Interview Excerpts
My fondest memory is my grandfather telling me stories from the Ramayan and the Mahabharat at bedtime when I was a child.
Many interesting stories happen behind the making of a book. Would you like to share one such moment?
I almost died before I wrote my novel Mistress of Spices. The fact that I recovered was quite magical (the doctors had been afraid I might die), so I wanted to write a magical novel to acknowledge the fact that miracles do take place in our world.
Coming up with the idea for a new story is what is most exciting for me. All of a sudden, an idea will start taking shape inside my head, out of nowhere. Characters will start appearing. When this happens, I have to stop everything and write down these ideas! I remember when I was writing Oleander Girl, I stayed up all night outlining the novel!
For me, what's special about poetry are the images – how you can express an idea or an emotion or an experience through them. With prose, I'm most interested in character development and the arc of a life – or sometimes of several generations, as in my latest novel-in-stories, Before We Visit the Goddess.
You have written mythological fictions. Does knowledge of mythology inspire life? How does it work for you?
The mythical tales of our culture have been important to me since childhood.
As I wrote above, my grandfather introduced me to the stories, but I read and reread them many times as I was growing up. They address important ethical and spiritual questions. They are set in such magical spaces, and yet what happens in them is very relevant to our everyday lives. An understanding of mythology helps us live a better life with better values. Writing about the characters in my novel Palace of Illusions made me analyze my own values as a woman. I think ultimately it made me a more spiritual person. Right now, as I am writing my Sita novel, I am questioning my own values very carefully.
Do you think reading and writing are inter-connected? As a reader what kind of books or genres interest you most?
Absolutely. Reading and writing are totally connected. I always tell my students, if you want to be a good writer, you must read widely. I am interested in literary fiction, since that is what I write. I love reading books from many different cultures because it widens my knowledge of the world and of human nature. I read all kinds of books depending on my mood. I do like mythology and fantasy a great deal! I am planning to write a mystery novel sometime soon, so I have been reading a lot of mysteries lately.
What do you think is an author's responsibility towards his readers and towards the society she inspires?
An author's responsibility is to write about important contemporary social issues and make the reader think carefully. However, the book has to draw the reader in and be fun to read, or else it's not going to have an impact on the reader.
You have attended many national and international literary fests and literary meets. Please share a specific experience from any of the fests you attended, which touched you the most?
I was really touched by how many people had traveled long distances to attend my events. When I was recently at the Bangalore Times Lit Fest, a young man had traveled all the way from Nepal to see me because he had really enjoyed my books. Something like that makes me take my responsibilities as a writer more seriously.

After learning how your character ends up in Bayview, the city in which NFSU2 takes place, you receive a message from a fox named Rachel. Through her Cingular messages, you're told to deliver her RX-8 to a garage in the city core. The map system makes it relatively easy for you to find your destination, but for those who have a hard time traversing their way through the city, a GPS using directional arrows is available. Along the way there are other drivers ready to challenge you for money and information. Learning the numerous shortcuts in each section is imperative to making your way though career mode (it doesn't hurt in races either, duh). After making your way to the garage, you give Rachel her RX-8 and are given a clunker to use are your starter.
The developers are making a strong effort to make the cards feel heavier than the ones in the previous version. Players will definitely get a better sense of each car's weight, which makes sliding and counter-steering more challenging. The logic behind this is that NFSU's cars had more of a "kart" feel than that of true mean machine.
N20 is implemented a bit differently as well. There are two N20 meters on your HUD. The first is the standard N20 for a sizeable boost. The second is the "Racebreaker" N20, which is twice as strong and lasts twice as long as standard N20. Players needn't be as conservative with N20 use as they were in the original. Stylish driving gives your N20 meter a boost. If you get turned around, you can execute up to three donuts per race to get your meter jacked and your car back in the pack.
The game's camera is being tweaked for additional exhilaration. Some of the races looked stomach sickening in first-person view. The replay mode has more than 80 cameras that show various points of your race. The numerous cameras highlight the car, the environment, N20 boost sequences, and more. Players can also opt to watch replays in drive mode, though these replays aren't nearly as stylish as the automatic mode and its plenitude of cameras.
That's about it for this update of Need for Speed Underground 2. This time around I was given a better idea of the game's variety. Overall, it's looking superior to the original, which was excellent. Next time around I hope to get a chance to see how engaging career mode is and how well the graphics are holding up considering the larger, streaming world the game takes place in. We should have more updates on this scorcher before it comes out, so check back soon.

A full-service gross lease (FSG) commonly found in office leases, includes all the normal operating expenses plus janitorial (interior cleaning of your office space). You have to check with the landlord to see what the janitorial schedule is for your building. Some buildings are daily and some only a few times per week. If you require more, you need to discuss it with the landlord to see if they can provide it.
Even though I'm answering this a few months after your posting, I wanted to add a small detail.Full Service leases are usually for top-tier office space. And full service should also include electric. This can be significant for larger spaces. The additional items I see which are not included with full service leases are parking charges, after hours A/C usage, and sales tax.

Black Oak Heritage Park was/is my sanctuary, my retreat into nature and hope of becoming a healthier individual.
Reader Letter: Black Oak was cyclist's motivation to become healthy
Nearly four years ago I was diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (heart disease). I had been off my bike for 10 years prior to that. I swore I was going to fight this disease and my motivation was to get riding again.
Black Oak Heritage Park was a lot different 10 years ago: four wheelers, motorcycles and garbage all over the place. I was amazed at the change when eventually, a year after my diagnosis, I was able to ride again. How clean and well-maintained the trails had become.
Although I could not even complete half the trail without stopping several times to catch my breath, Black Oak became my accomplishment of becoming healthy again. Black Oak was/is my sanctuary, my retreat into nature and hope of becoming a healthier individual.
Black Oak needs to reopen again, for the sake of the community, to lead healthier lifestyles whether it be biking, running or walking. I would like to say directly to the individuals responsible for the studies and decisions being made regarding these trails: open Black Oak up again.

Cypriol Essential Oil provides decongestive attributes and is used to treat problematic digestive problems. Cypriol comes from a plant called Indian Papyrus. Cypriol is a brand name given to this oil in India. We use it too so that by sound these oils are not confused with cypress. There is another cyperus oil (C. rotundus) or more commonly named nut-grass or coco-grass. Cypriol is part of a species of 600 plants growing in the tropics and subtropics.

Unite Brexit Check's weekly news briefing on the UK's exit from the EU.
Check back every Friday for an overview of the week's Brexit-related political, industrial and economic developments.
Brexit negotiations
PM Theresa May has struck a last-minute deal with the EU in a bid to move Brexit talks on to the next phase (December 8).
There will be no "hard border" with Ireland; and the rights of EU citizens in the UK and UK citizens in the EU will be protected.
The so-called "divorce bill" will amount to between £35bn and £39bn, Downing Street says.
The European Commission president said it was a "breakthrough" and he was confident EU leaders will approve it next Thursday (BBC).
Figures from across the labour movement have given their take on Theresa May's deal with EU leaders, which was announced this morning.
Richard Corbett, Labour's leader in the European parliament, said deal on the Irish border "raises an interesting question".
He said: "If the UK is to 'maintain full alignment with those rules of the internal market and the customs union which… support north-south cooperation, the all-island economy and the protection of the 1998 agreement', then does that not mean most single market rules, including those for agriculture, sanitary standards, consumer protection, transport, fair competition and much else?
"Is it a first step to remaining aligned with all of them, to keep the benefits of the single market? Are the government's ultra-Brexiters really on board for that?"
"The lengthy process of getting here, the questions it leaves unresolved, the chaos and confusion of this Tory/DUP government, raises questions about the prime minister's ability and competence as we move on to the more difficult talks around the future relationship between Britain and the EU."
TUC general secretary Frances O'Grady said the government's red lines were "getting in the way" of negotiations.
She said: "This moves the UK on to talking about the big issues of Brexit – how we get a good deal that protects workers' rights, jobs and livelihoods.
But it's clear the government's determination to leave the single market and customs unions is getting in the way. The government must drop its self-defeating red lines and put these options back on the table.
And before the next round of talks, we need a sea-change in the way government acts. Ministers need to bring in the negotiating expertise of unions and employers (LabourList)."
Sadiq Khan has commissioned his own assessments of the impact of Brexit on the economy after the Government admitted it has done no such studies itself.
The Mayor of London said he had been forced to act by the "outrageous" omission and has requested comprehensive studies on the effect that Britain leaving the EU will have on nine key economic sectors.
Among those to be assessed are financial services, construction and the creative industries, all of which are likely to be significantly affected by Brexit.
The other sectors to be covered are digital, life sciences, hospitality, culture, food and manufacturing, and science and technology (Independent).
It comes after Frances O'Grady sent a letter to Brexit secretary David Davis with Steve Turner, the TUC General Council's Europe spokesman, voicing anger about the lack of assessments.
They wrote: "People have a right to know what Brexit means for them, their families, and their livelihoods. They cannot afford for the Government to go into the most important negotiations in a generation blindfolded."
"Workers also need to know exactly what contingency plans are being put in place for their jobs and industries. They cannot be kept in the dark. We believe that the interests and concerns of working people should be government's highest priority.
"Ministers meet frequently with business leaders and must ensure they listen to the concerns of worker representatives on the same terms. We need a fresh, transparent, considered, and inclusive approach from government towards Brexit. The stakes are too high to leave things to chance (Huffington Post)."
The House of Lords' European Union Committee has today (December 7) published a report outlining the consequences of a "no deal'".
It is the most detailed analysis by any parliamentary committee of the question, and it leaves no doubt that such an outcome would be "deeply damaging" for Britain.
The Lords committee is careful to note that, in the event of "no deal," EU member states would feel the negative effects of a loss of trade with a major partner. However, the peers are in no doubt about the greater impact on Britain (FT).
Meanwhile Boris Johnson displayed a breathtaking Tory brass neck to the disbelieving world yesterday (December 7).
The Brexiteers' buffoon-in-chief was quizzed over his previous statement that the EU could "go whistle" for a large Brexit settlement.
May's chaotic Cabinet have subsequently admitted Britain will have to stump up a humongous £50billion as part of their release from the EU (Daily Record).
In depth
If the EU referendum was the moment the British electorate clashed with the establishment, 8 December 2017 was the day that the legal and economic consequences collided with its political promises. The joint divorce agreementhammered out in the intervening 528 days makes clear that little remains of the many red lines set out by Theresa May in her Lancaster House speech or party conference address of 2016.
The first, and biggest, concession is buried in paragraph 49 of the 15-page report published early on Friday morning. Its implications will be anything but quiet in the weeks to come, for it undermines the prime minister's previous insistence that Britain will be leaving the single market.
It states clearly: "In the absence of agreed solutions, the United Kingdom will maintain full alignment with those rules of the internal market and the customs union." In other words, the UK may not be a member of the single market, or have any direct ability to shape its rules in future, but it could yet have to play by them in perpetuity (Guardian).

Day's Best: Medal of Honor awarded to Fort Carson veteran
By all accounts, the White House ceremony in which Fort Carson veteran Clinton Romesha was awarded the Medal of Honor was a moving one.
Romesha, who has retired from the Army, was honored for helping to "defend the indefensible" in a marathon firefight in Afghanistan in which 53 Army troops repelled more than 300 Taliban fighters.
Eight U.S. soldiers lost their lives in the battle, and Romesha suffered shrapnel wounds to his shoulder, arms and neck as he defended the remote outpost.
This is what the Colorado Springs Gazette said about Romesha's actions:
He killed more than 10 Taliban fighters that day using whatever weapons he could find in the burning outpost deep in Nuristan province, Afghanistan, his citation said.
He fired his own rifle, an M4. He used an MK-48, a machine gun. He picked up a Dragunov — a sniper rifle used by the Afghan National Army —and later hurled hand grenades at attacking insurgents.
And, he called in airstrikes that killed 30 Taliban fighters, the citation said.
He did nearly all of that after suffering shrapnel wounds to his shoulder, arm and neck — wounds Romesha didn't acknowledge until another soldier spoke up. Some of the shrapnel needed to be pulled from his neck.
He risked further injury by running into raining gunfire to recover his fallen comrades.
Romesha received a standing ovation from the 200 people who attended the ceremony, which also was intended to honor those who died in the fight.
From the moment Romesha's precocious 18-month-old son walked on stage before the ceremony started, charming the audience with his peek-a-boo antics, to the somber ceremony in which President Obama put the medal around Romesha's neck as his eyes watered, it was an emotional event.
Now retired and living in North Dakota, Romesha had served two tours in Iraq. He is the fourth living Medal of Honor recipient for honored for their actions in Iraq or Afghanistan.
Romesha rose to the occasion in the most difficult circumstances.
"Our troops should not ever be put in a position where they have to defend the indefensible," Obama said. "That's what these soldiers did for each other in sacrifice driven by pure love."

10 Safe Buying and Selling Tips for Kijiji / Craigslist
1. Don't give out personal information
Avoid listing any personal information on Kijiji or other online classified sites. Most of the classified websites, if not all, offer to act as the middle man for initial communication between potential buyers and sellers. An account is set up, and the potential buyer will leave a message for the seller with information for further communication. There is no need to list your name, phone number, address, email or any other personal information. Give only the necessary information to sell the product or service. Also, be aware that a full name and address can be obtained simply from a reverse-lookup of a home phone number; you can use this, but so can the other party.
2. Google the Buyer/Seller's name
It's not a bad idea to do a quick Google search of the name of the other party. Just type their name in the Google search bar and see what comes up. If they have a past with the law, it will likely come up in a search and help you avoid a sketchy transaction.
3. Always bring a friend with you
Have a friend come with you to buy/sell the items. The safety in numbers can remove the opportunity for a bad situation.
4. Ask about history of item being sold
Let's be honest here, we don't know for sure that the items being sold are not stolen or acquired illegally. Don't be afraid to ask about the merchandise before you buy. If you get the vibe that something doesn't feel right, maybe it's something you might want to pass on.
5. Meet during daylight hours
We live in a busy world, and we all seem to be in a race against time. We work all day, then come home to make dinner, feed the kids, clean up after dinner, and the list goes on with many more routine tasks that fill up the day. Sometimes it may seem that a late evening meeting would be more convenient; but is it really necessary? Stay visible in well-lit areas when possible.
6. Meet in a public place
Make arrangements to meet in a public place to show or sell items. Consider meeting in a parking lot of large chain store, a coffee shop or even at a park. There is no need to show a complete stranger the valuables you have in your house, or introduce a complete stranger to your family's home unnecessarily.
7. Use generic photos
There is no benefit to including identifying information in the pictures such as people, pets or front of houses with street numbers. Pictures should show the items in question with little else in the picture. Again, why show the contents of your home to strangers unnecessarily?
8. Payment
It is not uncommon to meet at a bank for exchanges for large amounts of money. It feels more secure and makes for a great public place to meet when purchasing from people on Kijiji or Craigslist.
9. Use common sense
When listing valuable items, take the precautions necessary to ensure your safety. Expensive jewelry, pricy electronics and other valuables can attract individuals with less than friendly intentions. Follow the steps above and remove opportunities to be a victim.
10. Follow your gut
If something feels off, and you don't feel like things are on the up and up, get out. Is it really worth it to put yourself in a potentially dangerous situation? Probably not. If your Spidey senses start tingling, get out.

"I am the Lord your God. You must not do as they do in Egypt, where you used to live, and you must not do as they do in the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you. Do not follow their practices." (Leviticus 18:2-3, NIV)
Leviticus 18 is the most extensive treatment of sexual ethics in the Bible, and it begins with God telling the Israelites not to do what the cultures around them were doing. As Mark Rooker points out in The New American Commentary, "it was in the sexual realm particularly that the Israelites were aware of their differences with the Canaanites."1
I recently spoke with a pastor who was ranting about how Christians today are too concerned with legislating sexual relationships between consenting adults. He said, "It's time to get out of the bedroom and into the streets. We need to stop worrying about what people do in the privacy of their bedrooms and start serving the poor, feeding the hungry, and loving the lonely." But I think Leviticus 18 demonstrates that not only does God care about the poor, He also is concerned with what we do in the privacy of our bedrooms.
The church today is in a similar position as the nation of Israel was a few thousand years ago. It is in the sexual realm, particularly, that Christians are aware of our differences with the surrounding culture. The Bible clearly teaches throughout its pages in both testaments that marriage is a lifelong commitment between one man and one woman, and any sexual relationships outside of marriage are sinful.2 As unpopular as it is, that is the standard to which God calls us, and perhaps the greatest opportunity we have to be set apart from the world.
As we pursue a holy life, we must remember to show grace and love to those around us–especially to people who have not given their lives to Jesus. Jesus regularly interacted with people, including prostitutes, who were involved in lifestyles and sexual practices that violated God's Word. Yet, Jesus treated them with love, even while inviting them to repent and live a different way. Let us, like Jesus, be known for our love as well as our purity. If you struggle with sexual sin, please seek help. This is one area where we need the accountability and encouragement of a brother or sister in Christ in order to win the victory.

I can hardly believe this is happening! Berlin's first international queer music festival is LANDING. And look at that line up! CRYSTAL WATERS? Aerea Negrot? David Hoyle? Jonny Woo? And they just added Peaches - her first show in Berlin for 5 years no less. Natürlich, my brother Alexander Geist, will be playing on the last day of the festival because it wouldn't be a party without him now would it?
The festival is brought to you by Pansy and Scout, two of Berlin's hardest working, most relentlessly ambitious scene queens who have lit up the city's nightlife with their presence. It's wonderful to see such a homegrown initiative like this scale such giddy heights, and come out swinging on an international scale. Kudos to them for their immense work, here's a chatette with them up on the blog of our dear pals at Out There magazine.
And here's the timetable for Sunday, where you can see Alexander Geist play live. It's a homecoming show, the first gig in Berlin of 2015, after shows in Brazil, Istanbul, London, Utrecht and Paris. Simply cannot wait.

Fun Fall Pajama Trends For the Entire Family!9.12.2017
Collaborative Post
Unfortunately, the warmer days are drawing to a close, which means that it is time to kit the family out with warmer clothes. That includes buying new pajamas, for everyone. This is especially important if you are the type of family that likes to change into their PJs and curl up on the sofa together to watch a film before bed.
When it comes to women's pajamas there are numerous options. Fashion retailers know just how important this item of clothing is, so make sure their new designs are both appealing and cosy. This year is no exception.
Stylish loungewear
Perhaps the biggest trend is the fact that the emphasis is on loungewear rather than nightwear. A lot of retailers are offering lightweight versions of clothing items that are specifically designed be worn around the house as well as in bed.
Textured fleeces are great examples of this. These can easily be worn over a nightshirt and a pair of jogging bottoms as an alternative to a bulky dressing gown.
In some stores, you can also pick up fleece leggings. These are substantially warmer than most other types of pajama bottoms. They are ideal for wearing around the house, so you can delay having to put the heating on or turn the thermostat down a degree.
Jersey nightwear
Another fabric you rarely see used to make pajamas is being put to good use. Jersey is renowned for its flexibility as well as its warmth, so it really is ideal for wearing in bed. They are super soft too, so they feel good against your skin.
If the way your clothes feel is important to you, consider investing in a pair of satin pajamas. They are at the more expensive end of the price spectrum but are a great addition to any wardrobe. If you are living on a tight budget consider asking for a set as a special Christmas or birthday present.
Surprisingly, for such a delicate fabric, the majority are machine washable. However, you should always double check that this is indeed the case before buying a set.
Oversized tops
If you tend not to wear a traditional PJ top because you find it too restrictive you will be pleased to see that supersize tops are the norm, for 2017. These allow for better freedom of movement, so are an especially good option for someone who is a restless sleeper.
Lightweight onesies & playsuits
For those of you who move around a lot in bed, a onesie or playsuit can be a good option. Gone are the days when wearing onesies meant the possibility that you would have to go to bed dressed as a giant rabbit. This year's onesies are far more stylish and sophisticated. The majority of them are made from light, floaty floral fabrics, so they look far more feminine.
Choosing the right nightwear for you
The style of pajamas you choose to wear is very much a question of personal choice. However, there are some important practical considerations that you need to take into account. You can read about them in this article, which has been written by the National Sleep Foundation.
Thanks again to all the amazing companies and individuals that help keep Mumsy running!

Create a campaign that will deploy from fresh data each day
This section explains how to set up an automated campaign to be deployed daily.
You will need to set up an Import Template and a Scheduled Campaign to do this. For more information on how to set these up, please refer to relevant sections in this user guide.
Your Import Template should not initiate a campaign, but just import the data automatically every day.
Your Scheduled Campaign should use the operator Date Match. Date Match is a search that matches one of the contact's custom fields (e.g. Renewal Date) to the current day. For example, if you set ~Renewal [Date Match] 'DD/MM/YYYY'~ as a search string the contact will only be sent this campaign when their Renewal Date is equal to today's precise date.
If you were to set the search string ~Renewal [Date Match] 'DD/MM'~ then the contact would be sent the campaign on today's date every year. This is applicable for things like birthdays and anniversaries.
Using these two templates together means that whenever you upload new data, your contacts will be added to all the other contacts you have, and every time the scheduled campaign deploys it will deploy to the contacts that have a Renewal Date today.
Using "Date Match" to set up a schedule in Campaign Manager
Campaign Manager can now allow you to set up a campaign that will go at a specific time either daily, weekly or monthly, this type of campaign is called a schedule. You can create a schedule which searches your database each day for contacts with a date field matching today's date to send a message to. This could be for a birthday, anniversary or customer journey message.
To set up this type of schedule you must do several things;
- Add a column to your data file to include the date in a simple format (e.g. dd/mm/yyyy)
- Update your existing data or import new data with this field
- Set up a campaign schedule
The field in your data file must use the same date format throughout. If you want to send a birthday or anniversary message each year, then use the format dd/mm so that the date is recurring. If you only want the message to go once then use the format dd/mm/yyyy, this will mean the message only goes on that unique date.
If you want to send messages to all your current customers on their birthdays then you can export all your data from Campaign Manager (by using the Search function) and reimport it with the additional column added. Alternatively if you want to import new data to send to, then simply include the column on the file.
To set up a Schedule, you need to start campaign set up as usual. On the Contact Search page you need to use the "Date Match" operator. So choose the column that contains the date from the first drop down, select "Date Match" from the operator list, and type your date format (e.g. dd/mm) in the value box. This will tell Campaign Manager that it needs to search the column you have specified for a date matching the format you have specified.
N.B. if at this stage Campaign Manager cannot find any contacts that match your search, you will still be able to continue, a campaign will not deploy to 0 contacts.
The next steps of campaign set up are as normal; name your campaign, choose your response options and type your message body.
You can select the Schedule Options on the Campaign Options page; this is where you tell Campaign Manager how frequently you want to send your message (and as such, how frequently you want it to search for a date match). If you choose daily, you can select a time, and Campaign Manager will search the column you have specified for a date in the specified format that matches today. This is the option you would choose for birthdays and anniversaries.
Continue and complete your campaign set up as normal. Click Schedule when you are happy with the set up and your campaign is ready to deploy. It will deploy according to the Schedule Options every time it finds contacts that match today's date.
You can continue to import data with the specified date field populated and Campaign Manager will pick them up when today is equal to their date.

Market-based compensation
Market-based compensation uses salary survey data to match pay with rates paid in the external market. It's not a job factor evaluation system but can be used to develop an internal job worth hierarchy.
Its advantage is that it takes into consideration external practices/competition, a necessity for organizations that must offer competitive pay. Its disadvantage is that it relies on accurate survey data and internal pay equity is of less importance.
In a perfect world, you'd be able to find market data for all of your positions. You'll probably obtain data, however, on a sample of your job titles, which is why many companies rely on benchmark jobs to determine market rates. Benchmarking is identifying a selection of your positions that have "benchmark" characteristics. For example, positions that are common across industries, represent a sizable workforce, are common among different employers or competitors for your talent, and represent a range of your jobs. "Benchmarking" a selection of common positions can greatly assist in matching positions. If the benchmarked positions represent a broad enough range of your organization's jobs, the ranking method of job evaluation can flush-out pay ranges for those positions where survey data is not available. In other words, you use salary data for the benchmark jobs to establish salary ranges for comparable positions within your organization.
Another option is to use data from multiple jobs that, when blended, represent a non-benchmark position. For example, if you have an accountant position but the incumbent in that position also is responsible for purchasing materials and supplies, you can blend the data for a "benchmark" accountant and a "benchmark" purchasing agent to create a market rate for your hybrid position by combining a percentage of each.
Salary surveys
Selecting two or more appropriate survey(s) is the first step in market-based pricing. Using more than one salary survey provides a more accurate view of the market and reduces the potential for error when assigning a salary rate or range.
The next challenge is matching your organization's positions to the positions available in the survey. You're probably not going to find every title in your organization in any one salary survey, or maybe in any salary survey. Even when you do find your job titles, you have to be compare the job duties and requirements to ensure it's a match for your job. A good rule of thumb is that if the job description matches 80% or more of your job then it's a strong match. If it matches less than 70%, though, it's not a match and you need to keep looking for a closer match for your position.
Salary surveys provide an array of data averages and percentiles. In compensation comparisons the median survey rate is most commonly used because it is less influenced by high or low pay extremes. Other data elements such as the 25th percentile, the 75th percentile and the mean can be helpful. But selecting data is a process that can be as simple or complicated as the organization elects. It's important to determine your market position as part of establishing your pay philosophy/strategy before beginning a market analysis of your jobs so you can consistently apply market data to your positions.
Good salary surveys group data by organizational characteristics such as staff size, industry, and location. Use of the data from these groupings can create a composite average that profiles the organization. This sort of data helps provide a match of participating survey organizations to the "profile" of the organization.
Most salary surveys include many of the same elements. For example:
- Effective data of the data
- Job Summary including education & experience
- Vital data including the mean, median (50th) , 25th Percentile, and 75th Percentile
- Data Sorts including location, budget, number of employees, organization type, and number of survey participants
Below is a view of what salary survey data may look like.
Check back next week for the conclusion, part 3 …

While walking around the mall, we saw a Coach store. He told me he would buy me a purse. Here's the one i picked:
When I told the girl which one I wanted she got a slip out and asked for my name. When I told her she said, "Are you serious?" I figured it was her name, but she said, "That's the name of the bag!" It was meant to be. They are shipping it to our house for free. I will have it in 3-5 business days.
Tonight we are going to a place called Mamma Lucia's for dinner. We may go see Friday the 13th after that. I mean it's Valetine's Day so maybe we'll see Jason cut out a heart, LOL. I'm just kidding. The older I get, the more these slasher movies freak me out. Used to be I drug Tyler to them, now the last two I've seen literally made me scream and everything. Who knows why I'm more freaked now?!

Will The Real Terrorists Please Step Forward?
Source: phillyburbs
BURLINGTON TOWNSHIP — The scenario has played out in real life across America: Gunfire echoes through a school and students are held hostage.In the great scheme of things is this terribly important? No, not really. However, I think it does show the depths and desperation to not point a finger at those who are committing literally thousands of terror attacks all over the world, and nonsense protestations aside, committing plenty of acts of terror right here at home.
But police, faculty and staff lived out their own make-believe version yesterday of just such a tragedy at Burlington Township High School, complete with Kevlar-clad officers, armed suspects and students portraying the wounded and dead.
The purpose of the drill was to test the reactions of police, faculty and administration.
"You perform as you practice," Superintendent Chris Manno said prior to the exercise. "We need to practice under conditions as real as possible in order to evaluate our procedures and plans so that they're as effective as possible."
The mock terror attack involved two irate men armed with handguns who invaded the high school through the front door. They pretended to shoot several students in the hallway and then barricaded themselves in the media center with 10 student hostages.
Two Burlington Township police detectives portrayed the gunmen. Investigators described them as members of a right-wing fundamentalist group called the "New Crusaders" who don't believe in separation of church and state. The mock gunmen went to the school seeking justice because the daughter of one had been expelled for praying before class.
I love when I'm talking to a leftist asshat about terrorism and they trot out McVeigh or the abortion bomber as though these statistically insignificant incidents, which by the way I fully acknowledge (with the minor caveat that McVeigh was most decidedly NOT a Christian and may I recommend reading the Third Terrorist?)
But these handful of "christian" bad guys are trotted out with faithful regularity by those who are simply desperate to prove that Christianity is just as bad.
Uh-huh, sorry to piss on your parade guys but no, it's just not true. No matter how much you may personally loathe Christianity, that hardly makes Christians terrorists, does it? In fact we know precisely who the terrorists are, and some of us even have the nuts to call them by their proper name.
Get over it and take a big bite out of a reality sandwich, it'll do ya some good!

Mmmm mmm… cupcakes! Aren't these little crochet cupcakes adorable? Almost good enough to eat, but so cute that you couldn't!
My son got a play kitchen for his birthday last year so I thought it would be nice for him to have some cupcakes to bake. I remembered seeing a pattern on RepeatCrafterMe a few months prior so I went and dug it up.
The yarn I used for this project was:
–Red Heart Super Saver in Rouge, Coffee, Gold, Spring Green and Pale Plum
–Lion Brand's Vanna's Choice in Honey (for the vanilla bottom and the caramel topping)
–Loops & Threads Impeccable in Aran, Lippy and Aqua
After making 2 vanilla cupcakes like in the pattern, we decided we need some chocolate ones too!
So I followed the same pattern but used different colors and excluded the cherry and sprinkles. Instead I embroidered a yummy trail of caramel drizzle on top.
Trust me, if they were real they would be delicious!

A few weeks ago my husband was in Germany at a business meeting where he was served watermelon with feta cheese for dessert. He made a point of telling me how good it was–surprising since he's not the most adventurous eater. If he hadn't shared that with me, I may have never tried this Strawberry Cantaloupe Salad with Mint & Feta.
I'm so glad I decided to give this recipe a try! Don't be afraid of the unique combination of ingredients. People eat apples with cheese, right? So feta in a fruit salad isn't so strange.
My husband and I both loved the combination of sweet and savory ingredients. Even the 8 year-old liked it!
The original recipe did call for an entire cup of feta, but I thought that was way too much. If you really love feta though, feel free to add more.
This salad would be the perfect accompaniment to all of your favorite summer grilling recipes. I highly recommend giving it a try!
Strawberry Cantaloupe Salad with Mint & Feta
- 1/2 cantaloupe, seeded, rind removed, and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 3 cups hulled, quartered strawberries
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Pinch of black pepper
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 15 medium fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
- In a medium bowl, combine cantaloupe, strawberries, balsamic vinegar, olive oil and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Stir in feta and fresh mint just before serving.

Hiya Lovelies!
So this post is just what the title says. I will be giving a little personal update and reveal the blog theme for August. If you have been following me on Instagram (@fashionssenseblog) and the blog's FB Page then you may already know the updates. For those who strictly for the blog here is the tea.
A New Diagnosis
So, I have a new diagnosis for what has been going on with me and it is a relief and has stirred up feelings of anger and resentment in me as well. I have a little-known condition called lipedema. The short definition of this illness is the body deposits fat abnormally from my hips down to the ankles and in my upper arms. Diet and exercise do not get rid of this abnormally stored fat. This condition has four stages and I am in stage four of it.
Lipedema on its own is not life-threatening but it can cause other conditions and affect your mobility. Well, it has caused me to develop lymphedema and it is the reason why I lost the ability to walk back in 2014. It causes my skin to be very sensitive in the affected areas, I bruise easily as a result, and I deal with frequent occurrences of cellulitis. Apparently, I've had this for most of life. Most doctors are not well versed in this condition so they often just misdiagnose you as being fat and pressure you to have bariatric surgery which would do nothing.
I am thankful to God that I avoided going the bariatric surgery route. I actually was going to have it but was waiting for the lymphedema to be manageable first. I am glad I waited. I do need have liposuction treatments done because this is the only way to remove the fat. This will be an ongoing treatment for me. This explains so much and why I always said that my body does not operate the way textbooks say. Before this affected my mobility, I exercised regularly and always had a way smaller waist and stomach than my size would dictate. I could do anywhere from 200 to 250 squats a day yet my pant size was still a 6x.
Along with some of my body mysteries being solved, I do have anger and resentment within me. I'm not so much angry with the doctors who did not catch this because it is not well known. I do harbor a lot of resent with some people close to me. I think about all of the times I was made to feel guilty for my size, how I eventually became a burden because of it and was told so often in different ways. Everything was my fault. Now that I know that it wasn't all my doing (I will hold some of the blame for giving in to the tiredness I began to feel when my condition worsened because I should have kept pressing on instead of letting the fatigue overwhelm me) and some of them know as well, I still haven't received an apology for the way they made me feel about myself. For the first time in my life, I do feel that I need counseling to learn how to deal with these feelings.
Still No Damn Wheelchair
I am on Medicaid because being immobile for over four years means no job that offers insurance or making enough money to buy it. Medicaid is playing the long game with approving my wheelchair. Even though I am progressing with walking, I don't have the endurance or stamina I need to be able to do things like wash a sink full of dishes, stand at the sink to brush my teeth and wash my face. I can't use medical transport without the wheelchair. I don't have the stamina to wait in a doctor's office. I get why they are holding off because my wheelchair is going to be expensive and they can't do the rental thing like they do with hospital beds and such. My chair is a bariatric wheelchair due to my weight and hip and thigh spread.
I hope they just approve it so I can actually start making the medical appointments I need to bring me fully back to health and to regain my mobility completely. I mean the sooner this happens the sooner I can get out here and start making a living for myself again. Ya girl is tired of being broke and relying on others for every damn thing.
Physical and Occupational Therapies Have Ended
Last week my physical therapy ended and the week before that occupational therapy ended. I still need more therapy but without the wheelchair, there is no more they can do to help me along. See I need the wheelchair so my legs and feet can get used to walking outside. The wheelchair is needed because of fatigue. I need to learn how to do car transfers using the wheelchair. Once again the delay with the wheelchair is halting progress. Even if I can't do home therapy anymore, I would need a wheelchair for outpatient therapy at a center.
August Blog Theme
Now that I have depressed the hell out of you, let's get to this month's theme. On the blog's Facebook page I advised that I would be reviewing some false lashes. I will be posting those reviews this month along with some tricks and tips I learned along the way.
So that is everything, lovelies. Stay tuned for those lash reviews this August!

2 Timothy 3:
2For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, 4treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these. 6For among them are those who enter into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins, led on by various impulses, 7always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of depraved mind, rejected in regard to the faith. 9But they will not make further progress; for their folly will be obvious to all, just as Jannes's and Jambres's folly was also.

Fixing post-patch problems: Auditing revision levels
After a patch or service pack installation, you could find that altered components are not working with your applications. You may need to audit your revision levels. Contributor Serdar Yegulalp discusses four ways to determine the revision levels of given components, including links to some handy tools.
Sometimes after adding a service pack or patch to a system, you're faced with the possibility that a component either wasn't upgraded correctly or was upgraded to the wrong revision. There are a number of ways to determine what the revision of a given component is, either on-disk or live in memory, but the effectiveness of the method you choose will depend on your exact needs. Here are your choices:
1. In Explorer. The most obvious way to determine the revision of a component is just to right-click on it in Explorer and select Properties | Version. Or, you could switch to the Details view in Explorer and show the File Version and Product Version as columns. But, with this view, you can't easily export the results. Note that .DLLs will have a Version tab, but .EXE files will not, so this limits its usefulness a bit.
2. Through Process Explorer. The endlessly useful Process Explorer utility from Sysinternals lists the revision levels of all loaded components. If you click on the name of a process and select View | Lower Panel View | Show DLLs, you can see all of the loaded DLLs in use by that process as well as their revision levels. This is only useful for running processes, but the program does support exporting the information shown to a delimited text file. Note that it may take several seconds for the program to poll all the used .DLLs for a given process.
For more information:
3. Through an external resource. This method is best if you want to find out what other revisions there might be for a process or component. For Microsoft components, Microsoft itself has a site called DLL Help. There you can look up any component from a Microsoft or Microsoft-supported product, see all of the tracked revisions for the component and learn more about each of them. However, DLL Help is only useful for Microsoft components, not third-party apps.
4. Through a script. This option is the most effective way to report back on a whole slew of components at once. For instance, use a script if you want to audit all of the items in a directory that represent what a patch will put into place, and you want to see a quick side-by-side comparison of component revision information. One such script is available online at JSWare and, with a little work, it can be used to obtain the revision information for all files that match a wildcard or are in a directory.

So I received the UGLEE Pen for my honest review. I have had a history of tendonitis in my hands and thumbs. This all stems from be a crafty and artistic personality.
The Uglee Pen is an ergonomic pen that is comfortable and allows for a relaxing grip. I have used this pen since receiving it from everything from writing my grocery lists to ALL day long at work.
This is by far the best pen I have ever used to relieve the cramping and pain in my hand.
Besides it being comfortable and relaxing to use, this pen also flows smoothly and without hiccups in the ink.
This is the description Uglee Pen provides:
The UGLee Pen is good for everyone who writes (even just a grocery list), and is especially helpful to people who experience pain and discomfort when writing, for example those with arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, etc., and for all children who are learning to write and are developing fine motor skills.
It is also helpful for special-needs children who find holding a pen or pencil properly difficult. And for high-school and college students who have to take copious notes, this pen helps keep hands and fingers from cramping.
Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Suzanne Swannie is a Halifax-based designer and weaver who creates functional textiles, tapestries and large architectural installations for private and public environments. She also weaves pictorial tapestries and is known for unique fabric constructions such as the gallery installation Repassage. Both the woven works and the constructions display the "Danish Modern" principle of repetition of modular units as a means of generating surfaces and structures with a typical emphasis on rich colour harmonies.
Swannie's integrated sensibility—the legacy of her Scandinavian training—allows her to move adroitly between industry, craft and the art world, gaining from each, apologizing to none. The retrospective selection includes tapestry works from the 1970s; pieced and appliqueed wall textiles created in collaboration with the Mi'kmaq women of Eskasoni Reserve (1977-1980); production household textiles (1980s); the creased-silk installation Repassage (1986); subsequent tapestry carpets and their paper studies (1990s, 2000s); and a major figurative tapestry triptych completed in 2007.
The exhibition is organized by the Mt. St. Vincent University Art Gallery. The accompanying catalogue contains essays by Sheila Stevenson, Halifax, Rachel Gotlieb, Toronto and Ron Shuebrook, Guelph.
Lecture: Suzanne Swannie and Danish Modernism in Canada with Rachel Gotlieb
Wednesday September 16, 6:30 pm

Nintendo Switch demos can be played as much as you want
Now you can play Nintendo demos as much as you like.
And that's another wall destroyed by Nintendo. Remember the time when the Wii U and 3DS demos could only be played a predefined number of times? Well, that won't happen on the Switch. To be honest we all kinda hated that limit. When you want to have a taste of a game and figure if you want to buy it, it's really not helping to have someone tell you that you can't try it as much as you'd want.
This lifted limit was found by the twitter user @VOOK64. According to him, there is no play limit on Nintendo Switch demos. Oh and you also can't login to a user profile when playing. Maybe that something Nintendo thought of just in case you'd want to save your party.
The demos don't ask which user you want to use! But there is no play limit!

Last year, Iron Mountain moved our corporate headquarters about ½ mile within downtown Boston to One Federal Street. The move marked a number of milestones and the new space has received some great recognition. It also demonstrated how thinking about environmental and social responsibility can deliver unexpectedly good outcomes for people and for the business.
Awards and Recognitions:
First our construction of offices on the 6th and 7th floors achieved LEED Gold certification by the US Green Building Council. In addition, our Design firm, Margulies Perruzzi Architects (MPA) was awarded the prestigious CoreNet Global New England's annual Best New Workplace Award.
LEED stands for Leadership in Environment and Energy Design and it has become the benchmark for "green" building. While features like water saving fixtures and efficient LED lighting contributed to a smaller environmental footprint, much of the focus of this space was on the human element. Designing windows and office locations to have the maximum day lighting not only reduces electricity use, it has a big impact on people. Other features that contribute healthy workplaces include selecting materials with low or no chemical outgassing. In the end, virtually every aspect of the space, from wood selection to lay-out has been thought about differently. It's a great example of the shift in thinking that goes with sustainable business and it's a demonstration of how Corporate Responsibility is becoming how we do everything.
New thinking delivers great results:
This new way of thinking about our business often leads to solutions that seem very strange at first – and then seem brilliantly obvious once they're accomplished. A great example is that the greenest (and lowest cost) space at the HQ is the space we didn't build. Our footprint at One Fed is actually smaller than our old Headquarters space and has more people assigned. That sounds like a formula for a tight squeeze, but in fact individual space was not sacrificed even though there are double the conference rooms and more amenities. How can we have more people in less space with better amenities? That's impossible. The key was rethinking the office by rethinking the way we get work done. The result was mobile mountaineers – people who have the flexibility to work from home or other IM facilities in exchange for using shared office space at HQ. This means about 150 people are comfortably located in space that would have held only 100 in personal cubical set-ups. Unlocking the potential of a flexible work schedule is not easy, but it's delivered great results for people and for the business. Its an example of how a new kind of thinking about the business is delivering unexpectedly great results for employees and for the environment. More about IM's innovation for flexible work environment and mobile mountaineers in this case study published in FM Mag

This is incredible for me to write this.
While I open the browser and prepared to write, nothing comes out. I don't know what I should tell you.
Let's started from the very beginning, first sight.
I love your smile, it's old-school but, it just like sunshine. I think that's why you're adorable, and most of the ppl love you at first sight.
The most admire thing to me, is you like photography, and you give up your pilot job so that you can spend all your time on what you love.
you hold an ecological village in Indonesia, it sounds incredible. This is the thing that I never think about. I'm always doing things for myself. I feel shame on it now.
You know, you have talent, and you walk your own way, do whatever you like. The freedom. That's so fantastic.
I don't know you, and probably I will never know you. But I hope you're a good person. good to your family, good to other ppl, good to your girl. I wish you hv a beautiful life.
I'll write to you again, I think.
Good nite.
