- Eastern Washington University (EWU) and St. Luke's Rehabilitation Institute are partnering on a new outpatient physical and occupational therapy clinic to provide additional patient access to quality care and valuable hands-on training for university students.
The collaborative clinic is located inside the Spokane Teaching Health Clinic (STHC) in Spokane's University District. EWU and St. Luke's celebrate the grand opening from 5-6 p.m., Wednesday, April 26, inside the STHC at 624 E. Front Ave.
The 5,400 square foot clinic with state-of-the-art physical, occupational and sports injury rehabilitation equipment will serve patients from the community while St. Luke's therapists collaborate with EWU faculty to incorporate student learning into their daily routine.
"This great partnership with St. Luke's gives us a way to offer students clinical experiences earlier in their programs while providing a critical service to the community," says Laureen O'Hanlon, dean of EWU's College of Health Science and Public Health. "Eastern students will be receiving a cutting-edge education that positions them well to be leaders in their fields."
The clinic will be St. Luke's tenth outpatient clinic in the community. To begin, it will be staffed with three full-time St. Luke's employees: admissions coordinator, physical therapist (PT), and occupational therapist (OT). A clinic observation room will allow EWU PT and OT students to observe treatment sessions without disrupting the delivery of patient care.
"St. Luke's remains committed to providing a space where students going into the field of rehabilitative care are able to hone their skills through observation and hands-on experience," said Nancy Webster, St. Luke's hospital administrator. "Building on existing collaborations with Eastern Washington University and other universities at our inpatient rehabilitation hospital, this new outpatient therapy program ensures the next generation of skilled therapists and provides additional therapy care to our communities."
Administrators say the clinic follows new health care trends, where health care providers from different specialties work together with patients to deliver high quality care. This inter-professional practice can improve current treatment methods and offer collaborative opportunities for students, faculty and staff.
The Spokane Teaching Health Center is a nonprofit organization formed by Providence Health Care, Empire Health Foundation and Washington State University Health Sciences Spokane. Providence operates medical residency programs and patient care for the STHC.

HOUSTON – The Marine Well Containment Co. (MWCC) has awarded a front-end engineering and design contract for underwater containment equipment. Issued by ExxonMobil on behalf of MWCC, the hardware will be used for GoM emergency response.
The scope of the work includes system engineering and design of specific subsea components including the containment assembly, manifold, control umbilicals, accumulator, dispersant injection, risers, and flowlines.
The subsea containment equipment is to be designed to create a direct connection and seal on a subsea well to prevent oil from escaping. The system will have adapters and connectors to interact with various interface points, including any well design and equipment used by oil and gas operators in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.
The new system aims to be flexible, adaptable, available for mobilization within 24 hours, and usable on a wide range of well designs and equipment, oil and natural gas flow rates, and weather conditions. The new system will be engineered to be used in water depths up to 10,000 ft (3,048 m) and have initial capacity to contain 100,000 b/d of liquids with potential for expansion.
ExxonMobil leads the engineering, procurement, and construction phase of the marine well containment system on behalf of the other MWCC sponsors Chevron, ConocoPhillips, and Shell.
"In addition to the construction of new equipment, we are continuing efforts to secure existing system components to be available for near-term use," says Lloyd Guillory, marine well containment system project executive.

"Lol souffrait d'une infériorité passagère à ses propres yeux parce qu'elle avait été abadonnée par l'homme de T. Beach."
It has been a very long time since I've attempted a novel in French, but I was feeling game. Also this was on the 1001 books to read before you die list and was cheaper to buy in its native tongue. That having been said, Duras is often difficult to decipher in your own language, but I felt like a challenge.
There are moments of sheer linguistic bliss, but also depressing moments that reflect the frustration of a woman's life which doesn't end up the way she planned. Join the club Lol, we've all been jilted at one time or another. Is that really a reason to go pursue some dodgy bloke that's having an affair with your best friend from childhood?
I'm glad I read this in beautiful Fiji. I still felt blue and cried, but at least the surrounds kept me sane. If I wanted a sob story about a middle aged woman with epic romantic failures, hmm I think I could write that book. Beyond the plot there is something other worldly about Duras that leaves me melancholy but happy to wallow in delicious words.
There were a few passages where my out of practice french perhaps let me down, but I did surprisingly well!
4 out of 5, Lol never go back to your home town, its such a downer.

On September 7th, 2018, American rapper Mac Miller tragically passed away at the youthful age of 26. It wasn't long before the entire internet responded. Everybody had something to say, creating a messy online conversation. Many were hoping for him to rest in peace, while others were fixated on blaming his ex-girlfriend, Ariana Grande, for his overdose. However, the most interesting outcome of his death was the apparent fact that thousands of "fans" came out, praising his work, calling him a legend, and claiming themselves as die-hard fans of the rapper.
We've seen this before. Following the death of XXXTENTACION, half of the internet became his biggest fans out of nowhere. The same news outlets that were once denouncing his violent and controversial past were now publishing heartfelt tributes. There is no denying that XXXTENTACION and Mac Miller were phenomenal artists, but they serve as examples of our paradoxical views towards death. Why can't an artist be appreciated while they're alive? Does our attitude, in a sense, glorify death? And if so, is this mentality detrimental?
Mac Miller had always been a hard drug user, admitting to using cocaine, codeine cough syrup, and angel dust. This was widely known, and was even ridiculed at times by the public. However, it seemed that nobody was on his side until his passing. We overlooked his problems, as we are often too self-indulgent or judgemental to acknowledge the difficulties that other people are facing. Sometimes, we even comment on their weaknesses as they struggle to combat their illnesses. Sadly, once they are no longer with us, we become curious to their hardships, wondering what battles they were fighting that they weren't strong enough to overcome.
Although it is understandable why we react this way, it can be interpreted as a glorification of death. Once his passing became viral, views on his music videos skyrocketed. Several artists & influencers posted tributes to him. He became the center of attention for the week following his passing. It is also believed that Mac predicted his death through his lyrics. In his song, "Brand Name," he rapped "To everyone who sell me drugs. Don't mix it with that bullshit, I'm hoping not to join the twenty seven club." Although he was 26 at his time of death, he was about 4 months from turning 27. "Self Care" went "Swear the height be too tall so like September I fall." The eeriness of this lyric stems from how the late rapper passed away in September, indicating that he may have been aware of his own death months before the rest of us.
If Mac Miller really was insinuating his death, is it possible that he was influenced by the fact that glorification would follow? It's difficult to face the fact that "making it" in our twisted world is so arduous without a major event as scandalous as death. But Mac definitely made his mark before he left, influencing millions with his music. It's hard to be mad at society. They are doing nothing but paying respect to the dead. However, we should appreciate artists for who they are as creatives, striving to be noticed in our busy universe while they're still alive. Otherwise, we may continue to perpetuate a dangerous societal mindset. Rest in peace, Mac Miller.

Back Support
Many people think a back injury is caused by a single event ... probably not so. It's more likely the injury results from the cumulative effect of excessive sitting, standing, bending, twisting or lifting or more importantly, by performing these tasks without caution or proper guidelines.
Before you plunge into Hercules mode to lift a huge load, first think about the task at hand and consider if the load is even safe for you to handle alone. If it's not, team up with a lifting buddy. But if you can lift it alone, ask yourself if you're taking every precaution to protect the ever-important mainframe of your body -- your spine
Go back and read these purposes again. Let us emphasize the huge responsibility of your spine to the rest of your body!
More than one million workers suffer back injuries each year accounting for one out of every five workplace injuries and illnesses. And back injuries are costly claims. They account for one-fourth of all workers compensation claims, costing businesses billions of dollars each year.
To properly align your spine and support your back's muscle groups during lifting and repetitive motion situations in a manufacturing, assembly or warehouse environment, support your back safely with a back belt. It is the perfect accessory to following proper procedures and preventing injury.
Other ways to keep your back safe and improve posture and to keep the natural curve of your spine intact is by performing a daily stretching exercise for the back. Warm up stretching will go a long way to reduce the incidence of back injury to the lower lumbar and abdominal regions. Try to keep loads below shoulder height or waist-high and remember it is good practice to lift with the load close to your body. Lastly, eliminate twisting motions, which places considerable stress on the spine.

"Playing by the FCC's Rules? Google Voice Comes Under Fire "
General Folder
The Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) recently opened an inquiry into Google Voice,
the popular messaging and call service offered by Google, and Google's practice
of blocking certain calls. The inquiry
was prompted by complaints from AT&T to the FCC accusing Google of unfairly
blocking calls to certain numbers in rural areas where local phone companies
charge high connections fees. A
bipartisan group of 20 Congressional members also submitted a letter asking the
FCC to open an investigation into Google's voice application. Google Voice
allows users to sign up for a new, single phone number that routes incoming
calls to cellular, work or home phones on services the user already has. It also provides users with free domestic
long distance calls, low rates for international calls and free add-on services
such as conference calling and voicemail transcription. As of October 28, Google estimated that 1.419
million people used Google Voice, of which 570,000 use the service seven days a
weeks. (These figures were
unintentionally revealed by Google in its response letter to the FCC by way of
an improperly formatted PDF that has since been reformatted with redactions).
The FCC's inquiry involves Google's call-blocking policy. In June, Google began noticing extremely
high-cost calls to a concentrated number of rural destinations which generated
vastly disproportionate costs. Its
internal investigations, using data filters to sort out call patterns, revealed
that the top 10 telephone prefixes (the area code plus the first three digits
of a seven digit number) to US destinations generated more than 160 times the
expected amount and accounted for 26.2 percent of its monthly U.S. costs. By August, Google began restricting calls to
certain high-cost destinations. Google's response letter to the FCC describes the Google Voice service and explains
Google's investigation into and rationale behind its call blocking policy. It claims that its engineers developed a
"tailored solution" so that Google Voice currently restricts calls to
fewer than 100 specific phone numbers, a practice which Google's counsel
believes is necessary to "prevent these schemes from exploiting the free nature of Google Voice." While
Google has only recently began blocking costly calls, the practice whereby
rural telecoms charge long distance carriers exorbitant rates to connect and
terminate calls from their networks is not new.
In many cases these telecoms partner and share revenue with adult chat
service, conference calling centers and others to attract traffic to their
networks. AT&T, and other
long-distance carriers, have long complained and sued over these so-called
traffic pumping schemes. However, as common
carriers subject to FCC regulations, they were banned in 2007 from blocking calls
and are required to deliver phone calls without discrimination to all numbers
dialed. AT&T's complaint to the FCC
is rooted in its contention that Google's call blocking policy is enabling it
to dance around this ban that applies to other carriers. However, this recent
skirmish over Google Voice is really part of a larger debate currently playing
out in the regulatory stage over "network neutrality" rules being reexamined by the FCC and AT&T has framed Google's actions as part of the
debate. In its Statement on Google Voice and Net Neutrality,AT&T stated that "By openly flaunting the call
blocking celebrex without prescription prohibition that applies to its
competitors, Google is acting in a manner inconsistent with the spirit, if not
the letter, of the FCC's fourth principle contained in its Internet Policy
Statement." The FCC's fourth principle on net neutrality states that "consumers are entitled to
competition among network providers, applications, and service providers, and
content providers." Some members
of Congress are also concerned about the adverse impact on the market and
support for universal service if Google is allowed to operate its telephone
services outside of the rules that govern carriers. As they stated in their letter to the FCC
"[I]t is our opinion that a company should not be able to evade compliance
with important principles of access and competition set forth by the FCC by
simply self-declaring it is not subject to them without further
investigation." Google responded to these charges by stating that
"The FCC's open Internet principles apply only to the behavior of broadband carriers – not the creators of Web-based software applications."
Google claims that AT&T is attempting to blur the distinction between Google
Voice and traditional phone service but maintains that web applications like
Google Voice and Skype shouldn't be treated like traditional phone service.
Google distinguishes Google Voice from traditional phone carriers by explaining
that unlike traditional carriers which charge users for their services, Google
Voice is a free, web-based software application similar to e-mail rather than a
telecom service designed to "supplement and enhance existing phone lines,
not replace them" and should therefore be exempt from common carrier rules. The service is currently
available to a limited number of users on an invitation-only basis. Users are still required to have an existing
land or wireless line in order to use Google Voice and are still able to make
outbound calls on any other phone device.
Therefore, because Google Voice is a software application, not a
telephone company, Google believes that its service is not and should not be
subject to common carrier laws or the FCC's jurisdiction. Distinctions aside,
with nearly 1.5 million users, the increasingly popular service is viewed by
some as running a rival service to traditional phone companies. The heart of the FCC's inquiry is whether
Google Voice is a telecom service or an online software application and whether
this distinction really matters. How
different is a call traveling directly over carrier lines from one that goes
through software applications? As of
now, the difference appears to be the ability to block less than 100 calls, an
option not available to AT&T and other carriers. Whether the FCC agrees
with Google's characterization of its service and its interpretation of the
current open Internet principles may have a dramatic impact on both the telecom
and internet marketplaces. And the FCC's
newly proposed rules on network neutrality may also play a prominent role in
this debate. We will continue to monitor
the proceedings and keep you posted.

Over the last 15 years, Alan Weiss has created the most comprehensive and dramatic mentoring community in the world. The program has over 1,000 "graduates," and scores of "post-graduates" (those who have signed up for an additional term). A conservative estimate is that mentor program graduates have generated more than $700 million dollars in revenue for themselves and billions of dollars for their clients.
Alan has mentored and trained me for more than 10 years, more than quadrupling the yearly revenue for Henman Performance Group. I am one of fewer than two dozen people in the world certified in Alan Weiss's Mentor Mastery Program and approved to mentor at this level. I am also one of twenty-six consultants chosen from more than 1000 eligible participants world wide to be inducted into the Million Dollar Hall of Fame.
How The Mentoring Program Works
For people who want to start a consulting business or to jump start an existing one, I offer "total immersion," a program that consists of two days with me, at my office, to learn how I handle clients, prospects, office management, invoicing, interruptions, writing, etc. Spouses and significant others are welcome to attend as much of the discussions as they like.
I customize all mentoring programs to meet your unique needs. I start by looking at your current situation, expectations, and fundamental value propositions. Then, together we'll establish specific mentoring goals.
The frequency and style of how we work is totally up to you. After the first day of immersion, you may choose to call me on a regular basis, correspond via email, or have me serve as an advisor when you need my help.
Some individuals require a more highly-structured relationship with me, however. For these people, the mentoring program provides for externally-enforced discipline, in that you are accountable for specific completion activities on certain dates. The areas we may deal with include contacting prospects, creating publicity materials, creating a book proposal, writing articles, writing a book, contacting speakers' bureaus, creating a web site, following-up on leads, establishing networking events, creating a brand, creating products, etc.
While working with you personally, I will also provide entry into Alan's global mentor community, where the following will be available to you:
- Access to Alan's Forums, an online discussion 24/7, which is an international destination for professionals and entrepreneurs discussing everything from marketing to politics, fees, and life balance.
- Download text, audio, and video resources
- Monthly newsletters that outline best practices in consulting
- The opportunity to join mastermind groups
- Discounts on Alan's programs
- Access to teleconferences that are limited to those in the program
With this program you'll have the ability to work with me in a customized, personalized relationship while gaining access to a vibrant global community that will contribute rapidly and substantially to your personal and professional growth.

By 2020, Mexico will become the fourth largest producer of German luxury cars next to Germany, China and the United States, according to estimates compiled for Bloomberg by IHS Automotive consultant Guido Vildozo. That means that Mexico is expected to surpass Belgium, Spain and Brazil as top producers for German carmakers.
In fact, Mexico is not only becoming a production hotbed for luxury carmakers, but also for mass-market brands as well. Since 2012, German luxury carmakers BMW, Audi and Mercedes-Benz have decided to produce cars in the country.
Just this year, BMW Group has elected to build plant in Mexico. IHS Automotive Managing Director Michael Robinet remarked that Mexico has become the "crossroads of automotive trade for the western hemisphere," adding that the country has proven it can build "a vehicle of any stripe."
But pioneering the shift to Mexico were luxury carmakers while they volume counterparts are following suit. For instance, South Korean carmaker Kia Motors Corp. disclosed in August an investment of over $1 billion in Mexico, while Toyota Motor Corp. announced that it is reviewing plans to expand its manufacturing operations in the country.
Not all were good news for Mexico though, as it has been recently tagged as the source of some of Takata Corp.'s faulty air bags linked at least five deaths. Despite that, investments coming from the global auto industry keep on pouring into Mexico.
Armando Soto, president of Kaso & Asociados, remarked that German luxury carmakers made their decision to produce in Mexico thanks to increasing factory quality and a hike in engineers, as well as a growing domestic parts industry.
Bernhard Eich, the BMW director for the new San Luis Potosi site, remarked that building cars in Mexico "was quite an easy decision," noting that the carmaker is confident of finding skilled workforce and has a huge supply network in the country.
The site will start production in 2019 while Audi will start operations in 2016. Daimler, meanwhile, will build Mercedes and Infiniti compact cars at its site starting 2017.

The administration and the legislature did this despite the pleas from hundreds of citizens, teacher unions and professional organizations, in fact they passed these bills with little or no public debate. Education reformers usually ignore local, state and federal policy in their quest to privatize public education.
If it Quacks it's A Duck draft
Architects and promoters of the state's inequitable poor performing school system ask for a commitment for equity, transparency and academic excellence from Orleans Parish School Board candidates.
Charles Hatfield of Research on Reforms annual analysis of 2011-2012 LEAP scores.
Charter School Shame
It is clear that the education reforms in New Orleans has failed academically and been a wonderful cash cow for charter operators management companies, but what has gone relatively under the radar are the daily abuse to children in many charter schools. Below are examples of tactics used in some of New Orleans most popular charter schools that are counterproductive to learning and more importantly can have long time damage to children's self esteem and confidence. It also raises the question of what is the motive of such inhuman practices on children?

Original article about New Orleans Charter Posting Shame Signs
Reasons for Judgment June 20 2012
New Orleans Judge Rules that Public School Employees Were Illegally Fired!!!!!
Attached is a copy of the Reasons for Judgement in the firing New Orleans Public School teachers post Hurricane Katrina issued by Civil Court Judge Ethel Julien on June 20, 2012. The info in this Judgement not only tells a terrible story where public school employees jobs were not only illegally fired but also how calculating state and local education officials were in destroying public schools in New Orleans. The behavior of state officials were unethical and clearly out of order. More then a year before Hurricane Katrina then state superintendent Cecil Picard began a campaign to control the operating funds for New Orleans Public Schools. The findings in this Reasons for Judgement are horrific and validates that the education reform movement was resource driven ($$$) and had nothing to do with improving student achievement.
One of the fears of privatizing public education is enrollment practices of charter schools which deny student admission based on their race and class. The lack of a true accountability system for the large number of charter schools in New Orleans creates an environment where discriminatory enrollment practices can flourish.
Oprah- backed Charter School Denying Disabled Collides with Law
Bloomberg Newsweek reports on a charter school in New Orleans supported by Oprah Winfrey that does not serve special needs children.
Louisiana skipped key standardized testing analysis in 2009
Journalist Mikhail Zinshteyn of American Independent magazine discusses his recent article, Louisiana skipped key standardized testing analysis in 2009-2010, cites budget woes. The article focuses on how the Louisiana State Department of Education did not conduct an erasure analysis of the state's standardized test scores for the 2009-2010 academic year due to budget cuts.
Response to John White % of Failing Schools ROR June 2011
Each year the Louisiana State Department of Education does a annual announcement
of unprecedented test score gains in the schools created by the educational
forms post Hurricane Katrina. Their message is picked up by the media and often
used in validating the taking of schools in New Orleans and converting the
schools to charters. As usual, external groups analysis tell a much different
story with their schools performing poorly nationally and compared to schools
outside New Orleans. This year their claims have been focused on the large decrease in the number of
failing schools compared to schools pre Katrina. As usual, a proper analysis has revealed the actual results of the performance of the public schools in New Orleans. Read the Research on Reforms report on the unfound success touted by state education officials.
Pr. Rel. — D.W. — All that glitters is not gold
Read a press release issued by the Coalition for Louisiana Public Education that disputes the academic progress on this year's LEAP scores as touted by the Louisiana State Department of Education.
This is a commentary and challenge to The Times‐Picayune's editorial on May 13, 2011 entitled "Education reformer Paul Pastorek moves on: An editorial." The editorial glorified the achievements of theRecovery School District (RSD), glowingly reporting unprecedented progress in turning around failing schools. The editorial stated that there were significantly fewer failing schools now than prior to Katrina. While the TP praised Mr. Pastorek, it went on to disparage the Coalition for Louisiana Public Education as "some obstructionists… looking to taking advantage of the moment" with respect to educational reform.
Our Gated Public Schools edit 4
This article, Our Gated Public Schools, appeared in The New Orleans Tribune's May edition. It describes how the charter schools in New Orleans successfully lobbied the state education board to allow them to continue to cherry-pick the best students for their schools rather than admit neighborhood students. This action insures that students in Recovery School District schools will continue to ride buses to and from school for more than 3 hours daily.
Hatfield RSD Propaganda 2011
Charles Hatfield weighs in on the state education officials "unfound" claims of tremendous academic progress of Recovery School District schools (charter and traditional).
Dr. Raynard Sanders tell us about the saga of the Thurgood Marshall Middle School students who were kicked out of their building on the first day of school In the spring of 2005, Thurgood Marshal Middle School was the highest academically performing middle school in New Orleans. In the spring of 2007 Recovery School District officials announced that the school would re-open in the fall in its newly renovated building, student registration began shortly there afterwards. On the first day of school, students and parents were met by officials from the Recovery School District who told them that the Marshall school was being moved and that students would be bused to a school building in the lower 9th ward. Parents were never given any explanation only that two charter schools were would be in their building.
Noted Educational Researcher Leigh Dingerson essay, Unlovely; How a Market Based Education Experiment is Failing New Orleans Children, touches several issues that define public education post Hurricane Katrina. She explains the fundamental problems with having a market driven educational system, the article also gives a great descriptive time line of events that happened to public education in New Orleans right after Hurricane Katrina.
In November 2005 the state legislature passed ACT 35 essentially taking over more than 107 public schools in New Orleans. In taking these schools state officials changed the standard for academically unacceptable schools for just public schools in New Orleans, thus allowing the existing policy of a school performance score (SPS) of below 60 for the rest of the schools in the state. With ACT 35 schools in New Orleans not having a 87.4 were declared academically unacceptable, this file shows all the schools that had a SPS over 60 in New Orleans. While some of these schools re-opened as charters many of them never re-opened, if any of these schools would have been in other parish in the state they would not have been declared a failure. The teachers, staff and principals of these successful schools were eventually fired.
Educational Researcher Dr. Barbara Ferguson discovers serious problems with the reporting of students LEAP scores by the Recovery School District; 1500 hundred student's test scores missing from one school year to the next school year.

Education Researcher Charles Hatfield tells us about the poor academic performance of the Recovery School District for the 2008-2009 school term.
7th_grade_cohort_overview LDOE
7th_grade_grad_rate_analyzed LDOE
In this memo from the Louisiana State Department of Education's Strategic Research and Analysis Department, state officials admit to lying about minority student progress on the LEAP test in Louisiana. They also admit that from 2002-2008 the graduation rates for Black students decline and that the "graduation rate Black male is absolutely dismal".
Dr. Raynard Sanders tells us how the Recovery School District spins student data on high school graduation rates to tout success that didn't happen.

Comparisons are odious
Essentially all suffering is the result of...
* Comparing what we have (or don't have) today with what we had yesterday.
* Comparing what we fear we might have (or not have) tomorrow) with what we have today.
* Comparing what we have (or don't have) with what others have.
If I own two bicycles while my neighbor owns one, I feel rich, but if I own two bicycles while my neighbor owns a car, I feel that the world has treated me unfairly and I suffer. If I could only crawl yesterday, and can walk today, I am grateful, but if I could run yesterday, and can only walk today, I become angry and resentful.
The way to happiness is what I call Zero-Based Gratitude. Each day be happy and grateful for what you have, independent of yesterday and of other people. Think of Zero-Based Gratitude like zero-based budgeting, the process in which governments and businesses attempt to disregard the spending patterns they have become addicted to, and establish a realistic budget from a base-line of zero spending.

thank you for your daily inspirational quotes. it helps me find myself at a time that my life has changed and seemed to turn upside down. i realized the impact of knowing what true love is when it is rather too late to make it come true. i am trying to let go and let god. but it seems i cannot go against what my heart cries for. it is there like a clinging vine. i believe that whatever happens is for a reason or a purpose. i wish i could handle this situation well but it will be god who have the final words. i keep on reading your column to make me comfortable and hope to find peace in my heart.ReplyDelete

Sign me up for anything with pumpkin baked into it, especially if there's maple syrup involved. My kids were going crazy over these Flaky Pumpkin Biscuits. I've seen similar recipes, but I decided to use my favorite buttermilk biscuit recipe and tweak it a little.
Flaky Pumpkin Biscuits with Maple Cinnamon Butter
A little less milk and a good dose of pumpkin puree, a bit of spice from my favorites–cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves. Yum!
These biscuits are flaky. Look at those layers!
Could there be anything better than a hot biscuit slathered with butter? Yes. If it's this maple cinnamon butter. It's outrageously good. I don't know if I'll go back to honey butter after this.
These would be fantastic on your Thanksgiving table, or made fresh to have with leftovers the next day. I'm dreaming about pumpkin biscuits with the maple butter and a smattering of homemade cranberry sauce…mmm.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Flaky Pumpkin Biscuits
For pumpkin biscuits:
2 cups flour
4 Tbsp. brown sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp. ground cloves
8 Tbsp. butter, cold and cut into cubes
1/2 cup plus 2 Tbsp. canned pumpkin puree
1/3 cup buttermilk
For maple cinnamon butter:
1/2 cup (2 stick) butter
2 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
For biscuits:
Preheat oven to 40o degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or a piece of parchment paper.
Whisk the dry ingredients together. Cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients until crumbly. Mix the pumpkin puree and buttermilk together. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the pumpkin and buttermilk into the well. Use a fork to quickly mix the dough together to form a ball. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead a few times until the dough comes together. Roll out on a floured surface to 1/2″ thickness. Use a 2 1/2 to 3″ round cookie cutter to cut out the biscuits. Transfer the biscuits to the baking sheet and re-roll the scraps.
Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until golden brown.
For cinnamon maple butter:
Beat butter until light and fluffy. Add the maple syrup a little at a time, beating well. Add the cinnamon and vanilla extract and beat for another minute or so. Transfer to a small bowl, cover and chill until ready to use, or serve immediately.
Yields 18 2 1/2-inch biscuits, less if you use a larger cutter and a heaping 1/2 cup maple cinnamon butter.

Smart Soccer Commercial | AthloTech
AthloTech, Smart Soccer System
AthloTech, a startup company, has developed technology to help soccer players improve their game using measurable data. The product is currently in development and the company needed a video that would explain the product to potential investors and consumers alike.
During pre-production, the studio researched athletic promotional videos and found that a combination of real speed and slow motion, set with a high contrast background, would create the ideal style allowing the AthloTech product to shine. The style for this shoot was inspired by the movie, "300".
The studio worked closely with AthloTech to draft a script and develop a storyboard. During this time, the studio was also waiting for the product to be manufactured. This extra time in pre-production time allowed the animation team to develop ideas around incorporating 3-D animation into the video. This later benefited the director and film crew once production was in full swing, because they had insight into what types of shots to capture in order to create a smooth transition into 3-D.
The studio screened talent and worked with AthloTech to select voice-over and music that would relate to a global audience. It was important to find athletes who fit the product user profiles, so AthloTech invited local soccer players with varied ages, backgrounds and athletic skills. The video production took place at night in order to achieve the style outlined in pre-production, which created a high contrast setting between the dark sky, stadium lights and the product itself. The studio filmed on Red Epic at 4K, which allowed for 240 frames per second and the ability to create slow-motion effects.

Support & Maintenence Overview
Geodrill operates a modern, state of the art workshop and 20-acre property to 20-acre property supply base near Kumasi, Ghana, to provide rig repair and equipment/supply storage. The workshop manufactures up to 260 different consumables to 320, including drill rods, which
helps to minimize delivery delays and shipping costs associated to sourcing parts from external vendors. Approximately 10% of our parts to 15% of our parts are manufactured in-house, with the potential for increasing that.
Essentially all of Geodrill's rig fleet is deployed to projects within a 12-hour radius of the operational base. This limits costs relating to mobilization/demobilization, and also allows for a more responsive service offering than competitors can normally provide. Having a centralized operational base also allows us to minimize downtime, as well as increase trucking, shipping and supply response times.

Below is a 5 minute SPX chart. Note the small triangle that has formed. This triangle looks like it was entered from the top, BUT, when you consider what happened overnight it was entered from the bottom. So, this one could break either way. it's good for about 25 SPX points either way. The DOW looks stronger, as does the NDX & RUT.
I'm still being careful here, but think that it's bullish if we break up and get back inside that bottom bear wedge boundary (light blue).
You're not cheating, are you?

Both paid and free components can be published to the marketplace for FREE. We only charge a commission when a sale of a paid component is made.
Can I sell/list my components on other places?
You can publish your components wherever you like on the web. The purpose of the WindowsPhoneGeek marketplace is not to restrict developers but rather to help them in distributing, promoting and rewarding their effort and hard work!

Higher education institutions are all about capital campaigns, whether those campaigns are public or private. They tend to be about buildings, equipment, scholarships, posts... things. Discrete, specific, wonderful, world-changing things.
Your average HE major gifts fundraiser is usually focused on trying to raise money for those things. That means finding enough people who are interested in those things, and turning them into donors.
The planning of that usually takes the form of a gift table. Gift tables tend to be constructing around the concept of a gift pyramid (aiming for a few big fat gifts, a middling number of high value gifts and a large number of small gifts). They look a little like this...
You need four prospects for every gift because in major gifts there is a 1:4 conversion rate from
prospect to donor. Call me Doubting Thomas, but I've never come across much evidence to back this up.

First, I must say that I feel horrible that it has taken me this long to post about this fantastic product I received from Misikko.com! Between being sick, getting my mouth operated on, and having computer issues, I was getting beyond frustrated...but at least my hair looked great! When Misikko.com contacted me and asked me to review a new curling wand I was beyond excited. My hair is impossible to curl, but with this tool I can actually have curls that last all day! I wanted to try my hand at a tutorial video...so with out further wait I present you the Corioliss Ceremic Curling Wand!
Misikko.com is a great company and they offer so many other products like: Curling Irons, the Best Flat Irons, Paul Mitchell Flat Irons, Hair Dryers, and Hair Care products. When you receive your items from Misikko.com I guarantee the package you will receive will be worth it. I truly feel like a princess every time they send me a package.
So what do you think of my new curly hair? I am seriously in love with this tool. I thought I could never have curly hair that lasted all day, and this curling wand proved my hair and I wrong. I don't know how I lived with out it! I love just playing around with it to see what type of curls I can get. If you want curly hair and have had no luck in the past...invest in one of these ceramic curling wands! You won't be disappointed!
Disclaimer: This is a review based on my opinion only. Your opinion may differ. I was not compensated in any way for this post and received the above mentioned item for my honest opinion. All opinions are my own.
Thank you Misikko!
