Dear Birth Parent
We are Ronnie and Nicole. We met in 2001 through a mutual friend. After one date Ronnie knew I was a catch and we have been together ever since! In 2005 we said our "I do's" and have had quite an exciting adventure ever since. Ronnie has one daughter from a previous marriage, Kelsey. Kelsey is 16 years old and I have been in her life since she was four. She is not my biological daughter, but in my mind and heart she is my daughter and we have a great relationship. Kelsey is with us half of her time. We knew that we wanted to have more children. After some difficult years of unsuccessful fertility treatments, we realized that our desire to have more children could still be achieved. We have so much more love to share with another child and are excited to fulfill our dream of having a larger family.
Even though we met through a mutual friend almost 12 years ago, we grew up in the same neighborhood. In fact, our high schools were rival schools and we tease each other about it all the time. Kelsey even attends the same school that her dad attended. Anytime we are at Kelsey's school Ronnie loves to tell us how much of a stud he was in high school. Kelsey and I just roll our eyes. We live in a small town and are extremely involved in Kelsey's school and activities. She is a varsity cheerleader and enjoying every moment of it. Ronnie and I are HUGE supporters of the high school football, basketball and baseball teams and attend every game to watch Kelsey cheer and root for our players. Sports are very important to us. Ronnie and I both played high school sports and feel it is important for kids to participate in extracurricular activities. Kelsey also competed on a competitive cheer team for three years. We traveled with her throughout the state and never missed a competition. While she was in elementary school I volunteered as PTA Treasurer. Ronnie and I have chaperoned numerous field trips. I was also actively involved in Girl Scouts and was the Cookie Mom for two years. When Kelsey moved on to middle school, I volunteered as Booster Club President. By the time she started high school she said it wasn't cool for me to volunteer anymore. So now I volunteer on committees after school where she can't see me. We feel it is very important to be supportive of her activities and school. This allows us to get to know the teachers, school administrators, and other parents. She just got her license and is now on the road. Our nerves are slowly starting to calm down!
Ronnie is an avid hunter and fisherman. He spends many weekends out on his fishing boat on local lakes, rivers and in the ocean. He also likes to hunt for deer and pheasants. He does a lot of his hunting at his aunt and uncle's cabin about an hour from our house. Ronnie is eager to have a son in his life so he can share these hobbies with him and pass on his enjoyment of the outdoors. I enjoy being with my family, watching football and basketball, taking care of our home, and being a cheer mom! I am looking forward to having a son so I can become a football/baseball mom too. As a family we will often take day trips to the beach, snow or mountains. Summer is our favorite time of the year, and you can find us boating and tubing at a nearby lake. Our vacations are usually to Disneyland, Los Angeles or to visit family in Kentucky. This past Christmas we took a spur of the moment trip to Disneyland to see the park decorated for the holidays. It was absolutely gorgeous.
Ronnie has worked as a salesman for a local gas and oil company for the past 10 years. His job is very flexible and he is often able to work from home. I work at a local university in the financial department and have been working there for 10 years as well. Education is very important to us. One of the perks of working at a University, is my children can attend at discounted rate. We live in a two story, three bedroom home in a wonderful neighborhood. Our local park is known for having amazing events, including a spectacular fireworks show every year. Being in a small town brings the community together for parades on Veteran's Day and the Christmas Parade of Lights. As a family we never miss any of these traditional events. We have two dogs: a yellow lab named Abbie and a German shorthaired pointer named Lucy. Abbie constantly has her tail wagging and Lucy is Ronnie's hunting buddy and loves to find birds. Our family also includes a HUGE cat named Webber. Both of our extended families live close by and are very excited to welcome a little one into our family.
We love to celebrate all holidays, especially Christmas. During Christmas one of our traditions is to visit an amazing house that has thousands of lights. I feel Christmas and birthdays are the time of year to make our children's dreams come true (within reason). Kelsey has fond memories of putting carrots on the lawn for the reindeer and leaving Santa Claus a note. She also receives an Easter basket and a Valentine's Day treat every year. These traditions will continue until she has her own children. Our family is very big on traditions and feels it's important to make our own family special and unique.
Should you choose us to be the parents of your baby; you will have the confidence of knowing that because we are the parents of a 16 year old, we have had lots of experience raising a child. While at the same time the age difference will allow us to devote a lot of undivided attention to the baby. Know that your child will be raised in a home of unconditional love, support, humor and guidance. Most importantly your child will always know how much he is loved.
Ronnie and Nicole

Corporate instant messaging emerges from its security blanket
Corporate instant messaging emerges from its security blanket
The corporate presence and instant messaging market appears to be coming out of the holding pattern it has been in over the last few quarters. Catalysts include the entrance of Sun Microsystems' iPlanet unit into the market, the solidifying of Microsoft's plans in the space and an increase in the perceived need in the market for the technology, which enables employees of companies to communicate securely with one another beyond their local networks.
That the presence-based instant messaging offered by the likes of AOL, MSN and Yahoo is widely used within companies is not disputed. But while many large organizations tolerate its use, few seem to encourage it, despite the productivity gains it can bring. The main reason for this attitude is the valid concern over a lack of security, something the corporate IM software vendors are now addressing.
Along with iPlanet's move, there have been positive reports from companies such as Bantu and Jabber. Others, such as PresenceWorks, while finding business a bit slow right now, are confident they will get to where they want to be over the next few quarters.
Bantu chief executive Larry Schlang said his company has had a "great summer." In addition to a major customer win with the US Army, it now has reseller deals with SAIC and TeleCommunication Systems, and technology partnerships with VeriSign, ATG and Citrix Systems. The company will announce a partnership next week with Blackboard, which plans to integrate Bantu's instant messaging platform into its e-education software, and there are other, more significant deals in the pipeline. Bantu's product doesn't interoperate with public IM networks, but Schlang doesn't think that is a big issue anymore in the corporate market. As long as the security issue is solved, something he believes Bantu has done, the need for this kind of technology is there.
PresenceWorks is in a slightly different business, in that its technology enables a company to detect the online presence of users on the major public IM networks through the company's existing LDAP directory or Microsoft Outlook. That presence information -- whether someone is online, offline, in a meeting, and so on -- can then be used to either launch an IM session using AIM, MSN, Yahoo or ICQ clients or to direct the person or people to another, more secure area, which may involve integrating with an existing collaboration technology such as WebEx or Groove. PresenceWorks believes it is addressing the current reality of employees using insecure public IM networks, rather than simply trying to encourage companies to use a different set of tools.
Company founder and chief executive Matt Smith says that business is fairly slow but is progressing in the right direction. The company has found a lot of interest in the product's ability to integrate with Outlook. The idea is that there is no need to have separate buddy lists for each IM network -- sessions can be launched from the Outlook Contacts interface. The company is spreading the word through an offer of limited free use of its technology, and is working to seed the market over the next few months while looking for software partners with which to integrate its technology. A few top CRM vendors would help a lot.
IPlanet bought its technology from NetLert. While the technology appears to be more basic than that of some of its rivals, Sun is selling it as an add-on to its portal rather than as a stand-alone product. That tie-in should help it overcome some of its deficiencies, which include the fact that users will need a Java Virtual Machine that supports Java Swing applications -- although, obviously, Sun can supply this to those that don't have it. It ships next month.
The other main players in the corporate space are Jabber (the commercial arm of the Jabber open source project), Ikimbo, Mercury Prime and 2Way, as well as the companies that sell presence-based CRM applications, such as FaceTime and PeopleLink, and those that sell IM systems mostly to mobile carriers, such as Odigo and MessageVine, along with Jabber.
Now that Microsoft has completely unveiled Windows XP and its integrated messaging system, and it does not appear to be particularly targeted at consumers, it seems the software giant will play in this space via Exchange, putting it up against Lotus' Sametime and to some extent iPlanet.
Standards are taking a long time to come about. By the time they do, interoperability -- which has caused major public spats between AOL and everybody else over the last two years -- won't be such a big issue. As companies such as PresenceWorks have shown, there are ways around that now.
The interesting challenge now is to get the presence information into other applications beyond IM. A few months ago it was thought that mobile operators would be the first to make real progress in spreading the power of presence, but they have a lot of usability issues to sort out first. It seems more likely that CRM, sales force automation and education software vendors will be the early pioneers in taking presence beyond text messaging using stand-alone clients.

The central bank held on to the policy rate at 6.25% in its monetary policy review on June 7, 2017, the second bi-monthly review for the financial year 2017-18.
"We were anticipating a rate cut this time which would have pushed the banks to further reduce the lending rates. Any reduction in lending rate allows the sentiments to improve as the net cost on the buyer for the housing unit gets decreased. With RERA and GST to have a joint impact on the realty sector, a rate cut this time could have provided a much needed breather for the sector, its players and the buyers as well," says Manoj Chaudhary, MD, Airwil Infra.
Kushagr Ansal, Director, Ansal Housing adds, "A rate cut of 25 bps could have helped ease the pressure off the market which has been balancing itself through the confusion still pertaining with RERA. With GST to become operational from July, prices for properties are expected to shoot up. During such scenarios, a slash in repo rate would have meant drop in home loan rates by banks, which ultimately reduces the burden off the buyers. With no change today, we expect the market to run uniformly with a static demand in the short run."
Although most of them agree that the status quo from the bank was expected considering the market dynamics and a historic tax reform in the form of GST is in the pipeline.
"We do not expect rate cuts anytime soon. Impact of the monetary policy on the real estate sector will be minimal. A cut in repo rate would have made home loans more accessible to home buyers, thereby improving buyer sentiments. We believe the RBI has taken a cautious stand keeping in mind the implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) from July 1," says Sachin Sandhir, Global Managing Director – Emerging Business, RICS.
Prashant Tiwari, Chairman, Prateek Group, said, "The announcement is according to the market dynamics and the rates will only reduced once the inflation settles down. Although government is taking corrective measures for economic growth and stability, there is a need to adopt a balanced approach considering the growth of key sectors like real estate. Homebuyers have been waiting for reduction and they will swarm the real estate market thereby helping the sector regain the glorious days".
RBI however slashed the statutory liquidity ratio (SLR) by 50 base points to 20%, which is expected to instill more liquidity into the banking system which will indirectly help banks to lend more money, feel industry experts.
"Housing loans possibly will get cheaper as provisioning requirements get reduced. However many banks have already cut down their interest rates which is a positive sign for the home buyers," says Ashwin Sheth, CMD, Sheth Corp Ltd.
Anshuman Magazine, Chairman – India and South East Asia, CBRE says, "This could prove beneficial for prospective home buyers with the expectation that lending institutions could further lower the interest rates on loans. A focus on controlling the inflation rate coupled with other reforms is expected to further foster the growth of the real estate sector in the second half of the year."
Here is how other industry players reacted to RBI keeping the repo rate unchanged:
Sanjay Shenoy, Joint Managing Director, Legacy Global Projects
Considering the current market scenario where job creation and job loss has been a major concern; along with a delay in implementation of the central policy for infrastructure development and improvement of the power sector; it was highly unlikely that a cut in lending rates was going to be announced. The probability of a rate cut in August seems low as well. The GST implementation is another factor which is more of a wait and watch game at the moment, along with its effect on the inflation rates. It is difficult to predict a positive impact in a duration of 2 months.
Gaurav K Shah, Managing Director, Ravi Group of Companies
A repo rate cut would have given the necessary boost to the industry and helped loan off-take to ease out liquidity in general. We look forward to favorable announcements by RBI post monsoon. Also, the cut in repo rate would have ensured housing loans being more accessible at attractive rates which could have renewed the interest of investors as well as home buyers. Banks are not expected to cut lending rates any further.
Keeping in mind the mission of the government of housing for all by 2022, the move of the apex banks to cut the SLR by 50 bps reduce the risk weights on affordable housing applicable to lower value will also benefit the sector.
Avneesh Sood, Director, Eros Group
Looking at the market dynamics, we were projecting the RBI to maintain the status quo as it is currently holding high liquidity and a historic tax reform in the form of GST is in the pipeline. A balanced move today will allow the market to absorb the upcoming impacts from GST on various industries and sectors. The next policy review might allow the RBI to cut repo rate, the benefit of which might be passed on by the banks in the near future.
Dhiraj Jain, Director, Mahagun Group
Even though the RBI has not cut the repo rate today, still there is a lot of room for the banks to further reduce the lending rates. The previous repo rate reductions by the apex bank are yet to offer the complete results; that is held by the banks. A lending rate of 6-7 percent is ideal for our realty sector as we are moving towards strong policy changes at the national level which will leave long term effects on the realty sector and its allied industries.
Deepak Kapoor, President CREDAI-Western U.P. & Director, Gulshan Homz
This decision of RBI to keep the rates unchanged will prove very substantial in the first quarter post GST is implemented. Before questioning the judgement of the apex bank on holding the rates, one must not forget that it has to keep sufficient cushion for the economy with the massive changes that will come about in the next few months in form of REITs, InvITs, GST, and SPVs.
Surendra Hiranandani, Chairman & MD, House of Hiranandani
We feel that the central bank decided to wait for the July 1 rollout of the GST and assess the impact of the new indirect tax regime on inflation before tinkering with the policy rates.
However, it should be noted that inflation has been under control for long and is likely to remain so on the back of good monsoon forecast. As per recent reports, consumer price inflation slowed down to 2.99 per cent in April and economic growth during the last fiscal was at its slowest pace in two years coupled with weakest loan demand since at least 1992. Hence, a reduction in borrowing cost could have provided the much needed impetus for growth in the near term.
Shishir Baijal, Chairman & Managing Director, Knight Frank India
Considering the benign inflation numbers we expected the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to adopt a growth-inducing dovish monetary policy unlike its hawkish stance witnessed in the previous review. With the initial concerns from geopolitical uncertainties such as the US polls, BREXIT and other crucial elections in Europe, fading away, the central bank's Monetary Policy Committee's long term view should be to accelerate growth. A growing economy would signal healthy consumption across all genres of the Indian real estate. With tamed inflation, uptick in industry sentiments and a good monsoon forecast the need of the hour is to embrace a monetary policy that propels growth.
Samir Jasuja, Founder and CEO of PropEquity
The realty sector was expecting a cut especially when even last time the RBI did not cut REPO rate. Yet the buyers and developer expect the banks to lower the borrowing rate to give the sector required boost specially when sector is facing the heat. Housing demand declined by 19 % pan India in Quarter 1. As real estate sector in India is sensitive to repo rate cuts which leads to lower borrowing costs for home buyers and triggering demand, this announcement will further impact the ailing realty sector.
Saurabh Jindal, Joint Managing Director, SVP Group
We believe that the RBI has kept the rates unchanged looking at the inflation factor and it is unlikely that rates will be changed before the effects of GST comes into effect or the better effects of monsoon are visible on economy. However, in real estate we are hopeful that lending rates may still come down looking at the government's focus on housing for all. Hoping for the best, we can say that it has been long due and will help in reviving the market sentiments.
Deepak Kapoor, President, CREDAI Western UP
Real Estate sector was very much in need of a rate cut even if it was to be of 25-50 basis points. But, similar to last time, this policy review also did not brought any relief to the real estate sector as status quo was maintained. The realty sector is already under immense pressure and most of the projects in Noida & Greater Noida nearing completion and readying for possession soon. Therefore, in such a scenario, rate cut was the need of the hour to provide the much needed boost to the sector and to facilitating growth on the other hand.

Baby Hopper (a junior version of Grasshopper pose)
I've been seeing such wonderful and
inspirational poses on Instagram (IG) with group that tag themselves "May the Force be with Yogis." A pose I came across is called "Baby Hopper," a derivative of Grasshopper pose. This one seems more accessible to students as an arm balance, but it does require open hips and twisting. Remember, always consult a physician before exercising and know this pose isn't for every BODY. Remember, no pain tolerance rule!!!!
Prepare yourself with tons of Sun Salutations. I always include core work so students can awaken their strength, Manipura chakra. I add twist work, such as chair twists, lunge twists and revolved balancing half moon. Put some hamstring work in it as well…standing splits, triangle pose, etc. Then, prepare.
Step 1.
Come into a lunge. Then, look down at your mat, slowly come on the outer edge of the back foot and slide the top leg to center. Set yourself down and marinate to open side torso and outer hips.
Step 2.
Get a little deep in the pose. Both forearms down on mat.
Step 3. Hug the top knee. Play around with where you feel the best stretch.
Step 4.
Slide the bottom leg forward so you can grab it. Lift the leg and slowly lean forward. This variation is on the forearm. Draw your collar bones forward!
The other variation is on your hand with chartarunga arm as you pull your collarbones forward.
Have fun playing around with this pose! Remember that little steps will get you there. The key is to have your back thigh close to your front calf! Work on each step one by one until you're ready to take the fullest pose.
(Dedicated to my friend Linda)

This is my most used Dutch Oven (except possibly for my little warming ovens.) I make lots of soups and sauces in it. If you can only buy one Dutch Oven you might want to consider the 7 quart oven as you can make a full batch of broth in it and you can use it for soups and sauces as you would this one. However, if you have the luxury and space for more than one Dutch Oven, you may want to consider getting this one and the 9 quart. However, if you have a slightly bigger family, you might want to consider the 5 quart Dutch Oven.

Wyse is currently the premier vendor of low-cost ICA-based Windows terminals. For less than $1000 (street price), you can purchase a desktop unit with a 14" color monitor, keyboard, mouse, and ports for 10Mbit-per-second (Mbps) Ethernet, serial, and parallel connections. For even less money, you can purchase gray-scale units or units without an Ethernet connection (to use for remote access). And if you supply your own monitor, keyboard, and mouse, you can purchase a pizza box unit in the $500 neighborhood.
I tested the Wyse 2500T terminal, which includes an Ethernet connection, 14" color monitor, keyboard, and mouse. The configuration I worked with supports only 16 colors, but a firmware download lets you upgrade to 256 colors.
Configuring the terminal was simpleyou configure it with an IP address or set it to use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and then enter the IP address of the ICA NT server system. When you start the terminal, it connects to the NT server, and the next thing you see is a Windows NT logon screen, so you can log on and interact with the NT server as if you were sitting at a direct-attached monitor with a keyboard and mouse.
The Wyse terminal works with any ICA-based server product, or you can purchase the Wyse implementation of WinFrame (see Screen A). The Wyse implementation is packaged several different ways: For example, the base package ($1499) supports five terminals but does not include ICA client software, does not support RAS, and cannot be a domain controller. You can buy extra terminal licenses, client software, and RAS/domain controller support separately.
I tested the base software in the Lab and found that it installed and operated as well as any other implementation of WinFrame I looked at. I also tested the Wyse terminal against the Wyse, Tektronix, Insignia, and NCD implementations of WinFrame, and the Wyse terminal worked consistently and reliably.
In performance tests, I experienced no significant I/O delays running the Wyse terminal in a LAN environment. Clearly, performance wasn't as good as that of a full-blown Pentium Pro NT Workstation, but in my judgment, it ran as well as a low-end Pentium or high-end 486 system running NT. I was pleasantly surprised by the terminal's performance, especially considering its low price.

It's true: I myself am a consultant on customer centricity (consulting, in other words, on the concept formerly known as "the customer experience," and, before that,"customer service.")
But that doesn't mean I'm any more excited about the shifting tides of jargon than you are. The goal of a consultant should be to simplify, not to complicate.
And what we are talking about here shouldn't require a lick of jargon. We are talking about: Putting. The. Customer. In. The. Center.
Customer centricity is a simple concept to grasp (although not to carry out). It's one of the fundamental concept of businesss, dating back, no doubt, to medieval innkeepers and before.
What is un-simple about customer centricity? Here's my partial list:
1. Reinforcement: keeping customer centricity in the front of the skulls of the easily distractable and side-trackable humans you employ (not to mention at the front of your own skull). Which is why you need to devise a plan of attack on the reinforcement front: The properly structured staff meetings (once every day--briefly-- at Ritz-Carlton, once a week at more meeting-averse organizations, but at any rate more than "once-a-never"). As well as the collateral materials, programs, and processes that keep reinforcement humming.
This is because you start out every morning with a distracted and misaligned workforce, struggling to pull themselves back together after the previous night's misadventures, and the minor or major catastrophes of their lives at home and en route to work. And you have to realign them around the customers who will be assailing them all day and align them away from thinking about that morning's traffic jam, last evening's awkward blind date, their foot cramps, and so forth. This is a realignment that requires planning, skill, and subtlety.
2. Executing customer centricity. Do you think the local, poorly designed, downtrodden web-based business is any more anti-customer in its intentions than the above-mentioned amazon? Probably not. In fact they probably care more about customers, because they have so many fewer of them. Where they're lacking is execution.
3. Updating your methods to match your customer-centric intentions. Your well-intentioned reinforcement tools and processes can over time morph into reinforcements of rote behaviors. Behaviors that no longer suit your customers. Keeping your focus on the core concept and then changing how you apply it in your business's particulars is tricky and can easily trip you up.
4. Staffing up for customer centricity. You need to embrace the hiring of employees for customer friendly traits, employees who, if you want a shortcut, match up to my WETCO trait-based hiring model. (Warmth-Empathy-Teamwork-Conscientiousness-Optimism: see article here.)
5. Building an overall culture of support for customer centricity. Hiring (point 4) is central to building a customer centric culture. But it's not the whole shmear. Building a culture includes placing value on what is valuable, without relying too much on extrinsic bribery. It includes setting an example. Having a meaningful, understandable, and company wide supported mission sentence. And more.
Each of these, of course, will take more than the paragraph I've devoted to it. And, in fact, may be why you need--or would benefit from -- a customer centricity initiative, whether or not led by a consultant. In the meantime, don't let the jargon get to you. It's just about customers and you. You know this stuff. You just have to get better at it. Again and again.

A selection of colorized photographs from the upcoming book The Paper Time Machine that shows iconic landmarks around the world undergoing construction. The book, which will contain 130 reconstructed color historical photographs arranged chronologically, is a collaboration between Retronaut website founder Wolfgang Wild and Jordan Lloyd of Dynamichrome. Lloyd restored and colorized each image, after researching and color checking for historical authenticity, to make the viewers feel like they are looking at a modern photograph. He tells the Daily Mail:
It's the details that leap out, I think—things like the idea of advertising in the 1840s and in full colour fly-posted to the hoardings of Trafalgar Square, or the Eiffel Tower being in a particularly vibrant shade of red when it was being constructed. These details bridge the gap between decades to something that everyone can suddenly relate to—seeing something from that long ago in colour helps us understand it a little better because colour plays a major part in how we interact with the world.

Another FABTECH Expo has come and gone, and at PFERD we believe that 2016's version was a huge success! FABTECH's importance in the fabrication, welding and finishing industries is reflected in the strong attendance both in number of attendees and in the vast number of geographical markets around the world visitors represented. This year's FABTECH drew attendees from 120 countries with a total of 31,110 visitors over the three day event.
FABTECH gives us at PFERD an invaluable opportunity to meet face-to-face with end users. We had several visitors this year that brought their metalworking challenges directly to our booth. Not only does this give us an opportunity to use our expertise to solve problems, but it provides us with an opportunity to see some of the unusual applications our customers deal with on a daily basis.
FABTECH is a premier venue for us to highlight the breadth of our portfolio and demonstrate the innovative solutions we bring to users. Unique, innovative products such as our CC-GRIND®-SOLID grinding disc, POLIFAN-CURVE® flap disc and DUODISC® cutting and grinding disc were featured in our grinding booth where visitors saw firsthand how these products perform in true applications, and the benefits these products bring to their everyday tasks.
While we are well known for our grinding, cutting and surface finishing applications with hand tools, our brush station gave visitors a first-hand look at our power brush solutions for industrial applications on CNC and robotic machines. Work pieces and videos highlighted deburring applications with our M-BRAD® composite brush portfolio which focused on overall value through optimization of work processes was a primary focus of our message to visitors.
The PFERDVALUE® program which highlights how our products and solutions address concerns with operator health and safety, as well as delivering cost savings and productivity increases really resonated with attendees. A fun and interactive way we were able to demonstrate factors such as noise, vibration, haptics and emissions was with our interactive ERGOCUBE displays. These displays gave a simulated physical experience of how PFERD's products improve upon these key areas of concern for operators in the metalworking industry.
As PFERD is committed to being an innovative, solutions-oriented manufacturer, we look forward to interacting with both current and future end-users at the FABTECH show. It is an annual highlight of the imagination, innovation, and expertise of the PFERD team, and we can't wait for FABTECH 2017!

Technical Paper
Blending of Higher Alcohols with Vegetable Oil Based Fuels for Use in Compression Ignition Engine
Concerns about long term availability of petroleum based fuels and stringent environmental norms have been a subject for deliberations around the globe. The vegetable oil based fuels and alcohols are very promising alternative fuels for substitution of diesel, reduce exhaust emissions and to improve combustion in diesel engines which is mainly possible due to oxygenated nature of these fuels. Jatropha oil is important non-edible oil in India which is either used in neat or modified form as diesel fuel. Furthermore n-butanol is renewable higher alcohol having properties quite similar to diesel fuel. In the present study, n-butanol was blended in Jatropha Oil (JO) and Jatropha Oil Methyl Ester (JME) on volumetric basis (10 and 20%). The blends were homogeneous and stable and there was no phase separation. The different physicochemical properties of blends were evaluated as per relevant standards.

Have you ever had a secret lover with whom you communicate using WhatsApp? Maybe you have unpopular opinions that you discuss with family and you don't want people to know about them. Maybe you've been sending naughty pictures of yourself to your boyfriend or girlfriend and you don't want anyone to find out. There could be dozens of reasons why you would want to delete media or messages from WhatsApp:
- Lots pictures, videos or documents would occupy huge storage space.
- Some media would be very private that you don't want to keep any more, like something shy you share with boyfriend/girlfriend.
- You can communicate about business on WhatsApp and you don't want it to be leaked.
Part 2: 4 Simple Way to Delete WhatsApp Media from iPhone, Recoverable
- Method 1: Clear Media from Group/Individual
- Method 2: Delete Media, Links and Docs Selectively
- Method 3: Delete WhatsApp Data from Chat Window
- Method 4: Delete All Chats from WhatsApp
Part 3: Save iPhone Space - Stop Saving WhatsApp Media to Camera Roll
Part 4: Where to Check WhatsApp Memory Usage on iPhone
Permanently Delete WhatsApp Media from iPhone, 100% Unrecoverable
As you might already realize, when you delete anything on your iPhone manually, it is just invisible from your iPhone. Under normal circumstances, deleting things merely removes from your sight, but the data is still actually lurking below the surface and is recoverable with the right software. This data can then be discovered by hackers or people who are simply determined to find out what you've been up to.
You can beat them at their own game by using software to find and permanently delete your WhatsApp media before they do. For example, using an iOS data eraser like iMyFone Umate Pro or iMyFone Umate Pro for Mac can get rid of all sorts of information from WhatsApp, delete media, chat history, and remove other kinds of data permanently.
- 100% Unrecoverable: Any data erased by iMyFone is no longer recoverable with any tool.
- Preview and Select: You can permanently wipe WhatsApp media/data selectively, or all at a time.
- Wipe Deleted WhatsApp Media: Previously deleted data which are still recoverable will be scanned and erased, leaving no traces.
- Various Data: It support to wipe texts, photos, videos, links, docs, etc from WhatsApp, and any other private data from iPhone.
iMyFone Umate Pro wins thousands of loyal users every year and receive lots of positive reviews from macworld.co.uk, Makeuseof.com , Cultofmac.com etc.
How to Delete WhatsApp Media from iPhone Completely
Simply download iMyFone Umate Pro and take a free scan of your iPhone private data.
Step 1: Launch iMyFone Umate Pro on your PC or Mac. Connect your iPhone to computer. Wait for Umate Pro to detect your iPhone.
Step 2: Choose from the erasing modes from the left panel. In this case, tap Erase Private Data. Then hit Scan on that page and it will start scanning your iPhone.
Note: If you want to erase deleted WhatsApp data, choose "Erase Deleted Files" mode.
Step 3: When scanning is done, it shows you all the private data on your iPhone: Message, Call History, Safari history, Photos & Videos, Note, WhatsApp, WeChat, etc. You can preview and select WhatsApp media from the WhatsApp Attachment category, or text messages from WhatsApp category.
Step 4: When you have selected unwanted data, click Erase Now and then confirm by typing "delete" into the box.
Just wait for it to erase the selected data from your iPhone. It will take some time, but the result is clean and privacy protection.
4 Way to Delete WhatsApp Media from iPhone, Recoverable
Method 1: Clear Media from Group/Individual
- Launch WhatsApp on your iPhone.
- Go to Settings at the bottom.
- Tap Data and Storage Usage and then Storage Usage.
- Choose the specific group or individual name. It will show you the storage space occupied by this chat's text, photos, GIFs, videos, etc.
- Simply tap Manage... and select the media you want to delete.
- Tap Clear at the bottom and confirm the deletion.
By this way, you can delete WhatsApp media without deleting the text messages. However, you need to clear media of every chat one by one. There is no one-stop option.
Method 2: Delete Media, Links and Docs Selectively
- Open WhatsApp on your iPhone.
- Go to Chat tab at the bottom and get into the chat where you want to delete media from.
- Simply tab on the header. You will see Media, Links, and Docs.
- It will show you all the media of this chat. You can also tap Links or Docs tab from the top to show the specific items.
- Tap Select at the top right corner. Select the unwanted files and tap the trash icon at the bottom right corner. Confirm it by tapping Delete X for Me.
In this way, you can preview and delete the media selectively. As the same to the Method 1, you need to clear all the unwanted media from different chats one by one.
Method 3: Delete WhatsApp Data from Chat Window
Alternatively, you can clean up the WhatsApp data from chat windows.
- On your WhatsApp app, go to Chats tab at the bottom.
- Open any chat window. Simply tap on the header.
- Scroll down. Tap the option Clear Chat.
- You will get an option to Delete all except starred or Delete all messages.
This will help you to delete all the text, photos, videos, docs, links, etc from this chatt all at a time. If you want to keep any messages, star them from the chat window. So you can choose "Delete all except starred" when you clear chat.
Method 4: Delete All Chats from WhatsApp
Note that, this will delete everything form all chats including texts, photos, videos, docs, etc. When it's done, you will find your Chats window empty.
- Open WhatsApp on iPhone.
- Go to Settings tab and choose Chats option.
- Tap Delete All Chats.
- To confirm it, you need to type your phone number there and tap Delete All Chats.
Deleting your chats will delete your message history on this iPhone and also delete all sent and received media.
Save iPhone Space: Stop Save to Camera Roll
Except to delete media, there is an additional setting on WhatsApp we recommend to save iPhone storage space:
- On your iPhone, launch WhatsApp.
- Go to Settings tab at the bottom.
- Choose Chats.
- Switch Save to Camera Roll off.
Please note that, this setting is on by default. When it's on, WhatsApp will automatically download a copy of all media files to your iPhone camera roll, which uses your iPhone storage and internet data.
Where to Check WhatsApp Memory Usage on iPhone
You may be curious how much storage space occupied by WhatsApp on your iPhone. You can't find it inside the WhatsApp app, but you can view it according to iPhone storage display.
- On your iPhone, open Settings app.
- Go to General > iPhone Storage. It will show you the details of the whole iPhone storage usage there, like Apps, Photos, Mail, Messages and Other.
- Just scroll down there to see the app section. All the apps will be listed there with the usage size.
- Find the WhatsApp and tap on it. Inside, you will see Documents & Data which is the storage usage inside WhatsApp.
However, you cannot view more details about WhatsApp usage, like media usage, texts usage, etc.

In a post last night, I criticized the use of a Yaqui prayer as the invocation to the memorial service in Tucson. In doing so, I failed to give the prayer the respect it deserves. Although I did not intend this as a slight to the religion or to the Yaqui tribe, it can clearly be interpreted as one. For this, I sincerely apologize to my readers, to the Yaqui tribe, to all tribal leaders and Indian people, and, specifically, to Carlos Gonzales who delivered the prayer. I regret my poor choice of words, and I have removed the post.

People with heart failure may benefit from practicing tai chi, according to research supported in part by NCCAM and published in the journal Sleep Medicine. Because patients with chronic heart failure often experience insomnia and impaired breathing during sleep—which could further impair heart function and lead to potentially dangerous heart rhythm disturbances—improving sleep and sleep breathing is an important goal.
Researchers at Harvard Medical School and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston analyzed sleep in 18 patients with chronic heart failure. All patients were on maximal medical therapy. The patients were assigned into one of two groups: a usual care group (the control) that received medication and diet/exercise counseling, or a tai chi group that received usual care plus 12 weeks of tai chi training. Compared with the usual care group, the tai chi group had significant improvements in sleep stability. The tai chi group also demonstrated significant quality-of-life improvements over the usual care group. Further, correlations were seen between improved sleep stability and improved quality of life.
The researchers concluded that a 12-week tai chi exercise program may help heart failure patients sleep better. They noted that it remains to be determined if any single component of tai chi—meditation, relaxation, or physical activity—may be responsible for the observed benefit. They suggested further research to better understand the mechanisms of tai chi's effects on sleep should include more conventional sleep testing to document sleep stages and patterns of sleep disruption.

A spot located at Quality Link Park, in Wuse Zone VII, Abuja was on Thursday gutted by fire, which destroyed over N10m worth of properties.
The Managing Director of the park, Mr. Chinemelu Onwughalu, described the incident as unfortunate, noting that more than N10m worth of property was destroyed by the inferno.
He recalled that a similar incident happened four years ago, saying that the cause of the fire had been traced to the same person.
He, however, commended the Federal Capital Territory Fire Service for its prompt response to emergency call to put out the fire.
A gardener, Mr. Abijah Britus, said the incident happened after he set some grass ablaze.
"I was asked to burn the grass by my elder in the church, known as Community of Hashem Worldwide, and I told him the fire can extend but he insisted that I should go ahead and burn the grass."
The leader of the fire service team, Mr. Ijomah Azubuike, attributed the incident to "carelessness on the part of the young man burning grass close to the fence of the fun spot."
He said, "He did not stay there to monitor the fire.
"This is what we call conventional fire, where smoke rises high above the fire level and breeze carries it sideways and then anywhere it touches it burns, especially this grass roof system.''
He said two huts out of the six in the park were partially razed while some items were salvaged from the scene of the incident.
"For now, we cannot ascertain the cost of the materials damaged by the fire because we were not here before it broke out.
"We have to liaise with the owner of the building before we can ascertain the worth of what was destroyed," he added.
Azubuike advised people to exercise caution during the dry season, especially when using fire to clear refuse.

Now, why not add your own Bryant Park story? For listening and recording on to go, head over to iTunes for the free Broadcastr App.

Wish List Update
It's just at the half point of January and I've two things I want to add to my Wish List already!
Now, I should add, that doesn't mean I will definitely purchase them.
It just means I'll enjoy musing over whether I want to acquire these items, or not. And, perhaps eventually will. We'll see.
So, there's two items I'm adding and both are related to Alexander McQueen.
He was a British fashion designer and you may or may not be familiar with him. Just in case, here's a little 411.
Lee Alexander McQueen, CBE was an English fashion designer and couturier. From 1996 to 2001, he worked as chief designer at Givenchy. He also founded his own label, Alexander McQueen.
He was innovative, bold and a non conformist and I loved that about him. He did things his own way and was extremely well loved.
From some of his Tweets he seemed deep, thoughtful and sometimes melancholy. The myth of the tortured creative soul, is perhaps not a myth.
He committed suicide at age age 40, just days after his mother beloved Joyce's death.
Only three years previously his very close friend, a well known English style guru, Isabella "Issie" Blow killed herself.
She's famously attributed with having helped Alexander become a star.
Alexander McQueen Book
The first item I want to muse over is his book, Savage Beauty. It's a beautiful coffee table book and one of the most highly rated coffee table fashion books on Amazon.
If I can find it at the library, I'll review it there and decide if I want to purchase it.
Reason being, I'm at a point in my life where I want to divest of things vs just simply adding them. I don't want this to be one more thing to move around and dust, just for the sake of it.
But if I really, really love it, I will purchase it and ditch something else to make space for it.
Alexander McQueen Belt
Gucci belts seem to be the "in" thing these days for fashion bloggers and I do like them.
However, if I'm going to invest in a belt to add to my closet, I'd love something a little bit more unique and elusive.
So the second thing I'm adding to my Wish List is one of his belts. I think I'd really love one with his infamous skull buckle. However, I also like the ones where the buckles are his initials.
Neither of these will be easy to find but I'm in no particular rush.
I think I would like to enjoy his book and learning more about him and then making the right choice of belt for me. Assuming I can find it!
It's a new era in fashion – there are no rules. It's all about the individual and personal style, wearing high-end, low-end, classic labels, and up-and-coming designers all together.
~ Alexander McQueen
I love this quote, as someone who loves luxury from Chanel (preferably vintage) to Target finds!
Anyhoo, that's my latest Wish List update and I'm sure there will be more.
Whatever I add to, or take off this list, I'll keep you posted.
Glow with the flow

I went out yesterday on a hike with Dave and I brought my meditation journal with me, thinking that I would have just found a calm place to sit by the river, meditate then write like I usually do. Rather, I became observant to my surroundings and then to my own feelings that I've been tossing around in my head lately. I was moved by my writing experience and thought I should share it. Here's what I wrote/felt:
I'm in love with nature. Dave and I came to the "tubs" area today to meditate and hike. There's many different to explore that wind along the river and limb up rocky, steep hills. The trails are made of soft fallen pine needles and leaves, long browned from seasons passed. Large tree roots create stairways and make for a tricky ascent or descent when travelling. Along most paths- mountain laurels adorn the hillsides. Small white flowers with a pinkish hue create a brightened landscape amongst all the greenery. The area is called "the tubs" because there are seven natural carved out areas of rock that resemble large tubs. These cut outs were created from the continuous water flow cascading down from the mountainside. Probably taking hundreds of years to erode, the rounded out caverns with smooth edges and deep pools are now a permanent part of the Earth. Just another awe-striking form in these endless forms most beautiful.
Currently, Dave and I are at the peak of a steep hill. We climbed the rocky path to find a quiet place. From here we can see another lush mountain in the distance. Closer, there are oak trees which are being vivaciously devoured by ruthless gypsy moth caterpillars. There's a terrible invasion this year- when you look at most of the mountains, there are massive brown spots that spread out for miles. Soon, the creepy critters will turn to moths, but that won't make next year any better. With literally thousands of them spawning, there's sure to be another outbreak. Sitting here now, it sounds like rain water hitting the leaves. As fast as the hungry creatures eat, they are making it come out the other end.
Aside from crawling critters, there's blueberry bushes in front of me, and a bed of green/brown moss below. There's occasional passerby's and some distant traffic sounds, but other than that, it's quiet. I feel it's an escape- even from our normal life, which isn't too busy, but we always seem to be going somewhere- doing something- always watching the clock. Today we're doing that a bit as we have a small agenda. I'd rather sit and explore nature all day. It's comforting. I think of my aunt Linda, and wonder if she's feeling any peace yet from the loss of uncle Klaus. I wonder if she's ever felt this peace. If there was ever a memory that she could fall back on in her time of grieving. It's still strange to think that uncle Klaus is truly gone. Harder still is the ever-present change that has gripped me and the family. But, from my perspective, life drastically changed the day I moved out- almost one year ago.
From that day I knew that family relationships wouldn't be the same, there would be no more happy get-togethers, no more travelling, or vacations. Not that I ever went on any grand vacation with my family, but still, the hopes of one are gone. Holidays have been tough, as they weren't and won't be the same again. Now, with a death and more looming illness with my aunt, I fear more change is yet to come. Perhaps it will all make me stronger- I feel I've already gained some strength. Perhaps the changes are positive- making way for new events, people and traditions. Maybe I have a fear they won't last either, so I'm still hanging on to the memories of the past, when my family was closer, and times were more care-free.
Dave is good for me and he always will be. I am dedicated to him as he is for me. He's helping me with the current family issues. There's more to work on, but hopefully we'll get through and it will be peaceful.
I am mindful. These are the moments I will cherish. I am free. I am happy.
Heaven is all around.
Along with my journal, I brought my guidance cards with me. They are cards that were created by a woman that I met at a recent holistic show. Her name is Denise Crawn, and her main occupation is travelling to Scotland for pilgrimages on an island called Iona. She recently created a book called "Walking Awake", which is filled with beautiful pictures she took of faces that appeared in trees, flowers, etc. Each picture is accompanied by an inspirational quote that is very fitting. Alongside her book, she created cards with similar pictures, each one with a word on them like fear, happiness, sadness, etc….in a way, like tarot cards, but different in that they're more for simple guidance rather than predicting/reading. So, I decided to pick three of them holding the intention in my mind of all the changes that have been going on in my life. I choose playful, surrender and grace. Super interesting because I thought they fit my current situation perfectly. I reflected that playful is what I feel I am, surrender is what I need to do, and grace is what I need in order to surrender, which would then bring me back to complete playfulness. Surrendering isn't a negative in this aspect. Rather a positive where there's thoughts and memories inside of me that I feel that I need to let fall free- memories of how things were with my family, of traditions, of holidays. Everything. Part of me asks why I should surrender? I'm young. My family is still alive. All of these things are totally possible and still should occur. Unfortunately, no matter how much I transform and push to have my parents shift, there's just no getting through. Yet, I'm still hanging on to everything I had with them. It all still feels so close. So alive. For all my life my family was the closest to me. More than friends. More than anyone. Then suddenly they were gone when I chose to leave. Anyone would guess it'd be easy or just a matter of time before they let go of their anger and we would be back together. Of course they would, because most people would certainly do that. They wouldn't hang on to the hatred, the pain of the past.
Now, I'm guessing that surrendering the memories and letting go will be the healthiest for me. There's nothing easy about that. It's not something I ever thought that I would have to choose. But, I fear that if I don't I'll become a slave to something that will never be. That would be my downfall. Instead of surrendering thoughts, I would want to surrender my life. There's no point in living when you feel that life is playing you and there's no way out.
I know I have to hang on. There's a stand that I have to make. For myself, for Dave and for them. Fear is what I have because if I do make a stand, I may feel ecstatic about myself because it's something I've never done before, but if I put all of this effort into making a stand in order for something to change, and nothing does, I will feel that it was a complete waste of time.
There's no way to win. Either way, I'll be torn. I'll never have Dave and my parents because they are unwilling to change. If I would have my parents, I would have to have Dave separate, and that's not fair. None of this is fair. They talk about their heart being shattered, well mine has been torn by them, but they can't admit to it and take responsibility for the hurt they've caused me. I have a sneaking suspicion that my mom feels that somewhere she went wrong with me and that's why she is the way she has been for so long. But, there's nothing that she really did wrong, per say. There's just some things that never worked for me and affected me negatively. Things that I didn't realize until now. Now that I'm older, I have looked back on a lot of things and saw times where my parents weren't there for me. They fought. They drank. Controlled me in a way. There's a bunch. Yes, they raised me well and all of that, but that doesn't mean there wasn't hurt. I don't think that any parent and child relationship goes without both being damaged in some way by the other. Of course this isn't done on purpose, but it definitely happens- just part of the cycle. Dave talked about how there were times that he knew he hurt one of his daughters when they were younger, and he felt terrible and apologized early on. He knew there was no way to go on with the relationship with that blockage in the way. I think that's absolutely beautiful and takes a lot on the parent's part. Not a parent myself, I don't know from experience, but I can definitely imagine.
I know I can't demand or expect an apology from my parents.I guess all I can do is do what I need to do; make that stand and hope for the best. Life is meant to be lived, not survived. I'm currently attending a Landmark seminar where the intention is to live passionately and play the game of life with purpose, grace and ease. I'll save more details for another post, but for now I'll just say that it's helping in a way, but not, because there are just things like Landmark that can't solve the kind of situation I'm in. I already told my parents about it, since there is a huge emphasis on sharing…so I shared and all my mom replied was, "you can go to all the seminars you want, but they'll never help us."
There's so much I don't understand, so much torment. So much I don't know what to say or do.
There's so much I'm learning as I struggle.

These Spiced Mashed Sweet Potatoes are so simple, delicious, and nutritious! They are perfect for a holiday get together or dinner party — just change the quantities based on the amount of people you're having. The spices add flavor without needing sugar, and the milk adds a nice creaminess. Enjoy!
Spiced Mashed Sweet Potatoes
(serves about 12)
- 6 sweet potatoes
- 1 Tbsp cumin
- 1 Tbsp cinnamon
- 1/4 C milk (I recommend 2% or whole — a dairy substitute will also work if unflavored)
Peel and boil the sweet potatoes until tender (cut them into smaller pieces to make them cook more quickly), then drain and place in a bowl.
Mash until desired consistency is reached.
Add in cinnamon, cumin, and milk. Mix and serve warm!

BUDAPEST, Hungary (June 22, 2018) – Departing senior David Kawashima (Studio City, Calif. / North Hollywood) joined a team of 10 fellow SCIAC men's basketball players on a trip to Europe for an exhibition playing tour through three different countries.
The SCIAC All-Stars left California on May 31 and spent four days in Prague, Czech Republic, followed by a quick stay in Bratislava, Slovakia before finishing up the tour in Budapest. Previous SCIAC All-Star teams have visited Italy, Greece, Iceland and Denmark. Kawashima played arguably his best game of the tour in Prague against a club developmental team, chasing down several loose balls while assisting on several big shots to put the game out of reach.
Whittier College Head Coach Mark Jensen, who coached the all-stars overseas remarked at the team's ability to overcome rivalries within the conference to play together while also bonding on a personal level during the week in Eastern Europe.
"Every year I'm amazed at how quickly the guys from different teams and schools come together and bond," Jensen said. "Guys who in many cases really dislike guys from other teams over their years of competition in the conference, but there's a kind of magic that takes place when you do a trip like this – you know, one last chance to play organized, competitive high level basketball."

The air inside your home is contaminated! Stunned? Heating equipments (like, chimneys, heaters, fireplaces and stoves), adhesives and glues, paints, electronic and plastic products, upholstered furniture, new carpets, broken fluorescent light, etc. emit volatile organic compounds, which affects the quality of indoor air. Breathing in contaminated air, on a daily basis, can worsen asthma and result in allergies.
Here are some natural tips to improve the air quality of your home.
1. Adjust Humidity and Temperature
High level of humidity can increase dampness and moisture inside your home, thereby favoring the growth of mold, which deteriorates your health. In order to keep mold and bacteria in control, maintain indoor temperature between 18-22° C and humidity around 40-50%.
2. Wash It Out!
To prevent the growth of mites, wash the pillow cases and bed sheets frequently. Carpets are the big source of dust and detrimental particles, so cleanse them regularly. Use chlorine bleach to remove stains from the mattress.
3. Let the Clothes Dry in Sunlight
Don't dry clothes inside the house. Let the clothes just pulled out from a dry cleaner, to dry outside for at least one hour. The chemicals used in dry cleaning products may affect indoor air quality.
4. Proper Ventilation
The best way to improve indoor air quality is to ventilate your home in a proper way. Gas stove emits nitrogen dioxide which is hazardous to breathe. Thus, while cooking food, open a kitchen window or ventilate the stove directly outside. Avoid ventilation during early morning and late nights because during this time, the outside air comprises lots of pollutants.
5. Rely on Air Purifier
Run air-purifier for 24 hours. If your house is not appropriately ventilated, air purifier may do a great job in decontaminating the inner atmosphere. While purchasing an air purifier, ensure that it generates ozone not more than 0.005 ppm, makes less noise. Make sure that it is equipped with dust collector, and easy to maintain and clean.
6. Grow Indoor Plants
Plants work as a natural filter of air. They also help in maintaining the humidity of the house and guard us against the harmful effects of benzene, formaldehyde and ammonia. Select evergreen plants without flowers (but with thick leaves). Plants give you a feeling of being close to nature, every day.
7. Choose Eco-friendly Interior Design
Adorn your house with ecological interior materials. Choose environment friendly roofing, germ-resistant flooring, non-toxic paints, and natural wallpapers for designing the interior of your house.
8. A Big 'No' to Smoking
Cigarette smoke is a key source of indoor formaldehyde (a toxic colorless gas). Therefore, never allow anyone to smoke inside your home.
9. Don't Run Car in the Garage
Fumes emitted from cars and burning fuels consist of carbon monoxide, exposure to which may cause unconsciousness, nausea, disorientation and weakness. Thus, never run a car or other fuel-burning engines inside the garage.
10. Refrain Toxic Household Products
Minimize the use of synthetic detergents, pesticides, insecticides and disinfectants as they contain harmful chemicals, which may endanger your health. Use natural and herbal soaps, shampoos, hair colors and cosmetic products.
"We must limit our technological interventions into nature long before we have definitive scientific proof of harm. This is the principle of precautionary action, and if we don't adopt it, nature will get along just fine without us." – Peter Montague

Not too much progress today.Yesterday I mistakenly said there were 18 strips on each side, it was actually only 16.
I put on three more rows today so there are now 19, honest. I am now mostly up on the flat top of the stations (actually the bottom of the canoe). The only problem here is gravity. The glue is in the cove of the strips, so if you take too long to get the next strip in place it will want to drip. So, when I squeeze the strip into place it forces the extra glue out like it did before, but, now the glue mostly runs out underneath the strips. I am trying to clean up the glue as I go so I have to reach under to do it. Therefore, the mirror comes into play. I use it to see the glue, and if the joint is good and tight under there.
I only put on three strips on each side so it was a fairly uneventful day. Everything went well. So here is what it looks like tonight.
It takes a lot more screws to hold the ends in place, but that stage will pass soon enough. The ends are getting harder to keep in place so I am putting one row on each side now. I was doing three per side at first. I hope to get out there tomorrow. If I do I will try to get in one last blog update before Christmas.

By Chris Ragsdale
Commissioner, Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference
A comprehensive evaluation of rules governing Division III playing and practice seasons has begun in earnest. We hope to ensure our model for college athletics is sustainable and continues to serve the best interests of our schools and student-athletes.
This review was triggered when a trio of conferences brought forward legislation last year that would have reduced the maximum number of regular-season contests and dates of competition by as much as 10 percent in nearly every Division III sport. Their goal was to address the significant fiscal costs as well as the time demands facing our student-athletes, staffs and facilities.
At the 2015 NCAA Convention, members voted to refer the proposal back to the Division III Management Council's Playing and Practice Seasons Subcommittee for a broader evaluation of all rules pertaining to playing and practice seasons. Our goal is to provide leadership for a comprehensive, deliberate, open and thorough review of the playing and practice seasons. Consequently, our committee has been working to identify concepts for review, including maximum contest and date-of-competition legislation; the non-traditional segments; length of playing seasons; and minimum contest requirements to satisfy sport sponsorship.
Additionally, the committee has identified target audiences – presidents, athletics directors, faculty athletic representatives and student-athletes, among others – to be included in discussions of all the relevant issues. Further, the committee has identified a list of resources, including survey data, that will be used to engage the membership. We plan to develop concepts that will be presented to the Division III Issues Forum at the 2016 Convention.
I look forward to our committee's continued work over the months ahead as we assess the concepts members value most regarding the playing and practice season as well as what they view are the greatest challenges to its sustainability.
Chris Ragsdale is commissioner of the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference and chair of the Division III Playing and Practice Seasons Subcommittee.

Emma Perrier was deceived by an older man on the internet—a hoax that turned into an unbelievable love story.
Emma Perrier spent the summer of 2015 mending a broken heart, after a recent breakup. By September, the restaurant manager had grown tired of watching The Notebook alone in her apartment in Twickenham, a leafy suburb southwest of London, and decided it was time to get back out there. Despite the horror stories she'd heard about online dating, Emma, 33, downloaded a matchmaking app called Zoosk. The second "o" in the Zoosk logo looks like a diamond engagement ring, which suggested that its 38 million members were seeking more than the one-night stands offered by apps like Tinder.
To hear more feature stories, see our full list or get the Audm iPhone app.
She snapped the three selfies the app required to "verify her identity." Emma, who is from a volcanic city near the French Alps, not far from the source of Perrier mineral water, is petite, and brunette. She found it difficult to meet men, especially as she avoided pubs and nightclubs, and worked such long hours at a coffee shop in the city's financial district that she met only stockbrokers, who were mostly looking for cappuccinos, not love.
