First of all to aid in your Stihl MS 380 chainsaw switch repairs or servicing work , head over to the manuals section of this website and view or download a free parts list HERE
This clearly shows all the chainsaw components in exploded diagram view along with parts numbers incase you need to buy any parts. View or download the full service manual also to be found in the manuals section under Stihl MS 380 (MS380). Or use the search button at top of page (magnifier icon)
Some handy tips on repairing your Stihl MS 380 chainsaw on off switch worth considering is the function of this switch. The switch works by shorting out the coil to ground, if the switch is not working then you may have a broken wire,defective switch or kill wire may be disconnected at the coil.
Make sure that the connectors on the coil are clean and free of corrosion, it's like a vehicle battery where if you have any corrosion around the metal contacts, it will not make a good electrical contact.

thought for today
When God Calls Your Name
This title comes from the
first chapter of a book by Susan Spalding called An Invitation to Heal.
Susan has been an inspiration in my life, and this book holds some
beautiful, life changing truths.
The book itself is about how to take responsibility for your life, and
for healing those parts of your life that are not working, whether it is
physical or emotional health, or some other area that is begging for change. She shows how your energy anatomy and
physical anatomy are connected to your spiritual self. Through that connection you can heal.
When God calls your
I think we have all
received some kind of call. Susan's
call was to bring a new kind of healing to this planet. That call manifested over many
years. The first time she heard
the call she had no idea where it would lead, or even that there was something
for her to do.
When we receive our own
call we may have to wait for it to come to become more. We might not be ready. The time might not be now. It is a "heads up." Something's coming. If we continue to unconsciously go
along wherever life leads us eventually the call will become something we
cannot resist.
When I was ten I was very
involved in a little church in Alamogordo, New Mexico. I was a champion at learning bible
verses and received an award. But,
for me learning bible verses was not enough. I felt a call I couldn't describe. I was too young to know much about what life would dish out
both wonderful and horrible. I just
knew I wanted to serve in some way.
I sat on a little wall outside my bedroom door and said, "God. I want to be good." It was the best I could do to describe
the longing I felt.
A few days later I felt the
answer in a life altering way. I
was in the little church waiting for the grown-ups to get out of a
meeting. I wandered into the
vestibule and picked up a little brochure. On it was a picture of Jesus with a heart on the outside of
his robes. I had seen this picture
many times, but this time I wondered, "Why did the artist paint the heart on
the outside?"
I put my finger on the
heart. An energy I still cannot
describe flowed from my finger, up through my arm, into my heart, and out into
every cell in my body. It was a
molten stream of golden love.
That's the best I can do to describe it.
I told the adults about it. They didn't understand. Some even thought I was just trying to
get attention. The pastor was one
who said, "Well, isn't this what we all want to feel?" He validated my experience, but
couldn't explain it.
Everyone forgot, including
me! I remembered it years later,
when I knew what it was, and could understand it better. The human brain is wired to forget. We forget the pain of childbirth or a
burned finger because we need to get on with life. We forget about past lives and present grief for the same
reason. I forgot about this
wonderful feeling of liquid love pouring through my veins.
All of life is change. Each
moment is a new moment in your life. You remember when you need to remember.
That call was loaded with
information that changed every atom of my being. It was the first of many.
I have heard that people
who are hit by lightning come back with so much information it takes years to
process. In my case, my life was
the process.
Now that I know better how
to tune into God, I can feel the download. I am getting something that will take a while to know. Maybe I will never know it all with my
mind, but Soul knows. This is how
I work. It is how I try to
live. Physical life always falls a
little short, but we all do the best we can with who we are right now.
My twenty minutes per day
to listen to God is one answer to my ten-year-old self. God isn't as interested in our being
"good" as in our being "aware."
Good follows awareness.
Love follows awareness.
When I wonder about
something, I can sit down and listen for an understanding. I wondered once why God sent Joan of
Arc to this earth-plane to live only sixteen years and then die a lonely death. I sat down and asked. Pages of history began to wash over
me—more history than I ever knew!
A map of Europe and the Americas floated in my vision. I understood that Joan's mission was
known to her where it mattered, as Soul.
As Soul she was not lonely and abused. She knew the difference that her life made. Her life was the turning of a small
screw that set the whole Western world on a different path.
Why was I shown this? Because I asked with no fear, and no strings
attached. And, because Spirit
wanted to show me how It worked, in Joan's life, and in mine.
When I am working on a book
or a scene, I can sit down and listen for a better approach that has more of
the "God-stuff" in it. My mind can
only do so much. It often takes
wrong turns, or lets ego run amuck.
If I sit and let the God-stuff flow through me for a while, I get back
on track.
Susan heard a voice. I felt a feeling. We both received a life-altering connection
to Spirit when God called our names.
When did God call your
name? How did it call your
It will call again when you
and your life are ready.
Bless This Day,

Novela neighbors, the sign for our crossroads is still down as I write this. But Hurricane Irma cleanup in our community is moving forward at a considerable pace. We are hopeful you have received the regular reports from the Master Home Owners Association. This one is meant to circle you in on efforts by our Novela neighborhood board to get us the info we need to make our individual plans of action.
On Monday September 18, Bob Morrison, Mike Burke and Jim Chorley of our board performed a walk around inspection of all 109 homes in Novela. The goal was a basic visual exterior inspection to get the scope of how our individual neighborhood weathered Hurricane Irma.
- Overall: In brief, of the 109 Novela Properties there were only 10 that had no obvious exterior damage (no tree, lanai, roof, or other visible damage). That's 9.1% of homes.
- Lanai Cage damage: Most significant is the lanai cage damage noted. 79 properties had damage — 72.5% of properties. At least 4 lanais were destroyed or suffered frame collapse. Screen loss was the most typical lanai cage damage.
- Roof Tile damage: They observed loose or missing tiles on 55 properties —50.5% of Novela. Roof damage cannot be verified and each homeowner's vendor should arrange for a qualified contractor to inspect their roof.
- Trees: There are 22 trees down or badly damaged in Novela, and debris is also prevalent in streets. At least 4 homes had trees on their homes.
We urge everyone off property to be in contact with his or her homewatch service or some other trusted individual to take photos you may need for insurance considerations.
Mainscape is managing the shrubs and low plants and has done a great job of re-staking smaller trees that were bent but are still healthy. Anchor Tree Service (outside specialist on tree management) is handling the hardwoods and large trees, and most of the large pieces have been removed. Stump grinding management will happen after general cleanup.
Your pool service should make a prudent assessment of how debris may affect filters. Naturally, a lot of stuff has blown into pools that have lost screening.
There are contractors working all over the neighborhood but it's important to make arrangements to "get on the list" for your favored suppliers because there's more work than there are contractors to handle quickly.
Patience and good will serves us all. We in Palmira have done remarkably well given the proximity of the hurricane's path. A ride just a mile down the road will bring into sharp focus that our surrounding community of low-lying homes has experienced devastation. Many with Bonita addresses are currently homeless.
We will recover. Thanks for your part in getting us started.

A tangle of vintage Adidas and spectacular haircuts, Scouse scallywags The Bandits are bound for the big time this year.
Emerging members of what's been dubbed "Cosmic Scouse" scene they acknowledge the usual influences- Love, Captain Beefheart, The Doors et al.
As their name suggests The Bandits see nothing wrong with a little intelligent theft - they'll happily pinch ideas from anyone they admire.
Frank Sinatra, Bobby Gentry and any number of Cajun and Blues artists are also on their hitlist.
The Bandits number six-singer John Robinson, guitarist Gary Murphy,
mop-topped bassist Scott Dulson, lead guitarist Richie Taylor,
keyboard player Tony Dunne and drummer David Sweeney.
And they claim they decided to really give being in a band a go at the Glastonbury Festival three years ago
"A whole load of us went down there" explains guitarist Gary Murphy.
"The four of us were sitting there chilling with a guitar, me John, Scott and Tony and I played them this song that I'd written called Take It And
Run - and somehow we knew the time had come and we just had to do something as a band.
"I think you could say we're interested in unusual rhythms and sounds because they catch your ear.
"When you hear something you're not used, it makes you move and you don't know why-that's I look for I suppose.
"We've always trusted our love of music rather than just listened to the radio. There's hundreds of years of music and the musical history of entire continents to explore so why limit yourself?"
As you might expect, the exact origins of The Bandits' name are shrouded in Liverpool folk-lore.
But from the tender age of 9, Murphy used to hang around the house of his footballing idol Peter Beardsley, who happened to live next door to his gran at the time.
Bemused by this mini-stalker ,often dressed in a cowboy outfit and brandishing a toy gun, Beardsley took to calling Gary `The Bandit'.
The rest, Murphy maintains is history!
Like most of the bands involved in the Liverpool scene's current revival, they've known each other since their relatively recent school days
"There was a whole gang of us who went to school together
at West Derby Comp", Murphy recalls.
"We all started there in 1990 - we'd all had uncles who'd been in bands so the influence to play music was definitely there."
"John Robinson went to John Lennon's old school, but we used to see him around the doors all the time.
"One day we got to jamming old Rolling Stones tunes and John-who was playing bass at the time-suddenly started to sing.
"We were playing The Last Time and he just started - we couldn't
believe it.
"Up until then he'd just been 'quiet John' to us and now here he was
with this incredible voice - and he'd written all these great songs too.
"Everyone was doing their own thing at the time but it was just a matter of bringing us all together - Tony was working in a pub, Scott was deejaying Richie was practising his scales and Sweeney was just doing whatever he does!"
The Bandits had soon set up the now legendary Bandwagon night at Liverpool's Zanzibar Club.
An alternative to Liverpool's dominant dance culture, here it was the club where all 'Cosmic Scouse' scene bands cut their teeth.
The Bandits promptly signed to B-Unique and released acid-blues stomp The Warning.
Having successfully negotiated plum support slots with Oasis, The Libertines and The Vines last year, The Bandits now seem set to take 2003 by storm.
Their new single Once Upon A Time is a cracker, while work on a debut album with the working title A Fistful Of Green is well underway.
"We don't want to just be a Liverpool band - we want to make the album
great so that it can work universally, so the songs speak for themselves", Murphy says.
See for yourselves when The Bandits arrive in the North East next month, for gigs at Middlesbrough Cornerhouse (Saturday, March 22-01642 253 053) and Newcastle Live Theatre (Wednesday March 26- 0191 232 1232).

Louis Agassiz was a scientist who was born in Switzerland, but moved to America where he did most of his work. After his studies he became a professor at Harvard University. He believed that everything could be known through the sciences and that science was the true key to knowledge. He is most well known for disputing Darwins theory of evolution. He believed that according to Darwin's idea that evolution takes millions of years he evidence that evolution had taken place on a relatively new set of islands could not be possible. Agassiz was also a profound racial and believed in white superiority through biological evidence.
I believe one of the main ways Agassiz affected american history was through his support of racial inequality. He was a very smart and reputable man and he was giving people biological evidence that whites were superior to blacks. He was alive during a very delicate racial period and he was fighting for racial inequality with evidence that at the time seemed very strong. Unfortunately for him he was fighting for racial inequality at a time when it was almost indefinite that the blacks would be free.
Agassiz also helped to start the american sciences through education. He was known as an amazing teacher with a booming voice. One of his key beliefs was that all people should learn the sciences even women. By teaching the sciences he made them a more accessible profession. His work also brought more attention to science in America making it a viable profession.

For March 10, 2009
1. Coalition Asks Treasury Secretary to Ease Financial Burden on Military Credit Unions
2. DeCA and AAFES to Continue to Honor CertifiChecks Gift Certificates
3. Scholarships for Computer Literacy Courses
4. VA Announces Pilot Programs to Address Claims Processing
5. Democratic Steering Committee Welcomes Veterans and Military Organizations
6. First Lady Honors Women in the Military and Families
1. Coalition Asks Treasury Secretary to Ease Financial Burden on Military Credit Unions:TheMilitary Coalition (TMC), a consortium of 34 nationally prominentmilitary and veterans associations, sent a letter to the HonorableTimothy Geithner, Secretary of the Treasury Department, asking him totake immediate action to ease a significant financial burden beingimposed on America's military credit unions by the National CreditUnion Administration (NCUA).
A group of 28 "corporate" credit unions (the "credit unions for the7800+ member-based credit unions") invested in mortgage-backedsecurities that ended up getting them into financial trouble. And now,the individual credit unions are being assessed billions of dollars tobail out the corporate ones.
The Coalition argues this poses an unfair penalty on militarymembers and families by robbing essential resources from the roughly 90military credit unions, including some of the world's largest, thatprovide low-cost financial services to military members and familiesaround the world. Credit unions play a crucial role in the militarycommunity by giving hard-pressed families much-needed options forfinancial literacy and alternatives to usurious payday lenders.
The NCUA's unfair requirement would force almost half of allmilitary credit unions into the red, which would mean degradedservices, reduced loan opportunities, reduced savings returns, andhigher loan rates for millions of military families who depend on theirlocal credit unions for essential financial services.
The Coalition asked Secretary Geithner to use the authority of hisoffice to prevent imposing this unfair burden on blameless creditunions and their military family "owners", who already have had to beara grossly disproportional share of national wartime sacrifice. Theyshould not be forced to assume this extra measure of financialsacrifice to bail out other institutions' bad investments.
A further explanation of the dilemma can be found in Tom Philpott's Military Update http://www.military.com/features/0,15240,184923,00.html.
2. DeCA and AAFES to Continue to Honor CertifiChecks Gift Certificates:Due to the current economic downturn, CertifiChecks, Inc., thethird-party provider of commissary gift certificates has ceasedoperations. As a result, all sales of CertifiChecks have halted. TheDefense Commissary Agency (DeCA) will accept outstanding CertifiCheckgift certificates from authorized customers through July 31, 2009.AAFES will also continue to honor CertifiChecks for the foreseeablefuture. In addition, customers with CertifiChecks can submit forpotential reimbursement to: CertifiChecks, Inc., Attn: RedemptionDept., 1435 Shoup Mill Road, Dayton, Ohio, 45414.
When AAFES' troop support initiative, "Gifts from the Homefront,"was initiated nearly six years ago, CertifiChecks allowed moreflexibility than a traditional gift card due to the fact that theycould be redeemed at other exchange systems, regardless of branch ofservice. Today, an AAFES gift card is also accepted at any Navy orMarine exchange, thus making it a more convenient option.
DeCA also entered into an agreement with CertifiChecks, Inc. toprovide gift certificates redeemable in commissaries. Anyone couldpurchase the certificates which ranged from $5 to $100, but onlyauthorized customers could use them. Since 2002, more than $17.5million in gift certificates have been purchased for authorizedcustomers. The certificates have also been a major part of commissaryvendor giveaways at store grand openings and other customer outreachevents.
DeCA says that they will look for an alternative solution to provide commissary gift certificates.
(Sources: http://www.commissaries.com/, DeCA news releases 20-09 & 23-09 and http://www.aafes.com/, AAFES news release 09-012).
3. Scholarships for Computer Literacy Courses:Operation Life Transformed and Military to Medicine are offeringscholarships for introductory computer literacy courses to eligiblemilitary spouses, military members and caregivers caring for injured orwounded service members.All courses are offered online and areself-paced. For more information or to apply for a scholarship, pleasecontact Operation Life Transformed at: firstname.lastname@example.com or visit them online at http://lifetransformed.org/ to fill out an application.
4. VA Announces Pilot Programs to Address Claims Processing:The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is piloting two new programs.The first program involves a comprehensive checklist that lays outinformation and evidence veterans and families need to support theirdisability compensation and pension benefits claims. Four regionaloffices were selected for the pilot. They are: Cleveland, OH; Boise,ID; Waco, TX; and Louisville, KY.
The second pilot program is designed to help reduce the claimsprocessing time. The VA will accept certified, fully developed claimsand place them into a separate process. This alternative process isexpected to provide results within 90 days after the claim wassubmitted. According to the VA, the definition of "fully developed" iswhen the veteran submits a certified statement that he or she does notintend to submit any additional information or evidence in support oftheir claim, and it will not require any assistance. The 10 regionaloffices selected for the one-year pilot are: Montgomery, AL; Columbia,SC; Boston, MA; Manchester, NH; Providence, RI; Chicago, IL; Milwaukee,WI; Boise, ID; Denver CO; and Portland, OR.
5. Democratic Steering Committee Welcomes Veterans and Military Organizations:On March 4thin the Capitol, Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) chaired agathering of Senators and leadership from organizations representingVeterans, Service Members, Families and Survivors. Joined by SenateMajority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV), Senate Armed Services CommitteeChair Carl Levin (D-MI) and Senate Veterans Affairs Committee ChairDaniel Akaka (D-HI) and 16 other Democratic Senators, they spent anhour listening to the concerns of the joined organizations.
Organizations addressed the Post-9/11 GI Bill, VA healthcarefunding, suicide prevention, improved screening processes atdemobilization sites, and survivor benefits.
Senator Richard Durbin (D-IL) spoke of ground breaking caregiverlegislation that he is introducing. Joyce Raezer, Executive Director ofthe National Military Family Association, thanked Senator Durbin forintroducing the legislation that provides training, compensation, andrespite care for caregivers. She spoke of the sacrifices caregiversmake and how this legislation recognizes all that they do. She askedthat the VA create a broader definition of a family support network.There is a shared responsibility between DoD and VA to work thetransition piece so families and vets don't fall through the cracks.The wounded, ill, and injured need benefits through the entire spectrumof wounds and continued oversight by both DoD and VA. She alsoexpressed hope the GI Bill transferability implementation will beconsistent through the Services. There are still a lot of questions tobe answered.
Our Association thanks the Democratic Steering Committee forcreating the opportunity for organizations to elevate their concernsand issues in an informal forum.
6. First Lady Honors Women in the Military and Families:First Lady Michelle Obama addressed a gathering of women who had servedand were still serving in the military to recognize the beginning ofWomen's History Month on March 3rd. The event was held at the Women inMilitary Service for America Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery.Mrs. Obama recognized the contributions of women serving in themilitary from the days of the Revolutionary War to today. She applaudedtheir service to their country, securing our liberty and providing thesecurity that allows us to live in peace and continue with our dailylives. Of special note to the National Military Family Association wereher references to military families.
"Members of the military and their families have a special courageand strength" she said, reminding the group of President Obama'sremarks the week before, when, at Camp Lejeune, he said "Servicedoesn't end with the person wearing the uniform."
"And I have been honored and deeply moved to meet many militaryfamilies over the past couple of years", she continued. "They aremothers and fathers who have lost their beloved children to war. Theyare husbands and wives keeping the family on track while their wivesand husbands are deployed, on duty.They are grandparents, aunts anduncles, sisters and brothers who are taking care of children whilesingle moms or dads in uniform are away".
"See, military families have done their duty, and we as a gratefulnation must do ours. We must do everything in our power to honor themby supporting them; not just by word but by deed", Mrs. Obama concluded.
Our Association thanks Mrs. Obama for spotlighting the service ofour military men and women, and especially the sacrifices and pride oftheir families who also serve.

I hate waiting in rushing games. Waiting to describe the intricacies of areas you have played with hundreds of times. Waiting to be revealed the way the garage programs and update paths operate, or how to get new contract provides, or anything else the programmers have consumed as fabricated explanations to keep you away the monitor. As games have improved -- become complex and more complicated, in addition to become full to the brim that the degree of waiting has improved. In some games the waiting is worthwhile. Not in mind, most. The pacing of Forza Horizon and the way it deftly dishes outside cars, races and magnificent showcase events is your very best illustration of it in current racers.
V-Rally 4 is not a match. Despite the fact that you do find racer DNA's sparks emerge from under its bonnet, it is largely a inconsistent rally sport which never reaches, let alone surpasses, its contemporaries. Its livelihood is a slog full of progressions through provides and contracts you don't care about. Its very first race is point-to-point taster session during the slopes of Kenya, a piece, until you are thrust right into -- you guessed it -- a conveyor belt of tutorials that are dull contracts, about events and much more.
V-Rally 4 is a racing game, the fourth title in the V-Rally series, developed by Kylotonn and published by Bigben Interactive. It was released in September 2018 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, and will be released later in the year for Nintendo Switch.
'Here is how a contract is accepted by you, here is how you pick your next occasion' It's workmanlike and entirely uninspired from Playground Games' aforementioned romp's pizzazz. It improves, possibly, and all curiosity shut off . Rather, I chose, I'd heap my time to the match's free race mode, which allow me sideline some dull, elongated feeling of progress and rather hit the trail in my own pace -- the places, paths, along with cars that I wanted. The game actually does hit on a stride once you think about the assortment of places available, in Malaysia's mountains .
The visage is merely, although it really can look the part, also. V-Rally 4 straddles a difference between ugliness; filled with scenery and jagged edges; before bringing some standout attractiveness together with sufficient blossom and surroundings effects. Its circuits are literary meaning there are no limitations set up when creating each class -- precision is sacrificed in favour of spectacle. On balance, it is well worth the toss-up. As it comes to vibe to start looking for the contrast to V-Rally 4, you have got around Codemasters' Dirt show just a bit to simply hop. It seems as though it is attempting to be . The prior -- with rally-cross, rally and hill-climb's events station it down a path in the past, saythe absurdist sports bro-ness of the Gymkhana occasions of this game.
Running is a affair but it does the work also, sometimes, provides some racing that is . During my initial taster session at Kenya, I royally screwed up everything by piling into a off-track scenery on over 1 event, but it did not take long until I realised that I had been in Dirt style and needed to readjust to play the game as planned. The managing version here can be as unforgiving as if you are racing with the, Dirt Rally assists off, but in various ways. Automobiles do not feel as significant as in Codemasters' matches, so the analog sticks have to be treated to keep the car.
That takes a while to work toward having the ability to handle at high rates, and I am unsure it is 4 very nailed by V-Rally . The outcome is a nervousness into you as a racer, as well as the auto, and I never felt as though I had charge of the motor vehicle. Point to point is your attention, and it is absolutely the perfect way with. Do the circuits that are literary provide sights and thrills however you do not need to manage the lacklustre AI, that can be too noticeable when enjoying with the rallycross manners of the game.
There is also an overall lack of gloss your co-driver's class notes there hoping utilizing the view, and do not feel in situ whatsoever. It is naff. The wait because V-Rally 3 is it, although it is not that V-Rally 4 is bad. The benchmarks set by automatically complicated, glistening, spectacular or enjoyable racing games out of arcade and sim camps are not surpassed by any component of the experience. In contrast to the Dirt 4, V-Rally 4 feels as though it is missing over a few suggestions.

Richmond County, GA (WFXG) - Every week FOX 54 celebrates the best of what our future has in store – our children.
Kevin Wang, a 12th grade student at Davidson school of Fine arts, has found a way to use technology to create art in a unique way. He's this week's "High 5 4 Kids" honoree.
You might already have an image in your mind when you think of a violin, but Kevin Wang has reimagined it. The 17-year-old helped create a variety of 3D printed instruments after winning a grant at a hackathon.
"The goal in general was to make people more aware of 3D printing by linking it with music, and also showcasing it to various students by having them perform," Wang said.
He said 3D printing offers solutions – like provide support for a person with a longer neck, thereby widening the scope of people who might be interested in making music.
"3D printing is the promise of customizability for every person as long as they know the software," Wang said.
"Kevin is amazing," his orchestra instructor, Laura Tomlin, said. "He will set his mind to learning something, and learn everything there is to learn about it, and then take it to the next level. He did that with the violin. He's actually a pianist and about a year and a half ago he said 'I want to learn the violin,' so he started on his own in the spring, and then by fall he was in orchestra."
Linking his love for art, design and engineering on his learning journey, Wang said he's grateful for all those who've invested in him.
"I would like to think Bill Gray, and David Gray, and the clubhouse, and the people at my school who have supported me with this - because no engineer works alone," he said.
"Sky's the limit for him, I think. He's a brilliant kid," Tomlin said.

9 Reasons You Should Rethink Cutting Layers into Your Hair 💇🏼💇🏿💇🏻💇🏽 ...
Everyone told me how wonderful layers were, but I quickly found out why you shouldn't get layers in your hair. Layered hair looks great on some people, but I discovered they weren't for me. In fact, many women come to the same conclusion. It's a hard lesson to learn, but if you understand why you shouldn't get layers, you might not have to make the same mistake I did.
1. Too Full or Flat
Layers are designed to help thin out excess thickness or help boost volume, depending on the fullness and thickness of your hair. I wanted the extra volume. My first clue as to why you shouldn't get layers was how quickly my hair fell flat after I got my cut. The stylist did a wonderful job and it looked perfect when I left the salon. After the first wash, I never quite got the same fullness. I've discovered that some women have the opposite problem and get an unwelcome poof of volume.

Sheyi Ojo delighted to star on Fulham return
Anglo-Nigerian Sheyi Ojo is happy to be back in action for Fulham after a late recovery from a swollen ankle.
The striker, on loan from Liverpool, was on hand to help Slavisa Jokanovic's men secure their second win in the English Championship with a 2-1 victory over Hull City on Wednesday.
Ojo was instrumental to the first goal of the outing as his sublime pass found Floyd Ayite and the Togo international wasted no time in finding the net.
Editors' Picks
Jarrod Bowen restored parity for the Tigers but it was short lived as Stefan Johansen sealed the victory for the Craven Cottage's outfit two minutes after the hour mark.
The winger then took to the social media to express his delight at the outcome of the game.
"Big win today, happy to be back playing and contribute with an assist. More hard work to come. Thanks to all our fans tonight," Ojo tweeted.

Why do people feel the need to give the entire world information about their crazy sexual antics while commenting on something that has absolutely nothing to do with their rough sex? I see this a lot in a lot of different places and sometimes it's completely inappropriate. I just don't want to scroll past that kind of stuff while reading about rape.
Also, it might be too late, but if you want, you can just read the first sentence and then the one following this one. Why do people do this? I don't get it and I just want to understand it so that I don't secretly judge them.
ETA: I completely forgot a link. The comment that led me to do this is on the mainpage and I don't exactly know how to link to a specific comment. Plus I didn't want to seem rude.

Motivation is important if you want to reach a fitness or weight loss goal.
Motivation is your "why" – the thing that drives you to do what needs to be done, even on days where you'd rather not.
Willpower, in contrast, if your ability to stick to the straight and narrow path.
Motivation gets you up and moving but it's willpower keeps you at it, making the right decisions and staying on task.
Although they are different, motivation and willpower are inextricably linked but without motivation, your willpower will have no real direction.
Unfortunately, motivation sometimes just ups and vanishes.
This can happen to anyone – even Olympic athletes.
You wake up and, for no discernable reason, you just feel "bleh" and have a bad dose of the can't be bothered blues.
This might last a day or a week but could last much longer too.
Whether your motivation is taking a temporary sabbatical or has gone completely AWOL, here are FOUR ways to get yourself back on track.
1. Take a Break
If you've been following your fitness or healthy eating path for a long time, you may well be experiencing a little "burn out" and that is what has undermined your motivation.
When you started out, your motivation levels were probably higher, as is often the case whenever you take on a new project or challenge.
However, as novelty turns into routine, your motivation can take a hit.
Doing more of the same won't help – when the horse is dead it doesn't matter how big a stick you beat it with.
Instead of continuing your downward motivational spiral, give yourself permission to take a break.
A break will give you time to recharge your motivation and get your mojo back.
Bear in mind this is a break – a brief vacation – not the end of the journey.
Give yourself a week or two to get yourself back on track and then return to your mission with recharged enthusiasm.
What should you do during your break?
That's a good question and we've got the answers for you in the next points!
2. Make a New Plan
If you took tip one to heart, you'll need this tip too.
After your break, make a new plan for whatever you are trying to achieve.
If you are working toward weight loss, plan a new menu and include some new meals to liven up your diet.
If you want to get fit, create a new workout routine and include some different exercises and workout methods.
Going back the plan that broke your motivation in the first place makes no sense; if it didn't work then, it's unlikely to work now.
A new plan could be exactly what you need to restart your motivation and progress.
If your new plan does not fire your motivation, you need a different one.
Look for fun and exciting ways to reach your weight loss and fitness goals and make sure you include options to modify your program should you experience another drop in motivation.
3. Create a Supportive Environment
Even the best plan in the world will not work if you cannot stick to it.
There are lots of reasons that you may find it hard to stick to your plan but many of these barriers can be overcome with a strong supportive environment.
When you are designing your new plan, make sure you consider what support is currently available and look for ways to increase it.
For example:
· Hire a personal trainer to help you with your workouts
· Buy a food tracking app and use it to record your meals
· Join a weight loss club
· Make a weight loss bet with a friend
· Start a support page on Facebook
· Create a weight loss group amongst your friends
· Hire a nutrition coach to help you with your diet
· Ask your significant other to come to the gym with you and eat more healthily
Anything you can do that will safeguard your motivation will help keep you on the straight and narrow.
When it comes to support, it's always better to have more than you need than less than you want.
4. Envision Your Success If You Do, and Your Regret If You Don't
How do you want to look and feel a year from now?
Slimmer, healthier, more energetic?
Now take a moment to visualize that new you.
See yourself looking healthy, being happy, and feeling accomplished.
That could be you if you stick to the plan!
Now, envision how you'll look and feel if you don't carry out your plan.
Here's a hint: it'll be the same as you are now.
Are you really going to be happy looking the same and feeling the same as you do now or do you want to forge a new, happier, healthier you?
Visualizing the new you should help keep your motivation levels on the up and up.
Visualize the new you often to make the most of this powerful tip.
The next time you feel your motivation starting to wane, make sure you mediate on what you are trying to achieve (the new you) and what you are trying to leave behind (the old you).
It's natural to experience motivational highs and lows – you can't expect to feel 100% 24/7/365.
Accept that motivation can dip as well as climb and use these tips and tricks anytime you feel your motivation needs a boost.

Victoria, Australia– The Assyrian Australian Social Development Club Inc. (AASDC) hosted their first annual Assyrian Graduation Ceremony on Sunday, Jan. 13. The program recognized over 25 student graduates from several schools and universities in the area.
The program, held at Mona Lisa Reception, included an awards presentation, speeches, poetry, and musical performances by members and friends of the Assyrian community in Victoria.
The ceremony was welcomed by AASDC members Khoshaba Youkhanna and Sidory Younan. Local government representatives also said a few words, including Victoria Multicultural Commissioner Sam Almaliki and Cr Joseph Haweil of the Hume City Council.
"In my remarks on the night, I referred to Nelson Mandela's powerful words: 'Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world', encouraging the graduates to pursue their dreams and make great contributions to Australia and the world," Haweil wrote in a post after the event.
AASDC Management Board member and Community Support Worker Kinda Haroun spoke to those in attendance about the importance of creative and meaningful events in the community and a particular need in our Assyrian Australian community for projects that support education and give students every chance to succeed in their future.
A monodrama titled 'The Survivors' was created for the event by AASDC youth group members in recognition of the plight of many of the graduates or their family members who overcame challenges to arrive to Australia. In a note after the event, the youth group thanked Assyrian writer Abdel Abdel for writing the monodrama's final message.
A number of local Assyrian organizations supported the event including the Australian Assyrian Art and Literature Foundation, the Assyrian Council of Victoria, Assyrian Levies, Beth Nahrain Cultural Club, Agha Petrus Association, Victorian Assyrian Community, Abnaa Al-Nahrain Party, Assyrian Church of the East, Assyrian Democratic Party, Assyrian Democratic Organisation, Assyrian Democratic Movement, Moreland United Soccer Club, and the Assyrian General Conference.
AASDC is a non-profit established in 2012 that works to empower and provide ongoing support and skills development to members of the Assyrian community in Victoria, Australia. The organization has put on a number of programs and events for the community including Christmas and Martyr's Day celebrations.

JRW launches letter-writing campaign to restore title
CHICAGO – Members of the Jackie Robinson West All Stars baseball team are campaigning to get their title back.
The team asked the congregation at Father Michael Pfleger's Saint Sabina Church to write letters to Little League International, requesting that their title be restored. It was revoked last month because of boundary violations.
Pfleger said what happened to the team was an incidence of racism.
He distributed pre-printed letters to church members during the offering.

Strength in Unity Article
Strength in Unity Awards Banquet On November 15, the Hispanic National Law Enforcement Association (HNLEA), and the United Black Police Officers' Association (UBPOA) held the annual Strength in Unity Awards banquet. The consistent theme expressed throughout the event was the need for us all to "strive to appreciate culture and diversity through unity." A number of influential speakers expressed that same desire for each of their respective law enforcement agencies.Richard Rosa, 4th Vice President of the Hispanic American Police Command Officers Association (HAPCOA) was quoted, "when speaking of diversity, you must also mention inclusion." In addition, Mark Magaw, Chief of the Prince George's County Police Department, was quoted as saying, "This is what makes us better." Tony Chapa, HAPCOA Executive Director, gave the keynote speech that emphasized interconnected values and our reliance on each other. Attendees of all backgrounds connected with his ideas and vision for the future. He explained that HAPCOA is the nation's oldest Latino law enforcement organization. Tony showed HAPCOA's 40th Anniversary video and introduced HAPCOA's National Capitol Region chapter. He left us with these inspiring words:"Our motto at HAPCOA is 'Power in Unity for the Common Good.' As such, together we can better serve our departments and our communities. But only if we work together can we truly empower the future of law enforcement which, now more than ever, requires our vision, our inclusion, and your leadership." Mr. Chapa was presented with an award of Special Recognition for his support to the cause of diversity in law enforcement. In addition, a number of other honorary awards were presented throughout the event. The President's Award was presented to Oscar Rodriguez Jr, Secretary of HAPCOA's National Capitol Region; the Lifetime Achievement Award was presented to Cesar Pacheco, Vice President of HAPCOA's National Capitol Region chapter; Leadership Awards were given to both Richard Rosa and Tony Chapa "in appreciation for their leadership and support". The gala concluded with 350 attendees representing multiple law enforcement agencies, civic associations, public institutions, and community leaders enjoying company and comradery. Xavier Morales, National President of HAPCOA and Manny Ovalle, Director at Large were present to support the event. The night was a huge success.There is more Strength in Unity than division.Where there is Unity, there is always success.
HAPCOA, the Hispanic American Police Command Officers Association, established in 1973, is the oldest and largest association in the U.S. of Hispanic American command officers from law enforcement and criminal justice agencies at the municipal, county, state and federal levels.

U.S. v. Bull, 15 Phil. 7
G.R. No. L-5270 January 15, 1910
Lessons Applicable: Applicability of Provision
Laws Applicable: Art. 2 RPC
• accused H. N. Bull, master of vessel, willfully, unlawfully, and wrongly carry, transport, and bring into the port and city of Manila, aboard said vessel, from the port of Ampieng, Formosa, 677 head of cattle and carabaos, without providing suitable means for securing the animals while in transit, so as to avoid cruelty and unnecessary suffering.
• animals to be tied by means of rings passed through their noses, and allow and permit others to be transported loose in the hold and on the deck of said vessel without being tied or secured in stalls, and all without bedding
• neglect and failure of the accused to provide suitable means for securing said animals while so in transit, the noses of some of said animals were cruelly torn, and many of said animals were tossed about upon the decks and hold of said vessel, and cruelly wounded, bruised, and killed.
• All contrary to the provisions of Acts No. 55 and No. 275 of the Philippine Commission.
Section 1 of Act No. 55, which went into effect January 1, 1901, provides that —
The owners or masters of steam, sailing, or other vessels, carrying or transporting cattle,
sheep, swine, or other animals, from one port in the Philippine Islands to another, or from
any foreign port to any port within the Philippine Islands, shall carry with them, upon the
vessels carrying such animals, sufficient forage and fresh water to provide for the suitable
sustenance of such animals during the ordinary period occupied by the vessel in passage from
the port of shipment to the port of debarkation, and shall cause such animals to be provided
with adequate forage and fresh water at least once in every twenty-four hours from the time
that the animals are embarked to the time of their final debarkation.
• Bull(Norweigan): Norwegian vessel, and it is conceded that it was not registered or licensed in the Philippine Islands under the laws thereof so it is not within the jurisdiction of the Philippines
ISSUE: W/N the court had jurisdiction over an offense of this character when the neglect and omission which constitutes the offense continued during the time the ship was within the territorial waters of the United States
HELD: The defendant was found guilty
• No court of the Philippine Islands had jurisdiction over an offenses or crime committed on the high seas or within the territorial waters of any other country, but when she came within 3 miles of a line drawn from the headlines which embrace the entrance to Manila Bay, she was within territorial waters, and a new set of principles became applicable.
Note: when it comes in our territory it has the discretion to prosecute or not.
If it choose to prosecute must be justified.
• 2 well-defined theories as to extent of the immunities ordinarily granted to them
1. French theory and practice-matters happening on board a merchant ship which do not concern the tranquillity of the port or persons foreign to the crew, are justiciable only by the court of the country to which the vessel belongs. The French courts therefore claim exclusive jurisdiction over crimes committed on board French merchant vessels in foreign ports by one member of the crew against another.
2. The United States has adhered consistently to the view that when a merchant vessel enters a foreign port it is subject to the jurisdiction of the local authorities, unless the local sovereignty has by act of acquiescence or through treaty arrangements consented to waive a portion of such jurisdiction.
• The disembarkation of the animals is not necessary in order to constitute the completed offense, and a reasonable construction of the language of the statute confers jurisdiction upon the court sitting at the port into which the animals are bought. They are then within the territorial jurisdiction of the court, and the mere fact of their disembarkation is immaterial so far as jurisdiction is concerned.
• The appellant contends that the language of the Spanish text of the information does not charge him with failure to provide "sufficient" and "adequate" means. The words used are "medios suficientes" and "medios adecuados." In view of the fact that the original complaint was prepared in English, and that the word "suitable" is translatable by the words "adecuado," "suficiente," and "conveniente," according to the context and circumstances, we determine this point against the appellant, particularly in view of the fact that the objection was not made in the court below, and that the evidence clearly shows a failure to provide "suitable means for the protection of the animals."

Nortec Electric offers these services: electrician.

Lawyers perspective-re:proper perspective.
: Interesting thought Drew. In the province of Ontario, contractors can place a lien on a home for $60 and are not required to provide evidence of lien validity. In essence, they can hold a home owner ransom, impairing their ability to sell or refinance their home. Would you be willing to risk your electrical work to an electrician who has a documented history of this activity? My advice, always use ESA authorized contractors, you can find these legitimate electricians on the ESA website. They have something to lose.
Rated 1 stars by Mike on September 29, 2009
proper perspective
: Christien, I can appreciate how your friend feels, but wonder and must ask. Have you heard both sides ot this situation?
Rated 1 stars by Drew on September 23, 2009
Ron Malachowski from Nortec cannot be trusted.
: Contract said $7000-$10000 to replace K&T wiring and bring entire house to code. This cost is within what was to be expected based on several discussions with electricians.
 Our contractor said he was a complainer on the job, smoked in the house and when we were on vacation he refused to let anyone in the house while he was working. My contractor was delayed by at least 2 weeks because of this.
 Two days before we were to move in, Ron cuts the power off and refuses to answer his phone. The hydro company would not turn it back on, only if the permit holder calls. We had to hire another electrician to pull a permit to finish the job so we could get our flooring laid and move in! . Ron left an invoice in our house for $27,000! Within 1 week of receiving the invoice we got a letter from his lawyer, he had placed construction lien on our house! We believe that we will win if it goes to court but until then we have a lien on our property and have to pay lawyers fees. On top of it all, he left a ton of trash (and cigarette butts) in the house and we had to change all the locks because he did not return his keys
 Ron from Nortec is a thief and will rob you blind. His work is sub-par and he cuts corners everywhere. ESA is only interested in fire hazards but do not care about all the c@!%!y finishes that are done. The homeowner on the other hand is interested in safety and appearances. Ron knows the exact minimum required to keep his license and get hired by unsuspecting victims.
 Do not hire this person unless you want to get ripped off and have a lien placed on your property before you even have a chance to pay.

Nortec Electric Tries to Rip Customers Off
: Be very weary if you choose to do business with this company. A friend used this company and signed a contract to have some major electrical work done. The company never completed the job. A final invoice was sent to my friends which demanded almost 3 times the original agreed price and also put a lean on their property for failure to pay. They are now dealing with a lawyer.
 Please take careful consideration before choosing this electrical company. I would hate to see anyone else taken advantage of.

Offside rule confusing, admits Reading boss McDermott
READING boss Brian McDermott admitted after his side's controversial win over Millwall that even he doesn't fully understand the offside rule.
With the Lions' defence waiting for the linesman's flag, Adam Le Fondre tapped home the winner for the Royals fifteen minutes from time as the Championship's in-form team won their sixth game on the spin.
And while replays show that despite being initially offside, Le Fondre was indeed onside when he put the ball in the back of the net, McDermott conceded the rules are confusing.
"I still don't understand the rule to be honest," he told the club's official website.
"I think Robbo [Jason Roberts] was onside and Alfie was offside when it was played…and then Alfie goes in the box and is onside when he scores.
"I knew that was going to be a different kind of game to the ones we've had in the last two games against Burnley and Middlesbrough.
"I watched their game at Burnley, they were very good and made it difficult for Burnley – so to come here today, off the back of their result, it's a fantastic result for us.
"It might not have been the best-looking game to watch but, for me, it was a fantastic performance on a tough pitch to play on."

England take on Croatia in the 2018 World Cup semi-final on Wednesday evening at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow.
The last time Croatia made this stage of the tournament was back in 1998, England meanwhile have not reached the semi-final of a World Cup since 1990.
This will be the eighth meeting between these two sides, Croatia have beat England just once, drawing two and losing four.
The Croatia defender has struck up an impressive partnership with Dejan Lovren and started all but one game.
Vida scored in the quarter-final against Russia in extra-time and converted his penalty in the shootout.
Vida is almost certain to start against England despite being involved in a controversial pro-Ukraine video.
FIFA outlaws political statements and said it had issued Vida with a warning after a video published online following Croatia's win versus hosts Russia.
In the clip Vida, who used to play for Dynamo Kiev, said: "Glory to Ukraine!"

Hi everyone!
Astrologists say that people born on Mondays have the psychic ability to understand others — making them better able to see what's next.
Executive coaches say Monday is the most productive day of the week, since it represents a fresh start and an opportunity to set and achieve new goals.
Scientists have offered seven reasons why the "Monday Blues" might be a real thing — using data to back up the belief held by many that Monday is the most dreaded day of the week.
I wasn't born on a Monday, nor do I think it's the worst day of the week — well, most of the time, anyway. But I do think it's the right day to reflect on the week that we just left behind as a way to move, clear-eyed, into the week that's yet to come.
That's why I chose Mondays to publish my weekly perspective on all things payments and commerce: to start a conversation about the moves — and the movers and shakers making them — and the transformation that is unfolding right before our very eyes.
52 Mondays 2018 is the second annual edition of those columns, which offer a play-by-play perspective on the developments in the most dynamic ecosystem in the world. They are presented in the order published, giving you, more or less, a mini payments and commerce time capsule for 2018.
I am pleased to share this collection with you — and hope you enjoy the look back, as we all prepare to look ahead to what's next in 2019.
Until next Monday.
Latest Insights:
Our data and analytics team has developed a number of creative methodologies and frameworks that measure and benchmark the innovation that's reshaping the payments and commerce ecosystem. In the December 2019 Mobile Card App Adoption Study, PYMNTS surveyed 2,000 U.S. consumers for a reveal of the four most compelling features apps must have to engage users and drive greater adoption.

We've written previously about the issues of underpayment and employment law compliance which have come to light at 7-Eleven (Franchisee underpayments and the supply chain and 7-Eleven and award and immigration compliance) and investigations in other franchises such as Caltex and Dominos. Now, the Federal Government is proposing legislation to attack the problem at a higher level, by making the franchisor liable for the sins of the franchisee in some circumstances.
The proposed legislation implements the Coalition's election promise to take strong action to curb the exploitation of workers on limited visas or without a visa at all in franchises such as 7-Eleven. The Bill is before Parliament, and you would expect it to pass, as the ALP and the minor parties in the Senate are likely to be in favour.
The purpose of the legislation is to overcome the enforcement problem implicit in the franchise model: each franchisee is running, and is responsible for, its own business, and is a legal entity separate from the franchisor and its related companies. So, an offence occurring in the operation of a franchisee's business will be its legal responsibility, but not the legal responsibility of the franchisor. Of course, from a media perspective, the distinction is often ignored, and the headline will be the franchise name, not the name of the individual franchisee but legally, the entities, and therefore the respective legal situations, are distinct.
While the Fair Work Ombudsman has become increasingly bold, and successful, in seeking penalties from parties beyond the immediate legal entity (such as directors and officers and other advisers "knowingly involved" in contraventions), it is still difficult in a legal sense (an exception rather than the rule) to fix liability on corporate entities higher up the franchise chain. When Yogurberry was held liable for knowingly being involved in infractions at a franchisee's store in November last year, and fined $146,000, that was a significant step, and could happen again as the law stands. However, the Federal Government's proposed legislation will put a stronger basis under this sort of claim, and make it a top-of-mind issue for franchisors, rather than a relatively unlikely legal risk.
The new legislation, the Fair Work Amendment (Protecting Vulnerable Workers) Bill will make a franchisor liable for underpayments by franchisees or subsidiaries, when they knew, or ought to have known, of the contravention, and failed to take reasonable steps to prevent it. The changes will also increase penalties 10-fold (up to $108,000 for individuals and $540,000 for companies) for "serious contraventions."
Unpacking that:
It follows from these points that it will not be enough to have contractual provisions requiring compliance with workplace laws, and leave it at that. The smart franchisor will have due diligence systems in place to monitor franchisee compliance, and use them, taking action where the rules are broken.

For most of my life, my relationship with God has centered on a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and personal experiences of the Holy Spirit. Lately, I have been led to a greater understanding of God the Father and now, as we approach Christmas, of the Christ Child.
My son gave me a hug this morning and nearly knocked me down with affection. Did Jesus hug Mary this way? I think, he did.
Both of my children know the best way to get my attention when I am busy is to say, "Mom," wait until I look at them and say, "I love you." How often did Jesus say this to Mary and did her heart melt as mine does each time? I think, very often and yes.
My daughter, after eating two portions of dinner last night, being told there was no dessert that day, and being asked if she had room for any more food, said, "I think there is room for, not a chocolate coin, but something the size of a chocolate coin." Was the child Jesus's sense of humor that adorable? I think, absolutely.
Today, when you look at your children, picture the Christ Child. The Master of All Creation came to redeem us as a tiny baby, a small child, a growing boy, and a young man before He spent three short years as a man teaching and preaching. In this simplicity and humility, He showed us His love.
Prepare your hearts. Make room. A Child is to be born!
