Whether you're operating a warehouse, garage or factory, you know how much of an obstacle heating buildings can be. The high temperatures that result from electrical equipment, poor ventilation or hot weather can put an immense amount of stress on employees. It's important that you keep the heat down to protect the health employees and keep productivity up. While there are a wide variety of cooling options to choose from, Portacool is one of the best cooling solutions available.
What is Portacool?
Portacool is a line of portable evaporative cooling machines. These machines can cool as much as 6250 square feet with one fan. The coolers plug into standard electricity outlets and require a connection to a water source such as a hose. Once the pump is on, the water is circulated into the evaporative cooler. The fan will then spread cool air throughout the entire space.
More Effective than Fans and Air Conditioners
One problem with portable air conditioners is they are often ineffective in circulating cold air. Fans are effective in circulating air but they don't do anything to bring down the temperature. They only circulate the hot air. The Portacool evaporative cooler can do both. The evaporative cooling brings down the temperature and the fan helps circulate the air. It can also cover more surface area than air conditioners or fans.
More Affordable Than Installing a HVAC System
While an HVAC system is a long term solution to the temperature problem, it's not ideal for many business owners. HVAC systems can cost tens of thousands of dollars in large industrial warehouses or factories. Portacool models range from a couple of hundred dollars to the low thousands depending on how powerful the machine is. If the budget is tight, you can opt for a Portacool rental rather than buying one from a Portacool distributor. Instead of buying a system, you can test out how effective these machines are by renting them.
The Best Choice for Flexibility
Installing or extending an HVAC system can be time consuming and costly. HVAC systems can also limit the focus of the cooling rather than get it to the area where it is needed. Portacool is the perfect cooling solution if you're looking for flexibility. The machines are open wheels making it easy to transport from room to room. They can also keep your employees cool when they are working outdoors in hot weather. All you need is an electricity and water source. No other cooling solution offers this much flexibility.
Consumes Less Electricity
Utilities can eat into profits. Especially in industrial warehouses and factories where electrical equipment is largely used. A large commercial HVAC system can run a monthly bill in the thousands. Portacool can cool as much as 5625 square feet and run a bill as low as $31 a month. This is because the units run on 115 volt power and consume a low amount of electricity. These cooling units can be used as needed and do not need a warm up or cool down period like HVAC systems.
Perfect for Workplace Productivity and Safety
Providing cooling for your industrial warehouse or factory is not just a luxury. It can help you save money and help your business run effectively. Employees working under hot conditions can lose productiveness by 12%. This is a consequence of fluid loss and the stress caused by the heat. High temperatures can also put your employees at serious health risks. It can lead to heat exhaustion and in the most serious cases, heat strokes. These issues can result in employee downtime or even worker's compensation claims. This is why an effective cooling solution is good for your business and your employees.
If you're looking for an economical and effective cooling solution, you can come to us for a Portacool evaportive cooler rental. Reno Forklift is a material handling solutions company offering a complete line of dock equipment and services. We have a wide variety of Portacool models, so you can choose one that fits into your price range and is effective for the amount of square feet you need covered.

Sharing & Caring During the Holiday Season
Winter is coming, and that means that the holidays are on their way. It's the perfect time to feel the holiday spirit and try to help your fellow man. There are a lot of different ways to do that, so it's easy to find something that can make a difference for a small part of the world that anyone can handle.
Donate Blood
The Red Cross always needs blood donations, but the need increases during times when people are more likely to be injured. People travel a lot around the holidays, which means there are more accidents and thus more injuries, so blood banks can run into trouble during the holidays. Blood also spoils quickly, so you can be sure that your donation is needed, especially if you have a rare blood type. Donating blood is quick, easy, and free, so it's a great option for people who are interested in giving back to others without going to too much trouble.
The best way to donate blood is to schedule a visit to a local blood drive. Most blood drives will advertise for several days before the event, so it's relatively easy to find one. The Red Cross can also help you to find the nearest blood drive if there aren't any local advertisements. If there aren't any blood drives to attend, consider organizing one of your own. It takes more work, but blood can save lives, so it's certainly worth the effort.
Volunteering as a Tutor
Education is one of the keys to building a better life, but sometimes getting an education is easier said than done. Volunteering your time as a tutor can give the gift of knowledge to someone in need, and that gift can pay dividends for years to come. There are several ways to do this, so most people can find some way to help.
Literacy is one of the most important skills because it enables people to learn other things, but some people have trouble with it. Children need to practice reading if they're going to get good at it, but they don't always get that chance at home. Providing it is a great way to give back to the community. Simply handing out simple books and giving children the chance to read to you as you fix their mistakes can be a big help. Reading to them is also useful, and almost any adult can do it.
Older students often need help with specific subjects. Helping them requires more specialized knowledge, but you can still do it if you understand the subject. Adults with specialized skills, like woodworking, can also take the chance to pass those on. They aren't always taught in school, but they're still useful.
The best way to get involved through tutoring is to contact a local school and ask if they need help with any of their clubs or programs. Libraries are also a good choice, especially for people who want to help with literacy issues. Even if they don't need volunteers themselves, they can usually point you towards a program that does.
Cook a Feast
Most holidays involve big meals with big groups of people. If you're filled with the holiday spirit and want to give back in a way that fits the season, you can't go wrong by contributing to a meal for the community.
These community meals help to solve several different problems at the same time. At a basic level, they can help to fight hunger in the community. They can also spread some holiday joy to people who aren't able to afford the traditional meal on their own. One meal may not seem like much, but it can make a big difference to people who are on the verge of poverty.
Community feasts also offer a hidden benefit. It isn't much fun to be alone for the holidays, but it happens to a surprising number of people. These events give those individuals a chance to come together with other people for the holidays that would otherwise be denied to them. That's a powerful gesture, and it can make the holidays much brighter.
Remember the Essentials
In the end, the holidays are a time to give back to the community. Even a small effort can make a big difference, so there's no reason not to do something to help others. As long as you remember the golden rule when you volunteer, it's hard to go wrong.

Types of Scissor Jacks
Scissor jacks are devices that are used to slowly and carefully lift vehicles off of the ground. They are called scissor jacks because they are made of diagonal pieces of metal that contract and expand in a way similar to that of a pair of scissors. They are very useful, handy, and easy to carry around because they are compact when in the contracted position.
There are two main types of scissor jacks:
- Hydraulic or Electronic Scissor Jacks – these are the ones often found in automobile shops, vehicle service centers, and related businesses. These jacks lift vehicles up off the ground to perform certain tasks, including maintenance, repairs, and diagnostics.
These are definitely the right choice for more professional car inspections and repairs. Hydraulic scissor jacks are necessary to have when performing complex procedures on the vehicle.
- Manual Jacks – these are the more common type of scissor jacks. Laymen are familiar with this kind of scissor jack. It is much smaller and often comes with both used and new vehicles, along with a spare tire. It can easily fit inside the trunk of a car. It is a necessary tool to always have with you because you can easily use it in case you have a flat tire situation while on the road. If you are buying a used car, be sure to check the trunk and make sure this jack is also included, together with the owner's manual.
Manual scissor jacks are usually used to lift only one corner of the vehicle. You place the jack right behind the wheel, and it lifts up that side of the car. This allows you to check out or work on a wheel that might be flat or damaged. However, if you require a more complicated maintenance or repair service, it's good to have more than just one of these jacks around. A lot of car owners who do DIY repairs and diagnostics invest in having several jacks so that they can get access to the vehicle's underside. Making sure that the jacks are sturdy and solid is crucial in keeping the position of the car steady, at the same time ensuring the safety of the person inspecting the vehicle.
Depending on where it will be used and who will use it, finding the right type of scissor jack is crucial in the task at hand. For both types, quality is important to ensure safety and security for the person and the vehicle.

Types of Lift Equipment
There are various lift equipment designs for specific tasks. Lift equipment are machines that lessen the load for the workers and complete tasks quickly and easily. Here are some of the most common types of lift equipment:
- Telescopic Boom Lifts – these lifts are often preferred for tasks that need the maximum elevation height. They have straight and extendable arms where a work bucket is often mounted, while the boom rests on a turntable that rotates. The bucket can accommodate only one person every time. With this said, this kind of lift is ideal for tasks that only need one person, but require high altitudes, such as electrical repair, facade cleaning, and other maintenance tasks.
- Scissor Lifts – these got their name from the cross-braces. They move upward as they squeeze together and propel the platform up at a certain level. There are limited uses for this kind of lift, since it needs to be placed directly below the work site. They can provide ease and convenience, though, if used properly with other kinds of lift equipment.
- Bucket Lifts – these are often used in pruning trees. They have long boom arms that carry a bucket where a worker stays while the machine reaches altitude. A big advantage to using this equipment is that the boom can be mounted on a regular truck, which means it can withstand road travel with standard traffic and speed. A lot of electric companies use these lifts to ascend their workers towards transmission lines. It is critical to regularly check them to ensure proper insulation, especially if used in applications that pose potential shock hazards.
- Articulated Boom Lifts – these are also called "knuckle lifts". They have an articulated arm which is useful in maneuvering around obstacles. The machine's base has a turntable that lets the machine turn its lift at 360 degrees. They are utilized for maintenance tasks, repairs on electrical pipes and poles, and other similar applications. They also let workers reach difficult spots and navigate uneven terrain. A driver controls the equipment on a platform and extends the boom.
There are many other types of lift equipment on the market today, each serving a specific purpose. Most of these are common in industries like construction, repair, maintenance, electrical utilities, and others. Thanks to ever-evolving technology, these machines not only help in completing construction projects, they also assist workers in various manual and maintenance tasks in different fields and industries.

The Human Element in Forklift Design
When materials handling organizations look to purchase new forklifts for their operations, the final decision is often made based on input from a number of different departments involved in the supply chain operation. From finance to IT and logistics, the purchase of a new fleet of forklifts effects everyone in the company. Unfortunately, however, the people who are often left out of the process are the ones actually tasked with operating the forklift. Companies rarely purchase forklifts with an eye towards operator comfort. They don't do this out of malice. It's just the nature of managerial nearsightedness. They simply don't know about the issues facing operators.
We want to help. Let's take a look at some of the forklift design issues facing operators. Being aware of these issues can increase employee morale, contribute to safety and ultimately boost productivity.
Before deciding on a forklift, take some time to ask your forklift provider about operator specific issues. Here is a list of questions to get clear answers to before purchase
1. Is the visibility appropriate for the tasks the operator will be
required to perform?
As a safety concern, proper visibility is essential. Operating a forklift in the narrow confines of a warehouse can be hazardous for both operator and workers on the floor. The many blind spots that exist in the warehouse layout are hazardous enough. Ensure that these hazards are not exacerbated by a poorly designed forklift with impeded visibility. Get feedback from your operators to ensure that what is promised in a spec sheet actually performs on the warehouse floor before purchase.
2. How readily will the truck accommodate different body sizes?
In the 1950s, the US Airforce discovered the flaw of cookie cutter accommodations based on average height, weight and extremity length. They discovered that this flaw was contributing to crashes and deaths and needed immediate rethinking, forever changing the way airplanes are designed.
Before making a decision on a forklift purchase, ensure that the forklift design takes into consideration the fact that people are not all the same size. What is good for an operator who is 5'7'' may not be good at all for an operator who is 6'3". In this case, the forklift needs to offer adjustable seating or other options to accommodate all operators.
3. How will an operator's posture impact comfort and fatigue?
Bad posture is one of the leading causes of fatigue and lost productivity. Before making a forklift purchase, make sure that the forklift is designed with operator posture in https://www.renoforklift.com/forklift-services-reno/mind. If a forklift design you currently use contributes to bad posture by forcing an operator to strain or use compensatory techniques, your organization may want to think about replacing these forklifts.
Getting answers to these question is not just a matter of reviewing the spec sheet and checking each off. It is important that you ensure that what is promised on the spec sheet actually manifests in the working environment and operator conditions of your warehouse. The best way to get clear, unbiased answers to these questions is to consult with your operators on each and let them test the forklift you are thinking of purchasing for issue in design. This will go a long way to ensuring that your warehouse is a safe, efficient and employee friendly environment.

Essential Warehouse Supplies
The efficiency, safety and reliability of a warehouse is only as good as the materials handling equipment it employs. Inadequate equipment means inadequate operations. And without the essential warehouse supplies, the warehouse is just a building. This essential warehouse equipment will make moving, manipulating, storing, organizing, and maneuvering easier and more efficient.
Space is an expensive thing in warehouses. Efficient movement and storage of inventory and merchandise are a must in order to optimize every inch of space. Essential warehouse supplies like forklifts, pallet jacks and industrial shelving will greatly help for this purpose. Let's take a look.
Industrial shelving
This is a vital item in a warehouse. It helps optimize space, specifically vertical space. Industrial shelving will help make use of vertical space to free up more floor or horizontal space. This is taking advantage of cubic footage over square (floor) footage.
There are many different types of industrial shelving, depending on the required function. Shelving for stacking and storing pallets are the most commonly used type.
Pallet jacks and hand trucks
Items in shelves, especially in higher levels, will be a challenge to place and retrieve without pallet jacks and hand trucks. These are necessary in transporting heavy, large, bulky objects. Without these, movement of items will be a real pain.
A pallet jack is a hand pallet truck. These are simple to operate so as to move and lift pallets. The front wheels of the pallet jack are placed inside the fork ends. These forks will vertically separate from the wheels as the hydraulic jack becomes elevated. This movement will move the load upwards.
For moving large items horizontally, a power pallet truck or electric pallet truck will do the job better. These are ideal to use if the warehouse has a large space or for outside use. These are simple to operate and safe to use. Maintenance requirements are also minimal. Power pallet trucks work similarly to hand pallet trucks. The main difference is on the use of AC electric motor. Some models have a platform where the user can stand on during the entire operation. There is also a brake that can help keep the equipment in place during certain operations.
This trusty, unassuming equipment is a mainstay in any warehouse. This is one of the most basic warehouse supplies that acts as the backbone of all warehouse operations.
Forklifts help in moving merchandise around. With the bulky, large and heavy objects involved in warehouse operations, forklifts really come in useful. Imagine having to lift enormous boxes by hand.
The forklift is also designed to fit into tight spaces. This makes it the perfect tool to retrieve or to store items in a packed warehouse safely and easily.

Types of Scissor Lifts for Warehouses
Scissor lifts are a great help to warehouse operations. They provide a safe working area for those needing to perform certain jobs and activities at high locations. For example, electricians can safely and comfortably work at electrical poles and wires. Structural engineers can perform more thorough inspections of areas located at elevated positions. There are many other applications of scissor fork lifts and many different types. Let's take a look at the types of scissor lifts that are used in warehouses.
Types of Scissor Lifts
There are more than 1 type of this useful materials handling equipment. Most people only know of the MEWP or the Mobile Elevated Work Platform. There is also the hydraulic scissor lift, electrical, diesel and pneumatic lifts.
Hydraulic Scissor Lifts
This type uses hand powered or engine driven pressurized hydraulics to lift loads. The change in pressure of the hydraulic oil is responsible for moving the work platform upwards and downwards.
The presence of oil affects the efficiency of the hydraulic lift. Oil is affected by environmental conditions and consequently influences how the lift will function. In warmer temperatures, oil is less viscous and circulates better. This will result in faster lift operation compared to when using the lift in colder weather. Oil becomes more viscous in colder weather, making it slower to circulate.
This problem is only present in older models. The oil-weather problem has been addressed in newer models.
Diesel and Electrical Scissor Lifts
These are the most commonly used scissor lift types. The electrical lift is more often used for jobs done in enclosed spaces. This is the choice when using diesel types. Enclosed spaces do not have enough ventilation, contributing to the buildup of dangerous fumes from burning diesel.
For outdoor activities, diesel lifts are the preferred type to use. These lifts can be extended up to 10 meters. Some can even be extended to 18 meters high.
Pneumatic Scissor Lifts
This type works with the use of air pressure as a mechanism of lift. This is an eco-friendly type because it does not emit any harmful fumes or by-products in the environment. Most models do not even have to use electricity in order to operate.
A pneumatic scissor lift works by sucking in and compressing atmospheric air. Due to the fact that its doesn't have any emissions, this type can be used in almost any kind of working environment. It only needs air to operate. Pneumatic Scissor Lifts are great for work both inside and outside the warehouse. Since there are few moving parts and no engine, this type of scissor lift also requires very little maintenance.
Types of Scissor Lifts with Reno Forklift
Whether you need the simplicity and durability of a pneumatic scissor lift or the power and versatility of the pdiesel or electrical model, Reno forklift has the types of scissor lifts you need for your warehouse, store or garage. Reno Forklift is the premier provider of materials handling equipment to the Reno and Northern Nevada area. Come check out our catalog and contact us today! We look forward to working with you!

What is Materials Handling Equipment?
Basics of Materials Handling Equipment
Materials handling equipment are mechanical equipment that are utilized in moving, storing, controlling, and protecting products and materials throughout the cycle processes of manufacturing, distributing, consuming, and disposing. There are four major types of these equipment:
- Transport equipment – These are designed to transfer materials from the point of origin to the point of destination. For instance, materials need to be moved between different workplaces, to and from shipping docks or storage facilities. The main equipment under this category include industrial trucks, cranes, and conveyors. There is also the option of manually transporting materials without the use of any equipment.
- Positioning equipment – These handle materials at one given location at a time. They are designed to orient, load and unload, and feed materials to ensure proper positioning for future machining, handling, transfer, or storage. These equipment often stay put on-site for long periods of time.
- Unit load formation equipment – These are used to limit materials in order to keep and protect their integrity during single load transports or storage.
- Storage equipment – These mainly buffer and hold materials for long spans of time. Each piece of storage equipment is designed (together with the warehouse it is kept in) to minimize costs of handling, allow easy access for material retrieval, and maximize space utilization.
The process of materials handling requires a whole network of manual, semi-automatic, and automatic machinery and systems that allow the supply chain to work while supporting the company's logistics.
It is important to adhere to the best practices when designing (and implementing) a materials handling system. This makes sure that each process and piece of equipment (manual, semi-automatic, or automatic) will work hand-in-hand in a given facility as one unified system.
Almost every industry today takes advantage of various materials handling equipment. These industries include: food and beverage, automotive and aerospace, hardware and construction, consumer goods, appliances, pharmaceuticals and hospitals, retail and e-commerce, manufacturing and materials processing, chemicals, plastics, paper, and warehousing and distribution.
By understanding the underlying principles of materials handling, implementing the right chain of command in between processes, and proper maintenance of equipment and facilities, businesses and industries can effectively pursue operations – be it manufacturing, storage, or transportation and delivery of their products and goods.

We offer quality forklift repair services and sales. Come check out our online catalog of materials handling products and contact us today! We look forward to hearing from you!
Forklifts are among the most common materials handling equipment in almost all industries. They are considered to be rugged machines that can withstand tough conditions. With this in mind, regular servicing of forklifts is a must as part of maintaining a fleet of materials handling equipment. Regular forklift maintenance will ensure that there will be no disruptions in the workflow involving this piece of equipment.
How Often Should You Maintain a Forklift?
The very first thing to do is to determine the frequency of maintenance needed. This begins with having the equipment undergo an engineering analysis. This assessment will take a look at the forklift's age and current condition, its overall value, how long it has been used (hours of operation), how hard it has been working, safety requirements according to standard regulation, any vulnerability to damage, readjustment needs, its service record, and if there is any previous maintenance work order put in place.
This analysis goes hand-in-hand with checking in with the operators and maintenance personnel handling the forklift.
After analysis, the maintenance schedule can be determined. It can be conducted on a daily, monthly, quarterly, semi-yearly, or yearly basis. By sticking to the recommended schedule, the forklift can be kept in top shape, prolong its use, and reduce any repair costs and production losses in the future.
Tips on Forklift Maintenance
Here are some general pointers to keep in mind when maintaining and handling forklifts:
- Keep the forklift clean all the time to make detecting defective and worn-out parts easier. Use water when cleaning and stay away from any flammable cleansing products.
- Only a trained professional should be allowed to inspect and maintain forklifts. Only qualified servicemen should be allowed to perform any repairs.
- When replacing or repairing parts, only licensed gas fitters should be called on. The same applies for tire fitting – only qualified tire fitters should be put on the job.
- Always tag the vehicle accordingly and promptly report problems to authorities when dealing with damaged forklifts.
- All parts must be well-lubricated at all times.
- Forklifts need to be fueled and charged at all times.
- Ensure proper functioning of forklift gauges before every use.

Benefits of Evaporative Cooling Units
Evaporative cooling has been around for centuries. Used by the ancient Romans, Persians and Greeks, evaporative cooling methods have proven their effectiveness. While most of us are familiar with the more commonly used compression refrigeration and air conditioning units used in homes and refrigerators, evaporative cooling still has a role to play in both large and small scale cooling needs. Let's take a look at the many benefits of evaporative cooler units. But first, let's learn a little about the evaporative cooler process.
What is Evaporative Cooling?
Evaporative cooling exploits the tendency of warm, dry air to cool when passed over or through water or wet surfaces. The method has been around since ancient eqypt. Long before the advent of electrical fans, Egyptians were hanging wet blankets across there doors and windows to cool the harsh desert air. Over the centuries, evaporative cooling was used in a variety of ways, but it wasn't until the invention of he electrical fan that evaporative cooling became an increasing effective and widely used cooling method. Let's take a look at the modern evaporative cooler.
Modern Evaporative coolers
Affectionately called "swamp coolers" by their designers and mechanics for their tendency to humidify dry air, evaporative coolers use modern technology to give a boost to the methods used by the ancients. A modern evaporative cooler uses either electic fans or blowers to move large quantities of dry external air through evaporative pads. Water is distributed evenly over the evaporative pads, which are made of a special fibrous material through which the air can easily pass.
Benefits of Evaporative Coolers
Evaporative cooling units offer a number of benefits over there traditional air conditioning cousins. Because evaporative cooling does not require a compressor, it is much cheaper to operate than traditional AC. The simple design of the evaporative cooler requires fewer moving parts and components that can fail, making them more reliable. And unlike traditional AC units, the only thing required to operate a evaporative cooler besides electricity is water.
Evaporative Cooling with Reno Forklift
Reno forklift now carries Portacool evaporative coolers. Reno forklift committed to providing the best to the Reno area materials handling industry. And that includes providing equipment that keeps workers cool and comfortable.

Managing NetBIOS Name Resolution
ALTHOUGH WINDOWS SERVER 2003 IS UNQUESTIONABLY a TCP/IP product, a few vestiges of its NetBIOS ancestors still lurk in the shadows. These vestiges make their appearance when you try to resolve a computer name or service name into an IP address when mapping network drives or using other features of Windows networking.
For example, consider the domain configuration shown in Figure. If the Windows client cannot determine the IP addresses corresponding to the domains and their domain controllers, the client cannot authenticate itself or any of its users. If it cannot resolve the names of servers, it cannot connect users to network resources. Name resolution, therefore, is a vital task. You should focus your attention on designing a solid name resolution infrastructure before beginning an enterprise deployment of Windows Server 2003.
Figure. Sample network configuration for analyzing classic name resolution.
This chapter concentrates on classic NetBIOS name resolution to support downlevel clients and applications that rely on NetBIOS name resolution. Chapter 5, "Managing DNS," covers DNS name resolution. Windows Server 2003 can use either or both methods, depending on the situation and configuration.
Because name resolution is integrated into network protocols, the chapter starts with an overview of Windows Server 2003 networking with a focus on the addresses and ports used for name resolution. The focus then shifts to implementation and covers the following topics:

Ria - That somebody was me, the trees had just released their snow on my bonnet and in the semi darkness I looked huge. Tired of all the goings on I had gone for a walk, to collect my thoughts while humming 'I'm dreaming of a white Mulka". I thought it sounded cool so I let my voice swell and reached for the dark blue sky arms open. A big shoveling sound preceded the event. 'Thumb" it went and there was I, a snow hat on my head. "Well now," I said, mouth & chin frozen, "let's just cut to the chase." "Happy Mulka MaraMara! Happy Mulka All Climbers!"
Mara - "Hey Ria! who is that behind you?" As Ria turned I slowly pulled a loose end from my pocket. I tossed the lasso over the unicorn's horn. Of course it came off like a lizard's tail and the now hornless creature spread it's wings, and took off through the trees, making quite a racket. "With this horn we can triangulate." The horn dangled from the loose end, twisting one way and then the other. Everyone who was inside rushed out and gathered around. The horn finally stopped spinning and settled to point directly at...
Susan - Billy Ray who opened the trunk just as Bill slammed it shut. The arrow started to spin and spin wildly....stopping momentarily at each person before it stopped on................omg!!!!!
"Oh NOooooo! Burped the words out of his gills as Fish'N Boots turned a brighter shade of red as if that was possible! "is this "spin the horn!" as he tried to close his eternally opened eyes and placed a set of fins over his face!

Mara Thompson - Loaded Wagon
Mara - At that moment we heard a significant chattering as a scurry of squirrels descended from the twilight trees to check on our order for Mulka food. This year, guest chef "Blue Judy", a glamorous breed of Rifka Squirrel will be heading the cook wagons. Blue Judy pulled the clipboard from her fur and proceeded to read us the menu.
Rifka Squirrel (with permission of the artist - Judy Rifka)
Ria - Singing "I'm dreaming of a white MULKA", I heard everyone getting ready for the festivity meeting. "gad, no way I can make that," I thought. As they all chattered and planned away cheerfully while my voice was fading, I started looking around, found a time slit and sat down, legs over the edge.
I ate my grub in my trekker utensil, had a shot of 7 year old rum and let myself shoot down abyss like slit.
I arrived in a great clear dome of sorts.
A little old guy, he looked like a Buddhist monk, stared at me as I tried to get up elegantly.
I thought, "of course, a Buddhist on MA, that makes perfect sense to me ...."
"Hello," I said politely, "I have just entered this slit, please give me some guidance?"
The monk said, "Have you eaten your rice gruel?"
I replied,"Yes, I've just eaten."
The monk answered, "Then go wash your bowl."
I felt my heart opening in a warm big smile as I recognized the company of ............... another Spartan.

Lee - Looking back, everyone was heading off from the beach wedding when Mark pulled me aside. "What do you think about finally exploring those caves?" I noticed a timeslit just over that dune. We could check it out and be back before they get very far up the trail."
"Sounds like a plan to me, since we're the only ones that seem interested in what's below the surface here." I grabbed my back pack and followed Mark up the trail to the dunes. A couple of monkeys followed along chattering, "run run have some fun" over and over...I must remember to put this all down in my field notes.
As I slipped over the rise of the dune I saw a shimmer in front of me, also...no Mark. He must have gone ahead. The monkeys scampered past me and one by one disappeared with a POP!
"OK guys, wait for me," I mumbled, as I headed for the shimmering air just in front of me and felt a whosh as I moved into the slit.......
December 30, 2011
Mara - After receiving the remote transmission from Mark I was determined to locate him. We'd had our Mulka, and I wrapped up some leftovers to stash in my rucksack. I wasn't certain about Lee's state of mind, since I observed her several times holding an animated conversation with nobody. I stood and made the call, "Group Hug!"
January 6, 2012
Mark - As I climbed exhausted out of the tiny time slit which I could see, through the numbing freezing flurries high atop this mountain, closing behind me like a zipper, I sensed I was not alone. Indeed, I emerged into the middle of a loving group hug which had begun, I learned later, on the other side of the Mulka festivities in the previous year. Now only seconds later, but a lifetime in Gumby Hours, we were being catapulted forward in time via the back draft from the closing slit, into an unknown and unexpected future (unexpected by everyone but Mara). A dark skinned Rene Daumal shouted at us from the sky, "End it now! Complete the story!" and I realized he was the person we had been calling Sammy Davis Junior for quite some time. How could we not see it! It was our creator, Daumal, writing from the 25th or was it the 23rd Century, not Sammy. He had merely disguised himself as Sammy so that he could hide the peradam without incident. And hide it he did. The air was thin from the altitude but I pleaded with my colleagues and pointing upward I said, "Look. We are in the same place but a different time!" SUDDENLY A WHOOSHING SOUND MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR ALL BUT MARA TO HEAR. But Mara, delighted to finally understand what had happened to me, let alone find me, and completely devoid of any need TO hear, explained through the din that after receiving the remote transmission from me she was determined to locate me and had done the only thing she could do which had put us there: Initiate a group hug but first tell Susan "yes head into the future for the vibration unit in the 23rd century" (yes, where Damaul had left it on Mulka morning.) And with that she told me it was now time to connect with the others and then for Susan to get the hell out of there pronto. With that Mara stopped fussing with her costume the wind died down and somehow we all, like her, knew we would be blown to this particular time at this particular place. We took an enormous collective breath.
Susan - Stamping my boots on the snow, laughing hysterically at Mark and winking at Mara,,....thinking, grinning...staring at the sky....I said" I think its time of a leap of faith!"
Mara - Picking up a piece of Belgian chocolate, left over from the balloon drop on Mulka, I popped it in my mouth to savor while considering the options.
"Mark? Could you speak up.. speak up? I can't hear.. can't hear you." We both stood, gazing at the zenith. From afar, "Kali kali oxenfree!" We scampered off to find home base.
Lee - Watching the others, I reminded myself, no need to become restless over the ending of this adventure....as long as there are time slits and a fertile imagination , anywhere is possible, anytime, another collective breath ....and ....and....oohhhhh.....it feels like floating..................
January 7, 2012
Mark - I remembered that once upon a time when I looked at what Daumal had written in his distinct handwriting lying on the desk. It specifically said "I think its time of a leap of faith!" I said why "time of" rather than "time for"? He replied he did that on purpose so we would know when to leave. Susan listened closely. She knew he was talking to her.
Mara - Faith, the unicorn, landed lightly beside me. "I see your horn has grown back," I said somewhat nervously. Nodding her head, she indicated that I should leap onto her back. "It's the time of the leap second," she nickered. "Are we all going?" I asked Faith and everyone else, growing more nervous and wiping my sweaty palms on my pants.
Susan - I slowly rubbed my blue mukluks with my fingers and waited silently in deep meditation as I closed my eyes and listened. The blues was surrounding me once more. The winds started to pick up speed and music filled the spaces between the voices on the ground. The convergence of rich sounds and notes began to amplify and thicken the air leaving no room for chatter. First I felt the feverish steam heading my way. The air started to sweat and swirl with dripping flares of pastel colours. The world was ignited with brilliance before me. The blaze was coming closer and if not for my magical gloves could harm me. I waited courageously on the jutting edge of the rock, teetering on the abyss, contemplating that leap of faith. The leap into 2012, the leap year! Wow, how did Mark know? This was the most important moment in our climb. The noise was deafening. I put my hands to my ears to block out the thundering clamor. The Blues dragon slowed his progression to a slow and long beat, long enough so I could jump on. The year of the dragon on Mount Analogue had arrived.
Susan Shulman - Blues Dragon
Mara - If I get on the unicorn, Faith, where will I go? Will I be going along with the Blues dragon? I could see Susan, as if through the wrong end of binoculars, distant yet clear. Searching, as usual, starts and ends at home. Where is our home? Where is the island of questions? Where the heck are my gloves?
January 12, 2012
Mara - Well... I got on Faith. As the slopes faded below I leaned in and asked, "Are we going home?"
January 13, 2012
Mara - "Ask the others," was the response. I looked around me, in the dim light I saw eyes glowing. I opened my mouth to ask just as the clouds tore free of the moon. The eyes were, instead, peradams. I was alone in the wood with Faith.
Mark - I closed my eyes and leaped into the void. As I drifted in slow motion into the turbulent but flowing notestream, in the distance could see Lee and some monkeys entering the slit behind me. I knew we would meet Susan in the future thanks to Daumal but I did not the details of where and when.
Mara - Oddly, while I approached this climb looking for perspective to let me see my home in a clearer fashion, now I wanted to stay. Is this because I fear the new home I'll see? Is staying a sign of bravery or running from reality? Who am I avoiding? Apparently it is not my obsessive nature, it's still here with me. Ah HA! Well I'll be a rabbit track, I'll be here now... until I'm not. I filled Faith's saddle rucksacks full of the peradams sprang back on her and closing my eyes we rose upwards through the trees.
January 14, 2012
Mark - Giddyup!
January 19th
Mara - All too suddenly the maudlin fairy tale involving rainbows, glitter, candy and dreams began to fade into a rising mist... my knees buckled as Faith turned to me and said, "Now you know why you were frightened, don't you little girl." Holding my head up I said, stoutly, "I'm no little girl either, there is no candy."
Mark Bloch - Pan
Pan, "Is the gold of fields forests and flocks and also madness and panic fear?"
Pan crooned, "I'm willing to overlook your past." I passed out.
Mark - How can I be in three places at once when I am not anywhere at all? Life lately seemed like a constant struggle to make sense of this or that weird time wrinkle when all I wanted to do was surrender and crawl back in my sleeping bag and get some rest before tomorrow's big climb. I knew eventually I would wake up from ONE of these dreams and I'd be back in the tent. MAYBE I ALREADY AM SLEEPING! How would I know? In my dream, or should I say Mara's dream, everything was sweetness and light and unicorns. Should I offer her one of those Dutch candies or, a bamboo comb to comb her horned horsey's pink mane? Or should I just go with the flow and turn into a devil may care Satyr type that she thinks she is dealing with even though I gave that up years ago? Her language was coming out all warped and distorted. That's how I knew it was a dream. Her dream. At first I was drawn into the story line, thinking my course of action actually mattered but then when I knew that it was all an illusion I knew I could just take the path of least resistance and get the hell out of there. It was a coin, lecherous and dark and full of desire on one side, illuminated and confident and serene on the other. Just like the mountain trail. Just like Daumal/Sammy had told us. So knowing I was either about to burst my own bubble or Mara's WITHIN mine, I took the risk and wrote in the snow "If we had any luck at all, the unicorn would be gone by then." I was leaving Mara time to escape. I had the 22nd century vibration unit stored in my backpack and Susan was looking at me funny in her Sammy Davis mask. There really was nothing that could go wrong, no matter what unfolded at this point.
Mara - The past nudges the present and the future relaxes in the supposition there is neither. Meanwhile, back at the Santa Barbara ranch, I scratch Faith between the ears and smile....
January 21, 2012
William - "Damnit….damnit…damnit," the little voice in my head kept exclaiming. I tried to ignore it as I used my ice ax to hew another icy block for the sorry looking snow cave I was trying to build before I froze my ass off.
"Thin air…thin air…thin air."
Oh what does it matter if I take a short break? Maybe lay here…. maybe take a nap?
"Go back…go back…go back!
I continued and made it just big enough for two because if all went well Fish would soon arrive with the provisions.
"Why go back", I shouted to my voice, "I'll just have to start again."
I hacked at the ice until it resembled Fish. He offered me a chocolate.

Susan - Or, I thought I could jump on before the sweet aroma of hot burning patchouli incense permeated my nostrils. I felt his breath steaming around my body. The dragon's tail pounded me instantly, intertwining me as it gripped me tightly. The force knocked me off balance. As I momentarily tried to regain my footing, the creature lifted me into the sky. As I held onto the blue glowing spikes embossed from his iridescent scales, I braced myself for the unknown. Trying not to be fearful, and after many attempts at swinging my torso, I managed to lift my legs over and maneuver myself atop his lumpy tail. That lasted about one second before I felt the power of his jaw on the back of my roughed up red jacket.
In one swift movement, I was floating in space with my arms and legs flailing in the air like a Czech marionette as his teeth controlled my fate. I drew a deep breath, and gingerly looked down. I finally saw what was below me. The land was getting smaller. As nervous as I was, I felt somewhat secure I hoped. Talk about leap of faith Mark. I removed my retractable telescope from my pocket. I screamed as I say Bill directly below me digging in the snow. "Bill …yoo-hoo", right before I saw him slice the ground exposing Fish 'N Boots fin. "Careful, Bill!" I warned, but he could not hear me. He was unaware that Fish 'N Boots was pointing up to me trying to get Bill to look up.
I grabbed some notes from my pocket and hurled them down at him, hoping he would see me. A B-flat and G clipped him, but he was oblivious, obviously more concentrated on his excavation. "Hard to sidetrack him when he is so focused" I laughed.
I heard music rising, colliding into my ears. It was the harp solo from "Born In Chicago". I stared at some creature playing the instrument. Looked like a goat, but standing on 2 legs. The music was intoxicating and if not for my mode of current transportation I would have wanted to investigate and learn more. As I was carried higher and higher the air was thinning. My ears were getting blocked but I knew if I chewed some hemp gum I would be fine. I looked at the clouds zooming by me, morphing into wondrous shapes. I must be hallucinating from the lack of oxygen as my eyes began to burn and glaze over. My lids began to flutter rapidly. I was surrounded by a kaleidoscope of harmonious hues and tones of colours I had never experienced before. Images were revolving around me. I was on a carousel with green kangaroos, orange llamas and blue koala bears! I was getting mesmerized. Round and round and round as I heard the blues dragon in the distance suggest I count the creatures. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7…..!

Mark - .......8,9,10,11,12,13,14
February 8, 2012
William - 18…there, I placed the eighteenth icy block in place on my makeshift ice hut. Another two or three blocks then Fish and I could crawl inside when a dark shadow passed over us. Fish shielded his lidless eyes and looked towards the sun.
"What was that? He pointed to something in the sky but I was ignoring him; completely focused on getting shelter from the winds that threatened to blow us clean off the mountain.
I heard a vibrating thrummmm, then something hit the shelter punching a bowling ball size hole through its side. Fish grabbed my sleeve and we started to run as icy black meteors rained from the sky.
William Evertson - B-flat Meteor Storm
February 11, 2012
Mara - "This isn't Santa Barbara." Picking twigs out of my hair I turned to face Faith as she continued, "We didn't make it past the force field around the island. In fact, I don't think I CAN go beyond the island, being a unicorn and all." Using a tube fit with peradams at each end I searched the mountain slopes for signs of activity. "I can see a supply wagon, but no sign of the others. There does seem to be quite a storm up further."

Constitution Day 2017
On September 17, 1787, the last of the delegates to the Constitutional Convention signed the Constitution. Thanks to the dedication of a woman named Louise Leigh, a law was passed on December 8, 2004 (public law 108-447) designating every September 17 as Constitution Day. Constitution Day is dedicated to the study and awareness of this remarkable document that guides our nation. All schools receiving federal funds and all federal agencies are required to provide material and educate students about the Constitution.
To honor this year's celebration of Constitution Day, Drs. Jean Gabriel Jolivet and John Ackerman of Ashford University's College of Liberal Arts have written an essay that discusses the contributions of Hispanics with regard to the Constitution and the fight for civil rights.
Happy Constitution Day, America!
Hispanics and Our Constitution
Many of you know that "National Hispanic Heritage Month" runs from September 15 to October 15. During that month, we will also celebrate "Constitution Day" on September 17. The overlap of these important celebratory events is a chance to discuss the enormous contributions that Hispanics have made to our country in areas concerning our Constitution and civil rights.
Who are some of the Hispanic citizens and organizations that have supported and defended our Constitution in the past? Balkaran, (2016) rightfully notes that "Very few Americans understand, acknowledge and respect the contributions of one of America's greatest ethnic groups – Hispanics. Never in our history has an ethnic group redefined America as Hispanics have done and continue to do" (para. 1). There is little doubt that the Hispanic culture and presence were felt in North America well before our country was founded. In California, Mexico, Florida, and other Southwestern states the influence of Spanish explorers began and grew decades before the Revolutionary War.
One very important Hispanic American and leader of the modern civil-rights movement that many are not aware of was Dr. Hector P. Garcia, who fought peacefully for the dismantling of segregation signs, racism and discrimination in many Mexican-American communities in the great southwestern states in the 1940s and 50s. His non-violence philosophy was an important tool in dismantling racism and segregation years before Mahatma Gandhi and Dr. Martin L. King Jr. took up their cause for human rights, justice and dignity. Garcia's ideology and commitment towards justice for all later became the cornerstone for the modern day African-American struggle for civil rights in the 1960s. (Balkaran, 2016, para. 2)
Hispanic Americans often suffered similar discrimination and segregation that African-Americans and other minorities did in the early years of our republic. The struggle to gain basic constitutional rights for Hispanic Americans was led by various groups and organizations throughout the centuries. The Japanese-Mexican Labor Association, founded in California in 1903, "began paving the way for economic and social justice for many farm workers while at the same time demanding the right to be treated with respect and dignity that later became the cornerstone of the NAACP's mission" (Balkaran, 2016, Para. 8). Hispanics fought for voting rights decades before the passage of Voting Rights Act of 1964. Who remembers that the "Chicano Moratorium" movement was the largest anti-war movement by an ethnic group in the 1960s? That campaign raised "the level of government accountability, the movement resonated certain abiding, tragic themes and raised the awareness of war as a civil rights issue. The themes of this movement are still causing great dialogue and debates in the current social atmosphere. Without this moratorium, government accountability and awareness of war as a civil rights issue may have not started" (Balkaran, 2016, Para. 11).
Many of these people and groups are not well known to Americans, but they need to be acknowledged and honored for their efforts to forge a more equal and humane nation. All of the individuals and organizations examined share something in common: a vibrant and consistent belief in our Constitution and the core values of civil liberties and civil rights embedded in this document. All sought and are trying to create a nation that upholds and fights for the fundamental ideals found in our Constitution.
Happy Constitution Day! And let's thank the Hispanic community for its contributions to making the United States a better place!

The California T is a strikingly compact car, a fact that boosts its sporty handling dynamics, while still maintaining truly generous cabin space. View more 488 GTB Designed by the Ferrari Styling Centre, the 488 GTB features very sculptural flanks which are the key to its character. Its large signature air intake scallop is a nod to the original 308 GTB and is divided into two sections by a splitter. The overall result exudes a sense of power and performance. A new colour, Rosso Corsa Metallizzato, was developed to underscore this model's supremely sporty character as well as its unique elegance and exclusivity. View more 488 Spider The Ferrari 488 Spider is the latest chapter in Maranello's ongoing history of open-top V8 sports cars, a story that started with the targa-top version of the 308 GTB - the immortal 308 GTS - and which ultimately resulted in the full convertible Spider architecture. Starting with the RHT (Retractable Hard Top) around which the entire car was developed, every area of the 488 Spider has been designed to set new technological benchmarks for the sector. The result is the most powerful and innovative Ferrari Spider ever built, a car that marries the extraordinary prowess of the 488 GTB coupé's mid-rear V8 with the joy of tackling even the most challenging roads surrounded by nature's heady aromas and colours and accompanied by an inimitable Ferrari engine soundtrack.

text: Viterbo to Marsala trains might be a good value for money solution: travelling in Italy by train is often rather cheap and faster than taking a bus indeed Trains leave from Viterbo Porta Fiorentina and arrive at Mozia-Birgi every about 12 hours on average. If travelling with Trenitalia, you need to know the Viterbo to Marsala train schedule: the first train leaves at 19:30, while the last ride is at 19:30. A Viterbo to Marsala train cost about 138.65 €. But how long is the train ride from Viterbo to Marsala? Your journey takes about 19 hours on average.

"Christ is Seen Through Us" 2 Corinthians 4:5-10
We aren't Christ. We aren't the savior of this world. But people can see Christ's love through you. People can see Christ's grace through you. People can learn about forgiveness and mercy, welcome and love, God's presence and peace and good news of grace through you.

So how do I reconcile my fear with my passion? I create a blog and begin my journey of quelling my fear of vulnerability. You'll find posts about personal feelings, along with my own poetry and stories (fictional and non-fiction). Through it all – most importantly – you'll find me, doing what all writers want to do, making my words count.

Leadership development programs include classroom training that's intended to deliver changed behavior. Far too often, nothing really changes back in "the real world." In their Smartbrief article, "The "Dirty Fish Tank' training model and the modern method for developing leaders," Craig Ross, Angie Paccione and Victoria Roberts, analyze why. Here's the golden kernel.
"The standard method for developing employees today remains the 'Dirty Fish Tank' training model: extracting leaders (or any employee) out of their environment, 'cleaning them,' then re-submerging them back into the ecosystem of unchanged practices and policies (the system). Despite overwhelming evidence — and logic — that the model doesn't work, many organizations still bring out their fish scoops and hope isolating leaders will change the environment and the subsequent result generated by the business."
If you "train" leaders and then put them back in the same environment without support, not much is going to happen. So, what can you do about it?
Leadership development and carrying learning back to the job
We know what it takes to apply new classroom learning back on the job. Trainees need to identify a single thing to work on and they need an accountability partner of some kind. Many trainers make this the last thing they teach in class. We need every trainer to take this simple step.
Leadership development and developing on the job
When the aspiring leader returns to the job some things need to happen. The aspiring leader's boss should debrief him or her, review the "one thing," and agree on a simple action plan for making it happen.
New things of all kinds need protection and new learning is no exception. The boss should protect the aspiring leader's time and schedule so classroom lessons can be applied at work. Then, the boss should participate in the apply-review-adjust cycle.

Well, that's a wrap folks.
As the mud settles on the MaD Dash race series for another winter, we can't wait for Spring to get sprung and Summer to ooze its custard rays over this fair land. But don't think we've forgotten that you've taken a substantial quantity of our mud away with/on you…we want it back. Really, we want it back…no kidding.
Better sign-up for our forthcoming events then, so you can bring the mud you stole, back. We'll let you know when you can book, keep watching, keep listening.
Now, our MaD Marshals are an insistent bunch and a little twisted. They thought they were the best judges of not only your ability, but your character too. Like malevolent vultures of doom, they love to watch you struggle and overcome.
"We want to award prizes too."
Only their criteria weren't as straight forward as ours, oh no! sorry for that, but it really wasn't our fault.
So they made you perform like monkeys.
For the marshals' pleasure.
For beer.
And a t-shirt.
You're so cheap, the lot of you.
And we have to say, you didn't let us and your adoring public down. More importantly, you impressed the MaD Marshals. Whether it was by crashing gloriously off-course, through bramble thickets, hauling your sorry self up a steep bank back onto the course, leaping back onto your bike, with a grin as wide as the Cheshire Gap; or wheelying uphill, one handed for 57 yards; or leaping flea-like over a pile of rotten logs, moss and dodgy stonework, placed to make you crash in front of the camera: you the racers, gave us a show and for that we thank you.
So I'm not sure you want to thank our MaD Marshals, but I surely must. Because I live with one of their number and she cooks my tea. For without her and her cohort, the series would not happen. Neither would my tea. As ever, we are indebted.
Despite the conditions, our medical team, Gloucester Event Medics were un-troubled. We hope they enjoyed their snooze. Bless them. We'll provide pillows next time (as well as fruit pastilles). But we know, if you need them, they would be ready. We look forward to working with GEMS in future, as always.
GWR 4×4 give us superb off-road capability, should we need it. If someone needs winching out of a sticky hole, we turn to them. Whether you're on a bike or in your car. I'm sure I saw them measuring-up some of those fatbike tyres mind.
When you're telling your mates/family/riding buddies about the 6 foot drop-off you negotiated with the style and grace of Rudolph Nureyev, just make sure it really was that impressive…Charles Whitton Photography have the evidence. Buy it and burn it if necessary, just don't take a chance that someone might just check.
The pizza was lovely….so I heard. Thanks for eating it all before I had a chance to sample Velo Bakery's wares. To make matters worse, I didn't get a bottle of Stroud Brewery Budding ale either.
Every time we hold an event at Ebworth, we have to pinch ourselves: we are incredibly fortunate to be allowed at this venue, which we consider home. And we are welcomed here, by The Ranger team at Ebworth. Matt and his colleagues put their trust in everyone attending our events: racers, organisers, spectators, the whole she-bang. If each didn't play their part, there would be no racing at Ebworth and Mean and Dirty would be homeless and sad.
And talking of trails, it was a shame the rain soaked all our lovely, twisty, technical singletrack…again. After all the rain we've had in recent months, we decided to preserve those trails today. We know you love those singletracks as much as we do and have missed them, but thanks for being patient and understanding when we avoid them. One thing you can rely on though, if we say there will be an event, an event there will be. Ebworth offers a venue whatever the weather. Rest assured, whatever course we create, it will always be Mean and Dirty. We continue to improve the trail network, building berms and cutting terraces that would make Monty Don proud, to establish the trails as permanent, fun and funky. That requires mud…just a gentle reminder to bring back the mud you stole. Come back in summer and we'll show you what we've been hiding from you.
And that just leaves a final thank you to each and every one of you who have joined us at Ebworth, in whatever capacity, to make it another successful series, that we have had the pleasure to bring for your pleasure.
See you in Summer.
The Mean and Dirty Family.

SEC charges Goldman Sachs with fraud
(Fortune) -- The Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday charged Wall Street's most gilded firm, Goldman Sachs, with defrauding investors in a sale of securities tied to subprime mortgages.
The SEC said it charged New York-based Goldman (GS, Fortune 500) and a vice president, Fabrice Tourre, for their failure to disclose conflicts in a 2007 sale of a so-called collateralized debt obligation. Investors in the CDO ultimately lost $1 billion, the SEC said.
The SEC's civil fraud complaint alleges that Goldman allowed hedge fund Paulson & Co. -- run by John Paulson, who made billions of dollars betting on the subprime collapse -- to help select securities in the CDO.
Goldman didn't tell investors that Paulson was shorting the CDO, or betting its value would fall. When the CDO's value plunged within months of its issuance, Paulson walked off with $1 billion, the SEC said.
This is just the beginning readers. This civil action will turn into criminal, after all the court findings. This process will drag out for years, making hundreds of millions for lawyers. But the bottom line is, those greedy deceitful SOB's are going to answer to thousands of investors who were taken for a ride, including the government. We can now rest knowing justice will be served as the years pass.

Choose one LARGE Desert Rose Selenite, also known as Gypsum Rose. These fragile and beautiful crystals have a very calming, angelic energy. Specimen A is pictured in photo 3, Specimen B is pictured in photo 4.
Despite its rose petal like softness, Desert Rose is a stone that will help you stand your ground and confront any hardship. It will show you how to commit to a project with confidence despite the numerable obstacles. By staying focussed on your outcome you can manage the challenges with an optimistic attitude. Desert Rose will support you in your endeavours to realise your dream.
The Desert Rose is also referred to as the Sand Rose, Selenite Rose or Gypsum Rose. Found in dry, desert regions, each one is said to contain a unique spirit guardian. They have traditionally been used as talismans for protection, overcoming phobias and to help boost self confidence. Particularly helpful for shy or timid children, teens and empath types to help them uncover and confidently express their talents. I highly reccomend researching the metaphysical properties of this stone to see if it resonates with you.

The Story of Daniel Lewis James, writing a novel about a life very different then his and gaining great critical acclaim.... Read more
The real-life story behind the 1980s novel Famous All Over Town, written by a reclusive, young Chicano author named Danny Santiago. The novel received wide critical acclaim, as well as a number of awards. A firestorm hit in 1984 when the New York Review of Books revealed Santiago's real identity: behind the mask of the young author was one Daniel Lewis James, scion of a wealthy, white Kansas City clan with close ancestral ties to Jesse James.

Office Trend Predictions For 2017
It's a new year which means it's time to think about what new design trends we should be looking out for in 2017. Interior designers are really starting to focus on what will boost creativity and productivity in the workplace and what will generally improve a business's working environments for its employees. We have a look at what we should be looking out for in the workplace over the next year and the good news is, it's very focused on employee well-being.
Employee Well-being
Most people would agree that there's nothing worse than spending your working day stuck in a dark stuffy office with poor lighting and cramped space.
To promote productivity and general good health, workspace designs will focus on the well-being of the employees and what will make a positive working environment. This can be down to simple things like the colour used, comfort levels, standing desks, lighting and indoor plants. Also see blog http://www.officeimageltd.co.uk/blog/how-to-design-a-health-conscious-office
The use of grass walls is also a popular trend which we should see even more of over the next year. More businesses are trying to bring the outdoors inside so to speak to help create a more pleasant atmosphere and allow more purified air to flow throughout.
There is also a rise in the demand of standing desks which has been prevalent in the last few years. Having around 45 minutes of standing to every 15 minutes you are sitting at your desk
Collaborative Spaces
We are starting to see more office designs making it possible for employees to share a more communal space and not be restricted to one desk or cubical/ office. It encourages more employee engagement which can promote more creative discussions to flow and can also be more cost effective.
Lounge areas are also becoming more popular as it provides a space where employees can take a break away from their screens and essentially relax out of working hours. This is exceptionally beneficial in hectic workplaces where staff members are constantly on the go and need a space to gather their thoughts or have a quiet five minutes to themselves. It's also a great way to encourage employee interaction away from the work environment and preventing disturbing other staff members at work.
Integrated Technology
If you want to stay ahead in your business, keeping up with the latest technology available is essential. If your office still has old computers from the 1980s then you can expect to have a lot of frustrated staff members. Not only is keeping your hardware up to date very
These office trends are definitely worth considering if you are looking to make your

Guzal is a Tuberculosis specialist who works at a children's TB hospital in the capital city of Tashkent, Uzbekistan. TB treatment typically lasts six months or longer and Guzal gets to know her patients very well during that time. "I consider myself both a doctor and a teacher," she said.
With the stigma attached to TB and the long treatment course requiring patients to come into medical facilities on a regular basis to have their medication intake monitored, part of Guzal's job is keeping the spirits of her young patients positive.
But sometimes, it's Guzal's patients who provide the doctor with inspiration.
Guzal remembers a particular patient, 15-year-old Dilya. "When she came for treatment, the young girl was very emotional," Guzal said. "She always cried and asked, will I be cured?"
To help Dilya focus on an optimistic future without TB, Guzal suggested the young girl participate in a TB education/awareness event for World TB Day, sponsored by Project HOPE and the national TB program. The program, offered kids with TB the opportunity to express their sentiments on the disease using art, poetry and song. The theme of the event was "Children for the World Without TB."
Dilya agreed to participate. "She wrote a story about herself, her dreams," Guzal said.
Dilya's poem revealed her desire to become a doctor one day. "Because of her own experience, she wanted to be able in to treat children with TB," Guzal said.
Here are the words from Dilya's story:
Sog'lom khayot sari
The Way to a Healthy Life
"… I'll try not to think about my disease. I never wish this disease on anybody, even to my enemy…especially to young people like me. I always dream to be a doctor. And my disease only increased my interest to this profession. I'll certainly be a doctor. And now I want to treat children with TB... I believe that it will be truth…. "
With regular treatment, Dilya was cured of TB disease and true to her aspirations, Dilya is now enrolled in a medical college. "After graduating she is going to enter Tashkent Medical Academy," Guzal said. "Her words to me were: 'I will be a children's TB specialist. And I will treat children with TB…TB is curable!'"

The suspect, according to a statement by the Police Public Relations Officer, Abimbola Oyeyemi, was said to have stabbed her husband to death over a minor disagreement between them.
The argument was a result of mistrust between the couple over a business entrusted in the hand of the suspect.
They were said to have fixed a date in December to formalise their union.
The suspect claimed that her action was as a result of torture she was subjected to by her late husband. She was said to have stabbed the late Dauda on the ribs, while the deceased descended on her and also attempted to stabbed her with a broken bottle.
The victim was rushed to Ijebu-Ode General Hospital by policemen attached Igbeba Division, but reportedly gave up the ghost the day after.

On my last computer I had way too many hardware issues to run Linux successfully, it just became a nightmare. I had a Matrox Parhelia which just caused nightmares in trying to get the second monitor to work, not to mention the fact there is very little support for the Soundblaster Audigy. The point to this story is that I am back in Linux and couldn't be happier. I am currently running Red Hat 9.0 with an unmodified kernel (not quit that experienced yet), but I am learning a lot. It feels good not to have to look at Windows too often and also provides me with a good platform for my programming.
I have also made a lot of updates to my Deviant Art Portfolio, which has been a lot of fun. I've moved my sketch album over to there and I might close it down so that I don't need to have both. The drawing I did of "Boo" from Megatokyo got a few good reviews, so I also added my lesser drawings. They are pretty bad, but it's all stuff I would like feedback on.
Right now I don't know what projects are going ahead and what ones aren't. I think that I need to take a day to sit down and prioritize them all and decide which ones to keep and which ones to scrap. All of my projects mean so much to me, I think I would die if I had to delete any of them, but sometimes these things happen.
