OT: Best Food in Stroudsburg/E. Stroudsburg?
Thread: OT: Best Food in Stroudsburg/E. Stroudsburg?
I will be working with teachers across the border in Blairstown, NJ this week but I am staying in Stroudsburg. Where's the best grub?
I am half tempted to drive to Scranton to get my Dunder Mifflin fix, but not sure an Instagram pic in front of Poor Richard's Pub is worth the 2 hour round trip.
Re: OT: Best Food in Stroudsburg/E. Stroudsburg?
Stroudsburg is one of those nice old Victorian towns that hasn't had its downtown abandoned or gutted. East Stroudsburg doesn't have the charm of Stroudsburg. There are some decent local non-chain places but nothing stands out in my memory.
Poor Richard's is a bust ... unless you bowl.
Get some Pizza by Alfredo.
Seruous note the seafood place from the show is pretty legit.
I sent you a pers. message. Please check.
I know years ago you could go to the Steamtown mall (now known as the Marketplace) and get your picture in front of the "Scranton Welcomes You" sign that they aired during the opening credits of "The Office".
Depends on how badly you want that pic. The entire Scranton-Wilkes Barre area is a desolate place (IMHO). If you went to Scranton you'd probably realize it was a mistake. Stroudsburg and East Stroudsburg are pretty nice. Are you working at The Blair Academy?
Downtown Stroudsburg is your best bet most likely, it's definitely the more charming of the two town centers. East Stroudsburg is primarily residential and really functions as an extension of Stroudsburg as much as its own town. I was a big fan of the old Dansbury Depot, but after the fire it was replaced by Trackside Grill, which is fine, but more generic. In Stroudsburg I'm partial to the Sarah Street Grill but there are definitely a few decent options you have.
Can we have a Dunder Mifflin thread? Man, do I miss that show.
Thanks for all of the great information. I am working with North Warren Regional HS. Sounds like I wait on Scranton until I head back that way next summer. Stroudsburg sounds like it’s got plenty of options. Warrior gave me some good insight.
Yes, an Office thread would be awesome. Currently binging Season 8 and 9 while waiting for my flight from GR to Newark.
Seasons 1-3 were some of the funniest televison shows ever in my opinion.
Dinner Party was a great episode, too. I still have no idea how they ever filmed that scene when Michael was showing off his 12" Flat Screen. Amazing how they kept straight faces. On the outtakes they just couldn't do it.
The amazing thing is The Office is alive and well. It's reborn to this high school and college generation.
There are two or 3 blocks downtown with a bunch of restaurants and bars. A place called Yard of Ale is pretty good (more of an upscale brew pub feel, but they don’t make their own beer), and there is a nice Irish pub a few doors down as well.
Rudy's Tavern in East Stroudsburg is a MUST!!!! Great bar food, and the bar bill won't bust your wallet! Log Cabin on Rte 46, just on the Jersey side of the Delaware is a great spot too!!!
I wouldn't recommend Rudy's to a visitor looking to have a nice meal. Yeah the bar food is good, but it is more of a college, early twenties bar scene. $1 drafts and supers.
I haven't visited the site much since the end of the season but just wanted to thank everyone for the suggestions.
I stayed at the Hampton a couple of blocks from downtown so it was an easy walk to Happy Hour. Sampled several including Yard of Ale and then ended up at Siamsa Irish Pub for dinner.
Great area with great people on both side of the river. Maybe Hillsdale and the Warriors can hook up OOC sometime....or in the playoffs. | 2019-04-23T18:13:07 | http://www.d2messageboard.com/showthread.php?t=94010&s=9b3a30e7f44ebca6bdc3a1b43888f6d8 |
When the DeKalb County School System(Decatur, GA) experienced rapid growth in the early 1990s, theexisting technology training program failed to keep pace, leavingmany instructors in the dark. Even though DeKalb spent nearly $1.6million each year to teach staff personal computer skills, only 8% ofthe population became competent in all the applications, whichincluded a word processor, database and spreadsheet. In the summer of1995, a committee met to discuss DeKalb's strategy for implementingnew technologies. A major goal was that teachers, students,administrators and parents would achieve a minimum proficiency in theuse of computers.
Foremost, committee members recognized a need toreach a greater number of teachers in a shorter amount of time.Secondly, they sought a method for training that would be readilyavailable at all times, since most instructors could not afford toleave their classrooms during the day. In addition, the method wouldhave to be self-paced, as group members would have varying levels ofknowledge and experience.
The solution came from Industrial TrainingCorp. (ITC), of Atlanta, Georgia. Partnering withAchieve, Inc., ITC supplied all the necessary courseware,facilitation and hotline support services required byDeKalb.
The training project began Sept. 25, 1995 at threeelementary schools: Austin, Hawthorne andMainstreet. Each of the original 108 participants received adesktop computer, which he or she could take home. An additional 60notebook computers supported off-site training. ITC'sPC-Skills Activ Learning Library solutions were loadedonto each machine.
The ITC package comprised Using PersonalComputers, Windows Basics and Intermediate, WordPerfect 6.1 Basics,PowerPoint 4.0 Basics, Excel 5.0 Basics and Microsoft AccessBasics.
After 15 weeks of multimedia training, 83% of theparticipants believed they were competent in all the applications.Both novice and veteran teachers praised the new training method."This type of training is less intimidating than being in a regularclassroom where everyone knows when you don't know something," saidone teacher.
The second project, conducted in the spring 1996quarter, targeted administrative staff at 30 high schools. Trainingsessions were held in three labs at DeKalb's Rehoboth InstructionalCenter. The 550 participants ranged from principals andcounselors to bookkeepers and secretaries. Staff members weremandated to acquire 32 hours of personal computer training by the endof the fall quarter. Spending extra hours in the lab, many peoplecompleted their training in the spring rather than waiting until thenext school year.
Participants in both projects learned how tomaneuver the mouse and navigate through Windows. They also learnedhow to create, save, open, close, edit and print documents in all theapplication software. For the PowerPoint course, many teacherscreated slideshow presentations that they then used in theirclassrooms. And after the WordPerfect course, more staff membersstarted to produce memos, calendars and newsletters on theirPC.
As a result of these successful projects, DeKalb'ssuperintendent and board of education agreed to obtain and implement8,400 ITC courses throughout the school system andcommunity-at-large. The Basic Skills Library, forexample, addresses reading and writing, and suits adult literacyefforts, while the Technical Skills Library contains100 titles on electronics, pipefitting, troubleshooting, etc. forvocational training.
The training resources provide specific supportover a four-year period. As part of the plan, DeKalb will establishFamily Resource Centers at several sites to allowstudents and parents to learn side-by-side. Convinced that ITC'straining methods work, administrators hope that these centers willfoster life-long learning and help bridge the gap between schools andsurrounding communities. | 2019-04-25T09:42:51 | https://thejournal.com/articles/1997/01/01/new-technology-training-method-brings-ga-educators-out-of-the-dark.aspx |
A brand image is the sum impression of a company’s “personality” in the minds of customers. It can be at the same time factual and imaginary. Brand image develops over time as a result of customers’ cumulative experience across numerous touch points. A strong brand image results in an overall favorable impression of the company and its products and services and fosters a sense of trust.
A common misconception is that brand creation involves designing a great logo, a smart marketing plan, or well-crafted communications materials and advertising. It’s true, these are essential to a strong brand image but don’t do the entire job in and of themselves. Consumers are smart. Telling them how great your products are doesn’t work. The old model of big corporations forcing brands into the market is over. With the advent of the Internet and social media, consumers now have a much greater influence in the market.
What is my unique proposition and what is it that makes my company or products relevant and desirable?
How can I offer value that my competitors don’t?
What promises and commitments can I make to them and am willing to stand behind?
What values am I committed to and for what do I want to be known?
Define these carefully and apply them consistently. Let these values guide every decision you make. Make sure everyone in your organization understands them and keeps them top-of-mind. Your brand values should permeate your entire culture—from your annual report to the way the receptionist answers the phone.
In ‘n Out Burger is a strong brand built mostly on word-of-mouth. The company does very little advertising but became very successful by understanding who they are and never deviating from their core brand values. They offer high quality, simple food at a reasonable price. They keep their menu limited, choosing to do a few things very well and consistently delivering a quality product. This simple approach separates them from competitors who continuously update their menus. Customers trust them to provide a uniform experience no matter what location they visit. The result is a customer base that is fiercely loyal. They have learned what their customers expect and work hard to provide it consistently.
A brand never becomes strong by trying to be all things to all people. Define for whom your product or service is intended and focus on them. Know who your ideal customers are and make an effort to understand their particular needs and desires. What problems will you solve for them? Can you make their lives better? How will you engage with them? How can you give them a more substantial stake in your company and include them in your culture?
Creating personas can make it easier to visualize your customers as real people, understand their needs, and appeal to them emotionally as well as intellectually.
Today, customers are in the driver’s seat. Your business will thrive or fail based on whether or not they feel an affinity for your brand and what it offers them. At the very least you’ll want to develop a deep understanding of who they are, what they value, and how best to communicate with them.
Trust is the foundation of a strong brand. To earn that trust you must prove yourself trustworthy. Always be honest with your customers. Always tell the truth—not what you want them to hear. If you make a mistake, own it. Mistakes are never good, but by attempting to cover them up, you may lose your customers’ trust and never get it back. Customers can forgive mistakes if you admit them and do your best to make them right.
Recently, Volkswagen installed software in many of their diesel cars designed to falsify emission test to make them appear to run cleaner. After it was exposed to the public, brand analysis by Gallup revealed that 4 out of 10 consumers were much less likely to buy a Volkswagen in the future. While the company has since admitted the transgression and has apologized, that betrayal of their customers’ hard-earned trust has tarnished their brand image. It could take many years to regain the loyalty that was lost.
One of the worst things you can do is imitate a more successful competitor. It may be tempting to ride on the coattails of their success, but that won’t get you very far. Chances are, those companies are successful because they identified and leveraged their unique strengths. You should do the same. The key to making your brand stand out is not imitation but differentiation. In the same way that no two people are exactly alike, companies have qualities that make them unique. Identify yours and build on them.
Develop a voice and visual style in your communications that is uniquely yours—one that matches your company’s “personality” and values. In addition to a great logo and tagline, establish a unique tone of voice in your writing and be consistent in the use of typography, colors, and images. It’s always a good idea to hire a brand specialist to guide you through this process and create a visual “vocabulary” that is all your own. Avoid using stock images when possible. It can be very confusing to your customers if your competitor happens to use the same photos or illustrations as you—and it does happen. Creating a library of custom images to be used for multiple purposes makes good branding sense and may even save money in the long run.
We’ve established that every brand has unique qualities. Each brand also has a story all its own. It might include your company history but, most importantly, it should describe your vision. Take some time to write yours and use it as a basis for all your brand communications. If you have a clear story, it will be easier for customers to understand and relate to you. A good brand story will make it easier for them to care about what you have to offer and become emotionally invested.
The term story, however, can be a bit misleading. It’s not a narrative to publish and distribute, although there may be times this would be appropriate. Instead, it’s a conceptual thread woven through every communication your company has with the public whether it’s from your website, blog, literature, product packaging or from the lips of your sales or support personnel.
Finally, while your story is about your brand, the focus should be on your customers and how they benefit from what you provide for them. Good branding is a partnership between you and your customers.
Starbucks is an example of a great brand story. It started with a commitment to great tasting gourmet coffee but developed over time into something much more. Many other companies were selling good coffee, but Starbucks noticed early on the difference between American coffee shops and the coffee culture in Europe which centers around small espresso bars. These are not only places to get great coffee but are social hubs as well. With this in mind, they set out to make Starbucks not only a great coffee bar but a community as well. The products, furnishings, music, and décor were all designed to provide delightful customer experiences for a young, hip demographic. The story is less about the company than the experience it provides.
Let’s face it. Grabbing attention in our communication-saturated culture is a challenge. According to Yankovich Consumer Research, the average person sees or hears as many as 5,000 marketing messages per day. That’s a lot of competition! To have any hope of being noticed, you must have a compelling message and convey it as simply as possible. Today, any message that requires more than a moment to absorb will likely be overlooked. In branding, it’s axiomatic that less is more.
There’s a lot you could say about your products but don’t try to say too much. While they may have a host of great attributes, the only ones that matter are those that make your customers’ lives better. For example, think of all the amazing technology and programming that went into creating Apple’s SIRI. Detailing the technical intricacies that went into the product might be interesting to some, but to the average consumer, it’s irrelevant. All that matters to them is that they can ask their phone a question and get a quick, helpful answer. Focus on the features that benefit the customer most and save everything else for the technical documents.
To say a picture is worth a thousand words may sound cliché, but it’s absolutely true. Research confirms that we remember visual images more easily than words. Using photos or illustrations to tell a story can be more effective than writing. Most people are lazy readers. If something looks like an effort to read, people will often move on. A picture, on the other hand, can be processed by the brain almost immediately. What’s more, images can have an emotional appeal that doesn’t come across as readily with words alone.
Great images can send implicit messages about a product’s quality or reinforce a brand’s personality. Apple does an excellent job of using quality images to enhance the perceived value of their products and, by extension, their brand.
According to Psychology Today, while most people believe they make purchasing decisions based on rational analysis, in reality, most choices are heavily influenced by emotion. Strong brands appeal to customers on an emotional level as well as a rational one.
In fact, shoppers are often willing to pay more for a name brand product even when there is a cheaper generic alternative with the same features. Most purchases are made at a subconscious level and not always for practical reasons. A woman may be more likely to buy a pair of shoes because she thinks they will make her look attractive than because she believes them to be well made. A man may choose a BMW over a Toyota because he believes it will make him appear more successful even though either would fulfill the practical need of getting him from home to the office.
The most successful brands create a powerful connection to the consumer by appealing to their emotional needs whether they be greed, desire, social acceptance, envy, fear or altruism. People are less interested in what a product can do than what it can do for them. If, as a brand, you tell your story in a way that resonates emotionally and fulfills a customer’s basic needs, you will be much more likely to develop a long-term relationship of trust and loyalty.
The Internet and social media have revolutionized the way the world communicates much like the printing press did in the 15th century. Upwards of 60% of Americans use social media multiple times each day—and that number is growing fast. Over the last decade, business communications have changed fundamentally. Technology has made it possible to have ongoing dialogs with customers, and they increasingly expect it. The advantage of social media over traditional advertising is the opportunity to engage with your customers rather than merely pitch to them. When a customer feels like they’re being listened to rather than talked at, they will be more likely to feel an affinity with your brand.
When using social media, it’s important to provide customers with information that is useful and relevant. Convey information that is so engaging people will want to share it. Make an effort to foster dialog. It’s not enough to push information out. Make sure you reply to comments, ask questions and do whatever you can to make users feel like they have a voice and that their voice matters to you.
Some companies, like Apple, have been successful creating products that people need before they know they need them. Most successful products, however, are a response to an existing need. The days of creating a product and forcing it into the marketplace are gone. Savvy companies today listen to their customers and develop products that solve real problems for them. Customers expect to have a voice, so why not use social media to give them a hand in product development? Try using surveys or contests to solicit their input as to design, colors, and features. Use that information to guide your product design and brand messaging. By the time you launch your product, many of your customers will already be invested.
You don’t necessarily need to have a presence on all social media platforms. Focus on those that are most appropriate for your particular brand. For example, LinkedIn is great for B2B. Instagram is a logical choice if your brand is inherently visual. Pinterest is ideal for brands related to fashion or other products directed at women. Due to its immediacy, Twitter may be the best way to keep your audience up to date on breaking news, product updates, promotions and to offer coupons and discounts to reward loyal customers. Facebook is a must for horizontal markets because it has over a billion users worldwide and its demographics are broad and varied.
Finally, write content that is relevant, friendly and conversational. Whatever platform you choose, be sure to post material that is consistent with your brand’s strategy, personality and values and is uniform in tone and voice.
Your brand image is everything. Like a garden, it requires constant tending—but can become unhealthy through neglect. However, by paying close attention to how you present your brand and the quality of customer engagement at each customer touch point, your brand will become stronger and flourish over time. | 2019-04-24T10:08:02 | https://www.laurensmith.com/brand-image/ |
You may think that your home is as safe as can be. You may think it is an impenetrable fortress that can’t be breached. You may think that just because a particular thing has never caused damage in your home that it won’t suddenly decide to do so. Even the safest of homes have their dangers. Because of this, it’s not necessarily about stopping the dangers, it’s about dealing with them in the right ways. This could be the difference between you staying safe and you putting yourself, and your family in danger.
First and foremost, when it comes to danger hotspots in the home, like with your electrics, you should leave any faults to be dealt with by a professional home electrician. Unless you are a trained and qualified electrician you should never try to fix an electrical fault. Yes, it is important to know where the main switch is so that you can turn everything off in an emergency. But this doesn’t mean you should know the ins and outs of your electrics. And it certainly doesn’t mean you should take to tampering with them yourself. Electricity can kill if it is treated in the wrong ways, and that should never be forgotten.
Something else that can kill if treated in the wrong ways is the ‘silent’ killer that is carbon monoxide. To treat this in the right way you should again seek help from a professional. In this case a qualified technician should be sought so that they can check out all the hotspots in your home that could potentially omit poisonous carbon monoxide fumes. But the need to treat this very real, and very serious plight in the right way doesn’t stop there. You should purchase a CO detector so that you can be alerted in the future to any potential hazardous fumes in your home. You should also try to refrain from heating your home with a gas oven.
There are a host of hidden dangers in your home, most of which can be quashed if you treat them in the right way. And when it comes to treating these dangers you should never be tentative to have to spend to do so. It’s all well and good saving money, but you should never try to save money if doing so puts your health and wellbeing at risk. You are far more important than money ever will be. So, the next time you have to decide between a coffee from Starbucks or a detector for your home, please go with the latter and not the latte!
When danger arises in your home you need to deal with it in the right way. You need to have it tended to by professionals. You need to do all you can to ensure that the danger never arises again. Choosing the right way to deal with things is crucial. As previously mentioned it could be the difference between your safety and danger. Quite extremely, it could be the difference between life and death. | 2019-04-21T16:19:29 | https://www.kindadusty.com/deal-with-the-dangers-in-your-home-in-the-right-way/ |

The lines between sports, media and gaming are becoming increasingly blurred. At their epicentre lies esports and their rapid convergence is driving the growth of sports gaming at a blistering pace. Already boasting professional athletes, eye-watering sponsorship deals and a global audience of over 350 million viewers, the popularity of esports is skyrocketing and is now even being considered for the Olympic Games. The cross-over of sports, media and gaming is forming the bedrock of the industry to come and will influence its trajectory into the future, creating a host of new career opportunities and business challenges.
The first glimpses of an entwined sports and esports future can already be seen. Earlier this year, Manchester City signed its second FIFA esports player and Aston Villa partnered with TalkTalk to broadcast its newly launched esports league, whilst a major feature of Tottenham Hotspur’s new stadium is its capacity for hosting esports matches. Traditional sports organisations fuelling the growth of esports is a trend gaining momentum around the world. Over 20 million players competed for a spot at this years’ FIFA eWorld Cup and McLaren has launched its own esports talent programme. The National Basketball Association (NBA), capitalising on the success of the first season of its esports league has announced a second, complete with housing and salaries for the players and the National Football League (NFL) is following hot on its heels as it looks to appoint a Head of Esports.
With major sporting associations and teams committing to sports gaming, esports are becoming increasingly professionalised. Sporting associations and sports teams are focusing on esports as a profitable brand vehicle – West Ham recently appointed an esports partner as its sleeve sponsor – and with the monetization of the industry, competitive esports are rapidly resembling traditional sports. Injuries, doping scandals and pay disputes materialise in the same way they do in traditional sports, while players are trained physically to ensure fast cognitive reactions and the same competing age time-lines impact esportsmen and women just as much as they do traditional athletes.
The events themselves mirror those of traditional sports with Blizzard’s first Overwatch League Championships achieving maximum capacity at the Barclays Center arena in Brooklyn whilst 300,000 viewers streamed the finals online. With 125 million gamers alone playing the third-person shooter Fortnite, the popularity of gaming offers an untapped audience for organisations to capitalise on.
The media’s role in cultivating the industry is patently clear and has successfully shaped the image of competitive gaming into a professional sport, in part, by catering to millennial viewing habits. Audience numbers for Match of the Day are increasing as a new generation of viewers favour shorter highlights over ninety minute games; almost five million viewers tuned in to the first Match of the Day of the season last year. On the other hand, viewing figures for live coverage of the Premier League continues to decline with millennial viewers courting alternative media platforms such as Snapchat to watch highlights of games.
Esports games are shorter and faster-paced than their real-world counterparts, ideal for the primary audience of time-precious millennials. Understanding the shift in behaviour, media giants such as ESPN have launched dedicated esports channels while last year the BBC began live coverage of esports games. Data is at the heart of this and media providers are utilising the analytics from their subscriber networks to drive viewer engagement and target consumers with greater accuracy. Amazon, who owns esports streaming channel Twitch TV, will also soon livestream 20 Premier League matches on Amazon Prime. The online retailer will take advantage of its many-tentacled network and Amazon Prime subscribers who view sports matches and purchase sports video games can expect to be targeted with adverts for live esports.
As the sports, media and gaming industries continue to blend into one another we can expect to see an increasing overlap of roles that has to some extent, already begun. Most recently, former UFC Brand Officer and ex-CEO of Manchester City Football Club Gary Cook, took up the role of Executive Chairman at UK based e-sports organiser Gfinity. The year before, Gfinity hired Mark Brittain, a former executive at TV production firm Syco, in an attempt to replicate popular sports and talent shows. With competitive gaming becoming increasingly mainstream, esports teams, leagues and associations are fishing for talent from a wider source than just the gaming recruitment pool. The transfer of skills is already coming from traditional sports and media as esports organisations look to tap into the entertainment industry, build themselves as major brands and harness sponsorship deals.
Looking to the future, the opportunities are many and varied. More and more teams are going to need managers to negotiate pay and handle sponsorship opportunities, while bourgeoning esports leagues will need talent coaches to nurture esports ‘superstars’. At present, the World Esports Association has been formed to standardise pay and rights within the industry, but regulation covering gambling, match-fixing and doping is still relatively light on the ground. What’s more, the wide variety of esports games means individual regulatory bodies for each esport are likely to be formed, creating a demand for governance and compliance skills that is more than likely to be met by the sports industry.
The growing business of professional video gaming is being defined by its trilateral roots in sports media and gaming as organisations within these industries see the lucrative opportunities its future holds. These landscapes will continue to merge and individuals will increasingly permeate across each industry so that soon, sports and esports will not look too dissimilar from one another.

I wonder if the physical and psychological pressures facing players will result in esports nutritional and mental well-being programmes, as per more traditional sports? Interesting that the first esports player to sign for Man City has taken time out this year to 're-focus'. | 2019-04-23T00:50:08 | https://www.odgersinterim.com/pl/who-we-are/intelligence/enter-the-maelstrom-why-the-convergence-of-sports-media-and-gaming-is-the-future-of-esports-4740/ |
Over the past four years, Trista Morrison has leveraged her unique combination of strategic insight, storytelling expertise and media savvy to evolve Ironwood’s image from a biotech startup to a fully-integrated commercial biotechnology company with two FDA-approved medicines and a robust pipeline of emerging treatments for patients with significant unmet needs.
Morrison spearheads corporate communications—branding, messaging, collateral and traditional/social media—as well as product PR for Ironwood’s market-leading drug, for which more than 1 million patients have filled a prescription. Additionally, she serves as a thought-partner to the executive team to define, refine and communicate the Ironwood story.
As Ironwood kicked off 2016, the company had outgrown its science-heavy, startup-focused story frame and needed to better emphasize the unmet needs it was serving and the significant commercial capabilities it was leveraging to do so, including its award-winning marketing team and national sales force. Working closely with the CEO and the executive team, Morrison co-led the process of reframing Ironwood’s story as a commercial biotechnology company, advancing its key franchises in irritable bowel syndrome with constipation/chronic idiopathic constipation, refractory GERD and vascular/fibrotic disease.
The revised messaging and related materials debuted at the J.P. Morgan Health Care Conference in January 2016—biotech’s largest investor conference—and feedback from investors, analysts and Ironwood’s Board of Directors was positive. Moreover, these key messages carried through positively in the subsequent media placements—including the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg Businessweek, the Boston Globe, and myriad trade publications, including a cover story in Life Science Leader—that Ironwood secured. Outreach around this effort has garnered nearly 250 million impressions year-to-date. | 2019-04-22T02:42:31 | https://www.prnewsonline.com/awardwinners/trista-morrison/ |

I’ve always been amazed at the villas in Cabo. Not only because the interiors are decorated like something out of a Hollywood mansion, but also because the architects have carved these giants into the landscape. Each villa has its own way of carving itself into the cliffs and hills.
The villa pictured is Casa Mariposa in the Corridor and we were able to visit it courtesy of Cabo San Lucas Villas. I took it from the beach. I’m still amazed that this beautiful piece of art is a 6 bedroom 10,000 square foot home. Renting a villa is definitely an amazing adventure in Cabo.

No matter how big or small your budget maybe in college, every student can benefit from the savings found at thrift stores. Here is my list of 7 Things College Students Should Buy at Thrift Stores that will help save you some cash.
I cannot stress this one enough. In college, I had lots of nice shirts, dress shirts, polos, and more. Eventually, I decided I would rather be comfortable in that 3-hour long physics class than wear a dress shirt. T-shirts quickly became my friend. They are cheap, light weight, and no tear will be shed if something accidentally happened to the $3 shirt instead of that nice J.Crew $90 dress shirt.
At most thrift stores including the bigger national stores such as Goodwill and Salvation Army, one can find wonderful t-shirts for $3-$5 a piece. Over the years I have picked up many awesome graphic shirts, sports shirts for my teams, and even an occasional wrestling t-shirt. Yes, I am a wrestling fan.
Shirts at thrift stores tend to be very cheap allowing money to be spent on additional items.
When searching for shirts, remember to check each shirt for stains, tears, holes, and rips. Even though you are buying these shirts for their cheap use factor, there is no reason to buy a damaged item when there are usually so many other shirts on the racks.
By hitting the thrift stores often, my friends and I were able to stock up on cheap shirts, and such a large amount of shirts, we were able to put off doing laundry for much longer periods. After all who wants to be stuck doing laundry during their college days when there are so many other cool things going on?
What was said above about t-shirts also applies to pants and jeans. That chemistry lab class, while almost always safe, does have the potential to stain or trash your clothes. Keep those AG or Levi jeans nice for when you go out on the town and wear that cheap $5-$9 thrift store find to class.
For dress pants and khakis I would try to always hit the thrift stores first. For me, the retail brands I liked on sale would run around $50 to $60 a pair. At thrift stores, when I find them I would pay between $6 and $8 a pair. For the price of one on sale retail pair of pants, I could buy a weeks worth at the thrift stores. The key was hitting the thrift stores often and searching the racks.
Pants & Jeans can be purchased at thrift stores for a small fraction of retail costs.
As with shirts, be sure to check each pair of pants for stains, rips, tears, or holes, unless they were designed that way. For jeans also check the pockets for holes, bent fasteners that may cut, and the zipper is functional.
Since you are buying t-shirts and pants at the thrift store you should swing over to the accessories section and do a little shopping. Belts, ties, scarfs, hats, bags, purses, and vintage jewelry are always in stock and often overlooked. I have found more high dollar accessories at almost free prices more than any other wardrobe item. For men, a mid range classy leather belt can easily run $50. At a thrift store that belt might be only $5 and in near new condition.
Books sections at thrift stores are cheap resources for textbooks and reference materials.
Yeah, I know, we all have smart phones and other tech gadgets. Books are like so 1990s and before. However, thrift stores in the town of your college may end up getting copies of text books for courses you take. Sometimes, they are off by a single edition. In some cases, this is not an issue because it may only contain very minor error corrections or simply updated cover art. Some new editions of books are released just to outdate the previous edition so people are forced into buying new books when the professors require the latest edition. This did happen for a few of my classes. Bought the 9th edition of an engineering book for $10 when the 10th edition with different cover art was over $120.
For English classes, philosophy, and any other course that has a wide range of written work that can be used, I cannot stress thrift stores enough. I had a philosophy course on the theory of knowledge. I was able to find a handful of books at the local thrift stores related to the course materials for a few bucks. If it was not for one of those books, I would not have been able to do well in the latter half of the semester in that class.
Dishware can be bought at discount retailers at cheap prices. Amazon runs great deals all the time. Going these routes you are guaranteed new items that all match. If getting items with character, retro or vintage looks, thrift stores are the way to go. You will always be able to find something, just don’t expect to find full matching sets.
For cookware stainless steel with copper bottoms are good. A cast iron skillet is a must have in any kitchen. Try to find pots with lids. In some stores lids, pots, and pans get separated so be sure to check to see what goes with what before making a purchase. If you do choose to buy a new set of cookware, AmazonBasics 2-piece fry pan set is a great deal.
Low-cost cookware and bakeware such as these Pyrex dishes can be found at thrift stores.
Other cookware such as mixing bowls and baking dishes are also cheaper at thrift stores when compared to retail. Two brands that I recommend shopping for are Corningware and Pyrex if you can find them at the thrift stores.
When mixing dishes of different brands try to stick to similar sizes and shapes so they will stack more easily in your cabinets. Avoid chipped, nicked, cracked, glued, or damaged dishes. Don’t buy scratched and damaged non-stick cookware.
Microwaves, George Foreman grills, coffee makers, toaster ovens, blenders, slow cookers, and table top grills could all be found within the first few dorm rooms on any floor in any of the dormitories on my universities campus. In other words, college students live off these appliances. Throw in the waffle maker, a breakfast sandwich maker, the local pizza delivery number, and the need for a stove and oven is no more. All of these items can be found at thrift stores that carry small appliances. You may have to visit a few stores to get most of them, but you can save a load of cash fast when compared to these items at full retail.
Small kitchen appliances can be found at thrift stores for prices that are 25% to 90% less than retail.
If you are more of a foodie or the weekend chef who has an off campus apartment with a real kitchen, you can get more luxury appliances such as upright stand mixers at a heavy discount too.
Also, don’t forget about small vacuum cleaners. New vacuums can be very pricey, a cheap older model high brand cleaner can be found at thrift stores. Be sure to check for appliances yard sales. People who remodel their homes and replace carpets with wood floors or tile have no need for the $300 Dyson cleaner and you can usually negotiate a great deal.
So you have a new place or dorm. It may have a bed, shelf, and desk if you are lucky. But what about a table and some chairs? A couch? TV stand? Well, you can go to the furniture store and spend hundred or thousands of dollars. Or you can go to thrift stores and yard sales and save a small fortune. Check Facebook and join the local area yard sale groups to watch for yard sales with furniture.
Chairs are just one of many pieces of furniture one can find for reasonable prices at thrift stores.
I had bought two new pieces furniture when I moved into my new home, a couch and a love seat. After 3 years they were falling apart and for the price I paid, let me say I was not happy. I decided to go and buy a cheap set at one of the discount retail store chains for a few hundred dollars. They lasted about 2 years before they were falling apart. Having decided I am not wasting any more money, I started hitting the thrift stores with my mother. We found a La-Z-Boy couch and love seat set at only $75 per piece. For $150 I just replaced the two most expensive pieces of furniture in my living room. While the design is something out of the early 1990s, it fits quite well with my decor and they are very sturdy and very comfortable.
As the start of the college year approaches it is never too early or too late to start hitting up the thrift stores to save some cash.
Remember to always thoroughly check items before purchase for any damage or issues that may affect its functionality or safety.
Good luck in your hunt for college savings. Let me know what else you shop for at thrift stores for your college dorm or housing on Twitter or Facebook. | 2019-04-18T13:14:43 | http://www.everydaythrifter.com/2017/08/10/7-things-college-students-should-buy-at-thrift-stores/ |

Many spiders have attack mechanisms to fight off predators, but some will copy other insects to survive.
Some spiders defend themselves with venom. Others simply hide in plain sight.
Researchers studied how jumping spiders use mimicry to disguise themselves as ants. While most animals mimic by altering their physical appearance, spiders do it by changing how they move.
That's because spiders are a more sought-after food than ants. But many of their predators — like some toads, lizards and wasps — have slow visual systems, so these spiders will move like ants to throw off attackers.
The arachnids' motions are pretty sophisticated, too. They will replicate winding movements like ants do when they're following pheromone trails.
They can even sell their act while standing still. When predators are around, they'll pick up their front two legs and wave them like antennae. | 2019-04-21T16:38:21 | https://www.newsy.com/stories/some-spiders-mimic-ants-to-avoid-being-eaten/ |

As a Christ-follower I understand the role spirituality plays in all dimensions of life. In fact, one of my favorite verses contains these words of Christ, "I have come that they may have life and have it to the full." (John 10:10) In order to have a full life it takes work on God's part and ours. God's virtues of grace, mercy, and unconditional love are powerful motivators for transformation. As we embrace these virtues, God empowers us to live a full life. I offer Christian counseling to individuals, couples, and/or families who value their relationship with Christ and understand that he plays a primary role in the change they seek.

As a practicing Jew I am able to offer counseling services that will align with the practice of Judaism. I am quite aware of the needs of the Orthodox community and of the importance of the concept of shalom bayis. I will help you restore that feeling through the use of standard counseling techniques. This is best done in an office situation, although it can begin online or via the telephone.
I believe that healthy relationships are at the heart of living a full life. Tending to your relationship with God, yourself and your loved ones is one of the most important journeys you can undertake. For more than 20 years I have journeyed with my clients through their grief, crises, joy and life challenges. My counseling approach can best be described as compassionate, intuitive and grounded in a deep understanding of what research and experience teach about how to approach a problem. Each client that walks into my office receives an individualized approach to addressing their concerns, not just for the session, but for a life time. I look forward to hearing from you.
Faith and a belief in God (or higher power) is important to many individuals who may be struggling in their lives. I provide counseling integrated to those for whom faith is important. In getting relief and healing from the stresses, fears, trauma or pain in your life, integration of your beliefs are a strength I can bring to counseling.

The Arches Glasgow, every Friday night for a long time... you can't beat it !!!
This is a Kraken of a tune, Duttey tech house at its best.
One of my personal classics. This is a record that will never leave my collection. Absolute monster.
DARK FORCES, arguably the best track off Slam's debut album, gets the remix treatment here, and Claude Young is on the job for a harder mix, which doesn't differ greatly melodically, but messes around with the percussion some and adds an interesting interlude. Kenny Larkin also plays with the rhythms some while maintaining the original riff, though the track shifts into its own being 1/3 of the way through. With the b-sides, "Sick Organ" offers an off-kilter tech track with plenty of angular melodies to keep the ears intrigued, while "Plastic Jazz" goes on a shiny tech-house kick. Not much jazz, but plenty of Detroitian groove.
Once you have heard Dark Forces you won't forget it. It's a deep track that is very of the period and hasn't aged the best but it never fails to bring back memories. Probobly Slam's best track after 1994 and one of Soma's least known but most unforgetable techno monsters. Minimal workhorse and good remixes. | 2019-04-26T00:23:44 | https://www.discogs.com/Slam-Dark-Forces/master/37305 |

Ahhhhh ... Sundays .... my favourite day of the week! Busy day yesterday - both little girls had dancing lessons, family lunch date, shopping, and my oldest daughter's second game of her indoor soccer playoffs (they've won both games in the playoffs so far!). I'm hoping the pace is a little slower today - one daughter is going to a birthday party, and another daughter wants to have some friends over. I think we'll make some pretty head bands with her friends. I'm also working on a new set of cootie catchers (money). I'm making a set with American coins and a set with Canadian coins.
Anyhow, I digress ... today is about math journals. I almost didn't get a math journal in this week ... almost ... but I found some time during our math block on Friday afternoon, and we spent the last 1/2 hour making a new foldable for our journals ... we were cutting it pretty close!!!
We used the same multiplication question for all the strategies (32 x 21) so students could see using various strategies will still result in the same answer.
Well, that's about it for today. I'm excited to have my Earth Day Report Card in the TPT newsletter today! Don't forget I have a 15% off sale at both my TPT store and my TN store - sale runs until tomorrow. If you get a chance, stop by my sister's blog, Meet the Dubiens. She has a FABULOUS bento box giveaway going on right now. And ... one last thing ... tomorrow is a very special day for my blog - tomorrow is my one year blogoversary. You've got to stop by and see what SURPRISE I've planned for you!
Great use of the foldable!!! So nice to break up the examples!
Love it! I always look forward to your math journal posts!
If I could have a "Do Over" for this year, it would be to do Math Journals.
We did a few, but not enough to have a routine.
Your posts have given me the inspiration to do this better next year--starting in September.
I have shared your math journal ideas with my fellow 3-5 teachers. Thanks for sharing!
DO YOU USE A BINDER WITH PAPER OR A NOTEBOOK FOR YOUR NOTEBOOKING? I AM GOING TO START DOING THIS NEXT YEAR, THANKS!
Thank-you! My students use a notebook for their math journals. I use binder paper when I made the models for the students, and I store them all in a binder so when a student is absent, he or she can borrow my model and complete their own.
I am addicted to Math journals. They truly make Math more meaningful to the students. Thank you for sharing and adding ideas to the mix. You are a Math guru!
I used your idea for the multiplication foldable with my fifth graders today. They had been having difficulty with the concept of multiplication . Your box model was a hit. I have never seen it done in this way and so when we went over it, the concept took. My kids did not want to stop doing multiplication! Thank you for sharing! | 2019-04-26T08:32:45 | http://www.rundesroom.com/2012/04/math-journal-sundays_15.html |
=The government has decided to amend its contract with Siemens to establish a wind energy stations with a capacity of 2000 MW and investments worth €2bn to operate according to the build, own, operate (BOO) system instead of the EBC Finance system.
Government sources told Daily News Egypt that the Germany company has started negotiations with the Egyptian Electricity Holding Company (EEHC) and the Egyptian Electricity Transmission Company (EETC) regarding the tariff to sell the electricity produced from the stations planned to be launched. An agreement was reached on the tariff to be less than 3.8 cents for each kWh.
The sources added that German Siemens will start implementing two phases of the projects whose capacity is estimated to be 2,000 MW, as it is establishing a station with a capacity of 180 MW in Ras Gharib, and another in Suez Gulf with capacity of 650 MW.
The sources explained that the negotiations are ongoing to purchase the energy planned to be produced with a capacity of 830 MW, in addition to discussion regarding the rest of the capacities with a capacity of 1,170 MW.
The sources said that the government has strong bonds with the German company, and the proof is the company’s responsiveness to the request of the holding company regarding amending the contractual system of the project.
Siemens has completed launching three traditional electricity plants with a capacity of 14.400 MW worth €6bn, which is a low value compared to the technology and fuel available and produced by the plants, however, the company’s desire to implement projects and cooperate with Egypt has not stood in the way of completing the contract and adhering to the timetable.
The sources expected the agreement with Siemens to be concluded and the contracts to be signed to establish the wind energy stations before the end of this year, especially that the German company has received the land and carried out studies and calculations at the location of the project in Ras Gharib and Suez Gulf.
Even though the New and Renewable Energy Authority (NREA) has sought to agree with banking bodies to manage funding the first phase of the project with 180 MW capacity and investments of €180m, the lack of liquidity in the EETC has prevented this.
The EEHC signed an agreement with Siemens in 2015 during the economic conference in Sharm El Sheikh to establish wind energy stations with capacities of 2000 MW.
Egypt is planning to generate 20% renewable energy of the total produced amounts by 2022. Egypt’s current Energy production is estimated to be 44,000 MW, including about 2,400 MW produced from water, accounting for 5.5% of the amount, in addition to 1000 MW from wind energy, and 170 MW from solar energy—an equivalent of 2.6%.
The sources pointed out that the awaited projects will be implemented with the BOO system and investors will implement and fund, and the EETC will purchase the energy produced from the project. | 2019-04-24T09:48:24 | https://dailynewsegypt.com/2018/09/23/government-modifies-contracting-system-with-siemens-to-establish-wind-energy-stations-for-e2bn/ |
Lynn Blake, left, teaches two hospital employees CPR at the VVMC Safety Fair. Blakeâs passion for educating Eagle County residents came from her own Sudden Cardiac Arrest, which a bystander provided CPR and saved her life. She was just 27 at the time.
On Valentine’s Day 2007, Lynn Blake was embarking on a new job in Vail Village when she had a rude awakening. The 27-year-old suffered sudden cardiac arrest. Fortunately for her, someone trained in CPR stepped forward and kept her heart beating until emergency personnel arrived with a defibrillator. If someone dropped in front of you unconscious, with no notable pulse, would you know what to do? Some 325,000 people die every year of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) in the United States. And, contrary to popular belief, it strikes people of all ages. “I did not know a thing about cardiac arrest. I didn’t know what it was,” Blake said. Now she knows firsthand about sudden cardiac arrest. The more she found out, the more she wondered why more people weren’t educated about SCA, the leading causes of death in the U.S. Just a few months after Blake’s sudden cardiac arrest, area pro biker Mike Janelle, in the prime of his life, died of SCA.”It’s a lot more common than people realize,” Blake said. Yet, she found, “no one’s really educating people about cardiac arrest.” That’s why she founded the Starting Hearts Foundation, partnering with the Vail Valley Medical Center and area emergency services. Starting Hearts is a non-profit dedicated to saving the lives of SCA victims, through communitywide CPR and AED (Automated External Defibrillation) education and access. “Vail Valley Medical Center embraces Lynn’s mission,” said Doris Kirchner, CEO and president of Vail Valley Medical Center. “VVMC is in the business of saving lives, and Starting Hearts can have a direct impact on that mission by engaging the community to help recognize and react to SCA appropriately.” Community key to saving lives Nearly 60 percent of cardiac arrests are witnessed. Most people know to call 911. But if that’s all you know about saving someone from SCA, the victim’s chance of surviving is slim. It is estimated 95 percent of cardiac arrest victims die before reaching a hospital if they do not receive shock treatment, such as from a defibrillator. That is why the response of bystanders is so critical to saving lives. Yet, Blake found the vast majority of people aren’t trained in CPR or using an AED. CPR classes tend to be taken only by those in jobs that demand the skill. Even if a layperson struggles to find a nearby course, it is difficult, Blake explains. Finding an AED is no easy task either. To address these issues, Starting Hearts acquired a decommissioned bus, and created the HeartRod, a mobile CPR/AED training unit, sponsored by Vail Valley Medical Center. Now, Blake, a certified instructor, travels to community events, Eagle County Schools and businesses teaching CPR and AED classes. “People aren’t going to come to me; I need to be able to go to them,” Blake said.Blake also created the event “All You Need is Heart,” which will take place on Feb. 14 at The Sebastian in Vail. The event focuses on personal heart health, including more than $1,200 worth of heart screens such as EKG’s, ultrasounds and cholesterols test. There are also feature presentations on endurance sports and the affects of high altitude, overcoming life’s challenges and savings lives in Eagle County. The event is $150 per person and is a fundraiser for Starting Hearts Foundation. Save more livesStarting Hearts will launch the ambitious “Save More Lives” campaign. “Our goal is to annually educate 25,000 people in Eagle County,” in CPR and AED, Blake said. As part of the campaign, Blake decided to apply the type of lessons every child has grasped. “If you ask anyone what to do if they catch on fire, they’d respond, ‘stop, drop and roll.’ Starting Hearts came up with a similar unforgettable message for SCA: ‘Call, push and shock.'” Dr. Lawrence Gaul is the Starting Hearts medical director. He was the cardiologist who treated Blake when she came into the Vail Valley Medical Center during her cardiac arrest episode. “It’s simple,” Gaul said, explaining Call, push and shock. “Call 911. Do rapid compressions in the middle of the chest and shock the person. When someone has a cardiac arrest the most important thing needed is shock.” That’s why, over the next year, the Save More Lives campaign will focus during on placing portable AEDs in strategic public places around Eagle County so anyone can find the nearest AED in emergencies.When Dr. Gaul traveled to Monaco for a medical conference, he was surprised to see this tiny country filled with street signs everywhere pointing to the nearest AED. By 2015, when the World Cup arrives in the Vail Valley, Dr. Gaul and Starting Hearts hope to have AEDs similarly available.To Blake, it is most rewarding when someone comes and tells her one of the classes she taught made a difference. There was the lady who took her class and was able to remove an object stuck in the throat of her choking grandchild through CPR. And the little girl who took one of her courses through the Youth Foundation and went home and practiced CPR with her family. “I encourage everyone in this community to get involved and participate in the Save More Lives campaign,” Blake said. “If everyone gets involved, we really can do it.”To participate in Save More Lives, find out about CPR and AED classes or to donate, contact Starting Hearts by emailing lynn@startinghearts.org or calling 970-331-3983. | 2019-04-24T03:57:29 | https://www.vaildaily.com/news/vail-daily-health-story-call-push-shock/ |
After many month’s living in the basement. Rebel, Zahir and Blair agreed it was time for Kalani to return to normal life. he had returned to being the fun loving happy boy he used to be. His muscles had all but retuned to realistic dimensions for his size, And due to his Mom’s healthy cooking even his Acne had cleared up.
They went down to break the good news but Kalani flat out refused to leave the safety of his cell. He was afraid to leave, he didn’t want to hurt anyone and was scared of returning to his old ways.
Zahir was Perplexed “How could he not see/feel how much he’s accomplished and how much he’s changed?” he could not sit by and watch his son wither away a prisoner to his own fears. Zahir managed to track down a highly recommended councillor and asked him to come round and talk to his son.
After explaining the Situation to Ndolo Baako he was taken into the basement to meet Kalani. | 2019-04-19T05:03:53 | https://vogellegacy.wordpress.com/i-refuse/ |

We also work with companies interested in balance sheet engineering, as well as those that want lease terms of 10-25 years while keeping control over the asset.
The convenience store (C-Store) operating model favors larger players with scale advantages, requiring operators to deploy capital to pursue growth opportunities or risk becoming acquisition targets themselves. Additionally, continual reinvestment in existing operations, through upgrades or remodeling, is critical in keeping pace with new product and service trends and presents a constant financial burden.
Our team has created a long term financial product that allows C-Store operators to source cost-effective capital without sacrificing control or causing disruption to operations. | 2019-04-21T14:06:03 | https://www.mesirowfinancial.com/markets/cmib/sale-leaseback-capital/clients-we-serve/ |
My apologies, in advance, if the title is offensive. If it is, replace the unpleasantry with the word “care,” as in “The Magic of Not Caring” But I happened to appreciate the f-word because of its shock value. It wakes me up and makes me pay attention.
Because when we don’t care about something but we pretend we do care about it, we feel obligated, put upon, frustrated, and out-of-sync with ourselves.
– I don’t care if my mother disagrees with me.
– I don’t care if my dear friend thinks I’m not spiritual enough.
– I don’t care if I disappoint a neighbor by saying no to her invitation.
– I don’t care if I offend someone when my comment was made in love/respect/curiosity, with no intention at all to offend.
– I don’t care if I don’t get it right/perfect/A+ 100% of the time.
– I don’t care if I don’t have all the answers.
The reality is, I’ve probably made up in my own head negative worrisome stories about how other people are thinking that aren’t even accurate!
– What would you like to take off of your “care” list?
– What would you be relieved to say “no thank you” to?!
– What would you do with the extra energy that comes from that sense of relief? | 2019-04-21T10:42:29 | http://www.theacademies.com/stop-caring-about-what-you-dont-care-about/ |
The New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) Program has traditionally been a successful tool for providing capital in Indian Country. However, in the last two funding cycles, no tax credit allocations were given to Native Community Development Entities. Reasons highlighted in NAFOA's Summer Policy Report include the competitive nature of the program and the lack of NMTC application reviewers who are well-versed in the complexities of Indian Country.
To ensure that tribal applicants are given a fair review process, we are encouraging individuals who are well-versed in the complexities of Indian Country to respond to the CDFI Fund's call for NMTC application reviewers for the 2014 application round.
For more information about this opportunity and to apply, please click here.
In 2000, Congress established the NMTC Program to spur new or increased investments into operating businesses and real estate projects located in low-income communities. The NMTC program has the potential to significantly increase economic growth in Indian Country by providing an incentive for external investors to provide capital, in exchange for tax credits, to tribal communities.
For any inquiries concerning the NMTC program please contact Kayla Gebeck, kayla@nafoa.org or (202)770-8321. | 2019-04-20T02:47:21 | https://nafoa.org/broadcasts/cdfi-call-for-new-markets-tax-credit-application-reviewers |
Academic life can genuinely help you on your way to success. While some may be skeptical, college actually prepares fresh graduates to be career-ready.
Consider yourself lucky if you have faculty members and mentors who are great teachers and have life lessons to offer. If you are able to secure a good working relationship with your superiors or managers as you go down your career path, you can expect to increase your learning, develop useful skills and be more confident at work.
It is best to start building your network while in college—You never know when you might need reference-worthy connections. Build genuine, positive connections. Having strong references will help you stand out among other applicants.
As you apply for jobs, when listing references, make sure your references know you well. The inquiring party should know not only about the basics of your work, but also your drive, attitude, personality, ethics and abilities. You’ll have a clear advantage if a manager or mentor goes the extra mile to endorse you.
As in college, the workplace, or in life, it can take a long time to establish your reputation and show what you have to offer. As long as you know the value of consistent effort, you can be confident when you apply the same virtues as you go about building your career. The right work ethic will lead to good returns.
As you move forward, find mentors, build a network, allow yourself to grow professionally, and enjoy new opportunities as they come. | 2019-04-18T20:47:31 | https://www.interviewsuccessformula.com/job-search-advice/how-college-prepares-you-for-the-real-world.php |
One of the exhaust system improvements that can be performed on your Armadale HONDA is exhaust extractors. Extractors allow your car's engine to run more efficiently by allowing the exhaust gases to be pushed out more easily. This HONDA performance exhaust system upgrade will result in up to 15% better fuel economy, increased horsepower, increased torque and a cooler and cleaner running engine.
The combustion process of a petrol engine is never perfect. Dangerous gases, such as nitrogen oxide, carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons will arise and it is the job of the catalytic converter to reduce these to safer emissions. These cat converters can fail by becoming clogged, or if the engine has bad exhaust valves or the plugs fail, causing unburned fuel to overheat the converter. Mettam's Mufflers can resolve these issues with your Armadale HONDA by replacing your damaged or clogged cat converter with a standard or hi-flow cat converter in under 1 hour.
Two examples of accessories that Mettam's Muffler's can provide to your Armadale HONDA are stainless steel mufflers and stainless steel tips and chrome ends. These products can add a distinct sound and look to every car.
Mettam's Mufflers are located in three convenient locations and can fit your Armadale HONDA's Performance Exhaust Systems. | 2019-04-21T20:39:33 | https://www.performance-exhausts.com.au/viewStory/honda-performance-exhaust-armadale-perth |
The French Senate, in partnership with ESA, is holding a colloquium on the subject of "Satellites and Bridging the Digital Divide". The gathering will evaluate the potential role of satellite systems in achieving nationwide digital access. European attempts to date to achieve that goal will also be assessed.Bridging the digital divide is a challenge that has to be addressed for the future development of Europe's regions. For citizens isolated by natural obstacles, those living in scattered rural communities or on the outlying periphery of the European Union, there has been no commercially-viable solution to bring them online. Moreover, the arrival of ten new EU member countries will perhaps increase the current inequality of digital access.
The colloquium will address the question of: "Can space-based infrastructures provide the most appropriate solution to narrow the gap?" Terrestrial infrastructures, for example, are affected by population density or low-level economic activity. Satellite systems, however, guarantee uniform coverage over a given area; within this area, all potential users enjoy the same access to services and the same quality of service. TV broadcasting is a practical illustration of this.
It is therefore important to determine if the satellite option can provide a technically appropriate response. Because most digitally-deprived localities tend also to be the least densely populated issues related to how this should be financed become highly relevant. However, it remains to be seen if a third component needs to be added to European strategy for space (the others are Galileo and GMES) to deal effectively with issues surrounding the digital divide. The colloquium should clarify many of these questions.
The colloquium will be on 22 January 2004 at the French Senate (Palais du Luxembourg) in Paris France. | 2019-04-21T04:39:30 | https://artes.esa.int/news/french-senate-and-esa-organise-colloquium-bridging-digital-divide |

St Abbs Lifeboat is delighted to announce that an approach has been received from leading Scottish Company Thomas Tunnock & Sons Ltd. “Tunnocks” involving a new Lifeboat at St Abbs Berwickshire.
It is expected that this will lead to the completion of Stage 1 of the Appeal launched in early Autumn 2015 and enable the resumption of Lifeboat operations at St Abbs in 2016.
The public appeal for a new Lifeboat at St Abbs has already got off to a flying start and the campaign will remain in full swing with a Stage 2 objective of raising a further £250k to provide long term financial support for the St Abbs lifeboat station.
“This is a highly significant development and the emergence of Tunnocks as a major donor has unanimous support from the Community of St Abbs. On behalf of the St Abbs Community I would like to express my sincere gratitude not only to Tunnocks, but also to all our other donations both big and small. | 2019-04-22T13:02:42 | http://www.stabbslifeboat.org.uk/press-release-thomas-tunnock-sons-ltd/ |

While Jeff Bezos was caught red-handed flashing around some random stuff last year, tax dollars from his multi-billionaire dollar Amazon empire weren’t among the booty.
Despite posting profits of over $11 billion last year, the online shopping empire didn’t pay a single penny in federal taxes in 2018. Thanks to the company’s busy bookkeepers, it found clever ways of actually getting a federal income tax rebate of $129 million, which essentially means Uncle Sam dropped a maraschino cherry on top of Amazon’s massive cash slushie.
Meanwhile, Jeff Bezos, the founder and CEO of Amazon who once earned more on his lunch break than some countries earn in months, has been crowned the wealthiest person on the planet. Last year, his net worth smashed $150 billion – some $50 billion more than Microsoft’s CEO runner-up Bill Gates.
So, as average Americans prepare for the annual ritual of mailing their tax returns by the April 15 deadline, many do so in the knowledge that they will owe Uncle Sam some money. Behemoth companies like Amazon, however, rarely have such worries. They have the means to avoid paying what many believe are their rightful dues. This was not the way things were supposed to be.
In 2017, Donald Trump, in one of his first acts as president, signed the so-called Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which reduced the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent.
Proponents of the legislation, underestimating the pervasive allure of greed, believed this reduction would make corporations more willing to crack open their purses and contribute their fair share to the tax load. Obviously, the plan backfired.
The new tax law “failed to broaden the tax base or close a slew of tax loopholes that allow profitable companies to routinely avoid paying federal and state income taxes on almost half of their profits,”according to the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP). | 2019-04-22T10:39:41 | https://qoshe.com/rt-com/robert-bridge/don-t-forget-to-file-your-taxes-america-becaus/28300295 |
Australia Sports Minister Katy Lundy says silver is the new gold for her country and concedes defeat in a bet which will see her don a Team GB shirt at the rowing venue.
LONDON, ENGLAND, UNITED KINGDOM (AUGUST 7, 2012) (ITN) - Australia Sports Minister Katy Lundy said on Tuesday (August 7) that silver is the new gold for her country and admitted that old rivals Britain have been far superior.
Britain sit third in the table with 22 gold medals while Australia are enduring one of their worst Olympics and languish in 13th place with three golds.
The 410-strong Australia team had come to London hoping to spoil Britain's party, continuing the fierce sporting rivalry between the two countries that goes back over a century.
Lundy believes Australia still has a lot to celebrate with their three gold, 12 silver and nine bronze.
"I think we're all celebrating a bag full of silver and Australians would love to see more gold but it's not taking away for one second the efforts of our athletes and so many of our gold we've conceded to British athletes just, you know, that last millimetre or last millisecond," Lundy told a British reporter.
"So Silver is the new gold and look we've got to hand it to you (Britain), you're having a great Games."
Australia's flop in London has sparked calls for an inquest and swimming officials have ordered an independent review into the team's poor showing.
Australia's swimmers have always done better than expected at the Olympics but have come under fierce criticism at home because they only won one gold, their lowest haul since the Barcelona Olympics, 20 years ago.
Australia should make it four golds on Tuesday evening with the IAAF female athlete of the year Sally Pearson looking to win the women's 100 metres hurdles title and there are hopes in the sailing. | 2019-04-18T12:19:27 | http://sport.mpelembe.net/home/silver-is-the-new-gold-for-australia-says-minister |

Have you ever had a friend, family member, or partner who seems to always pull you back into their lives, even after emotional or social conflict? Does this person always seem to charm everyone despite their selfish tendencies? Chances are that you’ve found yourself the victim of Narcissistic Hoovering.
If the term “hoovering” brings a vacuum cleaner to mind, then you’re on the right track. The term ‘hoovering’ was coined after a popular brand of vacuum cleaner due to the nature of this psychological ploy mimicking the sucking action. While a common trait for narcissists, the tactic of “hoovering” is used by a number of personality types, particularly those with manipulative tendencies or a complete disregard for the disruption they cause in other’s lives.
While the cycle itself tends to be fairly common the tactic of “hoovering” can come into play once a discarding phase has occurred. Narcissists who struggle to find a new source of personal service from another individual and those that create a repetitive cycle through a select social group will often employ the hoovering tactic in order to lure another victim into their web of manipulation and destruction. Any time a narcissist begins to feel the need, he or she can and will often return to previous sources of narcissist supply in order to achieve their desires.
Narcissists are, by nature, individuals with a higher presence of controlling tendencies. Hoovering allows the narcissist to utilize their exceptional skills of manipulation in order to achieve the goal of controlling another person’s presence in their own lives. It also allows them to feel as though they have the ultimate control over their target.
During the hoovering phase, the narcissist will go to any length, explore any opportunity, and exploit any weakness over their target, manipulating their goals, hopes, dreams, desires, and insecurities in order to establish a sense of dominating control.
Opportunity – Maybe you have decided to completely disengage from the narcissist in your life, cutting them out from every possible opportunity to be involved. To some narcissists, this is simply seen as a challenge of their superiority and they will look for any angle open to worm their way back into your life. Often, their goal is simply to see if you are still an option for their own fulfillment. This can begin with something as simple as an accidental run-in at a local coffee shop, a Facebook message saying hello, or even a surprise visit at your home.
Whispers of sweet nothings – For some narcissists, if even the slightest glimmer of hope is perceived, the narcissist will turn on their wit and charm to try to persuade you into believing that he or she has changed their ways. They may shower you with compliments or tell you how perfect and wonderful you are. They may buy you sweet gifts and engage in random acts of kindness towards you. This is one of the popular techniques used by narcissists to work their way back into the lives of someone they have hurt.
Downright Rude – Other narcissists may look for opportunities to devalue you to the point that you believe that you are lucky they even speak to you. This is a tactic used often by narcissists as it allows them to simultaneously establish their own superiority while also working to manipulate you into believing that you don’t deserve them and should be grateful for their concern, criticism, or care. They may spread rumors about you to your shared friends or send incriminating photos of you to explicit websites. In this tactic, the narcissist will take advantage of their knowledge about you to try and destroy your entire life, inside and out.
The ultimate combo– Still there are narcissists who choose a different approach to bringing you back into their abuse. In many cases, the narcissist will use a combination of all three of the previously mentioned tactics in an order that allows them the fullest extent of control possible over their target. They may begin by exploring opportunity, then moving into the sweet nothings phase before taking over and completely devaluing you once again, to increase their overinflated ego and crush your self-worth and will to leave them.
Whatever tactic or combination of tactics the narcissist chooses for the hoovering phase, their aim is to convince their target that they are now the person they should be, leading room for their target to have hope or belief that they can be together again. More often than not, however, this is simply a ploy to use up whatever energy their target is willing to give to them once again.
Reaching out in order to ask for help with a work project, house project or a variety of favors.
Showing up at places you frequent that they normally don’t.
Befriending your friends that they weren’t friends with during the relationship.
Buying gifts and other random acts of kindness.
Any action that attempts to ‘reopen communication’ may be hoovering.
*It’s important to note that when some relationships end that these behaviors may be common among people even without narcissist personality disorder being present.
Despite their charm and seemingly good intentions, most narcissists are simply uninterested in finding ways to establish or maintain any form of intimacy, whether romantic or simply social interactions. Narcissists are self-serving and everything they do is only to benefit themselves and their own desires.
Avoid. Block. Run. – The only sure way to avoid being the target or victim of narcissistic hoovering is to simply establish a no frills, no exceptions policy for the narcissist in your life. Once you have left the situation, take any means necessary to get them out of your life permanently. Change your gym or gym time, block them on all social media, delete and block them from your phone and email, and avoid going to places that you know they frequent (going no contact). The more you lessen the chances of running into them or receiving that seemingly innocent hello, the less you risk becoming a narcissistic hoovering victim. | 2019-04-19T18:20:20 | https://mindcology.com/narcissist/narcissistic-hoovering/ |
Sports Academy has found “The Mamba Mentality.” The 96,000-square-foot training facility in Thousand Oaks announced a partnership with Kobe Bryant.
The 96,000-square-foot holistic athletic training facility in Thousand Oaks announced a partnership with former Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant on Monday morning.
The deal includes rebranding the 2-year-old facility MAMBA Sports Academy and a new logo.
The deal was announced Monday with a minute-long video in which Bryant described Sports Academy as a place "where we evolve and have fun."
"This is where we become better members of our team, our family and our community," Bryant said, "and ultimately, the best version of ourselves."
With the Conejo Valley Unified School District closed last month due to the Hill and Woolsey fires, Sports Academy opened its doors to the community, providing a "safe haven" for displaced children.
Opened in 2016 by Chad Faulkner, Sports Academy has everything from basketball and volleyball courts to a sports medicine practice to an Esports training ground and yoga studio on its six-center facility off of Ventu Park Road.
Everyone from local children on a break from school to Los Angeles Rams players like Todd Gurley have used the facility in its short history.
Before he was a Los Angeles Laker, Lebron James joined Kevin Durant and Paul George to watch a youth basketball event at Sports Academy last year.
Bryant, who lives in the Orange County, was also introduced to the facility through youth basketball.
Bryant published a coffee table book, “Mamba Mentality: How I Play,” earlier this fall.
The five-time NBA champion retired in 2016 as the NBA’s third all-time leading scorer. The Lakers retired his Nos. 8 and 24 last year.
Bryant won an Academy Award earlier this year for his “Kobe Bryant’s Muse” documentary film. He also has other projects on the new ESPN+ platform. | 2019-04-23T10:51:15 | https://www.vcstar.com/story/sports/2018/12/03/sports-academy-announces-partnership-former-kobe-bryant/2194961002/ |

Users who participated in our research for mydeco.com were asked to think about a room that they wanted to revamp where they normally relax. They were then asked to find a lighting item that they would like to buy from the website.
Users were immediately drawn to the large panel in the central section of the homepage. Some used this area as general navigation and missed the primary navigation at the top of the page. The effect of this was that these users missed some of the lighting products that were available to them, because this graphic was targeted to a certain type of product.
There was a mix of how users chose to navigate from the home page. There was a split between users clicking on to the main graphic, the primary navigation and the search box. When conducting a general search from the site search box, one user started typing in the search term ‘lights’. A drop down list of search suggestions appear in the search box but they were rather abstract for this particular user who chose ‘lights fantastic’ and was confused by the wording displayed to him.
Users did not play with the filters on the left hand side of the page. For lighting, users were more interested in the style of the item and were drawn to each product photograph to make their decision. Users looked at the brand names underneath the photographs and spent more time looking at the brands that they failed to recognise.
Once a user had found a product that they wanted to purchase they were re-directed to the retailer’s website. This was very slow for some users and they abandoned their journey. Users were shown a re-direction page that contained information regarding why they should shop with mydeco.com. Users stared at one bullet point that said ‘shop in your jimjams’. The actual word and the tone of the sentence was so different from what they were expecting to see that it caused users to look at it for longer than they might otherwise have done. | 2019-04-24T20:46:45 | https://www.simpleusability.com/inspiration/2009/05/mydeco-eye-tracking/ |

An international team of scientists from Oxford University, UK, and Tel-Hai College, Israel, has shown that pea plants can demonstrate sensitivity to risk – namely, that they can make adaptive choices that take into account environmental variance, an ability previously unknown outside the animal kingdom.
In a preliminary experiment, the researchers showed that the plants grew more roots in a pot endowed with higher levels of nutrients – an adaptive response similar to animals allocating greater foraging effort to richer food patches. In a series of follow-up experiments, they then split the roots of each plant between two pots that had equal average nutrient concentrations, but where one pot had a constant level and the other a variable level, asking whether plants would ‘prefer’ to grow more roots in one or the other.
This is because when the average nutrient level is below what is required for the plant to thrive, the variable option at least offers the chance to ‘gamble’ on a run of good luck. On the other hand, when average conditions are good, it makes sense to take the safe option.
Co-author Professor Alex Kacelnik, of the Department of Zoology at Oxford University, said: ‘To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of an adaptive response to risk in an organism without a nervous system. We do not conclude that plants are intelligent in the sense used for humans or other animals, but rather that complex and interesting behaviours can theoretically be predicted as biological adaptations – and executed by organisms – on the basis of processes evolved to exploit natural opportunities efficiently.
A human example illustrates the problem facing the pea plants: if you have a choice between a guaranteed $800, or tossing a coin to receive $1,000 for heads and nothing for tails, which one should you choose? Most people realise that the first option pays more on average. But imagine you are stranded with no money in a remote place, the fare to get home costs $900, and you are allowed a single toss of the coin. Now the coin-toss gives you an even chance of raising the funds you need, whereas the ‘safe’ option will always fall just short.
The pea plants were ‘risk prone’, meaning they grew more roots in the unpredictable pot, when the mean nutrient concentration of both pots was below 0.01g/L. They were ‘risk averse’, meaning they grew more roots in the constant pot, when the mean nutrient concentration was 0.15g/L or higher.

Design one or more cards that meet the design constraint described below to win prizes! You may submit multiple entries, but please be considerate of your fellow players and don't go too overboard. In the case of multiple entries, you will still receive one prize at most.
Since the events "(f)Easter" and "April Fool's Day" fall on the same day this year please design a card that works together with any of the Feast of Abundance Cards and embodies April fool's day.
Don't forget to name the card you are supporting with your card.
there are very few Feast of Abundance cards and this is open enough that you really shouldn't need these. Don't be afraid to revisit cards already picked up by other competitors to add your own spin to them. Should the next one get revealed while this contest is running (i hope so) you can use that one, too.
1: Conciseness - One of the main reasons many of the cards didn't take in the "It's your Card" Thread - try to be concise - during the Dev Stream they talked about "less than 7 lines of text on cards"
The post was edited 1 time, last by SlayerStronghold: added prizes ( Mar 27th 2018, 12:40pm ).
Deploy - Five random cards in opposing champion's deck or hand secretly get "When you play this, interrupt it. Summon a Llama."
"The boonberries have slightly different traditions for the feast of abundance"
Your Prankster Plums instead have "When you play this, interrupt it. Summon a Llama. Then, create a Prankster Plums and put it in the opposing champion's hand."
Your Prankster Plums have 'when this is discarded or buried, play it for free'.
Ability: Escalate: Conscript 1 card that was released during a holiday event.
Equipment for Feet: Artificial Nature - Add 10 shards to your deck when an Egg of Growth's effect activates with no shards in your deck after the first time you play Hodgepodge Effort.
Equipment for Head: Replant Calculations - Add all Symeon's Bounties in your crypt and void to your deck when you play a Fruit of Symeon after the first time you play Hodgepodge Effort.
Deploy: Create 4 EggFruit and put them into your deck.
: Create 2 EggFruit and put them into your deck.
When this enters your hand, play this for free.
Deploy: This transforms into a Snack Pack, Snack Attack, or Attack Pack at random.
You gain 2 health for each EggFruit played this game.
Deal 1 damage to target troop or champion for each EggFruit played this game.
Deploy: This gets +1 /+1 for each EggFruit played this game.
For Attack Pack, I'm drawing inspiration from the egg with claws and eyes in a basket as seen on the 2017 Feast of Abundance sleeve.
Your EggFruits instead have "Deploy: This transforms into two of the following at random: Snack Pack, Snack Attack, or Attack Pack."
"Deploy: Create 8 EggFruit and put them into your deck. Draw a card.
: Create 4 EggFruit and put them into your deck. Draw a card."
Edit: Whoops. Design constraint of working with an existing Feast of Abundance Card.
Replace 2 Fruit of Symeon in your deck with Present.
"How did the fruit have a robot in it?"

Shall you be a fool ?
Escalation - Put 1 random Feaster curse into the opposing champion deck and then bury 1 card from opposing champion deck.
"Fool or not a fool ?, we shall see!"
When this enters your hand or crypt, put the top card of your deck into that zone. Void this.
Summon a copy of every Feaster egg control by each opposing champion under that champion's control. If an opposing champion don't have any Feaster egg under their control, summon 2 random Feaster egg under that champion's control.
Create a copy for each Fruit of Symeon in the opposing champion deck and put them into their deck. If there is no Fruit of Symeon in the opposing champion deck, create 2 Fruit of Symeon and put them into their deck.
When this enters your crypt, lose 1 health and put the top card of your deck into that zone. Void this.
Your Shall you be a fool ? instead have: Escalation - Put 2 random fool's curse into the enemy deck and then bury 2 card from opposing champion deck.
Double all numerical value of each Feaster curse.
The card can support itself or boost both the "Egg Hunt" or "Symeon's Bounty" Feaster card.
Feaster curse doesn't escalate, their number are bold only to show which value are double by the equipment.

: A random opposing troop secretly gets "When this exhausts, revert and transform it into a Dingler. Revert it again at the start of your turn."
This is generally a playful and foolish card, but it plays particularly well with Blindside as the Prankster exhausts at quick speed and is good with repeated use.
X times: A random opposing troop battles a random troop you control.
This card is fun and interesting, but bonkers when paired with the new Beast of Abundance. The X let's you Rowdy it up as you wish. The battles make the Beast useful before he's had enough to eat.

While the Vennen have been moving away from putting Eggs into decks, seeing my deck get filled with spiderling eggs always filled me with dread.
So here's a card that lets you make a fool of Spiderling decks (and really any other opponent that is putting banes into your deck). In addition, being quick means you can respond to an instance of an opponent putting cards into your deck. And if your opponent isn't cooperating by creating cards, you can always do so yourself, such as with Symeon's Bounty, the Cleric champion's ability, etc. Lastly, the Fingerpainters equipment works particularly well with Egg Hunt finally giving you the cards to play with all of those wild shards you are getting.
Whenever a card is created and put into your deck, transform the created card into a random Feaster Egg.
"Silly Vennen. Their eggs are are so gross and icky. They really should try painting them with rainbows."
Your Egg Painters have "Deploy - Transform each bane in your deck into a random Feaster Egg."
When a Feaster Egg enters play, summon a Fool's Egg for each opposing champion.
When you play a Fruit of Symeon, put between 1 and 3 Fool's Eggs in each opposing champion's deck.
When this enters your hand, play it for free.
Draw 1-3 cards and transform all drawn cards into random cards of a different shard.
Lose 1 Charge and 1 Temporary Resource.
Lose 1-3 Health. For each health you lose this way, discard a card at random.
Obviously, this synergizes with Symeon's Bounty and Egg Hunt.
Since I didn't actually properly read the design constraint for my first entry, let's make a better one.
Create five 'Planted Evidence' in each opposing champion's deck.
Exhaust this -> Choose one at random: A random opposing troop gets -1/-1 and gets stunned, or create 3 feaster eggs and put them into your deck, or summon a random feaster egg.
This one supports Egg Hunt, and is based off the alternate artwork of Sylvan Springs, where I think Timophy can be seen stealing someone's underwear. The thematic idea is that, as a prank, he plants the evidence with the opposing champion, victim finds out, and starts tossing eggs with minimal accuracy!

Deploy - Summon 2 Cheery Songbird.
All Cheery Songbird you control gain .
At the start of your turn, one random Cheery Songbird you control gains until the end of the turn.
"Welcome to the Birdemic ya bird brains!"
Your Bag O' Birds instead have, "Deploy - Summon 3 Cheery Songbird."
Your Bag O' Birds gain, " : When a Cheery Songbird deals combat damage to an opposing champion, you may sacrifice this constant to create 2 Bag O' Birds and put them into your hand.
This constant focuses on using Cheery Songbirds for offensive play. The buff on a buffed songbird will trigger the effects of the other songbirds. Equipping the Birdseed Maracas add in a lethal tempo to your birds, gradually increasing the size of their party. Also, Tealwing is best bird husbando.
Edit: Edited the theme to be around the (bad) Birdemic movie for a comedy holiday.

Transform target Feaster Egg you control into a random Trickster Egg and put it under target opponent champion's control.
"Happy Feaster Fool's Day! Hehehehe...."
Invisible Prankster's Cloak(Chest): Your Feaster Tricksters instead have: Transform up to 3 Feaster Eggs.
Balloon "10 Tons" Hammer(Weapon): Your Feaster Tricksters have : When a Feaster Egg enters play under your control, ready this.
At the start of your turn sacrifise this. Stun a random troop you control.
At the start of your turn sacrifice this.Transform a random troop you control into a Dingler. It gets "At the start of your turn, revert this."
At the start of your turn sacrifice this. Add 3 Burning Counters yourself.
At the start of your turn sacrifice this. Discard a random card.
At the end of every turn, move each Fruit of Symeon and Symeon's Bounty in your deck up five spaces. Then, look at the top three cards of your deck. Put a revealed Fruit of Symeon or Symeon's Bounty into your hand.
"The Shin'hare offered spoils from their Spring harvest to Oinkers in the form of wine and fruit, then slaughtered fattened swine to use as the centerpiece for their Feast of Abundance."
Unbuckeled Belt (Trinket) (Rare)- When you play Fruit of Symeon, put it back into your deck instead of voiding it.
Second Helping (Head) (Legendary)- When you play Fruit of Symeon, if you already played Fruit of Symeon this turn, add a dazed counter to the opposing champion.
Questions about entries and one day before the end of the contest warning. YOU can still add entries!
if this wasn't an action with a deploy trigger this would work well together with Symeon's Bounty's additional draws.
slightly over-designed and each of them is on the limit of the conciseness restraint. Otherwise fine.
your generated card is slightly too wordy, i would need to deduct points for not being concise.
How does this support Egg Hunt? All i see is a troop that wants to use it's ability.
Any card i have not mentioned in this post is within the design constraints.
I will start judging in 24h 9min from this post.
It's equally wordy to the cards its based off of.
Fruit of Symeon, for example, has virtually identical text(slightly different effects but the same concept), except it is an action so it doesn't come into play. I suppose I could make these actions, but that removes the tie to the feaster eggs.
I could've split it into 3 different fool's eggs, but that felt unnecessary for the card.
Being concise is one of the judging criteria.
But again. 5 lines of text, to provide an opposite component to the five lines of text on the card it's mirroring.
It would make the card fit less if I were to remove text from it. I'm not denying it's a large card, but if you have a card that is based off of a large card that is trying to provide almost a 'mirror' to the large card... it makes sense for it to be a large card. And it doesn't cross the '7 lines of text' threshold that is the soft limit for a Hex card.
I'm just explaining WHY I did it the way I did, I can't change the way you judge it, but I'm not going to ruin the thematics or effectiveness of the card simply to make it concise. If you choose to hold that against me, it's your contest and that's completely fair.

This entry is no longer relevant, as I made a new one that better fits the design constraint.
That said, the Prankster Plums play an April Fool's prank on the enemy champion by boobytrapping their cards. That's the April Fool's link.
When this exhausts for the first time each turn, ready Debon'hare and each troop that exhausted at the same time.
I don't like cards that are too narrow, so ideally, I've worded this ability so that it would trigger on a normal attack.
- Lovers' link (trinket)If exactly one other troop exhausts when Debon'hare exhausts, summon a Battle Hopper.
- "Best Dad" mug (weapon)If exactly two other troops exhaust when Debon'hare exhausts, those troops and Debon'hare all get +1/+1.
1: concise - The created card is too wordy, otherwise fine.
2: Theme: April Fool's - A fowl that is a fool, i guess.
2: Theme: April Fool's - barely. Grifting is not something that happens on this day more often than usual... unless you meant to use graft, in which case it would have failed the theme.
3: Synergy - would work nicely to remove the surplus fruits before decking you.
2: Theme: April Fool's - what exactly is a prank-fest? at least it has prank in the name.
3: Synergy - Best synergy. not only does it work extremely well, it also isn't useless on it's own.
2: Theme: April Fool's - an evil prank to play on someone, but then - they are shin'hare.
3: Synergy - Works extremely well with Symeon's bounty.
2: Theme: April Fool's - He pranks people by turning them into dinglers.
3: Synergy - yes, readying after exhaust effects is useful. Could be improved, though.
2: Theme: April Fool's - putting birds into bags definitely fits.

It’s not always our choice as children to be emotional deprived, which is the feeling that we’re not loved enough or are important enough, which can persist into our adult lives. This results in having a mindset of scarcity. This is the feeling, that we never have enough of the things that we want or need more of. That we’re always lacking.
What this sense of insecurity does, is it harms our closest relationships, as what we’re expecting is that they’ll let us down somehow. We never express our needs directly to them, while also avoiding intimacy. We feel deprived of emotions such as love, time, or money.
We act as if we’re constantly in panic mode, as we penny pinch even if we don’t need to. We’ll schedule every moment of our day. These are the thoughts of having a scarcity mindset. That things will get worse, rather than get better.
You wake up, get of out bed and instantly feel that you don’t have enough time. You wake up feeling you didn’t get enough sleep, and then deprive yourself of all the important things that you needed to do that day.
You’re bad at time management. You then have no idea how the days, weeks, and years of your life have slipped away so fast. You over schedule appointments, while spending too much time changing them. You’re always late paying your bills.
You think you’re losing it, but you’re just incompetent at managing time. These issues fall under the laws of scarcity. It’s found that those living with limited resources, who are poor, are more likely to make these types of bad decisions.
This occurs especially when it comes to money and relationship issues. It’s found to be instinctive and not always their fault, as that’s how the brain responds to scarcity.
Once we develop a mindset of scarcity, what doing so does is it narrows down our time frame, which causes us to make short term erratic decisions, which are usually impulsive.
Doing so throws our long-term goals in disarray, such as we’ll delay paying our credit card bills, hoping that they’ll disappear, or not answer the phone thinking it’s bad news.
Farmers who have a scarcity mindset, will become stressed when planting their seeds, but will relax once they’ve had a successful harvest. They become short on money, constantly worry about the weather, and worry about the market conditions.
Once someone is forced to deal with extremely limited resources, what that does is it increases the problems and the barriers that they need to deal with, which results in mental fatigue.
Those who are constantly deprived of what they want, develops an unhealthy obsession of overvaluing the things they don’t have. The nature of scarcity itself, however, impedes our efforts of coping.
The stress and the anxiety that’s associated with scarcity, interferes with our motivation, which causes us to become more vulnerable towards temptation.
This is the reason why some will purchase items on sale, even if they don’t need it. This can occur right after an emotional period such as the holidays, when they can’t really afford it.
The reason for this, is because of scarcity thinking. We think that we’re unable to resist the limited time of the sale, which the marketers prey on.
Those who are alone, will often see themselves and others in a more negative pessimistic light. They may avoid joining social gatherings and activities, based on the fear of rejection.
So how can we correct living in this scarcity mindset, while not becoming overly complacent. To feel more comfortable at the various levels of scarcity, and not feel deprived.
• Practice Gratitude – Always focus on what’s currently good about your life, which includes all those who support you. The community you live in, and your healthy active lifestyle. What doing so does, is it takes the focus off scarcity, such as time and money.
• Never Compare Yourself To Others – You’ll always meet someone who’s better than you. They will have more money, time, or possessions than you. You may then feel a tinge of envy. But in reality, you have no idea what it’s like to be them.
So never compare how you’re feeling inside, to how someone appears to be physically. What your struggles have created, are internal strengths that you don’t completely appreciate.
Breaking away from this cycle, requires plenty of preparation and effort. Create a plan so you won’t catch yourself ruminating. What getting active does, is it activates the left hemisphere of the brain, which avoids moodiness and depression.
So instead, decide to go for a walk or a run. Call someone. Tidy up your closet or garage, wash your car, or read a good book. Just keep busy.
• Take Precautionary Measures – Make a grocery list whenever you go to the supermarket and stick to it, so you won’t impulse buy.
Set up prepayment withdrawals for all your bills to be automatically withdrawn from your bank account. Leave your credit card at home. Remove all the sweets and refined sugar products from your home.
• Never Become Greedy – Whenever there’s a feeling that resources are becoming scarce, what most will do is get competitive with each other. This since they believe that if someone else gets more, that they’ll get less.
Once you decide to help someone grow their business for instance, they may in return be more than willing to refer new business to you.
Being helpful towards others, leads to gaining greater respect and reputation, which develops deeper relationships, while creating exchange and making new allies. | 2019-04-25T14:03:05 | https://reviewon.com/the-self-defeating-consequences-when-reacting-to-the-scarcity-mindset.html |

At Precision Chiropractic, we are focused on providing you with a unique experience. In our office, you are not “just another number” or “just another case”, and we believe that you deserve something different.
This is why we provide you with a complimentary consultation , which is a conversation with the doctor designed to answer any questions you may have about your health concerns and our practice. Following the complimentary consultation, you will have the opportunity to schedule a comprehensive Tonal Chiropractic Examination either immediately afterwards, or at a later date of your choice. Unlike some other Chiropractic offices where the exam is just a formality, done in under 10 minutes, and often by someone other than the doctor, this thorough exam will be performed by one of our doctors to identify the presence and/or nature of your Tonal Shift(s) and your current state of health.
After the examination, our doctors will create an individualized, comprehensive plan based on your/your child’s objective clinical findings. These findings will be reviewed, in detail, at a patient recommendation conference (PRC), providing you with an opportunity to ask questions and understand more about your/your child’s underlying condition. In addition to helping you feel better, it is our goal to help your body function at its optimum potential, allowing you to become the best version of yourself. | 2019-04-24T08:49:49 | http://precisionchiroga.com/whats-the-first-step/ |

My little 4 year old has been begging me non-stop to make pigs-in-a-blanket. To which I normally would insert a nasty-face emoji. I REALLY don’t like those cresent rolls in a can and hot dogs. But he asked every single day, a few times a pigs in a blanket. We chose to make them homemade. Homemade dough, our choice of healthy organic hotdogs, and a homemade pigs-in-a-blanket sauce! Gah. They are SO SO good and ridiculously easy. They will be out of the oven within 30 minutes.
Start by making your dough, it does NOT need to rise. hallelujah. I don’t have time for rising bread these days.
Get your kids involved! They love this part.
Roll up and place on parchment paper. and BAKE!
When the pigs-in-a-blanket come out of the oven all hot and steamy brush a tiny bit of melted butter over tops.
I know, this sounds silly, even once you know whats in the sauce you might smirk, but I’m telling you. The warm bread, garlicy hot dog with the this creamy tangy sauce is heaven! DON’T leave it out.
All my kids LOVE this meal! Especially little pigs-in-a-blanket. I like to serve along side some fresh fruit- like this cucumber melon salad, or this rainbow quinoa salad.
These little guys are also PERFECT little finger foods and travel so well. Pack them up for a picnic, to the beach, or send the kids out side on the patio to eat. No need for utensils and lots of dishes. OR serve them as snack or appetizer for when friends are over. They bake up so fast and everyone will love them.
These little guys are also PERFECT little finger foods and travel so well. Pack them up for a picnic, to the beach, or send the kids out side on the patio to eat. No need for utensils and lots of dishes.
Combine 1/2 cups of flour and remaining ingredients, putting yeast in LAST.
Mix all ingredients until well blended and sticky. Slowly adding flour until dough forms a ball and pulls away from the side of the mixer.
Flour a surface and roll out dough into about a 9x13 rectangle. (See pictures in post for detailed instructions) using a pizza cutter, cut into triangles.
Place hot dog or little smokey at large side of triangle and roll up.
Bake in oven at 425 for about 15-20 minutes. with about 5 minutes left, brush melted butter on tops to help create a nice golden brown top.
the butter at the end did it for me- thank you for this sweet tip!! | 2019-04-19T16:46:37 | https://ohsodelicioso.com/pigs-in-a-blanket-boon/ |
Hole number 8 is played as both a par 4 at 372 yards or a par 5 at 459 yards. In either case, the yardage is deceptive in that it actually plays longer because it is entirely uphill. A well struck drive, will at most, run for perhaps three to four yards and at times not even that. Whether played as a par four or five it is best to place your drive from center to left side of the fairway. The putting surface is guarded on either side by bunkers. | 2019-04-20T12:39:40 | http://neillsvillecc.com/hole8.html |
Barcelona was the Spanish hometown of Juan Antonio Samaranch, the President of the International Olympic Committee. He had been elected President of the IOC only days before the tragic Munich Games of 1972; in the 20 years since he had seen television and sponsor budgets balloon and the Games reach a once unimagined global TV audience. It was the first Games in a while not blemished by boycotts, leading to a record 172 nations participating.
From the spectacular Opening Ceremony, highlighted when the Olympic flame was lit by a flaming arrow fired by a Spanish archer, Antonio Rebollo, Barcelona was a visually spectacular Games. Images such as China’s tiny teenage diving sensation, Fu Mingxia, launching herself from the 10m platform with the city skyline as a backdrop, made for a visual feast. Fu, just 13, led a strong Chinese diving team that won three of four possible gold medals.
This was a Games that reflected the changing face of world politics, especially in Europe. The Communist Bloc had crumbled; the Iron Curtain and the Berlin Wall had been destroyed. The new independent republics of the former Soviet Union joined forces to compete as the Unified Team, also known as the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). For the first time since 1964, a single German team competed (East and West Germany had previously competed separately). South Africa also returned to the Games for the first time since 1960.
The Barcelona Olympics in many ways welcomed a new era in Australia’s Olympic history. It invigorated support back at home as popular heroes such as 1500m freestyle idol Kieren Perkins and rowing’s ‘Oarsome Foursome’ captured the public’s imagination – and would return as heroes at future Games.
Australia sent a team of 290 athletes to the Games, 194 men and 96 women. Like in 1988, it set a new record for participation. Diver Jenny Donnett, competing at her fourth Games, was the flagbearer at the Opening Ceremony. Her mother, Barbara MacAuley, had represented Australia in diving at the Melbourne Olympics. Perkins carried the flag at the Closing Ceremony.
Australia won 27 medals in Barcelona: seven gold, nine silver and 11 bronze. Excluding the boycott-affected 1984 Games, it was Australia’s best result since the Melbourne 1956 Olympics. As such, it was the best medal haul ever for a team competing outside of Australia.
The seven gold medals were won across five sports: aquatics (swimming), canoe/kayak, cycling, equestrian and rowing. Minor medals were won in four other sports: athletics, hockey, sailing and tennis. It was an outstanding result, demonstrating the growing depth across Olympic sports within Australia.
The most celebrated medal was Kieren Perkins’s 1500m freestyle win, in a world record time of 14 minutes, 43.48 seconds, regarded by many as the best individual performance of the Games. There was also historic gold medals for cyclist Kathy Watt in the women’s road race and for kayaker Clint Robinson in the K1 1000m. Watt, who also won a silver medal on the track, was Australia’s first women’s cycling champion; Robinson the nation’s first canoe/kayak gold medallist.
The only dual gold medallist was equestrian’s Matthew Ryan. He won gold in both the individual and team three-day event, joining Andrew Hoy and Gillian Rolton on the team podium (David Green was also on the team, but his mountDuncan II did not finish the event and so Green did not receive a medal). Ryan, riding Kibah Tic Toc, matched Laurie Morgan’s 1960 feat of winning both eventing gold medals for Australia. Indeed, it had been 32 years since Australia’s last – and only – equestrian gold medals.
Australia enjoyed its most successful Olympic rowing regatta to date, winning two gold medals. In the men’s double sculls, Peter Antonie and Stephen Hawkins, dubbed the ‘Pocket Rockets’ because of their light body weights, outstayed and outraced their bigger rivals. Sharing the spotlight was the quartet of Andrew Cooper, Nick Green, Mike McKay and James Tomkins, champions of the men’s coxless fours. They would win collective fame as the ‘Oarsome Foursome’, the most feared crew in the world. Prior to Barcelona, Australia had not won a rowing gold medal since Merv Wood’s single scull gold medal in 1948.
It was a Games of tremendous achievement. Among other impressive performances were a third silver medal since 1968 for the men’s hockey team; a first Olympic medal, a bronze, to Susie O’Neill in the women’s 200m butterfly; Danielle Woodward’s silver medal in kayak slalom, the country's first women’s canoe/kayak medal; bronze medals to athletes Tim Forsyth (high jump) and Daniela Costian (discus); the men’s football team placing a best-ever fourth; and a fourth place for 3m springboard diver Michael Murphy, the highest finish by an Australian since 1924.
The celebrities of Barcelona were the American men’s basketball team, known as the 'Dream Team'. Professional players were allowed to compete for the first time, and the US team cruised to the gold medal led by NBA legends Larry Bird, Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan. For Jordan, it was his second gold medal, having also competed at the Games in 1984.
Gymnast Vitali Sherbo, competing for the Unified Team, was the most successful athlete, winning six gold medals. Sherbo, from Belarus, witnessed the Belarussian flag and anthem being used at the Olympics for the first time. American identical twins Karen and Sarah Josephson took synchronised swimming to a new level of synchronicity, winning the pairs gold medal. Other champions to impress included swimmers Alex Popov of the Unified Team (two gold) and Hungarian Kriztina Egerszegi (three gold); Algeria’s first Olympic heroine, Hassiba Boulmerka, in the women’s 1500m on the track; Cuba’s outstanding baseball and women’s volleyball teams; and the Spanish football team, whose 3-2 win over Poland in the final sparked wild celebrations.
The Olympic program continued to grow. Baseball and badminton debuted as new sports, judo events for women were held for the first time, and a handful of other new events, including the return of canoe/kayak slalom, meant there were now 26 sports and 259 events being contested.The Unified Team led the medal table with 45 gold, eight more than the United States in second place. But the two stars of the medal table were Cuba, in fifth place with 14 gold medals, and host nation Spain, with 13 gold medals. In its previous 16 appearances at the Games before 1992, Spain had won a total of four gold medals.
Barcelona is associated with artists such as Picasso, Miró, Dalí, Gaudí and Tàpies. In creating the Barcelona 1992 logo a more creative and personal logo was envisaged. The free-form design represents a gymnastics routine and the colours reflect the standards of Barcelona, Catalonia and Spain.
The motto of the Barcelona 1992 Olympic Games was "Friends Forever".
Cobi was a popular mascot. He was a Catalan Sheepdog represented in cubist style inspired by the the interpretations of Picasso of a masterpiece from Velázquez, Las Meninas. | 2019-04-22T12:37:46 | http://olympics.com.au/games/barcelona-1992 |

Graze the Roof: Learning to Craft Custom Raised Beds out of Upcycled Wood!
Learning to Craft Custom Raised Beds out of Upcycled Wood!
This month, we invited our friend, Anders, a master carpenter to join us for our FREE Community Workshop to teach an introduction to carpentry for urban gardens. We worked together to design and build our own customized raised bed. This bed was made from a pile of wood which had been accumulating on the roof for the past several years. We were able to turn "trash," into "treasure!"
Everyone was able to acquire hands-on experience with power tools to construct the bed from start to finish! We learned basic carpentry skills, and got acquainted with various essential tools and their respective application in the construction process. | 2019-04-22T14:05:55 | http://grazetheroof.blogspot.com/2014/03/march-30th-carpentry-workshop.html |

The Chocolatier by Brenda Scruggs is a complex yet sweet romance that centers on a man and a woman from very different worlds, yet they are perfect for each other. Charles Riviera is the heir to a chocolate empire that thrives on the dark, rich, sweet intensity of chocolate. He loves his job, he loves chocolate, and he really enjoys working as Director of Marketing. However, he had no idea that life had an even sweeter surprise waiting for him in the form of a delectable woman who is hiding deep pain.
Charlene Callaway has seen the worst that love and romance have to offer. Ready to marry the man she loved, she found him cheating on her with another woman on their wedding day. Broken hearted and bone weary, she moves away and gets a job at a chocolate company. She had no idea that her future was waiting for her in the form of a dashing, handsome and very interesting man. But bad luck still has an eye on her. She has a stalker and he will not stop until he has her. What can Charlene and Charles do in a situation like this? They are hardly ready to accept their feelings for each other, so what will they do when they have to confront an adversary that is hell-bent on claiming Charlene?
Brenda Scruggs did a wonderful job of creating characters that were real and relatable. The element of surprise, romance, and suspense was great and very well built. The scenarios were real, complex and believable. I loved the sweet love between Charlene and Charles, nothing was forced and Scruggs gave them time and the opportunity to fully explore their feelings for each other before they gave love a chance. The Chocolatier is a complete novel that gives you a sense of fulfillment and leaves you smiling.

The speed at which our world and your projects move means that creating sustainable solutions isn't always at the top of your priority list.
You're focused on the job getting done the right way, on time and on budget, and don't think about the fact that most drywall barricades end up in a landfill when all's said and done. Thankfully, sustainability is built into the core of our barricades and has been since day one.
Barricades, by design, are temporary products; they're built when construction on a site begins and torn down when a project is completed. But that doesn't mean they have to become trash when a project is finished. Our barricades, by design, are entirely modular, and are made of only the highest quality materials. They're also reusable and rebuildable, living a life long beyond one project, and are 100% recyclable.
Boston Barricade is a recipient of SGIA's 2018 Sustainable Business Recognition award. SGIA supports the implementation of sustainable practices throughout the industry and we are honored to receive this recognition.
We are proud members of the U.S. Green Building Council.

It's our longest ever edition of Football Weekly - but you know what they say, size ain't everything.
AC Jimbo has Barry Glendenning, Sean Ingle and Philippe Auclair in the pod to discuss a stonking weekend of football, as Manchester United claimed their 19th league title, Manchester City won the FA Cup and West Ham said goodbye to Avram Grant as they were relegated from the Premier League.
Abroad, we hear from Sid Lowe about Uefa's decision to not charge Sergio Busquets with racism or any other naughtiness, while James Horncastle tells us about poor Sampdoria's fall from grace.
We also get up to date with Lille's attempts to seal the French Double and salute all of those kindly ex-pros who flew to Chechnya to play a friendly after Craig David had warmed up the crowd.

Once an exhaustive password search begins, the most important factor is password length!
The password doesn't need to have “complex length”, because “simple length” is just as unknown to the attacker and must be searched for, just the same.
“Simple length”, which is easily created by padding an easily memorized password with equally easy to remember (and enter) padding creates unbreakable passwords that are also easy to use.
If you make the result long and memorable, you'll have super-strong passwords that are also easy to use. | 2019-04-22T00:16:31 | https://complasweb.com.au/password-generator/ |

1. Islamophobia is a combination of religious, racial, and cultural oppression targeting the presence, dress, behavior, job and educational opportunities, and institutions of anyone perceived to be Muslim, Arab, or generally Middle-Eastern. For more on Islamophobia, read Paul Kivel's Challenging Christian Hegemony.
2. Islamophobia is a contrived fear or prejudice encouraged by the worldwide power structure that places the U.S. and Europe as the center of civilization. Islamophobia is designed to create a sense of fear about Muslim people and Islamic culture as another way to justify and keep in place already existing disparities in economic, political, social and cultural relations. Islamophobia is used to justify the use of violence as a tool to achieve "civilizational rehab" of communities that are presented as posing a threat (Muslim or otherwise). For more, see the University of Berkeley at California's Center for Race and Gender website.
3. Islamophobia is "unfounded hostility towards Muslims, and therefore fear or dislike of all or most Muslims." The term was coined in 1991 about Muslims in the United Kingdom (England) in particular and Europe in general, and was based on the more common "xenophobia" framework (i.e. creating fear of others). For more, see the 1991 Runnymede Trust Report.
Islam is the world's second largest religion. Muslims make up 23% of the world's population. Islam has 1.3 billion followers (compared to Christianity - 2 billion followers and Hinduism - 900 million followers.
The Muslim population in the United States is roughly the same as the Jewish population.
There are 1.6 billion Muslims in the world making up 23% of the world’s population. Somewhere close to 1.6 billion of these Muslims have not committed an act of terror nor have they directly facilitated any terrorist act. The most common victim of attacks by Muslim terrorists are other Muslims.
While Islam is often associated with Arabs, Arabs make up only 15% of the world's Muslim population. The country with the largest population of Muslims is Indonesia. Large numbers of Muslims are found in Asia (69% of the population is Muslim), Africa (27% are Muslim), Europe (3% are Muslim) and other parts of the world. Millions of Arabs are Christian.
Muslims do not worship a separate God; ‘Allah’ simply means God and the roots of the Islamic, Jewish and Christian faiths are the same.
Islam has been part of our country's history since the first person was forcibly brought here for enslavement. An estimated 20–30 percent of the enslaved people forcibly taken from Africa arrived in the U.S. as Muslims. From the 1880s to 1914, several thousand Muslims immigrated to the U.S. from the Middle East. The Muslim population of the U.S. did increase dramatically in the 20th century.
Islam does not subjugate women. Most of the oppressive treatment that women receive in the Muslim world is based on local culture and traditions and/or misrepresentation of religious writing, similar to the cause of oppressive treatment of women in Christian and Jewish communities. This oppressive treatment has no basis in the faith of Islam. In fact, practices such as forced marriage, spousal abuse, and restricted movement directly contradict Islamic law governing family behavior and personal freedom and mirror Western practices of domestic violence, sexual assault, and "religiously" based gender conformity and denial of women's rights to control their own bodies. In recent history, women have been heads of state in four Islamic countries, including Megawati Sukarnoputri of Indonesia, Benazir Bhutto of Pakistan, Tansu Ciller of Turkey, and Khaleda Zia and Sheik Hasina Wazed of Bangladesh while the U.S. is only now considering a woman for that position.
INTERSECTIONALITY OF OPPRESSION: Anti-sharia/anti-”foreign law” bills are the legislative version of anti-Muslim sentiment; these laws track more closely to Voter ID and Right-to-Work bills than anti-immigration laws. The same legislators who promote these laws are also promoting anti-immigrant law, anti-abortion law, voter ID and voter "fraud protection" law, laws targeting LGBTQ communities, and other laws targeting working and poor people. In other words, the current legislative agenda is about preserving power and advancing a right-wing domestic policy agenda. See Manufacturing Bigotry.

12 SUGGESTIONS FOR CONFRONTING ISLAMOPHOBIA - click here.
We are devastated with grief for the lives lost in the shooting at the Pulse Night Club’s Latin Night. In this moment of tremendous pain, we are outraged at the media fanning the flames of Islamophobia, and the whitewashing of the victims.
The same media outlets and talking heads that are pumping out anti-Muslim sentiment were using that same platform mere weeks ago to promote extreme anti-trans ideology and stereotypes of the queer community as "bathroom bills" and hate legislation were passing.
We call on the major news networks to join Showing Up for Racial Justice to act against simplistic attacks on Arabs, Muslims, South Asians and other marginalized groups.
When there is a loss in queer communities, we feel it very deeply. SURJ was founded and is led by queer people, with a deep commitment to queer and trans liberation. LGBTQ lives are precious, and often on the line. Anti queer and trans violence is a frightening reality, and it is most likely to impact queer and trans people of color, including Muslim, Black, immigrant, and Latinx LGBTQ people.
We are heartbroken and grieving, but we will not be misled. Just as we are committed to ending homophobic and transphobic violence against our own communities, we will be working side by side with our Muslim, Arab, Persian, South & East Asian neighbors to end Islamophobia. We will continue to align ourselves with the resilient organizing of immigrant and Latinx communities in the struggle against racism and deportations.
Responses that call for more policing in LGBTQ spaces only aggravate the targeting of the most marginalized among us- specifically Black Trans and Latinx Trans women, queers of color and poor and working class queers by law enforcement, the courts and the prison system.
The pain and heartache we feel in this moment will not drive us apart. Instead, it serves as a reminder as to how important our work for shared liberation from homophobia, transphobia, Islamophobia, white supremacy, and other forms of oppression.

Skilled dental technicians should have a fundamental medical knowledge, which will enable them to produce functional dental prostheses. In dentistry, prosthetic work is objectively assessed using criteria based on the form and function of anatomical tissue structures. Anatomy is therefore a primary discipline for dental technicians.
Anatomy is the study of the structure and form of the human body as well as animal and plant bodies (Fig 1-1). The word anatomy is derived from Greek and means "to dissect or dismember." When the human body is dissected and examined, the position, shape, and composition of the organs and organ systems can be defined. Macroscopic anatomy involves describing the form and structure of what is visible to the naked eye; microscopic anatomy, on the other hand, involves examination of the structure of organs and tissues that can only be seen under the microscope. Focus directed specifically to the positions of the organs and the relations of the organs and tissues to each other is known as topographical anatomy (ie, describing position). However, focus directed to the tissues themselves and their constituents is known as histology (ie, the study of tissues). Cytology (ie, the study of cells) is a specific branch of histology.
The study of form and organization (ie, the study of interactions), mutual influences, and interdependence of organs and organ systems is carried out using techniques that involve studying the processes of life; this discipline is known as physiology. All normal processes in the human body and any normal demands on organs and tissues are therefore considered physiologic. For example, chewing hard foods, which puts strain on the teeth because they are embedded in the jaw, is a physiologic process (and a physiologic stress) because the tissues involved were created for this very purpose and designed to withstand this type of strain. Meanwhile, the discipline of pathology focuses on the abnormal changes in the body as well as the causes of diseases and their courses; changes due to disease are therefore known as pathologic disorders.
While medical practitioners draw on their experiences of anatomy, physiology, and pathology in their daily practice of treating patients, dental technicians do not interact with patients directly but rather base their restorations on physical reproductions (models) of the patients' teeth. Therefore, a sound knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and pathology is essential for any dental technician. The goal of any artificial replacement, whether it be for the teeth, parts of the alveolar ridge, or mucous membrane, is to integrate this prosthesis with the living structures; not only is the form being replaced, but function is also being restored. In other words, the dental prosthesis should not only replace the tissue but should also function in the same way as the original tissue.
There is a close link between the unique form of a tissue (eg, of teeth) and the function it is intended to carry out.This relationship has led to the establishment of the law of form and function, which states that a tissue developed for a specific purpose takes on a specific form for that purpose. This law also states that when the function of the tissue changes, its form alters to the same extent and vice versa.
Disuse atrophy is a particular aspect of the law of form and function, and it may explain the association between the form and the function of a tissue. If a leg is immobilized in a plaster cast after a fracture, the muscles begin to waste away and weaken because they are not being used; their form or shape therefore changes. However, this process is reversible. If the leg is used again after the fracture has healed, the muscles return to their original form. Atrophy is the wasting away of tissue caused by lack of nutrition, while disuse atrophy is specifically a shrinking of tissue caused by reduced blood flow when there is a lack of use.
Once this association between form and function is established, it becomes clear that a denture, like any other component in the body, must have the correct anatomical form in order to function reliably. An artificial prosthesis that does not have the correct form cannot fulfill the original function of the tissue. | 2019-04-24T20:43:27 | http://www.dent-wiki.com/dental_technology/form-and-function/ |

Sergiu Biriş, the initial cofounder from 2007 has launched in 2012 the Zonga application, the first Romanian mobile music application, offering subscription access to over 18 million tracks. Sergiu Biriş has congratulated the other team members: „Andrei, Mark and the incredible team they have built deserves all credit. I am glad to have been even a small part in this beautiful story. Bravo to them!” wrote Biriş on Facebook.

Hi, my name is Imogen and I am age 21 and live in York, England. I started Upside Down Chronicles in 2014 to have a dedicated place for my writing. This blog has gone through many transformations as my life has. At first this blog was a place to discuss issues relating to sight loss and the adventures of my assistance dog and I as we explored the world. However, In 2014 after many years of struggling with mental ill health I was admitted to a Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service inpatient unit for treatment. I spent a year in two children’s psychiatric units in which I rekindled my love for creativity. I wrote about my time in CAMHS inpatient care on this blog, to try and bring insight into the lives of so many young people who are in psychiatric units today. Creativity saved my life, and I am determined to bring it into the lives of other young people like me.
These days this blog is mostly a resource of information and personal experience of mental illness. I hope that by reading my posts people can feel slightly less alone. I am registered blind, and my posts often link into disability more generally as well as tying into my work as an arts facilitator and artist.
I am a trained Arts Award Adviser and run arts workshops and groups for people of all ages and abilities. These workshops are individually planned to the needs of the participants. So far I have done everything from using Makkaton to sign ‘The Gruffalo’, all the way to creating spoken word poetry.
My own art form mostly revolves around the written word. I perform my own spoken word poetry at local gigs and have been featured at York Literature Festival and York Disability Pride. I also draw cartoon mice which explain various aspects of mental illness, recovery and disability and share them on Instagram. I am currently working as Artist in Residence at York Explore Libraries and Archives as well as volunteering as an arts group assistant at York Mind. | 2019-04-21T10:34:36 | https://upsidedownchronicles.com/about-me/ |

The number of outright inaccuracies in the piece is astonishing, including the switch on what Phil Jones really claimed about “statistically significant” global warming.
We have a (non-violent) fight on our hands, not of our own choosing : keep telling the truth, and insisting on correcting falsehoods; or face an uphill ramp of complications and delays.
One by one, the newspapers are coming to the altar of Anthropogenic Global Warming to make their confession.
I’m actually quite surprised that journalists can understand the Science sufficiently to be able to write accurately.
Wonders will never cease !
Some people have been asking why I’ve been so picky about Richard Black, the BBC environmental journalist.
I found fault with a blog post of his that had a lot of good, illuminating stuff in it, yet still managed to misdirect people, in my opinion.
What we read in the papers, online and watch on the television has a longlasting effect on us. If the news is skewed, and if it continues to be skewed, we are being manipulated. | 2019-04-25T16:01:43 | http://www.joabbess.com/tag/journalism/ |

Toronto’s historic Campbell House was the site for the SummerWorks Summer Soiree 2013 and Launch Party to raise funds and awareness for the 22nd annual SummerWorks Theatre Performance Festival. Guests had choices of Pitar wines and Mill Street Beer along with hors d’oeuvres like smoked Gouda grilled cheese sandwiches from Lakeview Restaurant and Devils on Horseback (bacon wrapped dates) from Samuel J Moore.
The various rooms of the Campbell House housed different theatre companies who performed teasers from their upcoming SummerWorks shows or created one-of-a kind pieces just for the Soirée. Magician Joe Culpepper, (Show and Tell Alexander Bell) delighted guests with his carnation magic trick.
Jani Lauzon (A Side of Dreams) showed guests how to make their own dreamcatchers, which allows good dreams to fall through the centre and nightmares to be caught in the web. In the piece ‘Four Words’, SummerWorks Artist-In-Residence and host of CBC Radio’s Definitely Not the Opera, Sook-Yin Lee (How Can I Forget) along with Adam Litovitz, Max Chandler, Stephanie Southmayd and Alice Lundy, encouraged the crowd to join them in creating a poem using only four words at a time. The witty poems were then sold for $4.00 or auctioned off to the highest bidder, much to the amusement of the crowd.
One highlight was the comedic libretto excerpt from Paradises Lost which follows the 200 year journey of the starship Discovery to colonize a new uninhabited planet.
Bluemouth Inc. staged a game of strip poker where participants had to reveal a truthful incident from their lives. And, some clothes did come off!
After the VIP event, the doors were opened to the general public for the Launch Party with more treats, wines, live performances and music. | 2019-04-19T17:01:47 | http://fashionecstasy.com/summer-soiree-2013-a-vip-event-in-support-of-summerworks-theatre-performance-festival/ |

The moment a groom asked the 6-year-old child of his bride to be his daughter for life at their wedding has gone viral (video below).
Diogo Bolant, 37, surprised the young girl, named Isadora, at the wedding with her very own ring to bind them together, the Daily Mail reports.
The moment was captured on video and shared to Facebook. It has been viewed more than nine million times in just one week.
Of course the little girl said yes without hesitation.
Diogo then takes a ring out of a box and places it on Isadora’s finger as she cries and her mother, 27-year-old Nicole de Souza, looks on.
Isadora responds by falling into her new stepfather’s arms, hugging him. Diogo then places a kiss on her cheek.
Both he and Nicole wanted Isadora to play a big role in their wedding ceremony, and since the 6-year-old is at that age where fantasizing about being a bride or a princess is cool, this was truly a dream come true.
Isadora always hoped that Diogo and her mom Nicole would get married someday.
Now this triad of love is officially a family, though it’s obvious from this photo that they were already so. | 2019-04-26T12:44:24 | http://www.wisethinks.com/2016/11/groom-suddenly-knelt-before-fiancees-6_30.html |
This article appears in the August 2017 issue of Patient Safety Monitor Journal.
Editor’s note: Healthcare innovation involves doing something differently than how it’s normally done, whether it’s a new device, policy, or program. Many of these evidence-based practices, promising studies, and groundbreaking programs are never adopted outside their test facilities. Many fail to work or fall short of expectations when implemented elsewhere. And it’s often difficult to get buy-in from healthcare staff and leadership on a new way of doing things.
PSMJ spoke with Craig Deao, MHA, senior leader at Studer Group, about how to tell whether a new innovation can work at your facility and how to successfully implement it.
Q: Reading the news every day makes it seem like the healthcare field abounds with “proven methods” and “evidence-based” innovations that could improve healthcare. Is that the reality?
And [17 years] is just the median, so there’s still half the market that hasn’t adopted the practice. So there are tons of best practices that are nowhere near application yet. There’s a good case to be made that applying what is already known would drive an incredible amount of gains in quality (and lower cost). We see this every day in our work, where organizations are struggling with a specific metric yet have not hardwired known best practice.
On the other hand, it’s also true that not every problem can be solved by applying a rules-based solution that worked elsewhere. There are legitimate differences in context that require art as well as science. The art is about knowing the difference between adapting best practices (changing them to fit the context) versus wholly adopting them. The trick is adapting without messing up why it works in the first place. Too often we see organizations adapt best practices to the point that they’re no longer as effective. So, it’s a fine line to walk.
It’s not just about adopting best practices to achieve our goals, but I’d say that’d get us about 90% of the way there.
Q: How many innovations end up being adopted on a widespread scale in healthcare field?
Deao: Not enough. We often think of innovation as doing new things. But in healthcare, some of the best innovations are deciding what not to do—especially when the current practice has no evidence basis. The “Choosing Wisely” campaign is an excellent resource for both clinicians and patients that identifies lists upon lists of medical practices that should be questioned because they have no medical evidence to support their usage. Yet we still give too many antibiotics for colds and too many x-rays for low back pain. | 2019-04-25T23:45:59 | https://www.psqh.com/analysis/bringing-innovation-facility/ |
No. I do not mean my husband, kids, mother, father, sister and brothers. Nor do I mean my country, or even God. Sure. I love them too, but this is not about them.
This is about my fellow WINGs members. Yes, they are also my fellow Writers and Wannabes bloggers, and you can see them on the panel to your right.
Now, you’re probably saying to yourself; Yeah, they’re a pretty good looking bunch, but, “LUV?” Really?
Yes. Really. Let me tell you the sad story of a lonely puppy that got lost on a dark and dreary night, and huddled in the confines of a leaky sewer pipe until she was rescued by a beautiful light. Ok? What? Been there? Heard that?
Well, then, I’ll tell you another story. My story. Flash back to New Year’s Eve, six years ago and there’s TK Ed 2006., sitting in her living room, little puppies, err, kids, all around her, wine glass in hand, pondering her existence. She had the golden ring; the kids, the trophy husband, the house and car, the fancy law office, the respect of her colleagues… Well, maybe. TKEd06 sat there and thought until her ingrown toe nails grew in grown toenails. What was missing in her life? What did she really want to do? What did she really want to achieve?
Several wine glasses and ball droppings later, she realized what she’d been missing – self-satisfaction, gratifying goals and… friends.
Fast-forward to TKEd12, and she has all of these and … it’s all thanks to those women to your right. Just about the best critique group ever, they’ve been there to pick me up after a bad reject, to celebrate my one or two small successes, and when I’ve needed a shoulder to cry on.

A week after Bhartiya Janta Party won a historic mandate in the UP assembly elections, 2017, Yogi Adityanath was announced as the Chief Minister-designate. This announcement added even more to the buzz created by the victory of the saffron party in Uttar Pradesh.
We crawled the web (news websites + blogs) for the entire election period and came up with the following report.
Elections are always a matter of discussion but this time, the election of the CM of Uttar Pradesh is an even bigger deal. Yogi was announced as the CM-designate on 18th March and this news stole all the attention nationwide. You can see the graph inclining upwards in that duration. All the major publications had nearly the same news trending on the front page in both positive and negative context.
A number of well-known publishers remained active and the list also includes the online lifestyle magazine for men, MensXP.
For the next insight from our analysis, we have generated a word cloud of digital media (news + blogs) keywords concerning Yogi, crawled from the beginning of the election season till the CM taking the oath. These words have been pulled out from the online media conversation regarding the subject of matter.
As you can see in the image, the most talked about topics revolved around the Babri Masjid controversy where Yogi Adityanath was a hardline advocate of the construction of Ram Mandir on the site. The other trending words included slaughterhouses that have been recently shut down on his orders along with other common topics of discussion during an election.
The alternate media also supports the positivity in the sentiment of people. A massive amount of tweets (nearly 76k) concerning Yogi Adityanath surfaced within a span of 2 days of him being announced as CM. The overall sentiment remained positive throughout.
With majority positive sentiment, we got mixed emotions with significant scores of the angry and funny emotions.
Unlike the other buzzed up issues, this one had opinion-driven tweets mostly. Yogi’s appointment as the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh was a lot for people to sink in with BJP already making a historical win. People expressed it all quite precisely on twitter.
We are introducing a new feature in this report where you can see the word distribution of the positive and negative tweets with their respective frequencies.
The BJP win and Yogi’s appointment as the CM are certainly a huge reorientation in the political arena of Uttar Pradesh. People are looking forward to a better state and the government has 5 full years to bring a change and make that happen.

What is today the market for the Ferrari 360 Modena and the Ferrari F430? What rates should you expect? Are they going up or down? On TheFerrarista.com we follow their evolution since 2010, allowing you to get a significant history to detect trends.
The data presented in this study are, for the French market, from the site La Centrale and, for the European market, from the site Autoscout24. They offer the greatest number of Ferrari ads on each of these markets. Replicas of Ferrari, wrecked cars, imports from the United States ... are removed from the published figures, as any questionable deals at extremely low or high prices, which would not be representative of the market and distord the data. The minimum and maximum rates are present only for information. It is the median price in bold which is representative of the market. This is thes price asked in the ads, not the actual sales prices, which are not known but inevitably lower. Changes in prices are representative of market trends.
While prices for the Ferrari 360 Modena followed a logical decline since 2010 (latest model), their rates have increased since one year and a half. This increase was global on Ferrari and vintage cars. The rates have not doubled as for other models, but they are still 22% higher than in 2014.
You may notice that some people attempt rates never seen before, for instance 159,990 euros requested for a Ferrari 360 Spider. It is true that this copy has only 4000 kilometers on the odometer.
Regarding the number of copies being for sale, it continues to decline, as often with a model that is becoming older. This means, as members are wrinting on the TheFerrarista.com forum, that it is increasingly difficult to find a nice copy with a complete history and the options of your choice.
88 40 000 59 400 80 900 N.A. N.A. N.A. N.A.
68 43 900 57 280 89 900 N.A. N.A. N.A. N.A.
While the prices of the Ferrari 360 Modena rose 22% from a year and a half that of the Ferrari F430 has increased "only" 8%. Good news if you bought the Ferrari F430 in 2012: rates have remained the same. You could almost sell it at the same price than purchased.
Note that the prices are higher for manual transmission versions, which is a recent phenomenon. As seen with the Ferrari 360 Modena, the "speculative" increases only recently touched these models compared to other Ferrari, but some copies are at crazy prices (see max column.). But are there really buyers at this price, which is that of a Ferrari 430 Scuderia?
Regarding the Ferrari 430 Scuderia, on LaCentrale you have only 35 ads for the Ferrari F430 but 25 for the Ferrari 430 Scuderia, much less produced (roughly 7 times less). Are there many owners who wish to enjoy the significant increase on the Ferrari 430 Scuderia by selling their copy?
As for the Ferrari 360 Modena, the ads are increasingly rare, though still significant volumes for a Ferrari. It becomes increasingly difficult to find a nice copy with specific options.
113 64 900 86 000 139 500 N.A. N.A. N.A. N.A.
106 56 900 87 400 127 900 N.A. N.A. N.A. N.A.
What thoughts inspire you those numbers on the prices of the Ferrari 360 Modena and the Ferrari F430 over the last 6 years? Do they reflect your impressions of the market and its evolutions? Do you think the prices for the Ferrari 360 Modena will continue to rise? And how do you believe the prices for the Ferrari F430 could evolve?
A big THANK YOU to sbnormand for figures for 2013 and 2014.
Merci pour cette photo de l'évolution des prix moyens.
Je ne suis spécialement la cote de ce modèle mais il me semble que le marché s'est segmenté avec d'un côté les boites F1 dont la cote ne varie pas trop alors que les modèles à boîte manuelle voient leur cote augmenter....mais il serait plutôt compliqué, j'imagine, de proposer plusieurs grilles d'évolution des prix.....et pourquoi en fonction des rouges ou non !!
Merci Rob59 pour ce commentaire !
Effectivement le haut de la côte est désormais squatté par les exemplaires en boite manuelle, ce qui est un phénomène récent, comme indiqué dans l'article. Si on divise l'analyse avec les boites manuelles ou F1, les spiders et les coupés, celles qui sont rouges ou non (les rouges se vendent-elles plus chères ?), etc. nous n'aurons plus une vision d'ensemble de l'évolution du marché, mais une vision de chaque micro-marché spécifique.
Nota : l'évolution du marché pour les Ferrari F430 a été ajoutée depuis, car souvent on hésite entre l'une ou l'autre, et il est intéressant de comparer comment ces deux marchés évoluent.
Les deux autos ayant à mon avis une philosophie bien différente pour une même plateforme.
Lors de ma recherche j'ai pu constater un écart de prix significatif entre ces 2 modèles, la fourchette haute pour le spider évidemment.
Et il en est de même pour la 458 que je regarde avec intérêt en spider...Mais le soucis c'est que ce modèle suit le même schéma que les 360 et 430, comme toutes les Ferrari de l’ère "modernes " post 355.
Bonne analyse des chiffres, aujourd'hui pas facile de trouver une belle F430 rouge à un prix cohérent.
J'attendrais le temps qu'il faut pas acheter une belle 430 à l'historique limpide.
Il n'est pas rare de voir des membres qui mettent 6 mois à 1 an pour trouver leur Ferrari F430, le bel exemplaire avec les bonnes options. Si une année de recherche active est passée, peut-être que la recherche n'est pas en phase avec le marché (les beaux exemplaires sont plus chers ou les critères de recherche sont trop exigeants ou etc.). On en connait qui, ne trouvant pas le bel exemplaire, ont fini par acheter une neuve (mais ce n'est pas le même tarif) !
Puisqu''il y a de la demande pour deux catégories (coupés et spiders), nous allons le faire, d'autant que les données de sbnormand de 2012 à 2014 nous permettent déjà d'avoir un historique à présenter.
