The best colors for a birdhouse is determined by the home type and where it’s going to be situated. No matter your finances, with a little bit of imagination and a number of hours of your time, you can produce a beautiful diy wedding favor which you can be proud to present at your wedding. There are a few things, though they’re natural, that I’ve found just don’t appear to work.
A warmer shade of red lipstick is perfect for women having a more olive complexion. As an example, loud and bright red lips have to be complemented with light or minimal makeup on the remainder of the face and eyes. Not merely it’s going to be overpriced, but likewise the incorrect color, style and size.
If you’ve got long hair, you are aware of how important that is! Lipstick color generally is dependent on your personal taste.
Our choice of promotional lip balm is fantastic for any event or occasion. Customized lip balm from Quality Logo Products is a perfect way to make certain your institution’s name is on everybody’s lips! If you anticipate selling your lip product, think about the quantity of color and texture to mention appropriately.
By way of example, adding one part beeswax will cause a firmer balm than 1 part cera bellina wax. From that point, making a DIY lip balm base is truly simple. If you are in need of a thinner balm use 5g of beeswax rather than 7g.

'Without question, Mt. Panorama. racing circuit is the finest in Australia for road raicing," Mr. Wal Capper, secretary of the Auto Cycle Union, said in Bathurst yesterday.
The meeting at Bathurst on Easter Saturday is the Union's classic event,. We have never considered changing its venue.
A record entry of approximately 360 riders has been received for the meeting on Easter Saturday, April 12. Of these, a record contingent of 90 riders will come from Victoria. Representatives from every State, Including Western Australia and North Queensland, have nominated. One well known clubman rider from New Zealand will also take part.
Eleven races, including the NSW T.T., in senior, Junior, lightweight. and ultra light-weight divisions, are on the extensive programme.
The NSW Senior T.T. is, this year, open to machines of up to 1,000 cc. The sidecar scratch race, one of the features of the meeting, contains a large field of 27. Among the riders will be Victorian champion George Skinner (H.R.D). Bernie Mack (Vlc.) and Lloyd Hirst (H.R.D.) An unusual combination will be that of Harry Hlnton, who needs no introduction and his 17 year old son, Harry Junior. Jack Forrest, a rider who has shown remarkable skill at Bathurst, has under him an H.R.D. Black Lightning' brought back to Australia, by international Tony McAlpine and reputed to go 150 mph.
The poupular ultra lightweight T.T. which was first held at Bathurst last October, contains a large field ot 48— 30 more than the field last year. Specially imported Lambrettas in road trim, are capable of 90 mph, while their main opposition will come from BSA Bantums, specially tuned, and reputedly timed at around 90 mph.
Maurice Quincey, who is considered by many to be Australia's leading rider, will make his second appearance at Easter. Quincey, who has. entered in the junior and senior T.T. will ride two 'featherbed' Nortons. Also riding will be Sid Willis and Laurie Boulter.
Mr. Capper said that entries were so large that fields had to be reduced.
pected to arrive in Bathurst on Tuesday.
The first two competitors in the T T. arrived on Friday.
The main bulk of riders will file into the city on Wednesday. Bathurst will again see a 'canvas town' spring up on the outskirts of the city.

One of the familiar faces of the Sydney motor cycle trade in the ‘fifties, passed away on 19th January. Ron worked for many of the big retailers over a long period of time, including Eric Moore and Hazell & Moore, and was also a keen competitor in scrambles, short circuit and road racing. Eric Moore was the NSW distributor for Lambretta, and it was this connection that led him to purchase one of the two works Lambretta racing scooters that were originally brought to Australia by ‘Big Sam’ Jamieson. After leaving the motorcycle trade Ron worked at Boyded Motors at Auburn. I worked on most of Ron’s bikes and in the ‘sixties we travelled throughout NSW to race meetings. In later years we played squash on a regular basis and later still he took up golf. Ron is survived by his wife Judy, children Michael and Sally and three grandchildren.
RON BLACK, During the halcyon days of the Willoughby District Motor Cycle Club in the late ‘sixties and early ‘seventies, the club had many factions for various forms of the sport, and for road riders. TREVOR QUESTED was a popular figure in the latter group, holding the role of club captain and taking part in the organization of many of the club’s events such as the Alpine Rally and the Clubman Rally. Trevor also competed at Moorebank scrambles riding an OSSA. A plumber by trade, Trevor moved to Bundaberg, Queensland in more recent times, where he passed away on 11th February.
Instead of reproducing another web site, I've create the link to the "Old Bike Australia" page that refers to the Racing Lambrettas.

Earlier this month, in an appearance on CNBC, Clay Christensen, the Harvard Business School professor, repeated a prognosis he has often made that a large percentage of American colleges and universities will go out of business in the next few decades. So far, Christensen’s prediction has not shown many signs of coming to fruition beyond a handful of small, private liberal arts colleges announcing plans recently that they will close at the end of this academic year.
Even so, for all but the most selective and wealthiest colleges in the U.S.—numbering probably fewer than 500 campuses—the years ahead promise hardships for their business models on several fronts from greater financial needs of incoming students to declining state and federal support for higher education.
But the answer to the financial troubles of colleges and universities need not be to go out of business or even merge, as Wheelock College recently announced it would with Boston University.
There’s another option and that is to form much deeper academic alliances with other institutions. Collaboration in higher education is nothing new. For much of the last century, campuses have joined together because they are located near each other or their missions are closely aligned (private colleges, Catholic colleges, etc). The most common of alliances, of course, are athletic conferences. But beyond a few cooperative agreements to purchase goods and services together or share study-abroad locations, these consortia have largely failed to produce much in terms of costs savings or truly changing the underlying financial model of universities.
Now, a new type of alliance is emerging in higher education that is centered on the need to solve common problems rather than designed around mission or geography. One early version of this new kind of partnership was used to build and deliver Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) through alliances like Coursera and edX. Now we’re seeing the development of similar alliances to rethink student success for low-income students (the University Innovation Alliance) or deliver technological improvements in teaching and learning (Unizen).
To survive and thrive in the changing environment for higher education, more institutions must move to form deep alliances and collaborative platforms around nearly every function on a campus from academic affairs to career services. Imagine if a group of colleges cooperated more on their back-office functions of admissions beyond just sharing a common application, so that they could focus more on recruiting students. Or what if they shared career services so that a group of small colleges can better compete against larger universities for the attention of companies looking to hire?
In a paper I recently authored, I called this new type of alliance the Networked University. To imagine how the Networked University might work in practice, it’s instructive to look to another industry that two decades ago faced similar challenges to those confronting higher education right now: the airlines. Although some airlines had the capital to grow or merge, most were hampered in their ability to adopt an expansion strategy. Enter the idea of airline alliances. The so-called code-share agreements have created networks of airlines, with the three biggest being Star Alliance, SkyTeam, and OneWorld. Under the alliance agreements, the airlines cooperate on departure times and routes, share airport facilities, and have reciprocal frequent-flier benefits.
Strategic alliances, of course, are not unique to the airlines. Every year, there are about 2,000 new strategic alliances in the world, according to the Boston Consulting Group, and alliances have been growing at a rate of 15 percent annually.
What is most needed for this new era is a change in mindset among higher education leaders: they need to stop thinking that the only path forward is one that they take alone. Collaboration in this new era involves colleges and universities coming together as seemingly one institution to change their future direction. Otherwise, Christensen’s predictions about the future of higher education might begin to come true.
Jeffrey J. Selingo, the author of three books on higher education, is a special advisor to the president of Arizona State University and a visiting scholar at Georgia Tech’s Center for 21st Century Universities.

Soap Ministry generously sponsored a giveaway on Mummies’ Voices earlier posts and 2 lucky mummies got to attend a Breast Milk Soap Making workshop!
Mummy Priscilla (Left) and Jerelyn (Right) with their frozen breast milk before we start!
Soap making is using natural oils to make soap. Natural soap is highly sought after as it is soap in its purest form, without unnecessary chemicals. Making full use of nature’s best gifts to clean our skin allows our skin to remain supple and healthy.
There are a few different types of soap making such as melt-and-pour and cold process. For breast milk soap making, cold process method is used as melt-and-pour method does not allow much liquid to be added to the soap. In cold process method, usually around 20-40% of the soap is made of breast milk (depending on exact recipe).
In the cold process soap making, water is also needed to be added to the natural oils. In place of water, breast milk can be used.
Breast milk has natural anti-bodies, enzymes and many other undiscovered goodies in it. By adding breast milk into soap, we can harness the natural goodness of the oils and breast milk for our skin.
Who needs breast milk soap?
Breast milk soap is great for the ENTIRE FAMILY!
Depending on the oils used, it can be made for generic use or specific uses. Popular recipes are those for eczema sufferers as common commercial soaps are too harsh for their sensitive skin.
Now, we were all super excited about the workshop and thought it will be super easy. Put oils, add breast milk, whip whip and viola!!!
Soap making is AN ART. It requires so much knowledge which we could barely squeeze into our brains in such a short time. However, Diana from Soap Ministry was so patient and animated with her explanation that we understood quickly and enjoyed the session very much!
In Singapore, you can’t make soap at home by regulations set to protect the general public. Lye, which is necessary for soap making, is considered a controlled substance in Singapore and only licensed businesses are allowed to import/stock/use them. Even the location in which they are allowed to store/use lye is controlled too.
As such, cold process soap making is only offered at Soap Ministry’s Head Office at Pioneer Point.
Different oils have different purposes for our skin. They also have varying properties. These properties need to be carefully considered during the soap making process as it will affect the final product. If you use an oil which is ‘soft’, you may end up with a gooey bar of soap instead of a solid bar of soap! It’s a fine balance and even the amount of lye & liquid required need to be carefully calculated to decimal points!
It’s not easy! Loads of calculation and thinking goes into the soap making process!
Calculating and recalculating to get a good recipe which they prefer really took up a lot of time!
Diana’s helpful staff stepped in to check the calculations to ensure that the recipes created by Priscilla and Jerelyn will work. Otherwise, their breast milk and efforts will go to waste!
So they started carefully…. Noticed Jerelyn’s baby missing? Auntie Audrey was carrying him so that mummy can work on the soap. If you are keen to join the workshop, do arrange for a caregiver so that baby stays far away from the lye.
Another though part was mixing the FROZEN breast milk and the crystal lye.
As the chemical reaction when lye touches a liquid produces heat and may overheat the breast milk, frozen breast milk is used. This ensures that the breast milk will not over heat and destroy all the goodness inside!
It was very tough having to poke and mix the lye into the frozen bits of breast milk.
And after that, the lye & breast milk mixture had to be added carefully to the oils.
Done mixing! It was TEDIOUS!
The most memorable part of cold process soap making was the whisking required! Imagine whisking non stop for 30++ minutes to get the mixture right!
Pouring carefully into the mold & keeping them safely.
From the briefing to completing the soap took us a whooping 5 hours!
It’s definitely not simple and this is why breast milk soap making services are pricey.
And the soap isn’t ready at the end of the session! It has to harden in the mold for a few days, then taken out to slice. After slicing, it has to be aired to allow the lye to cure properly so that the soap will become safe for use.
Soap Ministry is dedicated to safety and they set minimum timelines for the curing process and check carefully before they release the soaps to customers.
It typically takes 8 to 10 weeks to cure in a cool dry place. Soap Ministry has a lovely area designed for this and they are very meticulous with labeling. Don’t worry about getting your soaps mixed up!
Check out this short video on our session at Soap Ministry!
Personally, the kids are all using the breast milk soap. Myself included.
Comparing with other soap makers, I like the ones made by Soap Ministry (details in another post coming soon).
Mummy Jerelyn also likes the soap very much and said that just rubbing a little on the skin was enough to clean baby well.
I’m sure most mummies face the same issues as me… HAIR LOSS!
Mine was pretty serious so I was a little on the desperate side. And I saw these!
I bought all 3 types to rotate as I have oily hair, I have hair loss and I do want my hair to GROW back!
After 2 months of using these, my hair loss did lesson significantly and I’m having baby hair growing back already!
But, bar shampoo aren’t the same as commercial shampoo. They do leave the hair dry. You will need to use conditioner separately. I decided to use coconut oil as conditioner as I heard that it helps with hair growth too.
Breast milk soaps are GREAT! And the workshop was superbly fun! I think it’ll be a very fun mummy gathering activity!
Do contact Soap Ministry for more information on their workshops.
Melt & Pour soaps are suitable as a family activity with the kids. You can bring along their fave small toy and hide them in the soap to encourage them to use the soap!
After attending their workshops, they also allow you to head back to make more soaps on your own! Simply pay rent (it’s a small sum & includes washing up service) & pay for the ingredients used, and you can make more soaps on your own!
Hope you enjoyed reading about our adventure at Soap Ministry!

Innovation in financial services continues to move at a rapid pace. The significant increase in the number of fintech companies in recent years has highlighted a burgeoning market with significant economic potential, and a commercial need to create efficiencies and modernize the provision of financial products and services. Federal and state financial services regulators remain focused on fostering the growth of fintech companies, while simultaneously developing an appropriate regulatory framework for fintech activities that will ensure consumer protection.
We recently authored a chapter on fintech regulation in the United States as part of a global fintech guide published by Thomson Reuters. Each chapter provides an overview of the financial services and fintech sectors in that jurisdiction, including the regulatory environment for fintech in alternative finance, payments, securities, insurance, and blockchain activities; regulatory compliance issues; government initiatives; and the future of fintech.

Greenville, SC – The road to Omaha and the College World Series begins during the offseason. Extra practices can be the difference in making the field of 64. On October 10, as part of the month-long Drivetoberfest at West End Field, two Upstate universities will get a jumpstart on the competition during the First Annual West End Field Fall Classic, featuring the Clemson Tigers and Furman Paladins with two separate intrasquad scrimmages.
Tickets for this doubleheader will be just $5, giving fans the opportunity to catch a glimpse of the Tigers’ and Paladins’ 2008 teams from any of the great seats at West End Field. Gates will open at 3:00 PM, as Furman will have batting/infield practice prior to their intrasquad game at 4:00 PM. Clemson will then have batting/infield practice prior to their game at 7:00 PM. Tickets can be purchased at the Drive Box Office or by calling (864) 240-4528.
In between the two games, players from both teams will be available for photos and autographs during a session along the concourse level. This session will give fans the perfect opportunity to get up close with stars from both teams.
“The autograph session will give fans a great opportunity to interact with some of the best college baseball players, not just in the area but the country as well,” added deMaine.
Neither Furman nor Clemson are strangers to West End Field, as both teams played regular season games at the Drive’s home field during the 2007 season, and will once again call West End Field home for games in 2008. Furman will host the University of South Carolina on April 22, and less than 24 hours later Clemson and Presbyterian will call West End Field home on April 23. In addition, Furman will play Tennessee on May 13.
Despite having a team-record 11 players selected in the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft, nine of which signed professional contracts, the Tigers will once again be a contender in the ACC. Led by catcher Doug Hogan and shortstop Stan Widmann, both of whom were drafted but opted to return in 2008, along with an incoming class of recruits that ranks #21 in the country, the Tigers will look for their 23rd consecutive season with 39 or more victories and 22nd straight NCAA Regional appearance.
Considered one of the premier college coaches, Leggett became the second-youngest coach in NCAA history to reach the 1,000-win plateau and 29th head coach to accomplish the feat during the 2007 season. During his 14-year tenure with the Tigers, Leggett has produced eight Regional Championships along with five College World Series berths. More than 80 former Tigers have signed professional baseball contracts under Leggett’s guidance, including National Players-of-the-Year Kris Benson (1996) and Khalil Greene (2002).

American Creation: Jefferson's "Syllabus", "Philosophy" and "Life & Morals"
Jefferson's "Syllabus", "Philosophy" and "Life & Morals"
I just returned from a trip to Virginia to explore Monticello (Thomas Jefferson’s home), Ashlawn-Highland (James Monroe’s home), and Montpelier (James Madison’s home). While at Monticello’s gift shop I spotted a thin monograph entitled “Jefferson and Religion” by Eugene R. Sheridan with an introduction by famed religion scholar Martin E. Marty. It is published by the Thomas Jefferson Foundation as part of the Monticello Monograph Series. Sheridan was the former senior associate editor of the Jefferson Paper Project at the University of Virginia.
In short, I purchased this volume on Saturday afternoon and have already finished reading through it twice! I highly recommend everyone who is serious about understanding Jefferson’s religious faith secure a copy for themselves (it is available on Amazon.com). The value of the work is that Sheridan organizes everything around the clearest description I have ever encountered about Jefferson’s actives and purposes surrounding his creation of his famed “Syllabus” (1803), “The Philosophy of Jesus” (1804), and “The Life and Morals of Jesus” (1819/1820?). I have always struggled attempting to understand what Jefferson's purpose was with these documents and Sheridan (I think) has lifted the fog for me.
Generally, I place value upon a book if it meets two criteria. First, based upon what I know from my previous reading, does the author seem to know what he/she is talking about? Sheridan clearly meets this standard. He wonderfully laces his description of Jefferson’s faith journey with the most appropriate extracts from his personal correspondences and writings. Secondly, what did I learn from the work? By this standard, Sheridan again exceeds my expectations, specifically concerning Jefferson's "Philosophy".
I humbly admit that I was more confused and uninformed about Jefferson’s “Syllabus”, “Philosophy”, and “Life & Morals” than what I realized before reading this monograph. In fact, I did not completely understand that these are in fact three separate, distinct works. Let me describe each of them below.
Jefferson composed his “Syllabus” in 1803 after having read and been “inspired” by Dr. Joseph Priestley’s pamphlet “Socrates and Jesus Compared” (1803). Of course, Dr. Priestley was the English Unitarian minister whose two-volume “An History of the Corruptions of Christianity” (1793) had moved Jefferson into his “unitarian conversion” during the 1790s, and away from the more nature-based deism of his young adulthood. What stimulated Jefferson was Priestley’s use of the comparative method to show the value of Jesus’ system of morality in comparison to the ancient Greek philosopher, Socrates. Jefferson quickly wrote to Priestley asking him to consider expanding this “pamphlet” into a more extensive work comparing Jesus’ philosophy to not only Socrates, but to many of the other philosophers of antiquity (“the leading Epicurean and Stoic philosophers”) as well as the Jews. Jefferson thought that only then would it be possible to truly show the genius of Jesus’ teaching and his role as a great and historic moral reformer. Thus, Jefferson composed his “Syllabus” as a kind of general outline of what he thought would be important for Dr. Priestley to include in this proposed volume.
However, Jefferson had two other purposes in composing his “Syllabus”. First, his views on religion had come under public attack during the 1800 presidential election by his Federalist opponents. While he refused to publicly address these attacks as a matter of principal (for he believed that an individual’s faith should remain completely a private matter and by addressing the issue he would provide their charges additional publicity), he did want to assure his close friends and family members that he was not as unorthodox in his views as other elites in the United States, like Thomas Paine, or some of the French revolutionaries and philosophers. Therefore, when his “Syllabus” was completed Jefferson sent it to 8 individuals (his friends Dr. Benjamin Rush and Priestley, his daughters- Martha Jefferson Randolph and Mary Jefferson Eppes, and several members of his Cabinet, including his Secretary of War Henry Dearborn, his Attorney General Levi Lincoln, his Secretary of the Treasury Albert Gallatin and his Postmaster General Gideon Granger).
But secondly, Jefferson also wanted Priestley’s work (hopefully based upon his “Syllabus”) to be distributed to the general public “in order to foster the social harmony he cherished as one of the bulwarks of the American republic” (p. 34). The election of 1800 had stirred considerable partisan and religious passions across the new nation and Jefferson was concerned that the social fabric of the young country was coming undone. One of the biggest divisive elements separating the Federalist supporters from his Democratic-Republican supporters were doctrinal views about the Christian religion. His hope for Priestley's work would be that it might help ferment a new type of Christianity in the nation…a Christianity not based upon doctrines or dogmas, which were often irrational and divisive, but upon the general moral teachings of Jesus, upon which almost all American Christians could agree.
Within the pages of his “Syllabus”, Jefferson reduced the teachings of Jesus to three major points. First, Jesus believed in monotheism, as did his fellow Jews. Next, “he preached a system of morality that was far superior to those of the ancients and the Jews,” in that rather than focusing on irrational and legalistic rules, Jesus preached “The Golden Rule” which required followers to be charitable to others and treat others as you would like to be treated yourself. And finally, Jesus taught about the existence of an afterlife “in order to encourage virtuous conduct in the here and now” (p. 38).
However, Jefferson soon realized that his “Syllabus” was incomplete and if Priestley’s work was ever to truly serve the purpose of unifying the nation under a more rational and general Christianity, it needed to include “an introductory section consisting of the moral teachings expressed in the ipsima verba of the great reformer himself” (p. 43). Thus, when Jefferson set out to create/compose his “Philosophy” in 1804, his intention was that it would serve as another rough draft for Dr. Priestley to use in his upcoming volume comparing the moral philosophy of Jesus to the ancient philosophers and Jews. The important point being, Jefferson intended his “Philosophy” to be publicly distributed and widely read to foster and promote his version of a primitive and rationalistic Christianity (although through the name and hand of Dr. Priestley….Jefferson was acting as Priestley’s anonymous research assistant!). And this is a very important point; Jefferson realized he was collaborating with Dr. Priestley on this project and if his "Philosophy" was to be incorporated into Priestley's volume it would have to be satisfactory to both Jefferson, Priestley and their larger American readership! In other words, Jefferson's "Philosophy" is not necessarily a direct statement of his theology!
So while Jefferson's "Philosophy" ended up being on of the books he used in his private devotions, the project that produced that work did not start out with that as its intention!
Another important point concerning Jefferson’s “Philosophy” which is often overlooked is that he did not rely exclusively upon his own authority in composing this volume from the New Testament. Jefferson used Dr. Priestley’s “A Harmony of the Evangelists in English” (1780) and “A Harmony of the Evangelists in Greek” (1777) to help guide him in making decisions about what to include and what to exclude in composing/crafting his volume. Therefore, Jefferson apparently did not think he was undertaking this task solely upon his own individual authority (reason). He was using the writing of the famed Unitarian theologian to help guide him.
Jefferson quickly set out to compose/construct his “Philosophy” by ordering four copies of the New Testament on January 20, 1804 (two in English, and one in both Greek and Latin). He received these volumes on February 4, 1804. Apparently, once he received the volumes he decided to reduce the scope of the project (probably because he was serving as president at the time and pressed for time), but he quickly cut and pasted the two English copies into a new 46 page work he titled “The Philosophy of Jesus of Nazareth extracted from the account of his life and doctrines as given by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Being an abridgement of the New Testament for the use of the Indians unembarrassed with matters of fact or faith beyond the level of their comprehensions” (p. 44). [A very important point which Sheridan notes, is that the word “Indians” here is a code word for his Federalist and orthodox attackers. Sending his “Philosophy” to Native Americans simply does not fit with the rest of the events and evidence in the story and there is no record he ever attempted to have the “Philosophy” distributed to Native Americans.] Jefferson worked so rapidly on this project that he had the finished project to the printer and had the finished volume bounded by March 10, 1804 (p. 44).
What Sheridan apparently was unable to determine was exactly when Jefferson found out that Dr. Priestley had died on February 6, 1804. Did Jefferson complete his “Philosophy” despite Dr. Priestley’s death, or was he simply unaware that Priestley had died until his effort was almost complete? Remember, Jefferson wrote that he completed this entire project in only a few evenings at the White House. Did he entertain the thought of still including his “Philosophy” with Priestley’s work that would eventually be published posthumously? Nobody knows the answers to these questions.
Near the end of 1804, Priestley’s comparative analysis of classical and Christian morality was posthumously published under the title “The Doctrines of Heathen Philosophy, Compared with those of Revelation”. However, Jefferson was greatly disappointed by Priestley’s last work. Perhaps because Priestley was nearing his demise, his writing style and conclusions were not crisp and lucid as his earlier scholarly works had been. Because of this, and because Priestley was unable to act upon Jefferson’s suggestion to include an introduction along the lines of his “Philosophy”, Jefferson did not believe “Doctrines of Heathen Philosophy” would ever be widely read or understood by the general public nor advance primitive and rational Christianity in the United States.
For a brief period in 1816, Jefferson thought he had discovered a new unitarian theologian to adequately complete the project that he and Dr. Priestley had started in 1804, a Dutchman named F. A. Van der Kemp. Van der Kemp was a friend of John Adams, who was living in upstate New York after having immigrated to the U.S.. When Adams and Jefferson renewed their friendship following Jefferson’s retirement from the White House, Jefferson had sent Adams a copy of his “Syllabus” and a detailed description of his “Philosophy”. In 1813, Adams allowed Van der Kemp to read the “Syllabus”, although he refused to allow the Dutchman to copy it as to not violate Jefferson's trust. However, reading Jefferson's "Syllabus" sparked an interest in Van der Kemp who subsequently wrote to Jefferson in March 1816 “not only ask[ing] for a copy of the “Syllabus” to use in connection with a life of Jesus he planned to write, but also requested permission to publish the document, without attribution, in a Unitarian journal in England to promote a discussion of Jesus’ true merits.” (p. 56).
In a sign of good faith, Jefferson agreed to both requests to help formulate a friendship with this religious scholar. Van der Kemp did manage to arrange for publication of the “Syllabus” in the October 1816 issue of the “Monthly Repository of Theology and General Literature” (a low-circulation English Unitarian periodical), however the editor of the publication provided a little more information about the source of the document than what Jefferson felt comfortable having publicly known (the publisher wrote that the “Syllabus” came from a "prominent American statesmen"). But Van der Kemp did not end up pursuing a grander investigation into the historical Jesus and his moral teachings as he had promised Jefferson in exchange for permission to publish his “Syllabus”.
The motivation for Jefferson for composing/constructing his “The Life and Morals of Jesus” (sometime around 1819-1820) some fifteen years after his construction of “Philosophy” was much more personal in nature than the earlier volume. Jefferson always regretted not finishing a multi-lingual compendium of Jesus’ moral teachings (with the Greek and Latin columns) which would include not only Jesus’ moral philosophy, but also his teachings and activities. Jefferson composed his work explicitly for his own personal devotionals and based it upon his own theology about Jesus. “He never mentioned this collection of Gospels verses in his surviving correspondence, nor did he even reveal its existence to the members of his own family. Only after his death did they become aware of it.” (p. 63). This volume is probably closer in style and organization to what Jefferson originally wanted to sent to Dr. Priestley in 1804, but he also probably felt more comfortable making it closely match his own personal theology because he was fairly sure he was not composing it for wider distribution, or for Dr. Priestley eyes and approval. It is this volume that is widely known as the “Jefferson Bible”, has survived, and is stored as a complete volume at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C.
Jefferson, in part, created his "Syllabus" as an outline to assist Dr. Priestley's writing of a book Jefferson suggested he undertake.
A third purpose of Jefferson's "Syllabus" was to provide some family and friends in his inner circle a better understanding of his version of Christianity.
In similar fashion, Jefferson created his "Philosophy" as a draft to be utilized by Dr. Priestley in his upcoming book comparing the moral philosophy of Jesus with those of the ancient philosophers and Jews. It is unknown if Jefferson found out about Rev. Priestley's death prior to composing his "Philosophy" and if that had any impact concerning the composition of that work, which was finished before and professionally bounded on March 10, 1804.
If Jefferson stuck to his original plans concerning "Philosophy", then that work is a mixture of Jefferson and Priestley's views and not simply Jefferson's. Plus, it was intended to serve as an introduction for Priestley's upcoming book, so it had to be acceptable to the general American reading audience.
If Jefferson stuck to his original plans concerning "Philosophy", then his "Life and Morals" might be a better indicator of his theological views since: 1) He had more time to work on it; 2) He was not writing in conjunction with someone else; 3) He never intended "Life and Morals" to be published under his name or anyone else's, and therefore, could be more honest.
If anyone wants me to expand on any of the points above, just ask. Sheridan's monograph has pretty good annotated endnotes and I can probably tell you why he has come to the conclusions he had arrived at. Additionally, it would be great if someone reading this knows of some evidence concerning when Jefferson discovered that Dr. Priestley had died...please post a comment if you do!
I'm dyslexic and my writing ability today was suffering, so I appologize if my wording and spelling is a little off in places, but overall I think it is a good post and clears up some misconceptions that have been previously posted on American Creation (including some statements I have made).
Great post. Perhaps we should get Kristo M. and Gregg Frazer to chime in as both of them have also studied these works in detail (and disagree on how exactly to understand them).
I just ordered the book on Amazon. Thanks, Jared!
Jon- sounds good. I'd like to hear what they have to say.
They said during my visit to Montpelier that it was a full day's travel down to Monticello (30 miles). I just looked and Philly is about 140 miles from D.C. So I figure that in the best case senerio it would have taken five days for news of Dr. Priestly's death to have reached the White House (Because Dr. Priestleey's home was 30 miles north of Philly). So if Rev. Priestley died on Feb. 6th, in the best case senerio word of this news would probably not have reached the White House until Feb. 11, 1804. Jefferson had to have submitted his "Philosophy" to the printer at least a couple days prior to it being bound on March 10, 1804.
But who knows for sure? We all know the stories about how slow some news traveled during this period.
If anyone wants me to expand on any of the points above, just ask.
Excellent, Mr. Farley, and thank you. A lot of stuff I didn't know, but nothing that conflicts with my own readings of Jefferson.
That he had a vision of creating a monotheistic but otherwise noncredal Christianity that would unify America is totally in character---and, BTW, to correct the epistemological and theological errors of the ages in doing so.
Not only like when he disagreed with Jesus on metaphysics as though they were equals [material vs. spiritual], but correcting the errors of the ancient Jews and Greek philosophers as well.
Any gent who built a nice pad such as Monticello deserves some respect.
Did you note the bust of Voltaire in Jefferson's study (was there a decade or so ago)? He also had a a collection of works by french philosophes.
TJ may have wanted to re-assure Americans he wasn't a jacobin--but he was reading Voltaire, Rousseau, D'Alembert,etc. along with the Locke, Sidney, and greek/roman classics--as were the french revolutionaries.
I enjoy the Jefferson Bible as well--jus' Jeezuss, sans miracles, sans Resurrection, sans Paul of Tarsus, sans the revelator.
Yes, it is all still there. No doubt TJ read the French philosophers and they had an important influence upon him prior to the Reign of Terror. However, my reading of him is that he intellectually distanced himself from them SOMEWHAT afterwards. That had an impact, his "discovery of rational Chrisitanity via Dr. Priestley, and the public attacks on his views on religion during the 1800 election all played a part in his "unitarian conversion".
I never think he stopped reading the French philosophers, but he was a little more cautious of them thereafter. He, and others, also speaks much more often about the importance of religion and morals in holding a society together after he received word about the events in France.
The historical evidence suggests that Jefferson waffled a bit in regards to the French Rev and jacobins, though he certainly supported the deposing of the monarchy. Personally, I think he supported the jacobins, even Robespierre, however sanguine Robe. may have been. The real nastys were Marat and the sans cullottes--well, until Bonaparte arrived. Jefferson had nothing but contempt for Napoleon.
When I wrote comment #7 I was talking about what Jefferson said and wrote about French philosophers concerning theology. I really haven't looked very closely into his evolution as a political Francophile.

Agatha Christie would be turning in her grave at the announcement that there is to be a new Poirot novel (report, September 4).
While I am sure Sophie Hannah will do an excellent job, the reason that Agatha Christie killed off her detective in Curtain was to prevent any such future spin-offs after her death. During her lifetime, Agatha Christie’s daughter Rosalind fervently protected the integrity of her mother’s work. It is sad that such integrity no longer appears to be the cornerstone of Agatha Christie Ltd.

First, cover the basics: Have you made changes to your dog's nutrition recently? Does he compete with other pets for food? Has he recently eaten grass? These are all possible reasons his stomach doesn't agree with him after dinner. Find out why they may make your dog sick and when you should bring him to the veterinarian.
Sudden changes to your dog's food may result in gastrointestinal issues, so switching dog food (varieties or brands) too quickly can upset his stomach. Above all, it's important to transition to a new dog food slowly, typically over 7-10 days. Before you make the decision to change dog foods, check with your veterinarian. If you continue to see signs of stomach issues or your dog does not stop vomiting, you should bring him in as soon as you can. He may have an allergy or food intolerance, or he may have a more serious problem (foreign body in the stomach, systemic disease, etc.).
If you've recently begun the transition to a Hill's® brand food, be sure to start small and gradually build up the amount until it's the only food you're only offering.
Although most pet parents assume that a dog vomiting after eating may have a sensitivity to the food, it isn't necessarily the case. Anxiety or fear may be the driving force to why a dog throws up after eating. Does your dog compete with other dogs in the house for food? This sense of territory can make him eat faster, which may overload his stomach and decrease the amount of saliva normally swallowed with the food that acts as a buffer. And just like us, nervousness and stress can make your dog feel queasy and increase acid in his stomach.
When dogs eat too quickly, they don't take the time to chew their larger pieces of kibble. They also ingest a significant amount of air, both of which can come back up by regurgitation or by vomiting. If possible, feed your anxious dog in a secluded area, without any other animals around. Start with small meals and gradually build back up to a normal-sized dinner once you see he's calmed down at each meal.
There can be other underlying issues associated with a dog's anxiety that can affect his ability to keep his food down. Have there been changes in the house that might have disrupted his routine? Have you moved lately or changed your work schedule? Changes like this can make your dog anxious, which can affect his digestive system. If you suspect that something like this could be why your dog is throwing up after eating, continue to show him you love him. Give him praise, pet and play with him, and reassure him that everything is okay. Slowly, over time he will adapt to the changes and get back to his old self. It is still important to monitor his eating habits to make sure that there isn't a larger issue at hand–if it is happening more than once every few weeks, you should consult your veterinarian. Vomiting due to other health concerns is more common than due to anxiety.
Similar to anxiety eating, your dog may indulge too fast if he loves the taste of his food. There's nothing wrong with enjoying a meal, but you want to be sure your dog gets all the nutrition he can get without it coming back up.
One way to reduce this tendency is by feeding him smaller portions until you notice his intake naturally slows down. Another option is to serve your dog's meals spread out on a large flat plate or cookie sheet. This forces him to take longer to locate and ingest each piece, reducing the chances of him vomiting after eating. There are also special dog food puzzle toys that require him to work a little harder to get his food out. This can be good exercise for him, but also force him to eat more slowly. Just be sure to monitor that he is still eating all of his food, and doesn't get frustrated by his new meal delivery system.
While dogs may eat grass for a variety of reasons with no adverse effects, dogs that aren't feeling well for other reasons may eat grass and vomit their stomach contents, possibly removing whatever may have made them sick. Once your dog vomits the grass and food, he should feel better and shouldn't need any additional medical care if just a simple upset stomach. Just remember to keep your dog hydrated and watch him closely to ensure vomiting doesn't persist, and there is nothing else is wrong with him.
If your dog simply cannot stop vomiting after eating food and grass, bring him to the vet or emergency animal clinic as soon as possible. There could be something else wrong. He may have infectious or systemic disease, he may have a foreign body or even a twisted stomach. Whatever the case, quick attention will make him feel better.

The hunt for the perfect afternoon snack is over. Greek Gods Honey Greek Yogurt is a creamy delicacy made with fresh milk and cream, then sweetened with honey. Not only does it have a delicious flavor, it’s an excellent source of calcium. Pure indulgence in snack-size!
Love this flavour! Not too sweet..perfectly creamy. It's my favourite one!
It is the only yogurt we eat. I am so happy you carry it now. It's so good!
Creamy, lightly sweet, little tang not just for breakfast!

Despite the many political speeches about creating financial transparency, the public have still not won the right to know the names of people who control the companies operating in our societies. And despite it being common knowledge that some of these anonymous legal structures, including both companies and trusts, are being used to launder money from tax evasion, drug trafficking and corruption, EU finance ministers are still hesitating to take action. Meanwhile, the European Parliament has come out in strong support of taking the necessary step to solve the problem – to put an end to secrecy and create public registries showing who actually owns companies, trusts, and similar legal structures.

The idea of living a century was once confined to science fiction. But no longer. For Hong Kong’s wealthy, living a 100-year life is not an outcome they consider a mere possibility. It’s one they expect.
An increasingly strong belief that they will live to 100 is driving significant changes in spending, investing and legacy behavior by Hong Kong’s wealthy.
This is the key finding from the latest UBS Investor Watch, the largest recurring global study of High Net Worth Individuals (HNWIs) (with at least US$1 million in investable assets) in the world, which covers the views of over 5,000 investors across the world in 10 markets (Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Switzerland, the U.S., U.K. and UAE).

When I was a college sophomore, Tri and I decided to go up to Boston one weekend to visit his friend (I’ll call her D) and her boyfriend Y. It was one of my first interactions with his friends from Nepal. I was happy to practice my budding Nepali skills with them, and they were unbelievably kind to me.
The first event happened on Sunday. It was kind of a welcome event and mehndi party. Mehndi (or henna) is traditionally more of an Indian thing, but Nepali brides are doing it too these days.
The front turned out really orange!
Tuesday night was a reception that we couldn’t make it to, but we did go to the Wednesday engagement (swayambar) and wedding (bihaa). These last three days (Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday) are sahith, which Tri translated as “an auspicious time,” so there have been lots of wedding this week.
After D was all dressed and ready, the guests headed downstairs just as the groom, Y, was pulling up in a car. Before he got out, the men in D’s family threw flower petals around the car.
After a slew of photos were taken, the bride went back upstairs, and the groom stayed near the mandap (a covered tent under which puja is done). His father-in-law came over and they started a ceremony with just the two of them and the priest. Usually people only take tikka from those who are older than they are; I don’t normally see people giving tikka to their elders, but there must an exception with weddings because during this part of the ceremony, Y adorned his father-in-law’s forehead with red powder and rice. Y had to take his shoes off and step up onto a little stool while he and his father-in-law were performing this ceremony, and that’s when the bride’s sisters stole his shoes. (americanepali talks about that here).
Negotiations went on for hours with the groom’s brother and friends, and the sisters even stole the groom’s brother’s shoes, but a sum of 9000 rupees (a little over a hundred dollars) was eventually settled on towards the end of the day. Seriously, kudos to the sisters. The oldest was in ninth grade and quite tough against these late twenty something guys.
Tri left his office early so that he could be there for some of the wedding. However, we left the wedding pretty soon after he arrived. I had barely done anything all day but I was exhausted. I don’t know how the bride and groom must have felt!
Before we left, we did get a photo of us by the mandap. FYI: I tied my sari myself this time. It looks a little strange in the middle because it’s tucked in, but everyone was impressed with my skills. I’m still working on making the pleats looks better (they end up sagging after a while), but it’s getting there.
D and Y looked amazing and incredibly happy. Dherai badai chha!

The driver in a motorcycle crash that killed a 28-year-old woman on July 4 is now facing criminal charges, in addition to the DWI he was already charged with that morning, the Middlesex County Prosecutor's Office announced Tuesday.
Ruddy Custodio, 30, of Piscataway, was charged with second-degree vehicular homicide on Monday. He was driving while under the influence of drugs and alcohol, the prosecutor's office said.
Custodio was driving a BMW motorcycle on New Brunswick Avenue in South Plainfield around 4 a.m. when he lost control of the vehicle and hit a curb near Carlton Avenue, ejecting Jessica Montes, 28, from her seat.
Montes, a resident of Piscataway, was identified as the victim of the crash the following day by friends and family.
She was rushed to Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, but died from her injuries later that morning. Custodio was treated for minor injuries at JFK Medical Center in Edison.
Montes' friends set up a GoFundMe page for her funeral. Half of the $8,000 goal has been met as of Tuesday morning.
She was a phlebotomist at Raritan Bay Medical Center, and a mother to an 8-year-old son, Ruben.
Custodio previously faced "multiple motor vehicle summonses" after the crash, including driving while intoxicated, driving while license suspended, failure to maintain lanes, driving without a license, failure to possess an insurance card and no insurance.
He is currently being held in the Middlesex County jail, awaiting a detention hearing.
Custodio's last name had previously been spelled as "Custidio" when the accident was announced, but the prosecutor's office confirmed Custodio is the correct spelling.
The investigation is still ongoing, and police are still looking for witnesses who may have seen the early morning accident.
Anyone with information is asked to call Lt. David DeLair of the South Plainfield Police Department at 908-755-0700, or Detective Donald Heck of the Middlesex County Prosecutor's Office at 732-745-8842.

You might want to keep your journal in a safer place – with help from their colleagues at the Georgia Institute of Technology, a team of researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has developed a prototype imaging system that aims to read through closed books. In their recent study, the team tested the system using a stack of papers with one letter printed on each and found that it could correctly identify those written on the top nine sheets.
The new system takes advantage of terahertz radiation – the band of electromagnetic radiation that lies between microwaves and infrared light on the electromagnetic spectrum. Although other wave types – such as X-rays – can also penetrate surfaces, the team chose to use terahertz radiation because it can differentiate between ink and blank paper in a way that X-rays cannot. This stems from the fact that different chemicals absorb different terahertz frequencies to varying degrees, giving each chemical – such as those used in ink and paper – a unique frequency signature.
MIT algorithms designed to capture images from each paper use this absorption difference to make the characters as clear as possible. Afterwards, algorithms developed by Georgia Tech were able to interpret the often-distorted images as letters.
"There is a spectral difference in absorption of a blank paper and ink material," Barmak Heshmat, MIT researcher and co-author of the study told New Atlas. "We tune to that spectral contrast using computational methods to enhance the contrast significantly. This will render the letters visible to our next algorithm, which recognizes the characters."
The terahertz camera in the current prototype of the device emits terahertz radiation in ultrashort bursts. These bursts are reflected back to the camera's built-in sensors from the tiny air pockets that are trapped between each of the pages, which have different refractive indexes.
After hitting the sensor, the radiation is analyzed by an algorithm that determines the distance to each individual page of the book using the difference between its emission time and the time at which the reflected radiation returned to the sensor.
Page distances help the algorithm that renders the images filter out the "noise" created by radiation that bounces around the gaps before returning to the sensor. By pinpointing only terahertz signals with arrival times that are suggestive of real reflections, the device combines this data with measures of the reflections' energy and assumptions regarding the energy profiles of these reflections and noise statistics. Ultimately, this allows the device to shed light on the chemical properties of the surfaces that reflected the terahertz radiation and "read" the letters on each page.
The current device can read up to a depth of nine pages in a stack of paper – after this point, the energy of the reflected terahertz signal is too low for the sensors to be able to distinguish between different terahertz frequency signatures, making letter differentiation impossible. Future research will work on achieving deeper penetration through improving detector accuracy and radiation source power, and the technology could one day be used to look inside books that are too old to open without risking severe degradation.

"Several weeks ago I rushed in to the Davis library in Bethesda to return a book. Fortunately I looked to my right and noticed Martina’s delightful display of scarves – all with a story to tell. I was particularly drawn to the “Ceiling” design since it is inspired by the ceiling of the courtyard at the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, DC. I used to work right across the street from the museum and frequently walked over and had lunch in their courtyard. I must confess, I never looked up. The scarf resonated with me because it incorporates my story as well as Martina’s. I also have a lot of black and white items in my wardrobe, so it will blend perfectly with those as well as my more colorful items. I know I will be wearing and enjoying this wonderfully creative piece of art for my neck on many occasions. Thank you, Martina."

The apartment complex where I live have some dumpsters that rival almost any college dumpster. You can find some pretty nifty things once in while. One year I'd been needing a dresser and had been looking for a decent one for some time, but it hadn't been a priority. When this one was spotted, it was decided to take it home (along with 17 pennies that dropped out) and paint over it.
We had a sander that we used to clean off the spilled, stuck on stuff and make the top more even. Eventually we decided to sand the whole thing and just stain the wood again. But after getting 90% done, we realized the wood didn’t match real well and went back to our original idea to paint it. That was a frustrating and the most expensive part of the learning experience.
We picked up a mis-colored gallon of paint and got the clerk to give us the color we wanted, for no extra charge, and we also picked up a cheap base paint, along with cheap brushes.
We picked up some wooden knobs, since I didn't like the door hanger look it previously had. All in all, the free Dresser took 66.58 to paint and fix up, plus labor.
I may have been able to pick up one at a garage sale, but then I might have had to buy the paint and such to fix it up anyway.
I think it looks great! Great job.
So cute!! I love it. Some new paint and it has a completely different look. My family has done this with multiple chests throughout the generations. We have many that my granparents used.
This summer I was working at a university and in the building there was a pile of chairs with post-its that said "Remove" so I found one I liked and did. It was covered in ugly gold paint and worn fabric, but I stripped, stained, and reupholstered it, and we have a shiny new chair for less than $50. The best part--I couldn't find a chair that I liked at any stores for any price, and I love this one.
The best thing about this dresser is that it is older one and outlasted the newer one that was bought.
Isn't it wonderful how 2nd hand stuff is what is more cherished than the new stuff.

Below are Coaches that have been nominated for the award this year and any information available from their nominations. PLEASE NOTE:There will be a write-in option on the ballot made available at the Tournament!
From Nomination: He does a great job with his team and I've enjoyed seeing them at nationals.
Candidate Statement: It’s an incredible honor to be nominated for an award named after a man I respect so much by an organization that I admire so much for doing a job that I love so much with kids that I care so much about. We have been blessed of late to field excellent teams, winning team and individual season-long, championship tournament, and regional tournament awards. Thank you for the privilege of coaching alongside of you all and for the honor of this nomination.
From Nomination: In the Fall 2001 semester, Bennett Strange took a short break (sabbatical) from coaching Louisiana College’s debate team in order to travel to China. Mr. Strange had to make a decision as this meant he would miss over half of the debate season for that year; he had to decide whom he trusted enough to serve as coach in his absence, so he did. While we have unfortunately been without Bennett, one of the most beloved debate coaches anyone has ever known for several years now, he has left us with the knowledge of who he believes is the most worthy choice to serve in his absence as coach and mentor – Dr. Cole Franklin.
It would be easy highlight how Dr. Franklin is the coach of a program that is consistently in the top 10% in the nation year after year in spite of coming from a small higher education institution. It would be easy to brag about Dr. Franklin accomplishes this by leading by example, by competing while also prepping his students. It would be easy to share how he continually mentors motivated pupils and ensures he is available to cultivate and maintain a relationship with debaters fortunate enough to learn this tremendously great skill from one of the few on the circuit who learned from Mr. Bennett Strange himself, but instead, the fact that Bennett chose Dr. Cole Franklin as the person to lead, to mentor, to coach his own team in his absence speaks volumes.
I know my endorsement pales in comparison to the endorsement Bennett provided well over a decade ago. I only see it befitting that Dr. Cole Franklin is honored as the IPDA Bennett Strange Coach of the Year for this season! Having known Bennett personally and knowing Cole personally, I feel that Bennett would absolutely agree.
Candidate Statement: Words cannot express how humbled I am to be nominated for an award named for a man I had such respect for. Bennett Strange was my teacher, coach, mentor, colleague, and friend. I cannot imagine a greater honor than to receive an award in his name.
East Texas Baptist University fielded its first IPDA debate team in 2007. Within three years, we had won the school's first national tournament championship and two additional national tournament speaker championships three years later. Despite being one of the very smallest, if not the smallest university represented in IPDA, we have consistently ranked in the top 7-8 schools in the nation at the end of the season.
We have embraced IPDA and IPDA has embraced us. I am touched by the relationships, collegiality, and friendly competition that is epitomized in this association. My life, and the lives of my students are enhanced by IPDA.
Again, I am honored to be nominated for the Bennett Strange Coach of the Year Award. To be mentioned in the same sentence as that of my teacher, coach, mentor, colleague , and friend is truly an honor and I would be humbled beyond measure to receive this award created in his name.
From Nomination: Since restarting the program in the fall of 2013, the competitive success of Joe’s teams at Lee College speaks for itself – including the first and second place season long competitors in the novice division last season and five students (as of this writing) ranked in the top ten of season long amongst the novice and varsity divisions. However, the honor of the Bennett Strange Coach of the Year represents more than just competitive success; from my perspective, it is about the development of students, commitment to the organization and to the activity, and I believe Joe represents each of these.
I’ve seen Joe work tirelessly on behalf of his students, helping them to achieve their potential not only in debate but in their roles as students and future leaders. For example, just last year Joe helped one of his debaters, Zach Martin, in earning a Jack Kent Cooke Scholarship to be able to pursue his goals. Joe’s also in touch with many of his former competitors back to the teams he coached from 1998-2002 at the University of West Florida, serving as a mentor in their professional lives.
While for many, Joe may be a relatively new face to the IPDA organization (with the Lee College program just returning to competition last year), he has been active in the organization for some time. Dating back to those UWF teams beginning in the late 90’s, Joe developed an appreciation for the IPDA format; and, while IPDA wasn’t offered much in the West Florida region, annually he would enter competitors in IPDA whenever attending the LSU-Shreveport tournament. Even while the Lee College program was dormant, Joe served as an IPDA Governing Board member (and he is currently serving a second non-consecutive term), was instrumental in the development of the current IPDA website, and has been an ambassador for the organization helping to recruit new programs to the activity.
Finally, it’s Joe’s commitment to the activity that may serve as inspiration for us all. In the fall of 2006, Joe left the private sector to re-enter the academic world with a goal of re-establishing a debate program that had been shuttered at Lee College. Having not received administrative support yet, Joe decided to demonstrate “proof of concept” to the administration during the 2007-2008 season and began traveling a small group of students and covering travel expenses from his own pocket. As the 2008 season drew to a close, it appeared that the Lee College administration was ready to fully fund the program & Lee served as host for the 2008 IPDA National Championship Tournament. Unfortunately, there was some damage that was done in one of the preparation rooms during the 2008 tournament and when this was reported to Joe’s administration, they decided not to fund the team for the following year. For many, this would be the last straw in a disheartening run of budget anticipation; however, Joe believed in the activity too much to give up. Instead, he continued to work with students, teaching them the IPDA format even though they were unable to travel; meanwhile, he continued to attend tournaments whenever he could, to help in tab, help as judge, or just help in any way that he could be of assistance. After administrative changes, in 2012-2013, Joe again began traveling a few students in a self-funded attempt to demonstrate proof of concept to his administration. With Lee College now being headed by their fourth president to preside over the college since Joe’s first season in attempting to start the program, the administration saw the value in what Joe and the Lee students were doing and chose to fully fund the program beginning with the 2013-2014 season. It’s this unwavering commitment to the activity that makes Joe worthy of the honor of this award.
The competitive success that Joe’s teams have had over the last two years, not to mention the fact that these students are representing a community college, is nothing short of amazing. His commitment to the development of students and unwavering commitment to the organization and activity – spanning back to the early days of this organization – illustrates his dedication. And it is for these reasons that I humbly submit Joe Ganakos for the honor of the Bennett Strange Coach of the Year and urge you to consider voting for Joe.
From Nomination: Mike is the driving force behind the growth of IPDA in the Northwest. His team and individual competitors won several tournaments this year and are competitive for multiple season-long awards. They will only become better as the organization grows in his region of the country. His teams are always well-prepared and, more importantly, understand the spirit of IPDA and compete accordingly. His appointment to the IPDA Governing Board attests to his reputation within the organization. He would be a worthy standard-bearer to carry on the legacy of Dr. Strange!
Candidate Statement: It is a privilege to coach wonderful students and be part of this amazing organization. Whitworth won eight of the nine tournaments attended this year, and in varsity division closed out quarterfinals at Lower Columbia and at Western States, had seven of the eight quarterfinalists at Western Washington, six of the eight quarterfinalists at Oregon State and closed out semifinals at Linfield, the largest IPDA tournament in our region. Whitworth had the top debate speaker eight times, had novice, junior and varsity students win tournaments, and the Northwest Forensics Conference recognized Whitworth as the top IPDA program in the region for the second consecutive year. It is an honor to serve in tab rooms, help generate topics and promote the important values of IPDA. I am humbled by this nomination and am grateful to be considered.
Below are nominations that have been received and any information available provided by them and/or their nominations.
From Nomination: It is with great pride that I nominate Jeremy Coffman, ADF at Prairie View A&M, for the open position on the Governing Board. I have known Jeremy for six years, during which time we have coached together at both Sam Houston State University and Tennessee State University, and can speak better than anyone as to his impressive qualifications. Jeremy began as one of my students and immediately set himself apart as a leader and a competitor. In one of our first conversations, he told me he wanted to learn how to coach. At the end of the year, I promoted him to Assistant Coach and eventually to Co-Coach by his final year in the program.
During his tenure as a competitor, he earned three national championships in the Varsity, Team, and Professional divisions. He has been instrumental in the planning and administration of the five tournaments we have hosted together, including the national tournament. In addition, he has helped to start successful debate programs at three universities: Sam Houston, Tennessee State, and now Prairie View A&M where he moved an existing NPDA program into IPDA. When the organization honored me with the Bennett Strange Coach of the Year Award in 2012, I can attest that the level of success I achieved that year would not have been possible without his support.
As a former Chair of the Governing Board, I am aware of the qualities it takes to successfully participate. Jeremy has proven himself repeatedly to be a selfless advocate for the betterment of the organization. As a decorated former competitor, he can offer unique insights as the Board deliberates concerning issues pertitnent to IPDA's future. Further, his election would be the first time in the history of the organization that a HBCU would be represented. As you consider which candidate to support as we head into the National Tournament and Convention, I sincerely hope that you will choose Jeremy.
Candidate Statement: As many of you may or may not know, I've been part of the IPDA organization in some capacity for over ten years. I've seen this organization grow and change dramatically—both in size, and shape. I was part of IPDA back when we outwardly identified ourselves as being the only organization "Open" to all competitors from all walks of life, naming a division after the spirit behind that. I've seen this organization go through ebbs and flows, with the addition of programs and competitors, and even its share of growing pains, as we strived to share our values of real-world debate, and accessible argumentation with programs across the nation. I would not be the man I am today without this organization, and the valuable lifelong lessons it has taught me. I believe in its ability to foster not only a true spirit of critical thinking and adaptability to people from all walks of life, but also its ability to train students and professors alike to engage in rational discourse, supported by ordered support.
This is why, throughout my tenure as a member of the IPDA circuit, I have dedicated myself to the growth and further advancement of this organization. I have welcomed new programs, spent countless hours with coaches and competitors alike, all to help acclimate them to the IPDA format; including Har-Ber High School in Springdale, Arkansas, Texas A&M International in Laredo Texas, as well as Lee College in Baytown, Texas. I have also dedicated myself to the advancement of the Professional Division by founding the Independent Debate Coalition- a group of post-academic debaters who have united to not only continue participating in debate, but to also see this organization continue to affirm its values by welcoming everyone with an interest in debate to our activity. I have served as a volunteer debate coach for the past five years for several different programs, tirelessly devoting my efforts to providing students the same opportunities this organization has provided me.
After careful consideration, I have decided to pursue the open position on the Governing Board. I believe my unique perspective as a product of this organization will enable me to continue steering this organization in a direction toward positive growth, while keeping intact our unique identity in the world of competitive forensics. I hope I will have your support in this endeavor. I will continue striving for the highest levels of integrity in my own actions, while seeking to promote the sustainable growth in directions that align with our goals, and mission statement. I look forward to hopefully representing each of you as the newest member of the Governing Board for the International Public Debate Association.
From Nomination: Pat Richey's dedication to the International Public Debate Association is without question and he is the very model of "servant leadership". Pat, the Head Coach of the Middle Tennessee State University Debate Team and outgoing IPDA Governing Board Chair, was one of the driving forces behind the amazing hosting effort at the 2014 IPDA National Championship Tournament in Murfreesboro, TN. Pat's exemplary service on the Governing Board and his longtime role as Historian of the IPDA is proof positive of his unflagging commitment to helping the IPDA continue to grow. Having had the pleasure of working alongside Pat, I can say without hesitation that his continued presence on the Governing Board will benefit the organization as a whole and provide us a valuable advocate for continued expansion east of the Mississippi River.

Animation is an elegant and emotional art form that can impact the audience in ways live action movies cannot. Expressive and immersive in storytelling, the medium is also a complex and challenging method of creating films.
I've had the good fortune to work at many amazing studios: Walt Disney Feature Animation, DreamWorks Animation, LAIKA Entertainment, and ImageMovers Digital. Each of these studios pushed the boundaries of storytelling and production, always witha desire to create amazing stories but also a desire to build incredible studios. It was incredible to be a part of these movies and studios.
Below are some of the films I have worked on with some links to check them out.
Check out LinkedIn and IMDb for more info.
I worked at ImageMovers Digital on two films, Mars Needs Moms and A Christmas Carol. IMD was a studio using motion capture and other innovative technology to create animated movies. My role for these films was as the Scene Layout Supervisor. MNM trailer. ACC trailer.
LAIKA Entertaiment for a few years was going to make CG films in addition to their stop motion films. While Jack & Ben was cancelled, we did make a couple shorts. Jack & Ben star in "The Mouse That Soared". I was the Head of Layout for the studio. Watch the film.
Over The Hedge tells the tale of woodland creatures foraging through the encroaching neighborhood. Working at DreamWorks was a tremendous experience, and this film remains one of my favorites. I was the Final Layout Supervisor for the film. Watch the trailer.
Previous animated movies include Dinosaur, Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, Treasure Planet, and others. For these films I had various roles.

What Caused the Dec. 2015 Tornadoes?
Monday marked the one year anniversary of the deadly tornado outbreak that killed 13 people.
A total of 12 tornadoes hit eight counties in North Texas. Three of the tornadoes were rated EF2 or higher, with most of the fatalities occurring at the Interstate-30 interchange with President George Bush Turnpike.
There was a very strong cold front draped across Texas and Oklahoma with an area of low pressure near the Red River. Ahead of the front, dew points were in the 70s. It was cloudy, but instability and wind shear values were favorable for severe storms.
During the morning hours the National Weather Service, The Storm Prediction Center and meteorologists at NBC 5 issued warnings about the potential for severe weather that day.
At noon, the National Weather Service launched a special weather balloon to gather additional data (this is typically done only twice a day- morning and night).
The new information was not good news.
Instability levels were three times higher than normal December standards, there was no cap (a cap prevents storms from forming) and low level winds and shear were increasing (wind shear is wind in different directions with height. Winds turn, like a tornado). With this new data, a Tornado watch was issued.
Below is the map of watches and warnings.
While north Texas was under a Tornado Watch, areas to the west had Blizzard Warnings.
The first Tornado Warning was issued at 1:43 p.m. The outbreak lasted all evening with the last warning issued at 11:30 p.m.

Project description:Rationale: Slit2 is a possible modulator of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) - induced angiogenesis, but its effects have not been tested in large animal models. Objective: We studied the effect of Slit2 on therapeutic angiogenesis induced by VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2) ligands Vammin and VEGF-DΔNΔC in vivo in rabbit skeletal muscles. The Slit2 target genes were also studied by RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) in endothelial cells. Methods and Results: Adenoviral intramuscular gene transfers were performed into rabbit hindlimbs. Confocal and multiphoton microscopy were used for blood vessel imaging. Signaling experiments and gene expression analyses were performed to study mechanisms of Slit2 action. Slit2 decreased VEGFR2-mediated vascular permeability. It also reduced VEGFR2-mediated increase in blood perfusion and capillary enlargement, whereas sprouting of the capillaries was increased. Slit2 gene transfer alone did not have any effects on vascular functions or morphology. VEGFR2 activation was not affected by Slit2, but eNOS phosphorylation was diminished. The transcriptome profiling showed Slit2 downregulating angiogenesis-related genes such as nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 1 (NR4A1) and Stanniocalcin-1 (STC-1) as well as genes related to endothelial cell migration and vascular permeability. Conclusions: Combining Slit2 with VEGFs adjusts VEGFR2-mediated angiogenic effects into a more physiological direction. This possibly allows the use of higher VEGF vector doses to achieve a more widespread vector and VEGF distribution in the target tissues leading to a better therapeutic outcome while reducing excess vascular permeability. HUVEC mRNA profiles after adenoviral vector gene transfers in duplicate.
Project description:Herein, we report viral interferon regulatory factor 3 (vIRF3) as a pro-angiogenic factor together with HDAC5 that coordinates with LEC transcriptome, thus resulting in hyper-sprouting formation and ultimately leading to abnormal lymphangiogenesis. Overexpression of vIRF3 in LECs but not blood endothelial cells (BECs) exhibited a unique KSHV-associated angiogenic effect, evidenced by elongated spindle shape, sprouting, and tube formation. Furthermore, using vIRF3 knockout recombinant KSHV, we confirmed that vIRF3 is a critical factor of KSHV-mediated lymphangiogenesis in primary LECs. Overall design: 3 control, 3 overexpressor each in LECs and BECs.
Project description:Disordered angiogenesis is implicated in the pulmonary vascular remodeling secondary to congenital heart disease (CHD). However, the underlying genes are not well delineated. We have previously shown that an ovine model of CHD with increased pulmonary blood flow (PBF, Shunt) has an “angiogenesis burst” between 1-4 weeks of age. Thus, we hypothesized that the increased pulmonary blood flow elicited a pro-angiogenic gene expression profile prior to the onset of vessel growth. To test this we utilized microarray analysis to identify genes that could be responsible for the angiogenic response. Total RNA was isolated from the lungs of Shunt and Control lambs at 3 days of age and hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChips for microarray analyses (n=8 for each group). A total of 89 angiogenesis-related genes were found to be up-regulated and 26 angiogenesis-related genes down-regulated in Shunt lungs compared to control (cutting at 1.2 fold difference, P<0.05). We then confirmed the up-regulation of pro-angiogenic genes: FGF2, Angiopoietin2 (Angpt2), and Birc5 at both mRNA and protein levels and the up-regulation of ccl2 at mRNA level in the 3-day shunt lungs. Further, we found that pulmonary arterial endothelial cells (PAEC) isolated from juvenile lambs exhibited increased expression of FGF2, Angpt2, Birc5, and ccl2 as well as enhanced angiogenesis when exposed to elevated shear stress (35 dyn/cm2) compared to cells exposed to more physiological level shear stress (20 dyn/cm2). Finally, we demonstrated that blocking FGF2, Angpt2, or Birc 5 signaling, using neutralizing antibodies, significantly decreased the angiogenic response induced by shear stress. In conclusion, we have identified a pro-angiogenic gene expression profile in a lamb model of CHD with increased PBF that precedes the onset of pulmonary vascular remodeling. Further, our data indicate that FGF2, Angiopoietin2, Birc5, and ccl2 may play important roles in the angiogenic response. Overall design: Total RNA was isolated from the lungs of Shunt and Control lambs at 3 days of age and hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChips for microarray analyses. Eight chips were employed for both control and shunt groups.

Whether it be high racking, dense and metallic goods being stored or local interference which could affect signal levels our engineers will take this into account when designing the network. The engineering team will design and install a network that guarantees coverage to pre-defined signal level to ensure even the smallest of devices like phones or handheld devices have fast stable connections.
Applications such as VoIP, video and certain audio applications can require prioritised and guaranteed bandwidth to run effectively.Our networks can be fully optimised to give quality and priority of service to any application. We can then constantly manage and monitor performance via our cloud controller software allowing us to make any changes to your network instantly. The team can also create a specific cloud based controller for you with full or read only access should you wish to manage the network or have visibility.
Another factor to keep in mind is how these old devices are being used. Are they scanning items at ground level, or at all levels of the warehouse? This makes a major difference in deciding the placement and type of Access Points or antennas that are required for a strong network.
Lastly, we always recommend updating to the latest firmware on all the client devices as well as the, WiFi system itself (i.e. Access Points or Controller). Why should you upgrade regularly? For one there may already be a “fix” to the issues you’re experiencing and the upgrade will resolve this. Plus it’s free to upgrade, so there’s nothing to lose.
Where are the Access Points(APs) currently located in your depot or warehouse?
Are they mounted on the walls, ceiling or racking?
Also are directional or omnidirectional antennas in use?
At what height are they mounted and are they mounted vertically or horizontally?
All these things make a great deal of difference to your wireless signal propagation and coverage. For example, if we placed a 2.2dBi omnidirectional antenna on a ceiling, with a height of 6 metres, it may give wireless coverage to the warehouse aisle floor – but a 12dBi omnidirectional antenna would not. This all comes down to the design of the network and whether or not it is optimal for your warehouse. That means careful planning is required when choosing the correct Access Point and antenna combination. Other considerations for your warehouse WiFi include whether or not to use an integral or external antenna. Finally, is your Access Point required to work in extreme temperatures or in moisture-rich environments within the warehouse facility? If so there are plenty of options available, such as hardened or sealed Access Points, and also the use of external antennas.
If you find you have poor WiFi coverage in your warehouse, then setting the power level, or leaving it on the often-default setting of full power, is rarely the best path to take. Conversely, it usually adds to the issues. There are various reasons for this. A common one is that the client devices can see the AP signal, but the AP can’t see the clients’ return signal (as APs generally have a higher Transmit Power compared to 99% of clients. A way to picture this is a conversation between two people on opposite ends of your warehouse – only one of them us issuing a megaphone, and the other does not. Also, higher power levels can increase interference, due to the increased coverage. Obviously, this depends on how many Access Points are in use, the antenna patterns, as well as building and racking attenuation factors.
Your warehouse or depot will rarely remain the same inside. You may have to increase the amount of racking depending on business growth, or there may be seasonal variations in the goods you store there. This amount of variation is often not taken into consideration when planning your wireless coverage, so it’s often best to plan for the racking to be full at the start of your warehouse project. Be aware of the type of goods that are stored in your warehouse, as they will have differing attenuation figures. For example, a warehouse that stocks wooden furniture will affect the wireless signal differently to one that stocks metal car parts.
The most common wireless bands used in the UK are the 2.4GHz band and the 5GHz band. The 2.4GHz band is much smaller, with only 3 non-overlapping channels (never use any overlapping channels if at all possible). So as soon as you install over three Access Points (APs) you have the possibility of starting to create your own interference. Although there are many more complexities, in short the main thing you need to know is that the 5GHz band can take up to 19 indoor channels, somewhat more than the 2.4Ghz band. You might think it sounds easy, and that you should just use the 5Ghz band. Unfortunately, it’s not as simple as that. Other issues can adversely affect this band too, such as interference from neighbouring buildings, signal propagation or even weather radar using some of the channels. That said, it’s still the best band to base your design around.
Note: Only 3 2.4Ghz channels 1, 6 and 11 can be considered non-overlapping, whereas the 5GHz band can have up 19 non-overlapping channels.
You can see there are many factors that can affect WiFi performance in your warehouse facility. So, where do you start? A wireless survey is essential, whether you need to pinpoint the flaws in your current setup, or design a brand new WiFi network for your warehouse project. If you need help planning or improving your warehouse wireless network, then get in touch with one of our experts today.

My baby boy started kindergarten today. The boy who made me a mama.
I don't want to close my eyes for too long, I don't want to wish one day away because these past five years have been a blink. It's cliche, it's old news. But, it's true, it's true, it's true. This time is fleeting and I'm gonna hold onto each day, each moment, each age, with each of my babies.
He did so well. He's been asking every day if he could go to kindergarten. I blinked back tears when he hung onto my legs as we waited in the line for all the other kindergarteners. And then I was the only mom that walked back to the classroom with the kids. Yep, I'm that mom. Not afraid to claim it. I was sipping mimosas in Seattle when all the other moms brought their kids supplies in the week before. So that's my excuse to walk my baby back. I had to carry all those supplies. Duh.
He was ready to face the world, or full day kindergarten, which is pretty much the same thing. He rocked his favorite dino t-shirt, converse, and his spiky little faux hawk. As bittersweet as it was to have my baby gone all day, I have such a peace, and excitement for him as he starts this journey.
omgosh! he's soo adorable! glad that he is loving it! so crazy he is so big already!
oh girl. my heart. he is such a dude with that spiky hair and dino shirt! we will be there next year and it really does fly by. sayin' a little prayer this morning for you guys as you embark on this new journey.
and i am totally that mom that walks here kid into the class room. all about the school supplies, obviously. i also happen to be the mom bawling in the parking lot. love you.
Oh, this is precious. And heartbreaking. Just the realization of how quickly time passes and how before I know it my little four month old baby boy with be a big kindergartner. It's so tough on the heart to be a mama sometimes, isn't it?
my chest literally felt heavy as i imagined him hanging onto your legs. and you walking back to his classroom. i will absolutely one hundred percent be that mom. and also the one who gets into the car in the parking lot and sobs. i could do it now just imagining it.
his shirt! his hair! his excitement! such a sweet little stud.
i will totally be the same way with my little dude. i tell myself everyday, must.stop.blinking.
Oh Man. My oldest started Kindergarten last week and I wish I had such peace about it! It's not even full day :/ My girl could not love it more, though. To our babies (raising coffee mug)!!!

Moth Lane Brewing’s first year in business brought phenomenal success that caused them to run out of beer more than once.
Now new government support may help the Prince County employer grow to satisfy the thirst of its eager customers. Owner and brewmaster Eric Wagner says he’ll be looking to the Small Business Investment Grant as he expands his operation and hires new employees.
The business opened its doors on Mickey Allen’s Shore Road in Ellerslie in December 2017. Like the Island economy, demand for local craft brews is on a tear and Wagner said he doesn’t want to miss those opportunities again.
The 2018 budget includes a number of measures aimed at supporting the small businesses that create jobs and economic activity across the province. Measures include a small business tax cut of .5 per cent per year and investment grant of 15 per cent on investments up to $25,000. The province also awarded $2 million in job-related funding to community partners across the province.
Economic Development and Tourism Minister Chris Palmer said the supports will help business large and small to create opportunities for Island talent at the same time as they add value to Island resources .
Wagner said he employs two people full-time with two more in the summer. He said his brewery’s out-of-the-way location has not proven a barrier to tourists who travel the byways and red dirt road to Moth Lane Brewing.
The brewery’s next plans include increased brewing capacity and a bottling line.
She may have left Prince Edward Island for the bright lights of Toronto, but to get the career and lifestyle she wanted, Emily Coffin came right back home.
Her family moved to the Island when she was 11 and starting seventh grade. After high school Emily studied computer programming at Holland College, but she wasn’t sure that it would lead to any local job prospects.
First Emily moved to Halifax, where she became captivated by the business and design side of technology. Then Toronto called, and she felt at home instantly. It was there that she found Ladies Learning Code (now called Canada Learning Code), which supported young women in the male-dominated tech industry. She volunteered to mentor at a Girls Learning Code (a subset of the larger organization) workshop and was hooked.
She went back to school to take a user experience (UX) design program. Emily wanted to work for herself and freelance, but she found the market in Toronto was saturated with UX designers, and she struggled to make that dream a reality.
But Prince Edward Island was a different story.
Coffin moved back to the Island in 2016 and has freelanced as a UX designer for more than a year. Last year, she started a tech education company of her own – codeAtlantic – focusing on in-depth programs in areas such as web development and design. The company operates out of Charlottetown’s Startup Zone.
The only thing missing was her Canada Learning Code community from Toronto. But she remedied that soon after arriving back on the Island.
“PEI was the only province in which we didn’t have a presence, so I approached our CEO about starting a chapter, and she enthusiastically gave me the green light,” Emily said. The PEI chapter has since run several successful workshops for youth and adults.
Get more information about moving to PEI, including job opportunities, housing, and more.
Erin McGrath-Gaudet says Prince Edward Island’s 2018-19 operating budget shows government is listening to small business.
“A lot of business owners have spent years struggling,” said McGrath-Gaudet, the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) director for PEI and intergovernmental policy.
“The half percentage point tax rate reduction gives a lot of confidence to small businesses so they can explore growth and reinvest in their business,” McGrath-Gaudet said.
She said the CFIB is closely watching the business investment grant.
She was also pleased to see the bump in the basic personal exemption to provincial income tax.

Incredibly honored to have this 60’ long neon coming to the museum. A 100 year old 3 generation dealership. It will be rebuilt as a double stacked 30’ sign. The story that comes with this sign is incredible and I can’t wait to tell it. The Condino family was nice enough to work with me on a host of items. Many of which will be on display in the spring. The porcelain is all original, not restored and is in incredible condition. Drove 12 hours home from NY yesterday to bring this beauty home.
Location: So. California Wow, that's pretty neat. Congratulations!

Menstrual headaches are one of the most common unpleasant symptoms of the menstrual period, and these headaches have a tangible impact that can be measured in dollars. Researchers estimate that migraines and headaches cost US companies $13 billion per year. Since headache sufferers are three times more likely to be female, those costs due to absenteeism and decreased productivity due to pain disproportionately affect women. Between 60 and 70% of women who get migraines or severe headaches say these are menstrual headaches, so menstrual headaches are not something to be ignored or taken lightly.
Characterized by pain in one or both sides of the head, menstrual headaches can last for hours with most lasting between four and 72 hours. They are often accompanied by nausea, dizziness, vomiting, or blurred vision—common symptoms of migraines. The exact causes of menstrual headaches are complex. The drop in the hormones estrogen and progesterone certainly plays a significant part, but researchers feel that psychological factors also play a role. General anxiety from work, family, or other areas of personal life causes physiological changes that can trigger menstrual headaches.
Menstrual headaches have overlapping triggers, and hormones are definitely the primary culprit, meaning that sufferers should talk to their doctors about any hormone treatments, including birth control pills or other hormonal contraceptives. However, for many women menstrual headaches are the product of a perfect storm produced by both hormonal fluctuations and extreme stress and anxiety.
There are many medications that can aid in treating menstrual headaches. Taking a NSAID for two to three days prior to the menstrual period and continuing throughout can make all the difference for many women. There are also other types of medical treatments available by prescription. For some women, however, because of the gastrointestinal effects of NSAIDs, side effects of the prescription options, or simply personal preference, nonmedical treatment is the best option.
Sometimes, these changes can make all the difference, but there is still a lot of research to be done to determine if chemically these lifestyle changes affect the body’s production of hormones.
Alternative medicine also offers treatments for women who wish to avoid pharmaceutical medications. Herbal remedies like Black Cohosh or Macafem and acupuncture are the most common treatments. The idea behind the herbal remedies is twofold. Black Cohosh is an example of a phytoestrogen product that contains estrogenic components produced by plants. This approach seeks to replace the body’s estrogen or supplement it with plant products. Non-estrogenic herbal remedies like Macafem contain no estrogen, but they are thought to nourish hormone producing glands to balance all hormones, including estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.
Whether looking for medical, nonmedical, or mixed treatment options, all women can find relief for menstrual headaches.

The rap artist Crome has just released a new mixtape, “Devil Wears NewEra”, for free download. The mixtape contains 19 tracks and is featured by several interesting artists. Moonsplash has produced the song “Keep Goin” which is featured by Sindri.
“Crome, is a mixture of battlerap, storytelling, energy, tight flow and is considered by many to be one of Sweden’s best and most promising rappers. After he and NEO Cartoon Lover had a major hit with the song Soopah Fly in countries such as Germany and Australia and a Grammy, Best Rap 2008 at GmmA Awards in Australia, a journey began that would lead to the creation of a mixtape. Now it’s here.
Together with Endlezz Management and Low Key Entertainment Crome has, or Damir Lipovac his real name, designed a mixtape that is more personal than any of his previous works. Devil Wears NewEra is one of this autumn’s most exciting releases, full of humor, personal experiences, and heavy beats with guests such as Royce Da 5’9, Lazee, Danjah, Bobby Bolivian, NEO Cartoon Lover, Henok Achido, Pato Pooh, Quinze, Tony coma, and others.
The release of Devil Wears NewEra is a joint collaboration between Crome, Whoa, King Size Magazine, MyBestFriendIsMyGrind and KlubbKoll.
And do not forget to be on the look out for more material from Crome in 2010. Especially the upcoming full-length “Oscar Performance “, deserves to be mentioned.
Just click the direct link below the tracklist to download “Devil Wears NewEra”!

The Hydrogen being much heavier (1) than common air ascends in the atmosphere till it reaches a place where the air and it are of the same rarity in like manner when a quantity of Hydrogen is enclosed in a silk bag or any other light material it ascends, being much lighter than common air, until it reaches a place where it displaces a quantity of air equal to its own weight and that of the silk &c and there it will remain, things remaining as they were – this is not much better than former explanations.
I intended to inform you better regarding the class I left, but had not sufficient room, before I was in the highest mathematics class, but now another class has commenced, for the students, such as Mr Cochrane and those who were at the Gymnasium before, i.e. those who were at College the last session, and require mathematics for the second year, this is the class that I joined, and we are now at the 6th book.
The Homer that I have got is Ferguson’s edition, which only contains four books. It has a vocabulary which helps a good deal. Homer uses rather strange cases compared to Xenophon, and I find it somewhat difficult. I have been at the bookseller’s today – he had not the book you mentioned, but he is to get it for me by next week.
I am able to make out all your remarks, and that is the first thing I look to when I get a letter from you.
You should get Fowne’s Manual of Chemistry just published at 12/- a new Edition edited by Jones and some other person whose name I forget.

MASTERCLASS: A class given by an expert, especially a musician, for exceptional students, usually presented in public.
As part of our 2018 Philadelphia Classical Guitar Festival the renowned guitarist Manuel Barrueco will follow up his festival opening concert with a masterclass at our full day festival. Skilled students will perform briefly for Mr. Barrueco in the beautiful Presser Hall at the Settlement Music School and they will then be instructed by Mr. Barrueco on ways to improve various musical attributes that could range from tone production, performance preparation, efficient practice, technique, or any other aspect of their playing that he feels he can help the student improve.
Masterclasses are not only a great opportunity for performers to work with renowned performers but also a chance for other guitarists, ranging from professional performers to amateur enthusiasts to gain a unique look at how the mind of a master works and to apply the lessons presented on stage to their own playing and practice.

A low cost, low output power supply intended for powering the microprocessor circuits on the TC-48-20 series, TC-36-25 series, and TC-24-10 temperature controllers when operating in two-power supplies configuration (only needed when operating in two-power supplies configuration).
A 15 VDC, 0.4 Amp power supply for powering TC-48-20 series controllers when using a two-power supplies configuration. The PS-15-0.4 is not required for the TC-48-20 series when using a single power supply with an output voltage of >9 and < 50 volts.
This power supply can also be used to power the microprocessor on the TC-24-10 and the TC-36-25 series temperature controllers (when operating a two-power supplies configuration). However, when used with these controllers the barrel connector on the PS-15-0.4 will need to be removed and the power wires connected directly to the controllers, as these temperature controllers do not have the mating plug for the barrel connector.
Please note that this will not power a load, it is intended for powering the electronics of the controller only. A separate power supply must be used for powering the load — see the temperature controller manuals for further information.

Nice interesting case studies. Will be eye opener for many startup aspirants.
Publish answers in the post-event posting.
Is this the quiz for underworld? Or is this forum run by the members of underworld?
First Bollywood, then advertisers, now even technical forums are unashamedly using (and glorifying) the language used by underworld. Its blasphemous.
Believe me, its not fun anymore. Is there no decorum left in this country?
I strongly object and protest to the words like ‘Khoka’. (for your info: Peti and Khoka are underworld terms and not Gujarati terms. – http://www.sepiamutiny.com/sepia/archives/004026.html). I’m not quitting the quiz.
And I’m discontinuing my membership of this forum in utter disgust. I’m ashamed of the language used.
i am glad you have left the forum – instead of commenting on the content and the work that navin is putting in – you would rather delve on khokha and peti —– – these words are a part of Indian popular culture.
I am surprised to see such a comment, i have started gaining interest in this only because of the way @navin put up these things.
Its a totally boring topic otherwise and would have made no sense… totally appreciate the author’s intent and efforts to formulate such a superb form!
I really appreciate the speakers intent of publishing the Quiz….it really made me understand the importance of these topics….
The language used was really simple.
Who is Unmesh and why do you keep selling his work for cardboard boxes? Do post the answers to the quiz, but my general take on anything related to patents, copyrights and trademarks is being paranoic helps.
Unfortunately I missed this event. Where can I find answers to these questions ? I really need them for my personal use.
Sorry, I got unexpected busy at work this week, hence the answers will have to wait a few days more.

The iPhone's long-awaited arrival on Japan's largest carrier could signal big trouble for other smartphone manufacturers, as the carrier has announced that the iPhone 5s and 5c will likely account for 40 percent of its future smartphone contracts.
The announcement of a deal to get the iPhone onto NTT DoCoMo sent ripples through Japan's native smartphone environment. DoCoMo has previously worked with other smartphone makers to boost sales in the absence of an iPhone option, but the carrier according to Nikkei offered the 40 percent quota to Apple as a concession to land the bestselling smartphone.
In the years since the iPhone's introduction, DoCoMo has slowly but surely lost subscribers, as it did not carry Apple's smartphone. The carrier's rivals, though, do carry the iPhone, and they have prospered as DoCoMo has struggled. While DoCoMo added just 43,000 users in August, KDDI added 209,200, and SoftBank added 250,300.
While it remains Japan's largest wireless carrier with roughly 60 million subscribers, about half of Japan's population DoCoMo executives have in the past explicitly blamed the iPhone as a reason for subscriber losses. Apple and DoCoMo were until recently at an impasse, with DoCoMo insisting that it be able to preinstall carrier-specific software on Apple's phone and Apple resisting. It is unclear how the two companies came to an agreement and what, if any, concessions Apple made in the process.
The DoCoMo deal may not signal the end for the major Japanese handset manufacturers; Sony, with 20.6 percent of the Japanese market, and Sharp (13.9 percent) will likely continue on, though in a tougher position. Some other smaller players, though, are likely in trouble.
"Japanese handset manufacturers are already bound for extinction," Ichiyoshi Investment Management's chief fund manager told Yahoo News, "and this will just accelerate that process. Firms such as Fujitsu and Kyocera could go the way of NEC, which is now pulling out of handsets. Panasonic is also cutting back on smartphones.

Plautus, a Roman philosopher once wrote, “A girl without paint is like meals without salt.” I’m not sure he could get away with that right this moment. A Beauty and Beast love story for youngsters: This is a couple of rich, boastful, fashionable, and self-centered pupil who exhibits no respect for his classmates. Beauty pageants could be categorized as glitz pageants, low glitz pageants, or natural pageants.
The Sleeping Beauty teaches us there may be time for all the things and even waiting (doing nothing) can have important role in some life phases. She is a Taiwanese actress and mannequin who has appeared primarily in Hong Kong films. The lady managed to run away and sought refuge at a shelter for abused women and girls.
Is beauty a blessing just because an individual is merely lovely to look at? Beauty pageants can have a function past showcasing lovely individuals, and the question is applicable to football, baseball, basketball, and race-car driving, and many others… The primary goal appears to be entertainment, and naturally to become profitable.
Definition of Beauty: “The quality or combination of qualities in an individual or factor that gives pleasure to the senses or pleasurably exalts the thoughts or spirit : loveliness” Merriam-Webster Dictionary. I like what you have stated, the beauty of a girl is found from her being who she is, I am who I’m†that means being natural.
Michelle is really some of the stunning girls of all time. I could sense your beautiful persona and tender approach of approaching (and teaching) people. I love how individuals assume being giant was the standard of beauty. If an attractive ladies or a good-looking man loses physical attraction, he or she would fail getting response from different individuals.
Not one of the girls on this era had a lot of individuals or magazines to match their body picture to. Magazines had been for the wealthy and the literate. It persistently amuses me once I see one person get all enthusiastic about how ‘lovely’ somebody is, however the individual they (often he) is speaking to will wholeheartedly disagree!

Reymund (Taylor Lautner: Twilight franchise) has been caring for his ten-year-old younger brother Oliver ever since their mother (Constance Zimmer: Entourage, House of Cards) was sent to prison six years ago.
Reymund still lives in his hometown, working at the local gas station/grocery store owned by his mom’s ex-husband Bo, offering his brother the childhood he never had.
But when their mother is released from prison and determined to rebuild their family, Reymund makes a desperate break for the life they have always wanted by kidnapping him and they head for the Californian coast. He also hopes romance will rekindle with old-flame Michelle (Johanna Braddy: Easy A, Quantico).

It’s a hugely interesting development – Michael Mansfield QC, who heads up Mansfield Chambers has offered, along with Public Interest Lawyers to help survivors secure a central role within the nation’s Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse.
This move comes after concerns that the Inquiry would not be able to investigate the establishment independently as it stands, despite its Survivors Panel and regular meetings with victims of child sexual abuse.
Lead by the SOIA (Survivors of Organised & Institutional Abuse), which is an offshoot of the White Flowers Campaign, a project designed to monitor and assist the Independent Inquiry Into Child Sexual Abuse, this initiative seeks to involve all survivors and victims of child sexual abuse who wish to have a voice or guide the inquiry as it progresses.
Core participants/ What does it mean and why is it important?
“For the Inquiry to have any legitimacy it must place Survivors first and foremost. It was no good asking the Establishment to investigate themselves. There was and is corruption saturating every level of the Establishment. That is why it is vital for Survivors and Whistleblowers, under the umbrella of Whiteflowers, to mount “collective action” as Michael Mansfield QC, put it, to force the Inquiry to be a meaningful and credible process.
This can happen if we pull our weight behind the SOIA application to be treated not just as witnesses or consultants but as Core Participants.
Practically, SOIA will make an application to the Inquiry assisted by PIL, (Public Interest Lawyers) and Mansfield Chambers (who have worked for free) to the Inquiry for us to be treated as ‘core participants’. If this application is granted Survivors will have a permanent and independent place within the Inquiry.
What is the legal definition of a core participant?
Then the chair can designate a single representative BUT the core participants must agree.
If you would like to get involved, please get in touch, either via email or through the comments section below and we will send you further information and the application form for you to fill out.
Many thanks to Terri Thatcher for sharing this item with us.
I would like to get Involved with this enquiry. As non sufficient has ever been undertaken. My brother is dead because of the abuse inflicted upon him and my big sister well she needs recognition for all the abuse and tortures inflicted. I just want prove that the local authority is now protect not violate the children. Any help or guidance would be gratefully received.
Hi Rainbow, I’m going to send you the forms shortly. Many thanks for your comment, and I’m so sorry to hear about your brother and sister. My thoughts are with you.
Any abuse is unquestionably wrong, CHILD ABUSE STRIKES AT THE VERY HEART OF WHAT WE AS A SOCIETY, MUST SEEK TO PREVENT! All the DOGOODERS do not see the victims as those of us in the investigative process did and DO! One might say a ALIEN landing on EARTH, tommorrow, would they declare us FIT TO JOIN THE CIVILIZATIONS of other worlds? Or are WE unfit, because of our COLLECTIVE BARBARITY ? Extreme perhaps but think BIG I always have!

Choosing the right taps for your bathroom can really make a difference but it can get a little confusing as there is such a huge choice of styles, types, finishes, shapes and sizes.
The type of heating system that is present in your property can also have an affect on the choices available to you. Many continental bathroom taps are designed to work with high pressure heating systems, but a large proportion of UK heating systems operate using low pressure hot water.
Glass sinks are now very popular in UK bathrooms but they need to be carefully matched with the right type of taps, to ensure you get the right height and projection. It is normally best to source the sink and the tap from the same supplier to ensure they are compatible. A glass basin will usually require a tall basin mixer design although it is always best to check this before buying.

What do you keep your winged Hive tyrant in?
Re: What do you keep your winged Hive tyrant in?
Well, I use a toolbox filled with foam for my larger creatures.
A Hive Tyrant with both the wings and box-with-paper-padding upgrades may upgrade his box-with-paper-padding to a box-with-peanuts-or-torn-foam for +15 points.
Trade off 3 spinegaunts for it or something.
The old generation box that the gaunt swarm came in is large enough to fit my unusually tall flyrant. I fill it with torn foam.
I carry mine in the top portion of my tackle box.
mine, although not yet assembelled will have its wings pinned so that I can fit it in an ordinary army case more easily.
Seconded. I believe that's what Gareth does too.
My flyrant usually rides shotgun on the seat surrounded by boxes (as in my gaunts warriors etc are in the GW boxes they came in, and I surround him so he won't fall off in the event of a quick turn). If walking he is in my hand. He has broken twice already (not the wings, but his tail as he has no legs and his tail supports him) so I am getting tired of repairing it.

As stressed throughout the book, that the evil ally themselves against the good to render them ineffective, and that they will strive to do harm to them, is a fact proclaimed in the Qur'an. God has made clear in several verses that people complying with the call of Satan will expend great effort to hinder people from living by the principles of the Qur'an. That is the reason why the good must always be alert and cautious of evil, and interpret all that happens around them in the light of the Qur'an.
Though we must bear in mind that the activities carried out by the collaboration of the wicked are complex, the fact remains that a person who interprets the world according to the Qur'an will have no difficulty in recognising these intricacies, and grasp that many of the events he once took for granted are in reality part of a plan implemented by the wicked.
In the following pages, a number of examples of the devious and subtle approaches of the alliance of the evil will be provided. The purpose here is to help the sincere servants of God to recognise the evil around them and to show them a way out.
The most apparent trait of an insincere and devious person is his presenting of himself as a totally different person. He seems to oppose immorality, rebellion, disloyalty, prostitution, and similar forms of wickedness, while he himself lives a despicable life. Typically, such a person, would one day act as a fervent advocator of religious values, and another as a guardian of chastity, who sternly condemns others for their immoral conduct. As if he were the most honest or sincere person on earth, he would criticise the deceitful conduct of others, even as far as saying he is astounded by such immoral conduct and condemn it. Those who are unable to consider such things carefully and who readily accept anything they hear and see, are likely to be deceived by the type of person who feigns "innocence and goodness".
For this reason, the evil, although greater in number, are always much weaker than the good. Being well aware that by nature believers are good and tender-hearted people, they can resort only to"slander". To this end, they exploit every possible opportunity.
As the Qur'an informs, throughout history, good and sincere people were blamed of sorcery, lying, opportunism, perversion, and subjected to various other forms of slander. That is why, in no period of history, believers who became the object of such slanderous accusations, were neither surprised nor upset. On the contrary, experiencing these events which also befell the prophets and true believers add to their zeal.
Among the most recognised characteristics of disbelievers are greed and selfishness. Particularly, they avoid spending their money for a good cause. They are often reluctant to give away even a portion of their money and property to earn the good pleasure of God. However, when they are called to evil, they never avoid spending of what they have. Furthermore, each group within the alliance of evil competes with the others in inflicting the most harm on the good. They motivate those who may be slow or perhaps hesitant in hatching plots against the good, and make sure they spend as much energy as possible towards this cause.
Mocking believers and speaking ill of them are some of the methods adopted by the wicked against the righteous, in an attempt to humiliate believers and make them seem insignificant and worthless in the eyes of others. Their purpose in this case is to eradicate the good, to hinder the spread of moral values based on the teachings of the Qur'an, and prevent people from following their way.
The truly good, conscientious and sincere, also invite their fellow men to live by the same conscientiousness and sincerity. They are highly committed to communicating to them the blessings of Qur'anic morals, the reality of the Day of Judgement and the hereafter, and the importance of having fear for God. Their sincerity usually makes a positive impression on the majority of people, fostering faith in God, good morals, righteousness, blessings, conscientiousness, loyalty, support, respect and love. Those harbouring enmity towards one another or otherwise dissidenting people unite, thanks to the positive influence effected by the good.
No doubt, such improvements to society are not in accordance with the plan of the evil, the envious and those indulging in immorality. In order to reverse these positive effects, the evil mock the good, accuse them of insanity, shallow-mindedness, bigotry, deceit, imposture, the intention being to bring them into disrepute. They think the views and efforts of a person who is portrayed as insane or as a forger could no longer win people's respect. This is a tactic which has been employed for thousands of years by deceitful and devious people, all disbelievers and hypocrites, but which has never attained success.
As mentioned earlier, the underlying reason for the aggressive attitude and hatred felt by the wicked towards the good, is their not adhering to the wishes of the immoral and unscrupulous people who do not observe God's limits, and their considering God's commands and prohibitions over and above their own desires. Meeting a conscientious Muslim, who guards against evil and does not follow his ego (an-nafs), such people adopt an aggressive attitude and attempt to hurt him both physically and verbally.
Wicked people are innately prone to using derision and sarcasm against the good. In this regard, both the good and sincere themselves, and the values they advocate, become the target of their derision. From the Qur'an, we learn that derision was something all the messengers encountered. This is the reason why a believer subjected to mockery knows it is something to endure with patience, following the example of the messengers of God, and hopes that it increases his reward in the hereafter. He is sure of one thing; that the mockery will ultimately overcome the one who ridicules, and that he will some day greatly regret what he had done.
One of the hopes of the leaders of evil is to lead a carefree and indulgent life, for which they will not have to give account, and so not have to observe any limits. As we have discussed earlier, in doing so, they do not confess their real intentions, but instead employ deceitful methods to cover their aims.
Firstly, they associate themselves with a group that consists of people who respect no principles, who do not feel any shame, who openly perpetrate immoral acts and use vulgar language. These are the types of people who indulge in all forms of depravity, like homosexuality, prostitution, drugs or gambling. Nevertheless, regardless of their characteristics, some of them have earned positions of respect in society. They are often famous, or known as intellectuals or recognised for other talents. This being the case, their indulgence in immorality is regarded by the rest of society as acceptable. While otherwise socially inadmissible, contemptible and despicable manners and behaviour somehow become tolerated in society when they are associated with such people. The immoral behaviour exemplified by them becomes a defining feature of what is considered "bravery, modernity, freedom and intellectualism." This not being sufficient, these people are also presented as role models, especially to the young, as if they are living a good life. Ultimately, society abounds with those who imitate these people. Their clothing styles, make-up, their manner of speaking, the way they deal with people, and even their preferences in home decoration or social relations, are adopted by their followers. In this way, within a very short period of time the majority of the society is lured into this form of degeneracy.
This process develops so rapidly that manners and conduct one would not dare to consider or even to utter, in just a few years suddenly become socially acceptable. For instance, attitudes towards homosexuality, once a highly scorned and denounced practice, have changed dramatically in some social circles. It is no longer regarded as unusual to make close friends with homosexuals. Surely there exists an alliance somewhere that promotes this gradual transformation of social norms, by way of taking people within its sphere influence, through its concealed methods and organisations. It is the alliance of the evil.
However the vanquishers were not the armies and the Pharaoh but the Prophet Moses (as) and his followers, who were driven out of their land, and who were oppressed and despised because they were in the minority.
Ultimately, it is a fallacy and misconception when some put forward various excuses to the good saying, "but these are the beliefs, moral values and the life-style maintained by the majority". Therefore, we must keep in mind that adhering to the path the majority follow is not necessarily the safest way, since, as also stressed in the verses above, it is nothing but a grand delusion.
As these verses suggest, at the time when Pharaoh almost allowed Moses and his adherents to leave, the leaders tried to change his mind by making up lies and unfounded slanders about Moses to provoke the Pharaoh into oppressing the prophet and his followers. As is evident in this example, the alliance of the evil always focuses its efforts on inciting the evil against the good.
Another method the evil have employed for thousands of years to such an end has been to coax the good into a conflict against their brothers and friends. All civil wars, conflicts and senseless enmities that have come about in history, originated from the all-out efforts of the evil. As a result of the enmity stirred up by the provocation of the evil, fellow citizens, even close friends and brothers, struggled against each other, and tortured and killed one another.
Also, in our day, through publications, speeches, lobbying and diplomacy, such people stealthily manage to bring two countries into a war, or stir up enmity among a people by dividing a nation into factions. This is an evil scheme that turns brother against brother. The purpose is to weaken these countries by civil wars and internal conflict so as to reconcile the structure of the target countries to their own goals and ideologies.
Another method employed by the evil alliance against the good is, as mentioned in previous sections, to portray some of the good as wicked in the eyes of other good people. To this end, they initiate underhanded strategies, ranging from spreading unfounded accusations to outright insults, so as to make the disparaging message "Look! We have unmasked the good; as you see, they are not on the right way." The intention in this case is to prevent the good to come together, and to support and protect the oppressed.
God's Messenger, the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), also said that "To harbour good thoughts (about a brother) is a part of well-conducted worship."3, reminding Muslims to be on guard against the whisperings of Satan which tries to make mischief among the believers.
Consequently, you should keep in mind that, even if the alliance of the evil has provoked a whole city, or even the whole world against the good, God protects and guards the good. No plot of the evil can hurt the good, scare or worry them, unless by the Will of God.
However we should also mention that the evil alliance is in reality based on a rather feeble foundation. Every member has certain stipulations or a price in mind in joining the alliance. If they feel their personal interests are at stake, they lose no time in breaking with the alliance. That is because this alliance is not established on just grounds, but on falsehood. Every individual who does not believe in God and the hereafter, who has no fear for God and does not guard against evil, is afflicted with certain weaknesses, which the leaders of the evil take advantage of in every way they can, and which they use to gain further supporters.
Also, in our day, promises of money, property, fame or status, are sufficient to convince most people to take action against the good. Accordingly, unless he has fear for God, a person who is offered such promises will readily become so cruel as to make up slanderous accusations or tell lies about an innocent and pure person whom he has never met.
We should still remember that, although these people seem to attain their goal in the short term, God definitely renders their striving futile and inflicts indefinable suffering on them both in this world and beyond.
Throughout this book, we mentioned that the evil unite to eradicate religion and believers, and resort to numerous forms of oppression and pressure tactics to this end. The existence of people of faith is the main reason why the evil unite, because a believer is the representative of Islam, God's true religion, and the guarantee of implementation of the moral values of the Qur'an on earth. For the evil, the threat of such a possibility requires the immediate removal of believers. What hinders the evil ones from living by their system of unbelief and of evil morals are the limits set by God and the moral principles prescribed by His religion. It is to remove these hindrances that the disbelievers are so strongly committed to co-operating with one another. Wherever there is prostitution, bribery, imposture, gambling, swindling, cruelty to orphans and the poor, extravagance, lack of love and respect, immorality, there is the evil alliance.
We are living in a period when the alliance of the evil has intensified their efforts, and believers, along with the innocent, poor and weak people, in all corners of the world, have been subjected to more oppression and suffering than ever before. It is essential that believers assess this reality according to the guidance of the Qur'an. According to the Qur'an, turning a blind eye to the ongoing cruelty, not engaging in an ideological struggle against the evil, watching everything silently and remaining inconsiderate towards the ongoing suffering in the world, is great oppression in itself. Keeping silent about the repression and cruelty inflicted on the Muslims and people striving to spread the morals of the Qur'an, makes one a silent member of the cruel alliance, or worse still, a participator in it.
Glancing through newspapers or magazines should suffice to see the rapaciousness of this alliance. For instance, 10-15 years ago, homosexuality was accepted as completely unacceptable and was severely condemned. However, this fact has dramatically changed today, giving way to an actual advocacy of the rights of homosexuals, as far as presenting this perversion as modern and a normal and "personal preference". This outlook is propagated by the popular media and the entertainment world. The public's inculcation into similar immoral trends as perfectly acceptable "preferences", thus laying the groundwork for their further diffusion throughout society, is merely a consequence of the evil plans orchestrated by the alliance of the evil.
In this time, when gambling, prostitution, and murder evoke little reaction, it is essential that people wake-up to reality. This is a time when the good, who are already deprived of their essential rights and freedoms, are oppressed and unjustly treated, whereas swindlers, murderers and tyrants have the freedom to do what they want. If innocent and defenceless people are murdered all around the world, merely because they have faith in God and because they say they are Muslims, and again, if those who call themselves "Muslim" can remain ambivalent to all this suffering, and dares to refer to it with a smile on his face, then this is the work of the alliance of the evil. Restoring peace and securing welfare, happiness, justice, tolerance, love and respect in the world is only possible through recognition and adherence to the values of the Qur'an. It is the believers who are the living examples of this good character, and it will be the alliance of the good that will ensure the prevalance of the values of the Qur'an; this is the definite promise of God.

In addition to being an Iconoclast and unrepentant Geek, Katherine Lampe is a sometime musician, DJ, and author of the Paranormal Caitlin Ross series, which details the adventures of a witch in rural Colorado and beyond. She studied at the University of Michigan with Ken Mikolowski, and at Naropa University with Allen Ginsberg and William S. Burroughs. Her fiction has won the Detroit News Gold Key for short story and the Boulder Daily camera award for horror, and she is a book reviewer for Witches and Pagans magazine. The daughter of an English teacher and a self-professed heretic masquerading as a Presbyterian minister, she is interested in the individual’s relationship with the divine. Her work explores the interaction of the supernatural and the mundane in the lives of real people. Katherine loves Celtic music and Delta Blues, Indian food, and single malt whisky, and she’s a fantastic cook.
When Caitlin Ross books her band at the new pub in town, the rest of the group is thrilled. She regrets it the second she sets foot inside. An expensive remodel can’t hide the owner’s rudeness or the vile atmosphere. When no one else notices, she wonders if she’s crazy—until a ghost’s appearance at the end of the second set forces her to confront a secret she’s been keeping for years. Caitlin’s a Witch, with the power to perceive things others can’t. An unbearable choice drove her to trade magic for a mundane life, and she wants nothing to do with the unseen world.
As she struggles to maintain a normal life, Caitlin discovers the ghost isn’t the only problem at the pub. The site is the center of local legends and mysterious disappearances. Investigating further, Caitlin uncovers secrets, lies, and a web of dark magic set to strangle the town she’s learned to call home. She can prevent chaos from ripping friends and families apart only if she chooses magic over her own safety and makes a bargain she’s been running from for years. The power is hers to claim. The price: an unthinkable sacrifice.
Autumn brings a new music festival to Gordarosa, Colorado, and Caitlin Ross’s band is playing! Hoping to get through the event with a minimum of arguing over set lists and placement, Caitlin soon discovers more trials await her than the usual hassles of the music business. On the first night, she stumbles across the body of one of the festival’s promoters. What seems a natural death at first glance proves murder when Caitlin detects the residue of magic around the corpse. With no authority to believe her, it falls to Caitlin, the only witch in town, to trace the spell to its source and bring the perpetrator to justice.
The task appears straightforward, but murder is only the festival’s first calamity, and it’s not alone in having magical origins. A fairy amulet has unleashed the forces of chaos, and the resulting fights and riots put a hitch in Caitlin’s investigation. When she discovers the amulet belonged to the original victim, she suspects she’s found the motive for the crime. If she can find the amulet first, she can set a trap to reveal the murderer. To do so, however, she must wield a power unlike anything she’s ever dreamt of. The cost is her sanity, and possibly her life.
After a longed-for pregnancy ends in heartbreak, Caitlin Ross plummets into grief and despair she believes can never heal. Worse, her husband and partner, Timber MacDuff, pulls away instead of offering her the solace she craves. When he leaves to attend to a magical problem he claims only he can remedy, the betrayal shatters Caitlin’s last hope of saving a marriage she assumes her shortcomings have destroyed. In Timber’s absence, however, Caitlin discovers her husband has been lured away by a ruse: An old foe has resurfaced hungry for revenge, and Timber is their target. Desperate to prevent another tragedy, Caitlin tracks Timber to a remote cabin outside Boulder, Colorado, where she finds him trapped in the wasteland of his own mind. To rescue him, Caitlin must marshal all her gifts and all her cunning. Only then can they join forces to end their enemy’s power once and for all. The price of failure is not only death, but losing both their souls.
In a town where every third person claims psychic powers, Caitlin Ross is a rarity: a genuine Witch. Though she hides her abilities from all but a few, Caitlin’s magic goes hand in hand with a compassionate heart, and she can seldom resist a plea for help. When a friend requests her aid banishing a Shadow Creature raised in an ill-advised spell, Caitlin promises to do whatever she can. And she means to keep her promise no matter the personal cost, even after her friend runs off, leaving Caitlin holding the bag.
Born in Scotland, Timber MacDuff grew up in America, where he apprenticed with a Native healer. Now ready to strike out on his own, he must complete a final test: locate a shaman on a dark path and remedy his horrific mistake. Timber’s quest leads him straight to Caitlin’s front door, and after a disastrous first meeting, they realize their goals are the same. Their best chance of success lies in working together.
With the Shadow Creature endangering innocents, neither Caitlin nor Timber has any intention of addressing their growing attraction. But Fate joined them for a reason. For a soul’s salvation, two stubborn spirits must surrender to love, changing their futures for eternity.
Caitlin Ross grew up in Detroit, but it never felt like home. With a mother who despises her and a pair of hypercritical sisters, she has reason enough to keep her distance. Memories of her year in a mental institution only firm her resolve never to go back. But Caitlin’s mother is dying. If she stays away now, Caitlin will lose her last chance of reconciliation. More important, she’ll never know why she never fit into her family, or why her mother spurned her from birth.
Family matters take a back seat once Caitlin arrives in the Motor City and runs into her former psychiatrist. He needs help with a problem patient; seeing herself in the girl, Caitlin reluctantly agrees. Her inquiry leads her to the realm of Faerie, where a plot is brewing to change the shape of the mortal world through a process with the potential to destroy the Universe. Caitlin and her troubled teen ally can stop it, but doing so will force Caitlin to confront devastating knowledge about her own origins. Now she must choose between personal safety and the fate of worlds.
Over a difficult winter, Caitlin Ross has led a simple life preparing for the birth of her first child. Now spring and her due date are imminent, and she’s about to find out that for a witch married to a shaman, life never stays simple for long. When she witnesses a chance encounter between her husband and Gordarosa’s new dance teacher, Caitlin discovers they once were lovers. Timber swears he wants nothing to do with his old flame. But the dance teacher has magic of her own, and she’ll stop at nothing to get Timber back.
When a local girl with a crush on Timber is murdered, the sheriff arrests Caitlin’s husband for the crime. Caitlin suspects her rival of framing Timber out of revenge, and sets out to clear his name. In her quest, she uncovers a motive far deeper and more dangerous that simple retribution. To bring Timber home, Caitlin must sacrifice her very being, and make an alliance with a Power as old as Love itself.
A writer acquires a new pet and finds himself at the center of a struggle between rival crime lords...A harper plays a song to call down a curse and pays a devastating price...A wisewoman helps a fool become a king and learns why some stories capture the imagination while others are never told. In these seven tales of enchantment, explore a mythic place where battles end in a different kind of scar, where the rewards are not measured in gld or silver and where, as the wisewoman says, "The dragons we face are in the mind..."

Steve Hope, from Guardian Water Treatment, explains the importance of air conditioning and ventilation maintenance in the fight against health risking Indoor Air Quality (IAQ).
I’m sure you’ve all read the headlines. Not a day goes by without yet another frightening statistic relating to air pollution, how bad it is and the effect it could have on our health.
With the majority of people residing in the biggest cities, many of us risk our own wellbeing by where we live and work. When we step off the street, however, we should be entering a sanctuary of hygienic air that facilitates a happy and productive day, right?
The reality is often not quite so positive, with poorly maintained air handling and conditioning equipment meaning air is not properly filtered, pollutants are finding their way in, and bacteria is being given a place to thrive.
In the first instance, it’s essential that appropriate air handling equipment is chosen for a building and that this is reviewed as layout changes or more people join a company. Often, we see an air conditioning scheme that is based on the historic design of an office, with no adjustments made when desks move, stud walls are added or additional members of staff are employed. What may have been fit for purpose initially, no longer provides an effective solution. Every time a building changes, so should its air conditioning and ventilation.
Once installed (or changed), as with all HVAC equipment, maintenance is essential. For example, there is a mad panic for air conditioning to be serviced once the weather warms up, but this is usually too little, too late and by this point, ac engineers are very busy, so building owners may be left with faulty equipment when they need it most – particularly at a time when the basic ventilation technique of ‘opening windows’ may not be advised if pollution levels continue to remain at dangerous levels.
A planned approach to maintenance is essential, based on individual product and its usage. While manufacturer’s instructions must of course be the bench mark, ideally, a maintenance programme should be tailored to the buildings – every environment is different and will put different strains on plant.
Part of this ‘fit for purpose’ maintenance comes from monitoring. By continually reviewing air quality and how equipment is working, small problems can be caught before they become big ones, with root causes addressed, rather than a make do and mend approach which could see knee jerk reactions such as ‘turning the ventilation up’, rather than understanding why the ventilation isn’t working sufficiently when it should be.
Important factors such as temperature and humidity levels, and pollutants; including carbon monoxide, dust, fungus, bacteria and pathogens; can be monitored on a regular basis to ensure the system is working efficiently.
As well as controlling air quality, IAQ monitoring helps buildings to comply with Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations. Regulation 7 (1) requires the employer prevent exposure and where this is not practicable, ensure that any exposure is adequately controlled. Without monitoring, employers are in the dark as to what substances their staff come into contact with.
If building occupants are complaining about air quality, then testing and assessment should be carried out to determine the source of the problem and address it. Carbon dioxide (CO2) testing is often performed during the early stages if an IAQ investigation - high levels are an indicator that there is not enough ‘fresh’ air being circulated. Without the removal of ‘spent’ air, odours and other contaminants can build-up.
HVAC equipment should be routinely inspected and associated ductwork cleaned, with factors such as airflow, temperature, humidity and pressure differentials tested in the different areas of a building.
Apart from potentially having a negative effect on IAQ, a blind and unplanned approach to HVAC equipment will also lead to increased energy bills and maintenance costs. If equipment isn’t working properly because filters haven’t been cleaned, for example, it will strain harder to meet its required output, therefore using more power. Leaving plant to operate in this way will eventually lead to a shorter lifespan and breakdowns, costing more in the long run where replacements and out of service maintenance call outs are required. As the old adage goes ‘you have to speculate to accumulate’ – this is always true when it comes to the effective running of building services equipment.
This speculation shouldn’t just be viewed as a step to cutting mechanical costs, either. Statistics have proved that poor IAQ impacts productivity, leaving staff finding it hard to concentrate. Where health implications are severe, days off work may also ensue. Taking a short term view of air handling systems and their importance is therefore potentially costly on a number of levels.
Contaminants may originate from inside and outside of a building, potentially containing airborne chemicals. What comes from outside should be stopped by air handling equipment, which is why keeping filters in good working order is so important.
If a work place produces excessive amounts of potential irritants than a building’s ventilation systems should be adjusted to suit. It’s important that flow rates are kept in check – if more air is removed from the building than is supplied, negative pressure can build-up, causing unconditioned air to flow in through gaps. Boilers, water heaters and other combustion sources must all be properly ventilated.
Staff education is also key – air ventilation grilles can get blocked because people perceive them as ‘draughty’, they must also be trained to use thermostats properly. Ideally, each area should have zoned temperature control so individuals can feel comfortable in their space.
With the cost of poor IAQ potentially a high one, effecting staff health and productivity, and the efficient running of associated plant, cutting corners is a false economy that no business can afford. Let’s make sure that once we’re inside, at least, the air we breathe is safe.
Excellent article that explains very well the importance of cleaning and maintaining Air Conditioning systems to ensure maximum IAQ and reduce/eliminate SBS (Sick Building Syndrome) sometimes know as BRI (Building Related Illness). A regular cleaning and maintenance routine will also prevent premature equipment failure and reduce running costs significantly. Selecting the appropriate cleaning product is also important to ensure effective cleaning without harm to the equipment and minimal environmental impact.

I wanted to use a hot glue gun to glue my buttons, so I waited for a quiet moment when Annabelle was at a settling in session with her new childminder. I know some people let little ones use glue guns, but I’m not that brave, especially after seeing my poor friend’s burnt finger sustained when using a glue gun!
I decided to start simple, with a rainbow coloured ‘A’ monogram for Annabelle’s room. I played arround in MS Word until I found a suitable font and size then cut out the letter and traced it faintly onto the canvas. I am yet to solve the ‘pencil line’ issue (some of the pencil lines could still be seen when finished) so I rubbed out the marks between the buttons this time. I have tried other techniques since, but some lines can still be seen. Maybe I need to use dots instead of a solid line? Gives me an excuse to make more button pictures and find out!
I sorted my buttons into our sorting tray (dipping platter!!) and started arranging them onto the canvas. Once I was happy with the rough arrangement, I got on with the the fun bit – glueing!
That looks fantastic! Any idea where your hubby got all the buttons? I can only find tiny packs at ridiculous prices locally.
Thank you 🙂 I got a lot of buttons from my local charity shop – they do packs of mixed buttons from clothes that they couldn’t sell for about 50p and sets of buttons for about 30p.

Hate to sound like a broken record but this is the second time I've won money with Blingo.com for doing absolutely nothing. Last time it was $50, this time it was only $5 but it was money nonetheless that I didn't have to work for! Gotta love it!
But the other great thing which is the reason I've won yet again is that Blingo.com actually rewards you for referring people to their search engine and when these folks use Blingo.com and happen to win, so do you for referring them. So the last two times I've won has been because of the people I referred. And best of all it's all free and it using a search engine we all love and use anyway. So why use Google.com and have no chance of earning any money and prizes when you can be using Blingo.com, win money and still get the great search results you expect from Google. It's a no brainer to me folks.
So join in people! Visit Blingo.com now! You can read my Blingo.com review here.

According to the Met office, it’s the driest start to Summer since records began; Britain received average rainfall of 47mm from the beginning of June until the middle of July.
That’s twelve times more rain in six-and-a-half weeks than Al Kufrah, in Libya, receives in an entire year. There they grow delicious peaches, dates and apricots, swelled by water from underground springs which is used with judicious ingenuity by the local residents. They probably even use it for irrigating their local racecourse.
At Ica, in Peru, they receive a comparative downpour of 2.29mm per year – less than 5% of the amount we’ve received so far this Summer. We know that people have been living there for thousands of years because the air is so dry that their bodies don’t decompose, creating a community of mummified corpses including, apparently, a 4ft penguin (which demonstrates that there must have been plenty of water once).
And these aren’t even the driest places on Earth. That award goes to the dry valleys of Antartica – although admittedly there aren’t too many people who choose to live there and if there are any racecourses, their race programmes aren’t published in The Racing Post.
When the weather gets hot in Britain, people get hot under the collar. News that United Utilities are planning to conserve between 50 and 100 million litres of water per day, by imposing a hosepipe ban in the north-west of England, has not been received particularly well. Especially by those that have noticed that the company is already losing 453 million litres of water per day through leakage in its pipeline.
Members of the public have been encouraged to spy on their neighbours and report them if they see anyone using a hosepipe – for which a £1,000 penalty could be issued. So it is no surprise that some people have watched the sprinklers being turned on at their local racecourse and pointed an accusing finger.
The effective use of water resources has long been a priority for racecourses, even when the weather isn’t as fine as it has been this Summer. Irrigation is vital, not just to ensure that the turf remains healthy, but also to provide a safe surface for horses. The Environment Agency recognises that equine welfare is important too, which is why racecourses are granted exemption from the hosepipe bans.
At Cartmel, where the selection this Saturday is Volcanic in the William Hill Cumbria Crystal Cup, the ground-staff team have been working strenuously to ensure that the ground is safe and that water is used appropriately.
The racecourse has a licence to extract water from the River Eea, as long as flow rates stay above a level specified by the Environment Agency. And not only does Head Groundsman Gary Sharp monitor the flow rate of the river every day, he also manages his resources so that the track can be irrigated from the river when the flow rate is high, or transfer to the course’s own store of water, held in a reservoir, when the river level drops. Happily it’s been raining at Cartmel on Friday.
I’ll be visiting on Saturday when the forecast is dry again. With all this fine weather, I’m hoping that Gary may have produced some fine peaches, dates and apricots – as well as providing a great racing surface.

There is so much I would love to record on this blog – sadly, there is so little time to do so. Keeping up with the pictures themselves is a struggle. The 23 week picture is a little off because it was done with a camera phone since we were out of town.
Heck, all of them are a little off since I insist on playing with the brightness and colors. But they are getting done – dying plants and all!
I’m nearing the end of 25 weeks (time to take another picture again!), and the small amount of time I have left before this baby arrives is starting to set in! Only about 15 more weeks, and everything left to do.

If your energy bills are soaring, give us a call at (352) 254-8054 to learn more about how installing a radiant barrier in Astor Florida can help.
If yours is like many American households, over half of your monthly energy consumption is related to heating or cooling your home. A percentage of your climate-controlled air escapes because of inadequate attic insulation. The result is a home that is never quite comfortable even when your HVAC system is straining. Intellishield's Astor Radiant Barrier is a lightweight, durable insulation sheeting for your attic. It’s metallic polyester material blocks 97 percent of the sun’s heat, which results in a home that is cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
During those hot summer months, your attic can reach 140 degrees Fahrenheit. This extreme heat makes it difficult to use the space for storage, let alone a more functional space, such as an office or an extra bedroom. By installing a radiant barrier in Astor, you can reclaim this space as valuable square footage. Elite Power Pro's LLC installs this insulating sheeting, which effectively serves to keep your attic significantly cooler during summer months. When you need affordable, sustainable insulation for your Astor attic, give us a call at (352) 254-8054 for a quote.
Adding insulation, such as the Intellishield Radiant Barrier to your attic insulates your home and lowers monthly heating and cooling bills. Since Intellishield is a product backed with a limited lifetime warranty, you can expect those cost savings to accumulate through the years. With a professional Intellishield Radiant Barrier installation, your HVAC system won’t have to work as hard to keep your home comfortable. You’ll require less frequent HVAC service calls and a longer lasting heating and cooling system. For more than 3 years, Elite Power Pro's LLC has been installing energy-efficient products that save homeowners money. When you’re ready to slash your monthly energy bills and HVAC service and maintenance fees, call Elite Power Pro's LLC at (352) 254-8054 to learn more about our Astor attic insulation products and services.

At some point in 2013, Operation Juniper Shield became the official nickname used for both the overarching campaign plan against the Al Qaeda network and other terrorist organizations in North and West Africa and operational activities in support of that campaign plan. Operation Juniper Shield had started in late 2012 or early 2013 as simply a term for the operational side, while the campaign plan continued to be referred to as Operation Enduring Freedom – Trans Sahara (OEF-TS). While it was reported in January 2013 that OEF-TS had been renamed Operation Juniper Shield, this does not appear to have been the case initially. The operations were regularly referenced together, including using the joined acronym OEF-TS/OJS. However, the OEF-TS did appear to formally end and the nickname was generally dropped. The assigned special operations task force was also renamed Joint Special Operations Task Force – Juniper Shield. However, as late as February 2014, one could still find references to both operations.
Operation Enduring Freedom Trans Sahara (OEF-TS) is the US Government's third priority counterterrorism effort and supports the Trans Sahara Counterterrorism Partnership mission by forming relationships of peace, security, and cooperation among all Trans Sahara Nations. OEF-TS activities foster collaboration and communication among participating countries. Furthermore, OEF-TS strengthens counterterrorism and border security, promotes democratic governance, reinforces bilateral military ties, and enhances development and institution building. US Africa Command (AFRICOM), through OEF-TS, provides training, equipment, assistance and advice to partner nation armed forces. This increases their capacity and capability to deny safe haven to terrorists and ultimately defeat violent extremist organizations in the region.
OEF-TS is the Department of Defense support to the Trans Sahara Counter Terrorism Partnership (TSCTP) program, which focuses on overall security rather than solely on Counter Terrorism. The partnership comprises the United States and 10 African countries: Algeria, Burkina Faso, Chad, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal and Tunisia. TSCTP is the State-led interagency initiative to assist traditionally moderate Muslim governments and populations in the Trans-Sahara region to combat the spread of extremist ideology and terrorism in the region. The initiative is an integrated, multi-year approach that draws resources and expertise from multiple agencies in the US Government, including the Department of State, the Agency for International Development (USAID), and the Department of Defense.
OEF-TS extends previous efforts to train and equip company-sized partner nation forces to help deter the flow of illicit arms, goods, and people, and to preclude terrorists from establishing sanctuaries. Under the program, training, equipment and specific units are focused on counter terrorism. In addition, U.S. forces provide mentorship focused on leadership and responsibility. Through OEF-TS, AFRICOM trains, equips, assists and advises partner nations through activities including, but not limited to: Military information sharing; communications systems interoperability; joint, combined, and multinational exercises enhancing cooperation; countering extremist ideology; sustaining regional operations; building upon mutual military professionalism and accountability; airlift and logistical support; and ground and aviation training and maintenance support. AFRICOM engages OEF-TS nations and support TSCTP through a variety of activities, such as: Joint Planning Assistance Teams (JPAT); Mobile Training Teams (MTT); Civil-Military Support Elements (CMSE); Military Information Support Teams (MIST); Joint Combined Exchange Training (JCET); Foreign Military Financing, Foreign Military Sales, and International Military Education and Training; Senior Leader Engagement to gain perspective and build regional cooperation; and Counter-Terrorism Train and Equip (CTTE).
As a top priority, increasing multinational partner support for TSCTP to enhance and promote African regional coalitions, such as the African Union (AU) and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). AFRICOM actively engages other countries and organizations and invites them to become a part of OEF-TS.
OEF-TS was initially started as the US military component of the Trans-Sahara Counter Terrorism Initiative (TSCTI). US European Command (EUCOM) executed OEF-TS through a series of military-to-military engagements and exercises designed to strengthen the ability of regional governments to police the large expanses of remote terrain in the Trans-Sahara region.
EUCOM directed Special Operations Command, Europe (SOCEUR) to develop and maintain a flexible, enduring Global War on Terrorism Coalition, as well as regional, operationally-focused partnerships to support specific Global War on Terrorism operations. In addition, SOCEUR was to develop an operational reach that enabled the ability to detect, exploit, deter, seize, defeat, or destroy targets throughout the area of responsibility. SOCEUR will accomplish this through two lines of operation. The first was the unconventional warfare line of operation (the main effort), an indirect approach to achieving the strategic goal by conducting a broad spectrum of military and paramilitary operations of longer duration, predominantly conducted through, with, or by indigenous and/or surrogate forces. The second was the deliberate engagement line of operation, a direct approach to achieving the strategic goal primarily through the time sensitive planning and targeting process to conduct short-duration strikes against terrorist targets or networks, crisis response to humanitarian disasters, or NEOs to protect US citizens and interests.
Key task for the main effort included: Enabling other countries to effectively combat terrorists in their region; improving partner nation capabilities to support Global War on Terrorism-related coalition operations; denying safe havens to terrorists in the EUCOM area of responsibility; and assuring access throughout the area of responsibility for basing and logistics to support operations. The supporting effort also included a number of key tasks, such as: Finding Al-Qaeda and other terrorists, their networks, and potential safe havens; capturing or killing known terrorists in the EUCOM area of responsibility; and neutralizing known terrorist networks operating in the EUCOM area of responsibility.
By arranging operations sequentially beginning with Trans-Sahara Africa as the main effort, SOCEUR would sequence cycles to drive the terrorist threat south and east, away from the continent of Europe, displacing terrorist networks from their indigenous habitat while isolating terrorist operations in the Arabian Gulf Region from expanding westward into the EUCOM area of responsibility.
The elimination of trans-national terrorist organizations and a progressive elimination of conditions conducive to terrorist infrastructure and activities was a major focus. Trans-national terrorists would be forced to coordinate new lines of operation through the denial of existing havens, lines of communication, sources of support, and the pacification of terrorist sympathies within the region exposing themselves to detection and exploitation. This would also help partner nations exercise sovereignty over previously undergoverned spaces with minimal outside support. SOCEUR transferred responsibility for existing safe havens to allies while refocusing on emerging threat regions.
SOCEUR forces would be concentrated by applying pressure on the 5 geographical leverage points over time, which would expand the spheres of influence of US partner nations, enhancing regional sovereignty. This expansion would consequently force terror networks to develop new methods of operation in less contested areas.
The expanding spheres of influence of US regional partners would allow the reduction of the US forces footprint while maintaining US presence and commitment and expanding US influence in the EUCOM area of responsibility. By developing extrinsic partner relationships with regional, intrinsic partners early in this process, EUCOM would be positioned to continue influencing training, advice, and assistance as US special operations forces pursued retreating terror networks through subsequent focus areas.
Some of the governments in the Pan-Sahel region embraced counterterrorism as a means of suppressing legitimate dissent and Islamic groups. Chad's leaders asserted that the trans-national networks of anti-Western Islamic extremists feared by America were not their main problem. Rather, they cited foreign-backed rebels as their main terrorist threat. They believe that Sudan and other countries were supporting a group of about 4,000 anti-government rebels near Chad's eastern border with Darfur.
In 2007, the US created a unified command for Africa, US Africa Command (AFRICOM), splitting responsibility for the continent from EUCOM. As a result, the responsibility for the OEF-TS became the responsibility of AFRICOM. The operation was still conducted in support of the TSCTI, the name of which was also subsequently changed to the Trans-Sahara Counterterrorism Partnership (TSCTP).
AFRICOM subsequently worked on programs that expanded military-to-military cooperation between the US and partner nations by ensuring there was adequate resources available to train, advise, and assist regional units with the hope of promoting better regional cooperation, communications, and intelligence sharing. AFRICOM conducted train and equip missions to build company-level units that were capable of providing sustained border security. Also, AFRICOM facilitated partner national staff information training and mentorship programs, conducted JPAT and MIST trainings, and held JCET events in all 9 OEF-TS countries. To build regional cooperation, an annual regional counterterrorism exercise involved all countries, as well as mentors and observers from European partners. As of May 2010, OEF-TS was building an information sharing portal and standing up regional communications infrastructure to improve connectivity between partner countries.
On 20 April 2012, 3 members of the US Army and 3 civilians were killed in what was reported as a vehicle accident in Mali. The US military members were in Mali as part of an on-going engagement prior to the unrest that occurred in Mali on 21 March 2012. The US Army's Criminal Investigation Command was leading the investigation into the accident, but did not suspect foul play. The 3 soldiers were part of the 91st Civil Affairs Battalion (Airborne), part of the 95th Civil Affairs Brigade (Airborne), and the Intelligence and Security Command. The reason why 3 Moroccan women were also in the car was not identified, but the soldiers were said to be traveling for personal reasons, not official US business.

We worked with local luminary Vanessa Ahern to transform her TypePad website into a WordPress wonder. We selected and customized a premium theme that fit her aesthetic perfectly. The big lift was content migration — TypePad puts up a lot of technical obstacles to migrating images into WordPress. Working closely with the migration experts at TP2WP.com, we were able to move tens of thousands of images and hundreds of blog posts to free Vanessa from the constraints of TypePad.

Origami is the ancient art of folding paper to produce animals, people, or anything else you can imagine. In traditional Japanese origami, the paper is simply folded, not cut or pasted. Paper folding is most beautifully expressed in the forms, such as the crane, that I have above. The crane, a symbol of good fortune and longevity in Japan, it is also the most popular of the animal forms that I have ever done for other people and it is the basic shape for many others.

In gardening, your primary role is nourisher. You analyze and plan for any potential threats that may inhibit the growth in your garden. You consider carefully your climate zone, the locations of planting, the relationship of plants in your bed, and how best to provide the premium environment for growth. Plants need soil nutrition, water, and aeration to grow. There is a way to improve your soil structure and provide the nutrients, adequate water, and porosity - wool pellets.
What are wool pellets and how can you use them as a growing medium?
Wool Pellets are made from 100 % raw wool. Wool is sheared from sheep each spring. The main fleece of the wool is sold to make clothes, but the belly wool and the "tags" (wool from around the back end of the sheep) are used to make pellets. The wool is compressed and formed into pellets.
Wool Pellets are able to hold 20x their weight in water. When added to gardens or potting soil, they help to reduce watering frequency up to 25%. By holding water, they also wick away extra water, protecting your plants from over watering.
As wool soaks in water, it puffs up and expands helping to increase porosity(oxygen) in the soil. This gives space for roots to spread out and grow becoming deeper and stronger, reducing the need for additives like Perlite.
Have you had some of your favorite blooms die while on vacation? Using Wool Pellets in flower pots and houseplant containers eliminates packed down soil while allowing excellent aeration, reducing watering frequency and allowing optimal root spread.
An 8 oz bag will cover about 15 square feet and is enough for at least 6 gallons of soil if used as directed.
Wool Pellets are naturally high in Nitrogen and take 6 months to break down fully. This makes wool pellets the perfect slow release, all natural fertilizer to help your plants grow all year long.
and other MICRO NUTRIENTS in just the right amounts.
The nutrition in wool helps grow, strong, healthy, beautiful plants that need no other fertilizer. Talk about cost savings!
Wool Pellets are all-natural, organic, and chemical free. This environmentally friendly tool is a safe and fully renewable way for you to provide the nutrients your plants need, while keeping them free from chemicals harmful to you and your pets.
Because it is the natural blend of nutrients that breaks down slowly, wool pellets will not burn your plants and lawn like other fertilizers can.
You won’t need to introduce man-made components to aerate, hold water, keep away pests, or provide nutrients to your plants. Wool Pellets make gardening worry free from seed to harvest.
Wool Pellets, by nature, are a repellent to slugs, snails, and weeds. When placed around the base of plants and mixed into the soil. When viewed under a microscope, the wool fibers are barbed (think itchy wool sweater). This is the component that will keep those soft bellied pest away from your plants. No bug wants to climb through a barbed land field to munch on your plants. In problem areas we recommend placing wool pellets in a 6 inch circumference around your plants.
6. Wool Pellets are easy to use!
Mix 1/2 cup pellets with 1 gallon of soil for use in garden and flower beds or container inside and out.
To repel Snails/Slugs: create barricade of pellets around plants. We suggest a 6 inch circumference.
Terra Zest for your garden, flower beds, or anywhere you want to improve your soil and retain moisture. Try planting your tomatoes straight into Terra Zest, you will love the results!
Price is per cubic yard(a yard is about a pickup load), and will cover about 162 sqft 2 inches deep.
How do you use Wool Pellets?
Virtual Assistant, blog manager, email & social media marketing assistant, web development. I enjoy hiking, fresh fruits & veggies, planting flowers, cooking great meals. But I love being a wife and mother the most. When I'm not doing all of those, I love to read and try new things. No matter the forecast, live like it's spring.
Im a small sheep producer in California and I have two or three pickup loads of unusable wool that is infested with wool moths.
I thought I'd find out if you could use this, or know anyone in California that is making wool pellets that can use it.
I hate taking it to the dump, but I need my barn back.
