text: Brand Identity Conference Print Page Page Image Save the date for the Brand Authenticity Conference! November 30-December 1, 2017 Berlin, Germany Registration opens September, 2017! Brand Authenticity Many would say that a brand is a promise—a promise of quality, of consistency…of something intangible that attracts and retains consumers. Consumer norms, priorities and expectations are evolving, with technological advances and many socio-economic and environmental challenges playing a part, and brands must evolve with consumers. Brands face the challenge of remaining pillars of consistency while also responding to, or even being the leaders of, change. Brands come to represent not only products or services, but a "promise" of how they are made and/or delivered and who the people are that create and deliver them. No longer is the question simply whether the "thing" is fit for purpose; consumers want to know about how it was made, by whom, how producers and workers were treated, and what they did in and for our communities. How does a brand owner impact the environment, how does it treat its employees, partners, and consumers? Join us in Berlin for the Brand Authenticity conference on November 30 and December 1, 2017, as we answer the question of How Sustainability, Corporate Social Responsibility and Integrity Impact Your Bottom Line. This advanced-level, two-day program brings together key business stakeholders, sustainability and CSR experts, government officials and legal experts who will offer a high-level discourse on current business realities and key issues that business and legal professionals need to understand. We'll talk about what a brand is to a consumer, and what role each of us plays in delivering and protecting brand authenticity. Legal and business professionals, as well as government relations, advertising and marketing specialists, would all benefit from attending this program. Details coming soon!

Stroke Recovery: An unjoyful noise

Sorry to hear about your voice, but knowing your stickability you will make a good job of strengthening muscles and so forth. Incidentally, because of breathing problems and hypertension, I sit in church and that enables me to sing a little - but very softly. FREDA from Dalamory

- Sandra said...
this is sad, but your stroke did not harm you humor at all. i laughed long and loud at the closing paragraph..love they neighbor is hilarious.. maybe the breathing will help you with the singing. hope so.. you can always get a little recording of Happy birthday and play it for them.

I have never heard of this, I am sorry. I also never knew that stroke changes your breathing pattern this long afterwards. Well, it has not changed your hearing, and you are well otherwise. I hope these exercises will help. Walter made a wise decision! I love singing out really loud in church, and I think now that you know about it and are working on it, it will come back, like so much else has come back for you.

You are so sweet to put a somewhat humorous spin on this loss of singing ability. My singing leaves a lot to be desired, and our worship band is LOUD so I can sing along quietly. Your therapy sounds like it will have excellent results.

Don't feel bad. David graduated with a degree in music education, but when he sings karaoke, he is always off key. Lol.

As someone who lip syncs Happy Birthday, I feel your pain and totally understand "love thy neighbor."
Still it is much harder to have been rich in voice to suddenly become poor. I have always been poor. I do hope the exercises give you back an acceptable singing voice. If not, lip syncing works well.
Walter continues to shine.

I might have mentioned that I had the same issue. A speech therapist told me she could help, but I never could sing anyway. Dianne

Just lovely pumpkins, but even better, wonderful new voice. I too had to go to a speech therapist. It's certainly fascinating stuff. Get stronger fast.
- October 28, 2013 at 1:13 PM
Don't feel too bad, Linda. I can't carry a tune in a bucket. Glad to hear that the exercises are helping your voice though :)
- October 29, 2013 at 7:06 PM

I admire your stick-to-it attitude. It's wonderful that there are speech therapists who can help with the breathing exercises.
Keep at it and
Make a Joyful Noise.

A 3am Lie from the Osama Bin Biden Campaign
WASHINGTON (AP) _ Barack Obama named Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware as his vice presidential running mate early Saturday, balancing his ticket with a seasoned congressional veteran well-versed in foreign policy and defense issues.
Obama announced the pick on his Web site with a photo of the two men and an appeal for donations. A text message went out shortly afterward that said, "Barack has chosen Senator Joe Biden to be our VP nominee."
Biden, 65, has twice sought the White House, and is a Catholic with blue-collar roots, a generally liberal voting record and a reputation as a long-winded orator.
Across more than 30 years in the Senate, he has served at various times not only as chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee but also as head of the Judiciary Committee, with its jurisdiction over anti-crime legislation, Supreme Court nominees and Constitutional issues.
In selecting Biden, Obama passed over several other potential running mates, none more prominent than former first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton, his tenacious rival in dozens of primaries and caucuses.
Obama's campaign arranged a debut for the newly minted ticket on Saturday outside the Old State Capitol in Springfield, Ill.
Obama's decision leaked to the media several hours before his aides planned to send a text message announcing the running mate, negating a promise that people who turned over their phone numbers would be the first to know who Obama had chosen. The campaign scrambled to send the text message after the leak, sending phones buzzing at the inconvenient time of just after 3 a.m. on the East coast.
Tucked away in one corner were thousands of lightweight rolled cardboard tubes, ready-made handles for signs bearing the names of the Democratic ticket — once the identity of Obama's running mate was known.

text: The translation of both words is easy: причастие, participle, participate of meanings of verb and adjective. But as for деепричастие, gerund, which shade adds this "дее" ? Making a joke one could say that obviously it makes it deeper and it is a глубокий/ deep причастие. I haven't seen this prefix "дее" in other words. Thanks.

Dear Fellow Dads,
I love my boys – all five of them – and I want the very best for them. I want them to grow up to be mighty men who fear God, and God alone. But I also want them to be tender, humble, self-sacrificing men who lay down their lives for others.
Sometimes it's tempting to look for a special formula that will guarantee our sons will turn out exactly as we envision. There isn't a special formula.
I'm convinced, however, that there is a special journey. This is the journey of a father walking beside his son into manhood. This is the journey of a father giving his heart to his sons, with the desire for their hearts in return.
This is the journey I'm seeking to walk with my five boys. And if you desire to walk this journey too, I'd like to invite you to listen to the recording of this Christian Heritage OnAir Live Video Broadcast recorded on August 5, as we explore:[bullet_list icon="check"]
- How we can give our hearts to our sons, and truly make the effort to gain their's.
- How we can build trust with our sons.
- How we can help our sons reach their full potential, acknowledging their unique natural gifts, spiritual gifts, personalities, and passions.
- How we can train our sons to understand the importance of work and diligence.
- How we can lovingly chasten our sons as our Heavenly Father chastens us.
- How we can teach our sons to love God and others, preferring others better than themselves.
- How we can give our sons the opportunity to exercise leadership….and fail in the process.

What happened at Sharpeville On 21st March 1960 - Massacre or Self defence: source related study.
Extracts from this document...
Coursework- What happened at Sharpeville On 21st March 1960-Massacre or Self defence Study Sources A & B 1. How far do these sources agree about what happened in Sharpeville on the morning of 21st March? Use the sources to explain your answer. Source A is an extract from Humphrey Tyler early in the day at Sharpeville. He was the only journalist to witness the events at Sharpeville. Source B is a report by an English paper on the 22nd March 1960. Both of the sources agree and disagree about the events at Sharpeville. They both agree that the blacks were there to protest peacefully and just chanting and that there were reinforcements for the whites in the form of the Saracens. The two sources also disagree, they disagree that the black were being violent and abusive they also disagree about ............ Source A is all about the blacks and how they were acting. They were acting peacefully and cheerfully. There was a peaceful atmosphere and you could tell this when Tyler writes "Some kids waved to the policeman sitting on the Saracens, and the two of them waved back". The also says to me that was peaceful because Tyler described the day as a "Sunday outing". ...read more.
The Source is also reliable because the Bishop is a religious man and it would be seen as a sin if he had lied. The statement " Nearly all of those who were later treated in hospital had been shot in the back"; this says to me that the blacks were running away. The fact that the people who were running away can be checked because if they were running away they would have been shot in the back. This means that the Source is reliable because the facts can be checked over and it is visual evidence that means that people cant make it up, it is hard evidence. Another fact that makes the Source reliable is that the Bishop is white and you would expect him to take the white point of view and defend the whites. However, although there were a lot of factors that meant that the Source was reliable, there are also factors that make the Source unreliable. For instance the fact that the Bishop wasn't there and doesn't know what went on and is just taking the blacks word for it, but the blacks want to abolish the apartheid and so even though they haven't talked to each other they know what every one else will say. ...read more.
For example Source H is the view of the Colonel Pioneer the leader of the defences e.g. the police, and Source I is the view of Dr Veorwood who was the Prime Minister of South Africa. Veorwood is the person who instigated the idea for apartheid. Veorwood basically says that it was the blacks that who were at fault because there were so many of them who were acting violently and provocatively. An example of this is when Veorwood says, "the demonstrators were entering peoples homes and forcibly removing their identity books". This is the only Source that it says anything like this in so how can it be believable when you have someone that is strongly for apartheid, and who wasn't even there when someone like Tyler was there and isn't biased. Tyler doesn't mention anything about this matter so this is why Veorwood's account isn't reliable. Veorwood is just exaggerating the truth to get people on his side. An example of this is when he says, "The crowds grew until there was some 20,000 people there", when we know from Tyler's report that there was only just 4,000 people there. Source H was a speech from Colonel Pioneer also showed the white point of view and the same as Veorwood's. You can tell this because he comments on ...read more.

YSL Seeing Red
The legal battle over whether YSL infringed on Louboutin's red sole mark continues. On Wednesday YSL answered Louboutin's complaint seeking a preliminary injunction. The issue stems from YSL's red pump with a red sole, which CL argues infringes upon it's red-sole trademark obtained in 2008. Next Friday's hearing will determine whether or not stores can continue to sell YSL's red pump. See original complaint here.
In it's answer YSL, claims Louboutin can't show irreparable harm or consumer confusion, which is important in obtaining the injunction. In addition YSL has filed its own counterclaims challenging the validity of Louboutin's red sole trademark, arguing a fashion designer should not be able to monopolize any color and the Louboutin trademark should have never been granted. The attorney for CL notes they are not claiming ownership of all red soles but only a bright lacquered red.
YSL does raise an interesting point–should a designer be able to trademark a color? Some companies have trademarked colors for their product–think Tiffany blue, but the doctrine of aesthetic functionality may suggest otherwise for CL. Under the doctrine when an attractive product feature serves a purpose beyond identifying the source of a product as being sold by a certain company, the feature might not be protectable as a trademark. This is because it would interfere with legitimate competition by allowing the producer sole control of a useful product feature.
Does red envoke luxury or sexiness and therefore have a functional role? Arguably red soles have no purpose beyond identifying the source of the good but they are an important attribute in the commercial success of Louboutin shoes which
sparked others to add color to their soles.
Check back for the ruling from New York's Southern District.

When training for the running segment of the triathlon, it's very important to warm up properly. Warming up before the actual run with stretching prepares the muscles for the actual exertion of effort, and minimizes the risk of injury that may occur. Here are some light stretches for the shoulders and hamstrings along with light movements

A house's foundation is a vital part of construction, securing and anchoring the building to the ground. However, the exposed cement rim on the exterior of the home may not be attractive to the owner, instead, creating an unfinished appearance on an otherwise flawless building and landscape. If you want to improve your home's appearance by hiding its foundation, there are several techniques from which to choose.
Paint the foundation walls to blend in with your house's color scheme and to hide the gray cement color. On newly built homes, apply the paint only after the concrete foundation has cured for at least a month. Use exterior concrete paint for the best coverage. Make designs or murals along the foundation walls to show off a creative personality.
Install stone or slate over the foundation to hide the original surface materials. Use real stone by installing a layer of mortar on the wall and pressing the stones into place in a pattern of your choosing. Use faux stone, which is more lightweight, for a lower-cost alternative. Apply construction adhesive to the back of the faux stone and press onto the foundation's surface.
Hide your house's foundation by using landscaping around the base of the building. Use a short fence that starts in the ground and extends slightly higher than the foundation walls. Use plants, such as evergreen bushes like holly or juniper, to hide the foundation at all times of year. Place a low trellis fence along the foundation and plant vines to combine the two methods.
Build a low deck or wrap-around porch on some of the walls. A deck or porch hides the foundation and creates an attractive feature you can use for outdoor dining or relaxing.
Hide the foundation with durable tiles. Select ceramic tiles for a more traditional look or use colorful glass tiles for a modern vibe on your home's exterior. Use tiles of varying colors to create a pattern or turn the foundation into a work of art by making a mosaic picture.

Bariatric surgery, also called weight loss surgery, helps severely obese people lose weight.
In doing so, it also helps prevent or improve obesity-related conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure.
During a bariatric procedure, a surgeon removes or blocks off part of your stomach. This leaves you feeling fuller sooner and reduces your desire to eat.
Some types of bariatric surgery also limit your body's absorption of calories from food.
Am I a good candidate for bariatric surgery?
Bariatric surgery is an effective way to lose weight and reduce the risk of obesity-related health problems. It might be a good choice for you if these statements are true:
- You are morbidly obese. This means you have a BMI, or body mass index, of at least 40, or a BMI of at least 35 plus an obesity-related disease such as diabetes or high blood pressure. Determine your BMI.
- You have tried to lose weight using other methods and they have not worked.
- You are committed to making the changes necessary for long-term success. Surgery is only the beginning of the weight-loss journey. To lose weight and keep it off — which most bariatric surgery patients are able to do — you will have to commit to making healthy choices.
Types of bariatric surgery
Surgeons at Rush will work with you to determine which type of surgery makes the most sense based on your goals, your age, your overall health and other factors.
They offer the full range of bariatric procedures:
- Laparoscopic gastrectomy, during which the surgeon removes part of the stomach, leaving a small sleeve-shaped stomach tube that limits food intake.
- Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB), during which the surgeon places an adjustable silicone band around the upper portion of the stomach to artificially limit its size.
- Gastric bypass, during which the surgeon blocks off part of your stomach and attaches the remaining pouch directly to the small intestine. This means food bypasses parts of the intestine that usually absorb calories.
- Duodenal switch, during which your surgeon combines laparoscopic gastrectomy and gastric bypass techniques (needed only rarely).
- Revision surgery, during which your surgeon corrects problems that led to complications or weight gain after a previous bariatric procedure.
Benefits of bariatric surgery
- Lasting weight loss: Bariatric surgery is a highly effective long-term treatment for morbid obesity. The majority of people who have bariatric surgery are able to lose their excess weight and keep it off, according to research measuring weight loss five years after surgery.
- Reduced risk of disease: Losing weight lowers your risk of obesity-related diseases such as stroke, heart disease and Type 2 diabetes. In some cases, it can even cure existing problems such as Type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure.
- Longer life: Research has shown that people who have bariatric surgery have a lower risk of dying from obesity-related conditions, compared to severely obese people who do not have bariatric surgery.
- Improved quality of life: Losing weight after surgery can improve your self-esteem, sexual performance, mobility and mental health.
Why choose Rush for bariatric surgery
- Care for the whole person: Surgery isn't the only part of weight loss. That's why Rush's Center for Weight Loss and Lifestyle Medicine that also includes a medical weight loss specialist, dietitians, psychologists and other experts who can help you prepare for and adjust to life after surgery.
- Experienced surgeons: Surgeons at Rush have performed more than 2,000 bariatric procedures. Research suggests that experienced surgeons have better outcomes and lower complication rates.
- Minimally invasive expertise: Surgeons at the Rush Center for Weight Loss and Lifestyle Medicine have all completed specialized training in minimally invasive surgical techniques. These techniques, which involve only small incisions, can lead to faster recovery and less pain after surgery. Bariatric surgeons at the center use minimally invasive techniques in almost all cases.
- Expertise in body contouring surgery: Sometimes patients who have achieved their weight loss goals want additional surgery to remove excess skin and reshape underlying tissues. The team at Rush includes plastic surgeons with expertise in these procedures.
- Treatments backed by research: In addition to treating patients, bariatric surgeons at Rush have published multiple studies on bariatric surgical techniques, outcomes and quality of life.

Trump Spox: Bernie Sanders Supporters 'Sending Me Messages' They Will Back Trump If Hillary Clinton 'Steals' Dem Nomination
It's not only Republican's who are feeling disheartened by the process set up by the Uni-Party bosses. The establishment DNC is pulling the same dirty tricks as the GOP establishment candidates, trying to override the people's votes through the use of delegates. Here are the highlights from the WSJ article;
Fight Over Delegate Rules Escalates For Both Parties
"Among Democrats, a parallel debate about the balance between primary voters and party insiders has broken out over the role of superdelegates, the party officials and activists who can vote at the convention for whoever they choose. Mrs. Clinton's lead over Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders among superdelegates—estimated at 469 to 31—is far larger than her percentage lead in raw votes.
Going into the New York balloting, the former secretary of state holds an overall 1,758 to 1,076 delegate lead over Mr. Sanders in the Democratic race, with 2,383 delegates needed to win the nomination.
Some Democrats say superdelegates should be scrapped so that the process relies only on primary and caucus results. That is the position of Rep. Ron Kind (D., Wis.), a superdelegate himself, who believes the system risks undermining the will of the voters.
The nominating rules are under more challenge than at any point since the turbulent 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago, when anti-Vietnam War activists protested that they had been shut out of the nominating process. That triggered changes within both parties that gave voters a larger voice through primaries and caucuses.
"They're saying, 'I want a process that reflects me, not that controls me,' " said Democratic pollster Peter D. Hart. " 'I've voted; I've watched on TV; I've been part of it, and now you're going to tell me that you're going to run an inside game? Forget it.' ''
Donald Trump's spokesperson, Katrina Pierson, was on Breitbart yesterday and said;
"I've got Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) people sending me messages — it's surreal — saying that if they steal the nomination from Bernie they're voting for Trump" she added. "So he is definitely the only candidate that can beat Hillary Clinton in the fall."
I am confidant Donald Trump will defeat Ted Cruz regardless of his dirty delegate stealing tricks. I like the way Donald Trump thinks and I believe Bernie Sander's supporters will too. Mr. Trump said:
"We don't have much of a race anymore," Trump declared.
He added that Cruz was nearly mathematically eliminated, but insisted that system was "crooked" and he sought to "go back to the old way."
"Nobody should be given delegates, which is a ticket to victory, and it's not a fair ticket. And even though we're leading by a lot and we can't be caught–it's impossible to catch us–nobody should take delegates and claim victory unless they get those delegates with voters and voting, and that's what's going to happen. And you watch. Because the people aren't going to stand for it. It's a crooked system, it's a system that's rigged, and we're gonna go back to the old way. It's called 'You vote and you win.'"
As we previously reported, Democrats were already ditching and switching to Trump. I would like to welcome Bernie Sander's supporters. I do not believe Bernie Sander's will be able to beat the crooked system that Hillary Clinton and her DNC establishment allies have employed. We are all Americans first and foremost and together we will make American Great Again!

Awareness of the need for data security continues to increase among businesses and consumers alike, and one of the most tangible signs that people are taking security seriously is the record attendance at last month's RSA Conference. More than 43,000 attendees – from security professionals to IT staff to c-level executives – descended on San Francisco to learn about the latest security trends, gaps and solutions.
As we try to advance security strategies to manage evolving threats, it's key to learn from each other. Naomi Eide with CIODive included suggestions from influential security leaders in her recent article, "7 experts share their personal cybersecurity habits." The tips focused on security basics associated wi-fi, passwords and mobile devices, and her article inspired us to reiterate another foundational security practice – protecting email, a top threat vector for huge data loss.

{Post brought to you in conjunction with Compare the Market}
Many Australians are sacrificing things in order to afford health insurance. Health insurance is crucial to me. We use it a lot and I have needed it to get treatment fast.
Looking at some recent research from Compare TheMarket, I saw many give up restaurants, take away food, donating to charities, gifts, travel, alcohol, entertainment such as movies or even work during holidays in order to afford health insurance.
Instead of cutting everything out, here are some ideas on how to find the money for health insurance, especially with the rate rise without sacrificing lifestyle.
1.) Compare and switch
Do this for health insurance, car insurance, home and contents, telephone plan, internet package, electricity, gas and any services you use. Compare the plans, what each includes and find the best option at the lowest price for you. I have done this and saved thousands of dollars over the course of the year, more than enough to cover my annual health insurance costs.
2.) Charitable donations
I am an advocate for Share The Dignity and have done a lot of charity work so recommend not giving up charitable donations, however it doesn't have to be only monetary donations. You can volunteer at events or on special occasions, donate a smaller amount, donate goods or promote them on social media to assist in raising awareness and funding for them.
3.) Travel
I love to travel and can't imagine giving it up. I have written a few articles to help reduce expenses and articles such as 29 ways to make money whiletravelling, even as a family.
Travel enriches your life and the long term benefit is huge. By turning your travel into a money making venture or looking at how you can reduce the cost such as travelling in off peak times, using points, taking only carry on and only buying what you need, you don't have to give up travel. With proper planning you might even make enough money from travelling to cover all your expenses or cover health insurance.
Life is about blending everything you want and need, finding the balance and what works for you. When you focus on what you need to cut or reduce in order to afford the things you need it can get quite depressing. Instead of looking at all the things you have to sacrifice, change your view and see how you can either make more money with it or how you can do it differently to still have it in your life.
These are just a few things you could do. What have you sacrificed to keep health insurance or how have you juggled things in your life to maintain the lifestyle you want without sacrifice?

- North Carolina (22-1) scored its first run in the bottom of the fourth innings. Brian Holberton led off the inning with a walk, moving to third on a single by Mike Zolk. After an out, Chaz Frank blooped a single just into right field, scoring Holberton, giving the Tar Heels a 1-0 advantage.
- With two outs in the top of the fifth inning VCU's offense went to work. Junior Bill Cullen and freshman James Bunn reached on back-to-back singles, advancing into scoring position on a wild pitch. The next batter, Cujas roped a single into the right-center-field gap, plating Cullen and Bunn, giving VCU a 2-1 lead.
- The Tar Heels didn't quit and scored the tying run in the bottom of the ninth inning. Skye Bolt and Cody Stubbs started the rally on back-to-back bunt singles, with Bolt advancing to third on a VCU throwing error. The next batter, Michael Russell sent a fly ball to center field, which was deep enough to score Bolt, tying the score 2-2. VCU got out of the inning, sending the game to extra innings.
- After UNC held VCU without a run in the top of the 10th inning, the Tar Heels won the game in the bottom half of the inning. With one out Landon Lassister singled to start the North Carolina rally. After an out and an intentional walk, Cody Stubbs drove the ball off of the wall to give North Carolina the walk-off 3-2 win.
- Freshman Michael Carpenter and junior Bryce Lee made their VCU debuts on the mound tonight. Carpenter threw 2.0 innings, with three hits, a run and two strike outs. While Lee allowed a hit and two walks, but got out of his inning unscathed.
- Junior Logan Kanuik threw 2.1 innings of relief, just allowing two hits for VCU.
- Sophomore Matt Lees, who was charged with the loss, threw 2.1 innings, allowing just one earned run.
- Cujas recorded his 13th and 14th RBIs with his two-out RBI single.
- Freshman Dan Black made his first career start, tossing two innings and allowing only one hit.
- UNC's Chris McCue threw the final 2.1 innings to earn his fifth win of the season.
"It is disappointing result, but I am extremely pleased with the effort. I thought we came out tonight and showed great intent with everything we did. The way we defended the baseball and the way pitched. I am happy the way our young guys, who got the chance to pitch, came out and competed against the best team in the country. I thought we did a great job competing for our at-bats, not necessarily getting the results we wanted, but our approaches were great. I think it gives us some momentum moving forward, as long as we continue to do the things we did tonight."
-Head Coach Shawn Stiffler
VCU continues its Atlantic 10 schedule with a trip to Charlotte this weekend. The Rams and 49ers will play a three-game series starting on Friday, March 29 at 6 p.m.

City parking department holding its own
Despite the recession, Grand Rapids Parking Services has continued to do well financially. At the same time, the department has added facilities and embraced technology to give its downtown customers more parking choices and payment options to fill their parking needs.
Parking Commission Chairwoman Lisa Haynes said the city-owned service has had good results in a tough economy because the department has operated as a business and has focused on improving customer service.
Parking Services is on track to record more than a $2 million surplus this fiscal year, which ends June 30. And the department has projected a bigger margin, about $2.6 million, for the next fiscal year — even though revenue from parking is expected to fall below $11 million for the first time in years. The 2012 surplus is being aided by a $600,000 cut in expenses that will include nearly a $100,000 reduction in personnel cost and a $200,000 drop in debt-service payments.
Commissioners upped the department's fiscal year spending last week by adding $25,000 to the $80,000 they awarded in May to the city's Office of Film, Music and Special Events.
Todd Tofferi, who directs the office, will use the money to hire a seasonal employee who will work directly with merchants and event organizers to make sure that any street closing will be tolerable to both parties. The new employee also will work with Parking Services on some downtown events, such as the week-long Rock the Rapids concert series in August.
"I'm flexible in terms of working with Parking," he said.
Tofferi said his new hire will work from April through October, the season for events, and will go door-to-door to talk with merchants and address any concerns they might have about an event, such as noise, street closings and parking issues.
"I can use this individual when we're down in the field to make sure everything is in place," he said. "We'd like to see what we can do to get the merchants more involved with the events."
Tofferi said the new employee will also upgrade the office's website to provide more information on events and help develop a cost-benefit analysis to determine the effect street closings have on traffic to businesses and ways to mitigate the impact. Tofferi said it would cost the department about $21,000 for the seasonal worker.
"I'm asking for a little bit more than that to build in a cushion," he said.
"The office of special events certainly benefits parking revenues," said Enterprise Services Director Pam Ritsema. "The city has pretty much gone to a temp agency to hire seasonal employees. But we can recommend someone."
Haynes said the West Fulton Business Association wants to debut an event in August and asked Tofferi if he would meet with the group. "They're new at doing this," she said.
Tofferi said he would meet with West Fulton. "We do have a lot of neighborhood associations that have events. Part of our goal is to have more of those."
There are 44 events scheduled downtown this season. That number was compiled before Rock the Rapids was approved and doesn't include events in business districts.
The 2012 forecast has Parking Services taking in $10.9 million from parking revenue and $190,000 from interest on investments for total revenue of $11.1 million. Expenditures are expected to be $8.5 million, leaving the department with roughly a $2.6 million surplus.
Parking Services is an enterprise fund, a city department that doesn't receive tax dollars and must raise its own revenue. The water, energy, and environmental departments also are enterprise funds.

A single glance at the new line is enough to realize the collector value of the new offerings.

Tapman (Ski Ba Bop Ba Dop Bop)
A couple of days ago Edwin sent in a staggering 7 images.¬† Here is the first in the series. This is a mixer tap that looks like a little man (and for those wanting to be politically correct, he's definitely a man, otherwise the post title doesn't work) – the Tapman, like the Scatman but different.¬† Remember Scatman John?¬† I'm listening to his song "Scatman" as I type this.¬† It's amazing how timeless this tune is.¬† At the time it might have been¬†perceived to be "modern" and "loud", going "boom boom boom boom boom", but compared to some of the modern stuff kids listen to these days this is pretty tame and melodic and lyrically quite inspiring to people with speech impediments.
As an aside, when Scatman John scats, he sounds like he's speaking gibberish in Vaxian…
Lord of the Pies
Bought sandwiches are full of fat and are expensive.  But is there a convenient way to eat healthy food?
A couple of days ago I wrote about the Royal Wedding (Kate someone and Bill something or other… ūüėČ ) and mentioned the variety of memorabilia that are on sale, which included sick bags and pies.¬† A close cousin of the pie is the pasty. ¬†They are both pastry-based foodstuffs, yet they look different.¬† And I have just caught myself unnecessarily increasing the word count of this article by stating the bleeding obvious.¬† I call it nihilwafflication.
There is a nice pasty shop on the high street in the town in Wiltshire where I work. Their pasties are delicious, albeit a bit expensive.  I had a sudden craving for them recently, possibly to do with the sudden change in temperature.
Have you ever noticed how your appetite for certain foods varies with the seasons and the weather?  Maybe not, but I for one don't find fresh fruit and vegetables particularly appealing in the winter or when it is cold.  Perhaps this is because vegetables, like cucumbers and tomatoes (technically not a vegetable but a fruit), are kept in the fridge and make you feel cold.
People often speak of good and bad foods, but surely no food is that bad if eaten in moderation.¬† Pies and pasties are definitely not foods I would eat every day, as they are not just bad for you but actually evil.¬† More on this later…
Packed lunch
I have recently taken to making my own lunch again after a prolonged period of buying ready made sandwiches, sushi, pasta, pasties and other such expensive junk.¬† This is mostly in a drive to eat more healthily and as an added bonus, it is cheaper.¬† Most bought sandwiches contain shocking amounts of fat, usually in the form of mayonnaise and some actually contain more calories than a Big Mac (although interestingly the calorific value of the latter varies by country).¬† I recently read McDonald'Äôs were paying rappers for dropping the word 'ÄúBig Mac'ÄĚ into their 'Äúsongs'ÄĚ.¬† So, Mr Kroc (he'Äôs dead, I know), that'Äôll be ¬£100 please.¬† Paypal preferred! ūüėČ
Yesterday I was talking to my colleague about the nuisance of making packed lunches and he told me his secret.  He usually buys bread, cheese and peanut butter (I did question the combination, but apparently it is delicious) and makes one humongous batch of sandwiches out of the entire loaf, putting them all back in the original bag and freezing the lot.  Apparently if you take out your day's lunch in the morning it will be defrosted by lunchtime.  The only drawback is that you can't have cucumber or any other vegetables whose cell membranes are ruptured in the freezer.  But there's nothing stopping you slicing fresh cucumber and adding it on the day.  This has the added benefit that your bread doesn't go soggy.
So there you have it, free culinary tips dispensed by John (not his real name) to Vic, to you.  Who'd have thunk it!  Is there nothing Vic Suckerbag won't do?
Lord of the Pies
This bad boy in the photograph is a delicious Cornish Pasty 'Äď or it might even have been a steak and stilton pasty.¬† Whatever it was, it is now a part of me. ¬†Reiterating what I said above, it is not a bad food 'Äď nay, it is pure evil: it is one bad-ass mo fo!¬† Forget the Lord of the Flies, this is the evil Lord of the Pies.¬† Eat too many and they will haunt you and cling onto you, only to let go after vigorous exercise.¬†
Anyone for a frozen cheese and peanut butter sandwich?

StarTribune: Broadway actor Robert Dorfman stars at Children's Theatre
By Rohan Preston
Broadway actor Robert Dorfman talks about his life, career and moving to the Twin Cities for love.
Broadway and screen actor Robert Dorfman, 63, is probably best known in the Twin Cities for playing Shylock at the Guthrie Theater in spring 2007 in "The Merchant of Venice." That production kicked up discussions around tolerance and stereotypes. But the actor made his name in Larry Kramer's AIDS-themed play "The Normal Heart," which opened in April 1985 at the Public Theater in New York and is being made into a film directed by Ryan Murphy.
Dorfman has acted in "The Lion King" and "The Drowsy Chaperone" in New York and at regional theaters across the country. He has had plentiful character roles on screen, including on such TV shows as "Boardwalk Empire," "L.A. Law" and the short-lived drama "Leg Work," where he played a Jewish sidekick. He recently moved from New York to the Twin Cities, where he is starring in the one-person preschool show "Balloonacy" at Children's Theatre. We caught up with him between performances recently.
Q What made you decide to relocate to the Twin Cities?
A I came here for personal reasons. I fell in love with Jim Lichtscheidl, who is a just an extraordinary actor/artist and a wonderful man. I like to say I'm in my third trimester of life, and to be so invigorated, in my personal and professional life, that's exciting.
Q But you have longtime ties to the Twin Cities.
A Yes. I grew up in the projects in Brooklyn. I wanted to be a clown, so I went to clown school down in Florida. I performed with the Flying Karamazovs and did that for a while. But when I wanted to get into something more serious, I came out and auditioned for the Guthrie. That was in 1982. Through pluck, luck and open calls, I got hired, and did "Candide" for [former Guthrie artistic director] Garland Wright, and "As You Like It." Garland recommended me to some people, and it set me off on this journey of serious theater.
Q And you did "The Normal Heart," which put you on the map.
A Yes, it did. I got a high-powered agent out of it. I got work in TV and Hollywood. And the play was special. When we started, our audience was made up of mostly people with lesions. Then, in the middle of the run, Rock Hudson died of AIDS, and overnight, the audience changed. It was all kinds of people out there and we saw that AIDS was no longer a pariah disease.
Q Now you are doing "Balloonacy," Barry Kornhauser's wordless piece where you can go back to using physical theater.
A It's based on an old French film, "The Red Balloon," about a little boy who is hurriedly on his way somewhere. He finds a beautiful balloon entangled. He saves it, and they become friends. The conceit of this show is that this little boy is now an old man. And he's forgotten how to play, how to live with other people. The balloon flies into the window and wants to play. It insists on a relationship and ultimately friendship.
Q The emotional arc reminds me of a crabby old man and a playful puppy. The puppy wants to have fun but the old man would rather remain crotchety. He finally relents, but then something comes up and throws a wrench in the friendship before everything gets straightened out in the end.
A Exactly. Parents love it and children, this is their native language. It is about friendship, about what it means to share yourself, your energy and time with someone.
Q You've worked with some heavyweights in your life, including Julie Taymor. How does a show like this compare to, say, "The Lion King"?
A This is as hard a job as it is doing a musical on Broadway and it has the same satisfaction. The communion with the children, you can't recommend it enough. They are at an age where they believe everything. If you make a single false move, they catch it immediately. They keep me very honest in a piece that's so over-the-top physically. This is as big an acting lesson as I've had in my 40-year career.
Q But you are officially retired, no?
A Yes. I'm drawing a full pension from Actors' Equity. They allow me to work. And I'm drawing a partial pension from [the Screen Actors Guild]. For a guy who came out of the projects with no education, I've been very lucky. I had a TV series ["Leg Work"]. I got to work with some great directors and actors. I got an education along the way.
Q You also seem free.
A When you're an actor, you're constantly unemployed. Every job ends. I've been lucky that I've always had work. But this period of my life is incredibly exciting. Every day is a great big gift.

My name is Alison Siwica. I am seventeen years old and I live in Orlando, Florida. I have been fortunate enough to be chosen for the Rotary Exchange Program. I can't believe my luck in being selected to spend a year in Brazil. I can't imagine a more exotic and exciting way to spend a year of my life. There are so many things that intrigue me about Brazil, from the obvious things like the Amazon, the rain forests, and the rich history, to the extraordinary political/social/cultural aspects of this fascinating nation: hey, it's got to be a great place if it has a female president doesn't it?I am a senior at Edgewater High School in Downtown, Orlando. My favorite class is History, which is probably why I so look forward to going to Brazil: I can't imagine the equator, dipping my feet into the waters of the Amazon (it will no longer be something that exists only in books), and meeting the people of another continent. I have a younger sister, named Lizzie, who is understandably very jealous of this incredible opportunity. I think my parents are a little jealous as well. Although I have had several opportunities to travel, including a short class trip to Southern and Western Europe, this will be the first time I have been away from my family for such a long period of time; I look forward to the adventure.I think the exchange program is something I've always wanted to do, but just never knew it. I expect to learn more about myself and to grow as a person. I also want a global perspective for the future. However, I have to admit that I am a little bit scared of that first time I will have to make my way on my own, with a Portuguese dictionary as my only friend.This brings me to my biggest fear. It isn't being lonely, and it isn't being homesick; rather, it is being able to communicate and sharing my thoughts and ideas in an entirely foreign environment. But overcoming this fear and becoming a part of the community and the society, and sharing thoughts and ideas with people from another culture, like Brazil, is the point of the exchange program. Alison's Journals October 17, 2011On the day of my departure, I never felt so many mixed emotions in my life. When I looked back at my mom, dad, sister, and best friend, I couldn't feel my legs. And when I walked forward, I knew I was on my own. I took a deep breath and didn't look back. I knew that I could do this and I knew it would be the journey of a lifetime.I cannot believe two months have already gone by. It feels like just yesterday I was getting off the plane. When I saw my family for the first time, I loved them immediately. Their home is absolutely amazing. And they have the cutest dog named Julie.I'm not going to lie, on my first day of school I was terrified. It's always scary to start at a new school (especially if you are in a different country and you don't speak the language). When I walked into my first class, I was surrounded. Everyone was coming up to me and asking me so many questions. I couldn't believe how nice everyone was. And I was already being invited to parties! Oddly enough, I actually enjoy going to school now! And it makes it even better that it ends at 12:30.Everyday I take the bus home from school. I was scared I would mess up and end up on the opposite side of the city, but it turned out to be easy. The hardest part has been the language. But I know it will get easier soon. I also can't stop eating. The food is absolutely amazing and there is always so much! It's a dream come true.This amazing place has already changed me so much. It has made me grow up and become more independent. This has been the most exciting and eye opening experience I have ever had. I truly am having the time of my life.January 2012Wow! I can't believe it is already January! It feels like I just arrived in Brazil yesterday. I have been having the time of my life these last five months. Christmas was definitely memorable. Almost the entire family (about 25 people) gathered at my house and celebrated for a week. There was an endless amount of food, beverages, and things to do. It was amazing experience. And on Christmas day, we did a Secret Santa and a lot of people said a little speech. I decided to make a speech too to thank everyone for making me feel like part of the family. I got a little emotional because it made me realize just how lucky I was. I will never forget it.New Years was also amazing. The whole family stayed at a beach called Cabo Frio (very close to Rio) for a week. It was so beautiful and everyday was perfect weather! The water was so blue and clear. We went to the beach every day and stayed all day. On one of the days, we decided to take a day trip to Rio. I got to see the awesome beaches, the Statue of Jesus Christ, the soccer stadium, and many other cool things. It was definitely a day I won't forget. On New Years Eve we had a party with the family! It was so much fun. And when the clock struck twelve, we watched an absolutely amazing fireworks show on the beach. It lasted for about thirty minutes and it was definitely the best one I have ever seen.It took awhile to come back from Cabo Frio. It is about six hours away and we made a lot of stops on the way. It's funny because it seems like I have some family connection in every city we pass. I feel like I have about 15 aunts and 30 cousins! And I am finally back in Belo Horizonte!

The Financial Aid Office at CSULB is your main resource for questions related to paying for your education. We oversee the awarding and distribution of loans, grants, work-study funds, and coordination with other aid – such as scholarships.
The types of financial aid available to students pursuing a graduate degree are very specific and different from undergraduate or credential aid types. Students who are pursuing a second Master's or second Doctoral Degree are only eligible for federal loan funds or for private education loans.
Scholarships are available to FAFSA and DREAM Applicants.
Scholarships are considered gift-aid: They don't need to be repaid! There are thousands of them, offered by schools, employers, individuals, private companies, nonprofits, communities, religious groups, and professional and social organizations.
A scholarship might cover the entire cost of your tuition, or it might be a one-time award of a few hundred dollars. Either way, scholarships are worth applying for as they can help you cover your educational costs, and reduce your dependence on loans.
The Scholarships page is your resource for information on a variety of CSULB and outside scholarship opportunities.
Federal TEACH Grants
Federal TEACH Grants are available only to FAFSA Applicants.
Federal Teacher Education Educational Opportunity Grants (TEACH) The TEACH Grant Program provides grants of up to $4,000 a year to students who intend to teach full time in a high-need field at a public or private elementary or secondary school that the U.S. Department of Education has designated as having a high concentration of students from low-income families. The Grant is available for selected graduate degree programs, and requires the recipient to agree to fulfill certain teaching obligations – or risk having the grant converted to an unsubsidized loan.
At CSULB, the following graduate degree programs have been determined to be eligible for the TEACH Grant (in conjunction with the College of Education):
- Curriculum and Instruction
- Dual Language Development
- Early Childhood Education
- Educational Technology and Media Leadership
- Mathematics Education
- Social and Cultural Analysis of Education
- Science Education
- Special Education
Eligibility for the TEACH Grant will be determined by CSULB, using guidelines established by the U.S. Department of Education.
CSULB Grants
CSULB Grants are available to FAFSA or DREAM Applicants.
CSULB Grants are available only to California residents. Eligibility is determined by the FAFSA or DREAM Application – including meeting the Priority Filing deadline. Grants currently available for Graduate Students from CSULB include:
State University Grant (SUG):
The State University Grant is available only for your initial Master's Degree. The State University Grant (SUG) is awarded by CSULB to California Residents who have an eligible EFC (Expected Family Contribution). Since funds are limited, you must apply by the March 2 priority deadline to be considered for a SUG award..
SUG awards pay the "State Tuition Fee," and are offered based on full-time enrollment.
Please note that if you are enrolled half-time (4 units), your SUG award will be adjusted to reflect your actual State Tuition Fee charge.
Students who are already receiving a financial aid award designated to pay the tuition fee (Scholarship, tuition/fee waivers, vocational rehabilitation, etc.) are not eligible to receive a SUG.
NOTE: EdD Students & DPT Students: Students enrolled in the DPT program and the EdD program are not eligible to receive funding through the State University Grant (SUG), as the "State Tuition Fee" (SUF) is not assessed to students in these programs (SUG only gets applied towards the State Tuition Fee). Please review the Degree Program Specific Grants for information on available grants for these two programs.
Degree Program Specific Grants
Degree Program Specific Grants are available to FAFSA Applicants and DREAM Applicants.
There are a few CSULB grant programs available for students who have been admitted to specific programs. Eligibility for these Degree Program Specific Grants is based on CSULB admission, program admission, CA residency, and financial need.
Graduate Business Fee Grant
Available to students in the following programs:
- Master of Business Administration (Does not include programs through CCPE)
- Master of Science in Accountancy
The Graduate Business Fee Grant assists eligible students in meeting the cost of the Graduate Professional Fee assessed by California State University professional business graduate programs. The per-unit fee ($254/unit) is charged for required courses taken by graduate students enrolled in fee-authorized State-Supported Professional Business Graduate Programs (MBA – Master of Business Administration).
Doctor of Physical Therapy Grant (DPT Grant)
Available to students in the following programs:
- Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT Program)
The CSU Doctor of Physical Therapy Grant program was established in July 2011 in the interest of equity to students enrolled in the DPT program, as these students are not eligible for SUG funding. The DPT Grant provides students enrolled in the DPT program access to grant funding similar to that of all other CSU students who demonstrate financial need (based on the FAFSA or DREAM application).
Education Doctorate Grant (EdD Grant)
Available to students in the following programs:
- Education Doctorate (EdD Program)
The Education Doctorate Grant program was established in 2007 in the interest of equity to students enrolled in the EdD program, as these students are not eligible for SUG funding. The EdD Grant provides students enrolled in the EdD program access to grant funding similar to that of all other CSU students who demonstrate financial need (based on the FAFSA or DREAM application). Awarding of the EdD Grant occurs at the end of the academic year and awards are applied retroactively.
Federal Student Loans
Federal Student Loans are available only to FAFSA Applicants.
Low interest Federal Student Loans are offered as part of financial aid awards. Graduate Students are eligible for unsubsidized federal loans.
The Federal Direct Unsubsidized Loan is a government insured, low interest loan for eligible graduate students. If you borrow an Unsubsidized Loan, you are responsible for paying the interest from the time the unsubsidized loan is disbursed until it's paid in full.
You have the option of paying the interest on your loan or deferring it while in college. If you choose to defer the interest, it will be capitalized when you enter repayment (which means the outstanding interest is added to the principal amount you borrowed).
For current interest rate and origination fee information please visit the Federal Student Aid Website.
The Graduate PLUS Loan is an additional loan available for those graduate students who need additional funds (beyond the Unsubsidized Loan), to cover their remaining education costs. Unlike the Unsubsidized Loan, PLUS Loans require credit approval.
To Apply:
Graduate PLUS Loans are not included in the initial Financial Aid Award package. The loan is not added to the award package until the request has been processed and CSULB receives notification that you have been credit approved. To apply please visit Student Loans.gov; step-by-step instructions are provided in the Graduate PLUS Instruction (PDF).
For current interest rate and origination fee information please visit the Federal Student Aid Website
Federal Work-Study
Students are encouraged to find jobs whose wages can cover indirect expenses that occur each term such as textbooks and laundry.
Federal Work-Study (Available to FAFSA Applicants only)
Federal Work-Study (FWS) is a federally funded program that provides employment opportunities to students with the highest financial need. The amount you may earn will be listed on your award summary. The maximum FWS award is currently $3,500 per academic year. A FWS award does not guarantee placement in an actual position.
Work experience is not required to secure a FWS position. The money earned is yours to use for out-of-pocket expenses, such as travel, books, and personal care items. CSULB students typically work 10-12 hours per week. Work-study funds do not reduce your bill with the university.
Student Employment & Other Options
Some students find jobs that are not part of the Federal Work-Study program. A part-time job can be a great experience even if you are not eligible for Federal Work-Study positions.

Overlooking Auckland's beautiful Victoria Park, the Front Yards can provide your small – medium event with that intimate yet relaxed kiwi atmosphere.
The Front Yards are ideal spaces for after-work drinks, intimate PR or launch events and small birthday parties. Your guests will enjoy relaxing in a wide open area, while still retaining the benefits of being in a self-contained section, protected by the encompassing trees.

Custom featured/branded walls are available to print, both floral or as a logo backdrop for photos. We can also produce other custom signs for sponsored takeovers and full lighting / projector systems are available.
Together the Front Yards can accommodate 55 for a cocktail setup or 30 seated and is often booked with the back courtyards.
As with all our available venue sections for hire, we have live bands, legendary DJs, fire-shows, canapés / catering, and other entertainment ready to plug into your event.
Apart from hosting corporates events and large group functions, you may also enjoy the Front Yards during lunchtime and afterwork sessions as a bar and eatery. Get in touch today to find out more or use our event cost calculator tool to get costings on your bespoke event.

Funny how things turn out. I was just reading this the other day and I was wondering how it will feel like to be "hurling your guts out" in the middle of the night. Don't get me wrong, I am not focusing on the wrong things (of his article) but since I know Dave to be an adventurous and nice guy in general, I wasn't really suprised with his Peru trip. While Dave and I love chess with a passion that few can understand, I don't see myself doing anything similar given my current obsession with training and playing.
What I didn't expect is that I would be caught with a horrendous bug in my tummy just 2 days before I travel to Shen Zhen with the Uni students and would end up experiencing the same thing for 8 hours. In the end, I dragged myself to the nearest 24 hr clinic (puking on a batch of grass along the way back), took a jab, and has been washing down pill after pill ever since.
I hope I do not embarrass myself by retching while checking in on Sunday, in front of 500 other Uni students no less!

School milestones
Three schools responded to The Catholic Spirit's query of schools celebrating milestone years in 2015: Immaculate Conception in Columbia Heights, Bethlehem Academy in Faribault and Holy Cross Catholic School in Webster.
Immaculate Conception School,
Columbia Heights: 75
The preK-8 school opened in 1939 and graduated its first eighth-grade class in 1940.
To commemorate its milestone, it hosted an October alumni gathering and is planning an all-class reunion March 21.
Former Immaculate Conception teacher, Franciscan Sister Ruth Margaret Peterson, 84, was in its fourth grade the year it opened. She recalled that the Sisters of St. Francis of Sylvania, Ohio, the founding congregation, had to make due at first with an unfinished school building and no convent, living in classrooms.
She joined the community at age 24 and returned to teach from 1986 to 1996. She now works in the parish's faith formation department, and describes her homecoming as God bringing her "full circle."
Rochester Franciscan Sisters also taught at the school.
Bethlehem Academy, Faribault: 150
At the request of St. Paul Archbishop Thomas Grace, himself a Dominican, five Sinsinawa Dominican sisters founded Bethlehem Academy in Faribault in 1865. The school (grades 7-12) is celebrating through July 2016, with an all-school reunion Aug. 7-9.
According to school lore, the sisters and their students were beneficiaries of an undocumented miracle attributed to St. Joseph, the school's patron. They had run out of firewood during a harsh winter and were praying for help when a stranger arrived with wood. After stacking it, he was never heard from again, and no benefactor ever mentioned the gift.
Holy Cross Catholic School,
Webster: 10
Holy Cross Catholic School in Webster is planning an all-school reunion in October to commemorate
10 years in its school building.
Parish schools at Immaculate Conception in Lonsdale, St. Nicholas in New Market and Most Holy Trinity in Veseli consolidated in 1969 as LNMV Area Catholic Schools but continued to use all three buildings. In 2005, the preK-8 school changed its name to Holy Cross Catholic School and opened a new building.

The Olympics is in full swing. Michael Phelps has already won basically all the medals, and more importantly, and more impressive really, Katie Ledecky is the new face of Olympic swimming, setting multiple world records in only her second Olympic appearance. Usain Bolt just retained his title as the fastest man on the planet, and he did so with a smile. While running and swimming are certainly impressive, I wonder what other types of events could be incorporated if the Olympics decided to expand.
With that, here are the top 5 events that should be in the Olympics.
Crocodile hunting –
Now, what this actually is… I don't really know. I've always like the sound of a crocodile hunter, it's to no one's surprise that I've seen Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles more than a few times. I'd imagine this event is some amount of croc wrestling/capturing. Sure the Aussie's have a leg up but oh well, the rest of the world can adapt.
Professional Wrestling –
Let's be real. Olympic wrestling is great, but we can do better. I've always stated that every Olympic event would be better with a little pyro and some promo videos. A little showmanship can go a long way. Plus, who doesn't want to see John Cena at the top of a podium, with his tiny "Hustle.Loyalty.Respect" towel hanging between his over large fingers.
Tire changing –
Look, changing a tire isn't the most difficult thing in the world, but doing it a record speeds, that's something I could get behind. A few speed trials followed by a final heat of the best of the best seeing who tight those nuts fast. Move over synchronized diving.
Hot dog eating contest –
Frankly, it's a travesty that this isn't already an Olympic event. It's a competition that already has some clout and a sizeable following, it's international, and it's a physical feat we all wish we could do. That checks all the boxes for me. Personally, I look forward to seeing Joey Chestnut on the podium as the Star Spangled Banner plays.
#1 –
Last but not least, and the most recent innovation in the world of sports. eSports have basically taken over the world. Whether it be CSGO, COD, DOTA, LOL, MTG, or Hearthstone (none of these acronyms I actually understand), the audience is there and it's time we give these gamers the proper respect!

From my experience, I have found two things to ALWAYS be necessary:
1.) Security
2.) Maintenance
We will always need security. It will always be an issue.
Our systems need to be maintained, and as long as we have them, that will be the case.
Hope this helps!

PROTEX is an electrical safety component for inverters and generators, available from Protectelec , that protects both the dc input and the ac output.
It is one of the fastest electrical safety devices, operating in an average of 6 milliamps and 10 milliseconds, much faster than the ordinary household safety switch can.
It is so quick it provides electrical safety protection to the appliances and tools connected to the inverter or generator.
Protex is a small component that is manufactured directly into the inverter or generator, providing electrical safety. Simply turn the inverter on and the electrical safeguard begins working, no stake or earth connection needed.
Protex is approved to Australian Standards and will soon be providing electrical protection in other electrical products.
See the range of electrical safety protected inverters and generators and catch a live demonstration of Protex on stand L46 at The Safety Show, Tuesday 17th - Thursday 19th October 2006, Sydney Showgrounds, Sydney Olympic Park.

Meet Avery Broussard, the last in a line of once-substantial land owners whose weakness for alcohol lands him in prison- J.P. Winfield, a dirt-poor singer who makes it to the top of hillbilly music only to be destroyed by a drug addiction- and Toussaint Boudreaux, a black longshoreman who is set up for a crime he did not commit. What brings them together, and how they must struggle to escape the bondage that links them makes for a tale of atmosphere and suspense that is vintage Burke.Burkes debut novel was published when the now-bestselling author was in his twenties, and yet contains all the rich storytelling elements readers have come to expect.

I've always been a big fan of the Beastie Boys. There just aren't as many trios of white rap-rockers from Brooklyn these days. Anywho, I think the world should check out their new music video. Pretty much, Elijah Wood, Danny "Kenny Fucking Powers" McBride and Seth Rogen play Adrock, Mike D and MCA in this music video, which is supposed to take place following the infamous "Fight For Your Right" party music video. There are many, many cameos from celebrities in this bad boy, including Will Ferrel, John C. Reily, Kristen Dunst, Rainn Wilson, Karen from the Office, Sam the bartender from Cheers, Steve Buscemi, some Saturday Night Live people, Jack Black and more. Supposedly, there is a full 30 minute long video focusing on what happened after the party which should be awesome as well. So do yourself a favor and check this out, cause it'll be worth it.
I'll be taking a break from blogging for the next few weeks due to finals and whatnot, but whatever I'll be back soon. As always, keep the faith. Go Bruins.
