Education that goes beyond a degree: An alumnus perspective
by Ed Robinson, Vice President for Academic Affairs
I heard about the NNU experience before I ever came to campus. I remember laying in bed late into the night thumbing through my family's editions of the "Oasis," NNU's yearbook, recording decades of the memories, rhythms and traditions at Northwest Nazarene College. Many nights I drifted off to sleep thumbing through the pictures, wondering if I would have the opportunity to create memories of my own. I dreamed about NNU before I every got there.
When my time came to consider college, there was little hesitation as I made my choice for NNU. With the accumulation of dreams, where else would I go? So I traveled 1,200 miles from West Texas to a campus where I didn't know anyone, students or faculty, to begin a four-year journey that would have a transforming effect on the rest of my life. What I found exceeded every dream.
It didn't take me long to figure out that NNU was going to help me think in ways I hadn't thought before. My professors challenged me to ask questions deeper than the ones to which I already knew the answers. The books I read compelled me to consider the world in much broader terms than my own experience. Many of my courses challenged me to think more seriously about the nature of truth and the depth of my own faith. It didn't take me long to figure out that NNU was much more than a place to make memories for a yearbook. It was a place to establish foundations that would set my direction and shape my character for the rest of my life.
Apparently the promise of the NNU experience was as intriguing to my daughters during their high school years as it was to me almost thirty years earlier. In the mid-1990s, each chose to travel 1,400 miles from eastern Kansas to an unfamiliar campus with unfamiliar people and discovered the same values of service, community, truth and life-long transformation for themselves.
I returned to NNU as a faculty member and administrator in 2011, thirty-eight years after my graduation. Much had changed about the campus—new people, new courses, new books, new buildings—but some things remain the same. NNU remains a place where one discovers the call to serve, regardless of one's profession. NNU remains a community in which life-long friendships are born and nurtured. NNU remains a place committed to the pursuit of truth, especially as it is grounded in Jesus Christ. I know from my own experience and my observation of others that NNU remains a place where transformations occur. I pray that it will always be so.

text: Where we work Our Balanced Lives programmes run in a variety of areas in England and Wales, here's a selection of them York - Our Newest Programme! Diverse Opportunities Our latest programme began in York at the end of last year and has gone from strength to strength. After two years research and development we obtained funding from the Big Lottery to launch the programme. Weekly community programmes are now taking place in an area with a high population of older persons. The programmes have engaged with a diversity of professional partners to deliver a step down service of added value and add depth to the long-term strategy of older people's services in York. Hereford Catering for Rural Needs Running in a rural suburb of the city of Hereford, this is one of the first programmes that Action For Elders set up back in 2011. It has run consistently on a weekly basis and has gone from strength to strength. It's been hugely successful both in improving mobility and tackling the problem of social isolation of older people in the community. Plans are afoot to develop the programme throughout Herefordshire as funding allows. Sheffield Addressing Grief and Depression We have been running programmes in England's fourth largest city since we became a partner of the SISA Department at Sheffield University in 2004. We are currently testing a model which is running in designated Care Homes within the city. It focuses on grief in care homes: with a goal of addressing depression and despair in later life. Initially funded by Comic Relief: this project deals with many complex issues; including changing attitudes to ageing and elder people. It has huge potential. Barry Extra Care Housing Our first programme to be delivered in an Extra Care Housing complex is assisted by volunteers from the offices of Insurance giant Legal and General. Soon to enter its third year; it is a hugely successful programme, both for the beneficiaries and the complex itself. Swansea Encouraging self-sufficiency This group, running weekly in the community since 2011 has become so successful that it is largely self-sufficient, with a committee of older people themselves guiding its development and progress under our leadership. It has consistently delivered on health improvement; leading to less visits to GP surgeries, a reduction in prescriptive medicine and many other contributory factors associated with general well being in later life.

The surface of earth is largely comprised of water, a fact that is oddly enough reflected in the general theme construction of video slots. That is to say that water and sea themed online slots and casino games at Mr Gamez and elsewhere are really quite a popular choice as far theme selections go in this particular industry. Perhaps it is because of the ratio of land to water on our planet, or the fact that large scales of this water have yet to be truly discovered, but something about this theme choice has stuck with players and made it an easily recurring theme from many different top developers over the years.
Since this is such a popular theme selection it can also be assumed, with some confidence as well, that there are some quality games set to this physical tune. The water and sea themed online slots and casino games at Mr Gamez that have piqued some comparable interest include the likes of Dolphin's Pearl Deluxe, Sharky, Battleship and more. Each of these games have the generalised theme in common but of course with their own partially unique takes on said theme. The take away from this for the players is that if they find that this sort of theme excited them then they're in luck because some of the top slots and developers have some underwater connections.
Analysing the Theme of Water and Sea
Apparently the reason these watery themes became popular at first was because of the struggling graphical capabilities of the older video slot games and developers. In this regard the predominantly blue theme still allowed for a degree of thematic immersion without straining any particular processes to bring it onto the reels. Whilst the technologies have drastically improved though this theme has still found its way back onto the reels time and again, more recently with some more dramatic graphical options and animations. Whether or not this is as a result of the earlier tradition, which then became too ingrained and associated to ignore or another reason entirely that keeps water and sea themed online slots and online casino Dubai games at Mr Gamez and the online world over coming back for more.
Though the theme may be a popular one it doesn't necessarily mean it's outplayed, in fact this rather inclines toward the fact that the bigger video slot game developers have therefore dabbled to a degree with said theme and so created some of the more involved and rewarding games to this particular tune.
Final Thoughts on the Watery Natured Theme
So whether players find their favourite water and sea themed online slots and casino games at Mr Gamez or other such gaming sites becomes rather immaterial on the condition that they do so with a mindful eye on the progression of said theme and the games therein. This is because whilst the popularity of this particular theme choice has spawned some truly great video slot games there arec of course the less appealing slots that will also piggy back, so to speak, on the coattails of this popularised theme. Overall though it is good to know that players can find these underwater mysteries around most every online corner of the casino gaming world.

Many business owners decide to change their structure, often from sole proprietor to company or from partnership to company. But what happens with tax consequences?
When you sell a business, you would usually be up for paying income tax since the business has been sold or transferred its assets.
But when you change the structure of your business, ownership of the assets doesn't change - so the ATO have a rollover process. This allows you to transfer assets as part of a restructure without having to pay income tax on that transfer. Yeah!
However, there used to be other tax consequences of transferring depreciating assets when undergoing a restructure. For example, a company transferring a depreciating asset (such as a ute/car, plant and equipment) to a sole trader could inadvertently create a dividend.
With the latest tax change in November 2018, there will no longer be any income tax consequences when your restructure involves the transfers of depreciating assets. This will automatically apply.
Remember, registered tax agents like Team Accounting can help you with your tax planning and compliance.
Your Opinions Wanted on Payment Delays
The ATO writes that invoice payment times in Australia are among the worst in the world, with invoices paid on average, 26 days late. This can affect your cash flow significantly.
The Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman has announced an urgent review of payment times, to measure how late or extended payment practices affect the cash flow of small businesses and family enterprises.
The Ombudsman wants to hear your experience with payment times and what is on your contracts to customers.
Fill out the survey out here: Payment times and Practices
Information gathered will be used to provide advice on how late and extended payment practices might be improved in small businesses.

In an odd move though, Metal Slug 7 - SNK's latest in the franchise, though set just before Metal Slug 4 in the story - has been brought only to DS, shedding any kind of arcade release at all for a pocket debut instead. What's even odder, especially for a huge fan of the series such as myself, who waited forever for Metal Slug Advance, bought a Neo Pocket just for Slug's offering, and even dropped full price for the initial Metal Slug 3 Xbox release, is that there really looks to be no advantage to Metal Slug 7
I'm not telling hardcore Metal Slug fans to pass this one up. In fact, if you're anything like me, that's an impossibility, a new Metal Slug means plus one more purchase; that's just how it goes. Still, when it comes to stacking this one up against the other DS offerings out there, or even the previous Metal Slug games - pocket or otherwise - Metal Slug 7 constantly comes up short. It has a fun core, but there's nowhere to go after it.
Gameplay is obviously the reason the franchise took off in the first place, and Metal Slug 7 feels like a true successor to the series. There weren't any seriously "out there" ideas in this one, such as growing fatter for eating too much, turning into zombies, or branching paths, but as far as the core gameplay goes, this Slug won't disappoint. The three new vehicles are good fun, including the impressively huge Slug Gigant (a huge mech that does battle with, you guess it, other huge mechs), and then two more standard additions in the Slug Truck and battle-suit Heavy Armor. It's a nice little touch of flavor into the otherwise very standard Metal Slug affair, but they're great designs, and the Gigant specifically was done extremely well, housed on stage filled with snow, and plenty of other baddies to decimate as you trample over the world.
Where Metal Slug 7 doesn't deliver though, is staying power. No multiplayer is an unfortunate move in and of itself, but what's really puzzling is that the game was made specifically for DS, yet it doesn't have anything that makes it a larger offering than a standard arcade game. You've got a few challenges to rip through, a very simple front end, and as expected, a area where you can view your saved POW buddies, but that's it. No expansive single player campaign or story format, no endless pile of arrange modes or fun cheats to alter the core arcade game, and no real stat tracking or online offering that connects users to each other for any sort of competitive "I'm better than you are" Metal Slug playing. When in-game, in fact, only one screen is used for action, while the touch screen is used for an extremely simple (very rushed, by the looks of it) mini-map. While I'm perfectly fine with the game running off just the top screen (Metal Slug never needed a 2nd before; why would it now?) there are better options for the extra touch interface and display than a mini-map. It's used to show off where remaining POWs are in the level, but in a game that's more about fast reactions and carnage, I seldom found myself using it at all.
As you'd expect, the animation and overall sense of action in Metal Slug 7 is pretty impressive, and while it looks like most of the frames are kept in the game, all the sprites and pre-existing art has been crunched down to fit on DS, and that can cause some problems. Backgrounds, for example, look fine at first glance, but can be pretty first pass when comparing it to previous Slug titles. Since the game is basically taking pre-made animations and art, and then crunching it down, you also get some odd tearing and strange little pixel shifts during animations. It looks pretty good at a glance, and most players may not even notice the subtle oddities, but hardcore Slug fans will certainly sense a change.
Metal Slug 7 is a fun game, and when all is said and done, it's not about what's there being broken or unpolished overall, but what was left out entirely. There are odd little animation issues, and I could have used more variation in the level designs and concepts, but what it really comes down to is that Metal Slug 7 is a one-shot arcade effort, single player only, and a few challenges to try and bulk up the game ever-so-slightly. It's fun, but when you're finished blasting through it in an hour or so (which is how long a first trip through Easy or Normal will take most gamers), there's almost nothing left to see. The touch screen isn't implemented well, be it for touch or as a second display screen, there's no real connectivity from user to user via any online, stat sharing, or the obvious multiplayer, and outside of playing through the game with various members of the six-person cast - each having a slight edge over the other with specific skills - there's no real reason to play this game more than a few times through. It's fun, and if you're a Metal Slug fan I'd encourage you to still pick it up, as it's more from the franchise many of us love to a stalker-like degree, but when you put it up against other offerings on the system Metal Slug 7 comes up seriously short. What's here is fun. What's missing, however, is staying power.

* Group reiterates annual outlook
* Trading hit by weakness in Italy, Britain, Spain
* Shares down 1.9 percent (Adds further reaction)
By Kate Holton
LONDON, July 20 (Reuters) - Vodafone posted a sharp drop in quarterly organic growth on Friday as an unexpected slowdown in emerging markets compounded tough conditions in Europe, prompting the group to say it would launch a new round of cost cuts.
Growth from emerging markets has helped to cushion the impact of Europe's weak economies in the last two years, but the key market of India showed some signs of slowing in the last three months.
"The significant point from these results is that emerging markets are no longer sufficiently rescuing poor performances from Vodafone's European markets," said Emeka Obiodu, senior analyst for telecoms at analysis firm Ovum.
Vodafone shares were down 1.9 percent in mid-morning trade while European rivals Deutsche Telekom and France Telecom also slipped on the update from the world's largest mobile operator widely regarded as the strongest in the sector.
"It is not a disaster. It is just a slight miss," Espirito Santo analyst Will Draper told Reuters.
"The UK has shrunk, Italy has missed our numbers and the emerging markets growth is still pretty good but it has also clearly slowed in Turkey, India and South Africa."
While Vodafone has outperformed peers in the past year, tough conditions across Europe forced it to cut its medium-term outlook and write down the value of assets by 4 billion pounds ($6.3 billion) in May, as customers sought to save money by making fewer calls and deferring handset upgrades.
The group reiterated its annual outlook on Friday and analysts welcomed the pledge for cost cuts as a sign the group would protect the earnings.
"Inevitably we are now about to embark on a new wave of cost initiatives, it is what you have to do when times are tough," Chief Executive Vittorio Colao told reporters.
Vodafone posted group service revenue of 9.98 billion pounds in its first quarter to end-June, up 0.6 percent compared with a forecast for 0.9 percent. That was down from 2.3 percent growth in the group's fourth quarter, which benefited from the extra leap year day.
Vodafone said the emerging markets region was hit by the inclusion of Australia in the division, which has struggled for some time, while regulatory changes and a change to the way the groups sells data packages hit the numbers in India.
In Europe, Italy and Spain continued to struggle due to tough competition and weak consumer spending, while Vodafone also suffered from weak demand from small and medium sized businesses which use its corporate services. Britain slowed more than expected due to the weakening economy and aggressive pricing from Telefonica's O2 and 3.
Finance Officer Andy Halford said it was difficult to be optimistic in the short term.
"Clearly consumers and businesses remain nervous in many territories, our sense is that we should prepare the business for a few more quarters that are going to be reasonably tough."
In the first quarter, the key figure of organic service revenue which strips out the cost of one-off factors such as handsets was down 1.6 percent on an organic basis in Europe while the emerging markets division was up 6.1 percent.
Colao said the one encouraging factor for the medium term was Germany, which showed a solid performance in part due to the roll out of its next-generation LTE technology, which should be rolled out across other European markets in the next two years.
"Vodafone results provided few surprises but a reminder (if we needed one) that wireless revenues are cyclical and that with the exception of Vodafone's largest European market, Germany, the macroeconomic environment is very tough," Bernstein analyst Robin Bienenstock said in a note.
"Vodafone confirmed full year guidance, which we think the company are still well placed to achieve even with a slight softening of results."
The other boost for Vodafone came on Thursday from its U.S. joint venture Verizon Wireless which reported strong results. That partnership is complicated however by the issue of whether it pays a dividend.
Shares in Vodafone had risen since May on expectations the group would again benefit from a dividend, following a $10 billion payout in July last year to the British firm and co-owner Verizon Communications.
However the stock fell on Thursday when the Verizon Finance Officer Fran Shammo said he did not expect to discuss a payout at the next quarterly board meeting.
Prior to the 2011 payment, the joint venture had not paid a dividend since 2005 which strained relations between the two sides, with Verizon able to block a payout and focus on paying down debt because it had a controlling stake as the owner of 55 percent of the group.
"We are in July and there are a few more board meetings between now and the end of the year. Nothing and I mean nothing..." Colao said, before being interrupted by his finance director Halford, who simply said they would wait to see what happens.

Presentation of witness evidence
|Referral Decision - 16.12.2011
UWINKINDI Jean
50. The parties do not dispute that, on its face, Article 59 of the [Rwandan Code of Criminal Procedure ("RCCP")] could bar the presentation of evidence by an accused or any defence witnesses who are suspected of involvement in an offence.[1] The Appeals Chamber notes, however, that the Referral Chamber interpreted Article 59 of the RCCP as being inconsistent with Article 13(10) of the Transfer Law and therefore inapplicable in any case transferred to Rwanda by the Tribunal pursuant to Article 25 of the Transfer Law. Implicit in this ruling is the Referral Chamber's conclusion that, in light of the Transfer Law, Mr. Uwinkindi would not be precluded from presenting the evidence of a witness suspected of involvement in an offence or presenting evidence on his own behalf. In this respect, the Appeals Chamber recalls that the Rules of the Tribunal guarantee an accused the right to appear as a "witness" in his own defence.[2] It further notes that parties before the Tribunal are permitted to, and do, rely on accomplice witnesses or other witnesses who are suspected of being involved in the commission of crimes.[3]
51. The Appeals Chamber observes that the Transfer Law is not as clear as it could be in relation to the right of all parties to present evidence of witnesses without limitation in any referred case, and notes that Article 59 of the RCCP is ambivalent as to whether the proscription it contains applies equally to witnesses called by prosecutors in Rwanda. The Appeals Chamber is nonetheless satisfied that it was within the discretion of the Referral Chamber to conclude that Article 59 of the RCCP would not be applied in any referred case and that the Transfer Law guaranteed the accused the requisite fair trial rights with regard to the presentation of witness evidence.

Shaunie Begley and Christine Bottross stood Tuesday on the steps outside the Vessel, the sprawling, ovalish 150-foot-high steel structure connected to the recently opened Hudson Yards on Manhattan's West Side.
Ms. Begley posed for a picture as Ms. Bottross snapped away on her camera. She posed again. Another picture. And again, with a slightly different hand gesture this time. On and on this went for several minutes.
Both called themselves "Instagrammers," and their carefully curated photos were destined to be consumed by the nearly 90,000 followers they have between them.
And, possibly, by one very big real estate development.
Questions over who controls a person's social-media content soaked the Vessel in an internet rainstorm this week after the website Gothamist reported on a curious and, some legal experts said, aggressive assertion of copyright by Hudson Yards, the Vessel's owner.
In its terms of service, which are not posted on the property but are available online, Hudson Yards said that it had the right to use any picture taken in the vicinity of the art installation for commercial purposes, with no royalty fees and no restrictions, forever.
Or, in legal speak, by posting your Vessel selfie on Twitter you were giving the company "the irrevocable, unrestricted, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable right and license to use, display, reproduce, perform, modify, transmit, publish and distribute such photographs, audio recordings or video footage for any purpose whatsoever in any and all media (in either case, now known or developed later)."
You also "further authorize Company to store such images on a database and transfer such images to third parties in conjunction with security and marketing procedures undertaken by the Vessel."
It is not unusual for a privately-owned attraction to use visitors' photos in its own promotions. But Domenic Romano, a New York lawyer specializing in entertainment law, said that Hudson Yards wasn't "just asking for the right to use the photos or reshare them on their own social media channels."
"They were basically claiming ownership over the underlying materials," he said.
After much social media derision that was not likely to become part of any Hudson Yards marketing, the development said on Monday it would be "refining the language to be more clear."
And it did. Now visitors "retain ownership of any photographs, text, audio recordings or video footage depicting or relating to the Vessel" that they create.
But if you want to send that photo out to your Instagram fans, you still "hereby grant to Company and its affiliates the right to repost, share, publish, promote and distribute the Vessel Media via such social media channel and via websites associated with the Vessel or Hudson Yards (including my name, voice and likeness and any other aspects of my persona as depicted in the Vessel Media), in perpetuity."
It was a slight tweak — but one that was more similar to what most museums and other public venues currently have, according to Mr. Romano.
"It's the difference between use and owning the underlying right exclusively," Mr. Romano said.
In a statement on Tuesday, a spokeswoman for Hudson Yards said: "As we are a new destination, we wanted to over communicate, be transparent and disclose to all users that we may reshare select social posts on our social channels and website that visitors have already shared publicly on their social channels. This is a process undertaken at major attractions around the city and country."
Ms. Bottross, taking a quick break from instructing Ms. Begley on how to pose, said she was not aware of the hubbub over what control Hudson Yards had or did not have over photos they would share online.
"But sure, they can use it," Ms. Bottross said of her photos.
Ms. Begley said she had no problem, either — and hoped the developer would direct people to where the photos came from. "Can they @ me?" she said, laughing.

Publications of Faculty of Medicine:Efficacy of Power Color Doppler Ultrasonography In Prediction Of Prostate Cancer.: Abstract
Efficacy of Power Color Doppler Ultrasonography In Prediction Of Prostate Cancer.
|Full paper
|Not Available
Objectives: To set the efficacy of transrectal Power Color Doppler Ultrasonography (PCDU), in the prediction of prostate cancer. Patients & Methods : Sixty patient with possible prostate cancer suspected from an abnormal digital rectal examination, DRE or elevated prostate surface antigen, PSA, underwent transrectal ultrasound with Power Color Doppler Ultrasound, PCDU using a 7 Mhz probe optimized to detect blood flow within the gland and along the capsular margin. Color flow was graded on a scale, from grade 0 to grade 2, as regards grade 1- 2 were considered positive and grade 0 negative. Results: Of the sixty patients who underwent histo-pathological confirmation, through trans-rectal core biopsies, 26 patients had a malignant prostate (43.3%), while 34 cases had benign histological findings (57%), 8 patients with BPH, 20 cases have chronic inflammation and 6 cases with focal atrophy. The sensitivity of PCDU was 92.3%, while the specificity was 64.7%, positive predictive value was 66.6%, and the negative predictive value was 91.6% for the diagnosis of prostate cancer. Conclusion: Focal hyper-vascularity on PCDU was associated with increased like hood of prostate cancer. This technique appears to increase the sensitivity and to help identify appropriate sites for biopsy

Gujarat advances, West Bengal lags: Advani
"Gujarat is now one of the most advanced states, while West Bengal under Marxist rule has lagged behind," Mr. Advani said here in Nadia district where his party has put up a candidate for the assembly election.
The veteran leader said the BJP-led NDA government at the Centre had brought significant development to the country and claimed it could have done more had it remained in power for a longer period.
Asking voters not to forget the role of the LF government in opposing computerisation in West Bengal back in 1986, he said the 'tired' ruling combine should be given 'leave'.
Though he refrained from directly attacking the Trinamool Congress in his speech, preferring to fire his salvos at the Left Front, he, however, said that the local Trinamool MLA had done nothing in the last 10 years and therefore should be changed in favour of his party's candidate.

Plan a Last-Minute Family Vacation to Pismo Beach
Summer isn't over yet! There's still time to squeeze in a quick vacay before the kids head back to school, and there's no better place to do your playing than in Pismo Beach.
Take to the Sands – On Wheels
Those funky-looking Segways aren't reserved for sidewalks alone! Self-guided tours are the name of the game so take to the sands of Pismo Beach on a two-wheeled, off-roading rental to get a unique look at the Central Coast and appreciate some spectacular views. Or pile the family into a double surrey for some beach cruising, stopping along the way to check out tide pools filled with sea life, otters, elephant seals, and whales (in season). Bonus: This clever way to get a glimpse of Pismo is sure to up your "cool" factor with the kids.
Get Up Close and Personal with Sea Life
The Central Coast Aquarium gives you and the fam the opportunity to admire the Central Coast's water-dwellers at length. From jellyfish to clownfish, sharks to sea stars, this public visitor center is just steps away from Avila Beach and the boardwalk.
Your kids will never forget the interactive exhibits and hands-on experiences allowing them to truly explore sea life, from floating labs to discovery labs to private tours. There are even feeding tours offering a journey through the aquarium's exhibit hall while an aquarist guide feeds lunch to marine animals and provides attendees with an opportunity to touch some of the animals, including a swell shark.
Strike Out – In a Good Way
Nothing brings a family together and makes memories like some good, old-fashioned fun. Enter: Cosmic bowling from 8 p.m. to midnight on Saturdays at the beloved Pismo Beach Bowl. It's a vacation after all, so let the kids stay up a little later than usual so you can all get a taste of this retro pastime. With an arcade and pool tables, your kids will stay occupied, and with a premium selection of beer, you can kick back and relax.
Plan Your Entire Weekend with the SeaCrest
Looking for even more family-friendly excursions and destinations in Pismo Beach? Allow us at the SeaCrest OceanFront Hotel in Pismo Beach help you plan your time away from home. There is a little something for everyone in our neck of the coast, and we'll make sure everyone in your party is satisfied by their stay in Pismo Beach. Being able to completely enjoy your accommodations makes a Pismo vacation worthwhile, and our pool, hot tubs, and direct beach access make it easy for you and your loved ones to regroup and reconnect before you jump into Fall!

Symmetry in nature is the balanced distribution of complementary parts of the natural world. This balanced distribution is exemplified in the bilateral symmetry of most vertebrae, whose left and right sides are mirror images of one another.
Over millions of years, the human brain has evolved a robust pattern recognition system that allows it to detect natural symmetry. There are far more ways to arrange a structure asymmetrically than there are symmetrically, leading scientists to postulate different reasons for the prevalence of this seemingly unlikely trait. The bilateral symmetry present in the most developed branches of the animal kingdom has been attributed to the ease of spatially coordinating the motor functions of such a body through a central nervous system. This ease of orientation could have provided early bilateral ancestors with an evolutionary advantage that allowed them to survive better than their asymmetrical counterparts.
Another theory has attributed bilateral symmetry to the sexual preference of opposite genders to members possessing the most symmetrical features. Studies have indicated that throughout the animal kingdom, birds, insects and mammals all tend to favor mates with the most symmetrical features, such as tail feathers or wing patterns. Even the perception of human facial beauty is strongly linked with the symmetry of facial features.

Allergies are the sixth leading cause of chronic illness in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Backention. In fact, more than 50 million Americans suffer from allergies each year and spend more than $18 billion on treatment.
You suffer from an allergy when your immune system reacts to a substance that doesn't cause a reaction in most people.
The job of the immune system is to find foreign substances, such as viruses and bacteria, and get rid of them. In people with allergies, the immune system mistakenly identifies a harmless element like pollen or peanuts as a dangerous intruder and begins to produce chemicals to fight against it. This in turn causes the symptoms of an allergic reaction.
Many things can trigger an allergic reaction, which can range from mild and annoying to sudden and life-threatening.
Here are the 10 most common allergy triggers.
1. Pollen
Exposure to pollen, a fine powder produced by trees, grasses and weeds, can trigger an allergic reaction in the body. In fact, pollen is one of the most common causes of allergies in the U.S.
The tiny particles are released from trees, weeds and grasses to fertilize parts of other plants. But as the pollen hitch rides on currents of air, sometimes they enter your nasal passage or throat, triggering a type of seasonal allergic reaction.
This type of allergy is known as hay fever or rose fever (depending on the season in which the symptoms occur).
Hay fever symptoms include sneezing, a runny nose, a scratchy throat, coughing, nasal congestion and itchy, watery eyes.
You can minimize the discomfort of hay or rose fever by staying indoors as much as possible on hot, windy days when pollen counts are high. Also, keep your doors and windows closed and use an air conditioner to lower indoor humidity and reduce the amount of airborne pollen that finds its way indoors.
2. Animal Dander
Many families around the world have pets. In the U.S. alone, the American Pet Products Association estimates that 65 percent of households have a pet.
Owning a pet has many benefits, but it can be a common allergy trigger for you or your family members.
The proteins present in a pet's dander (skin flakes), saliva and urine can cause an allergic reaction. It can also aggravate asthma symptoms in some people. Moreover, pet hair or fur can collect pollen, mold spores and other outdoor allergens, thus bringing those common triggers into your home.
Some symptoms of a pet dander allergy are sneezing, a runny nose, itchy or watery eyes, nasal congestion, an itchy nose, coughing, facial pressure and pain due to inflammation of the sinuses, difficulty breathing and chest tightness or pain.
For those with this allergy, it's important to take steps to reduce the amount of pet dander in the home. You can do this by regularly bathing your pet, vacuuming the floor and furniture, changing and washing your bedding, and keeping your pet off of furniture and out of your bedroom.
3. Mold
Mold is a class of fungus that grows in damp places. It can grow almost anywhere that is warm, damp and humid environments like basements or bathrooms as well as in grass or mulch.
This fungus reproduces via spores and these spores can be present in the air, too. When the spores make their way into your nasal cavity, they trigger an allergic reaction. Some symptoms of a mold allergy are sneezing, itching, a runny nose, eye irritation, a cough, congestion, post-nasal drip and asthma attack.
Those living in a house with poor ventilation and high humidity are more likely to have problems with mold. To help prevent the growth of mold:
- Ventilate damp areas to reduce the moisture level. For example, use an exhaust fan in the bathroom while showering.
- Regularly clean damp areas in the bathroom, kitchen and around the house to prevent mold spores from developing.
- Use a dehumidifier in areas that feel humid or smell musty. Always clean the dehumidifier's filters and coils regularly.
- Eliminate sources of excess moisture like leaky pipes or roof shingles.
- Keep drainage areas around your home clear.
- Get rid of moldy leaves or damp firewood in the yard.
4. House Dust Mites
House dust mites are microscopic organisms that live in house dust. They feed on the dead skin cells that people shed regularly. Dust mites can survive in all climates and at most altitudes.
According to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, about 20 million people in the U.S. are allergic to dust mites.
A dust mite allergy can cause a wide range of signs and symptoms, including a runny or itchy nose, post-nasal drip, itchy skin, congestion, sinus pressure, watery eyes, a scratchy throat, coughing, swollen eyes, trouble sleeping, chest pain or tightness, difficulty breathing and shortness of breath.
To prevent allergic reactions to dust mites:
- Use allergen-proof bed covers on the mattress, box spring and pillows to prevent the allergens from getting into the beds.
- Wash all your beddings (sheets, pillowcases, blankets and bed covers) in hot water at least once a week. Dry them in a hot dryer or in natural sunlight during the summer months.
- Keep your house as free as possible of items that collect dust, such as stuffed animals, curtains and carpets.
- Vacuum your home on a regular basis.
5. Cockroaches
The creepy and crawling cockroaches that many people cannot even bear the sight of are another common trigger of allergic reactions.
A kind of protein in their droppings, saliva and appendages is the troublesome allergen. If there are cockroaches in your home or workplace, you can inhale the protein.
Common symptoms of this type of allergy include coughing, nasal congestion, a skin rash, wheezing and an ear or sinus infection. Cockroaches can also trigger asthma attacks as well as coughing and wheezing in babies and small children.
These creepy insects are notoriously hardy and difficult to get rid of. However, you can prevent an infestation by:
- Not leaving human or pet food sitting out for them to feed on.
- Covering trashcans, washing your dishes and cleaning up food crumbs promptly.
- Sealing cracks in your walls and floors.
- Fixing or cleaning up sources of excess moisture.
- Reducing humidity in your home, as it promotes the growth of cockroaches and other pests.
- Using roach traps or gels to get rid of cockroaches.
6. Food
You suffer from a food allergy if your immune system reacts abnormally to something you eat or drink. According to the Food Allergy Research and Education organization, some 15 million Americans have food allergies.
When it comes to food allergies, there are some common foods that are known to be the main culprits. These include cow's milk, eggs, peanuts, fish, shellfish, tree nuts (such as cashews or walnuts), wheat and soy.
A food allergy can cause mild or severe symptoms. Mild symptoms may include sneezing, a stuffy or runny nose, watery eyes, swelling, a rash, stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. On the other hand, severe symptoms are difficulty breathing, wheezing, hives and dizziness.
To prevent allergic reactions, avoid problematic foods even in small amounts. Also, when purchasing food at a supermarket or ordering food in a restaurant, check the ingredients thoroughly.
7. Insect Stings
Being stung by a bee or wasp is very painful, but the problem becomes severe if you're allergic to the insect's venom. Insect-related allergic reactions typically involve yellow jackets, honeybees, paper wasps, hornets and fire ants.
Some symptoms of an insect sting allergy include extensive swelling and redness that may last a week or more, nausea, fatigue and a low-grade fever. In cases of a serious reaction, a person can have additional symptoms like difficulty breathing; hives or rashes; swelling of the face, throat or mouth; a rapid pulse; dizziness; or a sharp drop in blood pressure requiring urgent medical attention.
To prevent a reaction to an insect sting, take measures to avoid getting bitten or stung by the insects. You can also consult your doctor about allergy shots (immunotherapy).
8. Latex
Latex in gloves, condoms and certain medical devices can trigger an allergic reaction.
You suffer from a latex allergy if your immune system identifies latex as a harmful substance and releases certain antibodies to fight the allergen. You can suffer an allergic reaction simply by touching products containing latex, such as gloves, condoms and balloons.
Also, inhaling latex particles, especially from gloves, can cause a reaction.
Some symptoms of a latex allergy include itching, skin redness, hives or rashes, sneezing, a runny nose, watery eyes, a scratchy throat, difficulty breathing, wheezing and coughing. Symptoms may appear within minutes after exposure to latex-containing products.
Those who are allergic to latex should limit or avoid exposure to latex products. Also, the problem can be prevented during dental, medical or surgical procedures by informing your health care providers about your latex allergy before any test or treatment.
9. Fragrance
Fragrances in products like perfumes, scented candles, laundry detergent and cosmetics can trigger a reaction in some people.
Smells and fragrances in such products are usually synthetic chemicals that do not stimulate antibody production by the immune system. Hence, they are not allergens, but irritants that can cause allergy-like symptoms.
A reaction to a fragrance can cause a range of symptoms, such as sneezing, a runny nose, watery eyes, headaches, inability to concentrate, dizziness, breathing difficulties, wheezing, itchy skin, hives and other rashes. For most people, symptoms ease once the scent is out of range.
The best defense is to stay away from the sources of this problem. Know your possible triggers and avoid them. Whenever you need to test a new scent, be extra careful.
10. Medication
Some people may even develop an allergic reaction to a medication. This happens when your immune system, which fights infection and disease, reacts to the drug.
A reaction to a medication can cause mild to life-threatening symptoms, such as hives or rashes, itchy eyes, congestion and swelling in the mouth and throat.
Certain drugs tend to cause more allergic reactions than others. These drugs include antibiotics (penicillin), aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs like ibuprofen), anticonvulsants (lamotrigine) and chemotherapy drugs.
If you've had a reaction to a medication in the past, it's best to inform your doctor and avoid the drug altogether. However, if exposed, ask your doctor about treatment with antihistamines or steroids.

Agonic Brewing Co. is a microbrewery that will be located in Rice Lake, the heart of the Northwoods, Wisconsin
The brewery will be built around a taproom that will sell beer produced by Agonic Brewing Company via their multiple taps. Patrons of the Rice Lake based brewery will be able to purchase pints for consumption at the taproom in addition to growlers, crowlers, and kegs that allow them to take beer home.
We also want to be mindful of our impact on our local community, as well as our world. In addition to being supportive of local community events and organizations, Agonic Brewing will host events to bolster the local economy and community involvement.
Agonic Brewing will do as much as we can to reduce our impact on the environment. This will include the selection of ingredients, packaging, and the overall safe brewing process. As we grow, the importance of lessening our environmental impact will become greater.
Our Approach:
Beer will be made true
to style and to the spirit of brewing in the US.
We will be offering beer true to style in order to educate the people of northwest Wisconsin what beer can truly be. There are over 60 styles of beer and most people have only experienced one. We want to change that.
For those who are familiar with craft beer, we will be offering beer that has been brewed true to the spirit of brewing. We can infuse ingredients that are normally not found in brewing and use them in a way that will create pleasant and sometimes surprising combinations.
Sourcing local ingredients will also allow us to create beers that could only be created because of our location. Not only will it allow us to create unique beers, but we can also grow our local economy.
At Agonic Brewing Co we are committed to always having a diverse lineup of beer on tap at all times. We are currently developing our recipes to do just that. Once we are open we will take the public opinion seriously into what our line up in the taproom should be offering.

If you have kids in school these days, you are probably stressing over the state of public education. The truth is, violence and bullying are on the rise in schools. And, parents are wondering if paying the hefty private school price is worth it. Therefore, we would like to offer you 5 reasons to achieve the private school dream.
Younger children will benefit from attending private primary school in Perth. At All Saints College the wellbeing, welfare, and safety of your children are the highest priority. Their staff and all who volunteer on site, are expected to uphold this level of excellence. But, even with these great assets you are probably looking for more reasons to consider the move from public to private.
Private Schools Can be a Dream Come True
For many people, private schools can be a dream come true. They have watched their children flounder in excessively large classrooms lacking the ability to receive the one on one attention they desperately need. Or, they have endured core teaching that is opposed to their personal belief systems. For these reasons, and the five that follow, private schools are an excellent option:
- Assessment Issues– Thanks to the move towards common core, most public schools have become little more than testing facilities. Students are constantly assessed and those that don't make the grade are segregated into remedial courses where class size caps are not in place. This leaves teachers at a disadvantage even when they really want to make a difference in a student's life. Learn more.
- Low Expectations– Public schools don't offer the high expectations that many parents hold for their children. Private schools can expand your child's world. They offer them the opportunity to explore, innovate, and think creatively. This is due, in part, to the smaller classroom sizes.
- Staff Morale– Chances are, the teachers at your public schools are less enthusiastic than they need to be. Teachers don't go into education thinking about the fact that they will be in overcrowded schools where kids would rather play on their phones than learn.
- Individualized Instruction– When teachers are allowed to focus on the needs of individual students because their class sizes are manageable your child gets the attention he/she needs. Students who feel that their needs are important are more invested in their own education. This makes the learning experience far more enjoyable for all involved. Get more information about this here.
- Class Sizes– Due to the recent cutbacks in public education, the classroom size cap has been lifted. Teachers are expected to teach 38 kids in classrooms designed for 25. There aren't enough chairs or desks to go around and often times the air conditioning doesn't work. Subjecting students to all these negatives can be a huge hindrance to the learning process.
Private school education can be a parental dream come true. Of course, the problem about cost always makes people less enthusiastic about truly working toward that dream. However, many private schools provide scholarship money and even a sliding scale for those with financial need. This makes the fiscal burden considerably less problematic.
If you think that private school might be the best option for your child, it is a good idea to read this article. Good luck with your private school dreams! May they all come true.

Leslie Wingo, Mike Aviles, Shawn Cirkiel.
Who inspired you?
Coach Harry Miesel taught me the value of hard work. I was an average swimmer on an elite team. Coach Meisel taught me the value of methodical, hard work that results in incremental change. I'm a vision, strategy thinker and Coach Meisel taught me that the world is changed by clocking and tackling every single day with high standards.
What is your favorite Austin business?
I have so many. I love that Austin is made up of disruptors. Even our big, major employers were visionary disruptors - Dell, Whole Foods, HomeAway, Kendra Scott. If established players think it's too risky, too big, doesn't make sense, that's where Austin thrives. What starts here changes the world.
Why Junior Achievement?
Values and Market Opportunity. JA's values are my values: entrepreneurial, egalitarian. JA is an underutilized asset in Central Texas proven effective in addressing our regions most critical issues. The economy inequality in Austin doesn't reflect our values as a city. We are rapidly becoming a city of have and have nots. Low income students don't have the same opportunities my children do - I don't want to live in a place where the lottery of your birth determines your future.

Of the 60 people who had developed severe infection in the retina after being operated upon at the medical camp, 52 have so far lost their vision permanently in the eye that was treated, he told IANS.
The remainder eight patients might get their eyesight back, Pandit said.
A total of 86 people underwent cataract surgery at the medical camp in Badwani, organised by the state government from November 16 to 24. Of the patients, 60 developed infection.
The public outcry following the botched up surgeries led to the state government suspending Dr.R.S. Palod, under whose guidance the camp was organised, assistant Pradeep Chouksey and staff nurses Leela Verma, Maya Chouhan, Vinita Chouksey and Shabana Mansuri.
The state government also decided to conduct an infection-audit of operation theaters of all district hospitals and announced free treatment, Rs.2 lakh compensation and Rs.5,000 per month pension for each patient who has suffered the consequences of botched up surgery.

Quirky Yet Romantic Lodging Options
Most working stiffs receive only one or two weeks of vacation each year. Understandably, that time is almost sacred, and people want to spend these rare occasions in the most enjoyable ways as possible. Depending on personal preference and priorities, people may choose to spend their vacations on road trips, in a villa in Galicia, or relaxing at home without the stresses of work or travel. For some vacationers, they crave excitement and adventure that can only be achieved through foreign travel. If foreign vacation adventures are what you seek, there are more options available than ever, especially when it comes to lodging.
For vacationers with a taste for classic literature, they may have visions of sipping from a wineskin among exotic villas in spain, villas in France, or a villa in Galicia. While this may satisfy the Hemingways among us, there are other lodging options that will never fail to stir that spirit of literary adventure. If you are looking for something a bit different from a villa in Galicia, there are many quirky places to stay. And just because these options are more unusual than a villa in Galicia, it does not mean that one sacrifices their romantic visions. For example, glamping is a fine option for people who want to enjoy the outdoor perks of camping, but do not want to give up the comforts of more traditional accommodations. Other unusual lodging options include a holiday in a tipi, a holiday in a yurt, and treehouse holidays. Whatever international travelers are looking for, there are more lodging options available than they can possibly imagine. Continue.

Barbara Payne, the editor of FoodandDrinkChicago.com takes on an adventure of cooking fresh live Maine lobsters and mussels for the first time!
Lobster by Fabio delivers seafood. We were happy to be invited recently to review a sample of their wares. The large box – overnight from Maine – arrived on the morning of the day we'd agreed on for delivery. Nice that we didn't have to wait all day for it.
What we were not prepared for, however, was the fact that their product is alive when it comes to the door. Even though we've tried lots of challenging dishes over the years, the truth is, we'd never cooked live mussels or – gulp – live lobsters. Today's the day, guys.

Learning a new language:
1. Enhances our brain power – and this is not a myth, I felt it on my own and many of my students are saying the same thing. Our brain is a muscle while we learn we train it and obviously we become smarter.
2. Increases our Memory – another wonderful side effect, learning a new language is ameliorating our memory. I am still making notes about the things I need to do or what I need to buy or meetings I have but I observed I do not need them anymore, I simply remember everything without an extra effort.
3. Develops our decision-making ability – I must confess I was very bad at this, I spent hours or even days thinking about whether I should do or not certain things. I feel a huge improvement in this area and I'm not stopping here.
4. Develops our multi-task working ability – I love this one, this is a must skill in our days, so many things to do all the time and so little time for it. While we learn a new language our brain is developing its ability to organise and schematize and later applies this skill in all spheres of our life. And it truly works.
5. Grow our self-confidence – I think this is a logical effect, our confidence is growing while we learn new things and we accumulate so many things while we learn a new language.
6. Expands our career potential – I never thought about it from this perspective before I start learning Italian but now I have a huge advantage while teaching Italians. I think this is applicable in any field, speaking a new language could help you in making connections, meeting new people, moving in another country etc.
7. Develops our communication skill – to learn a language presumes a lot of communication and practice always makes it better.
8. Enlarge us as life perspectives – I felt it right away, exchanging ideas all the time with people that were grown in another way helped me to see the whole world from a totally new perspective and this helped me to grow as well.
9. Changes our mindset – I must say that Italians are very positive, they always are smiling and they are making jokes and even the language has a certain musicality, all this, on the whole, made me more positive and of course, I smile more 🙂
10. Opens the door to a whole new culture – Seeing the language as a key is one of the best comparisons ever, with this key now I am able to read foreign authors or travel without a guide, learn from locals in a lost village how to cook authentic pizzafood from different places, the possibilities are enormous, probably I even don't realise at this moment how this will truly change my life in the future but it is certain, I opened the door to a new culture which enriched me and continues doing so.
I am not at the end of my way but I must say that I enjoy so much the route that I even forget about the final goal. Learning a new language is also fun, a reason that was not on my initial list, it is something I discovered in time and it values even more than the rest.
What about you, could you think of a reason that is not listed here? Then please share it with everybody in a comment on this page and help others in their learning trip.
Thank you! (Victoria Dubasaru)😘😉

If you think you can't glow without a highlighter or a little sweat, think again. The natural oils your skin produces and a naturally derived skin care routine will make your skin radiate. Not only does the new Nutri-Define range from Jurlique help create that glow, it tackles ageing head on…and wins! How? Read the review below and see how everything Jurlique does is Inspired by nature.
I wanted to write this review about the Nutri-Define Eye Contour Balm because it is finally the eye cream I have been looking for. I should have known it would come from here, I love the Jurlique range.
How The Nutri-Define Eye Contour Balm Caught My Eye
A makeup artist recently told me 'even a great concealer gets stuck between the sheets' – those sheets were the wrinkles around my eyes! He was serious, no concealer was hiding my fine lines. He explained that I 'needed a really good eye cream' to tackle the wrinkles under my eyes. Don't you love how honest some people are? Of course, I immediately began searching for an eye cream. I tried out ones he recommended and several others. I've tested so many my eyes have become overly sensitive. Nothing was working (even luxury French brands like Payot, Clinique and cosmeceuticals like Medik8) eyes either got irritated or I never saw real results on my sensitive skin – that was before I tried Jurlique's new Nutri-Define Eye Contour Balm.
Why I Love Jurlique
I knew it was good because I love the Australian company and what it's about. Have you heard about them or why I love their products so much? They Biodynamically grow herbs in the Adelaide hills overseen by the founder Dr Jürgen Klein who is a biochemist, and his wife Ulrike, a botanist. Ulrike explains that "beauty comes from within, feeling good about yourself, confident"(Jurlique.com.au/the-jurlique-story) – their aim is to reconnect ourselves by connecting us back to nature. The brand story is so cute, the company's name is a combination of both their first names – Jürgen and Ulrike – it just makes me melt. I begged Jurlique to join their affiliate program and was sent the Nutri-define Eye Contour Balm to test out. I can honestly say, from all the eye creams I've tried, this is the one I use every day.
Ingredients Derived From Nature
From using the product every day, I am a fan of Jurlique for two main reasons. The naturally derived ingredients and that it's Australian made. The Nutri-Define Eye Contour Balm makes for a lovely lightweight yet creamy formula. Enough to sink into the skin and erase fine lines without feeling greasy, heavy (especially under makeup) or irritable. I love the small applicator built with high-grade stainless steel to create a cooling effect. The steel adds a firmness to help stimulate the eye area which helps product absorb. It also and allows the application to be super smooth and hygienic.
Back to the ingredients. The unique oils like squalene, meadowfoam and jojoba improve hydration and erase those ageing signs. They add to the patent-pending Biosome5 technology which is cutting-edge in natural anti-ageing skincare. Using five key ingredients, it targets signs of ageing from wrinkles to sagging skin, and uneven skin tone.
Horseradish and Rosemary Extract offer powerful antioxidant properties to reduce sagging skin. Mulberry Root is rich in anti-oxidants and natural phenols that are known to brighten skin. Peppermint Leaf Extract revitalises dull skin and improves skin texture.
My favourite ingredient is the Glycogen. It makes the mixture literally glow because it's derived from pearlescent sea shells, and sea minerals help reinforce the skin's natural defences.
The Nutri-Define Eye Contour Balm Actually Works
The final reason for loving this eye balm is the results. Yes, I had also recently had fillers under my eyes but this actually made the issue stand out to me more. Dermal fillers covered my bags nicely, but there was nothing to combat the little lines right around my eyes! Results spoke for themselves, there was no chemical feel or smell, it was beautifully absorbent, lightweight and reduced the fine lines around my eyes. Need I say more?
Happy days. x
