I Want A Job Now! Here is Some Work You Can Start As we speak!
How will you inform what the best career path for you is when the job market is at all times altering? Whereas sure forms of cats, including Maine Coons and American Shorthair cats, are generally known as good mousers, there may be large particular person variation within each breed. Doctors, lawyers, Lecturers, manufacturing companies and plenty of other regular people who find themselves really doing their jobs don't depend on such BS. After carefully reading the applying or resume and taking the time to interview and talk to and get the texture for the invidules who're applying. Yes, you want to be selective; everyone knows the nonsense we write within the early days of our content writing career and even when we just do not feel like proof reading some write up, so skip such stuff.
First, most of the jobs created have been in China, the place the cost of labor is lower than within the US. Apple outsourced much of its manufacturing, so while it was revolutionary, the growth in jobs within the states have been focused in marketing, sales, finance and product design. I never pay any consideration to Canada however imagine if your President was the owner of WalMart or the final Republican Candidate for president. Generally, even school and faculty libraries hire youngsters during summer time jobs for numerous works in library. I am happy with my present job though i used to be not happy with my previous jobs.
After a quick Google search, teens can find someone who wants their writing expertise. So brush up, or extra correctly, dust off the cobwebs by going by means of that family heirloom referred to as Wren & Martin. In the years since I started my job at LEGOLAND, many more Model Builder jobs were added in a studio just a skip away from LEGOLAND California. Hi there I want to verify that for the android model you'll solely get the 2 4th letters from King Alus and the Gramps after getting your jobs grasp. The profession selections in this article might enable you, but one other thing you could possibly do is discuss to a college counsellor.
Teens can easily discover on-line jobs that enable them to be paid for writing articles on a wide range of matters. Quite a lot of jobs aren't marketed and as the saying goes, typically its who you recognize. Perhaps hiring will choose up because the economic system improves, but do not hold your proverbial breath. Plastic surgery appeared like a miracle, and It was rampant indeed for Hollywood stars, but by no means openly mentioned. It is a helpful ability, although we leave the big jobs to our neighbor who has an electrician enterprise and understands Nineteen Twenties houses. This obscure jobs includes going to parties and reading an imprint of lipstick on a chunk of paper. The thought of JennyLynn's below is a superb one – & one thing we should investigate, as out of your experiences it's obvious our present system will not be so good.
Regardless of this headline unemployment is down sixteen,000 to 1.616 million (a rate of four.eight%) on the quarter however only as a result of the jobs slowdown is disguised by a sharp rise of seventy six,000 in the number of folks out of labor who are economically inactive. You could have executed a superb job at describing the assorted jobs accessible and what it takes to seek them out. All of these units can be confusing, however are helpful for labor statistics tracking and particularly for forecasting the Prime 10 Jobs of the MSA by way of 2025.

Two gun and bomb attacks have left six police officers dead and eight injured in the North Caucasus region or Russia.
On Saturday evening two masked gunmen opened fires at a mosque in at Khasavyurt in Dagestan.
A bomb also went off and but it is reported a second device failed to explode.
No one died but eight people were hurt with three in intensive care.
The second attack took place at Malgobek in Ingushettia on Sunday morning. At least six police were killed when a bomb exploded at the entrance to the house of a former colleague whose funeral was being held.
Investigators say they have found the head of a person they believe was a suicide bomber.
The North Caucasus region has seen some of the worst ethnic violence in recent years.
Both attacks took place as Russians were marking the end of Ramadan

Mary Peled was diagnosed with a rare type of leukemia known as CMML, something typically seen in older patients.
"The little cuts in my hand wouldn't heel, my gums were red, so I had my blood count done. My white count was a little elevated, but I thought I had an infection. We checked it two weeks later and it was doubled," said Peled.
The Rutgers Cancer Institute where she was treated is being recognized for its research in trying to find a cure for myelodysplastic syndromes, like CMML.
"MDS is actually a spectrum of diseases that range from low-risk, that goes all the way to a very high-risk," said Dr. Dale Schaar.
Dr. Schaar says it can eventually transform into acute leukemia in some patients.
"It's essentially a disease of aggressive bone marrow failure. So there's a problem with the bone marrow or the blood stem cells … because it is a very complex, aggressive disease, and the only curative measure is bone marrow or stem cell transplant which we also do here," said Schaar.
Peled says she underwent a stem cell transplant and is now in remission. Even though she faces daily struggles because her body is fighting the stem cell transplant, she says she would do it all over again.
"I had 20-month prognosis. Without this, so I wouldn't be here today," said Peled.
Schaar says MDS is rare with about four cases per 100,000 people in the United States. But as you get older, the case numbers drastically go up.
"There's a big jump at age 70 where that overall number of four in 100,000 people will go up to about 30 cases per 100,000 people, and if you live to 80 that goes up to 55," Dr. Schaar said.
Because patients are typically older when they get this disease, fewer are candidates for a bone marrow transplant.
"Fortunately, we have a set of drugs that are the first class of medicines to have ever really positively impacted this disease. But in most patients, if they're fortunate enough to respond and they can respond quite well for reasons as yet we don't understand, the response is a year to two years," continued Schaar.
Part of his research is trying to find a next step after this class of drugs.
"These diseases, as we look at them more closely on the molecular level, acute leukemia and myelodysplasia, they're all very closely related," explained Dr. Schaar.
Peled says she's signed up for any studies the hospital is conducting, because without people like Dr. Schaar and modern science, she says she wouldn't be here today.
"I was with the right person, and the right institution with the right supports," she said.

Well Jason, a great story of an enviable day in the life. That's a killer lead-in, too, "the most dapper chaps along the Strait of Juan de Fuca…" You can recite this aloud to your children when they're grown.
driftwood places
The boys were the most dapper chaps along the Strait of Juan de Fuca after a visit to the little hat shop in Port Townsend which is a Victorianish town that sticks out into Puget Sound on the end of the Quimper (rhymes with whimper) Peninsula which has a Beaver Valley which is home to an RV graveyard which is indubitably the place to be if in search of mossy doo-hickeys for your Winnebago. Adam contributed half his own, hard-earned substantial savings toward the stylish number which would have looked at home in a London hattery but still it was tricky not flinching when later in the weekend he came dashing to the house proudly sporting a trio of gunkified gull feathers tucked jauntily atop his noggin now dusted with the gray silt transported (swirling in eddies past yawning, frustrated bears and through Goblin Gates) from snowy prominences which loom over the Strait.
Adam and Oliver enjoy being grown-up, all by their ownsomes, on beachcombing forays to the Elwha and they've been adopted by the loose clan of a half-dozen harbor seals which have a tendency to show up for early brunch. One evening for a particularly low tide the boys went down to the Elwha as usual to check for eagles or something, I went in the other direction. Having a tendency to not keep my hand out of the cookie jar, I rounded smooth, buff-colored sandstone in and out of lonely, dank coves for close-enough-to-touch views of Striped Peak and the distant boat launch whereabouts Adam and I have explored the small creek flowing into Freshwater Bay from the woods. Dusk caught up with me, I took too long (the cookie jar was empty) and having over-exuberantly walked seven miles earlier in the day in search of snowy Shangri-La I found myself hobbling back to the house over slippery cobbles at first, then even more slippery mounds of kelp and finally cowboying over driftwood logs resting at right angles with the forest, before the beach smoothed to soothingly firm, dark sand for my cement barrels which resembled human legs when I looked down at them (one of those harbor seals could've brought me down with a well-timed expert whip of a flipper).
Here was one of the driftwood houses inside of which the boys have conducted various imaginations the past several months. Always I'm reminding them, just like felsenmeer these things aren't built to code and can teach awfully painful lessons so be safe and not sorry! Friends and acquaintances visiting from other places always exclaim astonished at the remarkable array of wood detritus on our saltwater beaches, both ocean and Sound. It took years before I fully comprehended the critical niche driftwood (the deadly, enormous Leviathans which boggle the imagination but also the trillions of tiny mouse walking sticks) occupies in the Pacific Northwest natural ecosystem.
Finally, I arrived at the house in the dark that evening of the long walk and as Oliver Fern makes much ado about the old cemetery across the lane, I tried my goonie best for a good old-fashioned scare through the living room picture window. Perhaps it was the clatter of dominoes across the dining table but the boys smiled only a little surprised, their faces ruddy from the flickering flames in the corner stove.

Message from the Interim Chair
Welcome to the Department of Theatre at UNCW. We are thrilled to make our h
Our goal is to nurture, encourage, support, train and educate the artist in the study and practice of theatre. We train students to pursue a career in the vast field of SHOW BUSINESS. Whether that is in live theatre, film, television or a host of other fields, students will learn the essential skills needed. Our students WORK!ome in the spectacular, state-of-the-art, $34 million Cultural Arts Building. This extraordinary facility houses two beautiful theaters, fully-equipped shops, and first-rate studio spaces. Students interested in theatre will not find better facilities in North Carolina. We are ideally located in Wilmington, NC, where the arts thrive in a beautiful coastal setting that is home to both an active film industry and growing television market.
All Theatre majors take a common core of courses that introduce them to a full range of dramatic study; courses in Theatre History, Stagecrafts, Script Analysis, Design and Acting. Majors then choose one of three tracks or "options" within the major, depending upon their interests. Students interested in acting usually choose the "Performance" track, which trains them in Acting, Voice and Movement, Improvisation, and other areas of theatrical performance. Students interested in behind-the-scenes production choose the "Design and Technology" track of the major. They work on building sets, designing lighting, creating costumes, and other aspects of theatrical design such as sound and projection design. Still other students major in a "Customized" track, which helps them develop as directors, playwrights, stage managers, dramaturge and other theatrical professionals.While maintaining the flexibility of our Bachelor of Arts degree, these concentrations offer professional training in theatre, television, film, related industries and a wide variety of graduate programs, as well as careers in the private and non-profit sectors. Our 46 credit hour B.A. gives our students the flexibility to complete a second major, minor or the ability to study abroad. We offer an interesting selection of courses and various production opportunities on our two stages.While most of our majors envision careers in the theatre, our program at UNCW is not a "studio" or "conservatory" training ground. Instead, it is a concentration within a broadly-based liberal arts curriculum. Just as not all students who major in Philosophy are expected to become philosophers after graduation, Theatre majors are not trained narrowly for careers on the stage. As Theatre majors, they are required to study all aspects of stagecraft, the history of theatre in western culture, dramatic literature, and other dimensions of theatrical production. Through our course of study, they learn skills that will help them in any profession: critical thinking, research, problem-solving, oral and written communication, and working with others in a creative enterprise that requires dedication, innovation, and timeliness.As students in the College of Arts and Sciences at UNCW, our majors are also required to study Mathematics and the Natural Sciences (Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Geology, Geography, Computer Science, Mathematics & Statistics, Environmental Studies); Social and Behavioral Sciences (Psychology, Sociology, Anthropology); Humanities (Philosophy, Foreign Languages, International Studies, Religion, History, Literature); the Fine Arts (Music, Art and Art History, Film Studies, Creative Writing, and Theatre); and Physical Education (Sports, Dance, and Physical Fitness). In a tradition that goes back to ancient Greece and Rome, our students graduate as well-versed and well-rounded citizens.We ask that our students bring a strong sense of commitment to excellence and a passion for the Arts. We can then help them hone their skills to achieve their dreams. Our students have many opportunities to perform, design, and/or work backstage once they matriculate into the program.Please contact Administrative Associate, Susan Wilder at (910) 962-2061, if you would like to set up an appointment to discuss your further interests in our Department of Theatre and to schedule a tour of our facilities.

Check out our supplies wishlist! We ALWAYS need supplies for our cats which can get very costly! If you would like to donate any unwanted cat toys, food, grooming tools etc, our volunteers can either pick them up, or you can drop them off at our main foster home.

Desperate House Cat Rescue Society is a volunteer run, nonprofit organization that is dedicated to the principal of finding loving homes for breed cats, feral cats, stray cats, and most of all any domestic cats.
All of our cats have been spayed, neutered, dewormed and are in excellent health and condition prior to being put up for adoption. We are a registered company and operate solely on donations.

THINGS TO KNOWNo-kill humane society
Desperate House Cat Rescue Society takes pride in our No-Kill policy meaning we do not put any of our animals down, no matter how difficult it is to find homes for them. We strive to ensure the well-being and complete happiness of each animal providing them with vet care, treatment, socialization, grooming and etc. in order to find them their perfect homes!Feral Cats
Many of the cats that we take into our humane society, are homeless cats that were living on the streets from being abandoned by their families or were born outdoors. These cats are not very social and lovable at first because of the nature of their living conditions before we take them in. At our humane society, our volunteers make a huge effort, and take a lot of time to coax these kitties into trusting humans! Most of our feral cats eventually realize that we are not trying to hurt them, and become the sweetest and most loving cats.Adopting a Cat
Cats are a wonderful addition to any family, however they are still living creatures meaning that when you make the commitment to adopt them, you need to keep that commitment! Please read the following article to make sure adopting a cat is the right choice for you!

Lordy, but it's been a doozy couple a days! Asked the fella behind the meat counter for 3 lbs of meat, he gave me 2.85, I hand it back and ask for 3 lbs again, he gives me 3.4, I hand it back again and ask for 3... heavy sigh. 2 places during my tour were out of items they normally carried, had to explain that away. Then today, tried to deliver some ice cream to a certain address, apparently there are 2 addresses in town like that on the same street, simply 12 blocks apart. Of course, I went to the wrong one first, and it's hot as bejeesus down here, and I'm walking! Trying to find a house number when they go from 683 to 304 within one block on one side of town, and from a 500 block to number 60 in the next block makes for so much fun, not. Did I mention it was hot???
But, still smiling, it's all good, nothing a few cold Toñas won't fix!

Celebrate the Attempts NOT the Successes
I don't claim to know everything; heck, most of the time in this adventure we call parenting I feel as though I know nothing. I try to step back and let my kids navigate the world. I don't jump when my tiny little daughter says she can't reach the snack on the shelf. I remind her that the stool is by the sink, and she can use that to get the snack herself. We strive to raise healthy, happy kids and at the same time feel the pressure to have our kids excel at everything. From school to extracurricular activities, it's easy to get lost in the burden to be the best. So how do we raise self-sufficient, well-rounded kids in a world of helicopter parents and overachievers?
Don't focus on your child's strengths, but rather celebrate the actions they took to reach their achievements; not the achievements themselves. When my daughter gets a good grade, which for her does not come easy, I don't just tell her: "Great job, you are so smart!" Instead I tell her how proud I am of her for working so hard to learn the material. I don't want her to feel I am proud of her intelligence, because what will happen to her self-esteem when she doesn't bring home a good grade? Will Mom still be proud of me?
I want my kids to know that hard work is valued. For some, like my son, things come easy. But there are times he works hard to improve…like shooting countless pucks a day. When his shot has improved, I make the point to tell him that I am proud of how diligently he has been shooting in the driveway; especially because I know it's not his favorite thing. Again, I'm not proud of his success; I'm proud of what it took him to get there.
Encourage your child pursue his passion especially if he's not good at it. If he LOVES to draw but does not have an aptitude for it, don't discourage…encourage. We work hard at what we enjoy doing, and improvement comes through repetition. Make sure your child knows that it's OK to not be the best. Let them follow their passions, and not just participate in activities they are competent at.
It's important to celebrate failures for several reasons. First, failure shows effort, and it's better to try and fail then to never try at all. Second, we learn through failure. We can't learn from our mistakes and change the outcome if we always succeed. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, while expecting a different result. Don't raise insane kids; raise kids that thrive on failure, that excel when challenged, and who learn from their mistakes. Finally, letting your kids fail gives you the opportunity to teach them how to overcome failure and disappointment, and to move past it. What have they learned from it? How can they avoid the same result in the future?
No matter how talented, smart, hardworking, or successful a person is, at some point life will not go their way. Do you want to have the kid who loses their cool when they come in second because they were never taught how to lose gracefully? What if he doesn't get accepted into his first-choice college or is not selected for the job he really wants? How will your child respond? It's how we handle the disappointments and challenges in life that defines us, not the events themselves...and it is our job as parents to give them the tools they need to face opposition with grace and dignity.

Be Careful What Are You Buying: Did You Know What Does The Stickers on The Fruits Mean?
We are sure that you have noticed the stickers on the fruits that you are buying in the supermarket? Have you ever wondered what do they mean?
1. If it is a 4 digit code that starts with the numbers 3 or 4, it means that the product was cultivated in the second half of the 20th century on a factory farm, and probably used artificial fertilizers.
2. If the product has 5 digit code that starts with the number 9, it means that the product was grown in a traditional way, as it has been cultivated for thousands of years, which is commonly known today as organic or without pesticides and fertilizers.
3. If the product has a 5 digit code that starts with number 8, it means that the product is genetically modified or commonly known as GMO.
After reading this you will surely pay more attention on what you are buying and consuming!

An Unlikely Fear
June 1, 2016
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
Terrorism is unique in its ability to induce distinct fear in civilians, even those located on the other side of the world. A single attack can discompose and scare an entire nation, perhaps to points of inaccurate over-exemplification. In an almost formulaic manner, the media reports terrorism, rejuvenating fear from prior events, before political figures begin spewing rhetoric that build off the people's cumulative frustration and angst. So what factors contribute to the deep rooted fear and disproportionate responses? Why do we hold an exclusive fearfulness for terrorism?
Part of the reasoning to this thought process can be explained by anecdotal projection. People have a tendency to calculate the possibility of dangers based on personal account and witness rather than statistical probability. In perspective, global fatalities relating to road crash incidents count in at around 1.3 million a year, while 32 thousand people worldwide were victims of terrorist attacks in 2014. Therefore, by numerical data, we should be more concerned with road safety than with an act of terrorism. But we aren't, and most likely never will be, seeing that fear and worry are peaking at levels not reached since September 11, 2001 (according to a CBS and New York Times poll). More than just the report of the experience, the relatability of the victims play a key part in how we perceive the threat to ourselves. Most people don't know the fact that dozens of terror attacks aside from Paris and Brussels have taken place since January of 2015. Even fewer people are aware that six of those attacks were deadlier than both Paris and Brussels respectively. This should come as no surprise, considering the focus of the public remained on the familiar areas, rather than Nigeria or Egypt. It explains why fear and mourning were widespread during the time periods following the Paris/Brussels attack while some people remain completely unaware of incidents just as, if not more, fatal. Anecdotal reliance is a very basic form of computing danger, but it is a tendency we are all (understandably) subject to.
Anecdotes may be the start of miscalculation, but the media dictates how much of the news consists of specific accounts of attacks and death counts. The news channels are saturated with recent updates on the same event, amplifying the perceived magnitude of the attack. When an individual is presented with information with such repetition and consistency, it's only natural that they begin to irrationally invoke themselves in the event. Perhaps these excessive reports are doing more harm in spreading the fear terrorists initially intended.
As shown through the obvious numerical disparities between death count of car accidents and terrorist attacks, the justification for citizens' fear supercede any tangible evidence. Simply put, accidents leading to death are just that—accidents. No intensive purpose, no plan, just an unfortunate twist of fate. However, the deaths caused by terrorism, disregarding how small the stats may be, holds more to be afraid of than just death count. Its very nature implies an extensively precise, meticulous, and calculating effort to cause damage on random bystanders. The reality of terror is more than just the casualties. There is a bigger picture, an involvement in a greater scheme to destroy certain people's set values. That is the unique trait of terror. That is the great trigger for fear that can't be combated with knowing probability.
Terrorism is undoubtedly a major concern, regardless of comparison. There is something truly haunting about the dynamics of terrorism, where needless slaughter is followed by a widespread dismay that is magnified by the media, leading to panic. To further confound the issue, we are living in an age of mistrusted authority. When a politician dare stray from the current common rhetoric, citizens deem them weak. Cautious planning and understanding of facts has been translated to people as "scared" or "spineless". How can it even be plausible to hope for a solution if we refuse to engage in statistical analysis? The fear of terror is understandable, given the inclination of human nature and the methods of receiving news. But succumbing to fear while engaging in discussion of serious political affairs is not in the best interest of our country, our globe, and our principles.

Their store features something out of the ordinary for a surplus store: it's clean, organized, and carries the top names in tactical gear and military related items. Their problem? They had no online following. Their Facebook page was on life support with 250 followers. With a close-knit community surrounding them, it was a no-brainer that we needed to grow their brand.

Telenor hits GDPR success after partnering with Wiraya on campaign to win consent
Press release • May 22, 2018 10:24 BST
London, UK, 22 May 2018 – Ahead of the GDPR deadline this Friday (May 25), Telenor Sweden, a Scandinavian multinational telecommunications company, have seen market leading results for GDPR Consent, working with Wiraya, a managed mobile customer activation firm, to ensure future compliance and improved customer experience.
As part of an ongoing campaign to seek GDPR consent from customers, Telenor Sweden has already achieved significant success;
"Through Wiraya Consent we reached over 96,7% of our customers with the info about GDPR and collected a valid consent from 39,95% of our customers. I am really impressed with the method and can recommend it to every company that aim to be GDPR Compliant" - Anna Lindsjö, Head of Customer Communication Management, Telenor Sweden.
Through Wiraya, the company uses a hybrid of mobile communication methods and a multichannel approach, tailored to each customer by their communication preferences, all aimed at boosting conversion.
"By starting with a personalised phone call, customers quickly and easily can understand the importance of being in control of their data", said Sam Madden, UK Director at Wiraya. "Based on how the customer interacts with this call they receive a text message with simple next steps'. The most effective text messages include a personalised link for the customer to simply update details and consent to the use of their data. This Mobile Customer Activation solution has seen a rapid increase in inspiring action from customers compared to traditional communication methods."
Additionally, as part of GDPR service providers need to make sure customers get confirmation of the channels they've opted into, as well as a way to update them in the future.
Madden concludes, "Getting customer consent wrong could mean far more than huge fines for your business, it could mean losing all trust and credibility with your customer base. It could mean losing your edge to competitors. The successful campaign we are running with Telenor makes it clear that how brands seek this consent will be crucial."
Wiraya designs and develops the industry's only cloud based platform for tailored, real time customer dialogue. Our solution helps companies activate, engage, and retain customers through individualised large scale communication. It's automated, while staying human. With a solid track-record we deliver immense client value and unmatched conversion results. With over 100 million unique customer interactions made, Wiraya Cloud has gathered the data needed to optimise when, where and how to communicate a specific message to each individual to maximise conversion. We are more than a cloud service. We are committed to your success! With our full product philosophy, we are with you all the way - from strategy to reached results. We cover everything from project management and integration, to optimisation, support and reporting.

ChallengeThe new stores of running sports expert Runners Point in Vienna and Berlin shall draw the people's attention to the assortment and current offers by the digital shop windows. Since a high luminosity is needed to transfer the image information through the tinted glass windows, only LED video displays can be considered for the realization.
SolutionThe new highlight in Vienna's shopping street are the shop windows of Runners Point. According to the customer's demands we installed S[quadrat] SOR [6 SMD] NT Light LED modules. With the outdoor LEDs we can reach the required brightness of 4,500 cd/m². This will be adjusted automatically to changing light conditions by our software SX[BrightnessControl] and thus ensures optimal image quality. Additionally, the SMD LEDs create a viewing angle of 140° horizontal and vertical, which provides the ideal view to the displays.The display modules were mounted into a rental frame and were attached with mounting brackets to vertical aluminum profiles, which are fixed at the floor and at the ceiling.At Berlin's "Ku'damm" we installed a 5 m² shop window screen to suit the local environment. Unlike in Vienna, here the rental frame was suspended with hanging brackets on the ceiling.
Completion:November 2015/ February 2016Technical data:4 x S[quadrat] SOR [6 SMD] NT Light Shop Window LED video displays
Size: 2 x (2,5 m x 2 m) = 10 m² 2 x (1,5 m x 2 m) = 6 m²

May is National Asthma and Allergy Awareness month, put forth by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA). Spring marks peak season for allergy sufferers, and asthma patients. May 6th was World Asthma Day, and the goal of the month is to raise awareness for asthma and allergic diseases. Lung disease is closely tied with asthma, allergies and air quality.
The Connection between Asthma and COPD
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a separate condition from asthma, but it can be hard to distinguish the symptoms. Asthma is a chronic disease of the lungs where the airways become blocked or narrowed, causing difficulty breathing. There are two varying types of asthma, allergic and non-allergic. On the other hand, COPD is a progressive lung disease characterized by difficulty breathing due to damage in the lungs. However, asthma and COPD are closely tied. There are many similarities between the two including:
- Chronic inflammation of the airways and airflow limitation
- Shortness of breath
- Wheezing
- Coughing
- Viral infections and adverse reactions to smoke, tobacco and pollution exposure
Airway Remodeling
Many patients with chronic asthma can develop airway remodeling that causes airflow obstruction, or COPD. Airway remodeling occurs in patients with severe asthma that is not under control. When asthma goes untreated, it can cause scarring in the lungs, leading to asthma medications not working as well and less air coming in the lungs. Airway remodeling can lead to COPD. Patients who develop COPD will need to keep treating the inflammation of their airway, and add more treatment to manage COPD symptoms and retain lung function. But, airway remodeling is a preventable condition. If you have asthma, make sure it is under control with your pulmonologist. If you experience an asthma attack, treat it or seek medical help. Monitor your symptoms and try to avoid asthma triggers.
Allergies and COPD
The other observance of National Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month is seasonal allergies. These are caused by allergens in the air. The immune system is reacting to allergens that act as triggers. Allergies can occur indoors and outdoors. However, outdoor seasonal allergy triggers are most common in the springtime and include trees, grass, weed pollen and mold spores. For people with COPD and lung disease, seasonal allergies can spell trouble. Studies have shown that allergies can increase the frequency and severity of respiratory problems in people with COPD and other lung disease. Many people with COPD can expect their symptoms to worsen during seasonal allergy season, which is occurring now. Postnasal drip, a common part of seasonal allergies, can stimulate nerves in the back of the nose, which aggravates coughing and COPD symptoms. You can talk to your pulmonologist about adding an antihistamine to your routine to deal with seasonal allergies, or try staying indoors more. Check out the AAFA's list of the worst cities for seasonal allergies and see if your city is listed. Or you can also look at the daily allergy report, which includes pollen levels, on Accuweather.com.
If you or a loved one has COPD or other lung disease and want to learn more about treatment options, contact us or call 888-745-6697.

Watched SAC but never the 1995 film. ...
I get why people are passionate about movies and why there's always angst at remakes and sequels, but I think of remakes as a revision of an old story. That's why there'll always be reboots of films like Spider-Man, Batman, etc. You may not always agree with some of the decisions the film makers and directors may've made, but on it's own, sometimes the remake is a good revision of the old fable.
You worded that carefully, and I agree with your general point. But if you miss the tone or the plot hard enough, it's not the same story anymore. It's a different story and you run the risk of it being good, shit or forgettable.
I want to see this movie, but the review is troubling. One of the thing that stands out is having Major Kusinagi get emotional. I always felt her being unemotional was one of her defining characteristics, because it helped further blur the line between her being a human with robot parts, or a former-human robot. The rest of section 9 was there to show the contrast and act as the more emotional human characters. Particularly the rookie.(Togusa) as the emotionally "hot" one and Battou as the more emotionally mature one.
And I suggest you watch the 95 anime for the experience. It IS slower than hell in places, but it leaves you with more of an open ended ending to think about.

Having not planted many vegetables this year, I'm turning my attention to accidental crops – including flowers. Looking at the dandelions making their presence felt all over the lawn, I decided to find out what I could do with them. Making wine is the obvious choice – my dad tried that once. It sat in a bucket and went mouldy, which put me off that option a bit.
I turned to Google and asked it, "What can I do with dandelion flowers?" It gave me several answers, including wine. I could dig up the roots, clean them, roast them and grind them for a coffee substitute. That sounded like a lot of work, especially as I'm not that keen on coffee in the first place. A couple of other suggestions sounded more attractive.
The first recipe I tried was dandelion fritters. It goes like this:
Pick flowers
Dip in pancake batter
There were a few more details, including removing all the bitter green bits from the flowers. Trial and error revealed this to be not quite accurate. If you remove all the green bits, the flowers fall apart. Remove most of the greenery, but leave the bit that holds the flower together. Some versions of this recipe mentioned washing, too, but to avoid soggy fritters there'd be a lot of drying involved, and as the flowers seemed to have come out overnight, they can't have had time to get dirty. Insects tend to remove themselves once the flowers are picked, so I didn't bother with that step.
Results? Success! They were delicious. They go well with sweet chilli dipping sauce.
I also tried dandelion tea. This receipe is even easier:
Pick flowers
Add hot water
Again, this was surprisingly tasty. I used 6-8 flowers per cup and left it for longer than I would normal tea – maybe about 5 min. They're a bit of a fiddle to fish out, but not that much bother if you leave them in.
To keep the supplies of tea coming, I had a go at drying the flowers, too. I was given a trug as a present a few years ago and I reckoned the flat(ish) wicker base would be good for spreading out the flowers and allowing air to circulate. I left this in the conservatory for a few days and the flowers dried beautifully, so I now have a tin of dandelions to keep me going all year.
All round, then, my first flower experiments were very successful. The dandelions in my garden have been reclassified from weeds to vegetables. They're quite pretty, too, if you're not after an immaculate smooth green lawn.

- In autumn 2010, my husband Ian and I both quit our jobs, sold our house and left the flatlands of the east for the mountains of Wales. Our goal is to create a more self-sufficient lifestyle in a place we actually like living. Whilst Ian will continue to earn some money as a freelancer, my part of the project is to reduce how much we spend by growing and making as much of what we need as possible. The purpose of this blog is to keep friends updated with how the grand project is progressing, but all are welcome here. If you're not a friend already, well perhaps you might become one.

Many Tom Selleck fans know him best from his '80s TV hit "Magnum P.I." Others may know him best as Monica's boyfriend, Dr. Richard Burke, on "Friends," as Peter Mitchell from the 1987 hit film "Three Men and a Baby" or, more recently, as Police Commissioner Frank Reagan on the TV series "Blue Bloods."
Throughout his long career in show business, the actor has had his share of ups and downs but has managed to stay out of the tabloid magazines and remain devoted to his family. Here are some fun facts you may not know about this Hollywood legend.
He Dropped Out Of College To Pursue Acting
Selleck was born in Detroit but grew up in Southern California. While attending the University of Southern California, Selleck belonged to the Sigma Chi fraternity and also worked as a male model to pay the bills. However, he ended up dropping out in order to pursue an acting career. He signed a contract with 20th Century Fox just three credits shorts of a business degree.
He's A Veteran
From 1967 to 1973, Selleck served in the California Army National Guard. He was a sergeant in California's 160th infantry regiment. Later, the actor appeared on recruiting posters for the California National Guard.
He Was A Contestant On 'The Dating Game'
One of Tom Selleck's first TV appearances was as a contestant on the game show "The Dating Game" in 1965. He appeared again in 1967, losing both times. Perhaps it was because he wasn't sporting his lucky mustache!
His Mustache Has A Major Presence
When you think of Selleck, chances are you think about the actor's most defining feature. His famous mustache even has its own Facebook page, where it is listed as a "Public Figure" and has more than 40,000 followers. As you probably figured, without his mustache, Selleck is almost unrecognizable!
He Has Been Married Twice
His first marriage to model and actress Jacqueline Ray ended in 1982, after 10 years. During the marriage, Selleck adopted Ray's son, Kevin, from a previous relationship.
He Was A Struggling Actor Until His Mid-30s
Tom Selleck was 35 when he got his big break. As the star of "Magnum P.I.," a crime drama about a private investigator living in Hawaii, Selleck was thrust into the spotlight. Before that, the actor had starred in six other TV pilots that did not take off.
He Worked As A Handyman
When an actors' strike delayed filming on "Magnum P.I." for six months, Selleck was already in Hawaii ready to begin filming. He had already signed a lease on an apartment, so he worked as a handyman for his landlord in order to make ends meet.
He Might Have Been Indiana Jones
The role of Indiana Jones in the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" was originally offered to Selleck. However, CBS forced the actor to pass on the movie due to a conflict with his "Magnum P.I." contract. Selleck revealed the story in 2014 when talking to David Letterman.
He Met His Second Wife After Seeing Her Perform In 'Cats'
Tom Selleck has been married to his second wife, Jillie Mack, for more than 30 years. They met in 1983 after Selleck saw her in a London performance of "Cats." He credits their successful marriage to his choice to put his family before his career.
He Had A Secret Wedding
In 1987, Selleck and Mack married in a private ceremony in a 24-hour wedding chapel near Lake Tahoe in Nevada. They used the aliases "Tom Jenkins" and "Suzie Mark" so the press wouldn't find out. They also only took Polaroid photos of the wedding, so that no one could get ahold of the negatives.
He Played Basketball In College
At 6 feet 4 inches tall, it's not surprising that young Tom Selleck gravitated toward basketball. When he was a student at the University of Southern California, he played for the school's men's basketball team.
He Briefly Dated Mimi Rogers
Before marrying Jillie Mack, Selleck dated actress Mimi Rogers. Rogers would later go on to marry another '80s heartthrob, Tom Cruise. Selleck met Mack not long after his breakup with Rogers, according to People magazine.
Some People Confuse Him With Burt Reynolds
Because of their mustaches and similar features, some people have confused Tom Selleck with the late Burt Reynolds. You can see why below.
He Lives On An Avocado Ranch
Selleck lives on a 65-acre ranch and avocado farm in California. Despite this, Selleck told People that he hates avocados. "I don't eat 'em … Honestly, they make me gag," he said. "But it's just as well. I'll sell my portion."
His Daughter Is An Accomplished Equestrian
Selleck and Mack have one daughter, Hannah. Although she has dabbled in the entertainment business, she decided not to follow in her parents' footsteps. Instead, she is an accomplished equestrian and breeds horses for a living.
'Three Men And A Baby' Is His Highest-Grossing Movie
Selleck, Steve Gutenberg and Ted Danson starred as three bachelors who are suddenly left to care for a baby in this 1987 hit film. The film was America's top-grossing movie of 1987 despite being up against a tough crop including "Dirty Dancing," "Lethal Weapon," and "Fatal Attraction." It is also, by far, the highest-grossing movie of his career, earning $167 million domestically.
He Once Took Part In MLB Spring Training
For the 1992 film "Mr. Baseball," Selleck spent three weeks at spring training with the Detroit Tigers. Having been born in Detroit, Selleck had been a longtime fan of the team and said it was a dream come true. "I was never more prepared for a movie role," Selleck told Deseret News.
He's Only Done Broadway Once
In 2001, Selleck made his Broadway debut in the revival of "A Thousand Clowns." His performance and the show, on the whole, received mixed reviews. To date, it has been his only Broadway credit.
He's An Animal-Lover And Once Had A Family Cow Cremated
Selleck has a soft spot for animals, especially dogs. At one point, he owned five dogs: a German shepherd, an English cocker and three Cavalier King Charles spaniels. He also has co-starred with a dog in the Jesse Stone film series.
In a 2009 appearance on "The Daily Show," Selleck gave host Jon Stewart the lowdown on all the animals on his ranch — including the fact that the Selleck family had once been so attached to a cow that they asked the vet to cremate her when she died so they could keep her ashes.
He Was Told That His 'Friends' Role Might Hurt His Career
The actor was told that taking a role on the sitcom "Friends" would be a step back, career-wise. However, he accepted the part because, "I liked the show and I liked Courteney [Cox] because I did a screen test with her for [the 1992 flick] 'Folks!'" he told TV Insider. He ended up receiving an Emmy nomination for his performance and it introduced him to a new generation of fans.
He's A Bit Of A Luddite
Selleck is not one to embrace new technology. In 2015 he told Entertainment Tonight he had only sent a single text message, ever, and said he had never used email. He's not on Twitter or Instagram, which is a rarity for celebrities these days.
He Does NOT Have A Name For His Mustache
In case you're wondering, Selleck does not have a nickname for his mustache and has no advice for anyone who wants to grow one. He credits his prominent upper lip hair to genetics. "You either got it or you don't," he told GQ.
He Did A Write-In Vote In The 2016 Presidential Election
During the 2016 presidential election, Selleck did not support either candidate. Instead of voting for Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump, the actor supported a write-in candidate. He revealed on "The View" that his choice for president was Dallas Police Chief David Brown.
He Has An Honorary Degree From Pepperdine University
Although he dropped out of USC, Selleck did end up with a degree. He received an honorary doctorate from Pepperdine University in 2000. He used his commencement speech as an opportunity to talk to Pepperdine students about character.
He Wishes The New 'Magnum P.I.' Well
Although he isn't involved in the new show, Tom Selleck reportedly gave his blessing to the CBS remake starring Jay Hernandez. He won't appear on the remake, however, the new series reportedly plans to pay homage to Selleck's mustache in at least one episode.
He Doesn't Like Being Thought Of As A Sex Symbol
Selleck was one of the biggest sex symbols of his era, appearing on the cover of Playgirl magazine four times. However, he never viewed himself as a hunk. "I think of myself as an actor first, not a sex symbol. Do I think I'm sexy? No, that's someone else's judgment, and I honestly don't think you can try to be sexy and really succeed," he said in a 1989 interview with the Chicago Tribune.
He Was The First Celebrity Guest On 'The View'
In 1997, Selleck was the first ever celebrity guest on the talk show "The View." Since then, the actor has made 16 more appearances during the show's run of more than 20 years. Most recently, he appeared on "The View" to promote "Blue Bloods."
He Was An Honorary Captain Of The 1984 Olympics
Selleck was the honorary captain of the U.S. Olympic Men's Volleyball team in 1984. That year, the Olympics were held in Los Angeles. Volleyball was one of several sports the actor played in real life.

The thing about my sister and I, we always have completely different versions of the same event. She say potato, I say french fries with ketchup please.
She thinks my obsession with "Rewards" programs is borderline crazy….I say, I like earning points, getting perks and discounts for things I do everyday. Show me the rewards and I'm a loyal customer!
I get a warm fuzzy feeling at the thought of earning an extra 30 points with my DD rewards app when I make a purchase after 2pm. I'm only a few points away from a FREE French Vanilla Iced Coffee.
I enjoyed quite a few hazel nut frappuccinos with caramel/hazel drizzle and my son, vanilla bean frapp with extra caramel drizzle, to become GOLD member at Starbucks. FREE drink on my birthday!
My ICON card thrills me with every discount movie and FREE refill.
And my AMC Stubs card, well, I've got a bonus seductively waiting, wanting me to cash it in for a FREE combo. Yes!
So of course my rewards senses started to tingle when I heard I could earn rewards and discounts on traveling. Stopped me in my tracks!!
Say what now?! How can this be true? I can google and get a good travel deal, right? Let me be honest, it's makes my brain hurt when I try to put a vacation package together that's affordable for my family and I. It can be overwhelming. I studied Hospitality Management so I understand the Travel & Hospitality Industry but limited in navigating the perks.

Where to begin! Well I had a little holiday, as you know, to Croatia and that was absolute bliss. I'd been feeling very stressed and worn out before but we booked a fairly last minute break and it was just what the doctor ordered. Lots of people expected me to write a bunch of songs out there but that's not really how my mind works and was too busy ostrich-ing in the sea watching all the fish swim by. Apparently I looked very silly and should learn to snorkel properly... maybe next time!
So we've been back a week putting the finishing touches on the album artwork for 'Time' and working hard to pay everything off. I'm very proud of all the hard work Ben, Nev and Jen have put into it as they've made me look fairly epic on the front so hopefully in a months time I'll have it in my hands and be able to look at where and when to launch.
I had a nice, quiet gig at Saunton Road Studios last night which was a nice way to end the week. It was lovely to finally meet Amy as we've exchanged emails over the years and I've obviously heard so many positive things about her. I have to say it's a great space for any musician, there's a very cool wood-chopped wall in the studio and I especially liked the paintbrush handle on the door...which I felt compelled to brush my hand with... I really can't not touch. It was a cosy atmosphere and a great opportunity to do some new songs; I pretty much gave up on the set list and just played what felt right and hoped they went down well. I even threw in a new cover that I proudly learned in 2 days - I can't even learn my own songs in 2 days! So I'm feeling refreshed, motivated and ready for Bristol next week - just can't decide what instruments to take!

Now I've left this entry for a couple weeks as I wanted to gather some positivity and not just moan about deadlines and work engulfing all my energy so here I am, back on form!
Let's start with the fun I had playing on Colin's show on the Voice FM last Saturday :-) It is always an absolute joy to see that man chuckling away on the microphone and looking on in wonder as I struggle to identify the tracks on 'what's-the-word.' I do know loads of genres and artists, honest, it's just they never seem to be in that segment... Anyway thank you for the advice given on facebook I did indeed play the Thatcher as requested and mixed it up with a bit of banjo on the last track, Anchor... but that's not what everyone is talking about. I've had three separate people rip it out of me this week for not knowing where to get tickets for my own gig. Alright alright :-) So I'm as dense as some celestial atmosphere but hey at least Ben was there, that is one of his primary roles after all, making sure I don't completely screw things up ;-).
Remarkably people did find tickets and it was a packed yet cosy atmosphere in St. Mary's Hall last night. I'd had a crazy day teaching, working and negotiating lifts which left me with little time for anything else so by the time I reached the venue I had no set list and some very grubby boots on.
I always used to think preparation was the key for a gig but I have to say writing a set list 20 mins before I went on seemed to work for me last night, as a friend said, it allowed for spontaneity which is 'what I'm all about.' Aww 'n'that nice? I did about six new songs and really mixed things up and somehow the chaos of the day dissolved into a delicate evening of thought therapy. I should mention a few of my typical faux pas though as they are, as usual, quite splendid. As I mentioned before I had very grubby cowboy boots on and so I'd packed my polish to sort them out after sound checking...what I didn't realise was that some of that polish had made its way onto my chest and I then spent the next 2 hours singing away with a red splodge on my boob. Sadly this was pointed out to me so no I didn't get away with it! Maybe next time I'll find a mirror before I go on, or not leave polishing to the very last minute! The second epic fail was when a friend got up to leave and, I thought, extended their arm as if to shake and I did-a-Cameron and half put my hand out to greet it but no such thing happened and it was instead left hanging awkwardly as I said goodbye. sssssss ouch! Whoops, hopefully the people still sitting down at this point were oblivious but I mean really, how do I manage it?
It was wonderful to see so many friends in the audience last night and I sold an astonishing amount of CDs which has really helped so here's where I do all my thank yous: Thank you to everyone who bought a CD, t to everyone who paid me a compliment as they left, to those who posted on social media how much they enjoyed it, and to Marcos and GTS in general for lending me their microphones, stands and cables as it was looking like an acoustic set 48hrs ago and I really could not of done it without them! Ben it goes without saying that I am forever in your debt, thank you for doing the sound despite not being a sound technician, you did a fantastic job and kept me very calm :-)
So now I am off of holiday for a week to recover and hopefully by the time I come back I will be able to give you an update on my new album 'Time' and where we are now. Lots of people last night were asking about it and I can reassure you it's on its way, another month perhaps and I should have it in my hand :-)
All the best, I'll see you in a week (or so!)

So it's been a few weeks since my trek up north and I've been trying to get back into the swings of things since then, somewhat literally last weekend as we decided we were overdue some fun and hit the rides at the Dorset Steam Fair. I love all things old and brassy and this place blew me away. I saw my first monster truck show, which included a quad bike jumping over a semi through flames as well as a monster truck tuck o' war... with a car.... it was truly epic but I couldn't help but fear for the life of the stunt guy whenever he was lining up his approach to jump. The best part, I admit, was when night began to fall and the traction engines lit up and came to life, what a magical sight, even if I was at that point being suspended from a giant, swirling joy ride from hell! Sadly there are no pictures of that ride but you get the idea.
Work has been quieter which has made me a bit twitchy. They say, 'the devil makes work for idle hands' and I guess I've gone into overdrive with crafting for my kickstarter rewards as well as recording demos. I know, I know... let's get 'Time' finished first and yes I have been working on that too! This weekend was spent dressing me up in a polo neck and getting some moody shots *channeling Savage Garden and pretty much every 90s spread in a fashion mag.* I'm very pleased with the results and very grateful to Nev & Jen for painting my face and allowing us to shoot in their home. I guess I can't wreck the surprise too much if I show you me messing around with ideas in the mirror before I left... This is pre-makeup, hence the filter ;)
You know what I've learnt from having someone else do my makeup? I know nothing about makeup... I showed Jen the three products I use before I go on stage and it must've looked laughable compared to her entourage of magic. I use foundation (and even then very sparingly), mascara and lip stick but I've been learning about concealer, blusher, eye shadow... there's a whole world out there to explore! Think I might get a bit dramatic at the next gig. We also made the mistake of celebrating finishing the shoot with roulette Doritoes... I should've known I would get two simultaneously and be the first to do so thus looking a fool in front of everyone when I gasped for water.
What next then? I hear you cry! Well I'm aiming for the Voice FM on September 26th 9:30am to visit the lovely Colin Slatter and play him some tunes to promote Appledore Book Festival - or at least that's my excuse, I just want to see Colin again :P I'm working on building up an interesting set for the gig and lots of friends have said they will go so I guess I'm feeling a bit like a kid who knows their parents are coming to see their play -- an extra need to impress and not go all doritoe-face on them... Appledore is my last public gig of the year so far, though I'm hoping I can squeeze in a few more, so I'm determined to go out with a bang regardless!
So there you have it, my antics in a nutshell :) Thank you for reading and for your support as always and I'll be back with more news soon,

Mosquito and Tick Control
Reclaim your Yard!
Bites from mosquitos and ticks are not only painful, they can be dangerous.
Mosquitos and ticks are much more than a pest, they can vector some of the world's most dangerous diseases such as Malaria, West Nile and Lyme Disease.
Our area of Virginia is documented as being one of the Buggiest Cities in the U.S. and as a result, many families seek refuge by staying inside!
Protect your Family...Reclaim your Yard!
Accel's Mosquito program targets both Mosquitoes and Ticks by:
1. Inspecting your property for possible mosquito breeding sites.
2. Recognizing and addressing areas of high risk around your home.
3. Targeting and treating the resting places of both mosquitoes and ticks to reduce populations.
4. These combined actions interrupt the insect's life cycle and allow us to effectively take control!
How effective is our Mosquito Service? We back it up with our 100% Guarantee!
The Importance of Mosquito Control in Virginia
Accel Pest & Termite Control understands that pest control is often an unexpected expense that may not fit into the household budget. We take tight budgets into consideration when we competitively price our services. Contact us today for a free quote for mosquito control services.
Mosquitoes are drawn to people who spend time relaxing outdoors. Serious pest control problems that lead to a steady growth in mosquito populations around a home can allow a person to be bitten dozens of times while spending only a brief amount of time outdoors. While the annoyance and itching bites associated with mosquitoes are enough to make a homeowner want to call an exterminator, the health risks that have been connected to mosquitoes make pest control essential.
Mosquitos spread diseases when they drink the blood of an infected person or animal and move on to bite another person. Many of the diseases that have been known to be spread through insect bites have the potential to be fatal.
Homeowners can keep mosquito populations under control by removing any standing water and preventing water from pooling in the future. Mosquito repellents may help people to avoid being bitten while outdoors, but the only thing that can significantly reduce mosquito populations is a professional pest control company.

Sow Grow Row plot 8A
Dedicated to all my allotment friends. ~~~ 2015
Friend helping out to dismantle…
For along time I have looked at a dismantaled green house and not a clue how to put it back together…. so now I have used lots of coloured spots and dismantled it and now ready to build with the help of coloured dots. Can not wait to start planting seeds.
