I've been to Chicago many times, but our September trip was the first time that I have taken a boat tour on Lake Michigan. This trip was actually the first time that I've been to Chicago in a season other than winter. It was nice to see the sights without freezing!
When we visited Navy Pier, we found a kiosk for Shoreline Sightseeing and we took their forty minute Classic Lake Tour.
This wasn't our tour boat, but it was our boat's twin.
It was cold and occasionally rainy, so we sat on the interior of the lower deck, with views out of the back of the boat. There were only a handful of other tourists on our boat, so it was easy to walk around and take pictures.
The tour was quick, but it offered some amazing photo opportunities of the city skyline and Navy Pier. Dan is the photographer in our family and he got some beautiful shots. I love the greens and blues of the lake.
The Classic Lake Tour was a great companion tour to the Architecture River Tour that we took on the previous day. It's a lot of boat, water and information to digest in a single day, but it was ideal to do both tours over the course of a weekend.

When British Prime Minister Theresa May touched down in Riyadh recently to meet with the Saudi crown prince, she thought her uncovered head would inspire Saudi women. The country’s dress code requires that women keep their hair covered in public spaces, but she attended meetings without a headscarf.
Western news media largely heralded May’s move as revolutionary, just as some had portrayed Michelle Obama’s 2015 visit to Saudi Arabia with head uncovered a “bold political statement.” Despite the media’s fascination, these women’s decision to leave the headscarf off is not unprecedented. Former first ladies Hillary Clinton and Laura Bush also chose to forgo wearing a headscarf.
May’s dress choice is not brave or unique. She was not in violation of Saudi law; while female foreigners who choose not to conform to the Saudi dress code risk a confrontation with the Mutawwa, or the Commission of the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice, the dress code is technically unenforceable against them.
And while they did not wear a headscarf, all of these women were careful to dress in loose, fully-modest clothing – hardly a rebuke of Saudi cultural standards.
What was problematic was the timing of comments she made close to the visit about modeling liberation. Prior to her visit, May stated that she would be a role model for oppressed Saudi women, hoping to inspire these women to consider all that “women can achieve” and their ability to hold “significant positions.” Her dress choice was then framed in the context of her statement about empowering “oppressed” Saudi women.
Women in Saudi Arabia face restrictions that many women outside the country cannot even fathom. The country enforces a system of male guardianship that restricts women’s rights to travel or even drive a car. But the specific connection between dress and “oppression” does nothing but perpetuate the false idea that the Muslim headscarf is inherently oppressive.
While some have decried May’s dress choice, her decision to forgo the headscarf does not qualify as religiously or culturally insensitive.
May’s visit was not with religious leaders or at a house of worship. And while Saudi women cover their hair in public, many Muslim women around the world do not, since wearing a headscarf is as much cultural as religious, and not a uniform practice.
Hijab as an Islamic requirement did not start out as a matter of dress. During the Prophet Muhammad’s time, he would receive visitors in his simple one-room home. Because there was only one room, his wives were forced to sit in the room with him, subject to the inquisitive looks by his visitors. To alleviate this constant invasion of his wives’ privacy, God mandated a veil, or curtain, that separated the prophet’s wives from his gawking visitors. The hijab signifies the sanctity of the private space.
Hijab in Islamic tradition also has to do with living life with dignity. It embodies shyness and humility, which one prominent scholar explains as the “essential psychological and moral values of Islam.”
In modern times, hijab interpreted as a strict requirement to keep one’s hair covered in public spaces has varied from culture to culture. As Islam spread, it was adopted in various cultures in ways that were most natural to it. South Asian Muslims, for example, tend to see hijab as a general mandate about modesty rather than a set of strict rules about who can see a woman’s hair.
In all Muslim cultures, however, the hijab has helped emphasize an overall ethic of modesty – even in cultures where women do not always cover their hair, they still wear loose-fitting clothes that cover their entire body.
And in the post-9/11 world, the hijab requirement has become even more ambiguous. With the politicisation of Islam and Muslims, and anti-Muslim sentiment on the rise, many Muslim women risk physical attack just by stepping out in public with a headscarf on. In light of these challenges, some scholars have argued that the requirement does not apply when a woman’s security is at risk.
Many women who continue to wear the headscarf in light of these risks do so not just – or even at all – out of religious conviction, but instead to make a political point. How the Muslim headscarf is interpreted and applied religiously and culturally is complex, not a simple sign of oppression.
May’s statement also sets up a saviour framework that is all too common in Europe’s relationship with its Muslim communities. Numerous European states have legislated against the Muslim headscarf – France being the most notorious among them, but certainly not alone.
Ranging from bans against modest swimsuits, or bikinis, to face veils to headscarves, a common European sentiment includes the idea that Muslim women have to be saved from their religious dress requirements; that religious modesty is inherently oppressive and can never be adopted fully voluntarily.
European bans on religious dress somehow confuse government coercion as facilitating rather than limiting women’s agency, which is reflected in May’s declaration that Muslim women need “saving.” Instead of challenging “archaic” notions about women, her statement casts women as passive.
The reality, though, is that Saudi women have and continue to organise their own activism. This week they staged a protest for the right to drive and against the Saudi system of male guardianship. The protesters filmed themselves walking the streets silently without male companions.
Saudi women don’t need to be inspired about their potential. May would do better to recognise and highlight that potential.

The Urban Shaman goes camping
For those that know me well and follow me on social media I LOVE the forest and being out in nature. Every day I walk with a passion and there is no greater feeling than the earth beneath my feet and connecting to the energies of the universe. I’m no Urban Shaman. However I have to admit that a few years ago I did have a long-standing fear of camping and staying outdoors all night. This irrational fear, which felt perfectly rational at the time related to a long standing allergy to mosquito bites. When I was around 17 I lived on…

Leed's Castle is the very first castle I saw on my trip. It is quite lovely, but I don't know if I agree with it's slogan. It's fully a medieval manor. It has the lake, but no proper moat, no battlements, anything like that. So basically, it's just a giant house. I can't remember it's exact history, but it began as a manor for the Saxons way back when, then moved up through some Tudors, other rich owners, and ended with a Lady Baillie, who renovated it again in the 1800s, made it what you can see today, and then donated it because her descendents didn't have enough money to keep it.
The castle tour itself is okay, but you don't see very many rooms and you can't take any pictures. Turns out businesses and politicians can stay there and run meetings and conferences, so many rooms are private. The grounds are extensive. There are a few flower gardens, a hedge maze, a duck pond, a rare and wild bird exhibit/collection, nice yards, a mini-village and a pavillion where you can have lunch, a small, working white wine vineyard, and a cute man-made underground grotto. There are peacocks roaming all these parts, including an albino one, which you can see below.

May came to Ireland 'to pick fight'- Mary Lou McDonald
Mary Lou McDonald speaking after meeting with Theresa May.
"It is now clear that the British Prime Minister has come here to pick a fight with the Ireland to pick a fight with the European Union." - Mary Lou McDonald
British Prime Minster Theresa May came to the north "to pick a fight" with Ireland and the EU, Sinn Féin leader, Mary Lou McDonald, said today.
The Sinn Féin President met Theresa May in Belfast this morning alongside Sinn Féin deputy leader Michelle O'Neill and Conor Murphy.
The Tory leader is in the north on a two-day visit to discuss Brexit and other issues. She visited the border in Fermanagh yesterday and made a speech in Belfast's Waterfront Hall this morning. She also met with party leaders during her visit.
The visit sparked protests from a range of groups at several locations as republicans, anti-Brexit activists, human rights campaigners, relatives of victims of collusion, legacy campaigners, LGBT activists, Irish language activists and others held vocal demonstrations at Crescent Arts Centre this morning to demand action from Theresa May.
A group of demonstrators from Sinn Féin also joined other campaigners outside the Waterfront Hall while the Tory leader made her speech.
Mary Lou McDonald described Theresa May's visit and speech as "provocative" and said it did nothing to reassure widespread concerns over Brexit.
"We were told that the British Prime Minister was coming two years after Brexit to calm and offer reassurance to people in the north of Ireland and beyond. As it happens her visit has been anything other than reassuring," she said.
"It is now clear that the British Prime Minister has come here to pick a fight with the Ireland to pick a fight with the European Union," she added.
The Sinn Féin leader also said Theresa May's speech "showed scant regard for the Good Friday Agreement, scant regard for the democratic will of people in the north who voted remain and absolute disregard for people's rights and entitlements" and added that it "might have been written by a member of the DUP."
Speaking after meeting with the Tory leader, Deputy McDonald said she offered no reassurance about Brexit and the border.
"We have heard nothing reassuring. We are not naieve to imagine that the British prime minister is in any frame of mind to listen much less to take heed to the needs of this island or the views of people here.
"Right across society, business, farming and community interests, north and south are dismayed at the fact that the British prime minister uses hard Brexiteer rhetoric designed for Brexiteers and the Brexiteers within the DUP.
"We need to reiterate again that Ireland will not be the collateral damage to the Tory Brexit, that there will be no hardening of the border on the island of Ireland and that the Good Friday Agreement is sacrosanct," she added.
Mary Lou McDonald also called on Irish government and the EU need to challenge the British government on its rhetoric and to fulfil the commitments it has already entered into.
"You cannot say there will be no hard border and then propose a course of action that will deliver a hard border. That is a nonsense and the British government need to be called out on it.
"There is a big responsibility on Taoiseach Leo Vardakar and a responsibility on Michel Barnier and our partners in Europe to stand firm.
"The British government need to understand that they can't simply arrive in Ireland and set out a plan that is so destructive to our interests and expect that there won't be a mighty reaction to that,"

Ecological and green thinking are becoming an increasing focus of the way people do things these days. In the previous century it was all about cost effective solutions that made the most money but as people have become more and more enlightened and switched on to the needs of the world, green and sustainable considerations have come increasingly to the fore. But what can be done to be more green? What changes can you make on an individual level? Here are a few simple solutions that you should look to implement so that you can make a difference.
Solar Power
When it was first put forward as a solution solar was seen as very expensive and unreliable. But that was a long time ago and solutions are now both very good and plentiful. Solar power installers Sunshine Coast and surrounding areas are many and skilled and with a bit of research you will be able to find the right solution for your specific needs. Depending on your budget and your short term and long term goals you could opt for something that just heats your hot water, you could look for a solution that stores power for the whole house in a battery or you could even go for the option of feeding electricity back into the grid.
All of the above are viable options. Search online for electrician Kawana or whichever area it is that you live in and you will undoubtedly find a professional who can advise on and tailor a plan to suit your specific needs.
Eco-Bricks
We all know that houses and building are traditionally built with bricks and cement. Nothing much has changed there except for the composition of the actual bricks. The eco-brick is a very simple concept that solves multiple problems at the same time. In short empty plastic bottles are taken and crammed full with litter and single use plastics. Once they are chock-a-block full they are sealed and sent off to be used in the building of houses. They are great insulators, combined with cement and plaster they are very strong and durable and the end result is a cost-effective house, built out of waste materials. In short, instead of sending rubbish to land-fills, it is being hidden and used in plan-sight, above ground. What a win!
Grey Water
As much as single use plastics are a major issue, so too is single use water. Water is becoming an increasingly precious resource and it makes no sense for it to be used once only before heading back out to sea. Grey water is the term given to water that is re-used and there are plenty of companies supply systems that harvest this water easily. Grey water is shower or bath water or washing machine water that is still fine to use on the garden. Drains are plumbed to collect the water in tanks and the water is then pumped onto lawns or gardens or wherever it is needed, thus ensuring that you cut your utility bill, keep your garden looking great and lower the demand on water purification plants. Grey water can also be rerouted into toilet cisterns and used for flushing.

One of the main characteristics of the villages in the south of Peru is the great fervor that they profess for the Catholic religion. In each village, no matter how small, one can find large churches adorned with gold and magnificent paintings that make up part of the history and fervor of each of its inhabitants.
In the city of Arequipa , the highlight is the Santa Catalina Monastery, constructed up to 1580 in honor of Saint Catalina of Siena, in order to shelter the daughters of the noblest families of the city. It was an absolutely cloistered convent until 1970 when the nuns decided to live in the community and leave its cloisters to be visited by tourists.
The Santa Catalina convent is a small citadel constructed of mud and ashlar with magnificent paintings al fresco that occupy a 20 thousand square meter area and is divided into four neighborhoods, trying to emulate the Arequipan urban distribution of the first years of the Colony.
History
During Viceroy’s, Francisco de Toledo’s, visit, he who pacified the indigenous rebellions, the construction of a convent of nuns dedicated exclusively to the cult of the Catholic religion was approved near the center of the city. The construction was carried out quickly and in 1579 it was inaugurated.
The first women that enrolled as novitiates to the convent were of Creole or Mestizo origins or the daughters of the curacas (magistrates) of the most important villages of the Chili River. However, in 1582, a large earthquake destroyed a great part of the monastery. In spite of the town’s petitions, the monastery remained cloistered and the nuns stayed in charge of its reconstruction throughout the years.
Recently, during the Republican era, Spanish nuns enrolled in the convent so that in 1970 the Great Reformation occurs and the nuns give up the cloister and go to live in the community.
Architecture
Ashlar, the characteristic rock of the Arequipan volcanic ground, was used. Its architectural style is based on Spanish influence but done by Indigenous hands. That is why, different from other public colonial constructions, one can find in Santa Catalina a fusion of Spanish and Indigenous elements creating something original.
One important characteristic is the shape of the cell doors. Earthquakes were the cause and origin of the expansion since the families decided to build private cells for the girls enrolled at the convent, which is why a standard was established that was followed for more than 300 years. In order to assure security, the doors thresholds was slightly higher to the level of the floor and its ceiling was considerably lower thus giving more resistance to telluric movements.
Art Gallery
When the decision was made to open the doors of the monastery and the restoration of the frescoes painted on its walls was initiated, a huge collection of religious painting from the indigenous school was found. Approximately 400 pieces were restored and it is currently one of the most important collections of religious paintings in Latin America.
Its historic importance is great due to the fact that one may see in them a great selection of the Cuzco School of painting where both Inca and Spanish elements united to represent how the Indians lived the Catholic religion.
How to get there
The Santa Catalina Monastery is located near the Plaza de Armas by the left lane of the avenue the runs next to the Basilica of Arequipa. The entrance fee is 30 soles and there are tour guides that speak English, German, Italian and Portuguese.

We don’t see a ton of games released in Cydia mostly due to the App Store however, every once in a while, we see a new game in Cydia. Yesterday Circles, a memory game, showed up in Cydia.
Circles is a simple memory game that starts with one circle and continues to add one circle at a time. The object of the game is to tap on the circle that was added. At first, this is simple task but as the levels progress, it gets a little trickier remembering which circles were already there and detecting which circle is new. [Read more…]

The.
Our Homeroom recently had an Olweus lesson in Religion Class. Ms. Grimm assisted Mr. Mueller with the lesson: building a tall structure with spaghetti strands and marshmallows! It was a great lesson in teamwork.
Ms. Grimm begins a 2nd grade art class with a book about making mistakes – Beautiful Oops! by Barney Saltzberg
After reading the book Beautiful Oops by Barney Saltzberg. The students discussed how to turn accidents and mistakes into beautiful and creative works of art. Here the students took scribbles and paint splatters and made abstracts designs, pictures that tell a story, and silly creations.
Duncan in Second grade turned a blue scribble into a lamb swimming across a river! See below-
In Fourth Grade the students study radial symmetry we learned how to create design using radial symmetry. Before we began, we studied the history of Mandalas and how they are represented in different cultures.
In Second Grade we are reviewing the author study of Eric Carl that they learned about in first grade. The students looked at a variety of Eric Carl's artwork and practiced drawing out animals for their collaborative book! The students chose a animal jungle theme! After reading and looking through a variety of Eric Carl books, the students discussed how Eric Carl made the artwork for his books. They discussed collage techniques and different ways to create textures in paint.
Here the students are collaboratively working on creating big painted sheets of paper, they are working on creating different tints and shades of color as well as using materials to create texture in the paint. The students will use these sheets of painted paper for their individual collage.
In Sixth Grade the students are learning about the artist Chuck Close who was widely known for his portrait paintings. The students learned how to do his grid method to map out the right proportions! We discussed how Chuck Close was able to adapt his skills in art when he became paralyzed and how he problem solved through new obstacles.

The list includes114 members of the administration, and 91 "oligarchs", close to President Putin. The excluded fear a loss of prestige in the eyes of the Russians themselves. Putin makes fun of his not being included. Public opinion even more compacted around its supreme leader. Mikhail Fedotov: "It’s as if they randomly chose names form the phone directory".
Moscow (AsiaNews) - The list of "Putin's men" drawn up by the American Ministry of Finance has provoked mixed reactions in Russia: not only of patriotic pride against the eternal Cold War adversary, but also of surprise and almost disappointment among those, who not having been included, fear losing prestige in the eyes of the Russians themselves.
The blacklist was in fact expected, given that it has been a draft law since the Obama administration, and its effect on the sanctions procedures in reality will depend on the relationship between the current Trump and Putin administrations, pending the re-election of the latter next March 18th. One of the effects, moreover, could be precisely its influence on the Russian electoral campaign, in parallel with the many accusations of interference by the Russians in turn in the elections of Western countries.
The list includes 114 members of the administration, and 91 "oligarchs" deemed close to the president, who also ironically expressed his "disappointment" for not being personally included on the black list of "enemies of America". The Russian commentators, however, observe a certain superficiality in the drafting of the list, which appears to be inconsistent with recent developments in Russian politics. In fact, it does not include names like that of Ella Panfilova the president of electoral commission, the members of the Supreme Court, the leaders of the parliamentary fractions and practically all the regional administrators, who expected to be included.
The American report is divided into three parts: executives of the presidential administration, the government with its various components and the "other political exponents", including the Parliamentary Speaker Vjacheslav Volodin and Senate Speaker Valentina Matveenko, and also the leaders services and 19 large state-owned companies. The president of the Central Bank, Elvira Nabudullina, and even the heads of the parties represented in parliament, are not included, except those of the party of the president’s "United Russia" from which Putin has distanced himself to become a leader above the parties. The closest collaborators of the president have been included, such as councilor Venjamin Jakovlev, his representative to the Constitutional Court Mikhail Krotov and the head of the Human Rights Council Mikhail Fedotov. Like the latter, several figures of “liberal” repute have been included, to indicate that ideologies or political sympathies are not of concern, but only personal loyalty to Putin and his actions against international law, such as the Crimean annexation. According to some commentators, in fact, many names have been inserted or forgotten by mistake, revealing a serious approximation in the drafting of the document.
The impression is that the Americans wanted to single out those political and economic representatives who supported Putin’s policies, but were unable to distinguish between those favorable or opposed (in fact almost non-existent), they somewhat haphazardly drew together the list, trying not to be limited to any specific sector. The main effect was a general reaction of solidarity of the excluded towards the included, compacting even more the public opinion around the figure of the supreme leader. After the publication of the list the presidents of three parliamentary committees, financial market (Anatolij Aksakov), tax authorities (Andrej Makarov) and education (Vjacheslav Nikonov), refused to fly to the US to participate in the traditional "National Prayer Breakfast" held in early February with the participation of President Trump together with the leaders of the religions to which they were invited.
Some saw in the publication of the American report an attempted interference in the Russian presidential campaign. The Deputy Chairman of the Senate Defense Commission, Franz Klinzevich, told Kommersant newspaper on January 30 that "The report on the Kremlin is intended to provoke a negative reaction among the population against the Russian leadership, against the president, and to create problems on the eve of the elections ". Boris Titov, the only presidential candidate nominated in the Putin-list, was very pleased with his presence on the list: "I am the only candidate who does not present populist recipes in economics, and now the choice is clear: either support one of the candidates not present on the list and therefore not unpleasant to the West, or use common sense and use new indigenous economic weapons against the sanctions war. The strong are feared, the weak are put on a lead, "said Titov.
The influential head of the Human Rights Committee, Mikhail Fedotov, also issued a statement to Kommersant, stating that " we expected more expertise from the American Ministry of Finance, with a list based on analytical materials and secret information; instead they randomly chose names from the telephone directory... Russia and the US are leading actors in international politics, responsible for the fate of the world and must try to solve problems, not trivialize them ".
The war of sanctions, in short, is likely to turn into a soap opera, waiting for a real showdown, or better still the beginning of a true dialogue between East and West.

KOTA KINABALU - The Chief Minister will get a salary hike of RM7,875 (S$3,045) in an across-the-board increment for the state Cabinet, assistant ministers, Speaker and assemblymen.
The Assembly unanimously approved the pay hike, which will see the Chief Minister's salary go up to RM23,625. His deputy will be paid RM19,725, up from RM13,150.
State ministers and the Speaker will get RM16,335 (from RM10,890), assistant ministers and Deputy Speaker RM12,705 (from RM8,470) and assemblyman RM7,950 (from RM5,300).
Political secretaries will be paid RM5,445 from the current RM3,360.
The increments will be effective on Jan 1.
Assistant Minister in the Chief Minister's Department Datuk Edward Yong, who tabled the Bill, said the increments were necessary due to the higher costs of living.
The salary increase and the state Budget 2015 were among seven Bills that were passed by the assembly yesterday.
The other Bills were the Forests (Constitution of Forest Reserves and Amendment) Enactment 2014, Electronic Government Activities Enactment (2014), Constitution of the State of Sabah (Amendment) 2014, Rubber Industry Board (Amendment) Enactment 2014, and Pensions (Yang di-Pertua Negri Sabah) (Amendment) Enactment 2014.
Earlier, PKR rep Christina Liew was ordered to leave the State Assembly when she refused to apologise for her outburst on Monday that the government was lying to smallholders.
After being told to do so by Deputy Speaker Datuk Johnny Mositun, Liew retorted that she would only apologise if the House allowed her to explain what she had said.
Liew came under fire from backbenchers who demanded she apologise to the state government.
Barisan Nasional assemblymen counter attacked by accusing Liew of cheating smallholders through her law firm.
A court decision earlier this year found her and two others liable for inducing smallholders to breach a joint-venture agreement with a state-owned company.
Liew is appealing the decision against her and two others to pay over RM500mil in damages to Borneo Samudera Sdn Bhd (BSSB), a subsidiary of state-owned Sawit Kinabalu Bhd, for unlawfully inducing the Bahagak Smallholders Scheme participants to breach their Joint Venture Agreement (JVA) with BSSB.
At the start of the session yesterday, Chief Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman demanded that Liew apologised.

You might have poor credit, but you can still buy a car. One possibility is a car lot that doesn’t perform credit checks, commonly known in Nebraska as a buy here pay here, tote the note, or your job is your credit car lot. If you would like improve your credit, however, this type of financing isn’t the way to go. These dealerships don’t partner with the credit reporting agencies, which means your repaying of this loan won’t translate into an increased credit score.
The good news is that only some bad credit car dealers in Nebraska offer BHPH financing. A good number of traditional dealerships can get people with bad credit approved at more affordable rates and with lesser down payments, and assist them in restoring their credit simultaneously. Dealerships like these typically perform credit checks, but if your credit is already pretty weak, the impact isn’t as much of a concern. Below you will find cars and trucks on lots in Nebraska, most of which can be financed even with non-ideal credit. Contact the dealership to ask about your financing options.

The fuel pump plays a very important role in the car as it is the transport manager of fuel to the engine from the fuel tank. Therefore if it malfunctions, a situation where the engine either gets too much or very little fuel due to too much or very little pressure in the fuel line travelling from the tank to the engine. This will have negative effects on the performance of the car
In a normal working condition fuel in the form of liquid gasoline needs to move from the tank to the engine where it is burned and power is generated to move the car. There are types of fuel pump we want to look at. Let’s start with the mechanical
- The Mechanical Fuel Pump
Before now, all fuel pumps were always mechanical. This meant that they worked through a system that operated on the rotation of the engine itself. A mechanical fuel pump has the dynamics of a diaphragm. It uses the pumping action of that diaphragm design to create low pressure thus moving fuel from the gas tank to the carburettor. This are located on a mount outside the fuel tank itself and are less likely to o malfunction like the electronic fuel pumps. The most common problems associated with the mechanical fuel pumps is if the diaphragm inside the pump brakes. This disturbs the pressure balance of the pump. The second problem of mechanical fuel pump is high heat generated from within the engine and the outside air that changes the fuel to vapor. This poses a challenge to the pump as it was designed to use only liquid.
- The Electronic Fuel Pump
The mechanical fuel pumping system saved its purpose sufficiently during the era of carburetor-based fuel systems until car manufacturers moved past the use of carburetors and invented more advanced fuel injection system. Though the fuel pump is still needed in the advanced injection system, the mechanical pump could not generate the level of fuel pressure need by with fuel injection engines. Thus, a new system which supplies fuel under high pressure (40 to 60 psi) was developed. This is now what is known as an electronic fuel pump.
Nowadays, most cars use this which is located within the fuel tank itself supply fuel to the engine. However, there are far more inherent issues associated with electronic fuel pumps. This system works by spraying mist of fuel inside the engine’s chambers and is operated using a computer control system rather than the former mechanical one. Thus issues with the pump itself as well as the computer used to operate it can arise and lead to vehicle and fuel pump problem.
Let’s now look at the symptoms of faulty fuel pumps
- HARD STARTING: ignored signs that would be listed below could lead to a hard starting. The engine will rev, but it will not fire. This Means that’s there is no fuel reaching the engine upon ignition.
- THE ENGINE STAMMERS DURING HIGH SPEED
This is often the most common prompt sign of fuel pump crisis. This happens when a vehicle is driven at a consistent high speed, while traveling down the road, the car will be ok for about 10 miles and then begin to jerk around, or sputter, for a mile or two before returning to normal.
- LOSE OF ACCELERATING POWER
This seems so like the other symptom. However, rather having the stammering engine experience while driving, vehicles will experience it upon acceleration from a stop. Meaning the vehicle will initially move before making noises and jerking as if it wants to cease, but will continue on its acceleration smoothly.
- ABRUPT LOSS OF POWER UNDER STRESS
This can happen when climbing a hill or when moving a load. If your car begins to lose when discharging this duties power, then your fuel pump is sick
SEE ALSO:HOW TO TEST FUEL PUMP RELAY
Trackbacks
[…] Most pump producers do not recommend the use of a sealer on the pump mounting during installation but rather recommend the use of the gasket or O-ring that is provided. The obvious reason for this is that if too much sealer is applied, some of it may end up inside the pump or block the pump passageways. […]

She supports students working in a variety of mediums from graphite, charcoal, pastel, coloured pencil, oils, watercolour and acrylics. She teaches 'sight' techniques to help students 'draw what they see' and 'free up' from gridding and tracing. Her methods combine classical training with a contemporary feel, tailoring her mentoring to individual artists' styles and covering use of proportion, shape, colour, values and modelling.
Hannah's aim is to teach everybody, from complete beginners to more established artists, fundamentally tooling students up with the essentials in art, so they can transcribe the world around them more easily. Her main aim is to gear students up so that they can complete sensitive and honest portraits, freehand. You can see some of Hannah's work here.

Antique Shirvan
Prayer rug,
Shirvan Region, Azerbaijan. 2nd half 19th century. 96 x 132 cm, 3'2" x
4'4".
published Ralph
Kaffel's Caucasian Prayer rugs
Caucasian weavers were able to take the simplest elements, such as adjacent
stripes, and turn them into a variety of interesting and intricate designs.
Striped rugs were woven mostly in Shirvan, Daghestan, Kuba, Genje and
Karabagh. Sometimes only a small number of colours were employed, as in the
red, white and blue diagonals of this piece; at other times an extensive
palette would be used vertical stripes were rarely used in Shirvan weavings,
being more typical of Karabagh and Daghestan.
This rug is quite similar to one illustrated in Schurrmann "Caucasian Rugs"
(plate 74), although with a totally different border. In his commentary on
that rug, Schurmann points to the influence of the Genje districts and notes
the care that has been taken to run the diagonal stripes in the opposite
direction on the right side above the prayer gable - an arrangement also
seen in this piece. An example virtual identical to the present rug,
assigned to Kuba, was published as 38 in Herrmann "Seltene Orientteppiche".

posted in Mom Stories
A few weeks ago, I posted what I described as a “calm and serene” series of photographs of women breastfeeding. Erin White’s Women in the Wild photographic collection, showing women breastfeeding in nature was, to me, undeniably beautiful. “A romance with motherhood,” I called them.
What did I see that others did not? On our BabyCenter Facebook page, the mood veered from adulation to offended — to the point where one reader commented, “This isn’t art, it’s pornographic.”
The first photo featured in the post. Click here to see the original post and photos in full.
What about these photos struck people as indecent? Because some women raged about it:
“In regards to ’embracing postnatal scars…’ My stretch marks are not for display and I sure as hell don’t want to see yours! There’s nothing attractive about it no matter what these women in denial say. I liked it better when women were more modest and didn’t feel the need to strip down for “art.” Go put some clothes on for goodness sake!”
“Whatever happened to modesty and self respect? The kids will see the pictures when older and I doubt they will be proud of their exposed mothers!”
“I don’t get it… I just can’t see ever wanting staged photos like these or feeling the need to post them online.”
Not all the comments were so fiercely opposed. Many voiced support and admiration for the women. But, the negative comments were so vicious, I asked the photographer, Erin White, to share her perspective on them. She did and also provided some behind-the-scenes photos revealing the atmosphere during the shoot.
Me: I was interested in your response to comments on Facebook regarding the first post – probably a lot of the reason you are doing these shoots to begin with: to counter negative stereotypes of breastfeeding.
Erin: The project has received an overwhelming response from the public. There is negativity, but there is also such an outpouring of emotion from women that were moved by the images.
Me: The negative comments seemed to focus on the idea that breastfeeding should be hidden away for the dignity of the mother and child.
Erin: As women we are conditioned from an early age to believe that our bodies and their functions are inherently shameful. We grow up in fear of our ‘flaws’, constantly comparing our own bodies to those of celebrities. Our culture tells us that the female form is only beautiful if it meets very specific, and often unattainable standards of beauty. New motherhood and breastfeeding often have the effect of magnifying our insecurities. Pregnancy and breastfeeding change the female physique, our society tells us that these changes are not just undesirable, but that they are gross. We are encouraged to breastfeed because it is widely accepted as being healthiest for baby, but told to make sure that we cover up, because, “nobody wants to see that.”
This creates a lot of uncertainty for new mothers, who may already be struggling with other aspects of breastfeeding, or having trouble accepting their postpartum bodies.
Me: Readers focused on the nudity and that women don’t breastfeed in the middle of a forest. Do you feel they missed the point of the shoot?
Erin: The images are art though, they are meant to be impactful and directly effect the veiwer through my vision. Helping people to see the beauty in the breastfeeding relationship, the beauty in the natural bodies of women. I also believe showing women what other new mothers look like is comforting. We should not allow ourselves to be hidden or shamed for our changing bodies. I hope that these photos showcase the beauty of breastfeeding and motherhood, but my deeper wish is that they help to change a culture of shame.

How do you feel about the Women in the Wild project?

The time here is in the reign of king Herod. But that can be confusing
as there are many king Herods mentioned in the Bible. This was Herod the
Great known for his building projects such as the expansion of the
second temple and his palace, but also known for being a mad man who
murdered his own family and a great many rabbis. Josephus, the historian
writes a great deal of him and his atrocities.
Only men of the Tribe of Levi, and in particular of
the descendants of Aaron, the brother of Moses, were allowed to be
priests according to the Law of Moses. They would take turns serving as priests. Though there was also a "high priest"
who served for life. Only priests were allowed in the temple. And only
the "high priest" could enter a special room in the temple - the Most
Holy Place - and that only once a year. In this case Zechariah was in
the Holy Place which contained the Table of Showbread, the Golden Lampstand and the Altar of Incense.
The altar of incense stood right in front of the purple curtain which
separated the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place. Thus it was most
appropriate for the angel to appear there.
Zechariah was to become the father of John the
Baptist. His wife Elizabeth was cousin to Mary who became mother to
Jesus. To say that they were upright obeying the commandments and
regulations of the Law was not to say there were sinless. Rather they
provided sacrifices according to the Law with regards to their sin. "Blameless" is often misconstrued to mean "sinless". But in fact "There is not a righteous man on earth who does what is right and never sins." Ecc 7:20 This includes priests. For b 5:1-4 Jesus is the exception. For being sinless, "Unlike the other high priests, he does not
need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and
then for the sins of the people." Heb 7:27 While no one is perfect but God alone, those in authority are to be characterized by blamelessness. For example it says, "An elder must be blameless" Titus 1:6 which
is not to say that an elder is to be reckoned or assume to be
blameless, but that they must actually be blameless to qualify for such a
position.
It is significant that the first testimony Luke gives
is that of a couple with a good reputation, being blameless, and the man
being a priest. However some may have looked down on them as if
accursed of God in that Elizabeth was barren. Though in fact it is not
wise to judge one's spiritual state based purely upon one's
circumstances. (Consider Job) In particular this event parallels the
birth of the prophet Samuel whose mother had been barren, who prayed in
the temple for a son and who later gave him over to serve priestly
duties. And likewise it parallels the birth of Isaac born to a woman old
and barren in accordance with the promise that God gave to her husband
Abraham.
It was not surprising that Zechariah was gripped with
fear under the circumstances. For the appearance of an angel is not
always a good thing. Death often accompanied the appearance of an angel,
and God often killed those who didn't follow His rules especially with
regards to religious duties. Two of Aaron's own sons who offered
unauthorized sacrifice died tragically, fire came out from the presence
of the Lord and consumed them. The presence of God was so feared that
when the high priest entered the Most Holy Place he had a rope tied
around him and wore bells in case Lord was displeased and killed him and
those outside could drag him out without entering the curtain.
"Do not be afraid" -
The angel of the Lord starts with this command. Yes, it is a command
given in the imperative, and not a mere suggestion. We find such
commands to dispel fear throughout the Bible . "Have
I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid,
nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9
"your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to give him the name John."
Apparently, much as in the case of Abraham, primary on his list of
prayer requests was for a son. Though one wonders whether this was a
past request or an ongoing request seeing as Zechariah later express
doubt due to their age. But it is interesting to note that God still
considers requests despite such doubt. "John" means "Jehovah is a gracious giver". He was to be the foreshadowing of the gospel of grace.
"he will be great in the sight of the Lord." Indeed Jesus said, "I tell you, among those born of women there is no one greater than John." Though he was speaking of men up to that time, for he continued, "yet the one who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he." Lk 7:28 People often obsess about "greatness". Jesus disciples disputed who was greatest among them. (Lk 22:24) What engenders greatness in the kingdom of God? In Mt 18:4 Jesus relates it with humility. In Luke 9:48 he speaks of the least being the greatest, and in Luke 22:26 as
one who serves. Thus when we examine the life and ministry of John the
Baptist we have before us a precedent of humility and service to God
unmatched in previous generations. And yet not comparable to those who
would become Christians since Acts 2 to this day. Let us keep in mind
that John the Baptist was not born again. He was not born of God. He was
not a son of God. Such a status didn't exist apart from Jesus until the
coming of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2. For as it was written, "Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified." John 7:39 Thus John the Baptist did not have the Holy Spirit in the sense Christians do today. Though he was given the Holy Spirit as prophets of old had - for empowerment in ministry.
"He is never to take wine or other fermented drink" - Reminds us of the birth of Sampson in Judges 13 where the angel there likewise told his father, "You
will conceive and give birth to a son. Now then, drink no wine or other
fermented drink and do not eat anything unclean, because the boy will
be a Nazirite of God from birth until the day of his death." Jud 13:7
Likewise it may be implied that the Lord intended John to be a
Nazirite. Nazirites are mentioned in the Law of Moses which says, ." Num 6:2-6
"he will be filled with the Holy Spirit even from birth." Typical of the prophets to be full of the Holy Spirit. The prophet Micah said, "I
am full of power by the Spirit of the LORD, And of justice and might,
To declare to Jacob his transgression And to Israel his sin." Mic 3:8
And John would have a similar mission. But his mission was also to
identify the Messiah, and this he did even prior to being born as will
become evident later on. And thus God filled him from birth.
These verses call into question how much of our destiny
is in our control. However rather than a fatalistic interpretation,
another possibility is that God foresaw the kind of man John would turn
out to be and chose him on that basis. The apostle Paul was also chosen
from birth. Gal 1:15 But Paul also testifies, "I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that he considered me faithful, appointing me to his service" 1Tim 2:12 Thus what is implied is that God chose him from birth in light of the kind of response he would have to the gospel.

CLEVELAND -- Witnessing the gruesome nature of teammate Gordon Hayward's leg injury during the first quarter of Tuesday's season opener, Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving immediately thought back to Paul George's injury during a 2014 Team USA scrimmage.
."
As with Irving, Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James' mind went to similar injuries.
."
The Celtics were clearly shellshocked in the immediate aftermath of Hayward's injury, which required Boston's forward to have his leg stabilized before he was stretchered off the court.
Boston players huddled in front of their bench before play resumed, and Irving buried his head in the chests of teammates Marcus Smart and Jayson Tatum. Rookie Semi Ojeleye led Celtics players in a prayer for Hayward, and players struggled to refocus on basketball.
Boston, up three at the time of Hayward's injury, soon fell behind by 18. The Celtics rallied all the way back and led late in the fourth quarter before James and Kevin Love made big plays to lift Cleveland to a 102-99 triumph at Quicken Loans Arena.
"At the end of the day, there's still a game to be played. As s---ty as that sounds, but still a game to be played," Irving said. "We understand that; we're professionals. When one of our brothers goes down, we just picked the rest of our guys up and understand that we send our well-wishes to him and his family, and we'll see him on the plane. We'll do what's needed for him to get through the process of getting back healthy."
As Irving added, "We know G is going to be fighting to get back on the court."
Celtics coach Brad Stevens, who previously coached Hayward at Butler University, was clearly stung by the forward's injury. It was Stevens who played a key role in enticing Hayward to sign a four-year, $128 million contract with Boston this summer.
."
Stevens knew his team was reeling after the injury but said it's tough to turn the page on something like that.
"I don't have any magic words for that," Stevens said. "I mean, you're all hurting for him. I'm not going to try to take the human element out of it."
Even the Cavaliers were affected by the injury. Hayward's ankle turned at a cringeworthy angle, directly in front of the Cleveland bench, and Cavaliers players reacted immediately to the sight.
"Even though he was from the opposing team, we're still a fraternity and we're still brothers," Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue said. "You never want to see anyone get injured or go down like that. I'm not sure of the severity of the injury, but I wish him well. He's been a great player in this league, an All-Star and a great model citizen as far as the NBA is concerned. I just wish him well and hope he gets well."
The Celtics didn't truly look like they were re-engaged until the third quarter, when they rallied.
"It's hard," Boston center Al Horford said. "It's hard to see one of your teammates go down in that way. I felt like it took us a little bit to get back going again. But we tried to stay together out there."
Jaylen Brown offered his take.
"It's tough," said the Celtics forward. "Gordon is a leader of our team, and going into the season, we leaned on him a lot. Now we just have to come together even more and try to be a better team until he comes back. But it's tough to see something like that. I hope he recovers as best as he can."

--------------
Vecima's organic development of gigabit internet access platforms, together with Concurrent's industry-leading IPTV delivery platforms unlock numerous synergistic opportunities in the evolving IP video space. The two companies together are also aligned to serve a global footprint including the Americas, Europe and Asia.
“As global IP traffic surges and broadband speeds accelerate, the rise in video-based services like on-demand IP video and streaming is increasing exponentially,” said Sumit Kumar, President and CEO of Vecima. “Concurrent's video delivery system dovetails perfectly with Vecima's suite of leading edge cable platforms to provide the cable industry with a compelling IP video and broadband access ecosystem. Adding Concurrent's broad portfolio of products to Vecima's industry-leading Broadband Access Platforms results in a powerful combination that allows for delivery of an end-to-end, massively scalable video and data solution, both to existing and new customers.”
Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, Concurrent also has offices in Japan, along with sales and support staff across Europe. The combined operations will significantly enhance Vecima's reach in the global market.
Concurrent's Delivery and Storage Business employs approximately 100 people and generated revenues of US$27.6M for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017.
Vecima plans to continue operating the business under the Concurrent brand. While it will retain an independent operating model, Vecima expects to leverage the complementary nature of the two companies' product lines to provide immediate benefits to customers, address large commercial opportunities, and build a stronger, global player in its markets.
“We are very excited to enter into this agreement and believe that Concurrent will be an excellent addition to the Vecima brand,” said Derek Elder, President and CEO of Concurrent.
Mr. Kumar added, “Together we intend to create a leading technology business with a larger, more diversified product portfolio, a superior growth model, a broader market profile, and a proven management and operating team.”
The proposed transaction is subject to various terms and conditions, including approval by Concurrent shareholders, and is anticipated to close by the end of calendar year 2017. Vecima expects that the business will generate in excess of US$5.5 million annualized Adjusted EBITDA shortly after closing and capturing synergies, including the removal of Concurrent's public company costs.

One of my friends has just been told the bad news in no uncertain terms. His brutally honest, grim-faced astrologer has informed him that he is 'Manglik'. And hence he would have to marry an earthen pot.
I have nothing against earthen pots – they're cute, unargumentative, and eco-friendly – but I would draw the line at marrying one. No insurance benefits, and the sex would be below par. Not to mention the horrifying prospect of the house being filled with the pitter-patter--plunkety-plonk-oops-crash of little anthropomorphic pots resembling something from those badly animated advertisements seen on Doordarshan during the eighties.
But I digress. The reason for this downright bizarre practice is, of course, to prevent your bride(or groom)-to-be from meeting with a grisly end a few months into the marriage. By marrying the pot, your 'curse' is transferred to the innocent container, which then frees your beloved to live long, prosper, and nag you about your clothes. The pot is then destroyed, ending the curse. Neat.
On closer examination of the practice, I find that our friends in the astrological community have been rather unimaginative in their process design. The things you can marry to redeem yourself from the dreaded 'Manglik' curse seem mostly limited to earthen pots, banana trees and clay idols. Boring.
My question is – why not expand the scope a little and include a number of things that are better suited to bearing the curse of imminent death? Just a quick glance around will provide numerous examples of things that are probably going to die quickly anway, so what's the harm in going a little 'Manglik' on their sorry asses? A sampling :
- An XBOX 360 console
Everybody knows that Microsoft's crappy hardware quality will ensure a 'Red Ring of Death' just a few months after purchase. Perfect for absorbing any Manglik negative energy.
- Sania Mirza's chances at the next grand slam
If lack of survival is what you're looking for, then Ms.Mirza is unlikely to let you down.
- A Mayfly
The poor creatures only live for a few hours anyway. And their main purpose is reproduction, so you can even squeeze in a quick one before saying goodbye. Caution – might die even before you complete the ceremony, so make it quick and snappy. Register marriages recommended as opposed to those interminably long circuses we sometimes call weddings.
- The acting careers of Tushar Kapoor, Dino Morea or Suniel Shetty
While we admit that their careers are dying a tad slower than is ideally suited for this purpose, there's nothing wrong in helping their demise along with a little Manglik magic.
- An answer to any question posed on TV by Arnab Goswami
A very safe bet – since Arnab takes great care to kill all responses quickly and efficiently, by cutting them off after “Well, you see, Arnab, it's a ma . . .”
- A social revolution started on Twitter or Facebook
Nothing is more short-lived than attempts by thousands of people on Twitter and Facebook to rid the world of its evils by starting hashtags and saying interesting things about their underwear. Most of these live for about 24 hours, or until someone links to a funny video where Hitler gets upset.
Of course. I realize that many of these things are fairly hard to actually 'marry' – but Astrologers are studs at coming up with ideas to solve such problems. If they can cure chronic gall bladder problems by tying coloured ropes around stone idols hundreds of miles away from the gall bladder in question, this can't be too hard. They'll figure it out.
Hehehehe! Nice one.
Not sure about Suniel Shetty. I always felt his expression on camera were animated by a team of Indian special effects professionals. But since the Indian animation industry is still lagging, he might just be able to show some emotion.
Fantastico. Keep em coming. Clearly this blog can't qualify for Manglik-mitigation.
oh marry A pot..as in one numbers wonly?
Damn. Here I was dreaming of acres of ganja. This is what ganja does to your brains.
I wish Jeyam Ravi was included in the Acting career list..
An XBOX 360.. lol..
You missed a point.. No Dowry :D
aww I just got my Xbox360 replaced (disc drive failure) a week back, should have married it off to some manglik friend before doing so =(
LOL! Brilliant post! :D
inspired post.thang u
@Balu - You can lways marry of the next one ;)
Everyone else - thanks folks.
Very funny tank u.
It is Tusshar Kapoor, and when did he even have a career? Gosh, that's like my aunt's mush!
Rofl!
Putting you on my blogroll..
Why suddenly all posting here and not on Bosey?

Overview of Big Sky Properties
Big Sky was purchased in the 1990’s as several tracts of vacant land that totaled about 900 acres. During the ensuing 10 years 60 rural lots (ranging in size from 4 to 10 acres) were created at the north and eastern portion of the property. Only one of these remains unsold today.
The Property today totals 463 contiguous acres. Approximately 36 acres are situated on the north side of US 380 on both sides of Jackson Road have 3,100 LF and two intersections on the new four- lane-divided highway. US 380, now nearing completion, is being widened into a four lane-divided highway with medians and turn lanes.
428 acres of contiguous land is targeted for residential development that has access on Jackson Road and US 380 at the Big Valley entry. The tract has expansive views to the west and overlooks a series of small lakes.
Big Sky is located 10.5 miles west of I-35 and is equidistant between Denton and Decatur and about 30 miles due north of downtown Fort Worth. To the south are the towns of Justin, Ponder and Fort Worth along Hwy 156. Alliance Airport is about 18 miles to the south. It is not in the ETJ of any city and the frontage is approved for alcohol sales.
The Property is for sale in whole or part.

Hope odysseys 48t crank is better than the old one. I hated mine.Im also a bit confused to the the hub range from odyssey/gsport. Vandero, Anti-gram and Rolloway? What are the differences and why so many?
I don't understand the 48 spline Odyssey cranks, or the new Twisted pedals, unless it's to hit a price point.Thunderbolts and Grandstands are too nice to consider anything else.

As I walked around the network of small overgrown lakes, I could already see the next mist net. The 12ft long horizontal net, with mesh too fine for birds to see, happily stood poised against the dying afternoon sun. But like the ones before it, it was disappointingly devoid of birds. Ignoring the slow start I trudged on, wellington boots melodically slapping the muddy bank. I had to concentrate to navigate through my obstacle course; ducking overhanging branches, dodging inch-long bamboo thorns. My shirt, still saturated from the midday heat, clung to me in increasingly awkward positions. A brilliant flash of gold startled me, pulling me out of my reverie. It was a big, intriguing bird that had exploded from cover and was now heading in the direction of my next net. My heart lightened immediately and I continued on.
A royal flycatcher (Onychorhynchus spp.)
I was working in a remote part of the Peruvian Amazon as a research assistant for the Manu Bird project. Run by the University of British Colombia, it is a long-term study of the ecological factors that maintain the range limits of tropical birds across altitudinal gradients. Right in that moment, I was attempting to catch another ‘interesting’ bird for the metabolics component of the project.
As I approached the next net I realised it was moving – the giveaway sign that something had been caught without yet being able to determine what it was, hidden by the surrounding undergrowth. I leapt towards it, plunging into the lake, I called in the team: a ‘WOOP!’ tearing from my throat as I sloshed forwards. Tangled from beak to claw in the mist net, I scooped up the suspended bird in the ringer’s grip that has by now become second nature to me; a kind of cradle created by your hand that goes over the back of the bird and controls the neck and wings. Slowly, I teased the net away first from the feet, then the wings, and lastly releasing its beak – which was ferociously trying to drum a hole through my finger.
The cream coloured woodpecker (Celeus flavus)
My colleague appeared panting and wide-eyed at my side – having heard my call he had come running and he then stood there, tentatively balancing on submerged vegetation, grinning from ear to ear. With the bird safely out of the net, we both stared at the culmination of the day’s work. The cream-coloured woodpecker was peering back at us – arguably more yellow than cream, but mysteriously, to my nose smelling of custard. With a massive grin of my own, I allowed myself the briefest of moments to regain composure, before carefully placing the bird into a material bag in which it would remain calm. We had done it.
I was working in the impressive Manu National Park. With over 1,000 bird species – more than a tenth of the globe’s population, it is one of the most avian rich places in the world. This is in no small part due to the mountainous topography that the rainforest is formed on. Peaks can reach 3,400m, giving rise to a mosaic of habitats ideal for promoting diversity; from the stunted twisted forests smothered in moss near the summit, to the vast lowland varzea jungle – flooding seasonally from surrounding rivers. But what determines the altitude that the inhabitants of this area can survive at? Why can some species be found across an entire gradient, whilst others are confined to a narrow band? The Manu Bird Project is trying to shed light on these questions.
The project has been running for 4 years now, and utilises the impressive backdrop of the Manu national park to its advantage: 3 field sites each at a different altitude allow the team to compare hundreds of birds along the entire gradient. From a combination of historic ranges, and the current distribution of appropriate habitat and resource types, we know a species ‘fundamental niche’ – where it should be occurring. During the season, the field crew collect 3 main cohorts of data, which when combined help to explain the birds ‘realised niche’ – where they are actually occurring, and what role they actually play in the ecosystem. We look to find out where the birds live, both in which habitat and at what altitude, in contrast to their fundamental niche. Then we need to find out why. If they are not present in areas they could inhabit – why not? Are competition or predation levels too high? Do the costs of maintaining body temperature at a higher altitude outweigh the benefits of living there?
My job was catching birds for the metabolic experiment, consisting of strong, fit adult birds that would not become stressed easily. I would target specific species that the study would benefit most from; ideal birds were those that had only been measured a slim few times, or not at all before. For example, the cream-coloured woodpecker was an ideal bird for the experiment: the species usually stays high in the canopy, not coming into contact with our mist nets, so it hadn’t been caught before. This was the really exciting bit of my role in the research team – getting completely new data for a long-term project. The bird would then enter a chamber where the pressure and temperature levels would be controlled, replicating the conditions the birds would experience at different altitudes. By measuring the rate of oxygen consumption you can begin to understand what conditions the birds can tolerate and if they could thrive at different altitudes, or if it would be too much work.
If a lowland species uses more oxygen while in environmental conditions replicating that of a higher altitude when compared to those it usually inhabits, then this could show that the bird has to use more energy and undergoes higher levels of stress trying to deal with higher altitude. This cost could explain its altitudinal range, it could be that the bird simply cannot cope as well at higher altitudes and therefore is restricted to the lowlands.
This is what it was about for me, that pure excitement of the unknown.
Using an arsenal of measuring equipment we also take readings to describe the birds physical characteristics and work out their age and sex. These basic factors are essential in most scientific studies. Back in the UK, I take the availability of this kind of knowledge for granted – we have comprehensive literature on all birds you might encounter when working in the UK, and all in a few books. However, out in the diverse and comparatively understudied tropics, we had to work a lot of the characteristics out for ourselves. Although the challenge was enjoyable we had to revert to the basics and had many discussions before we had all agreed. The level of feather moult, skull growth and feather shape were indicative of the birds age. In sexually monomorphic species, where plumage of both male and females was the same, it was the presence of sexual characteristics that we would use to tell them apart, such as the development of a brood patch in females.
There was just one field platform for the researchers to share
Working at an isolated Amazonian field site was inspiring, but tough going at times. For me it was not so much the crippling heat and humidity, mouldy food, soggy feet and rice for 3 meals a day; I was already aware and mentally prepared for that. What got to me was the relentless barrage of insects. I knew they would be bad, they were just infinitely worse than what I was expecting. The worst, without doubt were the ants – you couldn’t sit down in the forest – wherever you were they would find you. Those smaller than a pinhead could make your whole back numb when you were bitten by just one. The kneejerk reaction of brushing them away was even a risk – half the culprits would pierce your fingers with their spiky armoured carapaces, and others would coat your fingers in chemicals – smelling so rancid they made our Amazonian weathered armpits seem pleasantly perfumed.
The problematic saddleback tamarin
There was one other critter that I had a slight problem with. I was bitten by a monkey. Not just any monkey either, a tiny, fluffy saddleback tamarin – the cute innocent looking primates we would see on a daily basis around camp. In hot pursuit of a hummingbird, this one got itself entirely tangled in one of my mist nests. Whilst trying to prevent a tamarin-induced hummingbird death, I got a fang through the thumb. This led to a quick get away from the field site to seek preventative rabies treatment – just in case. But despite the angrier animals, the less intrusive wildlife made it all worthwhile.
One of the most exciting aspects of the work was discovering completely new ecological information as a by-product of the research. This is what it was about for me, that pure excitement of the unknown. Of waking up with the sun still in hiding and completely exhausted from the night-hike a few hours before, but you realise the joy of your work. What am I going to see today? Will anybody else have seen it, or even heard of it? Sure, the answer to the latter was yes most of the time. But often we discovered information completely new to science, and that brought a sense of affirmation for us.
My favourite example was finding a species completely out of its known range. We caught olive-spotted hummingbirds on our river island, a staggering 1000km south of where you would expect to find them. This may seem like a ridiculously large distance to have not been known before, but if we must consider that the bird in question is only 4 inches long, with at least 2 extremely similar species to get confused with and some of the most inhospitable and inaccessible places in Peru across this new 1000km distance. Is this just the natural range of the bird, previously overlooked? Is the bird actually doing pretty well for itself and undergoing natural range expansion, or was the bird forced south, away from the threats of deforestation or climate change? The truth is we just don’t know yet.
The olive-spotted hummingbird was not a one off. Sometimes we pushed ourselves so hard that days off would be harder going than our daily duties. On one such day we didn’t feel like we’d had our fill of excitement so continued adventuring through the heat of the day. With sweat dribbling from every inch of skin and so much sun cream applied that you could taste it, we had reached our limit. But typically it was then that we hit the jackpot. 9 Brazilian teal, described as an ‘accidental migrant’ to Peru had visited us far from their usual range in Bolivia. It is likely that the preceding dry season, particularly lacking in water, left the birds travelling much further than usual. This is why working in the tropics is so inspiring – at every turn there is something new. How much is still to be discovered?

Fumio Yamamoto 山本文緒
Fumio Yamamoto (1962–) originally wanted to become a manga writer, but began writing fiction on the side while working in an office job after graduating from college. She made her literary debut in 1987 when her short story Puremiamu puru no hibi (Days at the Premium Pool) received an honorable mention in the Cobalt Paperback Novel Prize competition, which has served as a launching pad for many writers of fiction for young girls. Turning pro as a writer, she produced numerous titles in this category over the next five years before shifting to fiction for the general reader in 1992. She received the Yoshikawa Eiji Prize for New Writers in 1999 for Ren'ai chudoku (Loveholic), and the Naoki Prize in 2000 for her story collection Puranaria (Planaria). After a lengthy break from publishing she returned with the collection Akapera (A Cappella) in 2008. She is known for the sharp eye with which she observes the subtlest psychological ripples of women making their way in today's world. Among her many other superb works is Fasuto puraioriti (First Priority, 2000).

Earlier this year, two interstate friends, Jasmine from Sweetaholic Beauty, and Nikita from NJT Reviews, contacted me and asked me to be involved in bringing their successful blogging event held in Melbourne, Bloggers United, to Perth and, of course, I jumped at the opportunity. Along with Jasmine and Nikita, Angie from Peplum and Prosecco and Samantha from That Little Beauty Blog, I have spent the two or so months working like a mad woman to plan the event; scouting locations, contacting brands and doing everything else involved in organising a successful event.
We hosted the event on Saturday, August 15, and, if I can say so myself, it well really well. So much of my blood, sweat and, if I'm honest, tears went into the organisation of the day and I couldn't be happier with how it went.
For all the gossip on the day, including a bunch of photos, check keep reading!
The event was held in the function room Gramercy Bar and Kitchen (Shop 10, 777 Hay Street) and I couldn't fault it. Sure, the space was probably a little tight but the service was impeccable and the staff were amazing; no request was too difficult.
PHOTO CREDIT: Bloggers United
On arrival, this is what every guest saw. Every person was greeted with a mocktail (virgin Shirley Temple, anyone?) and a name tag - because we're all guilty of only knowing someone by their Instagram handle.
PHOTO CREDIT: Bloggers United
Throughout the venue we had beautiful flower arrangements, including an individual rose for every guest, that were kindly gifted to us from Fresh Flowers. A Perth based sweet treat business, Sweetly Baked Perth, also jumped on board and created stunning biscuits and cupcakes for our guests. Yep, there was enough for everyone! Everything was gone by the time I went to get mine (crazy, I know) but I guess that means they were absolutely delicious.

As well as having a selection of brand representatives attend the event, we also had Yasmeen from Essence of Jasmine, a small handmade bath and body store from Perth, in our company. Not only did Yasmeen set up a table where we could see just some of her beautiful products in action (I made one hell of a shopping list, don't you worry), she also gifted every guest a beautiful candle which was beyond generous. After meeting Yasmeen in real life, I'm not surprised. She was a genuinely lovely person who was so kind and supportive of what we were doing; a beautiful person inside and out. Thank you for everything, Yasmeen.

Trying to get all seven (yes, seven) goodie bags on every place at the tables was a bit like playing an epic game of tetris but, hey, they all had a home in the end. Take a look at all of that natural light too. It was amazing for photos!
PHOTO CREDIT: Bloggers United
A combination of presentations by amazing brands and games hosted by the Bloggers United team made up the day. We were lucky enough to have representatives from Elucent Skincare, Enbacci, L'Oreal Professional Haircare, Weleda, John Plunkett and, lsat but not least, LUSH in our presence and they all gave us such great insight into their products. Not only that, they were all such kind and genuine people.
Above you can see photos of the Perth Blogger United Representatives with Lauren from Enbacci and Laura from L'Oreal.

Most, but not all, of the amazing girls who attended the event. Every single guest was lovely and it was honestly so amazing to put faces to soo many names!

The whole Bloggers United team, minus Nikita who couldn't make it.
And that's it. That was the first ever Bloggers United event to be held in Perth! There are a few things that I would've done better but, all in all, I think it was a great day.
To everyone who came to the event, thank you so much. It was a pleasure to meet you all and I really hope you had a great time.

My personal attack on the NBA campaign “There can Only be One” in my vision of basketball one player is just a one piece of the equation and he needs his supporting cast to win. Even Jesus Christ needed 12 guys behind him to make it work.

Julie was another speaker at the Women's Conference I attended and what a testimony she has! Before she spoke, the song, Cry Out To Jesus, was played. You can listen to that HERE! Her words will touch you deeply...and a reminder that we truly are better together!
*****
Good Morning Ladies! Before I start I need to address two very important things. First, I’m not remotely qualified to be in front of you today and secondly the fact that I am in front of you is a miracle in itself so bear with me!
Before I get too far in my story let’s take a moment and talk about the song that was just played, “Cry out to Jesus”.
I want everyone to stand up and while I ask a few questions, and please remember that we are all here for a reason and that this is a safe place to just be free and let it all go!!
Ok let’s start; remember please only sit once I’ve read them all IF none of these questions apply to you personally in some way!
Who has lost someone the love long before it was there time?
Who has a marriage that is struggling to just hang on?
Who has burdens and chains?
Who is widow that suffers from being alone?
Who has felt like the world is falling on you?
Who has struggled with the chains of addiction?
Who knows children or has even been one who had no safe place or is without a home?
I'm okay with telling you that 6 of them apply to me all and that’s why I am here!
Thank you ladies please look around before you sit down!!
We are definitely in the right place this weekend and it should be a wonderful feeling to know that we aren’t alone and it’s more important for us to love each other and encourage each other, not talk about each other and rip each other apart!! Let’s remember that most importantly in all those situations that I just read and I’m sure there are many more situations that I didn’t mention…But as the song stated… Remember there is GRACE and Forgiveness, Mercy and HEALING that will meet you wherever you are!!! Just like the song said “Cry out to Jesus”
On July 17th 2012 my life changed forever, and I will never be the same person I was prior to that day... some of that is good and some has been not so good! Each and every day since that day has been a struggle to even function with daily responsibilities of life. I have had many days where staying in bed and just wallowing in my sorrow would be a far better option than trying to pull myself together and get through the day, Especially when the days are left with fear, anxiety and helplessness.
My husband and I didn’t have a perfect marriage, matter a fact just before my world was forever changed the “D” word was starting to be used! We had a blended family and regardless of how much you love each other that presented its own problems on its own! We both worked full time and were busy all the time and the reality was our marriage was suffering greatly and other problems where creeping in!
Now let me stop for a second a stress something that is very important to know if you don’t know this already, just because you are a Christian and love the lord DOES NOT MEAN YOU WILL HAVE A GREAT MARRIAGE!!! Which I truly thought that was how marriage would be, you would still have disagreements here and there but that’s normal! I grew up in church and I never saw “unhappy married people there” well now I know why! Now I know that Christian married couples argue on the way to church and once they open the car door they instantly put their Sunday face and Sunday marriage on and it is in full swing! Life is great and you wouldn’t dream of saying otherwise, I mean what would people say? Well I can answer that question they would say, oh honey I know just what you are going through or they could relate to some degree!! Looking back I wished I had been more honest instead of letting pride and shame take over!
My husband and I married in 2005 and in 2008 had our own daughter together! As I mentioned earlier we had our share of problems but we always tried to fix them, but by 2012 things were piling up and our marriage was truly being neglected. We had some very unfortunate things taken place and wounds were getting deeper. I had given up and felt like this would never get better, the love we had was slowly diminishing and bitterness and resentment were getting stronger! We loved each other but we weren’t in love, we were a players on a different team and there were no winners! We were married and this was all it would be the rest of my life unless we did the “D” word!! My poor mother heard me cry and cry so many times about what to do I was stuck and miserable!! But I didn’t want to really give up!!
Sadly on July 17, 2012 God did the unthinkable. My husband was having some speech problems for about a week, and if you knew my husband he was very intelligent and for him to not remember certain words and not be able to say them meant we had a problem. From that we went to him dragging his right leg every so often. He went to the hospital where they did some testing and ruled out a stroke! They decided to do a MRI and they found a mass on his brain!! I’ll never forget that phone call from the hospital, simply asking me to get to the hospital they needed to speak to me. I was so afraid that I kept asking them tell me what’s wrong tell me what’s wrong, then I was told they found a mass on his brain. Now just so we all know I wanted to be there when my husband went to the emergency room that night but he refused to allow me go and just keep saying he was fine and that I should get some sleep because it was late at night and my step children where all here for the summer so he went alone! If all my kids where here including my step kids they would tell you that when I hung that phone up after talking to the doctor I was hysterical and couldn’t stop shaking to even get dressed. Talk about FEAR!! My parents were called and off we went to the hospital at 1:30 in the morning.
Surgery to remove this mass was 2 days later and that was extremely scary but he made it! Then on to pathology results………Stage 4 brain cancer better known as Glioblastoma!!!! Never heard of it and didn’t want to hear of it again!! I wanted to go home, let him recovery, get through therapy and let that be it!!! Like in my mind a high five to God was doable, thanks for waking us up and showing us that life is precious and so is MARRIAGE!!!!! Oh but that wasn’t God’s plan!!! We went through the radiation and chemo together. I researched and studied this cancer and we lived each day after that as if it was our last together. My husband was given 15 months to live!
God gave my husband and I 18 months before this ugly tumor showed up again! We did what the doctors suggested after seeing some from John’s Hopkins and here locally! Second surgery was schedule and we spent our 1st Valentine’s Day in the hospital recovering! The risk were higher with the second surgery so the chances of him speaking to me was slim due to the location of his tumor which was on his speech and motor skill side! Each time they go in with this type of tumor they aren’t able to get all of it because it grows little tentacles around other areas in the brain which is why they use the radiation to kill what’s left. After this surgery chemo was available but not radiation! So we were off to Christiana hospital for a trial drug that my husband didn’t want to do! So we prayed for healing, he was anointed with oil!! Every appointment and MRI we were praying for healing!! Less than 6 months later my husband was back to work and doing his best at a career he loved dearly, but he would come home throughout the day and tell me different things that were happening, I was concerned and always called the doctor and we would do another MRI or if one was coming up so we would wait. In September we went back to Johns Hopkins and I was told everything looked great it’s just scar tissue pressing against things in the brain maybe we should consider taking some of it out if it continues to get worse! I never believed what they said for a minute but they were good doctors so I just accepted it! By November I was on the phone again demanding help that something was wrong!! MRI was done and I’ll never forget hearing the doctor’s voice on my cell phone, the tumor was back and they wanted to see him the next day to prepare him for surgery! My husband and I cried in my den floor, I called my parents and we prayed!! My husband was not as willing to get the surgery this time he was tired of fighting! He finally made the decision to try one more time, with huge risks this time that gripped me with unbelievable fear! The tumor had grown under that scar tissue since Sept and they are very aggressive tumors.
I just knew he would never walk again and might not know who I am! Our surgeon was so concerned that she spoke with us one more time before they rolled him away to operating room and I cried like a baby to her!! That Surgeon was prayed for a lot! My husband made it through that surgery and was home for the best Christmas ever!! In January he had a repeat MRI done and that phone call was the end for me, the tumor was back and had doubled its size from just 4 weeks ago!! Through our news of hearing I had less than 6 weeks before my husband would be gone, the Facebook page #Salvasstrong was created! I wanted to make as many memories for our family as possible. I had no idea what was going to happen or even how we would survive with both of us not working. So we prayed.
Throughout many of our prayers together privately my husband would reminded me that sometimes God says NO!! He would be so strong in front of others but would be so weak when we were alone! Seeing my husband scared truly broke my heart! He also would say to me and has also said in the past when asked why him, his response would be why not me? I really struggled with that. Why him? Why me? Why my marriage? Why do my kids have to suffer watching their Dad be sick and have a death sentence? Why am I in this funeral home preplanning his arrangements? What happened to OUR plan? I mean didn’t God get the memo!
My prayers were more intense with God, and I would really tell him my true feelings sometimes I found myself not praying because if God really cared He would heal my marriage, He would heal my husband and let me have the life that I wanted back! I mean my husband and I had a plan and he was going to retire from the state police 6 months prior to his diagnosis and he was going to work in D.C and I was going back to school! I mean for the first time we were going to be able to have some extra money!! Why would God want to do this to us? What did I do? Why am I being punished? Well I don’t have the answers for all those questions, I wish I did! But what I do know is this, the miracles that we prayed for came in a different ways then what we wanted them to! We always want the nice ones that are easy to see!
God’s chose to take my husband home with him on August the 18th 2015! I miss him every single day, but I know he is healed and much happier! I know this because I prayed for a sign a few months ago and I got it that very night, and although it hurt it was exactly what I needed to know! In my dream my husband reached out for my hand and held it, he looked at me and told me he loved me (pause) but that he wouldn’t come back even if he could! WOW, that’s how wonderful it is in heaven!! That doesn’t change the fact that I miss him and wish I could go pick him up take him to get a his favorite donut and a cherry coke and take him back home!! But knowing he is ok and happy gave me peace and comfort. Now I’ve been blessed to have had more little things like that happen when I have had really bad days! I thank God each time cause I need them.
About 2 months ago when I was trying to really get my story together I was coming up with nothing, I spoke to Kim one morning at the gym and said I can’t do this I have nothing to share!! As always she encouraged me and reassured me that I got this! I had some classes that afternoon so while I was getting ready the house was empty and my mind was flooded with the majority of what I’ve already said here today. It was so intense that I had to go find my notebook and a pen so I could write, so I put the makeup down and did just that. Then I would go back to getting ready again and I would have to pause to write some more notes. While this was happening I was talking to God and I said God Why? Why me, why did you choose this path for me? Now I’ve heard from God before but nothing like this, it was as if he was in front of me holding my hands, his response was Why not you…LOOK AT WHAT I DID TO MY SON!! LOOK AT HIS PATH THAT WAS CHOSEN FOR HIM! I cried and thought how selfish am I! We all know that Jesus suffered a horrible death for our SINS!! He was born to die, with his mother watching him suffer to the end!!! I pray that we all remember that when we get so hung up on the why’s?? It won’t take them away but it should give you some peace.
So as I close let’s take a look at my miracles that are hard to see when you’re going through the eye of the storm.
Job 9:10 States: He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted.
Psalms 77:13.14 States: Your ways, O God, are holy (think about that his ways are holy no matter how bad they seem to us or how bad the pain is his ways are always holy) What god is so great as our God? (14) You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples.
My list of miracles that came out of this situation hasn’t been easy for me to see! As hard as it is to say my marriage was healed by this diagnosis. My husband was too proud and apologies weren’t his thing, and I was hurt and had a wall up! I was in survival mode! There were walls broken down, love and compassion shown and apologies said between us both that would have never happened if we weren’t placed in that situation. We were able to not take each other for granted which is so easy to do. My husband was also given 3 years and 1 month instead of the 15 months that we were told, he also got an extra 6 months instead of 6 weeks!!!
The Facebook page raised enough money for a weeklong trip to Florida at a resort where we were able to swim with manatees, eat dinner with the princesses and make some awesome memories. Just through that #Salvasstrong page I could spend an hour on the miracles that poured in from people all over that didn’t know us. My husband had a love for bald eagles, through our facebook page a gentleman heard our story wanted to help with the trip also learned of my husband love for bald eagles and he helped us have one brought to our home for him to see and get close with! Talk about an amazing sight I mean who has a Bald Eagle in your living room!! He was so happy and surprised.
Another huge miracle for us was that the money that came in assisted us with his medicine and bills so that we were able to keep everything going and I was able to care for him at home!! That was a HUGE blessing!! I was able to do things with my husband that he wanted to do while he could and not worry about bills not being paid. Another very special moment when those donations were being left people would leave messages that I would read to my husband which gave him lots of love and support from strangers!! I also was able to get in touch with others that had gone through this with their spouse! Another miracle was when Chuck had to be transported to Deer’s Head due to rapid decline that was so sudden and fast. The doctors needed to reevaluate a plan for him and keep him for a few days. For him to come home I would need a wheel chair, a wheel chair ramp, and a hospital bed!! That was on a Friday, his birthday was the very next day and I wanted him to be home!!! I made it very clear that he needed to come home to all the staff and I know they thought I was crazy! I remember the social worker seeing my pain and saying let me see what I can do! I also remember looking at my dear friend Kim and saying I want him home, and her response was ok what do we need to do? I said I need a ramp, she said I can handle that and that ramp was built that weekend and my husband was transported back home that afternoon with a hospital bed already set up in my house!
God is good, he spent his last birthday on earth at home and was surrounded by friends and family! I was able to show my husband unconditional love that he never thought was possible this side of heaven, and he would say that to me! I was able to read a letter that he wrote me on our last anniversary together that stated “ I now know what unconditional love feels like! "
Each and every day that I bathed him, pulled on him and feed him through lots of nights with little to no sleep! I protected to him to best of my ability! I prayed with him and read to him, I even sang to him!! I thank god for every moment we had those were miracles! Every word that was able to be spoken was a miracle! Hearing that he would miss me the most one day when we were struggling to get out of the wheelchair was a miracle, because if you recall from earlier my husband should have lost his speech after the second surgery and he didn’t!
After the third surgery he should have never spoke again and should have lost use of his right side. Well he spoke right when he woke up after that surgery and asked for his wife!!! He walked for months after the final surgery!! Those are miracles!!! Hearing him sing (he was good at singing) one more time in church was a miracle. Having family and friends stay the night so I could rest expecting nothing in return was a miracle! Lastly a miracle that I prayed for months after hospice told me that I would more than likely miss him passing away, I was there by his side until his last breath, holding his hand and reassuring him that I was there! God carried that prayer request from me even further and allowed some close family and friends to be there as well, as well Kamryn our daughter together and my oldest Kayla who really showed her love for her step-father by assisting me with his daily care. Those are miracles!!! Thank you ladies and I pray that we all look a little closer for those miracles!! God still performs them!!!!
*****
Words - Isaac Wimberely
If there are words for him then I don’t have them…you see my brain has not yet reached a point where it could form a thought that could adequately describe the greatness of my God!
And my lungs have not built up enough ability to release a breath with enough agility to breathe out the greatness of his love, and my voice you see my voice is so inhibited restrained by human limits that it’s hard to even send a praise up, you see if there are words for him then I don’t have them.
My God his grace is remarkable, mercies are innumerable, strength impenetrable, he is honorable, accountable, favorable, he’s searchable yet knowable, indefinable yet approachable, indescribable, yet personal, he is beyond all comprehension, further than imagination, constant through generation, king of every nation, but if there are words for him that I don’t have them.
You see my words are few and to try and capture the one true God using my vocabulary would never do! But I use words as an expression of worship to a savior, a savior who is both worthy and deserving of my praise so I use words. My heart bestows the lord blesses his name forever he has won my heart captured my mind and has bound them both together. He defeated me in my rebellion conquered me in my sin, he has welcomed me into his presence, completely invited me in. He has made himself the object of my sight flooded thee word living proof he is the imagine of the invisible God, first born of all creation for by him all things are created giving nothingness formation.
By his word sustains in the power of his name for all things and over all things he reigns holy is his name!!
So praise him for his life the way he preserved in strife the humble son of god, becoming the perfect sacrifice. Praise him for his death that he willing stood in our place that he loving endures the grave that he bowed our enemy and on the third day rose in VICTORY!!!!
He is everything that was promised. Praise him as a RISEN KING!! Left your voice and sing for one day he will return for us and we will finally be united with our savior for ETERNITY!!!
SO it’s just words that I proclaim for my words point to thee words and thee word has name. HOPE has a name. JOY has a name. PEACE has a name. LOVE has a name. BROKENESS has a name. FORGIVENESS has a name. AND THAT NAME IS JESUS CHRIST PRAISE HIS NAME FOREVER!!!

Augur is an open-source, decentralized prediction market platform built on Ethereum. It can forecast the outcome of an event based on the ‘wisdom of the crowd’ principle. Augur runs on its own token called REP.
The platform aims to revolutionize prediction markets and change the way people receive and verify the “truth”. The idea is to make more accurate predictions by large groups of people, rather than a small team of experts.
The decentralized nature of Augur not only ensures honesty in reporting the outcome of events but also protects it from governments centralizing it, who deem prediction markets as gambling.
The way it works is pretty straightforward. Each share is worth one dollar, so if a negative share is worth 50 cents and if a positive share is worth 50 cents, there is a 50/50 probability of said event becoming true or false according to the platform.
In case, that event takes place, the positive shareholders will receive a full dollar for each share bought. Anyone can create a market for a future event – from football results to celebrity marriages.
How to buy Augur?
During the crowdsale, a total of 8.8 million (80%) of all 11 million tokens were sold to investors. The remaining 2.2 million tokens were distributed to the team/advisors (16%) and to the Forecast Foundation (4%), a non-profit organization.
Augur’s crowdsale raised more than 2,000 BTC and 100,000 Ether on its first day.
Step 1: Get an Augur wallet
REP is an ETH based token, so you can store it using ETH wallet address. You can either use MyEtherWallet or Mist.
For best possible security, offline hardware wallets are the way to go. The best ones include Ledger Nano S or Trezor, both of which support most of the major cryptocurrencies.
Step 2: Buy Augur from an exchange
As of now Augur’s market cap is just above $200 million and is trading at $18 a piece.
How to buy Augur REPs, which are automatically stored in exchange’s online wallet.
Buy Augur in the Europe (EUR)
At the time of writing, the only fiat that can be used to buy Augur is Euro. Exchanges that support REP/EUR pair:
2. Buy Augur using Bitcoin
Regardless of the country you’re in, if you hold Bitcoins, you can buy any cryptocurrency. Here are some exchanges that facilitate REP/BTC trade:
Step 3: Withdraw Augur to your wallet
Once you have purchased REP, transfer them to any of the above-mentioned wallets of your choice – whether it be a hardware or HD (Hierarchical Deterministic) wallet.

Impact of BWCs on Citizen Complaints: Citizen Complaint BWC Outcome Directory (7/6/18)
The Citizen Complaint Directory provides information on 22 published studies or reports that examine the impact of BWCs on the prevalence of citizen complaints. Two notable findings emerge:
- Twelve of the 22 studies are randomized controlled trials (RCTs), displayed as Level 5 on the Maryland Scientific Methods Scale (MSMS). Only two studies are below Level 3. This finding highlights the robust methodological rigor of the rapidly growing body of research on BWCs.
- Seventeen of the 22 studies report substantial or statistically significant reductions in citizen complaints, following deployment of BWCs.
Taken together, the current body of research strongly demonstrates that police BWCs lead to reductions in citizen complaints against police.

103 The Esplanade, Cairns
What people are saying...
I have eaten at the restaurant twice in recent visits to cairns.
On both occassions the food was excellent and the service very good.
I will be in Cairns again this week and will enjoy a beer and a meal at this great eatery once again
Went to the raw prawn on valentines day 2012 and had an extremley great time will be back for more
and the port was a really nice end to a great evening
What a pleasant dining experience. Food, customer service, timing and value you for money. The entrees and main meals are decent portions and you won't be leaving hungry. Staff are neat and tidy, friendly and prompt to serve even on a busy night. I have been to this venue for lunch on numerous occasions and can't fault it. Dinner a second time is a must. Menu has variety including an extensive wine list. Restaurant has own brand champagne and beer. Impressed!
Me and my husband ate at the raw prawn early this week, i have to say it is one of the best seafood meals i have ever had.
Everything was amazing from the food and wine to the service. thank you very much we will be back again.
I first had a meal at the Raw Prawn over ten years ago. It was a little pricey but worth it.
Since then I have dined there on many occasions. It has remained "A little pricey but worth it". Both the food and service are consistently excellent.
Local produce is used for the majority of the dishes and is always in top condition.
It's worth the visit.
We have just been to 'The Raw Prawn' for dinner. I chose this restaurant after reading through the reports on this site for seafood restaurants and the 'hopefully' good advise from other patrons.
We were very happy with the service we received from the staff, the food was very nice, tasty and above what was expected in quantity. The kids meals came out a few minutes after our main, but the manager was very appologetic and ensured that we all (x5) received free desserts due to the lateness (5min) of the kids meals.
I would highly recommend this restaurant for a beautiful seafood meal whilst in cairns. Whilst it is not the cheapest in price, the quality and service were second to none, the kids kept asking why we were being treated like royalty, hard to explain to them that's what you get from a quality restaurant.
We have had lunch here on occasion, and they do the best lunch special in town! Two courses and a drink for $22.50 per person. The Chowder is different, and good, and the mud crab, tasty (we had the chilli on the side). The coconut seafood a definite hit as was the trio of seafood! It great find on the not so good Esplanade!!
Raw Prawn was a lovely surprise on our stop over in Cairns, the seafood was fresh and beautifully cooked, the salads were tasty and full of ingredients. The drinks menu and selection was diverse and the service was excellent.
We were very happy customers who will be back again. Thank you
What can we say about The Raw Prawn, what a great place and the food even better. The service was fantastic and the mannerism of the saff was fantastic to watch.
Will always go back for more!
P.S The port was very nice.
this restaurant is so damn good i'd recommend anything on the menu. i am particularly fond of the mornay oysters. devine!
My wife and I received a recommendation from one of the local tour operators to eat at the Raw Prawn. With so many places to eat on the boardwalk it's hard to know where to eat.
They offer a 30% discount on your food if you order by 6.15PM. We took the plunge and ordered their big seafood platter at $250 ($175- with discount).
We were not dissapointed. The food was fresh and tasted amazing all cooked to perfection with their rather fussy French Chef (don't ask for your lobster to be steamed ... he just refuses to do it).
We came back a second time before heading home.
Make sure you eat here!
We were lucky enough to find the Raw Prawn early in our short break to Cairns and ate dinner there twice. The service is fantastic but the food is even better.
Fresh lobsters from the tank cooked to perfection on night 1, and the next night we had fresh mud crab (1.1kg).
If you order before 6:15pm you get 30% off your bill (not including drinks).
I've eaten in many fine places around Oz and the Raw Prawn is equal first for quality and service. They are number one for price too.
I am from Spain and I have been in Australia. I have eatten in many restaurants in Australia during my holidays but the Raw Prawn in Cairns was excellent, the food and the service.
The service is very important when you are havind a nice dinner, and I really enjoy with the waiter. He is blond long hair and he has a pearcing and a cool tatoo in his harm. The worst thing is that he was laughing about my accent (I am joking).
I will be really grateful if u let him know that it was cool and I have fun during the dinner. Hope he remembers me.
Thank you very much.
My husband any I dined at the Raw Prawn a few times throughout our holiday in Cairns from Scotland. We also took friends there & recommended the restaurant to family visiting Cairns.
On one of the occasions my husband had the coral trout cooked in coconut - it was amazing and so I asked for a low down on the recipe which the chef was happy to give me. Unfortunately, I have lost the recipe and would, if the chef is reading this review, love to have it emailed to me!!
The food, ambience & service is top class - and although not cheap, it won't blow the budget!

My wife and I visited this restaurant three times in our five day visit to Cairns in February 2004. The food is absolutely excellent. We tried a variety of dishes, including the Macadamia Bay Bugs, the seafood curry, and the wild barramundi - all cooked to perfection.
The service was also excellent, and our particular waiter couldn't have been more friendly or helpful - a credit to the restaurant and its owners.
Well worth a visit if you are in Cairns.
I recently dined at the Raw Prawn with a table of 8 work colleagues visiting from Melbourne. I had been to the restaurant many times before and was happy to visit again.
My visit on this occasion was unforntunately marked (literally) by a bottle of Tabasco sauce. I had taken the bottle from the table to add to my fabulous oysters, when , after a gentle jiggle, the bottom of the bottle gave way and the contents ended up on my lap! The mine host, Peter Horn, immediately came to my aid and was genuinely concened. Unfortunately this was the end of my night, but my colleages remained to be enterained on the house. My trousers were laundered and returned to Melbourne.
Not the sort of restaurant review you might see too often, but indicative of the fantastic service at the Raw Prawn. I shall return.
Have your say...

Hockey. He's currently an announcer with the Carolina Hurricanes and Versus network, having started with the Hartford Whalers back in '95. I had a chance to talk to Forslund about the long journey, his catch phrase and how his idol played a role in his becoming an announcer.
The journey begins at his home in Springfield as a 10 yr old boy, who began his career commentating to his father and friends. After graduating from Springfield College, he worked for the Springfield Indians of the American Hockey League from '84-'91. While gaining great experience for little pay, Forslund played several roles including announcer and publicist. After 7 years, he wondered if he was ever going to achieve his dream.
Forslund got a break in '91, from all people, Bobby Orr. The Indians were affiliated with the Hartford Whalers for which Orr was on the Advisory Board. "Bobby was familiar with my work and put a word in with GM Eddie Johnston and coach Jim Roberts" Forslund stated. That meeting help Forslund get a PR job with the Whalers at age 29. In 94-95, the Whalers were acquired by Peter Karmonos and Forslund got his first opportunity to announce as part of a local package of 8 televised hockey games. That audition was cut short to 1 game because of the NHL lockout that year, but lead to his first full season of announcing in '95.
Forslund spoke of the last game that was televised in Hartford before moving to Carolina. "It was a very emotional game and everyone was in tears from the camera man to the producer. The final game, which didn't have any playoff implications, was played against the Tampa Bay Lightning. " Forslund begun the telecast by stating, "For a game that is meaningless, this means everything!"
Since then, he's announced for both the Carolina Hurricanes and NHL on Versus. When asked about a humorous moment in his announcing career, he recalls being on a 16 day road trip in which the Hurricanes were playing very well and winning a number of games thru late comebacks. " In one game, my voice cracked a couple of times and ESPN picked up on it and referred to me as Peter Brady of the Brady Bunch".
For viewers of the Canes or on Versus, you may have heard Forslund's catchphrase "Hey, hey whadda ya say". When asked how that came about, he explained that it was something his father used to say and one day he decided to incorporate it into his games. Sadly, Forslund's father passed away before John received his first NHL paycheck, but John pays tribute to his father every time he says the phrase.
Like many journey's, the road can be long and sometimes challenging. That appreciation allows Forslund to comes to the rink with the same enthusiasm he did when he first started. He's just living the dream.

Because they had already attended our 2-day seminar in Vero Beach we could fast track through the below deck systems. Two things which needed immediate attention and only one had anything to do with the boat. First, we discovered sluggish steering and the simple fix was to pump up the air pressure using a bicycle pump.
The second concern was a shoaling entrance channel that had temporary buoys. Another easy work around. Simply honor the newly placed buoys as we traveled the now narrow channel in and out of the marina. This is a terrific example of why we say look out the window- don't rely exclusively on your chart plotter or online resources. Nowhere could we find any notation that these additional buoys had been placed to deal with the shoaling channel.
Docking practice included bow and stern in, with and without thrusters at fixed and floating docks. We even took advantage of the nearby pile driving crews lunch break to maneuver between the barges and back, like an obstacle course. What a confidence booster!
Check out the photos below including the video with the temporary buoys. Then imagine yourself at the helm of this fabulous Fleming and Ask Captain Chris how we can help you get started on your own adventure. 772-205-1859

Seriously Strong had an unusual barrier – their name. Why? Despite it being the tastiest of Cheddars, it wasn’t always viewed as a family friendly cheese as Mums were scared their kids wouldn’t eat it because of it being too strong to handle!
We took a two phased approach to the campaign, to ensure that not only we’re we putting Seriously Strong at the forefront of the customer’s mindset, we were pro-actively re-aligning the perception of their cheese within the market.

Where to begin? Christy and I have been friends, well more like sisters sharing one heart, for about 7 years. She is like an extension of me, even though we now live over 200 miles from one another. We've had somewhat similar backgrounds, went to the same high school, and have shared too many memories to count- from tears to pee in your pants laughter! I love her more than I think she knows, and I am so grateful for her and her friendship. We've both grown into mature Christian women who seek Jesus like no other! We encourage one another when the other is down and we share a love for photography.
Christy has blown me away with her desire and love for photography. She stays up late researching, keeps up with other photographers and genuinely cannot get enough of it. She has taught me, encouraged me, and mentored me to be all that I can be. She is an amazing person inside and out and she is an incredible photographer. I am so excited for her and cannot wait to continue to watch her grow!
When did you know photography had your heart?
I knew that I have always loved the art of photography. I have always liked taking pictures, that stopping time moment. I have to be completely honest, though, and say that when I first picked up a DSLR, which was in NC when I was taking some snapshots of, well, YOU Cara, I fell in love with the camera itself. Now, please do not mistake me because I do not by any means believe the camera is what makes a picture, but it's like I had this light bulb go off in my head that this is what I was meant to do. I bought my first DSLR a few months later and ever since photography has "had my heart."
Why do you hope clients decide to hire you?
I want my people to hire me because they love ME and my art! I want them to know that I like to use smiley faces and exclamation points when I write e-mails or blog posts;) I try to make all of my clients feel special and very relaxed and comfortable. I do not want it to be like the traditional photo session AT ALL! It is meant to be about their personal style and I want them to be able to look at my blog and website and know that and KNOW ME! I hope to stop special memories in time so that my clients can cherish them for a lifetime.
What is the most valuable lesson you’ve learned thus far in your journey?
I can honestly say the most valuable thing I have learned so far is to never take my art for granted. What I mean by that is....and I think that all photographers at one time or another have done this, is to look at another photographer's pictures and wish upon wish that my pictures could look like hers or his. I have learned to appreciate mine! I have my own style and my own eye for beauty that our great GOD above gave to me and no one else has that very same thing;)
What or who inspires you the most?
I have to say WHAT inspires me the most is that I simply know that I love what I am doing when I am behind the camera. I have never really found something that I have just really loved doing until I found photography to be something that I knew I would be really interested in as a career. I find that it pushes me to learn all the time. I mean there is always something new to learn from something that I have previously learned. Know what I mean?!?! There are so many great photographers out there that inspire me to better myself. What I mean by this is not that I want my photos to look exactly like theirs, because I have my own style and keep developing in that, but I study their work and their technical skills and how they got to where they are today. It gives me that extra push to "keep on keepin' on." My pastor actually used that phrase last Sunday at church and it simply made me smile. For a couple of reasons. 1) because I remembered when Joe Dirt said it and 2) because I know in my heart that is what I truly need to do, as hard as it may seem sometimes and as busy as my life is, I know it will pay of in the end!
What’s your favorite shot you’ve taken so far?
My favorite shot that I have taken thus far is a shot that I took of my son Ayden. I was still trying to really figure my camera out and I had just switched over from auto to AP mode (I was slowly trying to ease into shooting manual) and I was shooting with my 50MM 1.8 which I love with all of my heart. Kaleb, and Joe had went hunting I believe which left Taylure, Ayden and I at home so of course I used this time for a mini photoshoot. It probably would not seem like anything special to many people, but something about this photo makes my heart melt. The look on his little face, he looks so innocent. He has his lips just a tad puckered and his eyes are not the sharpest ever but you can read into his soul. Like a sweet little angel. I look at this photo often and it makes me smile every time I do. This is what it's all about!
Christy's favorite shot (her precious son Ayden):
-67.jpg)
Where would your dream shooting location be?
My dream shooting location...ahhhh, would my kids be coming..hehe...No, seriously, If I could shoot anywhere it would be a lake or beach-y area that was kind of like not with alot of people there. I was recently reading a photographers blog that I absolutely adore and she was talking about Lake Michigan and it's beauty and showing some photos and I thought, YES that is where I would love to do a shoot. In the early morning just as the sun is rising, then again in midday on an overcast day and then again in the evening as the sun was setting. I know I know three photoshoots at the same place in one day at your dream location. Sounds like, well, a dream! I would just like a sort of deserted type area that has ends of beautiful-ness that our GOD himself created for me to capture moments for someone that would last forever.
What advice would you give someone just starting out in this great big intimidating world of photography?
For starters I still consider myself as needing advice and I am continuously looking for it! I stalk blogs (yes I said stalk) for FAQ's and any advice that anyone is willing to offer. Now when I say I stalk blogs I say this because I love to blog. A piece of advice that I have to offer, because I know from experience, is not to get caught up studying others work so much that you lose sight of what your own artistic abilities are. What I mean by this is, sure get inspiration from others' blogs, get FAQ's and information, but don't sit there and wish upon wish that your photos could be like theirs or study their work so much that it takes away from your own creativity. You have to appreciate your artistic abilities and what GOD has given YOU! It is easy to get discouraged and if you love what you are doing try hard to...Never get discouraged! Don't you dare hang that camera up or open that box up with the intention of putting it away..NONO...(imagine my finger waving back and forth.) Yes, it will be alot of work and you will have to study alot of different aspects of photography but if you stick with it, it will pay off for you in the end. It is about heart. If you don't have your heart in it as with anything, others will be able to know. There have been times, I will go ahead and admit, that I have taken a set of pictures and looked at them in post processing and thought "ahhh geez, i could have done better" but then I have to know that this is a learning experience and I am still learning and always will be. I will never be perfect! I practice all I can and I encourage others to practice. alot. On objects, on family members, friends, anything and everything. My dream and goal is to be the best photographer I can be for ME and my clients that choose to hire me. I don't need to be a superstar, I just want to be ME and that's the kind of attitude I encourage others to have. Don't try to compete to be the best of the best at all times. Just put your heart in it, get behind that camera and make time stop even if it's for a brief moment. Much Love!
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years?
In 5 years I see myself as a wife of an amazing husband, mommy to a 14 year old, 10 year old and 6 year old...OM-Goodness can I take a second and pick myself up off the floor. Saying my childrens ages in 5 years made me almost pass out;) I am not quite sure where this photography journey will take me but I know that my Maker had my plans made for me before I was even born and HE will carry me through whatever the future may hold for me.
In 10 years I see myself again as a wife to an even more amazing husband of NOW 14 years, mommy to a 19 year old, 15 year old and 11 year old. OK now I'm just going to have to step away for a moment because that is really freaking me out.....Ok, I'm back now. Again, Not so sure about my photography journey or any other life journey but I trust that HE is with me every second of every day.
Other than photography, what has your heart?
Well, I guess from the question above you can probably guess what or WHO has my heart...My Savior, my husband, and my three adorable children. Without them I simply wouldn't be me and if there wasn't a ME then this world would be no fun! I always know that I can talk to my Savior day or night and He is always listening. If I need guidance it seems that I hear the answer through a church song or a friend giving me advice or the sermon that my pastor is giving that week. HE is always there. Honestly, if I start talking about my husband and kids I could go on and on for days. This is how it is...We are known, by me, as the "fabulous 5", we love each other alot, we bicker at each other over silly stuff (like who left toothpaste marks on the sink, in the boys bathroom) we help each other out, like any family should, even though we have to repeat over and over sometimes "boys don't go outside until you help clean up after dinner." Taylure and I will go in together in the mornings to wake the boys up for school or daycare and she gives them a big hug and says, very loudly "come on boys." Like I said I could go on and on, but i won't because I'm using run on sentences like I do often and I know it's really annoying. Basically, they are my world.
Another person that holds a piece of my heart and always has and will is my sister, Kim. She is like the other half of me and people think we are twins. No really. We don't think we look alike, but other people do. I laugh at her alot because she's really funny. She doesn't laugh at me very much, I guess I'm not quite as funny as her. What she doesn't realize is that I am very funny, but I get all my funnies out before she gets here so she doesn't get to hear them. Her and I are tight like spandex. She's my sissy and I love her bunches.
What do you think sets you apart from the rest?
Of course, it would have to be the fact that I am a superhero. Not many people knew this, until I just announced it in this interview. Until now, I have kept it very low key and today I am finally announcing it to the world. Ok, we are be serious. sshhheesh. I want my clients to feel special! I want them to feel comfortable and I want to get to know something about them. I love children, I know you would think I would get tired of them, but I love them and I LOVE to shoot them! Haha I just made a funny! (See Kim) I want them to come to their session feeling like they already know me either through my blog or website and of course chatting through e-mail. Then I want them to leave from their session happy, and so excited to see their photos from the session they can hardly stand it! One thing I try to always do is give my clients a peak from their session either the same day if I'm able or a day or two later. The thing is, I have walked in those shoes before and I know they want to see something and honestly I am probably as excited to see them as they are! Basically, I think the main thing that sets me apart from all the rest is my eye. There's not another one out there in all the world exactly like it to capture the beauty of this world and I appreciate that.
Additional little note from Christy to me:
Thank you Cara. This was a very humbling experience and I am grateful for the opportunity! I mean someone wanting to interview little 'ol me. Thank you, thank you! And this is probably not very professional but neither is telling the whole world I am a superhero, I love you!
Here are some more of Christy's favorite photos and why:
i took this photo at my home just after it rained. the leaf just sort of spoke to me. and i love the way the simplicity of it.
i absolutely LOVE this image! what can i say, i LOVE these people. they had love for each other like you wouldn't believe and this image shows their fun side.
Cute little baby feet. Oh how I love them! They always smell so good, they are so little, so pure and so soft.
-96.jpg)
Aaahhhh, this one has my heart...it's my children. Taken on Easter playing outside and I captured Ayden and Kaleb letting Taylure smell a flower. Oh the simple life of being little again. This is what life is all about.
-41.jpg)
One of my favs because two of my best buds renewed their vows after many years of marriage. He surprised her with it and asked me to do some photos. I was overjoyed and had so much fun watching them in love! This is one of my favorites of the day!
-33.jpg)
This is one of my favorites from a recent session that I did! I showed them a preview of this one picture, because I loved it so much! It's kind of simple yet you definitely get the point that they are HOT! BOOYA
this photo sort of speaks for itself. i love how kids are so unpredictable. and this is why i love photographing kids so much.
Simply put. Gorgeous.
Another photo taken at my home. This little guy hung around for a few days and finally let me take some photos of him. Unfortunate for him, I caught him, taking Oreo's (our cat) food! I just think it's adorable, a bird eating out of a cat dish.
Christy- Thank you so much for taking the time to do this interview! You've definitely inspired me, and probably everyone else! Keep on keepin' on Friend! I love you so much!
Christy lives in Knoxville, TN. Check out her website and blog for LOTS more!
Cara, the words you used to describe our friendship were right on! I love you with all my heart and I wish you all the best as well in your photographic journey! We are here to inspire each other. You did such a great job putting this interview together, and I hope there weren't to many spelling errors to correct;) I love you so much!!!
Christy
What a pleasure to experience both of you in this interview. I remember when both of you were little giggly girls. The overnight stays with my daughters Tiffany and Lyndsay, the football games, the party's at our house and yes, the dreaded senior trip...(for us parents that is) Both of you have grown to be beautiful, loving and talented women. Continue your journey and capture lifes blessings...photography has always a passion of mine too. My motherly advice would be to embrace your gift with whimsy and laughter, nonsense and grace, every tear, thought, smile or gaze is yours to embrace! And, never ever let your camera collect dust! Love to both of you Cara and Christy~ Cathie Cardwell

*The following instructions should only be used as guidelines and are not meant to replace manufacture or trailer dealer’s instructions.
Coupling Your Trailer
A secure coupling (or fastening) to the tow vehicle is essential. A loss of coupling may result in serious injury or death. Therefore, you must understand how to properly couple your cargo trailer to your tow vehicle.
The following parts are involved in making a secure coupling between the trailer and.
- Weight distributing hitch (equalizing hitch): A mechanical device that connects the trailer to the towing vehicle and by means of leverage applied to the trailer and towing vehicle structure, when properly adjusted, distributes the imposed vertical load at the hitch and coupling connection between structures of the towing vehicle and the trailer.
- Weight carrying hitch: A mechanical and/or structural device that connects the trailer to the towing vehicle and that does not employ features designed to redistribute the load imposed at the hitch and carrying connection.
- Safety chains or cables: Chains or cables permanently attached to the trailer such that if the coupler connection comes lose, the safety chains or cables can keep the trailer attached to the tow vehicle. With properly rigged safety chains or cable, it is possible to keep the tongue of the trailer from digging into the road pavement, even if the coupler-to-hitch connection comes apart. Some states do not allow safety cables. Therefore, it may be wise to check with the state police to see if your state has any restrictions on the use of safety cables, if your trailer is so equipped.
- Trailer lighting (and braking) connector: A device that connects electrical power from the tow vehicle to the trailer. Electricity is used to turn on brake lights, running lights, and turn signals as required. In addition, if your trailer has a braking system, the electrical connector will also supply power to the trailer brakes from the tow vehicle.
- Break-away switch: If the trailer becomes uncoupled from the towing vehicle, the break-away switch lanyard, attached independently to the tow vehicle, will pull a pin in the emergency electrical break-away switch on the trailer. The break-away switch is activated by a separate battery supply in the trailer such as to energize the trailer brakes independently of the towing vehicle. It is important to check the state of charge of the emergency break-away battery before each trip. Simply pull the pin out of the switch by hand and then try to pull the trailer forward. If you feel a significant drag force, then the brakes are activated. Be sure to re-insert the pin in the break-away switch. Also, be sure to allow enough slack in the break-away switch lanyard such that the switch will only activate (pin pulls out) if the trailer becomes uncoupled from the tow vehicle.
- Jack: A device on the trailer that is used to raise and lower the trailer tongue. On larger trailers it is sometimes called the “landing gear”. They are common on gooseneck cargo trailers.
Use an adequate tow vehicle and hitch
If you do not use the proper tow vehicle, and one that is matched to the Gross Vehicle Weight (GVRW) of your trailer, you could cause an accident that can cause serious injury or death. If you already have a tow vehicle, you should know your vehicle tow rating, and Gross Combination Weight Rating (GCWR) and make certain the trailer’s rated capacity is less than or equal to the tow vehicle’s rated towing capacity. If you already have, or plan to buy a trailer, make certain that the tow rating of the tow vehicle is equal or greater than the GVWR of the trailer, and that the GCWR will be within limits.
Before coupling your trailer to the tow vehicle
Be sure the size and rating of the hitch ball match the size and rating of the coupler. Couplers and hitch balls are rated with the rating and size.
Wipe the hitch ball clean and inspect for any damage by feeling for cracks, flat spots, or pits.
Rock the hitch ball to make sure the ball is tight to the hitch, and visually check to make sure the ball nut is solid against the lock washer and hitch frame.
Clean the inside of the coupler by wiping it inside and outside and inspect it visually for cracks and deformations. Make sure to feel inside the coupler for worn spots or pits.
Check the coupler and make sure it is tightly attached to the tongue of the trailer. All coupler bolts and nuts should be tight against the trailer frame.
Raise the coupler so that its bottom is above the hitch ball. It is best to use the trailer tongue jack if you have one.
Prepare the hitch and coupler
Lightly lubricate the hitch ball and inside of the coupler with automotive bearing grease.
Check to make sure the coupler is still above the hitch ball so that the ball can slide under the coupler.
Open the coupler lock. Ball couplers have a locking mechanism with an internal moving clamp like piece, and an outside wheel, handle, or latch.
In the open position, the clamp underneath the coupler opens, allowing the coupler to drop fully onto the hitch ball.
Coupling the trailer to the tow vehicle
Backing up the tow vehicle
Check once again to make sure the coupler is higher than the hitch ball.
It is best to have help in backing up your tow vehicle to the cargo trailer.
Trying to do this alone can be dangerous and result in serious injury or death!
One person slowly and carefully backs up the tow vehicle while the other person directs them into position. For safety, the person guiding should stand just to the outside of the tow vehicle to prevent them from being crushed between the tow vehicle and the trailer.
The person guiding should direct the driver so that the hitch ball is under the coupler. Make sure again that the coupler is still higher than the hitch ball. If it needs to be raised, make sure to have the driver put the vehicle in park before walking behind the vehicle.
When the trailer ball is centered under the coupler, crank the tongue jack to lower the trailer until the ball is all the way down onto the hitch ball. If needed, rock the trailer just enough until the couplers falls into place over the hitch ball.
If the coupler will not go all the way down on the ball, your hitch ball may be too large. Stop what you are doing and double check to make sure you have properly matched the hitch ball with the size indicated on the coupler.
Lower the lock on the top of the coupler until it is locked into place. Sometimes couplers can look like they are locked so look closely to make sure that it closes into position fully. You should not be able to lift the coupler off the hitch ball when it is when it’s in place.
If there is a lot of slack and the coupler look loose over the hitch ball, your hitch ball may be too small. Stop what you are doing and double check to make sure you have properly matched the hitch ball with the size indicated on the coupler.
Be sure to insert a pin or lock into the hole on the locking mechanism. Locks are best so that no one can steal your trailer or unlock the coupler without your knowledge.
If the pin or lock will not line up with the hole, this may mean that the coupler latch is not fully locked into place.
To make sure that it is secure, use your trailer jack and try to raise the trailer no more than 1 inch. It should raise the rear of your tow vehicle slightly as you do this if it is properly connected.
DO NOT RAISE THE TOW VEHICLE MORE THAN ONE INCH!
If the coupler cannot be secured to the hitch ball, do not tow the trailer.
Lower the trailer until its entire tongue weight is held by the hitch. Continue retracting the jack to its fully retraced position.
Make sure the jack is all the way up, otherwise you may bend your jack by hitting a pot hole or dip in the road.
Attach the safety chains
Check the safety chains and hooks for damage or wear. Replace worn or damaged safety chains and hooks before towing.
Crisscross the chains underneath the coupler so if the trailer uncouples, the safety chains can hold the tongue up above the road.
Loop around a frame member of the tow vehicle or to holes provided in the hitch system. Do not attach them to an interchangeable part of the hitch assembly.
Attach the “S” hooks by hooking them from underneath the holes, not from the top. Make sure to provide enough slack to permit tight turns, but not so long that the chains drag on the road.
Attach and test electric break-away brake system
If the coupler or hitch fails, a properly connected and working break-away brake system will apply electric brakes on the trailer. The safety chains will keep the tow vehicle attached and as the brakes are applied at the trailer’s axles, the trailer/tow vehicle will come to a controlled stop.
The break-away break system includes a battery, a switch, a pull-pin, and a lanyard. Read and follow the instruction provided to you by the brake manufacturer. If you do not have these instructions contact your trailer dealer.
The break-away brake system may be fitted with a charging capability that draws power from the tow vehicle. If the electric system on your tow vehicle does not provide power to the break-away brake battery, you must periodically charge the battery to keep the break-away brake system in working order.
Connect the pull-pin lanyard to the tow vehicle so that the pull-pin will be pulled out before all of the slack in the safety chains is taken up (see break-away brake system, figure). Do not connect the pull-pin cable to a safety chain or to the hitch ball or hitch ball assembly. This would prevent the break-away break system from operating when it’s needed.
To test the break-away brake battery, remove the pull-pin from the switch and try and pull the trailer forward. You should feel the trailer resisting being towed, but the wheels will not necessarily be locked. If the brakes do not function, do not tow the trailer until the brakes or the battery have been repaired.
Immediately replace the pull-pin back into the switch. The breakaway brake system battery discharges rapidly when the pull-pin is removed.
Do not tow the trailer with the break-away brake system ON (pin pulled out) because the brakes will overheat which can result in permanent brake failure.
If you do not use your trailer for several months, or during winter months:
- Store the battery indoors and;
- Charge the battery periodically as needed.
Replace the break-away break battery according to the intervals specified by the battery manufacturer.
Connect the electrical cables (plug)
Connect the trailer lights to the tow vehicles using the electrical connector(s).
Check to make sure all lights are operating.
- Clearance and running lights (turn on tow vehicle headlights)
- Break lights (have someone step on the tow vehicle’s brake pedal)
- Turn signals (operate tow vehicles turn signal lever for both directions)
Check electric brakes for proper operation using brake controller mounted in the cab of tow vehicle.
If your cargo trailer has electric brakes, your tow vehicle will have an electric brake controller that sends power to the trailer brakes. Before towing the trailer on the road, you must operate the brake controller while trying to pull the trailer forward to make sure the electric brakes operate.
While towing the trailer at less than 5 M.P.H., manually operate the electric brake controller in the tow vehicle cab. Do not do this on the road. You should feel the operation of the trailer brakes.
You should review our Safe Cargo Trailer Towing Guidelines
Uncoupling the ball hitch trailer with the tongue jack
Follow these steps to uncouple your ball hitch trailer from the tow vehicle
- Make sure trailer is parked on a flat surface.
- Block trailer tires to prevent the trailer from rolling, before jacking up the trailer.
- Disconnect the electrical connector.
- Disconnect the brake-away break switch lanyard.
- Disconnect the safety chains from the tow vehicle.
- Unlock the coupler and open it.
- Before extending the jack, make certain the ground surface below the jack pad will support the tongue load. Do not use the jack on bear ground. Make sure to place a piece of wood or metal underneath the jack pad.
- Rotate the jack handle (or crank) clockwise. This will slowly extend the jack and transfer the weight of the trailer tongue to the jack.
Trailer with gooseneck coupler and drop-leg jack
A gooseneck coupler on the trailer connects to a gooseneck hitch that you must have installed in the bed of the tow vehicle, normally in the center. This system of coupling a trailer to a tow vehicle permits the tow vehicle to turn to sharper angles than are possible with a bumper hitch system. A gooseneck coupler consists of a tube in an inverted “U” shape and a gooseneck ball receiver. “Trailer with a gooseneck hitch coupler” figure shows a trailer with a gooseneck coupler.
Contact your trailer dealer for more information on coupling and uncoupling your cargo trailer.

Caesars Entertainment Corp. announced today plans to operate two hotels and a beach club in Dubai. The properties will be located on the artificial Bluewaters Island, off the Jumeirah Beach Residence coast line, and are slated to open doors in the fourth quarter of the year.
The two resorts will not feature casinos as gambling is banned across the United Arab Emirates. They will be Caesars’ first-ever non-gaming properties.
The Las Vegas gaming and hospitality giant said in a statement from earlier today that it has partnered local real estate, tourism, and hospitality company Meraas Holding to work with in Dubai.
As mentioned above, Caesars Palace Bluewaters Dubai and Caesars Bluewaters Dubai are expected to launch later this year. The former, named after Caesars’ flagship property Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, will feature 178 luxury hotel rooms, two outdoor and one indoor swimming pools, a spa and a health center, an event center, a business center, and six restaurants. The property will also include facilities for meeting and conference activity.
Caesars Bluewaters Dubai will have 301 hotel rooms for guests, two swimming pools, both of which located outdoors, three meeting rooms, a 9,000-square-foot event hall, and food and beverage facilities. Both hotels will provide their guests with access to a nearly 5,000-square-foot private beach.
The two new resorts come as a manifestation of Dubai’s strategy to diversify its economy and improve the experience the city offers to both residents and visitors under the Dubai Plan 2021.Planned Expansion
Announcing its Dubai hotel resorts, Caesars embarks on a planned expansion of its global footprint which it first revealed last spring. The company’s main operating unit recently emerged from bankruptcy and is now looking for opportunities to extend its presence across the globe.
Dubai is the first new destination Caesars is entering as part of its growth strategy and the first one where the major operator will operate non-gaming facilities. Bob Morse, President of Hospitality for Caesars, told media that the Gulf region is gradually becoming an attractive investment destination with the efforts made by local rulers to reduce states’ dependence on oil and diversify their economies.
Commenting on the fact that the two Dubai hotels would not feature casinos, Mr. Morse said that while gambling is prohibited in the region, it has a large expatriate population and part of their Gulf customers would certainly feel attracted to Caesars’ casino gaming resorts across the United States.
The official further pointed out that the Las Vegas gaming and hospitality giant has set sights on other parts of the world and would expand its non-gaming business even more in the coming years. Mr. Morse revealed that they are actively pursuing expansion opportunities across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and the United States.
The post Caesars to Manage Two Non-Gambling Resorts in Dubai appeared first on Casino News Daily.

>>: Muscat, 2015
Winery: Township 7, Naramata Bench
Why drink it? If you are familiar with Muscat, you know that it has a beautiful, fragrant, nose that lifts out of the glass like fresh flowers being caressed by a slight breeze. Orange blossom, a hint of spice, with a flinty quality, stone fruit (think white peach). The grapes for this wine come from the Oliver area where the warmth brings out the distinctive, developing Okanagan terroir of fresh fruit on the first taste, but with a dry, cleansing finish. You may be hard-pressed to find a bottle, so hit up a friend who collects BC wine, or visit the winery to find out when the next vintage is coming.
Price: $18
Pair with: A great wine, chilled, to drink on its own as a meet and greet aperitif before a meal or with light appies, pairs well with Asian cuisine that is both spicy with a hint of sweetness. Thai food, a lighter/creamy curry, or salad rolls with peanut sauce.
Classic cancon music pairing: Miss Chatelaine, k.d. lang

Jessica Chastain Is New Monroe
ALBERTO PIZZOLI / AFP / Getty Images
Jessica Chastain is set to become another actress to portray icon Marilyn Monroe on the big screen. Allegedly, she landed the lead role in director Andrew Dominik’s new drama titled Blonde.
According to TheWrap.com, she will replace Naomi Watts in the movie, which is an adaptation of Joyce Carol Oates’ novel of the same title.
The book earned the author Pulitzer Prize consideration in 2001 when it was published. It conjures Monroe’s personality and attempts to tell the story from the point on Norma Jeane Baker, which was Monroe’s real name.
If this is not just a rumor, Chastain will join stars such as Michelle Williams (My Week With Marilyn), Mira Sorvino and Ashley Judd (Norma Jean & Marilyn) and Susan Griffiths (Marilyn & Me), who have also portrayed Monroe.
In a TV mini-series from 2001, Australian actress Poppy Montgomery portrayed the singer/actress.
Marilyn was born as Norma Jeane Mortenson (soon after she changed it to Baker), as the third child born to Gladys Pearl Baker. Monroe’s birth certificate states the father to be Martin Edward Mortensen, with an unknown residence.
The name Mortenson is provided as her surname on the birth certificate, although Gladys, the mother, immediately had it changed to Baker, the surname of her first husband.
Monroe said once that when she was a child, she was presented a photograph of a man that Gladys identified as her father, Charles Stanley Gifford.
She remembered that he had a thin mustache and resembled famous Clark Gable and that she had amused herself during childhood by pretending that Clark was her father.

Young couples, first time home buyers often wonder if they can afford their dream home – without breaking the bank. Taking on a house and mortgage can limit other things which may or may not be important. Retirement savings, vacations, new car purchases and what about living for today? Big mortgage payments might make a family think twice about that vacation.
Not surprisingly, a lot of Baby Boomers are considering a downsize of their home. In some cases, it’s because people have more house than they need once the kids grow up and move out.
Either way, young or old, upsize or downsize, housing costs represent a large component of household spending and a large proportion of household net worth. It’s important to evaluate the pros and cons of moving up or cashing out.
Just because a bank approves you for a mortgage, it doesn’t mean you’re wise to take it on.
Let me help you make sound finincial planning when it comes to moving up or cashing out. I’ve been helping people with these most importand decisions for over 25 years.
Please give me a call to discuss your housing needs.

Have you ever wondered how all of those colorful auto dealership promotion pamphlets arrive in the mail at the exact moment you are contemplating a new car purchase? Oddly enough, they are perfectly timed to coincide with your vehicle-buying needs — and there’s a reason behind it.
Consider this: In 2012, studies showed that more than 90 percent of consumers began their car search online. This insight, according to Ken Schwartz, founder of InMarketSolution (IMS), a Chicago-based marketing company geared specifically to the auto industry and its potential buyers, provides dealerships with a treasure trove of demographic information.
“Consumer data is abundant and valuable, yet many dealers fail to fully exploit its potential,” says Schwartz. “In this way, we use best-of-breed data to identify consumers currently in the market to buy a car.”
The way it works is that IMS uses proprietary data from its InMarket Buyers List to identify when a consumer is in the market to buy or lease a car. IMS then compares that list to the Dealer Database Management System, removing all matches to ensure the IMS driven sales are new customers.
Using multiple technologies, IMS tracks and interacts with the InMarket Buyers multiple times by using a combination of highly targeted direct mail and digital advertising that will potentially drive exclusive leads to a targeted dealership.
The difference between IMS and other direct-mail marketing companies is its business model. In a nutshell, if a dealership doesn’t get new customers through IMS’s efforts, the dealership doesn’t pay a dime.
“I am so confident that our program works, that I am willing to put my money where my mouth is,” says Schwartz. “Simply put, if a dealership doesn’t sell cars to new customers, we don’t get paid.”.

Beat you to it, Kymriah: Gilead strikes discount Yescarta deal with NHS in adults
Gilead Sciences has one-upped Novartis in England’s CAR-T market. The drugmaker reached a deal with NHS England on Yescarta, beating rival Kymriah to become the first CAR-T therapy available to adult blood cancer patients on England’s public health system, albeit via the Cancer Drugs Fund.
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) had in August rejected Yescarta because its price didn’t meet the agency’s cost-effectiveness metrics. But now, NICE has come around to back its use under NHS England’s Cancer Drugs Fund—after a confidential discount off the £300,000 full list price.
The fund, managed by NICE, which operates under NHS England, serves as an extra means for patients to access novel medicines early before a full NICE backing.
With this deal, an estimated 200 patients a year will be eligible for the treatment, according to NHS England. These are adult patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) who have failed at least two prior therapies.
In the clinical trial that led to Yescarta’s EU approval in late August, 72% of patients responded to it, and half of them remained cancer-free six months after treatment.
However, almost at the same time Yescarta won EU clearance, NICE gave its thumbs-down to the drug, citing the lack of direct clinical data that compare Yescarta with standard salvage chemotherapy. Though the agency recognized Yescarta as “a step-change in treatment,” the cost police concluded that Yescarta’s price was too high to be considered cost-effective.
Whatever discount Gilead offered to get a deal now, it is obviously enough to win partial endorsement from NICE in adult patients, which rival Novartis’ Kymriah doesn’t have. After stiff-arming Yescarta, NICE in September approved Kymriah at a list price of £282,000, but only in children and young adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Then, Kymriah’s hope to reach England’s adult patients was also nixed by NICE for the same reason Yescarta faced—it’s too expensive because no data against salvage chemo is available to gauge the drug’s benefit.
Yescarta is currently leading Kymriah in sales. In the first half of 2018—when neither drug had won an EU nod—the Gilead drug sold $108 million in the U.S. But with Kymriah’s second FDA nod in DLBCL in May, the two drugs are now officially vying in the same indication.

Julian Jackson jokingly calls the whimsical detailing of the apartment`s architecture ''early Balaban and Katz,'' referring to the developers of several of Chicago`s ornate 1920s motion picture palaces. With its decorative columns and moldings, its carved wooden balcony overlooking the living room, its plaster rosettes, arches and slate stairway leading to the second floor, the Jacksons` residence does create a fairy-tale cocoon.
Viewed while driving down Lake Shore Drive or from the windows of neighboring buildings that tower over the vintage high-rises, penthouses appear as mansions sitting on top of skyscrapers. The older ones often come complete with gabled roofs and gardens. Newer buildings have streamlined the penthouse look, but outdoor terraces and duplex architecture remain signature touches for these rare, elite and ever-so-urban residences.
With the demand for luxury apartments outstripping the supply in Chicago, duplexes both at and below the penthouse level get snapped up fast, according to real estate agents.
''It`s like living in the suburbs. You need ladders and shovels'' to prune trees and plant seasonal rounds of flowers, said Jack Kreitinger of his penthouse terrace in a contemporary condominium 21 stories up. Kreitinger`s suburbia just happens to overlook Lincoln Park and the lake.
Builders early on designed luxury apartments to woo a clientele of down-to-earth mansion dwellers, who warmed up slowly to the idea of apartment living.
When Potter Palmer turned the rustic Near North Side into the Gold Coast in the 1880s, he set the trend for fashionable residences in the area with his own sprawling brick castle of a home at 1350 N. Lake Shore Dr., where a high- rise now stands. The socially prominent of New York, London and Paris might live in apartments, but Palmer and his friends snubbed any such notion for Chicago.
Yet even the millionaires couldn`t stem the rapid growth of the Near North Side, and a generation after they arrived on the Gold Coast, their behemoth mansions became urban dinosaurs. Prominent architects such as Benjamin Marshall, who designed the Drake Hotel, applied their fine-tuned sense of opulence to luxury city apartments. Marshall favored neoclassical exteriors and palatial floor plans that, at his 1550 N. State Pkwy. building, devoted an entire floor to each apartment.
Marshall`s contemporary, Howard Van Doren Shaw, collaborator in the design of the Fourth Presbyterian Church on North Michigan Avenue, brought to the apartment the crowning pedigree of respectabiltiy when he initiated ownership covenants for one of his buildings. The agreements helped pave the way for state legislation that established the cooperative apartment as a forerunner to the condominium.
But then as now, builders focused on single-story floor plans. Despite the popularity of duplexes, ''there are only a handful of them in the city,'' said Helen Baker, executive vice president of Sudler Marling Inc., which manages several luxury condominium buildings in Chicago. The majority of the duplexes in town are condominiums that, with three bedrooms, sell for more than $700,000, Baker said.
In the new Olympia Center condominium building, 161 E. Chicago Ave., two 8,000-square-foot duplexes sold for close to $2 million each even before the building went up, said Ann Buchbinder, center sales director. Most of the 12 duplexes, built on the top six floors of the 63-story skyscraper, have been sold. One of the smaller duplexes (1,850 square feet with one bedroom and a loft) still available is selling for $440,000, Buchbinder said. She attributes the success of the duplex units to ''a demand for dramatic space.''
22 STORIES UP
Those who find such space don`t give it up. The Jacksons waited through two tenants before they were able to lease their duplex penthouse, which they have lived in for 25 years.
As advertising and public relations partners in the Julian J. Jackson Agency, they entertain frequently at home for clients, which have included the Chicago Historical Society, Ravinia, private schools and medical organizations.
''We`ve hosted receptions, seminars and a large scholarship tea here,''
Eleanor Jackson said. ''There seems to be something about the apartment that is so welcoming.''
Parties spill out onto the rooftop terrace with its sweeping three-sided view of Streeterville. But inside, it`s easy to forget that the home is 22 stories up.
An arched doorway into the apartment opens to a pillared colonnade and to the two-story living room beyond it. A formal dining room, a breakfast room used as a greenhouse, a butler`s pantry, kitchen, study and master bedroom complete the first floor. The slate stairway off the colonnade leads to two more rooms upstairs.
The elaborate moldings, gargoyles and reliefs fill the cream-colored walls and ceiling of the living room with ornamentation. Traditional furnishings combine with an eclectic mix of antiques, collectibles, books and paintings.
No one can accuse the Jacksons of dispassionate decorating. Their home is a living album of mementos. The Civil War book collection, the family heirloom clock above the fireplace and the collection of owls from around the world all interweave stories they tell with gusto about their travels, profession, marriage and families.
The owl collection, for instance, started with a china cookie jar and wasn`t meant to be a collection at all. But additional owls arrived from their guests, such as fan dancer Sally Rand, world famous for routines in which she ''put on her costume with a powder puff'' and then hid behind those fans, as the Jacksons described her.
''Pretty soon all our friends thought we collected owls, and they began to send them,'' Julian Jackson said. ''There`s even a cross-eyed one from Sweden.''
GARDEN IN THE SKY
Penthouses with terraces are as rare a breed as the duplexes in town. Kreitinger speculates that ''practical Midwesterners'' can`t see taking up large amounts of floor space with an outdoor terrace that can be used only a few months a year.
Kreitinger, a landscape architect as well as interior designer, remodeled his terrace with slatted wood and built-in planters so it resembles a back yard deck complete with grill and patio furniture. The garden on the deck is the centerpiece of the apartment, and he maintains it even in the snow.
''As soon as the Christmas trees arrive, I dig them into the dirt and they last all winter,'' he said. In spring, his tulips and bulbs blossom. In summer, he plants annuals. In fall, the maple trees on the deck change to a canopy of autumn leaves above cascades of mums.
Kreitinger also raises orchids year-round in an enclosed greenhouse off the deck. Its southern exposure gives it lots of solar heat, regardless of the wind chill outside. Potted orchids anchored by metal holders run up the walls. The room is tiny, but Kreitinger`s climbing garden leaves plenty of space for a wicker table and chairs that provide a favorite spot for breakfast and lunch.
Some of the ideas for the garden and greenhouse came from Italy, Kreitinger said. ''People make such efficient use of small garden spaces there.''
The greenhouse shelters the deck on the north, and a white latticed wall with a fountain shelters the east exposure.
The glass patio doors to the living room at the west side of the deck provide an additional wall of shelter from Windy City gusts. The deck is open on the south, giving it optimum light in all seasons.
The living room-with its bank of glass and Earth tones in the upholstery, carpeting and the marble window seat extending from the fireplace-creates a visual extension of the garden deck and pulls the outdoors in.
A penthouse garden does tend to set him apart from his condominium neighbors, however, Kreitinger admitted.
''People look at you funny when you live in a high-rise and the nursery delivers trees and you`re hauling in 50 pounds of potting soil.'' -

4-3 as Sammy Sosa popped out to third to end the game with two men on base.
"I think the guy [Willis] showed enough in six innings to convince you that he isn't too bad," said manager Jack McKeon, whose Marlins had lost their previous five games to the Cubs.
Cubs starter Carlos Zambrano also blanked the Marlins for six innings. He gave way to Mike Remlinger after the rain delay, and the left-hander promptly surrendered back-to-back homers to Luis Castillo and Pudge Rodriguez.
"Usually good pitches don't go out of the yard," said Remlinger (5-3).

10 years of my 25 year life were spent in pursuit of a career in Architecture until I realized that a life spent drafting in front of a computer was not the life for me. Last fall, after taking most of the summer off to soul search and renovate our kitchen, I was still feeling lost when my mom suggested that I look into working as a professional organizer/downsizing consultant since I seem to have a knack for spatial reorganization and furniture layouts. In November, I was able to connect with a local Certified Professional Organizer/Certified Relocation Transition Specialist and have been working with her as an independent contractor (and loving it) ever since. Thanks, Mom! I recently took another step in this direction and decided to join the National Association of Professional Organizers. With this latest life development, I was excited to see this post from Apartment Therapy pop up on my RSS feed the other day. I love how Amelia Meena of Appleshine Lifestyle Organization defines "living within your means." I have always thought about this phrase in regard to financial means --- but it makes so much sense to apply it to your space! I've seen so many episodes of House Hunters where families move to accommodate their excess possessions, sure to continue collecting more and more until they have to move again. So many resources could be conserved if we all made a better effort to live within our means (and stay organized!).
Thanks Amelia, and Apartment Therapy, for sharing!

With the announcement of his debut album immanent, Isaac Gracie embarks on his biggest tour yet, which includes a date at The Crescent, York on April 16th. Gracie quickly rose to fame in 2015 with his powerful vocals and remarkable song-writing ability; since then he has gone from strength to strength with the release of his EP ‘The Death of You and I’ back in August 2017 and the release of his single ‘Terrified’, a track that leaks Gracie’s vulnerability. On the back of a small number of sold out dates back in January, Gracie promises to be a spectacle that everyone should know about, and if people don’t know who he is now, they certainly will upon the release of his debut album. His York date is set to be an intimate gig in which Gracie will showcase his talent as both a musician and a songwriter. Fans of the likes of Jeff Buckley and Ryan Adams are sure to fall in love with the sounds of one of the UK’s biggest upcoming talents.Joe Daubney

Pre-Application Form
3. Site Plan Approval
After you have attended a Pre-Application Meeting, you can submit ten folded sets of Preliminary Site Plans to the Planning Department for review by the various disciplines. In some cases applicants are asked to resubmit Preliminary Site Plans before they are scheduled for a Planning Commission Meeting, in order to make changes to the plans to better comply with Ordinance requirements. Plans that are recommended for approval will be placed on the first available Planning Commission meeting agenda for their approval. Planning Commission meetings are typically held twice per month.

The City of Novi is constantly striving to improve the time it takes to have a site plan reviewed and approved for construction, while balancing the unique environmental features of the community. The Planning and Building Departments recently underwent a process improvement review and have begun shortening the approval time for new proposals. Currently, it takes approximately 7 months to complete the site plan approval process. This can vary widely based on the type of project proposed, whether or not a rezoning is required, and the quality of plans being submitted for review, among other factors. To discuss your specific circumstances, contact the Planning Department at 248-347-0415.
These signs mean that a property owner or applicant has requested different zoning on the parcel than what is currently designated. A change in zoning is requested when an owner wants to propose a use (such as an office or shopping center) not allowed by the current zoning designation. When you see the sign, this usually means that an application is on file with the Planning Department, and that the Planning Commission and the City Council will be considering the applicant’s request in the near future. Please click here for the current Planning Commission agendas to see if the rezoning request is scheduled to be considered.
Homeowner Association approval may be required prior to construction of decks, additions, detached structures, fences pools or exterior alterations. Contact your Association for more information. Limited contact information may be available through Community Relations at 248-347-0628.

Code related questions may be addressed by the appropriate inspector between 8:00 - 9:00 a.m. and 4:00pm - 5:00pm.
Requirement sheets for projects needing a permit are listed here.
Homeowner Association approval may be required prior to construction of decks, additions, detached structures, fences or exterior alterations. Contact your Association for more information.

You Won’t Believe Who Almost Tried Out for Nick’s Part in Love, Simon
Shawn Mendes is dropping all the juicy deets this week, admitting he almost starred in the hit film Love, Simon, and he’s even dropping major info about how his newest hit single, “Lost in Japan,” became a real-life thing!
First thing’s first — we’ve gotta dive into how he could’ve played the lead in Love, Simon. Shawn hit up Elvis Duran‘s show earlier this week, where he made a major reveal telling the host that, YES, he did almost audition for Nick Robinson‘s part in the movie!
“I would’ve loved to,” Shawn revealed. “Unfortunately, timing didn’t work out, but that would’ve been amazing! Especially watching last night, Nick just did an incredible job.”
So basically, we can start getting excited that, one day soon, Shawn Mendes will definitely become the next big movie star? It appears he’s already halfway there, considering just last year we found out that Shawn’s set to star in an upcoming movie musical titled Summer of Love… so we have that to look forward to.
Shawn also admitted he was having a hard time relaxing while watching the movie due to the fact that his new songs would be dropping. He even some deets about the second single “Lost in Japan,” which was released just last night.
“I had this dream that I was lost in this country and I woke up the next day and we had this cool piano part and the song was birthed,” he told Billboard.
Not only that, Shawn revealed that the two tracks he’s released recently are a great hint as to what the album will be like. He said, “I think people are gonna think on Thursday that it’s gonna be a rock album, and then on Friday, they’re gonna have no idea what’s going on and it’s awesome.”
So get excited, Mendes Army — Shawn is just getting started!

Zendaya Shares a Thrilling Teaser from New HBO Series Euphoria
It’s official! HBO has picked up a brand new teen drama starring none other than Zendaya and honestly, it sounds like the next Degrassi. Why? Well, first of all, it’s being produced by Drake, so that’s already giving us MAJOR Degrassi vibes. Not to mention it’s a drama that takes place in a high school setting where students navigate through life and high school, all while learning about themselves. Sound familiar?
After filming the pilot for the show Euphoria, HBO has decided to pick it up for a 10 episode series! The show is a high school drama based on the 2012 Israeli series by the same name. It follows a group of high school students as they navigate sex, drugs, trauma, identity, social media, love and friendship. See what we meant about how it could be the next Degrassi?
It is said that Zendaya will be playing the role of a student named Rue who is apparently a lying, 17-year-old girl who is addicted to drugs. But, Z isn’t the only actress on the cast. The Spider-Man: Homecoming star is starring alongside Maude Apatow, Brian “Astro” Bradley, Eric Dane and Sydney Sweeney on the show.
No word yet on when Euphoria is set to air, but Zendaya along with Executive Producer Drizzy Drake have been teasing fans with little bits and pieces from the show to get them hyped.
The actress posted a GIF teaser of the show on her Instagram:
While Drake tweeted out the same gif with a different message.
side effects include #EUPHORIA. coming soon @Zendaya @A24 @HBO pic.twitter.com/xAaYg1Edks
— Drizzy (@Drake) July 30, 2018
A gif isn’t much, but we’re still pretty excited for this show. Soooo, can y’all give us a little more than just a 3-second GIF? We need more!

Avalanche Advisory
A BACKCOUNTRY AVALANCHE WARNING has been issued through the National Weather Service for the Turnagain Pass area and surrounding mountains. Another round of rain, snow and wind will keep the avalanche danger pegged at HIGH again today. Large natural avalanches are expected at all elevations while this storm system persists. Travel is not recommended in avalanche terrain. If choosing to play in the flats, make sure to steer well clear of gullies and the bottom of steep slopes in the event an avalanche releases above you.
Hiking in Portage Valley: Beware: avalanches occurring at the higher elevations can send large amounts of debris well into valley bottoms and cover snow-free hiking trails. Avoid trails that cross under avalanche paths.
Summit Lake: Travel in avalanche terrain is not recommended. Read the Saturday Summit Summary HERE.
There will be intermittent traffic delays Tuesday April 4, on the Seward Highway for avalanche hazard reduction work. Avalanche Crews will be conducting avalanche hazard reduction from Portage Glacier Road-MP100. Expect traffic delays up to 1 hour. Tuesday (4/4/2017) 10am-2pm
We are very sad to report there was a 4 year old girl from North Pole who died yesterday after being buried in a roof avalanche on Sunday. Our thoughts and sincere condolences are with the family and friends at this difficult time.
The potential dangers of roof avalanches hits close to home for the CNFAIC. Jeff Nissman, one of the founding members of the CNFAIC, was killed in a roof avalanche in 2004. Please see yesterday's article by Craig Medred on roof designs, and a bit of history, HERE - it is very worth the read. Roof avalanches have been occurring over the past week in Girdwood due to warm temperatures and rain. Be aware that roofs will continue to shed with more rain today and into this coming week.
Today we will see the brunt of the third storm to impact the area since March 27th. Winds are currently gale force from the East along ridgetops and .75-1" of rain has fallen overnight up to 1,000'. For snow, this equates to the higher elevations accumulating between 1-2+ feet; the mountain landscape will have a much different look when skies finally clear. Another spike in natural avalanche activity is expected today and paths that have already released may be reloading and release again. Storm snow avalanches may also step down into weak older layers in the pack, creating an even larger slide. Add warm temperatures and rain to the mix and there is no question, avalanche terrain should be avoided.
How much load is on the old weak surface from March? Storm totals (March 27 - 6am April 4th):
Turnagain Pass: 3.0" of H2O, 42+" of snow at upper elevations
Girdwood Valley: 4.2" of H2O, 50+" of snow at upper elevations
Summit Lake: 1.1" of H2O, 12-15" of snow at upper elevations
Large amounts of debris are running to valley bottoms during this storm cycle. Thank you to Turner Pahl for sending in this photo from the north side of the Skookum Valley (just below the toe of the Skookum Glacier). We are unsure of when this specific avalanche released but the photo was taken yesterday.
Again, if choosing to brave the roads and parking lots and play in the flats, please remeber to stay well away from slopes and runout zones - debris can run further than you think during storms like this!

The rain/snow line has climbed from near sea level yesterday to 1,000' overnight, possibly up to 1,500' in places. Although we already saw a widespread natural wet slab cycle at 1,500' on April 1st, we could see another one again today as another round of rain on snow is expected at the lower elevations. Hopefully the visibility will be good enough to see some of the action happening, but as is often the case, much goes unseen.
Snow pit at 2,000' at Turnagain Pass on Sunburst, April 2nd. Note the wet layers up to 2,000', they only become wetter at the lower elevations where we are expecting wet avalanches.

Prior to this storm cycle the snowpack consisted of many weak layers of facets and buried surface hoar. As mentioned above, avalanches releasing in the storm snow have the potential to 'step down' into old layers where snowpack tests are still showing propagation potential. Today's strong winds and precipitation are likely to tip in the balance in the upper elevations and we could see an avalanche breaking in the mid-pack or near the ground, with crown depths over 6' and running the entire length of a slide path.
Obscured skies filled the region yesterday with light flurries and rain to 100' before the main portion of the storm moved in late in the day. Most of the action is from overnight when ridgetop winds picked up to the 40's and 50's mph with gusts in the 80's from the East. Over 1" of rain fell to 1,000' at Turnagain Pass with .75 in the Girdwood Valley. This equates to 1-2+' of snow at the upper elevations over the past 24-hours. Temperatures have been warm and fluctuating - sea level upper 30'sF, 2,000' the lower 30's F, ridgetops in the mid 20'sF.
Today, we should see continued precipitation with .6" of rain below 1,000' and 6-10" of snow above 1,500'. Tonight another .25 of water is expected. The rain/snow line is tough to forecast and it could drop to 500' and even lower if colder air slides in. Ridgetop winds will remain strong in the 30's and up to 40mph from the East with higher gusts. Temperatures should remain warm, up to 40F at sea level, in the 30's at the middle elevations and 20's F along ridgelines.
This storm looks to stall out and churn through tomorrow and into Thursday bringing continued, but lighter, precipitation and strong Easterly )

The Ozark Visitor
Events and Activities Calendar

New students at College of the Ozarks participate in week-long orientation
POINT LOOKOUT, MO. — New students at College of the Ozarks experienced a week-long orientation to launch the spring semester last week, Jan. 8-14. The event, called Character Camp, featured times of community service.
Character Camp provides an intensive orientation to the College and clearly outlines what is expected of students. The program is also designed to develop character in students.
During the week, 134 incoming students were assigned to one of 14 groups, called “families.” Each family was led by two upperclassman who model the character expected of a C of O student. These “moms and pops” served as leaders and mentors to the “kids” in their families throughout the week.
“Being a Character Camp pop is one of those experiences I will always remember,” said senior Caden Peterson. “I love Character Camp because of the community it instills in each student.”
During Character Camp, students participated in community service projects at the following locations: Riley’s Treasures, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Branson Parks and Recreation Department, and the YMCA, to name a few.
Peterson and his partner, senior Chantel Martin, took their family to Riley’s Treasures, where they worked to prepare the store for the upcoming year.
“Character Camp is my favorite week because it’s another opportunity College of the Ozarks has given me to pour God’s love into others,” Martin said.
“Community service strengthens our bond as a family. We have a job to do, and we’re going to do it well,” Martin said. “We worked together and had a fun time.”
Character Camp also included activities such as a challenge course where students learned the value of teamwork, special speakers, time at Fritz’s Adventure, chapel services, “family” time, and advisor time.
Each incoming student wrote a “Reflections of Christ-like Character” essay. The essay is a requirement for students and is evaluated by various members of the College. Essays are judged on relevance, clarity, depth, and accuracy.
Throughout this coming semester, the “families” will reunite three different times to discuss progress and the “moms and pops” will encourage the incoming students by walking alongside of them in this new chapter of life. One of these “family” reunions will involve another community service project.
Vowing to honor
On the last night of Character Camp, all the families gathered for a special dinner called the Honor school year.
“It is also an opportunity for the families.”.16.18 –
