Stroller Running
Why you should love stroller running!
I just love stroller running.
With little ones at home I spend a lot of time running with my BOB Revolution (and the Duallie). The BOB stroller is basically the mommy equivalent of an SUV for stroller running. If you are a runner Mom your BOB will travel everywhere with you. The BOB gives you the freedom to get out of the house, get a great workout and have the added bonus of a little stress relief and time out in the fresh air soaking up as much Vitamin D as possible. I love stroller running!
The Bob stroller is great for monster uphill workouts work your legs. Then you can cruise along the downhills. This stroller is perfect for stroller running on dirt roads and we have plenty of those where I run in New Hampshire and Vermont.
The warm fuzzy in our Bob stroller keeps my kiddos warm. The weather shield keeps them dry and out of the wind (which is especially key because every mom knows that even if the temps are freezing and the snow and sleet is falling, sometimes you just have to get the kids out of the house!). The sun shield (oh how I wish it was still summer!) is also perfect for those summer days when the black flies and mosquitos are swarming (My kids remain bug bite free even when I return home looking like I might have a bad case of the chicken pocks due to all of the bites). One of the greatest things about this stroller are the heavy-duty, off-road tires, the shocks and the swivel wheel.
My BOBs have been with me for many miles and I will be sad the day when my kids get too old to join me for a stroller run. So if you are a mom, put the BOB stroller on your list for Santa. Don't miss out on the awesome miles bobbin' it with your little snuggle bugs!

An Uncensored Review Of Mark Hoverson – Another Online Guru Selling More Crap?
Article by Jaime Soriano
If you stumbled upon this article, chances are you're probably doing some research on Mark Hoverson. Maybe you're thinking about purchasing one of his products. Maybe you're thinking about joining his program. Before you shell out any money to him, go ahead and read this entire review so you're more equipped to make an educated decision about him.
First Things First, Who Is Mark Hoverson Anyway?
Over the last couple of years, Mark has made a name for himself in the online direct sales niche. He's been a top producer with Global Resorts Network and more recently has become a company owner. He's created several of his own products and just a few months ago he launched his 'Irresistable Info Marketing Blueprint'. I'm not sure how much money he actually makes but I'm pretty sure it's A LOT. Just with his 'Irresistible Info Marketing Blueprint', he made well over six figures in a few days time. Now, you're probably thinking Mark was a natural and he was always successful. But nothing can be further from the truth.
When Mark got started in the industry, he was dead broke. He was living in a trailer and barely scraping by. He had to buy an old and used computer to get his business going and spent a lot of time calling friends and family. Needless to say, he was completely struggling.
It was not until he met trainer Jeffrey Combs that things started to turn around. Combs took some time to teach him the concepts of Attraction Marketing and generating leads through online marketing systems. In short order, Mark started to get results. Through his marketing efforts he started to get people who wanted more information to call him, instead of him chasing people to pitch them.
Over the last few years, Mark has reached incredible heights in the online direct sales arena. He's broken multiple records and has made over 0,000 in one month. He's launched some very popular products and is a sought out success trainer. Recently, he spoke at the 'No Excuses Summit 2' and is scheduled to be one of the featured speakers at My Lead System Pro's 'Live The Dream 2' event. He's become so good that he now is a part-owner of the Direct Sales company he was a top producer in. Not a lot of people can say that.
Overall, What Is My Opinion Of Mark Hoverson?
In summary, I think Mark is probably one of the best marketers out right now. He has an incredible amount of knowledge on many subjects including leadership, marketing, direct response marketing, attraction marketing and sales psychology. If you can purchase any of his products, I suggest you do. You'll be glad you did.

Inside: If you're considering doing Whole 30, this will give you an honest look – Part 1 is an overview, the good, and the bad. Part 2 is life after Whole 30 as well as helpful tips if you decide to go for it!
(This post may contain affiliate links.)
Life Post-Whole 30
In Part 1, I covered an overview of Whole 30, the good and the bad of taking on this huge life-and-eating change! You can read Part 1 here!
So what happens after you finish Whole 30? Well, I can tell you! 🙂
I am 6 months out from doing Whole 30. So, what has life been like since then?
Well, after I finished, I did reintroduce food groups in one at a time, as they suggest. For most of the non-compliant groups I added back in, I felt negative effects right away. They weren't overwhelming symptoms, but I definitely felt bloated, crampy, and my sleep was not as sound by any means. I didn't really see a need to reintroduce those things back into my diet, so I haven't.
Does that mean I never eat cheese or bread or rice or pasta?
Well, in general, I don't. Those products aren't in my house and I don't make them. The Whole 30 meals were so flavorful that I just stuck with them. I honestly didn't miss any of that. There are so many good alternatives that I've gotten used to and actually really like now!
I've since simplified the food prep, which gets easier once you get into a rhythm and have your go-to recipes. I basically eat the same 1 or 2 things for breakfast, the same 1 or 2 things for lunch, and then I make different dinners. That satisfies the need for variety while not making things too complicated.
I'm not a Whole 30 purist when it comes to sugar in certain items. I buy organic ketchup that has sugar, organic salad dressing that has sugar, BBQ sauce with sugar. For me, those items were not my sugardown fall and I never craved ketchup because of the sugar. So, I do allow those in my diet.
If I'm eating out (which isn't often….Hello! Toddlers!), I try to be as compliant as I can but I don't worry about how things are prepared, which oil they are using, etc. Or, I may decide that I just want to splurge that night, and I will.
Cheats and Treats Post-Whole 30
I do allow myself a cheat night. For me, cooking takes a lot of work and mental energy, so by Friday night, I don't want to cook. We usually will order take-out, and that is splurge (and our home date-night). Then, we usually get a box of strawberry shortcake ice creams (There's just a few in the box and I won't bring a 1/2 gallon into the house). On Saturday, I might eat my leftovers for another meal and have another ice cream. I would say that out of the 21 meals in a week, about 3 are non-compliant. I'll also give myself a little wiggle room for special occasions – parties, girls get-togethers…but those aren't too often in my baby-dominated world.
On a daily basis, I would say that I'm a mix of Whole 30/Paleo. On Whole 30, you aren't allowed to make 'treats' even if they are compliant ingredients (affectionately called SWYPO in Whole 30 – 'sex with your pants on' – enjoyable perhaps, but not the real thing); they are trying to break you of those snacky associations. Now, I make myself Paleo desserts and cookies if I feel like a little treat on my non-cheat days.
But those are choices I make. I found it easier not to get off course during the week if I know my treat is coming on Friday night. And to be totally honest, my body doesn't feel great when I cheat, but it's a once-in-a-while trade-off I'm willing to accept.
So since then, I'm still tracking with losing weight – another 5 lbs off. I'm still feeling great and sleeping great. I'm still loving the food.
Life after Whole 30? It really did change my life. And I haven't looked back.

So, if you are truly thinking about Whole 30 (and I hope you are), here are my suggestions:
1| Do it with a friend (or join a FB group)
My friends didn't join in until after my first week. Things got so much more fun after that. We were constantly texting each other about new recipes we were trying or questions or if we just needed a little encouragement. Phenomenal support. If no one in your world is into Whole 30, there are several Whole 30 Facebook support groups, like this one. and the Whole 30 site also recommends groups.
2| Read the book first
You can get a lot of the information from the website (which is what I did. I glanced through the book, gave it back to my husband's coworker and then looked online). I was so enthusiastic to start that I jumped in a teeny bit unprepared. Thankfully, I didn't do any real damage in my ignorance, but I do wish I had read The Whole 30 Book (Amazon affiliate link) first and been more prepared. The book gives a ton of great tips and ideas so you can be set up for success. If you don't want to commit to the book, get a copy from the library. I ended up doing that, and just recently, I finally bought a copy of the book because it's so good, and it really is my lifestyle now.
3| Do it when you have time in your schedule to do the preparations and can commit to it
If you know you have a lot of social engagements or are going on vacation, it's probably not the time to start. Try to find a period of 30 days that will be relatively temptation-free. Not perfect, but one that seems doable. Also, if you can, start at a time when you can dedicate some hours to meal prep. There's a bit of a learning curve involved, and if you are super-busy with work or other activities, this can be a little tough. Don't forget – you might feel pretty bad the first week, so consider that in your time.
4| Plan your menu and meals ahead of time
This is another reason I suggest you read the book first. Really take your time to prepare for this 30 day journey. Because I started a little hastily, I was planning meals on the fly, and that was stressful. Plan your meals, get your shopping list, prep your meals ahead of time, as much as is realistically possible. Throwing a meal together might work if you are really talented in the kitchen, but if you're like me, you are going to need a bit of preparation. (PS – Pinterest = Lifesaver!!! Use those recipes! There is pretty much a Whole 30 alternative for everything you like.)
5| Keep your meals simple, especially in the beginning.
This is a huge lifestyle change, so as much as possible, try to keep things simple in the beginning. There are so many great recipes out there, but trying to make 3 smash-hit recipes every day is a bit demanding and a bit more stressful. Like I mentioned, I kept breakfast and lunch pretty simple (and maybe a little bit boring). I tried new recipes for dinner, and they truly were delicious enough to keep me inspired to keep going.
6| Get your kitchen gadgets ahead of time.
I went a bit wrong on this one. I wasn't as prepared as I should have been, and it left me in a lurch at time. Whole 30 has a whole list of kitchen gadgets that they recommend and some that aren't necessary but would be nice. For me, I had 3 that were non-negotiables. First, an instant-read meat thermometer. You will be cooking so many kinds of meats, and recipe cooking times really vary. It was super-helpful for me to just go by internal meat temperatures. Second, a food processor. This Hamilton Beach one is what I have and I love it. You will be making a lot of condiments and other things from scratch, rather than buying them. A food processor is a must. Third, a spiralizer. You can use a handheld one like this or one of the fancier ones like this. This was huge! Since pasta is out, making noodles from vegetables was a new staple. You need one of these!
Just Do It!
Whole 30 has its challenges but every single one of them are worth it. From a person who was a chronic dieter and never a lifestyle-healthy-eater, this is definitely the way to go.
I wish there was such a thing as being an affiliate for Whole 30 because I've told so many people about it, they've tried it and loved it and are telling other people about it. If this was a pyramid scheme, I'd be sitting on the top. (But there's not such a thing. I've looked.) I get zero compensation for sharing about Whole 30. (Well, if you order The Whole 30 book from Amazon, I get a small commission as an Amazon affiliate, so there's that). But I get nothing from the Whole 30 people for pushing this. I just totally love it and totally believe in it.
If you've been considering Whole 30, you really have nothing to lose and so, so much to gain.
Have I convinced you yet? You can do anything for 30 days. Just do it!
Any other Whole 30-ers out there? I'd love to hear about your experiences!

Eating Right For Your Blood Type
A blood type is a classification of blood based on the presence or absence of inherited antigenic substances. It is the key to genetic heritage – the story line of your life. Do you know what blood type you are? Did you know it is believed that certain blood types need a certain diet?
There's a lot of knowledge to conquer in the realm of health and fitness. You might have figured out your metabolism and caloric intake but do you understand yourself as a biochemical individual? Renowned naturopathic physician Peter D'Adamo's concept of the blood type diet puts a new spin on the way we approach a healthy lifestyle.Don't let fancy words like biochemical and naturopathic convince you this diet is science fiction nonsense. D'Adamo, a former physician of the year and accomplished professor, uses research from glycobiology, biochemistry, and several other physicians in his diet book Eat Right 4 Your Type to support the theory.
Due to the blood type diet's recency there hasn't been many studies conducted to support D'Adamo's theory. But for every skeptic there is an enthusiastic fan impressed by D'Adamo's enthusiasm and more than ten years of work put into the book. It also is a New York Times best seller with more than 7 million copies in print, so he must be doing something right.
Foods for Each Type
Type O
Safe to Eat: If you're a meat lover and type O, then you're pretty much set for life. This diet focuses on protein sources like red meat, seafood, and poultry like chicken and turkey. Some vegetables that are acceptable for this type are kelp, spinach, kale and broccoli.
Stay Away From: Type Os should gravitate away from wheat and grains in their diet. Legumes like peas, beans, peanuts, and lentils should be avoided. They also might have digestive issues with dairy and egg products.
Type A
Safe to Eat: The type A's effective digestive enzymes make it the ideal choice type for vegetables and grains. Focus on healthy whole grain sources of bread and pasta and avoid simple grains. Fruits like apples, nectarines, berries, avocados, and figs are good choices. For vegetables your spectrum is hardly limited but you should look for plant protein from sources like soy and nuts.
Stay Away From: A lot of A types don't like to hear that their meat protein consumption needs to be strictly limited. Most types of bird, fish, beef, and pork don't sit well with the limited meat digesting enzymes. Dairy products and kidney beans should also be avoided.
Type B
Safe to Eat: The B type is considered a balanced omnivore with the easiest dietary maintenance. For meats you should focus on red meat, turkey, and fish. Grains, green vegetables, and fruits are friendly additions with a few exceptions listed below.
Stay Away From: Corn, lentils, and seeds of any sort should be avoided. For meat you should avoid chicken. It's also advised that you steer clear of buckwheat and peanuts if you fall under this type.
Type AB
Safe to Eat: Borrowing from two other types, an AB type should focus primarily on vegetables, fish, and turkey. Seafood, tofu, beans, and legumes are great protein sources. Fruits like watermelon, figs, apples, and bananas are acceptable.
Stay Away From: Red meat should be avoided when possible because ABs borrow type A's level of stomach acid. Like type Bs you should steer clear of buckwheat and corn. ABs are also vulnerable to excessive levels of alcohol and caffeine.

How to save money on emergency preparedness by buying some of your supplies at the Dollar Store!
Something like emergency preparedness seems so overwhelming and expensive to get started.
You have to buy all of these things, figure out where you are going to keep them, and then rotate them out if you don't actually have an emergency.
I used to think this way too. I thought you had to spend thousands of dollars to get your family prepared for emergencies.
And while there are some expensive things that would be nice to have in an emergency, many of the things you need to store you can find at your local dollar store.
Dollar store? Are you kidding me? Nope. Let me take you on a tour of my local Dollar Tree:
12 Types of Emergency Items You Can Find at the Dollar Store:
You can find many food items at the dollar store. Canned food, prepackaged food, snacks, candy and other things to put into your 72 hour kit. It won't be healthy or organic, but it will do when you are hungry or stressed.
Bottles of water in all different sizes can be found at the dollar store for your 72 hour kit and water storage. You can also find refillable water bottles for your family.
Kitchen Items
You can find paper plates, cutlery, can openers, foil and other kitchen supplies for your 72 hour kit and food storage.
Lighting Alternatives
There are matches, lighters, candles, flash lights, glow sticks and other light sources for your 72 hour kit and extended emergency storage.
Cleaning Supplies
You will find trash bags, cleaning solutions, soaps, wet wipes and other essentials there.
First Aid
There was a whole wall full of first aid supplies there, including bandages, ointments, medicines and pain relievers. To find out what you need in a first aid kit and how to put it together, check out this post—> 5 Essential Steps to Building a Family First Aid Kit.
Gardening Supplies
During the spring, they have garden tools, seeds, containers and other things you could use to start a survival garden.
Kids Entertainment
You will find toys, books and puzzles to keep kids entertained during an emergency situation.
Although they aren't the highest quality, they did have several different sizes of batteries for cheap.
They have gardening gloves, latex or nitrile gloves and work gloves for cheap.
Personal Hygiene
Almost everything you could think of for personal hygiene, they have it: shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, soap, feminine products, etc.
Survival Tools
They have duct tape, zip ties, hammer, screw driver, rope and many other things you might need in an emergency.
This is a great list! How encouraging to know you can get many of your survival needs at the dollar store!
And since I know many of you live in a small town like I do, this is more available because almost everyone has a Dollar Tree or Family Dollar close by.
Of course, you get what you pay for. So if you can spend more on these items, they will be better quality and last longer.
But I don't want money to be a hinderance for you to get prepared. So if you need to save money, buying things at the dollar store is a great alternative.
What kinds of emergency supplies do you buy at the dollar store? Let us know in the comments below. And if this post was helpful, please share! Thanks!

Damaged tires and rims can be a major headache as far as cost and inconvenience is concerned. If you hit a pothole, or even a curb, the first thing you should always do is have your tire dealer inspect your wheels. Rim damage can lead to the worst kind of surprise, because the damage caused is not always apparent right away.
A damaged bead could lead to gradual air loss -- something that could leave you stranded in the middle of nowhere -- especially if you've gone off road. Slight warping of a rim can cause vibration that affects tire balance and causes premature tire wear.
In addition, if you hit a pothole hard enough, your wheel alignment will need to be inspected again. Ignoring that warning will surely cost you money in the long run, as misalignment is one of the fastest pathways to damaged tires.
Read more about the importance of Wheel Alignment here .
To protect your wheels and tires it is important to foster a culture of good driving habits. Tires wear out much quicker if subjected to high speeds and hard cornering. Is getting to your destination maybe only a few seconds earlier really worth the added expense of damaged tires?
Things like rapid starts, hard stops, roads in bad condition and off road use, are all hard on your vehicle's tires. Road surfaces with potholes or rocks damage tires and can encourage misalignment, so drive carefully if you find yourself in situations that are similar to those above.
If one of your tires has suffered an impact, have it removed and inspected for damage. An impact-damaged tire may appear fine at first, but can fail later. Have the rim inspected also.
Rims can be very expensive these days and there have been many recent developments in wheel repairs. It was not all that long ago damaged wheels were simply discarded at the owners expense, but there are many repair centers specializing in repairing damaged rims now.
Other good practices to employ and enjoy a safe and long life from your tires include;
TIRE ROTATION: Monitor and correct irregular tire wear by rotating your tires. Consult with your car owner's manual or tire dealer for an appropriate rotation plan. Read more about Rotation.
BALANCING: One of the first things to suffer from poor balancing is your tires and a short lifespan from them is guaranteed if you neglect the balance of your wheels. Read more on balancing here .
TIRE WEAR: Learn to recognize the early signs of problems. Read more on tire wear here .If you have any questions about tires consult your dealer or ask us here for a second opinion. A good dealer is your number one source of information on tires. Dealers have access to service manuals, wall charts and publications on tire loading, inflation, tire and wheel repair and replacement.
Your dealer will provide replacement tires, balancing services and repair damaged tires. Let your dealer inspect your tires regularly and manage any problems that arise.
Special Tip
|Whoops! Most of the time you drive on the right side of the law but just once you made a mistake and now face a heavy fine. Help's on the way -- it's called: Traffic Ticket Secrets. Might be just what you need to save the day!

|Head Coach
|(229) 931-7006
|1st Season
|Previous College:
|Northeastern State
Head men's soccer coach Eric Crawford comes to Georgia Southwestern from Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, Okla., where he served for three seasons as an assistant coach for the RiverHawks. He is the third head coach in GSW men's soccer history.
Prior to his time on the coaching staff at Northeastern State, Crawford was a four-year letterwinner for the RiverHawks. A native of Ontario, Canada, Crawford is the most decorated student-athlete in Northeastern State history. He is the first student-athlete in school history to be a finalist for the Ken B. Jones Award, presented to the female and male student-athletes of the year for the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association. Overall, Crawford is a two-time NSCAA All-American, a seven-time All-Region First Team performer and a three-time All-MIAA First Team honoree. He played at NSU in 2011 when the school was an independent and therefore was unable to be named All-MIAA all four years. He also sat out the 2014 season due to a medical redshirt.
Crawford played in 70 career matches and made 68 starts for NSU. He also captained a back line unit that recorded the three best defensive seasons in school history. He helped lead the RiverHawks to two appearances in the NCAA Championship, including one trip to the quarterfinals, and he also led the team to two MIAA Championships and three runner-up finishes during his career.
He also had a distinguished amateur career with the Toronto Lynx of the PDL and the Oakville Blue Devils of League 1 Ontario. Crawford was named an all-star in 2016, and won the league 1 championship, and the inter-provincial cup in 2015.
His career academic accomplishments included being named to the CoSIDA Academic All-District 7 First Team in both 2013 and 2015, and he was also selected to the 2015 NSCAA Men's Division I and Division II Scholar All-America Second Team. He was a four-time member of the MIAA Academic Honor Roll and a two-time MIAA Scholar-Athlete. He was named to NSU's Dean's List 10 times and was once selected to the President's Honor Roll.
Crawford graduated with a degree in Biology, and will be completing his masters degree in Health and Kinesiology.

After taking the World Championships Team and Individual TT titles, let us take a closer look at one of the most successful teams in professional cycling; Ettixx-Quickstep.
Although they cannot boast a large number of grand tour victories, like Team Sky or Astana, what Ettix-Quickstep do very well is win races. In the last five years, they have been the most victorious team on the WorldTour, with 50+ wins each year. What makes this team special and the reason I love them is their specific focus on first place. Whilst other teams race negatively by putting their resources into achieving grand tour top tens for the purpose of WorldTour points; Quickstep aim to see as many of their riders with their hands in the air come the finish line.
They have achieved this remarkable winning streak through numerous stages and overall wins in week long stage races, targeting one day races with their multiple options of Tom Boonen, Zdenek Stybar, Niki Terpstra, and hiring world class sprinters such as Marcel Kittel, plus upcoming star Fernando Gaviria.
The Etixx-Quickstep team formally began in 2003, but was basically a reincarnation of Mapei-Quickstep, with added staff and riders from Domo-Farm Frites. Mapei had the iconic 1-2-3 in the 1996 Paris-Roubaix where all three riders finished together in the famous velodrome.
The new Quickstep team however started to achieve considerable success when Bettini won the sacred Milan San-Remo in 2003, which he then followed up with a victory in the Athens Olympics RR the next year.
2005 was Tom Boonen's year of domination where he won the E3, Flanders, Roubaix and The Worlds. 2005 also saw Bettini taking the Giro di Lombardia, which he then defended in 2006. Bettini gave the team their next two World titles in '06 and '07. Boonen followed up his '05 success with victories in the 2008, 2009 and the 2012 Roubaix. He also celebrated wins at the Flanders wins in 2006 and 2012.
Tony Martin has taken 4 ITT titles with Quickstep and the team itself has won 3 TTT titles. Michal Kwiatkowski gifted them their last World RR title in 2014. As you can see, these results are pretty special and make quite a long and successful list.
Key Riders:
Tom Boonen – What is there to say about the King of Belgium that hasn't already been said? He is possibly the best cobblestone rider to ever grace the sport, ridiculous to think he almost won this year's Roubaix – 11 years on from his 2005 victory.
Marcel Kittel – Arguably the best sprinter in the peloton in recent years (don't tell Cav that). When entering a sprint in prime position he is very difficult to come around, his ability to speed up further when someone comes up beside him is incredible.
Niki Terpstra – Although some people may not agree with my thinking that Terpstra is one of Etixx's key riders, he was actually the last one to win a monument a monument??? (2014 Roubaix). He is the engine room of the team, very powerful in a sprint train or TTT unit. When he is on form he obtains big results, just look at his recent overall victory in the Eneco Tour!
Yves Lampaert – Not a key rider as such but in my opinion this man is on the cusp of some huge results; he will definitely win Roubaix in his lifetime. He has a big TT engine and a decent sprint which is a perfect makeup for a classics champion.

Predefined Value Stock Screen Performances
I created these predefined value stock screens in order to keep a constant flow of ideas coming in and to somewhat automate my investment process. The best way to find truly original and off the wall ideas would be to go through every company starting from the A's in the SEC database, but for most people, this is unrealistic.
Through these screens, based off my own research and study, I hope to produce ideas that are not producible with just a free standard screener.
The screens are essentially the same as last year, except some parameters have been tweaked and adjusted to account for more realistic trading. A lot of the OTC stocks have been filtered out and I would like to do the same with the Chinese stocks , but that is a hard ask at the moment.
The most obvious point jumping out at me is the negative results of the insider buys and share buyback screen. Something I'll have to look at and see why.
On the other hand, the CROIC and NNWC increasing stock screener is continuing last year's outstanding performance where CROIC returned 44.9% and NNWC increasing returned 43.8%.
You can read more about the details of each screen from last year's performance discussion.
User Interface Changes to Screeners
In case you have not checked out the new site design, the screener section has some changes.
The screens are now being displayed as an embedded spreadsheet so that you can easily copy and paste into your own spreadsheet.

Republicans and Trump Deserve What They GetLeave a comment
July 21, 2018 by wimvincken
Buttock-clenching spasm, morally posturing, corrupted and garish self-love serving extremists of assorted morons, misfits, and malcontents, pink-haired and nose-ringed twats, stirred up by unknowns. Be it the extremists out there on the street, be it those who are writing in the mainstream media, those broadcasting propaganda, the corrupt judges, the security agencies, the FBI, CIA, the corrupt and morally posturing politicians in the Senate, the States and the local city governments, they are doing all they can to destroy President Trump, the Trump administration, the Republicans and America. They go so far to threaten the sitting American President with death, political or physical. And they continue doing that, because nobody stops them.
The Next President of the United States … Welcome Sir or MadameLeave a comment
June 4, 2016 by wimvincken
If we listen to Trump,you might get worried, because he doesn't sound like a normal Presidential candidate. If you listen to Hillery Clinton, she does exactly sound like one. During the current, ongoing elections, the trash-talk went up and even became popular, and scandal after scandal were announced and broadcasted about both candidates, and the funny thing is … they are still in the race. Both of them are or masochists, fools, idealists, or all of them combined. Who is foolish enough to become the President of the United States?

In the middle of the current meltdown of the Middle East, we see a strange thing happening, Israel is in the middle of it, attracting friends and (former) enemies. Whatever happened in 2015, the year 2016 will bring interesting perspective to the Middle East and the world. Let's see what the international community is doing against the chaos and the ticking time bomb, which is called the Middle East!
Why President Obama acts like he's in denial?2
December 6, 2015 by wimvincken
The population of the United States must make a decision now. Or it continues with the direction promoted by President Obama – and ultimately and surely – terror will struck the US in a terrible way or the US must force the President to do his job and make proper attempts to protect the US. Never would I have dreamed that an American President allows the US to be attacked constantly without any form of retaliation. And I never have thought that the American people would allow him to do so. Never was there an American President, who acts so unprofessionally, causing so much mayhem, destruction and death all over the world.
What's a Terrorist?Leave a comment
December 1, 2015 by wimvincken
There is so much confusion going on about the terms politicians, terrorists, extremists, criminals, Islam, Christianity, "white-terrorists" and list list goes on for a long time. This article is about the definition of many actual aspects of what's going on in the media and the categorization of those definitions … by the reader.
The Stories behind the News1

It's really sad what's going on in the world and if you read a newspaper, Internet or watch on TV, you might be wondering what's going on!? We going here on a small journey throughout the world and see where it will lead us, not? But I'm not only showing you what's in the newspapers, but beyond and behind it as well, till all the gory details.
Remove the Roots of the Current Evil, Part I1
November 27, 2015 by wimvincken
Each day there are multiple terror attacks, causing many to die and are maimed for life. Streams of refugees are headed to Europe from Africa and the Middle East. Climate changes all over the world are getting more dire and causes hardship. Incompetent governments, especially those in Europe and the US, allowing terrorism, refugees and clime changes to happen without care of the threats to their citizens. This is a first part of the 2 articles about the global problems and what to do about it.
Can you Trust Muslims in your Country?2
November 24, 2015 by wimvincken
Muslims often form closed knitted communities throughout Europe and the US, where there is not much true integration within the societies. With the increased radicalization of Islam, the flood of Muslim refugees towards Europe and the world, the alarming growing daily terror from Islamic extremists, mindless and destructive rage in the form of highly publicized horrifying and barbaric activities of ISIS, the genocides, the very obvious and visible incompetence of passive governments, and finally, the very vocal support of a large part of Muslims for Islamic extremism in their host countries (Europe and US) and the ISIS itself, Muslims don't make themselves popular at all. They are seen as a growing threat for everyone.
The Rise and Fall of Islamic Extremism4
November 22, 2015 by wimvincken
Islamic extremism is a social movement, which started in the 1960s and cycled through four phases until it is as it is now. People like President Obama stubbornly believes that the violence and extremism is born as (only) a product from western imperialism in the Islamic world centuries ago. His whole Islamic policy is build on that believe. Or worse, his Middle East- and security-policy is based on that and that's extremely dangerous, because it leads to isolationism and that create power vacuums, resulting in out-of-control conflicts, surge in terror, death, destruction, violence and genocides … exactly what's happening today.
Terror Trends and Social HostilitiesLeave a comment
November 22, 2015 by wimvincken
What ever the heap is what the media may claim, they didn't do their homework correctly and didn't look at statistics. In order to build a correct as possible opinion about the problem of terror, everyone needs to have a good idea what's exactly going on in the world. Reading and studying media is not the answer, because their sources are suspect and not correct, accurate or they are simply opinions and uses data incorrect or they interpret data according their preference. The only way to do that is to read the statistics, because those numbers give a certain objective detail. How you like to interpret that data is up for every individual. You are free to link or relate all the data here with UFOs if you like.

An European Plan to deal with Terror and ISISLeave a comment
November 20, 2015 by wimvincken
What the democratic elected leaders suppose to do is doing their duty as leader for their country. And obviously they don't. They allow – with their incompetence – their citizens to be attacked, vilified, slaughtered and terrorized within their countries, cities, villages and houses. While the world is changing dramatically, the democratic elected leaders are still trying to govern according old realities (even go so far to be in denial), which doesn't apply anymore on the current reality. This article tells what's the problem and what to do about it.
Incompetence of our Democratic Elected Leaders against TerrorLeave a comment
November 20, 2015 by wimvincken
There is something seriously wrong with the world at the moment. Currently, terror attacks are performed on us in Europe, Africa, Middle East, Far East and even in the US for some time now and the democratic elected leaders are not stopping it. And they know, like everyone else in the world, who is doing it and where they are.
Why are our Democratically Voted Leaders still in Office?1
November 19, 2015 by wimvincken
ISIS and Assad is not only harming their own people (who cares, not?), also the international community! This year there are more then 800 people killed by them (ISIS). ISIS attacked 6 western and 8 Middle Eastern countries and it looks like they don't stop. And they announced that they are coming for you! Our democratic elected leaders and governments let them continue. In Paris they killed more then 100 citizens. And what is France going to do to stop that? Empty words and some bombs? Is the ISIS stopped or going to be stopped? No, I don't think so. Those people were killed because WE allow our governments to do so. Funny thing is, that our democratic elected governments are being paid with our tax money and allow them to be incompetent.
Violent attacks on 'infidels' increases the support for ISIS!Leave a comment
November 18, 2015 by wimvincken
The brutal killings in Paris come on top of the downing of a Russian airliner in Sinai, the bombing of a Hezbollah stronghold in Beirut and an attack against Kurds in Ankara. About 500 people have been killed in the past few weeks, and many more injured. Islamic State (ISIS) has claimed the first three, and is suspected of the fourth. Since September 2014, ISIS has performed at least 26 attacks, resulting in more then 875 killed, 14 different countries, 8 countries are Middle Eastern (57%) and 6 western countries (43%). And those numbers are not complete; the number of people who have perished because of terror outside the borders of Syria and Iraq is much higher.
Conflicts between the Arab and the Western worldsLeave a comment
August 28, 2015 by wimvincken
In many countries and regions, where the majority of the population is Arab, they hear in their weekly sermon on Friday from Islamic religious authorities that the western world is bad, they are evil, they are similar as Satan and they need to be killed. The same happens on Arab TV, where a constant stream of hate and distrust are coming from the religious and government authorities. The Arab media is reporting events in the world with a certain bias, and even blatant lies and untruth and they do this already for years.
How to become a monster like ISIS in 5 easy steps3
August 27, 2015 by wimvincken
Are you able to behead a person? I mean cut his head of with a knife, sharp or not? Are you able to rape a woman and maybe bury her, but she is not dead yet. Or maybe you are in the mood to cut a child in half? Or maybe you like cutting someones fingers off? What do you say, castrate the man? Or cut out his heart and hold it in your hand for all to see? Do all of those things and you feel great doing it?
Caliphate, the Islamic State (ISIS), has everything to do with Islam!Leave a comment
August 26, 2015 by wimvincken
Is Islam tolerant, does it promote love, equality, racial equality? No, it doesn't. It's a religion, which promotes hate, brutal murder, revenge, slavery, killing of non-believers, suppression of women and minorities, accepted and promoted pedophilia, mechanism for war and oppression, doesn't support education, promotes lying and cheating, and who knows what more. It's a religion, – when truly followed like a real Muslim, according the Koran – which forces a citizen of a country only to live by the Islamic law and to disobey regular (National and local) law.
This article I describe what Islam actually is and why people (like Obama) claim that it is a religion supports religious tolerance and racial equality. One thing I can already tell, the truth is in the way how he words those statements. He forgets to mention that this only applies for fellow Muslims!

More About South America
When you picture South America, what do you see? The towering peaks of Patagonia, the lush jungles of the Amazon, the islands of curious animals in the Galapagos? South America group tours are diverse in this extraordinary continent, with awe-inspiring destinations in every country that will leave you breathless.
Bordered by the Pacific Ocean to the west, the Atlantic to the east, and stretching from the Caribbean in the north to the Drake Passage that separates South America from Antarctica to the South, there are plenty of places to visit in between. The people of this continent have been arriving for nearly 15,000 years, starting with those who made their way south after crossing the Bering land bridge during the ice age.
Archaeological finds of food consumption have been dated as far back as 11,000 years ago, with civilizations starting to thrive due to the abundance of food found in South America. From the use of manioc in the Amazon, the yams of the Andes, and fishing on the coasts, many different cultures began to emerge on this southern continent.
The rise of the Incas is perhaps one of South America tours most iconic cultures. Beyond Machu Picchu, the far reach of this empire can be seen across Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, Chile, in northwest Argentina and even in parts of Colombia. Known as the Quechua, this powerful empire is famed for more than just their impressive stone temples but also their creation of roads and finely woven textiles.
Not quite as large in their ruling, but equally impressive in their knowledge of herbal medicines, the Amazon tribes were often isolated within the world's largest rainforest. From the Mapuches in Chile to the Kalinas in the Guineas, it is hard to imagine a region with more diverse cultures in such a short span of history.
Unfortunately for many indigenous tribes, the arrival of Europeans brought along many deaths and enslavement as Spain and Portugal began their colonial encroachment. Starting in the 15th century, the claims of land belonging to a European crown came fast with most of South America under occupancy of the Spanish by the mid 16th century.
In its wake, beyond the atrocities to the local native populations, stunning new cities were formed. From Cusco to Quito, Cartagena to Santiago, Buenos Aires to Lima, and Rio de Janeiro to Bogota, it is hard to not be impressed by the beautiful and often colourful historic cities. Away from the cities, South America tours offer a chance to experience nature on a immense scale.
Explore the glacial expanses in Chile and Argentina's Patagonia, walk amongst a dense canopy of jungle in the Guineas and Amazon, take in the vast altiplano landscapes found high within the Andes, enjoy a cup of coffee in the Colombian highlands, or rest on the idyllic beaches of Brazil.
No matter which option, it is always postcard perfect. Whether discovering South America for the first time, or another corner which was previously unseen, this is a continent that provides even the most intrepid of travellers the chance to become amazed.

Singapore Airlines Suites are one of my favorite product in the sky. They debuted on the first flight of Singapore Airlines A380s ten years ago in 2007 to Sydney. And now, SQ has decided they want to revamp the Suites product as they bring in new A380s into their fleet. Remember, Singapore Airlines was the launch customer of the A380, so a lot has changed since they started flying the whale jets.
The rumors have been floating around for a very long while now, however Singapore Airlines has not gotten further than confirming a re-launch of the product was on the cards so far. However, it seems finally the dust is settled and the cat is out of the bag.
The New Singapore Airlines Suites Class
First and foremost, Singapore Airlines will launch the new SQ Suites and Business Class product on November 2 in an international media launch, as per AusBT. This launch would also include the launch of the new premium economy and economy class products of the carrier, resulting in a complete redesign of all 4 cabins in the SQ A380.
A seatmap which was out there on the SQ website temporarily before being pulled again indeed gives us a few clues, although unofficially.
Firstly, the airline will continue to offer closed door suites going forward, however, there will now be only 6 suites instead of the existing 12 on the various A380s flying around. This almost leaves the door open to bigger suites in the cabin, given that more innovation has been done since SQ's launch and middle-east carrier Etihad now offers a whole Apartment and Residence in the air.
Second, this indicates the Suites Class is moving to the Upper Deck, and will be followed by 76 Business Class seats behind it, making it one whole deck of premium cabin seats. There should be a new seat there as well in Business Class, which could be the new standard for long-haul travel on Singapore Airlines.
SQ has been always at the forefront of innovation in terms of having a nice premium product, even in Economy class, and I'm sure this quiet behind the scenes work will also come up with something new and exciting for the carrier. We are surely looking forward to more details and finding out about the upcoming product.
What do you expect out of the new SQ Suites & other cabins? I'm excited to hear
(H.T. AusBT)

I got a lathe a few months ago and have been practicing some pens. I haven't posted any here before, but I thought these came out pretty cool looking and maybe not a lot of people have tried it. Friends and family really love them.
I just cut a bunch of strips of the BB plywood the stacked them up and glued them together to create a 5" panel. I cut some at 45 degrees and the others straight to create some blanks.
Because all the layers of glue, plus end grain all around it was really hard cutting it smooth.. (beginner here) so i cheated and left it thick, using sandpaper to bring it down to size. This method used after blowing out a couple of blanks.
I did a CA glue finish, wet sanding up to 12000.
Not sure how the pictures will come through but at some angles it almost has a florescence look to the wood.

New application round for Ontario Renovates program
Published on 10 May 2017
New application round for Ontario Renovates program begins on Monday, May 15th.
A new application round is about to begin for Ontario Renovates, a popular home improvement program that assists low and moderate income families and seniors in Cornwall and the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry.
Through Ontario Renovates, eligible homeowners can receive funding for urgent home repairs as well as modifications to make their homes more accessible. Since the program launched in 2012, approximately 520 homeowners in Cornwall and SDG have received assistance.
"The Ontario Renovates program has had a tremendous impact in our community," said Stacey Ferguson, Manager of Social and Housing Services. "I would encourage all eligible homeowners to consider applying for assistance."
The Ontario Renovates program has two different components:
- An Urgent Home Repair component where eligible homeowners can receive a maximum forgivable loan of $16,000 which is earned over a 10-year period. Projects which may qualify under this component include upgrades to heating systems, minor foundation repairs, roofs and electrical systems.
- An Accessibility Modification component where eligible homeowners can receive a maximum grant of $5,000. Projects which may qualify under this component include ramps and handrails.
In order to be eligible, participating homeowners must be within the income limits per household ($41,000 to $61,000 depending on the household size) and the house assessment value must be below $193,291. In addition, the property must be owned and be the sole and principal residence of the applicant, and property taxes, home insurance and mortgage payments must all be up-to-date. The property must be located within the City of Cornwall or the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry. Funding is not available for work that is already started.
Application forms for the program will be available as of Monday, May 15th.
Application forms can be downloaded from the City website here beginning May 15, 2017. Copies can also be obtained from the City of Cornwall Social Housing Division Office at 340 Pitt Street (3rd Floor) or by calling (613) 930-2787 ext. 2344.

"Right now we don't want to force her back," Alexandrov said. "Even in March at the Russian championships I'm not expecting her to be in 100 percent shape, probably 75 to 80 percent. Today she has all her skills but they are not all together [ready for competition]. On vault she's doing soft landings and she also hasn't shown her new skills on bars. It's going to be a work in progress — the main goal is the Olympics."
Mustafina competed four events at the Voronin Cup on Dec. 16, eight months after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) on vault at the European championships in Berlin. The 17-year-old star looked physically fit in her comeback, showing a triple twist on floor exercise, a Yurchenko full on vault, and most of her difficulty on uneven bars and balance beam.
"I was pleasantly surprised and happy about her first meet," Alexandrov said. "She didn't do her full routines and full difficulty, but she tried what she was ready for at the time and for me it was enough to see."
Mustafina had intended to compete in November at the DTB Cup in Stuttgart, but wasn't quite ready, he said. Nicknamed "Iron Aliya" after her steely performance at the 2010 Worlds, Mustafina needed to gather her composure as she took her first steps back.
"She was nervous, even though her goal was just to compete, to see how she does after eight months off and how well she could handle the pressure and how her knee would feel," he said. "I came up up to her and said, 'Well, it seems like you're not very nervous at all and I'm surprised!' and she said, 'Look at my hands, Alexander!' and her hands were shaking. 'Maybe I'm not showing that I'm nervous, but inside I have butterflies!'"
Alexandrov said he hopes Mustafina will compete a few events in May at the European championships in Brussels, where the Russian women will try to defend their team title. However, fans should not expect her to be in prime shape, he cautioned.
"We'll see," said Alexandrov, Mustafina's personal coach since 2008. "I don't think she'll do 100 percent difficulty. She doesn't need to be 100 percent at that time; she will need to be 100 percent at the Olympics."
Russia entered first-year seniors Anastasia Grishina and Anastasia Sidorova for the upcoming pre-Olympic test event, Jan. 10-18 in London. Both gymnasts are expected to challenge for spots on Russia's Olympic team this summer.
"Sidorova's wrist is bothering her so I'm not sure yet about her status for this competition," Alexandrov told IG. "But Grishina is a great young talent coming up. She's a very interesting gymnast, very beautiful. She's light, she's flexible, she can do good difficulty. It just so happens she's missed a lot of competition lately. But I have high hopes for Grishina and I'm looking forward to seeing how she performs on the podium."

The blue-throated macaw, also known as the Caninde macaw or Wagler's macaw, is a macaw endemic to a small area of north-central Bolivia, known as Los Llanos de Moxos, this species is cultural heritage of Bolivia, Recent population and range estimates suggests that about 350–400 individuals remain in the wild. The main causes of their demise is capture for the pet trade. It is currently considered critically endangered and the parrot is protected by trading prohibitions.
What is the blue-throated macaw?
The blue-throated macaw is about 85 cm (33 in) long including the length of its tail feathers and has a wingspan of approximately three feet or 0.9 m. It weighs about 900 g (32 oz) to 1,100 g (39 oz). There is little easily observable sexual dimorphism; however, males tend to be a little bigger than females with approximate masses of 750 g and 950 g respectively. Upperparts are turquoise-blue, slightly duller on crown and brighter on rump.
The blue-throated macaw lives in the Gran Chaco of the Beni Department of Bolivia, nesting in "Islas" (islands) of palm trees that dot the level plains. It is not a forest dwelling bird. This species is one of the rarest in the world, There are two areas inhabited by two sub-populations of Ara glaucogularis: one is to the northwest of Trinidad (the capital city of Beni), and the other is to the south of Trinidad. This complex landscape consists of grasslands, marshes, forest islands, and corridors of forests along waterways. They occur most often between the elevations of 200 and 300 m.
Blue-throated macaws are most frequently found in monogamous pairs, but small groups of 7–9 do occur and one large roosting group of 70 is known. It is not known if these macaws will pair with another mate if their original mate dies. Their main mode of locomotion is flying, but they are also able to climb trees, maneuver along branches and walk on the ground. These birds are active during the day and usually stay in one general area. Blue-throated macaws communicate mostly by sound. When they suspect danger, they emit a very loud alarming call and promptly fly off. Blue-throated macaws are known to communicate with each other with quiet caws as well.
Conservation status and programs
The blue-throated macaw has a very small population and is on the verge of extinction in the wild. It is listed on the IUCN Red List as critically endangered. It is also listed in Appendix I by CITES. Trapping is illegal as blue-throated macaws have been protected by the national legislation of Bolivia and the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) since 1986. According to locals the wild population of the blue-throated macaw in the 1980s was thought to number 500-1000 individuals. Although trapping ceased later in the 1990s, the wild population remains low, with previous estimates of between 110–130 individuals, that more recently have been increased to about 350–400 after surveys by Armonia Association and the Loro Parque Fundacion found additional birds.

What is it?
Cyber crime, cyber theft, and cyber intrusions are real and growing threats to the Army and America, but U.S. Army Cyber Command is also real and growing. Professional cyber operators work 24/7 to stay ahead of malicious state and non-state actors, criminals, hackers and insider threats that seek to disable or compromise Army networks, systems and critical infrastructure. Every member of the Total Army plays an important role in supporting the deliberate efforts of full-time cyber defense forces. Just as physical security begins with individuals, safeguarding Army networks and the information on them requires individual vigilance.
What has the Army done?
The Army continually educates and trains the force on protective measures, but cybersecurity cannot be looked at as a once-a-year mandatory training requirement or a "bumper sticker" slogan. The threat is real and requires daily awareness. While most Army members are familiar with basic tactics to prevent compromises, not everyone follows those best practices. Tactics such as using complex passwords, changing passwords frequently, not selecting active hyperlinks in unsigned e-mails, disabling location access on social networks, and protecting operational and personal security are a few of the ways users can protect themselves and Army networks. Other measures to prevent identity theft and keep networks secure include being aware of the privacy policies of sites and organizations that seek personal information; keeping browser software current with the latest security updates and knowing how to use them; getting independent verification of questionable requests for personal information; getting to know the security features of sites that request personal data and reviewing and updating them regularly; and signing up for continuous credit monitoring.
What continued efforts does the Army have planned for the future?
ARCYBER is on the front line of the Army's continual operations to reduce the number of access points and vulnerabilities and to build a network that is increasingly more defensible. Efforts to assess and manage risks to Army enterprise and personal information demand flexible, adaptive, continually updated safeguards. Maintaining that edge makes comprehensive, thorough and continuous training for Soldiers, civilian employees, and Family members essential to protecting Army and personal assets.
Why is this important to the Army?
The Army faces increasingly pervasive and sophisticated cyber threats. Malicious activity in cyberspace constantly threatens Army networks, information and people. Every user has an essential role in keeping Army and personal networks and information safe. The only secure way ahead is through nonstop vigilance; continually updated tools, training, tactics and techniques; and a Total Army culture that embraces cybersecurity as a top priority.

I have felt so honored the last four years to be chief of staff, because every day I'm just taken by the sacrifice and the commitment of our Soldiers and their Families, and how much they've given, and how much they continue to give, and how much they care about each other and care about the mission. That's what makes this job worthwhile.

Snoozies® went well! Looking to reorder, especially the large sizes!" – Berni at City Drug, Fort Collins, Colo.
Pricing Tips
For 10 months out of the year, the retail price should never fall below $12.99 each. The $12.99 price is a successful and proven price point that offers a profit margin of more than 66 percent!
In January and July, conduct a "buy one, get one free" sale. This will make room for new styles and a fresh, full-looking display. Remember, the buy one, get one free sale is not the same as a half-price sale. Half-price sales will only liquidate one piece at a time. A buy one, get one free sale moves two pieces at a time. The goal is to make room for new styles.
Note: Your cost for two pairs after freight is approximately $8.25. Selling two pairs at $12.99 still allows you a profit margin over 36 percent.
Caution: Only run this sale shortly after Christmas to the end of January and for the entire month of July.
Additional notes:
- Spring styles are now available. Fill your rack once with spring product.
- "2 for 1" sale in July.
- Peak selling time is late summer through Christmas Day.
- Women's styles far outpace men's in sales.
Keep your snoozies!® rack looking full year-round; avoid empty hooks. Maintaining a rack merchandised by size is a rewarding challenge – no one likes to hunt for his or her size! When it comes to reordering, be aware of size distribution – do not make a quick reorder without checking notes on what the popular size is in your area.
In November and December, snoozies!® will be your best impulse stocking stuffer item. During the month of December, give two pairs to any staff member who is willing to wear them in the store – one to wear in the store and one to take home. Remember your cost.
Place Order
Purchase your snoozies®! products through the FrontendMarketplace.com website! You can place your online order here.

Groupon has opened its first own logistics centre in Cincinnati, Ohio. The American company sees this as a move away from offering only daily deals, towards being a distributor in its own right.
Expanding its services
The company's Groupon Goods and Groupon Reserve gain prominence, with the latter (created in 2011) offering discounts based on your restaurant reservations. Clients do not need to buy a voucher beforehand, as was the habit with Groupon's other deals.
Groupon Goods on the other hand focuses on selling regular products, instead of relying on deals with certain retailers. Groupon Getaways focuses on travels, while GrouponLive targets concert and other event tickets.
Groupon Freebies
The newest addition to the line-up is Groupon Freebies, where customers can get coupons and free samples for particular products. The coupons are only valid for online purchases and have to be (mainly) spent with large national chains in the United States.
"Groupon has shifted its model, it is now basically an online shopping mall," says Peter Krasilovsky, an analyst with BIA/Kelsey. "The daily deals are still part of that shopping model, but so are online coupons as well as other product types and tools."

Divorce is one of the toughest things a person can go through. Not only does it tax you legally and financially, it takes an emotional toll. Fortunately, one of the good things about divorce is that it offers you a fresh start and a chance to begin a new relationship, one that's even healthier and more fulfilling than your marriage was. However, ensuring a healthy relationship after a divorce means following a few guidelines.
Work It Out First
Divorce, and all the marital troubles that led up to it, can leave a person hurt, angry, and untrusting of marriage. These feelings are a normal part of the grieving process. However, if you don't work through these feelings before getting involved again, you can't give your all to your new partner and you risk ruining the relationship. Work through the pain of the divorce with friends, family, or a therapist. Learn from any mistakes you made and resolve to start fresh.
Don't Rush It
In the hopes of finding happiness again or getting their mind off the pain of divorce, many people seek a relationship too soon after divorcing. This is known as rebounding. The problem with rebound relationships is that they're based on filling a void, rather than a true desire for a two-way relationship, making it very difficult for the relationship to succeed. Instead of rushing into something new, take time for yourself, date casually for a while, and then start a relationship when you feel fulfilled in other areas of your life.
Unpack Your "Baggage"
One of the biggest challenges of getting involved with someone who's divorced is dealing with the "baggage" they come with. An intrusive ex-spouse, unruly kids, or ugly custody battles can wreak havoc on a new relationship. As such, it's important to establish good boundaries with your ex, find your stride as a single parent, and work through any legal issues. Doing so will reduce conflicts in your relationship.
Be Present
Anyone who gets involved with a divorced person knows they have a "past" – i.e. that they have an ex-spouse they once loved. Most people are fine with this, as long as the past stays in the past. To maintain a healthy relationship, avoid talking about your ex, your divorce, or your former marriage. It's okay to share important information such as what led to the marriage ending, but avoid too much detail or comparing your new partner to your old one. A new partner wants to feel special, not like he or she is standing in the shadow of your past.

David writes a Psalm of praise, giving thanks for the righteous virtues and works of God. He praises God for staying near to us who call on Him, and giving us salvation.Application:I am reminded that God is near to me and He hears my call. His salvation is a gift. He gives me salvation because I need it. This gift is not because I am good but because He is good. Prayer:Lord God, thank You for Your faithfulness to me and Your promises of salvation.

A new poll released by the New York Times Friday is sure to rock the liberal media's world: "Two-thirds of New York City residents want a planned Muslim community center and mosque to be relocated to a less controversial site farther away from ground zero in Lower Manhattan."
Another finding likely to particularly upset the shills at MSNBC:
One-fifth of New Yorkers acknowledged animosity toward Muslims. Thirty-three percent said that compared with other American citizens, Muslims were more sympathetic to terrorists. And nearly 60 percent said people they know had negative feelings toward Muslims because of 9/11.
Here are more of the surprising details:
Over all, 50 percent of those surveyed oppose building the project two blocks north of the World Trade Center site, even though a majority believe that the developers have the right to do so. Thirty-five percent favor it. [...]
The poll, however, reveals a more complicated portrait of the opposition in New York: 67 percent said that while Muslims had a right to construct the center near ground zero, they should find a different site.
Most strikingly, 38 percent of those who expressed support for the plan to build it in Lower Manhattan said later in a follow-up question that they would prefer it be moved farther away, suggesting that even those who defend the plan question the wisdom of the location.
And this is the point the mosque's backers in the media - in particular the shills at MSNBC such as Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, and Ed Schultz - have missed: this issue isn't about Constitutionality or rights.
Most people outside the liberal press are intelligent enough to understand that developers have the right to build this mosque if its zoning is approved. They just question the wisdom of doing so.
If an overwhelming majority of New Yorkers can understand the difference between having the right to do something and whether or not it would be appropriate, why can't media members?
