Step up and help create a more inclusive world for children growing up on the autism spectrum - so they don't get left behind
Despite the growing number of children on the autism spectrum, many of their peers are still not familiar with what autism is and what kind of support they can and should provide their friends.
Lack of understanding means many children on the spectrum struggle to make and keep friend and are left out of social activities – leading to feelings of exclusion and isolation.
At Aspect, our goal is to create a world where no-one on the autism spectrum is left behind. But we can't do that without the support of everyone in the community. For children on the spectrum to meaningfully participate in the world around them, there needs to be change in the classroom.
Walk for autism is an easy, fun and rewarding way for your students to learn about autism, get active and create positive change for children on the spectrum.
Because it is a virtual event, you and your students can decide the course, location and time you want to walk during the 8 day event. Challenge each other to walk 10,000 steps before and after school, during recess and lunch breaks.
Get the entire School involved or break into Staff, Year or Class Teams and challenge each other to raise as much as possible to support children on the autism spectrum.
World Autism Awareness Day
If an 8 day event is just that too much to organise, why not hold a one day event? World Autism Awareness Day falls on Tuesday 2 April 2019 so is the perfect day to step up and support people on the spectrum.
Event Ideas
Mufti Day
Invite your students to Go Colourful for autism and sell colourful jelly or cupcakes in the canteen and ask for a small donation.
Set up a fun course around the oval and challenge your students to complete it as many times as possible.
Games Day
Set-up a games day where each classroom can get involved and play!
Autism-friendly Tips
To help kick-start your Walk for autism, download our Tips for Autism-friendly and Inclusive Interactions sheet and share with your students. These have been developed in partnership with people on the autism spectrum so we can all play an active role in creating a more inclusive world.
Taking part is easy
Once you have decided how you are going to take part in Walk for autism, follow the steps below:
- Decide how you want to split your Teams: School Team, Staff Team, Year Team or Class Team?
- Nominate a Team Leader(s) to create the Team(s)
- Decide who will be in each team
- Invite participants to set-up their personal fundraising page and join their team.
- Set Team fundraising goals
- Get everyone together and brainstorm ideas on how to smash your step and fundraising goals
Why your school or class should get involved?
Autism is a lifelong condition. An estimated 1 in every 70 people in Australia is on the autism spectrum. Along with their family members, this means autism is a part of daily life for over a million Australians It is likely that one or more of your students are dealing with the everyday challenges that an autism diagnosis brings.
By taking part in Walk for autism, you can create an opportunity to discuss autism, educate your students and provide tips on how they can better support their classmates and friends who are on the spectrum.

Nuclear power vs. global warming vs. the environment: Whether civilization survives
Frank Warner notes that China is preparing to build up nuclear power production and that in many ways the environment would benefit from additional nuclear power and decreased reliance of fossil-fueled power plants.
I've never understood why we don't have significantly more (like, say, ten times as much) nuclear power production in the US. I mean, I know why. But why have those arguments carried the day?
The biggest downside, of course, is the potential for errors that include mushroom clouds. While I'm all for de-regulating the electricity MARKET, I'm not so gung-ho about de-regulating safety at power plants. And this goes double (triple?) at nuclear power plants.
Frank writes
France gets about 78 percent of its electricity from nuclear plants. France also has been keen on demanding all other industrialized nations cut back on burning fossil fuels. Here's why, I guess. While every other free nation was freezing nuclear power levels, the French were busy replacing coal and oil with the atom.
This is another thing about our lack of nuclear power production that's always mystified me. So many liberal-types are constantly trying to make the US into Europe but they don't want anything to do with nuclear power.

This March, a new pregnancy app developed by Estonian midwives became available. The head of midwifery at the Women's Clinic of the East Tallinn Central Hospital, Vivian Arusaar said the idea for the mobile app was inspired by pregnant women who were using various apps in languages other than Estonian. Unfortunately, the information in foreign apps was often incompatible with the Estonian healthcare system and pregnancy monitoring plans.
Vivian Arusaar and Silja Staalfeldt-Rahumägi, midwives at the East Tallinn Central Hospital women's clinic and the originators of the app idea, said that the flow of information about pregnancy and for expecting mothers is high. As such, it can be difficult for women to filter out the essential information, as some false information have been known to circulate even in most reputable forums.
"Actually, pregnant women at our clinic have been using various foreign originated apps, either in English or Russian for a long time, but these are incompatible with our healthcare system and our consensus-based pregnancy monitoring plan," said Staalfeldt-Rahumägi.
Arusaar added that midwives were often asked questions about tests and procedures that are not performed in Estonia. Staalfeldt-Rahumägi said there is a great deal of information that midwives look to give pregnant women at appointments, such as the right time to start with parent coaching. Patients don't necessarily remember such things from appointments and thus the information could be somewhere for reference. In addition, there was interest from the women themselves, whether there were any Esto-nian-language apps, and that led to the idea to develop the app.
Arusaar said that the Estonian Health Tech Cluster played a role in the decision of creating the app. Namely, the cluster was consulted and it was confirmed that there is market demand for such an application and it should be pursued. Thus, the process received a strong push from the cluster. Arusaar said that above all, they try to refer people to the right sources, such as the Riigi Teataja or a website of any state institution that releases reliable high-quality information on the subject. Since pregnant women in this day and age love to take notes and compare their pregnancies, they want the information to be handy at any time – and the app provides that opportunity. Information can be shared with girlfriends and if there are any questions at the appointment, the notes can be immediately viewed on the app.
Since pregnant women in this day and age love to take notes and compare their pregnancies, they want the information to be handy at any time – and the app provides that opportunity.
"For example, the app provides a long list of typical complaints and details on the reason for the complaint. It provides recommendations for alleviating the complaints and can also give an indication about when the situation is a medical emergency," said Staalfeldt-Rahumägi. Arusaar added that of course the app provides standard information as well, such as a pregnancy calendar with information on what takes place during each stage of the pregnancy as the foetus develops.
The greatest benefit for pregnant women in Estonia, according to Arusaar, was the fact that an Estonian-developed app supports pregnancy monitoring and takes into account developments in the Estonian healthcare system and legislation. Naturally, the information on the period of the maternity leave, compensations and the like have all been adapted to the Estonian environment.
Staalfeldt-Rahumägi noted that it was worth mentioning that the app provides close to 20 automated reminders in different phases of pregnancy, alerting the expectant mother to what procedures should be performed, such as an ultrasound during the first trimester and reminding the patient to inform the midwife if it has not been performed. Another reminder concerns the need for notifying the employer about the maternity leave. These notifications are sent out automatically at certain stages in the pregnancy.
"It is not at all exceptional for the woman to call her midwife and ask her to calculate when she should go on maternity leave and then the midwife does so. Now the woman herself can easily make the necessary calculations," said the midwife.
Arusaar also noted that the actual tar-get group for the app extends beyond pregnant women and includes those who are still planning their pregnancy. "The app allows us to determine the expected fertile window," she says, but warns that this is not a reliable contraceptive method and that women should choose other, more reliable ways of birth control.
Arusaar said the development of the app was based on teamwork. A team of four East Tallinn Central Hospital employees worked on the development (two midwives and two IT-specialists) but of course various phases needed more specialists to cooperate. For example, a lawyer, a data security manager and various doctors provided advice and put in hours of work to make sure everything was top-notch.
"The newly developed app will definitely reduce physician visits as it is a source of good-quality information and can help to allay a patient concerns. It is possible to find false, even life-threatening advice on search engines, but everything in our app is verified and reliable. We hope that patients will take more responsibility for their health from here on," said Staalfeldt-Rahumägi.
Both, Arusaar and Staalfeldt-Rahumägi confirmed that the app is like a continuous process that will never be fully finished. As time goes on, new features will be added.
The pregnancy monitoring app is available in Estonian and Russian and meant for use in the Republic of Estonia. The app is free of charge and can be found from app stores by searching for "Rasedus" (pregnancy) for Android and iOS.

The greatest key to a healthy referral-generating relationships with someone in your network is staying up-to-date on the latest with their business and their core services, and vice versa. If you want to keep relationships strong and know the best referrals to share with your network, having regular One-to-One meetings is paramount.
Perhaps more important than actually having the One-to-Ones, though, is ensuring that you are using time wisely to best keep your business top of mind for connections and have the best One-to-One possible. From timing and location to the actual conversation, check out these suggestions for making your One-to-One count.
- Schedule your One-to-One at a time that will not leave you or your partner stressed. Where possible, always schedule One-to-Ones at a time when you know you will be on time and won't have to rush to get to a following meeting. Nothing can be more distracting during an impactful conversation than you or your connection thinking about how long it will take to get to your next appointment, and stressing about being late. When many people plan meetings, they factor in the time it will take them to get there, but rarely buffer time after.
- Meet somewhere that won't be distracting or is likely to cause interruptions. It is easy to plan to meet at a restaurant for lunch. While convenient to do so, this may not be the best plan. How many interruptions can you expect at a restaurant, with ordering, drink refills and paying the tab? And, to top it off, the most convenient time to meet for lunch is during peak lunch hour – consider how the hustle and bustle of a busy restaurant at lunch may make it difficult to hear your connection, or impact how well they can hear you.
- Can you go to them? An easy way to make sure you are getting the most information about your partner's business is to meet them at their office. This is somewhere they are comfortable, is extremely convenient for them, and keeps their business top-of-mind to help them get as specific as possible when sharing about their services.
- You have two ears and one mouth – use them proportionally. Your primary goal during a One-to-One is to learn what is new and upcoming with your connection's business. This means putting their business first, asking questions, listening and absorbing what they say. Take notes, and if you think of a potential referral for them but are unsure, ask. This is your opportunity to learn how to best help them and invest in the relationship.
- If your connection is looking for ways to refer you to the others in their network, share specific services you offer and the specific type of referral you are looking for. Asking for a married person with an anniversary coming up is going to get your floral business more bouquet referrals than asking for anyone who would be interested in ordering flowers.
- Follow up with a sincere thank you, and maybe a referral. You should always follow up a One-to-One with a thank you, share what was a key takeaway for you, and if you're able, a referral. In general, you want to follow up within 24 hours, but if you can provide a referral in the next 3 to 5 days, you'll truly set yourself apart and show your connection that their time spent with you paid off.
- Schedule another One-to-One. Meeting once is not enough for a lasting referral-generating relationship. You want to regularly meet so that you can continue learning how their business is evolving, so your partner can learn more about you and your business, and so you both can continue building trust in one-another. Optimal frequency for most relationships tends to be once every financial quarter, but some relationships in their early stages may require more.

AbstractObjective: To determine the prevalence of smoking experimentation among adolescents with asthma or allergic rhinitis. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study involving adolescent students (13-14 years of age) in the city of Belo Horizonte, Brazil. The participants completed the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood questionnaires, both of which have been validated for use in Brazil. We calculated the prevalence of smoking experimentation in the sample as a whole, among the students with asthma symptoms, and among the students with allergic rhinitis symptoms, as well as in subgroups according to gender and age at smoking experimentation. Results: The sample comprised 3,325 adolescent students. No statistically significant differences were found regarding gender or age. In the sample as a whole, the prevalence of smoking experimentation was 9.6%. The mean age for smoking experimentation for the first time was 11.1 years of age (range, 5-14 years). Among the adolescents with asthma symptoms and among those with allergic rhinitis symptoms, the prevalence of self-reported smoking experimentation was 13.5% and 10.6%, respectively. Conclusions: The proportion of adolescents with symptoms of asthma or allergic rhinitis who reported smoking experimentation is a cause for concern, because there is strong evidence that active smoking is a risk factor for the occurrence and increased severity of allergic diseases.
ResumoObjetivo: Avaliar a prevalência da experimentação de cigarro em adolescentes com asma ou de rinite alérgica. Métodos: Estudo transversal envolvendo escolares com 13-14 anos de idade na cidade de Belo Horizonte (MG). Os escolares preencheram os questionários do Centers for Disease Control and Prevention e do International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood, ambos validados para uso no Brasil. Foram calculadas as prevalências de experimentação de cigarro na população geral estudada, naqueles com sintomas de asma ou de rinite alérgica e nos subgrupos em relação ao gênero e à idade da experimentação. Resultados: A amostra foi constituída por 3.325 adolescentes. Não houve diferenças estatisticamente significativas em relação ao gênero e a idade dos participantes. Na amostra geral, a prevalência da experimentação de cigarro foi de 9,6%. A média de idade da experimentação de cigarro pela primeira vez foi de 11,1 anos (variação, 5-14 anos). Nos adolescentes com sintomas de asma e de rinite alérgica, a prevalência autorrelatada de experimentação de cigarro foi de 13,5% e 10,6%, respectivamente. Conclusões: A proporção de adolescentes com asma ou rinite alérgica que relataram ter experimentado cigarro é preocupante, visto que há fortes evidências de que o tabagismo ativo é um fator de risco para a ocorrência e maior gravidade de doenças alérgicas.

Tobacco is a legal drug that is widely used throughout the world. According to the World Health Organization, tobacco kills up to half of its us-ers and will account for an estimated 8 million deaths annually by the year 2030; four out of five such deaths will occur in low- or middle-income countries. In addition, tobacco use is the major risk factor for noncommunicable diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and chronic lung disease.(1)
The majority (70-80%) of smokers take up the habit before adulthood, setting up smoking as a pediatric disease that should therefore should be included in programs of care for children and adolescents worldwide.(1,2) This is particularly important, because the late consequences of smoking on health are directly related to the duration and intensity of the habit.(3,4)
According to one study conducted in Brazil, smoking experimentation in childhood or adolescence increases the chance of smoking in adult-hood by 34 times, making it a predictor of that.(5) The National Student Health Study,(6) conducted in 2012, involved 109,104 9th-grade students (13-15 years of age) in various regions of Brazil, including all 26 state capitals and the Federal District of Brasília. The authors found that 19.6% of the students evaluated had already experimented with smoking
Passive and active smoking are both risk factors for asthma and allergic rhinitis in adolescents.(7-9) There are currently few data related to the long-term consequences of active smoking in childhood and adolescence, although there is some evidence suggesting that those consequences are substantial.(10,11) There have been few studies attempting to determine whether the prevalence of asthma symptoms is associated with smoking experimentation or active smoking in children and adolescents.(9)
Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of smoking experimentation in adolescents with symptoms of asthma or allergic rhinitis in the city of Belo Horizonte, Brazil.(12)
In this cross-sectional study, involving adolescent students, the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC) question-naire,(11) which assesses the prevalence and severity of symptoms of asthma and allergic rhinitis, was employed.
According to the ISAAC protocol, the study population should comprise at least 3,000 students between 13 and 14 years of age, randomly se-lected from at least 14 schools. The Belo Horizonte Municipal Department of Education provided a list of public schools, including the number of students per school and the school year. The drawing was made by school from a list randomly generated in the program Epi Info, version 6.04.
Study criteria
We included students from 13 to 14 years of age who were enrolled at the schools selected for the study and completed the ISAAC question-naire. The parents or legal guardians of all participating students gave written informed consent. All other students were excluded from the study.
We evaluated 13- and 14-year-olds because adolescents of those ages are most likely to still be attending school, resulting in a larger pool of students and facilitating data collection. The ISAAC questionnaire is a widely used tool that has been validated for use in epidemiological studies of asthma and allergic rhinitis.
To assess the prevalence of symptoms of asthma and allergic rhinitis among adolescents, we used the version of the ISAAC questionnaire that was translated to Portuguese and validated for use in Brazil by Solé et al.(13) The questions used in order to determine the prevalence of the symptoms of asthma and allergic rhinitis were, respectively, "Have you had wheezing or whistling in the chest in the past 12 months?" and "In the past 12 months, have you had a problem with sneezing, or a runny, or blocked nose when you did not have a cold or the flu?"
Students who reported having smoked at least once were classified as experimenters.(14) To analyze the prevalence of smoking experimenta-tion among the students, we used the questionnaire developed for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Global Youth Tobacco Sur-vey.(15) The two questions employed were "Have you ever tried or experimented with cigarette smoking, even one or two puffs?" and "How old were you when you first tried a cigarette?"
In the selected schools, the combined questionnaire was administered to all 8th- and 9th-grade students who were 13 or 14 years old. To avoid losses due to school absenteeism, we visited each school at least twice.
The questionnaire was completed by the students themselves, in the classroom, under the supervision of one of the researchers, who had been trained and instructed not to interfere with the process.
Statistical analysis
Data analysis was performed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences, version 14.0 for Windows (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). We calculated ratios for the prevalence of asthma symptoms, allergic rhinitis symptoms, and smoking experimentation in the general population in relation to that observed in the students who reported symptoms of asthma and those who reported symptoms of allergic rhinitis. We also calcu-lated the proportion of students with asthma symptoms and with allergic rhinitis symptoms in relation to gender and to age at smoking experi-mentation.
Ethical considerations
The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Minas Gerais and by the Belo Horizonte Municipal De-partment of Education. After the school board had given its authorization, we obtained written informed consent from the parents or legal guardi-ans of all participating students.
The sample comprised 3,325 students, of whom 1,825 (54.9%) were 13 years of age. Of the 3,325 students evaluated, 1,858 (56.1%) were fe-male (Table 1). Gender distribution did not differ between the 13-year-old and 14-year-old age groups.

Click and drag the preferred widget from toolbox and drop it in the available space of the design area.
The widget drop will happen only when you drop it in the appropriate region. In the above image, the blue border of the cell indicates that the targeted region is valid to drop.
The invalid region will be represented by a red border. This happens when you drop over a region where a widget or its part already exists.
You can resize the dropped widget by placing the focus over the widget and dragging the widget corner as follows.
Doing so will render the widget to the size you dragged. Here, the blue border indicates the occupied cell range of widget after resizing.

There's a theme emerging here in Las Vegas at the CTIA conference: Add mobile data capability to absolutely everything, including video cameras and the human body.
That quasi-science-fiction notion is being tossed around at the show by mainstream companies like Qualcomm and AT&T. At a lunch for the press and industry analysts on Thursday, AT&T discussed its new "emerging devices" division, which is working on wireless applications for consumer electronics devices, including game machines, electronic book readers and video and still cameras.
Glenn Lurie, president of the division, said that his group was talking to a whole range of device makers — from garage start-ups to billion-dollar companies — along with the major retailers. The business models for these devices are still developing, but Mr. Lurie said that, for example, camera owners might pay each time they send a video from the device over AT&T's network.
Pointedly, he suggested — but did not state outright — that AT&T plans to compete in the e-book market, helping competitors go head to head with Amazon's Kindle.
"There will be quite a few other people building these," he said.
Mr. Lurie said AT&T's interest was in creating incremental, profitable businesses through a variety of revenue streams. But there is a more fundamental concept here too: AT&T and its wireless brethren are trying to find new reasons to keep people connected, at more times and using more minutes or data network capacity, particularly as growth has slowed for wireless providers and handset makers.
Qualcomm, the San Diego-based phone chip maker, is also trying to expand the wireless market — into health care. On Monday, the company announced that it was sponsoring a health care institute in San Diego that would develop wireless applications in the field. For instance, the company has talked about using wirelessly connected patches that a person would wear. These would measure vital signs and send the results to a nearby device that could then send them over the network to health care providers.
Paul Jacobs, the chairman and chief executive of Qualcomm, said in an interview that he could imagine such technology monitoring someone's heart or blood sugar. The advantage, Mr. Jacobs said, is that patients could be on the go while being monitored, rather than incurring hospital or inpatient costs. Also, he said, the wireless technology could allow for constant monitoring (while a heart patient is living daily life, for example) rather than periodic in-person spot checks.
Mr. Jacobs said the business could be good for Qualcomm as a wireless provider, but also for a health care system that he said is sorely broken.

Kuroiro was kinda careless going 1v4 but I guess others are pretty close. Hakagure actually counters him by illumimating herself but there was no way that Kuroiro knew that.
Any bets whos gonna win this one and with what numbers? For me this is kinda hard since Manga is too bizzare for me to even guess his quirk and Kinoko has a few possibilities what she could do. So my bet is B wins this one but only with 1 survivor, no idea who.
Posted 13 September 2018 - 02:07 PM
You mean Tokoyami, yeah he is cool.
Kinda excited for the bird guy he's definitely like the 4th stringeat in the class. Cant say i really care for anyone in class B
Though I think he maybe the fifth or sixth strongest in class 1B behind Bakugou, Shouto, Deku and maybe Kirishima and possibly Iida.
I personally cannot wait for him to say "Quote the raven never more." at some point in this series.
Besides if Tokoyami's hero gig doesn't pan out for him, he has probably got a back up job of being a NFL mascot in Baltimore. XP
Posted 13 September 2018 - 07:06 PM
I like that the fights are getting fleshed out.
I'm hyped for Black Fallen Angel! Toko and Kuo gonna make one heck of a duo down the road.
This fight will be determined by whoever can outdo the other in terms of strategy and tactics between Momo and Kendo. Momo gonna have the better overall plan but Kendo gonna make up for it by making good decisions in the moment.
I also liked Froppy's, "I was basically the key to my team's success and I performed fairly well overall, but I could have been smoother" lol

Yeah it's a great Chapüter and I love to see more from my boy Tokoyami <3
He is so cool I am excited for his new Move! Hawks + Tokoyami is just perfect I hope we will get a flashback to his internshi there at some point ^^ Or a flashback like Kirishimas we got in the Yakuza Arc.

Wow, this fight is shaping up to look good I didn't expect that.
Looking forward to see how Kendo and Yaoyorozu will pit their minds against each other. I love both of them as I think they're great examples of strong female leads so really excited to see Kendo's full capabilities with her great leadership skills and whether Yaoyorozu's decision making skills have improved (also, kinda excited to see if we'll get any compliments from Todoroki to Momo after the fight )
Also interested in Tokoyami's Black Fallen Angel techniques, although I think it's weird that he didn't already assume that the Kuro dude would use Tokoyami's dark shadow against him considering this dude's quirk is literally being able to use things that are black, lol. These lines were sooooo edgelord :
Tokoyami: "So, you too understand the majesty of the abyss."
Kuroiro: "Hehe... I live in darkness."
Could care less about invisible girl and laser dude.

Really exciting set up for the 2nd battle. So we finally got to see what this Shihai's quirk is from Class B. His design always interested me so I was curious what his quirk would be. I like how he is kind of a natural counter to Tokoyami's shadow quirk and you can tell the author put a lot of thought into how to set up these matches. Also I like how before the fight the two of them bonded a bit from their love of "darkness", lol.
Also I like how Momo and Kendou will be facing off in this round and given Kendou's challenge they will probably have a detailed fight too. Outside of the mushroom girl from Class B and Aoyama from A this round feels like a lot of similar characters facing off. Kendou and Momo being the two beauties connected to their internship together, Shihai and Tokoyami both being related to darkness and shadows, and then Hagakure and Manga from B having the strangest quirks in one being invisible and the other having a head that is made up of manga panels, haha. I am really interested in seeing what his quirk does exactly.

The Judicial System Works
We, as a country, rely on and trust in the judicial system to convict criminals. Having said that, we must also then rely on and trust that same system to acquit people. That is how the system works. Could there be some flaws? Sure. Innocent people will sometimes be convicted and guilty people will sometimes go free. That is the price to pay. Like it or not, once a case is presented before a judge and jury, lawyers have had their say, and jurors have deliberated and a decision is reached...that is it. The system did its job.
If you have a problem with how this system works, there are many avenues you can take in order to try and change it. You can write congressmen, senators, and governors. You can lobby in Washington. You can hold protests. These are things you are allowed and encouraged to do in this country and what this country is about. Everyone is allowed to do so, no one is prevented from it. It is one of the things that make this nation great. These things don't require you to be a certain race, color or creed.
What I cannot understand, is why people think it is ok to beat up random strangers because they didn't like the outcome of a trial. Or why it is ok to stalk or wish harm on someone that was put on trial and deemed not guilty. I understand being upset, I can see being mad...but, to stoop below the level of that persons actions in order to "prove a point" or "provide justice" is the epitome of ignorance and hate. This case was tried in a court, facts were presented and a jury found a man not guilty. Case closed. Yet, there are people that are holding on to emotions, to hate and instead of moving on and trying to build us up as a whole nation. There are those that listened purely to media and their views of what happened that were presented in a way to draw attention, emotion and fuel hate. There are those that won't look past that emotion and deal with reality.
Don't spend you time trying to live up to stereotypes, let's ditch those labels and live as a whole. Let's put the hate, the media, the hype and the emotions about it behind us and move forward together.
The system works and we need to trust in it. If we only follow what the media tells up to follow and only expect outcomes we want to happen and continue to let our emotions and media be our guide in life, we will never move forward and we will continue to remain stagnant and divided.
While I am on the subject: Zimmerman was not tried under the "Stand Your Ground" law, it was based solely on "self defence". Also, 911 dispatchers are NOT policemen. Therefore, it is not law that you must follow their orders.
SN: Shooting a gun into the air is illegal because the bullet WILL fall back down to Earth and could hit a random person, you are better off shooting an attacker directly in the chest as opposed to firing a warning shot.

text: Lawsuits take a long time as a result of they're so concerned in what's required for each side to prove its case. For instance, I not too long ago received a name from an AMEX consultant stating that a new coverage was in place for a restricted time allowing bank card accounts with balances over $25,000.00, and that had been in litigation, to be resolved for 20% of the face amount of the debt.\n\nRegardless of the extension given for the invention of malpractice, all circumstances are subject to a four yr limitation. Breach of a Contractual Obligation: Whereas at-will employment normally implies that there isn't a employment contract concerned, generally employees wish to state certain employment terms in a written contract.\n\nThere are many steps involved in a lawsuit. That is over eighty two,000 lawsuits per day and the quantity retains growing! After the plaintiff information his criticism, the defendant may file a flurry of motions that search to have the criticism stricken or dismissed so he need not reply.\n\nEach state in the US has its own personal damage laws. Thus, if the woman became pregnant 5 years later, she would not be able to file a medical malpractice lawsuit. In our nation, Staff compensation or Workmans comp is a state-mandated insurance coverage program that gives compensation to employees who are suffering job-related accidents and diseases.


text: In addition to the new music and artists featured in the picture above, I played a fusion classic, "Punk Jazz" from Weather Report's 1978 release, "Mr. Gone," an album that when it was released received a fairly scathing (and legendary) one-star review from Downbeat magazine--the center of gravity as far as jazz music was concerned in the 70s. I shared my thoughts about this review, its reception and rebuttal by Weather Report keyboardist, Joe Zawinul, and talked a bit about how the music review process has changed in the age of web publications and distributed/fan reviews. If you missed the live Alloy show this week you can always catch the all-music, 24/7 "Alloy" station. Thanks for listening!

They raise the action, snap strings, and look cheap. You could try them but you will render one set of strings useless because you won't be able to tie them around your bridge.
After you pay the return postage and buy a new set of strings, you will be out a few hours of time and short a couple of dollars.

We own quite large office where work over 20 people. It's hard to keep everyhing clean without the help of professionals, so we decided to all for Rainbow. They are always on time, cleaning like no one else, but also great advantage of this cleaning company is they do also janitorial services and building maintenance. It's really comfy if you don't have to hire 3 services to do all the things, that have to be done. Just call Ernest and ask if his crew can do the thing you are looking for. I bet they can 🙂

text: Share: Comments Print August 31, 2007 at 7:14 PM Signing off Posted by Jayda Evans Well, it's time to end this blog for the 2007 season and it's good timing because if I hear another announcer say (and I love you Doris Burke), "Officials are human, too," I'll … let's just say anyone calling themselves a "professional" can be critiqued. And I don't think most are trying to bash the officials. We all just want to see an improvement because it's starting to really distract us from the game. Anyway, Iziane Castro Marques was the most confident about the Storm's survival next summer "because of what [she] heard." So, I'm going to ride the Brazilian's optimism and look forward to blogging about the Storm again next summer. Until then, thanks so much for the support and enjoy the remainder of the postseason. I still believe Phoenix will win it all, but I'm not sure about Detroit. They don't look like the team they were during the regular season, losing Game 1 to Indiana tonight. Check The Seattle Times' Web site for the latest on the Storm. News to watch out for is the MVP award, the ownership's self-imposed arena deal deadline in October and WNBA collective-bargaining agreement news in January. There also should be announcements about expansion and a new Storm assistant coach. It'll be a busy offseason. So, thanks, again, it was really interesting. Take care. Comments

It's Just Winter
I walk along the exposed rocks of a winter river that is far to low, cold and clear. Runs that were once too swift and deep for my fly are now at a summer level and seem to spitefully grab ahold of my feathered creation to keep as their own.
The slate grey sky and bone chilling cold makes me anxious like I might be trapped in this place by some freakish accident forever. I am mindful that I have strayed above the normal waters of most anglers much like a wayward hatchery steelhead would and I double check to make sure my truck is parked where I left it. The fish are absent and with no apparent precipitation forthcoming I use this trek as an excuse to practice my Skagit style casting. The opposite shoulder technique that my friend John is so good at comes hard to me and I cop out on fishing the river left bank of the winter stream in favor of the double spey which I can do with some ease.
I know that winter is just the price we must pay for spring and summer as any patient angler knows but it seems like the grip that winter holds is relentless.I know it's just my longing for warmth that makes it seem so permanent. I know it's just winter and unremarkable from any winter past for me. With so much uncertainty in the world these days the people I meet on the stream bank have an anxious and worried look about them. I truly feel for those who have lost their homes and jobs because of the recession that has a stranglehold on us all....a cold winter seems to just make the anxiousness and worry more tangible.
The daylight is noticeably longer now however and with the advent of baseball's spring training the hope of spring and rising trout is more than just some whimsical notion by an old, broke down angler like me. It's the promise of spring that sustains me through these winter months.
I've seen pictures of the first March Browns of the season so I am hopeful.
The best part of the winter steelhead season is still ahead though and the torrential rains that will fill the river are sure to return and I will shrug my shoulder as to dismiss my silly winter rants.
Here is hoping that all of you are anticipating the end of winter as you oil your reels, clean your fly lines and tie more trout flies than you'll ever need.

Yesterday Betty & I visited our financial advisor to consider investments and cash flow requirements for our outlandish odyssey (or should that be overlandish odyssey — LOL). In our bricks & sticks home, we had a more stable cash flow, with more or less fixed amounts for mortgage, insurance, utilities, property taxes, etc. However, as we venture into the great unknown, there is a lot more uncertainty. What will it cost on the road?
As former U.S. Secretary of Defence, Donald Rumsfeld, famously noted: "There are known unknowns, and then there are unknown unknowns". While the Internet has been a great help in eliminating, or at least reducing, some of those unknowns, it has not yet removed all uncertainty.
We have established a U.S. funds account, ordered U.S. funds credit cards at our local bank, and have the required information to set up an account at a partnered U.S. bank, once we cross the border. While we can now somewhat control the exchange of U.S. and Canadian currency at more favourable rates, we don't yet have control over whether the Canadian dollar will rise or fall in relation to the U.S. greenback. If only we were the Governor of the Bank of Canada! LOL
Our motorhome is currently in for upgrades and servicing prior to our departure. But we don't know if the old (Georgie) Boy will last without major repairs down the road. Of course we know that new coaches are not necessarily trouble-free either, so we're OK sticking with the old Cruise Master for now.
We now have Canada-U.S. cell phone plans in place, so we know what it will cost to keep in touch with friends and relatives. But we do not know how much cellular data we are likely to use when free wifi isn't available for searching future points of interest.
We have calculated basic distances for each of our trips, estimating fuel costs based on gas price trends. But we do not know whether gas prices will spike or drop during our journeys. We also do not know how many side trips or spontaneous adventures we will take along the way that will add to our fuel costs.
We will be purchasing travel insurance for each portion of our adventure, and have roadside assistance plans in place. But we don't know if, when, and where our bodies or motorhome will break down, and whether it will be in proximity to a hospital – or tow truck – as the case may be.
We have an idea of campground costs on our route, and are excited to find that there are many cost-saving accommodation options. We now have an Escapees RVClub membership for campground discounts, a BoondockersWelcome.com membership for free overnight stays at private residences across North America, and an app showing all U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) property – similar to crown land in Canada – where dry camping is permitted. We will be taking out a Passport America membership as we begin our trip (our 6 month free discount coupon can only be redeemed in person), giving us further campground discounts. And maybe best of all is our Harvest Host membership, that allows us to stay for free at farms and wineries across the continent! Of course, we also have noted Walmart, Lowes, Cracker Barrel, Flying J, rest stop and casino locations that allow free overnight rv parking. But because this is a new endeavour, we don't yet know how often we will need to plug in, fill up, and dump our tanks. While we will have some control over accommodation costs, there is still a significant "unknown".
If we boondock more, we don't know at what point we should be investing in solar panels, inverters, and lithium-ion batteries to keep the juice flowing. Betty reminds me that when we camped in a tent, we didn't ever use electricity. The morning coffee and bacon & eggs were prepared over the campfire. Washing up – ourselves and the dishes -was also accomplished with water heated on the fire. Baked beans, tastey toast sandwiches and evening smores around the fire finished off the day. My only problem is, I can't remember where in that fire pit my iPhone was plugged in! LOL.
As we venture into the great beyond, these are some of our knowns and unknowns regarding the cost of our folly. I guess we will just have to remember that life is a priceless gift, and we may never be able to fully count the cost of our decisions – just do the best we can with the resources that have been entrusted to us for the road ahead.
As Roy Rogers used to sing: "Happy trails to you, until we meet again!"

One of my favorite Italy memories is of focaccia from a bakery at the far end of the beach in Monterosso, in the Cinque Terre. I've eaten their delicious olive oily breads with my friends, my mum and C. See, the thing to do is to get your bread (various toppings, sold by weight), a cold drink (limonata, perhaps?) and wander over to the beach or start the hike through the vineyards and olive groves by way of an old goat trail until you find a suitable spot to sit and eat your lunch. C.and I chose to eat here:
Lovely, no?
There is nothing quite like the focaccia from Monterosso. Drenched in olive oil and light and chewy at the same time, it's one of those things that you have to eat on location to fully understand it's perfection.
That being said, I've been trying to bake it myself. I think I've found my favorite recipe and am getting quite good at it. Last night I made olive and rosemary focaccia to go with the mackerel. It was pretty damn good. I do think that the secret is the excessive amount of olive oil. More! More than that! More than you think possible because it's never quite enough.
Perhaps I'll have to go back to try it again before I get it completely perfect.

To avoid duplicating efforts, we ask visitors not to suggest horses from those two jurisdictions. However, if we've missed a horse from there or anywhere, we would appreciate hearing about it (Suggest a Horse). While we, nor anyone, can list every fallen racehorse in history, we aim to be as thorough as possible.
We are especially interested in hearing from eyewitnesses (in or out of the horseracing industry) with information about an otherwise unreported incident. But, as always, every horse must be confirmed before posting, to preserve the integrity and accuracy of this historical document for the horses.

After the success of the first movie, Wreck-It Ralph, Disney's gaming gang are back for round two … and it has been worth the wait!
Set six years after the events of the first movie, we are, once again, treated to a gaming adventure like no other as Wreck-It Ralph (voiced by John C. Reilly) and Vanellope von Schweetz (voiced by the ever-hilarious Sarah Silverman) get up to all sorts of high jinks as they scramble to save Sugar Rush and enter what Vanellope calls the 'most beautiful miracle I've ever seen' – the internet!
Like everyone who goes online, the likable duo are looking for something – in this case, a new steering wheel controller for Vanellope's game Sugar Rush. When they succeed in finding a replacement wheel, they must then come up with the money to pay for it. This leads them to join a free-to-play racing game called Slaughter Race!
Unsurprisingly, Vanellope becomes hooked on the adrenaline rush from the racing and with one of its driver's named Shank, voiced by Gal Gadot (Marvel's Wonder Woman). This spells serious trouble for the Sugar Rush gang, however, as it looks like Vanellope might never return to her own game.
Needless to say, Wreck-It Ralph is the one left with the task of persuading Vanellope to leave the internet and return home.
Fans of the first movie will love Ralph Breaks the Internet … maybe even more than the first!

I saw the following on Facebook and it struck me like a bolt of lightening. My picture could be on top of that quote ~ I am that quote. Through the grace of God, my wounds are healed and that's why I'm involved in Rachel's Hope and Silent No More Awareness.
The words apply to anyone who has experienced physical, emotional or spiritual trauma. It is human nature to bury the pain ... a defense against re-experiencing it. Reaching out for help in dealing with past traumas removes the pain and anguish that has taken up so much valuable space in our souls ... making room for indescribable peace, serenity and joy.
"He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away."
Revelation 21:4
