got to break through that barrier before you can make a permanent change. The surprisingly easy thing is… the new habits are so much more enjoyable and so much less about deprivation than we’ve been led to believe.
Learn the right type and timing of carbs for every meal.
There are good carbs and better carbs. The time you have them is as important for weight loss after menopause (or during) as what you have. If you’re not sure what that means and you’ve simply given up bread, you’ve got a toe in the water. Get educated on the carbs that help you lose weight after 50 and when they’re best consumed.
Treat cravings as clues.
Don’t give into them but do listen to them. There’s gold in those cravings. They can be telling you that your exercise is too long, too intense, or too frequent. They can be telling you that you’re really not sleeping as much or well as you need to sleep They can tell you that you’re cutting corners and playing the calorie game cheating yourself out of micronutrients you need to boost your metabolism.
Specific cravings like salt or sugar, or very specific like chocolate, have intel behind them. Cacao has magnesium in it for instance. So that chocolate craving? Could be telling you to get more in your diet or supplement (preferably not by way of chocolate).
Yes, some day a little chocolate is going to be fine. Today is not your day.
Start eating and stop drinking your calories.
I’m a smoothie girl so this may confuse you if you know me. Wine loving girl, I’m talking to you. Right now, if belly fat, or weight loss is a problem, wine isn’t your friend. It decreases your likelihood of having a healthy meal after, increases fat storage no matter what it might be, and halts the fat burning that will help your cause.
You don’t have to say goodbye forever, but you need to, as a Flipping 50 community member told me just last night, break up. She said she and wine aren’t on speaking terms right now.
Start adding instead of subtracting food.
Nothing that starts with deprivation leads to long term success! If you’re adding all the things to your daily plate and bowl that will get you full of micronutrients that make you glow and fiber, fat, and wholesome foods that keep you full, you will naturally reduce cravings.
This “crowdsourcing” method of eating keeps your eye on eating MORE of the good stuff. When you do you’ll lose those distracting thoughts and be so much less tempted by processed foods or sweets.
Kick sugar-free foods & artificial sweeteners to the curb.
Your confused body won’t shed weight. Instead it will slow your metabolism. Sugar-free popsicles, low-fat sugar-free ice cream or frozen yogurt, artificial packets of sweeteners. Stevia, and sugar alcohols (if you can tolerate them), is really the only thing you want to be using, but sparingly.
The best rule is look at anything that’s become a crutch for you and start weaning off of it. Weight loss after 50 requires more focus on the right things and leaving old, and incorrect, habits behind. But, you’ve got this!

A new app connects teens to social services, and is helping homeless youngsters find shelter and crisis help.
In the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, a collaboration between a business and a nonprofit organization has resulted in a new web application to help young people connect to social service agencies. It also helps families receive services connected to teens faster.
At the Youth Services Network, a collaboration of a dozen nonprofits, the development of the app is welcome. “This puts the resources right in the hands of the youth who need it, as well as the social workers, anybody looking for a youth resource, in one solid format,” said Ali Kier, youth response center supervisor at The Bridge for Youth.
“You’re not going from one Web page to another or making multiple phone calls to see what is available at a time of crisis and it can keep things from escalating. Even if there isn’t a shelter opening or a service available, the user can be notified by text immediately when a bed or a service is available. You don’t have to wait for a phone call. It’s not just youth services, but also parental support that will help the youth and family. There’s a lot of different layers with this tool.” | <urn:uuid:dfe9bd26-ca53-40d2-83af-dd0839e58d3b> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.howtolearn.com/2015/07/app-connects-teens-to-social-services/ | 2020-09-27T15:53:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.944785 | 262 |

A windy river bed on the way to Anadyr...
4/24: Day 10
Leaving Uelkal, and after having completed my school presentation, I was greeted by a local Chukchi who wanted to give me yet another intriguing gift. He insisted on giving me a tie which he received in Canada. I looked at it closely and noticed the fine print stating "Groenland". I figured that an Eskimo from Greenland gave it to him at one of the intercultural exchanges they have amongst Arctic populations. I mentioned to him that I did not really have any use for it on the trail to which he responded, "Keep it for later"....
I was finally able to leave town at 4pm and knew that it was going to be a late night if I wanted to be make it straight to Pietr's fishing cabin where I had stopped on the way to Egvekinot with the wezdehod convoy.
I followed the coast for a while, going south until I entered the mouth of a river going westward. The bed of this river progressively became a narrower beautiful canyon with steep banks. Since the river was curving quite a lot but generally moving towards the south western direction, I decided to try to save on the mileage by going straight and therefore had to climb and descend one steep bank after the next, making the night trek quite exciting!
At around 9:30pm I switched from my "day attire" to my "evening attire", as the temperature was dropping to 0 degrees Fahrenheit (about -17 Celsius) as you can see below.
The two electronic items which I was using at the time (GPS & Ipod) became somewhat affected by the cold. The text was disappearing on the GPS (which made me a little bit anxious for a certain amount of time) and the ipod was no longer working properly. I realized that no matter how impractical this might be, I had to remove them out of their external pouches and place them on the inside of my coat, close to my body, in order to provide to them a sufficient amount of heat.
I finally arrived at 4am at Pietr's camp and was disappointed to find it locked.
Pietr was definitely out of town !
After having covered 13.2 miles in 12 hrs, I camped as the sun was rising and the wind picking up: 65.2403N, 179.3359W
Total since Egvekinot: 75.5 miles
4/25: Day 11
Got up and left some food in a bag attached to the door knob of Pietr's cabin. Items that I bought in Uelkal and were no longer easily edible since they were solidly frozen.... the typical items that your average Frenchman might start to crave after a few weeks: bread, cheese, mustard (!) and even a fresh yet frozen onion, which is sometimes hard to get here!
I continued trekking up the frozen river bed, facing a steady strong wind.
I was then recalling how while racing the Raid Gauloises adventure race in Vietnam with my friend Don Funk, he used to refer to the wind as "my friend", hoping for a cool breeze in the jungle.
Well, as I often experienced in the artic, the wind is often not your friend....
This "special friend" finally tapered down in the evening, allowing me to find a great and stable campsite.
I camped at 65.2385N , 179.5084W, dying to pull out my sat phone and call 'Ilima, definitely feeling a bit lonely on that night...
Trekked from 17:00 until 01:00, and covered 9 miles in 7 hrs.
Total mileage since Egvekinot: 84.5 miles
4/26: Day 12
I woke up with the unusual sound of planes which I continued to hear throughout the day, realizing that I was obviously on the path of the Anadyr-Egvekinot/Providenya/Lavrentiya flying routes, in the middle of a large plateau which separates two mountain ranges.
I started trekking at 2pm and after about 3.5 hrs, I stopped to take the time to commemorate my friend Abby's birthday in Seattle by doing a bit of snow carving...
Suddenly, for the first time since I left Uelkal and for the last time until I reached Anadyr, 7 days later, (with the exception of a wezdehod passing near my tent in the middle of a night),
I saw a fellow human, standing right behind me next to his snowmobile and asking me if I wanted to have my sled pulled all the way to his cabin, located about .5 miles later on the bank of the river and which I could already see from where I was standing.
I refused but agreed that I will meet him for tea.
On the way to his cabin, I started wondering how dangerous it could be to travel alone on a snowmobile, in the event of a breakdown, with a limited amount of survival gear. As I approached the cabin, I noticed two snowmobiles and discovered upon entering the warm cabin, which was not any bigger than a bus stop, a total of 3 fishermen (Artun, Anton and Vova) and their dog.
They invited me to stay with them and I debated with myself, since I had only trekked for 4 hrs, and had covered a meager amount of 4.6 miles for the day. After talking to them, they mentioned that I was most likely not going to see another cabin until I got to Anadyr. This was enough to convince me that it was definitely worth losing a few miles on that day, and enjoy the warmer comfort of a cabin and above all the pleasure to meet 3 young fishermen out and about on their Saturday night, away from wives and kids back in Uelkal. Since there were only two bunk beds in this minimal space, they insisted on letting me having one of them, while two of them slept on the floor on top of reindeer fur with their dog. I did not want to accept their generosity but the leader insisted that I needed a good night sleep and all the strength I could get for the days waiting ahead of me in the tundra.
We spent a few hours talking and in the morning, I prepared them a meal with my great Mountain House dehydrated meals which they were eager to try out. They were also apparently excited to bring back home to their daughters some of my nutritious Larabars.
Camped at 65.2166N, 179.5714W.
Total mileage since Egvekinot: 89.1 miles
4/27: Day 13
A beautiful sunny day with no wind !
Temperature rose up to 0 Celcius.
Trekked through a vast plain, nestled between a Northern and a Southern mountain range.
Enjoyed on my ipod a book on the history of Russia and the Soviet Union and some eclectic music such as Gogol Bordello and Tiger Lillies...
Camped at 65.1347N, 179.4105E
11:20 hrs (10:15-21:35), 15 miles
Total mileage since Egvekinot: 104.1 miles
4/28: Day 14
Sunny morning until the fog moved in...
Followed wezdehod tracks, going over multiple hills and plateaus.
Saw a beautiful little white fox.
Also saw two of the last few tripods perched on the highest points of the plateau to indicate the "wezdehod route" similar to the tripods one can see in some sections of Alaska, such as between Nikolai and Mc Grawth.
Less pleasing eyesight were the bottles of vodka and beer discarded on the trail by some of the drivers.
Camped at 65.0717N, 179.1527E where I spent a late evening repairing gear, fixing rotten laces in ski boots.
Heard one wezdehod driving by my tent around 3am.
As mentioned before, the only one I heard between Uelkal and Anadyr.
8:45 hrs (11:30-21:15), 15.2 miles
Total mileage since Egvekinot: 120.3 miles
4/29: Day 15
Sunny morning, woken up by beautiful little white birds with black under wings called "Kuropatka" which make a sound similar to cranes.
Marks left by the birds as they take off...
Listened to French radio podcasts, and progressively felt very tired during the day.
After a few hours, I called 'Ilima on my sat phone to try to get an uplift!
I informed her of what I thought was an incomprehensible tiredness and she advised me to stop and camp right away. I mentioned that I could not afford to stop after having completed only 5 miles and needed to move on.
After 10 miles, having trekked for 8 hrs and 45 minutes (12:15-21:00), I finally decided to stop and kept my ipod on while setting up camp to fight tiredness.
This is when, while listening to the comedian Chris Rock, distracted that I really blew it!
I was using my MSR stove and did not realize that more liquid was leaking out of the pump, even though I had closed one of the two valves. When I lighted a match to prep the stove, I realized then that I had way too much fuel to burn... A large flame gushed out and caught the tent on fire.
I immediately threw the stove out of the tent which allowed me to save approximatively 70% of my tent, and 95% of the rain fly.
I felt quite shocked, knowing that I could have burned myself and my entire tent in this remote location.
I felt quite ashamed as well for not having demonstrated any more precaution while using a highly combustible fuel inside a tent, knowing the risks involved.
Definitely a wake-up call !
Yes, I know, some of you might argue that no one should ever use a stove inside a polyester tent but that is not a very practical option in an artic environment. I just need to demonstrate much more carefulness in the future and know when to stop on the trail.
As this experience reminded me, progressing in the remote tundra is quite different from some of my past experiences in adventure races for example. You can't afford to go beyond exhaustion, lay down a few hours, then get up and go. Setting up camp definitely takes a certain amount of effort and attention requiring a substantial amount of energy that cannot be overlooked.
That night, I left a message with 'Ilima looking for a bit of comfort through her kind and familiar voice (I must admit!) and to inform her of what has happened. We spent a substantial amount of time the next morning trying to find a way for me to get a replacement tent while in Chuklotka.
In the end, knowing that the choice of tent in Anadyr is quite limited, we decided to purchase the same type of tent (The North Face, Mountain 25) which 'Ilima purchased used but in mint conditions from our friends at 2d Ascent in Seattle.
The tent was then shipped via USPS express mail to Nome, Alaska where it made the next flight to Anadyr on May 7th.
I ended up picking it up in Anadyr on May 8th, after having had to pay a hefty 40% tax to the Russian customs.
In the end, I managed to spend that first night in my tent, trying to arrange as much of a shelter as I could with the rain fly and a bivouac bag, covering most of the section that had been burned down.
"Camped"at 65.0419N, 178.5735E
8:45 hrs (12:15-21:00), 10 miles
Total mileage since Egvekinot: 130.3 miles
4/30: Day 16
Rolling hills, climbing up to 500 feet.
The wind started picking up at night around 23:30, which prevented me from keeping snow outside the tent. Several times in the night, I had to sweep snow out of the tent.
"Camped"at 65.0111N, 178.2919E
10 hrs (11:30-21:30), 14.5 miles

May 1st: Day 17
Rolling hills, more down hills, starting to move towards the lowlands, near Anadyr.
Came across a white rabbit, quite a few bushes and more and more alarming patches of dirt...
Managed to "bury" the tent, somewhat setting it up like an igloo to prevent any snow from coming in. Thankfully, there was no wind during that night.
Serious amount of traffic in the neighborhood!
"Camped"at 64.5536N, 178.0347E
8 hrs (13:30-21:30), 14.6 miles
Total mileage since Egvekinot: 159.4 miles
May 2: Day 18
Walking through steppes which felt like walking through sand dunes.
Played hide and seek with a red fox for a while.
5 miles from Anadyr....
Over the last few hours, as I was getting closer to civilization, I started to see more and more animal tracks as well as human activities (one helicopter and one plane overhead).
I started to see as well more wezdehod tracks and even some snowmobile tracks which are often the smoothest ones to follow.
As I approached Anadyr's bay, at around 23:30, the darkness finally came down and I crossed the frozen bay, away from any traffic, in the most direct line aiming at the city. As I was approaching the city, because of the intense fog, the city started to appear and disappear alternatively in front of my eyes. Somewhat of a quite, peaceful, magic moment.
What was less than magic was the fact that neither the GPS location nor the map coordinates that I have corresponds to the exact location of Anadyr. Apparently for historical reasons that one can imagine, this was done on purpose. The coordinates were pointing to a location in the middle of the bay which added about 2 miles to my trek at the end of my day...
At 02:00, I finally arrived in the port and was welcomed by a guard and his dogs. Not completely clear on what was this foreigner doing in his port at 02:00, he proceeded to call the borderguards. They arrived by taxi a few minutes later and helped me pull my sled up the steep snowless hill road to take me to their post where they proceeded to take my mug shot. to question me on my intentions and review all of my documents. At 04:00, I was finally free to go.
Learning from this experience as well, in the future, I will try to prevent a late night arrival in a Russian town to avoid any complications, even if it is tempting to do so when you are so close to the target!
13 hrs (11-2), 22 miles
Total mileage since Egvekinot: 181.4 miles
Arrived in Anadyr: 64.4436N, 177.3049E
May 3d-9th, Day 19-25
Over the last 6 days, while waiting for my replacement tent to be shipped to Anadyr, I have had to take care of some of the following matters which is not always easy to coordinate in such an outpost:
- Coordinate the shipping of all my remaining supplies to:
+Markova with the help of ChukotkaDiscovery who offered to ship my supplies via snowmobiles, since they are on a reconnaissance tour to Markova
+Magadan on May 22d via Chukotavia Airlines where some of it will have to be re-dispatched to Kamenskoye and Evensk with the help of Kulu Safaris.
- Repair gear (boots, poles, ski skins, sleeping bag)
- Conduct interviews with Chukotka Radio and TV, Russia TV
- Meet with Markova hunters and fishermen to learn what is going to be the best route to follow fo the weeks to come between Anadyr and Markova
- Set up contacts in Krasneno, Vayegi and Markova
- Work on processing documents required for the next few stages
- Obtain new and more detailed Chukotka maps (1 cm=1 km)
- Test replacement tent in Anadyr after I was able to test it, set up anchors and drying clothe lines inside.
- Met with old and new friends in Anadyr that I have now known since 2006 and will dearly miss after my departure.
Once again, I want to thank everyone that has been so kind to me in Anadyr, going out of their way to help this struggling stranger, often gesticulating to make up for his lack of vocabulary to get what he needed to continue this expedition.
Going forward, I am planning to leave Anadyr in the next few hours on May 9th, the Russian holiday which commemorates the end of WWII.
I will proceed west towards Krasneno.
Anadyr- Krasneno (64.38N, 174.45E)
Krasneno(going south west through the mountain range) - Vayegi (64.1N, 171.02E)
Vayegi-Penzhino (63.32N, 168E)-Kamenskoye (62.3N, 165.10E)
The last two towns that I am planning to cross in Chukotka are therefore Krasneno (pop: 60) and Vayegi (pop: 200).
Because of the current melting of the snow and ice, I am no longer planning to go through Markova which is surrounded by water and swamps.
However, I am planning to have my supplies in Markova sent to Vayegi via air, which is currently the only mode of transportation between these two towns.
For now, signing off in Anadyr! | <urn:uuid:d10b360d-db33-4611-879f-e27ac539b328> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.nexusexpedition.com/blog.php?journal_year=2008 | 2020-09-27T17:03:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.97447 | 3,824 |

As you may have heard (or seen on our social media pages), Plymouth 400 hosted a delegation of thirteen representatives from Plymouth, UK last week, to discuss cultural arts collaborations, educational programming, and economic development opportunities surrounding the 2020 commemoration (Think: co-commissioned works for theatre companies both here and in the UK, shared art and history exhibits, scholarship opportunities for students to travel between the US and UK doing research projects, etc.) and, really, the opportunities are endless!
The delegation, called Mayflower 400, was comprised of leaders of Plymouth, UK’s higher education institutions, theatre arts and heritage organizations, and Plymouth City Council. Here’s a quick recap of our week:
On Monday, Mayflower 400 and Plymouth 400 met with Lea Filson, Governor General of the General Society of Mayflower Descendants.
The group took a quick walk down to Plymouth Rock and along the waterfront before lunch at Wood’s Seafood.
(The Plymouth 400 staff had to give lessons on eating a lobster!)
After a long afternoon of meetings with Plymouth Town Offocials, Mayflower 400 was treated to dinner at Tavern on the Wharf, where Mayflower 400 Chair Adrian Vinken presented Plymouth 400 President Ken Tavares with a 2020 Commemorative flag.
On Tuesday, Plymouth 400 invited arts & culture organizations from around the South Shore and Cape Cod to a discussion at Plymouth Center for the Arts, during which our UK visitors made meaningful connections with their counterparts here.
Tuesday afternoon included brainstorming sessions on economic development and education, and ended with a beer tasting at Craft Beer Cellar Plymouth.
Adrian Vinken, Chair of Mayflower 400, and Ken Tavares, President of Plymouth 400 signed the official Memorandum of Understanding between the US and UK, which states that our two organizations will work together in commemorating this iconic moment in world history (check out the video!)
On Wednesday, Plymouth 400 invited our guests to Boston for a meeting with Governor Charles Baker, Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito, Speaker of the House Robert DeLeo, Senate President Stanley Rosenberg, Secretary of Housing and Economic Development Jay Ash, Representative Tom Calter, MOTT Executive Director Francois-Laurent Nivaud, and Executive Director of Massachusetts Cultural Council Anita Walker
The Massachusetts Cultural Countil then invited Plymouth 400 and Mayflower 400 to a working lunch, where we made connections with arts and heritage organizations from around the Commonwealth and discussed the endless opportunities for collaboration on events in and around 2020.
Mayflower 400 Chairman Adrian Vinken summed up the UK’s sentiment towards the whole 2020 commemoration well by saying, “The Mayflower carried on board the seed of the soul of the American nation, and in that sense it was the most important single voyage in the history of mankind.”

We did something a little different with the Podcast this week. We spend a lot of time talking about the Radio Industry on our show, simply because I’m a fan of radio. Part of that is the radio industry is cutthroat and stupid. Cody Hudson was a morning show jock at KISS 103 in Emporia and Tuesday, he was let go from the station.
We turned over our Rambling Morons podcast to his fans.
Thanks for making this a very special show for a very special radio personality!
- 00:01 – We were joined by Cody Hudson who won a bet with his Mom on who would say the “F” word first. In the first 30 seconds. So, EXTRA Red Lobster tonight.
- 00:02 – Fuck you, corporate America, Red Lobster and Olive Garden. We have your number.
- 00:03 – The first offer to take out my penis. It won’t be the last.
- 00:04 – SOPA Update. The Internet > Everything
- 00:06 – Laurie’s Soy Sauced Laptop Update
- 00:09 – My “buddy” Troy crashed 610 Sports last week, so I crashed ESPN2
- 00:16 – New Royals Slogans – “Our Time”
- 00:20 – Fake Ned Minute – “Our Time”
- 00:22 – Laurie Jenn Minute – Peace, Love and Slavery
- 00:24 – Our interview with Cody Hudson. Epic doesn’t begin to describe it. Listen to the whole 45 minutes. You’ll thank me for it. We interlace the interview with your voicemails you left us telling us how much he’ll be missed on the Emporia airwaves. And I think there might’ve just been a crank call for a gardening company in there somewhere.
- P.S. It’s entirely likely that his new podcast will kick my podcast’s ass. But I’m okay with this. This guy is funny.
- No. Seriously, just listen to the whole thing. This guy is hilarious. And he comes with a posse. So that’s nothing to be trifled with. | <urn:uuid:0247ac81-4d0f-4170-ad49-5da105a9a6da> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.ramblingmorons.com/rambling-morons-podcast-10-this-sunday-cody-hudson/ | 2020-09-27T17:33:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.938739 | 476 |
The famous Glen Abbey golf course has got the heritage status from the town council and has gained some protection from being redeveloped into a housing complex. The property located in the town of Oakville had already hosted the Canadian Open 29 times and is the scheduled venue for next year.
How it Happened: A Look
ClubLink, owner of Glen Abbey wants to convert the golf course into a combination of 3,200 houses along with offices and retail spaces. But the plan was met with strong opposition from the residents who want it to be preserved. The town council voted strongly in favor of the proposal awarding the heritage designation following the Ontario Heritage Act.
Glen Abbey was designed by golf star Jack Nicklaus 40 years back and had been the venue for top golf championships. The property also houses the Golf Canada office, the Canadian Golf Museum, and Hall of Fame.
Mayor Rob Burton was present in the crowded council chamber where the voting was held. He said that he was aware of the concerns of the residents regarding Glen Abbey who is looking forward to keeping it untouched. Canadian authorities are trying to protect not only national heritage places, but they also want to improve gambling activities and make them more credible, among which we can mark out ValleyGames web advisor. Here you can choose a suitable online casino according to your taste. People always related Glen Abbey with Oakville and vice versa and he sees the importance in what the residents had to say. He also expressed that heritage held a strong meaning for them and his town was leading the way in conserving its heritage assets.
What Can ClubLink Do?
ClubLink has got 30 days to launch an appeal against the heritage status to the Conservation Review Board. Their appeal will be heard on 26 September by the Oakville town council and there can be several outcomes.
Depending on the regulations set by the town council, the development plan can still go forward even if ClubLink’s appeal doesn’t stand out. Toronto’s heritage planning consultant Paul Dilse says that the council can be lenient towards the appeal and may allow the golf course and constructions stay side by side.
So, what are the other roadblocks?
The residents have made up the Save Glen Abbey Coalition to oppose ClubLink’s development plans. Fraser Damoff, spokesperson for the group said that commented that the golf course was a gem and an integral part of Oakville’s identity. The town had developed around Glen Abbey through the years and people associate the golf course with the town all the time. With other parts of Oakville being occupied by single homes, it was important for Damoff and others to take a step to preserve it.
Saving the Golf Course – Can it Happen?
The initiative to save the golf course got an impetus after the winner of Canadian Open, Jhonattan Vegas from Venezuela expressed that he wanted the club to stay active. He said that he will be one of the biggest voices in the movement and keep it going strong.
The golf championships are a source of earnings for the town through visitor spending and provide a good return on investment. | <urn:uuid:2a1f538d-af05-4612-bb1d-d5738f344803> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://www.sandhillsgolf.ca/glen-abbeys-heritage-status-may-stop-clublinks-redevelopment-plans/ | 2020-09-27T17:10:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.97469 | 633 |

Lake Oswego HVAC System Replacement
Everything starts with an inspection of your Lake Oswego HVAC system. It won’t matter what make or model it is. Our technicians may recommend replacement if the HVAC system is, for instance, approaching the end of its 15- or 20-year life span. A replacement may also be a good idea if the unit breaks down continually and has led to unusual spikes in your energy bills.
Not every size unit will be appropriate for your home, so we’ll present you with the right options after taking certain details into account. These include the square footage that will be cooled and the home’s level of sun exposure.
You’ll be able to choose from:
- Packaged units
- Heat pumps
- Geothermal heat pumps
- Fan coils and evaporator coils
Besides the AC installation, you can ask us to put in a better thermostat in your Lake Oswego home. We carry programmable and smart thermostats from Carrier. The latter comes with Wi-Fi compatibility and can create an energy-efficient cooling schedule based on your temperature preferences. Many of our thermostats boast zoning and humidity controls, too.
Technicians Who Respect Your Home
You’ll love how courteous our technicians are and how much effort they put into protecting your property. You won’t be left with a mess to clean up once we’re done. Customer satisfaction is 100 percent guaranteed.

An iFrame (Inline Frame) is an HTML document embedded inside another HTML document on a web site or blog. This method gives you control over the height and width in the actual embed code. It is the most reliable method for displaying a survey on your web site.
Embedding surveys in your web site or blog, will allow your visitors to directly participate in your survey without ever leaving your site or opening a new window. This way, surveys will become a natural part of your web site, and with SurveyLegend’s endless visual customizations you can upload your own background and make your survey look completely integrated with your web site. You can even make it into an interactive product gallery, where people can vote on your products while viewing them, or give feedback and share their ideas with you.
Another advantage is that you will be totally independent of any plugins. If you are using a CMS such as WordPress or Joomla, you don’t even have to bother looking for plugins and making them work with your CMS. All you have to do is to put our code into your web site, and you will always have your surveys there, no matter how often you upgrade your core system.
We offer a simple and easy way to embed surveys into your online web pages. It is as easy as “copying and pasting a little piece of code into your web page”.
Our app automatically generates the iFrame embed code for you and you can simply copy the code, which you will find in the share step, and paste it into any web page, blog post, or website that you want. The code would look like this example below:
style="frameborder: 0; border: 0; margin: 0 auto;"
How to use the IFrame code
To embed your survey into a webpage, simply follow the steps described here:
- Select your survey, and go to the “share” step.
- Copy the generated Iframe code which is unique for your survey.
- Then go to your website’s admin panel or to the HTML source of your site or blog, and paste the iFrame code in it, where desired.
- Save your page, and enjoy a live survey right inside your own web site!
- Just notice that instead of this text: you get the actual survey link in our app, when you copy it from the “share” step.
Customizing your IFrame
How your embedded IFrame appears in a page depends on where you are embedding it and what HTML element is containing it. If the container is too small it may affect how the IFrame is rendered on your page. You can modify the width or height of the IFrame if desired.
By default, the generated IFrame code’s width is set to 100%: width="100%", which means the survey will horizonally cover its container entirely.
You can manually change the width value to other values (percentage or pixel). For example, width: 700px; will make a container for your survey which is 700 pixels wide, width: 70%; will make a container for your survey which covers 70% of the width of the page it is shown in.
The height of the iframe depends upon the height of your survey questions or the height of your survey page. Generally it’s better to avoid long surveys, by incorporating “Page breaks” in your survey. So if you have a small and tidy survey, adjust the height of your survey according to that. For example, in the iframe code, you can change the height to 700 pixels like this: height="700px"
Transparent background for IFrame
Turn this setting ON to make the background of the IFrame fully transparent. This way, when the survey is loaded in the IFrame, it won’t have any background image, and if the HTML page that contains your survey has a background image, that image will be displayed in the background of the survey too. This makes the questionnaire seamlessly look like a part of your website.
This setting only works for embedded surveys using our IFrame code, which means if you load the survey using the hosted link, the background that you have chosen in the ‘Design step’ will be loaded. So, don’t worry for sharing the survey via hosted link.
IFrame notification on submit
On the ‘Share’ step where you see the generated IFrame, you see a setting called “IFrame notification”. Enabling this setting allows you to send a notification message to the HTML page which contains your IFrame, as soon as responses are submitted.
This opens up many possibilities for you. For instance you can hide the IFrame containing the survey, load another questionnaire, send the user to another page, or perform any desired actions after your respondent submits their answers.
Simply copy the generated script and paste it in your HTML code where the IFrame is embedded, or create a separate script-file and load it in the same web-page.
This feature will empower you to take control of any event that you desire to happen after your respondents press the SUBMIT button. To achive such a level of control, you would normally need to have your own server and setup webhooks, which would be quite complex. But with this feature, all you need is your own site and you own script.
Include responses in notification
Enable this setting to include the submitted responses in the notification message to the HTML page which contains your IFrame.
This opens up limitless possibilities for you. For instance you can save the data to your own system directly, without using webhooks, you can perform actions depending on responses to specific questions like displaying custom thank you pages or loading follow-up surveys, based on respondents’s answers.
Responses that potentially could contain sensitive information will be passed to the site containing the IFrame, which could be infected with malicious scripts listening to messages from all IFrames, it can be using plain unencrypted http requests exposing information over the network, etc. This is beyond SurveyLegends control, it’s your responsibility to embed the survey on a secure site and handle the data passed with utmost care.

Building a High-Performing Sales Culture of Success
Salespeople are the revenue engine of your company. Empty territories lead to missed quotas which equates to lost revenue.
You need top sales performers and you need a fast and effective way to identify top sales talent.
You need salespeople who possess the sales characteristics that best align with your selling environment. You also need people who are the right culture fit for your company.
Here are 2 steps to recruit top salespeople and build a sales culture of success:
1. Build a Flexible Blueprint
Define the sales job you’re hiring for
Hiring your perfect fit starts with defining your perfect fit. Just as you define your corporate culture, you need to define your open sales position.
- Job title
- Who they are selling into
- Who they report to
- Average deal size
- Quota and average sales cycle
- Commission structure
Work with the sales executive team and managers to get a clear picture of the sales characteristics noted above. Before you even begin recruiting, you need to have clear expectations around the role to help you understand who you should be looking for.
Understand the key sales characteristics required
Companies often fail to hire when they misalign the sales characteristics required for their particular selling environment (your sales culture).
Each type of sales role requires certain sales characteristics that enable your new hires to be successful in the role. There are a few sales characteristics hiring managers should keep in mind regarding their sales job and the sales candidates they are looking for. This is deeply connected to your sales culture and is something that should be considered.
Ask yourself, does this sales job require:
- A transactional or strategic selling approach?
- Inside or outside sales experience?
- Sold into general decision makers or C-level decision makers?
- Sold a product or service?
- Hunting or farming sales experience?
2. Give Your Recruiting Team the Support They Need
Culture is a business objective, not just an HR objective.
In order to hire the best sales talent, sales leadership need to be involved throughout the process. There needs to be a process, budget, and an actionable timeframe.
Time and budget
Hiring talented sales professionals will cost you both time and money, and your recruiting team needs both. Understand what your budget looks like and where you can allocate those resources.
Where will you invest your budget?
- Job boards
- Social media advertising
- Career fairs
- Resume databases
- Offering employee referral incentives
- Partnering with a sales-exclusive search firm
Determine which channel provides both the largest quantity of applicants and the quality of applicants. Adjust your recruiting strategy as needed.
Leadership and process
Before you start interviewing candidates, know which of your team members are involved in the process and how many steps that process consists of. You want to be mindful of this and have alignment to make the best hiring decision without slowing down the process. It’s not a bad idea to have this process in writing so that everyone involved can clearly see each step.
An example of this is:
- Phone screen (HR Manager)
- Face-to-face interview with the hiring manager and team members
- Face-to-face interview with the VP of Sales

Located about 30 minutes from the Las Vegas Strip, Lake Las Vegas serves as a quiet oasis on a hot, sweltering day. In 1990, the 320-acre private lake was artificially created using 11 billion gallons of water. Due to the three resorts that sit along the lake, it's sometimes referred to as Lake Las Vegas Resort. Although the lake is private, the Lake Las Vegas Marina offers boat charters, paddleboat rentals, and other water-based recreational sports activities.
Visitors to Lake Las Vegas can expect to find a laid-back, resort town away from the craziness of The Strip. Many people come here to enjoy the lake and take advantage of the surrounding hiking trails. Lakeside pathways are open for walking, cycling, and rollerblading. Those looking to cool off will appreciate the abundance of watersport equipment available to rent, including kayaks, paddleboards, water bicycles, yachts, and pedal boats. In true Vegas fashion, most of these activities offer neon options with illuminating boards and gear. It's a fun option for a Vegas summer night. Lake Las Vegas also offers flyboarding, an overwater obstacle course, and the only Cable Park Pass in Las Vegas. Using the overwater cable, visitors can tube, wakeboard, kneeboard, and waterski.
Before visiting, call ahead to confirm the hours and availability for your desired watersport rental, since some activities only operate during the summer season. Kayak, electric boats, and paddleboards are available for year-round rentals. Additional information can be found in the link below.

I am human, and I shot the sky.
Blood poured from its wound, but I didn’t mind.
Since the sky is not human, it feels nothing.
People move, and scream out, but it didn’t die.
It has not head, nor heart, nor lungs, I find.
Looking into its air, it cannot even sing.
I am human, and I stabbed the earth.
It cried tears of oil, and it shook.
I laughed, because it could not fight back.
It is not human, and was not given birth,
by a father and a mother from a bossom it took.
No matter at all, for a soul it did lack.
I am human, and I suffocated another human.
A human of whom is less human than I.
He or She flailed until final moments of rest.
Since lesser humanity applies; I knew not man nor woman.
the not-so-quite-person struggled, and tried to fly.
In the end, I realize that my decision was best.
I am human, and I killed myself.
Jumped off of a skyscrapper, and now I write,
line after line of this rhythmic verse.
Fall to the ground, scrape my pieces of of the shelf.
Maybe I’ll flap my wings, and attempt flight.
No, I think I’ll scribble this unti— | <urn:uuid:c667b676-a247-4cbb-837c-430b353b726a> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | https://youaremuted.com/2020/05/15/shoot/ | 2020-09-27T16:47:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600400283990.75/warc/CC-MAIN-20200927152349-20200927182349-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.959894 | 306 |

Eddie Izzard's famous bit from his live show 'Circle' (2000). Yeah, it's been done in Lego, but what the hell, let's give it a go anyway... :) Not suitable for children, due to the amount of f*cking swearing in it. Just so you know.

Even though most of what we hear about thinning hair and baldness is from males, women actually make up 40% of the American hair loss sufferers. Not to mention, the baldness gene is a sex-linked trait passed along the X-chromosome from generation to generation. Men have the pleasure of blaming mom’s for their baldness, whereas women have to inherit two X-chromosomes and both have to hold the baldness gene for a woman to express the recessive condition.
Now that the genetics lesson is over, let’s discuss some ways to counteract the effects of thinning and balding hair. We all know the tricks – sometimes they work – most of the time they don’t.
Whether we are blowing our hair upside down, using HUGE curlers, applying raw egg and beer to our hair, or harsh chemicals, women all want the same thing: FULL HAIR.
If your genes have caused your hair to thin out, you might want to consider the full Keranique line. One of the great things genetics has left me with is a full head of hair, however, no matter how thick it is, there are definitely times where it appears lifeless and flat.
If you are like me, then I would recommend trying the Keranique Fortifying Mousse ($20 USD). It makes your hair smooth, easier to brush, and full of volume. Applied to towel dried hair before you apply heat (blow dry, curling iron, or flat iron), my hair felt amazing afterwards. It’s specially formulated to it won’t make your hair feel stiff once the body is added.
A perfect product for someone trying to add volume to their hair or needing extra volume for a special occasion. You can purchase these products either from the Keranique website or HSN.
What do you currently do to add volume to your hair when it is less than perfect?

What’s a typical day at Grace House like?
Grace House now has five teachers caring for the kids, two in the morning and three in the afternoon. [Carla, Joice, Rosa, Andresa (Volunteer), Vandreina (volunteer), Eliane (not pictured), and Ana Carla (not pictured)]
Each morning, 40 kids between the ages of 2 and 12 arrive. Thirty of them study outside on the patio while another ten study inside in one of the classrooms. Starting at 7am, the kids begin arriving and we start class at 8am. We begin with prayer, singing, dancing, followed by varios activities for the kids. Some of the kids bring activities and homework from their school and we help them with those.
We teach Bible stories and we talk about manners, how to respect your neighbor, classmates, your parents, and most importantly how to please and be thankful to God every day.
At 9:30, we serve a snack and then various other activities for the day. Around 11, some of the kids go home [to get ready for school in the afternoon] and around 22 stay for lunch.
Carla is in charge of the lunch and cleaning responsibilities. Joice and I (Rosa) help with those responsibilities until around 12 or 12:30 when they are complete. Carla remains the rest of the afternoon.
For the afternoon session, 40 more children arrive, 30 remain outside in the patio area for their activities while an additional 10 are inside with Ana Carla for tutoring. Some of the children arrive as early as 12:30 because they have nowhere else to go after they attend school in the mornings while their parent/guardian works.
We begin our afternoon session at 1:30 like we do with our morning session with prayer, music, and dancing. Between 2:30-3:15 we provide various activities until my daughter Vandreina leaves to go sell candy at the local schools to help with the expenses of Grace House. When she returns, the kids are served a snack and the afternoon activities continue.
Two days a week, on Thursday and Friday, we have play days where we plan special activities with them. On some Fridays we take the kids on field trips to explore and do outside activities. The kids always have a great time playing and we are sure to bring snacks and plenty of water. It’s very gratifying to see each of their smiles and bright eyes when they’re are playing and having such a great time.
How are the kids doing?
We have many children that, after joining us at Grace House, have learned to pray, even becoming examples to their parents.
Most of the children have a lot of needs. There are two specifically named “M” and “L” that have very specific and great needs. We ask that our brothers and sisters be praying for them.
We are so thankful and happy that we have many children that have grown a lot since being here. Many have learned to read but most importantly they are learning to pray. This is the most gratifying thing for us. Their parents even share with us that they have seen the huge importance of God in our lives. Just the other day, the grandmother of one of the children came and shared with us that not long ago she went to lie down. Her little granddaughter “T” asked her what was wrong and she explained that she had a bad headache. Immediately her granddaughter asked if she could pray for her and told her that Auntie Rosa had said that when we experience suffering we need to pray and ask the Lord to help us. Then she put her little hands on her grandmother’s head and began to pray. Her grandmother shared with us that the pain immediately subsided.
Stories like this encourage us to continue strong in the work here with these kids so that we can continue to teach the great love that Jesus has for his children.
My own granddaughter who is only 16 months old spends only a few days at Grace House a week and she is already learning to pray and dance to the children’s songs we sing about Jesus.
Seeing these children singing and dancing, praising Christ, makes me so full of joy.
We ask that you continue to pray for more strength and faith to continue. That we may be able to help these kids grow in the knowledge of God and His love for us. Also pray for us as we help them with their school studies.
Thank you to everyone who prays for us! May God bless each one of you!

Synergy Multi-Academy Trust comprises ten Norfolk schools serving children between the ages of 2 and 18. Our schools work collaboratively together to raise standards and provide education of the highest possible standard, offering the best of opportunities for pupils. The Trust was initially established in 2015. We believe that all of our schools have strengths and areas to develop, and that all can improve through sharing expertise and wisdom. The Trust understands that there will be excellent practice in each school, and that every school will be able to contribute to the development of the Trust as a whole.
Please ensure that children arrive promptly each day. The school day begins at 8:45am. Pupils who arrive later than this must report to the office where they complete a form stating the reason for lateness.
The school should always be informed of the reason that a child is absent from school by 9:30am. This may be in writing or by telephone. On the first day that your child returns after any absence please send in a letter to the class teacher. Parents whose child is absent with no explanation, will receive a text message asking for them to contact the school with a reason for the absence. Persistent absences and/or lateness will be reported to the attendance officer.
All family holidays should be taken during the school holidays. The Government legislation states that from 01.09.2013 “Headteachers may not grant any leave of absence during term time unless there are exceptional circumstances. Headteachers should determine the number of school days a child can be away fr om school if the leave is granted”. | <urn:uuid:73e43ba7-75d7-4434-acef-b07cf54d09ba> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.astleyprimary.org.uk/for-parents-carers/attendance/ | 2020-09-29T01:05:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401617641.86/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928234043-20200929024043-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.955155 | 326 |

This is the Friday website review edition of the Daily Golden Nugget. For this week's review, I'm heading over to South Burlington, VT in search for my retail jeweler review candidate.
I entered the search phrase "jewelers in south burlington vt" into Google and was given this result:
After a quick scan of the SERP, the store After Midnight Jewelers stands out. They have the top business listing, the first organic listing, and their Facebook and Yelp pages also attract my attention.
This is their web address:
And this is what it looked like when I landed on their home page:
(click to enlarge)
Other than a slight display issue with their top menu, their website was simple and attractive. It's the minimalistic design and the high quality photos that make it attractive. The same design with poor quality photos would probably have less appeal.
After a little investigation, I figured out that the hero photo on their home page was taken at Burlington Bay of Lake Champlain on the border of Vermont and New York. Undoubtedly, this photo was taken at a recognizable location that the local customers would recognize. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a popular engagement spot as well.
Since the design of this website is pretty good, I'll spend this entire review analyzing the SEO of the site.
Navigating over to the About Us page ( http://aftermidnightjewelers.com/about/ ), I found multiple use of the Header 1 tag/the H1 HTML programming tag as shown in this screen grab:
You can reference back to this previous Nugget for more details about Header Tag usage, but to explain it briefly, you should only use the H1 tag on any web page one time. You can use the H2 tag a few times, and the H3 tag a few times, but the H1 tag should be reserved for the most important headline.
As a general guideline, any time you feel compelled to have multiple H1 tags, it's a good indication that you probably should be splitting that page into multiple pages instead. The About Us page on After Midnight could be split into an About page, Staff page, and Testimonials page.
Notice that the "Sign Up for our Newsletter" is set as a H2 tag. Since this appears on every page I would have set it as an H3 or maybe even an H4.
Among the SEO community, it's generally agreed upon that the H1 headline of the page should closely match, or exactly match the individual page titles. Here's the page title for After Midnight's About Us page shown as HTML code:
Here it is typed out:
After Midnight Jewelers - Vermont's Engagement Ring & Fine Jewelry StoreAbout Us | After Midnight Jewelers - Vermont's Engagement Ring & Fine Jewelry Store
The first part of that title, this part, "After Midnight Jewelers - Vermont's Engagement Ring & Fine Jewelry Store," is the default title for every page of the site. That's an overuse of the same page title, and that's quite the spammy practice now.
The second part of the title, this part, "About Us," is the only part of the page title that changes from page to page. However, notice how there's a space missing between the word "Store" from the first part and the word "About" from the second part. That's not a typo in my Nugget; that's some sloppy work by the SEO person who wasn't paying attention to proper setup. It's like that on all the pages.
The third part of the title is similar to the first part, "After Midnight Jewelers - Vermont's Engagement Ring & Fine Jewelry Store." Repeating yourself in the page title is simply spammy.
Just to show you the similarity, here's the page title from the Appraisals page:
After Midnight Jewelers - Vermont's Engagement Ring & Fine Jewelry StoreAppraisals | After Midnight Jewelers - Vermont's Engagement Ring & Fine Jewelry Store
Moving on now to the meta descriptions on their website. The meta description isn't used by search engines as a ranking signal but rather, it's a good way to convince someone to click on your web page. Consider it the sales copy that invites people to click on you.
Even though After Midnight Jewelers is using WordPress and a really good SEO plug-in called Yoast SEO, they chose to omit setting up their meta descriptions. I can understand this since it takes a lot of time to write a good 150 character description of every page on your website. Since they took shortcuts on the page titles, it almost makes sense that they would not bother writing the page descriptions.
In the absence of meta descriptions, Google will attempt to write their own based on the written content they find on your page. Leaving your descriptions up to Google is bad advertising practice because they will never get it right. This is akin to paying for a billboard and only supplying a photograph to the billboard company and asking them to surprise you with a random headline without your approval.
With these 3 simple SEO issues I've identified, there's a good chance that one of the many other jewelers in South Burlington, VT could outrank After Midnight. The bottom line is that you shouldn't rely on nice looking websites or automated SEO practices. Correct SEO always requires an objective point of view and a bit of manual labor.
FTC Notice: I randomly choose this website and won't be telling the retailer jeweler that I'm doing a review. Unless someone else tells them, they will only find out about this review if they examine their Google Analytics and Google Webmaster Tools. I'm not doing this to solicit business from them, but rather as an educational exercise for everyone. This review is completely impartial and all my comments are listed in the order that I discovered them. | <urn:uuid:b3c22e5b-a477-431c-9f12-59c3ed49f4d4> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.jwag.biz/newsletters/2014/11/07/after-midnight-jewelers-website-review.html | 2020-09-29T02:08:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401617641.86/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928234043-20200929024043-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.944163 | 1,214 |
I don’t know exactly what sequence of updates caused the proliferation of the 80246002 errors when attempting to run Windows Updates, but it appears to be a fairly wide-spread problem on Windows 7 machines.
The problem manifests itself as an inability to manually search for Windows Updates. If you are on a domain that uses a Software Update Server, this check is done by selecting the “Check Online for Updates from Microsoft Update” link at the bottom of the Windows Updates window. Typically the manual check will quickly fail with the error code 80246002.
Searching the net for a solution comes up with a few suggestions, most commonly to change your DNS server to 188.8.131.52 (Google’s DNS) and try again. This does seem work to allow for updates to be downloaded immediately, but it doesn’t solve the problem going forward (you will have to do it again the next time you want to check for updates), and you can’t access any of your local domain resources until you switch it back.
A co-worker and I discussed this problem yesterday, and she worked out a procedure that has corrected the problem on all of the PCs we have tried it on so far:
- Open Windows Update from the Control Panel
- Click on “Change Settings” on the left hand side of the screen
- Uncheck “Give me updates for Microsoft products and check for new optional Microsoft software when I update windows”
- Restart the PC
- Optional – I suggest completing the rest of this process and seeing if it works before you do this step, as this will eliminate your Windows Update history. If after completing the procedure you still receive errors when attempting to check for updates, try the following to remove the directory Windows Update uses to store the items it downloads (It will get recreated when the WUAUSERV service is restarted):
- Open a command prompt as administrator (Click Start, type CMD, right click on the “cmd” entry at the top of the start menu and select “Run As Administrator”)
- Run the command “net stop wuauserv”
- Run the command “CD %WINDIR%”
- Run the command “RENAME SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution_Old”
- Run the command “net start wuauserv”
- Open Windows Update and check for updates. Install any updates other than the language packs.
- When prompted, restart the PC
- Open Windows Update again and click on the “Find Out More” link which talks about getting updates for other Microsoft products. This will take you to the Microsoft Update page.
- Install the Microsoft Update client and check for updates.
After that, manually checking for updates seems to work normally on the machines we have tested. It seems that reverting back to Windows Update and then opting back in to Microsoft Update repairs the problem with the update client on the PC.

Extermin-ice? Dalek-icious? TARD-ICE? I am struggling to come up with the right pun to describe these Doctor Who Ice Cube trays to start off. Lets just say that these are as cold as a Daleks heart and move on.
Although, this silicone mold is not just for the freezer, no no, it is both freezer and oven safe so not only can you freeze yourself some TARDIS and Dalek ice cubes, you make some delicious Dalek cupcakes, or chocolates. Maybe even some scrumptious Dalek jellies if you so please, or some cute little Dalek candles if you are particularly clever. Whatever floats your boat, or TARDIS, these Doctor Who ice cube trays are a great way to start any geeky party. | <urn:uuid:437cdf7d-1a28-4109-ae63-9d09a1249964> | CC-MAIN-2020-40 | http://www.twentysixdollars.com/2013/07/28/doctor-who-ice-cubes/ | 2020-09-28T23:57:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-40/segments/1600401617641.86/warc/CC-MAIN-20200928234043-20200929024043-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.92293 | 165 |
