Good morning to everyone out there in cybersapce. Well, another month of Adult formation has come and gone. I'm impressed at the number of parishioners from both Holy Family and St. Paul that are taking advantage of this program. We never quit learning about our faith - it's alive and moving and we need to do our best to try and understand the fullness of it as best we can - of course we can never absorb it all, but it can sure be fun and challenging when we study and learn together. Thanks for the encouragement that you give me in support of this type of Family/Adult Religious Education. Blessings!

The project, awarded by the Taiyangshan Development Zone near the city of Wuzhong, is subject to a feasibility study and government approval. The company expects to begin work on the four-year project in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region in 2010.
Winning the contract to develop the plant, whose 150 MW capacity equates to some of the larger wind farms operating in Europe and the United States, fits the company's strategy of branching out from its core business of solar wafer production.
"Our plan for domestic solar construction is we want to partner with large international solar companies," Chief Executive Xiahshou Li told Reuters. "We want to base our relationship on introducing them to the (Chinese) market, partnering them and having them provide part of the financing."
China's move from simply manufacturing solar products for export toward using them to generate electricity domestically presented an opportunity for new revenue streams, Li added.
His comments came as former British Prime Minister Tony Blair said, following a meeting with Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao, that the country appeared committed to taking stronger steps to contain greenhouse emissions.
A study by some of China's top climate change advisers recommended setting firm targets to limit greenhouse gas emissions and ensure they peak by around 2030.
Ian Osburn, an analyst at Edison Investment Research, said that after a pause in the alternative energy market during the credit crisis, China was starting to invest significant amounts in the sector again.
"The market seems to be still treating alternative energy as a boom-time luxury, like gym membership, but if the scientists are right about climate change, then it's investment that has to happen. With companies like ReneSola there's going to be a return to growth," he said.
The company said last month it had signed a letter of intent with the Yancheng city government in Jiangsu Province to develop a 500-megawatt solar power generation project.
Li said ReneSola was also winning contracts under China's Golden Sun project which offers subsidies for solar production, and that a hoped-for feed-in tariff would likely lead to a dramatic rise in demand for panels from private households.
The new projects will not alter the company's short-term revenue or shipment forecasts.
"We expect a 60-70 percent increase in revenues from the second to the third quarter, but we still need to absorb $85 per kilo of polysilicon inventory costs, and that will lead to losses," Li said in an interview. "We still expect losses for the third quarter."
But inventory costs were likely to fall to $65 to $70 a kilo in the fourth quarter, he added.
Analysts are cautiously optimistic about ReneSola's performance in the medium term.
Nick Edwards of the London brokerage firm Mirabaud said the company had large debts but that diversification and a fall in polysilicon prices would help it to become competitive again after a "pretty torrid time" over the last year or two.
"ReneSola looks like it'll have module costs... (on a par) with some of the better low-cost Chinese producers like Yingli, and better placed than the higher cost European producers," Edwards said.

"Yup," Martin confirmed the relationship by captioning a photo of the couple on Instagram
Ricky Martin is off the market.
The singer and his new boyfriend Jwan Yosef made their first appearance as a couple at the amFAR Inspiration Gala in Sao Paolo, Brazil on Friday.
Martin, 44, and Yosef, 32, walked hand-in-hand on the red carpet, both looking dapper in black tuxes. The Grammy Award winner appeared to confirm his relationship status on Instagram by posting a photo of the pair along with the simple caption, "Yup."
Yosef is a painter who was born in Syria, raised Swedish and now lives in London. "We cleaned up good," he captioned his Instagram photo of the duo.
Martin, who is a father to 7-year-old twin sons Matteo and Valentino, was previously involved in a 3-year relationship with Carlos Gonzalez Abella, whom he split from in January 2014.
Martin and Yosef certainly chose a fashionable night to make their red carpet debut. The amFAR Inspiration Gala was co-hosted by Givenchy's creative director Ricardo Tisci and model/actress Naomi Campbell, during which designer Marc Jacobs presented Kate Moss with the amfAR Award of Inspiration. Dsquared2's Dean and Dan Caten also accepted the amfAR Award of Inspiration.

Flawed Scripts - Will They Improve in 2019
- 09 Feb - 15 Feb, 2019
In Mah-e-Tamam, you can see it's a va va voom pair! Naveen looks gorgeous, and Emaad is as handsome as he looked in Saya-e-Deewar Bhee Naheen. But, once again, sorry for robbing the scribe of any praise! It's nothing to write home about!
Why have all channels torn off the progressive pages? Have we all become terribly pessimistic? I mean, can't we have one track of some meaningful prose? Not many visionaries like Munnu Bhai and Ashfaq Ahmed left in our media, perhaps! But, then, what about people like Shahid Mahmood Nadeem, the doyen of Ajoka? What about Sarmad Sehbai, who penned the film titled Mah-e-Mir? What about Shoaib Mansoor, who gave us films like Khuda ke Liyay and Bol, and Verna? That means the channels want a particular kind of drama!
Emaad looks cool, but they are wasting him. Not many men from commercial wings make it across the art divide. Emaad has done so. Given a bigger purpose in life, inside the script, he will keep his freshness alive. Otherwise, soon, he will also start looking stale, with hackneyed clichés and lackluster scripts.

Nation & World
Death rates rise in middle-aged white population
The mortality rate for white men and women between the ages of 45 and 54 with less than a college education increased by half a percent per year between 1999 and 2013, most likely because of problems with legal and illegal drugs, alcohol, and suicide, according to the study released in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Before then, death rates for that group were dropping at an average of 2 percent a year.
"Drugs and alcohol, and suicide ... are clearly the proximate cause," said Angus Deaton, the 2015 Nobel laureate in economics, who co-authored the paper with his wife, Anne Case. Both are economics professors at Princeton University.
Since at least 1970, Americans and residents of other wealthy countries have generally enjoyed longer and healthier lives, as smoking has declined, better treatments have been developed and preventive measures have had an impact on mortality.
But these bleak findings could have far-reaching implications as the surviving members of this sizable segment of the baby boomers continue toward retirement and eligibility for Medicare, according to experts. A sicker population that has been less able to prepare for the costs associated with old age will place an increasing burden on society and federal programs, they said.
"This is the first indicator that the plane has crashed," said Jonathan Skinner, a professor of economics at Dartmouth College, who reviewed the study and co-authored a commentary that appears with it. "I don't know what's going on, but the plane has definitely crashed."
"High school graduates (and) high school dropouts (are) 40 percent of the population," he added. "It's not just the 10 percent who didn't finish high school. It's a much bigger group."
Death rates for other developed nations examined by the two researchers, as well as rates for U.S. blacks and Hispanics, continued the steady decline of recent decades. Whites in other age groups between 30 and 64, and more educated whites also had lower death rates. But the other age groups also experienced substantially higher death rates from drug and alcohol overdoses, suicide, chronic liver disease and cirrhosis of the liver.
An increase in the mortality rate for any large demographic group in an advanced nation is virtually unheard of in recent decades, with the exception of Russian men after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
While the death rate for African-Americans is still greater than the rate for whites, the turnaround among whites is shocking because of the advantages they enjoy, said David Weir, director of the health and retirement study at the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan.
Weir said economic insecurity, the decay of communities and the breakdown of families probably have had some impact on death and illness rates, in addition to the nation's opioid epidemic and the factors the authors identified. But the study clearly shows they are not the result of diseases such as lung cancer or diabetes, which are declining and increasing slowly, respectively.

Steam Therapy for Kidney Disease
Patient: Hello doctor. It seems that your Steam Therapy is a little like sauna.
Doctor: Yes, they are similar. But sauna can not help you improve kidney function, while steam therapy can do it for you.
P: How does it work?
D: I think you have seen the bed for steam therapy. Actually it is a kind of full-automatic steam machine. Before you begin the treatment, our medical workers will pour medicinal soup under the bed. And the medical soup is prescribed according to your medical condition. When you begin the treatment, lie on the bed. During treatment, your skin pores will open due to the warming function so that the active ingredients of herbs can go into your body via your skin, and waste products in body can also be passed out of body with sweat. This therapy can expel evil qi from channels and recover the normal function of main and collateral channels so as to help kidneys heal.
P: What is the treatment effect of steam therapy?
D: Your cold limbs and hands will become warm. You will have sweat. Ammoniacal odor in mouth will be relieved. Urination at night will reduce. Urine will become smelly due to the increased waste output. Bubbles in urine will decrease. Floccules will appear in urine. Kidney function will improve. Anemia will be corrected. Blood pressure will be stabilized.
P: That is really amazing.
D: Yes. This is just one of our
Chinese medicine treatment
. To make the effect more obvious after a short period of treatment, we usually combine it with other therapies such as Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy, Medicated Bath, Foot Bath, Acupuncture, Moxibustion, Navel Therapy, Mai Kang Mixture and oral Chinese medicine.
P: I want to receive your treatment. How much does your treatment cost?
D: Different kidney patients have different medical conditions, so their cost varies from one to one. Now you can send your medical test report to us. We can help you analyze it. After that, we will give you a general cost.
P: I will send it to you immediately.
D: OK, i will check it later.
P: Thank you.
D: You are welcome.

Combined shear wave velocity model SL2013sv/SMEAN2
In order to combine global upper and lower mantle velocity models, two tomographic velocity models are each cut and interconnected at a discontinuity (e.g. 410- or 660 km discontinuity). SMEAN is a composite shear wave velocity model by Becker and Boschi (2002). Included in its development are the 3D tomographic models s20rts (Ritsema et al., 1999), SB4L18 (Masters et al., 1999) and Grand (Grand et al., 1997). It is a regularly gridded model with 0.5°x0.5°x25 km grid cell spacing from 25 km depth to the core-mantle boundary. The input models are retrieved from body-wave tomography (all), surface-wave tomography (all) and normal modes inversion (s20rts and SB4L18). The models are combined by calculating the weighted average velocities in depth intervals, thus smoothing small wavelength heterogeneities.
Since 2016 an updated version of SMEAN is available, SMEAN2. It is determined using the same procedure as for SMEAN but includes newer models: S40RTS (Ritsema et al. 2011), GyPSUM-S (Simmons et al. 2010) and SAVANI (Auer et al., 2014).
The perturbation extensions and amplitudes are expected to decrease with depth. Since the long wavelength anomalies in the SMEAN/SMEAN2 model smooth the velocity perturbation amplitudes, the upper mantle must be approached by an extra model. For the shallow mantle up to 410 km, the SL2013sv model (Schaeffer and Lebedev, 2013) is considered. The vertical shear wave velocities are derived from automated multimode inversion of surface and S-wave forms and has the same horizontal resolution as the SMEAN models ranging from 20 km to 660 km depth. The depth intervals are irregular between 16 and 100 km.

A week ago it was too hot. Last night it snowed. Must be fall.
Two of these photos deserve explanation.
The Batmobile getting towed. When Carly and I went climbing a few weeks ago, my truck started making this high pitched blubbery noise on the way out of town. It got worse, so we turned around. I stalled out at Huffine and 23rd, and my battery died. So, I got a $75 tow to Fosters, and Carly, Boots and I walked to get Carly's little blue car. Backpacking thought our own town, time slowed down … for a minute.
Then I forked over $125 for a new serpentine belt tensioner, and we took Carly's rig to Gallatin Canyon and climbed Flotsam and Jetsam, an ass-kicking route that may be the Canyon's best 5.10.
And the trash bag. When my mother thinks someone is really attractive, she says, "So-and-so would look good in a trash bag." Well, Rose made that bag look really good.
We went to the Clarky last weekend for Dirt Fest 2011 part II, and spent two days rappelling fixed ropes, hacking at the moss, lichen and briars, and trundling giant boulders into the river. Rose forgot her rainjacket, so fitted herself with this useless but cute number to ward off the storm that never came. I think our route is going to be good. And clean. And a little scary. I haven't led the first pitch yet.

Camping in Lake Garda
Lake Garda is the largest of the Italian lakes and in summer its clear blue waters make for delightfully refreshing swimming. With olive and citrus groves fringing its shores, the hills of the south give way to majestic mountains in the north, creating regular breezes that make Lake Garda perfect for sailing and water sports.
Lake Garda is surrounded by some of Italy's top wine producing areas and is famous for its lemons, olive oil, and freshwater fish, all found in local cuisine.
With lots of flights available to regional airports, Holidays to Lake Garda make a terrific choice for a short break: or why not combine Lake Garda with one of our French campsites for a fabulous multi-centre holiday?
Verona A beautiful and romantic city – it is where Shakespeare set Romeo and Juliet after all – Verona dates back to the Romans. Operas are staged in the Arena di Verona, one of the best-preserved Roman amphitheatres in the world, and the forum has become the Piazza delle Erbe, a rich confection of Medieval and Renaissance buildings.
Gardaland Italy's largest magical theme park is set out in realms of history, geography, space and fantasy, and offers many exhilarating rides: from the Blue Tornado to the Sequoia Adventure. A themed aquarium is home to thousands of marine creatures, recreating habitats from the Red Sea to the Indian Ocean.
Monte Baldo As if Lake Garda isn't breathtaking enough from the water's edge, take a ride on the cable car to experience the stunning views from the top of Monte Baldo. Be prepared for the cabin to turn through 360 degrees as it reaches the upper sections of the route.
Malcesine The starting point for the cable car is the small town of Malcesine, where the impressive castle houses a natural history museum and offers wonderful views from the revelino (artillery platform) and the top of its imposing square tower. This is a popular area for windsurfing.
Sirmione The spa town of Sirmione stands on a peninsula at the southern end of Lake Garda. As well as mud baths and massages you can visit the moated castle, take ferry trips to other towns around the lake, or just enjoy the shops – especially the amazing gelateria… The Grotte di Catullo is a vast ruined Roman villa, named after the poet Catullus.
Limone sul Garda A simple building set in an olive grove, the San Pietro church is believed to be one of the oldest places of worship in the area, and contains some beautiful 13th and 14th century frescoes. Visit the famous walled lemon houses and buy a bottle of the local cold-pressed olive oil to take home.
To find your perfect campsite in Lake Garda please use our interactive site finder, call our knowledgeable customer advice team on 01 242 1901, or go straight to the individual campsite pages.

Arqadia America's
National Award in Graphic Design
— Aug 2016
The Panamerican Federation of Associations of Architects
Community of Architecture, Construction and Design of Latin America
The Client
Fabrix is the first 3D printing concept store in South America, founded in 2014. It offers a wide range of services that go from 3D printing, scanning, model prototyping and software education to the both physical and online sale of 3D printers and supplies.
The client carries out since 2003 a company called Danston S.A. which is in the business of importing supplies and accessories for inkjet and laser printing. The idea of importing 3D printers is born from the client in 2014, after visiting a printing trade show in China and forseeing its potential in the Uruguayan market.
The Challenge
By identifying the trend that would manifest in South America and the rest of the world about a year later, the client commissioned Suiza de America to create a Danston sub-brand, that would include the 3D printing products as a new category within the company.
Our role as creators of the brand would consist of carrying out a naming process, creating an online and offline visual identity system and defining a communications and marketing strategy for the correct implementation of the new brand in the market.
The Audit
Positive Impressions
- Notion of what existed in the 3D printing world.
- Investment capital available.
- Enough time to develop the brand holistically.
- True interest from the client to be market leader.
- Local market in quasi-virgin state.
- Worldwide "hype" about 3D printing.
Negative Impressions
- Clear business plan not developed.
- No experience selling to end consumer or target audience.
- Enough know-how of 3D printing not yet available.
- 3D tech sounds daunting to the target audience.
- Product price point too high for local market.
The Conclusions
We concluded that it was necessary to separate Danston S.A. from the new venture since it was about a different technology and aimed at a different audience.
Regarding the international situation of 3D printing, we verified that there was indeed a trend in which the engagement of the mass audience in the creation of consumer products was exponentially growing. Activities related to the sector didn't depend on hardware or software, but on people, their culture and their individual needs. Depending on the geographical location and its market habits, the companies (franchises in some cases) offered from online services to manufacturing in situ, classes or workshops and both online and offline communities with a strong DIY spirit. In all cases, all the activities available were aimed at 'materialising ideas' in a highly social way.
As for the local situation, we found that the new venture had a unique opportunity to be pioneer in the Latin American market and the main drivers of this technology if it offered an integrated proposal. At that time, there were no suppliers of an all-inclusive 3D printing experience, but small companies in experimental phase.
The Strategy
Since the venture did not initially have a defined business plan, a large part of the brand's development was to help the client create it. We concluded that a unique visual style was needed in order to cater to the three defined target audiences: kids in school years, design/architecture academia and adult tech/DIY aficionados.
Social media, direct pitches to academic institutions and an online store were defined as the key communication channels . We also determined the need to create a series of partnerships with other businesses and/or sponsor events relevant to the target audience to be able to access the market quickly.
The Design Solution
The name Fabrix, a neologism, is chosen, which represents the way in which 3D printing allows to obtain products at home that used to be mass produced in a factory. It also recalls the action of making, sounds active and it can be associated with manual work.
As for the logotype, the Fabrix wordmark is based on the multiplicity of processes and results that can be obtained with 3D printing. Each character shows different ways of portraying three-dimensionality on a two-dimensional surface. This mimics the process our eyes and brain have to carry out so we can comprehend depth.
To focus the attention on the morphological, the logo is presented in a grayscale palette. The colour versatility that can be obtained with 3D printing is represented by ample fields of colour blocking and a series of geometrical multicoloured patterns. Each pattern is based on the shape of an individual letter of the brand name.
Colours are not selected arbitrarily, but "eyedropped" from the imagery of the brands that Fabrix imports products from. This allows the Fabrix brand to live seamlessly among a huge selection of logos and graphics, while making everything feel part of the same universe.
The brand was successfully introduced in the local market, becoming a benchmark in the sector, both for architecture, engineering, design students and the mass audience (with custom printing services) as well as at the corporate level (with the sale of printers and supplies for schools and universities, and also for the construction and product development industries).
The Effectiveness
Strategic partnerships proved to be very useful and fruitful both for the economic repercussions by having access to new potential customers and for the positive media exposure received.
An example was the linking with the National Union of the Blind (UNCU), allowing students to experiment via 3D printed maps, the geography and topography of the world. This responds to one of the biggest failures in education in Uruguay for people with visual impairment: the study of science at elementary and secondary level.
Another example was the partnership with the Montevideo shopping mall and Disney/Pixar for the premiere of the movie "Planes". Fabrix gave children 3D-printed airplanes to decorate while simultaneously learning. An alliance with the IBEC educational centre was achieved to provide courses in 3D design and prototyping, again becoming a pioneer in the market by offering professional training in the field.
These actions, as well as effective campaigns in social media, has resulted in 14,200 followers and a review of 4.8 on Facebook (data from 2016).

Seasonal Hydrography and Hypoxia of Coos Bay, Oregon
O'Neill, Molly
MetadataShow full item record
O'Neill, Molly
The recent rise of inner shelf hypoxia in the California Current System has caused concern within the scientific community, sparking a surge in studies addressing the issue. While regional studies of hypoxia abound, relatively little attention has been focused on the smaller coastal estuarine systems in the Pacific Northwest. Here, we present results from Coos Bay, a small, highly seasonal estuary on the southern Oregon coast. Due to wide fluctuations in freshwater input, Coos Bay exhibits characteristics of a salt-wedge type estuary in the winter, a well-mixed estuary in the summer, and a partially-mixed estuary during times of moderate discharge. Despite a strong coupling with coastal waters, we did not find evidence for pervasive hypoxia in Coos Bay. The primary drivers of variability in dissolved oxygen levels in the estuary are upwelling wind stress, residence time, and in situ biologic processes.

�����������Ĵ�ѧ��ѧ�����У��������Ҳ�������ֹ�����һλ�������ѧ¼ȡ��ѧ���Ŀ�����������ǣ�International experience: Living in Switzerland���������λͬѧ��������95�֣������п���������������һ����������һ������һ����ƪ���£�
��Je deteste des Americains,�� said the old Swiss woman sitting across from me. Her face contorted into a grimace of disgust as she and her friend continued to complain that Americans had no culture, that they never learned another language, and that their inferior customs were spreading throughout Europe like an infectious disease. Each hair on the back of my neck sprang to attention, as I strained to hear the women��s inflammatory remarks. I gripped my bag of McDonald��s harder with each insulting phrase.
I had been living in Geneva, Switzerland for four years, during which time I had attended an international school consisting of over 96 different nationalities. I had already become fluent in French and had become accustomed to the new culture in which I was living��a culture which I had believed to be rich in tolerance and acceptance. Naturally, the women��s remarks hurt. Was I really an ��ugly American?�� Did I have no appreciation of anything other than McDonald��s or Coca-Cola? Had I not been touched by the new world I had been exposed to?
Without question, my four years in Switzerland changed my life in countless ways. From the minute I stepped off the plane at Cointrin Airport, the vastly different sights along the clean street, the ubiquitous smells of rich delicious French cuisine, and my feelings of excitement about my new surroundings told me that I definitely was ��not in Kansas anymore.�� My school helped greatly in modifying my attitudes, as for the first time I was with peers from countries which I had only read about. Although it was sometimes difficult trying to find links between my self and my Saudi Arabian, Hungarian, French, Nigerian, or Chilean friends, I soon came to enjoy my new stir fry environment. By the time I left, I was wondering how I ever could survive the boredom of attending a homogeneous institution. This is not to say that, prior to this, I had been closed up in a bland box of a world. I had traveled to India, my father��s home, and England, my mother��s home, annually: a practice my family and I continue to this day. I had been brought up without specific religious beliefs, but an awareness of my parents�� spiritual backgrounds of Judaism and Hinduism. Thus my exposure to these various different nationalities in Switzerland built on my foundations of cultural awareness, rather than laying the cornerstone for it.
My understanding of my new environment was aided tremendously by my ability to speak French, and was subsequently one of the best gifts I brought back from my four year stay in Switzerland. An entire year of school lessons could not have taught me as much of the language as I learned from speaking with my Swiss friends, shopping in the local stores, or apologizing o my neighbors for hitting my ball into their yard. My proficiency in French earned me a regular spot on a nationally broadcast Swiss radio program, in which a Russian child and I discussed tensions between major world powers. This was a rare opportunity, as, although Stephen and I were peers, the fact that Russian children attended the Soviet Embassy school meant that we were not classmates. Though, even if we had been allowed to speak casually before, I am not certain that our conversation would have reached the depth of discussion we achieved on the show.
America will never again seem the same to me. Geneva gave me enough distance to look at my country through objective eyes. Traveling throughout Europe was like a trip with Gulliver: it gave me the ability to look inside myself and discern my country��s faults as well as its numerous strengths. Like the Swiss women��s remarks, it hurt me to find that the United States is not the only country in the world with a rich and stimulating environment. With my new perspective, I saw that America was not what it had been. Then I thought for a moment and realized that America had not changed, but I had.

According to reports, 7.5 million children under the age of 13 are on Facebook. A whopping 5 million are under the age of 10! These numbers came from the number of parents who admitted that they were aware that their under aged child had a Facebook account. It may be fair to assume that this number is low because many children have Facebook accounts without their parents knowledge.
A report indicates that Facebook kicks out 20,000 under aged users every day! This is a minute amount of children when you think about the fact that 7.5 million are underage.
If Facebook sets an age limit for its users for the safety of its members, why are so many parents allowing their under aged children to get Facebook accounts? My answer to this question is one word. ENTITLEMENT!! These parents go through life acting as if rules don't apply to them and they are teaching their children the same thing. Can we expect these children to drive their parent's cars before they have a drivers license? Maybe these children will be drinking alcohol before they turn 21 at their parents urging.
There are rules and laws in society to protect our children and we as responsible parents should abide by them. The risk of cyberbulleying is high and children under the age of 13 will have a harder time dealing with it than children who are older and more mature. The threat of predators and identity theft are also issues of concern. I personally think that the Facebook accounts for anyone under the age of 18 should be on lock down. There should not be an option to share the information of anyone who is not an adult.
If parents allow their child to have a Facebook account, they should monitor the account. Parents should talk to their child about how to use Facebook. They should talk to their child about appropriate and inappropriate information to share on Facebook. I know some parents don't believe in violating their child's privacy. Your child's safety is important, so you might want to look at their Facebook account, every now and then. It is very easy for your child to accept a friend request from someone that they don't know. Your child can be on Facebook chatting and sharing information with a complete stranger without your knowledge.
I find it very sad that so many parents are willing to let their child have a Facebook account at an age younger than the company recommends. Most of the parents that I know, don't monitor their children's Facebook accounts. Facebook has implemented policies that restrict children under the age of 13 from acquiring a Facebook account and parents are dismissing those policies. Some people think that Facebook isn't being responsible enough but apparently the parents of 7.5 million children think that they are too strict with their policies.

Grand Rapids, I Love You
January 31, 2010 at 3:08 pm 1 comment
Dear Grand Rapids,
You've been a really dear friend to me these past 17 months. In fact you really made time fly since I didn't even realize that it had been 17 months in this relationship. But the truth is that we've really grown apart and it might be time for us to say our goodbyes.
You gave me so many good memories and I've met some wonderful people through you. I mean, come on, you gave me the Ritz Koney. Not many cities could give me something so wonderful.
I'll miss late night walks down your streets with my friends. And Thursday TV nights full of laughs. Not to mention your delicious sushi on Monroe Center. I'll always remember the ball drop on NYE downtown. Thank you for our kitty. She's really been a blessing. Who else would get my boyfriend trashed on his 22nd birthday but you? Oh, good times. Good times.
But let's face it. You just don't have the job market to keep me here anymore. And as much as it kills me to have to leave you, I have to do what's best for me. It's not your fault that Chicago just has a job to give me and an apartment comparable in size to this one. And I'll always appreciate you as my first real relationship with a city. Thank you for everythings.
PS – for those of you reading this who don't know already: I GOT THE JOB IN CHICAGO AND I'M MOVING TOMORROW!!!!

Congratulations, good luck, and good bye from a fellow Grand Rapidian. I'll look you up when I visit Chicago!

Georgie Anne Geyer, a journalist known for her interviews with foreign leaders - including some of the more infamous dictators of the world - sees cats as a wonderful part of world culture.
Geyer said the history of the cat can be found in early cultures throughout the world as gods who are worshiped for their beauty, perceived powers and as the beings that transport souls into the afterlife. Geyer tells the story of the cat and its place in history in her new book, "When Cat's Reigned Like Kings: On the Trail of Sacred Cats."
"I'm a lover of history and a lover of animals. It was really an extraordinary experience to put this book together," she said.
Geyer spoke about this book and her thoughts on world affairs during a packed luncheon lecture at North Central Michigan College Monday. The event, sponsored by the North Central Michigan College Foundation and the Petoskey News-Review, was a fund-raiser for the foundation's scholarship fund.

No sooner had the new Elmbridge Liberal Democrat coalition got into office than Surrey announced in was to cut funding – in-year – to social services. Elmbridge has a long record of supplying a higher level social care for the elderly than other parts of the country and this is because Elmbridge provides many services directly.
Fortunately, despite these Surrey cuts Elmbridge has been able to maintain the services almost intact. This is because of good husbandry by the previous Conservative administration in Elmbridge – credit where it is due – and the flexibility and imagination of Elmbridge staff.
It might be time to consider radical new ways to provide services for the elderly in the near future. The last thing we want to do is to slowly salami-slice funding of the present arrangements.

Blank Slate
Well… It's been four months now since I last did a blog post. A lot has happened in the last four months: I moved to a new city, started a business, and made some serious relationship decisions. The last four months also made me re-evaluate my relationship with health and fitness. When I first moved, I didn't have time to blog or be involved with the fitspo/fitblr community but, once I was settled, I realized I needed to take a break from it. Uprooting from my hometown to start a business in a new city also meant uprooting my entire lifestyle and completely ditching my comfort zone. It also meant my entire routine was out the window and my regular workouts and healthy eating were soon to follow. What this made me realize was that my lifestyle was just a habit and didn't have a strong foundation. For me this meant I needed to take some time to really think things through and start building that strong foundation.
Turns out building a strong foundation is easier said than done and has been something that I've been figuring out for the last four months. Part of the reason it took me so long to figure it out is that I'm lazy and I realized that I would need to do things that weren't easy. However, it eventually got to the point where I also realized that my life was in stasis; time was going forward and I was just watching it go by. This was my quiet but significant wakeup call. I have goals, I have ambition, there are things I want to do and achieve and I won't be able to do that unless I actually do something to achieve them. I am not okay with letting my life happen, I want to be present and I want to live it.
Once I realized this, it was time to start making some changes. To start I had to decide what it was that I valued most. At first this starts pretty easy with things like: family, my relationship, my health, being happy, etc. That's all fine and dandy, but then you have to figure out exactly what those values mean to you and in what way you value them. When it comes to family and my relationship, I already had things figured out as I found those a bit easier. I like to call those values external because they are between my and another person/people. Obviously they still require work and nothing worth having comes easy, but I have been actively working on my relationship since it began and I have always worked on having a good relationship with my family as well. For me, the difficult part was figuring out what being healthy means to me and what I need to do to be happy.
Going forward I want to continue to blog. Part of it is to keep myself accountable and to keep my values aligned, but part of it is to share information. After being part of the fitblr/fitspo community for six years I've realized there isn't a lot of authenticity or honesty. From what I've observed in the community is that there is too much focus on perfection and people don't acknowledge their failures until they have succeeded. Going forward I want to share more about my own personal experiences, not that I think there is a "right way" to live but to share a perspective. I am also passionate about living healthy and educating people about things such as nutrition and mental wellbeing, so I plan to do posts on those as well. This blog is not about weight loss or achieving a certain "body ideal". This blog is about building a healthy, happy, and balanced lifestyle.

There are over 2.7 million people in the UK living with coronary heart disease. Heart and circulatory disease remains the UK's biggest killer and still claims one in three lives every year.
Derby is one of the first 50 places in the UK to become a Heart City, offering people practical steps to improve their heart health. We have teamed up with the British Heart Foundation (BHF) and NHS Derby and Derbyshire to work together on a range of exciting plans to increase people's knowledge about what causes heart disease, how it can be prevented, and how to aid recovery. We will help raise awareness about coronary heart disease, its causes, treatment and prevention. Derby's Heart City status will initially last for a five-year period.
Coronary heart disease is the biggest cause of death in Derby and having high blood pressure and diabetes doubles the risk of heart disease. Around 50,000 heart patients are treated at the Royal Derby Hospital every year.
As a Heart City we hope to bring the community together to tackle heart health and improve the lives of every single person living in Derby.
We also hope to raise funds for the Mending Broken Hearts Appeal which was launched in 2011 to celebrate the BHF's 50th anniversary. The appeal is one of the charities most ambitious projects ever. Its goal is simple – to fund the research that could begin to literally 'mend broken hearts'.
Every single day 340 people have their lives shattered by a heart attack. For many, this can lead to severe heart failure, a condition that cuts short thousands of lives every year. But now scientists have the first real hope that these lives could be saved. At the moment, there's no cure for a broken heart. Once your heart muscle is damaged by a heart attack, it can never fully recover. But there is hope. This ground-breaking research will help us to learn how to teach the human heart to 'heal itself'.
The BHF has committed to spending £50 million over the next five years to make this happen however they can't do it without your help. Please help give hope to hundreds of thousands of heart failure patients across the UK and support the appeal.
You can support Derby Heart City and raise funds to help mend broken hearts. Find out how you can host your own fundraising event with friends, family or colleagues.
You can also volunteer in shops or at fundraising events.
One of the best ways to help prevent and treat coronary heart disease is to adopt a healthy lifestyle. Some of the ways to reduce the risk are by:
Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels can all be helped by switching to a healthier lifestyle.
Visit the Take Heart Derby website to find out more about support for heart patients, their families and carers. Take Heart (Derby) is the local heart support group affiliated to the British Heart Foundation.

Magee captures some of the energy and verve of Dickinson's best poetry, using Internet searches to more or less re-construct her work. Imagine Dickinson as a 21st-century flarfist. Here's Magee's poem "142":
Baby has ripped — up Her nightie!
"A sustained — Work — Of Terror —
Elegant, sensual, erotic, bloody!"

It's fun, exciting, surprising stuff, but there's a certain same-ness to the poems (this is one of the best), which start to seem indistinguishable very quickly, even though they continue to hold interest.

Garner: Opinion
Editorial: Leaving it all out on the track
Johnston County came as close this weekend as it ever has to sending an athlete to the Olympic Games. Neither Keni Harrison or Johnny Dutch made the Olympic squad, despite being favorites in their events.
Life is cruel that way, sometimes.
But the fact that they did not make the final cut in no way diminishes the level of commitment these two athletes have shown to perfecting their skills. Competition is always fierce and nowhere is it more challenging than in an event that only comes around once every four years.
Time will tell if either athlete gets another shot at Olympic glory. In our hearts, we all hope they will try again. But sometimes, what we want in our hearts, our bodies can't produce.
Though the results weren't what anyone around these parts wanted, we can all be proud of the effort they gave.
And, if it is any consolation to them, Harrison and Dutch can know that everyone around Clayton, Cleveland and Garner was really rooting for them and remains proud of them.

Wales has a rich inheritance of historic parks and gardens. They form an integral part of the historic and cultural fabric of our country. Their importance is recognised in the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2016, which requires the Welsh Ministers to compile and maintain a statutory register of historic parks and gardens in Wales.
The statutory register will come into force during 2019. It will incorporate the existing non-statutory Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in Wales, which was first published in six county volumes between 1994 and 2002. A supplementary volume was published in 2007 and nearly 400 sites have been registered.
Registered sites are graded I, II* and II in the same way as listed buildings. Approximately 10 per cent of sites are grade I and 23 per cent grade II*. Parks and gardens on the register range from medieval to late twentieth century. Many are multi-period with features of different styles and periods.
The register supports the protection and conservation of historic parks and gardens, but it need not be a barrier to change. Conservation is about the careful management of change: finding the best way to protect and enhance the special qualities of a site so that present and future generations can appreciate and enjoy it. It is important not to let insensitive development harm the historic and visual character of historic parks and gardens.
Statutory registration will not be accompanied by any new consent regime. Registered parks and gardens will continue to be afforded protection through the planning system as set out in Planning Policy Wales. The local planning authority consults Cadw on applications affecting registered parks and gardens and/or their settings. The local planning authority may also consult the Welsh Historic Gardens Trust.
In preparation for the introduction of the statutory register, Cadw has undertaken a thorough review of the boundaries of all registered historic parks and gardens. Before the commencement of the statutory register in 2019, we will consult with owners and occupiers on the results of those reviews and any boundary adjustments that may be required. After the register comes into force, information about registered sites will be made available on Cof Cymru, Cadw's online resource for national historic assets.
Download the FAQs at the bottom of the page for further information on the statutory register. Follow the related link for guidance on the management of change to historic parks and gardens.
Any enquiries in connection with historic parks and gardens should be addressed to:

Rap video hits a nerve
A Muslim group in Nigeria is calling on musician Falz to withdraw his video for the single 'This is Nigeria' within seven days and issue and apology. 'It is a hate video... It is an assault on the self-dignity of every Muslim,' said Ishaq Akintola, who heads the Muslim Rights Concern. A report on the News24 site notes that Falz's video is inspired by US rapper Childish Gambino's 'This is America' clip, which launches a scathing attack on police violence, racism and gun culture in America. Falz portrays the ills he sees in Nigeria, including those at the top of society benefitting from political and financial corruption while young people struggle to make a living.

Sweet knowledge is necessary treat
by LISA PREJEAN
August 4, 2006
The average cow produces seven gallons of milk a day. In order to do that, the cow eats a heaping wheelbarrow full of food and drinks a bathtub full of water every day. The cow needs to be milked twice a day, usually very early in the morning and again in the afternoon. Betsy Herbst likes to share facts like these as she teaches about the roles farmers play in today's society. A 4-H leader, Herbst is chairwoman of the Ag Room at Discovery Station at Hagerstown Inc. In the room, children can learn about the work that goes into growing the food we eat. "You have to explain to them that this stuff doesn't originate from the grocery store," says Herbst, who lives on a dairy farm in Ringgold, where she works with her husband, David Herbst.
Enjoy safe, homemade ice cream
Lynn Little
July 20, 2011
Eating ice cream to beat the summer heat is one of America's favorite pastimes. Homemade ice cream can be a special treat, but it can also become a threat because of salmonellosis. While commercially manufactured ice cream is typically made with pasteurized eggs or egg products, recipes for homemade ice cream often use raw eggs in the base mixture. If your favorite ice cream recipe uses uncooked eggs, it is time to replace or revise it. Those raw eggs may contain salmonella bacteria that can cause foodborne illness.

Ice cream vendors scoop for schools
By DANA BROWN
July 24, 2010
CHAMBERSBURG, Pa. -- Nothing goes down better on a sweltering summer day than a big scoop of ice cream. Better yet is several scoops of ice cream. And the best of all is eating as many scoops of ice cream as you can. Close to 300 people found that ultimate pleasure Saturday as six local ice cream vendors scooped up 25 flavorful offerings at the Greater Chambersburg Chamber Foundation's inaugural Scoop-a-Palooza. Adults paid $6 and children ages 12 and younger paid $3.50 for the opportunity to try a wide variety of flavors such as black raspberry, peach cobbler, chocolate eclair, blueberry cobbler, chocolate peanut butter buckeye, brownie bliss, strawberry cheesecake, cotton candy explosion, black forest and more.

By JULIE E. GREENE | firstname.lastname@example.com
August 27, 2013
Valley Pride LLC, a group of 21 family farms based in the Harrisonburg, Va., area, has purchased the former Good Humor-Breyers ice-cream plant in Hagerstown and plans to begin milk and ice-cream production this fall, according to a company official. Randy Inman, vice president of Valley Pride and Shenandoah Family Farms Cooperative, declined to say how much the cooperative paid for the property. During a ceremony Tuesday, at which Hagerstown and Washington County officials joined company officials in making the announcement about the purchase of the plant, Inman said it's been "a long, hard road." The farmers have worked diligently to try to "fulfill this lifelong dream of ours to own our own processing facilities," he said.

August 20, 2013
On Tuesday, Maryland Agriculture Secretary Buddy Hance tried a sample of the Mango Wine Sorbet at Misty Meadow Farm near Smithsburg.

Misty Meadow Farm is one of the trail's eight dairy farms across the state that produce ice cream and sell it directly to customers. He said each farm has something that sets it apart.
Grilled fruit takes on a new flavor
August 18, 2013
Fruit takes on a whole new flavor when kissed by fire and flame. Once the subtle sweetness caramelizes on the surface of the fruit, it makes for a delicious treat ready for dessert or a sweet side with your favorite grilled protein. I'm going to take baby steps in grilling, going from an easy recipe and building up to more complex recipes featuring sauces to accompany the tender, grilled fruit. As always, feel free to make the recipe your own by adding your own fruit to the mix. - Scott C. Anderson is associate food service director and chef with Shepherd University dining services in Shepherdstown, W.Va., and chef ambassador to the Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board.

The history of ice cream is a sweet tale to tell
July 8, 2013
July is National Ice Cream Month. Many people like me will invent reasons to eat ice cream. This is the month the mercury flirts with 100, so why not eat ice cream? I am sure in our hurried work-a-day world, few people take time to make their own ice cream anymore. I am also sure if you asked someone if they have an ice cream freezer, they would look puzzled and say "no," but they have them in the grocery store. So where did ice cream come from? Sit back and learn the story or lore, if you will.
The best teamworks takes place off the court

There's a scene in "The Sound of Music" that came to mind last weekend. The scene captures the children's personalities as Maria meets them for the first time. The Captain has the children line up and step forward as he makes each one's sound on his whistle. They state their names, ages and tell Maria a little bit about themselves. Louisa, the 13-year-old, tries to pass for Brigitta, one of the younger girls. She wants to see if Maria was paying attention when they were first introduced.
