Intro Arpejando (Dedilhado)
(Verso Arpejando - a partir de F#m toca normal)
I'm so tired of being here.
Suppressed by all of my childish fears.
And if you have to leave.
I wish that you would just leave.
Your presence still lingers here.
And it won't leave me alone.
These wounds won't seem to heal.
This pain is just too real.
There's just too much that time cannot erase.
When you cried i'd wipe away all of your tears.
When you'd scream i'd fight away all of your fears.
And i've held your hand through all of these years.
F#m D E A C#m A9 C#m (Arpejando)
But you still have all of me
You used to captivate me.
By your resonating light.
But now i'm bound by the life you left behind.
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams.
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me.
But you still have all of me.
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone.
But though you're still with me.
I've been alone all along.

We recently received a special request for a canvas fine art print on ArtBoja.com:
I'm a Norwegian woman who's spent the day dreaming about all the great pictures on your website. So many fantastic pictures! I've found nothing like it in Norway. I particularly fell for one and was incredibly disappointed when I realized that you only ship pictures inside the United States. So, of course, my question is if it may be possible to ship a picture to Norway if I pay for shipping myself? I would really really appreciate that!The picture I like so much is "Bad Homburg Spa Park" by Barbara Mierau-Klein.Best regards, Mette F.
ArtBoja Abroad
So what could we do to get this canvas print to our client in Norway? First, Mike contacted ArtBoja contributor Barbara Mierau-Klein.
From Mike –
I reached out to the artist… and guess what? She was planning a trip to Norway in 3 weeks, so I got her connected with Mette. Barbara ordered the print from ArtisanHD, had it shipped to her house in the US, then took it with her and hand delivered her creation to her customer in Oslo.
Now that's service! What did the artist have to say about the experience?
Image successfully delivered! Everything worked out swimmingly. I met Mette at the airport hotel in Oslo, where I was overnighting before my flight up North to the Lofoten, and she took the picture home with her and is very happy with it.
Here are 2 photos, one of me with the image, and one of Mette and me with the box being transferred.
The Story Behind the Canvas Fine Art Print
What was the inspiration or story behind Bad Homburg Spa Park?
For the past five years I have been spending part of the year in Bad Homburg, a charming small town of 50,000 inhabitants just outside of Frankfurt. As an avid photographer, I started exploring the town with my camera and actually ended up publishing a photo book about it last year. With the many images I had in my files, I just started playing with some of the building images from the beautiful Spa Park, and gave them a sort of vintage look in tune with their character. And then things developed a momentum of their own!
As so often happens with digital art, and I ended up blending two buildings together in a collage with a lot of additional elements and some lighting effects. I have been thinking about playing with the many other building images, maybe of the town's castle and its White Tower, to create a matching image – a project for the future.
Barbara Goes to Norway
It's so great that you could hand deliver your work to Oslo! What brought you to Norway?
By lucky coincidence the client inquiry came just 2 weeks before I was setting off to Norway myself. I was on my way to a photo trip to the very North of Norway, to the Lofoten Islands to photograph landscapes of snow-covered mountains and fjords and hopefully some Northern Lights. The plan was to overnight in Oslo and fly out the next morning on the small plane taking me up North. Lucky coincidences continued and it turned out that Mette, my client, lives in Oslo! She was able to come out to the airport hotel for a handover of the image! Mette went on to hang the image in her dining room. And I went on North to experience some pretty epic Northern Light displays.
What was it like meeting someone who is so passionate about your work?
I was very happy that someone from as far away as Norway had shown an interest in my image. I felt sufficiently strong about it to overcome any potential transport hurdles. It was very rewarding to finally meet Mette, who it turns out is a charming young woman. She is very passionate about bringing art into her home that matches her sense of style and enhances her living space.
Now That's Service!
What a great story! We're so happy we could facilitate the delivery of this canvas fine art print. To see more of Barbara's work, visit her ArtBoja page. While you're there, feel free to explore the 8,000+ original works of art on ArtBoja.com! Barbara says:

Also included in the rate was a continental breakfast that was nice but the area around the buffet was rather crowded (a lot of business travelers).
Overall, it was a very pleasant stay in this hotel!

Brenau Academy students collected close to $100 thus far in the Pennies for Patients campaign. But that´s not small change. The program, which runs through the rest of this week, however, encourages Brenau faculty, staff and students on the Gainesville campus to drop off their small change (or large bills, if you prefer) at the donation jars located at the library, tea room, cafeteria, admissions, bookstore, gym, post office and the Academy. Those on other Brenau campuses or those who want to make non-cash donations can do so at http://ga.sy.llsevent.org/BrenauAcademy.
The donations go to aid victims of blood cancer, which kills one person in the United State every 10 minutes – about 148 people a day. So, empty out your pockets and change purse to help make a difference.

This year I actually got around to joining in with the RSPB Birdwatch. Out in the garden with a cup of tea and a notepad to record what birds are out there. I don't feed the birds in the garden, with two cats it seems a bit unfair to lure them in, but I do put food out on the extension roof, the birds can get at it but the cats can't get the birds and it doesn't encourage rats – a win-win all round. Weirdly it also means I can sit in the bath and watch the birds coming and going!
Anyway while I was out there I started going through what I am going to plant this year and wondering what wildlife I will have visiting me. We have the allotment for growing food so the garden is for playing in which means it doesn't have to be too ordered and I like the fact that in this small garden I can make a small wood pile for the stag beetles which I seem to have a few of every year. The little pond has newts and various snails, water beetles, fresh water shrimpy things and in the summer it throws up damsel flies and dragon flies. There are LOTS of slow worms which I love and the occasional hedgehog. I would like more and have built a hedgehog house which hasn't been used yet, maybe one winter they will more in. Sadly the last hedgehog we had was eaten by an invading badger.
We do get butterflies although I'm not very good at identifying them and bees and I look out especially for the honeysuckle hawk moths in late summer that visit the honeysuckle outside the back door.
So I'm looking forward to a wild summer in the garden and planting according which luckily means lots of flowers to attract the insects.
As I write this it is Hedgehog Day, hopefully that is an omen and I will get the hedgehogs visiting the garden this year.

In this short clip, the Brazilian journalist Gilberto de Abreu discusses the controversial cancellation of the New York presentation of the Hélio Oiticica retrospective organized in 1992 by the Projeto Hélio Oiticica (Rio de Janeiro) in collaboration with the Galerie Nationale du Jeu de Paume (Paris) and Rotterdam's Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art. Slated to open in October 1995 at the Guggenheim Museum's Soho branch, the institution had cancelled its participation by May of the previous year. In a phone interview with Globo, the Rio de Janeiro daily, the Guggenheim's public relations head, Catherine Dare, mentioned the impossibility of clearing dates on the institution's tight exhibition schedule as the reason for the cancellation. However, Luciano Figueiredo of the Projeto Hélio Oiticica criticized the New York institution's evasiveness in their official position because, in his opinion, the cancellation had more to do with its struggling finances. To that effect, he cited a document signed by Thomas Krens, the Guggenheim director, who confirmed it lacked the funds needed to mount the retrospective.
This document is part of The Adolpho Leirner Collection of Brazilian Constructive Art at The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.
Following the untimely death of Hélio Oiticica (1937-1980) at age 42, his family and friends established the Projeto Hélio Oiticica in Rio de Janeiro to care for, preserve, analyze, and disseminate his work. Even though Oiticica had been awarded a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Fellowship to assist research and artistic creation in 1970 and spent the following eight years in New York City, his work had been unfamiliar in Europe and North America until the 1990s. Between 1992 and 1997, the Projeto staged an ambitious retrospective that resulted from a collaborative effort by an international group of scholars led by Guy Brett, the British independent curator and organizer of Oiticica's "Whitechapel Experience" in 1969; Chris Dercon, director of Witte de With at the time and current director of Tate Modern; Catherine David of the National Gallery of the Jeu de Paume; Luciano Figueiredo and artist Lygia Clark, who directed the Projeto Oiticica along with Waly Salomão. The exhibition, which presented a complete survey of Oiticica's work, included reconstructions and the first public presentation of the controversial Cosmococa—Programa in Progress series (1973-74). The Cosmococas, which the artist coauthored in New York with Brazilian filmmaker and actor Neville D'Almeida, blended the languages of art and cinema. Never exhibited during Oiticica's lifetime, each of these "Block Experiments [Experiences] in Cosmococa"—as the artists also referred to them—incorporated slide projections of D'Almeida tracing over album art, book and magazine covers, or other surfaces with lines of cocaine; a soundtrack; texts; and a plan for public participation in a prearranged location. Underlying the Brazilian positions recorded in O Globo is a questioning of whether or not the radical nature of this series may have been an influencing factor in the Guggenheim's cancellation of the retrospective.
The exhibition opened at the Witte de With and then traveled to the Jeu de Paume, the Fundació Antoni Tàpies in Barcelona, the Centro de Arte Moderna da Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian in Lisbon, and the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. With the Guggenheim's relatively last-minute cancellation, the works were held in storage at the Walker Art Center from 1994 until 1996, when the pieces returned to Rio de Janeiro for a final showing at the Centro de Arte Hélio Oiticica.

Wall Street, the media, and the blogs are unanimous in their view that the management exodus at Yahoo! (YHOO) this week is a terrible thing and shows the the company is in shambles. The rats are leaving the sinking ship, as it were.
I'll take the opposite side of that argument because someone has to.
Jeff Weiner, Usama Fayyad, Qi Lu, Brad Garlinghouse, Vish Makhijani, Caterina Fake, Joshua Schachter, and Stewart Butterfield are all talented people who will be missed. I know quite a few of these people and I would love to have the opportunity to work with them in the future.
But the truth is Yahoo! needs some new blood in its executive ranks. That new blood can come from within the company or from outside the company.
Yahoo! probably needs more people to leave in the coming months, particularly senior people who have been around for a long time. And it needs to reach into its organization and tap people on their shoulders and say 'its your time to step up'. And it needs to go find some new leadership who can bring talent with them.
Yahoo has over 500 million worldwide unique visitors a month. It has massive reach. It has massive scale. There is no reason it cannot and will not be an important business going forward.
It needs to focus on monetization, rationalizing its products and services, and making money, lots of it
All of this is still very possible. But its clearly a turnaround of sorts and needs to be approached that way.
The best turnaround people I know start with a challenge to the team. "Are you ready to dig deep and work really hard for the next five years to get this thing working again? If yes, let's do it. If no, then you have to leave now." That's what is happening at Yahoo! and it can be a very good thing.

Pete Johnson's Havana VI is a blend that I have always struggled with. It has been described as being a softer version of the "Brown Label," and that the cigar is composed with less ligero in the blend. It was released in 2006, three years after the "Brown Label," and since its release I have come across guys who really love it and guys who don't care for it. I have never found a middle of the road with this cigar, but then again, I have found that with a lot of cigars. Well, with the release of the Havana VI, Pete released some limited version of the line that were title Verocu. These versions were considered to be Havana VIs on steroids, and till recently have not smoked one in a long time. Pete always does something cool with lines, whether it is making it stronger, changing the wrapper, etc., so when I got my Saints & Sinners kit, I decided to light up one of these Tatuaje Verocus inside.
Tatuaje Verocu
Size: 5" with a 50 ring gauge
Vitola: Robusto
Wrapper: Habano Ecuador
Binder: Nicaragua
Filler: Nicaragua
MSRP: (Saints & Sinners Kit 2014)
Cigars smoked for review: Two
Reviewed cigar under Cigar Federation rating system.
Appearance and Aroma: The Verocu sports a very dark wrapper and in terms of coloring, I would say it is around the Colorado-Maduro side of the spectrum. In some ways, this is as dark as some Connecticut Broadleaf offerings. It features a lovely triple cap and a wrapper that is smooth, with some oils and very faint gritty qualities. There are few veins present with the cigar and the wrapper is giving off an aroma of barnyard, manure, coffee and tobacco. The foot has some similar aromas, and I am getting some more rich earth, manure and funky chocolate notes. Overall, it has a nice aroma that is very My Father/Tatuaje, and it is an aroma I was expecting. In terms of appearance, I am giving the smoke an eight out of ten, and the aroma is a nine out of ten for me.
Smoking Characteristics and Flavor: The Verocu begins by showing nice Nicaraguan flavors and I am getting some spices, earth, tobacco and coffee. It is very rich and filling, and while it is not overpowering, it is really enjoyable and announcing its presence in a good way. As I move further into the cigar though I begin to get some tart notes and it has this sour ale quality with some fruity notes. It is an enjoyable blend and with that change in the flavor profile, the strength increase. At no point is this cigar smoking at a full-full level, but it is between medium-full and full. The cigar ends by showing some nice spicy and peppery notes as well, and it has a nice bit of twang which is enjoyable. The construction remains solid throughout the cigar as well and it is producing an even burn line with a dark charcoal ash on the end. Towards the end of the cigar I begin to get some flaky qualities with the ash but it is nothing major or presenting a problem or being annoying. In terms of construction, the cigar gets 13 out of 15 points and I would say that the flavors are getting 27 out of 30.
Overall Impression: The Verocu is an entertaining cigar and I find it to be much better than the original Havana VI blend. I don't think its as good as the Brown Label, or other blends by Pete, but that is my personal preference. If I wasn't crazy about the flavor profile before, what makes you think that making it stronger is going to make me love it? I think with the extra strength the Verocu delivers more than the Havana VI could ever deliver, and because of that I get some additional flavors from the higher priming tobacco. I know a lot of guys who love this blend, I see why, and if they are looking for a stronger Pete offering, then they found that with this cigar. I believe it is a blend that will be better in smaller formats, ring gauge not length, and that is why I look forward to smoking the corona gorda. Either way, it was a fun release and a nice addition to this years Saints and Sinners kit. It gets 31 out of 35 points in my book.

The two that I smoked had wind tunnel draws and pretty good flavor...not my favorite Tat.

Stars: 5 out of 5
Pros: Entertaining parable about salvation
Cons: None
The Bottom Line:
Adam and Aren
Bring salvation truth to life
In fresh parable
Salvation Comes Alive at Forever Falls
Back in the late 80's Glen Keane released a series of picture books starring Adam Raccoon. These books were designed to be parables for kids illustrating Biblical truths. While I was outside the target audience, my brother had them, and I enjoyed reading them to him. Now that my niece and nephew are the right age, I'm finding out how well they hold up. On a recent visit, I read them Adam Raccoon at Forever Falls, and we all enjoyed it.
If the name of the author sounds vaguely familiar to you, Glen is the son of cartoonist Bil Keane, the creator of the comic strip Family Circus. Additionally, Glen had a career working at Disney during the animation renaissance as a supervising animator, responsible for Ariel, Beast, and Aladdin among other characters.
This book finds Adam Raccoon doing one of his favorite activities – swimming. He would swim all day if he could. However, King Aren, the ruler of the forest where Adam lives, has one law – no swimming in the pool above Forever Falls. But Adam just can't resist taking a quick swim there. Will he be swept downstream?
The theme of this book is salvation, and it comes alive in a great way as we see the consequences of Adam's actions and King Aren's rescue of our hero. This is a picture book, so things are simple, but the theology is sound for a parable. We can't save ourselves from the consequences of our sin, and Jesus paid the price for us. We even get the resurrection.
As in a good parable, we aren't preached at. Instead, the book is filled with a good story and good characters. Yes, it is fairly easy to see who these characters represent, and parents can use the book as a springboard to a more serious discussion about Jesus and what he did for us on the cross. But their kids will want to read the book over and over again because it is fun.
And it is filled with wonderful full color pictures. That shouldn't be a surprise at all with Glen's background. The illustrations are a bit cartoony, but they fit the story perfectly, and there are a couple that are beautiful to look at. It's easy to see why Adam finds the forbidden pool so tempting.
Unfortunately, these books are out of print, so it will take a bit to track them down, but they are totally worth it. Adam Raccoon at Forever Falls is just as great today as it was when it was first published.

This fish is delish. Fish Ceviche is the perfect warm weather food. You never feel heavy after you eat it. It's full of all my favorite Mexican flavors. On top of that, it's cheap and easy to make. Talk about a great way to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. Winner! No chicken dinner, and it'll help you stay thinner.
Fish ceviche is easier than shrimp ceviche. Cleaning raw shrimp takes time. With fish ceviche, you can even use frozen fish. SAY WHAT?! Mushy defrosted fish actually comes in hand when you're chopping it up into tiny pieces.
Then you add tons of yummy lime to mask the frozen fish flavor. The acid from the lime "cooks" the fish. Put it in the fridge. Overnight is best, but no less than 4 hours. It needs time to absorb the lime. You know it's ready when the fish has changed color.
I was inspired to make Fish Ceviche after a recent visit to Ralphs. Love their fresh produce section. I know many people think Mexican food is all about fried food and cheese. When I think of Mexican food, fresh is best. I have a tía in Mexico who doesn't even have a refrigerator. She buys everything that day.
Look at these beauties that I picked up at Ralphs. I could eat them just by themselves with a salt shaker! But no… I diced them and added them to my Fish Ceviche.
This dish does not take any THYME, but it does take TIME. You can't hurry good Fish Ceviche. I usually make this days ahead when I'm chopping up the other ingredients. Don't do double the work. Chop once. Serve with some saltine crackers or tostada and your favorite hot sauce. Hope you enjoy!
2 lbs white fish (such as tilapia), cut into ½ inch pieces.
1 cup fresh lime juice (about 8 limes)
1/2 red onion, finely diced
1 tomato, diced
1 serrano chili, finely diced
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
Saltine crackers (optional)
Tostadas (optional)
Wash the fish.
Pat dry.
Chop into ½ inch pieces.
In plastic or glass container, add the fish and lime juice.
Cover and refrigerator for 4 hours, overnight is best.
Add onion, tomato, chili.
Mix well.
Cover again and refrigerate for another hour.
When ready to serve, add the cilantro and salt.

It may be hard to drag yourself away from Krabi's beautiful beaches, but a visit to Wat Tham Seua is recommended. A tiger once lived in the cave that is now the monastery's main hall and hence the name. Set in a tropical forest 10 kms outside of Krabi Town, the main cave and temple is interesting without being particularly special, but beyond the cave are the two staircases that lead the visitor to the star attractions.
The staircase closest to the large statue of Kuan Im, the Chinese fertility goddess, is by far the less arduous of the two. After an initial small ascent, the steps lead down to the forest floor. Surrounded by limestone cliffs and immense trees, a circular path winds its way around the deep dell and past the monks' meditation cells and living quarters.
The other staircase has over 1200 steps and it's a climb that should not be attempted by the faint-hearted. The steps are steep and uneven and rise up the 600 metre-high cliffside.
I last made the walk up the staircase about 4 years ago and it made me realise just how out of shape I was! I didn't do myself any favours by beginning my climb in the early afternoon and within 10 minutes my shirt was soaked with perspiration. The best time to go is in the early morning or early evening when heat and humidity are lower. Sunrise and sunset ascents are now popular because the 360-degree views at the top are spectacular, encompassing the Andaman Sea, distant islands, limestone karsts and forests.
Take your time and make sure you have plenty of water; you will need it. 10 minutes into my climb, I saw a group of children and then two old women smiling at me as they made their way down the steps. Had they really been all the way to the top? If they had, it was putting me to shame and if they hadn't, they were probably smiling because they knew how stupid I was to be going up at the hottest part of the day. It took me at least 45 minutes (and plenty of rest stops) to reach the shrine at the top of the mountain. As I took in the stunning views, I quickly downed a bottle of water. It had been a real effort to get to the top, but I was pleased I did it because I spent about an hour at the summit just gazing at the view and sitting in silent contemplation. Remember this is a holy site and no matter how hot and sweaty you are at the top, the only thing you should be taking off is your shoes.
It was a bit quicker coming back down, but you do have to take care with some of the narrow steps. As I neared the bottom, dozens of monkeys started to appear and I later found out that many visitors buy bananas to feed to them. No matter how tame they seem, these are still wild monkeys and they can bite and scratch.
Wat Tham Seua is on the itinerary of all tour operators from Ao Nang and Krabi Town and will vary in price depending if you go by shared mini-bus or private taxi. It's possible to make the trip under your own steam. I last did it via a songthaew from Ao Nang to Krabi Town and then another songthaew from Krabi Town. This is probably the cheapest way of doing it, but the songthaew stops at the road adjacent to Wat Tham Seua and leaves you with a 20-minute walk to get to the monastery. It is also not so easy to get a songthaew on the way back. An option is to hire a tuk-tuk from Krabi Town or Ao Nang and negotiate a rate to go to Wat Tham Seua and back.

Estelle Bingham finds herself on an adventure down under on the world's most diverse island, Australia. Through the eyes of three other presenters who have travelled to this area of the world, Justine Shapiro, Ian Wright and Megan McCormick, Estelle takes through the highlights of each of these trips while having her own amazing adventures.
The journey begins with Sydney, and from there we take a tour of Australia's best beaches, which includes the worlds largest sand bar, hang gliding over breathtaking coastlines to the fun filled city beaches. From here we take a look at the fun and funky forms of getting around Australia from flying the vast distances, taking the world renowned Indian Pacific railway and even buying your own car.
Then it's an expedition into the outback where we marvel at the art of bush survival, camel rustling and a genuine night out in the bush with a dingo. We continue our tour of Australia with a segment exploring the culinary delights relishing in swish Australia nouveau cuisine, a local food festival, fresh crab on the beach to bush tucker with witchetty grubs being eaten direct from the land and ants being used for some local lemonade.
Bush tucker leads us into the section about the Aboriginal people. We take a look at some local festivals, beautiful art, the spectacular Ayres Rock (Uluru) and an insight into the complexity and splendour of their beliefs.
Such a vast place allows us to visit some of the most famous and quirky festivals in the remote outback towns. Local rodeo, poetry and a bachelor and spinster party takes us onto the ultimate party of them all, Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.
Australia has a fascinating past and we are taken on a journey through its convict past. From Australia Day, a holiday in memory of people's convict ancestors, to visiting the horrific prison of Port Alfred, the viewer gets a good sense of Australia's history.
Due to its remoteness as an island, Australia has a varied and unique flora and fauna in the most spectacular landscapes. Our presenters meet the cutest and most dangerous of Australia's critters including one presenter sitting on a crocodile and another hugging koalas and a wombat. Dingos, cane toads and snakes also feature and we even meet the world's most magnificent mammal, the Whale Shark.
We then journey into the breathtaking National Parks of Australia. These include the remote and beautiful Bungle Bungles, the crocodile filled Kakadu National Park, the breathtaking canyons in Karijini National Park, last but not least, the spectacular underwater world at the Great Barrier Reef.

Huntington Growing
HOLLAND — Huntington Bank–West Michigan has expanded its customer service center in Holland and added 64 new jobs in the past two months. An additional 46 new positions will be filled by or before the end of the year.
The West Michigan region of Huntington secured more new job allocations from other Huntington service centers around the country because of the quality of the work force in West Michigan, said James Dunlap, regional group president.
"With our recent acquisition of Sky Financial and growth to over $54 billion in assets in the Midwest, we are continuing to expand our service capacity to provide the highest levels of customer service and support," Dunlap said.

One of the biggest advantages to signing up as a new player at an online casino is the opportunity to pick up some great bonuses. These effectively let you play with the casino's money for a limited period of time or up to a set amount, and casinos use them as an effective way of attracting new players and retaining the loyalty of their existing ones.
Here at online-casino-nz, we keep you right up to date with the best value bonuses, free spin offers and other promotions being offered to New Zealand players, so you can always be sure that you're getting not only the latest casino bonus information, but also the very best deals.
The Welcome Bonuses at our recommended sites offer new players some outstanding value to give their bankrolls a real boost. They can take one of several forms:
When you receive an online casino bonus, it comes with wagering requirements attached (these are also often referred to as the playthrough). This is the amount of money you need to wager before you can cash out either any of the winnings you made or any of the free cash itself. The playthrough is usually expressed as a multiple and will apply to either the amount you deposited, or the deposit amount + bonus amount.
As an example, if you sign up and receive 100% match on a deposit of $100, your bankroll now stands at $200. If this comes with a 30x playthrough, in order to 'clear the bonus' (i.e., to be able to cash out any winnings made from it), you would need to wager either $3000 ($100 x 30) if the playthrough only applies to your deposit, or $6000 ($200 x 30) if it applies to both the deposit + the bonus received.
Assessing the overall value of a signup offer therefore requires that you look at not only the size of the wagering requirement, but also whether it applies only to your deposit, or to your deposits and any free cash amount received as well.
A third element to consider when assessing whether a Welcome Bonus is right for you is to look at the different contribution each game makes to helping you meet the playthrough requirements.
For instance, at most of our recommended casinos, pokies make a 100% contribution towards helping you to clear the bonus and meet the playthrough i.e., every dollar wagered counts as a full dollar towards the total sum you're required to wager.
However, not all games contribute at this rate. Table games, like blackjack, craps and roulette, for instance, always make a contribution to the playthrough at less than 1:1 – in some cases, significantly less. This means that for regular players of these and other games, this needs to be factored in when deciding on which signup offer to choose.
In order to clear a bonus as quickly as possible, it's important to understand the conditions before you register. In this way, you can match the amount you initially deposit, the games you play and how you wager to what is needed to meet the wagering requirements.
For instance, the amount players need to deposit when they open an account in order to claim the full bonus can vary quite significantly, especially when there are matches on multiple deposits. Therefore, you should opt for a sign up offer where claiming the full amount won't be beyond your reach. Similarly, when matches are offered on multiple deposits, there can be a time limit applied as to how long you have to make them all. You should therefore be certain beforehand that you can meet this. Finally, check the contributions all games make to the playthrough. At our recommended sites, pokies will always be 100%, but other games can be much lower, so if you like to play these regularly, it will impact on how quickly you can cash out.
Signup bonuses (and other rewards) will generally either be cashable or non-cashable.
With a cashable bonus, once you meet the wagering requirements, you can withdraw not only the money you deposited, but also the free cash you were awarded as part of your sign up. In the example above, after meeting the playthrough, you would be able to withdraw the full $200 (i.e., both your own money and the bonus amount).
A non-cashable bonus, however, would mean even after you've met the wagering requirements, you would only be able to withdraw the $100 you deposited, not any of the free amount, which would stay in your bonus account (although you could, in most cases, continue to play with it).
It's also useful to note that at some online casinos, there is a limit attached to how much you can withdraw from winnings made with wagers using bonus money.
In order to get the full value from any bonus, it needs to fit your playing choices and your wagering style. For instance, for someone who only plays every now and then, or who doesn't want to invest a huge amount into their casino account, a single deposit match is probably the best option. On the other hand, if you play a lot and want to have good-sized bankroll behind you, then you're ideally placed to take advantage of a sign up offer that gives you matches on several deposits, as the amount required to claim the full bonus will be greater.
As part of a sign up deal, some sites give new players a no deposit bonus. This means you receive a set number of free spins, or a cash amount and a limited time to play, just for registering for an account, without being required to make any deposit. Your winnings will normally be capped, but they will be credited to you and once you make your first deposit, you can keep playing with any cash you win. In some cases, winnings from a no deposit bonus will also be cashable once you meet the playthrough.
At the mobile casinos we recommend, new players are entitled to the same sign up offers that are available when playing on a laptop or PC, while some have special Welcome Bonuses and other promotions that are only available to mobile players.
A popular way for casinos to reward regular players is to offer re-load bonuses. The way that these generally work is that once you make one deposit into your account in a calendar month, subsequent deposits, or deposits made on specified days, are rewarded by being matched, usually in the region of 10% but sometimes more.
Often our casinos feature a promotion where if you recommend a friend to join, and they then sign up and make a first deposit, you get a reward, which is usually free spins or a cash prize and can be worth up to $50 at some sites.
This is another type of no deposit bonus awarded to new players as part of a signup offer, and sometimes require casino bonus codes to be activated. You're given either a number of free spins or credits, and a limited time in which to use them, and these are available once you register but before you need to make your first deposit. In most cases, your winnings go into your account and you can continue to play with them once you fund your real money account.
New Zealand online casinos are becoming more innovative in the sign up offers they provide to new players, and so a growing number of Welcome Bonuses consist of a mixture of deposit matches + free spins. Often, the free spins come in blocks – the first part as a no deposit bonus when you register for a new account, followed by the remainder once you've funded your account (sometimes these can be split into two or more instalments). In most instances, the free spins that you're awarded will be for a specific pokie, with winnings credited to your account.
In order to reward their loyalty, high rollers and VIP players often get bonuses above those regular players receive. These usually take the form of loyalty points, which can then be exchanged for free spins and casino credits, as well as other benefits like faster withdrawal times and personalised customer care.
There are plenty of great online casino bonuses out there if you know where to look and what's right for you. Think about the games you play, how you like to wager and what sort of investment you want to make before you sign up to play at a new site, as understanding these important factors will help you make sure that you choose the casino bonus that's right for you.

US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) investigators are to assist the inquiry into yesterday's fatal accident involving Nigerian carrier ADC Airlines Boeing 737-200 during take-off from Abuja international airport.
NTSB investigator Dennis Jones is to head the agency's team. Jones was assigned to represent the NTSB during the probe into two other high-profile accidents in Nigeria last year, involving a Bellview Airlines Boeing 737 at Lagos and a Sosoliso Airlines McDonnell Douglas DC-9 at Port Harcourt.
Nigeria's government is said to be preparing to ground ADC Airlines in the aftermath of the crash.
The aircraft had been carrying around 105 passengers and crew when it came down after departing the Nnamdi Azikwe airport in Nigerian capital Abuja for Sokoto; a handful of those on board survived, although figures have yet to be confirmed.
Nigerian aviation minister Babalola Borishade is said to have decided to withdraw the operating licence of the carrier.
There are few indications as to the precise circumstances of the accident but local media report stormy weather in the area at the time.
Nigerian press reports also state that the aircraft underwent a 3C-check at the end of July last year and was scheduled for a 4C-check in January 2007, with a D-check due in April next year.
Four or five people are reported to have survived, according to local media, down from six or seven as originally suggested by medical personnel.
The aircraft was registered as 5N-BFK. According to Flight's fleet database ACAS, the 737-200 had a serial number of 22891 and was built in 1983. Its legal owner is identified as Celtic Capital of the USA. ACAS says the aircraft had been in service with the airline since 2003.
The aircraft crashed at around 11:30 yesterday soon after takeoff from the . It was operating as flight 53 and was headed for Sokoto. Weather conditions are reported to have been poor at the time with a thunderstorm in the area.
The aircraft reportedly burst into flames upon crashing into a field around 2nm (3km) from the airport.
The airline has posted a statement saying the management and staff "commiserate with families of those who lost their lives in the unfortunate air accident involving its 737 aircraft from Abuja to Sokoto." The short release goes on that the management "prays that God in His infinite mercies will grant the families and indeed all Nigerians the grace to overcome the grief."
Pictures of the incident show that little remains of the aircraft, with only part of the tail and a section of the fuselage intact.
ACAS fleet data says ADC Airlines currently operates four Pratt & Whitney JT8D-15A-powered 737-200s as well as one Boeing 727-200.

My last post on PMDD natural remedies was a little short I have to say, I have been a little busy recently so wanted to make this follow up post giving some more natural remedies for PMDD that you can start using to really make inroad into curing PMDD. Again, I stress that there is no one remedy for PMDD that will solve the entire problem, it takes a concerted effort using a number of different options that will impact on your internal healing processes to bring about lasting change.
That being said, I wanted to focus on two very important parts of treating PMDD naturally: Stress and Sleep.
Stress is a major problem to everyone's health not just PMDD sufferers. It is akin to a modern disease if you ask me, something that insidiously infects our life and plays havoc with all of our internal systems. Stress I believe is very high because life is so fast, so involved, and so varied compared to a long time ago. Sure, we have a lot of things that have relieved pressure from our lives, but I also think we are worse at DEALING with stress these days as well.
There are many problems that stress causes. It can lead to dangerous behaviours like drinking too much alcohol, or sometimes drinking too much coffee, or smoking too (if you are smoking – please, please, PLEASE quit smoking for your health!! I am begging you). All these things mess up your internal systems and especially your hormonal state.
Stress itself is actually not a BAD thing in small amounts for short periods. It gets us motivated and gives us a burst of adrenalin and energy which is caused by the release of a hormone called cortisol. The problem with this is that over a long period of stress this hormone keeps being released. It clogs your body with too many hormones which inhibit other hormonal processes leading to the symptoms of PMDD. Too much stress also lowers your immune system making your body less able to deal with illness and internal cleansing. It is bad news!
Lowering your stress level is therefore one of the most important natural remedies for PMDD you can possibly do!
This is another problem for women with PMDD. Some get too much sleep, others get way too little. Your sleep cycle can often get messed up leaving you tired, lethargic and out of sorts. This happens any time you are out of your usual rhythms of sleep, but then you combine this with other PMDD symptoms you can see how it make the whole situation a heck of a lot worse!
Your aim should be to normalise sleep. Get a sleeping routine going by hitting the hay at the same time every night. Also make sure there are no distractions when going to sleep – complete lack of light, noise and movement that could distract you is essential. Finding your regular sleeping patterns will give you more energy and allow the bodies healing functions to work better to fix the hormonal imbalances as well!

IQ, EQ now CQ? As globalization has rendered the business environment more complex, dynamic, and competitive, the ability to function effectively in different cultural contexts, called Cultural Intelligence (CQ), has never been more important for organizations.
Employees who possess a high level of cultural intelligence play an important role in bridging divides and knowledge gaps in an organization: educating their peers about different cultures; transferring knowledge between otherwise disparate groups; helping to build interpersonal connections and smooth the interpersonal processes in a multicultural workforce. Culturally intelligent employees also posses the potential to drive up innovation and creativity, due to their ability to integrate diverse resources and help the business make best use of the multiple perspectives that a multicultural workforce brings to the workplace.
Such abilities go beyond simply being intelligent, emotionally mature, and/or having good general social skills. CQ is a system consisting of three interactive components - cultural knowledge, cross-cultural skills and cultural metacognition. While these three components of CQ can be developed in different ways (see below), it´s important to note that they do not operate in isolation from each other.
Cultural Knowledge is composed of content (what) and process (how) knowledge of other cultures, such as how and when people express disagreements with each other, and how to give feedback to subordinates.
How To Develop It: You can gain cultural knowledge through multiple channels, such as newspapers, movies, books, traveling to another country, or working with or being friends with people from a different culture. This learning experience will be optimized if you are mindful during the process, such as through carefully identifying what is unique about one culture, analyzing why it is unique, and forecasting when and how you could utilize this knowledge in the future.
Cross-Cultural Skills consist of a broad set of skills instrumental for intercultural effectiveness, specifically:
How To Develop it: Cross-cultural skills are best developed through experiential learning, e.g. through studying or working in a foreign culture where you can practice these skills through trail-and-error.
The development of these skills is accelerated when one is equipped with the appropriate cultural knowledge that was developed earlier. For example, if you know that in cultures such as Spain meeting someone 10 minutes after your arranged time is not considered late, you will feel more at ease when a Spanish colleague does not turn up exactly on time for a meeting. Similarly, being adaptive in a new cultural context requires the knowledge of how to behave appropriately in that culture. Again, this learning experience will be optimized if you are mindful during intercultural interactions and analyze your own behavior as well as your counterpart´s reactions.
Cultural Metacognition (sometimes called Cultural Mindfulness) is the knowledge of and control over one´s thinking and learning activities in the specific domain of cultural experiences and strategies. Being culturally mindful means one is aware of the cultural context, consciously analyzes the interactive situation, and plans courses of actions for different cultural contexts.
How To Develop It: In order to improve cultural metacognition, you need to practice mental exercises where you are observing others´ behaviors, analyzing situations and reflecting on your own behavior.
Developing your CQ in these ways will go a long way to ensure that you and your organization are able to nimbly navigate across cultural boundaries.
By Echo Yuan Liao, Assistant Professor of Managing People in Organizations at IESE Business School. Prof. Liao's research interests lie in cross-cultural management, regulatory focus, cultural intelligence, and multiculturalism.

The app, called inStore, is the latest salvo in the early skirmishes of a battle to urn smartphones into the easiest way to pay. It pitches web firms such as PayPal and Google against financial services firms, as well as the mobile manufacturers and operators.
PayPal's effort, available for Android handsets and the iPhone, allows users to pay using their PayPal account in 230 stores owned by the Aurora Fashions group, which include Coast, Oasis, Warehouse and Karen Millen.
When a shopper wants to make a purchase, they can open the inStore app by entering a PIN. It will generate a barcode that the shop assistant can scan, allowing the store to draw the right amount from the shopper's PayPal account.
"The lines between the online world and high street will soon disappear altogether: research we carried out last year amongst major retailers suggested that 2016 will be the year you won't need a wallet to shop on the British high street," said PayPal UK managing director Cameron McLean. "A phone will be enough."
Unlike many other attempts to turn smartphones into electronic wallets, PayPal's app does not rely on NFC. Google, credit card firms and the mobile operators – as well as, it's rumoured, Apple – are all backing this "wave and pay" technology. It is being built into the latest devices such as the Samsung Galaxy SIII and works in a similar way to London's Oyster card system.
PayPal claimed its app is better, however, because it does not require retailer to install new equipment.
"[It] underlines our view that mobile payments don't need NFC technology to succeed," said Mr McLean.
"PayPal's 'pay by mobile' service works with the phones most of our customers already own. And our retail partner doesn't have to install new systems to take in-store mobile payments."
But NFC's backers have begun a big push of their own on British high street. Barclaycard is currently heavily marketing its "PayTag", a sticker containing an NFC chip designed to be stuck to the back of a smartphone. It converts current devices, which typically lack built-in NFC capability, into electronic wallets.
Despite widespread predictions of a cashless future, some critics have argued that NFC and other mobile payment systems will hand too much control to banks and big technology firms. Never the less, on Wednesday the Post Office said it will soon become Britain's largest operator of NFC pay points.

NewsFremont Health Medical Center Named to Top 100 List
Fremont Health Medical Center in Fremont, Nebraska, was recently named one of the Top 100 Rural & Community Hospitals in the United States by iVantage Health Analytics and The Chartis Center for Rural Health.

Monday's Briefing: Federal Government to Reopen Today; Oakland Women's March Draws About 50,000
Plus, managers at Boot & Shoe Service quit over Hallowell's refusal to divest.
Stories you shouldn't miss for Jan. 22, 2018:
1. The federal government will reopen today after Democratic and Republican Senate leaders agreed to continue talks on an immigration deal to protect young undocumented immigrants, commonly known as Dreamers. The government shut down over the weekend after a tentative deal on immigration between Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and President Trump unraveled — even though Schumer offered to include the president's controversial plan for a border wall in the pact. Trump steered clear of more negotiations over the weekend and remains unsure what he wants in an immigration deal, The New York Times$ reports.
2. The Women's March in Oakland drew about 50,000 demonstrators on Saturday, and a more than a million people took to the streets in cities nationwide to protest against President Trump and his policies. Tens of thousands of people took part in Women's Marches in San Francisco, San Jose, and Walnut Creek, the San Francisco Chronicle reports. "Not Our President — Illegitimate," read a giant banner in the Oakland march.
3. Three managers and chefs at the popular Oakland restaurant Boot & Shoe Service resigned over the weekend in protest of owner Charlie Hallowell's refusal to divest from the company in the wake of sexual harassment allegations, reports Tara Duggan of the San Francisco Chronicle$. At least three more managers of Boot & Shoe said they will quit in the coming days, although no one at Hallowell's other restaurants — Pizzaiolo and Penrose — have said they plan to resign.
4. A United Nations representative described Oakland and California's homeless situation as "cruel" after a tour of Oakland on Saturday, reports Darwin BondGraham of the East Bay Express. UN Special Rapporteur on Adequate Housing Leilani Farha also questioned why wealthy states like California don't spend more to provide affordable housing for low-income and jobless residents.
5. UC Berkeley student Luis Mora, who was detained by immigration officials in Southern California during the holidays, returned to the Bay Area on Sunday night, reports Benny Evangelista of the San Francisco Chronicle. Mora was released on bond after his detainment, which sparked outrage in the East Bay's immigrant rights community.
6. And President Trump made 2,140 false and misleading statements during his first year in office, according to the Washington Post's Fact Checker.

The ebay buyer is complaining that it's hard to judge the size of objects when you see them on a computer screen.
A cartoon about internet sales, on-line marketing, deception, deceptive size.
The joke is that it's impossible to judge goods properly when you buy them on line over the internet, especially through web-baased auction sites such as ebay.

I've signed up for NaBloPoMo for the month of November. There's no assigned theme for November, so I will be focusing on "listening".
Ultimately, it will be listening for God's voice in my life, and taking note of anything that I find worth sharing. One of the spin-off benefits I hope to see is the practice of really listening to the people in my life as well.

Hyderabad, September 09, 2018: The youngest trained Stott Pilates Instructor in the World, an author and an entrepreneur and the youngest celebrity fitness trainer and has who's who of Bollywood coming to her studio to learn Pilates will be in Hyderabad on Monday to share few fitness secrets with Young FICCI Ladies Organisation (YFLO) members.
Sharing details, Vinita Surana, Chairperson of YFLO said in her talk, "Find Your Prime Life," to be held at Park Hyatt in the afternoon, Namrata Purohit will share her complete fitness mantras,
A proud owner of "The Pilates Studio" in Mumbai, which holds the distinction of being the first studio in the world to offer Pilates and Simulated Altitude Training under one roof, Namrata is the only fully certified Barre Instructor in the country. She is also a Certified Boogie Bounce Master Instructor.
Barre fitness is the latest fitness trend that incorporates yoga, dance, and Pilates.
Boogie Bounce is a fun fitness class that incorporates dance, high energy and lots of fun. It is an exercise program on a mini trampoline (a springboard kind of thing). In this every muscle in the body is worked, even the facial muscles.
Pilates in layman's languages is similar to Yoga, concentrates on strengthening the body as well as mind-body connection. Pilates is an exercise technique that was invented for injured dancers nearly a century ago by gymnast Joseph Pilates. While Pilates focuses on core strength, toning and body control, the yoga focuses more on flexibility, spirituality and covers a broader range of muscles, such as the hands, wrist, and ankles.
Unlike some forms of exercise, Pilates does not over-develop some parts of the body and neglect others. Pilates training focuses on core strength. It trains the body as an integrated whole. It helps to develop a strong core, flat abdominals, and a stiff back.
She authored a book 'The Lady Girl's Guide to Being Fit". She is a national level Squash and state level football player in India. She has done her masters in Sports Management,

Thanks for the review, and great work as always. It's nice to get some offroad exposure in a motocross based site.
Thanks, this was one of the most fun shoots we've done in awhile. I wouldn't mind getting into the trees a bit more often (I mean, I do technically live in a desert )

Suddenly, Ted Williams, the man with the "golden voice," is no longer an invisible homeless man. He was catapulted into the media when a video of him and his radio voice was recorded by the Columbus Dispatch and posted on Youtube. Within days the video was viewed 15 million times and Ted Williams became a household name. He has appeared on numerous talk shows, has been offered a home and lots of employment contracts and he has been reunited with his mother who has been praying for him for years. It is an inspiring story.
When I heard about Ted, I thought, "I sure hope he has a good support system around him so he has help dealing with the stress and attention this will bring." I also wonder how this messes with our perspectives on the homeless. Certainly if it were not for his unique talent, Ted would have been looked over and would still be on the street. Until a few weeks ago, not many thought Ted Williams was worth a second glance. I wonder what other amazing talent is being wasted because of the suffocating stress of addiction, isolation and homelessness.
Ted represents many of the people we meet everyday in our interim housing centers at Breakthrough. Some are very talented but have hit bottom due to complicated circumstances. All are valuable as precious human beings created in the image of God. Like Ted, many of them have family members who have been praying for them for years. Most will not get the shot at fame and fortune that Ted Williams is experiencing, but with attention and a strong network of loving support, they can rise to start a new life. There are many inspiring stories waiting to be discovered.
I wish Ted the best and join his mother in saying, "Don't disappoint us Ted." I wonder, will the world still be there to support him if he falls?

Pretty Purrfect Portraiture Offer
Another successful shoot for our Edinburgh Cat Cafe PR campaign. As part of this particularly tough job we've been given we are forced to go to our nearest and dearest and take pictures and 'gulp' - sometimes play with their cats. It's a tough life. We are delighted to introduce you all to Sookie and Sheldon. Two gorgeous wee models belonging to our good friends Sarah and Rodney. They both thankfully were in a very playful mood. Sookie was very pleased with all the attention, Sheldon came around by the end of the shoot. Both make fantastic subjects with lots of cuddles and in between shots and some cat biscuits of course. You all will no doubt be seeing a lot of Sookie and Sheldon along with Malka and Kaira on #theedinburghcatcafe #facebook page in the coming days and weeks. Don't forget to keep and eye on the Facebook page as they will be starting their crowd-source funding project soon - https://www.facebook.com/edinburghcatcafe?fref=ts
And also don't forget to stay abreast of happenings over at the Edinburgh Cat Protection League who are working closely with Anna and Marta at the Edinburgh Cat Cafe to make their dream a reality - https://www.facebook.com/TheEdinburghCatProtectionLeague?fref=ts
The Edinburgh Cat Cafe
You may well know Anna and Marta from the article in the Edinburgh Evening News about the two sisters and their exciting project aimed at bringing Scotland's first Cat Cafe to Edinburgh. We had a wonderful morning of coffee, pastries and cat chat. Their dedication and love for cats really shone through in our conversation and I think it's safe to say we will be first in the queue on opening day. The girls are starting a crowd funding campaign in September and we hope they quickly reach their target. It was great to hear what their plans for the cafe are, the cats that live there are going to be very lucky. Malka and Kaira (our cats) very much enjoyed Anna and Marta's visit, especially as the Da Bird was brought out and they could demonstrate their acrobatic skills - Malka and Kaira that is! We're really looking forward to getting started on all the promotional shoots for the grand opening. You can keep up to date with their page by visiting The Edinburgh Cat Cafe on Facebook and if you want to donate money you can do so by visiting their site on indiegogo when it opens in September.
