Description: Thallus light pink to purple, forming thin crusts or erect branched thalli without protuberances, loosely attached by cell adhesion or rhizoids. Structure dimerous. Epithallial cells rounded or flattened, not flared. Cortical filaments 1–5 cells long, sometimes joined by fusions; secondary pit connections lacking. Trichocytes solitary or in clusters. Reproductive structures in protuberant uniporate conceptacles. Tetrasporangial conceptacles with a central columella. Apical sporangial plugs absent. Comments: Mastophora is probably tropical and subtropical in distribution, although this is uncertain because of problems of identification. It has been reported from southeastern Asia and from islands in the tropical western Pacific. As recently circumscribed this genus is most closely related to Lithoporella and Metamastophora. Numbers of names and species: There are 24 species names in the database at present, as well as 5 infraspecific names. Of the species names, 6 have been flagged as accepted taxonomically on the basis of the listed literature under the species name.

Every week, we’re busy telling the stories behind our platform, our technology and our place in the gaming and technology industries. For those of you who catch up with ROBLOX over the weekend, the Weekly ROBLOX Roundup collects the best stuff to hit our various avenues of publication in the last week. This time: the launch of the ROBLOX International Film Festival, the fantastic winners of our dynamic lighting video contest, the new in-game sales feature, ROBLOX’s booth at Maker Faire Bay Area 2013, crazyman32’s advice on getting your ambitious ROBLOX project off the ground, the first issue of Feedback Loop, Avert the Odds II, and other bits and pieces. Enjoy. A few weeks ago, we announced the ROBLOX International Film Festival and, on Friday, we opened the doors to your submissions. We’re looking for films in five categories and you have until June 2nd at 11:59 p.m. PT to submit your entry. For complete details and a Film Fest FAQ, read our Friday blog announcement. A word of advice: use the time you have available to produce the best film you can. Test it out on friends and see what they think. After all, it’s a prized BLOXY Award and live screening at BLOXcon on the line! With dynamic lighting available on GameTest1 during the second half of April, we decided to launch a contest and see how you early-adopters could leverage the feature. You did not disappoint. We received somewhere in the neighborhood of 200 submissions and the quality of entries was so high that we awarded the primary prize, the Master of Light and Darkness top hat, to not just five, but 10 entrants. You can see all of their wonderful dynamic lighting videos in the blog post announcing the winners. They’re also featured on the ROBLOX YouTube channel. In 2012, we gave ROBLOX builders the ability to sell Game Passes and gear in association with games and places. Last week, we made it even easier to profit off these features by giving builders an API to sell Game Passes and gear in-game. There are many possibilities in implementing in-game sales, and we’re excited to see how you leverage the feature in your place. If you think you’ve done something particularly exciting or effective, let us know by sending a message to @ROBLOX on Twitter or leaving a comment. For an introduction to the feature and integrating it in your place, see our blog article from Thursday. In what we hope is the first of many builder-authored ROBLOX blog posts, veteran crazyman32 discusses the steps to getting a new game-development project off the ground (see what I did there?) in the context of his upcoming release, Perilous Skies: New Horizons. From building a foundation to sprinkling in the polish and details, his advice will steer you in the right direction as you think about creating your own ambitious project. Like last year, ROBLOX will be at Maker Faire Bay Area 2013. Unlike last year, we’re going to have a large space with a lot of fun stuff to do. Among the fun stuff: collaborative building, a dynamic lighting showcase (using your contest entries) and workshop, play testing new content, and hanging out with ROBLOX admins (most of whom will be at the ROBLOX booth at some point over the weekend. The event takes place on May 18th and 19th in San Mateo, CA. Learn more by reading our full update from Tuesday! We rebooted the long-running but well liked “Responding to User Feedback” series with the catchier and snapper “Feedback Loop” last week. Going forward, we’ll continue to collect questions and ideas from the ROBLOX community using social media and have members of the ROBLOX development team respond with answers and thoughts on where, if anywhere, your thoughts fit into our development pipeline. In this first issue of Feedback Loop, John Shedletsky discusses custom particle-effect creation, improved humanoid manipulation, smart/auto-complete script editing, credits for builder-created catalog assets, individual gear statistics and leaderboards, and more! There's nothing like a cloud of negative hit points floating above the enemy head. Avert the Odds II is a well built first-person shooter by Venvious that constantly delivers fast-paced, competitive multiplayer action. What’s really cool is between rounds, players have the opportunity to vote for the next game mode and the player-created map on which the round will take place. Bot Battle is my personal favorite mode; it lets all players band together to fend off waves of increasingly difficult AI opponents. With the ability to level up and put points into your characters skills and customize a weapon loadout, Avert the Odds II has all the bells and whistles you’ve come to expect from modern-day shooters. Plus, it feels responsive and polished. Great work! I’m not exactly sure what an “artifcial gravity spacecraft” is, but it looks cool. We’ve finally finished announcing Fan Art Contest winners on the ROBLOX Facebook page. Would you like to see or submit more ROBLOX fan art? Let us know and we’ll consider re-opening the contest! Now that it’s in the books, here’s a gallery of all the winning art. Great work, everyone!

MANCHESTER UNITED boss Jose Mourinho could still snare Real Madrid star Gareth Bale this summer. At least that’s the verdict of beIN Sports journalist Richard Keys, who thinks the potential deal won’t be dead until the transfer window shuts on August 31. Bale has spent the past four years with Real and during that spell he’s won the Champions League three times, as well as one La Liga title. His future has been the subject of much speculation since the end of last season though with Florentino Perez targeting Kylian Mbappe. Bale is thought to be the player Real would be most likely to sacrifice in order to generate funds to sign the Monaco forward. And that situation has seen the 28-year-old heavily linked with a return to the Premier League with United. Mourinho claimed he had no chance of signing Bale after he featured in Real’s UEFA Super Cup win over the Red Devils. Keys reckons the Welshman could rock up at Old Trafford before deadline day though. On Twitter, a fan asked him: "Hi Richard, still think there is legs in the Bale to United deal?" And Keys replied: "Until the window shuts I do." Should United bag Bale, he’s likely to cost more than the then-world-record £85m which took him to Real from Tottenham in 2013. In the meantime, Mourinho's men will be out to make it two wins in two Premier League games when they visit Swansea on Saturday. They got their 2017/18 campaign off to a perfect start by thrashing West Ham 4-0 last weekend, with new boy Romelu Lukaku bagging a brace.

Today, as usual, we are going to have a peer response workshop that mirrors the principles of the unit we’ve been working in. We are going to build a collaborative, hypertext, interactive narrative by giving feedback to individual stories of our peers. In today’s collaborative class notes document, you will again find a Table of Contents. This time, each chapter relates to a principle of interactive narrative composition. Each of you authors (or groups) should begin by adding a link to your narrative to the “index,” so others will be able to view it. Then, working individually, you should each pick another narrative listed in the index and play / explore it thoroughly. Make sure to familiarize yourself with as many of your choices and outcomes as possible; you may not play the entire narrative, but neither should you be satisfied with just one quick scan. Once you are ready to form a response to that narrative, you should return to the Table of Contents, and follow the links within Sections One and Two to leave your feedback on that narrative. For each of your peers’ pieces that you encounter, make sure to express one aspect of it that you thought worked well, and one element that you thought could be improved. The catch is, you will need to organize your comments into an ongoing collaborative narrative based on the criteria in the Table of Contents. Each chapter in the TOC should read as if a reference article about the principle of interactive narrative covered there, that uses a variety of sample interactive narratives to support its articulation of how and why that principle matters in the composition of interactive narratives. This will be challenging! It means that, in addition to saying what you have to say about the narrative you’ve just read, you’ll also need to discuss the topic of the chapter, explain its significance, and then use your peer’s narrative to illustrate the point you’re making. It also means that, if you’re not the first contributor to a chapter, you need to work to integrate your commentary with what’s already there. Your goal should be to add to the chapter but maintain a sense of cohesion. Place references to the same narrative in the same place. Discuss similar issues or questions alongside each other. Most significantly, you should work to write your contribution as part of a collaborative voice — no references to what “I” thought or what “my” narrative does; you should consider yourself a more scholarly author, adding to a broad body of knowledge. Each time you type a response (that is, in each new section), I want you to add at least one hyperlink to a source outside the project, because I want you to support your response with other resources. You can find a starting list of possibilities in the ‘resources’ section, but should also feel free to include other examples and comparisons to games or stories with which you are familiar. If you do so, please also add them to the list of references where relevant. Over the course of the class period, I also want each person to embed one image somewhere in our document. This could be a screenshot of gameplay (yours of a peer’s narrative, or of another game / IF referenced) or any other relevant comparison you can think of to make your point. Make sure to caption / cite the image. My hope is that you will be able to thoroughly explore and comment on 2-3 narratives during class time. That should suggest to you how much time I want you to spend exploring each piece, and commenting on it. Make your responses thorough and detailed. Of course, you will not each receive tailored feedback, as you have in the past. Instead, each of you will leave class today with a massive reference document that explores and explains what makes a reader feel engaged with and invested in an interactive narrative, and what disrupts that engagement. Rather than combing the document for references to your narrative specifically, you should instead read the document in its entirety, and think about how you can implement these best practices into your interactive narrative before Friday’s deadline.

It is not a myth! If you buy property in Spain you can get a Spanish residency permit (this is the correct bureaucratic terminology for Spain’s golden visa), which allows you to live in Europe. The only challenge is the paperwork, and you must invest at least 500.000 €. Keep reading for the details . . . In 2013 Spain passed a law that gives residency permits to non-EU citizens in exchange for a property investment of 500.000 € or more. The idea is to attract foreign investment and create jobs. This will stimulate the economy and reduce public debt. We have many clients that have taken advantage of Spain’s Golden Visa. In this article we address their most frequently asked questions. We explain the difference between a visa and a residence permit, details about the type of property purchases that qualify, timing and more! Q: Can I apply for Spain’s Golden Visa with more than one property if each property is less than 500.000 €? Yes. You can use more than one property to qualify for Spain’s Golden Visa as long as the amount invested is equal to or greater than 500.000 €. Q: Is there a certain period in which the purchases must take place? Suppose I buy one property now and another, say, a year later? Currently there are no requirements on the timing of your purchases. The only potential problem would be if the Spanish Government modified the law. Please note that this type of thing has been known to occur. Spanish laws do respond to external factors. For example, the law that created Spain’s Golden Visa was established in 2013. At that time there was a deep economic crisis, caused by the collapse of Spain’s housing bubble. There was a large inventory of unsold properties that were seized, or slated to be seized, by Spanish banks. These weighed heavily on public and private debt. Since domestic housing demand was virtually non-existent, the country did everything it could do encourage foreign investment. Like any law, this one could undergo changes. For example, if the government decided it was more interested in infrastructure development, as opposed to selling real estate, it could increase the minimum floor for real estate investment and offer more advantageous programs for infrastructure investment. If this were to happen before you submitted your application, it could be negatively impacted. In our opinion, this law will not suffer important changes in the next five to ten years. However, it is important to know that there is a small chance that the law could change We will tell you why we don’t think it will undergo material changes in coming years. Q: Can the law regarding the right to have a Golden Visa be changed retroactively? One of the cornerstones of the Spanish legal system is that laws don’t have retroactive effects. This achieves legal stability with respect to acquired rights. Thus retroactive change is only applied in very exceptional cases. Q: How long does Spain’s Golden Visa last? Please note that there are two steps to this process. First you obtain the visa, which is a stamp in your passport issued by a Spanish Consulate. It allows you to travel to Spain, with multiple entries and exits, for one year. Within this year you should travel to Spain and apply for your residency permit. You must apply for this in Spain. Q: How long are the residency permits valid? Residency permits are initially valid for two years. After this period you can renew it. This renewal is valid for five years. You can continue renewing it every five years as long as you own properties in Spain. You do not have to reside in Spain in order to be allowed to renew your residency permit. A: In order to start the Golden Visa/Residency Permit process you must first purchase properties in excess of 500.000 €. You will need the purchase agreement(s) and the deed(s) to prove that you have made the investment(s). For information on how to obtain your title and other documentation, read 5 steps to take after purchasing property on Costa de Sol. A: Once you apply for your residence permit, it takes about 60 days. Roughly 30 days to complete the application process and 30 days to receive your ID card. Q: Does the Golden Visa only apply to me or can I extend it to family members? A: Spain’s Golden Visa extends to immediate family members. As Spain is one of the best places in the world to raise children, this is an attractive option if you have a family. Spouses and dependent children under the age of eighteen years are guaranteed residency permits. For all other family members you must present paperwork proving they are your legal dependants. Q: Can I get a mortgage to purchase my property? A: Yes, but it has to be from a foreign bank. The logic is that will bring 500,000 € of foreign investment into Spain. If you borrow money from a Spanish bank, you are not bringing money into the country. Our recommendation is to either pay in cash, or have your financing lined up before you purchase. Ideally, this will be with a bank you’ve done business with for years. Q: If I buy property through a company, can I still get a Golden Visa? A: Yes you can. All you have to do is prove that you, directly or indirectly, hold the majority of the voting rights and have the power to appoint or dismiss the majority of the board of directors. This needs to be demonstrated through official documents such as your company’s articles of incorporation. These documents should be notarized and translated into Spanish. Q: Are there any scenarios under which the immigration authorities will deny renewing your residence permit? Basically there are only two scenarios under Spain’s Golden Visa program where you would be denied renewal. First, if you sell your property or transfer it into someone else’s name. Second, if you have a criminal record. If you have a criminal record you will not receive an initial residency permit. When you purchase property in excess of 500,000 € you will receive a multiple entry visa which is valid for one year. Within this year you must go to Spain and apply, in person, for your residency permit. It is valid as long as you keep your Spanish properties in your name. You do not need to reside in Spain, but will have to come here each time you need to renew your residency permit. This is because you have to personally apply for your Spanish ID card. If you decide to live in Spain, you are eligible for permanent residency after 5 years. However, you have to demonstrate that you did not spend more than eleven months outside of Spain within the prior five years. Once you have a permanent residency permit you do not need to renew it. You just renew your ID card which is very fast and easy. As you may heard of, navigating the Spanish bureaucracy can be time consuming, tricky and frustrating! We advice lawyers, who have applied for many Golden Visas and residence permits for our customers and can make the process very easy for you. Given the time and headache the lawyers can save you, we think you will find using their services a very worthwhile investment. Es ist kein Geheimnis! Wenn Sie eine Immobilien in Spanien kaufen, können Sie eine spanische Aufenthaltserlaubnis bekommen (das ist die genaue bürokratische Ausdrucksweise für spanisches Golden Visa), die gleichzeitig erlaubt, dass Sie in Europa leben. Die einzige Herausforderung ist der Papierkram und dass Sie mindestens 500.000 € investieren müssen. Weiter zu den Details….. In 2013 hat Spanien ein Gesetz erlassen, dass einem Nicht-EU-Bürger die Aufenthaltserlaubnis genehmigt, im Gegenzug für ein Immobilien Investment von 500.000 € oder mehr. Die Idee ist, ausländische Investoren ins Land zu bringen und Arbeitsplätze zu schaffen. Dies würde die Wirtschaft ankurbeln und die Staatsschulden reduzieren. Wir haben viele Kunden, die diese Möglichkeit des Golden Visa in Anspruch genommen haben. In diesem Artikel beantworten wir die von ihnen meist gestellten Fragen. Wir erklären den Unterschied zwischen Visa und Aufenthaltserlaubnis, über die Art des Immobilienerwerbs, die die Aufenthaltsgenehmigung möglich macht, sowie den Zeitaufwand und mehr! Frage: Kann ich ein spanisches Gold Visa beantragen, wenn ich mehr als eine Immobilie erwerbe, diese aber jeweils unter 500.000 € kosten? Ja, Sie können mehrere Immobilien erwerben um ein Gold Visa zu beantragen, so lange das Gesamtvolumen des Investments über 500.000 €. Frage: Gibt es ein Zeitlimit bis die Käufe getätigt werden müssen? Zum Beispiel, ich kaufe jetzt eine Immobilie und in einem Jahr eine Weitere? Zur Zeit gibt es keine Bedingungen diesbezüglich. Das einzige Problem das auftreten kann ist, dass die spanische Regierung das Gesetz ändert. Wohlgemerkt könnte dieser Fall eintreten. Das spanische Gesetz reagiert auf externe Faktoren. Zum Beispiel wurde das Gesetz für das Gold Visa in 2013 erlassen. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt war eine schwere Wirtschaftskrise, die zum spanischen Immobilien-Crash geführt hatte. Es gab einen riesigen Bestand an nicht-verkauften Immobilien die betroffen waren, von Banken übernommen zu werden. Dies war schwerwiegend für die staatliche und private Verschuldung. Seit die Nachfrage nach heimischen Wohnimmobilien quasi nicht mehr existent war, hat das Land alles getan, ausländische Devisen und Investments zu holen. Wie jedes Gesetz kann sich dieses ebenfalls verändern. Zum Beispiel, sollte die Regierung entscheiden, dass der Ausbau der Infrastruktur interessanter ist als der Verkauf von Immobilien, dies würde Möglichkeiten eröffnen für Infrastruktur Investitionen. Wenn das stattfindet bevor Sie Ihren Antrag gestellt haben, könnte dies negative Auswirkungen haben. Unserer Meinung nach wird es in den nächsten 5 bis 10 Jahren keine besonderen Änderungen geben. Wie auch immer, es ist gut zu wissen, dass es eine geringe Chance gibt, dass sich dieses Gesetz doch ändern könnte. Wir werden Ihnen sagen, warum wir nicht glauben, dass es massgeblichen Änderungen geben wird. Frage: Kann sich das Gesetz rückwirkend ändern bezüglich dem Recht ein Gold Visa zu besitzen? Eine der Grundsätze der spanischen Gesetzgebung ist, dass Gesetzesänderungen niemals rückwirkend greifen können. Das schafft gesetzliche Stabilität betreffend die erlangten Rechte. Rückwirkende Änderungen fanden nur in wenigen Ausnahmen statt. Frage: Wie lange dauert es ein Gold Visa zu bekommen? Wohlgemerkt ist das Verfahren in 2 Schritten zu bewerkstelligen. Als Erstes erhalten Sie ein Visa, das ein Eintrag in Ihrem Passdokument sein wird durch ein spanisches Konsulat. Dieses erlaubt Ihnen nach Spanien ein- und auszureisen, so oft Sie möchten für den Zeitraum eines Jahres.In dieser Zeit sollten Sie nach Spanien reisen und den Antrag auf Aufenthaltserlaubnis stellen. Der Antrag muss in Spanien gestellt werden. Frage: Wie lange ist die Aufenthaltserlaubnis gültig? Die Aufenthaltserlaubnis ist zuerst für 2 Jahre gültig. Danach kann sie für 5 Jahre verlängert werden. Sie können anschliessend die Aufenthaltserlaubnis immer wieder um 5 Jahre verlängern, solange Sie Eigentümer einer Immobilie in Spanien sind. Sie müssen nicht in Spanien bleiben, um eine Verlängerung der Aufenthaltserlaubnis zu erhalten. Frage: Wie beginne ich mit dem Antrag? Um mit dem Antrag der Aufenthaltserlaubnis/Gold Visa zu beginnen, müssen Sie erst einmal eine Immobilie kaufen im Wert von 500.000 €. Sie brauchen die Kaufurkunde zum Beweis des Investments. Informationen wie man die Kaufurkunde erhält und weiter Dokumente, lesen Sie die 5 Schritte die zu tun sind nach dem Kauf einer Immobilie an der Costa del Sol. Frage: Wie lange dauert der Antragsprozedur? Nachdem Sie den Antrag zur Aufenthaltserlaubnis gestellt haben, dauert es ca. 60 Tage. In etwa 30 Tage um die Antragsprozedur zu vervollständigen und 30 Tage bis Sie Ihre ID Karte erhalten. Frage: Kann nur ich selbst das Gold Visa beantragen oder kann der Antrag auch für Familienmitglieder erweitert werden? Das spanische Gold Visa kann sofort auch für Familienmitglieder erweitert werden. Da Spanien eines der besten Plätze auf dieser Welt ist um Kinder gross zu ziehen, ist dies eine attraktive Option wenn Sie eine Familie haben. Ehepartner sowie Kinder unter 18 Jahren erhalten garantiert eine Aufenthaltserlaubnis. Für alle weiteren Familienmitglieder müssen Dokumente vorgelegt werden, die belegen, dass es gesetzlich anerkannte Angehörige sind. Frage: Kann ich eine Finanzierung erhalten für den Kauf der Immobilie? Ja, aber es muss von einer ausländischen Bank sein. Logischerweise sollen 500.000 € an Fremdkapital nach Spanien gebracht werden. Wenn Sie sich Geld einer spanischen Bank leihen, dann bringen Sie kein Geld ins Land. Unser Ratschlag ist entweder die Immobilie mit Eigenkapital zu kaufen oder aber die Finanzierung in Ihrem Land vorab zu regeln. Am Einfachsten wird es sein, die Finanzierung mit einer Bank zu tätigen, mit der Sie seit langer Zeit arbeiten. Frage: Wenn ich die Immobilie durch eine Gesellschaft kaufen will, kann ich trotzdem das Gold Visa bekommen? Ja Sie können. Sie müssen lediglich beweisen, dass Sie direkt oder indirekt Inhaber der Mehrheitsanteile und dass Sie der Bevollmächtigte der Gesellschaft sind, der den Vorstand/Administrador benennen und absetzen kann. Dies muss durch offizielle Dokumente belegt werden, wie zum Beispiel eine Gesellschaftsvertrag/Gründungsurkunde. Diese Dokumente müssen notariell beglaubigt und ins Spanische übersetzt sein. Frage: Gibt es irgendwelche Szenarien, die eine Verlängerung der Aufenthaltserlaubnis verhindern könnten? Grundsätzlich gibt es nur 2 Szenarien des spanischen Gold Visa Programmes, dass die Verlängerung abgelehnt werden würde. Zum Einen, falls Sie Ihre Immobilie verkaufen oder an einen Dritten übertragen würden. Zum Anderen, wenn Sie mit einer kriminellen Vergangenheit behaftet wären. In diesem Falle wäre allerdings bereits der Erstantrag abgelehnt worden. Wenn Sie eine Immobilie erwerben, die mehr als 500.000 € kostet, erhalten Sie ein Visa um mehrmalig einreisen zu können innerhalb eines Jahres. In diesem Zeitraum müssen Sie in Spanien und persönlich den Antrag auf Aufenthaltserlaubnis stellen. Es wir so lange gültig sein so lange Sie Ihre Immobilie in Spanien auf ihren Namen behalten. Sie müssen nicht in Spanien wohnen bleiben, aber Sie müssen jedes Mal, wenn die Aufenthaltserlaubnis verlängert werden soll, persönlich die Verlängerung in Spanien beantragen. Auch deshalb, weil die spanische ID Karte persönlich beantragt werden muss. Wenn Sie sich entscheiden in Spanien zu leben, sind Sie berechtigt nach 5 Jahren die unbefristete Aufenthaltserlaubnis zu beantragen. Hierzu müssen Sie beweisen, dass Sie nicht mehr als 11 Monate ausserhalb Spaniens verbracht haben während den ersten 5 Jahren. Wenn Sie dann die unbefristete Aufenthaltserlaubnis erhalten haben, besteht keine Notwendigkeit mehr zu einer Verlängerung. Es muss dann lediglich die ID Karte verlängert werden, das sehr schnell und einfach von statten geht. Wie Sie sicherlich schon gehört haben, kann es sehr zeitaufwendig, kompliziert und frustrierend sein, sich durch die spanische Bürokratie zu kämpfen! Wir empfehlen Ihnen Anwälte, die bereits Anträge für viele Gold Visas und Aufenthaltsgenehmigungen für unsere Kunden gestellt haben. Dies wird für Sie die Prozedur erheblich erleichtern. Die Zeit und die Kopfschmerzen einem Anwalt zu überlassen, denken wir, wird sich für Sie als lohnendes Investment erweisen. Kontaktieren Sie uns gerne um einen Termin zu vereinbaren zur kostenlosen Beratung.

What risks do women face when seeking advice during pregnancy from pharmacies and natural health retailers? Natural health products are popular among pregnant women in Australasia,1,2 yet potential risks of exposure to teratogenic herbs, vitamins and other substances raise concerns regarding the present lack of effective regulation of the complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) industry in New Zealand. Natural health (or CAM) products, including herb, mineral and vitamin supplements, are marketed for pregnancy on the basis of health promotion as well as to remedy pregnancy-associated ailments such as nausea and vomiting of pregnancy (NVP). The key issue that this study sought to investigate was the risks which a woman may face when seeking advice regarding NVP, and vitamin supplementation during pregnancy from pharmacies and health food stores (HFS) in Greater Wellington. A search of The Yellow Pages telephone directory in February 2010 identified 26 Health Food Stores (HFS) in the Greater Wellington region. Of these, 5 were excluded: 3 were no longer in operation, 1 was a residential property, and 1 specialised in sports supplements. Twenty-one HFS and 21 geographically-matched pharmacies (on the basis of closest location to the HFS) were visited by the same researcher between the months of February to July 2010. With each visit, the researcher commenced a conversation with a retail assistant by saying she was 6–8 weeks pregnant, having problems with morning sickness, and enquiring about any herbal products which the retail assistant could recommend to help reduce nausea. The researcher would then ask what the retail assistant could recommend with regards to vitamin supplementation. Finally she asked which vitamins were important during pregnancy and if there were any to avoid. If questioned by the retail assistant, the researcher would reply, as appropriate, saying she was: 30 years old, married, excited about her first pregnancy, currently working in a clerical office job, and otherwise fit and healthy with no previous medical history. During each interaction, the researcher would take note of the products recommended and their prices, and upon leaving immediately complete a standardised data collection form to document the advice received. The ingredients of each recommended product were later confirmed by searching for the product on the Internet. The NZ MOH Food and Nutrition Guidelines of Healthy Pregnant and Breastfeeding Women (revised 2008) was the standard against which all advice was compared. For ingredients not noted therein, a database search using Medline was performed for evidence of safety during the first trimester of pregnancy. Safe—Product contains ingredients which are not absolutely contraindicated in pregnancy or their daily dose does not exceed the upper limit recommended by NZ MOH guidelines, or, if the ingredient is unknown, there is no evidence that it may be unsafe by Medline search of the literature. Unsafe—Product contains ingredients which are absolutely contraindicated in pregnancy or the daily dose exceeds the upper limit recommended by NZ MOH guidelines, or, if the ingredient is unknown, there is evidence that it may be unsafe by Medline search of the literature. Correct—Dose advised corresponds with NZ MOH guidelines for supplementation with 800 mcg/day in low-risk pregnancy. Incorrect—Folic acid not recommended or dose advised was less than 800 mcg/day. Advice regarding vitamin supplementation in early pregnancy – Vitamin A overdose risk. Safe—Advice given did not pose risk of vitamin A overdose. This includes recommendation of a multivitamin product marketed for pregnancy which did not contain doses of vitamin A exceeding 3000mcg/day of retinol, even without demonstrating explicit vitamin A overdose awareness. Unsafe—Advised that there is no limit to vitamin dosing during pregnancy or recommended a product containing >3000 mcg/day of retinol or advised to take any generic multivitamin. A statistically significant McNemar's test means the marginal proportions of the contingency table are different. In the analysis McNemar’s test is based on an exact test whereas the confidence interval is based on asymptotic (large sample) assumptions. Where more than one product was recommended for nausea, the primary recommended products were compared in one analysis, and then the secondarily recommended products compared separately. The number of matched pharmacies/HFS was based on an earlier study comparing the advice from HFS assistants with that of pharmacy assistants given to an individual presenting with symptoms suggestive of moderate to severe asthma who should be referred to a medical practitioner18 Based on this, it was calculated that the study would need to have 19 store/pharmacy pairs to have 80% power to detect the difference. The study was approved by the Central Regional Ethics Committee. Data was collected from 21 HFS and 21 geographically-matched pharmacies in the Greater Wellington region. The investigator was advised by retail assistants in all the HFS, with 6/21 (28.6%) HFS advising further discussion with a naturopath (n=2) or GP (n=4). In 7/21 pharmacies, advice was indirectly (n=3) or directly (n=4) from the pharmacist. 9/21 (42.9%) of pharmacies referred the researcher to a GP (n=7) and/or midwife (n=2) during the interaction. Table 1 lists the products recommended for nausea and Table 2 summarises other recommendations made, including multivitamin supplementation. In brackets = Number of HPS and P recommendations for the product. *Also contains herb mixture called cardiodoron 250mg/15 drops = Digestion, equiv. fresh plant juice: Hyoscyamus niger, herb 1mg; onopordon acanthium, flower 25mg; Primula veris, flower 25mg. Nausyn is licensed by Medsafe as a Medicine. Advice given for nausea in the first trimester of pregnancy—5/21 (23.8%) of pharmacies and 1/21 (4.8%) of HFS made primary recommendations for nausea which were supported by the NZ MOH guidelines, with a non significant difference in marginal proportions of 19.1% (95%CI -2.3% to 40.4%), p=0.10. Both pharmacies (14/21, 66.7%) and HFS (7/21, 33.3%), made primary recommendations which were contrary to NZ MOH safety guidance. The difference in marginal proportions was 33.4% (95%CI 5.9% to 60.8%), p= 0.07. With regards to recommendations of second-line products which were contrary to MOH safety guidance, this occurred in 7/21 (33.3%) of pharmacies and 10/21 (47.6%) of HFS with a non significant difference in marginal proportions of -14.3% (95%CI -41.6% to 13.0%), p=0.51. The most common reason for a product being considered unsafe was that it provided >1g ginger ± >50 mg pyridoxine in the maximum daily dose as directed (Table 1). 7/21 (33.3%) of pharmacies and 0/21 (0%) of HFS advised GP consultation if nausea did not settle. Due to two zero cell counts in the paired contingency table, it was not possible to calculate McNemar’s test or a confidence interval for the difference in paired proportions. Advice promoting a balanced diet with folic acid supplementation—1/21 (4.8%) of HFS and 0/21 (0%) of pharmacies correctly advised that a balanced diet, along with folic acid supplementation, was recommended during pregnancy in otherwise healthy young women. However, 0/21 of HFS and 18/21 (85.7%) of pharmacies primarily recommended Elevit by Bayer, a multivitamin product which is licensed by Medsafe. Due to zero cell counts in the paired contingency tables, it was not possible to calculate McNemar’s test or a confidence interval for the difference in these paired proportions. Advice regarding folic acid—The majority of those promoting folic acid supplementation advised that this was for the prevention of neural tube defects (14/20 pharmacies and 13/17 HFS). 20/21 (95.2%) of pharmacies and 10/21 (47.6%) of HFS correctly gave dosing recommendations on the basis of national standards, with a difference in marginal proportions of 47.6% (95%CI 22.5% to 72.7%), p=0.006. 1/21 (4.8%) of pharmacies and 4/21 (19.0%) of HFS did not actively recommend taking folic acid supplementation. Advice regarding Vitamin A overdose risk—2/21 (9.5%) of pharmacies and 4/21 (19.0%) of HFS vitamin recommendations were unsafe due to the potential risk of vitamin A overdose, with a non significant difference in marginal proportions of -9.5%, p=0.69. Both pharmacies and HFS recommended products for nausea in early pregnancy which did not adhere with NZ MOH safety guidance. A minority also provided potentially unsafe advice regarding vitamin supplementation. There were no statistically significant differences between stores in the majority of recommendations made, except pharmacies were more likely than matched HFS to advise correctly regarding folic acid dosing. While this difference is unsurprising taking into consideration that pharmacies promote Medsafe-approved folic acid products which only they can sell, it does demonstrate the positive influence of product approval. This study supports the urgent introduction of regulatory reform of the CAM industry and the businesses which sell these products. This study is the fourth in a series of surveys in New Zealand looking at the appropriateness of advice given by pharmacies and HFS for a range of medical conditions. Previous surveys have all raised concerns regarding the advice provided by HFS when compared with pharmacies.18–20 This is the first scenario to find that the standard of advice was, on the whole, similarly matched between both types of store. In fact there was a trend towards the primary promotion of potentially unsafe products for NVP by pharmacies when compared with matched HFS. This is largely due to the primary promotion of homeopathy by HFS, which although only able to offer a placebo effect at best, is inherently safe. There were several limitations of this study. One of these is the possibility of recall bias although advice was entered into a data collection sheet immediately following the interaction to minimize this. The study was limited by the sample size available to the researchers in the greater Wellington region and although no statistically significant differences were found the confidence intervals for the comparisons were quite wide. While this is the first study in New Zealand examining advice given by CAM retailers for a scenario of pregnancy, the closest comparative is a survey carried out in 2003 in North America.21 In this study, advice was sought from HFS via telephone for the treatment of nausea and migraines in early pregnancy. They found that HFS readily made recommendations, 5% of which were for products contraindicated in pregnancy, and most stores primarily promoted ginger for NVP giving incorrect dosing instructions. Since the 1990s the use of CAM has surged worldwide and the World Health Organization actively recommends the regulation of all complementary and herbal medicine products and practitioners.22 This is particularly so in situations where the practice of complementary medicine brings economic benefit. This is to ensure the quality of the service received and thus to protect the public from potential harm. This study supports the introduction of the Natural Health Products Bill in New Zealand (currently before the Health Committee) which is aimed at improving regulation by making pre-marketing ‘product approval’ mandatory, establishing a database of permitted CAM ingredients, requiring product labeling and licensing of CAM product manufacturers.6 This proposed legislation would ensure that commercially available CAM products complied with national guidelines prior to appearing on the shelves. Furthermore it would help ensure the quality of the ingredients used. Analysis of the contents of the recommended products was outside the scope of this study, but it would have been interesting to assess the accuracy of the listed ingredients. Research has demonstrated a wide variation in the constituents of ginger present in commercially available ginger supplements.23 This not only has implications for the rights of the consumer, but lack of standardisation of the products used in research, as exemplified by the variety of preparations used in ginger studies, may create misleading results. Further monitoring of the therapeutic claims made on product labeling is also appropriate; a number of products not registered as medicines by Medsafe, and therefore not permitted to make therapeutic claims, were found to do so. Unfortunately the proposed bill will not address the issue of setting minimum staff training requirements for the promotion of health food goods. Although only a minority provided unsafe advice regarding vitamin supplementation (e.g. 4.8% of pharmacies and 19.0% of HFS did not recommend folic acid) in the context of a retailer presenting themselves as a source of health advice to the public, any unsafe practice is unacceptable. In conclusion, this study found that both HFS and pharmacy staff made potentially unsafe recommendations for nausea and vitamin supplementation in early pregnancy. Many of the pregnancy promoted products recommended often did not adhere to the safety guidance set out by the NZ MOH. This study supports the call for legislative change and high quality research to guide the practice of health care professionals and retailers who sell natural products which may exert both beneficial and harmful effects. There are potential risks to mothers and their unborn babies with the incorrect use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) products during pregnancy. 21 Health Food Stores (HFS) and 21 geographically matched pharmacies were visited by a researcher who sought advice regarding vitamin supplementation and nausea in early pregnancy. A minority of pharmacies and HFS made primary recommendations for nausea which were supported by Ministry of Health guidelines, and both pharmacies and HFS recommended products contrary to these guidelines. Pharmacies were more likely to give advice consistent with MOH recommendations for folic acid. Regulatory reform of CAM products and those who sell them is called for in NZ. Potential risks to mother and foetus exist with the incorrect use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) products during pregnancy. This study aimed to identify the risks that a woman may face when seeking advice during pregnancy from pharmacies and health food stores (HFS) in Greater Wellington (New Zealand). 21 HFS and 21 geographically-matched pharmacies were visited by a researcher who sought advice regarding vitamin supplementation and nausea in early pregnancy using a standardised scenario. Any advice given, including details of recommended products, was documented immediately upon leaving the premises. Proportions were obtained and paired contingency table analysis was used to examine the agreement between the matched pairs. A minority of pharmacies (5/21, 23.8%) and HFS (1/21, 4.8%) made primary recommendations for nausea which were supported by Ministry of Health (MOH) guidelines, and both pharmacies (14/21, 66.7%) and HFS (7/21, 33.3%) recommended products contrary to these guidelines. A greater proportion of pharmacies gave advice consistent with MOH recommended dosage of folic acid supplementation than HFS (20/21, 95.2% vs 10/21, 47.6%). 2/21 (9.5%) of pharmacies and 4/21 (19%) of HFS gave advice with a potential risk of vitamin A overdose. Pharmacies and HFS in Greater Wellington provided potentially hazardous advice, recommending products, often branded for pregnancy, which contradicted NZ MOH guidelines. Regulatory reform of CAM products and those who sell them is called for in New Zealand. Allen T, Thomson WM, Emmerton LM, Poulton R. Nutritional supplement use among 26-year-olds.

The festive season is nearly upon us. We transform our houses and fill it will Christmas trees, lights, holly, decorations, presents and lots of unfamiliar friends and relatives to your dogs! Don’ let your dog eat chocolate as it’s toxic to your dog. If you have chocolate on your Christmas tree or have it wrapped up under the tree – remember your dogs can unwrap it and eat it! Other foodstuffs which are toxic to dogs can be grapes. Also avoid giving raisins, fruit cakes, mince pies, nuts, blue cheese, puddings (alcohol), turkey bones or any COOKED bones! Don’t let your dog chew the Christmas tree. Sounds obvious but most trees are toxic and can cause stomach complaints and make your dog very sick. Pine needles can drop on the floor and get stuck in your dog’s paws causing mild irritation. Vacuum up the pine needles so they don’t get trod on or eaten. Place your Christmas tree in a bucket and water it well to reduce the amount of needles that drop off. Decorations can get eaten and cause blockages so make sure they are out of reach. Place them higher up the tree rather than where your puppy can reach them. Some baubles are made from glass and can smash into shards. This can be very dangerous if your dog tries to eat one. Dogs can also chew through Christmas lights and get an electric shock, so make sure they can’t reach them and always supervise your dog around the Christmas tree. Festive foliage can be toxic to your pets so best to avoid them being ingested altogether! They can cause vomiting & diarrhoea so keep them high up out of the way. Batteries can cause chemical burns and heavy metal poisoning if chewed by your dog. If swallowed, they can cause obstruction and are toxic, so if your dog accidently chew or swallow any batteries then seek veterinary help. We usually like having our presents under the Christmas tree but this is too tempting for puppies and young dogs who can smell them and want to chew on just about anything. Make sure all presents are kept off the floor and supervise your dog near the tree. DANGER – POTENTIALLY LETHAL TO YOUR ANIMALS! Ethylene glycol (antifreeze) is extremely dangerous to your animals and should be kept away from it. It is sweet-tasting and very palatable. Even the smallest quantity can cause serious kidney damage and can be fatal. If your animals are suspected of ingesting antifreeze – seek veterinary attention straight away without delay. Just remember if you can reach anything on your side boards (on your knees), then your dog can reach it too. Don’t leave anything on tables or side boards that your dog could jump up and eat. Keep bins shut away in cupboards or use a lockable bin!

Did you know that it is legal to drive bare foot? This means you do not need to wear shoes when undertaking a driving test! This rule only applies when driving a car (a vehicle that weighs a maximum of 4.5t gross vehicle mass (GVM), built or fitted to carry no more than 12 adults, including the driver). As a safety measure, we recommend that footwear should be worn when operating all other vehicles including motorcycles and mopeds.

100% South African product – from the concept to the superb quality raw materials and execution. Our top priorities were safety and use of natural fibers. Followed by a competitive price and versatility. Fully breathable, temperature regulator, dust mites and mildew free. Merino wool is 100% natural. The natural wool helps regulate body temperature – reducing the risk of overheating or excessive loss of body heat for newborn; keeping your baby snug in winter and cool in summer. The nest has 3 parts: Merino wool Moses mattress/Nesting cushion + Merino wool tubular cot bumper + Cotton cover with zip. The Merino Moses mattress / Nesting Cushion provides support whilst not placing undue pressure on your baby’s developing neck and head – it supports and soothes your baby’s small and growing body. You will find our Nesting Cushion is a medium firmness. With use, the wool gets firmer, to perfect the transition to a correct spine and back support. The Merino tubular cot bumper which goes on top on the mattress all around, keeps the baby snug and safe, whilst has the same amazing health properties of the wool. The Zipped Cotton cover made out of most beautiful and soft knitted cotton, holds everything together. The pockets of air created all around the bumper by the cotton cover, give the peace of mind for the baby’s safety. Nothing goes to waste after the baby grows out of the nest, around 6-7 months. You can use the cot bumper in your cot and later on in the single / toddler bed as anti-falling safeguard under the fitted sheet. The Merino nesting cushion can be used to sleep the baby on until the baby fully grows out of it. And later on you can use it as a pillow. Keep the dust mites away forever! You can use our Merino Baby nest with our Mattress Protector Puddle Pads, placed on the mattress inside the nest cover. These allow air to circulate freely and they are our natural alternative to plastic mattress protectors. Puddle Pads will eliminate the need for frequent cleaning of the mattress itself. Use it with our Moses Basket or on its own directly in the cot or for co-sleeping. For small stains, ‘spot’ hand wash with lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Rinse with cool water and allow to drain before drying flat. Ensure the mattress is totally dry before using it again. Turn the mattress over and rotate each week. Air regularly.

On May 19, John “Tig” Tiegen, veteran of the U.S. military and Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and contributor to the New York Times bestselling book, 13 Hours: The Inside Account of What Really Happened in Benghazi, shared his intense story about saving lives, the ensuing mental challenges, and his journey back to stronger mental health. The lecture was generously sponsored by Fluor Corporation as part of a special Highland Capital Management Warrior and First Responder Reunion event. A former sergeant and infantry squad leader, Tiegen applied his military training as a security protection contractor on missions in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq. He was an essential part of the rapid response to the terrorist attack on the American diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya on September 11, 2012, which left four Americans dead. Tiegen participated in the Center for BrainHealth’s high-performance brain training program after transitioning back to civilian life. He knows firsthand the challenges faced by those who serve our country and communities in high-stakes roles. Before the lecture, warriors and first responders were invited to a special reunion, with food and beverages, live music, and information from the Brain Performance Institute’s Veteran Service Organization (VSO) partners. This event, which was conceptualized by the Brain Performance Institute’s philanthropic partner, Highland Capital Management, aimed to bring awareness to the physical and emotional impact that first responders, law enforcement personnel, military veterans and many others experience.

A preforeclosure short sale is just a quick sale before foreclosure. These days this is a quite widespread resolution for a property that is underwater and presently owned by a homeowner in the middle of a serious economic hardship. This agreement amongst the lender, owner, and interested buyer makes it possible for the homeowner to stay away from foreclosure by selling the home for significantly less than is owed on the loan prior to the home is place into the foreclosure process by the lender or mortgage servicer. In truth, the circumstance is far from easy. Germany and the Netherlands have promised their parliaments that they will not ask for much more money for Greece unless the IMF also resumes lending to Greece. But the IMF says it will not do this unless it is satisfied that Greece’s debt burden is sustainable. For the IMF, this is a question of institutional credibility. It has already put its name to two failed programs, and it is determined that it will only join a third program if it is convinced that Greece can return to the markets at the finish of it, its monetary sovereignty restored. Excellent lens Joan with some fantastic concepts. It tends to make sense to give anything that is not going to price much more. We cut out Xmas allowances in half this year. We have a no kitchen gadget rule in our family members (except cake decorating factors as that is a hobby) as it is regarded as a functioning gift. And clothing are a no no as well as they are quite personal. Besides vintage is in these days and you can get Jeans for £3.50! What we do is say the limit amount then just do a list withing that value variety of items we would like to make it simpler for individuals. Xmas is the 1 time our loved ones spends on a a lot more luxury item that we wouldn’t otherwise get for ourselves. Of course that’s correct. But it is far from clear that the finance sector, in total, creates unfavorable value. Without having a finance sector, our economy would crash and burn and die. So some constructive worth is being created. Officials are racing to make headway ahead of December 5, the last scheduled meeting this year of eurozone finance ministers. The IMF has indicated it will seek to determine by the finish of 2016 on its participation. EconEdLink is for teachers and parents. It really is my go-to site for lesson plans on cash and economics.

Fucus is a genus of brown alga in the Class Phaeophyceae to be found in the intertidal zones of rocky seashores almost everywhere in the world. The thallus is perennial with an irregular or disc-shaped holdfast or with haptera . The erect portion of the thallus is dichotomous or subpinnately branched, flattened and with a distinct midrib. Gas-filled pneumatocysts (air-vesicles) are present in pairs in some species, one on either side of the midrib. The erect portion of the thallus bears cryptostomata and caecostomata (sterile surface cavities). The base of the thallus is stipe-like due to abrasion of the tissue lateral to the midrib and it is attached to the rock by a holdfast. The gametangia develop in conceptacles embedded in receptacles in the apices of the final branches. They may be monoecious or dioecious. These algae have a relatively simple life cycle and produce only one type of thallus which grows to a maximum size of 2 m. Fertile cavities, the conceptacles, containing the reproductive cells are immersed in the receptacles near the ends of the branches. After meiosis oogonia and antheridia are produced and released, fertilization follows and the zygote develops directly into the diploid plant. It may be considered to be analogous to the life cycle of the flowering plant. but in algae the oogonia are released and fertilised in the sea while in flowering plants the ovules are fertilised while attached to the parent plant and then released as a seed. Species of Fucus are recorded almost world-wide. They are dominant on the shores of the British Isles , the northeastern coast of North America and California . In the British Isles these larger brown algae occur on sheltered shores in fairly well defined zones along the shore from high water mark to below low water mark. On the more exposed shores not all of these species can be found and on very exposed shores few, if any, occur. Pelvetia canaliculata forms a zone at the top of the shore. Just below this Fucus spiralis, Fucus vesiculosus and Fucus serratus and Laminaria form clear zones, one below the other, along the shore down to low water mark. On sheltered shores Ascophyllum nodosum usually forms a broad and dominating zone along the shore at the mid-littoral. On very exposed shores few if, any plants, of these species can be found. Other brown algae can be found at the low-littoral such as Himanthalia, Laminaria saxatilis and Alaria esculenta. Small green and red algae and animals occur, protected under these large brown algae . Clow and Clow indicate four species of seaweed as sources for kelp: Fucus vesiculosus, Ascophyllum nodosum (formerly Fucus nodosus L.), Fucus serratus, andLaminaria digitata (Hudson) J.V. Lamouroux (formerly Fucus digitatus L.). The Fucus species names noted in this book as sources of kelp do not reflect modern taxonomy for these species, which has been updated using Algaebase. The purest barilla had a sodium carbonate concentration of about 30%. It has been reported that to loosen dried earth a machine which sticks probes a meter into the ground and loosens the earth by blasting air in under pressure. Dried seaweed (bladderwrack) can then be injected into the fissures to hold the drainage cracks open . In 2005, it was announced that bacteria grown on Fucus have the ability to attack and kill the MRSA superbug . * = Species recorded around the coast of Britain. F. distichus is up to 10 cm long with a short stout cylindrical stipe, branching dichotomous, flat and with a mid-rib . F. distichus subsp. edentatus was first described from Shetland Islands by Börgesen in 1903. Powell found F. distichus subsp. anceps on the north coast of Caithness . It had also been recorded from: Orkney Islands , Fair Isle , St Kilda and the Outer Hebrides in Scotland ; in Ireland it had been recorded from Counties Clare , Donegal and Kerry . Two subspecies of F. distichus (subsp. anceps and subsp. edentatus) have been described from the British Isles . Fucus distichus is the organism used as a model to study the development of cell polarity, since it forms an apolar zygote that can develop polarity given a varying number of gradients. F. serratus, toothed wrack, is the most distinctive of all the Fucus species. It clearly shows a distinctive serrated edge to the frond not shown by the other species of the genus . F. spiralis is one of the three most common algae on the shores of the British Isles. It grows to about 40 cm long and does not show air bladders or a toothed edge as is found on F.vesiculosus and F. serratus. It forms a zone near the top of the shore above the zones of F. vesiculosus and F. serratus. This is one of the most common species of Fucus, common on most shores in the mid-littoral. Readily identified by a distinct mid-rib and air vesicles in pairs on either side of the mid-rib .

The recent death of children that happened in Bihar due to improper management of the mid day meal scheme opens up another Pandora’s box of the problems related to one of the largest government schemes in India. One such issue is the use of modern technologies, such as food fortification and ready-to-use therapeutic foods, as a “magic bullet” solution to solve the problems of malnutrition in India. However, this food technology-dependent, single-solution approach fails to understand the complex and multiple linkages of the problem of malnutrition as it occurs in the rural areas and urban slums of the country. It is obvious to everyone that the major determinants of childhood malnutrition include inadequate food availability, high rate of infections and lack of awareness. In the global context, it has been established that half of malnutrition load is due to those infections caused due to poor water supply and sanitation. The case of India cannot be any different as water supply systems are poor and inadequate in the country and diarrhoea is still one of the leading causes of child mortality. In India the problem of malnutrition is predominantly viewed as the responsibility of the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) programme, which has been responsible for supplementary feeding and growth monitoring of children. The current ICDS programme, which is under the Ministry of Women and Child Development, has neither the mandate nor the machinery to address the prevention of infection among children or to treat them during illness, which is in fact contributing significantly to the problem of malnutrition. This was obvious when it was found that a quarter of those children who were treated for malnutrition at a Nutrition Rehabilitation Centres (NRCs), a new institutional setting under the health department which combines feeding, treatment and awareness creation to severely malnourished children to prevent malnutrition deaths, were readmitted to the same centres within a duration of one year. Here, two aspects are important; first, initiatives like NRCs are only a crisis management initiative which can only prevent deaths due to malnutrition and not the problem of malnutrition per se. Drawing from this is the second aspect, which is that any intervention to address the problem of malnutrition should have potential to prevent occurrence of illness among children, which calls for ensuring safe water supply and sanitation, a widely ignorant sector in rural areas and urban slums. Closely related to it is the access to health services system so that disease and infections do not interfere with the growth of the child. In one of the tribal blocks of Madhya Pradesh, it was found that there were around five to seven episodes of illness with durations of 12-16 days reported in a year among those children who are poorly nourished. This means that several children remain ill for almost 70 to 80 days in a year, a duration that restricts normal growth further, making them more susceptible to malnutrition-infection cycle. The solution to address the problem of malnutrition hence calls for not only better feeding programme, but ensuring safe drinking water and sanitation together with access to health care for treating minor illnesses. In short, the problem of malnutrition has to be understood in its broader dimension as it is just the tip of the iceberg of the underlying social development of a nation that fails to ensure basic employment, safe water supply and sanitation and primary health care. Any attempt to project the problem of malnutrition as a techno-managerial inadequacy not only will divert the focus leading to the adoption of unsuccessful strategies but also hamper the opportunity to correct the basic services that are faulty at the grassroots level. A proper public health approach to malnutrition calls for ensuring food security, prevention of illness and better treatment facility along with the need to provide opportunities for safe livelihood.

"Certain practices clearly do not constitute good governance on any definition. If a succession of military dictators in a resource-rich country in a poor part of the world siphon off as much as $27 billion of the public's money, economic performance and the poor are likely to suffer. Those responsible for such abuses, and the international banks that eagerly transfer their funds to safe havens, must be held accountable. Other forms of institutionalized corruption are far less extreme but may, nevertheless, limit economic growth and result in low levels of support for the poor. IN THE MINDS OF SOME, "governance" when applied to the international realm still conjures up images of world government, of centralized bureaucratic behemoths trampling on the rights of people and states. Nothing is less desirable. WEAK STATES are one of the main impediments to effective governance today, at national and international levels alike. Notwithstanding the institutional turmoil that is often associated with globalization, there is no other entity in sight that competes with or can substitute for the state. YET NO LEGAL PRINCIPLE--not even sovereignty--can ever be invoked to excuse crimes against humanity. And where such crimes occur and peaceful attempts to halt them have been exhausted, the international community has a moral duty to act. The fact that we cannot protect people everywhere is no reason for doing nothing when we can. ARMED INTERVENTION must always remain the option of last resort, but in the face of mass murder it is an option that cannot be relinquished. Nothing is more inimical to pro-growth, anti-poverty objectives than armed conflict. COUNTRIES THAT HAVE ACHIEVED higher growth are those that have successfully integrated into the global economy and attracted foreign investment. But, as the economic benefits of education and skills increase, so does income inequality between those people who have them and those who do not. This is true both within and among countries. POOR COUNTRIES, especially those with significant inequality between ethnic and religious communities, are far more likely to be embroiled in conflicts than rich ones. Most such conflicts are internal; they almost invariably create problems for neighbours or generate a need for humanitarian assistance. POOR COUNTRIES often lack the capacity and resources to implement environmentally-sound policies. This undermines the sustainability of their people's meager existence, and makes the effects of their poverty even worse. IT IS NOW WIDELY ACCEPTED that economic success depends on the quality of governance a country enjoys. Good governance comprises the rule of law, effective state institutions, transparency and accountability in the management of public affairs, respect for human rights, and the participation of all citizens in the decisions that affect their lives. A FAIR AND TRANSPARENT public expenditure and taxation system is a key ingredient. Revenues must be used wisely to make sound investments in physical and social infrastructure for all. Excessive regulation, by contrast, impedes economic performance and slows growth. Help strengthen the capacity of states to govern, not undermine them further.

Warner Music Group artists Bruno Mars and the Red Hot Chili Peppers saw their respective albums race to the top of the iTunes charts Monday. Mars took the No. 1 slot — up from No. 4 on Sunday — with his second album, “Unorthodox Jukebox,” while his first album, “Doo-Wops & Hooligans,” ranked No. 3. Disney’s album “Frozen” separated the two. Meanwhile “Red Hot Chili Peppers: Greatest Hits” hit the No. 6 position, jumping 19 slots from Sunday. Len Blavatnik’s Warner Music Group hasn’t fielded a Super Bowl artist since Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers back in 2008, and the fact that both artists have their recording and publishing catalogs with Warner makes the news all the more profitable. Meanwhile, Verizon reported that its data connections rose 800 percent versus last year. The astounding increase — no doubt attributable to people sharing photos — came during the halftime show.

It started with a little flower and a bunch of self love!!! It was a special day for a few different reasons. It was my Mum’s 64th birthday; she is radiant and sweet and I love her! The Self Love Series also kicked off with the first of five, two hour sessions at the Centennial Dining room, hosted by Bec Caines, our Daily Guru ‘go to’!! The location of the venue was visually stunning. The start time coinciding with a perfect autumn sunset in Sydney. I arrived early (my usual habit of not checking times and guessing it was around 6 – I was off by half an hour). I had to check myself for a moment; my pre-work was ‘self love’. Can you answer what you’re presently challenged with? I know I’m loving myself some days more than others. But what am I challenged with? Great question! OK, so how is my own well-being and happiness? I’ve been doing a bit of work on this lately so I’ve got a few ideas… I think? I jotted down some private thoughts based around my core desired feelings, however really had to dig a bit deeper for this one. The greeting at registration was warm and we were shown around to allow time to network and browse some of the merchandise stands. There were beautiful Tibetan and Indian home-wares from Decoco home and I had the pleasure of meeting the lovely Karen from Combardis Elixir who is the creative mind behind the 100% natural aromatherapy body and face mists. Her generosity extended to us receiving a lovely tester which has been put to great use already. The connection to a mediation and affirmation for each mist is beautiful. Very soulful and mindful. I’m usually very nervous going into events. Asking myself, what am I going to talk about, who are these people, they must be better than me and much more successful – I’ve been realising of late that we’re all on a similar journey and I believe in myself. It must be my first time arriving to something like this in a very present state of mind. There was no worry, no thinking, just enjoying and letting my evening flow with my dear friend Jarka. We had a beautiful bunch of flowers from Little flowers to surprise us on our front row seats. Bec delivered the intro for our very pregnant and glowing speaker, Debbie Spellman. Debbie created Mind Detox (what a great term) – I’ve been detoxing my mind for the past 3 weeks after resigning from my corporate gig, which was no longer serving me. What I loved about Debbie’s insights, as well as her absolutely stunning slides reflecting soft summer images, were the basic tools provided to help us question ourselves during our daily life … identifying what we find difficult to change, such as negative thoughts and limiting beliefs. Creating new evidence on these creepy crawly thoughts that pop into our head. As Debbie most rightly pointed out, these thoughts are not real unless we make them real. Recreating that false thought of not being good enough or being hopeless is only our own perception. I particularly liked Debbie’s reference to thoughts being like a pathway at age 15, and then growing to a highway during our 20’s and then, if reinforced, suddenly becoming a super highway and running out of control in your 30s 40s and beyond. Going back to my Mum, who I suspect was never asked about what self believe she’s struggling with, I feel so blessed, grateful and abundant having people like Bec, Debbie and Jarka in my life to provoke these thoughts and feelings for all generations. To be present in this moment and to catch those self-sabotaging words that women and men put into their heads creating a life long toxic mind of worry, fear and resentment, is priceless. Start being kind to yourself and observe the positive changes taking affect.

Business process automation (BPA) is the use of technology to automate activities or services that accomplish a specific function or workflow. It is a crucial part of digital transformation, as it increases service quality, improves delivery time, and contains costs in any operation. Within our BPA solutions, automated business processes are managed collectively to improve an organization’s overall workflow by achieving greater efficiency, adapting to changing business needs, reducing human error, and clarifying job roles and responsibilities. Like a train track, a well implemented BPA solution ensures your processes reach their intended goal in an accurate and timely manner. And embedded tracking functions enable you to keep an eye on the status of your processes within the established workflow. Business processes are typically triggered by an event, such as the filing of an expense report. This trigger event initiates a set of predefined processes, or workflow steps. The workflow concludes when the final step is taken, such as when the employee is reimbursed for the submitted expenses. When you automate a workflow, you create an owner for each step of the process. Typical steps include initiation of a transaction, input of related data, and eventual approval or rejection. Each is bound to one or more individuals expected to perform an action as part of the step. Our process automation solutions keep track of each transaction as it passes through the workflow. At any point along the way, stakeholders and others granted permission can open a record to determine its status, or they can generate reports for a bigger picture of progress as a team. Enabling this level of information transparency in your business process reinforces the accountability of all stakeholders. The goal of BPA is not only to automate business processes, but to simplify and improve business workflows as well. BPA can be a standalone initiative or part of a larger, overarching business process management strategy. This Agile approach enables us to meet your mission and business needs for BPA while reducing time, cost, and risk. We ensure every project benefits from repeatable, effective, and efficient practices. Contact us today and let us show you how our BPA solutions can dramatically boost the efficiency of your operations.

Multimedia artist Joyce Yu-Jean Lee presented footage of her art installations, which exemplify how visual culture shapes notions of truth and the “other” on Friday, Feb. 16 in Kendall Hall as part of the College’s Brown Bag series. Lee, who teaches at New Jersey City University and the Fashion Institute of Technology, had no plans to become an artist in her early life. She attended the University of Pennsylvania as a double major in communications and psychology with plans to work in fashion marketing. Two weeks after she returned to school from her summer internship in New York City, some of Penn’s Wharton School of Business alumni who worked at the World Trade Center were killed during the 9/11 attacks. This changed the way Lee saw the world. “If I die tomorrow, with no warning whatsoever, what do I want to be in the middle of doing?” Lee recalled asking herself at the time. Lee turned to art to process what was happening and make sense of the influx of information and images coming from the media following the 9/11 attacks. Today, Lee is highly selective in the way she consumes news. She does not watch or own a television. Lee believes our relationship with the media has a profound impact on the way we understand society and view others. “While contemporary media washes over us, we can sometimes get lulled to sleep and we don’t realize what’s happening,” Lee said. She encouraged the audience to pause and consider how media influences their perspective of the world around them. Lee’s recent project, FIREWALL, a pop-up interactive art installation, was displayed at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York City and the Oslo Freedom Forum in Norway. The project compared the disparities of America’s Google search engine to China’s Baidu in an effort to shed insight on how internet censorship produces different results in different countries, and to create discussion about internet rights and freedoms. FIREWALL garnered the attention of Chinese authorities when Lu Miaoqing, the only lawyer to win two cases over China’s single child policy, prepared to participate on Lee’s feminist activists panel. The night before the panel, the Chinese government reached out to Miaoqing’s law firm and forbade her to work with Lee or to ever speak publicly again. Miaoqing is now on academic asylum in the U.S. Lee’s latest exhibit, State of the DysUnion, is on display at NJCU’s Visual Arts Gallery until March 1. This project presents a snapshot of today’s journalism, advertising and the internet influenced by “alternative facts” and “fake news” discussed in the media. The project is displayed as an eight-foot cylindrical screen. The first chapter shows a variety of news clippings, that include both liberal and conservative articles. The piece rotates front-page international news stories from the day Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election. The next chapter of the installation shows drone footage of the first Women’s March in 2017, from every location around the world, overlaid with footage from this past summer’s California wildfire. The piece showcases the magnitude of the reaction to Trump’s election while the wildfire footage represents how the media builds energy of its own. Lee uses her art to help figure out how to navigate personal agency in the midst of today’s confusing media landscape. In her 2012 performative activist exhibition, Made in China, at (e)merge Art Fair, Lee dressed up as a Chinese factory worker with a peddler’s cart who created limited edition works of art. Behind her, a screen displayed other factory workers making the products she was selling. This project served as an effort to point at the hypocrisy surrounding the U.S.’ relationship with China and trade. Lee feels that artists have a specific role in society — to function as a mouthpiece. They produce works based on the emotions and conditions of the present day, operating as a societal barometer. Through her art, Lee hopes to continue to serve American culture by highlighting important issues that often go undiscussed, and by challenging our country’s standards for communication.

Employers are accountable for the benefit options offered to employees. According to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), fiduciaries are liable for losses to a benefit plan. This applies if the losses occurred as a result of their alleged errors or omissions or breach of their fiduciary duties. Employees and the government can file a lawsuit against a company, its fiduciaries, and its plans. This is why most companies should consider the protections offered by fiduciary liability coverage. Fiduciary liability coverage can protect against several types of claims. Some of the most common include denial of benefits, administrative errors, improper advice or counsel, and wrongful termination of a plan. Any company that offers a retirement plan might need protection against errors in plan administration and breaches of duty under ERISA. Fiduciary Liability Insurance also fills the gaps in traditional coverage. General Liability (GL) insurance or Directors and Officers (D&O) liability insurance doesn’t cover every possible lawsuit against fiduciaries. A business needs protection against the more expensive and complex ERISA violation claims. Fiduciaries without fiduciary liability insurance will have to pay for lawsuit defense costs, judgments, and settlements on their own. It’s possible to mitigate fiduciary liability exposure, but not entirely eliminate it. Having fiduciary liability coverage is the best way to protect a business.

John's account of the giving of the Holy Spirit on Easter differs from the account of the Pentecost event in the Acts of the Apostles. Still, his short account with its double salutation of 'Peace be with you" gives that common greeting new significance for the early followers of Jesus and for us today. Coupled with the commission of being sent forth as Jesus had been sent by the Father, it sets the stage for their reception of the Holy Spirit with its power and responsibility of forgiveness. Once upon a time a new family moved into a neighborhood. It was a nice neighborhood and it was very close to where the Daddy worked, so close he could walk to work. There was only one thing wrong with the neighborhood. Most people weren’t Irish! Yes, that’s true there are such neighborhoods! They were Mexican and Thai, Jewish and Korean, Japanese and Indian, Polish and Columbian, Lebanese and Chinese and just about every other nationality that you could imagine. The children in the neighborhood swarmed around the new kids. Are you really Irish? We don’t have any Irish living in our neighborhood. What’s it like to be Irish? Can you teach us Irish songs and dances and tell us Irish stories? God made us all different and we enjoy it! All Irish neighborhoods are BORING! O living God, come and make our souls temples of thy Spirit. Baptize thy whole Church with fire, that the divisions soon may cease, and that it may stand before the world as a pillar and buttress of thy truth. Grant us all the fruits of thy Holy Spirit: brotherly love, joy, peace, patience, goodwill and faithfulness. May the Holy Spirit speak by the voice of thy servants, here and everywhere, as they preach thy word. Send thy Holy Spirit, the comforter, to all who face adversity, or who are the victims of men's wickedness. Preserve all nations and their leaders from hatred and war, and build up a true community among nations, through the power of thy Spirit. Spirit of knowledge and devotion, Spirit of obedience to the Lord. 31 May the glory of the LORD endure for ever, may the LORD rejoice in his works.

A row of identically-shaped perfume bottles are all turned so that the labels face away from me. As I struggle to give coherent answers to a series of questions about the first fragrances I remember, my preferences in accessories and fashion, my lifestyle and habits, I can’t help feeling a little sceptical. I own nothing with a designer label and my own ideas of my personal style are hazy at best. And besides, no fragrance smells horrible, so surely I am bound to like whatever is selected for me. I am attending a fragrance profiling session with Kris Dembinsky, Head of Global Sales for Penhaligon’s, an English perfume house whose fragrances are now available in the Cayman Islands, exclusively at Le Visage in Camana Bay. Founded in 1870 by Cornish barber William Penhaligon, the brand keeps the unorthodox spirit of its creator alive. Staying firmly out of the mainstream, Penhaligon’s follows its own quirky, individual path. It is not just the exclusivity that sets Penhaligon’s apart from the masses (you will not find these fragrances in high street department stores – try Harrods or Saks Fifth Avenue instead) but also their tradition of going against the grain: Penhaligon, court barber and perfumer to Queen victoria, was working in an era characterised by prudence and austerity; his style however was flamboyant, exotic and unorthodox – something which shone through in the fragrances he created. His first fragrance, Hammam Bouquet, was inspired by the Turkish bath house adjacent to his barber shop. It was designed to capture the hot steaminess and exoticism of the hammam. The fragrance is still sold today, an impressive tale of longevity, considering that nowadays around 300 new fragrances hit department store shelves each year, and within two years 85 per cent of these have been discontinued. Every perfume created at Penhaligon’s has its own unique story. Rather than creating a fragrance to go with a mass marketing campaign, at Penhaligon’s perfumers are given free rein to take their inspiration from places, people and activities. The most recent fragrance, Sartorial, was inspired by a tailor’s workroom in London’s Savile Row and captures the smells and materials of the room: fabric, paper patterns, beeswax and chalk. As Penhaligon’s reputation and his appeal to the upper classes spread, he began to receive requests for bespoke fragrances. Blenheim Bouquet was created for the Duke of Marlborough in 1902 and, typically breaking with tradition, Penhaligon came up with the first citrus based fragrance to be produced in England. Up until then, fragrances had all been dense, heavy and musky, designed to overpower the unpleasant odours of Victorian London. This light, refreshing fragrance continues to be a best seller today. This quintessentially English brand has continued to create fragrances favoured by the aristocracy, receiving two Royal Warrants – marks of recognition awarded by members of the Royal Family who have been supplied with the company’s goods or services. The iconic plain glass bottles, the old-fashioned paper labels and the very names – Elisabethan Rose, Racquets Formula, Jubilee Bouquet – all seem to evoke images of British gentility. Interestingly however, although many of the fragrances are steeped in history, they do not smell in any way out-dated. Dembinsky selects a number of fragrances for me to try out. Despite my earlier conviction that I was bound to like them all, I actually reject the first two immediately. The next two I like, and the last one I don’t. I realise I don’t actually know the right words to describe what I smell, but one seems sweet and cloying, another too ‘pink’ and flowery, the last too harsh. Having narrowed down the “families” of fragrances my preferences lie in, I am then offered some alternatives from the families I like. The concept of fragrance profiling has been around for some time, but the practice has really been perfected in the last two years. At Penhaligon’s staff are trained as ‘fragrance specialists’ rather than sales people and are experts on both their own range of perfumes, and other brands. Dembinsky emphasises that it is important that specialists do not ask questions about the specific smells someone likes, but rather aim to build up a picture of the client’s personality, style and outlook. The perfume names are kept hidden from view, lest you be influenced by them, or the associations you make with them. My final choice turns out to be Quercus. I couldn’t have told you off the bat why I liked this particular one, but when I learn the name is Latin for oak, and that it was inspired by the strength and solidity of those trees, I think maybe I do smell wood, foliage and the cool, fresh smell of a forests. A further dimension of the brand’s unconventional approach is the fact that fragrances are not designed specifically for men or for women, and indeed my preferred choice is purchased by both genders in equal proportions. The profiling service is available through the website www.penhaligons.com, where you can answer a series of questions and within a few days will receive a personalised email (not an automated response) suggesting two or three fragrances you will like. You can then drop into Le Visage to try them out, or, even better you can now be fragrance profiled right in the store. Penhaligon’s has expanded over the years and now offers a range of bath oils, shower gels, soaps, body lotions, candles and more. Another service they offer, and something you can practice at home, is fragrance layering. The idea is that you first wash with the scented soap, oil, or gel, then moisturise with a lotion of the same smell, follow this with a dusting of talcum powder and finish off with a spray of the perfume. By creating layers of the same basic scent on the skin, it creates a noticeable depth of fragrance. I had a mini-version of this done on my hands and at the end of the day I am still inhaling deeply and day dreaming of clean air and shadowy woodlands….

The very first thing we need to do is thank our entire team for the work and sacrifice it took to make this happen. Some of our team are businesses that we work with every day at Offroad Design, companies like Tom Woods Driveshaft’s, TrailReady wheels, PSC steering, King Shocks and Premier Power Welder have been helping keep our race and trail vehicles at the top of their game for nearly a decade! A little newer to the team but no less important are Amsoil fluids and filters, Lightforce lights, Bighorn Graphics, Nitto Tires and Stage 8 Fasteners. All of these companies are full of people that are great to deal with on an everyday basis and do their best to make our customer’s vehicles and ours own rigs perform their best. Also another important addition for this race was from FOURWHEELER Magazine, Feature Editor Robin Stover. Robin joined our team to cover our effort. The race starting line was in Beatty, it was the normal starting chaos, lots of cars, lots of dust, and we were passing stopped cars and being passed in the first few miles. I can say I was EXTREMELY glad to be driving a 4wd with 37’s on it in the silt and hills, there were stuck vehicles all over and we just drove around everything, the entire race. We were getting behind on checkpoint closing times and had to run super hard to stay in the race and whacked a boulder at high speed and flattened a tire. We lost enough time that we didn’t make the next checkpoint, and were turned back by course officials at mile 215. We started Day 2 and had a pretty good run up to pit 2 where we added fuel. About 10 miles from the finish we saw the 4461 stopped and thought we finally had them but came blazing up to see a BITD race official stopping both of us with a stopwatch. The course was closed to recover another vehicle. They took our times coming in and out and even released us with the same split. We came into the checkers about a minute behind and had no idea who won the day, all we knew was that it was a great afternoon of racing. We didn’t find out that we’d come in first on time till the next morning when we lined up for the start. Day 3 started and the shocks did an amazing job soaking up the hits and we drove right on with nothing but speeding hearts and even more respect for the King shock package to show for it. That rocky summit to the finish line was mostly uneventful and we rolled through the hot finish about 45 seconds in front of the 4435. On corrected time they had the day and as the only Ultra4 to finish all 3 days they also took the overall leaving us in 2nd place for the race. We met our team at the finish, did the cool live interview and took off for the hotel in Reno for a hot shower and post race party and a little sleep before the long drive home.

Born: 22 October 1868, Chicago, Illinois, United States of America. Died: 17 April 1946, Johannesburg, South Africa. John Wilkinson Kirkland was educated at private schools in the United States, Germany and Switzerland, and qualified as Bachelor of Science (BSc) in mechanical engineering at Cornell University in 1889. From that year he worked for the Thomson-Houston Electric Company of Boston, Massachusetts, for three years and then for its successor, the General Electric Company, from 1892. In 1895 he became assistant to the manager of the company's lighting department in New York. In March 1898 he was sent to Johannesburg as representative of the General Electric Company of New York. The next year he established the South African General Electric Company, of which he was still vice-president by 1919. Kirkman had a keen intellect and was a fluent debater. Upon his arrival in Johannesburg he joined the short-lived South African Society of Electrical Engineers, which had been founded in 1897. In July 1898 he read a paper on "Electric haulage" before its members, and in March 1899 one on "The rotary converter." Shortly after the conclusion of the Anglo-Boer War (1899-1902) he argued for the centralisation of power generation on the Witwatersrand in his paper "Central electric power stations for gold mines" (Journal of the Mechanical Engineers' Association of the Witwatersrand, 1902-1903, Vol. 1(8), pp. 134-139 and 1903-1904, Vol. 2(8), pp. 220-224). In 1910 he became a member of the South African Institute of Electrical Engineers (founded in 1909), served as its president for 1913/4, and was elected an honorary member in 1934. Among others he contributed a paper on "The electrification of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St Paul Railway" to its Transactions (1917, Vol. 8, pp. 164-172, 190-209). He was a foundation member of the South African Association for the Advancement of Science in 1902 and though his membership lapsed after 1906, he rejoined the association in 1913 and by 1918 was a member of council. A paper by him on "An electric vehicle charging plant" was published in the association's Report for 1917 (pp. 525-527). He was also a member of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, an associate member of the (British) Institution of Mining and Metallurgy, and a member of the South African Institution of Engineers. He served as president of the latter in 1922/3. In April 1920 he was elected joint vice-president of the newly founded Associated Scientific and Technical Societies of South Africa. Kirkland married Elena Hellman in 1903. They had at least one son, who joined his father in the firm J.W. Kirkland and son. This engineering firm, with headquarters in Johannesburg, became prominent during the nineteen-twenties and was active in several countries. The elder Kirkland became a mental patient in 1937 and died from Korsakoff's psychosis nine years later. Draper, J.R.

As many strip malls and big-box stores as there are, the vast majority of engineers can claim experience in this area and so do we. In particular we have worked on strip centers that are speculative such that we are designing the electrical and mechanical services before the actual retail tenant is defined. This type of approach requires detailed discussions with the owner so that all parties understand the impact and implication of assumptions and decisions. We have worked on a number of strip centers in Oklahoma and Texas. Riverwalk Crossing in Jenks, Oklahoma and Kings Landing in Tulsa, Oklahoma are two centers with distinct styles for which we provided design services. We have also designed a number of specialty retail stores and grocery stores. Those have included new buildings, tenant build-outs, and analysis of existing spaces for owners proposed use.

It was sometime in August 1983, during a casual conversation between Vindhya members on music festivals in Cleveland and Pittsburgh , the early idea of having a music Festival of our own was born. Usha Char, former Director of All India Radio, Bangalore , India , volunteered to coach interested singers in Pancha Ratna Kritis and other songs of Thyagaraja and Purandaradasa. Mr. Char, the then President of VCA, was very supportive and instrumental in chalking our initial plans for the first Music Festival. Until then, VCA had not undertaken a function of this magnitude. Naturally, selling this idea to the then VCA Executive Members was not easy, to say the least. Char, sensing the magnitude of the task ahead, insisted on getting voluntary contributions. Needless to say, there was overwhelming support from the community for this endeavor! Char formed a Committee which initially included Usha &Char , Meera &Dr. Asur Srinivasan, Sumathi & Ram anathan, Geetha & myself. We met in long sessions many times, mostly in Char’s house. Despite disagreements about various things, we all stuck to the core idea of making the function a grand success. The first music class was held at Usha’s house on Vijayadasami day with pooja, prasadam and devotion. Men and women with hidden musical talents started practicing together from that day onwards meeting more than once a week at Usha’s house, With enthusiasm and rigorous practice they were able to successfully sing in unison Pancharatna songs of Thyagaraja and few more of Thyagaraja and Purandara Dasa compositions. Thus, Nadatarangini music group was born in Columbus , Ohio ten years ago. While the music classes were going on in full swing, responsibilities were delegated to take care of all other matters such as preparation of food, soliciting sponsorships and advertisements, preparation of the souvenir, pooja arrangements, decorations, audio system etc. Char arranged to have the festival in Wellington School Auditorium and Cafeteria with free admission to all attendees. He cajoled the Cable channel to video tape the function for subsequent telecast. The first Music Festival was held on a grand scale, TV crews, Dispatch articles, with participants coming from all the USA . More than 500 people showed up on the second Saturday of January, when the weather was -16 F! Music lovers had their ears full; also, everyone enjoyed the delicious food items contributed by a number of volunteers. Several Cultural Associations in Central Ohio pitched in too! When the Chars moved to Washington two years later, some thought the annual event was going to fizzle out without the lead person. But the Chars promised to come back at least once a year just for the music festival. And sure enough……they have, actually more than once every year, since then!!! In the first year, Rama Pooja was performed by Sri Manavala Iyengar, a priest from the Pittsburgh Venkateswara Temple . Folks from Cincinnati and Cleveland also have helped us out for the pooja. As a group sharing common interests, we have always been resilient. We have banded together with the same zeal and have done a better job each succeeding year. I am pretty sure VCA will continue to grow and hold this festival for many more years.

Baw Baw NP - Photo: Kelby Douglas. Covering a substantial part of the Baw Baw Plateau and sections of the Thomson and Aberfeldy River valleys, Baw Baw National Park offers colourful wildflowers in early summer and open grassy plains with Snow Gum woodlands. Mount St Gwinear, Mount Erica and the Baw Baw Alpine Village are ideal bases for bushwalking. The Thomson River downstream of the Thomson Dam offers some of the best white water rafting in Victoria. Several tour companies provide rafting tours all year round. In winter, the park is ideal for ski touring and has a variety of marked trails to suit the skills of skiers. Trails can be followed from the St Gwinear car park on to the plateau or further to the Baw Baw Alpine Resort. Parks Victoria acknowledges the Aboriginal Traditional Owners of Victoria - including its parks and reserves. Through their cultural traditions, the Gunaikurnai identify the Baw Baw National Park as their Traditional Country. The park is situated approximately 120 kilometres east of Melbourne and 50 kilometres north of the Latrobe Valley. The main access to the plateau is from the Mount Erica and St Gwinear carparks along signposted roads off the Thomson Valley Road, north of Erica. The Baw Baw Alpine Resort which adjoins the park can be reached from the Princes Highway at Drouin by following the Mount Baw Baw Tourist Road.

Q: Why/how did you get into the animal health industry? DB: For over 20 years I worked in the human drug development and medical communications industries, managing dozens of products and development programs from Phase I though Phase IV. While I enjoyed what I was doing, I wanted to do something that also paired with my love for animals and degree in zoology. I was fortunate to be able to leverage my years of experience in drug development and investor relations to co-found KindredBio, a company dedicated to developing cutting-edge therapeutics for cats, dogs, and horses. As the parent of frogs, hermit crabs, mice, rats, bunnies, hamsters, and a dog as a child (not all at the same time), my mother is not surprised by my success or that of KindredBio! Q: Who has been a career inspiration to you? DB: I met my co-founder and KindredBio CEO, Dr. Richard Chin, when we worked together at Elan Pharmaceuticals. Right away, I felt connected to him and his business philosophies. As a Harvard-trained physician and former Rhodes Scholar, with a track record of almost a dozen drug approvals, I knew I could learn from him and that my clinical operations expertise and management skills would benefit him as well. When we left Elan, we kept in touch and I always knew we would work together again. Then, in 2012, we began to talk about how we could pair our decades of experience and love of animals to start a veterinary biopharmaceutical company. That’s when we started KindredBio and never looked back. I feel very fortunate to be in partnership with Richard because our diverse skill set and management styles that really complement one another. Q: People think of pets as part of their family, how does that fit in with what you do? DB: Our fury companions have truly become members of the family - proven by Americans spending $700 million each year on Valentine’s Day gifts for our beloved pets. The evolution of the pet as a family member has been relatively short. In my lifetime, I have seen dogs move from the yard, to the dog house, to a sequestered room behind a gate, and now, 40% of pets sleep in bed with their pet parents! In 2016, pet owners in the U.S. spent over $66 billion on their pets, and increase of over 10% from the year before. There is a critical need, and willingness to pay, for innovative medicines for our pets. We found that there are few companies dedicated to developing such therapies for companion animals, with a market in dire need, which is why we founded KindredBio. DB: Our mission is to bring our pets the same kinds of innovative, safe, and effective medicines that our human family members enjoy. Our core strategy is to leverage the billions of dollars that have been invested in human drug development by modifying, improving, and repurposing pre-existing drugs and pursuing biological targets that have already proven to be safe and effective in humans. We have developed a team of veterinarians, scientists, and operational experts who love animals and want to develop therapeutics that have been appropriately studied and, eventually, approved by FDA for use in pets. The passion that we have for pet wellness is infectious throughout the organization. Q: Why did you decide to headquarter the company in Silicon Valley? DB: We love the energy that comes with working in an innovative hub of technology like Silicon Valley. The bay area is an epicenter of biotechnology and Richard, who spent years as the head of Clinical Research for biotherapeutics at Genentech, has recruited a world-class team of scientists and protein engineers to develop our cutting-edge biologics for cats, dogs, and horses. Because of the talent in the area, we have put together an incredible team that is innovating in lockstep with human breakthroughs, such as those in immunotherapy. Importantly, the energy of the valley, along with the great weather and access to outdoor pursuits, is what allows us to attract top talent to our organization. Q: What were some of the challenges you faced as a woman raising money on Wall Street? DB: I grew up in biotech and pharma in California, and was fortunate that I did not feel limited by a glass ceiling in my career trajectory. It was quite apparent to me as we began our testing-the-waters meetings and eventual IPO roadshow that there were many fewer female decision-makers on Wall Street. There were entire days on the roadshow when I would not see a single woman at the table. I have always felt that, regardless of gender, it is critical to know your business and industry better than anyone else in the room. Because we had a very strong business plan that I knew inside-and-out, I did not feel a need to alter my pitch because of my gender. The fact that my passion for animals and KindredBio shines through my pitch, perhaps more because of my delivery as a woman, is only an asset. I am happy to say that, in the nearly four years as a publicly-held company, I do meet more and more female investors at the table who are decision-makers. Q: Tell me about the drugs you have in development and how they help animals? DB: We are currently anticipating FDA approval and launch of Zimeta™ (dipyrone injection), a novel, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory for the control of fever in horses, and Mirataz™ (mirtazapine 2% topical ointment) for the management of weight loss in cats. It says so much about our team that we have two drugs under review by FDA in less than 5 years of founding the company. In addition to those products, we have approximately 20 products in development for a variety of diseases for cats, dogs, and horses. In the future, we will be helping animals with autoimmune diseases, cancer, and metabolic disorders, to name a few. Q: What is your advice for companies who are fundraising for their businesses? DB: Tout your brain and your heart. Telling your story and conveying your vision is a huge part of connecting with a potential investor. Your heart will show how much you believe in what you are doing. Investors will see that. It’s equally important to show your knowledge of what you are selling. Investors want to see that you know what you are talking about – from the industry and competitors to the product and the customer. Do your homework. Combine your passion and knowledge with drive and persistence, and you are well on your way. Q: What is the best advice you've ever received? DB: While my Mom didn’t verbalize advice as much as she led by example, she taught me to follow my passion, regardless of where society pushed me (or even where she thought I should be heading). She raised two girls as a single parent and worked two jobs at once, as a special education teacher and a waitress. She also got her Master’s degree before I graduated high school and found time to attend the Academy of Dramatic Arts to fulfill her creative needs. As a child of the 70’s and 80’s, she was a phenomenal role model, who taught me that a woman could be anything she set out to be. She supported my every whim as a child, as long as it was something I was passionate about. I saw the way she loved teaching and nurturing children with learning challenges, and the fulfillment she received in return, which showed me how to have a rewarding career, driven by passion. Q: What hobbies or interests do you enjoy when you aren't working? DB: My husband, Lon, and I enjoy traveling, music, and theater in our spare time. We have had the opportunity to support theatrical productions on and off Broadway. In additional to adventure travel, we find the dozens of concerts we attend each year to be a great way to be in the moment and relax. We have recently become horse enthusiasts and owners of a grand prix show jumper, Wasco, as well as parent to a border collie, Betty, and two cats, Gladys and Glover.

The above is a vegetarian calzone I made a while back that I thought I would share. I got the idea from an episode of “Diners, Drive-Ins, & Dives”. Pictured above is also a batch of freshly made Kabocha chips. I used a pizza dough recipe that I frequently use to make bread. I replaced real meat for Tofurkey versions because my girlfriend is vegetarian. Although I’m sure the calories are about equal.

Stuff someone’s stockings with these small gifts. (SPOT.ph) Stuffing stockings on Christmas Eve is said to have started with Dutch children actually leaving out their shoes for St. Nicholas, hoping that he would leave them candies and toys stashed in their footwear. In 1809, Washington Irving penned a story where children hung stockings instead of shoes, and so a tradition was born. We’ve scoured the stores for some cool pocket-sized finds that are easy on the wallet. Get stuffing! Stuffers for kids, guys, girls and more!

Alyssa is kidnapped and taken into the forest where she embraces her new status as a she-wolf, and finds herself falling in love - and lust - with the impossibly rugged, brooding Sal. Brett Wolfram begins his quest to find Alyssa and return her to his mansion, his senses telling him that she is pregnant - but not if it is he, or his brother who is the father. Meanwhile, close behind him, those plotting his downfall begin their own hunt - their aim is to kill Wolfram and the heir to his empire...Alyssa's werewolf child.

Hitt, Jeff (1996) "Reply," The Prairie Light Review: Vol. 16 : No. 2 , Article 41.

This project has certainly been in the works for a long time (Instagram tells me I started is this past spring). I decided to take my time with it, which I think is the best way to approach needle turn appliqué. A variation on my MarimeFaux wall hanging, this 20" x 51" table runner uses a slightly different template but the same folding, cutting, and appliqué technique. The method is a cross between cutting paper dolls and Hawaiian appliqué, and its one I’d like to continue to explore. Instead of the high contrast black and white solids, in this variation I played with fabrics that blur the boundaries between appliqué and background. It's a trick I used in improv piecing, and I think its so interesting in this application. Once the appliqué was complete, the project stalled for a while as I tried out different quilting patterns. I settled on a free motion figure eights, as you can see. If I had it to do again, I think the modern design and fabric would be better complimented by simple, matchstick quilting. I enjoyed the process of making this quilt, from the template creation, to folding and cutting, and appliqué. The quilting went quickly on the machine, but the facing did take some time. I think it is more tedious than binding, but some quilts really demand one. I think I’ll experiment more with this technique, perhaps on a smaller scale. I recently had the pleasure of taking a class with Kim Eichler-Messmer, author of Modern Color, on indigo shibori fabric dyeing. It was just a delight. Kim, a professor at the Kansas City Art Institute, also teaches private classes at KC Textile Studio. If you have the opportunity to take a class, do it! We learned to make two different types of indigo dye vats, as well as the shirbori technique, including itajime, arashi, and machine sewn. This traditional Japanese dyeing method, which uses uses clamps, string, and stitching to create resist patterns, creates truly endless design possibilities. I tried a bit of everything, which is the fun of this sort of class. Indigo dyeing is certainly simple enough to do at home, albeit a bit messy. I hope an outdoor indigo party with crafty friends is in my future.

Also 206 and 211 have been together for the past few days. Just curious, is it really that easy to get into Mayne and graffiti on stuff? Especially the sidings next to the yard, because they don’t have fencing or anything. Because that paint on 84 is definitely new! Agreed on the 3 car services. There is still one running from Caboolture to Ipswich in peak time which is ridiculous. Seen an NGR and EMU 26 I think both in new graffiti livery today. Yes rather it is quite odd to be retiring sets when I’ve seen a few Cabooltures (and the occasional Redcliffe) only using 3-car sets. Been a while since I’ve seen weird slogans on the train displays. Yesterday most cleveland line pm peak trains were EMU units, which the exception of that one manly train that is always an IMU. Just saw a 3-car Ipswich this morning at like 7:30 and it was jam-packed, people were standing everywhere. There must be 6-7 NGRs on Kippa-Ring runs today, certainly changing the emus onto other services quickly now. Very low on sightings around Milton today. I really don’t like the design of the new NGRs. There’s very low visibility everywhere and I’ve been in at least two occasions where I almost sat on top of another person just because I couldn’t see them there. Maybe a line continuing from Springfield with a Springfield West or south something on the cards? Bit like Mango Hill and Mango Hill East?? who knows. Which line will the Toowoomba - Brisbane trains take?? 103 & 106 at Milton on 4.08pm to Kippa-Ring again!! Got really bad sightings yesterday, only one! 21 3-car with no display at Roma St. Today got some better results, with 85 & 86 pair being broken up, 85 with 40 and I haven’t seen 86 yet. The other Bandicoot pair of 81 & 82 wasn’t seen but 86 was today, see below. With 67? At Bowen Hills depot I’m after the other bandicoot which arrived around the same time which is still parked up close to the Ferny Grove bridge. @Skyblue1 yep I’ve been trying to see that one as well but from the north side the big blocks holding up the Ferny rails block it, and from the south there just isn’t that good of a view. Weird to think that some of the 60s might still be in Mayne just outside of view. Argh the NGRs are actually the worst when it comes to visibility. Couldn’t keep an eye on 84 and 104 but I think 67 got moved into the Servicing Shed (or it was moved behind the S/IMU which was the only one I could see). Will keep an eye out this afternoon. Bit late with yesterday’s list. Morning all! 37 has moved on from being paired with 04, now it’s with 23. I think QR’s up to 740 with the NGR fleet. Saw 734 ‘Test Train’ a couple days ago. Yes NGR 740 been seen a few times on Kippa-Ring runs. Yesterday I noticed 67? Being moved around Bowen Hills with doors open so may have departed with the other half bandicoot (yellow non drivers end and bandicoot drivers end) that was parked near Ferny Grove bridge. Anyway. Yesterday’s low count sightings. Just gone past Bowen Hills depot and seen what looks like either an EMU/IMU/SMU with 1 piece windows instead of split windows down the whole of one side. New upgrade ?? Didn’t see it this morning, was busy on my laptop, will check this arvo. Is it really far in the Yard (considering you couldn’t even tell what type it was)? Only got 42 & 83 and 82 & 43 (is it a coincidence?) on the Roma and a northbohnd run respectively. Very low day on Emu counts again today. EMUs seem to be thin on the ground over the last 2 days, very bizarre. Maybe some more gone into storage we don’t know about?? 14 & 79 in Mayne Yard, 84 & 104 now gone. Yep 14 and 79 have taken their place, yesterday afternoon neither were in the Yards so I assume they were moved in last night? I agree there have been less EMUs to sight, but for some reason I managed to catch 3 out of 4 EMUs on my daily trip yesterday. I think I got a brief glimpse of the train without the stem in between the windows, it was moving though so I couldn’t classify it. The 80s series has been working rather hard these past few days though, I’ve seen them on multiple occasions basically every day this past week. Yesterday was a bit more rewarding with sightings.

Welcome to Thanjavur.net, the website for the Chola Capital city and the Granary of South India. Thanjavur was the royal city of the Cholas, Nayaks and the Mahrattas. Thanjavur derives its name from Tanjan-an asura (giant), who according to local legend devastated the neighborhood and was killed by Sri Anandavalli Amman and Vishnu, Sri Neelamegapperumal. Tanjan's last request that the city might be named after him was granted. Thanjavur was at height of its glory during Rajaraja cholan. Let us take Thanjavur back to its past glory in the information age. Thanjavur is still the center of all the classical arts and music. It has produced many classical musicians and bharathanatyam dancers and is also well known for its unique painting style called Tanjore Painting and Thavil, a percussion instrument. Here we have the ultimate site for all the information about Thanjavur and its neighborhood. It is the capital of the Thanjavur district and its been the center for learning Tamil during Chola and now with the establishment of Tamil University by our late Chief Minister Dr. M.G. Ramachandran. There are a lot of beautiful temples in Thanjavur region. Big Temple stands tall with its beaming tower. It's one of the architectural wonders of the world.

Toronto based artist and curator Mitch Robertson exhibited at The Physics Room in early 2000, and building on this contact, Robertson has now curated for the gallery Beautiful Stranger, a group exhibition of Canadian artists. In the words of the curator, "a portrait show with hardly any portraits in it", the artists in this show present works which focus on people often in obsessive, detailed close-ups. Kelly Mark’s work, seen in Australasia at the Sydney Biennale of 1998, explores the role of surveillance in our everyday lives, often taking on the assumed role of a stalker or fan to unknown members of the public. Painter Janet Werner paints portraits of people whom she has created or imagined, who take, or ape the role of family portraiture, simulating the familiar appearance of studio portraits. Established artist Micah Lexier’s conceptual works encompass every non-traditional art material, exploring issues of time and age in his own life and experiences. Repositioning himself as the object of the artist’s spectacle, he reworks the traditional situation of the artist as own model, presenting his own life through a variety of self-mythologised realms. For Beautiful Stranger Lexier has created a model of time called Gallery Hours in which visitors to the gallery at set times of the day receive an artists token in return for their participation in the work. The Physics Room receives major funding from Creative New Zealand/Toi Aotearoa. Beautiful Stranger: an exhibition by three Canadian artists.

THE TIPTON COUNTY HERITAGE CENTER & MUSEUM is sponsored by the Tipton County Historical Society. It is situated on the route of the old Muncietown-to-Lafayette State Road that was established long before Tipton County was founded in 1844. The center contains more than 4,000 square feet of floor space for museum displays and storage. It is a historical center for the citizens of Tipton County. It offers services that are not available from other public facilities. It serves as a Tipton County museum of history by displaying local artifacts that portray the history and the development of the county. It has a history library that gives the public access to information about the founding and the history of Tipton County. The Heritage Center is a final resting place for valuable old books, county histories, old records and documents, and a storage place for out-dated public records from the courthouse, the city of Tipton and the small towns. It will house a very large number of school records from all of the townships. The history library also functions as a center for the family records of the local citizens, as well as a genealogical resource center for family biographies, and books and materials for researching family histories. The Tipton County Heritage Center is a facility where important artifacts, old documents and historic papers can be safely stored for long periods of time under archival conditions. The heat, humidity and light are carefully controlled for optimum conditions for long-time storage. It does not duplicate the services of the schools, the public libraries or other organizations of Tipton County. The Center houses valuable collections belonging to the people of Tipton County. The collections include artifacts for public displays, such as room furnishings, clothes, household equipment, and many other items that have been important for raising families. Many antiques that were used in businesses and in early industries that portray the history of the county will be displayed there. The center also is a storage site for old books, pictures, letters, video, oral histories and other records of the people of Tipton County. One of the Tipton County Heritage Center’s primary functions is to serve children, adults and members of service organizations as an education center. Hands-on demonstrations are given to portray the history and the place of the county communities in the past and present. The facility is a resource center, where the history and the importance of Tipton County agriculture, businesses and industries can be researched, while it preserves the significance of the excellent Tipton County soils that are the county’s primary natural resource. The Phase I portion of the of the Tipton County Heritage Center was completed in 2000. The Phase II addition on the south end of the building was completed in 2008 and is used for the consolidation of the artifact collections from around the County. Phase II was financed by grants and donations from the people who value their heritage and the history and welfare of Tipton County. Individuals, organizations, businesses, or corporations may contribute.

Tobacco is a bad habit no matter how you look at it. It gives no health benefits and can deteriorate the health of those around you. Second-hand smoke is almost as bad as smoking the cigarette itself, so it’s a good idea to quit whenever you can. It can be difficult, though, considering the smell of tobacco smoke is enough to trigger a craving. Suppressing these cravings is one of the primary keys of weaning yourself off cigarettes, so you should always try to keep yourself away from the scent. One of those ways is to get an ozone generator and clean all your clothes, furniture, and home of the smells. Tobacco smoke stains things, even if you don’t smoke inside your home. The chemicals from the smoke cause discoloration and a near-permanent smell of tobacco. This won’t help you quit at all, so getting an ozone generator to pump ozone through the home is a great way to get rid of it. While it won’t remove the discolorations that might affect everything, it will remove the smell of the chemicals in your possessions. The ozone binds to these odor particles and destroys them, eventually eliminating the smell completely. However, keep in mind that ozone is quite dangerous to people and animals, so you should only run it whenever you aren’t in the room and the room is sealed up. Our teeth is one of the best thing that we could ask for if there are things that we wish to have. It may have different ideas to consider those thought, but we may have several ideas that we could work on with it. For sure, that would be okay. As we go through the concept, we may need to explain what are the common thought to see what is there to ponder about. Dentures in Howell are somewhat a good place to work into and hope that you are changing the notion before we see what is coming. The great concept to settle for is to explain what kind of situation we seem making some points about. Knowing more about the situation is a good situation to help you into the parts. It may need to hold through it before we get to the right situation in one part or the other. As the ideas are holding into that part, the better we seem in making some few senses to somehow help us into that part before we get to that concept in every way. The situation you are working on about will surely help us into the notion and give us a way to hold through them without making a part to know what is there to manage about them. If there are some few issues you are not that certain about, we need to go over with the fact that some situations are making new cases in every way. The ideas we seem creating about will help us with the position to assist you with the whole thing. We are not only relevant to the situation and give us a sign that something is up and how you could settle for that in every way. We all have some positive implication though, but it will assist us with the position before we can realize that out. These are thoughts that we can manage about. We are holding into that concept before we see what is there to hold through. We are putting enough pressure into that situation that when we seem grabbing to that notion, we can hopefully consider the part when the ideas are putting into the pressure. If that is something to hold through, the better. You should also check what are those things that are critical and hope that you explain what you could do with it in every way. We have to explore the possible ideas and be certain with the position when there are so many concept that we have to carry on about. The whole thing that we wanted to ensure is to know what is going to happen next. Getting into the right process and ensuring that you know what you are doing is something we can explain to ourselves later on. All of us are good on what we seem doing, but that does not mean that it will help us with the issues too. We are here for a reason. However, we seem not that certain into the situation before we guide ourselves into the thought in every way.

I am traveling this weekend and regrettably will not be in my kitchen, but I want to share with you the wonderful dishes from my guest blogger, New York Times Bestseller cookbook author Danielle Walker, who overcame debilitating disease through healthful eating. I found her story and her cookbooks inspirational and hope that you will enjoy these recipes. Hello Hungry Empress readers! I hope you enjoy my new recipe collection. Each recipe is gluten-free, dairy-free and Paleo-friendly. Eating a nutritious diet focused on meals and snacks prepared at home doesn’t have to be intimidating. While it does take a little extra work to prepare things from scratch, I think you’ll find that you’ll not only enjoy the food, but also the process. I’ve included a few of my favorite tips for easing nutritious eating and cooking into your regimen—if you haven’t already! Feel free to stop by my blog Against All Grain for more tips, recipes and information about my cookbooks. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk together 1/2 cup hot water and ground chia seeds and let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes to thicken. Meanwhile, in the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the almond butter, flaxseed, arrowroot, applesauce, maple syrup, cinnamon, lemon juice, nutmeg, ginger and sea salt. Mix on medium speed to combine fully. Add the thickened chia mixture to the bowl with the baking soda and beat again until fully combined. Stir in the cherries and chocolate pieces. Using a cookie scoop or a large spoon, drop dough onto the lined baking sheets. Wet fingers slightly with warm water and gently press the mounds down to flatten slightly. Sprinkle the tops of the cookies with sliced almonds. Bake for 15 minutes, until golden brown around the edges and the almonds are lightly toasted. Cool on a wire rack completely before serving. Combine all of the ingredients in a blender. Blend on high until smooth. Serve immediately. To make the spicy almonds: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Toss all of the ingredients together in a bowl, then spread the almonds in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and drizzle with any remaining sauce. Bake for 10 minutes, turning once halfway through. Cool completely, then roughly chop. Meanwhile, make the dressing: Place all of the ingredients in a blender except for the olive oil. Blend until smooth. With the blender running, slowly drizzle the olive oil into the blender in a steady stream. Add one tablespoon of water, to help keep the dressing liquid when refrigerated. To assemble the salads: Toss the shrimp in the olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Heat a grill pan or skillet to medium-high heat and cook the shrimp for two minutes on each side, until pink throughout. Set aside to cool. Divide the dressing between six 24-ounce Mason jars or bowls. Divide and layer the remaining salad ingredients in the four jars or bowls in the order they are listed, with the lettuce and shrimp at the top. Leave 1 inch of space at the top of the jar. Garnish each with about 1 tablespoon chopped spicy almonds, cover and refrigerate until ready to enjoy. When ready to enjoy, shake the jar vigorously to mix the ingredients and dressing. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper then add half of the chicken to the pot. Cook for 5 minutes, browning on all sides. Transfer the chicken to a slow cooker and repeat with remaining chicken. Return the pot to the stove and add onion and garlic and sauté for three minutes or until tender. Add the ginger, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, cayenne, salt and pepper and sauté for 30 seconds or until fragrant. Stir in chicken stock and almond butter, scraping pot to loosen any browned bits. Pour contents of pot over chicken into the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for five hours. Meanwhile, prepare the cauliflower couscous. Rice cauliflower by running the florets through a food processor with a grating attachment or use a box grater to create rice-like pieces. Pick out any large fragments that didn’t get shredded and save for another use. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onions and garlic for 2 minutes, then add the cauliflower, salt and pepper. Sauté for 8 to 10 minutes, until the cauliflower is tender. Stir in the cherries, basil, cilantro and lemon zest. Garnish the chicken with toasted, sliced almonds and fresh cilantro. Serve over cauliflower couscous. Pour 3/4 cup water into a saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin over top. Turn the burner to med-high heat and whisk until the gelatin is fully dissolved. Set aside. Combine almond milk, dates, cacao powder, chia seeds, vanilla, cinnamon and sea salt in a blender. Blend until very smooth, about two minutes. With the blender running, slowly pour in the gelatin liquid. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, cover and refrigerate overnight. To assemble the parfaits: Divide the banana slices between six 8-ounce Mason jars or bowls. Spoon equal amounts of almond butter into the jars, then top with equal amounts of the chilled pudding. Top with berries and almonds and serve immediately or refrigerate covered for up to three days. When Audrey visited me on the set of Marco Polo in Malaysia last year, she often rehearsed dialogue with Benny, the actor who played Kublai Khan. Audrey would read all the other characters to help Benny memorize his lines. Did the acting bug bite her then? I was surprised when Audrey expressed her interest in acting this week and sent in an audition tape to a young director who is shooting a short film in April. I told her that she can do it if the shooting happens during spring break. I have never wanted to involve my children in acting. The profession can be a treacherous one because hard work doesn’t correlates with success. There is too much uncertainty and not enough security in this business. But I guess it’s no use telling her how acting is a bad profession when I do it myself. I have long learned that you can’t teach your children by telling them things. What you teach is what you are. We will find out in a few days if Audrey will do her debut role in Las Vegas during spring break. Should I keep my fingers crossed for her? If there is “beauty sleep,” is there beauty food? I think the salad I made for dinner comes close to “beauty food” if there ever is one. This simple salad is it’s own dressing. With the oil in the avocado and the citrusy juice from the grapefruit, all you need is a little salt and pepper if anything. I used organic cooked beets from Love Beets. It took me less than 10 minutes to make this delicious and satisfying salad. Give it a vigorous toss before serving to mix the flavors of the three ingredients. Whenever I am pressed for time, I turn to stir fry. Not only is it something that I have been doing since childhood and therefore second nature, but also it is a way of cooking that is, in my opinion, good for almost any food. A quick stir fry enhances the flavor without compromising the nutritional value of the vegetables, and it never over cooks the meats. A friend who seldom cooks texted me today to let me know that she was making the Chinese shredded pork that I posted yesterday. It brought a smile to my face to know that the blog inspired a friend to try cooking. All the fancy culinary performance shows can sometimes be intimidating and make cooking a spectators’ game. In reality it is just an activity that human kind has been doing since the use of controlled fire over a million years ago. You don’t need to be a professional to cook. Combine soy sauce, lime juice, water and cornstarch in a small bowl, mix together and set aside. Marinate the chicken for 30 minutes to an hour. Drain the chicken and discard the marinade. Add 1/2 tsp corn starch and mix. Marinating meat in wine enhances the flavor, if you don’t have the time, you can skip the step. Just salt the chicken and add 1/2 teaspoon corn starch. Heat a large wok over high heat. When the wok is very hot, add half of the oil, then add the chicken. Stir fry, stirring occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and browned, about 3 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the chicken and set aside. Reduce heat to medium. Add the remaining oil to the wok; add the garlic and ginger, stir for 20 seconds. Add the sugar snap peas and bell pepper, stirring over medium high heat until tender crisp, about 3 minutes. Return the chicken to the wok, add the soy sauce-lime mixture, mix well and cook another 30 seconds to one minute. Serve immediately and top with fresh scallions. Mondays are usually busy with all kinds of errands, but I managed to read a few more chapters of The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying up. I learned today that I’m never supposed to ball up my socks. It cracked me up when the author asked “This should be a time for them to rest. Do you really think they can get any rest like that?” My socks are supposed to be on holiday in my drawer. Being balled up means that they are in a state of tension. I wondered where she was gong with this until she showed me how to fold it and store it “the right way.” It actually made sense. I can’t wait to un-ball all my socks tomorrow and create a sock resort for them. I will show you a photo of my relaxed socks if it all goes well. I’ve never been good at the lotus position meditation, but I can imagine the methodical smoothing out and folding of the socks to be a meditative process as cooking oftentimes is for me. Combine the hoisin, orange juice soy sauce and wine with a whisk and reserve. Add pork chops to marinade and refrigerate for 2 hours. While chops are marinating, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Place the broccoli in a wire basket and cook for about 3 minutes at a slow boil to blanch. Remove from pot and place in ice water to stop the cooking process. Let sit in ice bath for a couple minutes until chilled. Remove chops from refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature for about 5 minutes before cooking. Remove from marinade, reserving the marinade for later. Heat a medium nonstick sauté pan on high heat, spray with oil when hot then place the steaks and cook 3 minutes on each side. Lower the stove to medium and cook another 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until the thermometer inserted to the center reads 140. Transfer to a cutting board and let it sit for 5 minutes. Add the reserved marinade to the skillet, reduce heat to medium-low, bring to a boil and simmer 2 to 3 minutes. Place the sesame oil in a large nonstick skillet, add the onions, garlic and ginger and cook on high 1 to 2 minutes. Add the broccoli and carrot noodles, season with salt and cook 3 minutes. Add the blanched broccoli and cook until hot. Divide the vegetables unto 2 separate plates. Place the chops on a cutting board and cut into thin strips. Lay chops on top of the vegetables, top with sauce and serve. There is something wonderful and exciting about receiving and opening packages in the mail, especially when you are not sure what exactly the boxes contain. I was away on film locations in remote regions of China when I was only fourteen. My mother used to send me bi-weekly care packages from Shanghai — often times my favorite snacks such as dried plums or a can of spam, which was a luxury item back then. I can still recall those moments of excitement and anticipation when I opened up the care packages. On Christmas Eve, we received in the mail a beautiful set of artisanal silverware from For Such a Time Designs! We first saw Aly Nickerson’s lovely hand-stamped spoons on SkinnyTaste.com and coveted them for months before they finally arrived, a generous gift from Aly. Each piece of the silver plated flatware is vintage and stamped with antique metal stamps. It is absolutely gorgeous and makes eating even more fun than it already is. “Serve With Love,” “Eat Clean,” my thoughts exactly! Heat a flat non-stick pan on medium, add oil, then add most of the chopped scallion. After the scallion softens, about 40 seconds, pour in the beaten eggs. Add salmon, the rest of the scallion and the cheese. Sprinkle the Dill Weed. Roll the Omelet. Sprinkle with fresh pepper. Everyone in the house loved Yam Casserole so much that I made it for the second time this week. It is a delicious and healthy dish that is relatively easy to make. When I picked Audrey up from school today, she looked sad and tired. What a horrible day, she said. I asked her what happened and she told me that they had a really difficult math test. Half the class didn’t finish and many of them cried during and after the test. I asked if she cried too and she said that she did only because her friends cried. So, it was time to churn some ice cream. Audrey has a sweet tooth. And the ice cream (and perhaps Mommy’s hugs, too) brightened her right away. With our healthy ice cream recipes, we can eat it everyday and not worry about weight gain or tooth decay. As a matter of fact, xylitol is even good for your teeth. We had Chinese food for dinner. I only have enough daylight to take the pictures of one of our dishes. Slice all vegetables into desired similar sized pieces. Mix chicken meat, corn starch, wine, oyster sauce and Sha Cha in a small bowl. Marinate for 1 hour. Heat the wok on high heat, drop in the ginger, when ginger is dry pour in the oil. When the ginger is sizzling in the oil, put in the vegetables and stir for about 3 minutes or to desired tenderness. Set aside. Repeat the same process to stir fry the chicken, but save the marinate. Set aside. Cook the marinate until it thickens. Mix in everything. Mix in the nuts. Dessert is all American apple crisp, but a much healthier one than the traditional recipe. The girls were excited about going to see The Last Emperor tomorrow and asked me how I got to play the part of the empress. And I told them well, that’s a long story. In a large bowl, mix together apples, coconut water, 1 tbs. xylitol, maple syrup, cinnamon and nutmeg. Pour into a pie dish and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Remove from the oven to sprinkle crumble on top. Mix together almond flour, pecans, honey and coconut oil in a small bowl until well combined. Take small portions of it into your hands and sprinkle chunks of it onto the apples. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. I have never been good at auditions. When I was growing up, modesty and humility were the two qualities that were hammered into me ever since I could remember. And expressing personal desires was frowned up. Basically the only thing we were encouraged to express was our desire to serve the people and to devote our lives to the realization of Communism. This kind of mentality was so ingrained in me that it was difficult for me to “sell” myself at auditions. Growing up I was supposed to negate every compliment or praise given to me. If someone said that I was pretty, I would immediately say no, no, I am ugly; if someone said that I was smart, I would say no, no, that’s not true. It took me at least one year to get used to saying thank you after people complimented me, and another year to honestly express my feelings and desires. The first time I truly fought for what I wanted was when I auditioned for Michael Cimino’s Year of the Dragon. It was a lengthy process which lasted several months and involved dozens of call backs and a final screen test with Mickey Rourke. The part was a sophisticated TV newscaster and I still looked and talked like a FOB from China. In retrospect, I could see that I was completely wrong for the part but at the time I gave it everything to get the part. I hired the the most expensive dialogue coach in Hollywood to teach me speak newscaster English. Every session was $200 for 2 hours while I was working as a receptionist in a Chinese restaurant earning about $5 an hour. I went for broke but I did not get the part. Both the director and the casting director were very impressed by my progress not only in my dialogue but also in my acting ability, but in the end I was wrong for the part. This was the only time that I ever received a huge bouquet of flowers from any director who rejected me. I felt very dejected, believing all my effort had been a complete waste and hard work meant nothing in this business. Then about a year later, I got a call from Joanna Merlin, the casting director who worked on the Year of the Dragon, and she said, Joan, there is a part that is perfect for you and I want you to meet with the director who is in LA for only a short time. Can you come? I said yes, anytime, I will be there. Joanna said it is still preliminary. We haven’t started casting, but I have told the director to look no further because I have exactly the person he’s looking for. That’s how I met Bernardo for the first time, with the highest recommendation from a very reputable casting director who just a year before had combed through all the Asian actresses around the world. The months of work I thought was wasted paid off in a much grander film. It would take the producer Jeremy Thomas another year to complete the financing , and they did go around the world to cast the film, but Bernardo would always call me whenever he came to LA and we would meet for coffee and chat. The role was mine the first time Joanna brought me to meet Bernardo. With Bernardo in Jack Nicholson’s house. Jack told me that speaking perfect English has nothing to do with my acting career. I didn’t quite understand what he meant at the time, but I think I do now. Imitating an American accent, however perfect, is not going to change the life experience that makes me who I am; and that entire being is my asset in acting as well as in life. So I told my girls that hard work always pays off. And that’s when they told me I was boring and left the table. Twin Peaks is back after 25 years, but I highly doubt that I will be back as Josie. I was the exotic beauty in an incestuous town, a poisonous fish out of water. And we all know I that haven’t been these things for quite a while now. However, a glimmer of hope still exists, for Josie was last seen trapped in a wooden doorknob. Perhaps I can come back in one of the episodes as a doorknob witch? I have made countless stupid mistakes in life and wanting to be written out of Twin Peaks was among the stupidest. With the ignorance of my youth, and the influence of the PC factions in the Asian community, I naively rebelled against being an exotic flower. I believed that I should want to be something more meaningful. When I asked to be written out of Twin Peaks, I didn’t realize how impossibly precious the opportunity of being a beautiful Ming vase was. Unlike a real Ming vase, the value of which increases by the day, the human version, like a blossoming cereus, is only valuable for a few short hours. Couldn’t I have searched for meaning after my once in a lifetime bloom? The project for which I quit Twin Peaks was called Turtle Beach, a disaster of a film that no one ever saw. The only good thing was that it was filmed in Thailand, where the world’s best coconuts were grown. I came to LOVE coconut during the 10 weeks of filming Turtle Beach on the balmy beach of Phuket. People still walk up to me to tell me they loved me in Twin Peaks. I would be walking on the street or shopping for groceries with a dirty face, and a stranger would begin to gush about Twin Peaks with me. I have always been quite shocked and totally embarrassed at how people could make the connection between this slob and Josie Packard. For desert tonight I served my family almond flour coconut chocolate cookies and coconut mango raspberry ice cream as I told them the story of how I ended up in a wooden doorknob so many years ago. And how I came to love coconut. This recipe was improvised based on a few online references.

The northern triangle formed by these three tropical towns creates, for many backpackers and tourists, the ultimate Australian getaway. Broome, Darwin and Cairns represent much of the iconic Australian image. Laid back lifestyles punctuated by holiday adventure themes. Hiking through rainforest and snorkelling on the Barrier Reef or camel rides along long white beaches fronted by crystal tropical waters. Perhaps crocodile spotting from a tiny dinghy, hauling in a massive Barramundi or a venture into timeless Arnhem land. Broome, Darwin and Cairns are the largest municipalities of the upper northern region of Australia and their tropical climate and easygoing remoteness have eared them reputations as 'must-see' destinations for travellers of all persuasions. Throngs of heat-seeking backpackers converge on all three towns (Darwin and Cairns are actually classed as small cities) and each destination is able to combine a healthy mix of pub and party lifestyle with cultural and adventure style activities. All three centres host an international airport with Broome and Cairns catering specifically to the Japanese tourist. For many Japanese visitors Broome or Cairns are the only points on the Australian map to be visited - the oceanside culture of Cable Beach or exotic tropical Cairns are enough for one holiday. Daily flights direct from Tokyo or Osaka ensure the Yen keeps on arriving. Cruise ships regularly visit the deepwater ports of Darwin Harbour and Broome while Cairns remains the busiest cruise port in Australia with over 200 ships visiting every year. The 'grey nomads' (retirees towing caravans) flock to all three towns with most deserting at the onset of the 'wet season' and returning to the cooler southern climes. Adventurers towing off-road camper trailers enjoy a stop-off before venturing on to more remote hideaways and many Australians choose Broome, Cairns or Darwin for their annual holidays. It is the backpackers who really thrive in this tropical triangle. Backpacker Hostels gear up to host the hordes of Swiss, French, Korean, German, English, Japanese, Irish, Scottish, Chinese and any other nationality you can name. Apart from the usual budget dorm-style accommodation, extra services can include swimming pools, spas, sun decks and bars. Shuttle Bus services often run from the front door with bookings for external activities being taken on site. Nightly entertainment can be a drawcard but it is the chance to meet and socialise with so many other likeminded souls that really draws the backpacker crowd. Broome, Cairns and Darwin all offer casual laid-back attitudes and atmospheres. Bather's and beach footwear are generally welcome in the pubs and eateries and days filled with fun tourist opportunities are offset by long nights of partying. The tourist onslaught ensures casual job opportunities are plentiful (especially in hospitality) and it's possible for those with work visa's to enjoy a working holiday in a sublime environment. Northern Australia was under constant threat from Japanese air raids during WW2 and these three outposts became crucial strategic bases for the defence of Australia. The three towns set up anti-aircraft posts and watches and Darwin and Cairns became pivotal bases for American troops. Broome suffered three air raids but it was Darwin which bore the brunt of Japanese aggression with more ordinance being dropped on Darwin than at Pearl Harbour. Local museums all pay tribute to the service people who defended northern Australia with Darwin doing the most to document it's war time involvement. Bunkers, shipwrecks, gun emplacements and fallen aircraft litter the coast and are testament to a very real threat at the time. This part of the world is a multicultural melting pot. Early settlers included large numbers of Chinese while Darwin enjoys the influence of early Italian and Greek migrants. Broome was originally a prime pearling ground and Japanese pearl divers were part of Broome society as early as the late 1800's. Their influence is still keenly felt today, both in the faces of the townsfolk and the cultural identity of Broome. Northern Australia's close proximity to Asia means large numbers of Asian migrants have emigrated here. The weather, relaxed lifestyle and work opportunities ensure that the north enjoys a culturally diverse population. These regions are also attractive to those with an artistic flair and many artists, photographers and musicians make Broome, Darwin or Cairns home. Local arts and crafts are easily sourced at local markets (Darwin excels at markets) while those seeking an alternative lifestyle are easily accommodated. Tie-dyed singlets, braided hair and hand made bracelets are all the go and a lost flower child from the sixties is not an uncommon sight. Aborigines lived here long before Captain Cook sailed into Cairns or Charles Darwin visited on the Beagle and local aboriginal art is on display and on sale. Local tours feature Aboriginal culture and if you're seeking to get back to earth with an indigenous experience - these may be the towns to find it. All three destinations are great launching pads for a variety of experiences on offer. Broome lends itself to a 'natural' experience. It's the gateway to the stunning and remote Kimberley region of Western Australia and there are plenty of stunning sights a short drive or tour away. White or red ochre beaches, hidden bays and turquoise waters create a postcard picture perfect scene and if you want a relaxed beachside experience with a chance to explore some remote outback scenery then Broome is ideal. Darwin offers a more culturally diverse experience with more on offer within the town itself. The town's history is well represented and museums and galleries are plentiful. A growing cafe culture combines with a diverse population to bring a casual dining experience. Darwin rests on a large point in the Timor Sea and you have to venture 300km south to find the magnificent natural regions like Nitmulak, Kakadu and Arnhem land. Cairns is the adventure playground of the three. At it's front door lies the Great Barrier Reef, dotted with reef, islands and marine activities. Behind Cairns, tropical rainforest spills down into the ocean and hides a myriad of things to do and see. A mountain train journey, white water rafting and cable cars above the rainforest are just a few of the activities on offer. Cafes and restaurants are plentiful and relaxed and a vibrant nightlife and pub scene keeps things humming along after the sun goes down. Broome, Darwin and Cairns can all serve up an varied and interesting experience at any time of the year. However, the wet or monsoonal season (also know as 'troppo' and 'mango' season) sees the tourists leaving in droves. Hot maximum temperatures combined with extreme humidity create an uncomfortable living environment. Tropical ailments can effect an unaccustomed metabolism. Suffering constant sauna-like conditions coupled with an influx of insects and flooded roads is enough to drive even the hardiest tourist away. The 'Wet' really begins building up in November and carries through to around the end of March. Torrential rain can bring about road closures and many tour operators take a break and close for part of the wet season. The locals and those that choose stay on are treated to amazing wildlife, a blindingly green landscape, stunning lightning shows and thunderstorms (particularly in Darwin) and quiet, unpopulated facilities. The end of the wet season around April is, perhaps, one of the best times to visit. The environment remains vividly green, wildlife is abundant, the parks and gorges become accessible again and the rivers and waterfalls are still flowing hard. At this time the 'runout' around Darwin is the signal for the Barramundi to leave the inland areas and move closer to the ocean and the fishing can be sensational. So Is It All Beer and Skittles? Well, frankly no it's not. This is northern Australia. Crocodiles and Irukandji and Box jellyfish are all present in these tropical waters. Big saltwater crocs are a real and present danger the further north you venture and occasionally they drag a dog or unsuspecting sightseer off a beach. Thankfully, signs will usually make you aware of when and where you shouldn't swim. These are not towns where you can just slap your beach towel onto the sand and take a dip anywhere you want. The beaches further south are the real postcard image of sun drenched Australia. You can also be bitten in the tourist shops of these three travel icons. Inflated prices for tourist junk - Koala 'Teddy' bears made in China or Boomerangs made in Taiwan can leave a slightly unpleasant taste in the mouth of the tourist dollar. You can get a handle on local indigenous culture in these towns. There are plenty of tours and artistic opportunities organised by self-reliant local aborigines. The intrusion of white colonial Australia has had less of an impact up here than in the major cities down south. Or rather, the impact down south is less obvious. You will probably see indigenous Australia at it's worst up here. These towns lend themselves to outdoor living and many indigenous locals (and plenty of white Australians) choose to reside on the beaches or under the trees. Alcohol and welfare reliance are serious social issues and groups of traditional owners can be seen emerging from metropolitan bush hideouts to spend the days hanging about the town centre. It's nothing particularly bothersome it's just a fact not portrayed in the holiday brochures. Apart from these minor issues these towns really have a unique offering. So Which Town Is The Best To Visit? Tough question. We must admit to having an attachment to the area around Broome. Broome sits at the top of the Pilbara and the bottom of the Kimberley regions which both offer some of the most stunning landscapes and touring icons in the country. It is a small, isolated country town of only 15,000 residents which swell to 45,000 when the tourist season kicks in. The beach at Broome offers a postcard image of white sand and turquoise water and is probably the most idyllic swimming opportunity of these three towns. If you want to see remote 'outback' Australia then you have to travel a fair distance from the CBD but some of the sights are spectacular. Darwin has a unique feel and attitude. Friendly, relaxed folk make it easy to forget Darwin is actually the capital city of the Northern Territory. The place feels more like a big country town which it really is. There's plenty to see and do around the CBD and you will always find some activity around the centre of town - day or night. With tours aplenty and Nitmulik(Katherine Gorge) Kakadu and Arnhem Land just south of the town there is loads on offer. Cairns is a bit more more hustle and bustle than Broome or Darwin. And so it should be. It's the largest of this trio and as such has the most comprehensive services and facilities. Cairns caters to the tourist dollar and sometimes it can feel a little impersonal. This may be the price for having the Barrier Reef at your front door and a tropical rainforest at your back. The climate is great, the scenery spectacular and the activities endless. If we had to rate them we would choose 1.Darwin, 2.Broome and 3.Cairns in that order. But hey, our opinion is relative to our experience. The best way to visit is by car. Your own. A drive around the top end using these three points as stopovers is a great way to see some of the best Australia has to offer. For us the coastal strip at Coral Bay and Ningaloo offer some of the best beaches on offer in Australia.

Barbara and the Another View crew will be enjoying a day off on July the 4th this Friday, but never fear...The Capitol Steps are here! Matt "The Cat" and Juke in the Back kick off some summertime R&B! Each Sunday at noon, WHRO-FM offers a program exploring the extensive literature of music for the organ and the human voice. Veterans and active duty service members touch our lives every day, and in many ways. I'm sure some of you remember the days when we would buy an album and couldn't wait to hear the songs you didn't hear on the radio. Provocative, up-to-the-minute, alive and witty, Left, Right & Center's weekly confrontation over politics, policy and popular culture proves those with impeccable credentials needn't lack personality. This weekly "love-hate relationship of the air" features three of the most insightful news analysts anywhere. Brahms considered Tchaikovsky’s music shallow and self-indulgent. Tchaikovsky wrote in his diary “I have played over the music of that scoundrel Brahms. You hear their voices, learn to recognize their tastes, and come to identify with them over time.

The cryptographic protocols used to secure data moving across the web are putting users at risk due to design flaws that date back many years. Given the current push to encrypt everything in response to revelations of government surveillance, it's important that the protocols being used to do the job are actually secure. The problem is that these protocols often aren't up to the task, a problem that researchers at the European Union Agency for Network and Information Security (ENISA) are aiming to remedy.

Regina, Sept. 10, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Petroleum Technology Research Centre, the province of Saskatchewan’s premiere research organization for the funding and support of innovative technologies for the oil and gas industry, is celebrating its 20th Anniversary with a reception and dinner on the night of September 12th, and a full day conference on September 13th. Both events are occurring at Government House in Regina. PTRC has been responsible for managing research programs that have, literally, changed the face of oil and gas worldwide. The Weyburn-Midale CO2 Monitoring and Storage Project – a 15-year 80-million dollar research program that ran from 2000 to 2015 – helped establish standards worldwide for the deep geological storage of carbon dioxide. Additional research programs in enhanced oil recovery helped Saskatchewan and Canada realize the twin goals of increased oil recovery alongside mitigating environmental impacts from production. Currently, the PTRC’s Aquistore project is managing the measurement, monitoring and verification of the CO2 being injected and stored from SaskPower’s Boundary Dam CO2 Capture Plant. Information on the 20th Anniversary may be attained by contacting PTRC at the address below. Interviews with the PTRC’s CEO and select guests attending the conference may also be arranged ahead of the conference, or on the day of the event (September 13th). The Petroleum Technology Research Centre (PTRC) is a not-for-profit corporation founded in 1998 to facilitate research and development and field demonstration projects into enhanced oil recovery and carbon storage, with the goals of improving recovery rates while reducing the environmental footprint of the oil and gas industry. It is the PTRC's mission to realize 5 billion additional barrels of oil reserves from Saskatchewan's existing oil-in-place over five years of R&D and field trials of new technologies.

It's easy with EZset tool presetters: instead of measuring your cutting tools in the machine tool you should let an EZset tool presetter do the job next to the machine. Meanwhile your CNC machine is producing without interruption. X axis (diameter): 400 mm / 15.75" Z axis (length): 400 mm /15.75" X axis (diameter): 400 mm /15.75" Z axis (length): 600 mm / 23.62"

When YOU put out 20 biz cards per day X 5 days = 100 cards per WEEK, 400 cards per MONTH! When you have just 10 people on your team, that READ THIS REPORT, and DO THE SAME THING WITHOUT YOU SAYING A WORD, that equals 4000 cards per MONTH! What would that do for your first month's check, and YOUR 30-Day Success Story?! That is the "Secret Formula" for success in your business… EXPOSURES, EXPOSURES, EXPOSURES!!!

MORE LOCAL ADVERTISING: "Post-It Notes & Postcards" I have put together some really short training pages for these advertising methods to get you going. The next one is Post-It Note Advertising. This is a local advertising strategy you can use to generate leads right in your own city or town. This is very easy to do once you get the supplies needed.

Born in Chicago, Pat Moran attended West Point, graduating with a degree in Economics. Pat then served almost 5 years as an officer in the Army before pursuing his MBA at Stanford. Pat graduated in 1992, having gained in Palo Alto a valuable network of friends and contacts, as well as a spirit for innovation that he carries with him to this day. After graduation, Pat worked for an airline reservation company called Galileo International (now called Travelport) in Chicago. He spent 6 years in business development, financial management, and pricing, before being recruited to work for Visa. There, Pat spent 5 years on the frontline of electronic payment processing setting interchange fees and becoming one of the top interchange experts in the U.S. Pat was recruited to work at Fifth Third Bank for its processing solutions subsidiary, which is now called Worldpay, in the Cincinnati headquarters. Pat spent nearly 8 years working at Fifth Third Processing Solutions in the merchant processing business as a product and pricing manager as Vice President of Interchange Strategy. It was during this time that Pat first met Howard Herndon, and the earliest groundwork for BlackLine Advisory Group was laid. When Fifth Third Processing Solutions went public, Pat made the jump to independent consulting. Pat and Howard observed the lack of coordination among the commercial, managerial, and legal aspects of the electronic payments space. The challenges that had been faced by Pat’s clients over the years were intrinsically multifaceted, but there was no company that existed to bridge these gaps. The two co-founded BlackLine to change that. Pat currently serves as a director for BlackLine and provides high level consulting in the merchant acquiring side of the value chain. In addition to his consulting roles, Pat has served as an expert witness in several payment-related proceedings.

It is a EU-funded 1.5M€ 5-year initiative, led by Samer Hassan and based in the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (Spain), with advisors from the Berkman Klein Center (Harvard University). The project will contribute to the Blockchain ecosystem, from a commons-oriented approach (not focused on finance). It will build software modules, grounded on social theory, for the easy building of Decentralized Autonomous Organizations that aim to support collaborative communities.

There is an old saying: every people end up with the leader they deserve. In Russian, it is the basis for a moderately clever wordplay, making the point that every people get buggered by their leader. Stop talking about "Russia" (except where journalistic convention demands it). These guys aren't Russia. They are criminal gang of bullies, crooks and murderers who have hijacked Russia. This is a widely held opinion. It is also absolutely, inexcusably wrong. This assertion is so wrong, in fact, that it is past misguided - it is actively harmful. I've said this before: the Russian mentality does not include a sense of immediate responsibility. The Western model of society is founded on the concept of citizens delegating their power to representatives; there is an implied obligation by the citizen to watch whom he hands over his power to. This is a very basic idea, and the entire philosophy of democracy and civil liberty is no more than guidelines to applying it in typical situations. And yes, this idea is applicable to Russia, because it is a country with a strong and proud revolutionary history. Russians have proven that when they are propery unhappy with their rulers, the rulers are going down. Many Russians feel uncomfortable with the actions of their state, and they excuse themselves by imploring others not to equate the Russian people with the Russian government. I am disappointed in Edward Lucas for perpetuating this intellectual farce. They would have us believe that all the evil and injustice of Russia is down to the Chekists, or the Bolsheviks, or the Jews. But the bastards are only in the Kremlin because the common Russian people put them there. Every bullet through the brain of a journalist, every conscript beaten into a bloody pulp by his sergeant, every mortar round fired at a North Caucasus village, is the responsibility of every single Russian who did not march on Red Square and stay there until the thugs were hauled out of the government offices by the scruffs of their necks. Only when individual Russians learn to take personal responsibility for actions taken on their behalf will Russia be a country that can be approached with Western terms. Is it still called Red Square? Really? Of course. It was always called that. It's actually a mistranslation, the word comes from the old Slavic word for "beautiful". Though I do wish Russians would take more responsibility and realize that many Russians enjoy blaming everybody but themselves (you left out the Latvian bayonets that went with the Jewish brains in imposing Bolshevism!), I can't really agree with what you are saying when it's applied to history. "But the bastards are only in the Kremlin because the common Russian people put them there." That certainly doesn't apply to the Bolsheviks, for example. Except in a few small areas (like Southern Livland, ahem), the common people didn't put the Reds in power. There was a civil war, and the Reds won through terror. Terror can be, and often is, remarkably effective -- and leaves a hangover. "Russians have proven that when they are proper[l]y unhappy with their rulers, the rulers are going down." But that's obviously not true, unless one claims that people were happy under Stalin until his death or that they weren't unhappy enough in 1905. Russia has had almost no experience of delegating power to representatives in an effective or meaningful way. The same can be said of its former vassals -- but democracy failed in the three Baltic states between the wars also (and is not functioning especially well in Latvia and Lithuania now, though we're light years ahead of Russia). Finland, which was able to develop a civil society after its civil war, does have a tradition of representation. Today's Estonia is an exception. Looking at Ukraine, despite the effort of the people staying in the square until the thugs were hauled off, is not exactly inspiring... and a similar effort in the square in Minsk didn't come off. Latvia threw a little "Umbrella Revolution" last year -- with what result? I certainly agree that we should take responsibility, but the majority here is cynical, apathetic and/or politically nihilistic, too. Many if not most Russians see democracy as a farce. That's not a sentiment that comes out of the blue -- it reflects both recent and ingrained experience. "There never was a revolution..." "the common people didn't put the Reds in power" This is symptomatic; one would almost think the Reds were dropped in by Martians. "unless one claims that people were happy under Stalin until his death" A very large percentage of peasants and unskilled labourers were - just like the majority of the Russian people are happy under Putin now. This is my point: Russians do actually support bastards who act against the people's best interests. "Many if not most Russians see democracy as a farce. That's not a sentiment that comes out of the blue -- it reflects both recent and ingrained experience." I don't disagree. As I was saying, Russians should take more responsibility for their country - but don't. Well, I wonder if it is really that clear cut - with this history of continuous state terror, is it such a wonder that the people tend to be timid and cautious and thus the power is fairly easily scooped up by the most unscrupulous and morally corrupt? Would you have said that the ordinary Russians "put" Lenin and Stalin into power? Or the czars? Yes, more civic responsibility would be in order but these things take time and in the meanwhile we do have a self-appointed ruthless, corrupt and primitive clique in power in the Kremlin. That is a bit of a problem, surely. "Would you have said that the ordinary Russians "put" Lenin and Stalin into power?" We can treat the symptoms, but Russia will continue to have self-appointed, corrupt and primitive cliques in power until the Russian people start taking responsibility. Nobody else can do it for them. It is bit hard when you have to start from the scratch - you have to build structures and institutions, these things don't happen overnight. I'm not sure that it would be fruitful for example to blame the the body of the individual Afghan citizens for not having a democracy - or by implication to applaud the Swiss that they do. Causes and concequences are often hard to separate, but I would say that the present mindset of the majority of Russians is more a concequence than cause of the continuing undemocratic and unfree nature of the society. It's harder when you don't start at all. It might be a consequence, but that doesn't preclude it from perpetuating the mindfuck. The vicious circle must be broken, and no benevolent dictator can do it for them. And btw, communist revolution was provided with german/jewish funding? Not sure that even this change of power was done by ordinary russians?
