Everyone had that feeling: the wish to lay on a sofa or to watch a movie instead of doing something useful. Sometimes it's just impossible to make yourself do something. As a result: deadlines, plans, nerves broken. There are some tested ways to find energy and motivation for both great and everyday actions.
The Rule of One Minute
This rule is called to help those who feel difficulties while performing routine actions. Visiting courses or sports trainings, for instance. There is a Japanese method, according to it one should perform some action during one minute of every single day. In this case, you won't feel serious tension, only a pleasure and satisfaction coming from doing something.
Short-term activities will inspire you, help you believe in your strength and will motivate to moving towards the greater goals. Increase the time gradually, until you reach the required timing.
Of course, this method will fit only to those who aren't oriented on a fast result, but want to get rid of the reason why laziness appears.
The Rule of Three Breathes
That's a perfect way to help yourself in cases when you can't start doing anything: Cleaning, for instance. Say to yourself, that after three deep breathes you'll start. Make three deep, slow breathes. Imagine your first action while doing that: to wet the mop, for example. After your third breath, you'll feel the additional energy. Start at once!
The Rule of a Good Mood
Imagine that you are in a good mood. This advice seems to be silly, yet it really works.
Bad mood and heavy thoughts are often the reasons of your laziness, too. Cheating on your mind is quite an easy thing: just think you're absolutely happy & smile during few seconds. Your thoughts will lead you to some positive events of your past, your mood will get better, and it will be much easier for you to start doing something.
Productive Morning Rule
Students often need to do some things, which are small but unpleasant or irritating. We all tend to delay them for near future. Sometimes you can even specially & consciously "forget" about them… and to hear some not cool words from the lecturer as a result. These activities don't bring pleasure, yet they might become sources of more serious problems when not done.
How to get rid of laziness in this case? Obviously, the way do to that is to finish such tasks. To make the process as flexible for you as it is possible, devote your morning hours to deal with the most irritating tasks. Especially if the task is about the "mechanics": writing a conspectus, for instance.
Your brain is more about doing this kind of tasks in the morning. Additionally, after you're done with any boring job, you feel additional energy load, and will start the rest of your activities with a lot more of enthusiasm.
"Think Less – Do More" Rule
This rule is about long-term goals or projects we often delay to start bringing to life. We think and work out all the possible ways of things to develop, risks, results, even the public opinion according to every stage of the plan.
Of course, if to do something like that, laziness and fear will keep you in their chains tightly. Sometimes you only need to act. Think on the step, and do it. You'll analyze the result later. You might be a genius, but no one will know about that if you don't do anything.
Allow Yourself to Be Lazy (Sometimes)
Nobody is a robot. Sometimes humans might need to let themselves lay on a sofa or watch a movie. What is the most important: don't allow that sofa to become the center of your life. Reward yourself with such "lazy" days after completing any hard & big task.
Don't forget you can have a rest differently, too. Plan a romantic date, go for a bike trip, make our regular day to become a holiday: the more variable your life will be, the less chances there will appear laziness in it.

Most Activity Insight users have experience running a "Vita" report, set up for general use across a college or university, to generate their CV using data stored in Activity Insight. With our customizable CV functionality, you can now create customized CVs for your own personal and professional uses. You may create as many CV templates as you like, each with custom sections, ordering, supplementary text, and record filtering.
Once you've built and saved a template, the report will remember your settings and automatically pull in updated records from Activity Insight each time you open or download a copy of the report.
You will have the option to start with a sample CV and make your own modifications as needed, or you may create your own template from scratch. The following instructions will walk you through the tools at your disposal as you customize your CV.
To create your custom CV, navigate to the Reports utility in Activity Insight and select in the top-right corner of the screen. From here, you have two options:
Vita: Make this selection to start from the sample CV. This is a general, all-purpose CV format, and it may look different from the standard Vita template provided by your university.
This option will prove the easiest and fastest way to customize a CV. You can use the standard structure and make minor changes (such as filtering, drag-and-drop to reorder sections, and setting date ranges) to accommodate your needs.
Blank Document: This allows you to build a CV from scratch. With this option, your personal details will be added to the report for you, along with a sample section to use as a starting point to craft the rest of your report.
This option will allow for the most creativity on your part, since you can craft the entire report from the ground up. This may also be useful for ad hoc requests for specific activity data. For instance, you could select this option to quickly generate a list of formatted citations for your recent Publication and Presentation activities.
Customized CVs are primarily comprised of Activities Sections, which contain citations of your data that already exist in Activities.
To add an Activities Section to your CV, select an existing element in the template, and select the "Add Section" button. Give the new section an appropriate heading, and select "Add Activities."
At this point, you will need to select a Type of activity. The options available for "Type" will reflect the categories available to you in Activities. Let's choose "Awards and Honors" and select the icon to confirm your selection. You will notice your Awards and Honors records stored in Activity Insight now appear in the designated section.
On the right side of this section, locate and select the icon. This will present a list of Activity Options for that section. These will allow you to filter your Awards and Honors records if you only want certain categories to appear. For example, you might want to limit this section to only Awards that were Received, and exclude those for which you were only nominated. By default, all of these filters are unchecked, which means that all records will appear.
Go ahead and choose any filters as necessary, and select "Apply". You will see certain records filtered out of the report based on your selections.
If your data is not up-to-date in Activities, some of your accomplishments may be missing from an Activities Section. Suppose you received an award last week, but you didn't remember to enter it in Activities. Take a moment to save your report template, navigate to Activities, add the new record, and return to your report. If the new record meets your filtering criteria, it will now appear in your customized CV.
To reorder sections, highlight the section you want to move. On the left side of the section, find the drag-and-drop handle . Select and hold this handle, and drag the section to the appropriate location.
You may also want to change how activities are grouped within a section. To dictate how records should be grouped, select an Activities Section, select the icon, and select a field under "Group By". This list is based on the drop-down list fields available for a given screen.
For Activities Sections with data from the Publications (or Intellectual Contributions) screen, you may also change the citation style that dictates the formatting for those entries. You will find this selection under "Display" within the Activity Options pane.
For all other Activities sections, the Display options include indentation, alignment, and bulleted or numbered lists.
You may also add Text Sections to your report when you need to include subheadings, annotations, or a summary of your activities. To do this, highlight an existing section and select "Add Text."
A free-text box will appear for you to add any appropriate notes. You also have a few rich text formatting options like bold, underline, and italicize.
Keep in mind that Text Sections should not be used to enter activity records that do not appear in an Activities Section. If you enter an activity record as text within your customized CV, that record will not be available for all of your reports. Take a moment to add or update this record in Activities so it will always be available in other reports and CV templates.
To reorder sections, highlight the section you want to move. On the left side of the section, find the drag-and-drop handle . Select and hold this handle, and drag the section to the appropriate location.
You also have the ability to adjust the date range for the report. For instance, you can create one CV template to capture the last year's worth of activities, and you can have a second template to capture three years' worth of activities.
In the top-right corner of your report preview, you will see an "Options" tab. Select this tab, and you will be presented with some additional buttons. Select "Date Range". On the Date Range pane, you have the following options:
You also have the option to override the report-level date setting. Suppose you want most of your sections to be limited to a year's worth of activities, but you want to include all of your "Degrees" or "Education" records. In this case, you would set the Start Date and End Date appropriately within the Options tab. Then, highlight your Degrees/Education section and select the pencil icon. In the Activity Options pane, you will find an option to "Ignore dates set for report". This will ensure that all of your Degrees/Education records appear in the report, regardless of the overall date range for the report.
To help you customize the look and feel of your report, there are some text formatting options available to you. You can access these via the "Format Text" button in the Options pane.
Here, you can specify the fonts for the body text, as well as the headings. Below the font selections, you can also adjust some style options like bolding, alignment, and indentation for each of the heading types available.
Keep in mind that once you've built a report template, you can use that template infinitely. In order to do that, you need to save the report. To save, simply select the "Save" button in the top-right corner of the screen. You will be prompted to name the report before saving. Make sure you give the template a unique name, since it will appear among your list of available reports in the Reports utility.
Each time you open the report, it will remember the ordering, filtering, and settings from the last time you saved the template, but it will refresh with any new records or updates that have been entered in Activities.
Once you have finalized the ordering, filtering, and text sections for your customized CV, you may want to export a current version of your CV to share, either within your institution or to an external recipient.
To export your custom CV, open the Options tab within the Report Builder. There are two Exporting options:
The "Blank sections" toggle controls whether sections with no data should appear in the exported copy of your CV. Confirm this setting before you choose your output format.
Once you have configured a CV, you may want to create a different version with minor adjustments. Instead of creating another report from scratch or from the sample template, you can make a copy of your customized CV and make any necessary adjustments to the resulting duplicate.
To duplicate a CV, navigate to the Reports menu. Locate the template that you want to copy. To the right of your saved template, you will find an arrow in the "Actions" column. Select the arrow, and select the Duplicate option from the dropdown list. At this point you will be prompted to name the duplicated report. Give this report a name that will help you easily identify it from your list of reports, and select "Duplicate"
To rename a CV, navigate to the Reports menu. Locate a CV that you have created and saved. To the right of your report, you will find an arrow in the "Actions" column. Select the arrow, and select the Rename option from the dropdown list. Enter a new name for the report, and select "Rename".

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 222111
file conflicts in plib16-devel with plib-devel
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:11:52 EST
Description of problem:
email@example.com today send an email to the Fedora Extras list about
potential file conflicts in FE. One problem is a file conflict between
plib-devel and plib16-devel which both install files under /usr/include/plib. I
believe that plib16-devel should install its files under /usr/include/plib16 and
apps using it should be patched accordingly. Alternativly we could add a
Conflicts: plib-devel to plib16-devel, or completely kill plib16 usage although
I don't know how hard that will be.
First things first : Check if plib16 isn't obsolete by now. I remember having
kept it around for some games that still hadn't been ported to plib 1.8, but
maybe they all have by now. Grepping through build requirements for plib16-devel
should tell us very quickly ;-)
I took the time to check, and indeed plib16-devel isn't buildreq'd by anything
in Fedora 7 (as it was expected), so I've retired the package.
Looks like something has gone wrong with retiring it, plib16 is still present in
the F7 and development repos. Contact rel-eng?
Done, thanks for catching this. No more plib16 in the development tree.

"From the ends of the Earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I." – Psalm 61:2
This Psalm was written by David when he was forced to escape during the days of Absalom's rebellion or after he had narrowly escaped one of Saul's efforts to kill him while hiding in the desert.
David had to be very lonely and scared when he wrote this. He was crying out to God to deliver him from his circumstance.
I am here trying to figure out what went wrong in my own life. I am struggling with a lot of heartbreak. During my time of depression I felt like I'd never be okay again. I felt like I really blew it, like what was done could not be fixed.
I am going to be really honest with my feelings and tell you what I am going through and if I can help someone going through the same thing then blessings can flow from what happened to me.
Almost three years ago my daughter went to live with her dad. Things were not so great between us at that time. I told her since she was living with her father, she would have to change schools, he lived in a different school district. Out of anger I said she could no longer use my address to remain in the school she was in. I reported it to the school and she was not allowed to stay enrolled. To make a long story short, she cried three weeks straight, and her dad had to move mountains to get her back into the school. Needless to say this was very damaging to her and my relationship. She decided that I was not someone she could count on. Truly our bond was broken.
I really didn't mind her living with her father, sure it hurt, but he is her father. If there was any place she chose to live, I am grateful, thankful and blessed that it was her father's house. When a child lives apart from a parent, something dies within that person especially if the parting was under difficult circumstances. The anger she had for me, made her not trust me. She wouldn't invite me to anything that happened with her and school. That meant no football games, no award ceremonies, no meetings with her teacher, no taking her to school, no spending time with her on holidays, no picking her up if she was sick. She feared I would do the same thing and screw it all up again. I was not allowed to be a part of those things. If I came around she would ignore me and the time we did spend together, she made sure that we were never alone. If she came for the weekend, she would have a friend come with her, there was not a time she and I were alone, just the two of us for a long time. I had to respect that she was angry at me, and just be there if she needed me.
I was in a deep pit of depression because of losing her. The time we spend together is limited. She has a social life and is busy. So I count my blessings that she always answers the phone when I call and lets me be mom more and more. We are rebuilding our relationship.
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and he will make your paths straight."
Proverbs 3:5-6
I plan to make this year my best year!
First three questions:
What is my question for God this year?
What is His question for me?
Who will answer first?
Acknowledge God and He will direct your path.
Isaiah 45:18
"For this is what the Lord says-
he who created the heavens,
he is God; he who fashioned and made the earth, he founded it, he did not create it to be empty, but formed it to be inhabited- he says: "I am the Lord, and there is no other…"
What is my question for God this year? I think I already asked God what my purpose is and he answered Ministry and Mission.
What is His question for me? Will I have faith? WOW.
Next consider the weight of what God is asking, he is asking for a commitment, this is serious. If I consent to "let go and let God" the process will begin and I will see things shift, shove, and rearrange to guide my path for what he has planned. He is not asking me for some weak faith, He is asking me for something larger- God is asking me for an ENDURING faith, a faith that will be here daily- for the next 365 days, and the next, and the next- until my mission and my ministry is done. WOW
How does one get this faith? "So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ." – Romans 10:17
Get in church and hear the word of God, spend time in the word, read your bible.
He is asking me to be fully devoted to God. God wants me to become someone who says YES to follow His will. It requires surrender. Life can be different.
There are three requirements:
1. Devotion – this is where the YES comes in. God is asking me to go public. He is asking me to reflect some gratitude for this extraordinary life he has given me. He is just asking me to give him some worship, commit to his work and reflect the wealth that comes from being a part of the kingdom of God.
2. Dependent –The things in my life would not be what they are without his influence. I serve a mighty God. He is in control. I feel I am not talented enough to do any of this, but God enables me. My responsibility is to do what I can. God is everywhere. Where ever he leads me, I will not be alone.
3. Direction- This is not something that God wants me to say "Whoa" to – instead he uses some other words that start with W- Word, witness, wisdom, and work.
He's giving me direction, He has given me a living word – the bible, He has given me an extraordinary life to be a witness, He will give me wisdom, and everything will work according to His plan. God can open doors no one else can shut, and he will shut doors no one else can open.
This evening for my birthday, I invited my daughter out to dinner with me. She did not hesitate. Having her with me was the best gift I could have asked for. I know that all our pain has not passed, and between us there is still love.
That love comes from grace. "Grace is the action of God bringing to pass in our lives good things which we neither deserve nor can accomplish on our own."- Dallas Willard.
This is day one of my extraordinary year!
Grace and peace be with you from God our Father.

Running a standard Windows O/S on a single-use industrial computer is fraught with risks – for example, what would happen if Windows decided to perform an update and automatically rebooted your CCTV system while a robbery was taking place? Or you lost power to all of your tills, causing hard disk corruption which then results in closed checkouts and engineering call-outs? Clearly these are the kind of issues that it would be best to avoid – this is where Windows Embedded and Windows IoT come in.
Many people don't realise that Windows 10 OEM will force all internet connected PCs to install patches and updates automatically, potentially resulting in software compatibility issues and unscheduled system reboots. Windows 10 IoT is the only way to get full control over Windows updates – you can even switch them off entirely!
Windows Embedded and IoT operating systems are designed to work reliably for years and years, often without any human interaction and they do this with help from tools that prevent unauthorised software from running and write protect your files to keep your O/S install 'factory fresh'.
Whichever Windows operating system you have used for your software development, you can be sure that there will be a Windows Embedded IoT O/S that it will run on. If in any doubt, speak to us about a trial Windows Embedded IoT O/S to be sure.

21 Nov Consumerism
The early 20th century was a great time for blacks in Greenwood, OK. The oil boom brought tons of educated, wealthy blacks to the area and it became the Negro Wall Street for many prominent black businessmen.
Prior to its destruction, the predominantly black town was worth over 30 million dollars in today's currency. Money circulated and stayed in the town because everything was black owned. From the airports to the movie theaters, Greenwood money only ever touched black hands.
In 1921, a devastating race riot resulted in the destruction of nearly 2000 homes and over millions of dollars worth of businesses were burned to the ground. From that day on, we were never able to return to that state again.
Here's why….

Disney delivers the goods once again
I would watch the movie just for the infamous horse leap scene. I still don't know how they did it.
tessbrown Jul 01, 2013
This is the sequel to "The Man from Snowy River (2008).
My husband, who loves horses, borrowed the first one for all of us to watch. We all loved it, the actors have matured in this one but it still delivered a good family movie.
aAtomic_kitten2002 Apr 14, 2012
This movie is from 1988

Same as the first one- just a good made for TV Sunday afternoon movie. Great for the entire family. No high-tech stuff (oh well), but still good.

Talk radio host and author of "The Liberty Amendments," Mark Levin criticized New Jersey Governor Chris Christie's (R) record on Thursday.
Levin, in reaction to Christie predicting that the GOP nominee would be a governor or former governor because " I don't believe that we've done well with the experiment of a one-term U.S. senator being president of the United States," said "all I know is these one-term senators, they didn't run New Jersey, which had multiple credit downratings under the current governor. They didn't run New Jersey, which has the highest property tax rates in the entire nation. They didn't run New Jersey when the governor there was appointing liberals, and others, to judicial positions."
Levin also argued that Christie is "pro-gun control" and "pro-amnesty."

In Plymbridge Woods, over the past few weeks, visitors may well have noticed the freshly cut wood within the Douglas Fir plantation. This is the result of Chainsaw Milling operations that have been carried out by Rangers and contractors.
Douglas Fir (Pseudotsuga menzeisii), also sometimes called Oregon Pine or Douglas Spruce, is a softwood species that originates from Western North American. With relatively good durability, it has numerous timber applications.
The Douglas Fir used at PlymBridge, which had been previously felled and allowed to season, was milled and converted into a variety of sizes. This resulting timber will be used on the estate for a number of maintenance projects including repairs to the roadside fencing.

Healthcare Software Testing
Healthcare Software Testing
The second half of 2016 has witnessed the second highest rate of recalls for medical devices since 2000. With 650 medical devices being recalled in the U.S. alone; and the major culprit for this is: Software Errors. Although the U.S. FDA's Office of Science and Engineering Laboratories regulations has been enforcing stricter rules on medical and healthcare software testing and quality assurance since 2012, the high competition and expanding global healthcare market is pushing the boundaries of technologies and making way for new innovations that better support the medical community and patients as well. But with one caveat: more complex software and system designs, which are breeding more errors.
The benefits to using latest technological trends to enhance healthcare service are quite evident, but the data involved to produce these capabilities is not quite appreciated; for one small wrong data bit can shift results from good to bad diagnosis or from data privacy to data breach. So, what does that mean to the world of healthcare software testing?
Software Quality Assurance organizations and Top tier testing professionals are inevitably required to play a strategic role throughout the development cycle to simplify the complexities, ensure compliance to industry regulations, and avoid unnecessary business risks. This is one way to ensure high quality products are introduced in timely fashion to the market with peace of mind that these devices do what they are supposed to do: save people's lives.
The two high level questions that comes to mind when asking the healthcare software testing community about a products health are:
- Is the data of the product validated?
- Is integrity and privacy of patient data assured?
That is where software testing comes into play but on a more technical capacity than perhaps some of the more commonly used web based applications. But there are also multitude of challenges that the SQA need to overcome to deliver on the success of the discipline.
With innovations in healthcare, software complexity is the only constant, as medical and healthcare devices need to inter-operate and share data between multiple applications, platforms (IOS, Android, Azure, Amazon EC2, Google, etc.) and devices. As such, understanding the data flow requirements in the industry, its purpose, and the different stakeholders involved is a must to be able to provide the high quality assurance needed. In addition, stricter regulatory standards requires different certifications and regulatory framework under which the medical devices need to be compliant to in the U.S. and abroad and analyzed for any potential risks relevant to data, security, privacy, and process breach. These include interoperability standards (HL7, NCPDP, CCD/CDA, etc.), conformance standards (HIPAA, FDA requirements, etc.), and healthcare work-flows (IHE, HITSP, etc.).
To overcome these challenges, it is important to recognize that healthcare software testing and quality assurance cannot be a last milestone in a medical device development, but should be actively integrated in the overall development process beginning from the strategy setting session and evolving with the product development to deliver a reliable and risk mitigated product at the anticipated product launch date. This is the agile testing process that we subscribe to here at AwesomeQA. Our experience shows that such a holistic agile approach for product development enables organizations to increase the number of releases of a product by five folds during any given week, at the same time enhance the reliability and customer experience of the product.
Testing in the healthcare industry is becoming a top requirement for testing professionals that are more experienced, more agile and more data integrity savvy than the average tester. They must be stringent and experienced in regards to data scrubbing, data integrity, and database queries, in addition be able to leverage automation to generate data and AI to mitigate the risks associated with testing in the heath-care industry. But that is not enough, for finding the attributes of great testing candidates for the complex medical and healthcare systems is as important as the innovation of the product itself, and can mean the difference between reliable and recalled product.

Friends, Family and Council employees planted a tree on memory of Andy Boecksteans last week. Andy sadly died last year and will be sadly missed by family friends and the many Friends groups for whom he worked alongside.
The Friends of Shenley Park were delighted to join the Mayor of the London Borough of Hillingdon Councillor George Cooper together with Local Councillors Jonathan Bianco,Mike Markham and Douglas Mills for the flag raising ceremony following their Green Flag Award.
Pictured above are the Mayor of the London Borough of Hillingdon together with Local Councillors as mentioned above together with the Friends of Shenley Park.
Your Help Needed
If you can spare any spare time with us on Saturday morning you would be most welcome to join us. We will be re commencing our action days shortly.
Sad News
It was with great sadness that the Friends of Shenley Park learnt of the recent death of Andy Boeckstaens, Green Spaces Area Officer at LB Hillingdon.
We have worked closely with Andy over a number of years to improve the appearance of Shenley Park. He was extremely supportive of the aims of the group and many of the visible improvements to Shenley Park in recent years would not have been achieved without him.
We will miss his good natured enthusiasm for our ideas as well as his professional approach and can do attitude. Our condolences go to his friends and family.

Taking a Break...
The only thing that is border line is my good cholesterol (HDL). Mine is currently 51, which is considered to be an acceptable level, but if it drops a few points, it will be considered low. Last year my cholesterol was 109/54....I dropped in my bad cholesterol this year, but I also dropped in the good. So, I'm going to try to eat some more fish and reduce stress to see if it improves.


text: I am not sure if this is where it goes if it isn't kindly move it to the right place please, thank you. So I got metroid other M last night and have been playing it since I woke up. I got to the point where I learned about the metroids and MB(Funny how the chicks initials are MB) and when samus leaves the room telling her to stay there until she returns.

Rare disease institute looks to business leader to guide strategies and growth
LONG BEACH CA--(Marketwired - September 29, 2017) - The Translational Pulmonary Immunological Research Center (TPIRC), a progressive research, clinical care and patient advocacy center created to advance the treatment of orphan diseases, has announced the appointment of Jon C. Wolfe as its new President of the Board of Directors. In his new role, Wolfe will be responsible for the general supervision, direction and control of the institute's business endeavors. Reporting to Dr. Inderpal Randhawa, Chairman of the Board, Wolfe will also partner with Dr. Randhawa to help guarantee that the entirety of TPIRC's directives, policies and resolutions are carried out.
TPIRC is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation and a rare disease institute combining basic research, cutting-edge clinical care, disease education and awareness and philanthropy under one roof. Located in Long Beach, CA next to Miller's Children's Hospital, TPIRC's research is focused on five orphan conditions: Food Allergy and Intolerance, Adult Cystic Fibrosis, Bronchiectasis, Immunodeficiency, and Airway Inflammatory Disorders.
Although each affects patients differently, concentrating on all five conditions at the research center allows patient populations to be locally cared for in the hospital adjacent to TPIRC, enhances impact by sharing research, medical and advocacy workforce costs and drives improved research discovery and clinical care models thanks to a safe, diverse and collaborative environment shared with local universities and laboratories.
"We are so excited to have Jon join our board as President," said Dr. Randhawa. "As President and CEO of House Advantage and Entourage Investment Group, Jon and his companies are industry leaders and Jon is known in many business circles for his forward strategic thinking, first-rate results and an unrelenting quest for perfection. It is that unmatched skill set Jon has that TPIRC needs and which will be immensely beneficial going forward. We can't wait to see where our new partnership leads us and the successes we bring to TPIRC overall," concluded Randhawa.
"I am very honored to be working with Dr. Randhawa and his entire team on the future of TPIRC," said Wolfe. "They have developed an incredible model with an unsurpassed legacy of success. To be able to support the wider proliferation and expansion of their previous success is a tremendous personal mission for me and among the first of many things I look to accomplish through immediately developing, implementing and monitoring standard business practices while always focusing on extensive fundraising operations.
"Rare diseases require clinical expertise by physicians who are scarce nationally," continued Wolfe. "These conditions lack the population numbers to drive advocacy and philanthropy to quickly impact the lives of those affected. This is what makes TPIRC so special and what presents such a tremendous opportunity for me to affect movement and forward growth," continued Wolfe. "Also, I have spent much of my free time involved in pediatric charities including Make-A-Wish, Olive Crest and more. This new role brings all my loves together in one place. I could not be more excited about the mission."
The Translational Pulmonary and Immunology Research Center is a rare disease institute focused on five orphan conditions: Food Allergies, Cystic Fibrosis, Bronchiectasis, Airway Disorders, and Immunodeficiency. Orphan diseases include rare diseases that affect fewer than 200,000 people in the United States and more common conditions that have been neglected by the pharmaceutical industry. Because the pharmaceutical industry lacks the financial incentive to research, develop, and deliver treatment options for orphan conditions, patients have largely been ignored by the traditional medical community. TPIRC provides a medical home that advances advocacy, research, and clinical care and gives people with orphan conditions hope for a better life. For more information visit www.tpirc.com.

I've had better weeks in my life than the one that just happened. And so when the weather is gloomy and I've have a not-so-great week I get a little homesick. Well, not homesick really, I only really felt true homesickness when I was on day 7 of Nicaraguan stomach parasite and in Miami they told me I was going to miss my connecting flight to LGA. That's really when fight-or-flight kicks in – when someone tells you that you can't go home and then two scumbags try to cut you in line in security, I was like do not even with me right now, I got my shoes off and I'm not afraid to use them
I think I just get nostalgic and romantic about home when I'm feeling a little down abroad. I love living here in Brussels, and being removed from weird stuff that goes on back home like "personhood bills" and shady government BS that prevents Afghan translators from being allowed visas, but sometimes I feeling a longing for those little things that make up my America. Not the America where people think I'm from ("Do you match your underwear with your gun in the morning?" "So do you like pray to McDonalds?") but just my version of home.
Just a disclosure this is not a post to bash Europe or say that AMERICA RULES it's just a list of stuff so chill the f*ck out.
- Slammin' screen doors
- Mosquito bites
- Fireflies
- General sense of optimism. Let's do this!! Done.
- Country stores
- Hanging out on the stoop
- Fire escapes
- People just tellin' it like it is
- Homemade ice cream parlours
- Visible telephone lines along the roads. Just a little reminder that telecommunication doesn't just exist, someone toiled over that so that you can call in sick when you went out too late the night before 🙂
- Smiles. How you doin' beeebay?
- Mason jars
- The back roads
- CVS, Walgreens. And I guess Duane Reade but it's a bit sterile for my taste, never want to chill there for too long. Of course they have it. What don't they have?
- Delis/bodegas. Apparently Taylor Swift can even tell you what a bod-eg is now, but it's pretty cringeworthy.
- Automatic cars and less erratic drivers. I'm always nervous walking behind manual cars here because they roll back after being stopped! And as The Telegraph puts it, the bizarre Belgian "priority on the right" law is like Russian roulette for pedestrians and drivers alike.
- Tree-lined city streets.
- More sushi restaurants that don't close on bogus holidays like "All Saints Day" (okay, I'm definitely calling out BXL sushi restaurants right now, guilty) and that make cool edgy rolls! Although I have seen a "Nutella roll" advertised at Sushi Shop here, if that's not ballsy I don't know what is. At least I have Makisu and their very avant garde menu of fois gras rolls. Euro style.
- American regional accents. Nothing like someone serving you a nice cup of cawwwfee.
- Friendliness. It's not fake! If someone asks you "How are you?" and you feel like sharing your sob story, Americans are all ears! And if they really don't care, I think it's because we just add on the "How are you?" because "Hi" is just too court of a way to greet someone.
- Customer service. Conversations like this: "I got drunk and lost my credit card" "Oh my gosh that is so terrible, we here at Chase are so sorry that you had to go through with that. We'll get a new one to you at your door by tomorrow. Is there anything else I can assist you with today?" Effing brilliant. Except for customer service calls like this fluke….
- Everything is designed with ease and comfort in mind. That's why we invented La-Z-Boys, the drive thru, 24/7, and Dr. Scholls. Is life really better when all your trivial whims can be settled in a five-minute drive to the nearest CVS? Dunno. But probably.
- The city grid system. And our lack of roundabouts. Who needs 'em?
- Fall. I'm not talking about stupid Pumpkin Spice Lattes you basic b*tch. I mean Pumpkin patches, apple picking, donuts, cider, hay rides, and New England foliage.
- Reruns and TV marathons. ❤ Elliot Stabler
- Real men like Elliot Stabler.

Change is in the air in Stars Hollow in the third season of Gilmore Girls. The small town has so many constants–as small towns tend to–and the setting makes the evolution of its residents stand out all the more. Rory is poised to graduate from Chilton and the college application game brings about all sorts of anxieties and pressures, and that's on top of her Jess and Dean feelings. Lorelai's emotional state is driven by what's happening with her daughter, but she also faces ups and downs with Christopher and Sherry's relationship and the Independence Inn. In short, things get more complex, more emotional, and more entertaining.
Season three is one of the most consistent and strong of all of them, and I'm excited our supercaffeinated recaps have brought us here. Let's visit our old friends, shall we?
Airing It Out
Season two ended with situations, shall we say, for Lorelai and Rory. Lorelai and Christopher started a thing and had to the end the thing because of Sherry's pregnancy, and Rory kissed Jess. Oops. The second episode of the third season, "Haunted Leg," got back to those issues and stuck the landing. The Lorelai and Christopher fallout was particularly notable. Christopher got tired of being ignored by Lorelai and Rory and showed up uninvited at Friday night dinner. Whatever Lorelai does wrong–and she screws up somewhat frequently–I hate seeing her hurt, and the fight between her and Christopher was so raw and painful.
The crescendo of their argument made an impression, but it wasn't the only important part. Emily saw firsthand what sort of anguish Christopher caused her daughter, and she got protective. She didn't get warm and fuzzy about it because those words don't apply to Emily Gilmore, but she did shoo Christopher away. Aww.
And Rory. Well, she had to face her conflicted thoughts about Jess. She still didn't act upon them because she's floating down the river of denial, but it was important for Jess to call her out for not writing and sending mixed messages. Rory's been acting selfish, and even though Dean often annoys the snot out of me, he doesn't deserve it.
Favorite quote: "By the way, I think you might be the prettiest girl I've ever seen… outside of a really filthy magazine." – Kirk
What Could Have Been
Poor Lorelai. Every part of the Christopher-Sherry-baby combo is terrible for her. She was thisclose to having it all with the man who fathered her child and who has maybe been the man she's waited for. It was perfectly awful for her to get stuck going to Sherry's baby shower in "Take the Deviled Eggs."
And how could Sherry be so idiotic? Sherry never seemed mean, just too well-meaning. Some people in her shoes would use the occasion to be manipulative and inflict more pain on Lorelai, but I can't quite tell if Sherry went that far or was unintentionally super insensitive. She not only pressured Lorelai into coming to the shower, she also thanked her for putting Christopher back on the right path. Yowch. This helped set me against Sherry along with her obnoxious baby shower (I don't like any sort of showers besides ones involving rain or the hardware in my bathroom).
The event led to one of my favorite mother-daughter bonding moments of the entire series, though, as Lorelai and Rory worked out their anger by throwing deviled eggs leftover from the shower at Jess' car.
Favorite quote: "Green is the new pink!" – Sherry
Dancing and Dean
It's time for yet another charming Stars Hollow event: a 24-hour dance marathon! It sounds fun in theory—and I love the idea of getting dolled up—but the dancing part, I could do without. Lorelai had her eye on the top prize in "They Shoot Gilmores, Don't They?" and dragged Rory into the contest. This episode often finds its way onto "best of" lists for Gilmore Girls and for good reason: It brought a hard to watch ending for Rory and Dean.
Rory has been on the fence about Jess. Well, that's not true. I think she was totally into Jess but wrestling with the fact Dean was the safer and maybe better choice. Love is hard, kids—especially when you're a teenager. Rory acted cruelly towards Dean for most of the dance, and I was embarrassed on her behalf. Dean was eventually the one who had to end it, and I respect him for doing so. Like he said, he's been strung along for too long.
The way Rory fell into Lorelai's arms after the breakup crushed my heart, even with Kirk running laps with his trophy in the background.
Favorite quote: "Sookie, he's a produce man. They'll never find the body, but the squash'll be especially chatty that year."

I was watching a movie yesterday afternoon and Doris Day and David Niven were in an Italian bistro in NY city. On the wall their table was on, was a poster advertising the town Imperia, Italy. That was shown at least twice. It was like a huge neon sign flashing in my face. It was a weird feeling.
I had tried unsuccessfully to meditate and contact Imperia that very morning! I don't know if that is significant or not. A coincidence or her telling me to get a move on! LOL

I was in L.A. (lower Arkansas) last week and caught an ad run by the democratic party critical of Suzanne Terrell and her handling of voting machines and taking outside money, something to that effect. Now I hear Terrell saying she was threatened by Landrieu after the last debate they had. Things are really heating up. If the election doesn't hurry up and get here they might put on the gloves and get in the ring.
Any of you got any feel for how things are shaking out? I haven't heard anything up here on any polling. I did hear that the President was going to be in Louisiana later this week I believe.

Chicken Soup for the Pregnancy Symptom Freakout's Soul
What are the early symptoms of pregnancy and when do they start to happen? Why are symptoms not the smartest way to tell if you're pregnant, and how CAN you tell if you are? If you're losing your mind during a pregnancy scare, and finding symptoms everywhere you look, here's some on-target information and a dose of comfort to help you separate the real deal from the hype.
The luck (or not) of the draw
I'm 19 and my boyfriend is 28. We've been having sex for a year now and we have not been very careful at all. We never use condoms! It's weird though cause I have not gotten pregnant. He usually doesn't ejaculate in me LOL but still. . . . I always joke and tell him he's sterile but now I'm really thinking he is....
Is it safe for him to taste my menstrual blood?
I know having your partner finger you during your period is perfectly safe (while a little messy), but I do have another concern: my boyfriend often puts that finger in his mouth to taste the fluid after he's done fingering. So I was wondering, is it safe to do that while on your period? Like, are there any health risks involved with ingesting the blood?...
She's Under 18: How Can She Get an Abortion?
My girlfriend is 17, and I am 19. We had unprotected sex a few days after she finished her period. I know its foolish to not use protection, however we both decided we didn't want anything in between us. I made certain that I didn't ejaculate inside her. She might be pregnant, but right now I'm really just looking at all the options....
Hopping Mad About Herpes
I've been reading Scarleteen since I was at least 16, and the vital knowledge has kept me safe thus far... UNFORTUNATELY after getting through high school and college completely unscathed and mostly responsible, I finally dropped my guard for a nice, geeky, Christian boy who'd never kissed a girl EVER. And now I have oral herpes. I'm pissed. Really, really pissed....
Do you have to have your period first in order to get pregnant?
Can I get pregnant even though I did not get periods yet?...
Your vagina is NOT a crystal ball. OR: What your doctor really can't tell just by looking.
MMkay, so I'm 21, being doing all the right things with yearly exams, getting the tests I need, etc. I just read an article about how the vagina does not substantially change after intercourse, but the first time I had a pelvic exam my doctor said "you're lucky you're getting this done here, a lot of college clinics don't have virgin equipment." What?...
When is it safest? What about medications?
Lemontree asks: I am 20 years old and have been on the pill for about 2 years now and at first me and my boyfriend (coming to our 3.5 year anniversary! yay) would always use a condom as well just to be that extra safe. But awhile back we discussed not using a condom for our first time and seeing as I was on pill (which I have never missed) knew we would be safe....
I'm not sure I can live with herpes
I am currently living with my boyfriend (who is considerably older than I am) and he gave me genital herpes. He has supported me through the initial outbreak (which was terrifying, painful, and life-altering), and has continued to comfort and discuss our relationship with me....
I might be pregnant, but don't want to tell my parents.
What should I do if I think I am pregnant but I don't want my mum or dad knowing?...

A federal jury tried but failed Thursday to award $50,000 plus attorney`s fees to compensate a 66-year-old woman for the pain and humiliation she suffered from being wrongfully ejected from a Greyhound bus in West Palm Beach.
Jurors deliberated 4 1/2 hours over two days before deciding Greyhound acted unlawfully on Sept. 30, 1984, when it ejected Ethel Lewis, only a couple of hours into a three-day trip from Miami to Las Vegas.
However, the jury of six people, which included one black, rejected Lewis` claim that driver J.W. Hardey, who is white, and Greyhound put her off the bus because she is black.
No punitive damages should be awarded, but Lewis, of Opa-locka, should receive $50,000 plus attorney`s fees in compensatory damages, jurors wrote.
But their verdict is in jeopardy.
After reading the verdict form aloud, Judge Joe Eaton said jurors have no right to award attorney`s fees.
``The fact is, at this moment, we may not know what your verdict is at all,`` he told the jurors, who heard the case in West Palm Beach from Monday to Wednesday.
Eaton said the jurors probably returned the verdict the way they did because they know that lawyers often work on a contingency basis, meaning their fees come out of client`s award, and they wanted Lewis` share to remain intact.
Eaton said he doubted he would send jurors back for further deliberation. If they returned with an award higher than $50,000, it would be clear they intended the additional amount to go for attorney`s fees, which is not permissible, he said.
Attorneys for both sides agreed to research the issues overnight and to try to work out an agreement on the award. All parties, including jurors, are supposed return to court today at 10 a.m.

Santa Fe Day Trips – Capulin Volcano National Monument
In between Santa Fe, New Mexico and Colorado Springs, we happened upon a treasure that we didn't know existed. We saw signs for Capulin Volcano, but honestly, I had never heard of a volcano in northeast New Mexico so close to the Texas border. Then we started seeing this big hill/mountain in the distance and decided that we would stop for a few minutes and check it out.
Capulin Volcano was our first experience with a national monument outside of Texas. Driving up to the top of the volcano was a little harrowing because my husband really doesn't like heights and the drop off was on his side. He got a closeup view of how close to "falling off the mountain" we were, and I got to hear about it! In retrospect, it was not all that high.
The Visitor Center, about half way up, offers a short movie as well as a natural habitat garden featuring native plants and animals. The road continues for another two miles or so to a large parking area that offers amazing views. From the top of the volcano, you have a 360° view that encompasses approximately 8,000 square miles with views of multiple states.
There is a hiking trail that allows you to hike the rim of the volcano. It doesn't look that far, but our attempt to make the full trip was unsuccessful. We made it about one-third of the way before a few factors stopped us. First, the altitude got to us; we were huffing and puffing. Second, the girls and Roy were a little apprehensive of how close to the edge the trail was and how far one might fall before hitting the bottom. Third, and frankly the most important of all, I saw an unusual animal through the brush. I quietly called Roy over and pointed it out. I thought it was a coyote or wolf until he said, "Honey, I think that's a bear!" We saw a brown bear, VERY up close and personal.
I thought this was the best photo opportunity I might have during the entire trip, so I decided to get a little closer and sent Roy and the girls back toward the car. As I crept forward, all I could think was, "I hope it doesn't chase me. I don't think I can outrun it, but I'm going to give it my best shot." All was well, and I'm still here with a once-in-a-lifetime photo for my efforts.
Back at the Visitor Center, we reported seeing the bear to the rangers who said that it was a black bear, despite its brown color, that they estimated to be two to three years old. The girls completed the Junior Ranger booklets and received their first ever National Park Junior Ranger certificates and badges. Watching the rangers interact with the girls as they learned about the history and the science of Capulin and pledged to be responsible citizens was a treat. They clearly loved their jobs and were able to impart their excitement to our children.
Tip: Be sure to pack water and food. We stopped mid-morning and stayed much later than we planned (about hours). There is a vending machine on site but nowhere close to get food. We ended up snacking for a very late lunch as we continued our drive. The granola bars, trail mix, and fruit snacks really paid off that day!

Pepsi F!ZZ Lands Cover of Event Marketer Magazine
We were so thrilled when we opened our mailboxes to find the latest edition of industry trade bible Event Marketer Magazine and our client gracing the cover. OK, so maybe we knew this was going to happen, but to see the fruits of an incredible partnership with our awesome client come to life in print is just killer. Read on to learn more about how once again, PepsiCo took their Super Bowl sponsorship to the next level…
PepsiCo Showcases All New Experiences at Super Bowl 50
As we approached the lower level food court of the Moscone Center in San Francisco, home to Super Bowl 50's NFL Experience, we suddenly saw the bubbles—lots and lots of bubbles.
They were all coming from the PepsiCo F!ZZ experience. Futuristic and sleek, the pop-up environment—designed by PepsiCo's in-house Design & Innovation division and produced by MKTG —was used to promote the company's new F!ZZ beverage concept. There was a winding walkway, a dj pumping fresh tunes, an animated emcee busting neon shades and yes, bubbles.
"If Willy Wonka had a soda shop, it would have been F!ZZ," says PepsiCo senior director of marketing Todd Kaplan. Kaplan is energetic. Bubbly, himself. He looks up at the activation. "I mean, look at this!" he says.
That pep in his step goes beyond the colorful soda concoction topped with sprinkles he's sipping from a plastic orb. The F!ZZ experience is just one part of the company's new strategy to change how consumers view and consider its soda and snacks. And just one element of PepsiCo's multifaceted and multi-brand presence at Super Bowl 50, from the NFL Experience to Pier 70's Kola House to the high-profile sponsorship of the Halftime Show. In the modular footprint at Moscone (handled by MKTG, New York City), consumers selected a "base" flavor shot dispensed using PepsiCo's new touchscreen platform Spire.

PepsiCo Introduces "F!ZZ" at World Maker Faire
F!ZZ, PepsiCo's' newest, most innovative line of soda drinks made its show-stopping debut this past weekend at Maker Faire 2015. F!ZZ is a new way PepsiCo is looking at the future of carbonated-soft drink mixology, which they call "Fizzology," that combines unique and unexpected flavors and ingredients to create an elevated and immersive consumer beverage experience.
Whether Maker Faire goers were attracted to the sleek & inviting, Willy Wonka-esque structure, the millions of bubbles that were being released over the course of the weekend or the upbeat music that was bumping and entertaining the consistent line of consumers eager to try F!ZZ, the popularity of the space surpassed all expectations.
The Experience:
Brand Ambassadors greeted Makers as they approached the entrance ramp and queued up groups of 10 to begin the experience. They began their sensorial journey by smelling flavored scent pipes which tied back to F!ZZ beverages that were offered. Consumers had the option to choose one of the six drinks that most appealed to them.
Each of the beverages began with a Pepsi-base pour, either Sierra Mist, Mountain Dew, Manzanita Sol or Pepsi and included unique toppings such as green apple cotton candy, strawberry pop rocks and watermelon foam to name a few. One of the most popular drinks of the weekend was the "Hulk Smash". The Hulk Smash was made up of Mountain Dew with a lime flavor shot, coconut milk and was topped with frozen lime syrup threads, pop rocks and raspberry foam.
Once the consumer settled on a drink, the group of 10 headed over to the "Fizz Ed" station where they learned to make frozen strawberry and lime "dots" using liquid nitrogen. They also were able to sample the dots that they helped make which was a fun and tasty experience had by consumers of all ages. Once they completed their lesson, they headed over to the Pepsi Spire station to fill up their beaker with their base pours & flavor shots. Following that, they brought their beaker over to one of the "Fizzologists" who then finished off their drink with their designated toppings and "re-FIZZED" their drink with added carbonation.
The bubbles and buzz around F!ZZ not only attracted Maker Faire attendees but the Maker Faire Executive team as well. F!ZZ Grab Life by the Bubbles powered by PepsiCo took home the blue ribbon by winning the "Maker Faire Editors Choice Award" for our outstanding activation. This was just the introduction of F!ZZ and we're excited to be a part of the F!ZZ movement and experience what the future of F!ZZ holds!

Hi Steven here, and thanks for checking out goats as pets.org.
I am passionate about wildlife and in particular the keeping of more unusual animals and birds in domestic environments.
I have reviewed the domestic keeping of a number of more unusual animals and birds and provide websites with information and links to further products on how to keep them.
As well as being fascinating animals to own, goats can provide an excellent source of milk and meat for their owner, and can keep your land practically weed free.
I currently live in rural Devon in south west England. This provides me with excellent opportunities to pursue my interest in domesticating more unusual animals as pets.
To visit some of my other sites reviewing more unusual animals as pets see the links below:

Clif Bar challenges people to ride bycicles to fight global warming
LAS VEGAS Clif Bar has issued a public "2 Mile Challenge," imploring people to leave their cars behind and instead ride bicycles for trips of less than two miles, and is taking that challenge on tour to more than 10 college campuses during October and November in a biodiesel bus with interactive exhibits, videos, commuter bicycles and accessories.
All displays are designed to showcase the benefits and ease of selecting bikes over cars for short trips to help in the fight against global warming. Clif Bar will also donate $25,000 worth of bike gear and other cycling accessories to campuses and communities to help jump start the 2 Mile Challenge among students and the general public.
"Forty percent of urban trips in the United States are two miles or less, but people use their cars nearly 90 percent of the time for those short jaunts," stated Gary Erickson, Clif Bar co-founder. "If we simply rode bikes for those two-mile trips, we'd get in shape, unclog our roads and spare the planet from millions of tons of car-belching carbon emissions, the leading cause of global climate change."
In addition to bike gear for campuses, Clif Bar is donating $5,000 to WorldBike, an international network of bicycle designers and industry leaders working together to provide transportation solutions and income-generating opportunities for the world's developing countries.
The campuses include Arizona State University, Gonzaga University, Northern Arizona University, Santa Clara University, San Diego State University, University of Idaho, University of Utah, University of Oregon, University of Reno, Nevada, University of Washington, Utah State University and Washington State University.
CRN to sponsor research on healthcare professionals' use of dietary supplements
WASHINGTON "Life…supplemented," an advertising campaign managed by the Council for Responsible Nutrition, on Thursday announced that it is sponsoring new research among healthcare professionals to better understand their personal use of dietary supplements and how it may impact the way they counsel their patients about dietary supplements.
"A search of the current medical literature reveals less than a dozen articles in peer-reviewed publications on the subject of personal use of supplements among clinicians, with papers published since 2000 clearly reflecting a growing interest in the topic among academicians," stated Steve Mister, CRN's president and chief executive officer
Mister noted, however, that because of the disparities among definitions of dietary supplements, instruments and populations surveyed, more questions are raised than are answered. "At this stage, it's impossible to say with certainty whether the personal use of supplements by healthcare professionals correlates to their recommendations to patients."
"This represents a significant knowledge gap that needs to be addressed," stated Tieraona Low Dog, director of education for the University of Arizona's Program in Integrative Medicine. "At this time, we do not know how the majority of healthcare professionals view dietary supplements in terms of their own health, or how these views then impact their discussions with patients in the clinical setting."
Results of the survey, which will be fielded during September, are expected to be released in early November.
The online survey has been developed with Ipsos, a leading research firm.
B&L shareholders vote for merger
ROCHESTER, N.Y. Bausch & Lomb on Friday announced that its shareholders voted to approve the proposed merger with affiliates of Warburg Pincus at a special meeting of shareholders held earlier this morning.
"We are pleased with the outcome of today's vote," stated Ronald Zarrella, chairman and chief executive officer of Bausch & Lomb. "On behalf of the Bausch & Lomb Board and management team, I want to thank our shareholders, customers and dedicated employees for their support throughout this process. We look forward to promptly completing the transaction."
The tabulation indicates that more than two thirds of the total shares outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting were voted in favor of the transaction.
In accordance with the terms of the merger agreement, at the closing, each outstanding share of common and Class B stock of Bausch & Lomb will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive $65 in cash, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes. The transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to close early in the third quarter. Pursuant to the merger agreement, affiliates of Warburg Pincus are not required to consummate the merger until after expiration of a "marketing period" of 20 business days following the shareholder vote. Closing of the merger is not subject to a financing condition.

When I found this idea on Pinterest this morning, I knew that I had to share it. This suggestion comes from The Dating Divas but was adapted for the Christmas season. And since today marks the 13th day before Christmas, it might as well be shared while there are still 12 days left.
Leading up to Christmas, leave a different treat with a cute little note for your boyfriend/fiance/husband (or girlfriend/fiancee/wife) to let him know you're thinking about him. Either make your own notes for a personal touch or download the ones provided by Dating Divas to save time and energy.
Do you do anything special to commemorate the 12 Days of Christmas in your house?
