When Jesus related the parable of the good and faithful servant in Matthew, I believe one of His points was to emphasize the value of little things. So often we tend to think of what is spiritual or important in grandiose terms, but in this parable, as well as in the life of Jesus, we see that the little things were often what concerned Him. I believe there was no greater thing my friend could have done with her time that day than to minister to her mother-in-law. She won't get her name in the paper for it; in fact, no one much will ever know. But Jesus does, and for our faithfulness in little things, He says, "Enter into the joy of the Master."

en | N/A | N/A | Purbasari & The Disguised Monkey, Lutung Kasarung
Lutung Kasarung is a famous legend from West Java, about two sisters with totally different character, and rivalries.
The Great Tapa, was a King who led a kingdom in West Java for a long time. He was getting old and therefore wanted to choose a successor. But unfortunately, he had no son. He thought of choosing one of his daughters, Purbararang and Purbasari. But it wasn't an easy choice.
Put?" Purbararang pouted. "You'll find out when Purbasari has replaced me," The Great Tapa "Is there something wrong?" asked Indrajaya. Indrajaya is Purbararang's future husband. "I'mg!" ri's'n't want to scratch it, but she just couldn'ri's body. "What happened to you?" asked Purbararang, pretending to be concerned. "I don't" Purbasari answered. Purbararang shook her head. "You must have done something really awful. You've been punished by the gods!"?" P?" P.
One night, on a full moon, the monkey took Purbasari to a valley. There is a pond with hot spring water. The monkey suddenly spoke, "The water of this pond will heal your skin," he said. Purbasari was surprised, "You can talk? Who are you?" she asked. "You'll find out, in time," the monkey said. Purbasari didn't want to force the monkey. She then walked to the pond. She bathed there. After a few hours, Purbasari walked out of the pond. She was shocked to see her face reflected on the clear pond water. Her face was beautiful again, with smooth and clean skin. Purbasari observed her entire body. There were no traces of any skin ailments. "I'm cured! I'm cured!" Purbasari shouted in joy. She quickly offered thanks to the gods and also to the monkey.
The news of Purbasari's condition quickly spread to the kingdom, irritating Purbararang. She then accompanied by Indrajaya go to the woods to see Purbasari. Purbasari asked if she would be allowed to go home. Purbararang said she would let Purbasari return to the palace if Purbasari's hair were longer than hers. Purbararang then let her hair down. It was so long, it almost touched the ground. But it turned out that Purbasari's hair was twice longer than Purbararang's hair.
"Fine, so your hair is longer than mine." Purbararang admitted. "Butine?" said Purbararang as she walked toward Indrajaya. Purbasari felt miserable. She didn't have a future husband yet. So, without much thought, she pulled the black monkey beside her.'"I'ere's a girl who would be willing to be my wife," said the young man.
Finally, Purbararang gave up. She accepted Purbasari as the queen, and also confessed everything she had done. "Please forgive me. Please don't punish me," Purbararang said, asking for forgiveness. Instead of being angry, Purbasari smiled. "I forgive you, sis," she said. Soon after, Purbasari become queen. Beside her was the handsome prince, the former monkey known as Lutung Kasarung.
This legend has many lessons to be learnt, one of them is that when you are young, you should listen to your parents as they are the ones who know who you are and what is your character. The other message is that if you are kind to other, regardless their appearance they will be kind to you as well; do not judge people by their look.

en | N/A | N/A | D attorney’s website, the answer to that question is no. You may be of the same opinion as many people who are going through a divorce: that their spouse is someone who they feel that they will never again be able to talk to or relate with. Communication, it goes without saying, can be a huge barrier to being able to having a successful marriage.
Here is the part of today’s blog post where I share with you some information that may come as a surprise. Most divorces in Texas never see the inside of the courtroom. That’s right- the image in your mind of you and your ex-spouse yelling at one another over the banging gavel of the judge is likely to be just that- an image in your mind.
Most Texas divorces settle Mediation is where you and your spouse select a third-party attorney to help you all negotiate a settlement agreements. Many folks going through a divorce will go to multiple sessions of mediation during a divorce case. The first session will occur before a potential temporary orders hearing, and the second mediation session will occur before your case is scheduled for a trial.
If you can reach a settlement (even a partial settlement) a Mediated Settlement Agreement (MSA) will be drafted by the mediator which reflects the nature of your settlement. One of your attorneys will then be selected to take those agreements and draft an order- temporary or final- for you and your spouse to live by. You cannot go back on your word or attempt to change what is included in the MSA. Waking up the next morning and frantically calling your attorney to tell him that you are having second thoughts about your settlement will do you no good.
A huge part of being able to successfully negotiate with your spouse- a person with whom you are likely not that happy with at the moment- is preparation. In yesterday’s blog we discussed how organization and being intentional with your actions during a divorce are both keys to your success. Today we will continue to discuss themes related to preparedness, organization and intentionality. This time we will do with within the context of negotiations with your spouse.
Wandering through your divorce is not a good plan. In fact, it’s not really a plan at all. Yes, you have likely hired an attorney. Yes, he or she will do their best to guide you through the case and to help you make good decisions. Hopefully you will have selected an attorney who has the heart of a teacher so that not only will you know things about your case but that you will understand the “why” that accompanies every decision made in your divorce case.
Every divorce case has different phases. You need to know where you are in your case so that you can negotiate better with your spouse. Your attorney will help you on this part, as well, but if you are hammering your spouse on what you are going to do with the house- and your case is barely a week old- then you are losing out on the opportunity to negotiate and discuss more relevant issues to your current phase of the case. You’ll get to the house- just not after one week in the divorce.
Assets and debts are two subjects that you need to be knowledgeable of. I have represented clients on either ends of the “knowledge spectrum” when it comes to personal finances for the family. Some folks are the one in the marriage who pays the bills, tracks the budget, keeps up with the investments and is generally the more “accountable” spouse when it comes to issues related to money.
On the other hand we have spouses who take a backseat on these issues and let the other spouse do the driving. These folks usually have little to no interest on issues related to money. It could also be that their spouse has, on purpose or by accident, made it very difficult for he or she to gain access to the family finances. This is not a good thing and can significantly hamper that spouse from getting a feel for an important area of their lives.
One basic concept that you need to be knowledgeable of is that during the course of your marriage, both assets and debts were obtained by you and your spouse. An asset is anything that has a positive monetary value. Investments vehicles, etc. would all count as assets. Debts aremortgages, car notes, personal loans and other things of that nature. Your assets minus your debts equals your personal net worth.
You need to know where you stand with your net worth, your assets and your debts before you ever begin to negotiate with your spouse about any subject related to your divorce. Your personal finances impact every area of your life- even issues related to your children. Without knowledge of what household bills are, what your debt share is going to be and how much income you need to run a household, you wouldn’t be able to negotiate well for child support, spousal maintenance or anything else in your case.
The same rule applies to your community estate as I just discussed with you concerning your assets and liabilities. You cannot possibly negotiate well when it comes to the division of your community estate unless you actually know what is considered to be community property in your divorce.
If you need to know more about the state of your family’s finances then your attorney should submit discovery requests upon your spouse. That means he will need to turn over to you information, answers to questions, and documents related to your family’s finances. If you have been left in the cold for much of the marriage when it comes to personal finances this is especially helpful and necessary.
At the beginning of a Texas divorce it is customary to exchange a list called an inventory/appraisement with your spouse. An inventory and appraisement lists what each party believes to be the state of the family’s finances in terms of property owned. Each item of property should be listed along with the spouse’s estimated value for that property. You should submit this to your spouse, and he to you, prior to mediation. That way you will know what assumptions your spouse is making when settlement proposals are being made.
Both methods- an inventory/appraisement and well as formal discovery requests- should be made in your case. One will give you a generalized idea of what is happening in your family’s finances and the other will give you a more detailed perspective. Negotiations regarding the finances of your family without these crucial steps being taken care of are destined to not be successful.
What to do if you, your spouse or both of you own a business?
If either you or your spouse are the owner of a small business, that is a factor that could complicate your divorce a great deal. The key part of negotiations on a business is determining a value for that business. There are multiple methods to estimate the value of a business. I do not have the space to go over those methods here, but we do have prior blog posts that can guide you in this area if you are interested.
What you need to know for today’s blog post is that you need to get a professional to come into your case and provide a detailed, objective analysis on the value of that business. There is no real way to divide up an asset like this fairly unless you have a professional come in and help you determine its value. Again, negotiations cannot be fair when one (or both) of you is not knowledgeable about the actual value of the asset you are negotiating upon.
After you have a good estimate of what the business is worth, you next business after the divorce. Like the family homand your spouse can negotiate on when it comes to determining a fate for the family business.
One option would be to have the spouse who runs the business keep it and to pay the other spouse in other community assets an equal amount of the value for the business. Let’s say that the business is appraised to be worth $500,000. If the whole of that value is community property, you could be paid $250,000 in other property in order to allow your spouse to remain the owner and operator of the business. Everyone wins in that case.
Next, the business could be sold and the proceeds from that sale could be split proportionately between you and your spouse. This would mean two things: that you would need to negotiate on the percentage split that each of you stand to receive out of the sale and you would need to find a willing buyer for a business. This is not always easy to do-especially during a relatively short period like a divorce. If you and your spouse both are involved in the business and you have decided that it is just not tenable for both of you to remain involved together, this may be the best option for you to take advantage of.
The last option that I wanted to discuss with you today would be to maintain ownership of the business between the two of you, and operate moving forward as 50/50 partners. If you absolutely cannot find a buyer for the business, absolutely want the business to stay in the family or simply cannot part with the business this is an option to consider.
Many times I find that spouses who work well together but just do not want to be married any longer can find success in this option. I would advise that you do some thinking about how working with your ex-spouse would impact both the profitability and the day to day operations of a business. If you think running the business with your ex-spouse could somehow harm the business then I would think twice before selecting this option.
If you own a business that is fairly sizeable (as in, you own real estate, have employees, own equipment associated with the business) then it is likely that your business represents (along with your home and other investments) a huge slice of your net-worth pie. As a result, you may not own other property that could fairly pay your spouse off for giving up their share of the business to you.
If this is what you are facing, then you may need to agree to pay your spouse in installments over the course of many years in order to pay them their fair share of the business. Or, you could agree to pay him or her spousal maintenance for a set period of time until the value is paid in full.
We will pick up tomorrow right where we left off today by discussing more ways to intelligently negotiate with your spouse during a Texas divorctls. |

en | N/A | N/A | Sen. Mary Kathryn "Heidi" Heitkamp is the dirtiest and most ruthless campaigner that North Dakotans have seen. Her East Coast donors have spent millions of dollars to help her portray herself as a good old North Dakota small-town girl. But just as much time, money and effort is expended in smearing and destroying anyone who might challenge her political power.
Last week, when Rep. Kevin Cramer was still thought to be running for the Senate, Heitkamp's allies in Washington launched a smear campaign to label Cramer as "unethical." The complaint was that Cramer had used money that his campaign had raised to pay his family members who were working for the campaign. This is not taxpayer money we're talking about but rather campaign donations being used to pay people working for the campaign. There is absolutely no merit to this complaint whatsoever, but it served Heitkamp's purpose of putting Cramer's name next to the word "unethical" in a few news stories.
This is typical for any campaign involving Heitkamp. Her name may never be on any official complaint, but her supporters will be out there making up dirt and doing their best to create the appearance of scandal where none exists.
Anyone who stands between Heitkamp and a political office that she wants had better expect to have their reputation assaulted every week by the dirtiest campaigners this state has ever seen. Hopefully 2018 is the year North Dakotans will see through this charade and retire Heitkamp from the Senate.

en | N/A | N/A | "Bones” - Chloe Rodgers | Review
I never knew what to expect from Chloe Rodgers’ new single “Bones.” Whenever I thought I understood or knew the vibe, something came around that completely threw me off. Rodgers’ vocals, soundtrack, and lyrics, while all very different, work extremely well together. Rodgers’ co-write Alex Starling said that "Bones."
“Bones” begins with a musical intro, one of the longest I’ve listened to in a while. The initial drum beats stay for all fourteen seconds of the intro with additional beats joining in. They start off slow with faster beats being added on, evoking the sense that something imminent, important was about to happen. I was beginning to expect mainly instruments with the occasional vocals similar to “Lifted” by Ellyn Woods. However, once Rodgers begins with her first line “sleeping for the tenth time,” she rarely pauses.
One line that stood out to me was the paradoxical nature of her lyric: “underneath a layer of ice that could keep me warm.” While initially, it makes sense: warmth coming from being under a layer of something, like a blanket. Re-listening, Rodgers' choice of ice being that object makes little sense: ice is cold and even if the layer is thick, it still won’t keep one warm. Whether Rodgers’ lyric has a deeper meaning about hardships and connections to the message Starling states, I feel.
Rodgers' biggest inspiration is Thom Yorke. She marvels at how “You know immediately that his lyrics have hidden depths, but the deeper you dig, the further you are from getting to what they might mean.” Her understanding of Yorke’s lyrics, I feel is what I’m understanding from her lyrics: the metaphors and images she uses are really cool and seem to have a deep significance, but it’s not clear what that significance is. When I try to understand, I feel I’m grasping at straws.
Rodgers says of her lyrics: “[they].” Her lyrics, especially her chorus, have a dark tone and natural imagery. The natural imagery, excluding digging up bones, give her song a more relaxing, beautiful vibe. The images of digging up bones, on the other hand, starkly contrast it with a darker, ominous vibe. Even the soundtrack, while up-beat (light), has fast, deeper beats (darker).
The song ends abruptly, similar to the abrupt new meanings and understandings that pull the carpet out from under the listeners or, at least, my feet. I thought I understood, but I never really did.
Rodgers's talent in creating such a beautifully sung and written song that is so unexpected but it’s unexpectedness never detracts from appreciating her song is amazing.
Chloe Rodgers is a singer-songwriter from Nottingham, United Kingdom. She got her start after accidentally winning Notts X Factor, leading to a series of shows and videos that got the attention of music producers. She was then a part of the Twenty Committee project. Rodger’s debut headliner concert will be taking place this November 5th at Nottingham’s Bodega. She also has an EP “Back To The Quay” out on November 26th. |

Buster Mathis Jr. was ranked 10th when he got the chance to step in to the biggest stage of his time...a fight with Mike Tyson!You'll hear a little more about that in the clip!
Our order of business right now is to help Buster get the word out about his event coming up at the VFW on Apple Avenue this Saturday Feb 6th!Tickets are $25 and you can get the at All Signs, Racquets, The VFW and more!You can also ask the fighters on the card about tickets and then join the fun Saturday night!
It's going to be a great show, but more over, Buster is out to help kids beat bullying!Boxing is a great confidence builder and a great form to learn for self defense if ever needed. Boxing teaches discipline, sacrifice and persistence. It's a great art and with the expansion of MMA into mainstream popularity it's not what it once was, but it is still one of my favorite things to watch!
Have a listen to the interview below and try not to pay too close attention to my geek's outlook on meeting Buster and hear what he has to say about the event, his career and how kids today can benefit from the years of experience he brings to Muskegon to put on a show!
What a guy huh?I loved how he talked so much about his dad so I thought I'd wrap things up with another moment from boxing lore, and to be honest....I'll keep the story we shared off camera about Ali being at his house when Buster was in the 11th grade at Grandville High School. Imagine going back to school and telling that story?Make sure you check out the MMA Fights this Saturday at the VFW on Apple!Buster will be there and you'll find too, he's a great guy with a great message! |

en | N/A | N/A | Shakespeare want to rewrite history?
Macbeth: Good question, lad. The reason is that Shakespeare was aiming his plays towards his more wealthy patrons, some of whom were distant relatives of the people he characterized in said plays.
Student: What about Macbeth's wife?
Macbeth: The Lady Macbeth? Yes, she was pretty badly maligned by Shakespeare. Her name was Gruoch, and she was a very warm and caring person, and a devoted wife, not some treacherous shrew like in the play.
Student: You sound like you used to know her.
Macbeth: No, of course not. It's just that I've researched these people to the point where, in a sense, I do know them. Of course, I've also known some women like the fictional Lady Macbeth. My last ex-wife, for instance.
~ The Hunted ~
"Bring forth men-children onlyWill it not be received ... " Eugene made an over-theatrical gesture with one hand, enunciating the lines perfectly.
Iris whispered in a sing-song voice: " ... and used their very daggers / That they have done it?"
Joanna hushed her, and attempted to listen attentively as Brenda recited Lady Macbeth's lines. She could not fail to notice Iris' hand waving in time to the closing couplet, and glared at the student assistant director.
"Thank you both," said Joanna. "And thank you all. The parts will be handed out at four on my office door. Everyone will have something to do. There are no small parts ... "
"Only small actors," chorused the aspiring thespians lounging on and around the stage. Joanna sighed and waved them away. "Get."
When everyone else had left the theatre, Iris said, "By opening night, I'll be able to recite the entire play."
"You might have to. Shall we decide who's playing whom now?"
"I've been jotting down suggestions." Iris handed over her clipboard. Joanna had to admit, she was impressed. Relativity theory may have left her in the dust, but Iris was turning out to be a fine assistant director.
"These look good. But, I have to ask, Eugene as Macbeth?"
She stopped cold, as Iris went rigid. The younger woman said slowly, "I'll walk you to the stage door."
"Right." In silence, the two went backstage. Iris held the door open. The early October air was warm, but held an icy threat just the same, as Joanna walked quickly around Miller Theatre three times. It would be a hard winter.
She nodded to passing students on the last leg of her walk. She turned her head to the left and spat into a bed of late- blooming azaleas. Iris opened the door on her third knock.
Superstitions were silly, but it never hurt to be careful.
The sun lay red and bloated on the horizon, taking its own sweet time to set. Elisa stood, her face resting on her elbows, overlooking the city.
"Just like old times, hmm?" she said to the inert form of Goliath, frozen in a snarl. She'd spent countless evenings waiting for his and Angela's and Bronx's awakenings during their long voyage via Avalon Cruise Lines, International.
A flicker of sun remained, and then ...
Cracks formed in Goliath's stone shell, splintering outwards in a crazy pattern. She took a step back and covered her face. He stretched and roared, casting shards around her. From below, she could hear the awakening roars of the others.
Brooklyn cursed. "Another one?"
Elisa nodded solemnly. "We thought we had a pattern to the crimes. The thief, or thieves, have been striking every first Tuesday and second Monday of the month. We had extra people posted at every museum in the city."
"Did any of them see anything out of the ordinary?" asked Broadway.
"No," said Elisa. "Because this time, our thief didn't strike a museum." She pulled out a folded piece of paper, hot pink. Photocopied on it was an announcement: "Scottish Antiquities, October 25 - November 28." There was a grainy picture in the center, just below the tastefully small Columbia U. banner. She'd already circled the item in question with a thin black marker. She passed it to Goliath, who gave it to Angela, who gave it to Broadway. Ariana pulled at Broadway's wing until he let her and Graeme take a look as well.
"The object in question is a scroll."
"A magical scroll?" asked Angela.
Elisa shrugged. "I asked around. Maybe, maybe not. The display suggested it might contain 'spells of revelation,' but it also said it might be a recipe for haggis."
"That makes seventeen thefts," mused Hudson.
"And nothing connecting them except for rumors of curses. I won't be able to convince anyone but Matt that this one is even part of the same case, but I think it's a clue." She expelled a breath. "And it's about time, too."
Angela said, "Still no other leads?"
Elisa shook her head. "Not for us, and if the FBI or Interpol have made headway, they're not talking." She didn't want to ask, felt like a heel for asking, but this was her job. "You're certain Demona has nothing to do with this?"
Angela said nothing, the tightening of her lips saying all that was needed.
The paper returned to Goliath. He folded it with the utmost of care, reminding her again that he came from a time long before the printing press, when paper and the words it sheltered were beyond price. Even offensively pink paper was a treasure.
"Be assured," he said, "that we will keep watch for this thief. He cannot elude us forever." He handed the photocopy back to her. Idly, she unfolded it again, trying to make out any of the writing on the paper, knowing it was far too rough a picture. Not for the first time, she wondered if a photocopy of a spell would have the same effect. Visions of the Grimorum being hawked from the corner newsstand danced in her head as she slipped the paper back into her pocket.
Owen appeared beside them, a respectful distance away. "There is a call inside for Angela." He stood to the side as she walked past. Moments later, the rest of the clan joined her. "Make a note: gargoyle culture does not include telephone privacy," Elisa teased as she followed them.
Angela's face held the mixture of apprehension and eagerness Elisa had come to associate with her whenever Demona's name was mentioned. Sure enough, before she hung up, she said into the receiver, "Yes, Mother. I'll be by. I love you, too. Good-bye."
At the word "Mother," Goliath had clenched his fists; whether he was aware of the action or not, Elisa didn't know.
"Father, I need to go see Mother before I return from patrol."
Several emotions crossed Goliath's face. To his credit, he said only, "I see."
"You're not going to be angry about this."
"Good!" she said, smiling brightly. She took Broadway's arm. "Let's go patrol."
When the others had gone, Elisa held Goliath's arm, keeping him in the room. "She'll be all right."
"As long as Angela is safe, I will be fine. Demona will not allow anything to happen to her." The words were forced, like something he'd made himself think by effort of will.
"Yeah," she said quietly, and having nothing else to say, offered him what little comfort she could in her silence.
"Are you sure you're going to be okay?" asked Broadway nervously. They were two blocks from Destine Manor. She could see the top of the building poking gray through the still green trees.
"I'll be fine." She tried not to |

en | N/A | N/A | Those four words are quickly making the rounds due to a viral hashtag bringing awareness to an important topic: intimate partner violence.
#IAmNotOk is now a home for the stories and from around the world, and Wood’s role in launching the conversation as an out bisexual woman is pivotal. It’s about time that we committed to elevating the stories and experiences of survivors of IPV—especially those who are people of color, LGBTQ+ and non-binary. Too often, even in social justice movementslose their seat at the table.
Today, I can’t help but think about three survivors: Wood, a bisexual woman; Rowland, a Black woman; and Cardi B, a Black Latina woman. Today, I can’t help but wonder how many more queer people and people of color, how many more celebrities and everyday people are not okay.
How many people can actually say that they are survivors? Just as Tarana Burke did when she launched the #MeToo Movement, we must take on the cycle on intimate partner violence in public and center those who are impacted, especially those at the margins, and confront the reality that many are still suffering.
The time is now to break the silence and elevate stories from the margins and from outside the typical narratives we’re more comfortable with.

en | N/A | N/A | Financial Woes, Layoffs Plaguing D.C. Schools
https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/financial-woes-layoffs-plaguing-d-c-schools
And, finally tonight, we close out our weeklong series on the high-profile campaign to changeThis week, we have been revisiting key developments in this story, as told by the "NewsHour".
On a Thursday morning in October, six weeks into the school year, members of Washington, D.C.'s, teachers union gathered to send a message.
Their message was for D.C. Schools Chancellor Michelle Rhee, who had unexpectedly laid off 229 teachers to close a budget shortfall.
We have been totally disrespected. We have been treated like we don't matter.
Can't take no more. Can't take no more.
EVE MCCAREY:
I was laid off on Friday. On Saturday, I look online on the newspaper, Washington Post, and it's all about, oh, well, it's good thing we got rid of the incompetent, lazy teachers who don't plan lessons.
The city council took up the issue weeks later, alleging that Rhee overstepped her authority in making the layoffs, and engineered the budget shortfall in order to get rid of teachers she didn't want.
VINCENT GRAY:
So, what is the council supposed to do at that point?
My understanding is that I do have the authority.
Well, before you move to your understanding, I am just talking about the law.
Michelle Rhee has been no stranger to controversy since she took control of D.C.'s public schools over two years ago. She's closed 25 schools, replaced almost half her principals, and battled the teachers union over a new contract. But some believe Rhee's latest actions pose a threat to her larger reform effort.
Even as teachers across the country were losing jobs, Rhee hired 934 new teachers between spring and fall. That's double the number D.C. usually adds. But, by fall, the picture had changed. In October, Rhee declared a budget shortfall of nearly $44 million, with nearly half coming from mid-summer cuts by the city council. Then came the layoffs, called a reduction in force, or RIF, followed by an explosion of accusations.
GEORGE PARKER:
I think that, the way this RIF was conducted, there are going to be many lawsuits.
George Parker is president of the teachers union.
I think, to some degree, there might have been an intentional effort to target some teachers to get rid of them. And the way you do that is that you go out and you hire additional teachers, because, somewhere down the line, you intend to use those teachers to replace certain targeted teachers.
Fueling Parker's suspicions are public comments by Rhee and her team. Early last year, her head of professional development spoke with us about Washington's teachers.
CHERYL KREHBIEL, District of Columbia Public Schools: Fifty percent don't have the right mind-set, and there's a possibility that more of them don't have the content knowledge to do their job.
And Rhee has been open about her operating style since our first interview two years ago.
Are you a rule-breaker?
I think what I am is somebody who is focused on the end result that I think needs to happen. So, if there are rules standing in the way of that, I will question those rules. I will bend those rules.
At an education conference two weeks after the layoffs, I asked Rhee and her boss, Mayor Adrian Fenty, about the controversy.
In D.C., we actually cannot do that. By law, we can only move a personnel action form forward if there is a vacancy at a school level, and then there is a budget to support that…
Why are you RIFing then? You're RIFing for budget reasons?
Yes. These are terminations that were a result of a budget reduction that we had to take.
Because Rhee tied the layoffs to budget pressures, she was not bound by the existing teachers contract. To make the reduction in force, principals used a formula devised by Rhee, in which seniority counted for just 5 percent.
What typically happens in a school district is, you know that 250 people have to go. It's last in, first out, right? And that's just the way that it goes. But that's not the way that it should go.
In order to change the system permanently, to alter the way principals hire and fire teachers, Rhee needs a new teachers contract. The union is now suing to overturn the layoffs. Despite the standstill, Rhee has some backing on the city council, which has oversight of the schools.
JACK EVANS, Council of the District of Columbia: I don't believe she over-hired, with the intent then of firing teachers thatd. And, even if it did, so what? You know, Michelle Rhee is in charge of the schools.
But even supporters, like Jack Evans, are worried.
JACK EVANS:
And, yet, we are sitting in a chamber where the tensions couldn't be higher. We cannot continue to have this kind of craziness.
MICHAEL A. BROWN, Council of the District of Columbia: You clearly don't trust a lot of the stakeholders. It's obvious the stakeholders don't trust your office. So, how do we repair this?
I will fully do my part, to the extent that people have suggestions about how we move forward. Some of the difficult decisions that we make will indeed cause some people to be unhappy. But we know we have to push forward on those decisions because they are right for schools and kids.
Rhee remains confident that, in the long run, results will prove her right. |

en | N/A | N/A | ECS Botanics Holdings (ASX: ECS) has announced a new partnership with Tasmanian natural products business Essential Oils of Tasmania (EOT) to fast-track development and capitalise on commercial opportunities in the hemp and medicinal cannabis market.
It will also see the pair engage in research and development programs to develop finished products that incorporate Tasmanian hemp and essential oils.
“We are in the midst of a huge consumer shift toward using botanical extracts, including cannabis, for nutrition, medicine, supplements, cosmetics, flavouring, sanitiser and cleaning applications and we are seeing strong growth in both the cannabis extract market as well as essential oils, which is an US$8 billion market,” he said.
“Cannabis is no longer viewed as a ‘one trick pony’, containing an abundance and array of ids,” Mr Keach added.
ECS said Tasmania is expected to be a “strong participant” in the global essential oils industry as its geographical location, “clean green” image and GMO-free status provide a strategic advantage.
“We really do feel our agronomy, extraction and chemical analysis expertise is highly complementary to the development of a cannabis industry in Tasmania and we look forward to working with ECS as they grow their business into the future,” EOT chief executive officer Simon Wells said.
The company also announced in March that its hemp seed oil is now available for sale in Woolworths stores across Australia. |

en | N/A | N/A | an attention-grabbing transparent Blu-Ray case, with sweet reversible cover artwork. On one side, you get the film's theatrical poster, and on the other, the Mondo variant with Tyler Stout's artwork. Inside the case, there's a flyer with a code to access a digital copy, and a 16-page booklet featuring those introductions by Zombie, Neveldine, and Taylor, as well as several full-color photographs from the film. Obsessives should also note that Drafthouse Films Blu-Rays have a numbering scheme; The FP is the 3rd of 3 (the second being Bullhead and the first being Four Lions -- I was told via Twitter that those who own the latter will soon have a way to make their collection uniform).
An audio commentary with Brandon and Jason Trost is a pretty laid-back affair, with the brothers casually chatting about whatever's on-screen, like real folks from The FP appearing on screen, the '80s films the film references, explanations of the film's ridiculous dialogue, and on-set minutia.
No trailers play before the main menu. Both the red-band and green-band original theatrical trailers for The FP is also included.
Look, I'm giving The FP a half a star. There's no question that I didn't like it. It's an offensive, obnoxious movie. Still, I will grant that the extras prove that this is not a case of ineptitude or people who just are obnoxious or stupid. The things that drove me nuts are part of the point. If someone enjoys this movie, it won't be an accident, it will be the oh-so-narrow sensibilities of that viewer aligning with that of the directors. Given that (and the general quality of the A/V and extras on the disc), I'm willing to stop short of slapping the movie with the lowest rating. If you've watched both the green-band and red-band trailers, and you still think this is the movie for you, rent it...with extreme caution. </s> Layered Tortilla Bake

The ‘Nats this year are running from 6 January to 9 January.
Here’s a bit of summernats reminiscence. Back in the late 1980s, I remember getting back from Sydney late, only to find myself stuck in a traffic jam on Antill St trying to cross Northbourne Ave to get home to O’Connor. The summernats were doing their finale cruise … that’s why everything was jammed up. It was a boiling hot night. The spectators along Northbourne would ‘fire’ off their supersoaker at passing cars. Those were the daze. But now, since the ‘nats have been corralled into EPIC I don’t see any problem, with traffic, noise or whatever. Let them be.
Well said. If the people who live here don’t want the event, why is it still held here?
Yes amarooresident3, I know it lost money. Hold the same event in Spring or Summer and it would be a different story.
I did hear it was a bit more kid friendly last year, but I think I will just stay at home and play some banned computer games with my kids.
Nothing fills me with RAGE more than when someone likes something that I don’t like.
HOW DARE ANYONE like summernats. I don’t like it.
Well, actually, Hobart does experience the odd bit of race related drunken tomfoolery. But your point is valid.
On the other hand, if the city is sick of being invaded by wankers, then the fact that the wankers like their party is hardly a reason to let it continue.
As much as I hate and loathe the fuel guzzling smoke belching twits that give Summernats a bad name. The event is as much for the vehicle purists who have invested tens of thousands of dollars+ in their cars this is their Sydney-Hobart race. We can’t all like the same thing or the world would be boring. You don’t see the residents of Hobart bitching about the all night parties in the harbour and surrounding pubs.
Summernats is probably one of the few activities in January that increases occupancy rates in Canberra and also fills the coffers for the ACT, NSW and Victorian Government with speeding and other fines.
Let em have their fun. If you don’t like it move or go to the coast.
I ask, because a few years ago I ran the fuel store at summergnats, and at that time the restrictions placed on fuel onsite were extensive.
Between the firies and environmental people, the organisers had to ensure that all fuel onsite was in the one place, and that that place had quite comprehensive precautions taken with regards to fire risk and spill prevention. For example, only one vehicle at a time could be in the bay actually refueling. That year, it was only really people running methanol or avgas who brought their own fuel, everyone else filled up at the servo.
If the majority of entrants will be filling onsite from drums, either these restrictions must have eased a *lot* or following them will impose a lot of work and cost on the organizers.
@19 I agree with you, most car shows in town cater for all different kinds of demographic. Auto Italia, German Autofest, Shannons Wheels for everything, All Ford Day etc, … Summernats caters for the cars designed for brute horsepower and lunacy and gives them a rather controlled environment to drive them in.
#42 I presume same way as you do at a rally… jerry cans.
Since the petrol station collocated with Epic is currently not in existence, does anyone know how the VB drinking, falcondore driving pooftas summernats participants will fill up without driving their very-not-roadworthy vehicles on a public road?
The deep and visceral loathing of Summernats in some sections of the community brings to mind Pleasantville, USA, or perhaps Dame Edna “it’s so unnecessary!’ These are the same people as those who bitterly opposed popular music festivals when they began in the late 60s/early 70s. Probably still do.
I mean, we are talking about immoral behaviour, noise, strange people from who knows where, litter, traffic problems – hell, this is not a gated community, but only because we can’t get away with it! People who are not exactly like us are not welcome here, it seems.
FWIW, I have a couple of friends who come from Sydney to Summernats every year. They stay in a hotel, and eat at local cafes and restaurants. They are car nuts, and they are tourists, and without people like them the local hotels and eateries would be much worse off. But even if they weren’t, the smug and exclusive views of the Summernats haters are no different from the “is it a boy or a girl? haw, haw’ views of the locals who hated music festivals years ago.
Can’t see many of the Summernats Crowd catching one, though.
I agree with Holden Caufield. Floriade is a royal pain in the neck .. maybe the punters don’t spew on the pavement as much, but trying to avoid hitting them on Commonwealth Avenue because they think they can moesy out into the traffic whenever they like .. argh!
Summernats is the pits. I’m locking myself indoors until Monday.
Lycra clad cyclists?
Love that their “additional parking” is all in Mitchell… where there’s already a major shortage of car parking for people with whom I work, since our employer and the department we support feel that parking is just a luxury we can do without.
In spite of the increase of bogans driving next to my office in the next few days, I’m taking my motorbike.
Driving boganised imported cars down from the inner west of Sydney is the real Australia outside the ACT?
I agree with those who are throwing doubts on the so called financial rewards of Summernats.
From what I can gather, the “participants” are only here for three or four days and the biggest chunk of their money will be spent within the confines of Summernats and therefore at stalls from everywhere else other than Canberra. When the tents are taken down, all that money goes back to Sydney and Melbourne.
They are not here to shop, visit local attractions or dine in nice restaurants. So for those who say they “hardly notice” Summernats, I would say that is my point exactly. Any businesses further south than Civic (with the exception of Fyshwick of course) don’t see a cent.
Of course, let’s not forget the only businesses outside EPIC who rake it in are the brothels and sex shops. The bikie gangs and other organised crime groups who own these establishments must be peeing their pants in delight that the ACT Government actually pays huge amounts for this event to be staged, controlled, and cleaned up at completion while they make a fortune.
The whole thing is a moronic farce and makes me wonder who is in John Stanhope’s pocket so far that he continues to support it. If it makes so much money for the community, let’s see the proof. |
en | N/A | N/A | Taking a slightly longer lunch break, I've finally finished reading N The book is an insightful look into the history of the little things that added up to the British Empire. Many of the events recounted are no longer remembered, least of all in the American public education system. Nonetheless, they are recounted as part of a dynamic sweep across history. The denouement comes in the finaly chapter, "Empire for Sale", and takes into account history from 1916 to 1956, with a brief focus on the two world wars, and more study of the Easter Rebellion, the Amritsar Massacre, and the Suez Canal Criss, and the role these events played in the dissolution of the Empire.
'And keep this up 200 years?' asked he.
Anything, in other words, but take over Mexico, which would have been the British solution.
The point of the book, that America is now at the head of a new sort of imperium (perhaps the "new world order" that President George Herbert Walker Bush had mentioned after the fall of the Soviet Union, but which his son, President George Walker Bush, did the most to realize). This empire is patently not the same type as the British, and less still as the old, short-lived, but very brutal Empire of the Sun. It is quite something else altogether.
As such, it would be useless to heed the words of critics who, when they hear "empire", reflexively hearken back to only he worst excesses of the Age of Imperialism. Rather, this is a chance for liberals of all different stripes to deliver their messages to the world in different ways. Currently the most prominent voices are those that are calling for the spread of democracy and liberty -- the so-called "neoconservatives". They have made clear their intention of building an empire based on liberty, an empire that exists, again, more by influence than by domination.
Unfortunately, so far, the other voices talking about the new age of imperialism are the orphans of Marxism: Those that would seek to impose a statist socialist superstate (probably governed from Brussels); those that would seek to deconstruct the world into smallish socialist states with protective barriers against capitalist states; those that wish to return to the state of affairs as they were six hundred years ago, when China was arguably at its zenith, and the only white people in North America were the Vikings at Newfoundland; and those that would prefer that no authority be allowed to govern at all, including that of the United States over its citizens. |

Аэропорт был построен в 1985 году американской нефтяной компанией Atlantic Richfield Company в связи с разведкой нефти на полуострове Земля Джеймсона, затем продан Гренландии в 1990 году.
Находится в 40 км к юго-востоку от города Иллоккортоормиут (530 жителей), расположенного в устье самого большого фьорда мира Кангертиттивака.
Аэропорт недоступен для автомобильного транспорта, так как отсутствуют наземные дороги, кроме небольшой дороги от здания аэровокзала к морскому порту и небольших технических дорог в окресностях аэропорта. Добраться до Иттоккортоормиита — главного поселения в этом регионе, можно только на вертолёте или на лодке (летом).
В аэропорту работает около 15 сотрудников, которые вынуждены постоянно жить на территории аэропорта.
Из международных рейсов в аэропорту обслуживаются рейсы в Исландию (аэропорт Акюрейри), отдельные чартеры,
Имеется регулярный внутренний рейс Air Greenland в Кулусук и вертолётный рейс к городу Иллоккортоормиут. Вертолёт постоянно размещается в аэропорту, связывая его с вертодромом Иттоккортоормиит и обеспечивая поисково-спасательные операции в окрестностях.
Аэропорт Нерлерит Инаат служит точкой остановки для экспедиций на Землю Джеймсона и в смире — Гренландский национальный парк. Иногда используется для полётов на труднодоступный полуостров Ренланд.
Летом 2004 года аэропорт был местом посадки двух немецких сверхлёгких летательных аппаратов CT2K, выполнявших экспериментальный арктический перелёт.

Телесериалы 2008 года </s> Ралли Швеции 2015 года (официально 63rd Rally Sweden) — второй этап чемпионата мира по ралли 2015 года, проходивший с 12 по 15 февраля. Это 63-ый Ралли Швеции в истории и 39-ый в рамках чемпионата мира. Второй раз в Швеции победил Себастьен Ожье (впервые на шведском этапе дважды смог выиграть "не скандинав"). Свою первую победу на спецучастке одержал украинец Юрий Протасов, а Крис Мик впервые первенствовал на СУ в снежных условиях.
Ход этапа
Этап начался с неожиданной победы на первом спецучастке пилота категории WRC-2 Понтуса Тидеманда. Но в дальнейшем, в пятницу на первые роли вновь вышли пилоты команды Volkswagen Motorsport. Из заметных событий в этот день были только победа на шестом спецучастке Юрия Протасова и вылет на СУ7 Криса Мика, потерявшего из-за этого около трёх минут. Также на седьмом спецучастке возникла техническая проблема у Себастьена Ожье: у него сломались "дворники" (а в дальнейшем по ходу соревнований ожидалось усиление снегопада). Тем не менее, это не стало причиной того, что на девятом допе француз врезался в сугроб и потерял на этом полминуты. В то же время, один из его главных конкурентов и по совместительству напарник Яри-Матти Латвала также не избежал ошибки и вылетел с трассы за 500 метров до финиша спецучастка. Застряла машина Латвалы и только через 8 минут с помощью зрителей он смог продолжить движение. Возможно, финн был бы осторожнее на этом допе, если бы его осведомили о неприятностях Ожье, но по новым прави |

Bicurious in a Long-Term hetero relationship
Started by Kare, January 2

I've been lurking for some time but never got up the nerve to get a profile and type my first post. I guess I've gone through some things in the past year that really made me want to reach out and be a more authentic version of myself by getting the support I craved. Long-story short is that I've had a fascination/curiosity for other women since I was about 9. It became more apparent by the very intimate relationship I shared with a best friend by the time I was 14 (spooning in the same bed, sharing toothbrushes, relying on as a partner, kisses on the cheek). Going through high school was hard enough so I just shoved fantasies and fascinations away. I happened to fall madly in love with a boy when I turned 16. 7 1/2 years later and we are still happily together. It wasn't until about two years ago that he found out I also had a curiosity of being with women. Friends and confidants have been told but I really don't talk about it with anyone. It has become this thing that people may know about me but everybody (including myself) just ignores. I know I am who I am regardless and don't define myself for how I feel about other people but...I want a place where it is known and acknowledged.
Welcome to the site. I think it's great that you want to be a more authentic version of yourself. I hope you find what you are looking for here. |

en | N/A | N/A | Easter is surely primarily a Christian holiday but in the Czech Republic, everybody likes this holiday. Meanwhile Christians mainly cherish resuscitation of Jesus Christ, both believers and non-believers have traditions they keep on top of that. Different regions of Czech country have their specific traditions. Let's have a look at some of them. They are usually pretty awkward but that's the point. Few fun and quirky traditions coming your way!
We don´t know that many girls and women who are in love with Easter. Why? Because most of its fun parts belong to boys and men. On Easter Monday men visit their girlfriends, mothers, daughters, friends, neighbors and more women relatives and acquaintances. They whip them – more or less (but usually more because they can) – with a braided willow or locust tree branches. This is called a willow whip. It is supposed to make all those ladies healthy and happy all year long. OK, sounds reasonable but still… it hurts. As a reward for that they get either something sweet, coloured egg, money or drink. Depends on preferences, age and other standards.
In some regions boys don´t braid willow branches and they "keep it simple". By which we mean they just need water and bucket. For what? They fill a bucket with water and pour it over girls´ and women´s heads. Again this is done for the sake of youth, strength and making women healthy for the upcoming spring season. However, we are not sure this argument is strong enough.
Spring calls for detox. Of mind, body, closet etc. Czech people, and mainly our ancestors, took it very seriously and managed to keep their body "clean" mainly from meat (except fish) and alcohol. Sweets and too salty things were not very heavily eaten as well. On the other hand people are free to eat lentils, bread, cabbage etc. Very simple but amazing and delicious ingredients. This tradition is not that strong at the moment but we know few people who try to detox before Easter food overload. |
en | N/A | N/A | Today it is difficult to manage stress when we are connected to everything and everyone at the click of a button. It becomes nearly impossible to shut down our devices, and in turn, we’re unable to shut down our stress.
As it turns out, stress is a key player in skin damage. There is even a new field – the disciplines of psychology and dermatology aptly coined ‘psychodermatology.’ What psychodermatologists have found is that under duress, the body releases hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. These hormones have been linked to acne, dry skin, and an increase in fine lines and wrinkles. Cortisol has also been linked to the destruction of skin’s collagen and elastin: the result is a decrease in elasticity and firmness.
Stress can also be a source of redness and flushing that over time may damage capillaries. Further, stress puts a damper on the immune system which in turn may exacerbate existing skin problems and make them last longer. Yikes!
Luckily, there are many things you can do to help prevent stress from wrecking havoc on your skin. Skincare products that have powerful, botanically-based healing ingredients such as antioxidants, salicylic acid, and botanical firming agents will help to oppose the damaging effects of stress.
Getting adequate or even extra (!) sleep, acupuncture, massage, and exercise are all important stress fighting tools.
Ultimately, finding ways to combat stress means taking some time out of your day or week to take care of you. If your skin starts to show signs of stress, book a relaxation appointment with yourself immediately!
Don’t know how to relax, we understand. Consider purchasing “The Mindfulness Colouring & Activity Book”. It is a great way to take your foot off the petal and de-stress. We love the Zen Doodle page.

en | N/A | N/A | South Africans are big borrowers and poor savers - expert
Cape Town - Reducing indebtedness and improving savings in South Africa is a major socio-economic challenge, warned MD of Old Mutual’s Mass and Foundation Cluster Clarence Nethengwe.
The metro working population spends an average of 19% of their salaries on paying back debt, according to the 2017 Old Mutual Savings & Investment Monitor.
The National Credit Monitor found that only 48% of the 24 million credit active consumers in the country were up to date with their credit repayments in the first quarter of 2017.
The statistics, said Nethengwe, show that South Africans continue to be big borrowers and poor savers.
READ: How to know if you have too much debt
"Although these bad money habits are fuelled by the current economic environment and rising living costs, it is a lack of financial knowledge that entrenches them," explained Nethengwe.
He said the financial services sector has an important role to play in helping to build a society that understands the importance of financial planning and commitment.
"While most South Africans know there is a connection between education and long-term prosperity, too few make the connection between savings and wealth creation," said Nethengwe.
He said encouraging more responsible and informed decision-making not only benefits individuals, but also boosts the prosperity and financial stability of the whole nation.
"Healthy, financially stable economies are built largely on the savings of individuals.
"Strong national savings help to finance national development projects and reduce South Africa’s dependency on foreign investment," explained Nethengwe.
He said concepts such as compound interest need to be taught from a young age, to help counteract the celebrity-driven allure of conspicuous consumption.
READ: Reckless lending: control the 'dealer', not the 'addict' - expert
This is all the more vital in a consumer driven society which regards luxury vehicles, expensive clothing, the latest cellphones and property in upmarket suburbs as highly desirable – even essential - status symbols.
Offering an example, Nethengwe pointed out that a young professional who qualifies for vehicle finance of R10 000 per month needs to know that he/she would be better off over the long term driving a less expensive car for a few years and saving the difference to reap the rewards of compound interest instead.
"We also need to dispel the myth that financial planning is only for the rich and elite," Nethengwe noted.
He added that those earning a basic income or students who receive government funding or take out student loans need to have a financial plan to map out their future.
"With financial knowledge and a more disciplined savings mind-set, South Africans will be far better equipped to improve their personal finances and open opportunities for prosperity."

The G on Tuesday, Law 1351 that regulates the elaboration, commercialization, supply and consented use of Chlorine Dioxide Solution (SDC) as prevention and treatment in the face of the coronavirus pandemic (Covid- 19).
The commercialization of SDC must be carried out with indications of use and details of dosage by laboratories or universities, the central government, departmental governments, municipal governments, pharmacies and legally established clinics.
Medical professionals may administer the solution, with the informed consent of the patient or a family member, in accordance with the stipulated protocols.
"The citizens, shelves and inhabitants of the Bolivian territory, may use the solution as an alternative means to prevent or treat infection and the consequences caused by the coronavirus," says the law.
Law 1351 determines that the central level of the State, through the Ministry of HealthDC for preventive or alternative therapeutic use for the treatment of coronavirus; and carry out responsible and appropriate information campaigns on the subject.
Thithin the framework of their powers, will also be responsible for carrying out information campaigns and for acquiring the SDC from certified and authorized universities or public or private laboratories. In addition, they will be able to provide free to health establishments, the SDC as a means of prevention and alternative treatment of the coronavirus.
The Executive Branch attributions and competencies, must consider as sources of financing for free distribution, the resources within the framework of Law 602 of November 14, 2014, of Risk Management and external and internal credits and donations, related to the coronavirus pandemic.
The regulations had been approved by the thenopa, on October 14. However, the transitory government of Jeanine Áñez had submitted a formal request to the Plurinational Constitutional Court (TCP) for a prior review of the regulations,.
The approval in October was carried out after the San Francisco Xavier de Chuquisaca University released the scientific treatise "Study of the effect of chlorine dioxide on Covid-19 (Edico)" which determined that chlorine dioxide is not useful for the treatment of coronavirus because "it does not have a proven positive effect on the patient."
I've been taking CDS (chlorine dioxide solution) since 4 days ago. Yes once again. Cause I feel quite well doing Protocol C. I'm feeling a bit better through days and weeks regardless of my neurological damage caused by psychiatric venoms. This kind of damage is so so debilitating and disabling you don't wanna know, ever.

Of look and find a provider you can trust. Investigate first.
It is so cheap to make your own CDS.
Normally Chllorine Dioxide is used for a Pet Ear Cleaning Drops or for house / office cleaning purpose.
Do you think I don't know chlorine dioxide is used in the industry for some processes?
You're wrong, so wrong. I told you to research, not using Google but DuckDuckGo. You adopted the official corrupt narrative. You have a thread I did at your disposal. Now turns out a whole country like Bolivia is dumber than you for taking it.
I posted there, my thread, a dossier with clinical evidence, research made by allopathic doctors and other scientists about ClO2. I know it's written in Spanish, then take it and translate it! Yes that same substance for dynamite.
There is no doubt that if you're on to something with chlorine dioxide, it will be common knowledge soon rather than later. And it won't stay confined to DuckDuckGo vs Google So in that case you will be vindicated and it won't stay in a MDL forum section. Not that I personally think isolating part of the COVID protein for your body to create an immune response to is that bad of idea, either, but hey to each his own!

Tom Silva replies: Solid surfacing is typically available in matte, semigloss, and gloss finishes. If your countertops were glossy originally, all you should have to do is clean the surface with soapy water, an ammonia-based window cleaner, Softscrub, or Lysol spray. Avoid cleaners like Formula 409 or Fantastik, which leave behind residues. If that doesn't quite do the job, try cleaning with an abrasive household cleanser like Ajax or Comet applied with a sponge or a white Scotch-Brite pad. The bleach in them doesn't hurt solid surfacing, but it does take five or six wipe-downs to get rid of the residue. You can do this once a month to maintain the original level of gloss, but if you want a polished gleam, it will have to be refinished. This isn't an easy job, but it's usually easier and cheaper than replacing the countertop.
The least expensive route to a higher, semigloss polish is to increase the frequency of cleanings with the abrasive and sponge or Scotch-Brite. Your countertop will shine, eventually. But if you can't wait that long, or don't |
en | N/A | N/A | TESTIMONY ON HEALTH COVERAGE FOR FAMILIES LEAVING WELFARE BY CINDY MANN, DIRECTOR, FAMILY AND CHILDREN�S HEALTH PROGRAMS
BEFORE THE HOUSE WAYS & MEANS SUBCOMMITTEE ON HUMAN RESOURCES
Chairman Johnson, Congressman Cardin, act of welfare reform on Medicaid. President Clinton has continued to stressligible for Medicaid is enrolled, and we greatly appreciate this opportunity to discuss our actions and concerns. The historic welfare reform law, along with the new State Children�s Health Insurance Program created in 1997, has enabled States to greatly expand health care coverage eligibility and help more low-income people make the transition from welfare to work. It broke the link between cash assistance programs and eligibility for Medicaid. It also explicitly guaranteed thatMedicaid through receipt of cash assistance would continue to be eligible for Medicaid. Overall national statistics on Medicaid enrollment are encouraging, but there is variation among States. The most recent statistics from all States show that total Medicaid enrollment is about the same now as it was before welfare reform. However, we know that many eligible families are not enrolled; and we share your concern about instances in which State practices have resulted in eligible individuals losing health care coverage.
The President, in addition to aggressively promoting SCHIP outreach efforts, has proposed several additional steps to further expand health care coverage among low-income families and strengthen programs that provide health care for the uninsured. And we are committed to continuing to work with States to ensure that no eligible individuals are denied Medicaid coverage.
The 1996 law also gave States new options for providing Medicaid coverage to low-income working families. This was followed by a regulation issued by HCFA in 1998 allowing States to cover parents in two-parent families. The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 (BBA) built upon the welfare law changes and creat which gives States wide flexibility in providing e sector insurance. The BBA also gave States two new Medicaid options -- presumptive eligibility for children and 12-month continuous eligibility -- to improve coverage among poor families. These changes have created important opportunities for S as they move off welfare and into the workforce. States have responded with eligibility expansions, simplified enrollment procedures, and creative outreach campaigns. The result is that millions more low-income children and parents are now eligible for coverage through Medicaid or the new SCHIP program.
The delinking of welfare and Medicaid has created challenges and opportunities in ensuring that those who are eligible for Medicaid coverage get and retain it. Acknowledging the new administrative burden on States that might result from delinking, the welfare reform law included $500 million for enhanced matching funds to help States cover the increased costs, such as outreach, associated with delinking welfare and Medicaid. Since enactment of welfare reform, we have worked with States and others to undertake substantial efforts to improve Medicaid outreach and increase the participation of eligible children and families.
Consistent national data on Medicaid and SCHIP coverage for families leaving welfare does not yet exist, although thisst recent statistics show that, overall, total Medicaid enrollment has fluctuated only slightly, dropping in 1997, rising in 1998, and is now about the same -- 41.4 million -- as it was before welfare reform. Among low-income adults and children nationally, Medicaid enrollment declined slightly by about 2.1 percent (620,000 individuals) during the three-year period from 1995 to 1998. Among children, it peaked at 20.5 million in 1996, then remained relatively level in the following two years at 20.1 million in 1998 for a total enrollment drop of 1.3 percent (270,000). HHS-funded studies show significant state-to-state variation in enrollment trends, with Medicaid enrollment rates for adults ranging from 24 to 76 percent three months after leaving cash assistance, and enrollment dropping further by as much as 10 to 20 percent in the year after leaving. Improvements in the economy, such as that we have enjoyed for the past six years, contribute to rising incomes and falling welfare and Medicaid caseloads. It is also important to note that overall, the number of people under the poverty level who are uninsured has not increased since 1996 and the poverty rate has declined. One particularly encouraging finding is that the number of non-disabled adults enrolled in Medicaid (primarily parents and pregnant women requiring TANF benefits) actually increased in 1998. And, at the same time, more than 2 million children are now enrolled in SCHIP.
As Marilyn Ellwood notes in her testimony, people losing Medicaid when leaving cash assistance has always been an issue, even before the passage of welfare reform. Other research, dating back to the 1980s, has shown that people who leave welfare often return to the cash assistance rolls. This "cycling" pattern of cash assistance usage has also contributed to periodic losses of Medicaid coverage, both for the adults and for their children. In this context, Ellwood's finding that in 1995 between 49 percent and 65 percent of adults who left cash assistance were not enrolled in Medicaid after six months is not surprising, even if it is disappointing. In the five states she studied, the turnover rate for adults ranged between 26 and 40 percent.
Breaking Medicaid�s link with cash assistance, along with the guarantee of Medicaid for certain families with children regardless of cash assistance status and Medicaid expansions, should help to reduce cycling on and off Medicaid. This will help allow Medicaid to operate more effectively as a health insurance program. By and large, thanks to Transitional Medical Assistance, the 1996 eligibility guarantee, and recent eligibility expansions, people leaving cash assistance are eligible for Medicaid. Our challenge now is to ensure that the law is implemented properly and that Medicaid eligibility is based on a family�s income and assets, and not on their status as welfare recipients.
As mentioned above, there is wide variation among States in enrollment trends. Some States have done an excellent job of maintaining Medicaid coverage for individuals leaving cash assistance rolls. Other States have done an excellent job of outreach to individuals eligible for Medicaid or SCHIP. But in other States, there have been problems that we are working hard to address.
We are greatly concerned about instances in which administrative inaction or improper procedures by States have resulted in eligible individuals being denied access to Medicaid, or in their losing Medicaid coverage or Transitional Medical Assistance that they are guaranteed by law. For example:
C Some public assistance staff failed to inform individuals applying for cash assistance and Medicaid that theywant to pursue or were not eligible for cash assistance under TANF;
C Some States have used joint application forms for both cash assistance and Medicaid and improperly denied health care coverage to individuals who were eligible for Medicaid but not eligible for cash assistance; and
C Computer systems in some States improperly removed individuals from Medicaid rolls when closing their cash assistance cases.
We have taken and are continuing to take several steps to help States adjust to the changes and address specific situations in which eligible individuals were denied Medicaid coverage. And we are working with States to find new ways to reach children and families outside, as well as through, the welfare system. Our efforts to help States address these types of concerns began shortly after the welfare reform law was enacted.
C In 1997 and 1998, we sent a series of letters to States that provided guidance on how to comply with the new rules and ensure health care coverage for those eligible for Medicaid. We also revised our Medicaid manual for States to update guidance on the new law.
C In June 1998 we sent a letter specifically reminding States of the new rules. Since TANF agencies often administm, we wrote this lettnt it to both TANF and Medicaid agencies.
C In February 1999, we and the National Governors� Association launched the Insure Kids Now campaign, with a national toll-free number, 1-877-KIDS NOW, that links callers to their own State SCHIP and Medicaid programs, and a www.insurekidsnow.gov web site.
C In March 1999, w28-page Supporting Families in Transition guidebook for States with information on getting and keeping people enrolled in Medicaid when they are leaving or are diverted from welfare.
C Last August, we began conducting site visits to all 50 States to review Medicaid enrollment policies and systems. We are sharing results with States to help them identify best practices and resolve any identified problems.
C Last Fall, we worked with Congress to lift the expiration date for States to spend the $500 million set aside to help them change systems and conduct outreach to address concerns related to delinking of Medicaid and welfare, and in January we sent a letter urging States to take advantage of this extension.
C Last December, HHS published proposed regulations that would take Medicaid and SCHIP enrollment figures into consideration when awarding bonuses to States for success in welfare reform efforts and issued guidance that States would not qualify for performance bonuses unless they certified they were in compliance with Mediciad (and Food Stamp) requirements.
C Last month, we sent a letter to all State Medicaid Directors with additional guidance on what they must do to review Medicaid terminations and re-enroll individuals who were improperly terminated. For example, they must review computer systems and eligibility processes to ensure that they do not improperly deny Medicaid benefits to eligible people. They also must review records to be sure children losing SSI benefits because of the new disability definition did not lose benefits guaranteed them by the BBA, and reinstate anyone improperly terminated from Medicaid. The letter also included guidance on streamlining processes for reviewing whether individuals are eligible to continue receiving Medicaid and ensuring that computer systems do not result in improper terminations. Several States are already reinstating coverage for improperly terminated individuals, and we have received a generally receptive response to the April letter from other States.
C On June 9, we will hold a conference with the National Governors�best practices for ensuring that eligible individuals are not denied Medicaid coverage.
To build on these efforts, the President�s fiscal 2001 budget invests $5.6 billion over the next ten years to reach and enroll millions. It would:
C provide new options to States ;
C expand presumptive eligibility for children by allowing additional sites, such as child care referral centers, to immediately enroll low-income uninsured children in these programs while their applications are being processed; and,
C require States to make the Medicaid enrollment process for children as simple as it is in SCHIP.
The Administration has also proposed investing $85 billion over 10 years to improve health insurance access and affordability. This would directly impact the very population affected by welfare reform and expand coverage to at least 5 million additional uninsured Americans by:
C providing es through the SCHIP;
C accelerating eHIP;
C expandingC strengthening;
C expanding Medicaid and SCHIP; and
C expanding Medicaid and SCHIP so there is a single, simple eligibility standard for low-income families may be the best way to overcome the complexity and stigma that have limited enrollment.
Helping States ensure that and SCHIP is an integral part of making welfare reform work. Health care coverage can be critical in helping families work towards self-sufficiency. Most States are addressing the challenges associated with changing eligibility rules and systems, and many have developed promising new strategies for ensuring that children and families who are not receiving cash assistance are properly evaluated for Medicaid eligibility. We will continue to work with States as they work to reinstate individuals who have been improperly terminated, and revise computer systems and enrollment procedures to ensure that eligible individuals are not denied coverage. And we look forward to working with this Congress to enact the President�s proposals to further expand coverage and health care for low-income and uninsured Americans| |

Cong apparently claims that he is a reincarnation of Jesus Christ who has been sent from heaven to protect the actress and be her "husband for life".
It is thought that Cong travelled to Lawrence's home town of Kentucky on 18 April in an attempt to confront her brother, and sent him a message saying: "You got me really upset. We was taken into custody after he entered a local police station asking for the home address of the actress' mother.

However, this approach suffers from at least two drawbacks. First, once the message “INVALID ENTRY” is displayed, the pilot can no longer see the input that prompted the error message. Accordingly, the pilot cannot review the input to determine what prompted the error message. Second, while the error message makes clear that the pilot made an invalid entry, it does not provide the pilot with any guidance for correcting the error. Accordingly, the pilot's attempts to correct the error may be conducted by trial and error, which can be time consuming..

Last Oct I saw Gill for my psoriasis. I have suffererd for about 15 yrs. 3 yrs ago I was a chronic sufferer. I have tried the creams, potions, light treatment from the NHS. Nothing worked. I read some books & considered my liver was the key. Gill tested me & discovered that my B vitamin levels were low & my body could not deal with eggs, diary & beef. She advised me to drink a glass of carrot juice daily, take a B vitamin & Omega3 fish oil tablet. I should refrain from eating diary, eggs & beef. Whilst these will not cause the psoriasis, they would make my system sluggish & therefore less able to repair my skin. I have voluntarily given up alcohol & occasionally drink coffee. My psoriasis has improved by 50%. My knees & elbows were once ¼ inch thick are now just white scales & my back is almost clear! Thereâs still a way to go, but without Gillâs guidance I would be looking at another summer of covering up/getting stares from other people. She has done what the NHS canât

This potential problem doesn’t seem to occur to Rosenthal or the American studio executives brokering the situation until the Russian creative team begins fighting Rosenthal’s advice at every turn. Why cast an average-looking actor for Raymond when you can have a hunk? Why dress his wife in casual clothes if she can clean the house in glamorous garb (or the Russian version of glamorous, which recalls American fashion circa 1988)?
What we get is a cultural standoff, and it’s awkward, nonsensical and really funny. Certainly funnier than the television show that’s coming together inside the rundown industrial building that serves as the television studio. Rosenthal’s exasperated expressions and reactions may make him the comic, but he’s also a tough negotiator who rarely backs down from his vision, even if it would make his life easier. And sometimes it even works.
As enjoyable as the debacle is to watch — especially when Rosenthal interacts with his delightfully flighty parents, the inspiration for Raymond’s parents —documentary itself. Although he never explicitly says so in the film, it’s clear that Rosenthal took on the project with the goal of turning the experience into a documentary — presumably a funny one. While the Russian way of doing business does create increasingly ridiculous barriers that make for comedy gold, I couldn’t help but wonder how Rosenthal’s desire to make an entertaining documentary might have shaped his actions on camera and in the editing room. There’s no denying the hilarity of these cultural differences and quirky personalities (a TV director who performs music with enema bags as a hobby?), but the whole project seems so outrageously untenable that you have to question the motivation for attempting it all.
While these concerns came to mind more than a few times during the film, they were promptly shoved aside by a genuine laugh at whatever craziness happened next. I don’t think a television writer hopes for anything more than that. </s> Lucky43Henderson, NC,

Sporting News ranks NFL coaches; Turner 20th approved the NFL’s request for a temporary stay of a lower court ruling earlier this week that lifted the lockout.
“That was brief,” said Chargers center Nick Hardwick,
league and players next week. The league did not immediately announce it had officially reinstated the lockout, although its website reported Friday night that teams were being notified the lockout had resumed. With the draft continuing through Saturday night, nothing was expected to happen over the weekend.
“You kind of want to get off the roller coaster,” Hardwick said. “So my default is to stay even.”
Safety Eric Weddle, expected to be an unrestricted free agent when the labor situation is resolved, echoed that sentiment. He was among many players who said they expected the stay.
Head coach Norv Turner talked to players Friday. While any coach would want his players at the facility, working under his staff’s supervision and preparing specifically for next season, Turner seemed unfazed.
“We all deal best in a comfort level,” Turner said. “Our comfort level is having the guys here and doing what we’ve done … (But) our guys know what we’re doing. We’re flexible enough to handle whatever happens.”
Many Chargers have been working out together four times a week, ostensibly under the direction of Philip Rivers. Others are working out regularly in smaller groups.
“We are working really hard,” said Hardwick, who along with Rivers was among those at Chargers Park on Friday. “A lot of guys know exactly what they need to do in the offseason. When the time comes we’re going to be ready.”
Hardwick said it was “great to be back in the office” and see coaches, but added it is more important to get the labor mess to be resolved satisfactorily..” </s> Erected in 1947, this world-famous monument was originally located in front of the National Library and commemorated Soviet soldiers who died fighting in WWII, and from the point of view of locals, occupying Estonia. It served as a kind of ‘tomb of the unknown soldier,’ at one point having an ‘eternal flame’ burning in front. After the Soviet Union fell, the monument was one of the few of its kind to survive, mainly due to objections by the local Russian-speaking population. The plaques that now flank the soldier simply read ‘For those fallen in World War II’ with no reference to nationality. Due to huge and destructive clashes between police and drunken demonstrators largely from Russia, the statue was relocated to the Defence Forces cemetery in the spring of 2007. Visitors to Tallinn can even find Bronze Soldier related t-shirts, DVDs and other memorabilia dedicated to these events.

en | N/A | N/A | When I began writing in my twenties, honestly it was kind of to save my life. I had thoughts, feelings, memories, doubts I hardly dared to put in words, and they certainly weren’t going to be spoken ones. My notebooks were entirely secret at first. Then I enrolled in writing classes, and stories had to come out on tables surrounded by a dozen or so other writers. But I was careful about what I typed onto what a few of you may remember as carbon paper to make duplicates. Before I showed my work, I had to feel that it was as good as it could be at the moment. I had to feel that it was both mine and going to be worth the time someone might take to read it.
I’m still cautious about what I show to people. I have a critique group I trust with my life, okay my words (close enough) but I want what they read to have gone through my own interior cycles of compression, revision, and shaking out. My writing process hasn’t changed so very much, but I’m at a point in my career when I occasionally join conversations about branding, or what, if anything, is going to make my books stand out and stand together. I sometimes catch glimpses of expectation when people in the field ask me about what’s next.
One of the hardest things I’ve done with this WIP is decide to show the 1st draft to my critique group. I wasn’t going to, but it was taking SO long, I was feeling lonely & as if I were writing into a void–that just doesn’t work for me. Luckily, like you said, I trust them with it all–and with lots of caveats about just wanting reactions & ideas, and hoping they’d be okay if (when!) the next draft changed so much, they might not be able to track any of their comments into it, etc, etc… 🙂 It’s been good for me, just to have the motivation to get the scenes out, and to have someone I can talk to about Caro and her family. I think my cave is for my worries and my fears, although I admit those slip out sometimes, too! 🙂

en | N/A | N/A | For many old ages comptrollers have been required to follow with the regulations and guidelines set out in the accounting constructs and conventions. One accounting technique used is the historical cost convention which requires the minutess to be recorded at the original monetary value, i.e. , the monetary value paid, in the balance sheet. The ? sum and the day of the month of the dealing are both recorded under historical cost convention. This merely means that the assets and disbursals of a house must be recorded at the original cost when purchased and the net income is to be calculated by cut downing the gross by the original cost of the resources used. The point must stay in the histories until it has been disposed of.
However, HCA does confront much unfavorable judgment due to the jobs with rising prices. When rising prices was rather high, the IASB issued the IAS 15, as it ‘s attack was to keep fiscal histories accurately, taking all factors into consideration, this merely intend that companies were required to bring forth rising prices adjusted histories, nevertheless, when rising prices fell this was removed from developed states as houses were unwilling to do such minor accommodations. However, less developed states that are sing hyperinflation, are still required to bring forth these rising prices adjusted histories. This is why the ASB continually develops new Financial Reporting theoretical accounts and continually improves bing theoretical accounts.
4 2.4 – Three theoretical accounts compared.
HCA is more nonsubjective and therefore is more verifiable from auditable certification.
Due to the grade of subjectiveness in mensurating current value, the betterment in comparing commercial entities is a myth.
Businesss use assets and stuffs, the RC theoretical account merely measures the cost incurred in the replacing of these assets or stuffs. This is merely done by taking into history the current province of the plus and hence replaces it on a similar for similar footing. If for illustration, a shop buys a new computing machine at an initial cost of ?5000, this is to be depreciated utilizing the consecutive line method over a period of 5 old ages. Under HCA its value after twelvemonth one would be ?4000 ( i.e. 5000-1000 ) , nevertheless, if like for similar replacing costs ?6000 so the gross RC would be ?6000 and depreciation for the 1 twelvemonth would compare to ?1200 intending the original ?4000 HCA figure would now be changed to ?4800. With the extra ?800 said to be a keeping addition.
2.4 – Three theoretical accounts compared.
The Accounting Standards Board ( ASB ) was established in 1990 as a subordinate of the Financial Reporting Council ( FRC ) .
As a consequence of the old failed criterion compositors, the ASB has adopted a gradualist attack for specific plus and liability intervention where they would be required to travel off from historical costs.
rules. The ‘statement of Accounting Policies ‘ is a system based on the value to the concern. This merely means that it considers the current value system as is merely to find the value of the plus within the concern. So, if the plus is deserving replacing we would replace it through the RC. If it is deserving maintaining, but non replacing, so utilize economic value, if it is non deserving replacing or maintaining so we would utilize NRV.
Accounting criterions are hard to develop and formalize, particularly for smaller states. Therefore, some signifier of ordinance was needed for the fiscal statements that were produced by these smaller states. And so, led to the creative activity of the IASC in 1973 by a figure of the accounting organic structures from assorted states including, UK, , Ireland and the USA.
Where the IASB adopted all the International Accounting Standards ( IASs ) that the IASC had set and any new criterions set by the IASB were now to be nam ) . Similar to the IASC, there are 19 legal guardians who oversee any work by the IASB, these legal guardians are from around the Earth, six from Europe, six from USA, four from Asia/Pacific and the staying three can be from anyplace provided the geographical balance is retained.
No better option is available to replace the flawed HCA method, this explains why the Accounting organic structures have non replaced HCA. Although HCA has a figure of restrictions, the accounting organic structures seem to disregard the fact that there are besides a figure of benefits of HCA. Corporations across the Earth recognize and accept the HCA theoretical account.
So, if the accounting organic structures decide to replace HCA the inquiry that needs to be asked is, will it be better than historical cost accounting? It will be hard to replace as people are familiar working with HCA.
Historical Cost Accounting is and will likely stay the oldest and most dominant method to mensurate concern public presentation, until, the accounting organic structures are able to develop a foolproof method which will efficaciously replace the HCA method.

en | N/A | N/A | Jesus fed the hungry, and did so with great generosity. Today he feeds us with the food of the Eucharist. We receive this precious food, not because we are worthy of it, but because we need it…
“How can we practis
“Jesus died for love!And in the Eucharist, he wishes to communicate to us hiour, we can love as he loved us, giving his life. This is the Mass: to enter in the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Jesus; when we go to Mass it’s as if we went to Calvary, the same thing. But think: if we in the moment of Mass go to Calvary – let us think imaginatively – and we know that that man there is Jesus, do we then permit ourselves to chat, to take photographs, to engage somewhat in a show?No!Because it’s Jesus!We will certainly be in silence, in the joy of being saved. When we enter the church to celebrate Mass we should think this: I am entering Calvary, where Jesus gives his life for me. And thus chats disappear, comments and the things that remove us from this most beautiful thing that is the Mass, disappear. It’s the triumph of Jesus!”
One winter’s day, the boy, the man got very angry and said to God: “God, why don’t you do something about this little boy?”And God replied, “I’ve already done something about him.” esn’t seem to be working.” “I agree with you there”, replied God. “By the way, what did you do?”
“Repeat frequently that “I am on a mission” and not simply that “I have a mission.” To be on a permanent mission “requires courage, audacity, imagination and the desire to go beyond, to go even further” …
The hardest thing about living out the call of God in our own life isn’t always opposition from ‘enemies of the faith’. Sometimes it’s being misunderstood by those close to us – the people we rub elbows with, our friends, our relatives. They know us. They know we’re one of them. They know our faults. We’re hesitant to become more involved in our Church, or in issues of justice and peace because we can hear them say, if only to themselves, “Who are you to be saying and doing such things?”
The truth is, we’re sometimes reluctant to follow this ‘way of life’ not because of godless people who might persecute us. The truth is, we’re sometimes uneasy about living out our faith because we might get the same reaction Jesus got from his own townspeople: Where did this man get all this?Why…
How can we say thank you to God in a way that even comes close to being worthy of the great gift he has given us in his Son? |

en | N/A | N/A | At Mira Jean Designs, we love collaborating with fellow creatives and designers and celebrating their work, and today are thrilled to highlight the work of talented Interior Designer Laura Fox. Last year, we had just completed designing our Pup Collection of wallpaper and fabrics when we came across a pic on Instagram of Laura's beloved Pug ...and knew we had to meet!
Such a treat!Laura and her team could not be a friendlier, more welcoming group ...and talk about interior design talent!
Wer work, favorite projects ...and (of course!
How did you find Sir Wilbur Scott?
I thought it would be nice to give him a more formal name and thus he became Sir Wilbur Scott the Beast, though he goes by Wilbur, Wil, Wilby, Sir…. I later got his birth documents and his parents were named Master Edward James Cookie Monster and Princess Justine Leigh Pia ...so it seemed very fitting to have named Wilbur with a Sir!
Pictured above: Laura Fox's Pug, Sir Wilbur Scott. That face!
How would you best describe your firm and interior design style?
What is a recent favorite interior design project of yours?Of course I love them all…..we have the pleasure of working with so many types of styles and client. But I have to say, I was super happy with how our #Coastalchic project turned out!
Pictured above: a vignette from one of Laura's favorite interior design projects - and ours, too!
Fun Fact: in 2018, Laura's team moved into a new office space in Kensington, Maryland. We were honored she chose our Pug Wallpaper to help refresh the office powder room's walls. So fun! |

- Seamless integrations with common business tools, including Slack, GitHub, JIRA and more
</s> Be suspicious. Consider what you are being told, why, and whether it makes sense.
Critical thinking is a crucial editorial skill. It goes alongside but is more specific than the generic “being detail oriented” and often gets less attention. Editors must apply some measure of objective analysis to stay mindful of facts that may be incorrect, statements that should be flagged, or correlations that don’t make sense. It’s easier, of course, to just trust the author, and sometimes I may be reading along, comfortable under the security of an author’s authority, when I realize wait, no, I better check on or question this. Even the best of authors make mistakes, and sometimes they rely on memory when memory can fail us (work in memory studies has shown that the more oftenthe memory becomes distorted–fascinating! but I might be remembering that wrong…).
A propensity to silently question helped lead me to a career in editing. When editing, I can quietly think and question and sometimes, as a result, make suggestions that hopefully improve the work. I also make my own mistakes, but let’s not discuss those now (or ever). It is never the role of an editor to try to show up an author with rules of grammar or historical facts or, please never, the editor’s own opinions. Sometimes an author can interpret queries or editorial suggestions in this way, and I try to be sensitive in how I make changes and ask questions to avoid that response. But it is the editor’s role (whether developmental or line or copy editor) to assist the author in the presentation of accurate and reliable work, and to do so, critical thinking/questioning is, well, critical. A scholar approaches a field of study critically to produce a work intended to further the discipline, and albeit on a smaller or different scale, the editor must apply critical thinking to that same end.
In the larger world, thinking critically, applying analysis and logic to form a judgment, might also be our best–or only–defense against the constant blurring of the line between information, which is thoughtfully researched and promotes independent thinking, and propaganda, the intent of which is to think for us. </s> Aggie Creek Fire Update,

Fixed bug with text and sidetext functions which lacked the necessary single quotes around the message text.
QOL improvement by replacing ' ' with '_' for text function, because otherwise only the first word was displayed.
<issue_comment>username_1: Actually how did you verify the city_tile_count was not correct? It should be correct since every turn the starter kit will automatically reset that value to 0 before adding it back in
<issue_comment>username_0: Whoops, I seriously misread that portion of code. I was dealing with a bug with city counting and thought this was the problem. I reverted that change and left the message debug message fix.
<issue_comment>username_1: actually for message debugging we may handle this internally on the engine because other kits would have this issue too then.

def text(x: int, y: int, message: str, fontsize: int = 16) -> str:
return f"dt {x} {y} {fontsize} '{message}'"

en | N/A | N/A | where can you sell sewing books online?
I have a book on shirts and men’s haberdashery from 1840s to the 1920s that I would like to sell online. Does anyone know where I can do this? By the way I live outside North America.
PS Where in the world do you live?
You can sell them through Amazon & they give you all the instructions you may ever need. When you co onto Amazon, there is a "Sell" button - just click onto that & go from there. I had planned to do that with all my quilting & sewing books (I absolutely must downsize), but don't have the time now that I'm moving at the end of next month. So I'll just have to give them to the library or charities for their book sales (or find a second-hand book dealer who will buy them by the boxful). There are used book sellers in your Yellow Pages who are interested in antique books, which yours qualifies. Also check out the "Wanted" section in your classified ads in your newspapers - they usually advertise there. Good luck!
You can also try Abe Books (http://www.abebooks.co.uk) or Play.com. They allow secondary sellers, too.
I "google" used books and many sites will appear. Powells books, Hamilton books, Alibris books, all buy used books. They usually have a great selection of used sewing books to purchase, too.
I believe members of patternreview.com are able to list sewing items for sale. Not sure, but you might want to check out that site to see. |

Conophytum truncatum subsp. truncatum young and old juxtaposed
Image 48 of 60
These Conophytum truncatum subsp. truncatum flowers are closed during daytime. They open mainly at night, exuding a faint scent that attracts certain moth species, their nocturnal pollinators.
The mound of leaves formed by the plant often hugs rock or lives in a crevice, facing away from north. This allows the plant to avoid at least some of the harsh direct sunlight. An opportunistic advantage such as being born near a shady shrub does much to alleviate summer conditions, optimising growth.
The position of a plant is never a chosen benefit, compared to an animal that may move into shade when it is hot. It copes with the luck of the draw for life or dies; the fate or fortune given when the seed germinates. The fortunate live well, the less so struggle to seed at least once before succumbing (Vlok and Schutte-Vlok, 2010; iSpot; www.plantzafrica.com). |
