Please try searching in a different location or using alternative search terms to find what you're looking for. If you need assistance, feel free to reach out to our support team for help! COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT CABINET REFINISHING What licenses or qualifications are good to look for in a cabinet refinishing contractor? Though there may not be industry-mandated licenses designed for cabinet refinishing professionals, there are certain qualifications and indicators of skill that you can refer to when vetting someone to refinish your cabinets. Many of the best contractors will prominently display their background in carpentry, woodworking, or a related field on their Thumbtack profile. You will want to ask the contractor you are thinking about hiring for photos of cabinets they have refinished for previous clients, especially featuring finished projects that are similar to the style you're trying to accomplish. Besides a portfolio, most professional contractors will demonstrate their experience and reliability through online client feedback. A reputable professional will give a clear written estimate of the job before it begins, listing the scope of work, materials, and all associated costs. Contractors should have adequate communication skills and a readiness to answer all of your questions and concerns regarding budget, time, and quality during the refinishing project. It would be wise to also ask for warranties or guarantees with the service, which is another factor that can show they have confidence in the quality of their workmanship. What methods are used when an expert refinishes cabinets? A contractor handling your cabinet refinishing task will adhere to an established process for efficiency and excellent results. There are typically many steps used to transform the appearance of existing cabinets, such as: - Assessment and Preparation: Cabinets are first inspected to ensure they are in proper condition to be refinished. If they are, all gear will be taken off, such as handles, knobs, and hinges, and the surfaces will be cleaned to remove any dirt, grease, or other residue. - Touch-Up and Fill: Some minor issues, such as scratches, dents, and other imperfections in the wood will be repaired or filled before being blended in with staining or painting. - Painting or Staining: Whatever you choose for paint, stain, or finishing method will be applied in careful, even coats to accomplish the style you're looking for. The drying and curing phase will be critical to giving a high-quality result, and may need a few hours to accomplish. - Reassembly: Once the paint or stain has dried, all hardware will be put back on and cabinets fully reassembled for use. A quality inspection will make sure the final results satisfies your expectations, which includes a last cleanup of the full work area. It's important to note that the specific refinishing process may vary based on things like the model of cabinets and the chosen finish. Also, professionals may perform detailed techniques, such as distressing or glazing, to accomplish specific aesthetic effects, which could require a longer amount of time. Be sure to speak clearly with anyone you hire to ensure they have the skill to bring your vision to reality. What are the distinctions of cabinet refacing and the refinishing of cabinets? Refacing and refinishing cabinets are two terms often used interchangeably, but there are considerable differences between the two and professional contractors will need to know which service you need. Refacing focuses on substituting the doors or drawer fronts with new materials, while refinishing updates the present doors or drawers by sanding and repainting or restaining them. Each technique has a unique approach and offers a distinctive effect in the style of your cabinets, the primary differences being that refacing changes materials while refinishing uses existing ones How long will refinished cabinets survive One of the great advantages with wood is that it can be refinished multiple times to make furniture appear the way it did when new, and this benefit applies to wood cabinets, too. The frequency at which one can refinish cabinets depends on several factors, such as the quality of the wood, the components, and how well the cabinets have been maintained. How long any refinished cabinets will hold up before the process must be done again depends on how often they are used and what sort of maintenance you perform. A well-done cabinet refinishing job should last anywhere between five and ten years or more, depending on the factors talked about above. One Place for All The Information Needed To Hire The Right Cabinet Refinisher Near Big Rapids, Michigan With Confidence Cabinet refinishing is a great way to transform the style of your kitchen by updating the appearance of existing cabinets without the need for a complete replacement. Expert cabinet refinishers sand and apply your choice of finishes, like paint, stain, or other techniques to your present cabinets to give a new look that suits your sense of style and design preferences. The affordability of cabinet refinishing is one of the first perks, and many people in Big Rapids, Michigan have reported paying as much as 70% less than they would on having new cabinets built and hung. Achieving a fresh and modern look for your kitchen cabinets for less money will maximize the return on your investment, boosting the value of your home in the process. Environmental considerations also play a role in why more people are beginning to refinish their cabinets versus buy and install new ones. Refinishing is a green option that celebrates eco-conscious practices in home improvement by minimizing toxic waste and lessening demand for wood products. Another great advantage of cabinet refinishing is that the service will be many times less disruptive to your household than the mess generated to install new ones. Regardless of buying stock or custom-built new cabinets, the space where they're hung will often face some degree of demolition and reconstruction before they fit properly. The result is much more dust and could take weeks or months to get your kitchen ready for use again, whereas an effective refinishing job is less messy and a convenient alternative for anyone working with a shorter timeframe. When searching for a contractor for your cabinet refinishing project, get a feel for their experience and skill through galleries of past work, if they supply any warranties on their workmanship, online client reviews, and how well they communicate with you about time and budget. All of this important information and more is on the powerful Thumbtack platform so you can hire a cabinet refinishing contractor in Big Rapids, Michigan with confidence.

We are European handmade music instrument manufacturer and craft our instruments with love and care. We hope you decide to join the Kremona family by enjoying our beautiful instruments. Thank you for visiting our page. Our story is below... At the conclusion of WW I-st a young soldier exited the fronts of Europe with his companion mandolin and earned an apprenticeship at the bench of the Markneukirchen masters. He emerged among the league of master luthiers forged in that legendary German burg. That man – Dimitar Georgiev – returned home to Bulgaria, and in 1924, founded Kremona with his two entrepreneurial brothers. Over time, the brothers welcomed other world-class master builders into the Kremona family. As Kremona instruments spread across Europe, discerning musicians everywhere became part of the extended family. Today, Kremona flourishes with that same family spirit. We chose to introduce our wares the way we’ve always done it, by putting our instruments in the hands of musicians, well-known distributors and caring shop owners, one guitar love at a time. We’re pleased to find our efforts have been well worth it. Every day we hear from our extended family, players and purveyors from all over the world who, trough their love of music and enthusiasm for participation, have become part of what we are today. As we invite you to peruse this representation of our work (our family of guitars, if you will), we would like to thank YOU – our extended family of musicians, music educators and music professionals, for joining us in support of our commitment to the specialized craft and long tradition of guitar building.

I created a stream and there are times when my rabbitmq is in an infinite loop, and it doesn’t proceed with the stream and I also can’t stop the stream then I need to restart n8n, is this really a bug? Hi @Ruan17, this is unfortunately the expected behaviour with n8n during a workflow execution. n8n would only check whether a workflow execution has been cancelled between each node. Many nodes use timeouts on their own to prevent an infinite execution like you have described, but it seems the RabbitMQ node does not. Seeing this would be quite useful to have I’ve converted your question into a feature request so you and other users (including myself) can leave their vote on it.

7 Simple Life Hacks That Can Help You in Any Situation Before we were privileged with so many inventions that made our lives super easy, people had to use a variety of methods to do things. For example, ancient Egyptians used tall obelisks so they could tell time. Depending on how and where the shadows would fall, they could tell approximately what time it was. Now, luckily, we have clocks that tell us the time, but it wouldn’t be bad to know a few finger tricks to assist us in our everyday lives. Bright Side collected 7 easy tricks that only require the use of your fingers in order to perform. 1. Use your fingers to predict the sunset. The first thing you should know is that every finger accounts for 15 minutes of remaining sun time. So, hold your hand between the sun and the horizon and count how many fingers separate them. If, for example, there are 4 fingers in between, then you are 1 hour away from sunset. Keep in mind that the closer you are to the poles, the more sunlight time you get since you are closer to the sun. 2. Count from 1 to 1,023 using only 2 hands. Starting with the number 1, double every number and appoint them to all your fingers. By doing so, the biggest number you will have is 512. If you add up all the numbers, the final result should give you 1,023, and you will only have used your 2 hands. 3. Use a cupcake liner under your popsicle. Having a messy kid that creates chaos in everything they do is not necessarily something to worry about. So, when, for example, they want to eat a popsicle, you can add a cupcake liner underneath to catch all the drips. This trick isn’t just good for kids, but also for adults who tend to make a mess when they eat things that melt. This way, you won’t have to clean up if your popsicle melts a little bit. 4. Create the perfect circle without any special tools. If you don’t happen to have a drafting compass, there is another way you can draw a perfect circle. The first step is to put your pinky knuckle on the paper and keep it pressed down. Grab a pen and start spinning the piece of paper. If you keep your knuckle firm on the paper, you should be able to draw a perfect circle. 5. Add some extra gestures to your rock, paper, scissors game. This game is one of the simplest and most popular ones amongst kids, but it can be turned into a pro adult game. Adding more moves can make the game extra hard and way more interesting. There is no move that beats all and you will have to think harder about which one to pull every single time. 6. Use your fingers as measurements. Our very own hands can be a quick and practical tool for approximate measuring. In general, the first joint of our index finger is about 2.5 cm long. And if we spread our hand wide, the span from the tip of the thumb to the pinkie tip is usually about 23 cm. And the span from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the index finger is usually about 15 cm. You can also use your finger and fist to measure the degrees in the sky. The biggest degree measurement is when you lift your thumb and your little finger, creating a 25° angle. Obviously, not every person’s fingers are the same size, but you can follow the picture above to get results that are as close to the expected as possible. 7. Place your fingers strategically to climb through cracks. The fingerlock is the first and easiest way you can pass by a rock crack. You should put your fingers inside the crack until the knuckles of your fingers are locked in. The knuckles will offer you the sense of stability that you’ll need in order to find your next grabbing point. My boss handles stress terribly, so in one-on-ones, he tends to snap and spend the hour complaining about people. When I first began in my department, he noticed me putting on perfume and said his wife wears the same one (it’s not anything fancy, just one that’s widely known). Every time I go into my one-on-one with him, I apply the perfume right before. He generally speaks very softly to me and doesn’t snap at me like he does with others, and I’m pretty sure it’s because he smells me and thinks of his wife. © theanti_girl / Reddit Which one of the tricks mentioned above will you try out first? Will it be the more complex rock, paper, scissors game or will you try predicting the sunset using your fingers?

Title Image: Gail Kent, founder of T-Secret, giving a facial The best secret in Orlando, Florida is Tamahra’s Secret, aka T-Secret, a skin care salon in College Park. It’s not Orlando’s best kept secret, by any means, because it is widely known both locally and nationally and, indeed, clients fly in from around the country for treatments. When Gail began almost 30 years ago in Mexico, she was a one-woman operation. Today she has 14 employees. (Not pictured: Agelique Trabal, Erin Read, Lily Ngaruiya, Jessica Prado, Kendall Crofoot) The secret? Gail is an acne specialist. I could call her a guru, but I’ll go with the Yiddish and give her the title Acne Maven. First, see the results: T-Secret’s success does not come from drying the skin either from the inside (by taking oral medications like tetracycline) or from the outside (by using benzoyl peroxide wipes). Rather, dramatically improved skin results from two important elements of Gail’s treatment: Extractions are the key to Gail’s success. Her aestheticians first properly steam the skin and then, pore-by-pore and with gentle fingers, take out all the white heads and black heads. Only by clearing out the skin can the healing process begin. It is not unusual for a single treatment to last two and even three hours. It might take repeated extraction sessions for the skin to get on the right path. But eventually healing occurs, and then clients need come back only for touch-ups. Dairy products can clog pores, so if you’re a cheese lover and you have acne problems you’ll have to give it up. The real culprit in dairy is the high amount of sugar, which produces triglycerides, which in turn cause congestion not only in the skin but also in the arteries and heart muscle. So if you’re a sweet-eater and have acne, it’s time to kick the sugar habit. A good, balanced diet results in good digestion, which also entails (I’m putting it out there) good bowel movements. If you’re not pooping on a regular basis, the waste has to go somewhere and may well end up on your skin. Gross, yes, but real. There is a third pillar to T-Secret’s treatments, and it is the exclusive product line Gail personally makes in her lab. However I intend this blog more as a Public Service Announcement – to let people know that a reliable treatment exists for even the most severe acne – than as an advertisement for the salon’s products, so I won’t go on and on about them. Having said that, however, T-Secret’s products are pure, reasonably priced, and I’ve been happily using them for years. T-Secret’s facials are great for any type of skin (mine is very dry), but I’m focusing here on problem skin because getting rid of acne can change a person’s life. Here’s what Gail has to say about her life’s work: For more information, call: 407.999.5008 Or visit: http://www.tsecret.com/ See also: T-Secret and the Don Quijote Awards This post was written by Julie Tetel Andresen

from The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition. - abbreviation high-occupancy vehicle from Wiktionary, Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License. from Wiktionary, Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License While I personally don't really care if it's light rail or BRT (okay, I prefer BRT - it's cheaper and easier to make changes to), it's not just a matter of making it easier for buses to get across (which would be good - people are more likely to take buses if they're not getting caught up in HOV traffic), it's also good for jobs. Fix the left to right to left again HOV lane fiasco we have But in the case of Hovnanian Enterprises HOV, which is up 20% in the same period, investors may have gotten carried away. Home Builder Stuck in the Basement Robin Goldwyn Blumenthal 2012 The bus driver is on I-75 one road basically all night long, gets to Atlanta and there's something called the HOV, high occupancy vehicle lane. We still have to deal with the westbound, where there's other evidence that have to be looked at of panels that have been compromised, and the HOV, which is a high-speed lane, as well. Hi, It's funny you should call the HOV - high occupancy vehicle - lane a commuter lane, because there are so many commuters stuck in traffic in the other lanes who would love to be allowed in. Mr. O'Toole calls HOV lanes "fampool lanes" - because family size alone typically determines the number of people in any particular car at any particular time. Word Spy 2008 Many large cities have what is known as the HOV lane (high occupancy vehicle) to encourage drivers to commute to work. HOV lanes need to be very distinctly marked, and those lanes should have either an arrow pointing down saying "HOV," high occupancy vehicle, or they should have diamonds or both. The THINK EV-Ready Cities Index takes into account purchase and usage incentives - such as HOV lane access and infrastructure support - for electric vehicles as well as market fit, which includes factors such as hybrid sales, traffic congestion, EPA non-attainment zone status (air quality), and potential lower-carbon energy sources for vehicle recharging.

With COVID-19 affecting everyone, I just wanted to affirm that I am still available to help you with your computer service needs. I am able to provide remote assistance, on-site service calls, and if it makes you more comfortable, I am now offering the option for you to drop off your device(s) at my house or have me pick up your device(s) from your location, make the necessary repairs back at my location, and deliver them back to you ready to go. If there is anything else I can assist you with during this trying times, please feel free to reach out at your convenience. What I Will Do To reduce the spread of COVID-19 I will do the following: - Wear a mask during any interaction with customers - Use hand sanitizer before and after any interaction with customers - Keep a safe distance - Disinfect any devices and surfaces that I have touched as part of the service - Keep a record of all face to face customer interaction so that in the event of a customer or myself testing positive, I can inform all customers who may have been exposed. For customers who are high risk or immune compromised, only remote service appointments are possible at this time. I cannot guarantee that I have not been exposed to the virus. I believe that we all need to act as if we have been exposed to the virus and do everything we can to protect others against the spread. I request that customers please adhere to the following before scheduling an appointment: - Inform me if you have travelled outside of the province within the last 14 days - Inform me if you show any symptoms of COVID-19 - Inform me if you have been in contact with anyone who has shown symptoms of COVID-19 within the last 14 days If any of these circumstances apply after you have scheduled an appointment that includes face to face interaction, please inform me and cancel your appointment ASAP.

I am currently providing the following computer service options: - Remote Assistance - Pick Up / Drop Off - On-Site Service If your computer is connected to the internet, I can likely connect to it remotely and diagnose and resolve your issue.

Some jobs simply require on-site service. - Your computer is not connected to the internet - You require a network printer to be installed - You require troubleshooting of your internet connection The above jobs (and others) require me to work at your home / business. While on-site I will wear a mask at all times, use hand sanitizer before and after the service call and disinfect devices and surfaces I have touched as part of the service.

Owners who feed raw eggs to dogs could also be exposed to salmonella. If a dog eats an egg contaminated by salmonella, they could get an infection called Salmonellosis. The symptoms of Salmonellosis includes fever, vomiting, diarrhea, and lethargy. Biotin deficiency — Feeding raw eggs can lead to biotin deficiency, as egg whites contain avidin, an enzyme that prevents absorption of biotin in the body. Biotin is a vitamin that supports healthy skin, metabolism, cells, and digestion. Biotin deficiencies are rare in dogs, but can happen. Bacteria — As eggs go bad, they can grow bacteria that can harm your pup. It’s also possible that your dog will be allergic to eggs. Watch your dog for any symptoms of an allergic reaction, including sneezing, swelling, hives, problems breathing, lethargy, or coughing. If you plan to feed your pup raw egg, speak to your veterinarian first. Raw Eggs For Pets – Dangerous or Beneficial? Eggs can be controversial – especially raw eggs for dogs. People worry about problems like salmonella poisoning or even a biotin deficiency from feeding eggs to dogs. So … can dogs eat eggs? Let’s take a closer look. Eggs have some amazing health benefits for dogs. They’re a complete food source. After all, they have all the nutrients a baby chick needs to grow inside the egg until it hatches into a chicken. Here are some of the important nutrients in eggs. Protein Eggs are one of the most complete sources available of aminoacids, the building blocks of protein By adding eggs to your dog’s meals, you’re boosting the protein in his diet. Vitamins And Minerals Eggs are a nutritional powerhouse, with a wide range of nutrients, such as …

Stephen Kingsley is set to become the latest big name to commit his future to Hearts after Craig Halkett penned a new deal. The left-back is on the verge of agreeing a long-term extension, with Jambos sporting director Joe Savage in talks with him. Kingsley, 27, is out of contract in the summer but is set to join Craig Gordon and Halkett in committing to the Tynecastle club long-term. Defender Halkett penned a new two-year deal that will keep him in Gorgie until the summer of 2024. The 26-year-old said: “It is great to get it sorted because it has been a wee while.

They have reached the Scottish Cup Final, got demoted after the Premiership was called early after Covid, and he then helped the Jambos bounce back by winning the Championship. Now they are sitting third in the top flight. Halkett is determined to see Hearts finish there and to take them into Europe. He said: “When I first signed at Hearts [in 2019] where we are now is where I thought we were going to be back then. “Unfortunately, it didn’t turn out that way. “It was quite tough at the time going down the leagues and having to come back up. “However, we are where we are now and I am really happy with that. “When I joined I always saw this club pushing at the top of the Premiership, getting into the European places and getting into cup finals, and trying to win trophies. I feel like we are getting in those positions now. “We are sitting third in the league and we have a chance to progress in the Scottish Cup. That is the aim for us going forward. “Third is where we want to be come the end of the season, to get European football. It is something I have always wanted to do and if I could do that with Hearts it would be brilliant.” Halkett is pleased with the progress his team-mates have made this season but he knows they have achieved nothing yet. They return to action at home against St Johnstone on Tuesday, then travel to take on Auchinleck Talbot in the Scottish Cup. Ex-Livingston star Halkett said: “It is massive. We had a first good six months of the season but we are only halfway there. “It is really important we get our heads back down and work hard. “We’ve had a good break and now we are looking to finish the job.” Scottish football is now allowed full stadiums for the return and Halkett added: “Getting the fans back in is massive. Everybody can see how important they are here at Hearts. “We’ve had around 18,000 fans for our recent home games and it has shown with our results. “Getting them back in is huge and hopefully we can give them a lot more to cheer about.” Meanwhile, Hearts have recalled kid Harry Stone from his loan with Partick Thistle. They are now considering other moves for the keeper in League One and Two.

The News Tribune reports on elections to equip community members with the tools they need to participate in democracy. That includes sharing candidates' positions on important issues and making information about the voting process accessible. For full coverage of local candidates in the November 2020 election, visit newstribune.com/election. The race for Missouri's House of Representatives District 50 seat is down to two candidates. Incumbent Sara Walsh, R-Ashland, and challenger Kari Chesney, D-Columbia, shared their policy goals and areas of focus ahead of November's election. Among them were the topics of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and criminal justice. Walsh was first elected to her current seat in a special election in August 2017. She has previously held a number of roles prior to her time in public office, from working as a staff auditor for the Missouri State Auditor's Office and legislative assistant for the Missouri House of Representatives to being a quality control inspector for Maytag and a deli worker at Moser's Foods in Holts Summit. Chesney currently works as a veterinarian and research scientist at the University of Missouri, where she received her doctorate of veterinary medicine in 2015 and a Ph.D. in comparative medicine in 2020. Both candidates ran unopposed in the August primary election. Walsh said investing in education, protecting small business, supporting public safety, demanding accountability, and fighting for life and liberty have been her main priorities. Specifically, she said, there are a number of pieces of legislation she hopes to get across the finish line in the Legislature's next session: finding a fix to the unintended consequences of "Nathan's Law" regarding in-home licensed child care facilities, reintroducing legislation to allow the city of Ashland to put a lodging tax on the ballot, continuing to ensure funding for Missouri Task Force 1, and re-filing legislation that would make knowingly directing the light of a laser pointer at a uniformed safety officer a Class A misdemeanor. Chesney said one of the most important areas of policy focus in her campaign is agriculture. "We have seen a record number of family farms shut down in the past several years - partly due to unstable weather causing massive drought one year and severe floods the next, and partly due to massive takeover of Missouri farmland by coastal and international agribusiness," Chesney said. She said Missouri needs to provide a means for its farms to compete with these groups - potentially through cooperatives and larger buying power - and to address the inevitable pollution and loss of property values as a result of corporate factory farms (CAFOs) moving into the area. Chesney said she was opposed to Senate Bill 391 and thinks local control should not be taken away when it comes to matters of their environment. Chesney also said she would focus on education policy, with an emphasis on increasing teacher salaries and restoring vital resources and time spent in school omitted when Missouri legislators fully funded the state's public schools several years ago. In regards to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, both candidates acknowledge work will continue into next year. Walsh said, as a member of the House Budget Committee, she will soon begin the process of hearing testimony from state departments regarding their response to the pandemic. She said she plans to work with her colleagues to consider the state department's budget requests, as well as what did and didn't work in the state's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and she will support any legislation that may be needed to better clarify or remove current state statutes or enact new ones. "I supported the appropriation of a substantial amount of federal and state dollars to assist Missourians impacted by COVID-19," Walsh said of her work in the House during this year as the pandemic spread. She said her office has worked with many constituents from District 50 to help them navigate their state government, access grants and receive assistance. Chesney said the pandemic has laid bare the failings in Missouri's public health funding and disaster preparedness and that the state needs to reevaluate the public health budget next session to ensure it has the means to protect its citizens. She also said elected officials should be doing more to look out for their constituents. "The very least our elected officials could do is lead by example: wear masks, cancel in-person events and practice social distancing," Chesney said. "Many of them have been reluctant or opposed to these actions. These are all proven methods to reduce (COVID-19) risk and numbers." In regards to criminal justice reform, Walsh said she serves on a pair of House committees that led to her being actively engaged in studying and enacting policies, programs and funding with regards to public safety. "I am most passionate about public safety because in order to have a well-functioning civil society, peace must be maintained," Walsh said. "Life and property rights must be upheld. People want to live, work and play in safe neighborhoods." She said well-funded, trained members of law enforcement are essential to help maintain law and order and in keeping the peace, defending Missourians' freedoms and upholding the incentive to live, work or do business in a community. Chesney, from her perspective, said crime is a symptom of much larger policy failings in the government; she said most individuals commit crimes due to some unfulfilled need. "Slapping a Band-Aid on crime by mandating harsher punishments or longer minimum sentences will do nothing to stem the tide of crime in our state," Chesney said. She said Missouri lacks equity, as well as resources, for mental health, homelessness and veterans' services, and the root causes of people's pain must be fixed before crime will decrease. Chesney also said the state's criminal justice system needs critique; though police officers provide a vital service to their communities, they've been burdened with taking on the additional roles of mental health professional and guidance counselor in their day-to-day job. She said pairing social workers with police officers would help to fulfill the full array of distress and emergency needs. "We need to expand funding to our police departments and make sure they are fully staffed, but we also need to reimagine what it means to be a first responder in these departments," Chesney said.

More Ways To Make Money With ChatGPT and AI - 8 Hot Jobs and 4 Industries Adding More Workers The rise of generative AI tools has revolutionized the way we work, but it's important to note that AI isn't replacing human workers. In fact, according to a recent survey conducted by Upwork, 64% of C-suite executives plan to hire more professionals of all types due to generative AI.

Hello Sisterhood readers. It’s time for the Mailbag Monday segment with your running questions. This week we’ll look briefly at two questions from Sisterhood members and see if we can clarify some things. Our first question comes from Karena and goes like this: “I’m power walking the Disney half marathon in January, and am looking for advice about fueling/hydrating before/during/after the race. Most advice I find is geared toward runners. I’m not sure how to translate that to my needs. My exertion is less, but over an extended period of time. I’ve read about walkers and hyponatremia — I think that’s probably a rare occurence, but don’t want to be a statistic!” So let me first re-cap for anyone that doesn’t know what Karena is talking about. When we exercise we sweat. Sweating is the body’s way to cool itself. Water is pushed out through the pores onto the skin, air flows over it, providing a cooling of the skin. Blood flowing under the skin is then cooled as it is moving back toward the core of the body, which helps keep body temperature under control. There are three important things to realize about this process. First, water is a large part of our blood volume As we sweat our blood volume decreases and this impacts our performance, the way we feel, and our internal workings. So while we need to sweat to stay cool, we need to replace fluids in order to avoid problems associated with dehydration. Second, when we perspire, we are losing more than just water, but also minerals called electrolytes. These minerals — sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium — are important for functions within the muscles, so as we lose them we start having other problems, most notably cramps. Third, consuming too much plain water can cause problems all of its own. A condition called hyponatremia — while rare — can develop by drinking so much plain water that blood sodium levels get diluted, leading to swelling and other problems. Now with all of that in mind, the question comes down to the difference between runners and walkers and their hydration needs. This is actually a simple question for once. It doesn’t really matter whether you’re running or walking, you need to manage your hydration based on your own individual needs. Sweat rates are highly individualized. A person can run very intensely and not sweat much at all. Another person can be walking and by so sweaty that they look like they have been in a shower (and have a pretzel-like coating of salt on their brow). The bottom-line is that we all need to drink an appropriate amount of fluid for our own sweat rate. The best way to measure our sweat rate is to do a sweat test: start by weighing yourself naked, put your clothes on, then run or walk for 60 minutes. Now take off your clothes and re-weigh yourself. The difference in your weight is the amount of fluid that you lost to sweat during that one hour period. If you’ve consumed fluids during the test, make sure to account for that in your weigh-in. If during an hour you lost say 2 pounds that would equate to 32 ounces. So 32 ounces of fluids is what you should be drinking under those same temperature and humidity conditions to maintain your fluids. As the temperature and humidity climbs, so too will your sweat rate. I will add here that walkers do have one or two unique quirks. First, I’ve noticed that many walkers dress more heavily than runners. This can mean that they sweat more on cold days than other participants. Second, many walkers are heavy and so they may be working considerably harder than a skinny runner would be. Taken together, walkers often sweat up a storm and need to drink plenty. The last thing that I’ll add is that both runners and walkers can almost completely ignore the fear of hyponatremia by simply drinking a fluid that contains plenty of sodium. Electrolyte-rich drinks like Nuun Active Hydration contain enough sodium that even if you were to over-drink (meaning drinking far more than you are sweating), you would be unlikely to develop hyponatremia. You can also supplement the amount of sodium by carrying one or two packs of salt and dropping them in a container of water during the race. Bottom line here is that you should drink to your needs (which you much measure on your own) and avoid drinking too much plain water. Drink the fluid replacement drink offered by the race or a drink like Nuun in your workouts and you’ll feel much better. With regard to nutrition, the same rules apply for runners and walkers. Both need to be replacing at least 250 calories per hour. But the main difference is that walkers have the ability to consumer more solid foods than runners, because their digestive tract is more amenable to solid food than someone who is running. Walkers can add in the variety of sandwiches, fruit and other foods that wouldn’t work for runners. I would add here that walkers often sell themselves short by trying to survive for 5-8 hours on nothing but energy gels and pretzels. Put on a waist-pack and bring some real food along. You’ll feel so much better than “skipping” those meals that you’d miss during that many hours out on the course. Question 2 today is a short one: can you touch on doing races and training while pregnant? Just like our last topic, pregnancy is highly individualized. Not all pregnancies are created equally and so the answer is going to vary from woman to woman. But with that said, here are some things that we can say. First, the more fit the mother, the longer into her pregnancy she’ll be able to continue training and racing. I have had friends that have raced late into their pregnancies and I’ve known women that have trained nearly up to their due date. What this often comes down to is how fit the woman already is when she starts her pregnancy and how well she keeps up her workouts early in the pregnancy if and when she’s fighting through fatigue and morning sickness. Without a doubt, exercise helps expectant moms stay fit, energized and positive. Exercise also helps with the recovery from the pregnancy itself and the fatigue and work-load of the mom with a brand-new baby at home. But there are risks associated with exercising while pregnant and even the most fit mother-to-be may have complications or conditions that would prevent her from training and racing. So as with all pregnancy related matters, talk with your doctor and determine how long and how hard you can continue training and racing. Good luck Sisters!

Real Madrid have turned down an approach from Arsenal for Spanish midfielder Isco, with Unai Emery keen on securing a January deal. The 26-year-old has found himself in and out of the team in recent weeks at the Santiago Bernabeu and according to Don Balon, he has become frustrated by his lack of playing time. Los Blancos have endured a nightmare start to the 2018-19 season, falling seven points behind Barcelona in the La Liga title race after losing 5-1 at the Camp Nou in October, which cost Julen Lopetegui his job as manager. Santiago Solari has been appointed on an interim basis and has overseen three successive wins in all competitions, but according to Don Balon, with the winter transfer window fast approaching, several top clubs are said to be monitoring Isco’s situation – including Manchester City, Liverpool and Juventus. However, Don Balon also reports that Arsenal have stolen a march on their rivals in pursuit of the Spaniard, having tabled a €50m offer for the disillusioned superstar which Madrid have rejected. Gunners boss Emery reportedly gave the deal the go-ahead as he looks for reinforcements in midfield to give his team the edge in pursuit of a top-four Premier League finish next year. Unfortunately, it seems that Arsenal will have to shell out a much larger fee to lure Isco away from Madrid, particularly given his age and status as one of the most creative and technically gifted players in Europe. That being said, the emergence of Vinicius Jr and Gareth Bale’s standing at the Bernabeu means that at the moment, Isco may be open to moving away from the club in search of regular playing time and he would certainly fit in well at the Emirates. This story looks set to develop in the new year, particularly if Madrid’s fortunes continue to improve with the playmaker sitting on the bench.

The Marlborough, Mass.-based robotic exoskeleton device maker posted losses of -$2.9 million, or -14¢ per share, on sales of $1.2 million for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2020, for a 17.6% bottom-line gain on sales growth of 3.1%. Adjusted to exclude one-time items, losses per share were also -14¢, coming in equal with projections on Wall Street, where analysts were looking for sales of $1.5 million. “We are encouraged with our overall results in FY 2020,” ReWalk Robotics CEO Larry Jasinski said in a news release. “Although we have faced and continue to face the effects of Covid-19 in several of our key markets, during this last year we progressed our CMS initiative as we created a new code for exoskeleton and, if our planned coverage application is successful, it will allow a significant number of the U.S. spinal cord injury population access to our device. “Our German insurance contracts continued to expand as more payors are joining them and with our strengthened cash position we can maximize our company’s potential.” ReWalk Robotics did not offer financial guidance for 2021. RWLK shares were down -8.5$ pre-market at $4.50 per share today.

Announcing Hello Neighbor Modding Competition - HelloMods! With $5k in cash prizes You've clamored for it, you've drowned our Twitter DMs about it, and stalked us all the way to our real-life homes for it. No, really - imagine going out of your house to work, and 4 kids are standing there holding hands singing a Hello Neighbor song. This happened. It's finally here! We're announcing the Hello Neighbor Modding Competition HelloMods.com We've partnered up with ModDB to giveaway cash prizes and games for the best mods created based on the newly released Hello Neighbor Mod Kit. $5k in cash prizes Fully moddable version of Beta 3 of Hello Neighbor Available via he Unreal Engine Installer Any coverage regarding the modding event is greatly appreciated. I personally can't wait until someone makes a sewer level with a clown chasing the player. The way the Mod Kit is setup allows modders to create whole new levels, puzzles, and use the self-learning AI. To give a simple example, I made a level that has a lot of doors. Built like a labyrinth puzzle. I made he Neighbor spawn in the map via a trigger set to one of he doors. Since he AI is programmed to notice and investigatte map changes, he quickly picked up my trail and followed my footsteps. From that point onwards the level plays like an anxiety inducing chase.

Public transport is more environmentally friendly than driving, as it reduces greenhouse gas emissions and congestion. Busy travel also produces less noise and air pollution than a car journey. Table of Contents It Saves Time Car transport is an excellent option for people who need to travel long distances. It’s accessible from start to finish, and your car is shipped safely to its destination. It’s also much more manageable than driving your vehicle, as you won’t have to deal with traffic and pit stops. You can spend the time you would have spent driving on other things, like relaxing or working on home projects. For many, owning a car symbolizes independence and status, especially in sparsely populated areas with limited public transportation. Several studies have shown that over 90% of older drivers would not give up driving, even if it restricted their journeys to local journeys in tight areas and under easy conditions. However, it’s crucial to remember that the benefits of mobility cannot be decoupled from the adverse and inequitable impacts of a car-dominated transport system. Furthermore, we know that the transport system substantially affects health. In car-dominated transport systems, those that use the transport system least (often poorer and indigenous populations) bear more burden than other groups . Taking action to reduce transport inequities is a crucial policy challenge for promoting health and reducing social disadvantage. One of the primary motives for choosing to hire a car transport company is because it saves them money. If they were to drive their vehicle long-distance themselves, they’d have to pay for gas and other expenses like food, snacks, hotels, or motels if the trip was long. By hiring a vehicle shipping company to take care of all the details, they have to wait for their car to arrive and then pick it up at the destination. Car transport companies are generally cheaper than you’d think, especially if you book during non-peak seasons. It’s best to be flexible with the dates you want your car picked up and delivered, as that will increase the number of available carriers. It also helps if you’re willing to go with open car transport instead of enclosed, which can cut costs by 50%-60%. A car is vital to many people, especially in sparsely populated areas with poor public transport services. It allows them to get around and access jobs or school. It’s also often a symbol of status and independence, and many people feel uncomfortable giving up their driver’s license because it limits their mobility. However, the health impacts of driving are considerable. Reducing road injury and lowering air pollution from transport would bring substantial health gains and reduce inequalities in healthy life expectancy. Car transport has long been criticized by those who saw it as nothing more than a polluting nuisance, frightening livestock and disturbing the tranquility of the countryside. The truth is, while cars do dispense noise, air pollution, and waste products (such as derelict oil and parts), they also provide valuable services such as access to education, employment, healthcare, and food. The results presented here demonstrate that the current transport system, like many other car-dominated systems worldwide, has substantial negative health impacts and contributes to health inequity. The findings highlight that specific policy choices in this area have important implications for the well-being of society and that creating a healthier transport system should be a priority. This study used an existing multi-state life table model to estimate the long-term health impacts (measured as changes in HALYs) and costs of eliminating road injury and transport-related air pollution while ensuring everyone achieves recommended physical activity levels through active travel. Using an age-standardized approach, the modeling found that addressing transport could result in significant health gains and savings to the health system. These benefits are expected to be more effective for people living in more deprived neighborhoods, reflecting the well-documented socioeconomic health disparities associated with exposure to transport-related hazards. Whether for a vacation, moving across town or country, or even when buying a new car, shipping your vehicle is one of the most reliable and effective ways to get where you’re going. You can trust a reputable nationwide auto transport company to take good care of your vehicle from point A to B in transit. Like many other car-dominated systems, the current transport system negatively impacts health. These impacts result from physical inactivity and road injury, contributing to health inequity. People who use the transport system most negligible (typically the poor, ethnic minority, and indigenous populations) bear a more significant share of the adverse health outcomes. Automobiles consume vast amounts of natural and manufactured resources, pollute the air, land, and water, and transform space. The manufacturing process alone produces immense pollution and waste, while the vehicles generate a staggering amount of smog and noise. The good news is that a healthier transport system would substantially benefit health and equity. Using a lifetable modeling approach, we can more accurately measure the long-term health effects and changes in health system costs of different transport options over an individual’s lifetime and determine which policies work best to improve transport equity.

If one wishes a profound historical-dialectical account of the fate of religion in our governmental schools – all in 200 pages – make Craig S. Engelhardt’s new book, “Education Reform: Confronting the Secular Ideal,” your primer. Engelhardt’s guiding principle is constant and plain: If society wants schools that nourish moral responsibility, it needs a shared premise concerning the source and ground of that responsibility; and this source must stand outside of, and sovereign to, the individual. Duty is not a personal preference; if it is real, that is because it has been instantiated by an authority external to the person. In contemporary theory, the source of such an authentic personal responsibility is often identified in ways comfortable to the secular mind. There is Kant; there is Rawls. But in the end, the categorical imperative and the notion of an original human bargain are vaporous. We go on inventing these foundations, but, in moments of moral crisis, such devices do not provide that essential, challenging, universal insight that tells each of us he ought to put justice ahead of his own project. Only a recognition of God’s authority and beneficence can, in the end, ground our grasp of moral responsibility. This message is repeated at every turn to support the author’s practical and political conviction – that the child cannot mature morally in a pedagogical framework that deliberately evades its own justification. Engelhardt shows in a convincing way that the religious premise was originally at the heart of the public school movement. Americans embraced the government school for a century precisely on the condition that it gave expression to a religious foundation of the good life. When modernism and the Supreme Court gave religion the quietus in public schools, the system serially invented substitutes including “character education,” “progressivism” and “values clarification” – each of which in its way assumed but never identified a grounding source. The result: a drifting and intellectual do-it-yourself moral atmosphere – an invitation to the student to invent his own good. And all too many have accepted. Engelhardt gives fair treatment to all players in the public school morality game. From the start he provides a generous hearing to the century-and-a-half of well-intending and intelligent minds who paradoxically frustrated their own mission of a religious democracy, first by shortchanging the unpromising Catholic immigrant, then – step by step – pulling the rug from under that transcendental dimension of education which alone could serve their wholesome purpose of training democrats. In this book, every historical player gets to give an accounting of the good he or she intended and the arguments thought to support it; of course, the rebuttals by Engelhardt are potent and even fun to read. My first and less basic criticism of the book is its slapdash attention to the legal paraphernalia that will be necessary to school choice, if it is to serve the families who now enjoy it the least. Engelhardt makes only a brief pass at describing his ideal of a voucher system. He wants to protect the identity and authority of private schools while serving all families fairly, but seems unaware of the many existing and very specific models that address this real question and strive for a balance. This, I suppose, is my opportunity to commend and recommend the expertise of my hosts in this blog, the American Center for School Choice and its partner Step Up For Students. In this business, one eventually has to become very specific about both creating and limiting opportunities for choice. My second criticism is substantive. The author’s tight focus is on the specific role of religion in training good Americans. It asserts this goal will be achieved by assuring subsidized choice to parents of privately owned and operated schools. Its profound hope for America simply assumes that parents are the right and proper authority to decide such matters for the child. I accept this; but to leave that assumption so little analyzed seems both an invitation to the enemies of choice and an opportunity missed. There is a literature justifying the superiority of parental authority that goes far beyond the “due process” squibs of Pierce v. Society of Sisters. That Supreme Court decision suffices to guarantee the survival of religious schools but – like this book – never addresses the substance of the claim that parental empowerment is the best hope for producing the ideal citizen – whether the parent chooses a religious or an atheist school. For the child to experience the love, responsibility and hope of the empowered parent is, some of us say, the wellspring of the child’s own aspiration for family and for something higher than self-satisfaction. But this conviction holds regardless of the school chosen. And that broader claim deserves notice. In fact, I think Engelhardt believes it but weakens the insight by the implication that most parents will save the day by choosing the religious school. Now, if parental sovereignty were to be recognized as a discrete source of effective moral learning at school, there could be a logical problem with Engelhardt’s religious argument for choice. At least in theory, the superior outcomes he attributes to faith-based education could be simply – or at least partly – a function of the exercise of parental choice quite apart from the chosen school’s message about the source of the good. And how could one argue empirically for religion as the true cause of civic devotion when religious schools today are in fact all parentally chosen? Is it not possible that those non-religious schools that also get chosen are equally effective at producing good citizens? The relatively few secular schools in the private sector seem to graduate their share of caring types. Meanwhile, even more confounding, in the public sector, the “civic gap” between pupils of inner-city and (chosen) suburban schools is all too evident. I strongly favor choice of faith-based schools, but our supporting policy arguments need to broaden. They must allow, and even emphasize, the real possibility that parental choice itself is the master principle. Parents with no interest in religion – and those schools that they would choose – merit recruitment for this crucial opportunity for the common good. But, enough; this book deserves a positive send off. It will be a strong influence for good.

Maria Grazia Chiuri’s SS18 haute couture collection as artistic director of Dior Couture appears to float somewhere between dream and reality, imagination and realization. The designer brings a fresh breath of imagination to the collection, conjuring an otherworldliness and use of trompe l’oeil and optical illusion with fabric, form and flow. Maria Grazia Chiuri was inspired by Surrealism in her predominantly black and white collection sprinkled with illusion and the occasional elements of surprise. In that vein, generous pleats on a white evening dress are etched in black like the pages of a book, while caging, is a recurring motif, is transformed into a black mesh fabric that hugs the body and underscores transparency as silvery fishnet mingles with the density of velvet. Above all, it’s the charisma of the artist Leonor Fini that defines this collection’s strict yet radical attitude. Leonor Fini, who left Italy for Paris in the ’30’s, held her first exhibition in Christian Dior’s gallery and befriended the designer from that moment onward. Whenever she made one of her phantasmagorical appearances, she often wore Dior. Leonor Fini was the incarnation of the then-revolutionary idea that one must always remain independent and reinvent oneself as a representation of all possible realities. She used clothing to define herself and set her own stage, in public as in private: at once influential, severe and elegant, she struck poses inspired by portraits of men from the Renaissance, by the constant interaction of art and life, and the blend of the natural and artificial. These marvels of haute couture came into being in a dimension suspended between dream and reality. The same applies to the daywear for which Christian Dior had such a knack, and notably to shapes reinterpreted using traditional men’s wear fabrics. Maria Grazia Chiuri draws on these as inspiration in a series of suits that recalibrates Dior’s curves to today’s tastes, paired with skirts of multiple contrasts. Ever faithful to the Surrealist tradition of deconstructed forms, accessories make their presence felt in a whimsical way: a fishnet stocking veils a sandal, while gloves clutch an ankle. It’s this way of seeing and being seen, with a point of view that draws on the unconscious and today’s world, that Maria Grazia Chiuri uses as a foil for embroideries and other embellishments. On a dress illuminated by a mirage of peacock feathers, precious and delicate ornaments become eyes that behold and express mystery — as well as the spiritual power of today’s women.

Avoid being cheated and protect your legal rights by registering with "unscrupulous agents" You can apply with confidence to a company that has the right to send workers abroad. Only regular companies that have been granted the right to legally contract outbound assignments by the state (ministerial authorities) are allowed to send various types of labourers (including trainees to Japan) abroad. They pay a reserve fund to the government authorities, are supervised by the authorities, have standardised business operations and are generally trustworthy. There are several channels to check the legitimacy of an expatriate company Check whether the company has a "business qualification certificate" (see) There are basically two types of legal expatriate business qualification certificates: A "Foreign Labour Cooperation Business Qualification Certificate" issued by the Ministry of Commerce B "Overseas Employment Business License" issued by the Ministry of Labour and Social Security For companies with certificates issued by the Ministry of Commerce, you can ask the local municipal foreign trade bureau or the Ministry of Commerce's website: http://www.chinca.org/点击 "Enterprise Directory"; for companies with certificates issued by the Ministry of Labour, you can ask the Ministry of Labour or the Ministry of Labour's website: http://www.chinca.org/点击. The Ministry of Labour's website is http://www.molss.gov.cn/gb/ggfw/jwjy.html. Therefore, when applying, checking whether the company has a business qualification/licence is the first step to protect your legal rights. During your time abroad, you may need guidance and assistance due to differences in country and customs and language communication difficulties. A regular expatriate company with an office in the country you are travelling to will be able to protect your legal rights and interests, and if there is a problem that needs to be coordinated, the expatriate staff will be able to go to the site in time to coordinate the situation. If you apply to an agency, please be cautious and avoid them. There are labour agencies in some places that only have a business licence issued by the local industry and commerce bureau, and do not have a legal expatriate business qualification issued by the state. They can only offer you an interview with a regular company that has the right to send you abroad and charge you a fee for it; they often introduce you to many companies irresponsibly and randomly; they have no access to foreign clients and cannot manage and guide you after you go abroad. If you apply with an agency, please be careful to prevent any monetary loss. It is advisable to register with a regular expatriate company. Never register with a private agency without a business licence, let alone pay a fee! Don't listen to their "connections" or "channels" and so on. There have been cases of people who have applied and paid fees at private agencies and ended up being duped! What are the requirements to work abroad? 1、Junior high school education or above, 18 years old or above, both male and female have the opportunity. 2、Have certain professional skills (e.g. mechanical processing, electronic assembly, etc.), able to work hard, obey management and have a collective concept of solidarity. 3、Must be law-abiding, be able to apply for a passport, have no criminal record and have no bad motives for going abroad. 4、The application is voluntary and must be approved by parents, relatives and other relatives. 5、Must be physically and mentally healthy, free from infectious diseases, mental illness, chronic diseases, etc. Those who are positive for hepatitis, AIDS or liver function tests cannot go abroad. 6、At the time of registration, the following documents (which must be true and valid) must be brought along in general a) Identity card b) Household register c) Graduation certificate d) 2-inch colour photograph e) Medical examination form f) Other necessary documents

Ripple case with SEC to ‘likely’ reach a conclusion in 2022, says CEO The long-standing feud between distributed ledger technology firm Ripple and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is nearing its end, according to Ripple’s CEO. Brad Garlinghouse highlighted the progress made in the case “despite a slow-moving judicial process.” Speaking to CNBC, he predicted that the Ripple case would likely conclude in 2022. “Clearly, we’re seeing good questions asked by the judge,” Garlinghouse said, adding his belief that “The judge realizes this is not just about Ripple; this will have broader implications.” Last year, the SEC charged Ripple with allegations of selling unlicensed securities in the form of XRP tokens since 2013. Ripple objected to the claims, saying that XRP should not be considered a security. The SEC claimed Ripple could have been aware that XRP could be a security from its legal advisors before moving forward with its token sale, and filed a motion to access the defendant’s legal advice. The court denied the motion, citing the attorney-client privilege. Related: Ripple outlines possible regulatory framework for crypto industry in US Over the year, Ripple executives shared insights on the case and its impact on business. Garlinghouse stated that Ripple’s expansion to the Asia-Pacific region was undamaged by the SEC lawsuit. The company is also looking at a possible initial public offering as soon as the case is settled. Support arrived from XRP token holders, who filed “friends of the court” briefs, which would allow them to join the case as defendants and support Ripple in its claims that the token does not violate securities laws. However, the judge ruled in October that individual XRP holders cannot act in Ripple’s ongoing lawsuit as defendants.

Have you ever passed through a town while on a trip and wondered what secrets it could hold? Or maybe you’d looked down a road and saw some bizarre thing that maybe only locals know about? That’s my favorite thing about Atlas Obscura and the Atlas Obscura app—it gives us all of those secrets at our fingertips, whether we’re in the car with the window rolled down or laptop-travelers looking for a new adventure. Our family loves to take road trips and visit national parks. Our most recent trip was in the Southwest, which started with a perfectly normal search: “What’s the most dangerous hike in the United States?” That led us to Angel’s Landing in Zion National Park. A few months later we found ourselves grasping onto a questionably mounted chain, dangling, just under 6,000 feet above the ground. At the very top, we had a full 360-degree view of bright red sandstone canyons that layered the valleys below as far as the eye could see. You’ll find many rock formations in this maze, both inspired by the real-life trip we took through the Southwest and by other wonders—natural and human-made—you’ll find in Atlas Obscura. In fact, many of the illustrations in the maze are inspired by real road trips we’ve taken across the country! From the bald eagles and seals we spotted driving down the Pacific Coast Highway, to the flowers of California and cactus varieties we saw in Arizona and Utah. We hope solvers will notice the waterfalls we discovered in Yosemite and the dolphin pods we watched in Florida. Did you know that George Washington had his own bathtub in West Virginia? How about the sock barn on the Tecumseh Trail where hikers can exchange a dirty sock for a free geode? Each illustration in this maze is carefully considered, and the path was designed to maximize discoveries of the Altas Wonders planted along the way. I hope you discover something new while solving the maze and get a little inspiration for your next Atlas road trip. Enjoy! All of these surprises are clickable in the downloadable PDF. You can download the puzzle in: I hope solvers find this maze an adventure of its own, and pause to explore all the little surprises! Just like a good road trip, getting there is a big part of the fun.

Although iOS comes with a native Apple Music app, developers are using MusicKit API to create new experiences for those who subscribe to Apple’s streaming service. If you subscribe to Apple Music and want to know how to better enjoy your music library with unique features, then I have picked some of the best iOS apps with Apple Music integration. Next was my first application Browse here on 9to5Mac. Instead of acting as an alternative player for Apple Music, the app brings features that will help you rediscover your current music library. Next uses algorithms to create smart playlists and also something called Magic DJs – which has a mix of songs from your favorite artists and genres. Although it’s always nice to discover new songs, sometimes we have great songs in our library that end up forgetting after some time. This is why one of my favorite features of Next is the Forgotten Songs playlist, which does exactly what the name suggests. It collects all your favorite songs from the past in one place. You will also find other smart playlists with the most played songs from specific artists and genres, not to mention the playlist with the songs that you have added to your library but never played. Playlists are created automatically based on your Apple Music data and are updated every time you open the app. Next is Available on software store $ 4.99 for a one-time purchase.

The app’s home screen can be customized with just the sections you need and the way you want them. For example, you can choose from recently played songs, most played songs, liked songs, top charts, new releases, radio stations and more to make your home experience unique within the app. Another interesting feature of the Marvis app is the side menu that can be accessed with gestures, which is great when you have to use the phone with just one hand.

Marvis Available on software store For $ 5.99 a one-time purchase – it provides additional integration with Last.fm that can be unlocked with a $ 3.99 in-app purchase.

In addition to your local music library sections like albums and playlists, you can also add For You, new songs, tracks, and other sections directly from Apple Music. With a feature called Magic Mix, you can create Genius-like playlists with filters for artists, albums, genres, composer, playback counts, and more. The app also comes with multiple widgets for the iOS home screen, which is great for customizing your iPhone while making it easy to access your favorite songs. This includes Now Playing, Magic Mix, and Music Collection widgets. It even has Cover Flow. Apple Music doesn’t provide a way to follow your favorite artists to keep track of their latest albums and songs, but MusicHarbor does just that. Instead of making suggestions or acting as an alternative player for Apple Music, MusicHarbor is designed for users who know exactly who they want to follow. Just open the app, search for artists, and start following them – MusicHarbor does the rest.

Long play It is also an interesting app that was introduced this year to allow users to rediscover their music library.

Once you open the app, it only displays artworks from your albums and playlists. You can rearrange the display of the main app by selecting only albums or playlists, or using one of the smart Sort By options. There are no extra options or anything to make you think where to start. All you have to do is click on an album or playlist and start listening to it. By long pressing the albums, Longplay offers options to play them shuffle or to use AirPlay. It is a fun app and Apple Music users should try it. Longplay is Available on software store $ 2.99 for a one-time purchase. With these applications, you can definitely enjoy a completely new experience with Apple Music.

The study of urban areas is a key area of research across much of the school and forms a significant component of our atmospheric research. We are home to the Birmingham Urban Observatory, a unique network of over 100 air temperature sensors and 25 weather stations across the city. The observatory is the centrepiece of urban climatological research in the school and is used to quantify the impact of the urban heat island effect in Birmingham and beyond, as well as providing a testbed for advancing other innovative low-cost sensing, numerical modelling and data science approaches. Applied weather forecasting and climate prediction for industry is a major strength of the group. A portfolio of projects exist between the group and colleagues in civil engineering which look at the impact of weather and climate on infrastructure, with the short term aim of improving hazard to decision making whilst also making our hard infrastructure more resilient to the future effects of climate change. Our group continues to influence UK policy in this area as key authors for the UK Climate Change Risk Assessment. Other fundamental and applied research investigates meteorological and climatological extreme events from extreme precipitation to hazardous extra-tropical cyclones affecting the UK. We have a vast portfolio of ongoing work including e.g., the analysis of storm tracks and associated impacts for the insurance industry, the impact of heat waves in urban areas for use by city planners and the better understanding of large-scale circulations governing climate phenomena to improve monsoon forecasting. Modelling Past and future climate change Collaborative research in this area with colleagues across the school includes numerical modelling of past global climates, analysis of proxy data, statistical downscaling (in order to derive regional climate change from large-scale changes), as well as regional climate modelling. Combining these methods leads to innovative, statistically rigorous consistency tests between climate simulations and proxy data, which are needed for reducing uncertainties in climate reconstructions as well as for testing climate models that are used for predicting future climate change. Geoengineering solutions, hydroclimatology and teleconnections across Europe and North America are also targets for investigation. Better understanding environmental complexity and projecting how the terrestrial biosphere will respond to a changing environment is the focus of this group. Particular foci are the response of forests to rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations, the effect of climate change on forest mortality, and future changes in crop yields. A variety of methods are employed, from large experimental manipulation of real forests, to statistical analysis of large observational datasets, and global scale modelling of the terrestrial biosphere. The work of this group is closely linked to the Birmingham Institute of Forest Research. Climate and air pollution interactions In addition to GHGs, many short-lived components in the atmosphere also contribute significantly to the Earth system energy imbalance, and hence play a critical role in climate change. These short-lived climate forcers are also air pollutants, such as aerosols and surface ozone, with a major source from human activities. We collaborate nationally and internationally with renowned institutes to advance our understanding of the interactions between climate change and air pollution to advice “win-win” sustanable policymaking, using a combination of numerical modelling, satellite and in-situ observations and data-science approaches

Throughout the years, several changes have been made to the Bitcoin Core code, allowing for new features, improved security, and ultimately, bigger network blocks. But it seems as if the developers want to revamp their code changes in the future, to engage more people in the future and development of Bitcoin. Bitcoin Core Developers Want More Input The way things work right now for Bitcoin Core is by letting community members propose ideas through a public mailing list. They will then have to wait to see whether or not enough people are in favour of this proposal, and if so, a BIP is created and submitted to GitHub. Once this step has been completed, the general Bitcoin community can post their comments and concerns regarding this topic. Do keep in mind this is still a far cry from seeing this idea implemented in the Bitcoin Core client, though, as there is still a review process that needs to take place. There is always a significant difference between wanting something to work, and making it behave as expected in a software environment. Community members have taken somewhat of a liking to this approach, especially since every step is made public. However, the Bitcoin Core developers still have the final say in which changes are made in the end. But at the same time, a new proposal has been created to let community members weigh in more on upcoming features or changes to the Bitcoin client software. If these plans come to fruition, there will be a new system which lets anyone in the world weigh in on the future of Bitcoin Core development, without slowing down the development process itself. Doing so will require a better differentiation between different proposal types, which will [hopefully] invite more users to comment on what they hope to see in the future. Creating a technology standard in the field of Bitcoin will be quite a challenge, though, despite there being the advantage of preventing enterprises from taking over the future of Bitcoin Core development. In the end, we all want to make Bitcoin better than it has ever been before while still keeping the same level of transparency in place. While there is still a lot of work to be done before a consensus system within all of Bitcoin’s key groups is established, the concept holds a lot of merit for the future.

The Milwaukee bullpen made it interesting again. Francisco Rodriquez picked up his 293rd career save after walking in a run with the bases loaded, but he got Lance Berkman to fly out to left ending with a 4-3 loss for the Cardinals. St. Louis drew ten walks, but couldn’t take advantage of the free passes. Adam Wainwright started and was charged with four runs in the first inning. Two of those runs came in on errors from Rafael Furcal and Lance Berkman on one play. Wainwright settled down and struck out nine. Lee’s Summit native Trevor Rosenthal pitched the eighth and walked two and struck out two, topping out at 100 mph on the radar gun.

The Wagner Boy’s annual camping trip has been held for several years on the Black River on the border Fort Apache and San Carlos Indian Reservations. This area is very rocky, high desert. The main camping area had a lot of shade supplied by cedars, mesquite and some cottonwood trees and was well maintained but had no facilities. The road to the camping area is fairly rough but can be negotiated with passenger cars to a point just before the last camping area. A four wheel drive vehicle was required to get over the last embankment unless you didn’t mind taking a higher speed run at it a time or two. This camping spot has a unique location just above the confluence of the Black and White Rivers which then becomes the Salt River that in turn, runs through the Salt River Canyon. Both of these rivers originate high in the White Mountains. Coming from State Route 79, you pick up the turnoff half way between Cedar Creek and Canyon Day. Jeff, Phil, Robert, Jim, Nichole, and Jason had arrived the night before we did. They had timed their arrival to be at one minute after midnight so they would not be violating their camping permit. I had to work all day Thursday, so Jeremy headed down Thursday night. We had special instructions from Phil on exactly where to find there camp. I mistranslated the part about coming to a big tree by the road and turned off the main road a little too soon. We found an area a little more primitive than their site but we were the only ones there. Jeremy and I pulled in about 10:00 PM. We towed the canoe trailer with Carol’s Explorer. That last embankment was too difficult to negotiate with the trailer, so our spot was the best spot for us. We pulled up to the edge of the river on a sandy beach. On one side we had a small hill that was solid rock. On the other side we had a stretch of sand, some large shade trees and a rock face of a small mountain. This beach area we were in would best be described as a wash. I’m glade we had a clear weather report. Most of our camping and fishing gear was stored on the trailer along with two mountain bikes. Our clothes, ice chest and sleeping bags were inside the Explorer. I moved the ice chest to the back of the trailer and checked out the area with the beam of the flashlight. I realized what a great spot this was and we had it all to ourselves. Sleeping in the back of the Explorer was very comfortable. My Dad, Brother Rick and I used to camp this way many times. It was less hassle than a tent but a little more compact. I climbed back into the car. Jeremy was all ready in his bag and I was soon in mine. Just as I was dozing off, I felt a little movement in the car. It was more than Jeremy shifting his weight. Then I heard something hit the ground with a thud. I grabbed my flashlight and went out to investigate. At the back of the trailer, I found the ice chest tipped over and laying on its end with the lid ajar and some of its contents and ice lying in the sand. I scooped everything up, sandy ice cubes and all, and put it back on the trailer. I thought I may have left the ice chest hanging too far off of the back of the trailer and the melting ice shifted and unbalancing the load causing the chest to fall off. I didn’t want to lose any ice here in the wilderness and a little sand in the food is kind of a camping tradition, especially if it is windy when you’re cooking. So I got back into the car crawled back in the sack. As the sun was coming up over the big shade trees, which indicated east, Jeremy was still sleeping. So I quietly got up, dressed and decided to do a little fishing. This water is a little warmer here than its White Mountain tributaries so we found ourselves fishing for small mouth bass instead of trout. I fished for about two hours when I spotted Jeremy stirring around. He loves to sleep in after keeping late hours the night before. I hadn’t set up camp yet and had no breakfast to off er. I ask him what he was hungry for and he said he just wanted something cold to drink. I asked him if he could go for a Dr. Pepper. He said OK so I went to the ice chest, stuck my hand in and pulled out a Dr. Pepper. “Jeremy, Look at this! I shouted. “You weren’t the only one with a thirst for something cold!” The Dr. Pepper can was empty and there were two ó” diameter bear teeth holes on the sides near the top. There were also holes in the lid of the plastic ice chest, were the bear grabbed it with its teeth to pull it off the trailer. We missed the opportunity to f i Im a great Dr. Pepper commercial. A day late and a dollar short. After a quick day time survey of the area, we decided to set up camp near a large shade tree 25 yards away. We unloaded the canoe and moved our camping rig up the wash to higher, level ground. It was a perfect spot and a great shelter from the afternoon sun. As we were setting up the campsite, a couple of guys in a relatively new van stopped by and ask if we would mind them camping down by the river. We told them that would be OK. It was nice for them to ask. They actually set up right where we were the night before. After setting up the camp and having a mid morning snack, we started fishing our way down the river and hopefully find the other Wagner Boys camp. We found the major camp ground a half a block away from us. Had no problem finding their campsite where Jim and Nicole just finished cleaning up the breakfast dishes. The other guys were off hiking somewhere. A long the river adjacent to the camp ground, there was a long pool of water about thirty foot wide and one hundred feet long. It also had a sandy beach like bank on the camp ground side and a twenty foot shear, solid rock bank on the other side. This would be a great place for the canoe, so Jeremy and I went back up to get it. We could only paddle it short distances at a time and then walked it down through the rapids when the water got to shallow. Once we got it down to the long pool, paddling was great. After a short while, we were getting a little hungry so we tied up the canoe and hiked up to our camp. We passed the men in the van and noticed that they had pulled one of the seats out of the van and set it right on the river bank. It looked like they were already for some night fishing for catfish. The next morning, I got up early for some morning fishing before breakfast. I walked down past the van seat and noticed that the night fisherman left the catfish bait, fishing tackle box and various snack foods out on the seat. They were still sleeping and did not know that they had some unexpected company during the night. The bear had helped itself to the snacks, ate the bait, opened the tackle box and threw its contents around, and if that wasn’t bad enough, it ate big chucks out of the van seat and took a big BM right in the middle of it. A hunter or hiker would call that “sign”, I call it poop unless it was my seat, then I would call it xxxx!! I didn’t have the opportunity to see these guys faces when they got up, but I’m sure it was a site to behold. The rest of the day, Jeremy and I spent fishing and swimming. We caught several small mouth bass on parts of crayfish that we harvested from waters edge. For Dinner that night, Jeremy and I had some Sloppy Joes that Carol prepared for us. With potato chips and pop, we were feasting like Kings. She also sent a freezer bag full of fresh peaches we picked from Snepps Farm in Queen Creek. They were prepared for use as pie filling. We had two graham cracker pie shells and a container of cool whip. We made only one pie for know and the second one we were going to share with the other camp after we cleaned up our camp kitchen. That would take about fifteen minutes because we put a KISS on our cooking. That means Keep It Simple Silly. Well actually it is supposed to be Stupid, but I resemble that statement. I prepared the pie, cool whip and all, and delivered it on my mountain bike along with Styrofoam bowls and spoons. That was a sight worth seeing all by itself because I had to not only ride a good distance up the hill in rough terrain with a lot of loose gravel, but had to control the downward descent into their camp. Almost lost it twice, but the pie was delivered successfully and appreciated by all. The next morning we were up bright and early. When the sun goes down there isn’t much to do, so you hit -the sack early. Jeremy and I fished, hiked and generally kicked around all day. This is what a short vacation is supposed to be like. A lot of rest and recuperation or as the military calls it R&R. I decided to fish my way down to the long pool where we left the canoe . As I hit the last rapid, I saw the canoe in the middle of the pool. It was still in the shade cast by the shear cliff and mountain beyond. There was a fishing pole propped up over the edge but the line wasn’t in the water. Phil was lying in the bottom of the canoe with his arm stretched over the edge and dangling in the water while in a deep state of relaxation, just drifting around. The morning breezes were picking up a little and pushed him around just enough to change the scenery but not location. I called out to see if he had a luck fishing there. He said he didn’t want to put his line in the water so he wouldn’t have to be bothered by a fish. He then invited us to join the other camp for steak fry. Phil had brought up the left over steaks from Roberts graduation party. I accepted the invitation. Jeremy and I had planned to make home made onion rings to share. This would be the perfect opportunity. So that afternoon about 4:30 we started peeling and slicing the large, sweet Vidalia onions, mixing up the special batter and then prepared the large cast iron fry pan for the assembly line frying process. Jeremy would dip the ring in the batter and place them in the pan and I would watch them carefully and turn them at just the right time. We had to taste test a few to make sure we were doing it just right. With ketchup, it was almost a meal in it self. After we finished frying, we had a heaping plate of onion rings. We covered them and grabbed the ketchup and delivered them directly to their camp. This time we took the flatter route by the river and left the bikes behind. We were greeted by some hungry campers. They all had just returned from a long hike down the canyon to fish the lower end of the river. That is where all the big fish are. They catch one very large catfish but release it. They said it was too big to carry out. The onion rings were used as an appetizer and were gone in a short period of time. Jim, their chief camp chef made sure that no onion rings would be wasted. After the steak dinner, we sat around a shared fishing and bear stories. The bears evidently were equal opportunity menaces. They made sure they gave all the campers sometime to write home about. Phil told us how he would have to lay a frying pan outside of his tent within a hands reach. He took a hammer to bed with him so that when he heard the bears coming near his camp, he would reach out and hit the pan with the hammer to chase the bears away. He did that all night long. In bear lingo, does that clanging mean “go away” or “time for dinnerf” No wonder he was relaxing in the canoe all afternoon. Sunday morning we had enough time to do a little fishing, swimming and breaking down our campsite. It was a great mini vacation. Just as we were finishing, the boys came by. They hadn’t had lunch and were out of food, so we shared the last of our leftover Sloppy J oes. They weren’t going to be any better than they were right then. They liked our campsite. I could tell by there comments that we would have to beat them to this spot next year. You can’t put dibs on camping spots unless you’re sitting in it. One year later— There we were, heading to the Black River for the annual Wagner Campout. This time Chad was joining us. We decided to spend the first night at the cabin in Pinetop and then on the way to Black River pick up our permits. The spending the night at the cabin was the best part of the plan. Finding permits was another story. We left the cabin early after a quick breakfast. We stopped in several sporting good stores in Pinetop and Show Low. No permits there. So we headed west on SR 60 thinking we could find a store on the Indian Reservation. Cibecue would be our next stop. Leaving Show Low we were back into the thick ponderosas forest. Suddenly we hear a siren and thinking I should pull over and let the emergency vehicle by, I noticed it was a Highway Patrol Motorcycle. Oh no! I was the emergency. A speeding driver. As the officer came up to the window I already had my drivers license, auto registration and insurance certificate out for his inspection. He asked where I was headed and I told him fishing. He said I was going 57 mph in a 45 MPH zone. I told him thought I was out of the town past that speed limit. He pointed down the road 100 yards to the increased speed limit sign. He told me I almost made it but he was going to just give me a warning. After he wrote the ticket and presented it to me, I told him “Thanks for nothing”. He chuckled and told me to drive safe. I look over at Chad and Jere my. They had a look of astonishment and disbelief that I would say that. So off we go, 45 MPH for another 100 yards then off we go. We toured the town of Cibecue for about 30 minutes. Couldn’t find any stores open but we always wanted to see what was back there. There is a way to get to the lower end of Canyon Creek from there. We fish the upper end by the Mogollon Rim. Our next chance to find permits would be in the bottom of the Salt River Canyon and the convenience store run by the San Carlos Tribe. If not there, then we would have to go to Globe where we knew they had them. At the store I ask the clerk if they had fishing permits for the Black River. She said not they did not sell them there. So that was discouraging. We walked outside. Chad was studying a big, engraved wood map of the Salt River Canyon and the San Carol Indian reservation. He pointed out the Black River Crossing; our destination is on their map. I went back into store and told the clerk that the Black River was on there map. She said “Oh, You want a San Carlos Permit! Yes, I do have them.” Boy, if it wasn’t for Chad studying that map we would be have lunch in Globe. Buy the time we got to the Black River is was 1:00 PM. Worse yet, someone was parked by out favorite tree. Fortunately, they looked like they were just swimming and did not have any camping equipment set up. In a few hours they moved on and we moved in and set up camp. This time we had a tent as there were three of us. Fishing was good, R&R was happening and the food was great! What more could you ask for.

Aide, Hernández-Serna, Campos-Cerqueira, Acevedo-Charry, Deichmann |amphibians, ARBIMON, Biodiversity monitoring, birds, community ecology, insects, passive acoustic monitoring, rapid assessments, Soundscape, species richness Acoustic ecology, or ecoacoustics, is a growing field that uses sound as a tool to evaluate animal communities. In this manuscript, we evaluate recordings from eight tropical forest sites that vary in species richness, from a relatively low diversity Caribbean forest to a megadiverse Amazonian forest, with the goal of understanding the relationship between acoustic space use (ASU) and species diversity across different taxonomic groups. For each site, we determined the acoustic morphospecies richness and composition of the biophony, and we used a global biodiversity dataset to estimate the regional richness of birds. Here, we demonstrate how detailed information on activity patterns of the acoustic community (<22 kHz) can easily be visualized and ASU determined by aggregating recordings collected over relatively short periods (4–13 days). We show a strong positive relationship between ASU and regional and acoustic morphospecies richness. Premontane forest sites had the highest ASU and the highest species richness, while dry forest and montane sites had lower ASU and lower species richness. Furthermore, we show that insect richness was the best predictor of variation in total ASU, and that insect richness was proportionally greater at high-diversity sites. In addition, insects used a broad range of frequencies, including high frequencies (>8000 Hz), which contributed to greater ASU. This novel approach for analyzing the presence and acoustic activity of multiple taxonomic groups contributes to our understanding of ecological community dynamics and provides a useful tool for monitoring species in the context of restoration ecology, climate change and conservation biology.

Today is Animal Day, a good reason for us to reflect on the sometimes difficult relationship between animals and drones. We all remember the video of the angry chimpanzee knocking a drone out of the sky, and not long ago a drone pilot was taken to court for disturbing a herd of cattle with a drone. Fauna and unmanned aviation seem like a difficult combination. Fortunately, there are also many positive things to report about animals and drones. If you want to see more about drones, visit ‘Let’s Fly Wisey’ for more details. Like many other technological developments, drones can have a significant impact on the wellbeing of animals. For example, many birds see a drone as an annoying intruder in their habitat and will do whatever it takes to chase it away. YouTube is teeming with videos showing how gulls, geese, and other birds attack drones. The Dutch police go one step further and even train sea eagles in defusing unwanted drones. In some cases, animals that live on the ground also dislike drones. Cows and deer, for example, can panic if a drone flies low overhead, and in some cases even flee. A year ago, a forest ranger from Staatsbosbeheer issued a ticket to a drone pilot in such a case in the Oostvaardersplassen. However, he allowed the case to be heard and the judge did not find it proven that there was a deliberate disturbance of the peace. Most people understand that you should not fly a drone above a bird nesting area during the breeding season. However, the question is whether drones should by definition be banned from nature reserves because in many cases there is nothing wrong and no animals are disturbed. Staatsbosbeheer also uses drones themselves. The organization is therefore not firmly against drones in nature reserves but would like to see more clarity. Not only animals living in the wild, but also pets can sometimes react unpredictably to drones. It won’t be the first time a curious dog jumps up on a drone and gets injured on its muzzle. As a drone pilot, it is therefore always wise to be extra alert to pets in the immediate vicinity during take-off and landing. Tracking down fawns and meadow birds Fortunately, there are also countless positive developments when it comes to animals and drones. In the Netherlands, for example, drones with infrared cameras have been successfully used to detect fawns in lawns that are about to be mowed. The same technique is now being used to trace the nests of endangered meadow birds, and thereby bring the eggs and chicks to safety in time in case of danger. Then there is the example of the anti-syrup drone, also developed from Dutch soil. A team of young researchers wanted to use drones to detect rhino poachers from the air, among other things. In the meantime, a lot of work is being done on software that automatically triggers an alarm based on advanced image recognition when there are suspicious situations. The same software can also be used by farmers to count cows. In addition, drones are now being used in countless places around the world to conduct research into animals in their living environment, both on land and at sea. For example, drones are used to count sharks and catch whale snot, and tomorrow you will read an article on Dronewatch about scientists using drones to track sea turtles. Drones are also useful for animal protection at sea: the international organization Sea Shepherd uses drones to chase illegal fishermen away. Drones have the advantage that they can easily reach places that are difficult to reach by people, and can be equipped with all kinds of sensors to collect data. If used responsibly, drones can therefore mean a lot to animals. And maybe animals just need to get used to the humming devices in the air, just as they once had to get used to racing traffic and flying planes.

For most of my life, the Bible was more of a tool for guilt rather than purity. Don’t get me wrong, since I was a kid I loved, and still love, reading it, but there were many times where I would grow very frustrated by reading about the Holy calling God has placed on us and become extremely frustrated with my inability to attain it. My Christianity evolved into a basic belief that I was an unholy, perverted, evil, piece of garbage and God had some how found it in His heart to save me from the eternal Hell I so greatly deserved. Anytime I ever “sinned” in any form, it was just another reminder of how pathetic I was. The fact is, my early form of Christianity wasn’t exactly great for me in the self-esteem department. Eventually I began to wonder how God came up with what was and what wasn’t sin? Did He just make it up as He went? Did He roll dice? Did He determine it based on how fun something was? What was it? That’s when I finally started looking at the different activities we call “sin” and began asking, “Why is that a sin?” My life changing revelation came when I finally understood that “sin” was not so much about defying God as it was about my quality of life. When we make sin ALL about defying God, then it creates a huge gap in our relationship with Him. We cower as we know we have “defied” Him or broken His heart, or whatever. It’s like a bunch of mom guilt thrown at us. But what if sin is more that that? After all, He HAS left us free to do it. It’s not like invisible force fields pop up and keep us from doing things. Today I see “sin” not as a decree from God but a warning from Him. Like a sign that says, “Danger High Voltage Do Not Touch.” The reason I would not touch a fence in that circumstance has nothing to do with obeying the sign, it has to do with not getting fried to death. To disobey the sign would not be a personal attack on the sign maker, it would be an act of sheer stupidity on my part. The sign maker is not going to suffer nearly as much as I will for defying his “decree.” Kinda like when dad would say, “This is gonna hurt me a lot more than it hurts you” as he grabbed his belt to swat my rear for doing something stupid as a kid. Now I can look back and say, “Nope…..I’m still pretty sure it hurt me more.” (Which is probably why my dad never actually said that to me) I think it is much easier to use the Bible to help us pursue purity and holiness when we view it from the perspective of a warning. Purity and Holiness are for our benefit. There is a good chance if you are reading this blog you have already touched the electric fence of pornography and have been zapped by it. You probably already know the pain it can lead to in threatening your marriages, in costing jobs, in cheapening sex and whatever else you’ve had happen. You probably know so well the completely unfulfilling feeling that follows each incident. These things are not God’s punishment, they are sin’s punishment. That is why God tells us not to do this stuff. Sin is its own punishment, its own suffering, its own misery, and its own Hell. I no longer fear the wrath of God, I fear the wrath of sin! A wrath from which God is desperately trying to save us. When we read the Bible from this perspective, a perspective that it truly is leading us to a better and more fulfilling life, then we see purity is not a harder life to live……but an easier one.

Blogging is a vital tool for attracting the right callers to your website. It has helped me to get my name out there and to build authority with specific audiences. Blogging is also a great way to apply SEO strategies while improving your content marketing strategy. What is Guest Blogging? Guest blogging is a big deal. It’s a way to leverage the power of your brand and reach out to new audiences while also making new friends. Guest blogging has been around for more than 20 years, but in recent years, it’s become more popular than ever. In fact, guest blogs are so important that they are now considered a marketing strategy in their own right. Why Is Guest Blogging Important For Your Business? Guest blogging is the process of posting a blog article on another website and publishing it under your own name. It allows you to share your thoughts and expertise with other people in your industry while building up your own personal brand. Also, to improve your business, you need to work on guest blogging. And are very important to growing online business. The benefits of guest blogging are many: 1. Establish yourself as an authority within your market 2. figure connections with other study leaders in your field 3. Expose your brand to an entirely new audience How Do I Get Started With Guest Blogging? Before you get started with guest blogging, make sure you’re clear about what you’re looking to get out of the guest blogging experience. Look for assiduity blogs by non-competitor companies where you can deliver real sapience to compendiums. Once you have found an industry blog that interests you, read its content thoroughly before sending them a pitch. If there are specific questions the editor has asked about a particular topic or audience, state them in your pitch so that they know exactly what information they will get if they agree to publish your post. Create a pitch that is easy for editors to digest, but also provides them with enough information about your post so that they know exactly what they will be getting if they agree to publish it. How Does Guest Blogging Impact SEO? Guest blogging is a great way to build your domain authority, but it’s also important to consider the risks. The long answer: There are several ways that guest blogging can impact your SEO efforts. Here are some of the potential benefits and drawbacks: Guest bloggers can earn links from other sites — which should boost your domain authority. You can create high-quality content that will help raise your site’s visibility on search engines. Guest bloggers can get picked up by other websites and potentially reach new audiences as well. Guest bloggers will often improve their own SEO with each post they write because it’s associated with their name brand. It’s important that the guest blogger writes about their blog topic and industry for another human audience, not for the search engines. This will help improve your site’s readership overall, especially if you write from a genuinely helpful perspective. It’s also great for building keyword research, which we’ll get into in the next section.

In the 2004 drama series “Dr. House M.D.”, Dr.Amber Volakis was one of the applicants for the fellowship positions that opened up in Season 4. She was first called by her assigned number, 24, and then later by her first name, she was usually referred to by Gregory House as “Cutthroat Bitch” due to her manipulative nature. She is portrayed by actress Anne Dudek. Despite her failure to obtain a fellowship position, Amber remained a potent force in the series well after her dismissal and even after her death at the end of Season 4. I would like to present her in the form of Lego Mosaic art. I hope you like my production! Remarks： This Lego Mosaic Pictures can be built by the Lego official set, Lego Art: Elvis Presley “The King” (Lego 31204).

What are the benefits of video analytics for Public Safety Organizations? Author: Rachel Engel According to the National League of Cities' State of the Cities report, public safety is among the top priorities for U.S. mayors. To help make their cities safer, many municipal planners are implementing smart city technologies to gain insight into their communities to extract data for better decision-making. Data is the backbone of modern public safety, and technology advancements, like the use of video analytics for public safety, can give leaders better access to near real-time situational awareness. What are video analytics? Video analytics, also called video content analysis, are applications that use advanced algorithms and machine learning to monitor, analyze and manage large volumes of video data to detect and determine temporal and spatial events. The program scans images for specific parameters based on the location and type of information requested, giving users the ability to make better-informed decisions. In the context of video analytics for public safety, an application can perform different automated responses based on the activity it detects, such as alerting law enforcement or private security when suspicious activity is detected. This can also include automatic license plate recognition. Initially, the footage will be from publicly managed cameras. However, some law enforcement agencies, such as those in Paterson, New Jersey, have begun connecting private video feeds so officers can view live feeds of connected cameras. Use cases of video analytics for public safety Video analytics offer a number of ways law enforcement and public safety officials can more effectively target resources and respond to incidents. Software designed to analyze video feeds can be added to most modern security systems, which can help detect anomalies in the collected data and help automatically alert law enforcement. For example, a camera in a parking lot programmed to identify cars will send an alert if it captures data that is determined to be an anomaly, for instance a human figure. Meaning the system can help possibly identify an in-progress burglary. An analyst can then quickly assess the alert and the footage to determine if police should be dispatched. Now, imagine the benefit to public safety officials of this system throughout your city and how quickly video analytics could improve near real-time situational awareness, Live video feeds of an ongoing incident can be shared with first responders, incident commanders and others to assist with the response. Over time, video analytics can help collect and derive actionable insights for data-driven safety, security and operational decision-making. This can include spotting patterns of criminal activity or helping to quickly determine where to strategically place assets, such as staging police vehicles near areas where crime is statistically likely to occur. Video analytics can also accelerate the evidence-gathering process by reducing the time and resources needed to sift through large amounts of potential video evidence. One of the most effective uses of video analytics for public safety is to monitor and manage large crowds at events or venues in the community. Through wireless sensors, crowd analytics can privately and anonymously—but accurately—measure everything from wait times to the physical spacing of patrons. This could lead planners to stagger crowd entry or open another access point for attendees to enter or zero in on an unusual gathering of people that could indicate a fight has broken out. Benefits of Intelligent Video Verizon's Intelligent Video system provides advanced video analytics, including archived video synopsis, near real-time video analysis and dashboard visualization metrics. Using our video analytics for public safety has a number of benefits: - Force multiplier. Whether it's keeping track of high-risk infrastructure in remote environments, reducing time spent gathering evidence or simply providing enhanced near real-time situational awareness of your city, video analytics can help you do more with fewer monitoring, intelligence and investigative resources. - Faster access to data. Video analytics can help analyze trends in minutes, such as pedestrian counts and vehicle traffic, rather than waiting for the results of a months-long study. - Straightforward management. Intelligent Video is a pay-as-you-go, software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution and includes licensing, support, cloud and wireless network access. Another benefit of a SaaS service is rapid time to deployment. With fully featured cloud implementation and managed services, your security team can stay focused on what's most important. - Scalability and interoperability. A video analytics solution can be adapted to your specific needs with support for more than 100,000 cameras and the ability to integrate with other security solutions. - Easy to use. Verizon's Intelligent Video solution is designed to be easy to use, allowing public safety officials to be operational with minimal training.

|Do you know where your variables are? Thanks for the suggestion. I'm going to go through all the mod_perl and mod_perl 2 docs first though so I'm sure I know what it is I don't know before bothering them. The stacked handlers info here is pretty good at giving me background on mod_perl's initial implementation of this, so I'm hoping I can soak up enough info to resolve this myself. Such a steep learning curve though - I haven't touched mod_perl in almost a decade :D

142.6…Early Bird Special I felt like a granny last night. I ate dinner at 4:30PM. In my defense I had to….I had to return my rental car and go straight to the school’s open house. I would not have eaten dinner until almost 9PM otherwise. I would have eaten my hand off. Before I left I reheated the last of the Spinach Fettuccine with Yogurt Cream Sauce. Not surprisingly, by the time I got home I was hungry again so I made a quick peanut butter sandwich. I kept the peanut butter theme going at breakfast. I ate an English muffin with Teddie peanut butter and a side of cantaloupe. I took the kids to school and went to a Room Parent meeting. I feel like I’ve lived at the school for the past few days! I went to Zumba class and it was awesome. The class was super packed and the energy was high….I loved it! Lunch was a giant salad….tuna salad on top of mixed greens, baby spinach, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, red bell pepper, shredded carrots all drizzled with balsamic vinaigrette. After picking up both kids, I had some watermelon for a snack. I’m going to start making dinner and I’m excited about a new recipe I’m going to try….here’s to hoping it turns out so I can share it with you! What is your normal dinner time? We usually eat around 6PM. We are early birds over here.

Last season was a tale of two halves for Will Graber and Dartmouth. The Big Green started 2-8-1, then an upset win at Denver in mid-December propelled them to a strong second semester. Dartmouth went 14-9-1 over its last 24 games, almost getting to the ECAC Hockey semifinals, but fell just short at Harvard. Graber’s year mirrored that of his team. He had just a goal and three assists through the first 11 games, but the tables turned with a goal in that 5-4 win over the Pioneers. He potted eight goals and added 14 assists over the last 24 games. Now, a year older and more experienced, the junior forward hopes to build on his success to push Dartmouth to the ECAC Hockey Championships in Lake Placid, N.Y., for the first time since 2016.

I open my eyes, and I realize I fell asleep. You’re looking at me, and start laughing. I feel safe, I feel home. My heart is yours. Thanks for teaching me its true meaning. This is for you, More. With love and gratitude, S. Intimità, Stefano Contiero's latest collection, explores the themes of intimacy and discovery. The work emphasizes uncovering the deeper aspects of our relationships and suggesting that genuine, meaningful connection can only be fully experienced when the veil of surface appearances is lifted. Building a relationship is often considered a process of construction, where two individuals come together to form a bond. However, the process can also be seen as deconstruction, where both partners must tear down the walls they have built around themselves, exposing their vulnerabilities and allowing themselves to be known. Contiero’s works feature open fields of color that melt together to create an effect reminiscent of marbling. Vibrant hues are subtly aged with a patina, enhancing each piece's visual impact and giving it a sense of depth and movement. Through Contiero's striking compositions, he invites us to consider the role physical and emotional obstacles play in shaping our experiences of intimacy. Only through time and deep exploration can these barriers be removed. - RESERVED WORKS: The first 2 pieces will be minted in advance and not available for sale during the auction: 1 for the artist and 1 for Tonic. - PRINT OPTIONS: If you buy at mint, you are entitled to an optional free 12 × 16 inch print with the ability to upgrade to a larger size or add a frame for a fee.

Seb Evans discusses the confusing reasons why a sugar tax may be introduced, and clarifies the real reason we should be taxing sugary foods. A sugar tax has made its way into the media again with the FGDP(UK) backing the introduction of it. With the pressure mounting and more people and companies throwing their weight behind the calls for a sugar tax, I wonder how long it will be before the Government caves and introduces some form of tax for sugary drinks and foods. Some may say that point has already come after David Cameron hinted at a possible U-turn recently after saying: ‘We shouldn’t be in the business of ruling things out’ when discussing the possibility of a sugar tax. However, after reading Phil McCafferty’s article in the February issue of Dentistry Scotland magazine, I can’t help but agree with him in thinking the Government is considering a sugar tax for all the wrong reasons. Dr Alison Tedstone, chief nutritionist at Public Health England (PHE), recently told the Government a sugar tax could help solve Britain’s obesity crisis. If this ends up being the reason the Government introduces the tax then it is setting itself up for failure. Whilst sugar may contribute to obesity, it is not the only or biggest contributor. Fried chicken, greasy burgers and a lack of exercise all have a larger role to play in the factors contributing to obesity. And introducing a tax on sugary drinks isn’t going to stop all those people going through the drive through, on their lunches or at the weekends, and ordering an extra large burger meal. A tax on sugar should be introduced, but only if it’s aim is to reduce the burden of children’s teeth extractions on the NHS. Sugar feeds the bacteria that helps to form caries and this is the main reason we should be reducing people’s sugar intake. The money raised from the sugar tax should then be reinvested in preventive strategies to help improve the nation’s oral health. Any other reason for a sugar tax does not make sense and will not have the desired outcome, thereby meaning the sugar tax will be seen as a failure. Conveniently timed, FMC is launching a new magazine this month called Oral Health, which will cover all oral health topics and is for dentists and the dental team alike. Oral Health magazine will be launching with the campaign People of Prevention, or #POP, to recognise those people making great efforts to increase prevention in dentistry. So get behind the #POP campaign, raise awareness of the detrimental effect sugar can have on our teeth, and not necessarily on our waistlines.

Electric vehicles are the future of transportation, and in order to make the switch to electric vehicles seamless, we need more EV chargers to be available. Fortunately, EV charging technology has come a long way, and EV chargers are more efficient, durable, and more intelligent than ever before. In this blog post, we’ll dive deeper into the technology behind EV chargers and why they’re a game-changer. First and foremost, let’s talk about the efficiency of EV chargers. Compared to traditional gas-powered vehicles, electric vehicles are more energy-efficient, and that efficiency translates to the charging process. The latest generation of EV chargers is incredibly efficient and can charge a vehicle battery in record time. But that’s not all – the management software used by these chargers employs AI algorithms to make the charging process even more efficient. The software automatically adjusts the charging rate based on the battery characteristics, temperature, and remaining charge, ensuring that the battery is charged as quickly and efficiently as possible. This not only saves time but also reduces the electricity required for charging, thereby saving money and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Another significant advantage of EV chargers is their durability and endurance in the face of harsh weather conditions. These chargers are made to withstand some of the harshest weather conditions, including heavy rain, snow, and high winds, making them perfect for outdoor charging stations. The materials used in these chargers are specifically selected to ensure that they’ll be able to withstand extreme temperatures, humidity, and other environmental factors, which are critical in outdoor installations. Nowadays, EV charger installations are commonplace in city areas, and their robustness is ideal for both city dwellers and rural inhabitants. Finally, there are a few other things you should know about EV chargers. First, you need to understand that there are different types of EV chargers, including Level 1 chargers (basic chargers that you can plug into any regular outlet), Level 2 chargers (which are faster than Level 1 chargers and require professional installation), and Level 3 chargers (the fastest and most powerful type of charger, typically only found in commercial locations). Another important thing to note is that many electric vehicles now come with “smart charging” features, allowing you to schedule charging times from your smartphone or other connected devices. The newest EV chargers have also enabled the feature to charge multiple vehicles simultaneously, making it even more efficient for public charging stations. So there you have it – EV chargers are the future of transportation, and they’re incredibly efficient, durable, and intelligent. If you’re considering making the switch to an electric vehicle, now is the perfect time to invest in one of these chargers. They make charging your vehicle a breeze and are built to last, so you don’t have to worry about replacing them anytime soon. As more and more electric vehicles hit the road, the EV charging infrastructure will continue to grow accordingly, and you’ll be able to charge up wherever you go without any issues. Go green with an EV and an advanced EV charger, and you can help make the world a better place while still enjoying the benefits of convenient car travel.

Texarkana College Trustees met today for their regular board meeting. Trustees heard a report from Brandon Washington, Vice President of Campus Operations and Dean of Workforce Training Programs, announcing the addition of a Barber Training program. Washington said the new barber program will provide students with the skills and knowledge necessary to become licensed barbers. “With a combination of classroom instruction and hands-on training, students can expect to be well-prepared for a career in the barbering industry,” said Washington. “Cosmetology and Barber students gain real-world experience in our student salon where the public can enjoy salon services at discounted prices.” Washington said the Barber Program was established through the vision and preparation of Dr. Ronda Dozier, TC’s cosmetology program director. Dr. Dozier said the offering of a barber program at Texarkana College had been on her mind for several years. “The demand for state-licensed barber professionals in this region has increased significantly in recent years,” said Dr. Dozier. “In just two semesters, TC will begin to bridge the gap by offering this program in a popular, hybrid format that promises to be high quality, low cost, and time-efficient for enrolled students.” Dr. Dozier said that the passing of new legislation has enabled barber programs to share space in cosmetology educational facilities, tremendously reducing the cost of adding a new program. “The instructional facility will share space with Texarkana College’s Cosmetology program,” said Dr. Dozier. “Barber students will learn a wide range of skills including hair cutting and styling, facial hair grooming, and sanitation and safety practices.” For more information about the program, visit texarkanacollege.edu/programs/barber. In other business, Dr. Donna McDaniel, Vice President of Instruction, reported that several members of TC’s Leadership Team attended the Texas Success Center’s Talent Strong Texas Pathways Institute in Dallas earlier this month. The Texas Success Center designs and manages a coherent, statewide framework for action to increase student success at the fifty community colleges throughout the state. At the institute, an emphasis is placed on the development of action plans by each community college to implement Texas Pathway strategies on their campus which will result in structured academic and career paths for all students. Dr. McDaniel said TC faculty and staff embrace the Texas Pathways philosophy to help set goals and measure student success outcomes. “The Texas Pathways Institute provides a platform for faculty and deans to establish goals that enhance student learning outcomes and determine actions, data and timelines associated with attainment of each goal,” said Dr. McDaniel. “It is a dynamic institute where leaders from community colleges across the state gather to learn more about best practices and milestones achieved through implementation of Pathways strategies.” At the conclusion of the meeting, TC President Dr. Jason Smith reported that TC will hold its spring commencement ceremony on Thursday, May 11, 2023. “The coming-together of students and their families, along with our faculty and staff, to acknowledge the success of our graduates is the highlight of every semester,” said Dr. Smith. TC’s commencement ceremony will be held at First Baptist Church, 3015 Moores Ln, Texarkana, TX, at 7:00 PM. A live stream of the ceremony will be accessible from TC’s website homepage at www.texarkanacollege.edu.

Flint Neighborhood Group Event Looks to Fight Blight in City One thing the past twelve months have taught us is that community matters. In good times, and in the bad, pulling together to help one another is more important than ever. One local Flint group is building on the sentiment to fight an ongoing issue plaguing Flint. Neighborhoods are battling blight that is taking away from the beauty and landscape of once picturesque areas within the city. Fighting the problem has become the mission of The Sarvis Park Neighborhood Association. With a mission focused on restoring pride and the value of the real estate in our area while bridging the generational gap through community engagement, the group has organized an event to start revitalizing areas in the city starting with Sarvis Park. The event will take place on April 24th at Sarvis Park starting at 9:45am. Neighbors, residents, and those wishing to help spruce up the park are encouraged to join in on day of pride and clean-up to the neighborhood park. In a statement, the group said, "Since fighting blight is an ongoing issue in our town, we want to team up with all concerned community stakeholders. We do our part by assisting in keeping the city one neighborhood at a time, starting with the Sarvis Park neighborhood. We hope to create a movement that continues to propel Flint Forward." Those wishing to attend and help are encouraged to register ahead of time by calling (810) 955-5401 or sending a email to [email protected] to ensure an accurate food count. Although some supplies will be available, volunteers are encouraged to bring their own tools as supplies will be limited. You can check out all the wonderful things The Sarvis Park Neighborhood Association is doing in the community by visiting their Facebook page. UP NEXT: 9 Great Selfie Spots In Downtown Flint

Ex 6 Clearing Energy Learning to Accept Responsibility Learning to Accept Responsibility The principle of responsibility, like that of personal honesty, is of paramount importance in the world of personal and spiritual growth. This is not a rule of man, but one of nature and that rule is our actions have consequences. There is a strong correlation between responsibility and honesty. A lack of honesty generally means one is not taking responsibility, and vice versa. In the Bible, the Ten Commandments are an interpretation of “divine law” through a prophet (I am not necessarily agreeing with the Commandments or their wording). Consider the seven deadly sins as another example of man’s interpretation of the laws of nature. The fundamental premise is that there are consequences to causing harm to others. Not because it is a sin, or contravention of divine law, rather because the laws of the universe say that for every action there is a reaction. When we manifest lower energies, we will need to deal with them at some point in this life or the next. When people do not act a certain way or as told, it leads to lower emotions, typically those associated with anger, guilt and blame. Avoiding the act does not clear the issue within us, no matter how long you avoid it; it partially isolates it and creates a mental barrier. Depending on the individual's will power (not to be confused with Will) one may be able to stop the activity; however, we are only avoiding an unresolved issue. Unresolved issues can lead to very serious physical, emotion, or even mental consequences. The term "will power", as it is commonly used, refers to the ability to resist or control, the power of ones will comes from within and is an understanding that all volition is universal, rather than personal. Breaches of particular religious commandments in deed or thought, certainly in western religion are sins. The idea of sin, as previously stated, is a man made construct, it is not an actual law of the universe. There are simply actions, or choices and consequences. The reason I have brought Christian beliefs into the discussion is they are the dominant Western religious belief. We can make a similar case in regards to any religions that contains a doctrine of sin. We would all agree that if you heat water to a high enough temperature it boils. In a similar fashion, when we do not take responsibility for the energies we manifest we allow them to build up. If we remove the heat source, the water will cool; otherwise, it will get warmer. In a similar fashion, we will continue to build up of lower energies in our aura as long as the source of the imbalance remains. The result being we continue to attract energies, indeed experiences of a similar kind. To resolve this one must remove the source. The source of the imbalance is poor programming of the rational mind. We have learned how to avoid personal responsibility in situations where our mind determines it will benefit us. This does not mean it actually is of benefit, only that at some level we believe this to be so. We must accept our responsibilities, not avoid them. However, learning to do this, making it a part of you is not a simple task. As with many of the principles I have talked about in this study guide, you take it one-step at a time. It likely took your whole life to put you where you are, do not expect yourself to correct it in a few weeks. Use your developing honesty to help you “see” where you responsibilities lie in any given situation. From there you can explore why you felt and likely continue to feel differently about it. We cannot resolve our issues without taking responsibility for our thoughts, to make an effort to examine them. The task is more difficult because most of the problems that have led us to be irresponsible relate to events buried in our childhood. However, we do not always have to be able to remember what happened to deal with it. We can do that by working on it in the present. Do not let setbacks deter you. Try to take it easy, pick you battles, and work on it. The key is to work on accepting TOTAL RESPONSIBLITY for your actions. Determining what one is responsible for is not easy. Again, as I have mentioned before, it is not a matter of right and wrong or good and evil. It is a matter of choices and consequences regardless of our conscious awareness of them. Responsibility is generally defined as accountability or being answerable for a particular duty, trust or obligation. The question is who determines what our responsibilities are? You could argue that society does, our employers, friends, associates do and so forth. The actual answer is that all of these and none of these do. Responsibility is what we choose to accept regardless of external influences on us. We make these choices, based on our experiences, and our awareness and acceptance of responsibilities presented to us from without. Let us consider a situation where a rock falls off a mountain and someone dies as a result. Is the rock responsible for crushing them? It is true that the falling rock crushed them; however, no one would say the rock is not responsible for the act. The rock did not make the choice to fall. Responsibility enters the equation when we choose, whether we are conscious of the choice or not. The question of how far our responsibility extends is another matter. Take the case someone’s feelings are hurt by someone I have said. Am I responsible for hurting the others feelings? The answer is no. The person whose feelings were hurt are responsible for their own feelings, I am responsible for the reasons that led me to say it and for speaking it. If the intent of my words was to hurt, belittle, show superiority and so on, then I have an issue to deal with; however, it is separate from the issue the person I said them to has. What we have in this case is two people with separate issues expressed through a shared experience. The above situation is deliberately simplistic to help clarify the basic responsibility we have. In reality, our interactions are rarely so cut and dried with only one factor in play. Our interactions occur on many levels so it is helpful to consider our responsibility in relation to our interactions one aspect at a time. At the same time we must also be honest. For instance, we all have dealt with situations where we have been asked a question and we believe the other persons feelings could be hurt by our answer. Do we say the truth as we see, say something dishonest to spare their feelings or avoid answering? There is no definitive answer to this. This is part of the lessons of life. We could say the truth and lose a friend and future opportunities to help them because they are unable to handle the honesty or we could spare their feelings by lying or avoiding yet miss the current opportunity to help them. Further, both of these are based on our presumption of what is right or beneficial for them. We must examine our thoughts and feelings about answering their question and when we do answer it is with the best interests of all in mind. We also must be careful that we are not trying to control the person, situation or outcome by how we choose to answer. There will always be some measure of uncertainty until such a time as we have learned to quiet our restless mind and listen to our intuition unfettered by our own thoughts. In the meantime, we make choices and observe and integrate the outcome, this is how we learn. Our responsibilities extend to all our interactions with others and over all our thoughts. We have responsibilities in the moment based on our actions, and responsibilities for the ideas we support and believe in. In a basic one on one interaction, it is is fairly easy to see who is responsible for what. It can be harder to accept that our thoughts about certain concepts become part of the collective consciousness of man, and hence can influence others we do not even know. Thoughts are energy, and they do not simply vanish after we think them. It moves like a wave and if strong, can affect similar energies in others inducing the thought in them (this is the basis of many forms of telepathy). Few realize that disapproval of gays in part facilitates the negative actions taken towards them by others. Our thoughts radiate from us, they can influence the weak minded or those predisposed to them. We are not responsible for the act itself, that resides with the person doing it; however, our thoughts can play a role, hence our responsibility. Our responsibilities for our thoughts are much more challenging to discern than say an act where the consequences are visible. We are responsible, in whole or part, for various aspects of any given interaction. A different degree of responsibility is associated with each aspect; one can consider them as layers of responsibility. The layers of potential responsibilities in an interaction include: The responsibilities of the person(s) in the interaction Responsibilities all parties share My responsibility for others The part those connected to us share in it. The part shared by all humankind. The parts I do not know about that I also share.... In every action we perform, there are shared portions. If I hit you then I have my part to accept responsibility for, you would have to take responsibility for being in the place and time where I could hit you. You may be inclined to say that you were there by accident, but in the universe, there are no accidents. Everything happens for a reason. In this example, my responsibility for the act is clearly visible, while the other person appears to have none as it is behind a veil, hidden from view. That is we do not know what drew them, consciously or otherwise, to be at that place and time to be hit. There are countless reasons why we allow ourselves to become victims. We need to ask ourselves what actions or energies are we manifesting that the other person reacted to, and as mentioned above, what brought me to that location in the first place? Perhaps he or she ignored the feeling that they should have stayed home, maybe they were in a hurry, they were not paying attention to their intuition or maybe they made choices long ago that resulted in their being there. I realize it sounds like I blaming the victim for being in the wrong place. This is definitely not so. I am blaming no one. There is no blame, only responsibility. Blame is a tangle of negative emotions created through our response to an experience. Beyond “my part, and your part” is our part. That which binds us to that place and time together. It is what drew us to share the experience. If the event is a catastrophic one, or one with huge consequences in our lives then the bond is greater, perhaps linked to other experiences in this life, or in another life. Family relations, and close friendships are often this way. There are also responsibilities we share based on our culture, our laws. For example, take a culture that has imposes the death penalty for a crime. Is the person who pulls the switch a murderer? No, the culture shares the burden. The person who acts for the whole takes some responsibility though not the bulk of it. I am not referring to feelings of hate, as these belong mostly to the individual expressing them; however, when a society condones, fosters or allows such acts to occur then all people of that culture share some responsibility. While this may be a graphic example, it is useful in illustrating the concept of shared responsibility. We cannot use the notion of shared ignorance to excuse the acts of our society; to do so is an abdication of personal responsibility. Society is not a separate entity; it is the collective “we”. When we change, it will, not before. Learning to accept responsibility begins with starting to recognize where in our lives we not accepting responsibility or have not. Looking at our personal strengths and weaknesses helps us in this. Our weaknesses will point us to a number of areas where may not be taking full responsibility, giving us a place where we can start to do so. As we did in our work on honesty, we can examine areas in our life where we struggle with responsibility. Ask yourself similar questions to the ones you did when you worked on the Honesty Table. This will help pinpoint the areas where you struggle with responsibility. Target those areas where you can improve your sense of responsibility with the least effort or the ones you must deal with. By going after them, and succeeding, we build an additional foundation to stand one, one from where we are more likely to succeed when we work on the harder ones. Accepting responsibility also makes a significant difference in the development of our spiritual and psychic aspects. By this, I mean responsibility for all our deeds and all our thoughts as well. When we accept responsibility for every aspect of our lives, there is less clutter in our minds. Those who do this find it easier to meditate, to relax in general. It is likely they will be happier, friendlier and more at ease with life in general. There are fewer issues to work past, or around when we clear up our thoughts. This also raises our vibration rate. Our daily meditations are easier, fuller, more satisfying and successful. By accepting responsibility for our actions, we begin to enable the skill to listen to the world around us. We are less frightened of ghosts in the closet, able to see ourselves more honestly accelerating the growth process. Our responsibilities are not always clearly visible. We often proceed with uncertainty. When we are open to accepting personal responsibility, they start to show themselves to us. It is as if they hide so long as we are not serious about doing anything about them. They end up wrapped in knots of blame and guilt, of anger and jealousy. These in turn are likely “causes” for some of many of our personal and life problems. At the same time, we must be careful that we are not accepting responsibility for others lives. We are not here to do their work for them nor are we here to try to control what they do. Legal obligations or parental considerations aside, we must be very careful we do not assume responsibility for the choices, actions or lives of others. They have their own lessons to learn and further, our need to be responsible for them may be due to our lack of being responsibility for ourselves. After all, if we can get others to be as we believe they should be we make them responsible for our need thereby avoiding responsibility ourselves. It should be obvious that, at least at an intellectual level that accepting responsibility helps us to clear up the mental debris in our rational mind. Developing the personal awareness that one should be taking responsibility for the experiences in their lives is the initial step towards accepting responsibility. Improved clarity gives us a greater return for our efforts. This is due to spending less time working against ourselves. We can put the effort we do not expend here towards other goals. We get stronger and internal resistance starts to fade. Push yourself in this area and pursue self-responsibility in all your acts and thoughts as often as you can.

Wave Shoppe Customer Testimonials A note from the Wave Shoppe: We publish a small amount of the feedback we receive from our customers, not because we think it will make you purchase something, but because we value our customers feedback and embrace the opportunity to share their comments and opinions with you. Wave Shoppe Aloha Surf Shirts From Jay DiMartino Solid Construction with Sweet Surf Style! The shirt I received is a handmade polyester button up shirt packed with genuine Hawaiian style patterns and created in the image of the classic Hawaiian Aloha casual/work shirt, boasting real coconut buttons. This shirt is brimming with surf style, and I found the construction to be solid and comfortable without a hint of that Wal-Mart mass-production cookie cutter look. This is the real Hawaiian deal but without the real Hawaiian price. According to the Wave Shoppe website, they utilize polyesters, cottons; microfiber, rayon and poly/cotton blends, and some of their seamstresses have over 25 years of experience making Hawaiian shirts. I found the prices at Wave Shoppe to be much lower than their overseas competitors; in fact, their prices are around 40% lower than their Hawaiian counterparts and higher in quality than the imports from India and China. The bottom line is that these shirts are handmade in America using quality products." "Charles, thanks so much for your help on my recent purchase of two shirts. Your exceptional service will keep me coming back to Wave Shoppe for my Aloha Shirts. I got the shirts in time to support my recent travels and really appreciate anything you did to make that happen.

DADA EXECUTIVE CHEF CUT HIS CHOPS AMONG DELRAY BEACH’S FINEST By Nicole Danna Jessie Steele is the new face behind one of Delray Beach’s most beloved restaurants, Dada, but there’s more to the inked-up chef than meets the eye. Steele, 39, is laid-back cool with tattooed arms and a calm, stoic gaze. Over the years, he’s worn many hats in addition to chef: a bass player for several bands, building swimming pools for his father’s company, poker dealer, bus boy, bartender — even potato peeler. While most 13-year-old’s spent summer vacation finding their way in and out of trouble, Steele was working at his neighbor’s restaurant, content with one of the kitchen’s most tedious tasks. “My first job was peeling potatoes and making French fries at Doc’s All American,” said Steele. “And I loved it.” Before that, his earliest memories in the kitchen were cooking with his two grandmothers – rolling out cookie dough with the Italian one, or making pasteles with his Brazilian one. As he got older, a natural talent with a knife meant helping his mother in the kitchen on holidays, or manning the grill beside his father. Steele won’t hesitate to tell you he also spent a good amount of free time watching the Cooking Channel as a teenager. “Other kids would be outside,” Steele said. “I was home watching Emeril. My friends and I would chug beers and watch him cook. Then I’d write down the recipes and try to recreate them. But I never thought I’d be a chef.” Delray Beach born and raised, Steele recalls his hometown before restaurants like 32 East and Dada brought fine and innovative dining to the seaside village. “I remember when Atlantic Avenue didn’t have anything but a gas station. No restaurants. No bars,” Steele said. “At the time, I didn’t know anything about food. I grew up eating Brazilian food, rice and beans, meat and French fries. It took touring with bands and seeing different food to open my eyes.” A move to Orlando in 2002 prompted him to consider a new career path. When his girlfriend suggested he go to culinary school, he took her advice, driving 90 miles each way, five days a week, to the nearest culinary program in Lakeland, Fla. He’d later graduate from Florida Culinary Institute. Although Steele has worked with several Delray Beach establishments over the years — from Caffe Luna Rosa and Sundy House to 3rd & 3rd and Death or Glory Bar — his big break came from working under the tutelage of uber-disciplined 32 East chef Nick Morfogen. “That job taught me finesse,” Steele said. “It was a great learning experience.” Today, Steele credits three South Florida chefs for their influence. From former Green Gourmet chef Joey Giannuzzi he learned to “see everything.” This piece of advice he’s used to keep on top of not only what’s going on in the kitchen, but the restaurant itself. From Morfogen he learned to work clean, but also how to taste and season properly. From former 3rd & 3rd executive chef Ellis Cooley, he learned the new-school flare of molecular gastronomy. Part of Steele’s success is due to the fact that he never stops learning. Every day is an opportunity to try something new. A copy of Bon Appétit is never far away. His mornings are spent researching some exotic dish and creating a recipe that will do it justice. “I remember when Atlantic Avenue didn’t have anything but a gas station. No restaurants. No bars.” That’s most evident with the chef’s vegan following. After cleaning and butchering fish and meat all day, coming home covered in blood, he decided to go vegan. It was a chance to teach himself a new way of cooking – but also a new perspective. “I went vegan for an entire year as an experiment,” said Steele, who now offers several vegan dishes on the Dada menu. “I didn’t know anything about vegan cooking, so I figured the best way to master it was to throw myself into it.” That same curiosity translates to the chef’s signature style, which is best defined as global comfort food — one inspired by his love of variety coupled with the simplicity of home-cooked fare. “That’s my way of traveling. Recreating something from a global perspective. I don’t hesitate to throw something like that on my menu without having made it before,” Steele said. “It’s always a hit.” Today, Dada is all the better for it.“Coming here after [chef-owner Bruce Feingold], I had humongous shoes to fill,” Steele said. “Here’s a guy who’s done so much for the Delray food scene, it was hard to come in with the idea of putting my own stamp on it, but at the same time keep the menu true to his original vision.” For longtime Dada alums, much of the menu may seem unfamiliar. Nearly 80 percent is new, and changes occur every few months. Steele tires from static menus, preferring to highlight locally-sourced, seasonally-expressive ingredients. His biggest change: breaking down whole fresh fish purchased daily. While much has changed, some menu items have remained largely untouched. Dada’s famous bacon-wrapped dates are still on the menu, only now you’ll find a new chorizo, and a sherry gastrique has replaced the tomato confit. This summer, the salmon will change for the first time after 19 years, but don’t worry, it has been elevated to the next level for a delightful change. “I’m still amazed with how much food we put out of this kitchen on a daily basis,” Steele said. “It’s a testament to how consistent Dada has managed to stay, and I’m glad I can help be a part of that legacy.” Visit Chef Jesse Steele at Dada located at 52 N Swinton Ave, Delray Beach, FL 33444

Tapioca is the main ingredient in traditional milk-based boba tea. It is a starch extracted from cassava roots. Cassava plants are native to the Americas, but they are now grown in tropical regions around the world, including Africa, South America, and Southeast Asia.The first recorded use of tapioca was in Europe, in 1544. The Portuguese brought cassava to Africa, where it was cultivated and used to make a flour. The flour was then exported to Asia, where tapioca pudding was made from it. For centuries, tapioca pudding was a delicacy in South and Southeast Asia, but it was not the only starch-based pudding to gain popularity.In the 19th century, starch-based puddings, including tapioca pudding, became popular in Europe and North America. The most popular starch-based pudding was the English version, which was called sago pudding. Sago is slightly different from cassava, and it is native to Asia.Although we dont know the exact year when tapioca was first made into pearls, we do know that it was invented in the islands of Southeast Asia . It was commonly used in dishes to increase the texture and taste experience, and eventually made its way to Taiwan. This is where it was first infused in milk tea to create boba tea.
