We hit the gym to improve our bodies, but what can you do to improve or maintain the health of your mind? Here at Project Helping, we design volunteer projects with the key elements to improve mental wellness. Whether you’ve been struggling for awhile or you just want to foster good mental health, giving back can help you feel better. We hand select all of our volunteer projects by carefully working with our non-profit partners to include these key 3 elements. First, we’ve found it’s important to break down the barriers to getting involved. We build unique relationships with our nonprofit partners to make it ridiculously easy to find and sign up for our volunteer events. Plus, we do the majority of the registration work for our volunteers. We are continually trying to improve upon this barrier, simplifying both finding and signing up for events. Next, we ensure every volunteer project is hands on and engaging. This is important because the more clearly the volunteer can see the impact of their work, the more it improves mental wellness and self worth. By being closely involved, volunteers often report an increased sense of self esteem, gratitude and peace of mind after just one volunteer project! Finally, each volunteer project is also carefully designed to have a social setting. The social setting offers people an opportunity to be part of a community of people who empathize with the effects of mental health challenges and want to promote mental wellbeing. This type of meaningful interaction empowers our volunteers to build lasting, supportive relationships. Building a support network is an incredibly powerful way to combat the isolation of depression. But you don’t need to be in the “critical danger” zone to reap the benefits of connecting with peers in a healthy, meaningful way. Volunteering often gets looked at as a zero-sum equation, with whomever is being served being the beneficiary of the work. However, there’s a physiological reaction that happens in the brain when you help other people, releasing biochemicals like serotonin and dopamine, making you feel happier and more at ease. Regardless of how you volunteer, it is important to keep in mind that volunteering need not simply be an altruistic game. Rather, it can be an excellent way to boost your mood, gain perspective and foster meaningful relationships.

The Pacific Northwest is home to the highest concentration of waterfalls in the entire world. Some of the most impressive waterfalls and cascades are found in the steep canyons of the Columbia River Gorge. Living in southwest Washington, I have the unique opportunity to spend a great deal of time exploring these lush and scenic canyons.

It’s almost always practice-oriented but theory-led. Teaching is about showing, not telling; about giving students and others things to think with rather than things to know. And if our teaching is to be genuinely practice-oriented, working with case studies and doing projects and placements are essential. But practice is not just what people do: it’s also how they think, and the point is to keep thinking and doing in balance. At least part of this thinking should be critical and sociological, which means that social theory should be a key resource for students and practitioners alike.

Named Dallas Mavericks following a name the team contest. Other finalists from the 4,600 entries were Wranglers and Express. 1980/81: The Dallas Mavericks owned by Donald Carter who paid a $12 million expansion team takes the floor with a young inexperienced team, by passing aging stars like Earl Monroe, Rick Barry, and Pete Maravich for players with less then three years experience. However, things did not go smoothly in the draft when top pick Kiki Vandeweghe refused to sign forcing a trade to the Denver Nuggets. The Mavericks would get off to a rousing start when the beat the San Antonio Spurs, who once played in the ABA as the Dallas Chaparrals, in their first game. However, the Mavs would win just five of their next 45 games on the way to an awful 15-67 season. 1981/82: The Mavericks three draft picks Mark Aguirre (with the first overall pick), Rolando Blackman (9th), and Jay Vincent (24th) become key starters right away, making the Mavs an exciting team to watch. However the rookie would get off to a slow start as the Mavericks won just one of their first 14 games. However, by January the team was playing better, putting together a modest four game winning streak. However, in the end the Mavericks would still struggle to finish with a 28-54 record. However, they would manage to escape last place. 1982/83: The third year Mavericks continued to improve actually being in playoff contention most of the first half of the season. However, the young Mavs would struggle down the stretch which included a seven game losing streak that ended their playoff hopes as they finished in 4th place with a 38-44 record. 1983/84: The Mavericks improvement continued as they got off to a fast start winning ten of their first 13 games, on the way to their first playoff appearance which they earned by finishing in second place in the Midwest Division with a record of 43-39, as Mark Aguirre finished secpnd in scoring with 30.6 ppg. In their first taste of the playoffs the Mavericks played a tight five game series with the Seattle Supersonics emerging victorious in overtime of Game 5 by a score of 105-104. However, in the second round the Mavericks would be shot down by the Los Angeles Lakers four games to one. 1984/85: For the fourth year in a row the Mavericks improve over their previous season as the Mavericks lead the league in three pointers and fewest turnovers, during a third place finish in which the Mavs finished with a 44-38 record.

However, the Blazers would roar back to win three straight games to eliminate the Mavericks in four games. 1985/86: The Mavericks add another piece to its growing talent pool with the selection of Detlef Schrempf in the draft. In a year Dallas played host to the All-Star game the Mavericks were a high scoring squad average 115.3 ppg the second highest in the NBA, as they made the playoffs for the 3rd year in a row with a 44-38 record. In the playoffs the Mavericks would hit a sweet note as the eliminated the Utah Jazz in four games. However, in the second round they would be knocked off by the Los Angeles Lakers again falling six games. However, four of the games were decided by four points or less. 1986/87: The Mavericks had finally arrived winning their first Division Title with a solid record of 55-27. Once again the Mavs took care of the ball as the led the NBA with the fewest turnovers for the fifth year in a row. In the playoffs the Mavericks got off to an incredible start as they slaughtered the Seattle Supersonics 151-129 in Game 1. However, the wheels would suddenly come off as the Mavs who had not lost more then two straight games, all year lost the next three games as their season was ended in the first round. Following the season Dick Motta the only coach in Mavs history would suddenly resign. 1987/88: With new Coach John MacLeod the Mavericks remained one of the most exciting young teams in the NBA, as they battled all season with Denver Nuggets for the Midwest Division Tilt. However, the Mavs would fall one game short with a solid 53-29 record. In the playoffs the Mavericks would shoot down the Houston Rockets in four games, before getting revenge on the Nuggets in six games to advance to their first Conference Final. In the Western Finals the Mavs gave the Los Angeles Lakers all they could handle before falling in Game 7 by a score of 117-102. 1988/89: After five straight playoff appearances the Mavericks hit a speed bump and begin to unravel. In what started out as an injury-plagued season the Mavericks would quickly fall apart on and off the court. First Roy Tarpley was suspended infinitely in January for violating the league's anti drug policy. Then they started to trade away top stars like Mark Aguirre to the Detroit Pistons for Adrian Dantley who refused to even play for the Mavs, even though he would eventually show up after an eight day holdout. In another questionable move the Mavs would trade Detlef Schrempf to the Indiana Pacers for Herb Williams. The Mavs would finally bottom out in March with a 12-game losing streak as they finished in fourth place with a 38-44 record. 1989/90: After an awful season the Mavericks would bounce back to make the playoffs with a 47-35 record good enough for third place in the Midwest Division. However, things would not all go smoothly for the Mavericks. First Roy Tarpley would find himself in hot water again as he is arrested in November for Driving under the Influence of Drugs. Shortly there after Coach John MacLeod is fired and replaced by Richie Adubato. After finishing the season on a high note the Mavericks would make a quick exit in the playoffs as they are swept in three straight games by the Portland Trailblazers. 1990/91: The Mavericks troubles would start early as Fat Lever and Roy Tarpley are both lost early in the season with season ending knee injuries. While on the injured list Tarpley again would be suspended for substance abuse by the NBA. Meanwhile the Mavericks just could not put anything together as they finished worst then the two expansion teams (Orlando Magic and Minnesota Timberwolves) while finishing sixth place in the Midwest Division with a record of 28-54. 1991/92: Prior to the start of the season Roy Tarpley banned from the NBA for violating the league's substance abuse policy for a third time. Fat Lever misses most of the season again, as the Mavericks begin to regret acquiring him from the Denver Nuggets for two first round draft picks. With aging stars and injuries the Mavs would struggle all season on the way to finishing in fifth place with a 22-60 record. 1992/93: The dismantling of the Mavericks continues as Fat Lever misses the entire season with a knee injury and Rolando Blackman is traded to the New York Knicks. In addition top draft pick Jim Jackson held out more then half of the season. This would all spell the recipe for disaster as the Mavericks flirted all season with the worst record in NBA history as they stood at 4-57 through 61 games. However, the signing of Jackson on March 3rd, coupled with the announcement that Quinn Buckner would take over as coach the next season, gave the team the emotional boost necessary to avoid infamy. In the final 21 contests Jackson helped the team to a 7-14 record, including two straight victories to close out the year and finish at 11-71, avoiding infamy by just two games. 1993/94: Despite the addition of Kentucky star Jamal Mashburn from the NBA draft the Mavericks misery continued as they lost 23 of their first 24 games on the way to 3-40 record at the end of January, as the team rejected Quinn Buckner's disciplinary coaching style. The Mavs would go on to narrowly avoid history again finishing with an awful 13-69 record. Following the season Coach Quinn Buckner is fired. 1994/95: With the hopes of repeating history the Mavericks bring back original Coach Dick Motta to restore a team that had complied an awful 24-140 record over the last two years. The Mavs select Cal guard Jason Kidd with their top draft pick. Kidd would make an immediate impact as he shared Rookie of the Year honors with Grant Hill of the Detroit Pistons while averaging 11.7 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 7.7 assists on the year. With Kidd in the backcourt and Jamal Mashburn and Jim Jackson the Mavs had a formidable young foundation as they finished in fifth place with a record of 36-46, which was 12 more wins then their previous two season combined. 1995/96: The Mavericks would take a step backward as Jamal Mashburn goes down with a knee injury 18 games into the season. Meanwhile Jason Kidd and Jim Jackson had trouble getting along as the Mavericks finished with a terrible 26-56 record. Following the season Dick Motta would be fired as the Mavs are sold by Donald Carter to Ross Perot Jr. 1996/97: With new Coach Jimmy Clemons the Mavericks struggles continued, while the Three J's (Jason Kidd, Jamal Mashburn, and Jimmy Jackson) continued to squabble on and off the court rumors had they were al fighting over super diva Toni Braxton. With the team not showing any improvement it was decided to scrap the team and start form scratch by season's end Kidd, Jackson, and Mashburn would all be gone, as they are dealt in separate deals to the Phoenix Suns, New Jersey Nets, and Miami Heat. The Mavs would go on to finish the season with a 24-58 record. 1997/98: The Mavericks continue to struggle as General Manager Don Nelson takes over as Coach, during a 20-62 season. However, despite the poor record the Mavs have a knack for giving some of the NBA's elite team a hard time, as they beat the Seattle Supersonics, New York Knicks, and Indiana Pacers. However, all the wins were overshadow by a rousing comeback victory over the Chicago Bulls, going on a 17-2 run to force overtime where they won 104-97. During the season, former Los Angels Lakers and Phoenix Suns star A.C. Green would make history, as he became the NBA's all-time iron man with 978 consecutive games played. 1998/99: In a season shortened by a four month lockout the young Mavericks begin to show some promise by posting their first winning record at home in ten years at 15-10. However the Mavs were still a mile away from the playoffs as they finished in fifth place with a 19-31 record. 1999/00: The Mavericks change ownership again as internet mogul Mark Cuban purchases the team. In a promotional move Dennis Rodman is brought in. However, with his best days behind him, the Worm would be gone after just 12 games. The Mavs would struggle early on the way to their 11th straight year without the playoffs. However, as Dirk Nowitzki continued to improve the Mavs finished the season strong posting a 30-18 record over the second half including a 9-1 record in April, as the Mavs finished with a 40-42 record their best since 1990. 2000/01: In the final year of basketball at the Reunion Arena the Mavericks finally end their ten year playoff drought by finishing in third Place with a 53-29 record. Along the way the Mavs over came the adversity of losing Coach Don Nelson for a while as he underwent treatment for prostate cancer. In his absence the Mavericks were turned over to an experienced group of assistant coaches led by Nelson's son Donnie nelson. Meanwhile Dirk Nowitzki became the first Maverick to receive all-NBA honors when he was named to the third team. In the playoffs the Mavs would drop the first two games in Utah to the Jazz. However, they would be rejuvenated when they came home to Reunion, as they went on to win the next three games and advance to the next round. However, in the second Round they would fall in five games to the San Antonio Spurs. 2001/02: Early on in the Mavericks first season at the American Airlines Centers the focus was on Maverick owner Mark Cuban and his continues battles with NBA officials, as his fines reached seven figures. In one memorable incident Cuban managed a Dairy Queen for day after saying he would not allow NBA director of officiating to manage one of the famous ice cream chain's stores. While Cuban was a headache for the heads of the NBA, he was a true fans man, often wearing just a Mavericks t-shirt at games while rooting for the team like the average fan. In addition he would offer up several promotions that made Mavs basketball the place to be. However, promotions are not enough you also need a good team to draw fans and the Mavericks found themselves among the NBA's elite all year battling all season for the Midwest Division before falling one game short with a franchise best 57-25 record. In the playoffs the Mavs stayed hot as Dirk Nowitzki collected 42 rebounds as the Mavericks went through the Minnesota Timberwolves like a buzzsaw sweeping them in three straight games. However, in the second round the Mavs would be shot down by the Sacramento Kings in six games. 2002/03: The Mavericks would come flying out the gate to start the season winning their first 14 games, on the way to an impressive 17-1 start. However, as the season wore on the Mavs weakness on defense would catch up with them as the San Antonio Spurs began to chip away at a seven game deficit, eventually catching the Mavericks at the end of the season. However, the Mavericks would still end up with league's best record at 60-22, but they would lose a tiebreaker to the Spurs for the division title and the top seed in the playoffs. Facing the Portland Trailblazers in the playoffs the Mavericks once again got off to a fast start winning the first 3 games. However, under a new playoff format the Mavs still needed to win a game to advance. Getting that 4th win would prove difficult as the Blazers won the next three games easily to force a seventh game. However, the Mavericks would avoid becoming the first team to blow a 3-0 series lead with a late 12-0 run in Game 7 to win 107-95. Facing the Sacramento Kings in the second round the Mavericks were thoroughly beaten in Game 1 at home 124-113. However, the Mavs would bounce back to even the series the next night, as Kings MVP Chris Webber suffered a knee injury. The Mavs would take advantage of Webbers absence and beat the Kings 141-137 in a Game 3 shoot out in Sacramento. The Kings and Mavs would alternate wins in the next three games as the series went to a seventh game. In Game 7 in Dallas the Mavericks pulled out a 112-99 win to set up an all Texas Western Conference Finals. The Mavs would get the Conference Finals started in style by stunning the Spurs on the road with a 113-110 win as the Mavs sank a record 49 of 50 free throws. However, the Mavs would lose Game 2 119-106, but more costly was the loss of Dirk Nowitzki to a sprained knee. Without Nowitzki the Mavs would drop the next two games at home as they feel behind 3-1 in the series. However the Mavs would not go down without a fight as they stole Game 5 in San Antonio and were poised to force a seventh game as they held a 69-56 lead entering the 4th Quarter. However, they would end up being buried in a barrage of three pointers by Steve Kerr as the Spurs outscored the Mavs 34-9 in the final period to go to the NBA Finals. 2003/04: After just missing out on a trip to the NBA Finals the Mavericks added more fire power by acquiring Antwan Jamison in a trade with the Golden State Warriors and Antoine Walker in a trade with the Boston Celtics. With the new players the Mavs would get off to a slow start as Coach Don Nelson had a tough time trying to work everyone into the rotation. On the road the Mavericks struggled badly posting a terrible 16-25 record. However at home they were unbeatable posting a franchise best 36-5 record at the American Airlines Center as they posted a solid 52-30 record finishing in third place in the competitive Midwest Division. Leading the way for the Mavericks was Dirk Nowitzki who led the team in scoring and rebounding with 21.8 ppg and 8.7 rebounds per game. While Antwan Jamison gained NBA hardware by being named NBA's 6th Man of the year for averaging 14.8 ppg off the bench. In the playoff the Mavericks would face the Sacramento Kings in a rematch of their intense second round series from 2003. The Mavs would get off on the wrong foot, losing the first two games on the road. The Mavericks would rebound in Game 3 as the series shifted to Dallas winning 104-79. However the would lose Game 4 in heartbreaking fashion as Steve Nash's last second shot bounced off the rim in a 94-92 loss, as the Kings went on to win the series in five games. Following the season the Mavericks roster would go through a shake up as Nash signed a free agent deal with the Phoenix Suns. To replace Nash the Mavericks acquired Jason Terry in a trade with the Atlanta Hawks for Antoine Walker, while 6th Man Antwan Jamison was dealt to the Washington Wizards for Jerry Stackhouse. 2004/05: Despite the loss of Steve Nash, the Mavericks remained one of the best teams in the Western Conference as they got off to a strong start as Jason Terry acquired in a trade from the Atlanta Hawks for Antoine Walker averaged 5.4 assists per game. However feeling something was lacking the Mavericks would land Keith Van Horn for stretch run. The deal gave them a solid 6th man off the bench as Van Horn averaged 12.2 ppg in 29 games in Dallas. Meanwhile Don Nelson would step down and hand the coaching reigns to Avery Johnson, because in select game the team played better under Johnson when Nelson let him run the team. The change would be a boost for the Mavericks, who won their last nine games to finish in second place in the Southwest Division with a 58-24 record. In the playoffs the Mavericks faced the Houston Rockets in a first round Texas Tussle. Despite having their strong finish the Mavs stumbled when the series started dropping the first two games at home. Staring an 0-3 deficit in the face the Mavs staged an amazing 4th Quarter comeback going on a 20-0 run in the 4th Quarter to win Game 3 in Houston 106-102. The Mavericks would keep the momentum rolling winning Game 4 and Game 5 to take control of the series. After losing Game 6 in Houston, the series went to decisive seventh game, where Jason Terry and Josh Howard dominated the game as the Mavs won convincingly 116-76. In the second Round the Mavericks faced the Phoenix Suns led by Steve Nash who won the NBA MVP leading the Suns to the best record in the NBA. IN a back and forth showdown of two of the NBA's highest scoring teams the series would go back and forth through the first four games with both teams cracking 100 in each game. In Game 5 it would be Steve Nash that would knock the Mavericks on the ropes as he scored 34 points in a 114-108 win for the Suns, needing a win at home in Game 6 to force a seventh game the Mavericks would battle the Suns into overtime where Nash again haunted his former team leading the comeback that forced Overtime and continuing his hot hand in OT as he scored 39 points in a 130-126 win to advance to the Western Conference Finals. 2005/06: After falling just short of making the Conference Finals the Mavericks returned hoping to finally beat their nemesis from San Antonio and take the next step forward, and thanks to continued strong defense they would battle the Spurs for the top record in the West all season, as neither team got a big lead all season. However, in the end the Spurs would get the best of the Mavericks in the regular season as the Mavs franchise best 60-22 record had them fall three games short of the division title, and best overall record in the West. Despite falling short the Mavericks great season would earn Avery Johnson Coach of the Year honors. In the playoffs the Mavericks would get off to a fast start as they made quick work of the Memphis Grizzlies winning four straight without breaking a sweat to set up another second round showdown with the San Antonito Spurs. The highly anticipated Lone Star State showdown would get off to a fantastic start as the Spurs edged the Mavs 87-85. Game 2 would be a different story as the Mavericks evened the series with an easy 113-91 win, pulling away in the second quarter when they outscored the Spurs 32-16, as the Mavs had four players with 19 or more points. As the series shifted to Dallas the intensity picked up as the lead seesawed several times in the 4th Quarter before Dirk Nowitzki nailed two free throws with 7.5 seconds left to give the Mavs a 104-103 victory. Game 4 would be even tighter as the two heavyweights battled into overtime tied at 111-111, as Jason Terry played the role of hero tying the game for the Mavericks. In Overtime it was Terry again who got the Mavericks going hitting the first points and helping Dallas keep the lead with a pair of jumpers in a 123-118 victory that gave the Mavericks a 3-1 series lead. Game 5 back in San Antonio would be just as exciting as the Mavericks were unable to contain Tim Duncan who scored 36 points and had 12 rebounds to keep the Spurs alive with a 98-97 win, as Jason Terry got suspended for the next game after delivering a low blow to ex-teammate Michael Finley in the closing seconds. With a chance to close the series out at home, the Mavericks clearly missed Terry as the best efforts of Dirk Nowitzki who had 26 points and 21 rebounds could not stop the Spurs from forcing a seventh game with a 91-86 win. Facing losing a 3-1 lead and losing to the Spurs again the Mavericks went to San Antonio with a chip on their shoulder as Owner Mark Cuban continued to draw criticism for his blogging during the playoffs on his personal website Blog Maverick. Surprisingly the Mavericks made it look easy at first building a 20 point lead, as Terry returned and scored 27 points, but the pesky defending champs battled back and forced overtime again. However it would be Nowitzki who would play the role of hero making the big shots at the end as the Mavericks won in overtime 119-111. After their tough battle against the Spurs the Mavs faced the Phoenix Suns in the Western Conference Finals and fell behind early losing the opener 121-118 as the Suns scored 30 points in the 4th Quarter against the tired Mavs. The Mavericks would rebound the next two games as Dirk Nowitzki led the team with two double-doubles. After losing Game 4 in Phoenix, the Mavericks took control of the series for good with a 117-101 win in Game 5 as Nowitzki scored 50 points. In Game 6 the Mavericks got off to a slow start as they trailed at halftime 51-39. The Mavericks would start to crawl back in the 3rd Quarter as they pulled to within three points. From there on it would be all Mavericks as they scored 40 points in the 4th Quarter to pull away to a 102-93 win that sent them to the NBA Finals for the first time in franchise history. 2006 NBA Finals: In the NBA Finals against the Miami Heat the Mavericks got off to a flying start winning the first two games at home easily as Jason Terry and Dirk Nowitzki continued their monster postseasons. Game 3 in Miami looked like more of the same as a 13-point lead midway through the 4th Quarter had Dallas planning a victory parade. However, suddenly Dwyane Wade would get hot and lead the Heat to a miracle comeback with a 98-96 win. The Mavericks stunned by the Game 3 collapse played one of their worst games of the postseason two days later as the Heat tied the series with a 98-74 win, setting up Game 5 as the key game of the series. The game would also be the best of the entire series at it went back and forth with Jason Terry battling Dwyane Wade. As the Mavericks held a slim one point lead late in overtime Josh Howard was sent to the line with a chance to extend the lead. However, Howard missed both free throws setting up Wade to be the hero, as the Heat star was fouled in the final seconds of overtime. Wade would hit both shots to give the Heat a 101-100 lead, as Josh Howard mistakenly called a time out between free throws, forcing the Mavericks to go the length of the court to try a game winning shot, which they were unable to do as the Heat took a 3-2 series lead. Following the game Owner Mark Cuban found himself embroiled in more controversy as he was fined $250,000 for criticizing the officials, while Dirk was fined $5,000 for kicking the ball into the stands. Back in Dallas for Game 6 the Mavericks hoped to regain the momentum, but it was not meant to be as Wade scored a game high 36 points to lead the Heat to a NBA Title with a 95-92 victory. 2006/07: After their heart breaking loss in the NBA Finals there was a concern there would be a hangover when the season started as the Mavericks lost their first four games, as they struggled on both sides of the ball. Facing the Phoenix Suns on the road the Mavericks finally got things turned around with a 119-112 win, as Dirk Nowitzki scored a game high 35 points, that win would spark a 12-game winning streak as the Mavericks began an incredible stretch over the next four months where they would not lose games in a row. After a brief stretch where they lost 3 of five games in early December the Mavericks began another long winning streak, with 13 straight wins to bring their record to 27-7. After a 101-98 loss on the road to the Los Angeles Lakers, the Mavericks would win another eight straight as they took firm control of the Southwest Division. Following a 96-85 loss on January 25th, the Mavericks would fire up yet another extended winning streak as they would not lose again until March 11th, winning 17 straight games. In total since their 0-4 start the Mavericks would win 52 of their next 57 games. The Mavericks would go on to close the season with a 67-15 record as they won their first division championship in 20 years. The year would also bring individual accolades to Dirk Nowitzki who was named NBA MVP as he led the team with 24.6 ppg, and 8.9 rebounds per game. At 67-15 the Mavericks were heavy favorites as the playoffs began with everyone focusing on a future Western Conference Final against either the San Antonio Spurs or Phoenix Suns. However, nobody noticed the trap that was lying in wait in the first round against the Golden State Warriors who at 42-40 made their first playoff appearance in 13 years. The Warriors were coached by Don Nelson, who was at the helm for the Mavericks when things began to turn around 1997-2005, and was still there when most of the current Mavericks came to Dallas, and developed their style of play. If one did not realize how dangerous the Warriors were, one may only examine the Mavericks season, as they went 67-15, but lost all three games to the Warriors. When the playoff started it was the Warriors who dominated taking Game 1 in Dallas 97-85. The Mavs would bounce back in Game 2 evening the series with a 112-99 win. However as the series shifted to Oakland the Mavericks walked into a buzz saw, with the crowd helping to lift the Warriors to a 109-91 win in Game 3 and a 103-99 win in Game 4 to take a stunning 3-1 series lead. Led by Dirk Nowitzki who scored 30 points in Game 5, the Mavericks kept their hopes alive with a 118-112 victory. However, that Oakland buzz saw would get them again as the Warriors completed the stunning upset with a 111-86 win, as the Warriors broke the Mavs back with 36 points in the 3rd Quarter. 2007/08: Following their stunning first round exit the Mavericks again got off to a good start posting a 9-2 record in their first 11 games. However, problems were not hard to see as a three game losing streak demonstrated that the Mavs had some holes. As the New Year began the Mavericks embarked on a seven game winning streak, but in a highly competitive Western Conference the Mavericks were only in the middle of the pack of tightly bunched playoff contenders as the trade deadline approached. Hoping to pick up the pace on offense the Mavericks made a trade to re-acquire Jason Kidd,. The deal would quickly look like a dud as the Mavericks struggled against winning teams, posting a 3-11 record, as they actually lost ground on the Western Conference leaders. The Mavericks would end up finishing in fourth place in the Southwest Division with a 51-31 record as they entered the playoffs with the seventh seed. In the first round they would face the New Orleans Hornets. Despite strong games from Dirk Nowitzki in the first two games, the Mavericks were hammered twice and came home needing a win desperately down 0-2 in the series. With Nowitzki scoring 32 points, with 19 rebounds and six assists the Mavs were able to get a 97-87 win in Game 3. However, the Hornets proved too strong and despite two more solid games from Dirk Nowitzki the Mavericks were eliminated in the first round again, losing the series in five games. Following their quick exit, Coach Avery Johnson was dismissed, and replaced by Rick Carlise. 2008/09: Under new Coach Rick Carlise, the Mavericks looked to regain their spot among the elite teams in the Western Conference. However, they would get off to a rocky start, as they lost seven of their first nine games. In danger of dropping to 2-8, the Mavs rallied to beat the New York Knicks on the road 124-114 in overtime, as Dirk Nowitzki scored a game high 39 points. The win would be the start of a five game winning streak, as the Mavericks were able to get back to .500 as the first month of the season came to an end. In December the Mavericks would shoot above .500 heading in to the New Year. January would be another rough month for the Mavs as they posted an 8-7 record, suffering a four game game losing streak. While the Mavericks were well on the way to another fine season, they need a strong finish to assure themselves of avoiding the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round. By winning six of their final eight games the Mavericks would do just that, posting a 50-32 record, while finishing in third place to set up a showdown with the San Antonio Spurs. With Josh Howard scoring 25 points the Mavs got an early jump on the Spurs winning Game 1 on the road 105-97. After an ugly 105-84 loss in Game 2, the Mavs regained control of the series by turning the defensive screws into the Spurs, winning Game 3 in Dallas 88-67. The Mavs continued to frustrate the Spurs in Game 4, taking a commanding 3-1 series lead with a solid 99-90 win as the Mavericks balanced effort led by Josh Howard's 25 point game overcame a 43 point game from the Spurs Tony Parker. The Mavericks would go on to bounce the Spurs in five games, as they scored a 106-93 win in San Antonio to end the series. However, the Mavericks would run into a mountain in the next round as the Denver Nuggets quickly took control by winning the first three games. The Mavericks would win 119-117 as Dirk Nowitzki scored 44 points in Game 4 to avoid the sweep, but in the end the Nuggets proved to be too strong as they won the series in five games. 2009/10: After beating the San Antonio Spurs in the playoffs the Mavericks hoped they could take over control of the Southwest Division as they entered the season hoping to challenge for the Western Conference Title. In the season opener, the Mavs suffered a stunning setback losing to the Washington Wizards at home 102-91. However, they rebounded a few nights later to beat the Los Angeles Lakers on the road 94-80, as they got off to a solid start with 10 wins in their first 13 games. Over the next few months the Mavs mainly threaded water not going on a long winning streak and not going on a long losing streak. Two Mavericks Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Kidd made the Western Conference All-Star team with the game being played in nearby Cowboys Stadium, setting a new attendence record of 108,713 as the Eastern Conference won 141-139, with Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat claiming MVP honors. As the break approached the Mavs looked to get stronger acquiring Caron Butler, Brendan Haywood and DeShawn Stevenson from the Wizards for Josh Howard, Drew Gooden, James Singleton, and Quinton Ross. The deal paid dividends right away as the Mavericks posted a 13 game winning streak just after the break. While they slumped a bit at the end of March, the Mavs closed the season with a five game winning streak that helped them get the second seed in the West as they won their third division title with a record of 55-27. In the first round they faced the San Antonio Spurs in the playoffs again, this time they were the Southwest Division Champions. In the opener it was a strong performance from Dirk Nowitzki that led the way as the Mavs star Forward scored 36 points in a 100-94 win. However, in Game 2 the Spurs answered back winning 102-88. As the series shifted to San Antonio the Mavericks went cold losing both games 3 and 4 as the Spurs took a 3-1 series lead. In Game 5 they leaned on Caron Butler who scored 35 points with 11 rebounds to lead the way in a 103-81 win. However, it would not be enough as the Spurs won the series in six games with a 97-87 win. 2010/11: After another playoff disappointment, the Mavericks looked to improve in the middle as they sent Erick Dampier, Matt Carroll and Eduardo Najera to the Charlotte Bobcats for Tyson Chandler and Alexis Ajinca. The Mavericks would get off to a good start, as they won seven of their first nine games. After a two game losing streak, the Mavs would go on a 12 game winning streak; posting a 24-5 record in their first 29 games. However, the Mavericks good start was stalled as December came to an end as Dirk Nowitzki suffered a knee injury that would cause him to miss nine games. A few nights later the Mavericks would lose Caron Butler, who had been the team's leading scorer for the rest of the season with a season ending knee injury. The Mavericks would struggle in this stretch, losing posting a 3-10 record over a 13 game stretch, which included a six game losing streak. Once Nowitzki returned and got back to full strength, the Mavericks would get back on track, winning 18 of their next 19 games, as they held a 45-16 record as March began. The Mavericks would cruise the rest of the way, ending the season with a solid 57-25 record that was good enough for the third seed in the Western Conference Playoffs, despite finishing in second place in the Southwest Division behind the San Antonio Spurs. When the playoffs began, there was a strange sound out of Dallas; silence. Owner Mark Cuban was quiet and the Mavericks began to take on a quiet confidence and focus at erasing their playoff failures of the past. With a strong fourth quarter in the playoff opener, the Mavs got off to a solid start beating the Portland Trail Blazers 89-81 in Game 1 of their first round series. However, after winning Game 2 at home, the Mavericks again stumbled losing the next two games in Portland. Nothing was worse than their Game 4 loss as the Mavericks lost a 23 point lead, while being outscored 35-15 in the fourth quarter of an 84-82 loss. Returning home for Game 5, the Mavs would get back on track winning 93-82 to take back control of the series. The Mavericks would go on to eliminate the Blazers in six games with a 103-96 win. Facing the two time defending champion Los Angeles Lakers, the Mavericks would rally to win the opener in Los Angeles 96-94 as Dirk Nowitzki had a big game with 28 points and 14 boards, while hitting the game winning free throws with 19.5 seconds left. Nowitzki would lead the way again in Game 2, as the Mavs took a surprising 2-0 series lead with a 93-81 win. As the series shifted to Dallas, it was Dirk again, who had a game high 32 points as the Mavericks outscored the Lakers 18-6 down the stretch to take a 3-0 series lead, with a 98-92 win. Game 4 would be no contest as the Mavericks crushed the Lakers 122-86 to complete the four game sweep. Things got so bad for the Lakers, that Andrew Bynum took a cheap shot at J.J. Barrera who had frustrated the Lakers throughout the series with his ball handling skills and ability to get the big steal. In the Conference Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Dirk Nowitzki continued his remarkable post season with 48 points in the opener as the Mavericks outgunned the Thunder 121-112. The Thunder would strike back, with a 106-101 win in Game 2. As the series shifted to Oklahoma City, the Mavs overcame a rough night from Dirk Nowitzki to regain control of the series, with a 93-87 win, as Shawn Marion and Jason Terry made all the big shots down the stretch, after the Thunder erased a 23 point lead by the Mavericks. In Game 4, it would be the Mavericks who rallied overcoming a 15 point deficit in the final five minutes to beat the Thunder 112-105 in overtime, as Dirk Nowitzki scored a game high 40 points to give the Mavs a commanding 3-1 series lead. In Game 5, Shawn Marion would lead the way 26 points, as Dirk Nowitzki's three pointer sealed the victory that sent the Mavericks to NBA Finals with a 100-96. After winning the Western Conference, the Mavericks continued their silent focus almost wanting to discard the Western Conference Trophy for the one they really sought. 2011 NBA Finals: In the NBA Finals, the Mavericks would once again face the Miami Heat. Heading into the Finals the Heat would have all the headlines thanks to the "Big 3," led by LeBron James who joined Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade in Miami for the purpose getting a ring, or as LeBron predicted in a rally after the deal seven rings. Game 1 would belong to the Heat as LeBron James and Dwyane Wade overwhelmed the Mavericks for a 92-84 series opening win. Things looked bleak in Game 2, as the Mavericks trailed by 15 points in the fourth quarter, as Dirk Nowitzki was fighting off an injury to his left non shooting hand. Faced with a 0-2 deficit, the Mavericks went on a 22-5 run to finish the game, as Nowitzki's layup with 3.6 seconds left gave them a thrilling 95-93 win to send the series to Dallas even at a game apiece. The Mavs would make another late charge in Game 3, but Chris Bosh gave the Heat an 88-86 lead with 39.6 seconds left. The game would come down to a final shot by Dirk Nowitzki again, but this time Udonis Haslem was able to harass Nowitzki as the shot missed, and the Heat had a 2-1 series lead. The Heat would once again control Game 4 until the fourth quarter, when the Mavericks again made a late run to make the game's final seconds exciting. This time Dirk Nowitzki would not miss the game winner, spinning a layup off the glass with 14.4 seconds left to give the Mavericks a series evening 86-83 win. The Mavericks seven footer from Germany had perhaps one of his best performances in the fourth quarter scoring 10 of his 21 team high points, with five boards all while battling a fever of 103 degrees. Game 5 would be big as the final two games would be in Miami, setting up a must win for the Mavs. The game would once again come down to the last few minutes, and once again it was Dirk Nowitzki who carried the Mavericks, driving the lane for a go ahead dunk with 2:45 left, as the Mavericks took control of the series with a 112-103 win, as Nowitzki scored a game high 29 points. Back in Miami for Game 6, the Mavericks would come out firing in the first quarter scoring 32 points to take an early lead. This time the Mavericks would control the pace, as they kept the Heat at bay all game, as Jason Terry, who along with Nowitzki were the last remaining Mavericks from the 2006 Finals scored a game high 27 points and Dirk Nowitzki had 21 point with 11 rebounds as the Mavericks won the game and the NBA Championship 105-95. An emotional Dirk Nowitzki rushed back to the locker for some time to himself as the Mavs celebrated on the floor. This time the silence was broken, as Owner Mark Cuban and the team lit up the South Beach night life with the trophy, while Dirk Nowitzki was named NBA Finals MVP, while in a surprise move Cuban invited Mavericks founder Donald Carter, who still held a minority 4% share in the team on the stage for the trophy presentation. 2011/12: Heavy is the crown of a NBA Champion and the Mavericks found this out the hard way. After a lockout shortened the off-season celebration, the Mavericks were hit hard during the brief free agency signing period before the season started. Key players the Mavericks lost included Tyson Chandler, who went to the New York Knicks as part of a sign and trade, Caron Butler, who signed with the Los Angeles Clippers, DeShawn Stevenson who signed with the New Jersey Nets, and J.J. Barea who signed with the Minnesota Timberwolves after a breakout postseason. To make up for the lost talent the Mavericks signed former All-Star Vince Carter, while trading for reigning sixth man Lamar Odom from the Los Angeles Lakers. The Championship banner was finally raised on Christmas Day as the Mavericks had a rematch with the Miami Heat, losing 105-94. The Mavericks would get off to a shaky start dropping their first three games, as Dirk Nowitzki was admittedly out of shape during the extended off-season, As Nowitzki got his legs back, and the Mavs got on track winning eight of nine games at home as they got back to their normal level with a strong January. However, they never quite got going to championship as they found themselves playing mediocre basketball over the final three months. Among the disappointments in Dallas, was Lamar Odom who clashed with teammates and coaches and struggled all season before being asked to leave the team in April. Despite losing four of their last six games the Mavericks held on to the seventh playoff spot with a record of 36-30. 2012 Playoffs: In the playoffs the Mavericks would face the Oklahoma City Thunder in a rematch of 2011's Western Conference Finals. Despite their poor finish the Mavericks came out strong in Game 1, as the game was nip and tuck throughout. The Mavericks held a one point lead late; before Kevin Durant gave the Thunder a 99-98 win with a one handed jumper with one second left as Shawn Marion failed to get a shot off at the buzzer. Game 2 was also close, but in the end the Thunder won a again 102-99 as Dirk Nowitzki's game high 31 points were not enough. Things would not get better as the series moved to Dallas, as the Thunder rolled in Game 3 to a 95-79 win, taking a 3-0 series lead. Hoping to avoid a sweep the Mavs held a 13 point lead in the third quarter. However, the Thunder surged in the fourth quarter; outscoring the Mavericks 35-16 as they completed the sweep with a 103-97 win. 2012/13: Following a quick exit from the playoffs, the Mavericks hoped to land a big star to bring them back to their championship form. However, instead they lost key parts as Jason Kidd left to sign with the New York Knicks, while Jason Terry landed with the Boston Celtics. To replace Kidd, the Mavs hoped to sign Deron Williams, but those efforts proved to be fruitless as he re-signed with the Brooklyn Nets. Instead the Mavericks settled on O.J. Mayo, Elton Brand and Chris Kaman. Things would get even stickier for the Mavericks as they were forced to begin the season without Dirk Nowitzki, who underwent knee surgery in October. After splitting their first two games on the road, the Mavericks took advantage of a soft early schedule and beat the Charlotte Bobcats in their home opener 126-99. However, the absence of Nowizki would soon catch up to the Mavericks, as they dropped nine of their last ten games in December, and entered the New Year with a record of 12-19. By the time Dirk Nowitzki returned the Mavericks were in a deep hole with a record of 14-23. Despite clearly not being 1005, just the presence of Dirk was enough to help the Mavericks win five of seven, but the hill was too steep to climb as the Mavericks remained out of the playoff race and below .500 most of the season The Mavericks would make a late run, posting a 10-5 record in March, but they would not reach the .500 mark until the end of the season as beat the New Orleans Hornets 99-87 to finish the year with a record of 41-41, missing the playoffs for the first time since 2000. 2013/14: After missing the playoffs for the first time in 13 years, the Mavericks looked to improve in the off-season, as they signed Monta Ellis to a three year 3-year deal worth at least $25 million. The Mavs also signed Samuel Dalembert, Devin Harris and Jose Calderon. However, the key for the Mavericks would be the health of Dirk Nowitzki, who returned to All-Star form leading the team in scoring with 21.7 points per game. Along the way, Dirk entered the top ten NBA's all-time scoring list passing Oscar Robertson with his 26,712th point on April 8th. Monta Ellis also had a fine first year in Dallas, with 19.0 points and 5.7 assists per game, while fellow newcomer Samuel Dalembert averaged 6.8 boards per game. The Mavericks would be in the playoff hunt all season, and thanks to a strong finish beat out the Phoenix Suns by one game for the lost spot in the Western Conference Playoff race with a record of 49-33. 2014 Playoffs: Facing the San Antonio Spurs who had the best record in the NBA and swept Dallas in the regular season. However, the Mavs showed early they would not be pushovers, as they held a ten point lead in the fourth quarter of Game 1. The Spurs would rally to win the game 90-85, but the Mavs would get the much needed split in San Antonio taking Game 2 by a score of 113-92. As the series shifted to Dallas, the Mavericks continued to frustrate the Spurs as they won the game 109-108, with Vince Carter nailing a game winning three pointer at the buzzer. In Game 4, the Spurs built a 20 point lead, but the pesky Mavericks clawed their way back and had a chance to tie the game, but Monta Ellis missed a layup as the Spurs evened the series with a 93-89 win. The Mavericks would be without the services of DeJuan Blair in Game 5 after kicking Tiago Splitter in the head in Game 4. The Spurs would win in AT&T Center 109-103 to regain control of the series. Blair would return for Game 6, as the Mavericks with Monta Ellis scoring a game high 29 points evened the series with a 113-111 win. Although the Mavericks would never be in Game 7, losing 119-96 they would be the only team to get to a seventh game against the Spurs who went on to capture their fifth NBA Championship. 2014/15: After a hard fought loss in the playoffs to San Antonio Spurs, the Dallas Mavericks hoped to improve by making a number of small deal for veterans to add to the team's depth. They also secured Dirk Nowitzki for another three years, signing the future Hall of Famer for a contract worth $25 million. Nowitzki's deal helped Dallas afford the additions. Included in the off-season additions were two players who had been key contributors to the 2011 Championship team Tyson Chandler and J.J. Barea. However, the biggest addition was Chandler Parsons, a free agent signed to a three-year deal worth $46 million. Despite a disappointing 101-100 loss to the Spurs in the season opener, the Mavericks played well early in the season posting a 13-5 record. The Mavs continued their solid play into December, but looked to get even better sitting with a record of 19-8 on December 18th. That day the Mavericks acquired All-Star Point Guard Rajon Rondo from the Boston Celtics along with Dwight Powell for Jae Crowder, Jameer Nelson, Brandan Wright, a 2015 first-round pick and a 2016 second-round pick. Rondo however, struggled in Dallas and never seemed to fit into Coach Rick Carlisle's schemes. On February 25th, Rondo was given a one-game suspension for conduct detrimental to the team, a day after the he had a heated exchange on the court with coach Rick Carlisle and was benched. The Mavericks would finish the season with a record of 50-32, grabbing the seventh overall spot in the Western Conference Playoff race. Monta Ellis was the Mavericks leading scorer for the season, with 18.9 points per game, while Dirk Nowitzki was terrific again with 17.3 ppg. During the season, Nowtizki climbed past Elvin Hayes and Moses Malone into seventh place on the NBA All-Time scoring list, as he reached 28,000 point and 10,000 rebounds. 2015 Playoffs: In the playoffs the Mavericks would have another Lone Star showdown in the playoffs against the Houston Rockets. Game 1 would not go in the Mavericks favor as the Rockets jumped in front early and never looked back, winning 118-108. The Rockets would also capture Game 2 by a score of 111-99. During the game Rajon Rondo sustained a back injury that would sideline him the remainder of the series, but by then his minutes had diminished. As the series shifted to Dallas, the Mavericks got 34 points each from Monta Ellis and Dirk Nowitzki. However, with James Harden scoring 42 points and Dwight Howard grabbing 26 boards the Rockets won the game 130-128. With Ellis scoring 31 points, the Mavericks kept the brooms away in Game 4, winning 121-109. The Rockets would go on to take the series in five games, winning the finale 103-94. 2015/16: After their quick playoff exit, the Dallas Mavericks looked to go on a big off-season spending spree with some extra flexibility under the salary cap. Highlighting the additions were Wesley Matthews who signed a four-year deal worth $70 million and former All-Star Deron Williams, who came to his hometown Dallas looking to resurrect his career after a disappointing tenure with the Brooklyn Nets. One player who got away, was the Mavericks big target DeAndre Jordan. Jordan had agreed to a four-year deal with the Mavs before the free agent signing period, but his teammates on the Los Angeles Clippers worked heavily to get DeAndre Jordan to change his mind, going as far to prevent the Mavericks and Mark Cuban from getting in touch with him as he decided to remain with the Clippers. After opening the season with a 111-95 road win against the Phoenix Suns, the Mavericks got a close up look to the one that got away, as they suffered a 104-88 loss to the Clippers at Staples Center in the second game of the season. Two weeks later, Jordan was booed throughout the game as the Mavericks answered the Clippers with a 118-108 win at home. That win would spark Dallas on to a six game winning streak. After entering the New Year with a record of 19-13, the Mavericks had their struggles in January as they scuffled along at 9-9. It would mark the beginning of a bad second half for the Mavericks as they had back-to-back losing records in February and March. Things would look bleaker as the season began to hit the final stretch as they went through an awful 2-10 stretch and dropped below .500. Fortunately, many other teams in the Western Conference were struggling at the same time, as Dallas stayed in playoff contention. As March came to an end, the Mavericks began to find their game, winning six straight to get back into playoffs as they finished with the sixth spot holding a record of 42-40. As the year came to an end, Dirk Nowtizki continued to move up the NBA's all-time scoring list as he became the sixth player to reach 29,000 points. Nowitzki would once again lead the Mavericks in scoring with 18.3 points per game. Zaza Pachulia also had a big season for the Mavericks, leading the team in rebounds, with 9.4 boards per game, after being acquired in an off-season trade with the Milwaukee Bucks, while Deron Williams led the team in assists with 5.8 per game while finishing second on the team in scoring with 14.1 ppg. 2016 NBA Playoffs: The Dallas Mavericks would face the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first round. Things got off to an ugly start for Dallas, as they were outscored 26-11 in the first quarters as the Thunder rolled to a 108-70 win. The Mavericks played much better in Game 2, led by Raymond Felton who had a double-double with 21 points and 11 boards to even the series with an 85-84 win, as Steven Adams put back which would have won the game for OKC was reviewed and shown to be made after the final buzzer. After getting a split in Oklahoma City the Mavericks were unable to capitalize as they again were blown out in Game 3, losing 131-102, as the Thunder proved too much for the Mavericks in the end, winning the series in five games. The Thunder would win the final two games by double digits, taking Game 4 in Dallas 119-108 and Game 5 at home 118-104. 2016/17: For nearly 20 years with Dirk Nowitzki the Dallas Mavericks were a consistent playoff contender, but as he entered the twilight of his career, the team was entering a period of uncertainty. The Mavericks struggled right away, losing their first five games on the way to a horrendous 3-15 start. The Mavericks would play better in December, as they went into the New Year with a record of 10-24. Dallas would post winning records in February and March, but their playoff hopes withered away quickly. The Mavericks would go on to finish the season with a record of 33-49, their worst season since 1999. Harrison Barnes was the Mavs leading scorer with 19.2 points and five rebounds per game. Nowitzki who missed 28 games, would average 14.2 points with 6.1 boards per game.

Each would have five thirty second spots on television. The game would not be shown on regular television, either... The NFL is the elitist of leagues in America. They do not care about, nor give credence to, any other sport. They do what they want, when they want and if that means overshadowing other sports, then so be it. This week, the league is thinking about moving one of their games to a 10PM start. The reason for doing this would be simple. Try and overshadow the baseball playoffs... The Chicago Cubs are in the playoffs again for the second year in a row. Someone should tell the Cubs that before they are swept away and there is no evidence that they ever existed in these playoffs. The Los Angeles Dodgers are crushing the Cubs at Wrigley Field and it makes one wonder. Do the Cub players actually know they are in the playoffs? When asked that question several Cubs gave peculiar answers... Miami has the Dolphins, the greatest football team. They take the ball, from goal to goal, like no one's ever seen. Their in the air, their on the ground, their always in control. And when you say Miami, you're talking Super Bowl. That is the theme song for the Miami Dolphins. actually, it is the theme song for the old Houston Oilers, but the Dolphins stole it successfully. We here at SS have been touting a Buffalo Bills appearance in the Super Bowl. We don't care that there is still three quarters of the season left, we simply pick the team every week we think will win the whole thing... Now that both USC and Ohio State have had crushing defeats, who is left to play in the National Championship game? Can the game even survive without the two teams that many predicted would be playing for the title before the season began. Once again, the importance of the preseason polls were on display Thursday night when Oregon State disposed of supposedly one of the best teams that Pete Carroll has ever had at USC. Wow, the best team ever, and they lose a game in the first quarter of the season... It is one thing when the economy crumbles and the war in Iraq seems to have been going on for thirty years, but the Yankees not making the playoffs, that signals something is wrong with our country. How cruel of a joke is it that the last game in Yankee Stadium was rendered meaningless. These are the Yankees. They are supposed to win. This country was not built for little teams like the Tampa Bay Rays to win the American League East... O.K. Bills fans, I have jumped on your banwagon, but there is a threat brewing over there on the NFC side. The Bills, while once again showing why they are the best team in the AFC, have to be concerned about their eventual opponent in the Super Bowl. At first we though it might be the Bears, but they have fizzled the past two weeks. Then we here at SS jumped on the Panthers bandwagon. That wagon lost its wheels in a stunning loss on Sunday... The United States has become so cocky about their ability to be superior to the world in every sport that they have suggested a change to the current format for the Ryder Cup. They will now not only take on Europe, but the whole world. The current format has United States golfers taking on golfers from all the different European countries. While they are just one country, they still find it necessary to play against golfers from many countries... The NFL has become an extremely violent sport. What used to be played by beer guzzling athletes is now played by fierce warriors. That is the image the NFL wants to send to its fans. Or is it? Commissioner Roger Goodell today announced that he would like to curb some of the anger that leads to injuries in the league. He would like to take out some of the violence...

Major League Baseball is the highest level of professional baseball in the United States and Canada. Specifically, Major League Baseball refers to the organization that operates the National League and the American League by a joint organizational structure that has developed gradually between them since 1901. In 2000, the two leagues ceased to be separate legal entities, with the commissioner's office assuming all responsibilities for running MLB. MLB effectively operates as a single league and as such it constitutes one of the major professional sports leagues of the United States and Canada. It is currently composed of 30 teams...

Many states have statute of limitations laws that might prevent the prosecution of a case if a match is not determined in a timely manner. Therefore, if no offender match occurs in cases in which statutes of limitations are an issue, consideration may be given (in consultation with the prosecutor) to preparing a John Doe warrant. When a DNA profile is developed from evidence in a case where the suspect is not immediately known and no offender match occurs, a John Doe warrant may be filed. The DNA profile of the perpetrator, which was developed from the evidence in the investigation, is used to describe the perpetrator in the language of the warrant. The DNA profile generated by the crime laboratory should be clearly printed on the face of the warrant. The filing of a John Doe warrant effectively prevents the expiration of the statute of limitations on a particular case.

#MondayMotivation At my first slimming world meeting I said I’d like to lose 1 stone, the lady weighing me asked in a perfect world what do I REALLY want to lose and that was 6 stone. I left that first meeting overwhelmed by the number on the scales and the idea of how much work I’d need to do in order to hit that target. I ordered a @starrynightdesignsuk chart just because it was pretty, fast forward 9 months and I proudly mark each pound off as I lose. This has been life changing for me, I have always been the big girl so to lose this weight has benefited both my physical and mental healthy massively. I have only 2.5lbs to target, it’s actually unreal to write that. I’m so excited for target and when I get there I will 100% be celebrating. Find something to motivate you, put yourself first and make it happen! ❤️ This stuffed acorn squash has the PERFECT flavors for fall!🤗🍂🍁(Which I think I might have accidentally slept through?🧐) Savory pork sausage with herb flavored mushrooms and pops of diced apples stuffed into roasted acorn squash halves then topped with melty gruyère cheese, all for only 304 calories per serving! (7 SP) Recipe is on the blog now! ➡️ SO I have teamed up with @natvianaturalsweetener for **SUGAR AWARENESS WEEK** which is from the 12TH – 18TH NOVEMBER !! When Natvia contacted me several weeks ago to try it out I was very willing because as much as I enjoy baking I honestly did get put off by the amount of sugar that goes into cakes, biscuits, muffins etc as the sugar is a LOT!!! So after trying Natvia I can honestly say (and my page is very HONEST) it’s good! Some of my pals and I have had a little bake off and here are the first batch of butterfly cakes ....Of course I have also pointed them for @WW followers too, woohooo ! I have even compared the pointage against if you were using sugar ! Really tasty, crumblier consistency but still so soft and not dry at all!! Double thumbs up!!Switching to Natvia from sugar in this basic cupcake recipe and butter icing saves u 62SP POINTS!!! Meaning these cakes are 3sp each instead of 8sp and knowing that it has 96% LESS CALORIES than sugar makes me very very HAPPY ! 👍🏻👍🏻➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️➡️ will be posting more recipes in the week!!

Abeler, 'Fungibility, Labels, and Consumption', Journal of the European Economic Association (with Felix Marklein) (forthcoming) J. Abeler, 'Representative Evidence on Lying Costs' , Journal of Public Economics 113 (2014), 96–104 (with Anke Becker, Armin Falk) Two St Mary's students, sisters Verity (9M ) and Marianne Corrick- Gough (10M), have been selected to play for Team GB Junior Roller Derby and will join the squad as they fly out to Philadelphia to participate in the Junior Roller Derby Association World Cup this July. Verity and Marianne have both been playing Roller Derby for Hereford Poison Berries Juniors for over 4 years and Marianne is the teams current Captain. Both girls have trained hard to achieve their dream of playing for their country at the highest level. Marianne says “Keeping the balance between training for our sport and also making sure that we are achieving our academic potential means that we often have to miss out on parties and other fun events, but all of the sacrifices have been worth it. Not only will we get to represent Great Britain – but we also get to visit New York!” Both girls have had a very successful 2017/18 season appearing at many top international events including the Men’s Roller Derby World Championships in October 2017. They were then selected to play for Team England Juniors in November 2017 where Verity led the team out in her first game as Captain. In February this year the girls appeared on BBC Sport when their Junior European Exhibition game was broadcast live prior to the Ladies Roller Derby World Cup Final. Their Ladies World Cup experience was also captured on film by CBBC who made a short film about Marianne’s World Cup experience as part of the BBC ‘Get Inspired’ campaign. Marianne and Verity will be joined on their trip to Philadelphia by their 16 year old sister, past St Mary’s pupil and current Hereford Sixth Form student, Amelia Corrick-Gough, who has been selected by the World Cup Officials Committee to referee at both the World Cup and The USA Championships tournament. Both Marianne and Verity have recently had sponsorship deals confirmed with Quad Roller Skate (Berlin) and are also recipients of Halo Sports Foundation Awards 2018. A panzanella salad w/ some cucumbers from the garden and toasted bread cubes added to the tomatoes & cheese, presented in a circle. I am sure you can find another type of juicy summer variety, but Jersey tomatoes are really the best. :) I love all those ways you showed with our beautiful Jersey tomatoes. What will we do once summer's bounty is gone? Back to salads without tomatoes! Delicious! Just wondering...looks like the mozzarella on the skewers in the last pic have been marinated in something. Care to share what? I've been looking for such a recipe before the summer's over! I think when I made these years back, I used bocconcini that was marinated in the container (Trader Joe's used to sell them)........the pic is from my blog from a few yrs ago. A little Italian seasoning, oil, kosher salt & a splash of white balsamic would make a good marinade for the cheese too.

Reviews for The Rock's new movie, The Rundown, have been universally positive, including a rare 'two thumbs up' and heavy praise from film gurus Ebert and Roeper. Watching the People's Champ on Raw last Monday -- live via satellite from the L.A. premiere of The Rundown -- was a little disconcerting. For the first time, we weren't watching a familiar wrestler stepping out of character at a big media event to get his or her face on Entertainment Tonight. Instead, we were watching a bona fide Hollywood superstar gracing Raw with an almost-token guest appearance for his fans. The Rock has made it! While Hulk Hogan and Steve Austin can still reasonably claim to have earned a similar level of mainstream celebrity in their respective primes, neither one can touch The Rock when it comes to credibility and public status and, mark my words, this is just the beginning. It was almost funny to watch The Rock, smiling away on the red carpet at the glitzy premiere of HIS movie, with critics around the world singing HIS praises and HIS dollars-per-picture figure heading swiftly north. Then we flash back to Raw at the MCI Center in Washington, with all lights pointing toward the ring to draw attention away from the black tarps covering the entire upper deck of unsold seats and a string of desperate storylines scheduled to hit the airwaves in hopes they can turn around the dwindling WWE business. As Rocky spoke to the assembled masses, it wasn't hard to read between the lines. In the midst of a somewhat nostalgic verbal assault on a hapless Mark Lloyd, the Brahma Bull took the opportunity to offer his gratitude to the fans who have supported him through the years -- almost a "thanks for the memories" before moving onto bigger things. Of course, he'll be back for the occasional cameo but as his stock continues to rise, I don't think Hollywood execs will be overly thrilled to watch their multi-million-dollar investment being whacked over the skull with folding metal chairs or slitting his forehead open with razor blades. The original plan was for Rocky to return to WWE soil next February so he could build toward a match at Wrestlemania XX. There's now talk his 'Mania role might be reduced to just a guest refereeing spot. He may not even appear. In fact, although Dwayne Johnston still genuinely loves the mat wars, he may have already wrestled his last match. There's still about a year left on his WWE contract but it'll likely be limited to Vince McMahon's executive producer role on all his movies (a deal McMahon was offered in exchange for giving up the rights to The Rock name) and an occasional guest slot on WWE TV to promote his next big release. The Rock is probably doing more for wrestling as its ambassador in Hollywood than he ever could in the ring. If Tinseltown starts to view the squared circle as a breeding-ground for 'real' stars (Chris Jericho and Trish Stratus spring to mind), it could ignite wrestling's next boom period far sooner than even the most ambitious pundits expect. Triple H will be the first in line to try to ride The Rock's coattails, taking a sabbatical from the ring to star as an evil vampire opposite Wesley Snipes in Blade III. The Game will then take the lead role in Jornada del Muerte -- a Western that McMahon bought specifically as a vehicle for his future son-in-law. My gut feeling -- and I'm echoing sentiments already expressed by wrestling journalists around the world here -- is the movie, which is set to be produced by WWE Films, will be an XFL-degree flop. The exodus to Hollywood continues with Kevin Nash and Hulk Hogan appearing in Marvel Comics' The Punisher next summer and Bill Goldberg making a cameo in Looney Tunes: Back In Action, set for release in November.
Aaron Regunberg, the progressive candidate to fill Gordon Fox’s vacant District 4 House seat, wants to get the negativity out of the campaign. So he’s asked his two opponents to sign what he calls a “Clean Campaign Pledge” which a press release from his campaign says “would require signers to refrain from negative attacks and maintain a high level of honest debate in the race to succeed Gordon Fox.” Regunberg explained in the release: “Everywhere I go in our district, community members are talking about the need for ethics reform and clean elections in Rhode Island, and are fed up with the negative mudslinging that has become too common in politics today. If we believe in open, honest and transparent elections, then let’s commit to refrain from engaging in these attacks. I have enjoyed running alongside the other committed, intelligent candidates in the race for State Representative.” So far, one of his two opponents has agreed. Heather Tow-Yick, another young Democrat vying for the District 4 House seat, agreed to sign Regunberg’s pledge, according to her spokesman Rob Horowitz. “Heather Tow-Yick looks forward to a clean, constructive, but spirited campaign about the major challenges facing the East Side, Providence and Rhode Island and which of the candidates’ real world experience and accomplishments makes them the best prepared to turn progressive values into practical results,” he said. “That is a contest we are confident of winning.” UPDATE: Ethan Gyles is also running for this seat, as an independent. He reached out on Twitter and said he likes the idea of a clean campaign and would be contacting Regunberg about it.
This is how you beat level 458 of Candy Crush Saga. Follow these Candy Crush cheats, tips and strategy and you will pass level 458 in no time! The goal of level 458 is to clear the 53 double jellies while scoring 130,000 points in 30 moves or less. The obstacles are the eight licorice cages and the odd shape of the board. There are also seven mystery candies on the board and who knows what they’ll bring. Your first move is to free the locked candies. The ones on the left side of the board are harder because the top and bottom ones are don’t have any candies next to them to match with. An effective way to take them out is by special candies. The best special candy combination in this level is a striped candy + a color bomb. This level really is determined by what you get from the mystery candies. If you are unlucky and get blockers, it’ll be a lot more difficult to win.

I can guaranty you have not too much hubbub about the positive effects of eating “magic mushrooms. These of course are nasty-tasting pieces of mushroom that provide hallucinogenic effects.

- STAFF PORTAL- CGE NEWS PORTAL : Cla PNM/NFIR meeting with Board, the Federation have raised an issue that lateral entrants in Railways Service, especially ex-servicemen, who have retired or ceased to be a railway servant, after having rendered more than 20 years of qualifying service (i.e. after addition of admissible past non-railway service) are not being issued entitled number of PRCPs. 2.

Secrets and unease are what drive “The Handmaid’s Tale.” Not knowing what the characters’ true motivations are casts a veil of ambiguity over the series and keeps you guessing what will happen next. But the more a spotlight gets shined on a particular character, say Serena (Yvonne Strahovski) in this second season, the more you start to feel these characters true motivations start to shine through. And even in the case of Serena, she flip-flops just enough to keep things interesting. And as “Postpartum” reveals to us, with each new character introduced, we must all over again determine whether this is a person that can be trusted or is this a person who is going to get a good character hurt, and often, even after two seasons, we’re not sure the answer on that. Holly is home. Or should I say Nichole. The baby that Offred (Elisabeth Moss) had last week is now home with Serena. And although Offred is pumping breast milk from the Red Center at the start of the episode, it’s only a matter of time before she’s back in the house after some urging from Aunt Lydia (Ann Dowd) and some folding by Commander Waterford (Ralph Fiennes). Once again, the story of what happened to Offred in the last episode is turned to make the Waterford household not sound so bad. Nick (Max Minghella) is the hero, being wrongfully detained by some overzealous Guardians, while Offred is brave for facing the odds in the lone house and producing a healthy baby in the process. Serena wants Offred nowhere near the baby, so Offred must listen to the baby’s cries through the floor boards of the bathroom or smell the baby’s dirty clothes from the hamper left in the kitchen. Serena is trying to force herself on this child and even attempts breastfeeding her at one point, which leaves the baby confused and leaves Serena embarrassed. The congruent story in this episode is that of Eden (Sydney Sweeney). She speaks with Offred about love to which Offred tells her, “in this place, you grab love wherever you can find it.” The household wakes the next morning to find that their Guardian Isaac (Rohan Mead) and Eden are both missing, which isn’t a surprise, as they were caught kissing only last week. They are found and brought to a college to face their judgment. but instead of renouncing what they have done, they take their punishment, which results in weights being chained to them and them being thrown into the deep end of a swimming pool, where they drown in front of the household as well as their families. The highlight here is seeing Serena crying over the entire situation. Yes, she was close to Eden, but also seeing a young girl executed, who was extremely devout to the word of God, must put some things into perspective for her. By the end of the episode, she is quoting scripture and allowing Offred to breastfeed Holly/Nichole. It will be interesting to see where Serena’s storyline goes next. Separate from all of this, Emily (Alexis Bledel) is being moved to a new house, where the man behind the economic system of Gilead, Commander Joseph Lawrence (Bradley Whitford) is housed. There’s something off about him, however, with a one-eyed, smart-talking Martha (Victoria Fodor) as well as a house full of art that makes Aunt Lydia snarl. Once again, here’s a character with mysterious intentions. We meet the Commander’s wife (Julie Dretzin), who tells Emily that her husband came up with the idea of the colonies, to which Emily has basically just come from the front-lines of, telling her that the dirt they are digging up is poison, which we basically knew already. She has a breakdown and the Commander must put her back to bed. He then offers Emily a drink and they discuss her life before Gilead, to which he has a lot of knowledge. Again, he seems like a nice guy, but who knows what kind of warped sense of purpose he has hidden underneath this smart guy veneer. With this being the penultimate episode of Season Two, so many thing have still to be wrapped up. Where will they leave Offred in the season finale? Aunt Lydia has expressed that many households are interested in her outside of the Waterfords. But with Serena’s change of heart at the end of the episode, will they be keeping her around? Commander Waterford is still showing an interest in Offred as well. What’s going to happen to Nick? He feels extremely guilty after the death of his wife, Eden. Will that lead him to do something rash? He and Offred spent some time fantasizing about taking their child to beach. Could an escape attempt be coming? I, for one, am still curious as to what Nick’s deal was with Commander Pryce, who was killed in the explosion. He was having Nick watch over the Waterford household for some reason, to which we were never privy. Will we ever learn what that was about? All I know for sure is that something big is going to happen at the end of next week’s episode, which will in turn create a new dynamic to be picked up in the already ordered Season Three. Elliot has been suspended for a domestic vibe charge from over a year ago. This suspension has been long coming for the Cowboys star. On July 22 TMZ sports and deadspins unearthed photos of Elliots ex girlfriend on Instagram. The title alleged Elliott of “throwing me across the room by my arms” The photos released show brutal injuries to Elliott’s ex-girlfriends knees, arms, head, and throat. Police have been investigating the incident since its occurance on July 22nd of 2016. The Columbus Attorneys office declined to press charges. With the recent PR mess the NFL has had with domestic violence it is no shock to anyone that this suspension has come down. However critics will say it should have come much sooner. The NFL spent a year investigating this case and for many anti domestic abuse organazations that is just too long. However it is clear the league wanted to get this one right. Especially with a league face like Elliot attached to it. So now where do the Cowboys turn? Well at running back the boys now turn to Darren Mcfadden and Alfred Morris. Morris had the more success of the two last year as Elliots back up. Another interesting name thrown into the mix is veteran Ronnie Hillman who wont see a massive amount of touches but provides an explosive one down back for the Cowboys to add to there attack. The main pressure will fall on to Cowboys QB Dak Prescott though as he will be looked to too carry the offense.
May 14, 1948, created two contradictory histories of triumph and tragedy; the establishment of the State of Israel and the birth of the Palestinian refugee issue. Although these two histories are those of the occupier and the occupied, the violent characteristics of the establishment of the Stat e of Israel, as a "successful" culmination of Zionist movements that internalized imperialism and racism, have rarely been called into question. Behind this situation, the devastating experience of Palestinians has been suppressed. In spite of the fact that international recognition is regarded as t he only feasible and realistic solution, the substance of the Oslo Accords, and the subsequent peace process, has disregarded the history of the of Palestinians. However, today even this deeply-flawed peace process has collapsed. In this demoralized situation, how can we envisage the future of Palestine/Israel? Starting from this question, I attempt to discuss problems of historiographies within Israeli academia. Moreover, I intend to argue what kind of research will be necessary in order to overcome these problems.
Does the recent commotion about the shortcomings of the new iPhone seem out of proportion to both the problem and the newsworthiness of the whole affair? When’s the last time you saw so much energy devoted to a cell phone that drops calls? And yet, there it is, front and center in the public consciousness.

The vibrant African fashion of “Black Panther” was on display at multiplexes around the country Thursday as moviegoers flocked to the first showings of Marvel’s latest superhero blockbuster in traditional African shirts, dresses, head wraps and more. Some opted to make their own clothes to celebrate the arrival of a superhero many black moviegoers said provided an opportunity for them to celebrate their heritage in a way they haven’t been able to before. “We’re excited because we get representation in a film that’s not about slavery, that’s not about trials and tribulations, but about a powerful African empire, which is where we come from in the first place,” said tattoo artist Elisheba Mrozik, who attended one of the first showings of the film in Nashville. She wore a flowing shoulderless black gown that was broken up by patterns of purple and yellow designs that she said was made in Nigeria and that she bought for the film’s release and Black History Month. “Somebody that looks like me is a superhero and nobody is whitewashing it. And it’s beautiful,” she said. In the nearly 10 years since Marvel’s “Iron Man” sparked sprawling film superhero universes, there have been plenty of chances for fans to wear clothes that pay homage to favorites such as Spider-Man, Batman, the Hulk and more. But “Black Panther” has sparked something different — an opportunity for black moviegoers to watch a superhero who not only looks like them, but also introduces a different view of Africa than has traditionally been seen at theaters. Set in the fictional nation of Wakanda, a technologically advanced oasis that has never been colonized, the film has been praised for its vision of Afrofuturism, strong and smart female characters and a story that shatters stereotypes about the continent and its people. The film earned $25.2 million in Thursday showings, making it the biggest debut of a February release and the second-largest early opening of a Marvel Studios feature. At an early showing at Hollywood’s TCL Chinese Theater, Segun Begunrin and his family wore a bright purple outfit that had special meaning to them. “This particular fabric meant something personally to me, because it was the fabric that we selected for my father’s funeral. So we did it for the celebration of his life. So it’s a form of celebration for the movie,” he said. Jacob Taylor also attended an early show in Los Angeles and said the impact of “Black Panther” extends beyond the African-American community. “I think it is very indicative of where we are as a culture,” he said. “The push for diversity, inclusion, equal pay — all of that. So, I think it’s just timely.” At a showing in New York’s Times Square, Miquain Gainey wore a Basotho blanket used by the Bantu tribe in South Africa. “It’s featured very prominently in the film, and it’s cultural heritage,” he said. Gainey said he wanted something fashionable that fit the film, but he also wanted to stay warm. Kiara Citron, who is a huge Marvel Comics fan and had a Deadpool-themed wedding, was at the same theater and wore a bright blue satin gown she spent a week sewing, using some leftover fabric for a matching head wrap. “I just made something for the occasion because I’ve never had an opportunity for this before,” she said. “I’ve never gone to a theater to see a film like this before, so I just really needed to go all out.” In Nashville, Latarsher White and her family wore custom-made African gowns and suits come from royalty,” she said. “It’s bigger than what we see every day and what’s represented. It’s just connecting to your heritage and that royal lineage to a degree. And so it’s always good to play dress- up.” “I wanted to make sure that people knew that I really felt comfortable,” El-Amin said. “Feel comfortable in the skin that I am in and feel comfortable doing things like this.” Ronald Simmons, founder of the website sported a Black Panther T-shirt to a Times Square show Thursday night. He said he expected “Black Panther” to be life-changing for many fans, especially children. “If I was a kid, and I saw ‘Black Panther’ that would have been great,” he said. “I grew up in a lot of heroes and none of them look like me at all. And I still love those heroes, but I can imagine being a kid and seeing, you know, a character that looked like me, I would be pretty hyped.” PAHOA >> The mighty fissure 8 in Leilani Estates continued to make Hawaii island a little bigger Saturday, pumping lava that stayed for the most part in a stream-like channel exiting into the ocean about 8 miles away near the island’s eastern tip. Fissure 8 continued to feed a vigorous channelized lava flow to the east of the vent on Saturday morning. U.S. Geological Survey and Hawaii County Civil Defense reports said lava overflowed the channel for several hours near the intersection of Highway 132 and Pohoiki Road, though almost none of the overspill extended beyond hardened lava previously laid down since the eruption in Puna’s lower East Rift Zone began May 3 in the middle of the residential subdivision. The USGS said fountaining from fissure 8 reached as high as about 200 feet Saturday, and there was some minor lava activity from fissures 16 and 18. Also Saturday, there was an explosive eruption of rock and ash at Kilauea’s summit at 4:50 a.m. that produced a plume expected to possibly blow to the southwest toward Wood Valley, Pahala and Ocean View. Because tradewind conditions returned, vog was projected to carry to the south and west sides of the island, while plumes of noxious gas coming out of the ocean around the new Kapoho coastline were pushing those emissions south, farther out over the ocean. Over the last five weeks, 24 fissures have opened in and near the Leilani Estates community of about 750 homes on lots of at least other lightweight volcanic glass bits from the lava fountain fell within the area. Lava from various fissures — and lately from fissure 8 exclusively — has consumed homes in Leilani Estates, the neighboring Lanipuna Gardens and farther east at the Kapoho Beach Lots and Vacationland subdivisions in Kapoho, where the once-picturesque Kapoho Bay, prized for its tidepools, was filled in. To date, lava has destroyed more than 600 homes and forced close to 400 people into emergency shelters. Mayor Harry Kim has set a goal to establish a new community for the displaced. A task force of county, state and federal representatives is charged with the planning. During a Civil Defense meeting Friday, Kim said his goal is to have this project done within a year. “I swear to you we’re going to do this,” he said, according to county spokeswoman Janet Snyder. “We’re going to make Puna a better place.”

Cody has a hard time finding sweatpants for the gym that aren’t too hot. He loved from – they are fitted and still stretchy and lightweight. Brrrr. It’s been dumping so much snow in Utah lately! I just got a bunch of new (all under $60). Love for a versatile athleisure layer. It’s officially 2017! The new year came so fast! New Year’s always leaves me really really excited! A chance for a new start, new goals, and time to reflect on what I’m thankful for from the previous year and what I want to improve moving forward. 2016 was probably one of my most exciting years yet! Cody and I set BIG goals starting last year, personal goals, travel goals, goals to grow the blog and ILY and almost every goal we set we hit. We worked our asses off, but at the end of the year honestly I felt so emotionally exhausted. We were putting in long hours, many all nighters, and at the end of the day it felt like I didn’t get to enjoy the journey because I was pushing so hard to hit those goals. Reflecting back on last year, I’ve realized that a lot of times when you feel like you are overwhelmed, so much of it is mental – it all starts with a mindset. I let myself get overwhelmed with that feeling of being “so busy” that I didn’t just sit down and enjoy moments. A lot of times even when I was home my mind was constantly running and I was never able to shut anything off. I realized that if you are working hard and not balancing the rest of your life, life just becomes work and there’s no point to working hard when you aren’t taking time to enjoy it. With that said, below are a couple of my New Year’s goals for this year. We are taking a different approach to things and working more on improving the little day to day things that affect everything else we do. READ MORE. One of my big goals for this year is to read more. I’ve realized it’s easy for me to get distracted and overwhelmed mentally so I’ve been reading positive and inspiring books even just for 15 minutes a day to keep me on track. I just got a book that talks about being effective with your time and I’ve already taken so many parts to heart. RELAX. Last year even when I would be rela, taking a bath at night, I’d be in the tub with my phone responding to emails, getting posts ready, etc. The book I’ve been reading talks about deliberately setting aside that time to relax, otherwise you never get a chance to recharge. So I’ve literally been turning my phone to silent and putting it in another room so I don’t get distracted and actually relax. Not only does learning to relax help you recharge but allows you to be more present in the moment. BE PRESENT. I really debated sharing this, because it was probably one of my lowest “mom moments”, but I always strive to be honest with you guys, even in the hard times because life isn’t perfect. A few weeks ago I was on my phone finishing a deadline and B kept asking me to play tennis with him, I kept telling him to hold on I was almost done. After about 5 minutes of not being done, he started a major melt down crying, telling me to put my phone down, that I don’t pay attention to him. It was such a hard mom moment! It literally broke my heart. I threw my phone down and in tears gave him the biggest hug and just put everything else aside to be with him that afternoon. Sometime’s I forget how much they are really watching our every move. It is one of the hard parts of working from home, is that the kids see me working more but I realized this goes back to time blocking. Being effective with my time so when I am with them it’s quality time. I know I wasn’t present in many areas this last year, with my family, Cody, friends, etc. I don’t say that for you guys to build me up, I say that because I see it almost everywhere I go. We are all glued to our phones and it’s kind of sad in reality. I love what I do and am so grateful to be able to make a career out of something I’m passionate about, but no career is worth those bad mom moments so I’m making this year all about being more present. TIME BLOCKING. This was actually something we started last month we are bringing into this year. It is crazy how fast the day flies by and how easy it is to get distracted. We all get a million notifications on our phone from emails, social media, texts, calls, etc. I’ll be the first to admit I am easily distracted haha. So Cody and I both have started blocking out our days to effectively get things done. Certain times for certain projects.Whatever doesn’t get done, we have to wake up early the next day and finish. We have carried it over to our employees as well and it’s crazy how much more effective you are if you just set a timer to get something done. BEING ACTIVE. This is like a month to month thing for me, some months I’m really good at it and others I’m so bad. This book I’m reading cited all sorts of studies that show that even just 30 minutes of activity, 3 days a week positively affects almost every aspect of your life: health, happiness, love life – everything! It’s so easy to stay cuddled up inside, especially in the dead of winter, but with your New Year’s goals just getting started it’s the best time to start those habits and carve out at least 30 minutes 3 times a week to be active, whether it’s going to the gym, walking, or trying yoga or spin class. Ok, sorry for the novel! I’ve spent so much time reflecting on last year and what I want for this year and it’s so helpful to put it into words – I swear writing it out makes it seem that much more attainable. What are some of your goals for the year? Great start for a new year’s resolution … There are always great and more fabulous things to come in 2017! 🙂 Absolutely loved this post! I see a lot of the same issues in my own life when I’m so focused on getting business things done that I don’t take time to live my life. Thanks for being honest and I know you’ll rock 2017!! Oh, this is just a fabulous post! I think you’ve probably written what most of us women battle with every day. I’d be very interested to hear what book you’re reading if you don’t mind sharing? It sounds really interesting. Thanks! xo I got them at a sneaker store in New York they are sooooo hard to find cause they sell out so fast 🙁 Reading more is something I never had problems with, I’m such a book worm but being present and more active is something I def. wanna work on more and have it “working” for me in 2017! Great post Christine! This hit home for what some of the things I am looking to improve upon this year as well. Being present can be so difficult for me when I have a million things I think I need to be doing instead of rela. One thing I’m adding to my list is having more adventures! First off, you and Cody are the CUTEST!! That photo of you jumping in the air is the best! Thank you for sharing your new goals, I think these are all so great and I wouldn’t be so hard on yourself about the sitation with B, theres no such thing as being the “perfect” mom. Thank you for being one of my favorite bloggers, keep it up chick <3 Im beyond obsessed with this workout style! Those leggings are so adorable, maybe if I had an cate outfit like this it would motivate me to actually work out 😉 Loved this post! Honest and so true for most people and moms out there. I’m on the other side of the Atlantic, in Stockholm Sweden, but I have the same challenges and recognise everything you write, and I am right now trying to sum 2106 and plan 2017. Thanks for a great blog/Instagram, love the inspiration and ‘feel good’ but also the more “real”posts! /Nina What’s the name of the book you are reading? It seems so aspiring… Something I could use as well. Thanks for sharing your goals, and life’s not so perfect moments. It helps when people don’t always act as if their life is always picture perfect Loved the workout clothes! I for sure have to start time blocking as well! I also made a post with my goals for 2017, if you want to check them out I’ll leave the link down below! I love your athleisure vibe. Thanks for sharing some of your New Year’s goals, especially the goal to be more present. This is something I struggle with myself (and will do better at) and the mom guilt can be overwhelming. i love your 2017 goals and am super curious what the name of the book is you are reading at the moment. thank u so much for sharing so much with us!!! <3 <3 <3 Love the time blocking idea! I totally need to do this for my sanity!! Have a routine and structure is so important. I was listening the other day on the radio on my way to work that less social media is the top 1 resolution according to a survey, I guess 2016 was pretty intense on that matter for all. Such a good post. Love your honesty SO much. I’ve also had my kids say, “Mom, don’t look at your phone. Look at me!” It’s heartbreaking, isn’t it? Well, I’m inspired to throw some cozy pjs on, cuddle up on the couch, and not answer those emails tonight. Thank you!? Oh these are all such great resolutions! I think we could all use a little bit more of those five things in our lives. I really love this post with your new year resolutions. Your list relates to my everyday thinking. This year is definitely a DOING instead of just saying and writing it. I like your goals for the new year. I’m a little late to the game but think I may poach them. Better late than never right?! And I love your vest! Hi Stephanie! It’s never too late to add to your resolutions! Haha better than waiting til next January, right? 😉 XX

Recently we had a Silver Maple cut down, the stump grinder, and front lawn replaced. I was given instructions to water the new sod in zones 1 and 2 for 15-20 minutes, three times a day, but I also have two more zones for the backyard of which I have Rain Bird 5000’s rotor 4” pop-upsprinklers; two of which blew out their nozzles (I need to repair) and shoot powerful streams of water up and over my fences and into the neighbor’s backyard. My question is about the ‘A’ and ‘B’ programs on the ESP-6TM. I have zones 1 and 2 (front yards) set to water 20 minutes at 5 AM, 3 PM and at 6:30 PM on Program ‘A’, Monday through Sunday, and I have zones 3 and 4 in the backyard set to water for 15 minutes at 7:30 AM, Monday through Sunday. Are the two programs designed to switch automatically when there scheduled time(s) start? I stayed up this morning and the zones 1 and 2 did start. I set my alarm for 7:28 AM to check on the backyard zones, which I have a view from my bedroom, and noticed the watering did not start. Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong or what did I do wrong, or do the ‘A’ and ‘B’ programs have to be manually switched? Controller is set to “Custom” and “Auto”. I do not want to over-water my backyard or run the rotors in the backyard too long until I can repair them. I read the manual and it was not clear enough, or I did not understand the information about the two programs. Try to check the programming, make sure you have start times, run times, and the days set, and perhaps the time it has. The controller will switch from program a and b without you having to do anything, but if it's not doing that, try to check if you happen to have a rain sensor, and if you do, disable it , it might be a defective sensor telling your controller to not run. If that doesn't work, it might be a defective unit, or it might be something else, I suggest talking to their technical support, they might be able to figure it out.

OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) Working the phones and making shrewd picks that addressed the present and future needs of the Baltimore Ravens, Ozzie Newsome conjured one final fascinating draft for a team that has relied on his intuition since its inception. After making six trades and selecting 12 players, Newsome declared Saturday night: "The Baltimore Ravens are a better football team after the past three days." Newsome is stepping down as general manager after this season. He has owned the final say in the Ravens' draft room since 1996, when he chose future Hall of Famers Jonathan Ogden and Ray Lewis in the first round. The 2018 draft may not turn out to be as successful, but coach John Harbaugh - who'd heading into his 11th year with Baltimore - wouldn't bet against it. "I told Ozzie just as we finished this thing up, I feel like this is his best draft since I've been here," Harbaugh said. "Heck, maybe the best ever." Denying last month that he was carrying any nostalgic feelings into the draft, Newsome insisted he was focused solely on filling holes on a team that's missed the postseason for three straight years. He did just that. For trivia buffs out there, his final draft pick was at defensive end: Zach Sieler of Ferris State in the seventh round. His work done, Newsome was about to hang up the phone when he realized the significance of the moment. Newsome will be succeeded by assistant GM Eric DeCosta. This may have been Newsome's final draft, but his work is not done. "Even though there's a finality with that, there's not finality for what I'm going to continue to do with the Baltimore Ravens," he said. Newsome was at his finest this week. He moved back twice in the first round before selecting South Carolina tight end Hayden Hurst at No. 25, providing quarterback Joe Flacco with a downfield threat from the slot. Then, Newsome made a bold move that ultimately will determine the success of this draft. He swapped three picks to choose at No. 32, where he snapped up Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson, the multifaceted 2016 Heisman Trophy winner. The Ravens insist Flacco will remain the starter this season, but it might be hard to resist for long the temptation of playing an athlete who accounted for 119 touchdowns in three college seasons. On Day 2, after two more trades, Newsome turned his attention back to the 2018 Ravens by taking right tackle Orlando Brown Jr. -whose father played with Baltimore - and tight end Mark Andrews of Oklahoma. For his last day as Baltimore's draft guru, Newsome had eight choices. Each was made with intense consideration, as always. "A lot of work has gone into this, starting back last June," Newsome said. "I really, really feel very good about this class and how it came to be." HERE'S THE CATCH: The theme of this offseason for Baltimore has been to overhaul the receiving corps, and Newsome continued the process in the draft. After signing free agent receivers Michael Crabtree, John Brown and Willie Snead in recent weeks, Newsome collared two tight ends in the draft and on Saturday used two straight picks on receivers: Jaleel Scott of New Mexico State in the fourth round and Jordan Lasley of UCLA in the fifth. ON THE DEFENSIVE: After using the first two days of the draft to improve the Ravens' offense, Newsome turned his attention Saturday to the other side of the ball. He selected Alabama cornerback Anthony Averett at 118th overall, UCLA inside linebacker Kenny Young at No. 122 and Texas safety DeShon Elliott at 190 and then, finally, Sieler. HOLD THAT LINE: Extending his effort to make life easier for Flacco, Newsome attempted to shore up the offensive line in the draft. After the Ravens lost right tackle Austin Howard and center Ryan Jensen during the offseason, they grabbed a few potential replacements. In addition to Brown, the Ravens took tackle Greg Senat from Wagner, a 6-foot-6, 305-pounder who also played on the basketball team. In the seventh round, Newsome again tapped his alma mater, selecting Alabama center Bradley Bozeman. STILL NEED: The Ravens are fine with running back Alex Collins but hoped to find at least one backup in the draft. DeCosta said that just as Baltimore was ready to pounce, another team stepped in and took the Ravens' choice. reenwood, IN region, you just need to call Greenwoodwood, IN7-5260! Sexual addiction is typically defined as an excessive preoccupation with sexual thoughts and sexual behavior that seems beyond your control. As with all addictions, it’s important to distinguish between normal thoughts and actions from those that are considered addictive. After all, most people think about sex on a regular basis – however, does this really make them a sex addict? As with all addictions, your preoccupation with sex becomes a problem when you’re unable to control your behavior and thoughts and your fascination with sex has started to derail your life. Someone with sexual addiction repeatedly tries to stop or curtail the sexual behavior, but is ultimately unable to do so. Despite efforts to control behavior, the pull is too great and the behavior continues. Sexual addiction usually results in painful feelings of guilt and shame, feeling weak and defective, and over time can lead to depression. Sexual addiction can damage relationships, work productivity, and physical health, or cause legal or financial problems. When repeated attempts to manage sexual behavior on your own continually fail, sex addiction treatment is necessary in order to effectively overcome the problem. Repeating pattern of having anonymous or casual sex that results in feeling shame, guilt, or emptiness It’s important to keep in mind what distinguishes sexual addiction from normal sexual behavior. For example, you can masturbate frequently, perhaps several times a day, but that does not necessarily constitute sexual addition. If it feels good, doesn’t interfere with other aspects of your life, then it’s not a problem. However, if frequent masturbation takes you away from your relationships, leaves you not wanting to have sex with your partner, takes up so much time that you can’t keep up with bills, take care of your children, manage household tasks or even practice proper self-care, then you may have a sexual addiction. The same thinking applies to use of pornography, using sexual hookup sites, or having casual sex. If the behavior isn’t causing any problems in your life, then it likely is not an addiction. However, this is not meant to be a rule of thumb. In fact, there are many people who suffer from sexual addiction who don’t believe they have a problem. Perhaps you think your sexual activity is not causing dysfunction in your life, but your partner does feel the behavior is causing a problem. For example, you may feel masturbating on your own is fine and doesn’t get in the way of having an intimate relationship with your partner. However, if your partner feels it’s interfering in some way, then you may need to ask yourself, Am I blinding myself to some negative consequences? Does s/he have a point? Porn addiction is the most common form of sexual addiction and is usually accompanied by compulsive masturbation. In our modern technological era this typically takes the form of internet porn, but can also involve traditional magazines, books, videotapes, CDs, and so forth. Online porn addiction includes viewing explicit websites, chat rooms, photos, and videos. It also includes use of internet apps, such as Grindr, Tinder, Mixxxer, and Scruff, which allow you to connect with others looking for sex. Using social media to have casual encounters with anonymous partners can provide you with a kind of thrill or high that feels irresistible, as if you are being enveloped by the euphoric effects a drug. And like a drug, there can be overwhelming cravings or preoccupation when not actively engaged online. Often times with online porn addiction, the goal is not sexual release, but the high that comes with the behavior. It’s less about seeking pleasure and more about escaping painful feelings. It becomes a kind of emotional retreat that shuts out difficult thoughts and feelings. Sex becomes an escape in the same way that smoking, drinking, gambling and other addictive behaviors are attempts to numb the pain of poor self-esteem, depression, or anxiety. Sex addiction treatment typically focuses on two main areas: What are the sexual thoughts or behaviors that are causing you problems, and what function are they serving? People are usually very aware that sexual thoughts and behaviors are causing them problems. While it may be embarrassing to talk about, people tend to know what this part of the problem is. However, sex addiction treatment takes this a step further by focusing on strategies to manage addictive behavior. What can be more difficult, however, is to identify how the addictive behavior may be serving you. Most people suffering from addictions, including sexual addictions, believe their behaviors are just bad and have to be stopped. They are often in a guilt/shame spiral that just gets more entrenched as they berate themselves for their “bad” behavior. There is usually no attempt to understand that addictions are actually a way of trying to cope with difficult feelings. While curbing the addiction may seem like the logical first step, healing can only begin by first understanding the underlying issues fueling the addiction and by recognizing that you may be attempting to deal with painful feelings through sex. We have to start with a compassionate understanding that difficult, painful emotions are the main issue. At that point, the goal will be for you to learn better ways of coping, other than through sex. A large part of sex addiction treatment ultimately involves identifying and talking about the difficult feelings that are being avoided through sex acts. This occurs in a safe and supportive space, free of judgment and criticism. In this phase of treatment, you can develop new and healthy ways of managing negative emotions so that you can stop turning to sexual behaviors whenever you feel alone, angry, hopeless or depressed. Keeping in mind that addictive sexual behaviors are less about pleasure and more about escaping – the less need there is to escape, the less of a hold the sexual behavior has. With the help of sex addiction treatment, it’s possible to be more in control of yourself and feel a greater sense of freedom and choice in your actions and reactions. Therapy can help you respond better to emotionally difficult situations and free you up to better enjoy the pleasurable aspects of life. If you think you may have a problem, the first step in sex addiction treatment is setting up an initial consultation session. By discussing what is going on in a safe, supportive environment, you will get a sense of how I think and how I work, while I’ll get a sense of what you’re struggling with and how I can help. At that point we can come up with a game plan about how to move forward. Please call me at (415) 255-6213.

Lower Back Pain Reduction and even complete Lower Back Pain Elimination without any medications! I had learned how to do this around 1967, without any medical operation or any pain killer medications, when I was twenty-one years old and I have experienced a wonderful active life for an additional 50 years beyond what Medical Specialists told me was unavoidable! I had realized that when people have a serious injury where they lose an arm or a leg, their brain initially receives horrific pain signals. However, somehow, their brains LEARN how to IGNORE pain signals from portions of their bodies which no longer exist. Their brains HAVE to do this, or else they would forever be consumed in processing pain signals from sources which actually no longer exist. By (somehow) selectively ignoring all such spurious messages, then their brains could better deal with all the complex processes of getting through daily life. Out of shear desperation, and in continuous horrific pain of my lower back, I decided to TRY to get MY brain to (somehow) treat my lower back in such a manner. I had no idea of how to do it, but I considered myself to be decently intelligent. Three different Specialist Doctors in early 1967 had each assured me that I would be in a wheelchair by my twenty-fifth birthday, which was less than four years away, because of how messed up my lower back vertebrae were (and still are). When I was nineteen, I did an incredibly stupid thing in trying to impress a cute local girl. I regularly rebuilt car engines and I did not have a mechanical hoist to lift the engines out of and into the cars that I was paid to rebuild the engines. One day, when I had just gotten a V-8 engine out of a Ford pickup truck, a cute girl was walking by. For some macho reason, I thought she would be impressed if I carried that entire V-8 engine under my right arm! I did not realize that girls had no idea that such an engine weighed around 350 pounds! In any case, it was clear that she had not been impressed. I only carried that engine around 20 feet, but the SIDEWAYS STRESS of carrying it that way caused the lowest four of my back vertebrae to become shifted over sideways about 3/8 inch, to the next vertebra up from them. I am not sure if that affected the muscles in my back, and Orthopedic Specialists later informed me that the only real effect on me had to do with the HOLES through the disk vertebrae through which my spinal cord had to pass. Before I did that stupid thing when I was 19, my spinal cord had had plenty of room to pass through my entire back, as is true of virtually everyone. One of my lower back vertebrae is shifted over sideways about three-eights of an inch (10 mm) over the vertebrae beneath it. This greatly restricts the space for my Spinal Cord to pass through, and it is so restricted that my Spinal Cord has always been constantly pressed against the (relative sharp) inside edge of the vertebrae (bone) opening on both vertebrae L-3 and L4. This results in two concerns. One is the one that I have successfully dealt with, that of getting my brain to not pay attention to those specific nerve endings where the Spinal Cord rubs against both vertebrae bones whenever there is the slightest movement in my body. The other is scarier to me, that of the likely WEAR of the outer nerve fibers in my Spinal Cord during my life. The Specialist Doctors did not know whether my entire Spinal Cord would fail, where I would have immediately become a paraplegic, or whether individual nerve fibers might wear away such that I would lose incremental contact with my lower extremities, whether about moving specific muscles or sensing specific nerves such as for heat or cold, pressure, etc. So far, 2017, I still seem to be fully active, and even though I have been alert to possibly losing some sensations in my feet or legs, I am not aware (yet) that that has yet happened. At the time in 1967, all three Specialist Doctors wanted me to submit myself to an extreme medical operation, where each of the three admitted that the operation alone might put me in that wheelchair! I was not impressed, but I realized that even very smart Doctors still often have to improvize during major Operations, and I would not agree to that. None of those three Specialists seemed to have any clue about how to SHIFT my entire backbone 3/8-inch sideways in 1967. I am not sure that Specialists in 2017 have yet figured out how to do that! I am obviously not a Medical Doctor, but I had formed my own idea of a possible idea. But all three of the Specialists were very arrogant, and none were interested in listening to a mere Physicist student about their specialty! But I had decided that the ONLY possibility that I might have then agreed to regarding a 1967 operation would have been an EXTERIOR CLAMP, around those two specific vertebrae. I imagined a C-clamp idea where once the clamp was around the two vertebrae, its screw would have beened tightened, to (slowly) SQUEEZE the two vertebrae to move them into better alignment, so their holes for my spinal cord might then have been more open! The conversations with those Back Specialists in 1967 convinved me that I should just try to live whatever life I might still have available, apparently less than three years, and so I decided to TRAVEL. The US Government had just made available a 'Golden Eagle Pass', for $20, which got me into around a hundred National Parks and Monuments, and it often even included a free space to put up my little pup tent! My atttitude was that I wanted to get the greatest diversity of experiences that I could, which I might look at during a life in a wheelchair. I hiked and climbed nearly constantly for the following three years! After my 25th Birthday, I have considered every day to be 'gravy', as being one more day of activity before my life in a Chair. I knew that many thousands of people lose an arm or leg in a serious accident or due to some medical condition or disease. During my many conversations with those three Back Specialists, I thought a lot about what the person's brain did. Normally, the brain receives sensory inputs from thousands of individual nerve endings in that arm or leg, which detect heat, cold, pressure, and specifically, various levels of pain. The brain constantly has a lot to do, so when there is not much going on near a specific nerve ending, the brain somehow is able to ignore any (minor) stimuli information from that nerve. Otherwise, the brain would be overwhelmed by tens of thousands of nervous system signals from every skin cell that describes the air temperature near that skin cell, and the brain might not have much time left to be able to think about evading a predator or finding food. So now that person has an arm severed. What happens? Immediately, there ARE thousands of nerve signals sent to the brain, which each alert the brain to some major change, that is, the normal messages identifying the air temperature and local pressure and other variables, are now totally different. The brain might not realize that they are different because those nerve endings no longer exist, but it receives an overwhelming number of messages, many of which describe severe pain. This is Medically referred to as Trauma. For some minutes, the brain IS overwhelmed by so much information and especially so much pain information. Logically, that overwhelming amount of nervous system messages should continue for the rest of that person's life, as the arm is never going to grow back. But humans (and nearly all other animals) need to be able to think clearly, because that severe injury might have been part of continuing danger, such as being bitten by a shark, and it is very important that the person try to do solid thinking to try to escape, or to climb out of a burning car, etc. So the brains of humans and most other animals developed an amazing ability! In order to be able to think clearly about urgent circumstances, the brain (somehow) developed the ability to SHUT OFF incoming nerve signals from that arm, after a suitable time, usually minutes but sometimes even just seconds. And so the brain proceeds as though THERE IS NO ARM TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT (whether there still is or not). And hopefully, the now clearer-thinking brain comes up with some plan to keep the situation from being even worse, like kicking at the shark or breaking a car window to escape. I often refer to this as my brain IGNORING nerve stimuli signals that are extremely repetitive. If you tap on one of your fingers over and over in the same place, after a few minutes, you will notice that the pain of the hammering seems to fade and even disappear. Hypnotists can convince a subject that a bowl of water is comfortably warm, even though the water is filled with ice cubes. A Zimbardo Psychology program on PBS demonstrated that with a smiling young man not being aware of how cold the ice water was. All this convinced me that my brain SHOULD be able to (somehow) ignore pain messages from a small area of my lower back. And, over a period of a number of weeks, my brain (somehow) learned to do that! No one actually knows HOW the brain does this, but we certainly know that it can and does. In fact, people who have lost an arm or leg sometimes mention that they 'feel something' even years later, so the nerve paths still exist and the brain CAN still detect them. It just CHOOSES to ignore virtually all sensory input from that arm or leg, because of needing to be unencumbered by such constant irrelevant messages to be able to do all the things the brain needs to do every day. So when I was about 21 years old, in 1967, I was in excruciating back pain. I was then in Graduate School, and I had previously realized that I better schedule all my Classes for afternoon, as it often took me all morning to sit up in bed and then become standing upright. I did most of my homework while lying flat on my back in bed, as that seemed to be the ONLY position where I could endure the pain! But that is about when I thought through all the logic described above, where the brain MUST have a natural built-in capability of 'blocking sensory input'. I concluded that MY brain MUST have the capability of blocking all sensory input from the lower several vertebrae of my back! Then I just had to discover how to learn how to enable it! I think that my approach at the time was exactly the OPPOSITE of what might seem logical or even obvious. It might seem a good idea to try to IGNORE the pain, expecting the brain to buy into that. I imagine that some people have successfully used that approach. But I did exactly the opposite of that! I CONSTANTLY FOCUSED on the pain, and for several weeks, I rarely thought of anything else. My idea was to see if I could OVERWHELM my brain with powerful pain signals, trying to never let up at that (except while sleeping, of course). My idea was to try to get my brain sick and tired of constantly and continuously having to deal with lower back pain messages. Yes, this DID result in even more horrific pain than I had become used to having to survive. I used NO pain killers at all, WANTING to increase the level of pain to my level of endurance, and sometimes even beyond that. I remember times when I would start to cry from the intensity of pain, but I knew that I could not give up. The process took me many weeks. I managed to develop a level of FOCUS that I had not previously thought I was capable of! I THINK this is what happened in me. By trying to eliminate thinking about anything else, I think I created a situation where my brain was minimally occupied elsewhere, where its primary activity, by default, was in receiving and processing endless pain signals from the small area in my lower spine where all that pain was coming from. My theory was that maybe I could get my brain to get sick and tired of getting the SAME pain signals, every second of every day, where my brain might apply its natural and built-in ability to start to block pain messages from that small area of my body. I don't actually know whether that happened as I had theorized. But I DID notice that after many days of this extreme focusing, the INTENSITY of the pain seemed to have gotten SLIGHTLY less! THIS was now new motivation that I was getting somewhere! Once I realized that my idea seemed to be working, I noticed that the effect of reducing the pain seemed to proceed nicely after that! Within a couple months, I again had a full and active life. I still did not like early Classes, but I then could get up and around in a few seconds every morning instead of requiring several hours to get out of bed. I even became a prominent starter on the College's Men's Volleyball Team, where we traveled all over the Midwest to compete with many other College Teams (and won our share!) My back was (and is) still physiologically screwed up very terribly, and I STILL have no interest in any Orthopedic Surgeon trying to shift any of my lower back vertebra by half an inch laterally! One of my lower back vertebra is shifted sideways nearly half an inch, where my spinal column inside them barely has enough room to squeeze through from one to the other. Most of my pain was apparently due to the physical stresses on my (squeezed) spinal column rubbing against the inner edges of those two vertebrae whenever I make any movements at all. But once my brain CHOSE to ignore all sensory information from that part of my body, I have generally always been able to have the very active life which I have lived for the following 50 years! There are a few minor quirks which exist due to my approach. (1) When I first wake up every morning, my brain has NOT been in its pain-blocking mode during the night, so I DO wake up with considerable back pain. But as I become conscious, my brain seems to reliably and quickly get into its pain-blocking mode, and so WITHIN ONE OR TWO SECONDS, the lower back pain disappears every morning. (2) I happen to be a person who sneezes quite enthusiastically! My whole body briefly shakes as a result of a sneeze, and these are vibrations that my brain is not used to dealing with. So a sneeze generally results in a VERY BRIEF sensation of pain from my lower back, but in less than half a second, the shaking and vibration is done and my brain gets back to eliminating my lower back pain. This IS a little annoying, but the effect is so brief that I have come to accept it. I have watched people who 'sneeze quietly' and I have sometimes asked them if they might be able to teach me how they do that. None have so far, and I now simply accept that I sneeze enthusiastically! (3) There ARE a few activities which I gave up, such as riding the small Honda 150 motorcycle I then had. The suspension and seat on that small bike were not very good so there was always a lot of vibration, from simply the tires on the pavement. I am not sure that most people even notice that vibration, but I certainly did. I think that the IRREGULARITY of those vibrations caused differences enough that my lower back was probably sending CHANGING messages to my brain, which were so rapid that it could not ignore all of them. So riding that small motorcycle was still a very painful experience! Much later, I bought a REALLY cushioned seat for my bicycle, which cost more than the bicycle did, but that bicycle now rides so smooth that I have NO sensation of back issues. (4) The fourth effect is one that even I consider to be very peculiar! Say I am hammering nails in some project and I manage to smash my thumb with the hammer. Nearly anyone would feel intense pain in that thumb, but not me! Apparently, such a blunder caused my brain to briefly have a new focus of attention, and the result has always been that I would immediately have instantaneous and severe lower back pain! All from smashing my thumb or dropping something heavy on my toe! But, in a few seconds, the severe pain due to the thumb subsides, and my brain then seems to get back to its important work, that of blocking pain signals from my lower back! The approach which I have used might not be the only one available for learning how to get the brain to develop this response pattern. In fact, I had great doubts when I first started trying it, of trying to eliminate all other thoughts to let my brain think about almost nothing OTHER than that constant and intense back pain. It seems somewhat counter-intuitive to choose to FOCUS my brain's activity on the one thing I wanted it to ignore! So there may be better ways. I just described the method I used because it has WORKED for me for 50 years! One other detail: Early on, my brain came to ignore virtually all my back pain when I was stationary, but as soon as I moved, it went back to detecting and acting on the pain messages. THAT part developed more slowly, where it was probably several months before my brain simply ignored ALL sensory pain input from that area of my body, including when there was any motion involved. IF you experience back-pain, especially if it is similar to the overwhelming back pain which I constantly endured, you currently think you only have one course, having a Doctor prescribe some powerful medication, like Morphine. I did not want to even consider such a course, because I had known several people who had quickly become addicted to such pain-killing medications. I wonder what might have happened to me if my approach had not worked, as I like to believe that I would always have resisted having to rely on such powerful drugs to get pain down to manageable levels. As it happens, once my brain learned how to ignore sensory input messages from my lower back, I rarely even sense ANY back discomfort at all. Not just Pain Reduction, but absolute ELIMINATION of all lower back pain! In those following 50 years, I have NEVER taken anthing other than generic aspirin, except for the itching of Poison Ivy! If you ALREADY use powerful drugs to deal with pain, I wonder if this approach would work, or whether it would work as totally as it has for me. I also note that I developed this while I was still fairly young, and I wonder if an 'old brain could learn new tricks'. I think it should be able to, but I wonder if the older person is capable of developing the extreme level of focus which I considered central in my learning this process. I hope it is possible, and I hope that someone might even discover a faster or easier method to develop what I have long used. I have long had one idea along that line, but have never known anyone who might see cause to try it! If you followed the LOGIC of this presentation, you should know that YOUR brain already HAS the needed capabilities and skills. In other words, 100% success seems very likely, as it has been for me for the past 50 years. I have been very skeptical of how safe all the thousands of powerful drugs are which are sold to the American public, or used on that American public by Doctors. In my opinion, giant Corporations are in such a hurry to make billions in profits that I feel that many drugs are put on the market far before they have been truly proven safe. I believed this since I was a teenager in the early 1960s, and so I have virtually never taken ANY medications, except for generic Aspirin and topical cremes for poison ivy and such, in my entire life. Usually, in the first few years of having a new Doctor, the Doctor tends to do the wild perscription game which nearly all patients insist on. I have always been the opposite, and my Doctors eventually learned that IF they see extreme need for prescribing something, they had to give a Perry Mason argument to me regarding WHY I should actually take it! And when I have argued against that, the Doctors have usually backed off! In addition, most medical drugs affect the entire body, even though they are often prescribed to reduce pain in one specific area, such as in a lower back or an elbow or knee. My method obviously has no chemical dependence problems but it is also extremely specific regarding location. If I happen to injure a foot or knee or wrist, I feel the same pain sensations that anyone else feels. Just not if the pain is related to my lower back. I have noticed something else. As a good scientist, I always want to keep learning, so I once did some experiments where I strapped an ice cube against the skin of that specific area of my lower back, and I certainly was aware of the cold and of the wetness as the cube was melting. I also tried using a heating pad on my back as I laid on my stomach, to see if there might have been a 'donut hole' in the middle of the warmth, but there was no difference regarding the sensation of warmth. I conclude that my brain geenrally does not block ALL nerve sensations from that area, but somehow only seems to block the pain sensations! I have NO idea how my brain does that! But it is certainly wonderful! I think I have something that you might be able to try to see if you might be able to get your brain to do what I have done. Every day, you feel tiny 'itches' or 'irritations'. You naturally just rub or scratch the area of your skin that has that sensation and you make it go away. What I suggest is to NOT rub or scratch! Instead, try to get your brain to briefly FOCUS on the irritation and try to get your brain to STOP reacting to whatever caused that specific constant itch or irritation. I am pretty sure you can LEARN how to do this very quickly. It seems a little weird when you first do it! But once you learn how to do this for really minor sensations, you will have a better understanding of how to accomplish getting your brain to ignore the pain of more serious situations. I really believe that virtually everyone can do what I have successfully done for 50 years. Try it! For the record, during those 50 following years, I have NEVER used any Meds regarding back pain, and in fact, never any Medication at all with the exception of generic aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid). I also have never needed to use any Back Brace, although I DID buy one around 30 years ago. It is essentially unused, except for a couple times when I had curiosity about what it did! I have never experienced the pain of Arthritis, but I wonder if this approach might be of possible value for any of the millions of people who do have various forms of Arthritis. Currently, they are each SOLD powerful chemicals that are presented as medicines, which never actually CURE anything but instead have the single potential function of reducing pain. Wouldn't it be wonderful if such chemicals were unnecessary? That possibly the person's own brain might be TAUGHT to selectively ignore certain types of sensory inputs? Since I have personally been able to do this beginning around 1967, and have experienced a relatively pain-free life of lower back pain for the following 50 years, it seems to me that it might be worth the effort for Arthritis sufferers to try it for themselves! Again, it took me several months of pretty focused attention before my lower back pain 'seemed to totally disappear', but, in my opinion, it is worth trying to do! Maybe there are other types of chronic pain which might also be alleviated by this approach. Feel free to try! Late in 2013, PBS is using a Medical Doctor to try to get viewers to send money into their PBS Stations. The Doctor is Lissa Rankin, M.D., who has written several interesting books. Her PBS program discusses many things, regarding many types of pain and illness and suffering, some of which seem remarkably similar to the approach I began using in 1967. Her PBS program also mentioned a Doctor Benson, who, during the 1960s studied related matters, but where the Doctor was specifically looking at a part of the brain called the Amygdala. That structure is apparently responsible for the fear, anger and aggression that all animals need during survival situations. It provides the motivation and response for 'fight or flight' and other sudden and urgent needs. In humans, Dr. Benson found that we trigger the Amygdala as many as 50 times every day, due to work stresses, relationship stresses and other fears and stresses of modern society. More recently, Dr. Rankin and others have found different areas of the brain which react to 'placebo effects' where the patient THINKS that he or she had been given some important medicine, but where the brain (somehow) creates the benefits which might have come from the actual medicine. They also have found that the brain also can create 'nocebo effects', apparently mostly by the Amygdala, to CANCEL the beneficial effects of actual drugs, and to generate bad effects on the body, without any actual cause. I am tempted to encourage people to read Dr. Rankin's six books, particularly one called 'Mind Over Medicine'. I have the distinct impression that those Medical Doctors are approaching modern curing and chronic pain reduction without having to resort to powerful chemicals, where their approach struck me as surprisingly similar to my NON-Medical approach, one that was only created because I was then (1967) a Theoretical Physics Student in University! It seems to me that the comments presented by Dr. Rankin seem to provide strong medical confirmation for my approach, which until now had only had the ANECDOTAL evidence of my having lived 50 extra happy and active years (WITHOUT any medications!) In my personal case, I have noticed that as of mid-2015, my brain has been slightly less effective at doing this. After about 47 years, I wonder if I might now start to need Meds! I am thinking that my now-elderly brain might not be as good at truly excellent concentration, and it may now be less effective at deleting my lower back pain. The Jury is still out on this so I don't really know for sure. However, about twenty years ago, I invented yet another approach to this lower back pain problem. It does NOT require the extreme concentraqtion to duplicate what I have achieved. At the time, I thought a bunch of companies would want to jump on an opportunity to begin a business that would certainly earn them at least $50 million each year in net profits, but no companies have seemed to be interested so far. A brief reference to it is at Lumbar back pain eliminator as a variation on a portable Traction device. My prototype for it only cost around $23 for materials and a couple hours to assemble it. I would be willing to talk to anyone about it.

Special thanks to Oneware for sponsoring this great service and Brian Ibbott of Coverville Media for helping us out. On the subject of net neutrality a debate that is going on in the Congress, and it’s really: Is the Internet going to be something that everyone has free and open access to, or, is it going to be something that is sort of controlled? What we don’t need is a lot of government control in the businesses of the internet. I think what we need is more of what we have with National Public Radio, which is a really true and balanced set of reporting that unfortunately has become politicized. What we are seeing is a shift from “anything goes” on the Internet to a shift where major corporations are shaping the news outlets and buying up more and more of the news outlets and putting them under corporate control and one set of a small number of hands…. We need freeware, we need shareware, and we need open access. People need to be able to trust sources that they can find on the internet, rather than have them controlled in a small number of hands or by the government.” (Gibson appeared on the Charlottesville, VA, interview program Politics Matters with host Jan Paynter discussing journalism bit.ly/pm-gibson) In accordance with The Municipal Act, a municipality may either charge a business tax or license to any business facilities within the Rural Municipality of St. Andrews. By-Law #4053 governs and regulates business activities and it is a requirement to carry an approved license to all business operations. Section 6 of this By-Law states: "No person shall carry on any business without having a license from the R.M. of St. Andrews". In recent months, the By-Law Enforcement Officer has been confirming that all businesses carry licensing. A business license is an annual fee of up to $100 depending on the nature of the business and is active for the complete calendar year ending December 31st of each year. If you are an active business with no license, you would be guilty of an offense and are liable for conviction to pay a fine not exceeding $500 and not less than $200. Please make sure that you have a license! Business license applications can be picked up at the Municipal Office or you can obtain one by clicking on this link: Business License Application Form. Pacific Highway between Turramurra and Wahroonga - Sydney North - Projects - Roads and Maritime Services The NSW Government is investigating Pacific Highway upgrades as part of its $300 million Urban Roads Pinch Point Program, which aims to reduce congestion and improve travel times on Sydney's busiest corridors. Roads and Mariti review all feedback. A community consultation report will be prepared summarising the feedback received and our responses to matters raised by the community during the consultation period. To further inform corridor upgrade planning and development we will carry out additional investigation work at the intersections of Pacific Highway and Fox Valley Road and Pacific Highway and Coonanbarra Road. We will be on site for 10 day shifts and 10 night shifts between Monday 17 September and Friday 30 November 2018, weather permitting. We sought community feedback on potential Pacific Highway upgrades, between Turramurra and Wahroonga. The consultation period had been extended from Friday 28 September to Friday 5 October 2018. Roads and Maritists experience heavy congestion, slow travel times and delays when travelling between Turramurra and Wahroonga, particularly during the afternoon peak period. Roads and Maritime proposes to widen the Pacific Highway to provide three continuous northbound lanes and maintain the three continuous southbound lanes along this section of the busy corridor. Road widening and other proposed improvements would provide significant benefits for the 60,000 motorists who use the Pacific Highway every day, particularly in the afternoon peak for motorists travelling northbound. improved road safety along the corridor through removal of right turn movements at Finlay Road, Marshall Avenue and Coonanbarra Road improved pedestrian and road user safety at the intersection of the Pacific Highway and Redleaf Avenue by removing the southbound slip lane and providing a pedestrian refuge on Redleaf Avenue improved road safety at the intersections of the Pacific Highway at Fox Valley Road, and the Pacific Highway at Coonanbarra Road and Redleaf Avenue, by realigning the curve of the road and traffic lanes.
My visit to Metro Community Church on Sunday just won’t leave my mind. Never in my life have I seen a church so Christ-like. Never have I seen a church so caring, so loving, so forgiving. Never have I seen the homeless so at home. I felt evil sat in the car with Linda outside the church as the homeless queueing up the cold street waiting for the doors to open. There were about thirty people just queueing at the doors. When the doors were unlocked they could hardly get in there any faster. As Linda drove off I felt a moment of tension as I entered a world of unknown. In the now busy building which would grow to some three-hundred people there were couches, chairs and tables. Another queue had begun to form, so being an Englishmen I joined it. I had been previously told they provide food for all attendees of the church here, and that’s precisely what I got. And what a buffet it was. Good, sustainable and healthy food. Sandwiches with meat, vegetables and fruit. And the Canadian water; coffee. They get more than just homeless, although they make up 95% of the congregation. There were a couple of families and children there too. It creates an interesting dynamic to the leadership there who created the church to meet the homeless population who were largely unreached in the down-town area. As I was looking for a place to sit I noticed two guys who had come into the Hope Centre during the week, and as I approached one beckoned me to join, so I did. We had a little banter around the table talking openly and plainly. There’s a more rustic feel to this church than you would find anywhere else. The slogan “where prejudices are left at the door” really did fit this church well. After some time of eating and chatting came a time of prayer and worship. Although I wouldn’t say everyone joined in, a good 75% did. The remaining few, for whatever reason kept to themselves, perhaps there for the free food, perhaps there silently processing things. Then came the open microphone time. This is what I loved the most about this church. It was a time simply to open up the microphone to anyone in the building that wanted to share something. There’s so many stories which are still echoing in my mind. A woman who was praising God that she got to see her daughter alone for the first time in four years after she has been recovering from drug and eating problems. A man giving some words of encouragement to the leadership who have been struggling through some hard issues. A man who has been travelling the whole of Canada looking for work, asking for prayer as he would be leaving the church to carrying on his journey to find work. And this is where the humility shone through; a leader simply poured his heart ache out as his grandfather has died, but there was no way he could travel the vast distance to make it to the funeral. Each time a story was told a few would gather around the scratched up floor of the part-time night club to pray for them. Praising God for His love over this person, and praying for blessing in their situation. Ever centring Christ around them; asking God to work miracles in their lives. You know, not once did I hear someone moan. I didn’t hear the man searching for work say Canada is useless, he just praised God for providing him warmth from the snow and food for his stomach. They say a sign of a good church is when a hour service feels like ten minutes, and a sign of a bad church is when ten minutes feels like an hour. That service felt like just minutes, but after three hours the preacher had only just risen to the platform. My heart just pours out to these guys. Most are searching for food, shelter and God. Despite their struggles and failings, the church leaves the prejudices against some of their drug and alcohol addiction at the doors and welcomes them inside. Its exactly what Jesus would have done, its exactly what He did do, and its all too common that we don’t do it. What worries me for these homeless is the weather here. Minus 25 degree Celsius it was in Kelowna today. There has been a fair deal of snow, and I can tell you; on my thirty minute walk to church this morning there were no footprints in the snow apart from mine. It is so cold that even the Canadians aren’t venturing in this weather. And its getting worse, weather reports suggests a snow storm to clip British Columbia in the west Americas. I pray that in the potential minus forty degrees and the potential snow storms, that these guys will find somewhere to stay warm. I’ve heard too many stories already of the homeless found dead in the parks and alleyways. Mate this is brilliantly written. It’s incredible how your experiences there are impacting you and what you say is powerfully moving. It’s incredible that you walked 30 minutes in that weather. I know what -25 feels like. I don’t miss it!!! Sounds silly, but seriously – please be careful and make sure you wrap up warm! Wow – what an experience Chris. Always a challenge when you are caught up in an authentic church. Spot on blog. Love it.Praying for you my friend – keep safe and keep close to him!

I could be very wrong but I kind of think that's what he's looking for at this stage, especially for his wife and kids Come on, Michael, you don't move to the second largest media market in the United States to fly under the radar. Remember, at this stage in his career, he's "chasing a ghost." His legacy is important to him. He is going to a franchise that is NBA royalty and the expectations will be tremendous, and if LeBron doesn't understand that, he will soon enough. There won't be as forgiving a fan base in Los Angeles as there was in Cleveland and Miami. As for his business interests, James' production company is doing just fine, thank you, and he built it up during his time in Cleveland. I doubt a change of address is going to change that. Durant has proven time and time again he cares WAY too much what the public thinks of him (and somehow continually makes the choices that negatively affect that) so take this with a grain of salt: DURANT: I have mentors like Ron Conway [early-stage Google and PayPal investor] and Ben Horowitz [co-founder of Silicon Valley venture capital fund Andreessen Horowitz] and good friendships with guys like Chris Lyons [chief of staff for Andreessen Horowitz]. I mean, you just go to dinner with these guys, hang out with them. You start to meet these types of people at games. It's a little easier being here than saying, "Let's meet up when I come in from Oklahoma." Given that you can reach anybody at anytime anywhere in the world simply by clicking a mouse, you can conduct business easily in the comfort of your home. The difference is the close connection now to Magic and all of the Hollywood elite that will be clamoring to get close to Lebron. His mentor today was not his mentor yesterday in Cleveland during the season. I think LeBron has already experienced that, since he spent most of his recent off-seasons in Los Angeles. Certainly, the accessibility will be ramped up, but I don't think it's going to be a radical change to what he is already somewhat accustomed. I will absolutely agree with you that Magic will widen that circle, but that was my point in a previous post: Magic is bigger than LeBron in Los Angeles, and always will be, regardless what success LeBron has with the Lakers. He won't be the favorite son, and THAT is a key difference between his current address and his previous stops. Now, he's the hired gun, not the coddled Kid from Akron. I think the bottom line is there's a lot more business opportunity and big money investors in southern California and Silicon Valley than there are in northeast Ohio and Oklahoma. LeBron's already been the hired gun and the villain before. Even if he wants to be worshipped like the most famous person in town, he'd rather brand build and progress towards being a billionaire. Kyrie has quite a handle, but there is just no way that he has handled as many balls as Amy Schumer has. by selling Hustle to Legendary Entertainment. His company is going to do a reboot of House party which he will be a producer and there are plans for his headliner role in a new comedy. Obviously the move to LA frees up much needed time beyond what's required to be the best basketball player in the world. Sometimes being the best player in the world, a father, a husband, a studio owner, a producer, an aspiring actor, working your way into the billionaire club might be just as rewarding as being the " coddled kid from Akron. " With that resume and his future who cares if Magic is the favorite son. He is using Magic as an end to a means. The Lakers need Lebron right now more than he needs them. It will be interesting to see how it all plays out. As usual LeBron is in the Catbird seat and is looking like a genius despite was some in Ohio think. My thinking is he was already headed there anyway. Of course, LA needs LeBron more than he needs them. That would have been true any place he landed. To me, the move to LA isn't because he is in "championship mode." He is positioning himself for life after basketball. Do you think this signals that his top priority is no longer basketball but business? Yes and no. Business is a huge part of it, but I don't think he believed he had any realistic options, Cleveland or otherwise, to win a title over the next 1-2 years due to the Warriors' dominance. Part of this move IMO is that he's willing to struggle for 1-2 years in LA because he knows that their rookie contract players will allow them to trade for or have the ability to sign two more star players over the next 24 months. Outside of LeBron and the two remaining years of Luol Deng's deal, the Lakers' payroll is going to be entirely rookie scale and expiring deals for the next two years. By that time, Golden State will have to make some serious spending decisions, especially Thompson next summer, which could even the playing field some and make winning realistic again. Their tax situation may force them to downsize to having three stars (KD, Curry and Green) after this season. This time next year, I expect LeBron to at least have Leonard, maybe more. Good question. At his age and with the NBA miles he has on him the move gives him the best of both worlds. Hopefully there is a championship run in him and no doubt he will be focused. No idea if the bright lights and the Hollywood mogul lifestyle changes his priorities. He did a heck of a job juggling his career prior to this move.
1966, and the Animals were slowly coming apart, but there was one last blast of agony to come before they devolved into going to San Francisco, discovering future rock stars and other less strenuous activities. By now they had moved away from Mickie Most and Columbia towards Decca and Tom Wilson, a man who had or was producing records by Cecil Taylor and the Velvet Underground - indeed the production of "Inside - Looking Out" immediately preceded that of the first Velvets album. Although subsequently ruined by Grand Funk Railroad, whose 1971 9:53 33 rpm 7-inch live version held the title of longest UK hit single prior to the emergence of the 12-inch, "Inside - Looking Out" is one of the bloodiest and least inhibited of singles even by 1966's notoriously bloody standards. It was their penultimate hit but already they looked set to vapourise. It begins with huge slamming cell doors of beats as Burdon beats a chain around his own head, unsure whether to be scared or glad of his confinement; the operatic weeping "surroundin' me" is counterbalanced and perhaps negated by the proto-Iggy purr of "sympathy, yeah" in the next line. However, the tension immediately bubbles upwards; I can't think of any of its chart contemporaries musing about keeping themselves sane in a burning oven - and then he goes into overdrive; he might be chanting "my reason" but it sounds much more like "rebirth" and he shrieks it over and over as Hilton Valentine's guitar snaps and gurgles behind him (and with Dave Rowberry's organ one is already thinking: this is already beyond the Doors) before giving way to a hysterical and eventually arrhythmic call-and-response of "yeah"s and "baby"s as the group turns into a self-loathing machine gun. Burdon sweats over his caressed "canvas bags" as the music subsides back into the verse, but once more there's an explosion of screams and feedback. Eventually Valentine has no option but to go onomatopoeically out behind Burdon's grunts, whispers and pleas, loving her, wanting her, demanding her freedom - and given the involvement of Chas Chandler it sounds like a direct precedent to and negation of Hendrix's "Stone Free" as though they are laying the ground for Jimi to coruscate. Again, Burdon whips the band up for the final onslaught :"Can't you feel my love? Can't you see my skill?") as the music eventually throttles itself towards orgasmic release. All this in three minutes and 45 seconds; it's as though all of rock had been condensed and squeezed into this tiny oven and challenged to survive and thrive. It took the man from Seattle to pick up the gauntlet that it fearlessly thrusted onto an unwilling ground.

They were HUGE like a leaf size of my palm, no kidding! I which I took a pic, I don’t know why I didn’t. So anyways, I used in lots of different foods and one day, I decided to make basil pesto! Sounded SO good, and it turned out deliciously!! handful of not-toasted nuts* (such as pine nuts but this time I used cashew just because I had in my pantry.) Add all in food processor accept evoo, and ground until everything combined evenly. Start adding evoo slowly with the machine is on. Taraaaa~!! You have homemade basil pesto, pretty authentic one, in your food processor!!! Now put that into refrigerator if you are not using it in 10 minutes. Today I made open sandwich with basil pesto. I was so happy with the fresh taste of the pesto so I didn’t want to ruin it by using too much other ingredients. I decided to go very simple. Rustic bread that sliced and toasted (I used ciabatta), spread some awesomely fresh&delish pesto, pile up with sliced fresh mozzarella, Roma tomatoes, and pan-fried chicken breast. I seasoned with salt and pepper, simple as that. OMG, Jacob and I LOVED that simpleness of the food. Especially we eat lots of exotic Asian food at home, some times, food like this simple we really appreciated.

The $100K entry-level job you can get here in Canada | Tech Industry | Business Skills, Designing, Marketing, Programming Whether you’re figuring out your first career path or looking to change directions, a new series from Global News, Hot Jobs, focuses on career strategy for a new era in work. Imagine landing a $100,000 job straight out of school and without the oppressive student debt that usually comes with an MBA, a law degree or at the end of medical school. Until recently, that was the stuff of Silicon Valley dreams. But a Global News inquiry suggests that top graduates in Canada’s own tech industry are increasingly crossing the six-figure mark for entry-level jobs that don’t always require an advanced degree. “There’s a one per cent unemployment rate in IT in Canada right now,” said Jonathan Ward of Ward Technology Talent, a Toronto-based recruiter. The IT world Ward is talking about has little to do with the traditional tech-help desk in charge of keeping company computers running and dealing with the inevitable printer jam. Even including more traditional IT jobs, the unemployment rate was a low 2.6 per cent in the sector in 2017, according to Canada’s Information and Communications Technology Council (ICTC). Instead, what’s driving up salaries for tech graduates is cutthroat competition to hire the best and brightest tech graduates to work on data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), and, more recently, blockchain. It isn’t just startups racing to snatch Canada’s top tech talent. Corporate giants from virtually every corner of the economy — be it big banks, insurance companies, law firms or retailers — have joined the fray. Some have built entirely new work spaces — like Scotiabank’s Digital Factory and Loblaw Digital with loft-like ceilings, exposed brick, and things like ping-pong tables and bowling alleys — that reproduce what corporate wisdom holds as the natural environment for young techies. The volume of AI-related job postings on online employment search site Indeed Canada has more than doubled over the past year and a half, according to data provided by the company to Global News. Before 2017, such openings were rare, said Brendon Bernard, an economist at Indeed. Last year, he added, is “when the action really started.” The boom in AI-related jobs has come as faster and cheaper computers allow companies to sift through enormous volumes of data to spot useful patterns and make predictions. And coders are using big data to train so-called artificially intelligent machines, software that is capable of autonomous learning. The applications are seemingly endless: from the ability to recognize and tackle fraud in real time, through predicting customers’ needs to teaching a car to drive itself. Blockchain, meanwhile, makes it possible to create permanent digital records of transactions, a technological feat that has piqued the interest of the financial industry, among others. All this has created formidable demand for a limited number of graduates who can create a piece of software that can learn to sift through legal documents or predict a spike in hospital bed occupancy. It’s hard to know exactly how many such graduates Canada produces every year, because they may come from several different departments and universities generally track numbers by faculty. But one thing seems clear: employers are willing to pay big bucks to attract them. A smaller data set provided to Global News by Advanced-HR, a San Francisco-based source of compensation data from venture capital and private companies, shows that salaries for entry-level data scientists in Canada are typically between the mid-$50,000 and mid-$70,000 but can reach $100,000. The data is similar to what you’d see for larger companies traded on the stock exchange, said Dee DiPietro, founder and CEO of Advanced-HR. The highest salary in that data set was $104,000, which was for a Canada-based data science job at a U.S. company, “where the Canadian pay practice has been influenced by a different practice.” But that could become more common as the U.S.’s politics and tough stance on immigration make it more difficult for Silicon Valley to attract Canada’s top tech brains. “Trump is starting to work to our advantage,” Ward said. “It’s getting harder to find people to cross the border.” And anecdotal evidence suggests that the $100,000 entry-level job is no longer a unicorn for Canada’s data scientists. Star grads can hope for base pay of around $100,000 “in many cases,” said Larry Smith, director of the Problem Lab at the University of Waterloo and a longtime informal career counsellor at the school. While $100,000 is “on the high-end” of what an entry-level data scientist can expect to earn, it’s possible for someone to reach the six-figure mark straight out of school, said Colin Fraser, a data scientist at CHIMP, a Vancouver-based online platform for charitable giving. The salary floor for such jobs, he added, “is no less than $80,000 [a year] — and that’s for junior-level.” There is no degree in data science or AI. Usually, graduates taking up those jobs have majors in mathematics, statistics, computer science, or computer engineering, Smith said. Jobs in data analytics are accessible with a simple bachelor’s degree, while those in AI usually require an advanced degree, he added. Employers usually set up shop on campus in September to try to spot and attract top-notch techies at career fairs. In such a tight labour market, recruiting is a two-way street: It’s as much about finding the right people as it is about convincing them to come work for you instead of a competitor. For example, landing an entry-level job at Swift Medical, a Toronto-based medical technology startup, typically involves three interviews. It starts with a video call where candidates are asked about their interest in working for Swift and its mission of helping to improve hospital care. Then there’s a one-to-two hour in-person interview that includes lots of scribbling on a white board, as well as non-technical questions. And, the tech industry, like investments banks and global consultancies, is fond of brain teasers. Google, for example, reportedly used to ask questions like: How many golf balls can you fit into a school bus? And, how many piano tuners are there in the entire world? Teasers are one of the first things we do,” said Laura Niblett, who handles HR at Swift. They allow recruiters to see how candidates think on their feet and how they react to a question to which they don’t know the answer. The point, she added, to to gauge people’s attitude, more than their technical abilities. Your frame of mind and disposition matters, Ward said. In an field that’s constantly evolving, companies want to ensure that you are both eager to and able to learn on the fly. An engineering degree usually attracts attention, Niblett said. But someone with a degree in mathematics and lots of co-op experience in data analytics looks better on paper than an engineer with no internships on her or his resume, she added. In general it pays off to customize your university education, Smith said, be it via co-ops, side projects like starting your own business, and learning a few extra skills on your own. The job market for AI-related jobs is so young that there isn’t yet a broad consensus on what popular job titles really entail, Fraser said. Employers themselves may not always fully understand what specific role they need to hire, he added. Generally speaking, however, four common job titles are: data analyst, data scientist, data engineer and machine learning engineer. Data analyst. The job entails slicing and dicing data to look for relevant trends and what may be behind them. For example, a data analyst working at a telecoms company may look at company data to spot changes in customer churn rate and come up with hypotheses about what might have cause an unusual spike or decline in those numbers, Fraser said. These kinds of jobs have been around for some time but have recently started to include the use of some more sophisticated analytical techniques tied to A.I, he added. Most data analyst have a university education in a quantitative field, but, with a bit of “hustling” it is possible to get the gig without a degree, according to Fraser. The average salary for a data analyst is just over $61,000 according to Indeed. But Fraser said the job title has come to include such a broad spread of responsibilities that pay could be as low as the mid $40,000 for “someone looking at spreadsheets” and as high as the low end of what a junior data scientist would make. Data scientist. While a data analysts focuses on analysts existing sets of data to figure out what happened, data scientists use the data to come up with models to forecast what might happen next, Fraser said. At a more advanced level, that involves designing algorithms that will ideally learn to make better and better predictions. Data scientists often have advanced degrees and even PhDs, said Fraser, who confessed he felt “under-educated” with his degree in mathematics and economics from the University of British Columbia in his first job as a data scientist working for a Vancouver tech company. Having an advanced degree is often necessary because even if you majored in computer science, “you probably won’t know much about machine learning.” That knowledge tends to come through masters- and PhD-level classes and “hasn’t trickled down through to the undergraduate level yet,” Fraser said. Still, students can supplement their university education with AI-focused classes offered through online learning platforms like Coursera, Udemy and fast.ai. Those courses are often very well-regarded among employers, Fraser said. With a few online classes and some solid data science experience earned through internships, tech grads can get data science jobs without an advance degree, Fraser said. READ MORE: Are you earning a middle-class income? Here’s what it takes in Canada, based on where you live Data engineer/data warehouse engineer. Data is often messy and hard to access. If you wanted to analyze consumer spending patterns, for example, you need to know when they shopped, what they bought, their age and their gender. Each one of those data sets may be stored in a different database and format. That’s where data engineers come in, Fraser said. Their job is to provide data scientists with the building blocks they need to build their predictive models. Data engineering jobs usually require a degree in computer science or software engineering. The average salary on Indeed was nearly $86,000. Machine learning engineer. When it comes to AI algorithms, data scientists are more like product designers, Fraser said. “They come up with the idea.” Machine learning engineers are in charge of tweaking those algorithms to ensure optimal performance, he added. Top tech grads aren’t just nailing a big salary as soon as their enter the job market. They’re also paying the bills while they’re in school. Just ask Lisa Cooper. The University of Waterloo alum graduated in May with a degree in mecatronics engineering and, she said, not a single penny in student debt. Not only that, but she also has savings “in the high five-figures,” with which she’s hoping to buy a house before too long, she told Global News. The money comes from her co-op work, including two stints in Silicon Valley that earned her $100,000 over the course of eight months. Overall, those paycheques were enough to cover her $32,500 tuition costs not covered by scholarships and other benefits, as well as around the $35,000 in living expenses she estimates she spent through university. Once school is over, those who secure a job in data analytics or AI can look forward to work-life perks like free fitness and health classes, paid-for office meals, standing desks, plenty of work-from-home flexibility, and even “bring your dog to work” days, Ward said. And, he added, within a few years, they’ll advance to senior-level positions, which pay in the $100,000-$150,000 range, sometimes with signing bonuses of between $10,000 and $50,000. Instead, he added, every job candidate should “insist that [they] be told what the typical workweek looks like.” For example, a $100,000 paycheque works out to just $32 an hour before tax if you’re putting in 60 hours per week. That compares to $48 an hour before tax for a 40-hour-a-week job. Cooper, for one, said one of her Silicon Valley internships involved 15-hour days and often required work on weekends. “California was a great experience,” she said. “But it wasn’t a lifestyle that I found sustainable.” Another thing for new grads to watch out for is being asked to accept equity in exchange for lower-than-average pay. While company shares are a standard part of compensation in the tech industry, stocks “should be no reason to accept gross underpaying,” Smith said. Especially if you work at a startup, there is no guarantee that your equity will be worth anything, Ward said. Take unlimited vacation, for example. “People love the concept,” said Ward. What happens, though, is that they tend to take less time off. In an office where no one has a set number of weeks earmarked for down times, there is “no guarantee that a promotion won’t disappear because you took vacation,” Smith said. But the most important cautionary note about data analytics and AI jobs is that tech job hiring sprees tend to come and go. Back then, “every company needed a website,” he said. And while web designers are still in demand, the hiring surge is a thing of the past. By 2030, some 70 percent of companies might have adopted some kind of AI technology, a shift that could grow the global economy by as much as $13 trillion by 2030, according to McKinsey Global Institute. In Canada, there will be some 216,000 jobs in information and communications technology that will need to be filled by 2021, estimates the ICTC.
I usually eat breakfast at 11 or so since I cannot eat so early in the morning. Anyway, I decided to make a Taco Soup for the week, I also hard boiled some eggs and going to roast some Delicata squash and be ready for my week. Last week I had prepped a meal and I found it easy to eat during the week when something was already prepared. I also had a loss this past Saturday at my workshop so I am preparing myself for success and making mindful choices. #ww #wellnessthatworks #healthyeating #pickyeater #icandothis #nevergiveup #wwsmartpoints #weightlossjourney #wwdfw #wwdfwsisterhood #healthyrecipes #preppingforsuccess Starting my Monday off right with a 0sp breakfast. If you watched my stories last night, you know that I've been struggling this week. I haven't gone off the rails, I'm just not feeling super motivated and, consequently, not making the best choices. BUT, we cannot rely on motivation. We need to be dedicated, even when we're not motivated. So I'm pushing through and doing my best to stay on track. #weightwatchers #ww #weightwatcherscanada #wwcanada #freestyle #wwfreestyle #smartpoints #wwsmartpoints #wwfamily #wwcommunity #wwmoms #wwsisterhood #wwinstafam #weightloss #weightlossjourney #breakfast #becauseitworks The weekend away was so fun and much needed! I ate and drank all the things I wanted and even tracked it! Hello, major negative weeklies. #balancedlife . Now it’s time to get back to it. First up is my weekly meal plan. I have to say this is one of my favorite things I’ve been doing to keep me on track! I’ll be cooking up a couple of family favorites and also trying a recipe inspired by our weekend fun (Thursday)! . Now I’m off to meet up with my BFF for a 10k walk around Lake Union. Perfect way to start off the week! 👯‍♀️ . Track, move and have fun my friends! ❤️ #motivationmonday . . Artichokes are high in fiber, full of vitamin C and increases bile production in the liver. That means better ability to eliminate bad cholesterol from the body! 🌟 I was shocked to find out artichoke hearts can be found in the frozen food section of the grocery store! I thought they only came fresh #toomuchwork or in a jar #salad 🌟 This might be my new favorite thing right now - unstuffed artichokes. I didn't even thaw these. Just ran under some water and then tossed with olive oil, flax meal, nutritional yeast and spices. Baked in oven till brown and crisp. I literally ate the entire batch myself - before we sat down to dinner #oops 🌟 Who else knew about this? What is your favorite way to enjoy these? The last time I went major grocery shopping, I grabbed two or three huge bags of these frozen cilantro chicken won tons! They are an absolute staple in my @WW journey. I post these frequently and I always get a lot of questions so I’ll try to answer some now! 1. I have never seen them anywhere except Trader Joe’s and costco! TJ has their own brand and the Costco one is CJ bibigo. 2. You can have 4 won tons for 1sp and here I have 22 for 7sp! 3. I am dipping them in 1T soy sauce, a squirt of sriracha and a splash of water mixed together. I don’t use enough to count as a point. 4. I cook them in the air fryer and they are SO GOOD like this. Crispy but not greasy. I cook them for 9 minutes at 370. 5. I don’t have a recipe for them and I have never attempted to make them by hand! Comment below if you have any other questions!! . . . . . . . #wwreceptionist #wwleader #wwambassador #weareww #wwfreestyle #freestyleeffect #followback #instafollow #l4l #dieting #weightwatchers #wwdiary #loseweight #lowcalorie #instafood #instagood #wwgood #wwlifetime #hungry #foodpics #foodie #leanforhalloween #healthy #wwfreestyle #wwsmartpoints #wwfamily #wwinspiration #becauseitworks #wwfood Made @theskinnyishdish chicken con broccoli for dinner tonight! I love this dish 😍 Then I packed the leftovers up for lunch this week 😊 It’s normally 8sp a serving but I’m counting mine as 9sp because I divided it up into 6 servings instead of 7. 👌 ALSOOOOO I finished getting the stuff for my giveaway today so be on the lookout for that!!! 😁💕 This chicken was so good! It’s kind of like the Emily Bites chicken except I made it a bit different. I pounded the chicken thin, cooked it on the stove top using mild olive oil, seasoned the top with everything seasoning (just a few shakes— too much makes it too salty!) and garlic seasoning, flipped it and filled the other side with @alouettecheese light garlic & herb cheese (which is amazing btw), then I rolled it up, held it together with a toothpick and seared both sides... YUM!😍 I had garlic seasoned, roasted potatoes & brussels sprouts on the side. (6) Me and bae played the “where do you want to eat” game for like 10 minutes tonight until we landed on Chili’s! This is gunna sound weird, but chilis is one of my favorite places to get a steak because they have one on their Guiltless Grill menu that comes with this awesome sauce on it. The steak also comes with avocado, but I don’t really care for avocado so I didn’t get it on it. The app counts the steak as 9sp but it might be a tad lower without the avocado tbh. I got black beans and corn as my side for a 14sp dinner!

Now on the Gov website at research Applies to new grant applications submitted after 1 October 2012 AcoRD will not be applied retrospectively to studies funded before 1 October 2012 6 6 Principles of AcoRD Based on original principles set out in HSG(97)32 Uses the same three cost categories and definitions as HSG(97)32 Focuses on why an activity takes place rather than where or by whom Focuses on the Primary Purpose of an activity 7 7 Main difference between AcoRD and ARCO DH will meet some research costs for charity- funded research taking place in the NHS, where the research grant funder is a member of the AMRC 8 8 Format of Guidance Three sections Main section that covers the background, principles and attribution process Annex A provides an Exemplar list of activities and where they should be attributed Annex B provides a set of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) 9 9 Annexes A and B The Exemplar lists and FAQs will be updated on a periodic basis in response to issues raised by users Must use most up-to-date FAQs Revised versions of Annexes A and B published in April 2013. 10 10 Exemplar Lists Split into 3 sections – Research, Support and Treatment Research Section has 2 parts –Part A costs met by all grant funders –Part B costs met by grant funders except where the funder is a member of the AMRC when DH will meet the cost. 11 11 The Categories of Costs Three types of costs : Research costs Treatment costs NHS Service Support Costs 12 12 Research Costs Research Costs are the costs of the R&D itself that end when the research ends. They relate to activities that are being undertaken to answer the research questions Research Costs are met by grant funders through the award of a research grant except for PART B costs if funder is an AMRC member –DH will meet PART B costs mainly via Research Capability funding (RCF) and Networks 13 13 Treatment CosCosts are met through the normal commissioning process (very exceptionally DH may make a contribution) 14 14 Excess Treatment Costs (ETCs) ETCs are the difference between the cost of usual care and the cost of the treatment provided as part of the study Sometimes there are treatment savings rather than excess treatment costs 15 15 NHS Service Support Costs NHS Service Support Costs are the anvolved continued to be provided NHS Service Support Costs are met from the R&D budget by the Health Departments of the United Kingdom 16 16 Attribution Process Concept of NHS patient care services and the premise that the NHS bears the cost of caring for its patients even when they are involved in a research study NHS patient care service is defined as “a service provided by, or on behalf of, the NHS where that service treats, or contributes to, the care needs of a patient.” 17 17 Two step approach – step 1 Identify the core R&D activities the are being undertaken to answer the research question and which end when the research ends. These activities do not contribute to a NHS patient care service. These are Research Costs – See Annex A for examples 18 18 Step 2 – NHS Patient Care Service Activities Activity that is part of NHS Services must be split between: –NHS Treatment Costs –NHS Support Costs 19 19 Treatment or Support Activity An activity is a NHS Treatment activity If it is integral to the provision of a treatment regime, whether this is standard or experimental An activity is a NHS Service Support activity if the patient care activity is primarily undertaken to facilitate research or is driven by the NHS duty of care to a patient, eg to ensure the safety of a patient participating in research 20 20 The attribution process Step 1 Step 2 In the context of this study is the activity a ‘service provided by, or on behalf of, the NHS where that service treats or contributes to the care needs of a patient’ The activity is a patient care cost. Is the activity integral to the provision of a treatment (or diagnostic) regime? The activity is a Research Cost because it is not directly contributing to patient care The activity is a Treatment Cost The activity is a Service Support Cost Yes No Yes No Is the funder an AMRC member? Attribute Research activities between Part A and Part B 21 21 Treatment Costs NHS Treatment Cion process it can be assumed that an experimental intervention/service being tested will continue after the end of the study 22 22 Treatment Costs cont’d As a rule of thumb most interventions that are being tested or compared as part of a study will be treatment costs even if they are experimental, unlicensed for the condition, not NICE approved, or there are no plans to continue with the intervention after the study has ended because the CCGs won’t fund But placebo or sham treatments are research costs 23 23 Examples of NHS Support Activities The processing of the patient record to identify patients who may be suitable to approach to ask if they wish to participate in a research project; Obtaining informed consent; Additional investigations, assessments and tests where the results are required by the patient’s care team to ensure patient safety and where arrangements are in place to feed the results back to the clinician 24 24 Funding Part B Research activities If funder is an AMRC member DH will meet PART B costs –Activities numbered 16 via Research Capability funding (RCF) –Activities numbered 15 and 17 via Networks –Activity number 14, Local trial and coordination, through combination of Networks and RCF Non-AMRC funders to meet all the costs of Part B activities 25 25 Pharmacy Costs Work is nearly complete to identify the attribution of specific activities within pharmacy But, attribution steps 1and 2 still apply 26 26 Common issues Attributing the costs of R&D is complex No one size fits all Need to understand the detail of the study –Why is the activity taking place? –What usually happens to a patient? –What would happen to the patient if they had the same treatment outside of a research study? Remembering that Network support applies to research taking place in the NHS or in a NHS service provider Minimise costs through efficient study design Seek appropriate advice before grant submission 27 27 Common attribution mistakes Not referring back to the definitions of the 3 types of costs Attributing treatment costs as Support or Research costs Assuming because an activity takes place in the NHS it must be a NHS cost – not true Trying to use the commercial costing template for a non-commercial study – a non-commercial attribution template is being developed Assuming that funding for NHS costs works in the same way as funding for research costs Disease mapping in Germany.

Pregnancy is the time to look after your diet very carefully! During pregnancy you will have an increased need for energy and nutrients from foods to assist the growth of new tissues and for the increase in your own blood volume, which helps to carry nutrients to the baby and carry waste products away. Protein is important for the growth of new tissue. Eat moderate portions of protein in the form of with all meals. If you are a vegetarian have more soya milk or yoghurt, soya mince, soya burgers, dried beans and lentils. Iron helps to form red blood cells. A lack of iron will lead to anaemia and cause extreme tiredness. Iron is found in red meat, pork, chicken, liver, eggs, spinach, dried beans and dried fruit. If you are a vegetarian it's important to have more of the non-meat sources. You may need to take a supplement if your iron levels are low - discuss this with your Doctor or Dietitian. Vitamin C helps to increase the absorption of iron from food, so eat foods high in vitamin C with food high in iron. Sources of vitamin C are: oranges, grapefruit, strawberries, fruit juice, guavas, tomatoes, green & red peppers, broccoli and cabbage. It is VERY important to take a folic acid supplement, especially in the first trimester, as it will help prevent any spinal defects in your baby. You should take a supplement that provides a minimum of 400 micrograms of folic acid per day (you can take up to 800 micrograms). Eat more food that's rich in folic acid, such as spinach, cabbage, broccoli, dark lettuce, avocados, nuts and wholegrain cereals. Calcium is important for the development of strong bones. You will need extra calcium in your diet as it will be taken from your own bones, for your baby's development, if there's not enough! You need the equivalent of a litre of milk daily - but try to include a variety of low fat milk, yoghurt, cheese, dark green, leafy vegetables, nuts and tinned sardines or salmon with the bones. Essential fatty acids promote healthy nerve and brain development in your baby. You need a combination of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids are found in salmon, sardines, mackerel, tuna, flax seeds and pumpkin seeds. Omega-6 fatty acids are found in sesame and sunflower seeds and oils. Fibre helps to control bowel movements - digestion slows down during pregnancy to allow the gut to absorb more nutrients! This can lead to constipation so include more fibre and water to help prevent this. ALL vegetables and fruit (EAT LOTS OF THEM!) Try to eat 3 different fruits and 2-3 different vegetables during the day Food poisoning could be dangerous to you and your baby, and it is therefore advisable to avoid risky foods such as soft mouldy cheese (brie, camembert, roquefort), raw meat and raw fish (sushi). Always rinse and cook foods well. Eat foods before the sell-by / best-before date. Nausea is common. Try to eat small, regular meals during the day. Upon waking it may be helpful to eat some dry biscuits. If you are vomiting a lot, a liquid supplement may help. Ensure that you are drinking enough fluid at all times. Avoid extremely spicy foods. Milk often helps soothe heartburn or, alternatively, discuss a suitable antacid with your Doctor. Video Photographer Berkshire, Grantly Lynch presents his professional Video portfolio.

Have you ever attempted to buy or sell a home? Would the home attract prospects if it had poorly maintained gutter system or had no gutters at all? At least now you are beginning to think how well-maintained gutter systems add aesthetic value to your home. The real estate had taken a beating during the recession. The prices to houses had gone drastically down but as time has gone by the market has started to recover there are a lot of lessons to be learned. In many cases the issue of the location has been stressed especially when you what to sale a hot piece of real estate. This may be true but there are other equally important issues that need to be addressed one of them is aesthetic value and that is where gutters come in. Homeowners tend to underestimate the value of gutters in their homes. Apart from the location of your home appearance is what matters most. Curb appeal is heightened by a properly installed gutter. They help to keep the foundation of your home intact as well as the roof of your home from leaking. If a potential buyer wishes to buy a home and is not impressed by the first look then it is likely they will move on to the next home on the list. As it is said first impressions are lasting and no matter what location you home or house is in if the impression given by your home is not that of appeal then you will lose out. A leaking, rusting and crack filled gutter does nothing to keep the buyer interested. If your house is for sale, then make sure that the gutter is properly. You can also choose to paint the installed gutter to match the color of the house and this works best with vinyl and aluminum. In case of copper gutters, the copper color can add to the beauty of the house so there is no need to paint. With your gutters looking good you will not have a hard time looking for buyers. Therefore, you must take seriously the responsibility of inspecting, cleaning, and repairing the gutters. If you have some experience in carrying out gutter cleaning activities, set aside one weekend to inspect, clean, and repair your gutters. If you have no idea of what should be done when it comes to gutter cleaning, call an expert.

Mammoth Mountain Ski Areich ski resort has the most powder right now? Here's a list of all the Zurich Region/Antelope Island State Park, Birds, Davis County, Utah, White-crowned Sparrows/Juvenile White-crowned Sparrow Close Ups Earlier this week I was able to photograph a juvenile White-crowned Sparrow up close while it fed on sagebrush seeds on Antelope Island State Park. The sparrow was so close that I had to turn off my limiter and thought about switching from DX mode to FX mode just to keep the whole bird in the frame. I decided to stick with DX mode which uses a cropped sensor and hope for the best. Because I was so close to the feeding sparrow I also had to stop down to f13 to keep the whole bird and most of the sagebrush in focus. In the two minutes I photographed this White-crowned I took 198 images of it so I still have a lot of them to sort through and edit. I like how both of the images show the streaked back and wing patterns of the juvenile White-Crowned Sparrow. My Nikon D810 gives me the option of switching from DX mode that uses the cropped sensor and FX mode which uses the whole sensor or full frame. Great work. At one-hundred shots per minute, you are really working at times in the field. Then there is the processing. Thanks for sharing these details and keep up the good work Mia. Love it.

Every December at Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola, Ilene Glick Barkan, wife of Artistic Administrator and renowned record producer, Todd Barkan, celebrates her birthday with friends, relatives, and the Club’s jazz fans. This year, Ilene and friends were serenaded by the spirited music of Lucky Thompson, a renowned tenor and soprano sax performer and composer. Victor Goines became our Lucky Thompson, and he could not have done a more splendid job. I had the honor of sitting at Ilene’s head party table, next to the infamous Paquito D’Rivera, the incredible sax performer, composer, author, professor, arranger, and raconteur, who performs at Dizzy’s with his own band on New Year’s Eve. Paquito’s wife, Brenda Feliciano, was at the table, too, and numerous jazz greats, friends of Paquito, and friends of Ilene stopped by. Todd Barkan, Dizzy’s Programming Director, was ebullient and charismatic, as he greeted the sold-out crowd. Victor Goines opened on swinging soprano sax, accompanied by Eric Reed on piano, Reuben Rogers on bass, and Rodney Green on drums, all accomplished artists, well known at Jazz at Lincoln Center. The first piece of this second set, Lucky Thompson’s “Soul Lullaby”, was melodic and transporting, with danceable, vivacious rhythms. The mood at Dizzy’s was immediately joyful and jumping. Be bop jive abounded through the Club. Eric Reed has a professional ease that drew my eye, even with the piano at the far end of the stage. His riffs were hot and lively. Reuben Rogers’ bass accompaniment enhanced this piece with mellow passages, while Rodney Green’s drums were blended, yet playful. After all, this was a party. Victor swapped soprano for tenor sax throughout this set, resulting in nuanced differences in music and tone. “Reminiscent”, also a Thompson composition, was played along with “Lucky Strikes”, and we first heard a slower, meandering swing, boldly building in piano intensity. Soon Eric took off on rapid solo sequences, repeating the theme with urgent harmonies, before Victor, once again, brought the theme back home. Reuben Rogers’ solos were next, digging deep into the musicality and enriching its soulful quality. Victor soon added his own tenor solo, backing up the beat with more danceable fervor. The audience whistled and hooted in enjoyment. By the end of the set, it was time for Rodney Green’s showcased riff, and his drums were on a fast ride back in time. This Birthday Set ended in a blaze of brilliance. The Denise King Quartet took the final “After Hours” set, with Ilene’s birthday cake served and Todd Barkan in a rare serenade, “The Good Life”, recorded by Tony Bennett in 1963. The set began with Ms. King’s velvety vocals, tranquil and seamless. “Polka Dots and Moonbeams” became sultry and sensual, as Alvester Garnett used feathery light brushes, John di Martino played stylishly on piano, and Marco Panascia provided delicate bass detail to the mellifluous moment. Duke Ellington’s “Take the “A” Train” included Marco’s a sumptuous riff and Alvester’s steady tempo, while “My Favorite Things” was a perfect choice for a festive evening. Todd’s solo song was hopefully the start of something big, as they say. His artistry is seasoned and suave. Happy Birthday, Ilene, who left the club with bouquets and kisses. On the way out the door of the Time-Warner Center, I bumped into dancers from New York City Ballet, whom I also review; what a night!

Google Photos may seem to us like a simple image hosting service, but it’s actually quite powerful. Google Photos fills the gap between cloud storage, image hosting, and image sharing services, giving potent competition to Flickr, iCloud, Dropbox, and OneDrive. You might know that Google Photos can back up photos from your Android or iOS device, and that you can access it from the web to view your library. You may even know that Google Photos provides free unlimited storage when you opt for their “high quality” setting (which means photos up to an adequate 16-megapixel limit and HD videos up to 1080p). Any higher than that, and it’ll count toward your Google Drive storage. Though most of the features and services bundled with this application have been discussed for a while, here are some beyond-the-basics tricks you may not know about: Google Photos will automatically sort your uploaded pictures by location and by date created. Using advanced image recognition and Google’s huge database of information, it can recognise the subject of your photos quite easily. Search your photos for anything: may it be a party you attended, pictures of your last vacation, pictures of your adorable pets, food you like, and much more. At the bottom right, tap/click the search icon and in the box type what you want to search for–like food, bikes, or your pet selfies and tap/click “Enter” or “Search.” The Google Photos app uses some complex image processing techniques to bundle photos together. The auto-bundled photos are shown in the main search interface. The categories you’ll see here depends upon your types of pictures. These groups could be the places you visit, people you know, or objects such as food, cars, bikes, and more. At the top, you’ll see some Faces that Photos app has recognized in your uploaded pics. Google Photos creates models of the faces in your photos in order to group similar faces together. In This way, you can search your photo library for photos of certain people (like “Mom” or “Ganesh”). Face groups and labels are private to your account, and won’t appear to anyone you share the photos with. To create a label for a face group, tap “Who is this?” located at the top of a face group. Enter a name or nickname . After you label a face group, you can search with that label using the search box. Google Photos’ auto-backup is user-friendly, but by default, it only backs up photos taken with the default Camera app. If you want to also back up photos you took in Instagram, WhatsApp, Viber,etc. You just need to know where those apps store the photos clicked using them. Open the Google Photos app on your Android phone, and tap on the hamburger menu icon in the top left corner. Select “Device Folders” from the menu that appears. You’ll see different folders having images from various apps like Facebook, Instagram, messaging apps, and Screenshots. Chose which folders to include or exclude from the backup system. If you don’t want to mess up your Google Photos storage with screenshots, for example, you can leave that folder un-selected. And if you want all those filtered Instagram images, tap the cloud icon and it’ll scan that folder in the future. You probably know you can pinch to zoom in and out of a picture, but there’s more added to it with Google Photos. By default, the app shows your images in a regular view with thumbnails arranged chronologically, but there are a number of other options such as monthly view and “comfortable” view, which makes the photos full-screen. You can move between the views simply by pinching in or out on your device’s screen. You can even pinch in on an image in a view to open it in as an individual image, and pinch out on a full-screen image to go back to the library. Swiping up or down on the full screen image will have the same effect. Let’s assume you got a little happy with the above gestures and features and accidentally deleted the wrong photos. Or perhaps you just changed your mind after deleting it. Google Photos will hold on to those images for at least 60 days in the trash. All you have to do is go to the trash folder, touch and hold the photo you want to restore, and tap the restore arrow in the top right-hand corner. You can also delete those images permanently from the trash: just mark those images you want to delete and select the delete icon again. Note: If you delete a photo or video and it comes back (without restoring it), try using your device’s Gallery app to delete it. The photo or video you tried to delete might be on a removable memory card in your device.
Nearly Forty Years ago in 1977 Worshipful Brother Cyril Acton was appointed first Master of The Round Table Lodge of South Cheshire 8787, now renamed Sanbec Lodge after the ancient town of Sandbach. On 10 October 2016, Very Worshipful Brother Cyril Acton, PDepProvGM, PGSwdB will again take the chair to mark the 40th Anniversary of the Lodge. In those 40 years we have seen many changes; HMS Invincible was launched and scrapped, Freddie Laker was the first to introduce cheap cross Atlantic flights we now take as the norm and we were all jubilant we had just joined the Common Market now we are about to leave. Many events in history have changed but one stalwart remains to reoccupy the Master’s chair of Sanbec Lodge for the second time. VWBro Cyril Acton will head the celebrations of the Lodge’s 40th Anniversary and reflect on the many changes this Lodge and others have seen in the Province of Cheshire over the past forty years. Anyone wishing to attend this very special meeting of Sanbec Lodge may apply for a ticket, please write to Lodge Secretary, Chris Tapper ,using email Nestled between Kensington, Shepherds Bush and Hammersmith, Brook Green is a tranquil area that has the charm of being slightly removed from the bustle of central London, whilst maintaining good transport links.

Technically, this beverage only has two ingredients, but I’m counting a strip of necessary lemon zest to bump it up to three. Honestly, pear brandy is so flavorful—it tastes strongly of pears, obviously—that just a little bit of Cocchi Americano is all that’s needed to transform it into a sophisticated cocktail. Make it as a pre-turkey aperitif, or whip up a few to help you unwind after the meal is served. To make it, you will need: Pour the two spirits into a stirring glass and fill it with ice. Stir until very well chilled, strain into a coupe glass, and express the oils from the zest over the glass. Plop the zest in the glass, and enjoy.
The first movie screening since long time was a great evening. Although it was hot inside and outside of the Klinker the cinema was packed with people. We kicked off this new regular screening (every second Wednesday after soupcafé) with DISOBEDIENCE – a movie about climate change and brave people that resist big industry polluters all over the world. The movie showed activists from Turkey, Germany, Canada, the United States and many more places. All in all, it became clear that people are resisting everywhere and that even small actions can disrupt and stop the systemic exploitation of the earth’s resources. We are not defending nature, we are nature defending itself. And a lot of people put their body on the lines, until here and no further. Afterwards we discussed about the possibilities of local actions. Are there big polluters here, is there an industry that we can fight in the name of a better future? Pretty fast the discussion moved towards the Berendonck, a near recreational area that is facing destruction. A lot of trees, meadows and lakes have to make place for a mega-sauna and 800 parking lots. There is a clear need for resistance here and the people that are active ask for support. Although a lot of people are dedicated they need more support, skills, connections and skills. If you want to help just visit them on their page Vrienden van den Berendonck (and Facebook) or go to the regular meetings every Wednesday. For anybody who is interested in environmental activism we can also strongly recommend the GroenFront! collective. Check out their website or attend one of their monthly meetings (every first sunday of the month. Our next screening will be next week after soupcafé at 20:00 in the Klinker. We will show THE YES MEN FIX THE WORLD (click here) – a great example of creative activism that really leaves the powerful speechless. After the movie the bar will still be open for a bit. Futhermore we have a lof of nice infotalks and music coming up in September, keep your eyes peeled for more information here on the site.
Lately, I’ve been feeling a little overwhelmed. The problem is, I’m not quite sure why, since I’m unemployed. I mean, it all just feels like too much to handle right now. And the only boss I have to report to is Conor. I don’t know how other people do it. (Listen, I feel the need to say, I really do realize that I’m lucky to be able to stay home. It’s a luxury many parents don’t have. But that’s for a future post.) Oh sure, I have the passle of annoying chores that everyone else has to do, the same boring to-do list that every mom deals with. (If I have to sweep the kitchen floor one more time I’m going to scream.) Someone smashed my car’s passenger door window and I have to deal with the insurance company and the repair company to get that fixed. Today, please, if possible. We’ve got a ceiling coming down in the back hallway and we honestly have no idea why. (Well, I have my theory and my husband has his theory and since they don’t match, the collective “we” has no idea why. I’m right, though.) This means that we now have 4 ceilings with various levels of damage (mostly water) and the plaster is bubbling up on one wall (again, with the water). We fixed the leaks but not the damage. The six foot wooden fence around our yard is broken in four different areas thanks to our latest wind storm. (Linus still can’t get out of the yard, I’m thanking the universe now for sparing us that!) I’m shedding a lot of hair. I don’t have the time for the blood work (did make time for the doctor visit, though) but I am not going to go to my college reunion bald, thank you very much. So I’ve got to fit that in. The dog has an ear infection, which includes, get this, MRSA. Yes, the antibiotic resistant bug that means he’ll need multiple ear drops and multiple vet visits for multiple months… yeah, that’s gonna be cheap. We need to upgrade the Internet because my connection keeps dropping, which is annoying to me (what with all the recent blogging) and tantrum-provoking for Conor. But I spent an hour talking to someone about the thingy (a modem I think it’s called) and got nowhere. I could go on with the chore list forever (and my husband often says I do). I think what overwhelms me is the extra layer of chores that having a child with autism often adds on. Those Nazis at Quest Laboratories won’t release blood results to me (the patient’s mother). And for some unknown reason, the psychiatrist can’t seem to, oh, I don’t know, get around to contacting the lab for the results of the blood work he ordered… three weeks ago. Insurance keeps paying or not paying various doctors bills and lab invoices. So we’re constantly getting bills, paying bills, getting refunds for overpaying bills, and then more invoices. Trying to keep the insurance straight is like trying to train a goldfish. Impossible. (But, again, thankful we have health insurance. I shouldn’t complain.) Every time I pick him up from school, I cringe and try to hide from Conor’s case manager ‘cause if he’s coming out to talk with me? It’s not for my sparkling wit, let me tell you. Hmm, I wonder who Conor bit today? Oh, it’s pinching? That’s better. Keeping track of Conor’s medications and supplements is like living with an 85 year old man with high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, and erectile dysfunction. We used to have a spreadsheet to track them all but now I just have one of those days-of-the-week pill cases. You know, Conor is twelve years old now. But in many ways, it’s like still having a toddler. I can’t leave him unsupervised for very long when he’s home. You never know what he might be getting in to. He could have wet his pants. Or climbed on top of the dining room table. He might be happily playing Pop A Shot on the third floor, or working up to a wicked tantrum because he can’t get on the Internet. He might be bouncing a ball in the front hall and knock a picture off of the wall. And then step on the glass in his bare feet because he doesn’t know that stepping on broken glass will hurt. Spring is coming. He can open the back door and let himself out in the yard. He might decide to go swimming in our pool and he’s big enough and smart enough to work the lock on the door and the gate. Of course, he can swim like a fish, but still… So when it’s my turn to be Conor’s one-on-one at home (my husband and I take turns), there’s not much else I can accomplish. This is an easy slab right by the path on the Banten Boulder, so called because of it's rather turdy landing. A nice warm up for the harder problems about.

I’ve been experimenting with alternatives to white rice, and alternatives to the traditional Sri Lankan way of eating rice, which is a big plate of rice with a little curry on top. That’s reasonably frugal, but also pretty high in starch and low in fiber (things I pay attention to as I get older and my metabolism slows down). The problem is that it just doesn’t work to simply reduce the amount of rice and add in quinoa, because you can’t eat it the same way, rolling up the rice and curry into satisfying little balls with your hand and popping them in your mouth. The texture is wrong, the rice and curry won’t hold together in those proportions, etc. So I figured maybe there was something to this quinoa bowl thing that’s so popular right now, and maybe if I tried to compose a Sri Lankan bowl, that might work better. The red rice + quinoa (cooked in a mix of chicken broth and water) on its own was a little dry, esp. after the first day, so I knew I wanted to add plenty of unctuous rich flavor. Fried egg was an obvious contender (egg hoppers are classic Sri Lankan food, and so delicious), and mackerel curry is nicely traditional (and deliciously spicy). Avocado lent another creamy element, and a cool balance to the heat, and a crisp kale-coconut-onion-tomato sambol was the perfect vegetal accompaniment. I wasn’t even hungry, but dear reader, I DEVOURED this bowl, and was tempted to fry another egg and go back for seconds. Experiment: wildly successful. (Bonus, this would be easy to pack up and take to work to eat with a fork in the office.) Tomorrow, maybe I’ll try it with beef curry, for poor Kevin, who doesn’t appreciate fish. Pretty sure that will also work great, keeping all the other elements the same. (A little seeni sambol added in wouldn’t hurt either…) Indian paintbrush (Castilleja indivisa) near Loop Trail in Washington-on-the-Brazos State Historic Site. Washington, Texas, March 21, 2009

InterBus-S is a fieldbus system that covers various application areas. Even today it is still frequently found in production plants in the automotive industry. The system was introduced at the Hannover Messe in 1987. Since then, further development of InterBus-S has been largely stopped, so this bus system is becoming less significant. This trend is being reinforced by the fact that Ethernet-based networks are increasing greatly in importance. Interbus uses a master-slave access method. The bus master links simultaneously to the higher level control or bus system. In terms of topology, the bus system is designed as a ring system; this means that the subscribers are actively linked in a closed transmission path. Due to the topology and protocol efficiency, Interbus transfers network data quickly (= bus cycle time) at a low (physical) transmission rate (512 KB / 2 MB). Interbus has good diagnostic options and the cycle time is independent of the cable length, so large extensions are possible.

2011 has been a very difficult year for me because of the extreme levels of pain I have experienced in coming off morphine, but somehow I have managed to have more victory in my life this year than in any of the past 10 years. Coming off morphine in February was a wonderful accomplishment after withdrawing from it since October 2008. It has been a hard road coming off it and I felt such a great sense of victory on the one hand. However, on the other hand it has meant an extreme rise in my pain levels. In September, after 10 months of desperately hoping I was going to be able to have one of the two types of surgery to potentially relieve my pain I was told that it was just too risky and wasn’t going to happen. Both of the surgeries had the potential to seriously set me back both physically and cognitively and my doctors weren’t prepared to take that risk. Following the final appointment when I found that out I wouldn’t Ibe having any operation I was utterly devastated, but I came to a turning point with a realisation which I wrote down. So even though I have been left with the daily physical struggle of pain, I have also been left with a deep sense of gratitude. In reaccepting that the pain was here for good I made a conscious decision that I wasn’t going to let it hold me back from living anymore. Obviously there are certain things I cannot do, but there were also too many things in my brain that had “I can’t” sign posted before them. In September I decided to challenge those statements. In late September, while on holiday in Northland, I went tramping for the first time in 15 years. Then in November I travelled independently for the first time in 10 years. These may sound like very small accomplishments to a person who has a body that functions normally but my pain and levels of weakness have been so extreme over the past 10 years that neither tramping nor travelling independently have been a remote option for me. For many years the verse Philippians 4 : 13, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” has played a large role in my life, especially in working out each day and losing 53kg between 2006 and 2009. But this year I have had to speak this scripture to myself as an affirmation to keep me going and to give me the strength to persevere and get through each day. It has become my mantra and when the pain has intensified, I have sung this to myself with a passion and feel as though I truly have gained strength in doing so and have overcome the mental block of this pain. This doesn’t mean that it makes the reality of pain any less, but rather that I now know that I can do all that I need to do in life through locking into God’s strength. There is now nothing that I will not try as I step into this new year of life. Lone Star Jam set each year in Austin is one of Texas Music's biggest festivals.

The risk for hyperglycemia in pregnancy is increasing, because the prevalence of obesity has been increasing in women of childbearing age [1,2]. Maternal hyperglycemia, including gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and pregestational diabetes, occurs in 3% to 10% of pregnancies, with GDM accounting for the majority of cases (approximately 90%) and preexisting diabetes making up the remainder [2,3]. In general, women with GDM have abnormal maternal outcomes (i.e., preeclampsia, higher rates of cesarean section, and high rates of macrosomia) and neonatal outcomes (i.e., respiratory distress syndrome, neonatal hypoglycemia, and hyperbilirubinemia) [4-6]. Furthermore, pregestational diabetes in pregnancy confers significantly greater risks, such as fetal anomalies and fetal demise, than GDM [7,8]. Consequently, tight glycemic control is critical to reduce perinatal and neonatal risks in pregnant women with diabetes. As reported in the current issue, Jang et al. [9] compared maternal and neonatal outcomes in Korean women with type 2 diabetes and nondiabetic controls. Although the rate of major congenital malformations and the risk of being small for gestational age did not differ, women with type 2 diabetes showed a slightly higher risk for primary cesarean section, preeclampsia, infections during pregnancy, high neonatal weight, being large for gestational age, and macrosomia compared to nondiabetic controls. These results are consistent with previous studies that have shown that women with diabetes are more likely to have poor perinatal and neonatal outcomes. In addition, these results are surprising because the study population did not have a high level of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (6.9% in the first trimester). Importantly, other maternal and neonatal outcomes were worse in pregnant women with type 2 diabetes than in those without diabetes, despite relatively low HbA1c levels, although there were no differences in the risk for congenital malformations between the two groups. Should we treat mild hyperglycemia in pregnant women with diabetes? In patients with type 1 diabetes, the risks for serious adverse outcomes and perinatal mortality were significantly higher when periconceptional HbA1c exceeded 6.9% [10]. Furthermore, one retrospective study has shown that perinatal mortality in pregnant women with type 2 diabetes is four- and ninefold higher than in pregnant women with type 1 diabetes and in the background population, respectively [11]. Mean HbA1c levels were 6.8% in women with type 2 diabetes and 7.0% in those with type 1 diabetes, and glycemic control was similar or better in women with type 2 diabetes compared to women with type 1 diabetes. In addition, in the case of GDM, the Cochrane review states that there are various benefits of treating patients with mild GDM [12]. Consequently, we should recognize and manage mild hyperglycemia to reduce poor pregnancy outcomes in women with diabetes. All women of childbearing age with diabetes should be counseled on the importance of tight glycemic control prior to conception as well as during pregnancy. Because diabetic retinopathy may develop or progress during pregnancy, dilated eye examinations should be performed before pregnancy or in the first trimester, and then patients with pregestational diabetes should be monitored every trimester. Potentially, teratogenic medications such as angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, and statins should be avoided in women of childbearing age. The prevalence of diabetes in pregnant women is increasing worldwide, and proper management is becoming increasingly important. Preconception counseling should be provided, and tight glycemic control should be achieved in women with diabetes. Even cases of mild hyperglycemia, despite the lack of symptoms, are associated with poor pregnancy outcomes in women with diabetes. Therefore, we should carefully treat mild hyperglycemia in pregnant women with diabetes. 6. Yang SH, Kim C, An HS, An H, Lee JS.

Each month, the South Suburban Public Art Committee selects local artists to display their work at District recreation centers and selects one artist quarterly for an exhibit at the Lone Tree Golf Club & Hotel. Art displays at these facilities are intended to support and promote South Suburban's mission to enrich the lives of all its residents and encourage a legacy of art to be enjoyed and appreciated. Collection: Rosanne’s exhibit is titled Quiet and/or Astonishing Moments in Nature. Her trip to Nebraska in August 2017 to record the once in a lifetime American total solar eclipse also rewarded her with a shot of a cowboy and his two dogs in the sunflower prairie and a quiet moment to reflect on the awesome spectacle she had just seen in the sky. Other images are from White Sands National Monument and the Colorado high country. Collection: Using a mixture of tools and techniques, Matt creates long, almost flat, works of clay out of Dover, porcelain and chestnut. Matt blends different textured clay to create multi-colored works that look like one solid piece. Recently, he has started adding paint to his art. Collection: The exhibit titled Inked Car Art displays vintage cars and trucks from many manufacturers in street scenes or individually in gouache paint and India ink. Inherent in the street scenes are small town images from Dick’s youth. South Suburban's Public Art Committee encourages all Colorado artists to submit an application to display their artwork on a temporary basis.

Yesterday, all but one of the counts in Algonquin Township Andrew Gasser’s latest filing against Bob and Anna May Miller, plus Karen Lukasik was presented. This is the case that Gasser attorney Robert Hanlon is handling without cost to Algonquin Township taxpayers. “Plaintiffs restate and re-allege the allegations of Counts I-V sounding in a breach of fiduciary duty in this count. “In furtherance of his statutory duties, GASSER seeks to account for the assets of the Road District. “The Road District has a need for discovery not only as it relates to the breach of fiduciary duty referenced in Counts I-V, but also as it relates to the misappropriation of funds and bid rigging that plaintiffs believe occurred with respect to a Street Sweeper acquisition. The street sweeper bought from the highest bidder after Bob Miller was defeated for re-election as Road Commissioner was named “Robert” by his successor Andrew Gasser. On 4/07/2017 Bob Miller orders for publication in the Northwest Herald/Shaw Media an advertisement to appear on 4/10/2017. On 4/10/2017 Richard Bakken delivers to Bob Miller a revised spec sheet that is thereafter used as the official bid package spec sheet. On 4/17/2017 Richard Bakken seeks an “Official Bid Package” and the Official Bid Package is delivered to him using his exact same document as what Richard Bakken prepared – all the way down to the font used. On 4/26/2017 Richard Bakken sent an e-mail to Bob Miller with his “official bid” signed and indicating that he will bring an original bid sheet to the meeting for opening the bids later that evening. “The Road District seeks to account and recover from Defendant Bob unlawful payments made by the Road District while Miller was the Highway Commissioner. “Payment of government money for admission to Disneyland serves absolutely no legifor purchases of cashmere sweaters serves absolutely no legitict the business of Algonquin Township serves absolutely no legitimate purpose and only serves to prevent the public from having access to records that are clearly within the realm of public inquiry. “Gasser is further responsible for accounting for all of the assets of the office of the Highway Commissioner and the Road District. Obtaining records related to the use of Road District money will allow Gasser to account for all assets of the Road District. Grant an accounting to allow the Plaintiff to account for all of the records and assets of the Road District. Order Defendants Robert Miller and Anna May Miller to turn over the emails contained on each of their email accounts used while employed by the Algonquin Township to Plaintiff and to the clerk of Algonquin Township. Order the Algonquin Township Clerk to allow Andrew Gasser access to the Records of the Road District in furtherance of this accounting action.

Growing up in the apartheid-plagued South Africa, Prema Arsiradam’s childhood was steeped in institutional racism. “Cruel acts of discrimination were practiced,” she said, noting that at apartheid’s core was the segregation of people according to their race, with Africans the most severely affected. While Canada does not currently have the policy of racism that South Africa did, there is plenty of room for improvement, she told a crowd of people at Prince Albert’s Gateway Mall on Friday.Recently inducted into the Prince Albert Council of Women’s Hall of Fame, Arsiradam’s word carried a special weight during Friday’s March of Solidarity against racism. “There are still systems of oppression embedded in our society and in our laws that pribove all racism against aboriginal people.” The Canadian government’s denial of treaty rights have affected the quality of life of its aboriginal people, including inferior educational funding and the denial of the right to protect their land, air and water. Eliciting applause from her audience, Arsiradam said that Bill C-51 is further evidence of the government’s systemic racism. “Aboriginal people will be severely affected,” she said. “If this law is passed, it means that anybody demonstrating — for example, against pipelines destroying First Nations land, opposing pollution of water and land through toxic waste disposal, and protesting against fracking can be charged with committing an act of terrorism.” Prince Albert MP Randy Hoback said earlier this month that peaceful protests will not fall under Bill C-51’s wing, however the anti-terrorist bill’s vague wording has created some doubts. There are still systems of oppression embedded in our society and in our laws that privilege some and disadvanf Canada” as terrorism, calling to question protests against things such as natural resource extraction. It’s not just Bill C-51 that has Canadians concerned, Prince Albert Multicultural Council executive director Shayne Lazarowich shared. While certain MPs in the federal government strive to “use fear and irrationality to shape our national debate for their own political gains,” he noted that Canadians need to stand up against federal MPs who represent us. New Brunswick MP John Williamson has faced recent criticism for using the terms “whities” and “brown people” while criticizing the temporary foreign workers program. Ontario MP Larry Miller recently said that those who refuse to remove their niquab while swearing their citizenry oath should “stay the hell where they came from.” “We need to say no to these people and their attempts to use inflammatory rhetoric to divide us,” Lazarowich said. “Racism is so pervasive — so spread out and common that it is often perceived as normal,” she said. “But, solutions to address racism must be pervasive, spread out and common, too, as racism itself.” There's always those rogue website pages which don't quite fit in any one category, but can relate to any or many categories. It's always nice to have a compendium of links to pages like that, so here it is. This is our collection of interesting pages on our site that span the range from serious investigations of loudspeaker performance to more light-hearted investigations of acoustic phenomenon of the fork/plate interface screech. There are also some important points about the expectations we have of the contractors bidding on the projects we specify. Have a look around. They're listed here with the newest addition at the top. The Makro Multi Kruzer is powered by a built-in battery. Plus, you can plug an external battery pack for AA batteries into the device. The battery compartment is mounted under the armrest and is surely completely waterproof. Here are the photos and price of the accessory. If you want to buy the external battery compartment of a Makro Multi Kruzer separately, the price will start at $39. So, if there is an opportunity to get this battery pack supplied in the package when purchasing the unit, don’t miss it – you’ll have a sort of spare Powerbank to take when out metal detecting.
Hey Devin, I was wondering what amps and cabs you and Richie are using live right now. I've seen some recent live clips and your tone is amazing!! Thanks for your time Can you confirm what the serial number was on the neck for yours? Could possibly be your guitar with a swapped fretboard and hardware, but not positive. :wavey: Worth investigating regardless I would think. Maybe it's an idea to request a lock on your stolen guitar thread and request people with information to PM you or a mod. The way the thread rolls now ain't helping you :( Probably old news man, but just stopped by the Ibby USA site and saw your angry mug on the front page, badass bro! :metal: Excellent, i may have to invest in one then, seen as the Mayones i looked into getting will cost 3 times as much :ugh:. Dont suppose i could borrow some of that sweet sweet ass endorsers discount?? :lol: Hey man! Just a quick question about your 2127, i played one a couple of weeks back in store and it just sounded like total ass, i mean the string set they had on it was just far too light. Just wanted to know what theyre like once theyve been set up properly? :lol: Sorry for bumping that thread again man, I just thought it was shitty how everyone was having a discussion in a thread about your guitar. Hang in there man, I know what its like to have a guitar you love stolen. I'm really sorry to hear about your guitar :( i've been keeping my eyes and ears open but no luck yet. Love the music man. Keep up the fantastic work. I'd love it if someday my band and our sister band Thrill of a Gunfight got to open for u guys. It'd be amazing :P
You may already know that, but next week we’ll have a big DIY weekend. Together we’ll clean, paint, drill and screw, to give DE KLINKER a new fresh look for the upcoming year. Of course, we need you help for this. So if you have some time to come and help us out, that would be great! We’ll be working from August 11 till August 14. And we start at 9.30. If you’re not able to help the entire day, that’s fine too, you can do a lot of work in just a couple of hours! Please let us know when you you’ll join us (if you didn’t already) so we can plan which tasks we’ll do when.

Seems like we have known each other for so long and our kids get along so well!! And what else? She gave some presents from Japan for the nth time! Yena and I are so spoiled by this friend of mine..

This topic guide aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the importance of electricity to the achievement of wider sustainable development goals, in addition to looking at the major challenges and opportunities in providing access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern electricity for all households and firms. It targets development agencies interested in supporting developing country governments to achieve UN sustainable development goals relating to energy access. It provides a basis to identify entry-points for improving the performance of the power sector in a partner country, and is relevant for a wider set of stakeholders, including policy-makers and practitioners, engaged in strengthening the performance of power sectors. The presented topic guide is organised around key steps to examining the power sector of a partner country. It starts by making the case for the power sector as essential to economic growth and poverty reduction, and outlines the major performance problems facing the sector in developing countries. Access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for households and firms is an essential ingredient to achieving wider sustainable development goals. The current level of energy poverty in developing countries is holding back economic and inclusive growth and poverty reduction efforts. In 2012, governments worldwide renewed their commitment at the UN Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20) to a set of goals related to ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all by 2030 (Sustainable Development Goal – SDG 7). The world is currently falling short of meeting this ambitious target. Across all dimensions of sustainable energy for all – energy access, efficiency, renewables – the rate of progress during 2010-12 falls substantially short of the rate that would be needed to meet the targets by 2030. However, the picture is not uniform, and some countries are making particularly impressive progress. Achieving the SDG target requires significant technical, financial, institutional and political constraints facing the power sector in developing countries to be overcome. The problems are country specific, and the solutions need to be designed based on the local context. However, development agencies have an important role in supporting partner countries to improve the performance of the power sector, particularly with regards to technical assistance, institutional reform, human capacity building and learning from relevant experiences internationally. We created the topic guide to examine the power sector of a partner country. We examine why the power sector is essential to economic growth and poverty reduction, and which major performance problems the sector faces in developing countries. We then provide an overview of the power sector, unpacking the different segments and stakeholders in the power value chain, which is necessary for technical understanding of how electricity is generated, transmitted and distributed, as well as presenting some of the technical challenges facing the sector. We conclude by presenting some of the underlying financial, institutional and political barriers, which need to be addressed to improve performance in the power sector. In addition, the topic guide outlines the key opportunities for addressing and overcoming these barriers which donor agencies could consider supporting. The topic guide aims to be an easy-to-read document, explaining complicated technical, financial and political issues to non-specialists. It avoids or explains technical jargon as much as possible, uses case studies to highlight critical issues, and provides links to additional resources and information. The topic guide intends to present a neutral and unbiased picture of the power sector, although focusing on issues of particular relevance to the UK’s aid policy. It provides a framework for analysing the problems facing a particular power sector, without being prescriptive of the solutions required The topic guide is intended to help development agencies, particularly DFID, to understand and diagnose the most critical performance problems facing the power sector in a particular developing country, and design programmes to support structural reform. I&apos;ve been taught a lot about love this season, mostly by people such as Chris Berman, Steve Mariucci, and Jon Gruden. According to them, Brett Favre plays football for the love of the sport. He loves the game so much, he&apos;s willing to go out there and risk severe injury, just so that we can enjoy watching him perform. Brett Favre himself tells us how much he loves the game. His official personal website is titled For Love of the Game. And in his press conferences, he routinely and openly ponders how much left he has to give. Vikings fans aren&apos;t quite sure what he&apos;s been giving them, and I&apos;m sure many of his teammates are now wondering what he has left them with. We&apos;re told Brett Favre loves football, but what does that mean? What kind of love is that exactly? Love as in I love my kids? My dog? Pizza? Guacamole? English is a strange language when it comes to the word love. We use the term for so many things, from our desire for some McDonald&apos;s french fries right now to our favorite TV show to our undying selfless sacrifice, joy, and pride in our children. The ancient Greeks had at least four different words which would all fall under our modern umbrella of love. Agápe referred to deep virtuous love or unconditional sacrifice. Éros referred to passionate love, as in "being in love" longingly but was not necessarily sexual. Philos referred to a general love such as for family and close friends. Storge meant natural affection, such as that felt by parents for children. Author C.S. Lewis wrote an entire book titled The Four Loves that explored the nature of love. Maybe the Greeks could use one more. It would be called Phávros, as in the love Brett Favre has for the sport of football. But what exactly is the nature of this kind of love? Is it selfless sacrifice like agápe, or is it something else? I have to confess I love donuts. It&apos;s my Kryptonite. Put a donut in front of me, and I&apos;ll eat it. Put a dozen in front of me, and I won&apos;t stop eating until I pass out in a diabetic coma. At the end of the day, neither I nor the donuts are better off. This really isn&apos;t love of any kind. It&apos;s more like a craving, and I think this is really how Favre loves football and the attention it brings him. Is Favre really giving anything? Is there truly anything selfless in what he does? Retiring and un-retiring, first on the Packers, then on the Jets, so he can change teams, is that selfless? Does that put the team first? Even his record-smashing consecutive start streak, while at first may seem a selfless devotion to his team, probably isn&apos;t. He almost certainly played in games in which he held his team back more than helped due to injury, but played on anyway. Given what we know now about Favre, I think part of his insistence on playing had to do with keeping the streak going, but I also think he wanted to make sure the spotlight never shone anywhere else but on him. The thing he may have feared most is that Mark Brunell, Matt Hasselbeck, or Aaron Rodgers might get significant playing time and possibly play as well as he did, diminishing his legend. I can&apos;t help thinking of Favre&apos;s infamous quote about it not being his job to help mentor Rodgers when he was a rookie and his heir-apparent. This isn&apos;t intended to be an attack on Favre so much as it&apos;s a critique of the fawning worship by so many members of the media. Favre is human and has his foibles and has made his mistakes, just like the rest of us. I&apos;m sure he&apos;s done some wonderful things for his friends and family, and certainly he&apos;s given money to charities including breast cancer causes. What I object to is our culture&apos;s deification of a man who is so clearly self-obsessed and who rarely passes up an opportunity to put himself first. He undermines his coaches and teammates, viewing his teams as vehicles for his own glory and little more. We&apos;ve got things backwards. Whether we&apos;re talking about football or donuts, it ain&apos;t love. Plain and simple: the 2018 midterm elections were historic. More than 400 women ran for political office and 22 LGBTQ candidates ran for House seats, specifically. This surge of women, minorities, and first-time candidates vying for leadership roles at the state and federal level reflects the country's diverse population. Here's a look at some of the historic firsts—plus, the remarkable wins we're excited about. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez became the youngest woman elected to the 14th Congressional District of New York at the age of 29. The first-time candidate and Bronx native, who is of Puerto Rican descent, is ushering in a new progressive wave that's fighting to uphold a "working class agenda." The 44-year-old former Boston councilwoman is the first Black woman elected to represent Massachusetts in Congress. Ocasio-Cortez, who is a supporter of Pressley, referred to her as her "sister in service" during the primaries. The 36-year-old is one of two Muslim women elected to Congress, joining number seven on this list, Rashida Tlaib. Omar was previously the country's first Somali-American legislator, but after Tuesday's midterms, she becomes the first woman of color elected in Minnesota. The 31-year-old openly bisexual woman champions the LGBTQ community, and has been elected to Congress in California. Better yet, she unseated anti-gay rights Republican incumbent, Steve Knight. Props to Kansas Democrat Sharice Davids for turning a historically red state blue in Tuesday's election. The 38-year-old former mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter is one of the first Native American congresswomen, with the other being Debra Haaland (see: #15). In addition to being a member of the Ho-Chunk Nation, Davids is also Kansas's first lesbian member of Congress. The 43-year-old Democrat and former U.S. Representative is the first openly gay governor in the history of the United States. He will serve as Colorado's next leader. In Michigan, 42-year-old Rashida Tlaib became the first-ever Muslim woman elected to the U.S. Congress. She is joined in the House by Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, who is also a Muslim woman of color. Not only is Kyrsten Sinema Arizona's first woman elected to the U.S. Senate, but the 42-year-old is also the first openly bisexual Senate nominee. However, the vote is still out on whether she will officially clinch that title in the Senate, considering the Arizona race is still too close to call. With Oprah on her side, 44-year-old Abrams is continuing to fight for every vote to be counted in her home state of Georgia. If the odds are in her favor, the former House Minority Leader is poised to become the country's first Black female governor. New Hampshire's first openly gay member of Congress is 38-year-old Democrat Chris Pappas. He beat out Republican Eddie Edwards in the 1st Congressional District. Though he conceded to Republican opponent Ron DeSantis for Florida's race for governor on Tuesday, 39-year-old Andrew Gillum is celebrated as the first Black gubernatorial nominee in the state. At the age of 31, Lauren Underwood became one of the youngest Black women running for Congress. The former public health nurse was endorsed by political heavyweights such as former Vice President Joe Biden and President Barack Obama. After Tuesday's win, she is the first Black woman to win Illinois’s 14th District. 59-year-old Michelle Lujan Grisham is the first Democratic Latina governor for the state of New Mexico. The 12th-generation New Mexican formerly served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 2013 to 2018. Deb Haaland, the 57-year-old New Mexico Democrat and member of the Pueblo of Laguna tribe, earns the same distinction as Sharice Davids in becoming one of the first Native American congresswomen. At 29, Abby Finkenauer is one of the youngest people to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives now that she's become the first woman elected to represent Iowa's 1st Congressional District. Jahana Hayes is the first Black woman to represent Connecticut in Congress. The 45-year-old former teacher joins fellow Democrat Ayanna Pressley (#2 on our list) as the first woman of color from New England to serve in the House. As part of the populist "Rainbow Wave," Angie Craig is the first openly lesbian mother elected to Congress from Minnesota's 2nd District. The 46-year-old managed to unseat Republican incumbent Jason Lewis, who has been called out for previously making homophobic and racist comments. Though 62-year-old Christine Hallquist failed to win the governor's race in Vermont, the cancer survivor is applauded for becoming the first transgender candidate to run for governor. All was not lost in the effort to protect transgender rights on Tuesday, as Massachusetts voted to pass an anti-discrimination law. At 34, Raumesh Akbari is the youngest woman of color—and youngest member, period—to be elected to Tennessee's State Senate, representing the 29th District. Lucy McBath’s victory as Georgia's Representative for the 6th District is a well-fought one. The 58-year-old gun control advocate turned the tragedy of her 17-year-old son's brutal murder into triumph on Tuesday. Teri Johnston pulled off two major victories. The 67-year-old is the first openly lesbian woman in Florida to be elected mayor of Key West, becoming the city's first female mayor since the early '90s. Sylvia Garcia is the first-ever Latina elected to represent Texas in the U.S. House. The 68-year-old is joined in Texas by another female Latina Democratic winner, Veronica Escobar. The 49-year-old former El Paso County Judge also defeated her Republican opponent, Rick Seeberger, to become the first Texas Latina elected to Congress. As per the subject, it seems Opsview keeps sending alert emails even after the service/host check has been acknowledged. We are currently using Opsview Community version 3.13.2 with two slave clusters (2 nodes/cluster) in our data centers. Since its inception back in 1991 (25th August, more on this later), Linux has grown faster than anyone could have imagined, capturing the excitement of some of the world's most creative programmers along the way. As a tribute, here's a collection of Linux games, features and general miscellany as we look forward to another 25 years. Play Save Tux - a highly sophisticated and immersive platformer, critics may have called it a "tour de force" Linux Birthdays - why Linux may have more birthdays than the Queen of England (she has two in case you were wondering) Uh Oh! It looks like Tux may have been partying too hard on the eve of Linux's 25th birthday and he keeps finding himself in spots of trouble. Play the game below to monitor and navigate Tux's safe passage home, avoiding the pesky alert bombs that are blocking his way. Tux assumes a role in the Linux community similar to a certain Super Mario for Nintendo. As a result, Tux is the feature of many open-source games and clones (much better than ours!). These include Tux Racer, Tux Paint, SuperTuxKart and many more. Our favorite however is Super Tux, a Super Mario clone that you can download from GitHub. Take a look for yourself. Over the course of the last 25 years, Linux has become one of the largest shared technologies on Earth. This year marks the 25th birthday of Linux, but exactly when we should celebrate is a matter of opinion. The majority would consider August 25th to be the official birthday, as it was on this date in 1991 that Linus Torvalds first announced to the MINIX community that he was working on a new operating system. However, a month earlier on July 3rd, Linus posted his initial query to a newsgroup for some information he needed to help him with the project. This was the first public semi-mention of Linux, marking another date which we could argue as being particularly notable in celebrating. The first public release of the product didn’t happen until October 5th, as this was when the product first became available in the community for use and testing. This release threw a third potential birthday into the mix. Whether you count the initial query, first public announcement, or its readiness for use, it is at some point this year that we should celebrate the 25 years of development since Linux first began and the huge impact it has had.

We are closing for the summer in two week with most of our activities. So the last weekend we are open normally will be July 2/3 and July 9/10. We open again for the weekend of 20/21 onwards. However, Mulawan is happening on 15th of July still. It’s a nice opportunity to enjoy some delicous food in the cozy Klinker in solidarity with migrants in need. And! In the last week of the summer break we want to do a big DIY week and really make the Klinker look nice again for the next season. We would love it if you would come and help out! Please let us know when of these days you would want to join us, so we can figure out which projects to take on. Moreover! On one of the days in the DIY week we’ll have a discussion afternoon about how we’ll manage the Klinker in the next season: What do we want or organize? How do we manage the schedule? Who wants to do which tasks? Will we have a Klinker day out? $ 6.000 and we'll always be grateful to those who have partecipated or are still partecipating in our project. This is why our next meeting will be of vital importance, as we should eventually be able to understand which parts have been ordered and the final budget plan. In the meanwhile I will keep inviting you to donate as much as you can and also to join us physically or energetically bringing your experience, your ideas or eventually your vibrations into our group. The second part of the meeting was dedicated to the Sisterhood of the Rose meditation and activation which will take place on the 21st of June 2014. Moreover our women of the Renaissance Group together with the Healing Group are at work to create a wonderful and powerful event for the summer solstice. We had already the chance to experience a brand new meditation dedicated to the Goddes energy and the Pleiadians Women during our last meeting. At the end of the meeting we experienced this new meditation in addition to the usual and powerful Weekly Liberation Meditation and you can watch the video here: We will have our next meeting in Shimonoseki. Anyone is more than welcome and can contact us here: [email protected] I'd like also to invite you to give your availability for both the PFC meet-up and the Sisterhood of the Rose meet-up.

"Must we always teach our children with books? Let them look at the mountains and the stars up above. Let them look at the beauty of the waters and the trees and flowers on earth. They will then begin to think, and to think is the beginning of a real education." This homegrown fundraiser/event is the very best example of our student driven successes and the true Pioneer community commitment. Each student is charged with raising essential funds by garnering sponsors for a multi-loop trail run. Students train for the event in PE class and even the most reluctant of runners can be seen finishing the event with a smile on his/her face. Sponsor goals are tallied daily in the weeks leading up to the event -personally, as a class and as a whole community. In addition to gaining interpersonal skills by asking family, friends and neighbors for sponsorships, students are also able to use their own creativity and entrepreneurship skills by posting videos, hosting lemonade stands, selling baked goods, crafts etc. Students are able to articulate why their school needs funding as well as what they love about PSCS. This year PSCS will raise over $62,000! The Homespun Market. It is a great opportunity to shop as local as it gets! With vintage and handmade items- perfect for Thanksgiving host gifts and upcoming holidays! Our trimester celebrations are an opportunity to recognize how each grade level curriculum connects with the others under larger, unifying themes. On November 15th, each grade will demonstrate a concept related to our trimester theme of EcoRangers. ​ Click here to watch our PSCS Sandwich Swap video compliments of our incredible 2017 6th grade students and insightful and thoughtful staff!
