Fun and FillingWas the Severin worth it? You bet. It's my favorite go to toy when I'm looking for anal pleasure. It rarely disappoints me, and on those occasions it's only by coming out too soon. The smoothness yet firmness of the toy makes it easy to use, and just an excellent toy for anal play.
Smoothness of the Toy
Graduated Bulbs
Graduated Bulbs
Neck a Little Too Big
The Tantus Severin medium is fun plug that can give you a nice full feeling. It has enough length to reach the prostate and give good stimulation. This toy is silicone and therefore needs PLENTY of water based lube for insertion. I would not recommend this to the anal novice, as I consider it a more advanced toy. When using the Severin, I like a little warm-up first. It is not a toy that I can just take right away. I find the Anal-Flex Probe to be a good warm up toy. Once I'm relaxed, the toy can be slowly inserted. The rippled bulbs give you a resting point to prepare for the larger portions of the toy. Once fully inserted, I find it usually stays in place during intercourse. Only on rare occasion has it come out before it should. It is also great for use during oral sex or a hand job; it provides very intense orgasms.
Material / Texture
The Severin is made of silicone and did have a strong odor when we first got it. After a week or two, the odor faded away. The silicone makes it a firm toy, but the texture is very smooth for easy insertion. There are no seams and the rounded end makes it very comfortable, with no worries of scratching or tearing the sensitive lining of the anal canal. This is not a realistic toy by any means, but that is not what I look for in anal toys. I am more interested in the sensation of fullness. I would recommend this toy for more advanced users and not for anal novices. Also, you cannot use silicone lube on this toy; it will destroy it. Instead, use lots of water based lube.
Design / Shape / Size
I really like the design of the Severin medium plug. The shape provides plenty of the fullness that I find enjoyable, but the graduated bulbs make it easy to use. I find it does a fantastic job of giving a full sensation, as well as stimulating the prostate for very powerful orgasms. The Severin has 4" of insertable length, with the last bulb being 1 7/8" in diameter. The neck is 1 1/8" in diameter and the base is large enough to keep it in place without getting lost. The overall length of the Severin is 4 3/4", and the circumference is 6". It is small enough to pack in an overnight bag, so traveling is no problem. If flying, our toys go into our checked bags. That way, if someone searches our bags, at least we don't have to look at them face to face. As for the size being a good fit for the average user, I would suggest those new to anal play should start with the smaller Severin. The medium does take a little getting used to.
I love this toy. The best part about it is that the diameter is just large enough to provide the fullness I look for in an anal toy, but not big enough to be scary. The smoothness of the silicone makes it easy to slowly insert when relaxed, and the graduated design allows you to rest along the way. The only con I can think of is that I wish the neck was a little narrower. Although it doesn't happen often, it has "left the building" before finishing its job.
Care and Maintenance
Since the Severin is silicone, you must never use silicone lube. Only used water based lube. Clean up is fairly simple. Because silicone is not porous, it can be cleaned with soap and water or a good toy cleaner. It can also be placed in boiling water for a few minutes, and it is dishwasher safe. I personally don't want my toys in the dishwasher, but you can if you like. Since my wife and I don't share toys we don't use condoms, but for safety reasons use them if you do share. We keep our toys in white socks placed in our toy bags. On occasion it will pick up a little lint from being stored this way, but it cleans off with a little soap and water before use.
This is not a toy we use all the time, but when the mood is right it comes out. The mood was right last night. I have to admit that sometimes in our hurried lives we just don't spend enough time getting down and dirty. Instead, we just go for a quickie. Last night was different. Maybe it's writing these reviews that brought it on, but last night I was ready for some play. It might have helped that my wife doesn't know I am reviewing yet, and not knowing my new little secret got me ready for a good ass filling. After some oral play on her, she comes very quickly and then asks what I wanted. I said, "let me reach in the toy bag and grab the first thing I get my hand on." Of course, the Severin was already out so I could measure it, but let's not spoil the fun. I was so ready I didn't even need the warm up of a smaller toy first. Lots of lube in my ass and on the toy and it was home in nothing flat. Once it was there, all it took was a little hand job and I was in an earth shattering climax.

I have owned the Sevrin medium for over a year. It's still one of my favorites, and I highly recommend it.

|D-Link Announces New Features to Line of Smart Managed Gigabit Switches
|Posted: Wed Dec 06, 2017 08:43:12 AM
D-Links DGS-1210 Series Will Now Support D-Links Popular Surveillance Mode, Simplifying Surveillance Networks and Making Them Run Faster and More Efficiently
FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif. Dec. 6, 2017 D-Link today announced the addition of new features and enhancements to its best-selling DGS-1210 Smart Managed Gigabit Switches, including Surveillance Mode graphical user interface (GUI), static routing, dual image, and combo ports. In addition, two new Power over Ethernet (PoE) models have been added to the line the DGS-1210-10MP and the DGS-1210-28MP both with robust PoE budgets ideal for surveillance networks and other demanding PoE applications.
Surveillance Mode is an optional management user interface (UI) that may be used in place of the Standard Mode UI. Surveillance Mode simplifies the configuration of a surveillance network by detecting compatible ONVIF cameras and NVRs and assigning them to a dedicated surveillance VLAN. This UI features a simple, intuitive network topology map that provides users with more information about what is connected to each port, such as the number of devices, device type, IP and MAC addresses, power consumption, link speed, and errors.
The DGS-1210 Series will also support static routing. With static routing, IP routes are manually entered into a routing table, which allows for communication between different user groups in different VLAN segments in a network. The switches can directly handle inter VLAN routing using multiple interfaces, making the network run faster and more efficiently.
IP Surveillance networks are one of the most common uses for the DGS-1210 Series switches, said Steven Olen, director of product marketing, D-Link Systems. The addition of new features, including Surveillance Mode UI, makes these switches even more ideal for surveillance applications, while at the same time maintaining a price point that IT and Security professionals can afford.
In addition to the new feature enhancements to the DGS-1210 Series, D-Link also introduced two new models to the DGS-1210 Series family the DGS-1210-10MP and the DGS-1210-28MP. Both switches will support robust PoE budgets and include an extensive set of Layer 2 switching and security features. The DGS-1210-10MP supports standards-based IEEE 802.3at PoE across all eight Gigabit ports, with a total PoE budget of 130W. The DGS-1210-28MP supports 802.3at PoE across all twenty-four Gigabit ports, with a total PoE budget of 370W.
More about the DGS-1210 Series Enhancements:
The DGS-1210-10MP and DGS-1210-28MP models are now available for purchase. The new feature enhancements to the DGS-1210 Series will be incorporated into all models by December 2017.

Are you coachable?
by Michael Rutherford, 2003
Over the past 30 days I have had the occasion to run into some former students. While I pride myself on a high success rate, these two individuals are pulling down my statistics! Both of these students failed miserably under my tutelage.
In my early years I took student failure very personally. It had to be my fault. I knew how to go from A to B. I just didn't communicate the recipe successfully.
After years of seasoning, I realized that in several cases it was not my fault. Certain folks are simply not coachable. They talk a good game about improvements or change but they are simply not committed to the coaching process.
Are you coachable? Do you have the commitment it takes to maximize your coaching experience? The quiz below developed by Robert Kiyosaki will shed some light on your potential for accepting coaching. If you fail this test you might need to retrench before investing in the coaching process.
Answer "yes" or "no" to these 10 statements if you're thinking about getting a coach:
1. I am willing to make the coaching process an investment in myself. I view it as a long-term approach to creating changes in my life. I am not looking for a quick fix.
2. I am ready to do the work necessary to get me where I want to be, and I will let the coach do the coaching.
3. I am willing to change any self-defeating behaviors that are creating a barrier to my success.
4. I accept responsibility for my actions and will not expect the coach to "fix" me, because I know I'm the only one who can make it happen.
5. I have adequate funds to pay for coaching and will not regret the investment. I view coaching as a worthwhile investment in me, not an expense, and I will not allow finances to be a barrier to coaching.
6. I am willing and able to be completely truthful with my coach, and I'm ready to hear the truth from my coach even if it is uncomfortable at first.
7. Coaching is the appropriate process for the changes I want to make.
8. I am able to commit the time needed to make and keep scheduled coaching sessions and to do the field work that my coach asks of me.
9. I'm open to trying new things when my coach asks me, even if they aren't completely comfortable or I'm not convinced they will make a difference.
10. This is the right time in my life for me to accept coaching.
Now score yourself: If you answered "no" to two or more questions, you will need to make some adjustments, either in your lifestyle or in your expectations of coaching, before coaching will be fully effective.

Boko Haram, the terrorist organisation behind the kidnapping of over 200 schoolgirls from a boarding school in Nigeria in April, have released a video of the girls in their captivity.
It's not clear when the video was made, and shows the girls talking to the camera in floor-length Islamic dress.
The Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau confirms in the video that the stolen girls have been converted to Islam and would not be released until militant Boko Haram prisoners are released
This follows a video from Abubakar himself where he threatened to sell the girls on the black market, and voiced his anger at the girls receiving a 'western education' - being of the belief that girls shouldn't be educated at all, they should just be married.
Search parties attempting to find the girls have been unsuccessful, and the Nigerian resuce efforts are being criticised for being seemingly very poor. There are reports that the girls will be forced to marry their captors before being trafficked across countries and terrifyingly vanishing without a trace.
US secretary of state John Kerry has called on the Nigerian president to step up the search efforts, and protests campaigning for increased recovery efforts have been held worldwide - you can keep up with the campaign by following the #bringbackourgirls hashtag on Twitter.

3 out of 4 First time buyers have funds for deposit
A significant proportion of first time buyers have mortgage approval while most of them have saved up cash for a deposit according to a new survey by leading Irish property website MyHome.ie.
According to the findings, one third of first time buyers have received mortgage approval while a further 36% are actively seeking approval.
Seventy five per cent of first time buyers say they have the required funds to pay a deposit while 60% of existing homeowners say they have sufficient funds.
The majority of the 1,800 people surveyed strongly believe that house prices are set to fall further in 2012. Ninety four per cent of first time buyers believe they have further to go while 86% of homeowners see them declining further.
Despite this, half of first time buyers said they plan on buying a property in the next 12 months, while 42% remain undecided. Nine per cent said they wouldn't be buying.
However only 20% of existing homeowners are planning to buy a property, 38% say they won't be while the largest group remains the undecideds on 42%.
According to the survey two thirds of existing homeowners and 52% of first time buyers do not believe financial institutions are lending.
While 65% of homeowners believe institutions are not lending, 43% believe financial institutions are over regulated or over cautious when granting mortgage approval.
First time buyers have a more positive view of financial institutions with over half believing they are lending. However they are split evenly – 38% each - on whether they are over regulated or over cautious. A quarter of those surveyed are unsure.
Angela Keegan, Managing Director of MyHome.ie said the findings showed that availability to mortgage finance and consumer confidence were the key factors influencing participation in the housing market.
While the over whelming majority of first time buyers believe house prices are set to fall further 37% believe they will fall moderately (between 5 to 10%) while 34% believe they will fall slightly (1 to 5%) and 20% believe they will fall significantly (10 to 15%).
Homeowners had a very similar outlook with 35% believing they will fall moderately, 34% that they will fall slightly and 14% believing they will fall significantly.
Keegan said these figures might help explain why so many were still planning to buy in the next 12 months. "First time buyers monitor the market very closely and while most of them believe prices look set to fall by up to 10%, many may well be factoring in mortgage interest relief measures announced in the Budget. The survey shows that the 3 bed semi d remains the house of choice for prospective buyers and we believe this house type in good locations will be the first to recover" Keegan said.

It's Catholic School's Week!
Dress like a Cowgirl or Cowboy
Dress like a Cowgirl or Cowboy
was the theme on Thursday at
Maddy's school!
It was Maddy's favorite day of the week!
She also enjoyed Dress Like a Teacher (a dress-up day) and
spirit day which allowed for jeans and a Cathedral or Pius tee-shirt!
When you wear a uniform every single day, a few days of real clothes makes the kiddos so happy!
We love our Catholic schools!
While we have excellent public schools here,
Mr. Tennis and I made the decision to send our kids to Catholic schools.
Having our kids learn about and practice their faith at school and daily mass
and throughout the day every day is so wonderful and important to us.
Add to that the excellent teachers and education being offered
made our Catholic schools a very good choice for our family.
We love that the priests visit the classrooms often and the teachers and staff
can teach about God every day.
We know there is power in prayer - we've seen it in action.
Our school may not offer the latest gadgets and electronics, but it does offer an
education in faith and virtues that will carry them throughout their life.
We love our Catholic Schools!

We can learn a great deal about migraine and other headache disorders online. We can also do pretty well supporting each other online. There are, however, advantages to meeting in person at times.
The American Headache and Migraine Association's (AHMA) fourth annual conference for patients and their families and friends is quickly approaching. The conference is a great opportunity to attend educational sessions with presentations by some of the field's top experts including Dr. Richard Lipton and Dr. Rob Cowan. At the end of each presentation, attendees will have the opportunity to ask the presenters related questions.
Dr. Lipton is co-Director of the Montefiore Headache Center, an interdisciplinary subspecialty center focused on headache, patient care, research and education. He is also the Edwin S. Lowe Professor and Vice Chair of Neurology, Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health and Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Dr. Lipton has published more than 500 original articles. He has been awarded the H.G. Wolff Award for excellence in headache research from the American Headache Society three times and the Enrico Greppi award from the European Headache Federation.
Dr. Rob Cowan is Professor of Neurology and Director of the Headache Program at Stanford University. Prior to joining Stanford he was the founding medical director of the Keeler Center for the Study of Headache (Ojai, CA) and senior clinical research scientist in molecular neurobiology at Huntington Medical Research Institutes (Pasadena, CA). He is widely published in various scientific journals, including the Journal of the American Medical Association, Cephalalgia and Headache. He has authored many scientific posters and book chapters. Dr. Cowan lectures both nationally and internationally on a variety of headache topics, and has appeared on NBC, CBS and has been featured in articles ranging from the San Francisco Chronicle to Vogue Magazine.
Conferences also afford us opportunities meet and network with fellow migraine and headache patients. In my experience, meeting other patients in this way has resulted in valuable ongoing friendships.
This year's AHMA conference will be held on Sunday, June 12, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., at the Marriott Grand Marquis, San Diego.
Conference sessions will include:
- Newly Approved Treatments and Treatments in the Pipeline (presented by Dr. Richard Lipton)
- Integrative Treatment for Migraine and Headache (presented by Dr. Rob Cowan)
- Types of Advocacy and Being Our Own Best Advocate (presented by Teri Robert)
- A special session for family members, friends, and caregivers - both for information and support.
- Much more!
There will also be a session at the end of the day where attendees may bring up topics not covered in the day's sessions. The doctors who have presented the sessions during the day will be available to discuss the topics brought up in this session.
The low conference registration fee of $35 per person includes a buffet lunch as well as morning and afternoon breaks with refreshments. Care is being taken to ensure that there are options to allow attendees to avoid migraine trigger foods. There will also be a "quiet room" available for anyone who tires or gets a migraine and needs a dim, quiet place to rest.
Those of you for whom fragrance is a migraine trigger will be glad to know that AHMA recognizes this as an enormous issue, so this is a _fragrance-free event _. Attendees should refrain from any use of perfume, cologne, aftershave, scented lotions or any other product with fragrance. Anyone wearing fragrance will be escorted outside and given assistance in removing the fragrance.
This promises to be an exciting and informative conference. There will be opportunities to learn from leading migraine and headache specialists, meet other patients, and make new friends. I'll be presenting the session on advocacy and would love to meet you there! For more information, please see the conference information page.

Logicomix: An Epic Search for Truth
by Apostolos Doxiadis and Christos H. Papadirmitrou
2009 / 352 pages
rating: 9.5 / graphic fictional bio and philosophy
This is a really fun novel if you're into philosophy, logic and mathematics as taught by Bertrand Russell, Kurt Gödel, Leonard Wittgenstein and others of those stripes and eras.
Strangely enough the graphic novel suits this story – it really works to keep the pace going and the interest up. The structure of the narrative also adds to the pacing with a first frame which includes the authors and artists devising the inner narratives which consist of another frame of Russell giving a talk about his life and a backstory of Russell's life and career. The relevant concepts of logic, philosophy and mathematics are the focus but at a high school and theory level – only a very few basic formulas involved.
It would seem that the mathematicians were the last of the Enlightenment thinking humans could attain all material knowledge and that it could be empirically proven. The book is basically a biography fictionalized only in regards to the graphics and some of the scenes there – As far as I could gather the basic information is accurate – including all the madness in mathematicians.
The graphics are exceptionally well done adding appropriately to the text. The places where Russell is actually giving his talk get a bit boring.
There's a great appendix explaining the concepts and personalities involved.

New video promotes advance care planning
Visit the Winnipeg Health Region's Advance Care Planning site
Winnipeg Health Region
Published Thursday, August 1, 2013
Asking people to think about their wishes for medical care if illness or injury strikes or if a chronic health condition worsens isn't the easiest conversation to start.
But it's a necessary one. One that many Canadians haven't had.
A March 2012 Ipsos-Reid national poll found that 86 per cent of Canadians have not heard of advance care planning, and that less than half have had a discussion with a family member or friend about health-care treatments if they were ill and unable to communicate, according to a posting on advancecareplanning.ca. Only nine per cent have had a conversation with their doctor or care-giver.
What happens if you don't speak English? And what role does culture play in having a conversation about end of life health care issues?
That's something the recently launched video called ACP Discussion in Renal Health hopes to get people thinking about. Aboriginal Health Services - including Brenda Roland, Martha Baker and Amie Lesyk - were key supports in making this video happen. Betty Ross, Dr. Paul Komenda and Gordon Dumas offered their talents in front of the camera and Julie Lorenz acted as a clinical lead for the video shoot.
The resource is the latest resource added to the advance care planning tools and resources web page. Along with the new Goals of Care form, there are communication tips, a patient workbook (which explains terms in user-friendly language and poses thought-provoking questions to help a person better understand and choose their goals of care), frequently asked questions, videos and other resources to help guide individuals through these sensitive discussions.
"We've been looking at producing this resource for quite some time now, and I'm so proud of the end result," says Lori Lamont, Vice President of Interprofessional Practice and Chief Nursing Officer for the Region and Adjunct Professor (External) for the University of Manitoba. "The video offers but one example of how the Region is offering support and resources for the people we care for and the people who care for them in having these tough conversations. It's really powerful to see the impact that can have in a medium like video. I know this tool is one people will find very helpful."
Everyone can benefit from having these tough conversations but it's particularly important for people living with chronic health conditions. For health care providers, phrasing important questions in a culturally sensitive way is part of compassionate service delivery.
"When we were shooting the video, we were informed that using the word 'die' is offensive to Aboriginal people. Because the video shoot was a collaborative process, when someone identified red flags around this, we were able to tinker the language to be more culturally appropriate and sensitive while still communicating the important things that needed to be communicated," says Tracy Thiele, Project Manager, Nursing Initiatives. "We all learned during the process of shooting the video and as a result had the chance to make the video even better. In some cases the language choices may be subtle but slight changes create different nuances to be mindful of."
From a patient perspective, having an end of life conversation with the use of an interpreter is important to see. The video depicts the interpreter speaking Cree but interpreter services for 34 different languages are available at no cost in the Region.

When you have a knee injury or arthritis, particularly osteoarthritis, the damage, inflammation, and pain can limit your ability to flex and extend your knees. Over time, the deterioration of your joint and surrounding tissue can make it difficult to perform basic daily activities, even sitting and lying down. Knee replacement surgery is a common solution for people whose knees have become too worn from this deterioration.
Knee replacement provides dramatic pain relief for more than 90 percent of those who've undergone this surgery. Most of these procedures are done to replace knees damaged by osteoarthritis. The procedure was introduced in 1968. Total knee replacement is considered one of the safest and most effective procedures in orthopedics.
During a total knee replacement, a surgeon removes some bone and cartilage from the areas of your thighbone and shin bone, where they meet at your knee joint. The surgeon then replaces the knee area of your thighbone with a metal implant and the knee area of your shinbone with a plastic implant. This gives both bones of your knee joint smooth surfaces again so they can flex and bend more freely and painlessly. In many cases, the surgeon also replaces the undersurface of your kneecap with a plastic coating.
There are many things to consider when you are deciding whether to have total knee replacement. This video highlights these considerations.
Partial knee replacement involves only replacing the part of your knee that's damaged or arthritic. The advantage to this approach is that it requires a smaller incision. It also involves less bone and blood loss. As well, it causes less pain during recovery than a total knee replacement.
People who have a partial knee replacement tend to have a faster recovery time than those who have a total knee replacement. However, there are disadvantages, including the possibility that you'll have to eventually have further surgery if arthritis develops in the parts of the knee that aren't replaced.
Bilateral knee replacement surgery is the replacement of both of your knees at the same time. An advantage to bilateral knee replacement is that you only have to go through this procedure and recovery process once if both of your knees are affected.
However, a disadvantage is that the recovery time takes longer, and you're more likely to need much more assistance during recovery. Learn more about what is involved in the process and recovery of bilateral knee replacement.
The cost of a total knee replacement can vary. It can depend on where you're having the procedure and your health at the time of the replacement. If you have other conditions that are not related to your knees, they may affect the procedure and cost as well.
When you're considering the cost of the procedure, you should also consider all of the related costs, such as your hospital stay and physical therapy in the hospital and during your recovery at home.
You should also know how much of the cost that your insurance will pay and how much you'll be expected to pay out of your own pocket. This Healthline article outlines many of the cost considerations you should be aware of when deciding to have total knee replacement surgery.
After a total knee replacement, you should expect to spend three to five days at the hospital. Usually before you leave the operating room, your knee may be cradled in a passive motion machine, and medical staff will monitor the flexion (bending in) and extension (straightening out) limits of your knee.
You might begin weight-bearing therapy immediately after the operation. In addition, you will have some combination of physical and occupational therapy at the hospital. In most cases, you'll likely be able to stand and walk, at least with the assistance of a cane or walker, before you leave the hospital.
Most of your recovery and rehabilitation will be at home after you leave the hospital. Some people need home health care or assistance.
Your doctor will most likely prescribe physical therapy at a local clinic for continued rehabilitation. The physical therapist at this clinic will suggest exercises you can do at home.
Everyone recovers a little differently following a total knee replacement. It generally takes 12 weeks to complete the rehab process and 6 months to a year to get back to full strength. Here's a detailed timeline of the rehabilitation and recovery process after a total knee replacement.
During recovery from total knee replacement, your physical therapist will most likely have an exercise protocol for you to follow. These exercises will help to strengthen your knee and speed up your healing. It's important for you to closely follow this protocol so that your recovery stays on track and you return to your normal daily activities as quickly as possible.
You may be able to speed this process up further by strengthening the area around your knee before surgery. Learn some exercises that you can do before surgery that may help to make your recovery time shorter.
You'll have pain for a while after your knee replacement. However, your doctor will give you medication to help manage this. It's important to let your doctor know how well your medication is working for you. Find out what to expect and ways to manage any pain you may experience after having a knee replacement.
A typical knee replacement lasts between 15 years and 20 years. According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, currently more than 90 percent of modern total knee replacements are still functioning well 15 years after surgery. The American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons states that there is between an 80 percent and 85 percent chance that your total knee replacement will last 20 years. Learn the answers to more common questions that people have about total knee replacement.
Today, knee replacements are safe. Very few people have complications. Thoroughly discuss the benefits and risks of total knee replacement with your surgeon about this procedure before you decide to have it. You may also want to consider the cost of surgery and follow-up care as well as how much time you'll need to take off from work for recovery and rehabilitation.
Total knee replacement increasingly is an attractive and viable option for many people, especially those dealing with chronic knee pain or unable to participate in common activities. After surgery and recovery, many people are able to participate in activities they used to do, such as walking, bicycling, golf, tennis, and swimming. As the pain from surgery begins to go away and you're able use your knee like you used to, your quality of life will most likely improve.

Jon Hamm, star of AMC's Mad Men, spoofed Sen.-elect Scott Brown on this weekend's episode of Saturday Night Live. In a sketch that parodied Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.), Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) discussing the future of the Democratic party's agenda, Hamm kept popping into a conference room where the Democrats were talking.
With a flashy smile and apologetic attitude, Hamm kept entering the room in the sketch, first mistaking it for the cafeteria and then wishing to change his shirt because he spilled taco sauce on it.

SEC halts trading in dozens of stocks
(MoneyWatch) The Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday halted trading in the shares of 61 companies, part of a crackdown in so-called empty shell companies.
The SEC's "Operation Shell Expel" is intended to tackle manipulation of small, publicly traded companies that are dormant and thus become ripe for fraud. Because such firms are so thinly traded, crooks can more easily manipulate their stock price by hyping the companies as ongoing concerns, gulling investors to buy shares.
"Stock manipulators crave empty shell companies that they can use to conduct pump-and-dump schemes and line their pockets with illicit trading profits by taking advantage of unsuspecting investors," said Andrew Ceresney, co-director of the SEC's division of enforcement, in a statement. "We will aggressively suspend trading in such empty shells to take away a tool of their trade and help rid our markets of fraud."

- Revolving door spins gently for SEC's White
- SEC dodges lawsuit for Madoff fiasco
Some of the suspended listings are connected to household names, such as Pabst Blue Ribbon beer or Ron Popeil's Ronco Corp., the maker of Veg-o-matic and Pocket Fisherman. Descriptions of CBR Brewing, for example, say it produces and sells Pabst Blue Ribbon in mainland China. It lists a Hong Kong address and says the city government of Zhauqing controls more than 65 percent of the shares.
Ronco, according to a market snapshot on Bloomberg, "engages in the development, marketing, and distribution of kitchen products and household products in the United States." Ronco filed for bankruptcy protection in 2007, a case that became contentious when then current and former executives turned on one another. But the company liquidated that same year.
Today's suspensions constitute the second-largest list of shell companies taken on by the SEC in a single day. On May 14, 2012, the SEC halted trades in a record 379 companies.
"Once a company ceases its filings and investors no longer have current information about it, there is no good reason for that empty shell to remain exposed in our public markets," said Christopher Ehrman, co-national coordinator of the SEC's microcap fraud working group, said in a statement. "In this initiative, we are committed to identifying unacceptable risks in the marketplace and removing them to safeguard investors."

Giving to the Community Two Wheels at a Time
The Holidays are always a special time of year to spend with family and loved ones. A few years ago I asked my sister, Michelle Miller who serves as director of recruitment and community involvement for AGAPE Child & Family Services, Inc., if there was anything I could do or purchase for the kids her organizations supports during the Holiday season. She mentioned there was a little boy who wanted a bicycle and fortunately I was able to purchase it for him. Feeling happy I could make a difference to this boy, I causally mentioned this to my director, Frank LeRose, and he agreed to donate a bicycle also.
The next year I wanted to purchase another bicycle for an AGAPE child and my sister informed me they were encouraging the children not to request bicycles that year (due to funding issues). I asked for a list of children who wanted bicycles and started to do a little investigating. During one of our staff meetings, current managing director, Doug Jones, mentioned he wanted to do something different that year for Christmas (instead exchanging gifts). I mentioned AGAPE and the management team overwhelming agreed to support this endeavor. In 2006, members of the FedEx Express Global Network Planning Group (GNP) management team decided to be a part of spreading holiday joy in their own small way by purchasing bicycles for some of the children of AGAPE.
In December 2007, we decided to continue this initiative by making it an entire GNP department effort and included the rest of our staff. The management team suggested that instead of each work group taking their manager out to lunch or exchanging gifts within work groups for the Holidays, to consider donating funds to purchase bicycles for AGAPE instead. Each work group overwhelming agreed. We expanded upon the previous year's gift giving effort by purchasing bicycles/tricycles for 10 children.
This year, again thanks to the generous donations of the GNP department, we were able to purchase 13 bicycles!
The FedEx Corporation does a lot for the community during this time, but I wanted to showcase how FedEx team members still feel the need to support the community. I'm interested to hear if your group has done anything similar.
On behalf of the children and families of AGAPE I deeply thank all of you with the GNP department for your generosity this year. We are still waiting for pictures, but I have been told that some kids were so excited Christmas morning because of your kindness…I will send pictures and stories as we get those.
Also, I am very thankful for and proud of my "twin brother" Michael Miller 🙂 for having the heart to develop this effort each year.
Thanks to all of you and we wish you a very blessed 2009!

Why Print Is Proving To Be The Secret Weapon In The Supermarket War
In this analysis piece, Australasian Catalogue Association CEO Kellie Northwood (pictured below) looks at how Coles, Woolworths and ALDI are capitalising on the power of print to stake their claim in the supermarket world.
Supermarket giants are known for their success in catalogue marketing. They have perfected the art of supplying consumers with a large product range and take-notice sales, offering value, service, and quality every week.
Due to the success of this channel, supermarkets have expanded their print marketing strategy, tapping into the world of magalogues (a catalogue and magazine hybrid), and producing product specific catalogues to communicate with consumers.
Nearly eight million Australians read a supermarket catalogue every week, and out of those, more than half (5.4 million) made a purchase from a catalogue in the last seven weeks.
Supermarket retailers capitalise on the strong reach and readership of catalogues to reinforce brand equity and entice consumers in store, yet what are customers looking for when they read a catalogue?
Sales are the main priority for many grocery buyers, as they spend on average $182.24 a week on their food shop, according to Roy Morgan Research. Of them, 65 per cent consider low prices a top five factor when choosing their supermarket, and 47 per cent go out of their way in search of a bargain.
The Coles, Woolworths and ALDI battle to be Australia's top supermarket is fierce, and ensuring each brand communicates its point of difference is key.
Coles is staying present in the minds of customers beyond their weekly catalogue through their self-titled magalogue. The Coles publication features hero products to make cooking and the consumers' shopping experience easier.
The company understands their readers and are aware that not everyone has the time to create healthy, tasty recipes. To assist their time-poor customer, Coles has included the 'Trolley Dash' section featuring easy to make recipes with a strict budget consciousness for families.
An increased focus from Coles on its audience motivations is proving to be a clever content marketing switch for its magalogue, as readers spend on average 8 per cent more each week than people who don't read the title.
The publication and its engagement add value to the Coles brand, positioning it as a friend, sharing food tips in a relaxed language normally saved for friends and family.
Woolworths has operated in this space for a while and held strong catalogue marketing for some time. Linking their magalogue and weekly catalogue together is building connectivity across multiple platforms.
Woolworths' Fresh magalogue provides more depth to their brand beyond the products on offer.
An educational element is filtered throughout the magalogue with expert opinions from credible chefs and insights into the behind the scenes growing process of fresh food – a strong alignment with Woolworths' 'Fresh Food People' brand positioner.
With a circulation of 1.5 million per month, Fresh is delivering for Woolworths as 91 per cent of readers make a purchase after reading the magalogue.
Fresh is used as a platform to educate consumers and offer more value to their shopping experience, building brand loyalty, whilst the catalogue links the celebrity chefs and tips reinforcing the weekly dialogue and touchpoints.
Supermarket giants aren't limiting themselves to the traditional weekly tabloid catalogue, now building catalogues specific to new target markets.
Woolworths' Pet Owner range, Coles' Beauty book and the strongest performer, ALDI's SKI catalogue, are demonstrating how the medium is being re-worked for success.
ALDI's May 2016 SKI catalogue aimed towards ski enthusiasts looking for high-quality gear at affordable prices.
The catalogue's objective was to raise consumer awareness of ALDI's increased product range, and it worked. Last ski season, ALDI became the number one retailer of ski gear in Australia during the campaign.
In this competitive sector, the 2017 Canstar Blue survey revealed ALDI may well be batting above its weight, receiving a four-star rating and beating out the competition Coles and Woolworths which both received three stars.
A sector which was once dominated by Coles and Woolworths, they are now having to fight even harder to gain the title of best retailer in Australia, as the underdog has taken their place.
With Canstar Blue reporting 39 per cent of consumers do all their shopping with the same supermarket chain, frequent catalogue campaigning is key.
With value for money being the strongest customer satisfactory driver at 29 per cent, weekly catalogues highlighting value and brand credentials is critical.
With support from magalogues reinforcing brand identity and recall triggers, the 'in-home' readership of print with strong content is delivering strong ROI.
Retailers in the supermarket sector are using the power of print to fuel the battle for best supermarket, proving time and time again its success in capturing consumers' attention.
Through print – whether it being catalogue, custom publications or general product brochures – companies are able to promote their brand and their products in a content-rich and meaningful manner.
Coles, Woolworths and ALDI are the leaders is working these channels to achieve strong outcomes, and the savviest retail marketer will take note and apply to their sector without hesitation.

Talking Points
Paul is recognized as a pioneer of online retail in Australia. But he is also a registered psychologist with a keen interest in organizational and consumer psychology. In this keynote, he explores 'retail feel'. He cautions that with our obsessive focus on big data, we dare not forget that retail is a deeply creative endeavour at its core. He argues that emotive connection is where the art of retention dwells, in an increasingly homogenous retail industry. And in leadership he explores the shift from IQ to EQ, as the core skill driving successful retail.
Retail Feel - The Retail Shrink!
Retail Feel - The Retail Shrink!
Paul is the founder and chair of NORA.org.au, The Voice of New Retail. In this keynote, he explores the convergence of physical and digital retail, as well as, a technology led, customer centric and increasingly global/borderless retail. He argues that Australian retailers, in an attempt to deal with unprecedented change, have often engaged in channel definitions of their business models. Bricks and mortar, clicks and bricks, multi-channel, omni-channel, pure play online, the list goes on. But the recognition that customers engage with a brand, not a channel, has shifted the focus. Inevitably, Paul argues that it will all become "retail" once more, the sooner the better
New Retail - It's Not Offline or Online
New Retail - It's Not Offline or Online
Paul was 45 years old when he launched Australia's first online department store, DealsDirect. In less than ten years, the business had been sold to private equity and Packer family interests, and subsequently listed on the Australian Stock Exchange. The current market capitalization-now over $120m. In this talk, Paul shares his belief that opportunity is everywhere and the Lucky Country delivers if one has a go.

Helicopter Involved in Fatal 2011 Crash Not Certified To Fly In Weather Conditions
A National Transportation Safety Board investigation into a 2011 medical transport helicopter crash that led to the deaths of two Mayo Clinic employees and the death of the pilot/owner of the helicopter, has determined that the helicopter used in the flight was not certified to fly in the weather conditions it encountered.
The Florida Times-Union reports the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville had contracted SK Logistics to fly a helicopter to pick up a heart needed for a transplant. Unfortunately, the helicopter never made the pick up, as it crashed into a 50-foot tree in a remote area in Clay County.
An ex-employee of the now defunct company said that the area where the helicopter crashed was known to often be foggy, and visibility could be near zero at 200 to 400 feet. It was determined that the helicopter used for the pick up was not certified for use under those conditions and was not equipped with an autopilot or radar altimeter.
Disturbingly, SK Logistics had a helicopter that would have been certified to make the flight, but it had been down for maintenance since August of that year. The crash occurred the day after Christmas in 2011.
Reports indicate that the company may have been in financial trouble and suggest that is why maintenance and upgrades to the helicopters were delayed. According to the Times-Union, the Mayo Clinic had been looking for another company to meet its medical transport needs due to those delays.
After the death of the owner in the crash, the company filed for bankruptcy and was dissolved. A wrongful death lawsuit was filed by the family of one of the Mayo Clinic employees killed in the crash.

I was lucky enough to get a seat in the fast train to Karjat. The plan was to alight at Neral as my destination was Matheran. The next train was after a gap of 50 minutes, so I was sure that this train would be very crowded.
As I suspected, it was. I could not imagine having to travel so far to work every day of your life. And yet so many people have to do it, just so that they can earn a living.
Neha got in at Ghatkopar in the Ladies compartment of the train. We met at Neral at 8:29 am and decided to trek all the way to Dasturi Naka.
We kick-started our trek at 8:45 am at Neral on the road leading to Matheran.
A number of cabs going to Matheran overtook us along the way. The people in the cab appeared surprised to see us walking on a hot, sunny day. More than one of them must have thought we had lost our marbles to even consider walking all the way to Matheran in that heat.
We were supposed to reach Dasturi Naka at 12:15 pm as per our calculation. But the heat and the strain of walking along the Ghats took its toll on us and we had to take many breaks along the way. Our 2-litre bottle of water saved us.
As we walked, the climb began to get steeper and the heat more and more unbearable. We were lucky enough to get a lift from a troupe of people all packed up in a trax. There were 14 people already in it and the two of us added to the already-strained 'comfort' levels.
Finally at 2 pm we were at the parking lot at Dasturi Naka. It had taken us 20 minutes by Trax to get there. Had we tried to walk the whole distance, it would have taken us a little less than two hours. The roads right on top were extremely steep; all the vehicles have to shift to the first gear to manage this tricky stretch.
A big thank you to the family who helped us out.
It was a mistake on our part to even consider trekking up the road in the summer. The winter or the monsoon would have been less hard on us. The summer skimmed the cream out of us.

An Indian woman looks her best in a pure ethnic outfit. And if that outfit is an incredibly beautiful churidar kameez, it is hard to take eyes off her. Needless to say, a good churidar kameez needs even a better hairstyle to enhance the entire look of a person. So, if you are still stuck with the same old, boring hairdo, it's time for a serious change! Here are 10 sorted hairstyles that would look fabulous with churidar kameez and can easily make heads turn. Here we go:
1. Elegant Side-Swept Waves
If you are wearing a kameez featuring an embroidered collar or an embellished neckline, this is how you need to style your hair. However, make sure that you drape the dupatta just on the other shoulder.
Style Decoded:
- Make a small side partition and add a little volume to the crown by backcombing the hair with a rattail comb.
- Take a curling brush of wider barrel and curl up the hair starting right from the nape of the neck. It should give you large, fluffy curls, thereby giving your hair a beautiful wavy look.
- Sweep all your hair onto the shoulder opposite to the partition and fix the style with some hairspray.

- Roll up the sections of side hair separately and then, wrap them around the previous bun together. Secure with hairpins and hairspray.
3. Smart And Trendy Straight
These days straight is 'hot' in fashion. If you have medium to long hair that is well-trimmed and not very fine, just go for it and win the style game with confidence!
Style Decoded:
- Divide your hair into small sections and straighten each of them carefully with a straightening iron.
- Take all of them together, apply a hair serum thoroughly, and comb down the straightened hair.
- Add a little volume to your crown area and secure it with hair clips. Leave rest of the hair loose.

I am a Vietnam Veteran and Returned Serviceman. Back in the 1970's I was Commanding Officer of the Royal Australian Navy Clearance Diving Team based at Balmoral in Sydney and later, 2nd in command and Diving Officer of a Navy Minehunter, a specialised vessel for location and destruction of mines laid for the purpose of destroying shipping.
I left the Navy in 1979 and my wife Brenda and I came to the Whitsunday Islands to start our diving company, then called Shute Harbour Diving Services. Our involvement in diving has taken many forms during the last 36 years as Queensland became more populated and tourism grew. Together, we ran a commercial diving operation that established the mooring grid for the Whitsunday Islands. We salvaged sunken vessels, repaired damaged wharves and jetties, installed compressors and high pressure filling systems, established the first cylinder testing station in the region and acted as sales and service agents for all major international brands of scuba equipment. We also sold and serviced Bauer and Compair high pressure compressors. I still repair and maintain a wide range of commercial and recreational dive gear.
We owned and operated dive boats on the Great Barrier Reef, taking a small number of lucky divers to pristine reefs only ever seen by a hand full of fishermen. It was then that we realised the importance of absolute professionalism when divers have travelled half way around the globe to see the world's greatest natural wonder.
And that is our motivation today; to select the best recreational diving operators who give the highest priority to safety and professionalism. Through our website we endeavour to bring you the best diving experience that Cairns, The Coral Sea, The Whitsundays and The Great Barrier Reef has to offer.

Sheriff Casey Salisbury hosted Dr. Joseph Hoffman, the Medical Program Director for Mason County Emergency Medical Services program, at the monthly Sheriff Advisory Meeting held at Spencer Lake.
Sheriff Casey Salisbury said, "Bringing our citizens, medical, fire, and law enforcement representatives around the same table to explore potential life-saving, and resource-saving programs is vital to meeting the needs of Mason County."
Dr. Hoffman discussed the future development of a community paramedic program. Paramedics would be able to respond to calls in the field to treat and release patients that may not need to be transported all the way to the hospital. Mason County's emergency medical services including fire districts, Medic One, hospital districts, local tribes, and other home health providers are teaming up with Mason General Hospital to help reduce hospital readmission and reduce the frequency of 911 non-emergency callers.
Fire Commissioner Kelly McIntosh represented the North Mason Regional Fire Authority and also the Mason County Fire Commissioner's Association as current President. The fire districts include a large emergency stakeholder group of diverse resources who are working with Dr. Hoffman and the hospital to develop this community paramedic program.
Dr. Hoffman also provided information about the importance of fall prevention and CPR certification for family members and that these simple steps can make all the difference in helping to save the life of a family member.
Dr. Hoffman also discussed opiate overdoses which occur in Mason County and the application of Narcan, a drug that reverses the effect of opiate use. With the rise of opiate overdose, Narcan may be administered by first responders and could have a life-saving impact in local rural communities.
The traditional roles of law enforcement, medical and schools are changing reflecting the changes in society. Police are now administering Narcan and attending mental health training. Fire agencies are now involved in active shooter training and tactical emergency roles with police. School district staff are now dealing with active shooter and mass evacuation training. These are challenging times for first responders and school districts. Partnerships, mutual aid, cooperation and timely decision making are critical for leaders at this time.Copyright protected by Digiprove © 2016 Dedrick Allan

Cecil's Cub Gets Killed By Rival Cub, As Hunting Ban Is Lifted In Zimbabwe
cecil web5
One of Cecil the Lion's cubs has been killed by a rival male, who was trying to mate with the lion's mother.
This has obviously led to fears that the rest of Cecil's cubs could now be targeted by predators, with another blow coming on the back of the news that Zimbabwe has lifted the ban on big-game hunting only ten days after the death of Cecil and the ban was imposed.
The Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority claimed that the ban had been axed across most of the area – yet thankfully, the ban still remains in place where Cecil was actually gunned down by Walter Palmer, as well as on other farms where other animals are thought to have been killed.
cec web
Cecil's cubs and lioness not only have to worry about hunters, but also about natural selection, with Cecil's former stomping ground being visited by other male lions since his death, and one of his cubs of course losing their life after being attacked.
Speaking about the death of one of the cubs, one source told the Mirror:
One of the eight cubs was killed by a male lion after Cecil was killed.
Lions practise infanticide – the male looking to take over and mate with the three lionesses would have crushed the cub's skull as he looked to stake his claim.

Striped Slip Stitch Hat
1. More Free Patterns can be seen along the sidebar (on right side),
or you can use the Free Patterns label to view all posts.
2. Free Pseudo-Patterns or Pattern Outlines can be found using the Free Pseudo-Patterns label.
Here's my first attempt at knitting a hat using 2 colors. It was something I had been avoiding for the longest time. It turned out to be OK. The trick is trying to keep the two balls of yarn from getting tangled up. I haven't figured that out, especially when I have to put it down and then pick it up again later. It was for this reason that I didn't call this a "mindless knitting" hat, otherwise the pattern is pretty easy to memorize. This is my 9th hat for the Cap Karma Chemo Cap Project this year. This hat fits me perfectly, so that would make it a ladies xs/s size.
Stitches used in this hat include:
Ridge Check Pattern, BW2 pg 36
Stockinette Stitch, BW1 pg 10
Please email me if you would like your photo and a link to your blog (if you have one) to appear in My Readers' Gallery.
Striped Slip Stitch Hat pattern can be downloaded from Smariek Knits Yahoo Group.

The skies may soon be abuzz with package-delivering drones, and not just 'copters belonging to Amazon.
Deutsche Post DHL, a German express delivery and mail company, is testing a pilotless flier called the Paketkopter. Today the chopper successfully carried medicine from a Bonn pharmacy across the Rhine to DHL's offices.
Flying at a height of 50 feet, the drone traveled one kilometer in two minutes, according to The Local. This was just a test flight and a full-scale launch of the service, which can carry loads up to 6.6 pounds, isn't on the docket anytime soon.
"We are at the beginning of the research project," Ole Nordhoff, a DHL manager, said. "It is an exciting bit of technology."
