I feel a little like I'm confessing to having an affair!
David over on Warhammer Tau put out a call for help. He wanted contributors. Now, Warhammer Tau is a blog ive read regulalry in the past, and its a fantastic resource, so I offered to help, and I'm happy to say tht, despite my ramblings on AA, David agreed!
So expect to see some content over on WT from me from time to time. I'll still be posting here of course, but there might be more Space Marine content here, and a little more Tau content on WT.
However, for completeness I want to finish of my initial thoughts on the Tau codex here as well, so I'll be posting up some of my Warhammer Tau content here, so all my ramblings can be found in one place.
So, next up is a post on Marker Lights and the various ML platforms in the new codex, and then I want to go through my thought process on a couple of lists, to see if I can come up with something that will work in the new 'dex.
Marker Light post soon.

If you ride seriously, eat seriously.
I am not a dietician and all recommendations are just my recommendations. Of course you should use your own judgement and consult your physician with any concerns you have.
It has often been repeated that "variety is the spice of life." I agree. I was very fortunate to be raised by the kind of parents that made me sit at the table until I ate the broccoli on my plate. They also gave "no-thank-you-servings." This was a clever invention of my mother's that I intend to pass on to my offspring. If my siblings or I were to turn down a particular dish with a polite, "no, thank you." My mother would give us a small serving regardless.
As we know it often takes several attempts before we acquire a taste for a new food. As a serious cyclist it is imperative to feed our bodies with the nutrients it needs. We can not live on protein bars alone. As you add in healthier foods and reduce the less healthful kind your body will begin to replace your cravings. Perhaps soon you will want a piece of fruit after your meal, rather than a slice of cake.
If you have the problem of maintaining weight, rather than losing it, you are not alone. So many people today lead such sedentary lives that it seems few have this problem. Cyclists on the other hand expend so many calories that it can at times be hard to keep up. Don't cut out too much if you are losing weight. Maybe you should have that slice of cake.
Complex carbohydrates are the best source of energy for physical activity. Whole grains provide more fiber and nutrients. Aim for six to eleven daily servings. The USDA food pyramid also recommends three to five servings of vegetables. Be sure to vary your veggies. Think in the terms of eating from each color group.
Try to eat two to four servings of fruit a day. Two to three daily dairy products are recommended. Calcium is especially important for women cyclists. Your two to three servings of meat could be replaced with nuts, legumes, or eggs. Legumes can be counted either as vegetable or protein. Sugars and fats should be used sparingly. You can replace sugar and fat with healthier alternatives. Honey has properties that have been thought to boost the immune system. Olive oil and the fats in nuts and fish are healthier alternatives.
Protein is especially important to a cyclist. After a long day cycling your muscle tissue has been damaged. In order for your body to repair that tissue and rebuild stronger muscles, it is imperative that your intake of protein is high enough. A cyclist may need twice the protein that another person of similar size would need. Not getting enough protein could result in fatigue, anemia, and a reduction in aerobic capacity.
Iron deficiency may be a problem for cyclists tying to keep their weight down. Some doctors recommend that for every 1,000 calories of your diet, you should consume five milligrams of iron. However an active cyclist consuming 2,000 calories a day may need the iron recommended for those on a 3,000-calorie diet.
This should be of special concern to vegetarians or those who eat limited quantities of red meat. Try combining sources of iron with vitamin C for better absorption. Avoid things that can hinder absorption such as wheat bran, tea, antacids, and calcium phosphate supplements. Try adding spinach, raisins, turnip tops, and beet greens to your diet.
Vitamin A or retinol produces beta-carotene. It promotes cell development and the growth of bones and teeth. You probably also know its benefits when it comes to night vision. Vitamin B1 or thiamin provides the body with energy. Alcohol will decrease the rate of vitamin B absorption. Vitamin B5 or pantothenic acid also aids in energy. Vitamin C is vital for connective tissues and the functioning of red blood cells. It also acts as an anti-oxidant.
Take a quality multivitamin, multi-mineral dietary supplement. This will not replace your lapses in judgement or occasional indulgences, but it will supplement your overall nutrition needs. Look for a supplement that is age and gender specific. Find one that is made to the U.S. Pharmacopoeia standards for "quality, purity and potency standards." Be sure that your supplement is lab tested to dissolve in 60 minutes or less.
Commit to cycling seriously and eating seriously. Mind your ABCs and don't deprive your body of the essentials. When your body is treated right you'll look, feel, and ride better.

So there's a shortage of cloud computing professionals ?
By AltaFlux Corporation, Jun, 25 2012, in Cloud
Industry events and insights to grow your business, straight from the expertsSee Overview
As cloud computing continues to move forward in leaps and bounds, it would seem that (according to various news reports) there might not be enough personnel out there with the adequate cloud training to "handle the load". While this is not really good news for companies, it is certainly a boon for those willing to get certified in cloud computing.
If you think back to your days in the classroom; remember the lecture about how supply and demand works? Simply put, the less there is of something, the more inherent value it generally has; and if that item / resource is in high demand, well, it is obviously going to be worth even more. This more or less illustrates the current state of the cloud computing service / IT / specialist industry. The demand for larger numbers of highly skilled and qualified personnel with the ability to service cloud infrastructure(s) is on the rise, big time. If you're involved in IT, as a certified professional, you can't afford to pass up this awesome opportunity.
One of the things that make cloud computing such an important area of emergent technology is its ability to create better internal and external systems for doing business. Through the power of the cloud it is possible to essentially do more, with less; in other words, it's much more efficient than its predecessor (grid computing). Aside from stemming energy costs (which we'll cover in just a bit), cloud computing allows an organization to establish much better systems for internal communications, as well as the rapid deployment of services (multiple instances) with nearly unlimited computing power. This is because a "cloud" is more or less just a giant super computer, with a special type of infrastructure which allows it to run a multitude of parallel operating systems. Of course this is an oversimplification, but the fact remains that cloud computing is as much a computing solution as it is a networking solution.
Arguably, it is usually the idea of saving a bundle on annual energy costs which entrances most organizations into exploring the concept of adopting cloud-based technologies. Grid computing, which is still the industry standard model, is completely reliant on a power / energy delivery system which is continuous. This is to say that regardless of what "work" or processes are being carried out on the hundreds, if not thousands of machines which an organization owns, they must (and will) be supplied with a constant stream of electricity. Given the fact that a majority of these machines are usually not active or even regularly used most of the time, this is a huge drain on income for any business and is basically money being spent that achieves nothing and offers nothing in return for its expense.
Needless to say, cloud computing is the ultimate solution for this problem / situation. A cloud infrastructure allows virtual machines and operating systems (including the files, settings, and preferences of individual users) to be instantly culled up on demand. So, there's no need for hundreds of machines to be constantly running all the time. Additionally, because you aren't having to feed inactive machines with power or bandwidth, those computing resources and processing power which aren't being used can be devoted toward those users / machines which actually require it (now that's what I call "killing two birds with one stone").
In order to capitalize on these benefits however, an institution must have the qualified personnel on hand who can effectively establish, maintain, and improve upon cloud computing technologies and its related components. This brings us back to the original point, which is, there's never been a better time to get your cloud certification than right now. Everyone is jumping into cloud technology; universities, the US armed forces, various US governmental offices / branches, international governments, businesses, corporations, and of course, individuals.
This all points to the very strong possibility that scores of new jobs and career opportunities with increasingly higher potential salaries are going to begin popping up around cloud computing for many years to come. In fact, this is already the case with many companies. Right now, IT managers (and even those strictly involved on the business end of operations) are creating their own cloud technicians / specialists. How are they achieving this task you might ask?
It is through companies which supply e-learning materials angled at professional development in the IT field that these organizations are able to effectively train their own cloud computing personnel. Top programs, like these, which allow for not only complete comprehension of everything "cloud", but also put you on a pathway toward quick and efficient certification. What's more, some kits also bundle the price of the cert test itself (in addition to other bits which add value like the online-based interactive components). Likewise, the actual course materials can be viewed / deployed on virtually any device, including tablets and smartphones; now, you can literally take your course with you wherever you go.
If you want to take advantage of the shortage of cloud professionals, you'd better do so ASAP, because as you well know, cloud computing is growing in importance and popularity with each passing day. Opportunities like this don't last forever.

DREAM Act
Amidst failure to pass legislation on the DREAM Act, and recent repeals of DACA, the current political climate for Dreamers is tenuous and unstable. IFCLA is committed to advocating for the passage of a clean DREAM Act and immigration policy reform.
What is the DREAM Act and who is elligible?
According to the American Immigration Council (AIC), "the first version of the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act was introduced in 2001. As a result, young undocumented immigrants have since been called Dreamers." The DREAM Act would create a three-step pathway toward citizenship for current, former, and future undocumented high school graduates or GED recipients. The three steps along the pathway to citizenship are 1) Conditional Permanent Residence, 2) Lawful Permanent Residence, and 3) Naturalization. To be eligible for each step of the DREAM Act pathway, individuals must meet requirements regarding: age of entry into the US, DACA status, a clean criminal record, level of education, and commitment to higher education, armed services, or sustained employment.
Has the DREAM Act been passed?
Up to date, various versions of the DREAM Act have been proposed, but none has become law. The AIC notes that bipartisan support has existed for each bill, some versions garnering 48 co-sponsors in the Senate and 152 in the House. To read the most recent proposal of the Act, click here.
How is IFCLA taking action with Dreamers?
IFCLA aims to support and follow the lead of the Dreamers as they advocate for a change in our current policies and laws. In February 2018, IFCLA helped facilitate an interfaith press conference for Dreamers to engage clergy and the wider community in DACA/Dream Act advocacy. In March 2018, IFCLA participated in a public march on Delmar in support of the DREAM Act during a day of statewide demonstrations. IFCLA continues to work alongside the MO Dreamers in both public and personal development of their vision as a young organization; in early June, IFCLA's Executive Director, Sara John, traveled with one of the MO Dreamers to the conference of the Detention Watch Network, where both women were able to gain resources, connections, and ideas for continued immigrant justice work.

28th March 2019 at 20:00
Fantastic Barnstormers Comedy line-up in prospect in the upper floor foyer at the Grove Theatre, Dunstable. As ever, a top Barnstormers Comedy line-up will be on hand to introduce three more top acts from the London Comedy Circuit and beyond. Tonight, they include: the topical observations and slick gags of BBC2 Mash Report's Steve N Allen, 'Allen hits the mark, with an effusive mix of biting satire and gleeful mud-slinging that recalls Russell Howard by way of Ian Hislop' - Three Weeks; the hilariously opinionated and insightful Jay Handley, 'A top class comic with a great mix of material...his gags are imaginative, polished and proper proper funny' - 4GoodComedians; and the potty-mouthed veteran that is Sol Bernstein, ''An instantly winning creation'' - The Evening Standard.

I love how even Microsoft doesn't want to build mobile apps for its own mobile platform...
I'm really feel sorry for you Scott Hanselman, Jakub Jedryszek don't even mention UWP app with a word. I have seen you hold a lot of great talks about UWP, so it's sad that Microsoft developers seems to not have taken any notis of that.
Scott, I think you really should hold an mandatory UWP presentation for all Microsoft developers, because it seams that they don't now it exists.
When apps developed by Microsoft not include a UWP app, how can Microsoft event think developers out there would care?
@snertingen: we are working on UWP app! Michael mentioned it during his talk: https://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/Azure-Friday/Azure-Mobile-App-Overview
@jakubjedryszek: That's fine, but the signal that Microsoft give Developers when saying "we now release iOS and Android app, and we starting working on an UWP app" is that UWP app is so hard to do, but iOS and Android is so easy. It's really a shame that Microsofts internal developers don't front their own system, so it motivates other developers to do UWP.
It's very nice that Microsoft is a xPlaform company and have some great tools to create xPlatform apps, but it would be very cool to se Microsoft give their own system som real love and focus!

The National Weather Service predicts at least 6 inches (15 centimeters) of snow from the Colorado high country through most of Wyoming, where winter storm warnings are in effect.
More than a foot of snow (30 centimeters) could fall in some mountainous areas.
The forecast Monday and Tuesday also calls for gusty winds in much of Wyoming and western Montana. That means wind chills as much as 30 degrees below zero (-34 Celsius).
Butte has already broken record cold temperatures this morning with a low of -26. Kalispell also broke a record from 1936 with a low of -16!
Yesterday, Butte's temperature, -27 and -35 with the wind chill was colder than Antarctica.
Billings schools and several other Eastern Montana school districts are closed today because of the weather.
Forecasters urge people who must drive to bring an extra flashlight and food in water in case they get stuck.

I am FINALLY back after a whirlwind couple of weeks In NYC and Bermuda, and then a week at home hosting our first visitors (which kept me super busy). Today, I am excited to share with you guys our quick trip to NYC. We had to fly though New York to get to Bermuda and decided to make the most of what little time we had in the city. We met up with our best friends who were joining us in Bermuda for a fun 24 hours in the city that never sleeps. P.S. I can take zero credit for this incredible itinerary. Caroline, my friend and fellow blogger at The Belle Abroad is an amazing traveler and definitely knows how to find the best spots in any city.
WHERE TO STAY: The Time New York
Just steps from Times Square and in the heart of the Theatre District is this hidden gem of a boutique hotel, The Time. The Time exudes modern sophistication and certainly knows a thing or two about hospitality. We arrived late after a long day of flying and were greeted by the friendly front desk staff who offered us great options for late night food (we were starving).
Our room was the perfect size and was impeccably decorated in a modern and minimalist style. The beds were super cozy, and I would have stayed in bed all day if it weren't for the bustling city below beckoning me to explore. Both Ben and I did take full advantage of the plush robes and enjoyed breakfast in bed. We both agreed that our absolute favorite part of the room was the hidden television in the mirror (SO COOL).
The Time was in the perfect location for our day of exploring. We were so close to Times Square and only a short 15 minute walk to Central Park. Often times finding a hotel in NYC that is conveniently located to all of the sites is the most daunting task, but a stay at The Time will leave you close to most anything you would want to visit.
Looking for delicious cocktails before a night out on the town? Located right in the lobby is the super chic LeGrande Lounge. We loved the convenience of having the option for drinks right in our hotel. We didn't do dinner at the on-site restaurant, Serafina, but I have heard it is delicious!
We had the best time in the city and couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to stay. This was definitely not my last trip to NYC and certainly not my last stay at The Time. I cannot wait to be back!
THE FLAT IRON BUILDING: You can't spend any time in the city without visiting the Flat Iron District! Snap a pic in front of the iconic flat iron building and then stop in at Eataly for some delicious Italian cuisine!
WASHINGTON MEWS: Caroline lives in London amongst some of the most quaint mews in the world, so it seemed only fitting that we checked out the mews in New York. Nestled in between 5th Avenue and Madison Park, the Washington Mews are a private street of homes that were formerly used as horse stables. Make sure to have your camera ready because you will definitely be snapping lots of pics of these cute and colorful homes.
SWEETS BY CHLOE: On our quest to discover the cutest spots for treats in NYC, we stumbled upon the fabulous and pink, SWEETS BY CHLOE. We both opted for a refreshing iced latte, but I can't wait to return for some of their yummy vegan treats. We went to the location in West Village thats located right beside the full service restaurant By Chloe. Definitely a must visit if you are into incredible decor, lots of pink and yummy vegan food.
THE BROOKLYN BRIDGE: I've made countless visits to NYC, but I have never actually walked the Brooklyn Bridge. It definitely lived up to the hype and 100% worth it for the amazing pictures we got + the sunset views.

Awww. so some naughty and discriminating guys out there made some imaginations of George Clooney in pictures having sex with some men including his own best friend, Brad Pitt.

Epic Color is a growing division of A/E Graphics, Inc. which was originally founded as Green Bay Blueprint by Guy and Marjorie Lam. Later, Fred Gennerman and Mel Kirsch acquired the company and named it A/E Graphics, Inc. in 1976.
The Lams, Fred and Mel had a basis of hard work, quality results and great customer service.
Always looking to the future, Fred and Mel helped to adapt their roots in blueprinting, photocopying, pin bar registration for drafting and photography into a digital document and color graphics company.
In 2001, five employees became owners of A/E Graphics: Tim Davis, Dan Schmidt, Joe Shaw, John Sieber and Tom Taubenheim. Recognized as professional, reliable, devoted and passionate team members from the get go, it was natural that the leadership roles would pass on to the five. These guys have each put in more than 20 years at A/E Graphics.
Through the 2000's, Tim, Dan, Joe, John and Tom launched new innovations in digital printing, scanning and online document management. In 2009, they opened Epic Color which evolved from growing demands for custom signs and displays. Epic Color is run with the same passion and work ethic as A/E Graphics.
Our team lives by the motto "Be Epic." Whatever type of project that you dream up, we will make it a reality. Never hesitate to ask us to do something new or "out of the box." We will make it Epic!

Ford Raptor VS 2014 Ford Raptor: Which is Faster?
- by Kristina Cox
- in World Media
- — Feb 4, 2017
The Ford Raptor is a pickup for pickup-truck fans who want just a little bit more. Ford also mated the Raptor's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 with a quick-shifting 10-speed automatic gearbox to keep the twin-turbo engine right in its power band, and thanks to aluminum construction, the new model is around 500 lbs lighter than its predecessor.
F-150 Raptor is a class of one among off-road performance vehicles, with purpose-built engine, chassis and suspension - all of which enable it to travel fast over challenging desert landscapes or crawl along rocky terrain, from Baja to the Gobi Desert.
As we all know, the all-new, 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor is significantly more potent than the last Raptor model, which was discontinued after the 2014 model year as the F-150 range underwent its last significant redesign. It's fitted with custom Fox Racing shocks and BFGoodrich off-road tires, together with a performance exhaust system.
While the F-150 Raptor is the first export to China for the F-Series, the Dearborn-based automaker now exports its Focus RS and ST models, as well as the Fiesta ST.
Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Fallout: South Korea To Strengthen Battery Safety Measures
Also, the report tips that the Samsung Galaxy S8 will have an iris recognition feature that was earlier seen in the Galaxy Note 7. As noted, the Korean mobile phone company has finally issued an official statement about the cause of the Galaxy Note 7 incident.
The F-150 Raptor, which is manufactured at Ford's truck factory in Dearborn, Michigan, is among more than a dozen new performance vehicles that will be rolled out by 2020. For customers in China, the truck's reputation has proceeded itself.
But the Detroit makers are now targeting larger, higher-end opportunities with products like the Ford Raptor.
The truck's unique look and capability has generated "amazing buzz at every auto show" around China, according to David Schoch, Ford's group vice president and president of Ford Asia Pacific. General Motors, meanwhile, will begin shipping over US -made Chevrolet Silverados and the smaller Colorado pickup, starting next year.

Instead of feeling precious and petite, this ultra-fine ring wears like an understated statement piece thanks to its hammered texture. Blending a delicate proportion with a rough texture creates a simple juxtaposition that makes this stacking ring a total must-have. Wear it in the middle of a set of smooth, perfectly polished bands and this slender style suddenly goes from unassuming to unforgettable. Made in the U.S.A.

Among the Fog/ Shannon '17
The warm weather is coming which means violent weather.... but that's not a bad thing. This was a last minute personal shoot like all of them, and when we got closer and closer to the shoreline, the fog got thicker and thicker. Stepping onto the sand, we couldn't see the water until you were only a few feet away from it. I've said it a bunch but I really felt like I was in a dream. And then as we drove home, we stopped on "our" street and shot until there was no sunlight left.

The president said this week that he would scrap the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, introduced by his predecessor, President Barack Obama, that gives work permits to those who arrived in the country as children – known as "Dreamers."
The attorneys general of 15 states have filed a lawsuit to stop the move.
Amazon, Starbucks, and Microsoft, which are all based in Washington State, have filed sworn statements supporting the action, the Financial Times reported.
Brad Smith, president and chief legal officer of Microsoft, said earlier this week that the software giant had 39 employees protected under DACA. He said that ending the program would be a "big step back" for the U.S.
Facebook founder and chief executive Mark Zuckerberg on Tuesday described Trump's announcement as a "sad day for our country," adding, "The decision to end DACA is not just wrong, it is particularly cruel to offer young people the American Dream, encourage them to come out of the shadows and trust our government and then punish them for it."

Approximately 500 prosecutors (or district attorneys) and sheriffs will be elected in 2019. These officials are responsible for setting a wide range of policies that impact detention conditions, incarceration rates, cooperation with ICE, and much more. Yet they receive the attention they deserve too infrequently. On this page, the Appeal: Political Report has identified the jurisdictions that will be electing their prosecutor and/or their sheriff in 2019.
Read our first preview of these elections here, and visit our election portal for more coverage of 2019 local elections.
Louisiana, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Virginia will select many if not all of their prosecutors or sheriffs this year. Just a handful of counties including San Francisco will hold solitary elections elsewhere. The map below also depicts the most populous counties with elections and the counties whose participation in ICE's 287(g) program is at stake.

RCC exists to love God and to love others as Jesus did in order to make disciples of Him*.
*Being a disciple of Jesus means....
1. As God's children, we are called to love him above all, with all we have and all that we are. We are to live our lives in a way that glorifies him (Matthew 22:36-40).
2. We are called to love others around us - those inside but especially those outside the church. Neighbors are anyone who we cross paths with, who we can show love to (Matthew 22:36-40).
3. We are called to multiply our faith by sowing the seeds of faith in others and equipping one another to do so (Matthew 28:18-20).
What is our Vision to fulfill the mission?
Acts 2:42-47
To be dedicated to God (vs. 42, 47)
To be dedicated to the gospel and scripture (vs. 42)
To be dedicated to prayer (vs. 42)
To be dedicated to fellowship and one another (vs. 42, 44-46)
To be dedicated to multiplication/discipleship (vs. 47)
How do we live this out?
We gather on Sunday mornings to worship and praise God for what He has done, to challenge ourselves with God's Word and to pray for God's will to be done in and through RCC (God, scripture and prayer).
We gather in life groups in order to cultivate meaningful relationships grounded in Christ, to open up our lives to one another in order to care for one another and to help one another grow together into Christ. Small groups are a great way to get connected to RCC (God, prayer, fellowship).
We multiply our faith and make disciples of the next generation and those new to Christ through children's, youth, men's and women's ministry (gospel, fellowship, discipleship).

Food, glorious food
Sleeping in is unusual, so I must have needed to do it. We went to Cedars for dinner last night to celebrate Annette's birthday, then adjourned to the Andrewses for dessert. All delicious, and my sleep may well have been part of my body's attempt to metabolize the excess I ate. Great company, too.

I was impressed by the wingspan of these wings. I could spot the plane from across the park.
I can't believe I've lived here for 2 years and haven't been to this church. The History, the cultural influences, learning about the art that went into the church was so fascinating. I recommend it to anyone who visits Tucson.

Following last week's blog about some of my experiences from a recent assignment about remote and flexible working I have put together more detailed ideas and thoughts about working on trust.
In my experience, trust is the primary issue people talk about when managing change and, in this context, moving to working in remote and flexible settings. This includes home working, flexible hours, annualised hours, mobile working, agile working and hot desking, inter alia. In a results orientated work environment performance isn't measured and assessed on presence. People are supported through ongoing performance and development conversations, appropriate communications and collaboration, and trusted to do their work, focused on outcomes. This requires trust all round - upwards, downwards, sideways.
Addressing and dealing with trust is paramount. It needs working on consciously and collectively until everyone is on board. It is on going and requires integrity, good emotional self management, engagement in the process and caring behaviours.
People earn the trust of others when they demonstrate three forms of transactional trust. The term "transactional trust" is used because it is reciprocal in nature - "you have to give trust to get trust." The three pillars of trust are contractual, communication and competence.
Contractual trust sets the tone and direction of the team. If you have ever been disappointed by someone who did not do what he/she promised, then you've experienced a betrayal of contractual trust. Maybe you schedule a team meeting, notify people well in advance and get to the meeting on time, yet find yourself waiting for the same people who are consistently late. Or perhaps someone made an unreasonable request of you, putting you in a bind.
To strengthen contractual trust among team members:
- Set and manage expectations
- Establish boundaries
- Delegate appropriately – remember there are six degrees of delegation
- Encourage mutually serving intentions
- Keep agreements
- Be consistent
Communication trust establishes information flow and how team members talk with one another. How willing are you to share information with others in your team and in your own team you lead? How do you decide what to share and what to hold back? What happens when someone questions the truthfulness of others?
How team members communicate with each other and how they speak about each other are clues to the level of communication trust. Guidelines for fostering communication trust include:
· Share information and knowledge
· Tell the truth
· Admit mistakes
· Provide and receive helpful and effective feedback
· Maintain confidentiality
· Speak with good purpose (mindfulness)
Competence trust allows the team to leverage and further develop skills and knowledge. Micromanaging is a sign that competence trust is lacking. Maybe you've felt micromanaged or under utilised, or perhaps you rarely allow others to make decisions, assuming that no one can make decisions as good as yours.
To build competence trust it is important to:
· Acknowledge people's skills and abilities
· Allow people to make decisions - empowerment
· Involve others and seek their input (consult and involve supports autonomy, well being and increased motivation)
· Help people learn skills
A starting point for building trust within your team is to ask yourself, "Which of the three types of trust am I best at cultivating? Which of the three types of trust is my weakest area?" Think of specific examples that show your capacity for building trust and those that reveal ways you diminish trust.
Trust based relationships – the manager's role
Building trust based relationships requires personal competence, integrity and care.
No matter how impeccable someone's character is, if they cannot demonstrate competence, it is difficult to trust them. Similarly, it is hard to trust a competent person with confidential information if they show no interest in your wellbeing. Finally, without integrity, competence and caring would ring hollow.
People who are good at what they do and are able to relate that experience to others emanate trustworthiness. In a working relationship, accomplishments and professional merit aren't the only important things. Competence is also demonstrated through the ability to share experiences with others, mentor and coach. It is competence that enables someone to guide an employee to develop talent, skills or knowledge.
People who do what they say they are going to do inspire trust. So do people who speak truthfully about their thoughts and experiences, and whose actions mirror their values. People also demonstrate their integrity by the way they maintain confidentiality.
It is important that concern and regard for peoples' work, development needs and wellbeing are thought about and attended to through appropriate support and action. Practise active listening and recognise achievements. Make room to discuss issues and talk through challenging situations.
Key principles in building trust
1 Know your people
Make time to talk to them and understand what they think and why. Value their viewpoint even if it is different from your own. Listen well.
2 Do what you say you're going to do
Agree what you are aiming to achieve through 1-2-1s, remote and flexible support and supervision. Be reliable and always do what you say you are going to do.
3 Communicate openly and honestly
Discuss issues as soon as they arise. Ask for and provide feedback.
4 Ensure that you maintain your competence
Regularly review your development needs and undertake continuous professional development (CPD).
5 Show empathy and don't be afraid to challenge
An open, honest relationship means you can maintain trust even when you don't see the other person all the time.
Building better teams through trust is the right frame to make remote and flexible working, work.

A federal lien and garnishment attach to the beneficiary's interest in a spendthrift trust even if the trust gives the trustee sole discretion over distributions and even if the beneficiary disclaims his interest in the trust. A beneficiary of a spendthrift trust established under California law has a sufficient right to payment to make the beneficiary's interest "property" subject to a federal lien and garnishment even if the trust purports to allow the trustee absolute discretion as to whether to make distributions to the beneficiary. Furthermore, the beneficiary cannot defeat the lien by disclaiming his interest in the trust.

Lady Madeline's heart is not for sale - especially not to a notorious outlaw like Rhys FitzHenry. Yet Madeline's hand has been sold, to none other than this battle-weary warrior with a price on his head. A more dutiful maiden might cede to the Laird's command and meekly accept her fate, but Madeline has never been obedient. She decides to run away, though she never dreams that Rhys will pursue her. She does not expect this taciturn man to woo her with fanciful stories, much less that each of his enthralling tales will reveal a scar upon his shielded soul. She never imagines that a man like Rhys could imperil her own heart while revealing so little of his own feelings. When Rhys's past threatens his future, Madeline takes a leap of faith. She dares to believe him innocent - and risks her own life to pursue a passion more priceless than the rarest gem.
Madeline is a heroine that is easy to love. She is graceful, daring, charismatic, and speaks her mind with dialogue that will leave the reader laughing out loud as she banters with the other characters in this novel. She has recently lost her betrothed, a kind hearted musician, who died in battle in France after being pushed to go to war by his father. Broken hearted, she has determined not to wed. After nearly a year of morning however, her prankster brother, Alexander, has decided to take matters into his own hands. Eager to ensure a good match for Madeline and money to support the younger siblings, he decides to auction her off to a carefully selected group of bachelors. When the situation goes awry and Madeline finds herself wedded to a tall, mysterious stranger, she takes matters into her own hands and flees into the night.
Rhys Fitzhenry has a dangerous reputation. Marked as a traitor by the king, he must run for his life from the King's men. Eager to protect the land he feels is his, he steps out from behind the walls that keep him safe to claim a bride and sire an heir to keep his kingdom. When he hears of the auction for the jewel of Kinfairlie, he cannot resist.
Rhys is humble, protective, strikingly handsome, and can tell a tale with extraordinary skill. He is an excellent match for the beautiful and quick witted Madeline.
The writing for this novel is exceptional. The details make the scenes come to life and fairly jump off the pages. The characters have depth with realistic flaws and strengths that make them memorable. I was especially impressed by the creativity in the tales Rhys tells. From the witty dialogue, to the intriguing side characters, to the plot that makes this novel impossible to put down, The Beauty Bride is a must read!
I listened to the audio version of this book, narrated by Saskia Maarleveld. Her range of voices is impressive. The reading is smooth, the flow is even, and her skill with both narration and dialogue add to the novel. The audiobook version is outstanding!
For any readers who enjoy historical romance, Claire Delcroix is a must-read author and The Beauty Bride is a novel you'll remember long past the final pages!

KONČAR – Power Plant and Electric Traction Engineering Inc. (KET) and the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technologies (FEEIT) in Skopje have concluded an agreement on cooperation and donation of a PROZA NET SCADA system for the "Innovation and Technology Transfer Center" (INNOFEIT).
The agreement was signed as part of the MAKO CIGRÉ Conference in Ohrid by the Dean of FEEIT, Prof. Dimitar Taskovski, PhD and the President of the Managing Board of KONČAR – KET, Mišo Jurković.
The cooperation between KET and FEEIT includes the conducting of scientific research and development projects, and the use of each other's specific expert knowledge, equipment and laboratories.
On that occasion, KET also handed over the PROZ NET SCADA system that will be used at the new FEEIT center. For the purpose of strengthening the cooperation between the university and the industry, FEEIT has established an "Innovation and Technology Transfer Center" (INNOFEIT) in order to make sure that their students are better prepared for their future in the industry. INNOFEIT is to be the center of interaction between FEEIT's professors and students and their partners from the industry, who will entice networking and the transfer of technologies, and also encourage innovative ideas and, thus, promote economic development of companies, and the society as a whole.
PROZA NET SCADA system is a multi-user, distributed software for the monitoring and control of objects and facilities in power systems. Its modular architecture satisfies the requirements for a high-quality system with a significant level of integration with external systems. Its major advantages are a high degree of reliability, flexibility and scalability. It can be used for different levels of monitoring and control, from local computers at a facility level, to real-time monitoring of large centralized systems used in control centers. The system can be used to manage facilities in the field of power energetics, gas, oil, industry, transport and water management. PROZA NET SCADA system has been completely developed at KET and is the result of their own knowledge and experience.

Had a tiff with The Boy this morning. Got hungry around lunch time.
Thought, "A nice big sandwich or cheeseburger or plate of Chinese food would make me feel better!" Had a Lean Cuisine instead.
It is now 3:00. Am currently thinking, "I need chocolate! I'll go get some cookies or cake or M&Ms or something!" Am trying to convince myself that a 100-calorie Boston Cream Pie flavored yogurt will suffice.
I think I need a few good soldiers to help me stave off these urges. But alas, all I have is me.

Creech: Deshaun Watson makes Texans a hot topic in July
It's July in Houston.
The Rockets offseason is as fascinating as ever. Carmelo Anthony could soon be joining Chris Paul and James Harden and Clint Capela is still waiting to find out his future with the team.
The Astros look really good again as the All-Star break approaches. Five Astros were selected as All-Stars this year and a few more easily could have been.
And with all of that going on, the Texans remain a very hot topic in the dead heat of summer.
Someone asked me today why on Earth anyone is talking about the Texans right now.
Well, it's actually pretty easy to see why.
Even though training camp is a couple of weeks away and the season a couple months down the road, there is a lot to be excited about.
Mainly Deshaun Watson.
You can't talk about how exciting Houston sports are right now and not talk about Watson.
The Astros and Rockets are the better teams in town. They both have reigning MVPs. The Astros are the reigning champs and the Rockets were one half of basketball away from playing for a title of their own.
They deserve all the credit and hype they are given.
The Texans haven't won anything significant yet. They've suffered blow after blow on the injury front in 2017 and have been a disappointment as of late.
Still, with Watson and his go-to target (and one of the best receivers in the game) DeAndre Hopkins, the Texans are giving fans in the city a whole lot of hope.
The duo is as talked about as any Rocket or Astro.
Over the weekend, Texans legend Andre Johnson weighed in on both, calling Hopkins "arguably the best in the game." He also expressed how excited he is to see what Watson will do this season.
There's so much excitement in Houston sports lately and Watson is near the top of that list thanks to a few performances last season before suffering an ACL tear.
He played in seven games and started in six (the Texans went 3-3 in those.) He completed 126-of-204 passes for 1,699 yards and 19 touchdowns.
More importantly than anything on paper or in a stat line, Watson was explosive. He was smart. He was fun to watch.
He brought a optimism to a team that has lived with quarterback woes for years.
So it makes sense to talk about Watson and to talk about the Texans, even when there are so many other things going on.
July in Houston might revolve around the Astros and the Rockets free agency, but you can't ignore what's around the corner during football season - not when Deshaun Watson is in the mix.

Religious ceremony
Religious and civil marriages are not separated in the Czech Republic. If a religious ceremony takes place in Prague a marriage certificate is issued following the ceremony. Such marriage is legal and fully recognized by the respective legal systems around the world. For couples entering a marriage, a standard package of documents will be required for the registration of marriage.
For couples that are already married but wishing to celebrate the sacrament of marriage in religious ceremony the only document that is required by the local Municipal Office is a marriage certificate with a court translation into Czech.
There are additional documents, though, that may be required depending on the type of religious ceremony (Baptism certificate, Marriage Preparation Course Certificate, Letter of delegation from the priest).

Colds can be a simple ailment, but it can be very disturbing especially if you can barely breathe through your nose due to nasal congestion. Aside from a nasal congestion, a 'runny nose' may also irritate your nostrils from frequent wiping of the area.
In this line, managements for colds should be employed to help you alleviate your symptoms. A cold is self-limiting, which means that you cannot actually cure it because it resolves on its own. It usually caused by a virus so it will generally resolve in a matter of one to two days.
Being self-limiting, there are no medications that will surely cure colds, but there are managements to reduce or alleviate the symptoms and to shorten the recovery time. In this regard, the following are the most common and most effective ways to manage colds:
• Water therapy
Water therapy is a classic management for colds; nevertheless, it is still the simplest, cheapest and one of the most effective remedies for the condition. Water increases moisture in the cells that helps moisten the mucus in the nasal cavity for easier decongestion. It also hydrates the mucous membranes in the nose to avoid cracking from dried mucus. Make sure to drink at least two litres of water every day as tolerated.
• Drinking Honey
Honey is another effective management for colds. It contains antioxidants that help reduce free radicals in the body that eventually helps strengthen the immune system. With an increased immunity, the viruses may be eradicated faster; thus shortening the recovery time. Research also supports the use of honey in both cough and colds. Aside from these, honey also soothes the itchy and irritated throat from mucus that has dripped to the pharynx from the nasal cavity. Drink or give your child 2 teaspoonful of honey at bedtime to help him sleep soundly, despite the colds.
• Consuming citrus fruits
Citrus fruits contain high amounts of vitamin C that can help strengthen the immune system by making the collagen network of the cells more intact. By doing so, you prevent further proliferation of the virus in the nasal cavity. Increase intake of citrus fruits such as oranges, and lemons.
• Inhaling hot steam
Our mucus normally dries up when it is congested so to relieve this, you may inhale a hot steam by placing a bowl of hot water in front of you and covering your head and face with a cloth to prevent the steam from escaping and allowing you to inhale it fully. You can also turn on the hot shower with the shower curtain closed to trap the steam and stay inside the bathroom for steam inhalation. This effectively moistens the nasal area and also helps the mucus to be secreted effectively.
• Using Eucalyptus rubs
Eucalyptus has a natural soothing and relaxing properties that help relieve body malaise related to colds. It also contains cooling effects that when inhaled, causes the blood vessels in the nasal lining to constrict and relieve nasal congestion. Rub eucalyptus to the chest and back.
A cold is a simple ailment, but needs to be relieved because it may lead to post-nasal drip that can cause cough and respiratory infections. Medications for colds are available, but it is safer, cheaper, and sometimes more effective to use home remedies.

The transition back to my work schedule went as smoothly as anyone could reasonably expect. Monday was a laid-back, smooth-going day. Yesterday, was another beast altogether, a complete 180-degree difference in terms of things going wrong. They weren't things that couldn't be handled, just the usual headaches that pop up from time-to-time, actually. However, I'm glad that I had the buffer of Monday to ease back into the regular schedule.
On another note, some of my work was just featured on "ARTchipel" on Tumblr.com a couple of days ago.

"From a corporate social responsibility standpoint, it is becoming increasingly difficult to associate our brand with sports events which could lead to serious and irresponsible accidents; action must be taken by the NHL before we are encountered with a fatality." Air Canada in a letter to the NHL.
That makes sense. Even if the NHL doesn't think so.
This has been a brutal year in the NHL. Players and the NHL have shown a stunning lack of respect for themselves, their fellow players, the NHL brand, the League, fans and the Game.
They've made it clear through their actions and words that they do not understand that increasingly in society – and in corporations – winning at all costs is no longer acceptable – winning responsibly is.
Here's and excerpt from the Wikipedia definition of Corporate Social Responsibility, or CSR as it is known:
Corporate social responsibility ….. CSR policy functions as a built-in, self-regulating mechanism whereby business monitors and ensures its active compliance with the spirit of the law, ethical standards, and international norms. The goal of CSR is to embrace responsibility for the company's actions and encourage a positive impact through its activities on the environment, consumers, employees, communities, stakeholders and all other members of the sphere…
Here are links to the Corporate Social Responsibility policies of some NHL partners and sponsors:
Not every NHL sponsor or partner publicly articulates a corporate social responsibility policy (for example, I couldn't find one for Air Canada) but it's evident from their websites that all of them integrate socially responsible policies into their corporate governance practices (sustainability is key term many of them use – and it does not just mean green).
I suspect given what's gone on in the NHL this season – especially since the Chara hit in Montreal – that it's not only Air Canada who's had to put a little thought into how their association with the NHL is consistent or inconsistent with their notions of corporate social responsibility – and what's best for their brand.
It's also interesting how most of them are prepared – at least for now – to keep playing with their heads down. In hockey, that's never a good thing.

Hey there fashion lovers! Do you sometimes get tired of mixing and matching clothes and you prefer not to think if two pieces go together? Well, this is possible if you wear black and white outfits. 7-8 pieces are just enough for having numerous ready-to-go combinations for every occasion. I forgot to mention that black and white outfits are one of my favorites. I find them easiest to style. These two colors have a rather strong power. There is nothing more stylish than pairing together black and white. If you want a bold look, you should definitely go for this combination of colors.
Browse though the photos below and see some outfits which will look great on you this season. Don't forget to tell us your favorites in a comment! Follow the black and white trend this winter for a classy and sophisticated look. These two colors have a dazzling effects that never go out of style. If you were wondering how to create some pretty amazing outfits, check out the photos for inspiration.

Walls of Whittier brightened by new murals
Whittier Elementary School got to add some great new art to their halls last week, thanks to the talent of Janette Louden, a visual artist and former Kenosha resident.
Originally from England, Louden got her start working as a graphic designer for a firm there, and went on to illustrate characters for educational materials. This particular skill came in handy again after Louden moved to the U.S., and was asked to redesign the Whittier School mascot, Thunder Paws, during the time she lived in Kenosha.
Recently, Paula West, whom Louden used to share an office with, asked if Louden would be interested in painting a mural for Whittier. She agreed, though she says that it took a bit of thought about how best to do it, since she now lives in Minneapolis.
Louden explained:
"The principal wanted the murals to be portable so they could be moved, if necessary. So, it was decided I'd paint them on wood panels. The wall that was to be used had a post dividing it, so we produced two separate pieces. I came up with two designs: one with kids holding banners with the 'Whittier Way Pledge' on them, and one with a 'Kenosha' theme. There were a couple of changes made, and I designed the murals with a 3-D element to make it a little more interesting. Once I had the basic shape, I primed them and started to draw the design on and paint. We brought them down here just before Thanksgiving and I finished them at Art Work."
The panels were taken to Whittier last Tuesday evening, where Louden talked with a scout troop about the project. She was back again on Wednesday morning to do four half-hour assemblies, where she unveiled the murals and spoke to the students. Louden enjoyed the questions that the children asked, including whether or not she knew sign language, along with a slew of inquiries about her home country. Many of them also asked how she knew how to "draw so good." Louden says that it was important to her to encourage the students to follow their dreams, and not to waver if anyone tells them that they won't be successful.
"I failed art in school. I went on to do a two-year graphics course at my local college and was pretty much told that I'd never be able to succeed as a freelance illustrator, as it's far too competitive. All I was any good at, at least in my opinion, was drawing, and I was being told I wasn't good enough. That's a hard thing to deal with. But it's all I wanted to do. And now, I get paid for drawing! I have nine published children's story books, and illustrations in hundreds of educational books all over the world. So I really wanted to get across to the kids not to let anyone tell you that you're not going to be able to do something you really want to do. If you work hard enough and practice enough and don't give up, you can achieve amazing things."
