|Ol' Rodan homing in on "Shields of the First Age" (GC2NTA9)
Needed exercise. Got exercise. Tired. Sore. My feets have warned me they will walk me no farther this day.
It started early. Headed out to Burlington to meet Mr. Robbin "Rtmlee" Lee so that we might snag a number of geocaches we both needed — two in particular — first at the Caswell Game Lands up the road a ways, and then over to Danville, VA. Out of a fair number of hides in the expansive game lands, we both lacked only one: a puzzle cache called "Shields of the First Age" (GC2NTA9), based on certain Elvish lore from Tolkien's The Silmarillion. (See "Middle Earth in Caswell County," Sunday, March 12, 2011, to read about our first adventure out there.) I had labored long and hard to decipher the runic symbols on the cache page, and after a nudge in the right direction from a friend who'd solved the puzzle, I finally got the hang of Elvish math. Upon reaching the game lands, we had a mile hike out to ground zero, the latter part of which offered a fair incline to negotiate, but that was naught, naught I tell you, compared to the mental challenge of this cache. Fortunately, the container was easily found; we slapped our monikers on the log, made the hike back to our vehicle, and set out for Danville. Along the way, we received a call from our geocaching friend Larry "HDJP" Roach, who was coincidentally heading for Danville at the same time from a different direction. Thus, we made plans to meet him at our other main target cache — "Dick's Downer" (GC3NVM4)
Before the next big one, Rob and I stopped for a couple of hides near the Danville Riverwalk, and who should we stumble upon but another of our geocaching buddies, Mr. Keith "KeithandLaura" McCoy. He was also keen on heading over to Dick's Downer, so after we finished our business at the Riverwalk, we hit the road for Dick's. The cache description gave us the crucial information about prerequisite equipment — things like bright flashlights or headlamps, waterproof boots, and maybe a change of clothing. Sure enough... once we reached ground zero, we saw that it clearly presented us with the expected terrain challenge. Just before we made our way into the subterranean darkness, I spied something in the water that looked rather familiar. No way, I thought... I mean, it just didn't seem even a little bit likely. So I let the thing be, and on into the dank darkness we crept. Now, I've got to tell you, I've enjoyed some caches of this type, but this one required a few interesting physical challenges that really made it stand out (imagine the old man playing Tarzan deep in the underground). It wasn't long before Mr. Lee spotted the hide, but it was... how you say... incomplete. Blimey! That thing I had seen out in the water — it sure enough was a piece of the cache! So, Mr. Keith and I backtracked, and he went out to see if he could find the thing. Happily, he soon did. So after putting in a new logsheet, he brought the container piece back in to me, and I relayed it to Mr. Lee at the cache site. Finally, we managed to get it all back together, as it was intended to be. Clearly, I should have just recognized the thing for what it was at the beginning, but that would have deprived us of half the trip's adventure. In the end, Dick's proved an enjoyable highlight of the day, and it was also a mini-milestone for me — cache find #5,800.
There were several more caches to be found over the course of the day — after a superdynawhoppin' bison burger at Ham's — so, yes, at the end of it all, my feets were uttering the uncooperative stuff I related up top. They did get a nice break this evening when Ms. B. came round so we could watch The Evil Dead II, which I've not seen in years.
Done. Ripped. Fini.
|Rodan cooling off at the entrance.
|Nothing satisfies one after a long hard day on the trail more than a big old burger of bison.
|Railing against the man, is that it? Found on the Cane Creek Parkway, Danville, VA. Left it as found...

Numbness in your Feet or Legs Could Signal Trouble
Home > News > Numbness in your Feet or Legs Could Signal Trouble
Published on March 01, 2017
Call 215-248-8145 for more information or to schedule a consultation.
Peripheral neuropathy is the medical term for any sort of disease of the nervous system in the arms or legs. An estimated 20 million Americans now have some form of the condition, which occurs as a result of any sort of damage to the peripheral nervous system. The most common cause of the condition in the U.S. is diabetes and other conditions related to high blood sugar. As the incidence of diabetes increases, so too will the incidence of complications from that disease. Symptoms can range from a feeling of numbness and tingling, to the most extreme cases that can cause respiratory or organ failure. If you or a loved one is at risk for neuropathy, here's what you need to know.
"Peripheral nerves send sensory information back to the brain and spinal cord, such as a message that the feet are cold," said Andrew Berta, M.D., family medicine. "Damage to the peripheral nervous system interferes with these critical connections, almost like static on a telephone line."
In diabetic neuropathy, nerve damage occurs in an ascending pattern. The first nerves to malfunction are the ones that travel the furthest from the brain. Pain and numbness are typically felt first in both feet, followed be a gradual progression up the legs. Later, the fingers, hands and arms may become affected. Symptoms are often worse at night.
In addition to pain and numbness, other symptoms of peripheral neuropathy may include:
While diabetes is the most common risk factor for peripheral neuropathy, the condition can also be caused by physical trauma, kidney disorders, alcohol abuse, autoimmune diseases, and certain infections or cancers.
"The pain associated with nerve damage is often difficult to control," says Dr. Berta. "Effective treatment that gives the patient relief from symptoms depends heavily on identifying and treating the underlying cause. The earlier the patient seeks advice and treatment, the better chance we have to manage or reverse the condition."
In addition to a thorough physical exam, lifestyle review and lab tests, your physician may rely on a variety of test to determine the type and extent of neuropathy, including:
Treatment of peripheral neuropathy is focused on managing the underlying condition causing the neuropathy and relieving symptoms to help patients maintain their quality of life. Addressing the underlying condition is the most effective way to manage or reverse the condition. And there is exciting and emerging research around the use of certain medications to prevent, or even reverse, symptoms of peripheral neuropathy.
Most importantly, don't ignore pain or numb feelings in your feet or legs, especially if you are diabetic. Early diagnosis is the key to reducing the impact of neuropathy on your life. If you need assistance in diagnosing or managing foot or leg problems, visit MYCHESTNUTHILLDOC.COM. Dr. Berta is accepting new patients at Chestnut Hill Family Practice located adjacent to the Hospital.
Chestnut Hill Hospital (CHH) is a community-based, university-affiliated, teaching hospital committed to excellent patient-centered care.

A company proposing to redevelop the South Street Seaport in Lower Manhattan may be running out of ways to please local politicians, who keep asking for more and more changes to the plan.
"I think we're there," said David Weinreb, CEO of the Howard Hughes Corporation, when asked if the company would soon run out of concessions to offer officials. "We've put everything on the table we have."
Howard Hughes's latest concession: The developer offered to reduce the height of the project's signature residential tower from 52 stories to 42 stories in an effort to appease officials, who had complained that it was out of whack with the neighborhood's other low-rise buildings.
But the revised height of the tower hasn't quelled the concerns of Councilwoman Margaret Chin, who still thinks the building is too tall. Chin has even proposed moving the tower to another location in the Financial District, where it would be surrounded by other skyscrapers.
"I can't support the proposed tower in its current form, and I can't support the development proposal overall in its current form," Chin said in a statement. "There's still a lot of work to be done to make sure this plan truly serves the Seaport community, and we must strongly consider alternatives to the proposed tower."
The company has already said it's prepared to invest more than $300 million in infrastructure and public improvements related to the project, which would transform the seaport into a retail, residential and community hub with a public middle school, affordable housing, a marina with births for tall ships and a locally sourced food market which would be open seven days a week. The East River Esplanade would also be extended through the seaport all the way to the Brooklyn Bridge.
Weinreb said the firm is open to suggestiion as to how its infrastructure investment should be allocated but the tower needs to stay if the project is to remain financially viable.
"There's really no other way to make this happen," Weinreb said. "There needs to be an economic driver to make all these improvements. We can build a lower building but we'd have to start taking away benefits."
The package of benefits was put together in response to months of discussions with officials, who made a series of recommendations.
The project would mean a whole new lease of life for the Seaport, which has remained eerily deserted ever since Hurricane Sandy shuttered most of its local businesses.
"We weathered 9/11 and Hurricane Sandy. Now, we're hoping that this can be an oasis rising from the ashes," said Ron Thomas, a local resident who supports the project. "Right now, the seaport is just an empty pit."
Weinreb said he's hopeful that Chin will reconsider her position once the proposal gains support.
Howard Hughes is slated to present its proposal to Community Board 1's Landmarks Committee in December.

Once again, I feel the need to respond to some emails requesting my take on a sad, but rather interesting, feature story at CNN.
The headline is certainly a grabber, one that wouldn't be surprising at a "conservative" news outlet or two (or more). But it's news, sort of, when CNN is the prime MSM outlet that goes with this: "Hillary Clinton's pastor plagiarized portion of new book."
This is actually a strong feature story, even though -- as readers stressed -- it includes a sort of "this wasn't really all that big a deal" coda. What is looming in the background is a rarely discussed trend, which is that lots of preachers (past and present) have a tendency to quote all kinds of people without getting into the details about sources. Hold that thought, because we'll come back to it.
So back to that CNN report. Here is the overture:
(CNN) Hillary Clinton's longtime pastor plagiarized the writings of another minister in a new book scheduled to be released on Tuesday.
"Strong for a Moment Like This: The Daily Devotions of Hillary Rodham Clinton," is based on emails that the Rev. Bill Shillady, a United Methodist minister, wrote to Clinton from April 2015 through December of last year. Shillady described his emails as a way to minister to a candidate in perpetual motion.
The pastor and politician formed a spiritual bond after meeting in New York in 2002. Shillady co-officiated at Chelsea Clinton's wedding in 2010, presided over Clinton's mother's memorial service and blessed her grandchildren. Clinton is a lifelong Methodist.
Clinton appears on the cover of "Strong for a Moment Like This," and wrote a foreword for the book praising Shillady and his writings. She is scheduled to appear at an event next month in New York promoting the book. A spokesman for Clinton did not respond immediately to a request for comment.
The key, however, is that Shillady failed to credit the source for some material that ended up in what CNN called an "especially emotional devotion." The source was a March 2016 blog post by the Rev. Matthew Deuel of Mission Point Community Church in Indiana.

KARACHI - Sindh police have arrested dozens of notorious dacoits and kidnappers for ransom during an operation cleanup launched in various parts of interior Sindh, a spokesman of the provincial police department revealed to The Nation here on Thursday. He said that a total of 26 notorious criminals had been arrested from various districts of interior Sindh whereas two bandits, Dost Muhammad Misrani alias Dosoo and Soharb Chandio were killed in encounters in Sukkur and Larkana districts respectively. The Sindh police had launched operations on the hideouts of dacoits in interior Sindh during the last year and, resultantly, many inaccessible areas such as Shah Bhelo Forest, Johi Forest, Raunti Forest, Keti Mumtaz and Sharifpur were cleaned up during these campaigns besides arresting the most wanted dacoits. Some of the criminals arrested during those operations included Budho Sarki having Rs 3.5 million as head money, Sadiq Narejo alias Sadhoo with Rs 3 million head money, Momin Jurio and Ameer Shah having Rs 1 million head money each. Prominent among other arrested dacoits were Abdul Qayyum Chandio, Qurban Chandio, Talib Narejo, Raz Muhammad, Ayaz Jeho, Shaman Ghaloo and Naseer Unar. Each of these seven dacoits had Rs 0.5 million head money on their arrest. However, Noor Muhammad alias Nooral, Ameer Ali, Imam Dino, Ameer Shah, Barkat and some others were also arrested from various districts of interior Sindh. The spokesman further said that police had launched a special campaign for the arrest of these proclaimed offenders/absconders and recovered huge quantity of sophisticated weapons during the operations. "The mission was accomplished successfully and police arrested 735 proclaimed offenders, 7,300 absconders and recovered 42 rifles and 1,008 other weapons during the campaign. Moreover, kidnapping for ransom in interior Sindh, which had created panic among the citizens, was effectively curbed after the notorious culprits involved in this crime were either killed or arrested", he revealed. The spokesman continued that accused Adloo Soomro, Nawaz alias Launcher and Rasool Bux alias Major Khoso were killed in Thatta district during an encounter while Manzoor Magsi and Ghulam Haider Marri were arrested in Hyderabad. The last two criminals were wanted in the kidnapping of DG Highways Munawar Junejo. Police also arrested around 37 abductors from various parts of the province busted 28 gangs involved in highway robberies and recovered huge quantity of weapons from their possession.

The average price of a serious kitchen transform within the Pacific region is $sixty nine,723 with a recoup estimate of $fifty two,377. In the Philadelphia area, according to the 2017 COST VS VALUE REPORT from Remodeling Magazine, a median value for a midrange toilet rework is $19,949 whereas a median value for an upscale lavatory remodel is $63,249.

You can save on this price by refinishing a number of the home equipment or shopping for the supplies your self.

And how much should it cost?
The other day a potential client asked for a proposal for a logo design. I send him an email with my price for a single logo mark. I explained the deliverables and process and send the email off to him. The client hasn't replied yet whether or not it's a go. Which is why I am writing this article.
I made a classic mistake.
I took things for granted, I forgot to clarify the costs and explain why it would be worth their money (or not). To clarify I will explain a little bit about pricing, which is usually not about the price, but about understanding the value of how to make an impact.
Pricing is part of a strategy, both your strategy and my strategy and should be treated with respect to our business.
A simple logo should never be just a simple logo. Investing in a logo is a conscious business decision. This decision is based on the impact you see you can make at that moment in your business. Deciding that you want to have a logo (or redesign) means you see an opportunity to communicate with more focus and clarity with your audience, that you can (re)ignite your emotional connection.
So how do you know if your investment is worth it?
You can get a logo for very cheap and sometimes even for free. You might even get a very cheap logo that actually looks pretty cool. You probably will have your say, as a client, to how cool you want it to look. But a logo is not a form of coolness and you, the client, are no logo design expert (why else would you hire a designer to do the job?).
A logo is a device that gives your audience the opportunity to connect with your brand on an emotional level (often a combination of context and channels in which the logo appears).
The logo should always be designed with your company values, vision, and mission in mind. It is a visual representation of your brand which helps communicate your message, your mission, and your story, aligned with your audience, both strategically as well as visually.
The logo (although not the only device to do so but surely a primary one) gives your audience, your ambassadors, your tribe, your niche, the opportunity to participate in your story, a chance to support your mission and show they share values with your brand.
For a mission-driven company, a logo should never just be a logo. It should be an intentionally shared statement. If you don't feel this you might want to research how aligned your company is with your mission, vision, and values.
You have to provide relevant support, guidance, and tools for your audience to carry on your story through every channel and every touchpoint. You have to make it easy for them to share your story, to show they care about your mission, and that they are a proud member of your community. Once you have this system in place you need to listen, interact, and be open for change. Especially now, brands need to keep searching for focus, clarity, and simplicity and the best way to do that is by opening up, listening, talking, and not being afraid to show your inside on your outside.
This is where you will see the value of your logo and understand the value of your investment. A logo is not just an image you get for free, or €200,-, €400,-, or €800,-. So what is the value of you logo or redesign?
What should be your priority right now?
I'm not saying that paying €800,- for a logo is always the best option. Sometimes I would even recommend starting with a cheap logo, perhaps for the first few months, sometimes even years, because it's not yet worth the investment. Your budget is sometimes better spent at finding your market and opening up channels to connect with your niche. Like I said at the start, it's a conscious business decision where you have to decide where you can create the biggest impact for your budget at that particular moment. Often, especially with early-stage startups, the first thing to invest in is a website or a place for your tribe to find you. It can also be a social media channel where your investment would be best served in ads or other ways to gather information about your audience and to show them you are there for them. It also depends on the market you are entering. The more saturated the market the more important your story and identity become in order to stand out from the crowd. As a more disruptive company, you probably should invest in your product or service more than in your branding. This is because your biggest impact is with your product or service and you want to reach and capture your audience before other companies start to copy you. Your disruptive product or service is what sets you apart, what makes you unique. Use that as your advantage. Once people are using your product or service they will less likely change to your competitor. When competitors start entering your market or when you have your product or service running smoothly and it's attracting clients it is time to focus on your essence. Who are you, who are you for? What are your values? A clear product or service placement, combined with a strong branding will make sure you outlive the competition or might even set you completely apart within the market.
- I'm purposefully saying communicated and not designed, although good design understands communication and the underlying brand strategy, but I'll leave the design part for another article.
If you are currently in a saturated market, or if you are a disruptive company and have a clear product and service, but you don't have a clear mission statement yet, haven't really got a clear picture of your company values, you are always welcome for a chat to see how you can make an even bigger impact.

Yes totally. The only catch here is that the rose bush is sometimes sprayed with pesticides so it can be harmful for use. Just take fresh rosehips and mash them and brew them into a steaming tea.

Media's Legislative Outlook
After spending the first half of the month swearing in new members and
preparing for President Bush's inauguration, Congress is set to get serious
about passing new laws.
Next week, the House and Senate Commerce Committees start debating the
rewrite of the nation's telecommunications laws. The biggest fights will be
over simplifying, or eliminating, rules forcing telephone companies to share
their networks with rival providers. Other big changes on the table would add,
not eliminate, regulation.
There is some good news for the industry: Not a single piece of
telecommunications legislation must pass this year. Below, we handicap the
chances of passage for various media provisions.
DTV deadline: The most pressing issue
facing the TV business is transition to all-digital broadcasts. All eyes are on
Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Ted Stevens (R-Alaska), who is expected to
be the deciding factor in a disagreement between his House Commerce Committee
counterpart Joe Barton (R-Texas) and FCC Chairman Michael Powell.
Barton wants to set the deadline as early as possible, preferably 2006.
Powell has said a 2009 date is necessary to allow consumers time to buy DTV
sets. Although the FCC in theory could set the date on its own, Powell risks
angering Barton unless Stevens backs him up, preferably by passing a "hard"
2009 deadline.
Outlook: There's growing consensus
among rank-and-file lawmakers that old analog channels must be reclaimed by the
government soon so they can be turned over to spectrum-hungry local emergency
services or auctioned to wireless companies. If a telecom rewrite passes this
year, a DTV deadline is certain to be included. If larger communications law
becomes too difficult to pass, a DTV subsidy will pass on its own.
Video over telephone: A huge fight is
brewing over telephone companies' bid to offer TV-quality video over Internet
lines. Their plan is to serve mostly high-income (and high-profit) customers.
To focus on these customers, phone giant SBC already has asked the FCC to
exempt video from rules requiring cable companies to serve an entire market.
FCC approval would give SBC a leg up on cable operators, which must serve
low-income (and lower-profit) neighborhoods.
Outlook: If SBC and other phone
companies make quick inroads signing up video customers, cable will insist that
anti-redlining rules on Internet video service get added to the telecom bill.
Indecency/cable à la carte:
House Telecommunications Subcommittee Chairman Fred Upton (R-Mich.) and Sen.
Sam Brownback (R-Kan.) promise to revive legislation raising fines on
broadcasters that violate the FCC's indecency restrictions. Parents groups
also are searching for a lawmaker to sponsor legislation that would allow cable
customers to refuse racy basic channels they don't want kids to see.
Outlook: As long as the networks
don't get racier, the smut police are likely to fail again. The hysteria over
indecency has dissipated, and so has momentum to crack down. But one ill-timed
f-word or sex scene, and the media's critics will get a second wind.
Media ownership: Media lobbyists and
anti-consolidation activists will beg Congress to pass opposing versions of
legislation rewriting the FCC's broadcast-ownership limits. But there's no
way Congress will change the commission's limits in any direction: Either
loosening or tightening the rules would generate an unwanted backlash from the
losing side.
Outlook: The FCC has until Jan. 31 to
request Supreme Court review of a lower-court order against its rules. If the
FCC asks the justices to take the case, the court likely will be tied up with
it for most of the current congressional session. If the FCC drops the case,
the commissioners will be obligated to spend the next year doing their own
rewrite. Either way, Congress will stay out of the fight.

How to deal with misaligned marketing efforts
—this one is for Josh
Josh works in Account Services at a SaaS software company. Working closely with the company's clients, Josh sees many clients come through the door that he feels do not really meet the company's qualifications for an ideal account. He sees this as a disconnect between marketing and sales.
From Josh's perspective the company is employing marketing as a bandaid or an afterthought, rather than applying it as a purposeful solution.
The major #MarketingProbz here is deciphering a clear direction and purpose for their marketing efforts.
#MarketingProbz? Everyone's got 'em.
I'm on a mission to help alleviate some of the confusion by doling out two minute marketing solutions to help you solve your greatest #MarketingProbz with these short videos.
To me, this appears to be an issue of classic misalignment. Josh and his company aren't alone in this struggle. Marketing misalignment is one of the most common challenges I see preventing companies of all scale from reaching their target customer and achieving their revenue goals.
In the above video, I give Josh three tactics to help his company better share 3 things that will help Josh and his company better align their marketing efforts to work for their business objectives, rather than against them.

I struggled through an hour of exercise early this morning. I'd been feeling rough before I started but normally I'd feel better after the endorphins kicked in. Not today. By the time I came to leave the house to slither through the cold grey London slush, I was sweating and apparently a strange colour. I've always been completely useless at listening to my body but in this case I couldn't ignore it. My legs buckled, head swooned and I broke into a cold sweat. I got two steps out the house and turned back. The rest of the day was then spent slipping in and out of lemsip haze to fidget on my blackberry and attempt to deal with the seemingly office unavoidable. There was so much happening at work that needed an immediate answer that it was impossible to escape it, but I was reminded of the saying my Dad often uses, 'The graveyard is full of people who were indispensible'. Anyway the calls have stopped and the fever has broken so to celebrate I thought I'd put up two pictures of my carefree grandkids I took this summer. They have yet to feel the guilt of a day off work.
Cliches in the snow
I couldn't resist a folksy blog on the snow in London. We went to bed last night and it was snowing. We woke to soft silence and a child's distant laugh. London was transformed. Schools off. No buses. Tubes non-existent. 'I'll have to work from home', said Jen with deep concern slash delight. Today the great advantage of being a twenty minute walk from work became a temporary disadvantage. There was no way I could call off work, but most of my staff had to. Still, on the way in I managed to snap some cliched snowy London pics. And after a surprisingly productive day, I headed home early to take my Ozzy Jen to Victoria Park to make her first ever snowman, actually a Snow-woman.
Living with the Mek
Chief Marcus is head of the Wisabel Clan. The Wisabels are a rich clan and the Pusobs are a poor clan. Together, these two clans make up the sixty or so residents of the village of Merengman. The hamlet lies deep in the mountains of West Papua. Markus and his tribe claimed never to have met a white man until we arrived to live with them for four months.
I was show runner for a production company called Cicada Films who make lots of great documentaries. This was one of my all time favourite gigs. It's not often you get asked to go find and then live with a tribe of (reportedly) reformed cannibals. The result was a series of eight one hour documentaries called 'Living with the Mek' or 'The World's Lost Tribes'. It was an intimate portrait of life in the village seen through the eyes of explorers Mark Anstice and Olly Steeds.
The Mekmem people are masters of their environment who have lived the same way for eight thousand years. But things are changing fast for them. The advent of the bible, tee shirts and Chinese lighters are challenging their traditional way of life. But then again with a life expectancy of forty years and an infant mortality rate of up to fifty percent, who is to say change is a bad thing?
Hide n sleep
It's been a bit like this today.

Quiet Riot: The Maker Artist making noise with Small Sculptures
The handmade can be a powerful tool, while the 'maker' movement of employing craft practices to satisfy the artistic can be an act of defiance. This is certainly the case for Canadian textile artist Rene Vandenbrink.
Based in London, Ontario, Vandenbrink seeks alternatives to the waste and want of contemporary commercial culture. A trained funeral director and a community art activist, Vandenbrink is concerned with "how our society discards so much so fast," as she puts it. "Consumerism has been detrimental to our planet and the people who are trying to exist on it. People work really hard to buy things they are going to throw away. A lot of the objects that are thrown away are still useful."
Leftovers, Vandenbrink's current exhibition at the Shoebox Gallery in Toronto, incorporates a fusion of salvaged objects with collections obtained from nature that are wound with hand-spun and hand-died yarn. Wrapped fragments of her former funeral director's uniform are juxtaposed with a kitschy assortment of inherited ceramic ducks, bells and coasters, fragments of river-side finds of wood, and a carefully arranged nest of 'Victoria's Dreads' are a few of the miniature installations used to comment on consumerism in North America.
"I don't want to engage with consumerism," says Vandenbrink. "I avoid it any way I can, and so 'making do' allows me to live comfortably without having to buy into these systems. It is a meditative practice to arrange objects, to knit, spin yarn… It protests on a quiet level. It is my way of loving the earth and trying to keep from harming it."
A 'fuck you' to the institutionalized spaces that see recent art graduates as sources of free labour, Jennifer Lorraine Fraser's Shoebox Gallery takes matters into her own hands, or rather, her own tiny apartment. "These are leftover collections that exist in my home and are being shared with others by visiting Jen's home," adds Vandenbrink. "It's always interesting to exhibit art in settings outside the white cube gallery system. I hope people in general will be more open to experiencing art in different settings."

Remember when I said I wanted to take back September and start running again? Yeah, I hoped you didn't.
My goal was to run 8 times in the last few weeks of September, not a crazy goal when you consider that I ran 1 mile every day during July. But I ran a total of 0 times in September.
The same story: excuses, moving, working, not knowing where exactly to run in my new city, #allthethings.
Fast forward 77 days from the last day I had run.
I had 45 minutes before a FaceTime hang-out with this gal. I considered taking a nap and cleaning my kitchen, but for no clear reason, I entertained the thought of going for a run.
So I went for it. Gave myself zero warning, put on my running clothes that had been neglected for far too long and hopped in the car. Once I found my trail, I allowed no time for reconsidering as I turned on a podcast, re-discovered the workout app on my Apple Watch and started running.
In the end, I ran 1.22 miles. Not the most impressive thing ever, but SO encouraging to a girl who was convinced that I'd never be able to run again, let alone get back up to 60 minutes worth of running at a time.
Now, we are nowhere near 60 minutes of running, but my body was sore in all the right places the next day and I've actually scheduled in a run for today.
So cheers to taking this thing one mile at a time. Again.
Also, please don't let me go 77 days again. 😬

Abdul Kay says he's no stranger to being online and being an attention seeker, so the exposure he gained following his 64 Bars appearance, and the subsequent praise heaped on him was everything he wanted and expected. But, it's been over a year since that bold arrival, and it's time to consolidate that strong start. His new single 'Right Now' looks set to do that.
"This new song is probably one of the more confident and ambitious songs on the [upcoming] project. You might hear it, and then you'll go 'damn, that guy makes me want to be ambitious.' It's just saying, OK, it's time. We've played around for too long. Let's get it."
"When I started the process of making the EP, the shit that was coming the easiest was very down-buzz, introspective songs. There was no kind of single. As soon as I wrote the first line [to this song] I was like, OK, I think this is the one that's gonna be the explosive one. So I just tried to put everything into that."

Hiking in Iceland: Ulfarsfell Mountain
When people look into hiking in Iceland, they usually will find information about some amazing hiking paths in some of the more remote parts of the island. Even though these hikes can be amazing, they can also be pretty difficult and require some commitment. For those who are looking an easier option, climbing Ulfarsfell mountain, located within Reykjavik city limits, is something I would definitely recommend. These are the top reasons for why I recommend climbing Ulfarsfell.
- It's inside Reykjavik. You won't need to rent a car or sign up for an expensive "tour" to get there. If you're close enough, you can walk there. Otherwise, just use the public transportation system to get there, and you can start hiking!
- It's easy. This is a perfect hike for people with children, or just anybody who would like to enjoy a nice hike without all the hard work. The slopes never get too steep and the paths are well beaten.
- The view is incredible. Make sure that you choose a clear day to climb Ulfarsfell. If you do, you will enjoy an amazing view of Reykjavik (and Mosfellsbaer, a neighboring town).
- It doesn't take up your whole day. If you're looking for an amazing view of Reykjavik, or just want to spend some time outside without having to spend your entire day doing it, this is the hike for you. It took my wife and I approximately 2 hours, from start to finish, and we had a long stop at the top where we ate our lunch.
Ulfarsfell loosely translates into "Wolf Mountain", and gets its name from the male name "Úlfar", meaning wolves. It is just below 300 meters tall, or a little under 1/3 of the height of Mount Esja.
From downtown Reykjavik to Ulfarsfell Mountain
If you're looking for an easy way to enjoy an amazing view of Reyjkavík, this is it. My wife and I love hiking in Iceland and we made this hike last week (first time for her, 3rd for me). We weren't disappointed. I'll let these photos speak for themselves and hopefully they will give you a good idea of what this hike is like.

This is as steep as it's going to get

the engine room of all other steps. If you don't have this one alive and active, some of
the other steps are going to burn you out. With prayer in your life, it's going to fuel every next
step that God has for you.
In this manner therefore pray: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed by thy name. Thy
Kingdom come, thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and they glory, forever. Amen.
Have you ever been doing something normal but then God spoke to you and changed the
experience? For example, when you go on vacation and have a moment that's unexpected,
therefore receiving a spiritual truth from it. This is God speaking to you. When we remove the
things in our life that feed us, we find ourselves in a place on panic. When panic is involved in
someone's life, they'll try things to solve the problem that they never thought they would. A
good simile to describe this is: a fish without water is a believer without prayer. Therefore, if a
person doesn't begin to fuel their life with prayer, just like a fish out of water, they'll show signs
of life and stay alive for a while. However, something will begin to dry up on the inside. Prayer
is oxygen of heaven. If you don't breathe in heaven, you start exhaling bizarre behaviors. The
things you thought Jesus had resolved in your life, they'll start to grow back up. You want to be
leading your life with God's power and connection on your side.
Prayer builds our relationship with God. It's the engine room of our calling. It breathes life into
our future. Prayer is a pivotal step in the life of a believer. Jesus begins to teach the disciples
how to pray. Matthew 6:9-13 is more than just a scripture to be repeated in prayer. This is a
lifestyle and a pattern of prayer. Therefore, he's trying to teach them that there are things you
need to have in order for your prayer life to become effective. This is the manner in which to
prayer, not the words. It's teaching you the things that bring breakthrough into your life while
also teaching you the posture of prayer. He opens by saying, "Our Father which art in heaven…"
which reminds us that we have heavenly Father who loves and cares for us. Your position in
prayer, builds confidence in your life. What is your position in prayer? It's that you are a son
and daughter. Also, you're the person that Jesus gave his life for. Therefore, we can come
boldly into the throne room of grace without any fear. Our heavenly Father's love outweighs
our behavior and performance. In fact, when you're at your worst, he's at his best. His love and
care for us, is the position we start prayer in. We can run to him in both the good and bad times because He sees all the problems, He has all the resources, He possesses all the power, but
what He's looking for is prayer. When we pray, God wants to move in your life. Majority of the
time, God will not move until his people pray. God is everywhere but his perfect will is in
heaven and he wants to release is on earth. God is saying, my kingdom, my perfect will is in
heaven but prayer is what brings that kingdom down to earth. Therefore, fill the gap between
heaven and earth with prayer. In fact, complaining isn't the language of heaven. However,
prayer is the language of heaven. Prayer is the conduit that delivered heaven to earth. He wants to put a conduit of prayer in your life that brings light into your world. When it's his will,
not my will, prayer has power. Heaven on earth happens when prayer reaches heaven. The
hardest part about prayer is being stuck in the middle. This is when your prayers have reached
heaven and you're waiting for it to be reorganized on earth. It's like you have prayed about
something and God has brought a level of peace towards it. But you're looking at it, and it
hasn't changed. In the middle of this, God is trying to develop a level perseverance. God will
promise to you that he is a prince of peace so no matter what's coming your way, you bring it
to God and pray it through, you will have a peace that will arise up within you. God will give you breakthrough on the inside before you'll get in on the outside. This process is deepening your relationship with God. When you've hit a wall, let it be your default that the first person you go to is God through prayer.
God wants to provide for you, He wants to bless you and be a part of your life. God doesn't
breakthrough in provision until we get a proper vision of what God wants us to do. Therefore,
the provision of God comes from a proper vision of God. This goes back to our Father in heaven.
We're saying, God I want your will in my life and your vision. If you're living in God's will, He'll
show up every single time but He's looking for prayer. In fact, pray specific prayers, not vague
prayers, because you serve a God who cares about specific needs. We have a God who cares
about our daily bread and he's looking for people to say what they'll believing for. However, if
God doesn't show up, maybe we didn't need what we thought we did but instead need
something different. Therefore, God will teach us how to pray through that.
Unforgiveness will block up your prayer life. In fact, it will shut it down. You can pray, but you'll
be going through the motions. If you're living in unforgiveness, God won't hear your prayers.
He's listening but there won't be any answers coming your direction because you've stocked it
up. Forgiveness starts being birthed in our hearts by Jesus in prayer. It's followed by a decision
to let go and move on. Prayer is where we find forgiveness from all of our troubles and pain.
We ask God to forgive us and we hear a Father's voice every time. Because we forgive us our
debts, as we forgive our debtors. Your prayer life will crumble when you let offense takeover.
Being offended will take you out of the will of God. Instead, God is saying, let it go because I
have forgiven you more than you'll ever know. God doesn't lead us into temptation, we do that.
However, God does deliver us from evil. He wants us to understand that there are some wars in
our lifetime that can only be tackled through prayer.
Prayer builds our faith so when temptation comes our way we have the strength to say no in
Jesus mighty name. It's saying I used to go to that well but now I go to a new one and it's called prayer. You've crossed over breakthrough in your life when its turned into praise. Keep praying until you have praise and victory on the inside of you. Always know that God is for you.

drooping leaves
I got this plant after dividing. It droops and has brown and yellowing stems. Leaves are dull and no flowers. I water by touching soil at least one time a month.
Certified GKH Gardening Expert
I'm not sure of the type of plant you are having issues with.
If the plant was newly divided, it is likely quite stressed.
Is this an indoor potted plant or outdoors in a garden bed?
Either situation, watering is very important.
Potted plants should have good quality potting soil with a adequate drainage hole.
Water requirements will vary according to the plant type.
An outdoor planting will need water daily for the first 2 weeks, then you can back off on the water.
Yellowing leaves generally indicate a watering issue, to much or to little.
Once a month is likely to little unless the plant is a cactus or succulent.

Rory is a final year medical student at King's College London, UK. He chose to study medicine to better understand the physiological processes that define optimal health. When we understand optimal, we can identify the aberrant pathways that lead to disease.
Rory hopes to use this method of thinking to identify simple interventions that can both optimise health and prevent disease. As we uncover further the effects of the relationship between our genes and our environment upon health, we see that many factors defining health are controllable with 'lifestyle medicine'.
As a student, Rory joined the society to better understand the real-world application of lifestyle medicine, discover new resources and meet established clinicians. He hopes to increase the undergraduate presence within BSLM by connecting students with clinicians at seminars and events.

ROCHESTER — Three local men were indicted in Strafford County Superior Court this month on charges stemming from an alleged car arson near Baxter Lake in July.
The grand jury handed up indictments against Jacob Doyon, 20, of 296 Crown Point Rd. in Strafford, David Gregoire, 23, of 166 Meaderboro Rd. in Farmington and Nathan Hurteau, 31, of 72 North River Rd. Apt. 3 in Epping.
Doyon and Gregoire were both indicted on two counts of arson and one count of witness tampering. Hurteau was indicted on one count of arson and one count of witness tampering.
Police said on July 13 at about 2:35 a.m., Rochester Police and Fire responded to the access road to the Baxter Lake boat launch for a report of a vehicle on fire. Police said responding personnel discovered a vehicle, later identified as a Subaru Impreza, fully engulfed in flames.
Once the flames were extinguished, police noted the vehicle had been completely burned from the inside out. It was towed from the scene.
Investigators believe the three suspects conspired to stage a theft of a Subaru Impreza (which court documents indicate belonged to Doyon's grandmother), had the vehicle set on fire, and then provided false information to law enforcement and the insurance company in hopes of receiving some form of compensation for the vehicle theft and fire. Hurteau then threatened a witness to testify falsely in the case, according to police.
Doyon was arrested on Sept. 17. Gregoire was arrested four days later. Police arrested Hurteau on Oct. 7.
All three men will be arraigned in Superior Court on Monday, Jan. 3, 2011, at 9 a.m.
An indictment is not an indication of guilt; rather it means a grand jury has found sufficient evidence to warrant a trial.

Please send an email to jeremy.tozer @ tozerconsulting.com to request a copy of our Leadership Assessment and Development brochure.
This allows us to assess skills and behaviour that do not normally always surface at work and it has been amazing to get this more complete view. This kind of contribution to personal development is invaluable". Joseph Puthussery, Cisco Asia Pacific
The costs of failing to assess and minimise 'leadership risk' — in mergers, acquisitions or during growth or change — at any level of leadership, are significant. At executive level, it is measured in billions.
Succession planning and talent management require the definition of current and future needs at the organizational and individual levels, and processes in place to close the gap and keep it closed. Some companies invest heavily in leadership development with little measurable return. Sometimes because needs have not been clearly defined, but most often because no real desire to develop has been created within the individual leader.
We will work with you to define and assess the three very different component parts of Leadership Ability: 'what', 'how', and 'thought', and to build that 'burning desire' to develop. Our experience across the UK and Europe, Asia, the USA and Australasia demonstrates that the single most powerful method of assessment (and catalyst for change) is the assessment centre (AC) or development centre (DC).
The assessment centre is a great tool to allow us to assess the characteristics and behaviours of our leaders. It has been an eye opener for me." Tony Simonson, Cisco Australia
I learned a great deal about how to lead but I probably learned as much about myself and how I relate to other people." JP Kenney, Cisco USA
The naming, positioning and transparent purpose of the Assessment Centre (AC) or Development Centre (DC) and the use of its data outputs require careful and detailed consideration. We are experts in this and will work with you to create the conditions for AC or DC success.
Typically, participants will spend a day in simulations of the major challenges of their leadership role. We usually include small team, larger group and individual activities; with actors adding realism and 'stress' to 1:1 simulations. Simulations and activities are designed to allow people to demonstrate their 'leadership ability' and may include:
Trained observers record detailed 'behavioural evidence' to give specific and meaningful feedback of examples and impact (on people and on task). 'Blind spots' become 'known', and deep self-awareness is created which is the pre-requisite for participants to leverage their strengths and develop any weaknesses. AC/DCs may stop at the detailed feedback and debrief stage (usually delivered within three days), or progress into the creation and implementation of detailed, unique and relevant personal development and action plans which emphasise 'on the job' development, not more training!

K-pop sensations BTS were pretty much the kings of the night at the 2017 American Music Awards. The insanely popular South Korean boyband beat out huge stars including Selena Gomez, Diana Ross, Christina Aguilera, Kelly Clarkson, and P!nk to become the most googled act of the night in the U.S. as the AMAs aired live from Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, California.
The boyband, made up of Jin, J-Hope, RM, Suga, Jimin, V, and Jungkook, hit the No. 1 spot on Google's list of search trends on November 19, as Soompi is reporting that the band racked up a whopping more than 1 million searches during their much talked about appearance at the award show.
In addition to setting social media on fire with thousands of tweets as they performed their hit "DNA" during the AMAs, BTS proved to be so popular with viewers that they came out above the Eagles and Diana Ross on Google's list of search trends in the United States during the ABC broadcast.
And, understandably, BTS fans were pretty excited about the news of the K-pop superstars pretty much taking over and tweeted their excitement over seeing the "Spring Day" singers land in the No. 1 spot on Google's U.S. list of trending searches.
BTS TRENDING #1 ON GOOGLE SEARCH IN THE US pic.twitter.com/zP8i0cSjVC— Saℓ | PhenomiNiaℓℓ Carrot (@smiletaegi) November 20, 2017
"Yeah no lie bts is literally #1 on trending searches in the u.s on google!! legends only!!" tweeted @taegisbabe, while another fan wrote on the social media site of their huge achievement during the AMAs, "bts really out here being the #1 google search, after 1 performance?? IM SO F***ING HERE FOR THIS."
"Famous tho!!!" added Twitter user @mistyjhope of the band. "American people started to google them curious who are those kings who just slayed on stage of AMA @BTS_twt #BTSxAMAs."
In addition to their huge Google achievement during the AMAs, the band has also been intermittently trending on Twitter since they first arrived in the U.S. last week.
As reported by AllKPop.com, fans welcomed Jin, J-Hope, RM, Suga, Jimin, V, and Jungkook to the U.S. by trending the hashtag #WelcomeToTheUSBTS on November 14 in celebration of them returning to the country. According to Korea Boo, BTS's arrival at LAX airport in Los Angeles, California, caused such hysteria that they "practically closed down the airport."
And it seems like the K-pop sensations will be making the most of their time in the U.S. over the next few days, as they've got quite a few pretty huge TV gigs coming up over the next week.
Following their huge performance at the American Music Awards on November 19, BTS will be appearing on the late-night shows The Late Late Show With James Corden and Jimmy Kimmel Live, as well as daytime talk show The Ellen DeGeneres Show, this week.

Rupee Studs
Incredibly delicate and set with the tiniest white diamonds, the Rupee studs are great as casual every-day earrings - especially in a second or third hole! Inspired by the currency in the Legend of Zelda series, these solid gold studs are little bits of treasure that you'll hopefully use to adorn your earlobes and not to purchase deku nuts from sketchy business scrubs!
✶ solid 14 karat yellow, white, or rose gold
✶ earring measures 3.29mm wide x 5.19mm tall
✶ each earring contains a 0.005 carat VS1-SI1 clarity white diamond
These earrings will be handmade just for you.
Please allow 2-3 weeks production time before shipping.
Please remove your gold jewelry before bathing, swimming, cleaning, or applying lotion. The chemicals in pool water, certain cleaning supplies and some face and hand lotions can erode the metal. When gold is broken down into tiny microscopic pieces, it appears black. This may result in a tarnished look on the metal and a black mark on your skin.You can clean your gold jewelry with warm water, mild soap, and a soft bristled toothbrush (child and baby toothbrushes work well for this). Be sure to rinse and dry your jewelry thoroughly.
Use the gold polishing cloth included in your order for extra shine and to remove any tarnish. Sometimes 14 karat gold can tarnish a bit (particularly on earrings and the inside of rings) because of a reaction with your skin chemistry, but you can remove this tarnish easily.
Use the gemstone polishing cloth included in your order to clean the surface of your diamonds and gemstones easily. This will remove fingerprints, oils, and mositure.
Try to avoid dropping any jewelry containing diamonds or gemstones, as this can cause the stones to shift and they may become loose in their settings.
Please remove your rings before lifting heavy objects (furniture, boxes, hand-weights, etc.) to avoid bending the band.
Be careful not to drop your ring, as this can cause the stones to shift and they may become loose in their settings.
It is a good idea to remove your rings at night to give the skin on your fingers a chance to breathe.
Do not purchase white gold if you are allergic to nickel. Yellow gold and rose gold do not contain any nickel, so these are safer choices.

My number one tip is to clean out your supplies. Throw out expired and old items. You would be surprised at the amount of trash you will acquire. I know I was.
Next I had to organize what I wanted to keep. One of my best tips is to use containers INSIDE other containers. This keeps things like small bottles of nail polish corralled and organized. Life with two teen girls in the house y'all.
My next tip is to store things like cotton balls in tall clear containers. They are pretty enough to be displayed so why not leave them out.
While I adore lined baskets for most of my bathroom organizing some things just don't work in a basket. All of those hair ties that teens require are kept in a metal tin. This way they don't slip out of the basket or under the liner. Don't be afraid to mix and match containers in the same color scheme for your organization.
Do you have some clutter to eliminate from your bathroom? Grab a garbage bag to get started off right. Remember most of your clutter is likely expired or old. Once that is out of your way it is only a few steps to a more organized bathroom for all the members of your family.

June 19, 240 BC - Today was the day that a Greek mathematician and all-around genius named Eratosthenes estimated the circumference of the Earth - and despite the limited resources he had at the time, his estimate was remarkably accurate - within 2% of the actual measurement.
Eratosthenes was the head librarian at the Great Library of Alexandria. He was also the guy who came up with the science we know as Geography. He invented a system of latitude and longitude, and he was the first person to prove that the Earth was round.
If you have a couple minutes to burn, check out the video below for a quick explanation about how Eratosthenes measured the Earth:

Sámi Museum Siida was after all granted a subsidy for its activities by the municipality of InariSep 12, 2013 08:15 PM
In its meeting on Thursday, the municipality council of Inari amended the budget proposal for 2014 so that the Sámi Museum Siida will be granted a subsidy for its activities. The personnel of the Sámi Museum are happy about the strong backup and support that the local community has given to the museum. The personnel also promise to work with a will in future for the subsidy.
The municipal executive board proposed that the annual subsidy granted to the Sámi Museum be halved in 2014 and axed totally in 2015 as part of the municipality's programme for a controlled increase of the municipality's expenses. However, the council voted against the board's proposal in its meeting on 12 September. Thus, the Sámi Museum will at least next year get a subsidy that is of the same size as the one granted to it in recent years.
Tarmo Jomppanen, the Director of the Sámi Museum Siida, and the personnel of the museum are delighted by the positive decision. – Getting the subsidy in future, too, encourages and motivates us to continue working effectively for Sámi culture and tourism, Jomppanen says. The employees of the museum are above all happy about the strong support that the museum got from the local community in this issue; this support is thought to have influenced the opinion of the decision-makers.
The subsidy of 50,000 euros for the activities of the museum that the municipality has granted every year is very important for the Sámi Museum, as it makes it possible for the museum to run a number of local activities. For example, through the subsidy the museum can continue to run the Skolt Sámi Heritage House in Sevettijärvi, provide pedagogic services for children under school age and schoolchildren at the museum, and offer cultural stimuli for people of all ages.
Before the council meeting, there was a lively public discussion on the significance of the Sámi Museum Siida and on how necessary the subsidy is for it. After following the discussion, Director Jomppanen sees that there is also room for self-criticism at the museum. The discussion showed that not everyone in the area knows enough about the variety of activities the museum runs. In future, the Sámi Museum is going to invite employees and elected officials of the municipality to come to Inari and acquaint themselves with the activities and events taking place at the museum.

Studying ancient history at the University of Warwick, Rebecca developed an interest in classical history including Latin and Greek language study and Hieroglyphs translation, leading to a Master's degree in Egyptology from the University of Cambridge. As an archaeologist, Rebecca has given back to her community in Cambridge through work teaching local young people about archaeology and heritage at the Higher Education Field Academy. After her conservation work on the mosaics here at Chedworth is complete, Rebecca is excavating in Egypt for the remainder of the year, in both the Sudan and the Nile Delta region. With a passion for teaching, travelling, journalism and photography, she has lived and worked in much of the Middle East, India, Nepal and the Far East as well as Turkey and parts of Europe. firstname.lastname@example.com
Chedworth RevealedIn July 2010 we revealed and protected mosaics at Chedworth Roman Villa. This was part of a major project to improve visitor access and conservation of the historic fabric. We had a wonderful time and met visitors from all over the world. It was fabulous to share our work and talk about it on-site.
- The excavation and conservation work was captured by this blog as it happened. The 2010 blog is no longer maintained but will still be available as an archive and on-line resource.
- The new cover buildings will be complete in 2012. We'll be back then to finish the excavations and reveal the full 30m of corridor mosaic!
