Jordan J. Cohen, MD
▪ The curriculum in internal medicine for medical students and residents is being driven increasingly by the service demands of our teaching hospitals and is badly in need of fundamental reform. In reasserting the primacy of education as the driving force for the curriculum, numerous tasks must be done to achieve successful reform. These tasks are well within the scope of the several organizations that command leadership positions in the discipline of internal medicine and that represent the spectrum of activities required to discharge the specialty's public responsibility. These organizations include the Association of Professors of Medicine (APM), the Association of Program Directors in Internal Medicine (APDIM), the Society of General Internal Medicine (SGIM), The Residency Review Committee for Internal Medicine (RRC-IM), the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM), the American College of Physicians (ACP), the American Society of Internal Medicine (ASIM), and the Federated Council of Internal Medicine (FCIM). The challenge posed by the need for curriculum reform is to rouse these organizations to concerted action. Each of the seven organizations must assume a specific role and a unique set of responsibilities in the epic reforms envisioned.

I am a 23-year-old singer-songwriter from Manchester, UK, who creates electronic pop music with heartfelt, autobiographical lyrics. My songs are written about my own experiences, which I think gives my music an honesty that is not always seen in commercial pop music, making it easy for people to relate to. I have been writing songs at the piano since the age of 15 and released my first single, Stuck In Limbo, in 2015 following my graduation from university.
My new EP, Experiments, was produced by Mansfield based 'The Producers' and is due for release on April 27th 2017. The EP features singles 'Take It All' and 'Lead Me Down'.
"Manchester singer/songwriter Sally Caitlin's voice glides across an electropop landscape in the club track "Lead Me Down." Her strong honeyed voice is a pleasure to listen to." – R8 Singer Blog
"'Lead Me Down' makes Caitlin sound like a female version of Flawes; dark electrifying beats and tastey pop synths fused with narrative lyrics create the ultimate pop tune." – Indie Central Music
The title of the EP, 'Experiments', has a triple meaning as it refers to: the experimentation with styles and sub-genres on the EP, the experimental nature of growing up and making mistakes (featured in the lyrical themes) and also a reference to the Chemistry Degree I completed before entering the music industry. There is also a narrative woven between the tracks which appears if you listen to the tracks in order of the track list. Whilst rooted in pop, I think the wide range of genres that influenced 'Experiments' is obvious, resulting in a varied and mature selection of electro-pop songs with an edge.
The Experiments EP has been supported by several radio stations so far including Unity Radio Manchester, Identify Radio, Shout Radio, and Salitaire Radio and I have recorded acoustic sessions for Unity, CAT Radio and Fuse FM. I was also one of five grand finalists in the Pure Radio's Stockport's Finest Competition in 2016. Videos have been shot for all five of the tracks on the EP and will be released in order of the EP's track list on blogs and social media. I was also really happy to hear that all five tracks from the Experiments EP were semi-finalists in the UK Song-writing Contest for 2016 across various categories.
Lead Me Down was released on all major digital distributors on February 16th and Experiments will be released on April 27th. You can find me performing around the Manchester and Cheshire areas and debuting new material at showcases and open mic nights. I am also going to be performing in Camden as part of the Camden Clique showcase for emerging talent on May 19th. More information on my music can be found by following me on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube.

At this point in the tutorial you've learned how to create a roadmap from scratch and using a template as well as how to add items to a roadmap manually or by importing a CSV file. In this article, we look at how to add a field to a roadmap.
When adding a field to a roadmap, you can select a field that already exists in the Roadmunk account or you can create and add a new field.
Add an existing field to your roadmap
The simplest and easiest place to add a field is the Items Tables. For the tutorial, we're going back to the roadmap you created from scratch in Step 1. Create a new roadmap, and to which you added an item in Step 2. Create and import items.
Adding the field
1. Click the Add Field (+) icon on the far right of the table header.
2. In the dropdown, start typing to search for the field or scroll down to find it, and then select it.
The field gets added to the roadmap's Items Table and you can now enter a value.
Entering a field value
Roadmunk has four types of fields: Free-Form Text, List, Multi-Select List and Numeric. To populate numeric or free-form text fields, you just type in the value. To populate list or multi-select list fields, you select values from a list. For the tutorial, we're adding Status, which is a list field.
3. Click inside the item's new field to view the available values.
4. In the field value dropdown, start typing to search for the value or scroll down to find it, then select it. For the tutorial, we're selecting Planning.
You've just added and populated your first roadmap field. Next we look at how to create a new field before adding it.
Create and add a new field
If you want to add a field to a roadmap and you don't see it in the Add Field dropdown (steps 1 and 2 above), it means the field does not exist in the Roadmunk account and needs to be created. One of the great things about Roadmunk is that you can create a new field right from the roadmap you want to add it to. Here's how.
1. In the Items Table, click the Add Field (+) icon on the far right of the table header.
2. At the bottom of the dropdown, click + Create New Field to open the New Field dialog.
Inline Field Creation
The Items Table also has support for inline Field creation, letting you simply and quickly add Fields to you roadmap.
- Navigate to the Items Table
- Locate the Add Field plus sign
- Start typing the Field you want to create
- Click on the + New "Field Name" Field dropdown
- Select the Field Type you want to create
NOTE: When choosing to create a List or Multi-Select list Field Type, a modal will appear allowing you to input field values.
Creating a Free-Form Text field
1. In the New Field dialog, select Free-Form Text in the Type dropdown.
2. Enter a Name for the field, e.g, Comments or Notes.
3. Click Create Field.
Creating a Numeric field
1. In the New Field dialog, select Numeric in the Type dropdown.
2. Enter a Name for the field, e.g, Status or MRR.
3. Select the desired Number Format for either Currency, General or Percentage.
4. Choose the number of decimal places.
5. Click Create Field.
NOTE: When choosing Currency as your Number Format, you can then select your Currency Format to be either Euro, Pound or Dollar.
Creating a List or Multi-Select List field
List and Multi-Select List fields are created the same way. The only difference is that more than one value can be selected for a Multi-Select List field.
1. In the New Field dialog, select List or Multi-Select List in the Type dropdown.
2. Enter a Name for the field.
3. Enter the first value you want in the field's list and then click Add.
4. Keep adding values to the list in the same way.
5. To change the order of the values in the list, click and drag values to their new position.
6. To delete a value from the list, click the Delete icon.
7. When you're done adding and arranging values, click Create Field.
NOTE: Don't worry about getting the list right the first time. You can come back and edit the list of values at any time.
What's next?
Congratulations! You've now gotten through the three most important steps in getting started with Roadmunk roadmap: 1. Creating the roadmap, 2. Adding a roadmap item, 3. Adding a field to a roadmap and creating a new field. Next, we'll look at some features of the Items Table that make it easy for you to browse and edit your roadmap items (Step 4. Work with items in the Items Table).

John Metcalfe
John Metcalfe was CityLab's Bay Area bureau chief, covering climate change and the science of cities.
Speaking with emotion and seeming anger on Friday in front of the San Diego city council, Mayor Bob Filner announced he will tender his resignation, effective August 30, and apologized to the dozen-plus women who have accused him of sexual harassment.
"I had no intention to be offensive, to violate any physical or emotional space," said the 70-year-old Filner. "I was trying to establish personal relationships, but the combination of awkwardness and hubris I think led to behavior they found offensive." He denied outright having ever sexually harassed the women, but qualified he will "try to make amends in any suitable manner."
The city council accepted Filner's signed resignation and also a signed settlement agreement with the mayor. That settlement has been the subject of much recent speculation over whether San Diego's taxpayers will have to pay for the mayor's legal defense against the harassment claims. That will indeed be the case. In Friday's meeting, City Attorney Jan Goldsmith said his office would mount a joint defense with Filner in court, and that it would provide up to $98,000 if Filner decided to seek outside counsel.
"We, as with any employer in the private sector, have to step up to the plate," Goldsmith said. He added that if a court were to award damages against Filner, the city could try to wrangle a reimbursement from the mayor to cover the losses.
Goldsmith said the city decided settling was the best route because the recall process could take half a year to mount. That period of time would be marked by lot of negative publicity, he indicated. "Six more months of this would be devastating."
What is "this," exactly? As this site reported earlier:
The 70-year-old mayor has been under fire for the better part of a month, after several women, include the city's former chief operating officer, accused the mayor of unwanted sexual advances and inappropriate behavior. Among the racier allegations? The mayor's former press secretary has alleged that Filner once asked her to "get naked" and kiss him, and, another time, asked her to work without wearing panties.
In the hearing, Councilwoman Lorie Zapf echoed Goldsmith's words, albeit in a harsher manner. She called the mayor an "abusive man" whose "angry and demeaning behavior toward women has been directed at me personally on a number of occasions." Zapf nevertheless supported the settlement agreement because there are "no guarantees" the city would reach a recall and it could be stuck "in this predicament indefinitely." If Filner were to remain in office, she worried, his public battle against sex claims could bruise San Diego's economy to the tune of "millions" of dollars.
In his resignation speech, Filner blamed a cabal of entrenched political operatives that he alleges have controlled the city for 50 years (prior to his assuming office in 2012, of course). The "fight to control this city has become vicious and bloody," he said.
His ouster was an "affront to democracy" and a "political coup," he said. No allegations of sexual harassment have been "independently verified or proven in court," he said. "I have never sexually harassed anyone, but the hysteria that has been created, and many of you helped to feed, is the hysteria of a lynch mob."
The settlement deal will no doubt disappoint many in the city – a local-news poll shows overwhelming hatred for such an arrangement – and should irk self-described "feminist attorney" Gloria Allred, who is representing one of the accusers. As our own Emily Badger wrote:
Gloria Allred, the attorney representing many of the women who've complained of harassment, preemptively came out [on August 22] to urge the city not to pay off the mayor to leave.... Local news outlets are also reporting that Filner stands to receive as much as $82,000 a year in public pensions....
"If the deal requires that the city council pay him one dollar, then I for one think that they should vote against it," Allred said Thursday. "There should be no payoff for Mayor Filner. It would be a slap in the face to the mayor's many victims to see him get anything from the city of San Diego. His parting gift should be 'good riddance' instead of a handout."
The mayor has been on personal leave the past several weeks to seek counseling for his behavior. With him out of office, council president Todd Gloria will assume interim mayorship.
Filner was elected last year as the first Democratic mayor in the city since 1992. successfully running on a platform of job creation, public safety and improving relations with Tijuana.

15 Aug What's in a Blog?
Blogs differ not only in content but also with medium of presentation. Some blogs are entirely photographs while others paragraph after paragraph and some are even video blogs. As a writer, often times I forget that a blog need not be all words and the occasional picture. Your content can be nothing but videos. Perhaps this is your best avenue.
Now, a photographer would obviously want a blog to be primarily, if not entirely, photos. One could view slideshows and archives from weddings, theater shows and whatever the artist wants to feature. A graphic designer may benefit by showing their work with logos, developed websites and more. Finally, someone with a lot of information to present may find video to be their best option (such as the example Rochelle shared, The Art of Logo Design).
However, if your blog is solely videos or photos you may be worried about having enough words on your page to help SEO returns. No worries. Each photo and video has the option of adding titles, captions, descriptions and sometimes alternate titles. Place your keywords here and then add the keywords to your tag list. That will double the density of keywords while keeping everything relevant to your page.
Also, there is the advantage of having the best of both worlds. One can still narrate the artistic process with a few sentences here and there, separating the photo or video content while allowing for a nice pattern for the reader to follow (here's an example from a local Chicago photographer). Consistency is key. Remember how everything will look on your website down to the last detail of sharing options being embedded within each post versus the sharing options being just on the main page. It all comes down to your choice and how you want to represent and sell your brand.
Here we not only give you a blend of video, photo and written content but also a blend of services from website updates, logo development and print design straight from Chicago. Don't forget, we do it all… creatively.

DEL MAR — In an effort to promote contemporary art in the county, Del Mar resident Ann Berchtold launched Art San Diego in 2009 with 27 exhibitors that attracted a few thousand attendees.
This year's event, now under way at Balboa Park, features 63 booths, nine art labs and, for the first time, solo exhibits. It is expected to draw about 10,000 spectators.
"This is becoming a fantastic showcase for the San Diego art scene," Berchtold said. "It keeps growing."
Originally from Michigan, Berchtold came to Southern California to attend San Diego State University, where she earned a bachelor's degree in marketing, with a minor in fine arts.
She worked in event production for about 10 years, first at Rancho Valencia Resort, then at a Ritz-Carlton in Northern California.
"San Francisco has such a rich cultural scene," she said. "I wanted to promote that here because artists didn't have a lot of faith in San Diego. There weren't a lot of galleries for showcasing. We were losing a lot of great talent to Los Angeles and New York."
Berchtold, who comes from a family of artists, started SanDiegoArtist.com, a website for emerging artists.
That led to working in art galleries and eventually becoming the director of the L Street Gallery near the Omni Hotel downtown.
"Then I started visiting art fairs," Berchtold said. "The biggest one is Art Basel in Miami Beach. I wanted to do something similar here."
Art San Diego began at the Grand Del Mar four years ago. It moved to the Hilton San Diego Bayfront but outgrew that venue after two years.
"I hope we'll stay here at Balboa Park," Berchtold said, noting that attendance could increase to 12,000 because the event is not being held on Labor Day weekend for the first time.
The contemporary art fair will feature national and international galleries from places such as New Mexico, Colorado, Georgia, Mexico and Argentina showing works from more than 500 artists.
Several Los Angeles and San Diego galleries will also be featured.
North County artists include Solana Beach's Susan Street, Steve and Yvonne Maloney of Rancho Santa Fe and Gerrit Greve from Cardiff.
From Del Mar, where Berchtold lives with her husband and two children, exhibitors include Beyond the Border, Bunnye Meisel and Andrew Lutz.
The three-day event will include art, furniture, performances, video-based works, artistic interventions in public art labs and Made in San Diego exhibitions.
Participants can meet the artists and purchase any piece that is shown.
Exhibits are open Sept. 7 to Sept. 9. A three-day pass is $15 online and $20 at the door.
Art San Diego also helps kick off Arts Month San Diego, which will include Discover North County from Sept. 23 to Sept. 30
"I encourage everyone to come down for a staycation," Berchtold said. "There's something for everyone in your own backyard."
For more information, Google Art San Diego 2012 or Arts Month San Diego.

Motion and change define a glacier's life. Glaciers grow and shrink in response to changing climate. Typically, glacier movement occurs over long periods of time (hundreds to thousands of years), but within historic memory, such transformations in fewer than 100 years are not unknown.
Not all glaciers move slowly. For example, surging glaciers can flow quickly, sometimes traveling as much as ten to one hundred times faster than the normal rate of movement. Others may retreat within only a few decades, leaving once glaciated valleys blooming with vegetation again.
By their movement, glaciers mark change. For this reason, among others, scientists study glaciers. By monitoring glaciers over time and around the world, researchers construct valuable records of glacial activity and their response to climate variations.
By comparing contemporary observations with historical and environmental records, such as agricultural records, and prehistoric temperature or climate profiles, glaciologists acquire and provide an enhanced understanding of global processes and change.

Juniper slurps packet-optical outfit BTI Systems
SDN and NFV, apparently
Juniper Networks has announced it's going to acquire BTI Systems.
Once a packet-optical specialist, BTI Systems spent much of 2015 positioning itself into the software-defined networking (SDN) and network function virtualisation (NFV) markets. That work included giving its 8700 Series the ability to work with OpenDaylight SDN controllers.
Its Intelligent Cloud Connect product line is also a decent fit with Juniper's PTX Series, with both supporting label switched routing.
Jonathan Davidson, EVP for Juniper development and innovation, blogs that the acquisition will "accelerate the development of open and automated optical transport solutions that integrate with our NorthStar Controller."
NorthStar, launched in 2014, is an SDN WAN controller designed to provide automatic wide-area traffic engineering for IP/MPLS flows. BTI's technology would blur the line between the metro networks and the data center.
Juniper didn't put a price on BTI, meaning it didn't have to spend up big on the deal. Davidson's post merely notes that "the terms are not considered to be material to our financials," promising more detail in Q2 when the deal closes. ®

E-mail Aliases in Cloud Web Hosting
Creating an alias for any mailbox is very easy if you have a cloud web hosting package from us. You can do this from the Emails area of the Hepsia Control Panel, which is used to manage the website hosting accounts and it will take only a couple of mouse clicks. You are able to add or remove a lot of aliases at any moment and save time when you take care of the messages for a number of email addresses which you use - for example, numerous divisions inside a corporation or separate parts of a site. In case you receive e-mails from multiple email addresses in a single mailbox, but different people should have a copy of specific emails, you can combine the aliases with mail forwarding and/or email filters, which can be set up through Hepsia.
E-mail Aliases in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You can generate and use aliases easily when you've got a semi-dedicated server account with us and we take care of the email service for your domains. It requires a couple of mouse clicks in the Emails area of the Hepsia Hosting Control Panel to create or delete an alias for a specific mailbox and it is easy to set up as much aliases as you need for any exact purpose. For example, for those who run a web site with many sections where you offer many services, you can create a unique alias and all emails sent for all departments can head to the exact same mailbox for easier supervision and processing. Of course, if a portion of the e-mails are supposed to go to a person accountable for a particular service, it is possible to combine using aliases along with our mail filters and email forwarding.

I don't know what the name of the show is but after watching this video I couldn't care less.
All I care about is content.
I can tell you this, though;
It's in French and it has cute girls in T-shirts crawling over a pipe.
Probably not a good idea to watch at work, but nothing too risque to get in trouble over.
If more game shows were like this in the States... I'd probably start watching TV again.

Just wanted to send a HUGE thank you to Flash Uniforms for the awesome job your company did on helping Benara Bowmen create our new club shirts. All of our members were very happy with the finished result and we have many compliments and enquiries from other clubs! The wonderful customer service you gave to myself and Sue, the patience and hard work of your design department made the whole experience enjoyable. We have been customers of yours now for quite some time and we are pleased that we chose to continue using your business for our new uniforms.
We "unveiled" our shirts at the recent Indoor State/National Competition on the 15/8/18 with Benara being represented by 22 archers, we looked pretty impressive on the line!!
I received the Yamba shirts yesterday, but I'm afraid to tell you there is a really big problem with the shirts! You see I think we can't wear them because they are too GOOD to wear, WOW what a great job you all have done with this design and making them. From ordering the shirts right through to design, manufacturing and receiving the final product has been so smooth. What a great company probably the best company I have ever dealt with and I have dealt with quite a lot. The team at Flash Uniforms are a credit to this company. Once again it was a pleasure dealing with you.
Wow, I'm super impressed with your company's efficiency! In South Australia I was unable to get sizes bigger than 2XL are we able to change the order to some larger sizes? Thank you so much for the high level of integrity you and your company are working at, you have made my day.
I'd like to say a quick thank you to Meagan and her team at Flash uniforms.
They helped with a quick order of some (slightly fancy) business shirts that needed corporate branding. It was not a big order, but the professionalism and service was excellent – as was the attention to detail to ensure the branding was consistent across all shirts which were different fabrics and colours.
Highly recommended!
Thank you to Di, Julie and Nicole for your great service and products! We love our embroided shirts!CORRINNE
I love working with you, your talent is unbelievable! Once again you have kicked a goal, this is just what I wanted.
Thank you, I am more than happy to go ahead with the design on the polo shirts.
Thanks for the great customer service, the embroided work shirts have just been delivered.
Just want to say thank you very much for the singlets we absolutely love them. Your service has been the best I have ever dealt with in regards to this line of work. I am very appreciative of the work that has gone into it and professionalism of your staff on the front counter.

I saw Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I on Saturday, because I'm too old to stay up for the midnight show and too impatient to fight crowds on opening night. My general review: Loved it. Quite in touch with the book, and creepy as ever. For more details, read on. (And don't worry; I don't give anything away, unless you haven't seen the other Harry Potter movies, and if you haven't … well, why would you go see the seventh one without seeing the other six?)
As you may have noticed on the trailers, the seventh movie does not take place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry—a challenge for director, David Yates, to be certain. The very first scenes are downers, as Harry, Ron, and Hermione prepare to say goodbye to the lives they know and go off on their own, in search of Voldemort's hidden horcruxes (since the only way to kill Voldemort is to kill his horcruxes).
Directly following these downer moments, however, there is comedy. The Order of the Phoenix arrives to take Harry to a safe house, but in order to so, they must use polyjuice potion to become Harry. The Weasley twins, Fred and George, represent the comic relief, and at times, the movie theater sounded as it would during a comedy, instead of a drama—which Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 definitely is, without question.
In regards to the dramatic, somewhat depressing content of the film, don't worry—you won't leave the theater with your head hanging low. For instance, I only cried ONCE (and that's saying something for me). Seriously, though, the screenwriter did a masterful job of weaving comic moments within the darkness. Just when you think the characters are going to burst out in tears, someone says something that makes the characters and audience giggle and realize that it's all going to be okay … hopefully.
That being said, this is not a kids movie. For one thing, it's scary. I mean, like, really scary. I jumped a couple times and screamed once. The action sequences are thrilling, but people do die. Oh, and my favorite part? Voldemort's snake, Nagini, literally comes slithering out of a woman's dead body. The special effects made it feel real, and in the realness, it was creepy. I would not bring a small child to this movie; I don't care if it's Harry Potter. There's also a random bit of sexual content. (Didn't see that coming.) It's in Ron's nightmare, but I swear, I saw some Hermione side-boob. It wasn't necessary, I don't think, and would just confuse the young ones.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I is admittedly very clever. With Voldemort in power, the Ministry of Magic takes it upon themselves to hunt down muggle-borns. In one scene, there's a book called When Muggles Attack in a desk drawer. In this way, the movie felt like an historical look at America's Communist red scare of the 1940s and 50s. Also, the retelling of the story of the Deathly Hallows is brilliant. Told not with actual actors, it is instead relived via what resembles a moving, breathing black and white story-board. It sounds simple, but with the expert computer graphics, it was one of the most visually stimulating parts of the film.
And the film is visually stimulating. The filming locations look like dreams. The magic / spell-casting sequences are mind-bending. The special effects wizards at Warner Brothers deserve a pat on the back. They've mastered their art, and this is the most beautiful example yet.
For those of you who haven't read the books, you won't be lost in Part I of this, the last Harry Potter adventure. If it's been awhile since you've seen the movies, I would suggest at least watching Harry Potter 6 (Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince), just to ignite your memory. Also, when it's over, you won't feel cheated, as if you've only watched part of a movie. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I has a beginning, middle, and end. And it ends at a good place, especially since we have to wait eight months for Part II. I would suggest seeing it in the theater, because it's a beautiful film.
At least for me, it's easier to cry over a movie when it's dark all around. And if you're a Harry Potter freak, you will cry.

Hello my fellow readers. Time flies for two reasons for me: 1. I have two kids and 2. It is summertime. Sorry for my delay in posts. I still think about this blog and all of you everyday. I find topics to write about all around me. So, here is my latest and greatest.
My oldest lovely loves to go to the park. So much so that I need to spell it whenever I refer to it when he is in earshot. (I actually think he knows how to spell it now, so eventually I will need a new tactic.) One day a few weeks ago I decided to take my two babies to the park. It was a gorgeous mid May afternoon. After pushing my big guy on the swings, we headed over to the slide. The park was pretty empty except for a few kids from a local daycare center. I was sitting on a bench feeding my little guy and watching my oldest go down the slide. A few benches over I hear one of the daycare center teachers say" What are you a girl? What are you a girl? You can't like the color pink. Haha. Everyone look (insert name of boy here) likes pink." And then all the kids, and other teachers, proceed to laugh. I was horrified. A few moments later a little girl fell and started crying. She kept saying "I want my mommy" over and over again. The teacher that was in charge of her group said " ugh, what time is your mommy coming to pick you up crybaby?". Now, at this point, I was fuming! I politely asked one of the teachers what daycare center this was. She gave me the name and handed me a business card in case I was interested. I looked at her and said "Oh no. I want to make sure never to put my children in this establishment. And tomorrow I will be contacting your director about the awful scene I just witnessed.". She was stunned and didn't say anything. I got my oldest and we left the park.
Let me be honest. I definitely lost my patience when I was in the classroom. But I taught older kids. You can reason with older children. These poor babies were just that: babies. I wanted to cry watching their faces.
Another observation I had just today was our society's reliance on cell phones. I know I have written about this before but I can't help but notice. We were at the park again and this time there was a larger group of kids. As I was watching my oldest, I happen to see a little boy trying to get his mom's attention. She kept saying "One minute" as she searched on her cell phone and talked to her other mommy friends. Her son left and was running around like crazy. He wasn't watching and bumped into another kid. He started crying and the mom came over. She started blaming the other kid right away. Of course, she never saw what happened since her attention was on her phone and conversation. Had she been watching (like I was), she would have known that it was her son who bumped into the other kid.
I get it. I've been engrossed in my cell phone too. But not at the park or any public place. These babies need our attention and support. Leave the cell phone usage for nap times (unless it is an emergency).
Let me know what you think on any of the topics discussed today. I love to hear from all of you :).

Old Toby's Pipe Smoking 101
Download the Booklet by Clicking HERE
The proper packing, lighting and smoking of a pipe is something that has been discussed for years. Rather than fill your head with a bunch of different ways to smoke a pipe, I will go through how I do it and then provide you with information on locating some other methods on the Internet.
If I can offer one piece of advice to you it is this; Don't give up! Pipe smoking is an art and can take time to master. Almost every pipe smoker I have spoken with has told me that it took them a long time to get the hang of things before they could keep their pipe lit. Don't lose heart, you'll be glad you took the time to master the art of smoking a pipe.
Step 1
Hold the pipe in you hand with the tobacco chamber facing up. Over a table, jar or something else to catch the loose tobacco, sprinkle some tobacco into the tobacco chamber. Continue sprinkling until the tobacco reaches the top.
Step 2
Take your pipe tool or tamper and lightly push the tobacco down into the pipe. Pack the tobacco until you feel resistance and then stop. Do not pack too hard or this will cause problems when smoking.
Repeat steps 1 & 2 until the pipe is full of tobacco and even with the rim face.
Step 3
Now on to the lighting. Place the pipe in your mouth and gently draw a few times (don't inhale, just puff). If you have a good draw and don't feel much resistance, you are ready to light it. Using a match or a soft flame lighter, hold the flame over the bowl and begin puffing until you get a good smoke going. While puffing, tamp the tobacco until it is flat and then relight it once more.
There you have it! Easy right? Well, kind of. Your pipe probably went out already... am I right? Don't worry, just relight it using the tips above. Oh, and don't let someone tell you that the ultimate goal is to light your pipe only once. If you are enjoying it, getting flavor from the tobacco and are having fun, then you have already met the ultimate goal.
We would like you to check us out at OldToby.com where we offer a free radio show about pipes, tobacco and cigars. We also have forums, videos and all sorts of other information on the nostalgic pastime of pipe smoking.

Get ready for action
Mountains, lakes, wildlife. The North has magnificent scenery, but the weather can be unpredictable, which means you need to plan ahead.
Your tent will need to cope with sun, rain and wind – and offer enough space for a longer trip. Choose one with a rainsafe entry to keep the interior dry, mesh door panels for bug-proofing, and high hydrostatic head for stability. A porch area is great for wet boots and coats.
Sleeping bags
It can get very chilly at night so go for all-season sleeping bags that will keep you toasty at altitude and in lower temperatures. Flock airbeds add much needed comfort on longer trips. Take blankets too.
Choose comfy furniture that fits in your tent's living space, and a folding table for cooking and dining. Fire pits are amazing for stargazing, as they'll keep you warm outside the tent.
A hot drink and meal on a cold day is invaluable, which is why you'll need a burner stove that can be used inside and outside the tent.

Building A Lean-To Shelter For Outdoor Survival
If you are stranded out in the wilderness in an emergency, you need to tap into your wilderness survival skills. Building a shelter is very important to survival in such situations. People can only last a short while amidst extreme weather conditions without shelter.
You should master the outdoor survival skill of building a lean-to shelter, to be adequately prepared for an emergency.
A lean-to shelter is one of the easiest and simplest shelters to make for an emergency. This type of shelter is a great way to provide protection from the weather and wind. Always remember to place the back of the shelter toward the prevailing wind for the best protection.
A lean-to shelter is also great for most types of terrain.
To create your lean-to shelter, pound two large, forked sticks or straight ones into the ground. About one foot deep. These sticks should be about six feet apart depending on your height. A large limb must be placed inside the Y-shaped forks to create the frame for the shelter or lashed to each upright. Another option would be to use existing trees, rocks, etc...
Fill in the roof area with sticks that are tied to the top and stuck into the ground. This creates the frame for your lean-to survival shelter. Remember to bury the sticks in the ground to make the shelter sturdy enough to withstand the force of the wind.
Covering the skeleton of the lean-to is the next step to making the shelter. Use large leaves, bark, pine needles or grass to cover the framework of the lean-to shelter. Whatever material is available will suffice.
As you cover the lean-to shelter, begin at the bottom and work your way to the top, just like roofing a house with shingles. If it should happen to rain, the water will run over the joints and not leak onto you. Staying dry is very important, so take the time to prepare the shelter appropriately.
Don't forget to place some comfortable grass, leaves, or pine bows on the ground inside the shelter for bedding. Look for items that are soft and comfortable. Sleeping on the bare ground will sap your body heat quickly.
Also, you can cover up with items such as grass and leaves for more insulation. If you have a trash bag in your survival kit, you can stuff it with these items to make a comforter. Think of this as nature's blanket for you.
When you are making a lean-to shelter, it is beneficial to use the natural environment to your advantage. Look for limbs, leaves, and sticks that will suit your needs, that are close by with as little work as possible.
This will reduce the amount of work you need to do and save your energy for other tasks related to survival in the outdoors. Also build a reflection fire in front of your lean-to shelter to radiate heat into your shelter.
Because the elements are harsh on the body, building a shelter is crucial to survival in an outdoor survival situation. Practice this outdoor survival skill to master it, before you really need it.
If you are enjoying a hike over the weekend, bring along your camping gear, for instance, but plan not to use it. Instead of sleeping in your tent and sleeping bag, rough it for a night in your own lean-to shelter. This will give you the chance to practice your skill while allowing the opportunity for another safe sleeping area as a backup plan.
See you on the trail,

two tips:ReplyDelete
- spend some time on closing the side of the shelter and maybe even part of the front, depending on having a fire.
- Make the lean-to as steep as possible to have certainty that water runoff will go correctly. Less steep means more time in collecting material to waterproof the structure.
Excellent tutorial on a quick lean-to, Greg. I agree that this skills is essential and really one of the first things to do when becoming stranded.ReplyDelete
Nice article, lots of good info. I personaly try to carry at least a poncho with me when I'm out and about so I can try to make something like this just a little more water tight if need be.ReplyDelete

At Iesa responsible leadership is explicitly part of its mission and values, showing its paramount importance. In accordance to this, many different expressions of active action in these fields may be found:
In order to prepare students to manage social and environmental issues, contribute to societal development, and instil social responsibility values, IESA combines academic and extra-curricular inputs that build
on its mission: "To prepare individuals capable of assuming leadership positions in business, management, and the professions; and contribute to the success of public, private, and not-for-profit organizations."
The different study programs feature an orientation workshop known as "The IESA experience". In the MBA there are additionally two modules focused on management ethics and corporate social responsibility, and a required course titled "Business, the state, and society." The latter seeks to provide students with analytical and diagnosis skills to enable them to relate organizational performance with Latin America's social, political, and cultural context, and see themselves as change agents for the organizations to which they belong. Additionally, each MBA course includes content in social responsibility and ethics as background for the topics covered. MBA students may participate in projects undertaken by IESA as a socially responsible organization. IESA is physically located in San Bernardino, a blighted area of the capital city dotted with slums, where poverty and crime flourish. The San Bernardino Project, operated by IESA with support from business firms also located in the area, aims to work with community-based organizations (neighbourhood associations, police precinct, local schools) to strengthen the community's voice in improving health, education, infrastructure, and police services.
MBA students may also participate in IESA case development and paper preparation projects under the Social Enterprise Knowledge Network (SEKN) program, joining 10 Ibero-American schools coordinated by the Harvard Business School. Under SEKN, IESA has developed a number of teaching cases and articles published in Venezuela and abroad that examine the management of corporate social initiatives as well as programs led by civil service organizations.
In 2007, IESA attained position 75 in the Beyond Grey Pinstripes Ranking, by Aspen Institute, focused on how Social and Environmental Responsibility is included in Management Education.
IESA will continue to offer all the experiences mentioned above, as well as to participate in SEKN. IESA is currently spreading the scope of its social entrepreneurship porfolio.
Achievements Research Development in the Field of Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability
IESA approaches research in the field of corporate responsibility and sustainability in several ways. Regarding types of research, there is important activity facing academic research, applied research and pedagogical research.
IESA belongs to SEKN, an association of business schools in Latin America and Spain, launched by Harvard Business School with support from the Avina Foundation. Its purpose is to develop intellectual capital focused on social initiatives within each school's area of influence. The SEKN mission is to extend the frontier of knowledge and the practice of social entrepreneurship. Strategies deployed include Knowledge generation, Knowledge dissemination, Teaching, Institutional development, and Institutional network development and participation. The IESA-SEKN chapter features an Advisory Board made up of distinguished business leaders representing major multinational and local companies, and leaders of noted NGOs. SEKN projects are managed over two-year cycles featuring a common theme. The first SEKN cycle centered on examining partnerships between private enterprise and civil service organizations. The second cycle, completed in December 2005, focused on social initiatives led by private enterprise and not-for-profit organizations. The third SEKN phase, launched in January 2006, examines business-led market initiatives that improve the living conditions of low income sectors
Besides SEKN, IESA develops important research projects through its different academic centres:
The Marketing Centre is conducting important research on the area of Low Income Consumers/Bottom of Pyramid. The Finance Centre has developed a strong research line on Corporate Governance and is publishing in international journals on this issue of maximum relevance and social impact. The Public Policies Centre contributes, by means of applied research, effective solutions to problems faced by public institutions in Venezuela and elsewhere in Latin America and the Caribbean, and regarding NGO's and social responsibility issues. The International Centre for Energy and Environment undertakes applied research on relevant issues that feature major social impact and promote investment and development in ways that are sustainable from an economic, financial, environmental and political standpoint. The Entrepreneurship Centre promotes new business ventures with a social orientation. The Centre for Production and Technology Innovation is very much aware of the role of a responsiveness approach of production on environmental management issues and pursue to directly impact on social and environmental management trough adequate production methods and technological innovations.
All the activity mentioned above is developed through on going initiatives, projected to continue for the following years. New research projects are added following the evolution of the area in Venezuela and globally.

text: Forty Rod SASS 3935 3,850 Posted April 13, 2019 I can't be the only person in this country of 330+ million people who is looking for something like I want. First: I DO NOT WANT anything that works from a Smart Phone or other computerized device. Second: I DO NOT WANT anything hard-wired. Third: I DO NOT WANT anything that requires more complicated than a garage door opener to operate. I'm looking for a way to turn my workshop external floodlights on and off from the house about forty yards away. I can open my garage door from 200 feet up the street with a single push of a button on my visor, so why can't I find a way to do this simple task. I have had professional electricians tell me no such thing exists. I don't believe them on two counts: 1. that the thing doesn't exist and 2. that they are in any way knowledgable about their craft. I've worn out a keyboard trying to find this on the internet. I'm open to suggestions. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Operating with school funding uncertainty
In this episode of the We Love Schools Podcast, hosts Carole Dorn-Bell and Joel Gagne talk about uncertainty around school funding and the huge impact it can have on schools. A lot of school levies are on the ballot in the fall, and if these levies don't pass, it can have a huge impact on the school and the community, and it can be difficult for a school to operate within this cloud of uncertainty.
"Number one, talk about it with your community," Dorn-Bell says about the uncertainty that can surround school funding. "Because if you don't talk about it, it must not be happening. And then if something really bad happens, like funding is just ripped out from under you, your community is going to say 'What the heck?' and 'Where were you?' and 'Why weren't you telling us that this was going to happen?'"

Maintaining a clean, healthy home environment with natural products can be fun and simple. From surface cleaning to down and dirty projects, it is possible to find natural alternatives to the harsh chemicals used in conventional cleaning products. Here are some natural cleaning solutions that can tackle almost any household task:
Baking soda
Baking soda can be used as a very gentle abrasive cleaner on kitchen and bathroom counters. It is also great as a deodorizer for toilet cleaning, trash cans, and even sprinkled on the carpet before vacuuming. A small amount can be added to the wash cycle for soft and fluffy clothes from the dryer.
White vinegar
Vinegar is an effective all-purpose, non-toxic cleaner. It has been found to be a mild antiseptic, so it is great for bathrooms and kitchens and for removing mineral buildup from hard water. White vinegar can also be used as a glass and mirror cleaner. No worries about the smell, since once it dries the odor will disappear.
This powdered product can be found in most grocery stores near the laundry detergents. Borax, like vinegar, has been found to have mild antimicrobial effects on mold, viruses, and bacteria. Create an all-purpose cleaner by combining borax and vinegar in a spray bottle, or use it dry as a mild abrasive. It is one of the best items to keep your house clean.
Lemon juice
Take advantage of the acidic properties of lemon juice by using it to clean up a greasy stove, help dissolve mineral buildup on faucets or shower doors, or shine up mirrors and chrome. Make a natural wood polish by combining the juice from half of a lemon into one cup of olive oil. Apply with a clean, dry rag.
Essential oils
Used in aromatherapy, many plant essential oils such as tea tree oil also have antimicrobial action in addition to smelling great. Add a few drops of choice to any natural solution to personalize your homemade cleaner. You can also use something like lavender to freshen clean sheets or on your furniture to deodorize.
Water softeners
Much elbow grease can be avoided by being proactive and installing a water softener to remove minerals from the water supply coming into a home. These minerals not only build up on faucets, doors and other areas, but they add to soap scum by preventing it from dissolving as it normally would. Water softening systems such as Anderson Water Systems can reduce metals in your water, making it easier to keep your dishes clean.
Natural solutions for cleaning are easy to find, and can be used in most cleaning projects. Avoiding harsh products for household chores is simple, economical, and helps maintain a healthy home by avoiding toxins that pollute the indoor environment.

Here Comes Santa
Claus Fe
The only bad thing about our stay in Santa Fe (the second night of our road trip) was the Cherry Vodka Lemonade She had at a sports bar.
After our disappointing experience at Gruet, we decided to drive north to Santa Fe for the night. Looking through the guide book we came across an inexpensive but recommended motel on a "seedy stretch" three minutes from downtown that was conveniently located across from the town's only strip club: Cheeks. Gotta love that name.
We were immediately charmed by Silver Saddle Motel's Western kitsch and super friendly manager. No need to be put off by the supposedly "seedy" stretch. This place is close to downtown, comfortable, and, umm, $40 a night. Seriously. We were given #8, the Billy the Kid room, as commemorated by a plaque and a picture of Emilo Estevez above the bed.
We ventured into the quaint downtown that looked just how the Holidays should: all sparkles and snow and full of good cheer. It was super cold and the air was thin. We huffed and puffed and shivered and then stopped at the Catamount Bar before dinner (cherry vodka is terrible, Maker's Mark is not).
The restaurant we had Yelp'd opened at 5:30 and we got there as soon as the doors opened–along with forty other people. We knew nothing about the place other than the 95 positive reviews and the James Beard Award hanging in the window. Café Pasqual's was awesome. We got the last two seats available at the communal table next to a blowhard and his hippy wife from Georgia and a large (aka big boned) blue blood family from Houston.
At some point He and the blowhard struck up a conversation and it was revealed that the blowhard is an architect. I said "me too", and then the big boned wife from Houston said "me too". And then the blowhards wife says that she too has a degree in architecture. Weird. 4 of the 6 adults from different places in the US at a communal table in Santa Fe, NM have degrees in architecture. But, like most architects, they were all kind of annoying–especially the blowhard (the downside of the communal table).
We scooted our chairs closer to each other and ordered and ate a fantastic meal. All produce and meats are organic and with a Southwestern flavor. Deciding we had maybe been a bit harsh on the Gruet people we decided to try a bottle of Chardonnay. It was both creamy and crisp and matched well with Her spicy Chicken Mole Enchiladas and His Plato Supremo (Chile Relleno and Chicken Mole Enchilada, and a Taco Barbacoa, and Fresh Corn Torte with Cilantro Rice).
We skipped dessert and had a glass of Côte de Perrin "Nature" Côte de Rhône 2007 instead.
It was still early, but we were tuckered out. We decided to head back to the Emilio Estevez as Billy the Kid room and rest for a bit and then hit the town's one punk bar and Cheeks, of course. It was very cold by now, so we cuddled up in the bed with the heat on and the next thing we knew it was 9AM.
We really want to go back to Santa Fe, so much so that we are re-thinking our route home. Maybe another stop in Santa Fe after Marfa. See you at the Silver Saddle.

I am in a group here in the States which is getting quite a bit into the Nine Years War period. I am particularly interested in O'Neill's efforts to modernise his army, training his kern as shot and his Galloglass as pike.
Does anyone have indformation on what drill systems his hired captains used in training his forces?
We are initially using de Gheyn for the shot and an English 1588 drill for pike; but I would be keen to find out & adopt whatever the correct drills are, if they are known.

Being a parent can be both rough and smoothe. When parental stress occurs we let our fears take control over us.
If we are caring parents there is a heap of reasons to why things can go wrong and we should worry. From day one the child's health and safety should be at the top of our list of importance. And with every day, month and year new issues show up and we need to take decisions and make choices many times a day. Some decisions can be fault but some cannot. At times we hesitate to make a choice for our child because we are unsure which would be the right one. If we wait too long that might be bad.
Most if not all parents have the intention to be a good mother or father. But to raise a child well could be the biggest challenge that life offers us. So if we from time to time suffer from parental stress then that's to be expected.
When the child is born we gradually develop a standpoint regarding everything connected with being a responsible parent for a child. This standpoint is either exactly what we recall from our own upbringing or the reverse. The ideas normally becomes less rigid over time and not seldom the second and third child will grow up according to slightly different frames of reference.
Have you grown up under authoritarian parenting you will either be an authoritative parent yourself or you will revolt to such ideas and instead let your child do what he wants and take the consequences for his actions himself. You set no boundaries for your child, and your child can command you as he pleases.
Was your upbringing that of permessive parenting you might choose to raise your own child in such manner or you revolt to it and become a demanding parent uninterested in flexible solutions or others opinions.
Did you choose any of these extreme ways to bring up your child you will experience parental stress for every time your values are questioned by the child, which will happen more and more often.
There is a golden middle way to go in all of this. It is to always do your best, but to not try too hard. It is important to remember that children need rules and boundaries if only they are well thought-out. And if you care, you will follow up the result of most of the decisions and choices you have made. Watch the young child and ask questions to the older one. What you see and hear is your feedback. Use it in order to make wise future decisions.
Your actions will inform your child that he is loved and that you want what is best for him. Do this from the very beginning if you can. That way he will take your care for granted and when he's a teenager, and you really need to worry, he cannot say you have never cared before. A child that someone cares about feels safe and confident.
A very special kind of parental stress is that of separation anxiety. This means that every time a child and its parents are apart from one another one or both feel stress. The distance seems to depend on the age of the child. A baby can cause separation anxiety being just a few meters away but that distance is unlikely to cause any stress with a teenager.
Like with any stress the feeling will be reduced for every time the separation went well without any permanent marks. So training, starting early will pay off soon enough. In the early years grand parents can help out and later your child can spend the night at a friend from school's house or camping in the garden.
Most parents never stop worrying about the well-being of their children although they are grown-ups since long. That's okay for most but you'll have to learn to keep a distance and not interfere when it's not apropriate. Caring should not create the feeling of surveillance.

Discussion Questions
• What are some appropriate ways to explain to others your desire to keep the Sabbath day holy?
• How can you know if an activity is appropriate for the Sabbath day? (see D&C 59:9–13).
Excerpt from "The Joy of Sabbath Day Observance," by Elder Marcos A. Aidukaitis, June 2012 Ensign and Liahona:
Growing up as a Latter-day Saint in a non-LDS environment was one of the enjoyable experiences of my early life. What I remember most is getting together with family and friends for birthdays, holidays, football games, and an occasional family churrasco (barbecue). Another favorite memory is going to church together as a family on Sunday.
Keeping the Sabbath day holy and worshipping our Father in Heaven and His Son, Jesus Christ, were basic and natural for our family. As a youth in the Church, I always anticipated playing football on Tuesday nights, but I also anticipated going to sacrament meeting, Sunday School, and priesthood on Sundays. It felt so good to be with our brothers and sisters in the gospel that we were not quick to return home afterward.
Not until I was married and had a family of my own did I really appreciate the good example my parents had set during my formative years. As the father of a family, I came to better understand how important it is to "go to the house of prayer and offer up [our] sacraments upon [the Lord's] holy day" (D&C 59:9). I came to better understand the blessings He has promised to those who keep this commandment.
