Do you wonder where your family came from?
Are you the first generation to live where you live now?
Who was the first in your family to graduate from college, own their own home or immigrate to your country?
These questions (and so much more) can be answered by peeking into your genealogy.
When I started looking into my family history, I found out that one of my relatives died by falling off of a roof.
When the kids went to school that morning, they said goodbye to dad, who was working on the roof. Sometime during that day, he fell off the roof and died. That morning was the last time they saw their dad alive.
So sad and yet stories like this remind us how precious and fleeting life can be.
When you start doing your genealogy and filling in your family tree, you can learn so much about your ancestors and how they lived before you came along.
How do you get started with genealogy?
- Find out what your family already has recorded. Does your family have a family bible or book they keep records in? Do they have old pictures or stories you want to record? These family histories are a great place to start to fill in your family tree.
- Use ancestry.com. Ancestry.com is a great resource to use to find government and personal records of your family members. It is a paid service, but they have a free trial where you can get alot of your information in a short amount of time.
- Set a goal. What do you really want to learn about these people that came before you? Do you want to know where they came from? Do you want to know their education or their big life events? If you set a goal to (for instance) find out who was the first person to immigrate to America in your history, that can give you an idea of how far back you need to go to get there.
- Do your own research. Once you get the names and dates from other family members or online, your journey doesn't stop there. Can you find out about their daily lives? Were they rich or poor? Were they educated? Did they fight in a war or participate in government? These stories really bring these people to life, where you feel like you know them.
Who can you ask for help?
- Your oldest living relative– Do you have a grandmother or great grandmother you can ask about your family? Maybe you can ask her questions and audio or video record her answers for your children. Don't wait! You never know how long these people will be around, and when they are gone you will be glad you have this record. Don't know what to ask? Check out this website to get the ideas flowing: 30 Life Questions You Need To Ask Your Grandparents.
- The LDS Church– The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints has a wide variety of information about genealogy and they can help you find your ancestors for free, even if you aren't a member of their church. They have genealogy centers at many of their church buildings where people volunteer during the week to help do genealogy work. It is a great resource.
- Online groups and resources– Besides ancestry.com, there are other websites, facebook groups and other forums that can help you with your research. Even Google may help you find newspaper articles or other information on an ancestor. It really is amazing everything that we have at our finger tips these days.
What do you do with the information you find?
Now that you have the information, what do you do with it?
- Keep a written record for your family. Keep a physical and digital copy of your family history records, in case one is lost. Share these with your family members so that they are more likely to last.
- Make a visual record to make the names come to life. If you can find pictures of the people, that makes it even more real. Now of course this will be harder the farther back you go. But you should be able to find photos for several generations back anyway.
- Keep digging. You can always go back further or find out more information. You may uncover things that your current family members didn't even know about.
- Share it with your family. Family history can bring families together, so share what you have found with living relatives so they can enjoy the stories too.
Here are some ideas to make a visual display of your family:
Family Tree Wall Decal @ Amazon
Family Tree Chalkboard @ Your Home Based Mom
Family History Binder @ Do As I'm Doing
Family history is fun and can be addictive. With the internet, there is no end to the information you can find. If you tap into a famous or royal line, it is usually easier to go back further in time because records were scarce for common people "back in the day".
Once you find out about your family history, share it with other members of your family near and far. You may connect with relatives online that you didn't know existed until you started your research.
Genealogy can be something fun for you and sharing that information can be a great gift to those that come in later generations. So get out there and find out what you can about your family today!
How many generations back do you know about your family? Please let us know in the comments below. And if this post was helpful, please share. Thanks!

Feature: The Top Musical Revivals You won't Want To Miss
The West End has a few exciting new musicals premiering this year, with excitement of Waitress and Dear Evan Hansen to mention a few. But what about the humble revival? Well, 2019 promises to be a big year for revivals, with a hat trick from The Lord himself, but first...
Returning to the National Theatre after its hugely popular and critically acclaimed run, picking up Best Musical Revival at the Oliviers, Dominic Cooke's production has been mooted to be heading over the pond for a Broadway transfer...if the hopeful musical fans over there are to be believed. Let's hope that they do get to see it because this is a phenomenal production. And if you didn't get to catch it the first time around, don't be discouraged. Many of the original cast are returning (Tracie Bennett, Janie Dee and Peter Forbes are reprising their roles) with Joanna Riding, Gemma Sutton and Alexander Hanson joining the cast as Sally, Young Sally and Ben.
Follies will run at the National Theatre, Olivier Stage from the 12th of February to the 11th of May, 2019.
This isn't a production that pops up very often, but one worth seeing, especially in a venue as special as the ENO's home, the London Coliseum. It's a Broadway classic that welcomes back Hollywood star Kelsey Grammer, who obviously enjoyed his time in Big Fish The Musical at The Other Palace in Victoria last year and was praised for his performance in the show. Following on from its sell out run of Chess last year, it appears that the ENO are going to continue to draw in a different crowd from their usual patrons of opera lovers, although Lonny Price's production does straddle both lines with opera star Danielle de Neise stepping into Aldonza's shoes. And with tickets starting at £20, it's within reach of most budgets to see what promises to be a very popular addition to ENO's season.
Man of La Mancha will run at the London Coliseum from 26 April to 8 June 2019.
This is the production that just won't stop. Having originally opened in the summer of 2016 at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre, Timothy Sheader's production of Jesus Christ Superstar then went on to have a hugely successful tour in the United States before returning to its original home. Now, a transfer to the Barbican is on the cards and it gives you another fantastic opportunity to see Tom Scutt's sumptuous design, Drew McOnie's brilliant choreography and to hear on of the best rock musical scores brilliantly brought to life under the musical supervision of Tom Deering.
Jesus Christ Superstar lands at The Barbican Centre on July 4th and will play until August 24th.
They may share a name, but rarely would you associate these two West End wonder boys. A Lord Lloyd Webber show, but not as you've seen it, and an atypical choice for Jamie Lloyd to direct. A slight quiver of excitement always tends to greet any announcement of a new Jamie Lloyd production, and with the announcement that he will follow up the recent Pinter season in the West End with a new vision for ALW's Evita at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre, this was no different.
You can see Evita at this summer's season Open Air Theatre season from the 2nd of August through the 21st of September.
Get your three-note "Ah's" ready! A musical you have definitely seen in a local regional theatre, local state school gym or school gym is making its way back to the West End to celebrate its 50th Anniversary. What better venue to see this classic that the glorious stage of the London Palladium. But you're going to have to get your tickets early, as this is a strictly limited run. There have been no casting announcements yet, but with such a big anniversary at Lord Lloyd Webber's flagship theatre, it's bound to be a big success.
Catch Joseph and his coat from 27 June to 07 September 2019 at the London Palladium.

With the dry season upon us, I wanted to provide some safe, non-toxic options to nourish your skin and shine from the inside out. The cold weather can be very harsh on your skin, but so can most conventional beauty products—filled with chemicals, heavy metals and toxins that can only cause further damage, both to your skin and your health.
Here are a few of my favorites—and always, let's start with food!
Drink More Water
Yes, yes, we all probably need more water in our lives, especially if you have a habit of drinking a cup of coffee in the mornings like me! Staying hydrated is one of the best things you can do for your overall health and especially your skin!
Each morning I add a splash of lemon juice to my water, I have learned to love the taste and it actually instantly perks me up on sleepy mornings. This will help gently detox you as well.
In the afternoons, I love doing a sparkling mineral water with a splash of lime as a pick me up.
And yes, having a cute, re-fillable water bottle will make drinking your water that much more enjoyable. I have tried in vain countless water bottles that I didn't like, and sadly probably wasted ALOT of money, so just take my word that these suggestions are perfect!
- S'well 25 oz: this version pretty much goes everywhere with me.
- Swell 9 oz: Although a bit small, I love this option for stashing in a smaller bag.
- bkr Glass Water Bottle
*These options don't have wide mouth openings, so you won't spill water all over yourself in the car and they don't have a weird after taste like most re-fillable bottles do.
Eat More Healthy Fats
One of my all time favorite nutrition facts is that our cell membranes (think the wrapping paper around your cells) are made up of a phospholipid bi-layer—in simple terms, your cells are made up of fat!
So eating healthy fats, not only nourishes your cells, but it seriously nourishes your skin! Now, you can apply good quality oils to your skin, but nourishing from the inside out is equally important!
- Grass-Fed Butter
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Duck Fat
- Grass-Fed Browned Butter Ghee
- Unrefined Coconut Oil
- Avocado Oil
My Favorite Products to Nourish Your Skin
// Anyone who makes a Beautycounter purchase this month will be automatically entered to win either a Soothing Face Oil ($68 value) or Rejuvenating Eye Cream ($58 value) or the Limited Edition Nail Polish Set ($47 value). I will pick THREE random winners, one product for each person, on January 31. //
ALSO—for a limited time ONLY (until Jan 31 or while supplies last) Spend $200+ USD / $250+ CAD, receive a FREE Body Oil in Citrus Rosemary and a Hydrating Body Lotion in Citrus Mimosa ($97 US value / $119 CAN value).
Primally Pure's Rose and Mint Complexion Mist: Toner is an important and sometimes forgotten step—I actually spray this mist multiple times per day as a nice refresher and it really keeps your face hydrated. Toner also helps balance the pH levels of your skin and helps prepare your skin for the incoming oil or moisturizer!
Beautycounter's Face Oils: Raise a hand if you have ever been afraid of putting oil on your skin—this was me times a million. But here is the deal—your skin, especially your face craves oil, so much so that if you don't apply it, your skin will actually make more oil, leading to those not so fun breakouts.
Obsessed is an understatement when it comes to these face oils, especially the Balancing Face Oil as it is my personal favorite and has actually helped control minor breakouts and blemishes.
Beautycounter's Cleansing Balm: This cleansing balm is a miracle worker, because it cleanses your skin while at the same time hydrates and nourishes—so it is sort of like oil cleansing meets actual cleansing, which I love. This works great as a spot treatment for severe dry patches or as an overnight mask about once a week—my favorite way. Yes, a little goes a LONG way, do do not be dismayed by the price tag!
Beautcounter's Rejuvenating Day Cream: If you are a little older and wiser than me, I highly recommend the anti-aging line, Rejuvenating Day Cream. It is not too thick and will leave your skin nourished and a bit more firm (in a good way!!). I highly recommend adding a few drops of the oils listed above.
Primally Pure's Lip Balm: If you walk around my house or search through my bags you will find these lip balms stashed away everywhere—because gosh darn it is the greatest lip balm ever! Creamsicle is my favorite and I usually keep peppermint in my purse to act as a breath freshener and my hubby likes that one too. Also, keep in mind, some conventional chapstick contain chemicals and additives that actually make you more addicted to them—gross.
Beautycounter's Sugar Scrub: It is so important to exfoliate your skin with natural options like this sugar scrub, rather than chemical rich and abrasive substances. Exfoliating will help remove the dead skin so that the oils and moisturizers you do apply soak in and do their job more efficiently and leave your skin so soft!
Beautycounter's Body Butter: This is a heavy duty, lets-get-down-to-business sort of body lotion without leaving you feeling oily, because there is nothing that annoys me more than oily skin! I have a few friends who rave about this for their pregnant bellies and stretch marks, but can't speak from personal experience here clearly.
Primally Pure's Almond & Vanilla Body Butter: This is my go to hand lotion for night, because gosh darn does it do the trick for dry hands! It also smells amazing and you will dream of cupcakes as you wander off to sleep. I have on multiple occasions wanted to eat this stuff, don't worry I haven't!
Get out and soak up some fresh air and sunshine
This is much more difficult in the wintertime months, but so important! Our bodies and our skin need sunshine and Vitamin D to thrive, so take advantage of those sunny days! Being outside for 10-20 minutes without sunscreen is a good idea for maximum sun absorption.

For the fifth year running we worked with Club Peloton on its flagship Cycle to MIPIM ride, managing and implementing its PR activity.
Our brief each year is to launch the Cycle to MIPIM ride, to attract riders and sponsors for the event and to increase the profile of Club Peloton events in the media, specifically to property and cycling audiences.
Beyond the established Estates Gazette media partnership, we have successfully increased the amount of media coverage in the property and cycling press and in regional London and French publications. Coverage has been secured in City AM, City Matters, FT, Property Week, Property Mall, PezCycling News, MIPIM News, OPP Today, La Nouvelle Republique and Building Magazine.
To maximise the relationship wth the media partner, we produce a number of pieces of creative content, utilising influential riders and seeking interesting feature angles. We place a large emphasis on high quality imagery to ensure that the features stand out in print and online.
During the course of the year we manage a content feed on Twitter, engaging with riders, sponsors and supporters alike joining the conversation, and sharing tweets and images.
On the event itself we post daily updates on the Club Peloton website which are shared through social media channels.
On arrival in Cannes, amidst the champagne and celebrations, we manage a photocall of the finish on the Croisette, which is often attended by a high profile personality such as an Olympic athlete or pro cyclist and even, in the past, the Mayor of London Boris Johnson.
Throughout the year we work hard to build relationships with key sponsors, delivering more value and raising awareness of the charities benefitting from the event. We have successfully positioned Cycle to MIPIM as a professional, well-organised and enjoyable event for riders, and one that is highly regarded within the property industry.
Through our sustained activity and profile raising, Club Peloton as a brand and event organiser have cemented their place as the go-to company for industry cycling events.
Club Peloton is a fundraising charity that specialises in creating business networks. It uses cycling as a platform for challenge events, bringing together a love for the sport and the opportunity to raise money for great causes. Delivering unique and inclusive group ride events and experience, its journey started in 2006 with the cycle to MIPIM, an annual ride from London to Cannes arriving in time for MIPIM, the leading international real estate fair in Cannes. In 2017, 200 riders took part in the twelth edition of Cycle to MIPIM.
On Club Peloton events, industry professionals swap their suits for Lycra and receive a pro-ride experience which includes a full support crew, lead cars, rolling road closures, mechanics and sports therapists. The challenging cycling is a test of both physical ability and mental strength and the friendly and interactive atmosphere builds camaraderie very quickly and forms the core of Club Peloton's ethos.
Club Peloton also helps create bespoke rides for a growing list of clients within the industry areas in which it operates. Profits from these clients enhance its annual fundraising total.
Aspire handles all PR-related activities for Club Peloton which includes their flagship event Cycle to MIPIM, Cycle to MAPIC and their women-only ride pedElle.
Our work with Club Peloton includes writing press releases and media alerts, managing media relations, handling social media, supporting on PR events, creating a content strategy in partnership with the charity's media partner Estates Gazette and providing on-event support, in the form of daily media alerts and photo calls. Aspire PR Lead Kate Gordon handles the PR and social media and rides each event, showing utmost dedication to her role.

Samsung launches pink gold versions of Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge
Need more proof pink is in? A day after Apple launched a rose gold version of its MacBook, Samsung has announced its flagship smartphones, the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, will soon become available in pink gold.
You read that right: The color is not rose gold but pink gold, even though Samsung used the rose gold color moniker before, for example for its Gear S2 classic smartwatch. You can see what the new color looks like in the images above and below.
Now, we'd say the variations on the pink/rose/gold theme are simply what's trendy these days, but Samsung has some choice words to explain this particular color scheme. It provides a "sense of comfort," the company said in a blog post, and is intended to "soothe and incorporate a touch of gentleness, radiance and sophistication." So now you know. Read more...

Need for Nasolacrimal stents
Nasolacrimal duct obstructions may be either congenital or acquired. Obstruction of the nasolacrimal duct leads to the excess overflow of tears, resulting in watery eyes and an increased risk of eye infections and inflammation. To prevent these simple serious issues, current procedures include placing lacrimal stents through the puncta into the obstructed duct of the eye; intended to open up the lacrimal duct. Conventional lacrimal stents, however, exhibit long-term failure due to the inability to insert the stent primarily, malposition within the nasolacrimal system and obstruction by granulation tissue. The invention under review emphasizes the proper placement of the stent into the punta of the eye and overcomes the drawback of currently used stents (that channel the tears on the outside of the silicone tube) by facilitating efficient channeling of tears through the internal lumen of the stent.
Lacrimal Stent with opening
The invention under review includes small openings (slots) that are designed and created on the surface of the stent to channel the tears into the hollow cavity of the stent. The lacrimal stents have a diameter on the scale of 500 to 700 micrometers. The dimensions of these openings were chosen to ensure they were big enough so water may penetrate the surface, but also small enough that it still maintains the structural integrity of the stent. The surface tension of the tears did not hinder the ability of the tears to pass into the interior of the stent. If the openings are not created to proper size, with a diameter of larger than 300 micrometers, for the tear drops to enter, then the cohesive forces will not break apart and will keep the liquid from entering inside the tube. Finally, slot opening with a length over 2 mm showed better drainage efficiency.
- Treat lacrimal duct stenosis/obstruction,
- Treatment of chronic sinusitis
- Stent opening ensure efficient tear draining through the internal lumen,
- Significantly improves epiphora symptoms,
- Ensures proper stent placement

The opinion columns of The New York Times are supposed to be a place for lively debate.
Sometimes, the liveliest debate is over the columns. Especially when the opinions are conservative.
There has been an uproar over the hiring of Bret Stephens as an Opinion columnist, as there was an uproar over the hiring in 2008 of William Kristol. "Of the nearly 700 messages I have received since Kristol's selection was announced — more than half of them before he ever wrote a word for The Times — exactly one praised the choice," wrote Clark Hoyt, who was then The Times's public editor.
But today's reaction looks muted compared with the hornet's nest that was stirred in 1973 when the publisher, Arthur Ochs Sulzberger, brought William Safire aboard — directly from the Nixon White House — without even first informing his cousin, John B. Oakes, the truly liberal editor of the editorial page.
Mr. Safire, a speechwriter and special assistant to President Richard M. Nixon, did not disappoint those waiting to pounce.
On April 17, 1973, Mr. Nixon declared that "real progress" was being made in getting to the bottom of the Watergate scandal. "I condemn any attempt to cover up in this case, no matter who is involved," said Mr. Nixon, who was very much involved, as it would later turn out.
As far as Mr. Safire could see, the president had triumphed. And on that note, he began writing his "Essay" column on the Op-Ed page: "For Richard Nixon, this is comeback time — and when it comes to comebacks, the world's leading expert has just made his appearance on the right side of the Watergate investigation."
David Halberstam, a highly respected journalist and former Times correspondent, told the publisher — known as Punch — that he had made a mistake hiring Mr. Safire. "He is a paid manipulator," Mr. Halberstam said, just warming up.
"A few years ago when you had just taken over the paper you were handed a tough decision on the West Coast edition," Mr. Halberstam told Mr. Sulzberger. "You said — 'It's a lousy paper. Close it.' So Punch, this time the play is to you. It's a lousy column and it's a dishonest one. So close it. Or you end up just as shabby as Safire."
Mr. Sulzberger demurred.
"I appreciate that you feel I am prepared to make a 'tough decision,'" the publisher responded, "but right now, as far as I'm concerned, one is not necessary in this case. While I have not always agreed with Bill, I think he is developing a style of his own and that he is reflecting a philosophy. I remain confident that over the years he will be an important contributor."
But there was no inconspicuous retreat from the initial stumble.
"That is what is called 'being really wrong,'" Mr. Safire wrote eight months later. "Not mistaken, not slightly off base, not relatively inaccurate — but grandly, gloriously, egregiously wrong."
It was hardly the end of the line. Mr. Safire was to win a Pulitzer Prize in 1978 for his columns about Bert Lance, President Jimmy Carter's budget director, who resigned amid charges that he had personally traded on his ties with the president. The "Essay" column ran until 2005. Mr. Safire's other column, "On Language," ran until 2009.
And something besides his briefly-lived contrition explained why a few hearts softened in the Washington bureau, where Mr. Safire worked.
On the Fourth of July 1974, members of the bureau and their families gathered at the home of the editor Doug Robinson in Maryland. Bill Kovach was among them.
"Safire was the only one who saw Jim Naughton's young son fall into the pool and thrash around," Mr. Kovach recalled. "He swept past me and others and leaped fully clothed into the pool and pulled the boy out."
In the book "Safire's Washington," the columnist admitted that his wife, Helene, had pushed him in to save the boy. But the result was the same. "It was hard to hate me after that," he wrote.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) - Oil and gas stocks closed solidly higher Tuesday on a sharp rally in energy futures led by a more than 10% gain in the price of natural gas.
Natural gas for November delivery rallied $1.334 to close at a record $14.338 per million British thermal units. Heating oil for November delivery added 5.3%, or 9.26 cents, to close at $1.8888 a gallon. Both fuels rose on cold weather forecasts. See Futures Movers.
"The market is much higher, despite any news," said Citigroup analyst Kyle Cooper, in a note to clients. "The weather is supportive and heating oil is certainly the strongest. A very choppy market is still expected with prices eventually heading lower if Mother Nature at least becomes a little less bullish."
Also, November gasoline gained 4.6%, or 7.22 cents, to close at $1.6538 a gallon. December crude closed at $62.44 a barrel, up 3.5%, or $2.12.
The Philadelphia Oil Service Index OSX, +1.19% rose 3% to close at 165.31 points -- its highest close since October 4. The Amex Oil Index XOI, -0.36% gained 1.9% to close at 969.82 points, and the Ames Natural Gas Index XNG, -0.10% added 2% to close at 389.86 points.
"The E&P group has been whipped around by hurricanes recently, and many investors have proven to be "fair-weather," and have exited the group," Jefferies & Co. said. "While investors will have to sift through the rubble that hurricanes left in third-quarter results, we think certain stocks should 'clean up' as growth potential shines through."
Oil-service stocks got a boost from Ensco International and Nabors Industries, both of which reported strong earnings for the third quarter, despite hurricane-related operating disruptions.
Ensco ESV reported third-quarter earnings of $76.5 million, or 50 cents a share, almost triple the $25.8 million, or 17 cents a share, earned in the same period a year ago.
The quarter's results included an insurance expense related to damage from Hurricane Katrina, which amounted to 3 cents a share. Revenue rose to $276.7 million from last year's $187 million. Analysts surveyed by Thomson First Call had been expecting earnings of 47 cents a share and revenue of $265.2 million, on average.
The average daily rates for the company's jackup rigs increased 37% to $75,400. Utilization improved to 85% from 82%.
Shares gained 6.7%, or $2.86, to close at $45.87.
Nabors Industries Ltd. NBR, -0.41% said its third-quarter earnings more than doubled and predicted continued strong pricing as demand for its drilling rigs increases. See full story. Its stock rose 5.9%, or $3.75, to close at $67.15.
Halliburton Co. HAL, +2.59% shares slipped 2.8%, or $1.69, to close at $59.40. The company said late Monday earnings at its energy-services group and KBR unit increased over last year. While sales at KBR slipped, they were offset by higher revenue from the energy businesses. See full story.

We Provide Many Kinds of Commercial Loans
Commercial Loan Options
Palm Island Financial LLC offers various commercial loan options to fit most commercial real estate and small balance property types.
Non Recourse Loans
A non-recourse (debt) loan is when a loan is secured by collateral, which is usually property. If the borrower defaults, the lender can seize the collateral, but cannot go after the borrower for any further compensation, even if the collateral does not cover the full value of the defaulted loan amount.
Recourse Loans
A recourse debt holds the borrower personally liable. In general, recourse debt (loans) allows lenders to collect what is owed for the debt even after they've taken collateral (home, business, credit cards). Lenders have the right to garnish wages or levy accounts in order to collect what is owed.
Commercial Purchase Loan
Commercial purchase loans are made to individuals, sole proprietors, corporations, limited liability corporations for commercial and industrial property and business acquisition, for professional purposes.
Commercial Refinance
A refinance occurs when a business or person revises a payment schedule for repaying debt. Mechanically, the old loan is paid off and replaced with a new loan offering different terms. When a company refinances, it typically extends the maturity date. Companies or individuals refinancing loans may have to pay a penalty or fee. When the terms of the loan are revised in a way that changes the payments associated with the loan, the loan has been refinanced

The EU would 'never accept' frictionless trade for agricultural and food products if the UK introduces different environmental rules after Brexit, according to the chair of the Environmental Audit Committee (EAC).
Wakefield MP Mary Creagh made the suggestion to Defra Secretary Michael Gove when he gave evidence to the EAC last week.
Her remarks were prompted by the Cabinet's Chequers agreement, which proposed a 'common rule book' on agri-food regulations, but not those governing the environment.
Ms Creagh said: "The EU is never going to accept that we have frictionless trade in agriculture and food products and we have lower, or potentially lower, environmental standards.
"We are already missing our air pollution targets, we are set to miss our waste targets set by the EU and we are set to miss our water quality targets set by the EU."
Mr Gove, however, rejected Ms Creagh's suggestion, pointing out a number of EU member states were already failing to meet air and water quality standards while their trade in agri-food products continued.
He said: "Most of the larger EU nations currently fall foul of EU law, and yet at the same time, observably it is the case that trade is taking place across the EU 28.
"Simply because a country is not yet meeting the legal standards to which is has committed itself, that is not in itself ipso facto a barrier to trade."

Your dog uses his feet to do just about everything: walking, running, scratching, playing, and much more! Keep these essential body parts healthy with these tips from an Ashburn, VA veterinary professional:
Nail Trims
Regular nail trims are essential for your dog's continued paw health. When nails become too long, they can split painfully or get snagged in carpets and other surfaces. Walking can even become difficult or impossible! Use a canine-specific nail trimmer to keep Fido's claws properly blunted, or have your vet's office take care of it for you.
It's possible for your dog's paw pads to become cracked and dry, especially in cold weather. Combat the problem with a canine-specific paw-pad moisturizer. These products can help your dog's paw pads stay properly moisturized and prevent cracking, ultimately helping your pooch stay more comfortable!
Paw Checks
Sit down with your dog about once a week to check over each of the paws. Look for any foreign objects stuck in between your dog's toes or embedded in the paw pads; remove them if possible, and call your vet if you're having trouble.
Want more tips for your dog's paw care? Contact your vet clinic Ashburn, VA for help.

Saved up enough for a deposit? Ready to make the biggest purchase of your life? Well STOP right there and read the below! There may be things that you haven't thought about before you commit to buying a house. Read my blog to find out if there's any extra fees that you may not have thought of….
Mortgage set-up fees – When looking for your mortgage you may find those that have the lower monthly cost do incur a set-up fee which is usually an upfront fee to reserve the funds on a fixed deal.
Mortgage Arrangement fees – This is separate to the set-up fees and will only be applicable to some lenders dependent on the deal you're going for but there is an upfront cost separate to your monthly payments – this is basically like an admin fee but can sometimes add a hefty figure to your fees. With most lenders you are able to add this to your monthly payments but you will be charged interest.
Valuation and survey fees – Whilst most lenders tend not to charge for this there are some still out there that do depending on the product you're buying, this all depends on the value of the property and the level of survey you wish to choose. These can be between £100 – £1000.
Mortgage broker fee – If you're buying a new build and you go with their recommended providers then you won't have to pay a broker fee however if you're hiring an independent broker to arrange your mortgage you will have to pay a fee of around £500. It's worth checking whether this cost can be used to cover your next mortgage deals, to save you having to pay another broker.
Searches – These are included in your legal fees but are something to consider. Searches will be charged by the local council and these check deeds, drains, planning authorities and local issues. This can cost between £200 and £300 altogether.
Legal Costs – Again if you're buying a new build it's worth asking if they will cover your legal fees if you use their recommended panel of solicitors but you should expect to spend up to £1500 on legal fees dependent on the value of your property. This covers the work that is carried out by the solicitor.
Stamp Duty – Stamp duty is for all home buyers in the UK unless you're buying your only property for under £125k or your second property under £40k. The percentage of stamp duty you'll be charged is dependent on the value of your property.
Moving Costs – If you already have a house full of furniture and need professional help moving your belongings you need to factor these costs into your budget. Different providers will include different things as part of their package. Some providers will pack the furniture for you and wrap it up to avoid damages. On average a full three bedroom house worth of furniture costs around £800.
Building Insurance Fees – In order to secure your mortgage you will need to buy your building and contents insurance. For your mortgage you will only need building insurance but it's probably best to buy the two together. Make sure you shop around and are accurate as possible. The average home insurance is around £270 a year but this can be paid monthly.
Life Insurance Fees – Not always nice to think about but it is necessary. If you lose your job, get ill, develop a critical illness etc then it's better to be safe and have the insurance in place. Shop around for the best deal and be aware of your family history when submitting your applications – this can range anywhere from £8 to £100 a month dependent on the package you want. You can tie your insurance to your mortgage to save costs meaning the provider will pay out less as your mortgage becomes less over the years.
Hopefully this blog can help you when buying your house, it's the biggest purchase of our life's and ultimately it's better to be prepared. My next blog will be looking at household bills and items that you need to take into consideration when buying a house.

I opened this blog, to write different things about Communications, when I finished my first ten projects / speeches in my Toastmasters Club and got the Competent Communicator award,
After two more manuals Storytelling and Speaking to inform, with 5 projects / speeches each, I become Advanced Communicator Bronze. Then followed Entertaining manual and Speciality Speeches, other ten, different speech projects and plus two educational ones, and I was awarded Advanced Communicator Silver. I choose then two more Advanced Toastmasters manuals, Interpretative Reading and well, I have to look it up, plus a Workshop I had to hold which taught me a lot about Workshops, and now, yesterday, I received the Advanced Communicator Gold diploma! The highest in what they call the Communication track at Toastmasters International.
So 45 official speeches - mostly personal stories inside them - and a lot others, as I went as Mystery speaker a few times in different other clubs. I also went to tell my stories, ten or fifteen, to the Theatre, with Spark London and, of course, last year begun also to go to Standup comedy clubs where I am at my 22 or 23th. In all, the last three years, at least 80 times meeting the audience.
Which is normal, as at the first one, it is called Icebreaker in the Toastmasters clubs, I fall in love with the audience and the audience's reaction to my stories (and me telling them). Of course, as with a love affair, you go back for more. It is such a wonderful feeling, this communication with those in the audience!
Wether they are a class of 4 to 5 years old kids in a library of London or adult audience tasting Whisky in the Manchester town hall, or pals in one of my Toastmasters clubs, or unknown paying public at Canal Cafe Theatre, or a young men public in a Soho pub downstairs, I communicate with them and get so much energy back, I come home and can not sleep for hours. A wonderful feeling for which I go back again and again.
A nice printed certificate, a diploma from a heat I won is nice, but the feeling of high I get from the audience is what keeps me going for it again and again.

Born and raised in southwest Atlanta, GA, BLESSIN', born Darrius Sims, has been carrying out his dream since the age of 16. He entered the industry as a producer under his mentor and older brother, multi-platinum producer K-rab's Krazy Rythm and Beats Production company, working with and producing for artist such as Franchise, D4L, K-rab, BHI, and many other artists who surfaced during the period known for snap music. While producing music for other artist he still found time to make music for himself as an artist. At 18 his very first mixtape "It's Bout Da Swag" moved thousands of units independently, eventually capturing the attention of many well known labels. After much thought he decided to go where he knew and trusted, Strictly Bizness Records (then known for artist such as K-rab and BHI, Yung Money aka Money Block, and the Atlanta legend Kilo Ali) where he was one half of the original Rich Kids. After 2 years with Strictly Bizness Records, Blessin decided to venture off on his own. With his undeniable sound, catchy hooks, advanced word play, and sharp ear for a good beat his songs (produced and written) allowed him to become the opening act for many other artist, like Jagged Edge, Shop Boys, Boyz 'N da Hood, B.o.B and many more...... In the past year, BLESSIN' has recorded with the likes of newcomers Mullage (Trickin'), Rich Kids (My Patna Dem), Juney Boomdata (Wassup Wit Da Cookies), and others. As well as soon-to-be legends such as Fabo and Pastor Troy. After temporarily straying away the streets of the U.S. to take by storm countries such as Canada, Germany, Greece, and France... What better way to make a comeback than a collaboration with long time friend, southwest Atlanta's own DJ Kutt Throat.

Q: What is the difference between a syndicate and a Racing Club?
There are significant differences between syndicates and the Club. If you wish to join a syndicate, you must purchase a share in a horse. As well as the initial investment in the horse, you are also responsible for paying your share of the full range of costs relating to the horse's upkeep as well as any unforeseen costs such as veterinary bills. You are also committed to paying for the upkeep of that horse until it is sold or retired, regardless of whether it is racing or not.
The primary upside of being involved in a syndicate is that the members are entitled to their share of prize money earned and proceeds from a sale of their horse. However, the reality of racehorse ownership is that only a small minority of horses ever earn prize money in excess of their purchase/training costs or end up being sold for a sum greater than their purchase/training costs. On average it costs more than $50,000 per year to keep a horse in work with a metropolitan trainer.
In contrast, membership of the Kingstar Racing and Breeding Club does not involve purchasing horses, paying training fees or even committing to any onehorse. Thus, members get to experience what it is like to be involved in a string of horses for a much smaller financial outlay. Also, you are not just locked in to the one horse, who may not race for 12 to 24 months after it was first purchased.
Q: Who gets any prize money that the Club horses win?
Each time a horse races a member's draw will be held, and two members will win a share of the prizemoney for that race (less the trainers and jockeys commissions of 15% in total).
Q: What happens if a Club horse is sold or is no longer able to race?
Club race horses could potentially be sold, but in practice this is unlikely to be applicable in most cases. If a horse is injured and is no longer able to race for any reason, they will be replaced with another horse as soon as possible. The Club will aim to have no fewer than shares in six horses at a time. The proceeds of any horses sold we be reinvested into buying more racing and breeding stock for the club.
Q: What happens to a horse after it is finished racing?
If it is a mare we will most likely add it to the Club's broodmare band and breed with it. If it is a colt or gelding we will find a good home for the horse where it may end up becoming a show jumper, eventer, or some one's pleasure riding horse.
Q: Will I ever be asked for an additional payment after signing up for membership?
No. You will not be asked for any payment beyond your annual membership. There will be some additional events organised by the club that may require extra payment to attend. In the future we do expect to give the members the option of buying a directly owned share in some of our horses.
Q: Do I have to join at the start of the season?
You can join at any time. Once payment has been received, you will receive a confirmation email and be granted full access to everything the Club has to offer for 12 months from the signup date.
Q: I am buying Membership as a Christmas/birthday gift. Is it possible to choose a start date for the membership?
Yes! Please advise us of the date on which you would like the membership to start when making payment. We will activate the membership from that date rather than the date of payment.
Q: Will I get tickets every time I wish to go racing?
We have good connections with the race clubs and will endeavour to get as many parade ring tickets as possible for each race day. We will contact members before each race day to gauge the level of interest in attending and then decide if a ballot for tickets is required.
Q: What happens on raceday when you have a Club member ticket?
When your ticket has been allocated, you will be contacted with information on how to collect it on the day. This information will differ depending on the racecourse. You will usually receive a Parade Ring pass. Members are more than welcome to meet in the parade ring twenty minutes before their race to meet with the trainer and jockey and listen to their pre-race discussions.
Q: Can couples, friends or families share a Club membership?
Unfortunately not. If a friend or family member wishes to enjoy Club membership, they have to purchase their own individual Club membership. Each membership and all of its benefits are limited to an individual.
Q: Can children join the Club?
Unfortunately not. The club is for people aged 18yrs and over.
Q: Can a member be removed by the Club Trustees?
In exceptional circumstances where a member has acted in a manner prejudicial to the best interests of the Club, they will have their membership revoked without refund.
Q: What happens if I want to leave the Club?
Members can choose to leave the Club at any time, but will not receive a refund.
Q: What happens if the Club closes down?
If the Club closes down for any reason, existing members will be partially refunded their membership fee in proportion to how many months are remaining in their membership period at the time of the Club closure.

After the dust had settled on the field and the Oregon Ducks had come out victorious, Washington Huskies' head coach Chris Petersen said that the loss was "pretty disappointing." He went on to say that "when you play an elite team like [Oregon], one side of the ball has to be able to step up a little bit and make something happen to incite that spark." Petersen said that he expected the Huskies to be able to slow down the Oregon running game and was "anxious to put the tape on" and that "it was too easy" for Oregon.
It was unusual enough for Oregon, that during last night's game the Ducks and Huskies split the time of possession nearly down the middle, but what they each did with that time is what's important. The Ducks had 554 yards of total offense to the Huskies 317, and while the Ducks had 218 rushing yards and four rushing touchdowns, the Huskies were held to 133 yards and only one touchdown.
Talking about the Huskies defensive troubles, defensive coordinator Pete Kwiatkowski said, "We definitely missed a lot of tackles." He mentioned that the some of the players had bad positioning or that their eyes weren't on the ball or they weren't locking in on tackles, some things that were echoed by DL Danny Shelton and OLB Hau'oli Kikaha.
Communication errors were another key part of the Washington loss, with Shelton saying that "when you go against tempo teams, miscommunication is always something that happens." He went on to say that though he felt like he played well, the loss was "pretty frustrating" and that this was the "last time I'm going to play Oregon … They are one of the best teams in the nation, and I was going against one of the best centers in the nation [Hroniss Grasu] … They did a good job executing."
Many of the Husky players and coaches were fans of Marcus Mariota and talked about how hard he is predict. Asked about how hard Mariota was to build a game plan against, Kwiatkowski said, "He's smart. He's been in that offense a long time and he can get them into the right play. You can have him covered … and he can keep the play alive by scrambling and finding guys or running for a first down. It's a big time challenge for sure."
Hau'oli Kikaha spoke along the same lines as Kwiatkowski, saying about Mariota, "Just watching the film, he's the best. He hasn't thrown any picks and he's smart with the ball. Knows when to get rid of it. Great quarterback."
The rivalry part of this game was alive and well in most players' minds. Wide receiver Jaydon Mickens said that the loss was a "very tough" pill to swallow and that "it's a rivalry. Some people don't think it's one, but it is a rivalry to [Duck fans] and it means a lot. It means a lot to us and we really wanted this game. Unfortunately the Ducks prospered today. They were the better team, so hats off to them."
Praising the Ducks for their play, Petersen said, "I think they are as good as anybody in the country. This is an elite program … they've got maybe the best player in college football and their defense plays hard and they do some good things. You've got to play really, really good to beat those guys … you've got to play really, really good to hang with those guys."
In the end, Washington walked out of Autzen Stadium on the short end of a 45-20 lesson, with Oregon's 45 glowing on the scoreboard behind them.

Here is an insightful poem from Kati Morton's Mental Health Social Network:
A Poem About Recovery
Today I do not want to recover,
Today I want to curl up in my bed of addiction and sleep in.
Tomorrow I may put the razor away, and eat my lunch..
But today,
today want to I fall down.
Today I want to become a quitter.
Today I want to tuck my resolve into a corner of my dresser,
And dust away the remnant's of my confidence
from the picture frame of friends who left me.
Today I am willing to crumple my origami heart just for a bit of relief.
Today I learn the meaning of strength,
Today I define struggle.
Recovery isn't what I keep telling myself it is.
Recovery is waiting in a rainstorm because you have faith that a rainbow will appear.
Recovery is walking through a haunted house of my demons, and believing that I'll find an exit.
Recovery is taking off the blindfold, and being blinded by the light.
Recovery is your eyes adjusting to the light.
Recovery is moving on.
Recovery is learning.
Recovery needs tears to water it before it blossoms.
Recovery is the caterpillar in it's cocoon, waiting to become the butterfly it was promised.
Recovery isn't an accident, a coincident, it isn't luck.
Recovery is faith.
Recovery is work.
Recovery is slow steady healing.
Not an eclipse of the heart,
But a changing of the seasons,
And I'm still waiting for spring.
Recovery is being vulnerable.
Recovery is forgiving.
Recovery is acceptance.
Recovery is a lot of poems.
Recovery is a lot of crying.
Recovery is a lot of nostalgic songs.
Recovery is a lot of late nights on tumblr, or on the phone.
Recovery isn't a dream,
Recovery isn't made up
Recovery is giving me my future back.
Recovery is my high school diploma.
Recovery is learning what love really is.
Recovery is 5 years clean.
Recovery is my wedding day.
Recovery is holding my first child.
Recovery is growing old with a man I love.
Recovery is a future.
Today I do not want to recover,
But I'll try anyways
That is Recovery.

In the world of Shin Megami Tensei, demons can be negotiated with. This mechanic is not present in all SMT games, the popular games without this mechanic being Persona 3 and Persona 4. Simply put, deal with the devil to get more power, or money, or be scammed.
I will say this, at first I hated this mechanism, then I grew to love it. This gives the player a chance to interact with the monsters which does not happen in other series like Pokemon or even the new Digimon Cyber Sleuth. This gives the demons a lot of personality and really weird comedy. Parts of it kind of feels like the Witcher, as you can chill out with demons or have the conversation get really weird.
The history of demon conversation was a lot longer than I thought. Even the very first Shin Megami Tensei game which was released on 1992 on the Super Famicon has a pretty solid negotiation system in place. Even SMT IV which was released in 2013, as well as SMT IV: Apocalypse, which should be coming out soon in US, has very similar system. There have been games like Raidou Kuzunoha vs. The Soulless Army where they tried top mix up the system, but eventually returned to the core negotiation mechanics.
Demon Negotiations have purposes, you don't really start a chat with a demon just to waste time, although that would be pretty cool. If the negotiations go well, the player can get money from the demon, have the demon heal you and/or the party, give you an item, or join your party. If the negotiation goes south, the demon can leave or attack you.
In many SMT games, Demon Negotiation is the main way to get more demons in your party. And what is interesting that all of the demons are recruited, not forced into enslavement like Pokemon games, making SMT more humane than Pokemon in certain aspects.
There will be instances where Demon Negotiations will be impossible. One instance will be when it's the full moon or Kagutsuchi is at it's full phase. During these phases, the demon will become too excited and start attacking. And there are demons who are incapable to talking, and either will be impossible to negotiate with or require a special skill.
When certain demons are in your party, and when certain demons are engaged in comabt, certain dialogues can be triggered. For example, when you have a Pixie in your party and a wild Pixie appears, the wild Pixie will say something like "oh! You have a friend of mine in your party!" and heal your party. And there are times when very specific demons meet, they have a conversation. Some of these usually include: Baron & Rangada, Cereberus & Orthrus, any herald & any herald, Cu Chulainn and Scathath , and so on. Some of these are epic, some are just petty, and some are hilarious. And who can forget Raiho Kuzunoha!!
I might have left certain things out regarding this system. I love this sytem and hoping that upcoming Persona 5 will have something of this nature (I have been actively avoiding trailers to not spoil anything). I hope you enjoyed this one!
