|Five-star recruit Rashaan Evans. Via al.com.
It seems the dancing bug has hit college football in Alabama with full force. First Alabama head football coach Nick Saban was captured on camera doing the Electric Slide. Now Auburn head coach
and members of his staff reportedly shared the dance floor with Alabama defensive coordinator Kirby Smart and members of the Crimson Tide coaching staff. Both staffs were on hand for the 80th birthday party of the grandfather of a highly sought-after 5-star recruit.
Auburn High School senior outside linebacker Rashaan Evans has been a target for both Alabama and Auburn. Malzahn and Smart, along with coaching staff members from both school spent the final day of NCAA permitted contact with recruits before National Signing Day attending the birthday party of Evans' 80-year old grandfather at an area hotel. The party had a live band, and coaches from both staffs reportedly hit the dance floor to show off their moves.
Evans' father Arthur Evans described to al.com what went down.
"When we got to the party about eight o'clock it was a packed house at the hotel," Evans told AL.com. "We walked in and the first people we saw was the entire Auburn staff standing there on our left and to my right was Kirby Smart and the Bama staff. I was like 'This has never happened in Auburn before and probably never will again.'"As we went in, we were pulled left and right all night from Auburn to Bama. The coaches shook hands and talked but you could tell they were there for one thing and one thing only. Then the live band started playing and the Alabama and Auburn coaches hit the dance floor. It was unbelievable. I just couldn't stop laughing."
The elder Evans described the goings on as "a football game but it was being played inside the hotel."

Hey peeps, something bad happened.
I arranged to be sent Weekend Box's new mini-weekend box featuring Snazaroo face paints so I could review it, and… well…
So, basically what was sent was a small face painting kit, along with a bunch of small activities and such (y'know, for kids), and since it was addressed to Meg (7), and I hadn't warned Gem beforehand it was coming… Meg got there first.
Now I don't know exactly what happened, all I know is that when I arrived home, Gem wasn't best pleased, the kids were in towels after baths and very little remained of the expected activity kit.
So with that little exciting backstory in hand, I'm going to attempt to review the Weekend Box Snazaroo kit using only the remnants of what can only be described as a disaster and third-hand accounts of the events that occurred.
Obviously other reviews of this product on the parental bloggery web have photos of kids with expertly done face paint smiling in front of a door like some kind of smug little child weasels. I can't do that, see above, and taking a photo of my kids just out of the bath with slightly yellow tinged fingers, like they've been smoking 200 Marlboro Lights, isn't really the kind of content I want to be uploading.
What I have gathered from historical evidence (and googling parent blogs for reviews of the same product by people who have kids with a modicum of self-control) you get a pack of 3 face paints, along with a set of three stamps with which is make a tremendous mess which by some twisted logic means you have to sleep on the sofa for a night. Yellow is definitely one of the colours, as evidenced by the kids' yellow hands. Green is another, as they don't like green and that face paint block remained unused. I had to google what the other colour was. It was red. The colour of rage.
I can imagine these Snazaroo paints are child-friendly and don't stain tables or whatever, although clearly the yellow hands are caused by some kind of shenanigans that got Gem cross. The kitchen was clean after they'd finished though, which is an improvement on the time they made cornflour slime, which we do not discuss.
Look, the leaflet even says it washes off easily. So, the kids must have really gone mad. I do understand why Gem was mad. Not entirely sure why it was my fault, but everything always is, so there you go.
And oh, look! It's Mumsnet rated. That's a good thing, unless you have a completely rational hatred of that damned ninny website. There probably was a competition too, I didn't see it. You could probably win more face paints and nights on the sofa.
The packaging also included all manner of puzzles and stuff, but besides the brief moment of time I had to take photos before Gem furiously dumped it in the bin, I haven't had chance to see what the puzzles and such were, so let's take a guess and assume it's a maze, a spot the difference and a colouring in page. Let me know in the comments if I'm right.
So, if you want to have some sort of unnatural disaster happen at your house, head across to weekendbox and send £2.99 their way. Make sure you have a less angry missus, and maybe some wet wipes. Check out the other Weekend boxes too, which are much less messy and quite possibly would make your missus less angry.
I'm going to go and do some sort of chores and maybe buy her some flowers to try and get back in her good books now.
Love you bye x

Albatron 7950GT Shows Up
Albatron 7950GT Shows Up news post from TweakTown's online news computing and technology content pages
Following the official launch of the 7900GS/7950GT cards from NVIDIA yesterday, Albatron have issued out a press release showing off their new 7950GT based graphics card with 512MBs of DDR3 @ 1400MHz and core clock of 550MHz along with 24 pipelines to boot.
Grab the press release here for full details.
Albatron Technology recently announced the latest arrival in super high quality video and graphics processing - the Albatron 7950GT graphics card. If you can imagine video image quality twice as fine as that of a DVD video, then you understand the performance potential of the 7950GT. The 7950GT's HDCP module allows you to watch super high definition video using the latest H.264 or VC-1 standards and has a potential of reaching 1440P (2560x1440 pixels). The 7950GT does without the expensive HDMI connector and offers a more economical solution for reaching 1080P (1920 x 1080 pixels) high quality video with its Dual Link DVI connector. Not only is video quality significantly enhanced, 3D gaming performance also benefits greatly.

Before I get into all the cuteness that was this event, I wanted share a little about the charities that we worked with for Blogger Brunch. Working Wardrobes empowers men and women to overcome difficult challenges while preparing them to enter the workforce. They not only provide career training and job placement services, they also equip those in their program with work appropriate clothing for interviews. The Princess Project provides free prom dresses to girls in high schools who cannot otherwise afford them. Every blogger who attended brought a bag of clothing to contribute to these charities, and together we were able to collect a ton of great pieces that will be put to good use by those who need it most! Thank you so much to all of you for making such a huge difference in our community!
Blogging has taken me to a place in my life that I never in a million years would have imagined or planned for myself. I absolutely love the feeling of a room full of women empowering each other, supporting each other, and being excited about meeting each other! In those few hours of brunching, it felt like we'd all known each other forever. I'm so thankful for this community, and all the fabulous girls I've met through it! I'm particularly thankful for Bloggers Giving Back, and all the fun we've had planning and organizing this and future events!
Have a terrific Tuesday!

Happy WIAW again guys!!! You may have noticed I gave my blog a little face lift – or not if you've been checkin me out via google reader (RIP) or Feedly:) I switched to Feedly a while ago, but lately I've been cheating on it with bloglovin' -I can't commit. But anyway, face lift! huh? huh? You like it? Yes? No? Maybe? WIAW! Right.
So I've noticed a common theme this week: Simple, cold, (often sweet) Vitamix-lovin food and ALL THE CHOCOLATE! What can I say, the heat brings out the dessert lover in me 🙂
Breakfasts have been a lot of this:
Smoothie Bowl…(mixed berries, spinach, flax, tropical vega, and granola)
Smoothie Bowl…
Aaannnddd another smoothie bowl. This time it was banana-mango-pineapple-ginger, lemon, spinach, and tropical vega topped with strawberries, almonds, and granola -in an almost empty soy yogurt container (edges). Like OIAJ but smoothie in a carton haha
Lunches have been really simple also:
Taco salad (beans and tortilla underneath, so by the end I have a burrito) pre-salsa
Salad with a side of roasted sweet potatoes (roast em in the early morn!)
And then there was this one day where I broke out the pressure cooker and made black beans and quinoa. This, too, is pre salsa. Nice to change it up a bit!!
Dinners have had a little more thought put into them (at least, the ones I take pictures of…because sometimes we are lazy and snack our way through dinner aka a cereal course, a beans/tofu-straight-out-of-the-fridge course, a veggie course…it happens 😉 )
To celebrate National Vegan Pizza Day I made a Hawaiian BBQ pizza! I found a delightful looking cauliflower pizza crust from the Fitchen that Amelia had posted about the other day-I used part almond flour and part chickpea flour, and topped it with a sauce I made from fire roasted tomatoes, tomato paste, bbq sauce, and spices, plus veggies, red and green onion, bbq tempeh and chickpeas, and pineapple. This was delicious! My only change would be to make the crust into individual pizzas and not try to make it one crust, because I spread it too thin and it got crumbly in the middle -but it was still awesome.
Another night I was feeling pretty fancy and decided to use the fresh vegan ravioli we picked up at the Farmers Market, and spiced up my leftover pizza sauce. Okay guys: Fresh Ravioli >>>Frozen. Its awesome, and this was even after being in the fridge for a few days. I can't even imagine what its like made day-of! New favorite pasta right there.
Oh yeah, and all of that sweet, cold, chocolate? Every single snack has been dessert, basically.
Chocolate peanut butter icerageous (name an old coffee place gave to their icy frappucino drinks)
These. So good frozen!
A peach pie smoothie
As well as peach pie ice cream! It came out really good, but I didn't write down any amounts! I could probably guess though, if you guys are interested 🙂
This chocolate chip banana cookie pie. Really good
A Chocolate cake with a frosting I concocted out of cocoa powder, avocado, shelled chickpeas, maple syrup, vanilla, stevia, and espresso powder. Tip! Want a double layer cake but not an entire cake that will last for days on end? Bake a single layer, cut it in half, and frost it regular: You're left with half a cake!! Sooo good
We heard that Tutti Frutti is now offering a vegan soybean froyo, so we had to go check it out! Unfortunately, they were almost out of fresh fruit, and the yogurt was meh -it just tasted sweet to me, no tang! Fortunately I topped mine with every color of the rainbow. It kinda made up for the meh yogurt.
'Cookie dough' soy yogurt, mixed plain with some peanut flour, vanilla, oats and chocolate chips
The Chocolate Cherry Matcha Shake I shared with you yesterday
And of course:
Chocolate avocado pudding. I have no idea how many avocados, nor how much cocoa powder, I've been through this week, but its a little abnormal. Oh well, I think I'm a chocolate person now 😉
Sweet or savory? It really depends on my mood, when I was little I was totally into the savory ( I put salt on watermelon, and ate peanut butter and butter sandwiches. Ew.) But now, I'd say more sweet. Which is weird because I don't like too sweet, just desserty…
Simple or elaborate? I love putting together elaborate plates, so pretty, but 99.9% of the time, I just throw stuff in a bowl or blender and call it good!

This week, Atlanta-based startup, ContactAtOnce! announced that it's added new features to its "presence-aware" marketing service, which it says can help increase lead conversions by as much as 25%!
What is presence-aware marketing? Well, just as Instant Messenger (IM) users can check to see which of their buddies are online, presence-aware-enabled ads, listings and landing pages provide consumers with a visual indicator that someone is available to answer questions. That's right Buzz Marketers – there really is IM in the ad!
ContactAtOnce!'s presence-aware service can help you be more successful at converting Web-surfers into leads. And, along with using visual presence indicators to stimulate more leads, the service facilitates better communication using IM, click-to-call, VoIP and live video. The service also tracks many aspects of performance.
Presence-aware marketing is a huge trend for Buzz Marketers wanting to have more live "conversations" with prospective technology customers. Don't believe it? Well, eBay certainly does. It's integrating Skype's Internet telephony service into its various Web properties including eBay Motors, Rent.com, Kijiji, and, of course, the flagship eBay marketplace. eBay appears to have very high hopes that presence-awareness will make a major contribution to revenues, based on the $2.6 billion it paid for Skype last fall!
Who should tune in to presence-aware services? Buzz Marketers using search engine marketing, who may want to try a little presence-enablement to see if it has an impact on lead conversion rates.
Want to put a taste of IM in your ads? ContactAtOnce! is offering a no obligation demonstration.

Day 361 – South Beach Miami, United States of America
A cold front came over Miami today and although it was sunny, it was way too chilly to enjoy the beach. In lieu of bumming around on the beach, we decided to spend the day enjoying Miami's other attractions (great shopping and delicious cuisine). We did a ton of walking as we explored the South Beach area and ducked in and out of local businesses. I even found a Supercuts where I finally got a much needed haircut. Let's hope the "Arctic blast" passes quickly and tomorrow afternoon is much much warmer.

Branding, The journey of discovery
During our time in business, we have signed off over 800 projects for more than 1000 clients.
Every business wants to be successful, be remembered, and recognised. Companies want to generate repeat business and to live life alongside their customers. The way a company is perceived is essential, not just to you, but to them as well.
Branding Success
The success of a company and their product or service depends not just on the number of sales and profits they make, but also on brand recognition. Any company that wants to be successful pays serious attention to their branding by engaging with customers relating to them on their level.
As designers, we pay a lot of attention to visual branding (the brand's identity). Though a small portion of a company's brand, the visual aspect needs to inspire a feeling. They say first impressions last and the first impression of a brand can give the viewer a feel of what that brand is about without knowing much about it. This feeling that good design creates is what is so exciting about branding. The fact that we can change the way people feel about themselves, their environment and what they do using visual language.
Branding can be seen as the core of a multitude of values, products, services, assets or attributes in the form of an identity. The identity can be the visual manifestation of these values mixed with the desired personality.
So think of your business as a brand when thinking of a name and logo. Think very seriously about colour and feel and research the sector you are in. Look at what other successful businesses like yours are doing for inspiration. The blank canvas is there for you to invent yourself, enjoy it and take your time.
Providing a designer with your own ideas when handing over a brief is a great way of making sure your money is well spent. Have a look at Pinterest a good source of inspiration whilst you write the brief.

Windows 10 free upgrade offer ends on July 29th
300 million of us slurped it for free. Anyone left willing to pay US$119/£99.99?
Microsoft has announced that the free all-you-can-eat Windows 10 upgrade buffet will close forever on July 29, and that after that you'll have to pay for all the fun of its latest operating system.
US$119 is the price Redmond has set for the Home version of the operating system. A sales person in a live chat session on the Microsoft online store told us the UK price will be £99.99 while Australians will pay the quaint price of AU$161.10.
Microsoft always promised the free upgrade was not forever, suggesting it would run for a year. The program's been a success: the company today said 300 million devices now run the OS and it looks to have captured between 15 and 20 per cent market share. Windows 8.x has been the big loser, but even Windows 7 use is declining in business.
Redmond's now hustling the holdouts to upgrade in the few remaining weeks Windows 10 will be gratis.
The upgrade program's been quite generous: even a Netbook that shipped with Windows XP qualified for the program, and Windows 10 made it behave rather better than it had for years.
Microsoft says Windows 10's launch has gone better than any it's done for years, too, with many millions signing up for the services it offers and some six billion queries sent Cortana's way since launch. ®

It seems as soon as something goes wrong in Saudi, people are quick to point the finger of blame at the government, and allegations of corruption are born. A sudden storm last week hit the Holly City of Makkah causing flash floods and wreaked havoc throughout different parts of the city. Minutes after the downfall of rain, people took to social media and posted images of vehicles swept away by the flood waters while spectators watched helplessly. Without any real investigation and within hours of the floods, people on social media were venting their anger, quick to charge the authorities with corruption and complain about a general inability for the government to react.
The main frustration arose from not understanding how 45 minutes of rain could cause such havoc. It seems pointing the figure at the authorities is 'fashionable' in light of the Arab Spring, with many arguing that the authorities have steamrolled ahead with huge projects of glass skyscrapers in Makkah, which they argue have had a detrimental effect on essential infrastructure spending such as sewage system upgrades. But is this even true, or are these just baseless allegations to fuel the fire?
In a sense, people's anger is perfectly natural considering the damage caused, especially as flash floods affects, directly and indirectly, public health. While infectious disease from flooding in the Saudi is limited, health risks from flooding include accidents and injury, significant stress and mental health impacts from the exposure to dirty, sewage and debris, contaminated water and loss of property. This has enraged portions of the Saudi community who cannot comprehend why a country with vast amounts of wealth is unable to deal adequately with prevention measures.
It seems that people were more enraged that this occurred after just 45 minutes of rainfall. However people must not forget that rain is not measured by time but rather the amount of precipitation over a set period of time. It seems people are quick to link last week's flash flooding with the 2009, 2011, and 2012 floods of Jeddah, Tabouk and Riyadh. But we really should judge and treat every event independently.
However, I find it troubling that we find it difficult to assess the causes behind floodwater damages in a more transparent way, and it bothers me that the authorities aren't always forthcoming with facts. What I also find difficult to understand that we have created a habit to point the finger at the authorities whenever something goes wrong. It seems some people have missed the fact that flash floods and the havoc it causes is not a phenomenon that is limited to Saudi Arabia, but a global issue that many developed and rich nations are struggling to grasp solid solutions for.
Over the last couple of years, I have visited and lived in countries that experience torrential rainfall on a regular basis. In Brazil, the 7th richest country in the world, an Amazonian country that has invested in huge sewage systems due to regular rainfall, fell on its knees only a few months ago with the death of 44 of its citizens with flash floods that also left tens of thousands homeless. In the United Kingdom, a country that has spent over $200 Billion US dollars in the last 12 years alone in sewer systems, has found it self struggling year-on-year with flash floods.
It needs to be stressed that blaming the inability of Makkah's infrastructure to drain off floodwaters simply does not stand for three main reasons. The first being the geographical location and composition. Makkah is different to that of the costal town of Jeddah and other cities in the Kingdom that has previously been affected by floods. Essentially the Holy City of Makkah sits in a valley where water naturally drains towards the centre of the city, making it harder to shift the water fast enough. I am not saying this can't be done, but only saying the speed in which water shifts through the pipelines out of the city has a limit.
The second essential point to be made here is the pressure to build and expand the city's infrastructure on new land in order to accommodate over 2 million Muslims at any one time. This subsequently decreases surface areas where water can be absorbed by the soil.
The third reason behind flooding is us, and how we treat our planet. A cause we often exclude maybe because we are directly to blame. With a population of under 30 million, Saudi Arabia ranks 12th in the world based on fossil-fuel CO2 emissions, we are beaten in the list by some of the worlds most populated areas including China, the United States, India and the European Union.It is clear that the world climate system is definitely warming, and humans have influenced that climate change. But is this enough to convince an angry public? Unfortunately, I don't think so.
Whilst I do not disagree that there could be a more transparent system of governance when it comes to government spending on infrastructure projects, I do think we need to be slightly more objective when reacting to natural disasters.

Ratak Elite Hosting Service is a high-end fully managed hosting service to provide maximum security, ease of use & Quality of Service (QoS).
A dedicated Hosting Service, Dedicated Server, or Managed Hosting Service is a type of Internet hosting in which the client leases an entire server not shared with anyone else. This is more flexible than shared hosting, as organizations have full control over the server(s), including choice of operating system, hardware, etc. There is also another level of dedicated or managed hosting commonly referred to as complex managed hosting. Complex Managed Hosting applies to both physical dedicated servers, Hybrid server and virtual servers, with many companies choosing a hybrid (combination of physical and virtual) hosting solution. There are many similarities between standard and complex managed hosting but the key difference is the level of administrative and engineering support that the customer pays for – owing to both the increased size and complexity of the infrastructure deployment. The provider steps in to take over most of the management, including security, memory, storage and IT support. The service is primarily proactive in nature. Server administration can usually be provided by the hosting company as an add-on service. In some cases a dedicated server can offer less overhead and a larger return on investment. Dedicated servers are most often housed in data centers, similar to colocation facilities, providing redundant power sources and HVAC systems. In contrast to colocation, the server hardware is owned by the provider and in some cases they will provide support for operating systems or applications.[citation needed]
Using a dedicated hosting service offers the benefits of high performance, security, email stability, and control. Due to the relatively high price of dedicated hosting, it is mostly used by websites that receive a large volume of traffic.
Managed hosting service: the user gets his or her own Web server but is not allowed full control over it (user is denied root access for Linux/administrator access for Windows); however, they are allowed to manage their data via FTP or other remote management tools. The user is disallowed full control so that the provider can guarantee quality of service by not allowing the user to modify the server or potentially create configuration problems. The user typically does not own the server. The server is leased to the client.
No customer reviews for the moment.

I believe everyone deserves safety and the opportunities to pursue what makes them satisfied and happy. Through 25+ years of professional counseling experience, I have helped numerous people through their journey of healing from the past and learning to live the kind of life they wanted. My professional experiences have included clinical supervision, working in private practice, community mental health agencies, adult inpatient treatment, residential settings, working with foster/adoptive families, and conducting mental health evaluations for the Probate Court.
I specialize in working with adult survivors of narcissistic parents and other childhood abuses. I recognize that each person has their own history, their own fears, and also their own dreams. I take a personal approach in working with each of my clients and address the individual concerns that are a priority as identified by each person. I help individuals resolve issues of grief/loss, depression, anxiety, and adjusting to major life transitions. I help people that were raised in dysfunctional families or experienced other kinds of trauma, to understand their responses to the trauma, and to develop healthier behaviors and improved self-care. I truly enjoy helping others identify their feelings and develop healthier behaviors in their relationships in their own self-care.
I am a graduate of Murray State University and Troy University. Originally from Ohio, I have made the Montgomery area my home during the past 30 years. I enjoy the summers and the mostly warmer winters. I also enjoy being outside during most any season, spending time with my family, and playing with my grandchildren. I enjoy my cats and my dog, and deciding what flowers to plant each year.

Having a trading plan is very important especially if you want to profit from trading business.
Here are the reasons why you need to have a trading plan:
1. Having a trading plan keeps traders in the right direction.
Uniformity is important in having your own routine in trading, this let traders to really measure the success of their trading business.
If the trader has a very nice trading system but then they always break their own rules, the trading system can get them to nowhere fast.
Making a trading system is really helpful but only as long as traders will stick with it.
2. Trading should be considered as business and remember that businesses that are successful always have a plan.
A plan keeps a good business going. A plan gives businesses goals to achieve and a direction on where they want to go and plans exactly what they want to accomplish.
Plans set goals for businessmen, and these plans make them want to continue and make it better.
After understanding that having a trading plan is important now it's time to make your trading plan. Then, what should be in your own trading plan that can make your trading business successful?
1. A trading system
A trading system is important to have and to be included in your trading plan as well. Your system should be well tested enough and you should have at least tried it on a demo account to see its performance.
In your trading system the following should be included: the time frame that you use, your own criteria for your entry points and exit points and the risk you have during these trading hours. You should also include the currency pair that you use in trade as well as the amount of wins and losses you have.
2. Trading Routine
This is another important part of your plan, since this will identify three important factors in trading: first is the analysis you did in the market and the plan that you make for trades, second is the actual look out you did at the market when trading and third is the evaluation from your actions during your trades.
3. Mindset
This is one of the difficult things to set your self into in trading. As a trader you must separate your emotions from your decisions.
The following are tests that you can make for yourself to separate your emotions from your trading character:
> See what the charts are showing and not how you want to see it.
> No matter how biased you are you should make sure that you trade with your eyes on how you see things and not with your emotions.
> Do not get "revenge" on the market if you lose your money. It will not do you any good.
> If you lose on a trade don't be hard on yourself. Instead learn from your past mistakes.
4. Know your weaknesses
Everybody has their own weaknesses and it is important to know yours as well. People often do not want to talk about their weaknesses but it is important that you recognize them and do something about them.
5. Your Goals
If your goal is to earn a lot of money, this is not a good goal at all. Think about what you really want and what you really want to happen with your trading career. Envision yourself with what you really want and learn to achieve your goal.
6. Have a trading Journal
Keep a trading journal and record all your transactions whether they have a positive outcome or a negative one.
Having a journal will make you evaluate your trading transactions. You will get something from all your losses and you can keep up the ones you benefited from.

When someone mentioned Emani Minerals to me, I kept doing the thing that old people do, "What? Armani? What? Harmani? Wha? Primarni?".
But no, it's Emani.
And what a cute product they have here. The Emani Hybrid Cream Colours are a rather interesting little thing, for the eyes and lips (not this particular shade (O Behave) I have though):
I like the fact that they are talc and paraben free! Now on to the product that looks like a powder but is a cream…
It is quite simply, beautiful to look at. O Behave is a deep blue with a medium deep blue, with white and then some sparkles. I can't take away from the fact it looks stunning.
I seriously feel the texture is off though. It's not quite a cream. It's not quite a powder. It's a bit difficult to apply because of this.
It's supposed to be a cream, but to me, it's a very dense, thick powder which could, with a bit of work, become creamy. I hand to rub a while to warm the product up and when I got some off, you can see how it is a little flaky:
I found the pigmentation on my finger was much better than the pay off I got on my eyes or even for this swatch (which whilst is VERY pretty, is not anywhere near as strong as in the pan):
You can get all kinds of colours from this palette, use more white, or use more dark blue etc. I do think it's a very fun product and I would be lying if I said I didn't want to try more (cos I'm like that) but I'm not blown away by the texture of this.
On my eye – yes it creases and this is the result after using 2 layers – not so pigmented:
So beautiful to look at but I can't figure the texture out. It would be better if it was creamier OR a powder shadow so I could decide what to do with it!

Finding your way around the cell
Our annotated diagram shows you what goes where
Illustration © Glen McBeth
- Plasma membrane (or cell surface membrane): a phospholipid bilayer that contains cholesterol and proteins. It is a fluid layer that surrounds the cell and enables it to communicate with its neighbours and detect and respond to changes in the environment. It also acts as a physical barrier, controlling what can enter and exit the cell.
- Extracellular matrix: the material in between cells that holds tissues together, usually made of scaffolding proteins such as collagen. Important for cell-to-cell signalling.
- Nucleus: the information centre of the eukaryotic cell, where the DNA is stored, replicated and copied into messenger RNA (mRNA) through transcription.
- Nuclear envelope: double membrane that separates the contents of the nucleus from the cytoplasm.
- Nuclear pores: gaps in the nuclear envelope that allow substances to move in and out of the nucleus.
- Nucleolus: part of the nucleus that produces ribosomes.
- Endoplasmic reticulum (ER): an extensive network of membranes. Rough ER is studded with ribosomes and is a site where proteins are made, folded and moved to the Golgi apparatus. The roles of smooth ER include lipid and steroid synthesis and drug detoxification.
- Ribosomes: molecular machines, built from ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and protein, that make new proteins from mRNA through a process called translation. They are found as 'free ribosomes' in the cytoplasm and bound to the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
- Golgi apparatus: one of the wondrously complex membrane systems in the cytoplasm, which modifies, packages and directs newly made proteins to where they are needed.
- Cytoplasm: everything in the cell outside the nucleus; a viscous aqueous fluid (cytosol) containing water, proteins, other organic and inorganic molecules, and organelles. This is the site of many biochemical reactions.
- Mitochondria (singular: mitochondrion): rod-shaped bodies in the cytoplasm that supply chemical energy to the rest of the cell. They are surrounded by a double membrane (envelope).
- Microfilaments: these are made from repeating actin subunits. Responsible for cell movement and changes in shape, and make muscle contraction possible. The thinnest component of the cytoskeleton.
- Vacuole: internal bags, surrounded by a membrane, which cells use for storing food or waste.
- Microtubules: small, tubular assemblies of protein, made from repeating tubulin subunits, which help maintain the cell's internal structure and move organelles and cytoplasm using molecular motors. Part of the cytoskeleton.
- Centrioles: a pair of organelles that organises microtubules into spindles on which chromosomes are separated when cells divide.
- Lysosomes: membrane-bound organelles that are the cell's rubbish disposal and recycling units; contain hydrolytic (digestive) enzymes.

You are looking at the editor's website for the Critical Finance Review (CFR). The editor is Ivo Welch (UCLA).
The CFR publishes leading academic research in all areas of financial economics. It is a high-prestige peer-reviewed free "boutique" journal. It only publishes 5-10 papers per year, but with paper quality comparable to the Journal of Finance, Journal of Financial Economics, and Review of Financial Studies. The CFR's ultimate goal is to publish 10-15 papers per year, never 100—and to publish some more unconventional and interesting papers. In some ways, the CFR seeks to be as good but run differently than other outlets. It wants to be eclectic. Its special niche are critiques, but the CFR publishes many non-critiques.
NOW Publishers
The journal also maintains its primary institutional website at NOW Publishers (Zac Rolnik), at www.critical-finance-review.org. Please ask your institution to subscribe. The price is reasonable.
The CFR itself not a non-profit company. Actually, it is not a for-profit company, either. It exists because the original editor thought that the existing journals let many good papers fall through the cracks—especially but not only critiques. The editor pays the expenses of the journal and has his reputation and money on the line. The editor's long-term intent is to donate the journal to the profession (subject to making its existing publisher [NOW] whole).
I (Ivo Welch) have been asked a few times why the CFR did not start as an association journal. The reason was nimbleness. No rules, committees, consensus, and the like. The AFA and SFS are two great organizations (and I sit on the board of the former and love the folks running the latter), and they do many things incredibly well, but they also have drawbacks. The difficulties in reaching agreement among many faculty are best illustrated by the multi-year-long process and eventual failure to adopt a data availability policy. At the CFR, I simply decreed it. I could do so only because the CFR is small and the existence of the SFS and AFA afford me the luxury to be a marginal player. As a profession, we would not want our two main association journals (JF and RFS) to make decisions like I do at the CFR.
The American Finance Association has been especially supportive of the CFR efforts. In addition, I have offered to donate the journal to the AFA, now that it has been established. In any case, I thank all the folks involved

The 1968 protest song Prayer for Marta, by Jindřich Brabec a Petr Rada,
made famous by singer Marta Kubišová, has won Czech Radio's Hit of the
Century poll.
The winner was announced at a concert on Old Town Square marking the centenary of the birth of Czechoslovakia at which Czech and Slovaks pop singers and bands performed the most popular songs of the past century.
Česká písnička by Karel Hašler placed second and Škoda lásky, the famous beer barrel polka by Jaromír Vejvoda, came third.
From January till May Radio Prague listeners had the opportunity to hear 100 songs which have gone down in the history of Czechoslovakia and the Czech Republic. And listeners from all over the world helped us to select the best songs every week. Today we bring you the overall winner, a 1947 song called 'Say It to Me Quietly'.
Czech Radio's Hit of the Century poll has reached the final. Since January listeners in the Czech Republic and elsewhere have been choosing from among the best songs released in the Czech lands from 1918 to the present day. Why does the "Czech century" begin in that year? It's very simple. On 28 October 1918 Czechoslovakia declared its independence from the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. While Czechoslovakia as the common state of Czechs and Slovaks has ceased to exist, Czechs regard 1918 as the start of their modern statehood. Symbolically, a number
This is our final segment of our series Hit of the Century presenting 100 songs which have gone down in the history of Czechoslovakia and the Czech Republic. On Czech Radio's web pages you can find a poll, in which you can vote for the best hit from the past century. The last song of the series if from the year 2017.

MAP Systems was approached by the client for aerial image stitching requirements. Besides they needed us to design a complete 360 degree virtual tour. In additional to these, the client demanded us to add hot spots so as enable a viewer to click on some areas and get a view from the ground level to have a better perception.
The client selected us to do the job as we were referred by one of our previous clients for whom we did a similar job fantastically.
The level of knowledge demanded by these types of works is quite high and you can't simply allocate any one among the workforce to carry out such tasks. There are only a few companies that can handle the complexities involved. Stitching pictures together from mobile sources such as a drone is never easy. Even the minutest of alignment issues might adversely affect the actual purpose of drone aerial photography.
Though the client approached us after we were being referred to him by another client, we still offered them an absolutely free trial so as to keep them more comfortable. They were happy with the sample and post approval, we assigned 7 among the most experienced and talented image editors we had in our team. By making use of software programs such as Autopano Giga and PTGui, they carried out the needed stitching as per the specific client guidelines. Quality concerns were completely eliminated by making our QC team conduct multiple rounds of quality checks to ensure that the stitching was seamless. Post that, the photos were uploaded on a web browsing- supported video player for creating the needed virtual tour.
Our services were competent and cost effective. The client was able to considerably reduce their cost in-house. High quality images were obtained at the most reasonable rates. The accuracy level was almost 99% percent with respect to the stitching done. All pending works of the client were cleared and the client could start a new business relationship which is going smooth and productive till date.
We assured that the client enjoyed complete peace of mind and security throughout the process. For the same, each and every designer was provided with a separate username and password. Proper legal documents were signed to reassure the same. If you are interested to know about drone image editing or any other image editing-related needs, you can send your requirements to us.
If you too have any drone image processing related requirements, reach us anytime.

A Personal Achievement of mine is, I finished High School with my CNA certificate.
Hi my name is clarissa Adams I'm a single mother of one and been caregiving for 10 years now. I chose this career because enjoy creating bonds with clients and their family and this is also a job that has to be done. I used to work in a nursing home and did not like the way the clients were being treated and I felt like no matter how much I report anything even though I will if I see something wrong its up to the caregivers to make sure that they show compassion and be considerate of the clients and do their job properly. I understand that sometimes the family just cant be there for their loved one and it completely doesn't mean they don't love them that's where I come in I have no issue with working over I'm very reliable I often sacrifice my holidays for clients but I consider them family as well. Most of all I would love to get to know you the caretakers of my future clients. I'm very polite and have plenty of experience in hospice care and basic needs care. I would love for you to get to know me better in person if you choose me. Thank you for taking the time to consider me God Bless.
My personality traits that makes me a great caregiver are having (Patience), (compassion), (attentiveness), (dependability), & trustworthiness! What attracted me to being a caregiver was caring for my disabled sister before she passed away. I enjoy making my clients happy and all around making there day! Cleaning for them and just making sure they have no worries! A personal achievement I am proud of was providing exceptional palliative care to elderly patients, provided them with a happy and comfortable life.
Over 6 years of caregiving experience. I really got into homecare after my son was in an accident. While being trained to care for him I decided this was something that I really enjoyed it doing. I spent a lot of my time with great-grandmother in the south and by her being elderly; I learned a lot from her and also assisted her in the kitchen where I took up a love for cooking. I love caring for people and being a companion when needed; making a client as comfortable as possible and providing grooming can really make a difference in how one is able to cope with their day. I don't mind going the extra to make a person feel special, this is just they way that I was raised.
I absolutely love elders they are so adorable and sweet and kind and i just love being around them and helping them when they cant do things on they own. I never asked or thought about being a caregiver at the age i started but i liked it anyways because it was with my grandma till she died but i had other family members too and every since then any time i had of my own i would help willingly.
1. I always enjoyed volunteering and helping the elderly and disabled growing up in a nursing home and making a difference 2. Helping others and my heart feels good at the end of the day I enjoy it 3. When I worked as an Activity Assistant in a nursing home I was asked to join a family whos family member enjoyed me conducting activities at his final breath as he passed it was an honor and I felt happy that I was able to hold his hand as he went to heaven 4. Quiet, Shy, late 40s who lives alone and likes this kind of job and helping others. I enjoy music, reading, cats, and walking. My passion is to help others stay their homes and for over a year I have struggled to make ends meet and find this type of work. Iam reliable, hardworking, willing to learn, and compassionate. Please Iam in dire need of income and I want to be given a chance to work and stay in this line of work. Iam willing to relocate for a live in position as I need work. My dream is to be a live in caregiver and Im willing to relocate as there is no state budget and home care agencies are not hiring, so Iam willing to relocate to the South Suburbs of Chicago. Please contact me thank you I need the work as Iam not living my dream. Thank you
I became a caregiver about 4 years ago I absolutely enjoy working with the elderly and love being there for them physically mentally and emotionally I have a very loving vibe and also very caring I'm very outgoing and easy going I love to talk with the elderly people and see how there life was growing up and just being there for someone for them to talk to so they won't feel alone. Although every day can be different and challenging in many ways I learned how to cope with certain things as I've grown over the years in the healthcare field. I'm very friendly and someone you can trust to get the job done the right way to take care of your loved one.

New York
New York is one of the 50 states of the United States and was one of the original Thirteen Colonies, which were the first thirteen states to make up the US. New York is in the northeastern United States, bordered by Lake Ontario and Canada on the north, Lake Erie and Canada on the west, Pennsylvania on the west and south, Vermont, Massachusetts, and Connecticut on the east, and New Jersey on the south and west.

New York was originally New Netherland, started by the Dutch Empire in the early 17th century. Late in the century, it surrendered to an English fleet during the Anglo-Dutch Wars and became part of the British Empire. About half the Dutch colony was given to neighboring English colonies. The Battle of Long Island, Battle of Saratoga, and other important battles of the American Revolution were fought in New York and it joined the new United States.
The United States Census Bureau says that, as of 2005, New York had the third most people (population) in the United States, after California and Texas. New York's estimated population is 19,297,729.[9]
Many famous people were born in New York. Such as Donald Trump, Lindsay Lohan, Alicia Keys, Adam Sandler, and many more.
The biggest city in New York is also called New York, located in the south-eastern part of the state and built on the Hudson River; it is by far the biggest city in the U.S.. Part of New York City is on Long Island, a large island in the Atlantic Ocean, and another part of it is on Staten Island, which is to the southwest of Manhattan, the central business district. Most people living in New York state live in the New York metropolitan area, one of the world's biggest metropolitan areas, which also includes part of eastern New Jersey.
The larger part of New York, north and northwest of the metropolitan area, is called "Upstate New York". Cities in this part of New York include Buffalo, the state's second largest city, Rochester, Syracuse, and the state capital of Albany. These places became cities because of the Erie Canal. Between 1788 and 1797, the Legislature moved the state capital around between Albany, Kingston, Poughkeepsie, and New York City. Albany became the permanent capital from 1797.[10]

To be considered an organic food, the product must pass through a stringent certification process conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Organic food is considered to be free of synthetic chemicals, genetically engineered materials, sewage sludge or irradiation. According to the Natural Resources Defense Council, foods labeled organic and bearing the USDA organic seal must contain at least 95 percent organically grown ingredients. The remaining 5 percent must be ingredients the USDA has approved for organic farming. Foods containing 70 percent organic ingredients are labeled "Made With Organic Ingredients."
Organic Fruits
Fruits grown organically have been shown to have higher levels of antioxidants and similar nutritive properties than those grown commercially with genetic engineering or the use of pesticides. The Organic Trade Association suggests that in sharp contrast to commercially grown fruit, organically grown adds to the retention of valuable nutrients. In a two-year study at Washington State University, organic fruits such as strawberries were shown to taste better, have a longer shelf life and carry higher levels of vitamin C and phenolic compounds, which protect against cancer.
Organic Vegetables
Like fruit, organic vegetables can also have significantly greater health benefits than commercially grown types. Explanations for the health benefits include better growing practices and more nutrient-dense products. The Organic Trade Association further explains that vegetables from commercial farmers have higher concentrations of pesticides, chemically-treated fertilizers, antibiotics and growth hormones. While helping the farmer reduce waste and increase productivity, these chemicals have also been linked to environmental concerns, cancer clusters and nearly twice the prevalence of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children exposed to abnormally high levels of pesticides.
Whole Grains
Organic whole grains can include brown rice, barley, millet, quinoa, rye, buckwheat, spelt, wheat bran and berries and any other grain that has been minimally processed and meets certification standards. Like other organics, whole grain products are generally more nutritious due to their higher fiber content, low fat content and the abundance of vitamins and minerals they contain. Grain Foods Foundation adds that whole grain foods are an excellent source of complex carbohydrates that provide energy to the body while aiding in weight management, immunity, balance in the nervous system, their ability to regulate the digestive system, lower blood pressure and keep cholesterol in check.
Organic Meat and Poultry
Organically-grown animals are farmed using natural methods. The Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific's "Guidelines for Humane Handling, Transport and Slaughter of Livestock" suggests that when animals experience extreme duress this produces a poor meat quality and abnormally high pH levels in the end product. For certification by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, farmers must uphold free range practices to decrease stress on the animals, allow for better living conditions and feed them only certified organic food and grass.

Musical Success
Mrs Petersons is delighted to report that the youngest member of the Stoneleigh Youth Training Orchestra is one of our very own Year 4 pupils who successfully auditioned for a place - a fantastic achievement! She joins many keen, talented musicians from a wide range of schools who come together to play at the weekend alongside a few familiar, older faces from our school as well. We look forward to hearing all about it.
In Assembly the other morning we were treated to a fabulous piece of piano playing by a Year 3 pupil who astounded us by playing without any music. She had learnt the piece by Beethoven so well it just flowed from her fingers effortlessly. Well done - practice really does make perfect!

Before you entered this physical time and space your soul made an agreement. Before you came into human form, your soul had specific purpose or destiny that it had agreed to fulfil. This destiny was written and is your Soul Contract.
When my brother was born I was nine years old.
I remember coming back home from school and my mom was running upstairs at 3pm still in the same state that I left her when I was going to school. I remember this so clearly because as a nine-year old to see your mom so overwhelmed and not with it – well it left a deep impression. I remember she was wearing her night-gown and it was either green or pink bathrobe. She was running up and down between rooms upstairs and told me she has not eaten yet. I didn't understand why or show she could have allowed herself to not get dressed or eat.
I was told many times before and after my brother was born that my mom and her brother had a really good relationship. I remember clearly making my mind up that I would never fight with my brother because I didn't want to be THAT sister. I wanted to be helpful and be a guardian for him. I vowed I would take care of him and make sure he was always safe. In a nine year old I translated that to being more than just a sister.
At this age I also realized how much energy and time a child takes. At a young age I questioned why would ever I want to have kids if this is how much time and effort it took? I vowed that I wouldn't have any children till my brother was independent enough that he didn't need me. This was my soul contract I created in the mind of a nine year old.
Throughout his growing up, I've helped in his development. One of the most significant ones was when he was in grade nine. I don't remember the exact timeline, but was had a one bedroom apartment, he was not doing well in school, and I got a frantic phone call that I had to do something to make it better. My brother ended up living with us for a few months. It was a hard time but we were all going to push through this. Even when he had given up on himself in ways that I can even begin to describe, there was no bloody way he was going to be able to push me away. I wouldn't give up on him. If I had to take him kicking and screaming I would have. This taught me a lot about simply not giving up on people and especially family.
I don't even remember at what point, but somewhere around him entering University, he got mad at me and finally told me, I need you to be my sister and not my mom. That period took some adjusting as I realized how much in my own behaviour I would 'mother' him and that wasn't ok. He was right. This also taught me how much we just fall into prescribed roles and how important it is to take a step back and reflect.
I'm so proud of him for pushing through and graduating. It was just amazing just seeing him finish.
It actually coincided this year when I started taking fertility treatments seriously and I committed to them and the process.
He is launched and I had graduted along with him and was ready to bring a child into this world. Completing whatever there is left in my soul contract.
What is a soul contract?
Essentially, your Soul Contract is the deal you made with yourself in order to help you grow and evolve to a higher state of awareness but, you are not alone. You are also given some help along the way by your guides and angels.
In order to fulfil your Soul Contract you are also assigned a set of spirit guides, angels and people to help you. If you are open enough, you will constantly receivesigns, messages and clues as to whether you are following your highest or destined path.
One of the best physical clues that you are following your Soul Contract or highest path is when synchronicity occurs or strange coincidences happen that lead you from one thing to the next.
Another good sign that you are following your highest path is when you seem to meet the right people at the right time who can offer you information, guidance and assistance when you are in doubt or wanting to learn.
There is some debate over whether or not you can break your Soul Contract. Some argue that everything you do is part of your contract, and others believe that you can wander off your chosen path. But was breaking your contract part of the deal?
I don't think its possible to really ever break your contract, but there can be moments when your choices don't always flow with your destiny. When this occurs you may experience confusion, negativity or even physical ailments, but remember all of this is sometimes necessary to help you naturally align with and move back into the flow.
Think of your Soul Contract as the mountain you were placed on- the mountain you were destined to climb. You can choose how to get to the top, you can choose which way you want to climb; each of these choices bringing about a completely different experience, but the destination will always be the same. Your mountain will continue to grow, shift and evolve as you do, but your purpose here in human form will always remain.

Mini Slim Mill & Gaggia Classic – Tips & Tricks
The Gaggia Classic I own is an older model (the IEC power plug doesn't have a ground) that I bought for less than half price used. And so far so good, it's been a good appliance. I find I can make a couple of espressos a day with it and I'm happy. The problems come when you want to start comparing those espressos with a what a good barista at a good coffee shop can pull. I don't think they'll ever be the same, but there are few things a Gaggia Classic owner can do to eek out better espresso.
1) be patient. when I get up in the AM I turn it on. Make sure the portafilter basket is clean and purge about 6 ounces of water out of the brew head, making sure the brew head is clean. Then do something else for 10-15 minutes. That's how long it takes to warm up; 20 minutes is probably even better.
2) grinding with the Hario Mini Slim Mill Ceramic is a little futzy as the grind adjustment doesn't seem to be particularly fine (i.e. the steps are too coarse and the ceramic burrset is small) but still it works. For $35 or whatever, it gets you much closer to consistent espresso grounds than anything else that costs less than $100 or more. Yes, a Mazzer would be nice, or even just a Rocky, but I can't justify it. So, with each bag of espresso I buy I have to find that sweet spot in the grind where it doesn't choke the machine. And it's true with hand grinding, the more you do it the more of a "feel" you have for what grind you're getting. Grinding a double shot takes less than 3 minutes, by hand.
3) temperature surfing the Gaggia means waiting until the right hand "Brew Ready" light clicks back on (you can hear the relay) and wait about 20 seconds. From doing tests I found this to be near the highest spot in the temperature of the boiler. Yes, a PID would help or a bigger dual boiler machine would be nice as well. But as far as the law of diminishing returns here, I'm sticking with what I have, and so temperature surfing the Gaggia it is.
4) So, you've waited about 15 minutes or so, you've ground your beans to something you know won't quite choke the little Gaggia and your brew light has just flicked back on, you count down, and now you flip the brew switch and enjoy some espresso. Hopefully your shot takes around 30 seconds to pull with a good solid 5-7 seconds at the beginning with infusion, the crema should be heady, rising above your 2oz line. The best shots I've gotten from this machine have no sourness. For whatever reason, the small boiler and little pressure pump of this machine often has sour shots, but when you pull a good one, it's not sour – it's smooth. Good luck.
