We could not believe our ears when we heard the news: Toxin-Free Gel Nail Polish was on the market… could it possibly be effective? We were excited to put it to the test! Lucky for us, BeauTeaBar.Com is our go to resource for safe beauty products so we were able to get our hands on it quickly!
Aila's Top Coat, "Better than Gel" is truly fantastic! The bottle is so pretty and the polish itself glides on beautifully. It has the slightest gel-like consistency to it, leaving nails feeling firm and strong. On three separate occasions I put this top coat to the test and it never failed me. Probably the most impressive was my 4 day, boot – stomping, high mileage trek through Paris (celebrating my anniversary). I really couldn't believe it when I pulled my boots off each night and saw that my red toe polish was completely intact… not a chip to be found!
I love the story of how the Aila company came to be. The two young founders were college best-friends, often doing their nails together during long chat sessions. They noticed their nails were getting more and more brittle over time. This happening, coupled with their respective careers in medicine and product branding, led them to develop this special polish. I love that not only do their products cause NO harm, they actually contribute goodness to our nails and our nail beds! I bring the top coat with me if I go to the salon for a manicure and the nail technicians are always impressed. I hope that means that the salons will be carrying it soon!
As we have shared with our readers during the past year, safe beauty is more important now than ever. While some people think that our nails and our scalp are not penetrable, the exact opposite is true. Chemicals quite easily leech into our bloodstreams through these tender areas. Our scalp and nails are very porous and deserve the utmost respect and safety when it comes to the products we choose to use on them. Sadly, the typical gel experience at salons is not healthy for us. Its worth reading more about that here.
It is such a relief that companies like AilaCosmetics.Com are creating products that work brilliantly and keep us safe! We are so impressed by this new company! They understand the dilemma that exists between green beauty and effective beauty. They are creating products that work well AND are safe for our body burden. A dream come true!
"We test beauty products to find the safest, most effective products on the market!"

"Build your home business and give yourself choices"
A real home based business opportunity is rarely for sale. But there are some out there.
If you are really excited about something you stumbled across, here is what to do.
There are many, many successful home based businesses out there. But often they are hidden or tucked away - and that is exactly how many home based business owners like it!
If there is no need for public premises for your business, then there are definite advantages to keeping the physical presence of your home business discreet.
Security and privacy are just two possible reasons why someone may choose to keep their location discreet. And another big advantage is being mobile - running your business from anywhere.
A successful real home based business opportunity will one day become available for sale.
You need to keep looking through every channel available - internet, newspaper, word of mouth, even by you advertising that you want to purchase a business. Seek and you shall find... a real home based business opportunity.
Any business opportunity - no matter how easy and enticing it sounds - needs a lot of commitment and consistent work.
If it does not fit 100% with the vision of your life, chances are that you will not have the stamina to pull it through and turn it into a real home based business opportunity.
It is therefore essential that all parts of your life are aligned to take you closer to that vision. If you are unclear on your vision, you might want to review how to get a clear vision.
A very important part of my vision is to work in a team. At the same time I like autonomy. That's why I employed someone even before promoting my service business for health practitioners.
Now I know that it is better to let things grow organically, rather than putting too much strain on them from the start.
It is therefore not necessary that the home business opportunity fulfills your vision 100% now. It only needs to bring you closer to it.
So if your passion is health, then selling sweets does not get you closer to your vision, no matter what.
Whoever wants to sell a home based business opportunity plays an integral part in your future success. They are the ideal mentor to help you along.
Asking these questions lets you find out what sort of person are you dealing with. If you get a quick, open, clear and honest answer, chances are that you will get good support in the future and have found a real home based business opportunity.
If the answer is not get specific or even defensive, maybe then the opportunity is not that real at all.
Sales letters are written to make a sale. A lot of research goes into getting it right. A personal answer to some direct questions will give you a much more realistic view of the opportunity and the person behind it.
You might even find that you do not get an answer that all. That speaks volumes!
Most of the sales letters and initial information give a basic outline of the initial investment necessary. But usually more funds are necessary to really get it going. With the answers you should get a better picture of that.
The second area to look at is the time component: How much time do you need to invest on a daily, weekly or monthly basis? And how many months will it take before a return can be expected realistically.
If you need income now, the opportunity is unlikely to generate a return before 3 months and you need to spend 5 days a week on it, it is not a real home based business opportunity for you at this point in time.
If you have enough savings to cover 3 months living expenses, and the potential return is high enough, then it might be worth taking the risk.
Do you have the skills to do what is necessary? Or are you willing to learn those skills?
Last, but most importantly: how does it fit into your family situation? If the home business is based on phone sales and you have a baby at home, the two might not mix.
The key is to discuss your ideas. It is often very easy to convince yourself that something is great when you are just thinking about it.
When you start talking about it, you might suddenly realize that it feels really strange.
I found choosing someone positive useful, because I do not have to battle against a negative mind-set. When I forgot that once, I had to defend myself so much that I could not get a clear feeling about what was right for me at all.
So the other person is a sounding board for you and might point out some facet that you had not thought about.
Many sales pages offer a Buy-Now-And-You-Save or Only-X-Left-So-Hurry. My guess is that 90% of those are empty threads, aimed at getting you to make a decision while you are excited.
When you go back the next day the same offer will still be there.
If you think it might really get more expensive, contact the seller and ask to hold the price for you until the next day.
A real home based business opportunity needs long-term excitement, not just the heat of the moment. So if it still looks as perfect the next day, go for it and give it all.Go from Real Home Based Business Opportunity

[Urban Planning]
We can't build our cities on red tape
There's no shortage of opinion about new developments in our cities—letters to the editor are filled with condemnation for new buildings and vitriol for the planning system. What I find most frustrating are buildings—both commercial and residential—that meet regulatory standards but do nothing to enhance the lives of their inhabitants, offer even less to the community and are short-sighted in their contribution to the development of the city.
At a time when we have more legislation around building than ever before, why are so many new developments so crap?
The reasons are complex but broadly stem from a shift to a planning system based on legal principles rather than spatial ones.
Since the introduction of the Resource Management Act (RMA) in 1991, development has become an increasingly litigious affair. The planning process can take years and outcomes are often compromised. Consequently, planning has become more about interpreting policy and preparing a case for consent than about engaging in the dynamics of city-making.
The RMA provides a single integrated framework for the sustainable management of all natural and physical resources in this country. While it could potentially be a very visionary piece of legislation, it is held back by defensive terminology. References to "mitigating adverse effects" and ensuring any and all affected people are consulted prompted one wry Australian colleague to observe that the RMA is all about protecting paddocks while involving as many people as possible in the process.
What I find most frustrating are buildings—both commercial and residential—that meet regulatory standards but do nothing to enhance the lives of their inhabitants ... At a time when we have more legislation around building than ever before, why are so many new developments so crap?
Cynicism aside, much of the criticism of the act has been about increased costs and prolonged time frames for development. Most of the amendments so far have been aimed at streamlining processes rather than refining purpose—little has been said about either the tenor of the act or about putting principle into practice within the legislative hierarchy.
The tenets of the RMA are implemented through district plans, which are written and monitored by territorial authorities. It has always struck me as odd how bereft of drawings these documents are. I would have assumed that a plan for a city would contain sketches and drawings that demonstrate the way development should be carried out. Instead, most district plans are vast texts couched in defensive terms. Perhaps because of this, they place an emphasis on quantitative rather than qualitative values that are applied in blanket fashion, with little regard to the unique characteristics of different places.
For example, a property in Auckland City's business zone 2 will have the same development criteria whether the site is in Remuera or Glen Innes. Similarly, in Wellington you'll find houses in Kelburn and Strathmore Park are both regulated by outer residential rules. This approach ignores the nuances of place—the topography, the landscape, the success or otherwise of the existing built form, the social or economic setting.
In some centres, character overlays and town centre plans are being used in an attempt to acknowledge the specifics of place, but this layering of regulations just increases the complexity and doesn't address the development of the area in spatial terms. Urban design panels provide a more holistic assessment of schemes but their recommendations don't carry any statutory weight, so a proposal with a favourable assessment from an urban design panel may still be declined consent because it falls slightly short on, say, parking space numbers or traffic counts.
Another problem with the current system is that there's no understanding about how different regulations work together—a resulting building may comply, but is it a commercially viable proposition? This is frustrating for developers and does little to encourage good design.
The implications for subdivisions are even worse. Regulations don't consider the relationship between the subdividing of land (plot shape, street and block pattern) and the development rules for houses. The result is suburbs where houses have little usable outdoor space, no opportunity to plant large trees and scant privacy between dwellings, to name but a few of the problems.
Current regulations haven't been created with a visionary objective in mind. Rather, they are the result of a defensive position to protect the status quo. This may be a reasonable approach to managing rural areas but it's not an appropriate strategy for new, rapidly growing cities.
So, what to do?
Phase two of the National Government–led RMA review is currently underway and it aims to tackle more complex issues, including the failure of the act to acknowledge urban areas or the process of urban design. This would be a good opportunity to balance the clauses about protection with terms that convey our aspirations for our physical environments. We need to introduce the concept of quality to the planning system.
At district plan level, there needs to be a better understanding of the cumulative effect of regulations when applied to specific sites, and the net effect of these regulations on a location. The present approach will never achieve this. A better alternative would be to use spatial structure planning and building envelopes to map out the framework for the spatial development of an area. This would provide a more meaningful understanding of how development might take place and give greater confidence to developers on how to progress a project.
Last, we need to bring urban design direction and evaluation to the fore, so our cities can start to become more than the sum of their parts.

Lucille, 20 years, Brussel
Hi, there! When I tell people about great opportunities of building their own networks they look at me as if I am crazy haha I got used to it but when I show them my Cooper – and I am a student – all they can do is listen to me more attentively :)) Many my fellow-students have joined the Whole World, so three months working turned to be very fruitful not only for me but also for every single person in the business. And it is so good I gave free time as well although I study and work.
Aigars, 46 years, Riga
My group for 3 weeks grew by 70 people in 4 levels. This means the beginning of a huge team and huge revenues. I saw the future in this project! This is a unique opportunity to start a new life.With Whole World, you open a new page in your life, successful and prosperous. I'm sure Whole World will work very long and successfully. And will make rich millions of people around the world. It is up to us to live in the old page with a state pension or to open a new page in our life. The choice that we now make will determine our whole life.
Derek, 34 years, Helena
$3125 a week – wow! (you will say) But that's what I get for about three weeks already workin in Whole World. And what I like the most is that all I do is meeting my friends and acquaintances communicating, having fun and, if I see that someone is worth building a great business with, then I just see him or her in the eye and say – Kid, you see, I do not work much and get enough money, do you want the secret? I will tell you. They always thank me and I thank you, Whole World!
Ashley, 27 years, Eaglesham
Then Judith, it's my sister's name, showed me Whole World. Well, I never even heard of network marketing but found it very logical and promising. Almost a year of working – I visited many friends in different towns and villages – and that just helped me to earn $50,000! I think of opening a couple of shops in London and a hotel in my home village in a year – because this is only beginning. And hardly many companies dole. Whole World – is more than business. It's a stairway up!
Amie, 35 years, Gold Coast
G'day everybody! My sister has familiarized me with the Whole World. I thought it a good name, since I live in Gold Coast. I supported her though I did not think we would get much money. Time passed and she could leave her job, and my 7 people in one month got about 700 followers!!! I never thought I could get more than $3000 in three months – and now I had it thrice as fast!
Yes, payments occur automatically, building a 7-level partner structure, too.

Contrary to common belief, Drupal's Authenticated user role does not inherit permissions given to the Anonymous user role.
However, it is important to note that all other roles do inherit permissions given to the Authenticated user role. So if you gave a permission to the Authenticated user role, it is redundant to give that permission to any other role. And it fact, in order to keep the already-overwhelming permissions page easy to use, it is usually better not to re-grant permissions to the additional user roles.
An example;
Alice is an anonymous website visitor. Beatrice is logged-in authenticated user (with no additional roles). And Christina is a logged-in moderator with the moderator role (which, in this example has been created by the site administrator).
You want both all user's to be able to comment on articles, but only Alice needs to complete a CAPTCHA, and only Christina can moderate (edit and delete) comments.
You need to give the
post comments and
post comments without approval permissions to both Anonymous user and Authenticated user roles. If you only give those permissions to the Anonymous user, then Beatrice and Christina will need to log out of the website before they can post comments. And their comments won't be linked to their user accounts.
You also need to give the
post with no checking permission (or equivalent for the CAPTCHA module you use) to the Authenticated user role. You don't need to give the
post with no checking permission to the moderator role, since it is inherited from the Authenticated user role.
You do need to give the
administer comments permission to the moderator role though. You'll also probably want to give the
access comments permission to both the Authenticated user and Anonymous user roles.

The surface design class I took this fall really got me into stamp carving. We made small "inchie" sized stamps in class to use on our fabric. It's really addictive. So, with my trusty linoelum cutter and a pile of speedy cut by my side, I spent a bit of time this weekend making these:
Here's a bit from my class. If you're near Lorton, I'd certainly recommend the Workhouse Arts Center. I can't wait until my next class!
Some of the fabric I'm working on. I used several different hand-made stamps on the fabric in the upper left of the photo.
Stamps I carved used to make a background for an art journal page...

Halogen-Free Background
Bromine and chlorine are known to emit toxic and corrosive gases when ignited. In 2003, standards created by the International Electromechanical Commission (IEC) were passed into law to eliminate concerns associated with end of life/disposal of devices containing these chemicals. Initial target areas include consumer electronics and household appliances.
The Dymax Documented Halogen-Free Program
Dymax Halogen-Free conformal coatings, encapsulants, potting compounds, and adhesives are documented by an independent laboratory to meet or exceed standards set forth in IEC 61249-2-21. This international directive defines halogen-free as <900 ppm for chlorine, <900 ppm for bromine and < 1500 ppm total level of both combined. The current test method used for certification is BS EN 14582:2007.
Dymax halogen-free formulations have been the global standard for many years. We offer a wide variety of halogen-free conformal coatings, adhesives, potting materials and more to meet industry mandates without sacrificing performance requirements.

With this release, they have assembled a little box-set sampling of short DJ rants, spliced absurdist tape dubs, a bit of musique concrete, cheesy synthesizer drum-beat masterpieces, and other ephemera. Supposedly put out by the faux-label "Smith & Wessonian Folkways," it's a collection that would make Moe Asch proud! Gently parodying his Folkways Records releases, such as Sounds of North American Tree Frogs, the three 33 1/3 mini-phonograph records and extensive liner notes explore, "The Biological Significance of Those Voices in Your Head, Conceived, Narrated and Documented, with Field Recordings by WFMU, with the cooperation of Our Listeners."

Mind Media Awards – Winners Announced!
This week saw the winners of the Mind Media Awards announced by Stephen Fry at a ceremony in London.
The annual event aims to celebrate open, honest and fair portrayal of mental health in newspapers, online, and on television and radio.
The full list of prize categories and winners was as follows:
Factual Entertainment – Piers Morgan's Life Stories
New Media Award – Mental Health Cop
News and Current Affairs – Channel 4 News: Antipsychotic Drugs for Kids
Documentary – Britain's Biggest Hoarders
Speech Radio – Henry's Demons
Soaps – Emmerdale
Student Journalist of the Year – Ashley Hamer, London College of Communication
Journalist of the Year – Julia George, BBC Radio Kent
Drama – Homeland
Making a Difference – The Sunday Express Crusade for Better Mental Health
Speaking Out – Vasoulla Savvidou (Britain's Biggest Hoarders)
Combating stigma by addressing mental health issues in a sensitive and responsible manner should be a high priority for all journalists and public figures.
Although one in four people will experience some kind of mental health problem in the course of a year (according to the Mental Health Foundation), many will have no direct experience of such conditions, so the information they receive from the media plays a vital part in shaping their views.
And controversies in the past twelve months, such as Jeremy Clarkson's comments on suicide, add even greater importance to this year's Mind Media Awards.

There were few surprises at the Class 4A East Region cross country meet at Bay Brook Park yesterday.
Annapolis' Kristen Nicolini won the individual girls title, and the 00 Severna Park girls bounced back from a defeat in the county meet last week to take the team title.
Arundel's boys took their second team title in as many weeks, but the Wildcats' No. 1 runner, Geoff Warren, was beaten for the individual title by Northern-Calvert's Nick Gramsky, who finished the three-mile course in 15 minutes, 59 seconds. Warren was second at 16:12.

CUFL RUSTLERS Premier Division NorthKick Off: Wednesday 12th October 2016 at 14:00
Location: DIT Grangegorman
Referee: To be Confirmed
Teams: Dublin IT 2 vs Trinity College Dublin 2
Dublin IT and Trinity College played out a stalemate at Grangegorman in both side's opening game of the season.
DIT would take a two goal advantage into the interval thanks to strikes from Colleges & Universities international Aaron Brilly and his Cabinteely teammate Christian Lotefa.
Gavin Fleming's home side could have brought an increased advantage into the half-time break but were wasteful in front of goal. They were stung badly as Trinity would come out in the second half all guns blazing and would dissolve DIT's advantage through a Ronan Hanaphy penalty and strike from Alex Delacoste.

Tomorrow marks the start of the Easter break, and we don't know why, but somehow this dress has a very "Eastery" feel to it. Is it because the yellow reminds us of Cadbury's mini eggs? We're not sure, but we do know that, as lovers of all things 50s style, the cinched in waist and full skirt is high on our list of "likes". It's £160 at Karen Millen. The mini eggs, of course, are considerably cheaper.
Dress of the Day: 50s style shirtdress from Karen Millen

Proving "the trial of the century" had far-reaching impact, Dershowitz shared a story about a surprising world leader who was also captivated by the trial.
Dershowitz relayed the following exchange he had with Israel's prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, about Simpson's trial back in the '90s.

It would not be a good help for people in need of a flash cart because they will probably go to this site (which gives the best flash cart reviews) and read the review of a flash cart that they're considering. I know that there are re-evaluations in some reviews but for some people, that isn't enough. For instance, I read the review of the TopToy DS. The reviewer said that the menu has a lag. A lot of DSTT owners know the solution to that and that is by formatting the card to FAT file system.

Chris Brown & Karrueche Tran: Real Reason She Accused Him Of Cheating
There's been trouble in relative paradise lately — Chris Brown and Karrueche Tran have been lobbing accusations at each other, and HollywoodLife.com can reveal EXCLUSIVELY just why Kae accused Chris of cheating.
Chris Brown, 25, and Karrueche Tran, 26, were trucking along pretty smoothly all summer following his release from prison. However, after a dramatic Instagram from Karrueche and an equally pointed Instagram video from Chris, it looks like they're still in the woods. As HollywoodLife.com previously reported EXCLUSIVELY, Karrueche had accused Chris of cheating on her with Jhene Aiko, 26, and we can now EXCLUSIVELY reveal exactly why Karrueche has been distrustful of Chris.
Chris Brown Cheating On Karrueche Tran: The Real Reason She Accused Him
"The situation is over now, but you really can't blame Karrueche for being on high alert with Chris when it involves another girl," our insider revealed. We're glad to hear that they're doing a little better these days, but it looks like she still can't trust him!
"She's been in that mess with him many times before and she'll be damned if he tries to pull another stunt on her again. She's not going for it."
Karrueche Tran 'Feels Bad About Blowing Up' On Chris Brown
Regarding Chris' close friendship with Jhene Aiko, Karrueche "understands they're friends and all and she's just trying protect her heart. She's human, she's a woman and she knows who women are especially when it comes to Chris Brown.
Karrueche Tran & Chris Brown: Why She'll Never Leave Him
"Everywhere she's ever gone with Chris, she sees how other girls are on the prowl like a hungry cat. They don't even say anything but she can see it in a girl's eyes.
"So, you really can't blame her for being overly protective of herself and Chris," our source says. True enough — after all, he was allegedly tossed out of rehab for engaging in inappropriate relations with a female staffer while he was ostensibly still with Kae!
"She feels bad about blowing up on him though. She has apologized but it's not like she won't do it again. If she thinks for one second he's doing something sneaky or out-of-pocket and even feels like she's lying to him, she's going to call him out on it," our insider finished.
Well, good for Karrueche! She, like anybody else, deserves to be treated with respect in her relationship.
HollywoodLifers, with all this drama and he-said she-said going on, do you think that these two will last? Let us know!
— Amanda Mitchell, Reporting by Eric Ray

I'm taking a short trip - leaving the Twin Cities early Friday morning, getting to Watertown, SD about lunchtime, and then leaving Watertown for Fargo in the evening, and then back to MSP Saturday evening.
I haven't been able to find much info about these small towns and kinda sparsely-populated in-between areas, so I'm looking for suggestions:
- Something for breakfast between here and Watertown.
- Lunch and maybe dinner in Watertown or between there and Fargo.
- Anything between Fargo and MSP.
I haven't been able to find a lot of info - especially menus or reviews - and especially in the in-between areas - little towns on the way from one stop to the other. So, anyone have a favorite restaurant on the way to/from any of these places? Bonus points for somewhere with phenomenal pie...

State Governments vs. the Federal Government
Member Login to Listen/Download MP3 of Entire Broadcast
While some states are approaching financial Armageddon, many people are looking to state legislatures to force the federal government to get its economic house in order by using the Tenth Amendment of the Constitution. Gary Wood from the Tenth Amendment Center (www.tenthamendmentcenter.com) joins the program.
We have been stumping freedom of speech issues the last few weeks. It's clear that on many campuses the speech of certain groups is allowed while the speech of other groups is suppressed. Gilad Ini from CAMERA (www.israeliapartheidweek.com) joins the program to discuss one such even scheduled for this month.
John's extended boralogue tries to answer some listener requests for timelines on the economic and geopolitical events that are rolling over the horizon during the next 70 months. A big fluke factor in all of this revolves around the probability of predictable, but unscheduled "rogue events.

Quotes About My Next Love
Now I must live with the consequences of the choice I made. And I will not call it the wrong choice. That would be foolish and pointless. That choice led me to everything that has happened since, including this very moment, and the choices I make today or tomorrow or next week will lead me to the next and next present moments in my life. It is all a journey, Miss Jewell. I have come to understand that that is what life is all about-a journey and the courage and energy always to take the next step and the next without judgement about what was right and what was wrong.Send Quote
Love of goodness without love of learning degenerates into simple-mindedness. Love of knowledge without love of learning degenerates into utter lack of principle. Love of faithfulness without love of learning degenerates into injurious disregard of consequences. Love of uprightness without love of learning degenerates into harshness. Love of courage without love of learning degenerates into insubordination. Love of strong character without love of learning degenerates into mere recklessness.Send Quote
Mere opinions, in fact, were as likely to govern people's actions as hard evidence, and were subject to sudden reversals as hard evidence could never be. So the Galapagos Islands could be hell in one moment and heaven in the next, and Julius Caesar could be a statesman in one moment and a butcher in the next, and Ecuadorian paper money could be traded for food, shelter, and clothing in one moment and line the bottom of a birdcage in the next, and the universe could be created by God Almighty in one moment and by a big explosion in the next--and on and on.Send Quote

What is the use trying to describe the flowing of a river at any one moment, and then at the next moment, and then at the next, and the next, and the next? You wear out. You say: There is a great river, and it flows through this land, and we have named it History.Send Quote
I once heard a sober alcoholic say that drinking never made him happy, but it made him feel like he was going to be happy in about fifteen minutes. That was exactly it, and I couldn't understand why the happiness never came, couldn't see the flaw in my thinking, couldn't see that alcohol kept me trapped in a world of illusion, procrastination, paralysis. I lived always in the future, never in the present. Next time, next time! Next time I drank it would be different, next time it would make me feel good again.Send Quote
If love is the soul of Christian existence, it must be at the heart of every other Christian virtue. Thus, for example, justice without love is legalism; faith without love is ideology; hope without love is self-centeredness; forgiveness without love is self-abasement; fortitude without love is recklessness; generosity without love is extravagance; care without love is mere duty; fidelity without love is servitude. Every virtue is an expression of love. No virtue is really a virtue unless it is permeated, or informed, by love.Send Quote
Remember that hate is not the opposite of love as people think. � Hate is love standing upside down; it is not the opposite of love. � The real opposite of love is fear. � In love one expands, in fear one shrinks. � In fear one becomes closed, in love one opens. � In fear one doubts, in love one trusts. � In fear one is left lonely. � In love one disappears; hence there is no question of loneliness at all. � Love is when you have known your inner sky. � There is no higher religion than loveSend Quote
Love is like magic and it always will be. For love still remains life's sweet mystery! Love works in ways that are wondrous and strange and there's nothing in life that love cannot change! Love can transform the most commonplace into beauty and splendor and sweetness and grace. Love is unselfish, understanding and kind, for it sees with its heart and not with its mind! Love is the answer that everyone seeks... Love is the language, that every heart speaks. Love can't be bought, it is priceless and free, love, like pure magic, is life's sweet mystery!Send Quote
Maybe a hundred years ago our people should have run away from this place, I said... And then run from the next place and the next place and the place after that? You run once, what makes you think you won't have to run all the rest of your life?... We love moment to moment... Everything changes. One minute we are part of the river, and the next we are joined with the sea.Send Quote
Egotism erects its center in itself; love places it out of itself in the axis of the universal whole. Love aims at unity, egotism at solitude. Love is the citizen ruler of a flourishing republic, egotism is a despot in a devastated creation. Egotism sows for gratitude, love for the ungrateful. Love gives, egotism lends; and love does this before the throne of judicial truth, indifferent if for the enjoyment of the following moment, or with the view to a martyr's crown--indifferent whether the reward is in this life or in the next.Send Quote
At every single moment, we are given the opportunity to choose our future. What we do today will determine what we face next week, next month, or next year. It is at the moment of a particular occurrence that we are called upon to make a choice: Will I do it the way I've always done it, or will I do it a different way.Send Quote
The next moment is as much beyond our grasp, and as much in God's care, as that a hundred years away. Care for the next minute is as foolish as care for a day in the next thousand years. In neither can we do anything, in both God is doing everything.Send Quote
We had no irony when it came to girls, though. There was just no time to develop it. One moment they weren't there, not in any form that interested us, anyway, and the next you couldn't miss them; they were everywhere, all over the place. One moment you wanted to clonk them on the head for being your sister, or someone else's sister, and the next you wanted to....actually, we didn't know what we wanted next, but it was something. Almost overnight, all these sisters (there was no other kind of girl, not yet)had become interesting, disturbing, even.Send Quote

We're currently in post on this film which poses a new challenge for me - it's half in Greek, a language I don't speak. Writer-Director Alkin Emirali has crafted a charming, meaningful look at how pain long in the past affects our choices.
This film is the brainchild of multi-hyphenate Glad Moss, and is an unflinching look at a very tough subject. Glad is a young director who has both strong ideas and a willingness to collaborate - a killer combination. This is one of those chamber piece films, a two-hander, and the performances of our two leads are well showcased by Glad's writing.
This is a dreamy and sexually charged exploration of beauty, and of how we're seen and want to be seen.
The film has premiered as part of the Official Selection at the Nashville Film Festival. Check out the film's progress here.
This was a late phonecall. A late phonecall from Greatcoat Films not only offering a job, but also qualifying that it might be tricky... As with a lot of promos, the director had excited the label with an ambitious and fresh pitch, he had connected with the artist and excited them, but then didn't have the resources to easily achieve his vision. The first editor had been struggling with the way the job was half edit and half VFX composite, and I don't blame her. The Motion Control rig hadn't behaved, the time had run out... from what I heard the shoot was full of all the usual fun and games that remind me why I stay in my comfy post-production chair.
But the director is a real talent, and great cutting-room company, so in I plunged. The task at first was trying to get the flow of the piece working, whilst coping with the jigsaw-puzzle system that had been created by the director's conceit of an infinitely tracking camera. Then came the input from the man himself, MNEK. Uzo (as he introduced himself) is a very sharp fellow with a sensitive, artistic eye. He knew what he wanted, and unusually for a young man in his position showed both warmth and focussed professionalism. Couple that with his astonishing success (a quarter of a billion Youtube views, a track on Beyonce's new album) plus the fact this is a damned good track, you end up with someone you want to please. Hopefully we did.
The director's conceit of an endlessly tracking camera didn't make it completely intact to the final edit, but with Toby at Cheat grading the deep, rich photography, and consistent effort in the edit, we ended up with something rather lovely.

Consequences of Residential Density for Urban Life.
Marans, Robert W.; Zehner, Robert B.
Typical objectives of urban planners are reviewed and 3 are selected as relevant to this study which focuses on density as a measure of the number of dwellings per given land area, as distinguished from number of persons per room. Those selected: (1) consider the juxtaposition of housing and other land uses; (2) relate density to desired patterns of social interaction; and (3) by clustering dwellings around a common open space, aim at creating a sense of place or spatial identity to contribute to residents' feelings of satisfaction. The data from the study are presented to investigate the relationship of these objectives to the reactions of residents living in neighborhoods of varying densities. In general, residents of higher density neighborhoods did not know their neighbors better and were less satisfied with their neighborhood than those residing in areas of lower density. These results indicate that some aspects of behavior, particularly social interaction, may not be related to dwelling unit densities as customarily assumed by planners, designers and social scientists.

Chicago mayor and former Obama chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, concerning the 2008 financial melt-down, famously stated, "You never want to let a good crisis go to waste."
More recently Chris Matthews, MSNBC television commentator, left-wing political hack and Obama worshipper, referencing the disastrous Hurricane Sandy, declared he was "so glad we had that storm last week." Admitting later he had badly bungled the optics of his excited utterance, he was quickly forgiven by the liberal elite because his intention was righteous -- ostensibly affirming the consequences of manmade "climate change."
Now in the aftermath of the tragic Sandy Hook school shootings, the ghouls in the Obama administration, MSNBC, and CNN see this as yet another "good crisis" with a silver lining. They can leverage the heinous murders of 20 little children and advance their long-held passion to demonize responsible gun owners, confiscate privately owned firearms, and destroy the Second Amendment.
Notably, scant blame is leveled at the true sources of this carnage -- America's societal self-alienation from God and the decline of the traditional nuclear family, Hollywood and media glorification of violence, inadequately treated mental disorders, alcohol and drug abuse, and locally, the rise and effect of violent youth gangs.

Quote from Small Wood Burning Stove: Let's Warm Your Room :
At night or at the cold season, your home can be extremely chilly. When the home atmosphere is cold, then you need the right heater to heat your home interior. This heater is important to make sure your home is warm and comfortable even at the cold night or season. The question is how to find the right heater that gives you more advantages if you have small room space? Surely, there are so many options out there but not all of them can be better than small wood burning stove.

12 Things You Didn't Know About Car Wraps
Every time you see an "awesome paint job," is it actually paint? Nowadays, car wraps have become more and more popular, as people see how amazing and innovative it is. With more and more celebrities get crazy designs on their car (Deadmau5 got the "nyan cat" wrapped onto his car) people get intrigued. Here are some of the cool things to know about car wrap.
- It doesn't damage your paint
- Can be taken off without any problem
- There is little to no risk in using wraps
- There are two types of wrap films: Calendered and Cast. Calendered is very thick and has very strong adhesive. Most places do not recommend using Calendered because after a short period of time it will begin to shrink around the bumps and crevices of the car and can lead to bubbles.
- Wrapping is not as permanent as painting a car. If you decide you don't like the colour or the design, you can take it off and start again.
- A wrap will normally last more than four years if you maintain it. Most 3M companys have a seven year warranty.
- There are two brands: 3M and Llumar. Here at Legion Wraps we use 3M because of the quality. Although it is more expensive, in the long run it can be worth it. Llumar is still a very good material, but we will forever stand by with 3M.
- If you don't want to wrap your whole car, you don't have to. Here we can do both partial and full car wraps.
- Wraps can be salvaged after a wreck or inexpensively replaced if it's a small part.
- The cleaning is the same as any other car. Just because it has a wrap doesn't mean you have to suffer to keep it clean.
- Although a wrap can protect your original paint job, it can't protect you from a big rock persay.
- Looks cool, nothing to say about it.
As you contemplate what to do with your car and how to make it cooler. Think, how awesome it would be to have it wrapped. It's no stings attached, cool. Be wise about who you choose to do it, but more importantly, have fun with your car. Be happy and be proud to call it yours.

text: I've been using an 80GB hard drive, formatted to WBFS, loaded with my Wii ISO's to play games on for a while now. I recently got a 320GB drive and partitioned it in to two, and formatted half FAT32 and half WBFS. I loaded all my Wii ISO's on to the WBFS half, and copied loads of video files to the FAT32 half to use with the WiiMC Media Player. The WiiMC Media Player works fine and can find the videos, but neither of my USB Loaders will recognise the fact that a WBFS drive is plugged in to the Wii. Just keep getting errors saying no WBFS partition is found. Any ideas? Have I done something wrong? It is ok to split a drive like this isn't it? I can't be the only one to have thought of doing it! Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

Greet One Another...
Scripture Reading: 1 Chronicles 15:1-16:39 / Romans 16:1-27 / Psalm 90:11-17
We sang a Bill Gaither song years ago, "I'm so glad I'm a part of the Family of God…" I always liked that song because of the people who were singing it with me! Those ties to my home church and church family were strong and valuable. A few days ago, my youngest son visited and ministered in my home church where I grew up. There were some people who remembered me and they had a lot of questions and kind words to share with him. They even had him stand, giving him special recognition in the service as "Jimmy" Clark's son. They valued me by honoring my son!
I haven't seen those people in years but I have fond, special and cherished memories. They were the ones who loved me, supported and encouraged me to pursue God's call on my life. They were always there for me…Sunday School Teachers, Youth Leaders, Care Givers, and a Pastor who mentored me. They were family…
It is a delight to occasionally see them and my heart always swells up with joy. Our hearts connect as we reflect about the past and talk about the present. The Apostle Paul speaks about the Family of God in Romans 16. He refers to a number of people, sharing about the value they brought into his own personal life and to The Kingdom of God. He speaks of Phoebe, calling her a faithful servant and asks the Roman church to care for needs. (Romans 16:1,2)
Paul then gives special greetings to a list of people who were so endearing to him. "Greet" means to welcome someone in a respectful and friendly manner. There are many different ways we can express greetings and Paul admonishes one such way in verse 16, "Greet one another with a holy kiss…"
The practice of embracing and kissing friends/close relatives on the forehead or cheek was common in Old Testament times. This was an expression of brotherly love, appreciation and honor. Paul encouraged the Romans as well as other churches to recognize the deep spiritual ties that held them together, as their biological families often rejected them.
Greeting is often regulated by cultural acceptance and practices. Today, we embrace/hug, shake hands, pat backs or give high fives. There are not too many practices, even a kiss on the forehead or cheek, that are frowned upon as long as they reflect a genuine and godly spirit. Don't miss out on opportunities to express your appreciation, thankfulness and love for others. Like the song says, "Blessed be the tie that binds, our hearts in Christian love…" Be faithful to greet one another…it will do your spirit good!

Dr. Sam Willis navigates narrow roads in Tajikistan's Yaghnob Valley in search of the last Persian ethnic group. The Sogdians once dominated Silk Road trade but conflicted with Islam in the 8th century. Their language survived and is spoken by the Yaghnobi.
Niyoz Karimov welcomes Willis to his remote Yaghnob Valley village. The family speaks an ancient language used on the Silk Road. Professor Saiffidin Mirzozoda explains that forced migration under Soviet rule caused Yaghnobi culture and language decline.
The Soviet regime destroyed most of the Sogdian language. Niyoz teaches village children vocabulary; dwelling foundations date to Alexander the Great. Locals live without modern amenities and have been forgotten by the rest of the world.
A bus stop in the Yaghnob Valley symbolizes Soviet creation of new national boundaries over Sogdiana. Willis journeys to Uzbekistan, where Timur statues replaced those of Marx and Lenin.
Willis reads a quote from a Christopher Marlowe play describing the conqueror's ruthlessness. Soviet scientists reconstructed his face; he is central to a new Uzbek national identity.
Willis takes a high speed rail from Tashkent to Uzbekistan's cultural heart. Europeans in the 19th century stereotyped Central Asia as sensuous and wicked, demonstrated in Silk Road poetry.
Alexander the Great visited Samarkand in 329 B.C.; it was later replaced by Timur's city. A mosque featuring Timurid style architecture undergoes rennovation. At its height, the empire threatened Turkey and China; most of Timur's conquests were Muslims.
The Bibi-Khanym and Registan were in a state of disrepair a century ago, and have since been refurbished. Timur died in 1405, while planning to invade China.
The empire crumbled soon after Timur's death. In 1941, Soviet anthropologist Mikhail Gerasimov exhumed him for scientific scrutiny. Samarkand erected a new statue of the conqueror in a ruler's stance; young Uzbeks pay their respects.
Genghis Khan destroyed Afrosiab in 1220; the city was Sogdiana prior to Arab conquest. Soviets preserved 7th century paintings depicting trade negotiations with visitors, including Chinese traders carrying silk bales.
The Silk Road hub became an intellectual powerhouse during the 9th century. Islamic philosophers like Ibn Sina preserved and translated Aristotle's works. Mathematics are a central concept in geometric building decorations.
Uzbek children learn their forefathers' contributions to science and mathematics. In the 12th century, Al-Khwarizmi's work reached Europe, inspiring a renaissance. Astronomy was also developed in Bukhara.
Turkish silk carpets depend on repetition mathematics. Willis discusses how the West has denied Islamic culture's contributions to its ideas.
Khwarezm residents descend from Iranian colonists; Turkmen were nomads throughout Central Asia. Willis' guide Utkir introduces him to Uzbek food; noodles, dumplings and tea may have come from China or Italy along the Silk Road.
Since independence from Soviet rule, Uzbek craftsmen revived a decorative art that Timur used on structures throughout his empire. Tiles help them reclaim their history.

In the second episode of his series tracing the story of the most famous trade route in history, Dr Sam Willis travels west to central Asia, a part of the Silk Road often overlooked and yet the place of major innovations, big historical characters and a people - the Sogdians - whose role was pivotal to its success. In the high mountain passes of Tajikistan, Sam meets the last survivors of that race, who once traded from the Mediterranean to the China Sea. In the Uzbek cities of Samarkand and Bukara, he discovers how they were built by armies of captive craftsmen for one of the greatest conquerors the world has ever seen - Timur. From here, Sam follows the flow of goods back towards the markets of the west, showing how their trading culture sparked cultural, technical and artistic revolutions all along the Silk Road, and goes back to school to learn where modern mathematics and astronomy were born.

A new adventure has surely begun. Who knows what great things are in store....not me cause I'm poor. Dirt poor to be exact (Get the word pun? I thought it was pretty good) but that just makes for a funner adventure!
Yesterday we got to my apartment complex after trying some Firehouse Subs, and started unloading my stuff. I had lots of memories come back to me, but in all everything just felt like a dream. I've been getting that sensation way to much lately...maybe get it checked out? I don't know, but it was weird.
Well, the light was on in the apartment, but after some knocking, still no luck. I called the office man and he said he was on his way there, and would be there in 30 minutes. Dad decided to unload the entire car and just plop all the stuff outside my apartment and wait. Which we did. ..but in style.
Lucky for us I had my basketball loose and we played a game of horse. I kicked butt. Johnson butt. ..but Uncle Greg ended up winning in the end. Oh well.
After a game of horse, we continued to wait like homeless people outside of my apartment.
Dad said that they were going to hold hands, and pretend to be my dads dropping me off. They received a penetrating glare for that one.
Overall, everything felt a little like a dream...like I was here, but not. Like I'd been here, but not. I'm not completely sure how to describe what I was feeling, but it's definitely a unique one.
I unpacked fairly quickly, to be honest. I couldn't believe how fast I did it, in the amount of time that I did it in. Although, I still have more things than I'd like. I would like to get rid of some stuff still.
Two of my new roommates speak Spanish, and the one that sleeps in my room wants to talk in Spanish with me all day, everyday. WORKS FOR ME.
Everyone seems nice, and I'm excited to start.
To be completely honest though, I feel a little nervous. This is real life! And instead of worrying about matters in the lives of the Chileans, I'm stuck with my OWN life. Bluck. I loved the mission, and sometimes it just makes me so sad to not be teaching every day. To not be doing my contacts every day, even though I try to talk about the gospel as much as I can with as many people I can, its just not the same. Obviously I'm still in the after mission adjustment period. Yes, it's still a struggle to speak in English, wear pants, eat american food...I have yet to wake up later than 7:30 AM, and I still look at my name tag with eyes of longing. But the only thing that's left to do is move forward..and upward, if at all possible.
Lets just hope I can figure out what I'm doing, cause at this point I'm still in dead water...lets get GOING.
Since it's Sunday, I want to share a little food for thought...healthy food. Get it? ...yea stopping.
Anyways I wanted to remind you all to pray every night. There are few things that are as powerful as prayer. He listens. It works way better than wishing on a star, that's for sure. He loves you and wants to not only hear you but bless you, answer you, guide you.
PS. In regards to any English errors...Like I said, #missionafterlife #stilladjusting

The Closing Adventure of Alex the Great... in Chile
Honestly. I don`t even know what to say!! The normal stuff right? Here`s the weekly letter...
The week went well...it was hard with changes that president made. Just cause after hearing for almost a year and a half to NOT do things, and having it drilled in your head, we are now being obligated to do the oppossite. But all I know is that He is obligated to bless you for being obedient.
The schedule change isn`t as much power house go...its like stop go, stop go...etc...and so I feel weaker? like we don`t have as much time.. I don`t know. It just doesn`t feel like the same mission. We had a zone capacitation, zone training...no sé. Our district leader played the violin and it was so pretty. Our zone leaders gave a great training as well.
A*, Y*, y D* are gonna progress so quickly! They have baptismal dates, and they came to church last week..they didn`t come this week, but they are doing great reading and praying and I just adore them. Its great to have two families supporting each other in what they`re doing. We had some very powerful lessons with them this week...I can always feel the spirit,and I`m so excited to see pics of their baptism.
People whistle, we whistle back. People yell "I love you" I yell "BAPTIZE ME!" ...hopefully they learn.
We did have some amazingly spiritual lessons this week...I love that. I think that the mission HAS to be the greatest time of ones life...it`s just to amazing to NOT be.
We did a service painting project...but not just "painting" we did ART! It was so great...I painted the tree top, the mountain, the clouds, the river...yea. IT was super fun to get paint dirty again.
We went to a house and I looked up above the fridge, and the 19 yr old kid had written on some broken speaker "I love you Johnson" with stars and hearts and all that jazz... I was ticked. THEY ARE MEMBERS (even if they are less actives) THEY SHOULD KNOW BETTER.
We did anotehr service project helping kids with school projects and that was super fun. I love HELPING!
Jorge was confirmed this week...and he`s different. De verdad. He`s doing great and helping his family. I really love him. Bring him a tie from up there!
Yesterday I felt like I should go talk to this little old man while waiting for the church to open up to go to Branch Council, and we ended up teaching him..then 2 members ended up coming over and helping us..and it was a real miracle and blessing from the Lord.
Hurrah for Israel! Para Siempre JAMAS!
LOVE YOU ALL...and yea...I guess...I guess I`ll see you soon.

And... in a sweet surprise... a second email. Darling.
Once upon a time there was a silly gal with a fairly interesting life. She`d lived many things and learned more, but alas...God needed her to reach a higher potential. He told her that "if [she had] desires to serve God [she was] called to the work" and to "be strong and of good courage, to be not afraid, neither ...dismayed" and promised her that he would be with her. With trust in Him and "an eye single to the glory of God" she arrived in Chile,Lacking knowledge concerning His plan for her, she put herself to work and lost herslef int he same. She strived to change the world...spreading light and happiness to all. She completed her purpose by inviting and helping. She knew God had sent her to "preach the gospel" ...and felt privileged to be working by his side in "His work and His glory." She better came to know God and Christ. She changed, and became His disciple. Steadfastness made her stay, diligence made her go, and charity made her give everything for the people of Chile.
...And suddenly, as a blink of an eye her time was gone. She knew she`d given it her all. Yet the time had come to remember learn and apply everything.
I was this silly gal, who wanted to serve God my whole life, but I never knew how. And as time passed He helped me understand my purpose. I have served My God with my whole heart, might, mind, and strengh. I love him. I know He lives, as does my Savior and Redentor lives. he loves us and knows us personally.More than we can imagine.f He has a perfect plan for each of us, but it is our responsability to trust him and keep his commandments.
I repeat the words of Ammon,
I do not boast in my own stren
gth,nor in my own wisdom; but behold, my joy is full, yea, m y heart isbrim with joy, and I will rejoice in my God.
Yea, I know that I am nothing;
as to my strength I am weak;t herefore I will not boast of m yself, but I will boast of my God, forin his strength I can do all things; yea, behold, ma ny mightymiracles we have wrou ght in this land, for which we will praise hisname forever.
I know that which the Lord hat
h commanded me, and I glory in it. I do not glory of myself, but I glory in that which the Lord hathcommanded me; yea, an d this is my glory, that perha ps I may bean instrument in th e hands of God to bring some s oul torepentance; and this is my joy.
And behold, when I see many of
my brethren truly penitent,an d coming to the Lord their God , then is my soul filled with joy;then do I remember what the Lord has done for me, yea, eventhat he hath heard my pra yer; yea, then do I remember h ismerciful arm which he extend ed towards me.
I love Him. I will serve Him forever.

Reliant Reveal Policy Series – Observation Status and the Hill Talking Points
Long term care providers and vendors took the Hill during the NASL Winter conference to refresh legislators' minds about the importance of dealing with the 3 midnight rule affecting beneficiary access to their Medicare Part A benefits. While the Notice Act sets precedence for change, no real change can occur until Observation Status is not abused and/or can count full towards the 3 midnight count. ACOs and other bundling efforts are also setting precedence where waiving 3 midnight rule improves access to care in the LTC setting which has proven key in reducing re-hospitalization. More work is needed to see this change to the finish line. NASL ask on the Hill was to fully support cosponsoring the Improving Access to Medicare Coverage Act (S. 843/H.R.1571).
In contrast, Modern Healthcare in their article "HHS: Hospitals aren't gaming readmissions with observation claims", http://www.modernhealthcare.com/article/20160224/NEWS/160229957, points out that research is showing observation stay use is not significant in a hospital's strategic plan to reduce penalties associated with readmissions. Controversial findings to say the least. What do you think?
