I've always slept like a baby and held sleep to be very important. Only in the last few years have I had sleeping issues (thanks adulting). But if there is one thing that is guaranteed to take a huge toll on your health, it's lack of sleep. Just a few things that start happening to your body when you start sacrificing sleep are:
- Reaction time slows down
- Memory loss
- Men's testosterone levels decrease, and sex drive in both sexes dramatically decreases
- Stress hormones are released (like cortisol which inhibits collagen production and increases fat development)
- Decreased human growth hormone (which you need in adulthood for strong bones, thick skin, and good muscle mass)
- Totally screws up your appetite, your body is more hungry and less able to tell when you're full
- Actual loss of brain tissue
Ok cool so basically you're going to get dumber, fatter, uglier, and totally lose your sex drive…
In my quest to develop a healthy sleeping schedule in the craziness that is life, I've come up with 3 Secrets to Healthy Sleeping Routine:
Turn off any electronic devices
I've always been a huge proponent of not having a TV in my bedroom. While a ton of adults say that they "need" TV to fall asleep, that's only what you've trained your brain to need. I once read a study that talked about mentally associating actions with certain spaces. For example, when you eat, study, work, or watch TV in your bed, you've now mentally associated your bed with other actions besides sleeping. So now when you crawl into bed, your brain doesn't say "time to sleep", it says "ohhh time to be awake doing things". Make sense?
Now one that I am super guilty of is my phone… it's always within my reach whether on the pillow next to me or on my night stand. It's wayyyy to easy to reach over and see what's happening in the world. I can't put it on silent or do not disturb because I have a mortal fear of someone trying to get ahold of me for an emergency and me not being available.
But do yourself a favor, turn all that shit off. Not only does it keep you stimulated but you're training your brain to not sleep during sleepy time (definite scientific term).
Clear your brain
Easier said then done right? I'm of the belief that we control our own mind, the more you control your own mind, the more peaceful of a life you'll live. Gonna get a little yogi on you for a second so just bear with me. You have the ability to give power to the things in your life, you choose to feed your energy to things. Your energy is your most precious commodity, and you get to choose every day whether you're going to feed the positive and constructive or the negative and destructive.
Ok off my yogi-spiritual soap box…for now 🙂
Next time you find your mind cluttered, try this meditation technique. Imagine your issues written in chalk on a black chalkboard, in just one word, one at a time. If it's a problem with another person, write the name of the person (mentally), and then imagine yourself erasing the word. You may be able to erase it easily, or it might take a while. Or it might not erase at all, only get a little lighter. The point is that as you imagine yourself erasing it, you start to mentally and emotionally let it go, if only temporarily. As you start to let it go, you start to drift off into sleep. If that one doesn't work for you then try one of these meditation techniques for sleeping: No Sleepless Nights.
Use a noise machine
Or if you're a millennial like me, an app. Ever wonder why people sleep so good when there's rain or a thunder storm? Because that ish is relaxing! I started using a nature sounds clock when I was in high school and there's nothing else that gets me to sleep faster. My personal favorite is the Rain, Rain app because it let's you mix your own sounds into something custom, and it has a timer!

N.B. vets warn pot smokers to keep stash away from pets
Maritime veterinarians are concerned about the possibility of pets ingesting cannabis now that it's become more widely available.
You could call it a sign of the times.
Entering the Kannon Animal Hospital, pet-owners are met with this message: "Just because cannabis is legal for you, doesn't mean it's safe for your four-legged friend."
"I'm not sure whether it's because it's becoming more accepted, that might be a reason, but we're definitely seeing more cases," said Michiko Gehrig of Kannon Animal Hospital.
Some of the cases can be difficult for veterinarians to diagnose because symptoms vary from pet to pet.
From lethargy, weakness, and drooling to agitation and an increased heart rate.
"A lot of the diagnosis is based on the owners telling us, yeah, they ate some of our marijuana," vet Michael Blaney says.
Blaney says he's seen the occasional case of marijuana overdose in the past.
Now that it's legal, he's bracing for an increase.
"No question, we'll see more cases of cannabis ingestion," said Blaney.
The Canadian Veterinary Medical Association says no type of cannabis is currently approved for use in animals, and that giving pot to your pet could put them in a critical medical crisis.
But there is a growing interest surrounding pot-based medical treatments for pets.
Currently, however, veterinarians aren't allowed to prescribe it.
"There's potential that it could be safe, for sure, and I'm sure as we get more experience, as we put more research into things, that we'll see the benefits of it, but right now we don't know for sure," said Gehrig.
One thing is for sure though; to avoid a visit to the vet's office, keep your pot out of reach of your pet.

The Health Benefits And Facts Of Aloe Vera From Ancient to Modern Times…
Historically, Looking through the eyes of a creationist, let's go back to the beginning. The fauna and flora life was created and the first human gave them names. Wouldn't it be fascinating to know the first name that was given to the aloe vera plant? We can only imagine. However, we can agree that the aloe vera plant is a herbal plant, which has seen exponential growth in its health benefits down through the ages, especially in the wellness and pharmaceutical markets.
Fascinating facts
One of the most interesting facts that history reveals about aloe vera is the many names it has eg: Miracle Plant, Silent Healer, The Burn Plant, Medicine Plant, The Plant of Immortality, The wand of heaven, Nature's best gift and many more…
These names are derived from and are symbolic to the civilizations or cultures that used aloe vera as a herbal remedy for its health benefits.
In The Beginning
Aloe vera is said to; Originate from around the Arabian Peninsula. The word "Aloe" comes from the Arabic word "Alloeh" or Hebrew word "halal", meaning bitter shiny substance; whereas " Vera" in Latin, means "true". With over 200 species of Aloe vera grown around the world; however, there are only two which are commercially grown; Aloe barbadensis miller (True Aloe) plant and aloe aborescens which are most useful because of their medicinal properties. Another fact about aloe is that the plant is grown in warm tropical areas and can't survive freezing temperatures.
The Aloe Vera Plant
The Aloe vera plant is a succulent plant which looks like a cactus. It is also part of the lily family which includes onion, garlic and asparagus. Due to its health benefits and medicinal properties, history shows us another fact about aloe vera that it's one of the most mentioned plants that has benefited mankind through the centuries.
Health Benefits Of Aloe Vera In Ancient Times
History shows that the aloe vera plant and its use goes back as far as ancient Egypt. In fact, the plant was regarded as sacred and said to hold the secrets to beauty, health and immortality. Both Queen Cleopatra and Queen Nefertiti knew the health benefits of aloe vera to the skin. They used it as a part of their daily skincare and beauty regime. Importantly, aloe vera is mentioned in several places in the Bible (The Old and New Testaments).
The Eber's papyrus (an early Egyptian relic) dating back to around 1,500 B.C to 400 B.C is an eye-opener. It includes twelve different recipes for using aloe vera externally and internally. It also has instructions for treating ailments and diseases.
The papyrus covers 110 pages and discusses many topics such as digestion, dermatology, dentistry and gynaecology and how to treat them. In addition to ancient Egypt, aloe vera has played a major part where herbal healing is concerned in many cultures down through the ages. As a matter of interest Alexander, the Great and Christopher Columbus used it to treat soldiers wounds. Researchers have found it was used by ancient Chinese and Indian cultures. Also, Greek and Roman physicians such as Dioscorides and Pliny the Elder used it in their practices.
Health Benefits Of Aloe Vera In Modern Times
You can find a lot of facts about aloe vera and its health benefits by doing more research on the topic. In this blog, we've only touched on some key points. On that note, how does aloe vera benefit us today and what are the facts? Here in the 21st century, people are more health-conscious and want to use natural health products to look better and feel better. Therefore, armed with the facts of ancient times; many research and study have been done to understand the properties and health benefits of aloe vera. In light of that, the result is a plethora of aloe health and beauty products on the market for our use.
So, how can aloe vera help us? What's inside the leaf?
As you can see from the section of an aloe leaf (above), there are three parts:
- Aloe rind – is the green outer skin of the leaf which protects the inner parts. It has no great health benefits.
- Aloe latex – is the bitter, yellowish liquid or sap that has a strong odour that flows between the rind and inner leaf gel. Ideally not for consumption. Used as a laxative.
- The inner leaf gel contains the active ingredients of the aloe vera plant.
The clear inner gel of a freshly cut aloe leaf contains 75 active known ingredients of which 99% is water and the other 1% is made up of glucomannans, amino acids, lipids, sterols, and vitamins. However, there are many more which are not yet discovered.
When it comes to knowing the facts about aloe vera and its health benefits, it's also important to understand that for aloe to be fully potent, the plant needs to grow to maturity for four years. Moreover, with reference to the environment; When it comes to converting CO2 to oxygen, 20 aloe plants are able to convert the same amount of CO2 into oxygen as one tree.
The Health Benefits Gained From Aloe Vera Inner Leaf Gel
Dr Peter Atherton, MB ChB, DObst RCOG, FRCGP who researched at Oxford University and have written several books on the facts about aloe vera; the ingredients of the inner leaf gel can be broken down into the following groups:
Vitamins – contains a wide range, more importantly, the antioxidant vitamins C and E and beta-carotene. It also contains vitamin B12.
Minerals – includes, magnesium, zinc, copper, manganese, chromium, calcium, sodium, patassium and iron.
Amino Acids – our bodies need 20 amino acids; the building block of proteins. however, aloe gel provides 19 of them. More importantly, it provides seven of the eight essential ones that can't be produced by the body.
Sugars – also contained in the aloe gel is the important long-chain polysaccharides which act on the immune system to help boost its effects.
Enzymes – such as lipases and proteases which break down food and aid digestion. Enzymes help to speed up the chemical process of the body. They are essential for respiration, digesting food, muscle and nerve function.
Plant Sterols
The three main types of plant sterols act as a powerful anti-inflammatory agent. These substances also aid in blocking the absorption of cholesterol.
Saponins – soapy substances that exert a powerful anti-microbial effect against bacteria, viruses, fungi and yeasts such as thrush.
Lignin – a great benefit given to aloe to penetrate deep into the skin.
Anthraquinones – Aloin and emodin are the most important ones. Together they are strong painkillers. Also, in their pure form, they are powerful laxatives.
Salicylic Acid – This is an aspirin-like compound which is anti-inflammatory. When used orally and topically it helps to break down dead tissue.
Dr Peter Atherton outlines the health benefits of drinking aloe vera
Dr Peter Atherton MB ChB, DObst RCOG, FRCGP Peter has gained a great understanding of the power of herbal remedies whilst serving in the Far East and India and has published three books on the subject of aloe vera. He studied the medical effects of aloe vera as a Research Fellow at Oxford University. He is also an Advisory Board Member of Forever Living Products (U.K). Here are his Top Ten Reasons Why We Should Drink Aloe Vera.

Subsequently, we have gained a better understanding of its healing properties and health benefits. Not only does it have a positive impact on humans and animals, but also on the environment. The sum total fact about aloe vera is; it's truly a "Miracle Plant".View Our Aloe Drinks

Following the first half of the Summer League three teams remain in title contention. Defending champions Replay – best known for dominating the S&DPL – are certainly in the running. Silver Jubilee – best known for the character flaws of certain team members – top the tree. And Team Rileys – best known for their team camaraderie, good looks, witty banter and sumptuous pool – complete the trio of title contenders. The second half of the season pits TR against Replay in a match that could go a long way towards deciding the destination of the title…
Replay 1 Team Rileys 0
Nick Powell struggles with the pace of the table in rack one but is still first down to the black. Big Nick puts less pace on his final colour pot in a bid to redress the balance. But his shot carries too little pace and leaves a tough black with the white on the cushion. The black fails to fall and Derrick Lawley is back in… and Replay are one up soon after. Sadly for TR it's a theme that would continue throughout the night.
Replay 2 Team Rileys 0
Mark Beeston is in control from the break in the next with bags covered with a number of his opposition's safe. The miss arrives but Jason King is faced with an ultra-tough table. Kingy attempts to rifle a double in an attempt for position but the object ball rattles the middle jaws and is spat out and there's no reprieve for The Terminator.
Replay 2 Team Rileys 1
The rot is stopped by Andy Jones who takes out Neil Robinson to halve the deficit. Where's the video as my memory is hazy a best. The Professor potted the black – I know that. Must have been a dish with numerous wonder pots… oops.. found the video now, Actions speak louder than words:
Replay 3 Team Rileys 1
The next is a bad one to lose for Team Rileys. Kyle Wilson has two shots with two balls close to bags and only one ball tied up. Rather than move the bad one The Rookie opts to cut cut one of the two remaining yellows… and rattles it. The rack turns into a fudge fest and it's Phil Clarke who comes out on top.
Replay 3 Team Rileys 2
If Replay got away with the last it's TR who count their blessings in the next. Dave Walker boasts a record of 12 consecutive wins against the reigning champs. And the scourge of Replay does it again after Anton Doyle fails to make the most of his chances. When the black is missed Pubby is at his clinical best with a hallmark clearance.
Replay 4 Team Rileys 2
Paul Coppock pulls out two of the best single ball pots of the night. Once, twice, three times and maybe more Coppsy looks to be on for the win. But James Ruffell just about hangs in there and a couple of decent fudges prompt a poor two shots and Replay escape with a half time lead.
Replay 4 Team Rileys 3
While Spain are dispatching Portugal on penalties it's Jason King who keeps Rileys within touching distance. Kingy is well on top with some pin-point precision and it's hasta luego Derrick Lawley.
Replay 5 Team Rileys 3
If Rileys felt it wasn;t going to be their night beforehand the feeling was reinforced in the next. Nick Powell looks in decent shape for the counter-dish after the in-off from break. But Big Nick ends up sinking the white off his second spot. Harry Roberts mops up with glee, using the two intelligently towards the end,
Replay 6 Team Rileys 3
The tale of woe continues when Andy Jones rattles his penultimate yellow with the rest of the balls on. James Ruffell survives another major scare to finish off the rack and take his second of the evening.
Replay 7 Team Rileys 3
Bob Grant turns down a fudge in favour of an audacious snooker escape… and falls millimeters short. Mark Beeson takes full advantage with the two and now it's just a question of how many Replay can rack up.
Replay 8 Team Rileys 3
A dry break puts Phil Clarke in and Dom Mills is odds on not to get back to the table. A surprising positional error gives the Gypsy an opportunity to lay a snooker. But Mills fails to take a look round the table and manages to find the perfect spot for Clarke to clear up from.
Replay 9 Team Rileys 3
The disastrous night peaks at unlucky 13 for The Pub Player. And just like in the Stocky Singles it's the curse of Jason Gardner which strikes to knock Dave Walker off his Replay pedestal. The shock of the night? The shock of the season? It was a bit of a shock as Predator hammers the final nail in TR's coffin. Is the title tilt over… Maybe not quite yet but Rileys will need some big wins now to put themselves back in the running.

Good 7.4 From 35 reviews
Beware the €45 cleaning fee! This should be stated upfront not hidden away. Same for one night or one week. Well located for the train station. Cozy studio apartment with large terrace.
This apartment was located within 5 mins walk of the station and was very easy to find. Communication with the owner's representative was easy and Julien was very responsive. He and the owner met me at the apartment which was very re-assuring considering that it was located in a small dark street. There was a Spar supermarket around the corner which was perfect for a late dinner and breakfast provisions. The only small criticism would be the access to the bedroom and bathroom which was located on a mezzanine above the apartment and accessed by a steep and rickety wooden stairway. The bed and bathroom were both very clean and modern as was the rest of the apartment.
Newly renovated apartments in a Slightly seedy area close to train station, including all the usual amenities being this close to the train station offers: a big Carrefour for groceries, kebap joints, fast food, strip bars... you get the idea. A fair hike to the old town, but public transport is conveniently available. Apartment had no air conditionné and can feel very stuffy, especially in hot weather.
This was ideal for a multiple might stay. There were kitchen facilities such as stove top, small but adequate fridge and supplied with coffee makers, dishes, and cooking utensils. The tram was around the corner and very suitable for getting around Bordeaux. Also the train station was a 5 minute walk away. As our train was extremely early we were able to easily walk there and not be concerned with a taxi.
Many details need attention. Mainly teething problems

Tilting Bowl
The tilting bowl is a design research project that aims to investigate how computational artifacts can consciously and unconsciously become a meaningful resource in the practices of everyday life over time. We refer to the idea as things of practice in which we want to understand how the interweaving of shape, materials, interface features, software, and electronics come together in digital artifacts to enable adoption within practices. As a consequence, the specifications for the tilting bowl are that it be a desirable artifact for the home and that it seamlessly fits and functions with other everyday objects for several months. In large part, this drove the design decisions of the tilting bowl

In my book, Disney's Animal Kingdom: An Unofficial History, I devoted an entire chapter to detailing many of the extracurricular activities available to Disney's Animal Kingdom and Animal Kingdom Lodge guests, things like the Wild Africa Trek and the Sunrise Safari.
Any future revisions to the book will surely include a segment on Caring for Giants, a behind-the-scenes look at the magnificent pachyderms who roam freely in the park's vast savanna.
Caring for Giants is an hour-long experience that is exclusive to Animal Kingdom. After purchasing your ticket ($30 for both adults and children, with Disney Vacation Club and annual pass holder discounts available) and signing waivers at a booth near the entrance to Kilimanjaro Safaris, you're given a lanyard with a name tag. That name tag, you'll learn at the tour's conclusion, is made from an interesting component: Elephant dung.
That's one of the dozens of things you'll learn during this educational and quite enjoyable sojourn.
The adventure begins when your group walks out of the park and into a backstage area. Along the way, you'll pass a back door to the Festival of the Lion King venue.
Interacting with stilt walkers
If you're lucky – and we were – you'll see and interact with several of the show's stilt walkers as they make their way to the building's back entrance. In our case, the colorfully clad performers stopped to chat with some of the younger members of the group, including our granddaughter Abigail.
From here, you make your way to a backstage parking lot, where an air-conditioned bus – parked near several of the rugged vehicles used for Kilimanjaro Safaris – awaits.
The bus motored past a variety of behind-the-scenes areas: Storage facilities, animal care centers and fields where the animals' food is grown.
After crossing over the Wildlife Express Train tracks, our bus finally came to a gate in a rather remote-looking section of the park.
The gate swung open and we proceeded along a dirt road bordered by a small stream. The bus came to a stop about a quarter of a mile down the road.
We reach our destination: A shaded overlook area
Here, we disembarked the bus, then climbed up an aluminum staircase and arrived at our destination: A shaded overlook area, where we were greeted by elephant experts. A few yards in the distance were several elephants… who were fast asleep.
"Elephants sleep while standing up," one of the animal experts told us. "You can tell they're asleep because their trunks are very relaxed."
The overlook area is fenced in and is surrounded by tall trees that provide ample shade; there are benches available. Near the fence is a display that showed a cross-section of an elephant's complex hoof.
As we observed the elephants – six or seven were visible standing near a tall baobab tree – several vehicles from the Kilimanjaro Safaris attraction could be seen as they rumbled by.
One of our guides pointed out several of the elephants by name, including Rafiki, an elderly female who has never had any offspring, as well as one of Animal Kingdom's newest stars, Stella, who was born on Dec. 14, 2016, to Donna.
Stella weighed 240 pounds at birth and will be on her mom's milk, we were told, until she's about 3 years old and can completely rely on her trunk to feed herself.
Elephants live in family groups
We learned other important facts about elephants — how they tend to live in family groups, and how members of the group communicate, primarily by touch, smell, sight and sound.
Elephants can live up to 70 years, and when a member of their group passes away, the other members show genuine sorrow and empathy.
The elephants are given top-notch care by the park's veterinarians. "Blood samples are taken once a week, from their ears," a guide said, to make sure they're healthy.
The experts also talked about elephants' uncanny ability to find water, particularly in arid areas. "They can sense water underground," we were told, so when humans are searching for water sources, they'll bring an elephant along to find pools of water underfoot.
Before boarding the bus again and heading back to the main section of the park, we learned that elephants consume about 300 pounds of food per day. "But they don't digest their food very well," our guide said. As a result, "their poop is often used for fertilizer."
And whatever's left over can be used to make paper.

Around three months after Ford Motor Co. chose BlackBerry (NASDAQ:BBRY) subsidiary QNX's technology to power its Sync 3 in-car technology platform, and not technology from longtime partner Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), Ford is now returning to Microsoft. Ford has contracted with Microsoft for the software giant to deliver cloud-based wireless updates to its connected cars.
When Ford chose QNX for Sync 3 in February, the company stressed it would continue working with Microsoft, including on older versions of Sync. Thus, the companies' new partnership is an indication that there is no bad blood between the car maker and software giant--or at least not enough to derail their partnership.
Sync is the in-car infotainment platform Ford uses for tis connected car, but the new service will be called the Ford Service Delivery Network, which will be powered by Microsoft's Azure cloud computing platform. Ford said that the service will let it quickly deliver new connected features to its Ford and Lincoln brands, scale up global availability of services and provide flexibility for future connected car offerings.
"As consumers shift toward more cloud-based services, the Ford Service Delivery Network architecture is a strategic approach to keep vehicles up-to-date and relevant throughout the vehicle ownership period by making it easy to add or evolve services," Sanjay Ravi, Microsoft's senior director of worldwide manufacturing, wrote in a company blog post. "Microsoft Azure provides a global common cloud platform that allows Ford to deliver services worldwide and scale quickly to reach its broad customer base. This means that Ford can send updates as they become available, ensuring customers will have the latest technology as it becomes available."
The platform will let Ford update lots of software on its cars, including display screen graphics and voice-recognition software, according to the Wall Street Journal. The WSJ noted that the cloud connectivity will be available this year with the latest generation of Ford's Sync 3 system, which will be available on some 2015 models and across the company's lineup by the end of 2016.
Microsoft said the Ford Service Delivery Network will let Ford make over-the-air software updates as well as expand the availability of MyFord and MyLincoln Mobile connected services. Those services offer features like scheduled remote start, vehicle finder, and vehicle status (such fuel or charge level, tire pressure).
The platform could let Ford, and potentially other automakers, update their cars and perhaps even diagnose issues without customers needing to take their cars into dealerships.

In return China did the same thing with US products(certainly with different numbers, and we are talking about billion dollars here). Which causes all the trade war to be started. Both the 2 countries are talking about this but till now no satisfactory result is coming out.\n\n\n\nThis War increases its impact when tech giants like Google - The world's largest search engine , Huawei - world's second largest smartphone producers and Facebook - world's largest social media network jumps into it.\n\n\n\nImpact on the Technology Giants\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChinese products are getting banned in the USA with strict notice. US govt sought to blacklist the Huawei from all over the globe. Which causes a dispute among Google and Huawei, as a result, Google refuses to give access to its pre-install phone apps like - Gmail, youtube and many more. Huawei responded to it by announcing new smartphones in December without the google owned apps. Reports tell that they might be bonding with the Aptoide for app download in mobiles.\n\n\n\nAfter Google, Huawei has another dispute recently with the largest social media network, Facebook. Facebook won\u2019t allow Huawei to pre-install its apps on smartphones anymore, Reuters is reporting. It\u2019s the latest example of Western tech companies cutting ties with the beleaguered Chinese telecom giant after President Trump issued an effective trade ban against it. \n\n\n\nFacebook dealt with Huawei in some different ways. Google agreed on downloading the apps from the play store on the phones which are in use or are being processed in the factory. Which causes no trouble to the consumer. But Facebook denied it. It strictly banned the pre-install on any phone which had not left the factory.\n\n\n\nNow, There will be no inconvenience to the phone users till now. But, Huawei smartphone will not be able to pre-install the apps or using facebook. They have to make some third party apps. Which will be getting a download on the phones from a third party source. \n\n\n\nThis is the Biggest Trade war in History.\n\n\n\n Do check out Huwaei's new 5G phone , which will be comming soon.\n\n\n\nFor more awesome Tech Content Like us on Facebook, Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and Subscribe to Our YouTube Channel.

Former Spurs midfielder Jamie Redknapp has claimed that the club's decision to sell Kyle Walker has drastically backfired, and more high profile exits could follow.
Mauricio Pochettino's side were well beaten by Arsenal in Saturday's north London derby, and the loss was made worse with right-backs Serge Aurier and Kieran Trippier failing to create a single chance in their last two games.
JAMIE REDKNAPP: Tottenham have to start thinking like a big club if they are to be successful #TheVerdict https://t.co/AM6xHD2ZO4— MailOnline Sport (@MailSport) November 20, 2017
Spurs looked they like had done well with the £54m sale of Kyle Walker to Man City in the summer, but the England man has been superb at his new club as they sit eight points clear at the table with Walker playing an integral role in their success.
Redknapp, who was played for Spurs between 2002 and 2005 told the Daily Mail that other star players could follow Walker out the door, starting with fellow full-back Danny Rose who has apparently fallen out with the Spurs boss.
The Sky Sports pundit also stated that if star left-back Rose was to leave, it would send a negative message to his teammates and give them little reason to stay at the club, especially with Europe's giants keeping a very close eye on Harry Kane and Dele Alli.
Kane is said to be a prime target for Real Madrid, whilst Alli and Rose are also said to be targets for Barcelona and Man United respectively.
Pochettino has brought great success to Spurs since his arrival in 2014, but his side have often fallen short at the final hurdle, and Redknapp doesn't think the club's mentality has changed since he left them 12 years ago.

Conservation Status
The Golden Tanager has a large range of approximately 438,000 km2. Because of this, the IUCN does not list the Golden Tanager as threatened or endangered and assesses the conservation status as of Least Concern. Population declines have been reported recently, but without knowledge of the total population size it is difficult to determine the severity of the effects on the species. Until total population size is known the Golden Tanager will remain at a non-threatened status (BirdLife International 2009).

Food fun: Wine and garlic fests
Just as the Harrow Fair cranks up for this Labour Day weekend and as organizers move into high gear for Amherstburg's Shores of Erie International Wine Festival Sept. 9-12,
along comes a news release for Stratford's garlic party.
It's quite the shindig, especially with the slogan Eat. Drink. Stink. Read on, right from the culinary communique:
The Stratford Garlic Festival is a must for thousands of people who know a good thing when they smell it! It's a celebration of the homegrown bounty and richness of the region; a premier event for lovers of garlic! Engaging, fragrant and fun for the whole family, the festival features superb celebrity chefs offering cooking demonstrations, experts giving educational talks and presentations, area artisans displaying their works, live entertainment …and lots of GARLIC!
The celebration of Ontario garlic, with its superior taste and health benefits, is part of an emerging trend which is seeing consumers increasingly interested in buying and eating local food as often as possible. Over 90 percent of the festival's garlic will originate from a 100-mile radius– ideal for anyone interested in adopting, or supporting, the 100-mile diet…
On Saturday, September 18th from 9 a.m to 4 p.m. more than 70 regional garlic growers and market vendors will offer garlic and garlic creations along with other unique, quality fare to satisfy your cravings for the pungent bulb. Garlic dips, spreads, jellies, preserves, breads, cheeses, soups, oils, teas, and even fudge are just a few of the vast array of items that will be available…

Hunting in the Dark: Do Red Dot Sights Work At Night?
Anyone who has already used a red dot sight to help improve their aim will tell you that they are worth it. If you're looking for a way to up your game when it comes to hitting your intended target, then a sight is the way to go.
A sight is a device that is attached to your firearm. It provides the shooter with a red dot in the middle of the lens, calculating where the bullet will land. As a hunter, having enhanced accuracy can change the game when it comes to reducing the times you miss. But what about in dim-lit environments? Do red dot sights work at night?
In this article, we will explain what a red dot sight is, how it works, and how it can benefit you. We'll also go over if the device can function at night or in dim-lit locations.
What Is a Red Dot Sight?
A "sight" is what you could call an extra tool that can be attached to your firearm to enhance your ability to hit a target. While it doesn't have magnification, it does provide you with either a dot, crosshair, or another symbol to help identify where the bullet would land.
Red dot sights are designed to be used with short-ranged guns, which means that you should use them with handguns, rifles, and other short-distance guns. The reason for this is that each sight is calibrated to estimate a certain distance, such as 100 yards, and if you go anywhere above that then you may miss your target.
Why Should I Use a Red Dot Sight?
As a hunter, you only have one shot before you scare away your target. Having a red dot sight can help provide you with extra visibility and guidance so that by the time you pull the trigger, it's the only shot you need to take.
Sights increase your accuracy, improve your ability to lock onto a target quicker, and provide you with a better idea as to where the bullet will land on your target. All of these elements are essential when it comes to hunting, so why wouldn't you want one?
Do Red Dot Sights Work at Night?
Sights operate by using either a laser or light to help project a red dot through a lens. The lens is designed so that it can allow only certain colors to be reflected, hence allowing the red dot light to be reflected back to your eye and onto your target.
Red dot sights will work in any lighting, provided that you have the right type of sight. There are various different sights on the market, and each one of them is designed to be used in different settings.
Different Types of Sights
Here are a few of the most popular sights:
Open Sight
These are commonly known as "iron rifle sights." They are a classic sight set-up that has been around since the beginning of firearms. On top of the firearm, you will find a window or cutout that you can use to look through. Sometimes its a rectangle, other times it's shaped like a ring. Either way, you look through it to see where the end of the rifle barrel is. The front of the gun needs to be lined up with the target.
Dot Sight
Dot sights project a laser beam onto the lens and then focus it on where you're aiming. These sights provide magnification, which you can use to keep both of your eyes open to track your target. They also provide you with quick target acquisition.
Laser Sight
Laser sights are the ones that you see in movies where the sniper is sitting on top of a building with a bright red laser going off into the distance. While these units aren't often used for hunting, they can be used in dark environments.
Telescopic Sight
These sights are known as "rifle scopes" and are the most commonly used sight for hunting. They feature a small tube that attaches to the top of a rifle. This can provide you with up to 80 times magnification, making them perfect for long-distance hunting, as you'll have a pinpoint view of your target and where you'd like to aim.
So, among these sights, which one is the best to use during night hunts? When choosing which one to use, the first thing you need to do is consider how dark the environment you are hunting at really is. Some dot sights are explicitly created for night time use, and many of them come with night vision.
You will also be able to use laser sight at night. However, because the laser is so bright, it may scare off other animals. To solve this, you should consider choosing sights that have a brightness level adjustment feature.

9 Expedient Belay Devices. Interlinked carabiners, figure eight descenders and even pitons can be used as expedient belay devices.
(Q) Carabiner Brake Method. Also known as the "Crab" brake. This method is somewhat complex to set up, but it has the advantage of not requiring any special equipment.
(§) Attach one locking or two non-locking opposite and opposed carabiners to the hard point on a harness.
(b) Clip another pair of non-locking carabiners to the other carabiners already attached to the hard point.
(c) Take a bight of the rope through the outer pair of carabiners.
(d) Take another carabiner and clip it across the outer pair of carabiners beneath the bight of the rope.
(e) The rope then runs across the outer edge of this final carabiner known as the brake crab.
(f) To brake, pull the rope forward causing a bight around the rope and the carabiner.
(2) Figure Eight Method. There are three ways to use the figure eight as a belay device.
(a) Use the figure eight in the normal manner as in rappelling.
(b) Pull a bight of the rope through the small hole of the figure eight and clip a carabiner through the bight. Belay in the same manner as with an ATC or stitch plate.
(c) Place the figure eight on a carabiner in the normal fashion. Pull a bight through the large hole of the figure eight and clip it through the carabiner.
(3) Petzl Grigri. The grigri is a specialized belay device that doesn't require any stopping force at all from the belayers hand. It works on the same principal as the safety belts in your car. With slow steady movements the rope feeds through freely. When there is a shock load (as in a fall) the grigri locks, jamming the rope with a cam. There is some tendency for the grigri to lock up when the leader makes a sudden move up. It also works badly or not at all with wet or icy ropes; that together with its weight and bulk, makes it largely unsuitable for mountaineering but quite useful in climbing gyms and in rock-climbing areas.
(a) Open the grigri and run the rope around the cam. Pay attention to the routing and ensure the load (leader) is on the end of the cam closest to the carabiner hole.
(b) Close the grigri and hook the carabiner from your harness (MAC) through the hole in the bottom of the grigri.
(c) Check the diagram and ensure the rope is run the correct way.
(d) Perform a function check by feeding the rope through the grigri with both hands. Then take the load rope (rope from the climbers harness) and give it a jerk. The grigri should lock and stop all movement.
(e) The left hand is the guide and the right controls the slack. Should a climber take a fall and you need to release the load or lower the climber, the left hand operates the load release lever. Note that you must maintain control of the slack rope with the right hand to help control the speed of the descent.

Currently, the production of grape species in the southeastern U.S. is severely limited by Pierce's Disease (PD), caused by the widespread xylem-limited bacterium Xylella fastidiosa. As a result, mainly muscadine cultivars and some American or French-American hybrid bunch grape cultivars with resistance to PD can be successfully cultivated in Alabama due to the high PD pressure. Recent trials in the state have assessed the productivity and fruit quality of ten hybrid bunch grape cultivars, but rootstock cultivar evaluation in our environment has not been studied before. The interest in grape production in Alabama is currently growing and the need to generate knowledge on the effects of selected rootstocks on the overall viticultural performance has become essential. Thus, an experimental vineyard was established in spring of 2014 that consisted of 'Chardonel' and 'Norton' hybrid bunch grape cultivars grafted on selected rootstocks or grown on their own roots. The list of tested rootstocks include 1103 Paulsen (1103P), Kober (5BB), and Teleki (5C). Data was collected to compare vine phenological development, vegetative growth, cropping potential and fruit quality traits.
Figure 1. 'Chardonel' (A) and 'Norton' (B) bunch grapes grown at the CREC, Clanton.
Our results indicate that 'Chardonel' grafted on 1103P was highly productive, and is considered the best scion-rootstock combination in terms of cropping potential (Table 1). 'Chardonel' grafted on 1103P vines also produced 22 % larger cluster size that own-rooted 'Chardonel' in 2018. While the 2017-2018 growing season provided the first indications of the impact of rootstock selection on vine productivity and the potential for enhanced viticultural sustainability in Alabama and the southeastern U.S., to ascertain the long term effect of rootstocks on vineyard longevity, productivity, and vigor, further evaluations in Alabama are warranted.

Lamentations As Voters Registration Ends
As the continuous voters registration wound up across the nation on Friday, some residents of plateau state who are yet be registered have expressed worry over disenfranchisement during the fourth coming general elections in the country.
Lamentations As Voters Registration Ends
This was the situation in most of the registration centers visited across the state as it clearly indicated rush hour scenario with large crowds struggling to get registered. However, INEC through its head of electoral operations in the state ruled out any possible extension of the excise. Despite INEC'S decision not to extend the excise, these Nigerians and many others yet to be registered are hoping for another opportunity to do so.

- What was the Purpose?
- What are the problems with HVAC on campus?
- Methods Used on OWU's campus.
- Methods being Implemented on other Campuses
- Approaches for Improving HVAC on Campus

- Students
The purpose of this project was to study the current heating and cooling practices on campus to see how efficient and environmentally friendly they are. Having heated buildings on campus is an expected amenity on college campuses these days. I can remember when I was taking campus tours and there was almost always a question of whether the dorms had air conditioning and heating. For buildings with relatively new buildings, there usually is some form of efficient heating and cooling systems. However, for the majority of college campuses that have old buildings, the answer is either no or yes, but the system is archaic. OWU's buildings are the latter. Most buildings were built-in the 1800's and have large, inefficient systems. Seeing as OWU is currently in the process of building new buildings or working on replacing a dorm in the future, now is the perfect time to review efficient and environmentally sustainable heating and cooling systems in new buildings.
Methods of Heating and Cooling
The first question I asked was, what systems do OWU buildings have now? I sat down and interviewed two staff members, Peter Schantz and Jay Scheffel from buildings and grounds to answer this question. For most of the older buildings, Slocum being their primary example, they have extremely large and extremely old boilers that heat air that then run through vents throughout the building. There is often a lot of heat loss and because of their age, the boilers often leak. Maintenance is also a pain because, if something breaks, they may need to have it custom-made which can be really expensive. Other systems use boilers which heat up water and send it through pipes to controllable radiators. Meanwhile, the new, updated buildings, such as the Sluplexs, have residential style HVAC that runs at 94% efficiency. Merrick uses a system of heat transfer. When one room gets too hot , a system will transfer the air from the room into a system that heats up a room that may be too cool. Basically, instead of forcing the air to heat or cool, it transfers heated or cool air throughout the building where it is needed. It does this through an automated system. Meek Aquatic Center gets its HVAC through geothermal power. Most buildings have automated systems as well. Once the temperature drops to a certain level, heating will turn on. In most cases, the temperature has to be 55° or below before the heating activates. These methods used in newer or renovated buildings are all efficient and environmentally sustainable.
Now that I understood what was being done on campus, I wanted to find what other campuses were doing and if their methods were more effective or not. Many college campuses implement similar HVAC systems that OWU uses, but a few colleges do wildly different things. University of Nebraska-Lincoln's Innovation Campus uses a system where waste water is used to provide heat. Waste water from a near by waste water treatment plant is brought to a central building where it is heated up and circulated throughout the campus before being sent back to the central building and back to the treatment plant. This method is likely outside of what OWU can do as an entirely new building would have to be built-in a central location and connecting building to a central heating area would be extremely costly or down right impossible without destroying older buildings.
Other campuses use geothermal on a larger scale then OWU does. The main way that campuses are saving money and improving efficiency is by using energy meters to track energy use. Colleges, such as Oberlin, can then make low-level changes such as adding automatic systems to control when heat is activated which save thousands of dollars in heating costs. In the interview with Peter and Jay, they stated that there are a couple of master meters set up on campus to monitor steam and natural gas use. However, there has not been a meter reader position in around 15 years. As a result, obtaining accurate information on energy use around campus has been difficult.
Problems and Solutions
With a better understanding of what HVAC methods are used on OWU's campus and other college campuses, I needed to learn about the problems and ways to mitigate them. Jay stated that one of the problems with the newer systems is keeping up with technology. As technology in HVAC increases, it becomes more expensive to keep systems up to date and harder to find replacement parts for systems that are older. Financial management would likely cure this problem, but that is out of the scope of this project.
Maintaining efficiency is a problem that can be addressed. Replacing old systems cannot be easily replaced without major renovations or replacing the building all together. Instead, changes can be made on a smaller scale: through guiding behavioral changes and education. Many students and faculty have a limited understanding of how these systems work. In dorms that have radiators, students don't often understand how to operate them. The fiddle with the rotating wheel control, notice that it doesn't seem to be working, and instead open a window. This can affect the heating efficiency of the room since may still be running. Better education for students whom may not be familiar with operating radiators could solve this problem.

Set up your home office. To work effectively, you'll need to have a dedicated business space within your home. If you work locally, this is also your commercial space. You'll need to create an area separate from family members, pets, and other distractions.[5] If possible, separate this area as much as possible from the rest of your home. The physical separation will help create mental separation between your home life and work life and also make the tax deduction for a home-based office less subjective.

It doesn't matter how long or detailed your plan is, as long as it covers a few essential points. Most successful small businesses will need to have a break-even analysis, a profit-loss forecast and a cash-flow analysis.

This is basically an employment temp service, but you may be "leasing out" employees for longer stints of time. The advantage to the customer is that they don't have to get involved in sourcing, screening and qualifying candidates, and importantly, they are not responsible for employment taxes, withholding and reporting. To succeed at this business, you need a strong ability to sell your services and place employees. This can be a "messy" business with employees coming and going, tax filing requirements, and customers to please. However, the upside is unlimited, some employee leasing firms have grown into mammoth enterprises!
Maybe this is an obvious choice for a small town business opportunity, but sometimes the obvious answers are the most overlooked. Though a grocery store might not sound like the sexiest business choice, it is one of our most practical recommendations and one that your whole town is guaranteed to need. Like many small town business ideas, there are many directions you can take this business in. Perhaps your town already has a local grocery store, in that case, opening a specialty food shop might be the right call. If your town already has that as well, what about a wine or cheese shop? Though you might be thinking, "how much wine or cheese can one small town consume?" Remember, when serving a small community, options are limited, which can open up an opportunity for you to serve residents in more ways than one. Consider opening a wine and cheese shop combination. Just make sure not to bite off more than you can chew. Being a few things to a few people is ok, but don't try to be everything to everyone.

Talk to the vendors and suppliers who will sell you materials and equipment, and the retailers or other distribution providers who will help sell your product. Explain your business concept to them and get advice regarding what they've seen in the marketplace you need to address.
Every business needs help with their Internet marketing. And now I see even the smallest businesses hiring specialists for individual aspects of digital marketing. For example, they may hire one expert for pay-for-click search engine advertising, another for Facebook marketing and still another for SEO for their website. So, you could focus on one aspect of digital marketing, or you could be a generalist.
In that case, you buy the building and hire a management company to handle the day-to-day hassles. I once tried to sell one of my online businesses to a 40-year old real estate billionaire who started out his business with just a couple multi-family homes.

Proverbs 16:21; "The wise in heart are called discerning, and gracious words promote instruction."
I recently had a lively conversation about how we talk to people. Their point of view was starkly different to mine. They believe that speaking harshly to people (even children) is how people hear you, even to the point of cussing. They also went on to say that the problem with society (more specifically, America) is that we caudal too much instead of correcting, and the only way to correct is with harsh language.
Ephesians 4:29; "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen."I disagree. To yell at someone or to even cuss at someone to get your point across is not only harmful to the person receiving the words, but it is more than likely that the person you are trying to "get your point across to" will actually tune you out. If spoken to harshly long enough, the cycle will begin again. This my friends, is a vicious circle.
Proverbs 7:27; "The one who has knowledge uses words with restraint, and whoever has understanding is even-tempered."Correction is the words used, not the harshness in which the words are said. I have worked with many people over the years. I have been cussed at by superiors, co-workers, even family. To say that I listened to them would be far fetched. I have always felt like less of a person after being belittled with the harshness and tone that was spoken to me. Over the years the yelling at people to get a point across or even to cuss at someone out of frustration and anger was where I found myself. I didn't like being talked to that way, yet there I was (sometimes still) talking at people the way I had been talked at instead of talking to people the way I wanted to be talked to. But the good news is the cycle can be broken!
1 Corinthians 14:9; "So it is with you. Unless you speak intelligible words with your tongue, how will anyone know what you are saying? You will just be speaking into the air.By far the most effective leaders (and parents you are a leader) are ones who correct with loving intentions and with a heart to help not hurt. This is where my learning, how to change how I spoke to others, began (and it is a work in progress). When heated debates and disagreements occur a couple of things begin to happen; first you can feel your temperature rise, and secondly you can feel the anger begin to boil on the tip of your tongue. So what sets apart a person who corrects without harshness and cussing. I do believe it is a few things...like grace, mercy, and that they are acting out of love.
Proverbs 16:24; "Gracious words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones."There's a few things I have to do in order for me not to lose my temper (and I don't always succeed). I have to pray. Pray for God to help me control my anger and to not say something that I'm going to regret. I have to stop. Yup, stop and take a step back. Before I say a word, I have to look at the situation and ask myself why I'm getting so angry. Is this a fight that is worth risking hurt feelings and further anger?
Ecclesiastes 9:17; "The quiet words of the wise are more to be heeded than the shouts of a ruler of fools."It is time to begin a new cycle. As Christians we are not to use harmful, hurtful words, to anyone. It's time for change, in how we speak to one another. We are called to be like Christ, and this is a great place to start.
~Peace & Blessings~

Oooo! The "hard sayings" of Jesus. No. Just a bit of irony. Just a bit of helpful sarcasm from our Lord favoring our understanding. As one reader put it: "Well… hell!"
Update: In speaking with Father Gordon MacRae about this he told me a story which he often recounts to me whenever I mention my difficulty preaching, bringing the emphasis instead to those who are listening to any homily, putting the preacher in his place.
He said that one day he had laryngitis and could hardly whisper out the Gospel, so he skipped the homily and went right to the offertory, but they couldn't quite hear what he was saying, just assuming he was saying the offertory prayer "Blessed are you Lord God of all creation…"
Instead, while standing now at the altar he was apologizing to the congregation that he had lost his voice and so there would be no homily. Without missing a beat they responded in union: "Blessed by God forever."
That's Father Gordon's commentary on my homilies. Hahaha.
