I recently bumped into an old colleague and we've been text-flirting most days. We had one date and he couldn't keep his hands off me – I was turned on, too. But he made it clear all he wants is sex – and I want more. Do you think he might change his mind if we spend more time together?
First, consider his history – is he or has he recently been seriously involved? If so, your heartbreak risk increases about 50%. If he's a free agent – and not a mindless sex-machine – he also runs the risk of starting to care more than he expected to. So if you decide to go down this road, take care. Don't give too much of yourself. Remember the real hazard comes not from him but from your own haste and uncontrolled hope.

A LIFE-LONG LEARNER who: demonstrates learning in different ways There are many alternatives to Catholic education, but there is no substitute -Most Rev. Roger J. Foys, Bishop of Covington Dear SJM Families, TAKE THE SURVEY: HAIRCUTS: Please be cautious about the boys' haircuts. No sculptured or faddish cuts. Thanks for respecting off the collar, off the ears, out of the eyes and no extreme hair styles. DEADLINE: The deadline for applying for financial aid is June 10. If you are in a better position and do not need aid, we are happy to hear that. If you have a need, you must apply to be considered. Apply online with FACTS Grant & Aid. Put yourself in the best possible position to qualify for registration and aid by bringing your account up to date before you apply. Children of Catholic education are an unquestioned success story. God bless you for your commitment to Catholic education. You are a part of a very special legacy at St. Justin Martyr School. We want you in our future. WAY TO GO SECOND GRADE: Good luck on your First Communion Day Saturday, May 13. FAITH FACT: The Ascension of the Lord – Ascension is the bodily ascension of Jesus into heaven. Ascension Thursday always falls 40 days after Easter (counting both Easter and Ascension Thursday), but since the date of Easter changes every year, the date of Ascension does as well. In some dioceses (ecclesiastical provinces) of the U.S., celebration of the Ascension has been moved to the following Sunday. Unlike the Gregorian calendar (what we use), the Julian calendar celebrates Ascension on a different date from Catholics. This date can be calculated by adding five weeks and four days to the date of Eastern Orthodox Easter. Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.

This is a guest post by Ari Herstand, author of How to Make It in the New Music Business and originally appeared on Ari's Take.
A friend of mine with a good following in LA just told me how she showed up to her show last night only to find out that the venue had canceled it without her knowledge. Another touring artist I know discovered just two days before her LA stop that the promoter had a miscommunication with the venue and double booked the night with a wedding (after selling 200 advance tickets online).
I can't tell you how many horror stories I've heard (and experienced) where the venue and artist were on two completely separate pages about the show's details – and sometimes two completely separate calendars.
How do you prevent these catastrophes from happening? Advance the show!

Rusty BurfordFort Worth, TX '30 Ford Model A Roadster & '31 Ford Model A CoupeAnother rodder who just can't get enough of the open highway is Rusty Burford who has traveled all the way to Paso Robles, California, and to Bowling Green, Kentucky, stacking up more than 15,000 miles along the way in the last two years. Rusty got his start with his '31 Model A coupe he found locally as a true '50s survivor. He completely went through the car, making all the components reliable and safe with an early 283 topped by a Tri-power followed by a Muncie four-speed and a '57 Chevy rearend. The car proved to be a lot of fun but was sold and Rusty picked up his new ride, a '30 Model A roadster, as a body in Missouri. The frame was built in the shop behind his house and into it went a '62 Buick 401ci Nailhead topped by a Tri-power and backed by a Muncie four-speed and a 9-inch rearend. Rusty recycled some old hot rod parts like an original Mor-Drop axle and a pair of split '34 Ford wishbones and also hand-fabricated many parts himself. Still a work in progress, Rusty enjoys cruising in his ride while he makes further refinements.
Brian GannonFloral Park, NY'62 RamblerBrian Gannon has put together one very beautiful and equally innovative ride with his '62 Rambler wagon, built at his shop, Grandma's Garage, in Queens, New York. Highlights of this beauty include a fuel-injected Corvette LT1 engine, 700-R4 overdrive trans, and 9-inch Ford rearend, all connected to a custom 2×3-inch frame. Tons of custom bodywork, both inside and out, as well as underneath, was completed before the GM Ivy Green pant was sprayed. Inside, a '32 Ford dash and a triple-tone interior made up of pleather, fake ostrich, and genuine suede makes things pop. Outside, the mono theme gets a solid dash of flash from a set of 17-inch PS Engineering kidney bean wheels.
Steve TsangEdmonton, Alberta, Canada'30 Ford Model A SedanSteve Tsang acquired his '30 Model A sedan in a trade for his '58 Ford Custom 300 sedan. Sean Manness originally built the car in Selkirk, Manitoba, using and original Canadian-built body. It was set up as a gas-sipping daily driver with a four-cylinder engine and five-speed transmission from a 1990 Ford Mustang that Steve loves. Originally wearing fenders when Steve first took over ownership, the sedan has slowly been transformed into his own vision of a perfect hot rod as a '50s-styled highboy. Vitals include a '57 F-100 steering box, '50 Pontiac taillights, green and white upholstery, '65 Chrysler 300 steering wheel, 15×4 Dodge space-saver spare rims up front with 5.60×15 Firestone wide whites, 15×5 '55 Ford rims on the rear mounted up with a pair of Hurst pie-crust slicks, repop Fiesta hubcaps, and a Vintage Air heater because, Steve says, it does indeed get very cold up in Canada during the winter and he does drive the car all year round.

Round Valley reservoir is a crystal clear, 160 ft. deep impoundment that makes a wonderful place to paddle. It's 3 miles across and about 2 1/2 miles wide and the centerpiece of Round Valley State Park. Motor boats are allowed, but there is a 10 horsepower maximum, so paddlers needn't worry about dodging water skiers and jet skis.
Though it's flatwater I rated the difficulty moderate because of the waves that can build on a windy day.
My wife and I decided to take advantage of this gem of a place and spend Memorial Day weekend camping, hiking, paddling and fishing.
We put in around 4:30 on Saturday under darkening skies and the sound of distant thunder. We decided rather than making a bee-line across the water to our campsite, we'd head for the far shore so we had a short paddle to safety in the event a thunderstorm forced us off the water. We were paddling into a pretty brisk breeze and would take a little water when we hit a wave the wrong way, but we reached our destination in about an hour and a half.
After setting up our camp and finishing dinner, we spent the rest of the evening watching a number of thunderstorms pass by in the distance. After my wife retired for the night I broke out my fishing rod and using a popper I proceeded to catch 6 small rock bass in about a half hour.
A dense fog greeted us Sunday morning. I took the canoe out for a paddle and brought along my fishing rod. I could actually see numerous good sized bass hugging the bottom in about 25 feet of water, but I didn't have any lures that would reach down that far, having brought mostly surface lures along. The fog was thick enough that I lost sight of the shore and became disoriented, but I had the foresight to take the GPS with me and found my way back to camp easily.
After a fruitless hour and a half with rod and reel I made it back to camp to greet my wife who was just waking up. We lounged around the camp all morning, catching up on our reading. After lunch we decided to combine a hike and geocache hunt.
A 9 mile hiking trail circles most of the reservoir, but doesn't completely circumnavigate it. The trail dead ends at a restricted area, so hikers have to return the way they came. We selected a geocache that was over a mile away and headed off find it. Along the way the sole of my 15 year old hiking boot came off, so we had to cut our planned 5 mile hike short and return to camp once we found the geocache. Still it was a nice walk through a pretty area.
It was now late afternoon and the thunderheads were building and we began to experience a repeat of the previous evening with the T-storms were passing to the north and south of us. Odds were that we couldn't dodge them forever though, and sure enough we soon noticed the tell-tale cloud heading directly toward us. I pulled the canoe farther up the beach and flipped it over, which turned out to be a smart move. The wind was picking up we started securing whatever might blow away and putting anything that shouldn't get wet into dry bags.
The storm hit and what a storm it was. The wind gusts were easily topping 50 MPH and the reservoir that was placid moments earlier, was showing whitecaps on top of 2 - 3ft. high waves. The beach where my canoe had been was under water and the waves were pounding the shore. Lightning was striking all around. It gave me an inkling of what it might have been like sitting in a trench and getting shelled on a WW2 battlefield. The realization that my tent poles were aluminum didn't help my anxiety any, though my wife just sat there unconcerned, quietly eating her dinner.
After the main storm passed there was a light drizzle left in its wake, but we had pitched a tarp and sat under it watching the sun set in a glorious, bright red sky.
Monday dawned crisp and clear. I took the canoe out for a short paddle and did some half-hearted casting, then returned to camp for a breakfast of grilled Spam and polenta with melted cheddar - an odd, but strangely satisfying combination.
We then packed up the camp, loaded the canoe and made a leisurely paddle back to he launch, hugging the shore line most of the way. At one point we spied a huge trout (brown I believe) prowling the shallows. The water is so clear we could see it from quite a distance. I tried casting several different plugs and spinners its way, but it ignored them all. I rigged my fly rod, but by the time I could get it ready the fish was out of sight.
After a quick stop to bag another geocache along the shore we continued our paddle, arriving at the boat launch just before 4 p.m.
Swimming area.

Foster system changing from outside and in
The Oregon foster care system has some serious issues. That isn't news. But initiatives in the Oregon Legislature and within the Oregon Department of Human Services are attempting to address the problems that have plagued the system for decades.
By CASEY CHAFFIN

In the state legislature, the past several years have ushered in several reform efforts, often spearheaded by youth working with the Oregon Foster Youth Connection advocacy group. The newest statewide reform was passage of the Foster Sibling Bill of Rights in 2017. At the national level, the Family First Act, passed in February, is now being worked into state priorities.
Senator Sara Gelser (D-Corvallis) has made child welfare reform a centerpiece of her legislative career and takes the importance of foster youth voices to heart. "Hearing directly from the youth makes so much more sense and has a greater impact than hearing from a professor," she said. "That lived experience of those kids, that's the real thing. It's not anecdotal, it's real, those kids are speaking truth."
In her role as a child-welfare oriented legislator acting in a moment dubbed a "crisis" for foster care by the Oregon Secretary of State, Gelser has co-sponsored and chaired several new initiatives in foster care reform.
Last year, the Foster Sibling Bill of Rights was signed into law. The legislation mandates the maintenance of sibling bonds after sibling groups enter care and was proposed by and lobbied for by the Oregon Foster Youth Connection. Gelser co-sponsored the bill.
The Sibling Bill of Rights is still in the process of being implemented statewide, but the goal of that legislation is to put greater emphasis on keeping siblings who enter into care together if at all possible, and if a single placement isn't possible, then to require that foster parents provide avenues for youth to visit and communicate with their siblings living elsewhere.
When asked about how implementation of the law is progressing, Gelser said there is still work to be done to educate those who work in DHS and foster families about the necessity of maintaining sibling connections, both for the youths' sake and for the sake of compliance with the law.
"You have it, it's out there, but whether kids know it exists and can reference it is another thing altogether," she said. "And we have a lot of training around making this a key priority."
It's also important to note, Gelser said, that the Sibling Bill of Rights applies not just to foster families, but also to adoptive parents. Gelser is a mother of four children, two of whom are adoptees. She said understanding the importance of biological family is important even once the adoption papers are signed.
"You can have these perfectly loving, nurturing, happy adoptive families but that doesn't take away the questions you have about your roots and where you come from," Gelser said. "I don't think a child or an adult can ever have too many people in their lives to love them. We need to do a better job of really educating adoptive parents about that, especially kids that are being adopted out of foster care."
Both of her adoptive children have contact with their biological families. One of her daughters, who was brought into the Gelser household under an open adoption, has had contact with her birth family throughout her life. Her other adopted daughter had a closed adoption, but just connected with her birth father through the Oregon Adoption Search and Registry.
"I want my kids to be happy and whole and feel solid and grounded in who they are and I don't think there's anything threatening at all about other people who care about and love my kids, and that my kids care about and love," Gelser said. "Love grows."
Gelser is also involved with the newest national foster-care reform legislation, the Family First Act, as chair of the Family First Implementation and Policy Work Group at the State Capitol. This act was signed into national law in February of this year, and will go into full effect in October 2019. This law reallocates federal funds toward preventative services for parents, and away from group foster care, which often produces unsuccessful outcomes for foster youth.
The impetus of this law is that state agencies and childcare providers receive federal funding to take care of foster youth. Now that the law has been handed down from the federal level, state legislators need to figure out how to comply with it in their states.
"Right now, that [federal] money can only be spent on foster care maintenance, but now we're going to be able to use that money for prevention services, for parent coaching, for therapy, for substance abuse treatment—all the kinds of things that will help families avoid abuse and neglect and hopefully safely reduce the need for foster care," Gelser said.
The shift toward preventative services seeks to address the increasing number of youth entering foster care, which is a factor in the current "crisis." If the state can do a better job of supporting families before they reach their own crisis point, then the state will not have to be the deciding factor in a young person's future success.
"That's what I see my primary focus as a legislator and a community member is strengthening, modernizing, and improving our child welfare system and empowering youth to be the ones that lead that change," Gelser said. "The work is not done, I'd say it's barely started, but I'm excited about where we're going. It's one of the most important things that we can do."
In addition to changing laws and policy, Gelser emphasizes the importance of community in supporting people in general, even if their children aren't in foster care.
"Parenting is hard. Families and relationships are hard. The more that we can all take responsibility for each other, when we see someone struggling in the store, a neighbor struggling down the street, how can we offer to help?" Gelser said. "A lot of this is about supporting people to be successful."

The Oregon Department of Human Services, under pressure from a state audit and from years of unpleasant news coverage, is implementing major reform projects to better serve young people in Oregon foster care.
The Secretary of State's audit resulted in 24 recommendations to improve Oregon's child welfare and foster care system. Subsequently, Fariboz Pakseresht, the director of DHS, released a response to the audit, detailing plans to address all 24 recommendations. In the opening letter to the response, Pakseresht writes, "We need to tackle the root causes of these issues, not just the symptoms. That means focusing on recruiting and retaining foster parents and caseworkers, leveraging data and analytics in our strategic planning, and continuing our efforts to better partner with communities and support our existing foster parents."
Many of the 24 recommendations involve collecting better data about those who function in the foster care system—about the youth in care, about foster parents, about caseworkers, and when and why they burn out of their jobs.
Paul Bellatty, Director of the Office of Reporting, Research, Analytics, and Implementation, is in charge of overseeing many of the data-collection efforts. The five research projects currently in progress are: utilizing predictive analytics to be more discerning about when to remove a child from their biological home; understanding the makeup of youth in the foster care system to provide better services to those youth; where caseworkers' work can be streamlined; and recruitment and retention of both caseworkers and foster parents.
The first project uses predictive analytics to better understand when a child should be taken from their biological home after a report comes into the child welfare system. Pairing employee judgement calls with data about how other cases similar to the one on the line have panned out will allow DHS to figure out which youth should be pulled from their homes.
The Oregon foster care system is "about one and a half times [larger than] what you'd see in other states," Bellatty said. "So, it's about downsizing as much as possible without putting kids at risk."
The predictive analytics should help DHS employees prioritize which youth are at risk when a child welfare case is reported, allowing DHS employees to focus on youth who are actually in need of state resources.
The second project, which is currently in the process of reviewing 2500 child welfare cases statewide to better understand what types of youth who enter the foster care system and which types of foster care are in most need of state attention. The goal of that project is to understand what type of care is best for the types of young people in care. This project also analyzes the outcomes of different child welfare services to see which programs suit which type of family best, so families can be better paired with DHS programs.
The third and fourth projects seek to ease the burden on caseworkers. The projects seek to collect data to understand where caseworkers' time isn't being utilized as effectively as it could, find the "optimum caseload" size for caseworkers, and to discover the factors that cause caseworkers to quit their jobs. To address the latter concern, DHS is researching whether the main problem is recruitment or retention: are the wrong people being recruited as caseworkers, or is there not enough support to retain good caseworkers? Or is it a combination of both? To answer to these questions, DHS will send out regular surveys to new and continuing caseworkers to find out what caseworkers need on the job and why those who choose to quit make that decision. That way, DHS can lessen turnover and create a better environment for caseworkers.
The fifth project is about foster parent recruitment and retention. This project seeks to understand foster parent burnout, provide better training and services to foster parents to keep them in the system, and to recruit foster families that can better serve the needs of youth in the system. To learn more about DHS's foster parent retention and recruitment efforts, see sidebar.
All of these research projects are in progress, and all have concrete implementation goals to achieve once the research and data collection period ends. The goal isn't just to horde data; the goal is to make the lives of children in the system better.
"We're going to do a better job of serving [foster youth]. Child safety is what it's all about," Bellatty said.

In 1972 the company Wacond was founded manufacturing cooling towers. In 1985 as part of a strategic business development project, Vestas aircoil acquired Wacond and due to an increasing demand for cooling towers Vestas Industrial Cooling was formed as a separate division in 2009.
By pursuing the knowledge of Wacond and with the continuous development and optimization of our product range, Vestas industrial cooling has become one of the leading cooling tower manufacturers in northern Europe.
Vestas industrial cooling operate from two major production sites, one in the city of Lem in Denmark, this is also the home to our Head Office, and our second production facility is located in Brasov Romania. Our Research, Technical and Quality departments are all located and managed from our Head Office in Denmark.
Cooling towers are a specialist heat exchanger, where latent heat is rejected from the water by contact between water and air and through the evaporation of a small part of the water that needs to be cooled. Thus allowing the process water to cool down to a temperature lower than the ambient temperature, this is a major advantage in comparison to dry coolers.
All of our cooling towers are designed to achieve the required capacity, to build and extend along with demand and adapt to space requirements, to meet or exceed all relevant design codes for ease of service and maintenance. Our ISO 9001, 2008 ensures high level of quality globally.

There is widespread consternation in many political circles over Donald Trump's decision to recognise Jerusalem as the legitimate capital of Israel. The Muslim world is incensed and the decision promises to prompt widespread protests.
This is no surprise to students of Bible prophecy. In Zechariah we read: 'I will make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness to all the surrounding peoples" (12:2). The ancient city will be 'a very heavy stone for all peoples' (12:3).
The prophecy continues by describing a great destruction of the nations that 'come against Jerusalem' by 'the LORD' who will 'defend the inhabitants' (12:8).
A few verses later we read that the same LORD who fights against the nations 'will stand upon the Mount of Olives, which faces Jerusalem on the east' (14:3,4).
Finally, 'the LORD shall be King over all the earth. In that day it shall be "The LORD is one," and His name one' (14:9).
So in this prophecy we have a vision of Jerusalem being a focal point for international conflict, but being saved from destruction by 'the LORD'. So who is 'the LORD'?
The capital letters indicate to us that the original Hebrew word is 'YAHWEH'. This is the name of the God who made promises to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the patriarchs of Israel, and to David, Israel's greatest king.
These promises foretell that a 'seed' or descendant of these faithful men will bring blessings to all nations, when he comes to occupy 'the throne of his father David' in Jerusalem and to 'rule over the house of Jacob for ever' (Luke 1:32,33).
This seed is none other than the Lord Jesus Christ, whose destiny is to bring glory to God and 'on earth peace, goodwill toward men' (Luke 2:14). Because he perfectly demonstrated the character of YAHWEH, he was 'Immanuel' – 'God with us' (Matthew 1:23).
The gospels tell of his life and teaching, and of his cruel death by crucifixion outside the walls of Jerusalem. But the gospel – or 'good news' – assures us that God raised him to new life, after he had spent three days and nights in the grave. At the end of 40 days of appearances to hundreds of people, he took his closest followers onto the Mount of Olives and was taken up from them to his Father in heaven.
While the disciples looked on in astonishment, two angels appeared to them, assuring them that one day Jesus would return 'in like manner as you saw him go into heaven' (Acts 1:9-11).
We can see now the significance of the words of Zechariah concerning the LORD who will stand on the Mount of Olives, the one who will confront those nations that have come against Jerusalem, and finally establish his rule over all the earth. For just as Jesus did the work of his Father during his first coming, so he will represent his Father at his second coming, so that his rule over the earth can be described as 'the kingdom of God'.
The gospel is described in the Bible as 'the gospel of the kingdom of God'. It is good news, because the turmoil and conflict in our world will be resolved by his just and righteous rule, bringing peace and well-being to people from every nation.
So, why does Jerusalem matter? Because beyond the political squabbles of the present situation is the prospect of Jerusalem becoming the capital of the world, from which divine laws will govern the nations, whose weapons of destruction will be replaced by instruments of productivity (Isaiah 2:3,4).
This is a message of hope for the world, of hope for all people who hear the word of God and believe in its inspired message.

Bump N' Run with KT
Bump N' Run: Giants Reboot, Jets Surprise And Playoff Time In College Football
"It's been a long time, we shouldn't of left you,
Without a dope beat to step to."
~ Rakim
It has been a few weeks, but the Bump N' Run column has returned. I have stayed away as my ability to look at football critically was clouded by the debacle that is the New York Football Giants season. To be frank, I have yelled obscenities for what seems like two months at my TV every single Sunday…even when the Giants had a bye week.
With all of that said, Bump N' Run is back. Let's begin the triumphant return with the end of the long national nightmare this week.
McAdoo, Reese Out As Giants Clean House
The bane of my existence for the last three months has been Ben McAdoo. The former Giants coach was the master of nonsense as his postgame comments were stuff that my elementary aged nephew could handle better. His inability to control the players on the team or do his job was a display in futility. Add in former general manager Jerry Reese and his refusal to upgrade the porous offensive line, and you had Dumb and Dumber running the New York Giants franchise.
Finally, Giants ownership got the message as they fired McAdoo and Reese on Monday after a 2-10 start to the season. Defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo (who should have gotten the job when McAdoo was hired) takes over as interim head coach. Kevin Abrams takes over as the acting general manager role as the search for a new GM begins.
Let's keep it 100, this move should have been made weeks ago. John Mara said that with three of the final four games happening at home, he did not want to subject McAdoo to the vitriol from fans. But Mr. Mara….HE DESERVES IT! He benched a two-time winning Super Bowl MVP for Geno Smith. I will say that again, he benched a two-time Super Bowl MVP for Geno Smith. Not to mention if he said, "I have to look at the tape" one more time, I was going to scream.
Good riddance to both Ben McAdoo and Jerry Reese. Here's hoping the Giants take their time in finding their next general manager and head coach. The future regime has much work to do to fix what the previous administration screwed up.
The Jets Are The Toast Of New York Football
For the all the misery that the Giants have given me, the Jets are looking like a feel-good story. At 5-7, Gang Green will not make the playoffs, but they are becoming one of the most dangerous teams in the NFL.
All the credit for this season must go to Todd Bowles. Going into the season, the Jets ransacked their roster cutting almost every veteran on the team. That left Bowles with nearly nothing. Now, Bowles has a young team who is playing hard for him, and giving teams fits every single week. Josh McCown is playing hard weekly as he knows that his job is on the line every single game. Robby Anderson is becoming a good NFL receiver and Elijah McGuire is proving to be an NFL- ready running back.
I'm rooting for the Jets for the rest of the season. They may not make the playoffs, but they sure are fun to watch.
Moving The Chains
- The College Football Playoff is set as (1) Clemson takes on (4) Alabama and (2) Oklahoma goes against (4) Georgia. I am still not sure about Alabama being included. Teams who do not win their conference should not be allowed into the playoff, point blank.
- The Falcons defeated the Saints on Thursday night at home, but it seems as if they are still recovering from last year's Super Bowl. Matt Ryan and the team just seems off.
- The coaching carousel in college football is in full swing as numerous coaches continue to lie to recruits and their families about taking care of them, only to leave for more money. Willie Taggart is on his third job in a year after leaving Oregon for Florida State. It is a sad state of affairs and shows that these men genuinely have no loyalty.
- Finally, a big shout out to Columbia University as they finished their season at 8-2. They finished 5-2 in the Ivy League, good for a second-place tie, their highest finish in 21 years. With a young team, the Lions could be in the running for the Ivy League crown next season.

The Scariest Thing You'll See All Halloween Week…
Aaah! Don't look now, but Miss Jay has done lost her pants!
(Be afraid. Be very afraid.)
In tonight's episode of America's Next Top Model, one of the girls needs to be rescued from her bad "suburban mom" wardrobe choice, and Miss Jay Alexander rises to the occasion by dropping the ol' pantaloons.
Also tonight, Sheena goes all Skankytown (again?) and Elina looks stiff as a rock (again?), which you can see in the clips below.
Is there any hope for this cast?

Lloyd meets with Secretary of State over IRP concerns
This week Stephen Lloyd MP met with the Secretary of State for Health, the Rt Hon Jeremy Hunt MP, to raise concerns about the changes to Maternity and Paediatrics at the DGH, and highlight the Trust's lack of an independent audit over their implementation of the original Independent Reconfiguration Panel (IRP) recommendations from 2008.
This meeting, initially arranged following a question Stephen raised at Prime Minister's Questions, was designed to highlight the lack of ongoing independent oversight of findings made by the IRP. In 2008 the IRP blocked proposals for a single site Consultant-led maternity provision in East Sussex, on the grounds that the road between Hastings and Eastbourne was unsuitable for urgent medical transfers. Just 6 years later, the local Hospital Trust has again tried to remove Consultant-led maternity provision from Eastbourne in favour of keeping it at Hastings, despite no improvements to the road and an increase in demand at both sites. Stephen highlighted the safety concerns with the Secretary of State, and suggested that mechanisms should be in place to ensure that the rulings of the IRP are properly audited to ensure robust implementation.
Following the meeting, Stephen Lloyd said: "It was a positive meeting. I raised the concern that no independent body audits the IRP's recommendations, and the Secretary of State was very receptive to the problems this may cause, as well as the need to fix this. He went as far to say that the whole system could be undermined if the recommendations of an independent panel are not heeded. We discussed what could be put in place to audit the implementation of IRP recommendations."
He added "My concern remains that the list of long term proposals for maternity provision, put forward by the Clinical Commissioning Groups, does not include an option for both the DGH and Conquest to run Consultant-led maternity services. This is despite the IRP memorably overturning these changes last time they were proposed in 2008."

So this was easily one of my favorite sketchbooks I'd put together…I think it was my first actually that I made from the ground up. =s=
Posts Tagged 'video-Video'
This one was a bit more involved but I think the end results turned out alright. The video, that is, not the illustration. That I wished could have been better executed. I think I played it a little too safe. I'm planning five more of these so, stay tuned! =s=
This was my last Robert Bateman sketchbook. The darn thing was barely keeping it's cover together. A little frustrating to say the least. Still, the paper took ink and other media really well. =s=
I think this has to be the smallest sketchbook I own. Super convenient and discreet. I just wished I'd had used cheaper paper so there'd have been more of it. These were cast offs from cutting comic pages down to size. =s=
Here's another sketch, this time a cover idea for my graphic novel, BRAUN. =s=

Old film cameras captivate so many people in the photography industry, but they are a depletable resource that will naturally dwindle. This 22 year old is working on countering that trend.
I love film cameras. I have shelves and storage filled with them. I only shoot with a couple, but I love more about them than their function; their aesthetics, their history, their story. Although I — and family members on my behalf — buy these cameras, a lot of them wouldn't work well enough to take any images. I've thought about sending them off to be repaired, but it's something I'd like to do myself. Well, that's what this one gentleman has done with great success.
Pierro Pozella is a Master's student from Surrey, England, whom after working in a charity shop, became tired of seeing old cameras being thrown away. Without being able to find many resources on how he could fix them, and with knowledgeable folk being unhelpful, Pozella set out to reverse engineer the camera bodies and teach himself. Before long, he was getting requests from other people and it has become a flourishing business called PPP Camera Repairs.
It's great to see people repairing old cameras, particularly when they're this young!

A breath of fresh air.
I love things like this.
Pretty cool.
Old school repair guys should be ashamed of themselves. So sad the old sods are secretive of repair knowledge. It's not like these are common use cameras anymore, and most of those guys are going to be dead soon anyway! :-D WTF are those guy thinking? Hats off to this kid for his diligence and perseverance in obtaining his skills. Glad that he wants to share what he's learned.
The future looks brighter with young people such as these two :)
I need to get a Mamiya 90mm K/L lens repaired for my RB67. But England might be a little too far to send it.

Did you know?
Brush Off Your Stress and Invigorate Your Health in 5-15 minutes a day
~ The Dry Brushing Technique for using the Exfoliating Body Brush
1. Dry brushing removes cellulite-- Cellulite is a non-scientific term defined as toxic deposits of subcutaneous fat material and fibrous tissue that are not able to be eliminated and which cause a dimpling effect on the overlying skin.
These deposits most commonly occur on the thighs and hips of women. Cellulite can affect men and women of any body weight or size. What causes the toxins? Well, some think that we store the breakdown product of cells as toxins in this subcutaneous tissue. Others think that toxic emotions can be stored in the subcutaneous tissue which then builds up as cellulite.
Your best bets for getting rid of cellulite are dry brushing, connective tissue massage, working though the emotional issues that are causing the toxins to stagnate, eating foods that feed the skin, an alkaline diet program and a consistent/persistent exercise routine. These techniques will break down the unwelcome toxic body deposits and send them scurrying out your body through the elimination channels we discussed above. And your health will be SO much better for it!
Foods that feed the skin include foods that are rich in lecithin, essential fatty acids, and antioxidants, a balance of Omega-3-6-9 oils fresh dark green leafy vegetables, tomatoes, berries of all kinds, and dark chocolate (in condiment amounts—like an ounce a day!)
2. Dry brushing cleans the lymphatic system. Lymph is considered part of our immune system and is made of white blood cells called lymphocytes and the interstitial fluid that bathe our cells, bringing our cells nutrients and removing their waste. All detoxification occurs first and foremost through the lymph. Our bodies contain far more lymph than blood, so you can see how important this might be. Paavo Airola maintains that dry brushing is an essential part of any intestinal cleansing and healing program. Dry brushing literally moves the lymph containing large proteins and particulate matter that cannot be transported in any other way back into the circulatory system. If these proteins stayed in our systems outside the blood vessels, it would attract other fluid. Pretty soon we'd get swollen ankles, limbs and eventually we'd be leaking fluid out our skin (not a pretty sight.) This is called lymphedema and is why most health programs include some type of exercise and body work.
So, why don't we die if we don't do this dry brushing thing? Well, lymph vessels themselves have their own pumping mechanism sensing when the vessels have more fluid in them or in the interstitial fluids. Lymph only goes one way because of the many one-way valves on the insides of each lymph vessel. The body is a fascinating thing. It literally pumps the lymph along its path back to the heart. Removal of proteins from the interstitial spaces is an essential function. Without this happening, we would die within 24 hours. We can help speed this process up when we dry brush or massage toward the heart, contract our muscles and move our bodies (like when we walk or exercise.) Increased lymph flow can also be caused by high blood pressure. This is why it is so important to attend to this malady and why the doctors get into a frenzy of prescribing so many different medications for it. (Currently there are over 140 medications for high blood pressure!)
3. Dry brushing removes dead skin layers. Dry skin brushing helps shed dead skin cells, which can help improve skin texture and cell renewal. Dry skin is a sign of detoxification. Therefore it's good to keep the process going by removing the dead skin daily. If this does not occur, a "log jam" can happen where the person ends up with eczema, psoriasis, and dandruff.
4. Dry brushing strengthens the immune system. Dry skin brushing may reduce duration of infection and accelerate the clearing of toxins. It helps support the immune system during cancer and other chronic illness treatment. By stimulating the lymph vessels to drain toxic mucoid matter into organs of detoxification we can purify the entire system. After several days of dry brushing, sometimes you may notice a gelatinous mucoid material in your stools. This is a normal sign that the intestinal tract is renewing itself. Best of all, it feels invigorating!
5. Dry brushing stimulates the hormone and oil glands, thus helping all of the body systems perform at peak efficiency. The skin is your body's largest organ. When improperly maintained, the elimination duties of the skin are forced upon the kidneys. Chemical analysis of sweat shows that it has almost the same constituents as urine. If the skin becomes inactive, its pores choke with millions of dead cells, uric acid and other impurities which will remain in the body putting extra stress on the liver and kidneys. People with big hips and thighs usually have low-grade bladder infections. Another sign of this is that the body gives off a distinct sickening odor. When the bladder and kidney are really sick, the calves are often swollen as well and the feet stink. So, give your kidneys a break—keep your skin clean and rejuvenated. Bathe daily and do a dry brushing before the bath to help stimulate blood flow to the surface so that toxins can more easily escape.
6. Dry Brushing tightens the skin by increasing the flow of blood which, in turn moves toxins and lessens the appearance of cellulite. Our bodies make a new top layer of skin every 24 hours - skin brushing removes the old top layer, allowing the clean new layer to come to the surface, resulting in softer, smoother skin.
7. Dry Brushing tones the muscles. Dry skin brushing helps muscle tone by stimulating the nerve endings which causes the individual muscle fibers to activate and move. It also helps mobilize fat and helps to even distribution of fat deposits. This is a great technique for invalids who can't exercise.
8. Dry brushing stimulates circulation. Our skin breathes! And yet, in most people, this vital route of detoxification is operating far below its capacity, because it is clogged with dead skin cells and the un-removed waste excreted through perspiration. Dry skin brushing increases circulation to skin, encouraging your body's discharge of metabolic wastes. Increased blood flow begins entering the areas brushed and you will experience an increase in electromagnetic energy that permits you to feel energized and invigorated. By activating the circulation you can also prevent varicose veins.
9. Dry brushing improves the function of the nervous system--Dry skin brushing rejuvenates the nervous system by stimulating nerve endings in the skin.
10. Helps digestion -- Dry skin brushing helps your skin to absorb nutrients by eliminating clogged pores. Healthy, breathing skin contributes to overall body health. When you brush, the pores of your skin open allowing your skin to absorb nutrients and eliminate toxins. Clogged pores are not just a cosmetic concern. Healthy, breathing skin contributes to overall body health.
What You Need To Do Dry Brushing: To dry brush, use a soft natural fiber brush with a long handle, so that you are able to reach all areas of your body. One with a removable head with a strap for your hand is a good choice, or a simple one-piece body brush with a medium handle will do too. Bath Brush with detachable handle Body Brush (Available at health food stores or from Pam Lamkin, CMT, email@example.com; 209-570-6906) A loofah sponge or a rough towel can also be used. Most nylon and synthetic fiber brushes are too sharp and may damage skin although I found a softer bath brush with nylon bristles that seems to do the trick. The important thing is to find something that is just right for your skin. Once your skin becomes "seasoned," you can switch to a coarser brush.
Tips and Tricks for Dry Brushing:
• Always dry brush your dry and naked body before you shower or bathe because you will want to wash off the impurities from the skin as a result from the brushing action.
• You can do the brushing head-to-toe or toe-to-head. It really doesn't matter as long as the entire body is brushed. Long sweeping strokes starting from the bottom of your feet upwards, and from the hands towards the shoulders, and on the torso in an upward direction help drain the lymph back to your heart. Note: Stroking away from your heart puts extra pressure on the valves within the veins and lymph vessels and can cause ruptured vessels and varicose veins.
• Use light pressure in areas where the skin is thin and harder pressure on places like the soles of the feet.
• Skin brushing should be performed once a day, preferably first thing in the morning. A thorough skin brushing takes about 15 minutes, but any time spent brushing prior to bathing will benefit the body. If you are feeling ill, increasing the treatments to twice a day is good. You can also dry brush areas of cellulite five to 10 minutes twice a day to achieve cellulite dissolving but the technique needs to be done consistently for a minimum of five months.
• Avoid sensitive areas and anywhere the skin is broken such as areas of skin rash, wounds, cuts, and infections. Also, never brush an area affected by poison oak or poison ivy.
• Finish up with your regular shower and ending with three hot and cold cycles. That means turning on the water as hot as you can take it for several seconds, then as cold as you can handle it, then hot, then cold for three cycles. End with either hot or cold. This will further invigorate the skin and stimulate blood circulation, bringing more blood to the outer layers of the skin.
• After getting out of the shower, dry off vigorously and massage your skin with pure plant oils such as olive, avocado, apricot, almond, sesame, coconut or cocoa butter. Add a little peanut and Castor oil to the mix if you have arthritis.
• Clean your skin brush using soap and water once a week. After rinsing, dry your skin brush in an open, sunny spot to prevent mildew.
• Any well designed program will take about 30 days to see and experience the changes.
Please be patient and keep up the program! For a thorough lymphatic cleansing, perform skin brushing daily for a minimum of three months. How to Dry Brush (Easy, Fast Instructions):
• Stand in the shower with the water off.
• Starting at your feet, start brushing in small circles towards your heart. Apply very light pressure, avoiding broken skin, skin rashes, or areas where the skin is thin, such as the face or inner thighs.
• After you've finished both legs, move on to your arms. Brush from your fingertips, again towards your heart.
• Reach around and brush from your back towards your stomach.
• Brush your entire back and abdomen area, shoulders and neck.
• Use circular counter-clockwise strokes on the abdomen.
• Lightly brush the breasts.
• When you are finished, begin showering.
Need More Specific Instructions? Here are the verbose directions. (You will do most steps 7-14 times. Hang in there—it's not as complicated as it sounds and doesn't take as long as it seems once you get the flow of it.)
1. Using your right hand, gently slide the brush along your right jaw line starting from your earlobe to the underside of your chin 7 times.
2. Place the brush at the hairline on your neck and gently pull around the right side of your neck to the Adam's apple 7 times.
3. Hold the brush with your right hand at the bottom of your neck (where it joins the top of your back) and bring it around your neck to the right and down along your right collar bone and end up between your collar bones 7 times.
4. Stroke your breastbone in a circular fashion to stimulate the thymus gland 7 times.
5. Carefully brush the breast in a circular motion 7 times.
6. Repeat the above steps for your left side holding the brush with your left hand.
7. To stimulate the pituitary gland, hold the brush on the back of your head near the base of your neck and rock the brush up and down, then side to side, both sides 14 times.
8. Hold the brush in your left armpit with your right hand and rotate it counter clockwise 7 times, then clockwise 7 times.
9. Repeat on your right armpit with your left hand.
10. Brush upward 7 times from your upper right thigh to your right armpit.
11. Repeat process on your left side. Women may need to hold their breast out of the way with their free hand.
12. Brush back and forth over your belly button and around your waistline 14 times (like passing a basketball behind your back).
13. Brush in a circular motion over your belly-button, counterclockwise 7 times then clockwise 7 times.
14. Finish brushing the front of your body in any direction starting at the bottom and brushing all the way up 14 times. Very little pressure needs to be applied to the genitals and women's breasts because the skin is sensitive and will redden if irritated.
15. Brush up and down your spine from the base of your neck and down as far as you can 14 times.
16. Finish your upper back by stroking it around toward your sides.
17. Brush your spine from tailbone up as high as you can reach 14 times, holding the brush with two hands or with the detachable wooden handle.

19. Brush up from right ankle to right knee and work all the way around your leg, brushing up towards your heart.
20. Hold the brush in the right groin with both hands and rotate it 7 times counter-clockwise, then 7 times clockwise.
21. Repeat with the left groin.
22. Brush from right knee to right hip 7 times.
23. Work all the way around your leg continuing to brush upwards (towards the heart).
24. Brush up from right ankle to right knee and work all the way around your leg, brushing up towards your heart.
25. Brush around your right ankle 7 times.
26. Brush back and forth over the top of your right foot from toes to ankle.
27. Brush across your right toes on top and underneath 7 times.
28. Brush the bottom of your right foot heel to toe 7 times.
29. Now do the same with for the left foot, leg and thigh.
30. Brush upward from right elbow to your armpit and shoulder 7 times.
31. Brush from your right wrist to the elbow in the same manner 7 times.
32. Repeat steps on your left arm.
33. Lightly brush the webbing (or junction) between your left thumb and index or pointer finger on the palm side 14 times, then on the non-palm side 14 times.
34. Brush your left palm from wrist to fingertips and back 7 times.
35. Brush the back of your left hand the same way 7 times.
36. Brush each left hand finger individually back and forth 7 times on the areas that have not been brushed yet.
37. Repeat the steps for your right hand.
After brushing, take a hot shower with soap (about three minutes in duration), followed by a 10-20 second cold rinse. Repeat this procedure three times. If the hot/cold showers are too extreme, a warm shower can be used.
Follow the shower with a rubdown with either a sponge or towel to remove dead skin.

Financial Tips and Ideas from WireLend:
Take Inventory Of All Your Clothes
If you're a shopaholic and have regular urges to go shopping for clothes, before doing so make sure to go through your wardrobe and re-discover what you may find. Move all the clothes out of the back of your closet to the front and take another look. Suddenly your entire wardrobe may feel tremendously different. Dig the clothes out of the bottoms of drawers in your dressers and put them on the top for easier rotation. You may end up feeling like you shopped for an entirely new wardrobe without dropping a cent at the department store.
Coupons are just as good as cash. Get the best prices money can buy hunting for coupons in your mail box and online. Take advantage of coupons. Circle of Moms, a website dedicated to new and veteran moms, reported that most of its users save at least $100 per month just from using coupons each time they shop. Despite having a collection of coupons, experts say that in order to save money, consumers should be frugal in spending their dollars. Coupons are indeed helpful, but you can still overspend regardless of coupon use. In other words, buy only what you need.

Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer and Orange County School Board Member Nancy Robbinson prepared the school board chair's election for a high-stakes battle Wednesday.
On the steps of Orlando City Hall Wednesday, Dyer endorsed Robbinson, a bit of a protégé, for the county-wide chair's position Wednesday amidst expectations that Orange County Mayor Teresa Jacobs is about to announce her candidacy for the post.
Dyer's endorsement begins setting the sides in what could be a contest between Robbinson, popular among downtown leaders, and Jacobs, broadly popular among countywide voters, for the uniquely-powerful county-wide school board chair's position in Orange County.
"We all know that great schools are the backbone of every community. They reflect our community's belief that educating our young people and developing tomorrow's leaders is a wise investment in the future of our community. But great schools don't just happen…. without great school boards," Dyer said.
"Nancy is an experienced education leader that our community needs as its next school board chair. I'm honored to endorse Nancy Robbinson as the next Orange County School Board chair," Dyer said Wednesday.
Robbinson got her start in education leadership when Dyer appointed her to his Mayor's Public Education Action Council in 2003, and then she served on the school board for ten years, starting in 2008, representing north-central Orange County in District 6.
"I am just as passionate today about public education as when I first ran for the school board. And I still firmly believe that public education has to deliver a high-quality education experience for every student," Robbinson said.
She pledged she would continue momentum that she said she helped create, seeking to continue to harden the schools for safety, focus on individual student achievement, pursue more pre-school options, and support teachers.
She would not say that she would change anything of the agenda set by current School Board Chair Bill Sublette, but said she would be available to treat the post as a full-time job, which she said is different from Sublette, an attorney.
The transition will be a critical time, she said, because at least four and perhaps five of the current seven district seats on the school board will have new members.
"I'm positive that I am the right person to guide this new and changing school board toward functioning at a high level, and I am ready for this leadership role," she said.
Sublette is stepping down after two terms as the only county-wide elected school board chair Orange County has had since the position was created. In addition to Robbinson, School Board Members Joie Cadle, Daryl Flynn, and Christine Moore are not running for another term, while Linda Kobert is seeking re-election.
Robbinson has two opponents already, Robert Allen Prater of Orlando and Matthew Fitzpatrick of Apopka. The race would take a decidedly different level and tone, however, if Jacobs opts in. The two-term mayor, a former county commissioner, won both of her countywide elections by landslides, though she's never enjoyed the high regard of the downtown Orlando leadership community that tends to rally around Dyer.
Robbinson said she does not expect to change her approach if Jacobs gets in.
"I am hearing rumors that she is planning to file. Like I tell people, it's always a rumor until she's actually gone to the Supervisor of Elections to file to run for the office," Robbinson said. "The way I plan to respond if she were to file is to continue my campaign just as I am, and be the obvious choice for the Orange County School Board chair position because I have 10 years of educational experience, and I have been representing the community and fighting for children and public education the entire time."
Dyer said it makes no difference to him whether Jacobs files for the post.
"It doesn't affect my support for Nancy Robbinson one bit," Dyer said. "She's done a great job in 10 years with the school district. She'll do a super job as school board chair and I will support her all the way through."

BOSTON, Mass. - The Endicott women's rugby program got off to a great start last Saturday with a 103-12 win over Wentworth in their first matchup of the 2018 season.
The Gulls took flight early and never let up, as Endicott maintained a comfortable lead throughout the game. In addition to its strong and effective defensive presence, several Endicott student-athletes registered outstanding offensive performances throughout the afternoon:

Amanda Poulin (Turner, Maine) - 5 tries & 6 conversions
Felicia Bouchard (Wales, Mass.) - 2 tries
Kelsey Joyce (Wharton, N.J.) - 1 try & 5 conversions
Jordan Zak (Brimfield, Mass.) - 1 try
Natalie Shambo (Hopkinton, Mass.) - 1 try
"[This is] Shannon O'Malley's first rugby match ever," said Endicott women's rugby head coach Carly Baker. "She had a great performance, as well as the rest of our team. The vets were super helpful and supportive leading up to this match. It was an impressive first win, overall."
In their next matchup, the Gulls will host the Lyons of Wheaton College at Hempstead Stadium on Sunday, September 23rd at 11 AM.

Sebastian, 19, is a Danish student who is sporting a denim on denim look, but modified with the complementary black and brown shirt and pullover. The best touch in his outfit is the almost imperceptible black-on-black zigzags. Again, blonde hair is vital in the total coloring, half-hidden by a black bonnet.
Go over to Copenhagen Street Style to see how his sneakers complement his look.
Marco, 27, is a fashion historian from Italy. He is wearing a jacket by J. Lindeberg and a scarf by Calvin Klein. Yes, the color of his eys provide a great accent to his wonderful tonal scarf and neutral jacket with unintrusive buttons, but it is his sweater that grants personality.
Charlie is wearing jeans by YSL, a scarf by H&M, gloves by Emporio Armani, and a vintage jacket by Ralph Lauren. This image was taken at the Jardin des Tuileries in Paris.
Boyish + stylized military vintage = adorable, classic charm.

Exclusively designed for DJI MAVIC AIR, the Advanced Drone Filters IRND KIT incorporates ACCU-ND technology for accurate color reproduction, easy maintenance and protection from infrared contamination that may affect the color balance of the image when shooting under the daylight. The just-fit frame with screw type mount secures the filter on the camera, and the allweather protective case will allow using these filters in different shooting conditions.
For natural and smooth looking motion In video shooting, it is fundamental to keep the shutter speed fitting the frame rate setting, that is, to keep it equal to double the frame rate for optimal results. This is because, unlike still photography, an excessively fast shutter speed may create a jarring effect and produce afterimages that will not look good at all in the final video.As you can see from the image below, unlike still image, video clip is made of a sequence of still images. With low shutter speed, each still image will blur but will look smooth in the video sequence. On the contrary, a higher shutter speed will capture the object solid and sharp, but once in a video sequence all objects will appear separated, creating jarring and unnatural looking motion.
By using IRND filters, the shutter speed can be adjusted to the proper value to get that natural and smooth looking motion requested in video footages, as shown in the image below.
Drones are mostly used outdoors in day time, high-lit environments. Since DJI MAVIC AIR is equipped with a camera module that has a fixed aperture of F2.8, and ISO setting should be set at the minimum level of ISO100 for image quality sake, IRND filters are strongly suggested as a necessary ad-on accessory to control the shutter speed and achieve optimal exposure.The image below shows the difference between an overexposed video footage and a video shot with appropriate shutter speed setting during a sunny day in a snowy mountain area.
High-quality IRND filters are required to be extremely and accurately neutral to prevent color shift or IR pollution from affecting the final image.Accurate neutrality of Kenko IRND filters is achieved by adopting Accu-ND Technology that is exclusively developed for DSLR camera filters. Accu-ND Technology provides constant and fine-adjusted light density within a wide spectrum range, including the infrared area (400nm-1000nm).
Kenko Advanced Drone Filters IRND KIT contains 4 filters of different density to choose from depending on the light conditions at the shooting location. Choosing the right density value will allow fine adjustments of the camera setting according to the different light conditions, thus avoiding diffraction and obtaining optimal exposure of the image.
Anti-reflection multi-layer coating of Kenko IRND filters is blended with a water-repellent layer. This ensures protection from fingerprints, smudges, dust, thus making filters easy to clean and maintain in ready-to-use conditions.
