Nobody wants to suffer from an injury while playing a sport or exercising. Even though many injuries are unavoidable and unintentional, there are some precautions you can take to help avoid potential injuries.
Stretching allows our muscles to be flexible and sustain a range of motion. This range of motion decreases the risk of joint pain, strains, or muscle damage when participating in physical activity.
Hot and Cold Therapy
While playing a sport or exercising, you may suffer from strains, sprains, and pulled muscles that result in swelling and inflammation. Use ice immediately to take down swelling and to numb the pain. After using cold therapy, heat therapy can be used for lingering pain and soreness. It's important to note when using heat therapy, you may apply directly it to the skin, taking caution not to burn yourself with temperatures that are too intense. If your skin begins to redden noticeably, remove the heat to give it a rest. Unlike heat, do not apply ice directly to the skin. This may result in damage to the skin and nerves.
If you are not feeling well, or are suffering from soreness, don't over- do it. Take the adequate amount of rest you need until you are feeling better. Over doing it will do nothing but make the situation worse, and potentially cause a more severe injury.
It's important to remember to hydrate before and after physical activity. Whether it's hot or cold outside, dehydration can still occur. It's also important to drink not only when thirsty and to replace the fluids you lost after working out.
How HRUC Can Help
If you suffer from an injury while playing a sport or exercising, or become dehydrated, keep HRUC in mind. HRUC provides medical treatment for general health illnesses such as dehydration, along with treatment for minor fractures, sprains, and acute injuries. HRUC also offers direct access to orthopaedic experts from HROSM. Hours are extended beyond traditional business hours from 8am-7pm Monday –Fridays, and on Saturdays from 10am-4pm. No appointments are necessary, and walk- ins are always welcome!

Successful companies and organizations depend on advertising and public relations personnel to present their products and services professionally. PCC's advertising/public relations program trains students to do so by combining studies in advertising, business, communication, and design.
Through the program's solid sequence of studies, advertising/public relations students prepare to write, design, and communicate effectively. In public relations, marketing, and advertising courses, students gain a biblical perspective on the components of advertising and public relations: advocacy and persuasion, employee and media relations, consumer and community relations, and crisis management.
Writing and communication classes allow students to put these philosophies into practice for print, radio, television, and Internet venues. For hands-on experience in advertising and public relations, students plan, promote, and oversee the annual Turkey Bowl collegian soccer championship, which draws over 6,000 spectators.
A built-in graphic design minor helps students learn effective advertising principles using industry-standard design software and computers. Students create advertising campaigns, design promotional publications and websites, and collaborate with local businesses to advertise in College publications.
This thorough, balanced program equips students with a comprehensive set of skills valued by prospective employers.
Students enrolled in 300- or 400-level art courses are required to own a personal laptop for use in class. An Adobe Creative Cloud subscription is also required. Laptop specifications must meet minimum Adobe Creative Cloud system requirements.
I chose to major in Advertising/Public Relations at PCC, and graphic design is automatically built in as a minor. I am thankful that PCC trained me to do both professions well. PCC prepared me by training me to be detailed in my work. The advertising/design faculty always held such a high standard in classes.

A farmer holds a Greek flag in front of parliament during a protest against the government's tax and social security reforms on February 14, 2017 in Athens, Greece.
Greece's parliament on Thursday passed a fast-track reform package to unlock bailout funds and wrap up a fourth and final review of its loan programme as it seeks more debt relief from its official creditors next week.
Greece is due to exit its latest bailout programme in August and will then have to rely on financial markets to cover its borrowing needs.
The country has a debt-to-GDP ratio of 179.8 percent, the highest in the 19-nation euro zone.
Athens is keen to pass the final review of the country's compliance with reforms prescribed in its bailout before a euro zone finance ministers meeting on June 21.
A green light on the review would release about 12 billion euros ($13.97 billion) of new loans from Greece's latest 86 billion euro bailout, its third since 2010.
The final payment from the bailout funds would add to a cash buffer the Greek government is creating and could serve as a fall-back option for refinancing needs.
Lawmakers passed the reform package 154-to-144 in the 300-seat parliament. It was endorsed by lawmakers of the leftist-led alliance while all other opposition parties voted it down.
"This government smothered Greeks with taxes. It crushed growth and pushed the middle-class to poverty," said conservative opposition leader Kyriakos Mitsotakis during a heated debate on the reforms bill.
"You created a large mass of desperate people who are drowning in debt and have no hope for the future," he said.

American Water Works Co. announced in a release Wednesday that it would sell its New York operation to Liberty Utilities for $608 million cash. The deal follows years-long criticism from Nassau County ratepayers, lawmakers and watchdog groups that have questioned the private company's rate structure, water service and infrastructure management.
At Carefree Racquet Club, tennis is an international affair. Six of the top players who practice at the Merrick club recently captured a national title at the 2019 U.S. Tennis Association League National Championships, and only two are native to the Island. The others are from England, Venezuela, Ukraine and France.
Before Mark Nuccio, of Bellmore, became the treasurer of the Walt Whitman Birthplace Association, he exhibited his artwork there in 1982. The paintings, he explained, evoked Long Island's bird life, the heritage of its indigenous people and Whitman himself.
For every Thanksgiving for as long as she can remember, Hailey Arnell, 11, of North Bellmore, has watched the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade at home in her pajamas with her younger sister, Nikki. But this year, that tradition will be broken. Instead of watching the parade on TV, Hailey will be a part of the action.
The food industry on Long Island can be repetitious, often inundated with restaurants serving similar menus. Tejan Arora, a law school graduate from East Meadow, wanted to diversify the area's food offerings. Enter Street to Table, a new restaurant on Merrick Road in Merrick that turns street eats into crowd-pleasing favorites.
With clean-up tools in hand, Merrick's youth gathered at Cammanns Pond Park on Nov. 10 for the South Merrick Community Civic Association's Youth Club's first group outing. More than 20 children participated by raking leaves and planting fresh, winter-friendly greens.
It was supposed to be a simple troop and supply transport. Jim Carlina, a young military soldier at the time, was in a helicopter hauling several tons of water to a landing zone in war-torn Vietnam. The mission went awry when engine fires caused a crash landing. Carlina would never forget the dizzying, life-changing experiences that followed.
In this era of online shopping, it has never been easier to get exactly what you're looking for, quickly and relatively cheaply.
Hunger is found everywhere, even here on Long Island. The U.S. Department of Agriculture defines food insecurity for households as those that are "uncertain of having, or unable to acquire enough food to meet the needs of all their members."

Have you ever heard the words "tasseography" or "tassology"? In plain English, it's the practice of reading the patterns of tea leaves, coffee grounds or wine sediments to tell the future. I have concluded that these substances are just as reliable as all the political polls . . .

Spring time means brunch time! But let's be honest, wouldn't you brave the cold winter weather for a nice cosy brunch anyway? That's exactly what my sister and I did to try out the super easy to find Cuckoo Callay right next to Newtown station for a sisterly date.
We were welcomed warmly inside despite the rainy dreary weather outside by Ella, who brightly said it's still better than having it rain all day like it does back in England! The interior deco is incredibly kooky and I was incredibly intrigued by this clock so we just had to sit right underneath it. The place is decked out with mirrors to make the space seem a lot more spacious. An ingenious idea really.
|Skim mocha, $4.00
|Salted caramel thickshake, $7.00
|The brunch spread
|#Hashtag browns, $17.00
|Pulled duck, $22.00
|That's the way the cookie crumbles, $11.00
Sometimes I do wish I wasn't quite as small and had more stomach space because both my sister and I were rolling out the door, filled to the brim with delicious food. Cuckoo Callay is definitely a welcome addition to the Newtown cafe scene. Despite the fact that Newtown is filled with coffee fiends, there seems to be a lack of fantastic cafes - not like the Surry Hills region! But Cuckoo Callay has definitely made it's mark. I know I'll definitely be making stops by for some coffee!
Crystal Noir and friend dined as guests thanks to Ibriham and Ella, owners of Cuckoo Callay. Opinions however, are entirely her own.

Friday, June 23, 2017 is Take Your Dog to Work Day. For some animal lovers, it is the one day of the year they are permitted to bring their dogs into the workplace. It is a daily ritual for a growing number of Americans.
Eight percent of all U.S. pet owners are allowed to bring their pet to work according to a survey by the American Pet Products Association (APPA). The number of companies allowing pets in the workplace is on the rise. Researchers found support among the American workforce for pets on the job:
55 million Americans believe having pets in the workplace leads to a more creative environment
50 million believe having pets in workplace helps co-workers get along better
38 million believe having pets in workplace creates a more productive work environment
37 million believe having pets in workplace helps improve relationships between managers and staff
Are you planning on taking your dog to work for the first time? Make sure your office environment is safe. Remove poisonous plants and pesticides, hide electrical cords and wires and secure toxic items such as permanent markers. Any office items in question should be placed out of reach.
Make sure your dog is fit for work. Even dogs don't get a second chance to make a first impression. Be sure your dog's shots are current. Make plans to have your dog bathed and groomed before accompanying you to work. Be mindful of your dog's "work readiness." You know your dog's demeanor, so if he is aggressive or overly shy, it's best to leave him at home. Consider how your dog has behaved in the past around strangers before making the decision to bring him. If your dog has shown fear, irritability or aggression, or if your dog has never met strangers, the workplace is not the best place for him.
Have a doggie bag. Include food, treats, bowls, toys, leash, paper towels, clean-up bags and pet-safe disinfectant. If you are routinely in and out of your work space, consider bringing a baby gate for your doorway or a portable kennel for your dog's comfort and your peace of mind.
Plan your pet's feeding times carefully. During an important sales call is probably not the best time for a bathroom break. Plan your dog's feeding time around your work schedule and be sure to choose an appropriate area for your dog to relieve himself afterward.
Avoid forcing co-workers to interact with your dog. Dog lovers will make themselves known. Sally from accounting and Joe in human resources may not want to play fetch or offer belly rubs, so be mindful of fellow employees' time and space. To avoid pet accidents, monitor the amount of treats your pet is being given from your co-workers. Remember that chocolate, candy and other people food should not be shared with dogs and that not all non-dog owners will be aware that these items can be very toxic to your pooch.
Have an exit strategy. Although most dogs enjoy being with owners at work, your pet may not. Should your dog become overly boisterous, agitated or withdrawn, consider taking him home or plan in advance for your professional pet sitter to offer a midday check-in visit. Never, under any circumstance, leave your pet alone in a vehicle while you work!

Tax Time.. Woohoo
I'm asking - here in AZ you have to qualify for a medical marijuana card.
In the state of Washington - marijuana stores are on every corner - take your I.D. and purchase as if your at any other convenience store.
Medical costs are a deductible so I'm asking is or should medical marijuana be a deductible?
What do you say?

Have you been hit by the Universe's baseball bat when you won't take care of something in your life?
It doesn't have to be that way. You can choose to get the nudges before they become cracks to your head. Much easier (and less painful!) that way, yes?
In today's podcast, I talk more about this and share an experience in my own life where I didn't pay attention soon enough and got "the bat".

Is your own blind side getting in the way? Perhaps I can help you find some clarity.

Podcast Transcript
from Practically Intuitive Podcasts
Hi everyone and welcome to the Practically Intuitive podcast – I'm Lisa from Practically Intuitive, and this is my weekly platform to discuss lots of things related to using your intuition in all facets of your life.
So, yeah. Am I gonna have to slug you in the head with a baseball bat? That would hurt, don't you think?
(I hear you all saying "Lisa, what are you blathering about??")
I am talking about learning the lessons that come to you throughout your life. Some big ones, lots of small ones, some you didn't plan, lots you did. All lessons.
And the Universe has many ways of respecting our free will to accept those lessons (or not, as the case may be). It offers a nudge, a reminder, clues and a whole bunch of other little ways for us to see the issue at hand. Most times, these are pretty gentle.
What if, though, you don't see what's going on? What if you see but don't act? What then? well, that's when the Universe's baseball bat comes out. A metaphorical one, of course, but it can hurt just the same.
Wouldn't you rather get your lessons as nudges rather than a bat to the back of the head? I know I would and while I like to think I'm pretty conscious about things, I, too have my blind side. I've been hit with the bat a couple times in my life and one of those times is going on right now. It's regarding a situation at my day job that I've known was brewing but for some reason, I thought I could handle it all. Sure, I can do two jobs, right?
Yeah, no, not so much. The baseball bat to the head was a couple weeks of drama and tension and unhappiness until I finally accepted the reality of the situation. Looking back, I see the nudges I was given, I see the excuses I made and I now see how I have gotten to the point where quitting that job is a very real option if I want to keep my mind/body/spirit intact.
One of the most important ways you can make your life a lot easier is to watch for the nudges, watch for the clues about these lessons. Then, DO SOMETHING based on that knowledge. Ignoring it because you don't want to see it or deal with it puts you on the road to "Bat to the head" avenue.
Using my own situation, let me show you some places where I could have acted but chose not to thus setting me up for the bat:
Part of my persona at work was "the one who could help or fix everything for you" and while I liked being that person most of the time, I was unable to separate out what I could reasonably do with what was too much for me to take on.
Now, having realized that, I could have spoken up to my boss and said "I can do this and this but not that," and let someone else step up. That would have been a good way to avoid the bat to the head.
Instead, I chose to get all martyr-like about it and just take on the work of two people while seething inside. Hoping that someone would see what was going on and magically take it out of my hands, I struggled through day after day.
Not quite bat time but clearly me not paying attention – it was staying in my comfort zone (by being the martyr – and thanks mom for all the training in that skill!) by being the one who can do it all.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, it suddenly dawns on me that I come home every night with a head on overload. Mostly, I sit and stare at a wall or surf the net randomly. I've lost my creativity, my joy for doing this intuitive work and my zest for life.
That's okay, I think. Things will get better – someone will realize what's going on and help me, right?
Another week goes by, the co-worker who wasn't doing well is moved to another office. All his work, his full-time work, gets dumped on me now along with my other full-time duties. I go into the bathroom at work and cry.
Surely someone will realize this and come save me, won't they?
End of the week – still staring at the wall, still not finding my joy and realizing I'm in deeper than I had ever, ever planned to be. Life as I know it sucks hard.
CRACK! That was the sound of the bat. I realized I had let myself get into this mess all along. No one was coming to save me. No one. I am the only one who can save myself.
This realization caused a wee breakdown but out of that came some big clarity. I have to lay down some boundaries now – such as handling one job or the other but not both – if I am ever to have my soul back. Doing this work with practically intuitive feeds my soul and if I'm not doing that work, then I've lost my biggest source of joy. The prospect of losing that and all the work I've put into it because I won't speak up really hit me hard.
And it moved me into action. I've asked the Universe to show me all possible options for my next move whether that's looking for a new job, speaking up at the old one and saying what I can and cannot do, even if it feels like letting everyone down, or some other thing yet to be determined.
It took me facing the loss of all I love and have worked for to prod me out of my "I can do everything " box and I'm glad. I wish I had caught it sooner and made my voice heard at work but that's okay. I got it just in time.
What is going on in your own life that you are tolerating? Will it take a bat to your head to get you to change direction? Or is there some smaller nudge that might do the same thing?
The lessons are the same whether you are getting a gentle nudge or a thwack of the bat. Really. So get it while it's still gentle, okay?
Thanks for listening – this is Lisa from Practically Intuitive. Have a lovely week! Bye for now.
Is your own blind side getting in the way? Perhaps I can help you find some clarity. You can schedule an Intuitive Reading with me and get some insight from your Spirit Guides and me.

This classic 2-ply laceweight yarn was developed with Shetland Museum and Archives as part of the Shetland Fine Lace Project. The yarn is worsted spun by Jamieson & Smith from the natural, undyed colours of pure bred Shetland Sheep to replicate the handspun yarns used in the finest Shetland lace items of the 1800s, such as Queen Victoria's stockings and items displayed at world exhibitions. The yarn has a distinct 'Shetland Halo' while knitting, which calms to a floating fairy-like haze after washing and finishing.
Suggested gauge is 30 sts by 35 rows to 4" on US 4 needles.
Hand wash cool, lay flat to dry.

A couple of weeks ago I was very fortunate to be given a personal guided tour of a library in Nottingham that is doing very well for funds and for its number of users. I visited the Bromley House Library right in the centre of Nottingham and only a few doors away from the Central Library on Angel Row. Bromley House is a subscription library – not many of those left nowadays, but this one (the only one I've ever visited) is a gem. Angel Row, Nottingham is a busy street, but once inside there was a welcoming atmosphere and a sense of calm and tranquility in the middle of a bustling city.
As my guide was in the middle of helping a reader at the time I was asked to wait in a smallish quiet room where I could help myself to coffee and sit in a comfortable armchair. I felt that, if I were to join this august library (for which there is a £90 annual subscription – or £45 if you live more than 50 miles away), it would be the nearest I would ever get to joining a gentleman's club, except that ladies are also admitted. I noticed that there was a long run of Punch magazine in bound volumes, including the first volume, on the open shelves. They don't have any shelving (or 'stacks' as we librarians like to call them) that is not accessible to the members, although there are certain rare and/or valuable books which are kept in lockable cabinets.
My tour started in the central room of the library, which has a spiral staircase and gallery both dating from the 19th century. Geraldine Grey, Assistant Librarian and Reader Services Manager, explained that the books are catalogued using a unique system which makes use of fairly broad categories and that new books were simply added on to the end of the sequence, according to broad subject – which must make searching for requested items interesting! With the exception of the Natural Sciences, there is very little on science in general or computer science and some categories of fiction (eg Sci-Fi) are not bought. However, much general fiction is bought and about 50% of the titles bought in any one year are as a result of recommendations from readers.
The stock totals around 40,000 books. The number of members is now around 1,300, a rise of about 500 since 2007, much of this possibly due to the decline in facilities at public libraries. Readers come from both near and far. There are a lot who live or work in Nottingham, but there are even a few readers living on the south coast and one or two who live abroad. Needless to say the librarians try to tailor their services to the requirements and circumstances of the readers. There are no automatic or computerised issuing systems: in fact the loans are recorded in ledgers. The only thing that is now computerised is the catalogue. Members can look up the books they need online and email their requests to the library. Geraldine told me that personal customer service was extremely important – something that the public libraries have been forced to give up to a large extent due to the cuts and computerisation.
It would be lovely to join the Bromley House Library, but ,living some distance from Nottingham as I do, I think I would not have the time to make the most of my membership.
In the April 16th, 2014 issue of the Chad, there's more about the Bromley House Library. You can also go to http://www.bromleyhouse.org.

On The Reading of Books
We are coming to the end of another pleasurable Christmas weekend at my in-laws. The day did not go as planned, it was to be a finally day of writing. However, nature intervened, we got maybe five inches of snow in a couple of hours and the power went out. So instead we took the kids out to my sister-in-law's boyfriend's place out in Albany, enjoying hayrides, snowball fights, a roaring bonfire, and hot cocoa. It was a worthy exchange. We can always write, we cannot always do these things.
Melancholy accompanies the final evening before a departure. Though the power is back, the lights are on, we are in our pajamas next to a warm fire and a sleeping hound, ready to read until we choose to retire. There is the inevitable sadness that comes with returning to life as usual. New Year's Eve is ahead of us, but still. Christmas is only now coming to an end.
I am currently enjoying the first volume of Simon Callow's biography of Orson Welles: The Road to Xanadu. Reading has been very difficult for me this year, as I have begun and then discarded several volumes, which I may or may not return to. Some I surely shall, others leave me doubtful.
Susan Orleans' Rin Tin Tin was a welcome gift last Christmas, which I began at that time with great interest. However, the outreach tour got in the way and it was shelved some one hundred pages in. I see it every day, it is waiting for me. Stay, old boy. I will be right back.
Trying to find something to inspire me in preparation of The Times (or as an excuse to see the movie when it is released) I tried for perhaps the fourth time to read Kerouac's On the Road. After twenty pages I decided once again that Capote was right. And you can look that up.
Finally, I waited until after the election to read Under The Banner of Heaven. I have very much enjoyed other works by Jon Krakauer, but worked mightily not to let Mitt Romney's religion affect my opposition to him as a candidate. I have found Mormonism to be no more nor less ridiculous than any other religion that exists on earth, but concentrating on the history of the most repellent people who practice it is as unfair as concentrating on those most repellent Catholics, Muslims or Jews. However, I was interested and began in interest, until the events of Newtown, CT made my taste for stories of paranoid, murderous Americans vanish, for the duration.
And so we return to biography, in particular one which was loaned to me by my father maybe a decade ago. Just as well, I had his copy of The Last Place On Earth for almost as long but finally read and thoroughly enjoyed that.

This article is brought to you by Clarkson Potter. Head here to learn more about the new cookbook Joy the Baker Over Easy by Joy Wilson.
Where's that one spot in your home where you like to linger during slow mornings, either in solitude or with a few friends on the weekend? Maybe it's those chairs in that sun-drenched corner, the butcher-block kitchen counter, or just settled in at your dining table.
For me, it's outside, and there are actually two nooks: Under a pergola with an overgrown wisteria vine (I'm waiting patiently for you to bloom, wisteria!) and next to a makeshift fire pit in big Adirondack chairs. Coffee and eggs are necessary when it's just me, but I like to have something more substantial, plus boozy drinks, when there are other humans present before noon.
Long, lazy mornings (like the one I'm conjuring in my head now), and what to eat and drink during them, is the subject of writer and baker Joy Wilson's new cookbook Joy the Baker Over Easy. And it, as if after my heart out of the gates, kicks off with a whole chapter dedicated to cocktails. Tucked in among the micheladas, sangrias, and mimosas is a drink with Spanish origins, the Kalimotxo. Made by mixing red table wine with cola, the Kalimotxo hails from Spain's Basque region and, as Joy notes, should have a place at your next extended brunch session:
A Kalimotxo (pronounced cal-ee-MO-cho) elicits one of two reactions: a raised eyebrow in suspicion at both the pronunciation and ingredient list, or a knowing nod of the head in remembrance of post-college backpacking trips through Spain. One part red wine. One part cane-sugar cola. A lot of crushed ice. A good squeeze of lime. Opt for a cheap red wine, like a Spanish Rioja or Italian table wine from Trader Joe's. Set your suspicions aside for this delicious afternoon brunch accompaniment.
And, while it may not be traditional, I like to think you can make the Kalimotxo your own by tweaking here and there.
Add herbs like basil (for lime) and rosemary or thyme (if you are using more lemons) as a garnish.
Muddle the spent limes, or fresh lemon rounds, in the bottom of your glasses before topping them off with the drink for extra citrus.
Slip in a little something extra, like a shot of amaro or vermouth.
Scale up and serve in a punch bowl for bigger crowds, and float lots of citrus rounds on top.
Experiment with flavored colas to mimic or balance the flavors of your favorite table wine.

Currently, we live in a time when it is important for all of us to make changes that may be difficult. "Green living" is a brand new buzz word that is rapidly becoming familiar to more and more individuals. It is about applying earth-friendly methods to clean up the environment. There are various types of folks who are anxious about what is taking place in the world's environment. Some people are really radical extremists, some are religious, and many others are merely concerned members of society. There are individuals who recycle just so they can make extra income. It looks like it may be time for men and women to begin respecting the environment.
What our parents teach us when we are kids is often ingrained into our core belief system. Can you see how awesome it would be to have unpolluted air in our world? Do you worry incessantly that our water is deadly? It is time to have a food supply that is not treated with chemicals, and perhaps people would become healthy once again. We have to learn to trust green medicine although it is new to us. People are beginning to see how much better alternative natural health treatments are than prescription drugs.
Developing new technologies could make it less complicated to live green. Ever since the industrial revolution, our planet has been exhausting energy sources. Researchers have been trying to find new energy sources for a long time. There's an urgent need to develop new ways to produce energy while continuing to preserve the resources available to us. A number of these possible energy sources are solar energyand tidal energy. In addition to being earth-friendly, these alternative sources of energy are constantly renewing. Making use of solar power for your electric needs is a crucial component of green living.
With the technology that converts energy from the sun into a way to power an automobile, our lives are changing. Solar power is a fantastic way to filling up the car with petrol. We send our kids to school so that they will learn, so it makes perfect sense that they should learn to be concerned about the environment. Teaching them to lead a healthy lifestyle would also be a good idea. The amount of resources we squander on our planet is simply staggering. Continuing to needlessly consume resources has caused many of them to become scarce. Our water supply is steadily going down so it has become imperative that we conserve as much of it as possible. A large amount of electric power is constantly wasted. Just consider how often we leave the light switched on when it's not necessary. If everyone preferred to use energy-saving lightbulbs and switched off unnecessary lights, how much electricity could we save?
A greener lifestyle is now the duty of each person. As the earth continues to run out of its resources, we can no longer let other people assume responsibility. Take one step now by switching off the light whenever you leave the room.

"Mimic and Revenge" is the theme that runs through this very first episode and interview with Daryl Palumbo. This was done in late 2016 with George Reynolds in a quiet living room in Selden, NY. Daryl talks about his inspirations, band dynamics w Justin Beck, favorite front-men, musical approaches and all while trying to balance the inevitable birth of a new baby and a new record. (Being that the interview is a little older, the baby has since been birthed…but we are still waiting on that new record Daryl..)

Sleepwalking Kid Held in Custody
MIAMI (AP) - Miami police are asking the Department of Children and Family Services to investigate after a 2-year-old boy was found sleepwalking in the streets.
Police say Tavaris Mack was sleeping with several other children at the home of his paternal uncle in the Liberty City neighborhood Friday. Authorities say the boy apparently got up in the middle of the night and walked out of the apartment. He then wandered nearly a block before a pedestrian called police around 4 a.m.
Family members say they awoke to discover the boy missing, and desperately began to search. The Miami Police Department has not filed any criminal charges in the case. DCF is investigating the incident and will determine if the child can return home.
Source: The Miami Herald, http://www.herald.com/
I have sleepwalked myself and I assure you it is not a crime, please allow this child to come home to his parents, they committed no abuse.
In taking this child away from his parents you might be doing more harm than good, please consider giving this family another chance to remain together.

5 Tips: Build Your Network, Build Your Income
The average email contact you have is worth $948 per year in your annual income, as pointed out in a Business Week article/IBM and MIT study in 2009.Since I'd like to see you make more money, below are 5 things you can do on a regular basis to build your network and, thus, your income. 1. Be A "Go-Giver" (Not A Go-Getter)You need to attempt to give more than you receive to be a successful networker. A few of us call this being a "Go-Giver" (which was used in a book of the same name by Bob Burg).BBDO Atmosphere executive (and good friend) Dave Bear put it this way: "People want to help people who want to help people. That's your multiplier. 2. Try Networking One-To-Many (As Opposed to Just One-To-One)One-to-one communication is excellent – both sides feel the love. However, you can get more bang for your networking buck if you put yourself in the position of communicating one-to-many.One example would be to throw a party. You can then email the dozens of folks you'd like to see. Assuming it's a good shindig, those who attend it will place higher value on you. Even folks who can't make the party will feel appreciative. A bigger one-to-many example would be if you put on a conference or seminar for hundreds or thousands – you think Tony Robbins has a big network!? 3. Let People Know You're Thinking Of Them People love to be thought of…it's human nature…we all want to be popular. As I point out in 7 Tips I Use Every Day To Be A Better Networker, here are 7 ways to let people know you're thinking of them:Recommend a partner, customer or hire for themRecommend something they can buyCongratulate them on a career changePut important dates about them on your calendarMention you ran into a mutual contactTell people you are about to attend an eventCongratulate them on press they receive4. Habitualize The Networking ProcessNetworking comes naturally to me, but I still work really hard to make it effective. In particular, here are a few ways I make networking a habit: I do much of my networking while I'm going through my email (twice a day).If I see an article in my inbox that might interest a contact of mine, I quickly forward it to them.DocStoc CEO Jason Nazar told me that he carves out 2 hours per week to reach out to new people.Try asking for someone's business card every time you meet them at a professional event.If it's not part of your routine, you're likely going to do it poorly.5. Introduce People To Each OtherAnytime you have a chance to introduce people who can benefit from knowing each other, just do it. A quick email introduction takes little time… and the two parties will likely credit you down the line with the connection.As Zig Zigler once put it: "Help enough people get what they want and you'll get what you want."

Pride is something most of us understand to a certain extent. Or, at the very least, we think we know what it looks like when we see it. Whether seen in business leaders, politicians, celebrities, or neighbors, there is a type of pride that almost all of us recognize. You can characterize it as bombastic, self-inflating, egotistical self-centeredness. These people are so caught up in and with themselves, that a 'normal' person would just as soon avoid them as deal with them.
In reality, though, pride has other faces that are less noticeable but just as destructive when woven into the fabric of our lives. St. Thomas Aquinas calls pride "the love of one's own excellence." It is equally at home inside our own quiet piety, false humility, and self-reliance. St. Gregory the Great, and St. Thomas Aquinas after him, considered pride to be the "queen" of all vices.
Pride Under the Surface
Think of the sin of pride as if it were a fruit, like the infamous apple from the Garden of Eden. Fruit always grows on a tree, and trees always have roots. If pride is a fruit, then it has a root. The root of the sin of pride (or any sin, for that matter) has room to grow when we are deprived of certain good in our lives, which results in beliefs that deeply influence us. Pride, as a sin, is almost always rooted in some belief about isolation or abandonment. We feel like orphans- making our way in a hostile world.
Most of us have had the experience of being lost as a child, maybe on an outing with family members. When we reflect on a memory like that, we often experience some powerful emotions. We feel alone, unprotected, or uncovered.
We might even hear the voice of our own beliefs, thoughts like, "In the end, I'll always be alone," "It will always be up to me," or "Nobody will be there to protect me." Pride is a coping mechanism for this deficit within ourselves. Before you wag your finger and scream, "A-ha! I knew that about so-and-so," you might want to read on, and see if any of these other, more subtle forms of pride have a place in your life.
Almost every year when we begin to decorate for the holidays, we discover that those Christmas lights that were so carefully put away in January, will emerge from storage in December in a hopelessly knotted and mangled mess. This word-picture describes narcissism. We confuse our God-given special-ness with an illusion of greatness. Our uniqueness to our Heavenly Father becomes tangled up with the littlenessof our humanity before Him. In the world of addiction recovery, this has its own name- terminal uniqueness. We are so confident of our own specialness that we think others cannot relate to us.
If you think that nobody really understands you, or that others can't possibly understand your inner workings, watch out for narcissism. Narcissism hardens our hearts to others since they cannot possibly "get us". Narcissistic beliefs lead to the expectation that everything and everyone around us should be ordered according to our way of thinking.
One of the many faces of pride is self-reliance. We rely on ourselves, acting and believing that God is not to be trusted with a part of our lives. We might trust God in many areas of our lives, but we usually have at least one area that we keep from Him and rely only on ourselves.
It might be in the area of finances, work, or relationships. We prize self-reliance in Western culture, and it is deeply ingrained in the American ethic. In reality, self-sufficiency is just another kind of pride. Our reliance on ourselves is a refusal of the grace and power of God. We live as if we know ourselves and our needs better than God. We live as if we are alone. Self-reliance a way in which we say to God, "I don't need you and I don't trust you." Sooner or later, we will be confronted by a situation that we cannot solve.
When we don't get the things we think we deserve, our frustration can lead us to arrange events and relationships in a way that "helps things along." We've all wondered when our faithfulness, hard work, or patience would finally be rewarded. We try to do the right thing, but like poor George Bailey from the movie It's a Wonderful Life, we've become agitated in the waiting of life. We begin to believe that nobody is looking out for us- not even God. We might believe that He isn't good because He won't give us what we desire, or that He's not capable because He can't give us what we deserve.
Self-promotion may be at work when we find ourselves seeking recognition at the expense of others, boasting, or seeking admiration through our actions. We can even be tempted to promote ourselves for spiritual reasons, boasting about our vocational call, for example, but doing so will simply cause us to move ahead of God's timing.
The Call to Belonging
If our pride is rooted in isolation and abandonment, in the experience of separation, then its antidote is 'belonging.' Rather than orphans, our true calling is to relationship with God. In a particular way, the fatherhood of God helps us to experience the joy and freedom of 'littleness," while being the delight of a loving and watchful 'daddy.' Belonging to God, drawing close to Him, knowing the goodness of His heart for us, replaces the shallow and ineffectual confidence we attempt to muster for ourselves and helps us grow in holiness.

I have a Belkin N150 router. Several Windows XP machines and one Ubuntu machine connect to it successfully.
The problem: A certain Windows 7 Home Premium machine connects inconsistently. (DW 1501 Wireless-N Half-Mini network card. There is also a Broadcom Virtual Wireless adapter, driver version 126.96.36.199).
Usually, the network utility says that it was able to achieve only a partial connection. The network icon shows a connection, but nothing actually works, The troubleshooting utility says nothing.
This Windows 7 machine connects without problems to other wifi networks. This happened with WPA/WPA-2 personal security.When I removed the password from the wifi router, other machines could connect with no password. But the Windows 7 XP network utility now told me that the router had not been configured. If I tried to connect without configuring the router through the Windows 7 network utility, it again failed to connect properly. When I let Windows 7 configure the router, it assigned a random password -- and now the other machines could connect with that password, but the Windows 7 machine still achieved only a "partial" connection.
Any ideas?

Our bronze portrait work is often inspired by simple thoughts, sights, dreams, or memories, and always stems from strong emotion. As artists, we strive to capture that special essence of people which makes that sculpture uniquely them. We concentrate on telling the "story" of the individual through gesture, posture, mannerisms, and attitude.
Many of the sculptures are dark-colored bronze and terra cotta. If you are having difficulty seeing the shadow details, make sure the brightness and contrast on your monitor are correctly adjusted. Test your monitor settings.

Generally, however, people tend to divide Japan into two major cultural areas: Kantō in the East and Kansai in the West. Tokyo and its metropolitan area make up Kantō, the center of Japan's politics and economics since Tokyo became the country's capital in 1869. Its counterpart is Kansai, centered on Kyoto, the ancient city that has been the capital from 794 to 1869. Osaka, known as a major gourmet hot spot and often called the "kitchen of Japan," is also part of Kansai. Of course, such a cultural divide brings its very own subtle and not-so-subtle differences in everyday life, from etiquette to language.

Hodgkins Lymphoma
If you are searching at receiving a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan completed in New Delhi, then obtaining it done from AIIMS (All India Institute of Healthcare Sciences) is an alternative that you may possibly consider. To book a PET/CT scan with Premier Diagnostic Center, download our Patient Referral Type and have it filled out and submitted by a certified practitioner. Therefore PET can detect diseases when anatomic imaging studies are still regular, and may be informative in differentiating benign from malignant method. For some patients, getting to lie nonetheless on the scanning table for the length of the procedure may possibly cause some discomfort or pain. For the 1st scan in 2008 we were nonetheless newbies in our battle against prostate cancer.
Brain pictures obtained with an ordinary (non-PET) nuclear scanner demonstrated the concentration of FDG in that organ. Modern day machines typically use a CT X-ray scan which is performed on a patient at the identical time in the identical machine. A PET scan performs by detecting the distribution of radiation energy given out from the reactions of positrons (positively charged particlesproduced by the radiotracer).
The amount of time it requires for you to get your outcomes will differ based on where you get your scans completed. Digital geometry processing is utilized to produce a 3-D image of the inside of a person from a big series of two-dimensional X-ray images taken around a single axis of rotation. This test entails a pc-primarily based PET scanner and a unique liquid known as a radiopharmaceutical (RAY-dee-oh-far-ma-SOO-tick-ool). The university medical doctors advisable radiation only at the groin region since they believed the lymph node near my heart was a false reading in the PET scan.
The radiation exposure related with a PET/CT scan is related to that associated with traditional imaging exams. PET is regarded to be especially beneficial in evaluating lung, head and neck, colorectal, esophageal, lymphoma, melanoma, breast, thyroid, cervical, pancreatic, and brain cancers. I was then shown to the PET scan machine and, significantly like the CT scan, was instructed to lay on a table that retracted into the machine. A PET and CT scan can be utilised separately, but are far more worthwhile when employed at the exact same time. After it reaches the portion of the body that is getting tested, it sends signals that can be read by the PET scanner and produced into the pictures that the doctors will look at.
1 of the major differences among PET scans and other imaging tests like a CT scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is that the PET scan reveals the cellular level metabolic alterations occurring in an organ or tissue. A handful of days later she was told that the scan showed a modest black spot in a lung.
A single was the positron emission tomography (PET) scanner, which employed a radioactive tracer in the blood stream to map brain regions activated by the stimuli.

The Tumut 000 Charity has donated $500 to the Tumut Men's Shed; the latest proceeds from their hard working fundraising efforts for local projects.
President of the Men's Shed David Wren said donations to the shed always come in handy, as by its nature their woodworking activities constantly need new funding.
"We buy a lot of stuff for the men's shed to do projects, so it'll be spent on materials," he said.
The Tumut 000 Charity is a combined effort from the Tumut Police, Club Tumut, the Health Service, the Ambulance Service, and Fire and Rescue. It's something they started up themselves to contribute to the community – as if those services don't already contribute enough!
However, ex-nurse Jan McGruer said the members also have a lot of fun.
"The main person who started it off was [Tumut Police Sergeant] Bryan Hammond, and we thought we'd do things like raffles to raise money, and make sure it stays in Tumut. Bryan and Peter [Twomey] will be down here at 7.30 in the morning, rain, hail, or shine.
"We enjoy it, we really do! We have the best time meeting up each week, there are some who have brought the load of wood [to raffle] several times over, and they really are supportive. We just love it."
Sometimes the group will take a break from their position on Wynyard Street, in order to make sure all the charities are getting a fair go at reaching the community. That, in itself, is a testament to the people of Tumut, that so many charitable and not-for-profit organisations are able to thrive in a town with a relatively small population.
"We'd like to thank the Tumut community for their support," said Ms McGruer.
"We just really appreciate this community, because they do support us, and between Helen [Wendt], myself, Peter and Bryan, we can usually cover it – and when we're short of helpers we just pull in someone else!"
In the past the group has donated to schools and sporting groups, and this time the lucky recipient is the Tumut Men's Shed.

Going through old pictures has taken me almost 2 years. *lol*
The family, my lola, and I went to The John & Mable Ringling Museum of Art last December 22, 2008. Wow, 22 and 2008. XD; I remember the museum has an expensive ticket fee, but it was worth it. I'm glad one of my grandparents brought us there. 🙂
In the museum garden:
What really awed me were the old paintings. There were Italian, Deutsche, French, and Spanish to name a few. I don't even want to know how much they could possibly cost now.
That's my Dad in the first room
The Triumph of Divine Love by Peter Paul Rubens
Madonna and Child by Sassoferrato
Saint John Writing the Book of Revelation by Carlo Dolci
I am the sadness here and I don't know why
Lamentation by Rembrandt van Rijn
Still Life with Parrots by Jan Davidsz de Heem
Still Life with Dead Game by Frans Snyders
Cephalus Grieving Over the Dying Procris by Abraham Janssens
The Lovers' Pilgrimage by Pierre Goudreaux
The Disguises of Harlequin by Giovanni Domenico Ferretti
Roman Courtship by William Ernest Reynolds-Stephens
The "Blue" Madonna by Carlo Dolci
Ecce Homo by Johann Michael Rottmayr
I have no idea why the artworks in the Baroque section were covered. *shakes head in disappointment*
There was an Egyptian exhibit which was the freakiest section, I think. Cameras were prohibited, so I only got pictures from the activity area. 😛
Other pieces in the museum:
A real grand piano — grand on the details
Royal Wedding by Thomas Dobbie — want!
Guess who photobombed this family pic. >_>
We went to a lot of places in Florida. I have to go through all the pictures and brag them. *lol* J/k! All the pictures from the museum are uploaded in my Flickr and Facebook. 🙂
