The AlphaKORians' hosted students in Grade 11 & 12 from General Amherst High School. Thanks to Mr. John Clarke for making the arrangements and to Emily Li Causi from the Greater Essex County District School Board for attending.
The students were introduced to AlphaKOR, the industry and were given a tour of the facility. Along the way, they met the team who talked about being a software developer, corporate sales rep, accounting, management, digital marketing and being a technician.
Tauseef from our Design department demonstrated some of the software tools AlphaKOR has developed. The afternoon session consisted of the students asking many questions to our President to know and understand the opportunities at AlphaKOR, in the IT and Innovations sector in WindsorEssex Region. Social media tips on some things to do and not to do were shared along with building their professional network as they start to enter their careers.
We would like to thank the students, General Amherst High School and The GECDSB for this opportunity to help the students think about this exciting field and to stay local as they become our professionals of the future.

District Boss Interview: Victoria Levitan
vici is the lovely lady behind the d.c./virginia blog, vici loves.
The RINGLET team has been long term fans of Vici's lifestyle blog. Vici is incredibly down-to-earth and inspirational. We love her whit, her beauty product reviews and style. Read below to see what it takes to run a successful D.C. lifestyle blog.
1. Tell us about your blog!
I launched my blog Viciloves in 2015 solely focused on beauty product reviews and tutorials. But as I started finding my own voice and audience, I realized I also wanted to share more of my personal style and life. While beauty is still one of my core verticals - especially on my youtube channel - Viciloves is a beauty and style destination. From makeup tutorials to what new pieces have hit my closet, my content intermingles with my personal life and travels.
2. What lead you to where you are today?
I grew up in Switzerland and completed a 3 year bank apprenticeship when I was 19. Having gone through the Swiss school system, I learned what hard work meant and the perseverance to push through difficult times. At home, I also saw how my father went through ups and downs with his own business and that it takes a long time to see success. I knew starting a blog wouldn't be easy - especially in a rapidly growing and competitive industry. But the thing that's kept me going is that both my father - and now also my older brother - each successfully run their own business. Learning from their stories has taught me so much and keeps me going in moments of doubt.
3. What brings you the most joy when developing your blog?
I've always been one to take matters into my own hands and with blogging, you literally do it all. From photography to writing and editing, it's liberating to be in control of all those aspects. I'm proud of the content I produce because I put in a lot of time creating beautiful images and inspiring content. But the biggest joy I get is interacting with my audience. When I receive a message or comment from a reader, letting me know they loved one of my recommendations, it instantly makes my day!
4. What's the most difficult part of being an entrepreneur? The best part?
There are a lot of moving parts to a business and being in charge of it all is both exhilarating and daunting. I try not to think about it too much because I've always known that I wanted to be an entrepreneur and be in charge of my own work. I'm a nerd in the sense that I love learning about accounting and contract law. But of course there are things I wish I could hand off to someone when I'm overwhelmed or not feeling well. Being the only person in my business, I truly rely on my relationships with other female entrepreneurs to discuss our thoughts and ideas.
The best part is being able to do what I love every day and express myself in a way I've never done before. Being able to talk to my audience through video or a blog post and creating something out of thin air is an extremely satisfying experience. Also being an introvert, I really enjoy having the time to think about what I want to say and how I want to communicate it to the world.
5. How do you stay motivated and continue to grow, personally and professionally?
I wholeheartedly believe in journaling and writing down my thoughts on paper. It allows me to focus, prioritize and not get overwhelmed. I write down anything that's racing through my head and give myself a few minutes each day to reflect and strategize. Something that might sound strange is that music is also a big motivator for me. Whenever I lack enthusiasm about a task, I put on loud music, have a quick dance party and tackle my work with renewed energy. I also listen to podcasts to learn about different subjects and open up my mind to new ideas.
6. What's your nighttime routine?
I usually wind down my night on the sofa, recapping the day with my husband and watching a bit of TV. Nine times out of ten, my laptop is with me because I'm finishing up a blog post or editing a new youtube video. I also drink a glass of milk each night and can't go to bed without it. That's the Swiss in me coming through!
7. What's one piece of advice you would give to other entrepreneurs?
It sounds cliché but if you're not doing what makes you happy, then it's going to be really hard to grow your business. You have to be able to live and breathe your business in order for it to sustain. Also, exercise frequently to give your mind a break. I get some of the best ideas during my pilates class because I'm so in the moment.

Are you ready for Japril to get some alone time in Montana? "Grey's Anatomy" star Sarah Drew told Moviefone that Season 13's April and Jackson (Jesse Williams) standalone episode would be "pivotal for the two of them, individually and also as a pair," and now we have more details and images to go with the tease.
Episode 16, "Who Is He (And What Is He To You)?" airs Thursday, March 16 at 8 p.m. on ABC. Here's the synopsis:
"Dr. Jackson Avery and Dr. April Kepner travel to Montana in order to perform a complicated surgery on a young patient, but Jackson's mind is elsewhere, and April is forced to step up and get him back on track."
The episode was directed by Kevin McKidd (Dr. Owen Hunt), and both he and executive producer Debbie Allen (Dr. Catherine Avery) were featured in some of the behind-the-scenes photos ABC shared to promote the episode:
What's on Jackson's mind? He does look lost in thought, especially in that closeup photo.
Sarah Drew told Moviefone the trip to Montana is for a throat transplant case:
"But it's a really incredible opportunity for them to be kind of still and have to face one another with nothing else distracting them out of the normal environment. And we're really, really proud of it. Kevin McKidd directed it. It's very different, tonally, than a lot of the other episodes. There's a lot of quiet space and stillness. It's not like frantic and moving super-fast. And it's really lovely."
Before we get to this very lovely-sounding episode, we still have Episode 15, "Civil War," which airs March 9. (There is no episode on Thursday, March 2.) Here are more details on "Civil War."

RISE High is designed to meet students where they are. We have two campuses and hope to soon have a mobile classroom but the blended program provides our students with flexibility to learn at their own pace, time and place of choice.
Our biggest challenge was to create an authentic blended-learning experience with human interaction. We also have PowerSchool and other edtech platforms that don't speak to each other, because we do project-based learning and mastery-based grading. With teachers and staff, we're trying to figure out how to get all of those platforms to seamlessly work together.
First, teacher-curated curriculum is so powerful for building relationships. It's hard for students to learn from someone (or something) you don't know or trust.
Second, the power of housing curriculum in one place. Teachers have the time and capability to differentiate rather than spending time creating and organizing content.
Our main areas of leadership are providing culturally relevant instruction and working with special populations (ELL, SPED, etc.) Our student population includes 27% SPED students. They are working at many different paces and levels, so teachers do a lot of differentiation. Teachers have created different pathways for each course. We have a SPED teacher on staff who focuses on developing and improving methods of differentation and remediative help.
All of our curriculum is developed by RISE High teachers, who create it with their students' unique circumstances and learning needs in mind. This also ensures consistency in the student's learning experience: whether a student is in class or studying remotely online, she is receiving instruction from her teacher, whom she trusts and respects.
Da Vinci RISE High seeks to create a highly responsive, holistic, and integrated model that meets students who are disconnected from school where they are, geographically, academically, socially and emotionally, and will open up clear pathways to college and career.
Da Vinci RISE High will show what is possible when a network of youth-development agencies, educators, municipalities and social-support centers break through silos to create a truly student-centered ecosystem.
School sites will be embedded within multiple social-service-provider locations in high need areas across Los Angeles to create a citywide campus allowing RISE students to master a real-world, project-based college- and career-ready curriculum in the ways, and at the places, that work best for them. These partnerships will give RISE students access to counseling, case management, tutoring, job readiness training, career pathways, internships, extracurricular opportunities, leadership development, and more.
If a student isn't near a brick-and-mortar campus, RISE's mobile center will drive to the students—so nothing can stop these students from becoming college-, career- and life-ready.
RISE High, incubated at Da Vinci Schools, was 1 of only 10 schools in the nation to win a prestigious 'Super School' grant to reimagine high school in connection with XQ: The Super School Project, funded by Laurene Powell Jobs. A non-classroom based independent study charter school, Da Vinci RISE High is the newest school in the Da Vinci Schools family. There is a small Da Vinci RISE High program serving about 30 students located in Hawthorne, CA. RISE High recently opened a second site in August 2017 at 2901 S. Central Ave., Los Angeles, Ca 90011.

Here's what you need to know about Penn State's Big Ten Homecoming clash with Michigan State Saturday
UNIVERSITY PARK — Idle last week after their prime-time loss to Ohio State, the Penn State Nittany Lions return to action Saturday with Homecoming clash with Big Ten rival Michigan State in Beaver Stadium.
The game will be televised on the Big Ten Network. Kickoff is 3:30 p.m.
The game will be a Stripe Out.
Go here to read Penn State's game notes for the Michigan State game.
Here's what you need to know about the game.
GAME-DAY PARKING: Penn State announced today that all game day parking has been exhausted for Saturday's game vs. Michigan State. Fans attending Saturday's contest who do not have a parking permit will not be able to purchase a permit for the Beaver Stadium parking lots the rest of the week, including Saturday.
Several options for fans who do not have a parking permit are listed below.
For Fans Who Don't Have a Pre-Paid or Advance Parking Permit:
Fans who don't have a pre-paid or advance parking permit for the Michigan State game are encouraged to carpool or consider other options to get to Beaver Stadium, including:
- CATA Game Day Shuttle – two routes to Beaver Stadium (catabus.com)
- On campus in the Eisenhower, HUB or Nittany decks and walking or taking CATA Blue or White Loop (parking fee at all campus decks);
- Lot Red A, located west of North Atherton Street by the Westgate Building and walking or taking CATA Blue Loop (parking fee at Lot Red A);
- Several downtown parking garages have hourly rates, including the Beaver Avenue, Fraser Street, McAllister Street and Pugh Street Garages, on a first-come, first-served basis. Fans can walk from the garages, take the CATA Game Day Shuttle or CATA Blue or White Loop to Beaver Stadium;
- Uber (drop off and pick up locations near stadium);
- Grange Park (car and RV park and ride shuttle provided by Cole Transportation; fee for parking and shuttle on Friday/Saturday; grangefair.com).
All parking permits for the Michigan State game that were purchased via 1-800-NITTANY earlier this week were fulfilled and shipped via express mail.
BTN Tailgate Originating from Outside Bryce Jordan Center Saturday at 10 a.m.
BTN Tailgate will originate Saturday from 10 a.m.-Noon and fans are invited to attend the free event.
The program will be located just outside Gate B at the Bryce Jordan Center, as part of Fan Fest on Curtin Road. BTN Tailgate is hosted by Dave Revsine, with analysts Gerry DiNardo, Howard Griffith and former Nittany Lion NFL first round selection Anthony "Spice" Adams. Michelle McMahon is the program's reporter.
BTN Tailgate is the second live college football pre-game television program to visit Penn State this season, as ESPN's College Gameday originated from Old Main lawn for the Ohio State game.
Fans can access the "pit" for BTN Tailgate at 9 a.m. Saturday and make their own signs.
The following regulations will be in place:
- Fans can access the pit Saturday at 9 a.m. (no overnight camping)
- Fans entering the pit will be screened by security personnel
- No bags, backpacks or purses are permitted
- No offensive, vulgar, inappropriate or solicitation signage will be allowed (i.e., no political, religious, or .com, .org, .net signage)
- No signs or flags on a stick
- No food or drinks
- Throwing of objects is prohibited
BEWARE OF FAKE TICKETS: Fans are being advised by Penn State Intercollegiate Athletics to be cautious of counterfeit tickets, including the print-at-home format and illegally reproduced single game tickets purchased from non-authorized sources, for the Michigan State game.
The ticketing staff at the Beaver Stadium gates and ticket windows and University Police confiscated more than 300 counterfeit tickets before and during the Nittany Lions' last home game, against Ohio State on Sept. 29. More than 300 fans who thought they had purchased official Penn State tickets for the game vs. the Buckeyes tried to gain admittance with counterfeit tickets and were denied admission.
Penn State continues to encourage fans buying tickets to only purchase them through Penn State authorized sources. The Penn State Athletic Ticket Office and Ticketmaster.com/pennstate are the only authorized sources for tickets to Nittany Lion athletic home events.
Fans purchasing tickets from unauthorized sources assume the risk that tickets purchased are counterfeit or the barcodes have been invalidated. Anyone attempting to enter Beaver Stadium with a counterfeit or invalid barcode on their ticket will be denied entry.

Will recommended two movies he watched this week: Angels of Sex and Boys. Jeff praised the recently released audiobook of Wade Kelly's Misplaced Affection, which is narrated by Chris Patton.

[h2]Question of the Week Episode 19 Responses:[/h2]
While listeners can leave comments on the website each week, answers come in from various other platforms as well (and we can only read a few answers on the show). Here are all the responses we got to the question "Does who publishes a book affect your purchase decision?" Thanks to everyone who took the time to answer.
- Eileen: The publisher plays a minimal role in my decision to buy a book. If it is an author with whom I am familiar or a book that has been recommended, I will not even notice or look for publisher information. However, if I am on the fence about a book, I will lean more towards taking a chance if it is from Dreamspinner. I typically find publishers buying pages frustrating, so if a book is available on Amazon, I will just go there to buy it Dreamspinner was helpful and responsive when I had issues downloading a book from their site, but Amazon just makes it so easy.
- Gillian: I do not auto-buy from publishers. I shop based on title, blurb, author and price. I'm sure that the cover has an impact too, but I don't consciously shop by cover. Publisher? Well, I am biased towards NineStar Press, because I know the people there and where they're at, much like Jeff with Dreamspinner (also I'm published by NineStar, so obvious bias). That said, what does make a difference? The publisher's buying page. I prefer to buy from the author or publisher directly, but some publisher's have sites that just look … scammy. It makes me hesitant to buy from them.
- Brandilyn: There are publishers that I won't hesitate to take a chance on because I know they put out a good product. On the flip side, there are ones I won't read at all for the opposite reason. I always approach self published with caution until I have experience with the author. New to me publishers are also approached with caution. The middle of the road publishers are where it gets tricky. Usually if it is an author I love, I will take the chance. However, I am wary about a "middle of the road" publisher combined with a new to me or middle of the road author. A good editor can elevate a mediocre author to greatness. However the opposite is also true… There are also publishers I won't touch despite the author because of their business practices or other similar reasons.
- Gino: Sometimes, depends on the publisher. If I don't know who the publisher is I usually do research on them to see what kind of books they've published in the past like anything by Penguin Putnam, Knopf I'll read but some self published company I might be hesitant on.
- Dudley: I actually find myself liking independent self-published authors more than published ones.
- Sandra: If I've read that some authors have had problems with a publisher, it def makes me uneasy buying. But it is unfair to not support an author bc a publisher is an ass. Sooooo…. it really just depends on the situation.
- Willow: I could literally not care less about the publisher.
- Barb: For me, it depends on how good the editing is. A few major publishers get most of my business because the work is always 99% clean. However, a few others that are considered major do not produce quality work. There are a few self-published authors who are meticulous, and there are those who don't realize that synonyms exist and that commas should not be thrown randomly at a page in the hopes they'll stick in the right place. I avoid those authors at all costs.
- Morana: Sometimes. I tend not to trust Amazon because you can never be sure what you are buying. It may not say it is a serial then end with a cliffhanger. Publishers such as Loose ID are proven winners. You get what you are promised. If it says HEA, it is HEA. I mainly use AllRomance to get books these days. They offer a wide selection from trusted publishers.
- Amy: Doesn't affect me at all. I rarely even pay attention to the label. I'm more about whether the specific book is something I want to read. I go through 10-20 books/month (depending on length) as a reviewer, and content is more important to me than anything else.
- Kendra: Sometimes it matters. I tend to look at some publishers at auto buy, but if I haven't heard of one it won't make me stop from buying one.
- Heather: I don't usually take publisher into consideration when looking for books, but I've consistently found that the books that come out of Dreamspinner Press and Extacy Books are good quality, so if I'm stuck for something to read I'll do a search for a book pubbed by them.
- Tory: I will buy anything published by Dreamspinner Press as I've liked everything they've published so far. Other publishers, I focus more on the blurb on the back soundling like something I would enjoy. I have been disappointed before by other publishers, so certain ones I won't buy from at all.
- Denise: Who publishes my books doesn't matter. I go by author.
- Christina: I don't think I've ever looked to see who the publisher was when considering whether to buy a book or not. It's never been a determining factor.
- Shanen: I don't notice the publisher. I notice the blurb/trope/author. Honestly. From there I look at reviews. If I'm still unsure I ask my book friends.
- Morana: One thing that REALLY makes a difference to me…
If the blurb starts off by
"If you loved 50 shades of grey" or
"If you love Ann Rice"
If you can't write a blurb that is about that book and not someone else's… I will not buy a book that starts off by comparing it to someone else's book.
- Diane (in reply to Morana): Thank you. I HATE that. And a lot of the books that are pushed by Bookbub do this. I don't want a rip off of someone else's story. I want something that is uniquely that author's work.
- Amy (in reply to Morana): Yes! If I wanted to read those books, I would. I want to read THIS book or I wouldn't have looked at it! Tell me what it's about; don't compare it to another one.
- Tammy: Actually, it does. After the shit hit the fan at Elora's Cave, I wouldn't buy books from them anymore.
- Elisheva: If i know a publisher isn't paying their authors, I won't buy from them. I started that way back when Silver exploded, and I won't buy EC or Torquere now.
- Kia (in reply to Elisheva): Yeah, this is why I do check publishers, that and I've had really bad experiences with YA (straight) books published by Penguin, I've found many of them to be sexist crap. Even if the book sounded really awesome.
- Kathleen: Generally speaking, no.
- Morgan: I don't not buy based on publisher (with the exception of a place like Ellora's Cave) but it can push me to buy, I've come to really trust some publishers like Dreamspinners to put out quality books.
- Renae: I agree with some of the things mentioned here. I will often buy a book simply because I trust the publisher wouldn't accept crap. Editing is a big thing for me, and I can trust these publishers.
And on the flipside there are also publishers I would never buy from, no matter who the author is. Usually because I don't like how they've treated people in the past, their editing is sub-standard, or that the stories they put out are simply crap.
It's also good to know a publisher, because I don't want to be caught out with a book that doesn't have a HEA, or contains elements I wasn't expecting (rape, incest, etc). The publishers I stick with have strict policies on this.
I warily go with self-published, and if burned, will never try them again. Once I recognise the quality of some who self-publish, I will happily one-click them. I've also been caught out on self-published novels where I think, "How did your beta readers and editors allow this scene/scenario/storyline?" which doesn't help the image of the self-pubbing business.
- Jordon: All depends.

But at least you got a decent shot before you killed it (it will die over time as the corrosion sets in)
Does that mean there is nothing that can be done to save it?
Quote:Besides the camera falling in, how did you fall in, had you had one to many?
, Lol, no alcohol was involved . Would you believe that I stepped straight in? We were setting up to take images looking towards a bridge over the canal, where we were planning to spin wire wool. Leading from the bridge were some concreted areas on the other side of the bridge that were lower than the path , but immediately next to the bridge, in sort of triangular shapes. I thought it was the same on my side of the canal and stepped down the two steps only to sink through what I had thought was a concrete surface and end up to my neck in canal. That area was covered in thick algae/pond weed etc which under moonlight had given it the appearance of concrete. Luckily it wasnt too deep in that cornered off section .
Funny thing is that the other guys heard a noise and saw a duck fleeing across the water and joked about it - they couldnt see me due to a huge bush and commented along the lines of "what was that?" " Oh ducks" " Ha its probably Angi falling in"( said jokingly) then they both laughed - a few seconds later they heard a little voice " can somebody help me please" as I couldnt climb out
Great set of shots, that's a tight orb, great work.
Sorry to hear about the camera.
Sorry to hear about the camera.
I do like this one I was very tempted to do something similar

Finally Farm took a short hiatus from Week 4 of the Winter Equestrian Festival circuit to experience The Ridge at Wellington's Hunter Derby Day, held Friday February 5 in Wellington, Florida.
Trainer Liza Boyd entered her young derby mounts Coronado and Shamrock in the $15,000 USHJA International Hunter Derby, the first major derby outing for both young horses.
"It was a great experience for them," she said. "They were both a little green at times, but it was a new place and in a covered arena, so it was totally understandable."
In the end, Pony Lane Farm's 6-year-old Zangersheide stallion Coronado (Coriano Z—Chinchilla Overringe's Z) placed eighth overall out of the field of 31 horses.
"I couldn't be happier for him. Once again. people thought I had shown Brunello in the class because they look so much alike!" she added laughing.
Liza was pleased that photographer Andrew Ryback selected a photo of Coronado as one of his favorites from the day and posted it to his social media sites.
"Coronado really stepped up this week. He also did the High Performance Hunters on Wednesday, a section that had a lot of really good horses. He placed third and third over fences over some impressive courses designed by Phillip DeVita. He really proved his scope that day," she said.
McKayla Langmeier added a few more tricolors to the Finally Farm banner during the week as she guided Maraschino to the Small Junior, 15 and under, championship for owner Lily Bennett, who was out of town.
It was a special show for McKayla and "Cherry" as they were reunited for the first time since Lily purchased the mare from her after the 2014 Pennsylvania National Horse Show where they were champions.
"It was fun to see her back on Maraschino, and she was so excited to ride Cherry again," said Liza, who also guided Cherry to a score of 89 in the 3'6" Performance Working Hunter Handy class that week.
"The mare has really matured and gotten better and better," she said. "I was able to do some turns and things I couldn't have done last year, when she was a First Year Green horse."
McKayla dominated the Small Junior, 15 and under, section, winning every over fences class—three aboard Maraschino and one with Laura Critz's Quatrain, who finished as the reserve champion with two seconds over fences as well.
Maggie Hill added another Low Children's Hunter tricolor to her collection, taking a championship aboard Black Ankle LLC's Equanimity this week. Liza praised Maggie for her consistent riding, which has now resulted in multiple tricolors aboard three different horses.
'The other two horses (she rides) needed a week off, so this was perfect. Our friends from Savannah, Georgia, trainer Courtney Goldstein and owner Ansley Johnson, allowed Maggie to show the mare. We've seen 'Cha Cha' for quite a long time because she does the Adult Amateurs with her owner. She's a lovely mare, and it was nice of them to allow Maggie to show her this week."
Hardin Towell and his jumpers earned a variety of placings during Week 4, with a highlight being 11th place out of 59 aboard Emilie De Diamant A in the $35,000 WEF Challenge Cup Round IV. They had just one rail down in the jump-off. The pair also had just one rail in the first round of the $216,000 Ariat CSI4* Grand Prix.

Human pain is the great unifier. We all have pain in common. It's a part of our solidarity. To be human is to hurt. But in our pain, we always look to find our way to Jesus, because if you can get to Jesus everything is going to be alright, amen!!
God in Christ is "Emmanuel". GOD WITH US. God with us in the solidarity of human suffering. Beginning at Bethlehem, Jesus entered the world of the wounded, and was himself wounded. But here's a beautiful and sacred mystery, "By his wounds we are healed". If we can bring our own wounds to the wounds of Christ, it does not multiply woundednes but produces healing. But first we must acknowledge our own woundedness. This is hard for us as American Christians. We are raised on John Wayne, Bruce Willis, and pick yourself by the bootstraps. We are very slow to acknowledge our woundedness and pain. In many cases, we never actually do. In the words of Walter Brueggemann, we are schooled in denial.
The wounded in our society are everywhere. The hardest task is to break through denial so people can get in touch with their own pain. Our zeal for certitude and absolutism is an anxious, frightened response to the reality of pain. We think we can not bear the pain, so we protect ourselves by pretending we don't know about our own pain. What we discover is that if we can get access to our pain within our community which we trust, then our pain is almost always bearable because the trustworthiness of our brothers and sisters will hold and not let us fall through. Sometimes we need to be helped to see or hear that our certitudes are mostly phony, that life does not conform to our certitudes, and our absolutes are much less than absolute.
So what do we do about a people schooled in denial?
Lamentations, that little book between Jeremiah and Ezekiel, was composed in response to the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple. It was end of world for the Jewish people. Imagine September 11 times 1000, that's 587 BC for the Jewish people. It was a great national humanitarian and economic crisis. But it was also a great theological crisis. It caused them to question everything thought they knew and believed about themselves. Are we the people of God or not? We've not been rescued, we've not been delivered. This pagan nation has destroyed our great city and burned our temple. Everyone but the poorest of the poor have been carried off into captivity and exile. We don't even have a land to call home anymore. That's context for the book of Lamentation. It's the Jewish hymn book of grief and sorrow. And the Jewish people have had plenty of opportunities to lament.
Lament brings pain, sorrow, and anguish out into the open where it can be acknowledged, shared, and eventually healed. What the book of Lamentations does is make it possible for the Jewish people after the destruction of the temple to be able to get past their certainties and absolutism and allow God to come in and bring true comfort.
Look at how the Lamentations opens.
"How lonely sits the city that was full of people! How like a widow has she become, she who was great among the nations! She who was a princess among the provinces has become a slave. She weeps bitterly in the night, with tears on her cheeks; among all her lovers she has none to comfort her; all her friends have dealt treacherously with her; they have become her enemies. Judah has gone into exile because of affliction and hard servitude; she dwells now among the nations, but finds no resting place; her pursuers have all overtaken her in the midst of her distress. The roads to Zion mourn, for none come to the festival; all her gates are desolate; her priests groan; her virgins have been afflicted, and she herself suffers bitterly." Lamentations 1:1-4 ESV
Now look at how the book closes.
"Why do you forget us forever, why do you forsake us for so many days? Restore us to yourself, O Lord, that we may be restored! Renew our days as of old— unless you have utterly rejected us, and you remain exceedingly angry with us."
Lamentations 5:20-22 ESV
Always, always, the question we want answered is "How long, Lord?" Notice how Lamentation reaches no nice resolution. There is no happily ever after. It hangs there in ambiguity. Restore us to yourself, O Lord, that we may be restored! Renew our days as of old— unless you have utterly rejected us, and you remain exceedingly angry with us. Restore us Lord, renew our days as of old…unless you are just going to be angry with us forever. No certitudes or absolutes to be found, even inspired by the spirit as this was. There is no happily ever after.
Leading up to the great catastrophe, all the prophets in Jerusalem said everything is gonna be alright. We have the temple, we have the promises of god, God is on our side. God is our defender. There will be peace. We have the covenant of god and the promises of God. This city will not, can not fall, because after all we have the temple of the lord!! All the prophets, that is, except for Jeremiah. "Do not trust in these deceptive words: 'This is the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord.'" Jeremiah 7:4 ESV. Jeremiah brought a minority report. Jeremiah said there is idolatry in that temple. He said the city and temple will be destroyed. The people will be carried into Babylon Jeremiah warned, as all the other nations in the area fell, that they would fall too. Jeremiah warned them Do not trust in these deceptive words. "Go now to my place that was in Shiloh, where I made my name dwell at first, and see what I did to it because of the evil of my people Israel." Jeremiah 7:4, 12 ESV. Jeremiah warned them to remember Shiloh, the place where the ark of the covenant itself had been kept. The original dwelling place of the lord had been wiped off the map, what makes us think we won't be is the warning.
Jeremiah's message was not very well received (go figure). He was arrested, censored, his prophesies were burned, he was even thrown into a well. At least they didn't kill him…
All the other prophets said everything's going to be alright, but it was Jeremiah's prophecy that came to pass. In 587 BC, the city fell, the temple was burned, and the people were carried into captivity and slavery. The moon was red as blood, the sun refused to shine, all the stars fell from the sky. It was the end of the world as they knew it. And they could no longer take comfort in false promises of what turned out to be the false prophets.
Lamentations is about preparing a place for comfort to come by doing work of lamentation. It is a primer in overcoming our denial and false certitudes. What is meant by false certitudes? Isaiah 54:17 says that 'No weapon formed against you shall prosper…". There is a time and a setting, a context, where that is the word of the lord. But we grab hold of that verse (and others like it) and carry it around with as our own personal badge of bravado, we tell everyone who will listen how no weapon formed against me shall prosper, we carry on in our certitude and absolutism. Until the day comes when it seems every single weapon being formed against you is totally prospering. Then what do you do?? Just keep denying, keep on the brave face, never let 'em see you sweat, never show weakness, amen?
When the diagnosis is grim, the bankruptcy is filed, the divorce is final, our loved on has died, our certitudes go out the window. Lamentations was born at this point, at the pain point of 587 BC. Even the book of psalms, which we mostly see as the praise songs of the Bible, is full of lament. One-third of the psalms at psalms of lament. Israel is famous for its psalms of lament.
We need to really understand where Lamentations fits into the Bible. If you look at the book of Isaiah, it is divided into two parts. The first 39 chapters are warnings and prophecies of dire consequences which are coming. This part is pre-587, before the destruction of the temple. Chapters 40-66, that is all after the destruction of the temple. This us where most of our liturgies from Isaiah are actually from, from chapter 40 on. So we have Isaiah 1-39, warnings and prophecies of what is to come. Then August 587 BC comes, and the destruction of the city of God, the burning and destruction of God's temple, and God's people being carried off into exile.
This is where Jeremiah's (we believe) lamentations come in. There is phrase that appears 5 times in the Lamentations, she has none to comfort her. There are none comfort, there is no comfort, this is said five times during the book of Lamentations. Bu5 what happens in Isaiah 40? "Comfort, comfort my people, says your God." Isaiah 40:1 ESV. It's no longer none to comfort, it's comfort, comfort my people. The work of Lamentation that's been done has opened the people up to real comfort, the comfort of God given by others.
Jesus himself says what about this? "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." Matthew 5:4 ESV. Mourning, laying down our false certitudes, being vulnerable, opening yourself up to the comfort of a God carried by another. Grief is not a reality to be denied, but work to be attended to – Pastor Brian Zahnd. The work of grief and lamentation must be done if we are to allow true comfort into our lives. But we would rather anesthetize ourselves with entertainment…
We so crave happiness. You might say we are a happiness obsessed culture. We've even got a constitutional right to pursue it!! (I know, it's not actually in the constitution. But we believe it is…). We think we can just whistle past the graveyard and forget that death is the very backdrop of human existence. We actually believe we can get out of this alive. We are so like the great whore of revelation – 'I sit as a queen, I am no widow, and mourning I shall never see.' Revelation 18:7 ESV. We think mourning we will never see, we can just whistle past those graveyards, but it's all just a lie. It's propaganda we so want to believe and live our lives based upon.
But when we are schooled in denial, we earn our degree in just staying miserable. We have become a people addicted to entertainment, and we earn degrees from Denial University. When we experience loss and the grief and pain that accompanies it but will not acknowledge it, it us simply internalized and begins to poison our soul. The effects of the poison can be seen in things like depression, anger, addiction, physical disease, other types of things. When we go off to Denial U, we earn our degree in how to stay miserable.
This is what is so powerful about our 12 step programs like AA, NA, SA, or my favorite Celebrate Recovery. It is through these programs and living the 12 steps that we can be unschooled in denial and begin road real recovery.
School of denial belongs to the empire that can not bear to face reality of death. You know someone's been schooled in denial when they refuse to attend funerals. "I don't do funerals". Some say this like it's a virtuous thing. We are so selfish, are we not? But what this really is just someone so schooled in their own denial that what they've told themselves is some virtuous decision not to attend funerals is really just away for them to face the reality of the one funeral they will be required to attend. Because we are all required to attend at least one funeral in our lives, are we not? We've turned funerals these days into an exercise of trying to cheer someone else up when the real purpose of a funeral is grief and lament as a community. We grieve together, we share in the loss with those closest loved ones. Because lament purges the soul. It does not add to the problem, it is a part of the healing process
One last bit here. Consider this prayer, tucked away right in the middle of the book of Lamentations, starting with verse 3:16.
"He has made my teeth grind on gravel, and made me cower in ashes; my soul is bereft of peace; I have forgotten what happiness is; so I say, "My endurance has perished; so has my hope from the Lord." Remember my affliction and my wanderings, the wormwood and the gall! My soul continually remembers it and is bowed down within me. But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. "The Lord is my portion," says my soul, "therefore I will hope in him." The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him. It is good that one should wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord."
Lamentations 3:16-26 ESV
When we are honest enough about our pain and grief to share it with our brothers and sister, we can then be opened up the love of God carried to us by another. Because, really, how are we to receive the love of God in this world except through another made in his image? God almost always works through people, does he not? So the beginning of healing and recovery comes through sharing that pain, sorrow and grief, not covering it up. Become a Denial University dropout and experience the love of Christ the only way we know how – by being opened up to receive it through another human being.
John Lewis

One year ago this morning my Mom passed away. It was early morning when my sister called to let me know. We had four long days of missing her before the funeral — days filled with bittersweet moments, lots of tears, some healing laughter, a few regrets, but mostly wondrous remembering and a sense of relief that she no longer had to suffer. Several of my sisters and I got to dress Mom and apply her makeup. We talked sweetly to her and hoped she would be satisfied with how we wanted her to look for her last family reunion on earth. The viewing and services were wrenching and comforting, both at the same time. Mom looked so much like her sister, Carma. We were able to visit with so many cousins, friends and neighbors that we love.
Then we buried her in one of the worst Wyoming winter snow storms I can ever remember. It's a little ironic, because our Dad was buried on the second worst day in all of Wyoming history fifteen years earlier. Just ask anyone!
I have so many wonderfully warm, consoling, cheering, fun and satisfying memories of her. She'll always be my favorite person. I'll always be her favorite daughter. [That's a family joke! She always made each one of us feel like we were her favorite!]
Last weekend we had our Brother/Sister Christmas party and you'd never guess what my little sister, Eileen, gave me! The most precious gift — chuck full of memories. We all had a great laugh at how thoughtful and caring this gift is. Eileen somehow managed to get all of Mom's shirts and made me a wall hanging out of them with one of Mom's very favorite sayings right smack in the middle of it. "Good Morning Merry Sunshine!" I remember the, literally, thousands of mornings those were the first words I heard each day.
Such a clever, thoughtful, special gift.
Thank you Eileen!
Love, me

On a perfect Fall day last weekend we headed out into the sweet Tennessee countryside at Ashland City Farms to capture Janaye + Will's wedding . It was an idyllic location for a private and intimate gathering of friends and family. So secluded in fact that we had to take a 4-wheel drive Gators to get to our formal photos by the creek!
Janaye + Will were peaceful and fun all day. It was wonderful seeing how they meshed so well together throughout their wedding day!
We hope you enjoy this preview of their quaint country wedding :)

Masopust is the February festival in the Czech Republic that most resembles Mardi Gras. This is a time of drinking: loads of roast pork (cooked on open spits), washed down with cold beer ("pivo") and plenty of other drinks like absinthe.
This party — which literally means something like "going without meat" — is marked by the use of masks and outlandish fancy dress. It is a time of indulgence and excess prior to the 40-day fast; it is believed it is pre-christian in origin. The mask-wearing likely represents the spirits of the dead (who apparently walk about at this time of year); there is a suggestion of sun worship, too. Devils, chimney sweeps and a host of animal figures make up the parade including a horse that collects doughnuts and an array of mad creatures from your worst nightmares.
This is one time of the year when you don't need to drink absinthe to see the green fairy in the Czech Republic.

Art Comes Alive, The Morning After
The day after a big event is often a quiet one with rest and relaxation. Today is one of those days. It is trying to rain here in the little river valley, Mr Z is cutting grass somewhere back on the property and I am glad I went..
The folks at ADC Art Design Consultants sure know how to throw a shindig. The catered dinner eats were superb, wine was flowing and the room was a buzz with conversation, a hint of music and art. Lots of wonderfully curated art. It felt good to be out in the art world again. The first show that I had been a part of in over ten years. As most of you know I am also an Olfactory Artist and Artisan Perfumer. My journey has taken me to many interesting places creatively, and now that I am adjusting my life to include both Olfactory and Visual Arts, I feel the circle completing itself. I am ready to settle in and start on that cohesive body of work that I have been complaining about over the past few months.
Being in a room with a lot of other artists is very energizing, particularly when some of them are people you know and have not seen in many years. We all work alone for the most part and our lives rarely intersect. Gallery Openings, Art Walks and the like are just as much a happening for community and staying in touch as it is selling art and commerce. It all goes hand in hand and when it is done right like the event last night at ADC everyone comes away feeling like they were a part of something special. Litsa Spanos and her team at ADC are amazing folks with passion and commitment for art and the community. How they pull this thing together must be a feat carried out by elves and fairies, the magic behind the curtain. A flawless progression of mingling, awards presentation and art appreciation.
Last night I met some amazing artists. They flew in from as close as Chicago and as far away as Montreal and Ireland. Early on I was speaking with an artist who asked where I was from. Not thinking I said oh, I live in Warren County just north of Kings Island. It did not occur to me that she had no idea what that meant, as she had flown in from Seattle and was in Cincinnati for the first time.
Tomorrow I will be back in my studio painting, working on that string of cohesive paintings. I love the work that I am doing right now and have a lot of good energy to pour into it. It doesn't hurt to have a big shot in the arm and a bit of validation to keep things moving along.

So much of what passes for R&B on the radio these days is boring, syrupy synth-pop that tastes good for a minute but, like all sugar rushes, hits quick and wears off a few minutes later. Then, there are the rare artists like The-Dream, a singer / songwriter / music mogul who is currently the most exciting performer in the genre.
Perhaps it's because his creative reach is ambitious beyond usual urban-radio genre conventions. You probably know him best for the songs he's penned for other people, which include mega-hits like Rihanna's "Umbrella" and Mariah Carey's "Touch My Body," and a bunch of others that you've hummed. (His handiwork is often recognizable when a singer repeats those "Umbrella"-style "ehhh-ehhh-ehhh" vowel noises for rhythmic effect.)
On his own albums, though, The-Dream goes markedly darker and more conceptual, over the past couple years rolling out the first two entries in his Love trilogy of albums. The first entry, 2007's Love Hate, yielded singles like "I Luv Your Girl" and "Falsetto," and 2009's Love Vs. Money yielded "Rockin' That Shit," a single that performed decently but also sadly went a bit overlooked.
The final installment in the set, though, Love King, is due out June 29, and was recorded here in Miami rather than The-Dream's hometown, Atlanta.

Billboard.com just released an extensive online feature about the album, detailing his songwriting and recording process:
"It started in my basement at my house in Atlanta, dubbed the Nash Estate, which is where I actually worked on Ciara's 'Ride' and Rihanna's 'Rockstar 101'," he recalls about the album, which he began working on this January.
The recording efforts quickly shifted over to Miami, and the entire songwriting process -- alongside the album's producers and songwriters Carlos "Los Da Mystro" McKinney and Christopher "Tricky" Stewart -- lasted about two weeks.
Most importantly, though, you can stream the entire album on the site as well, from the title track/lead single all the way down to a song about the fictional "Florida University." Click here to check it out.

Bathroom Potty Madness
We are not quite on the floor crying but we are limping along. The philosophy we have adopted this second time around but with twins is "NO DIAPERS"!. We threw them away, in the garbage, all gone, no more crutch. With Paley we tried 3 times to get her potty trained and after giving up after the third attempt, she finally cracked. She hit the potty on her own, on a trip to visit family up in Idaho. Looking back, the reason why we failed three times was due to the fact we were giving up. We hit a limit and there sitting in the drawer is the easy to deal with diapers.
Currently we are on Day 4 of no diapers and the kids have made a few strides in the training. Are they completely potty trained in 3 days as promised? No! But we are getting there - I will accept the progress we have made over the past 3 days and keep moving forward. Oddly enough the only real struggle we experienced in the past 3 days is getting the twins to understand when the poo or pee comes they need to dart for the potty. The first two days were rough in this department but I will agree with the 3 day method that by day 3 there is a little light shedding on progress.
For now we are just trying to struggle towards the kids understanding that the potty is where they should go to go #1 & #2. Fingers Crossed!

Romantic Love Messages for Boyfriend
Maybe it's too early to say I love you, but I can't keep it a secret. I've never felt this perfectly happy, and I wanted you to know that you're the reason why.
It's been said that you only truly fall in love once, but I don't believe it. Every time I see you, I fall in love all over again. – Anon
I can't really find the words to explain the way I feel when I hear your voice or when I see your face… all I can say is that I like the feeling.
How I wish that I could spend my whole life under the skies watching the stars with you? You're the first and last person I want in my life. Love you dear.
The sun can rise, the sun can set, but my day will never start until I get. A text from my boyfriend, followed by a hug, and later a lot of kisses over a warm coffee mug. I love you.
When I 1st saw you, I was scared to talk to you. When I spoke to you I was scared to hold you. When I held you I was scared to love you. Now that I love you I am scared lose you.
It is not true that love does not have boundaries. In fact, my love for you has created boundaries in your heart so that no one else can come in. I love you.
I can never say how my life would go and how long I'd stay alive. All I know is that even we're miles apart; you'd always be one of the sweetest piece of puzzle completing my life.
From the first time I met you till today, you've been my rock solid pillar and safety gear. Today I want to let you know that I'd be lost without you. Don't ever leave me.
What if you love the wrong person? Are you going to give up or hold on? Maybe you need to do nothing, just continue loving. Who knows? Maybe that love might be enough to make that person the right one.
I may not be there when you need me, but a part of me laughs when you're happy and cries when you're sad, the other part stays strong to pray for you. That's the best thing a far friend can do.
I wouldn't care if the sun didn't shine, I wouldn't care if it didn't rain and I wouldn't care if I couldn't enjoy winter's delight. All I care about is to see your face and feel your presence every single day in my life. I love you.
Your hugs give me weak knees and your kisses make me shiver. Thinking about you makes me breathless and missing you gives me a fever. You seem to be bad for my health but that's alright. I will still hug you, kiss you and miss you with all my might. I love you.
Cute should come and see the height of cuteness in you. Sweet should come and taste the sweetest thing in the world in you. Romance should come and feel the most romantic guy in you. Hot should come and touch the hottest person in the world – you. I love you.

I have tried blogging a few times before this, but I eventually ran out of things to talk about. I kept the scope way too small, but now I will cover wider array of topics so I have always something to write about. Also, if I'll ever get a proper video camera I will start making videos about the topics I cover as well.
I don't know how often I will post things, probably will be taking long breaks sometimes.
So, who am I?
Well, I'm nobody big or important and I doubt I'll ever be, and that's fine by me!
My (nick)name is Akselmo and I'm from Finland. I've played around with computers since I was two years old, so the interest into computers and technology started long time ago. I often tore up broken (and sometimes working) devices, such as radios and computers, to see what they looked like inside and what made them work.
I knew my way around MS Office software already when I was 5 or 6 years old, thanks to my grandparents. They had a PC with Win 98 and all the Office software which I liked to play around with, pretending I was an important businessman. I played cool games like Mad Dog 2, Tomb Raider 1, Network Q Rac Rally Championship and Pro Pilkki on that PC. I have that PC in my storage now but I'm not sure if it works anymore, I haven't had the time to try it out.
|I think I was 4 years old in this picture, playing at my grandparents PC which was in my moms old room.
I also got a NES as a birthday present when I was about three years old and I still have it and few games for it. I try to keep good care of all the devices I have.
When I got older, we got shortly got a proper internet access and I got to play more and more games with consoles or PC. I also remember the day when I got my first mobile phone. However these stories deserve their own posts. :)
So yes, I definitely have experience around technology, but there's always so much more to learn. That's one thing I really like about technology and computers: They keep getting better and changing over time, so there's always something new to learn!
Right now I'm studying information technology at Oulu University of Applied Sciences and hoping to get more into software development. I have also studied information technology at Raahe's Business College, but that was mostly basic stuff I already knew, and I studied animation and game development at Lybecker in Raahe. I have studied gamedev on my free time and I hope to become a game developer in future because I love video games, but I wouldn't mind working at any kind of IT job. As long as it's inside and near computers, I'm happy. I know it's playing a bit into the whole "nerds never go outside" stereotype but.. That's me. Can't help it. :D
I have many video games I love, such as The Elder Scrolls -series (especially Morrowind!), Quake and Arena FPS games in general, Mass Effect -series, Dirty Bomb, Battlefield -series... So mostly FPS and RPG games. I like multiplayer games more than singleplayer, but nothing beats a well written singleplayer RPG.
When it comes to computers, I love them, old or new. I like watching Youtube videos of old PC's that were made before I was even born, or checking out the newest components for modern PC's. I hope to build my own nostalgia-PC one day, with parts made around the years 2000-2006, just gotta find those parts. I also find the smaller single-board PC's very interesting, so I have bought myself a Raspberry Pi 2 and PocketCHIP, which I will cover here someday, too.
In conclusion: I love video games. I love computers. I like building software for them, games or not, and I'm sure I will keep tinkering and playing with computers as long as I can, and I'll try to keep anyone who reads this blog up to date on my adventures around technology. :)
I hope you will enjoy reading my blog!

The Humble Mustard Seed
Let's stop a moment to take a closer look at the humble mustard seed. It's more than just a condiment or one of the ingredients that makes a cucumber a pickle. This tiny seed has the important job of being an anti-inflammatory agent and it has warming properties.
Some of the benefits we can harness from the mustard seed are: controlling the symptoms of asthma; relieving rheumatoid, arthritic and muscle pain; fighting skin infections; and aiding in boosting immunity (Sampath, 2015).
Harken back to the good ole' days of mom's medicine cabinet; many of you may recall when cold season came around mom would break out the powdered mustard and make some terrifying thing called a mustard plaster. Just the name of it would strike terror in my young little heart.
"Terror" you ask. Yes, terror. More like terror of the unfamiliar and weird sensation of a condiment being applied to one's body. I recall the pungent smell of the mustard plaster as it was spread over my chest; the warm, wet sensation of it once an old shirt was pressed on top to keep it in place.
Once this was done my mom would tuck the covers over me, turn off the lights and leave the mustard plaster to do its thing. Me and a condiment, alone in the dark. Not exactly a fond memory.
At this point you're probably wondering what the exactly does a mustard plaster do. Well it's good for chest congestion, it aids in reducing fevers and it removes toxins. Smelly and unattractive as it is, it does work.
So if you're wondering how to terrify, I mean help, your kids here you go:
Mustard Plaster Recipe
- 4 tablespoons flour
- 2 tablespoons dry mustard
- Lukewarm water
- Mix the dry ingredients together and add enough water to make a paste that is spreadable. (If the plaster is for a young child, halve the recipe as mustard is a powerful spice that should be used with care when applying topically.)
- Using a clean, old t-shirt, apply the paste evenly over half the t-shirt. Once completed, fold the other half of the t-shirt over to cover it.
- Place the folded t-shirt onto the chest of the individual and cover it with a clean towel followed by a blanket. The towel will protect the blanket from the moisture of the paste and will provide additional heat to encourage some sweating.
- Leave the plaster on for up to 20 minutes. (Remove the plaster if it causes discomfort to the individual and/or causes the skin to turn a dark red. Mild reddening of the skin is normal as the mustard has a warming property.)
- After use, be sure to have the individual thoroughly wash and dry the skin that came in to contact with the plaster.
Prior to mass-produced, over the counter (OTC) cough and cold remedies, there were natural ingredients to provide for our wellness, including the humble mustard seed.

Koren Specific Technique (KST) FAQ
As your chiropractor in Santa Clara, we strive to offer the services that we believe will be most helpful in improving the health, mind and body of our patience. We believe in the natural healing ability of the body and we strive to help unlock the key problem areas that are holding back your health and well-being. From mood boosts to pain relief, Koren Specific Technique (KST) is just one of the techniques we use at Hoewisch Family Chiropractic to help you feel like a better version of yourself.
What is KST?
Koren Specific Technique (KST) is a special technique that locates the areas of your body causing blockage, subluxation, distortion, stagnation, interference and other stressors in your body that are often missed by most healthcare professionals. KST is gentle on the body and many patients report a quick response of their body to the following adjustment.
The actual problems are detected by a special muscle testing technique. While it may be a headache that causes you to come in for relief, the root cause could be something that is off in the cervical spine, the lumbar spine, the cranial bones, the thoracic spine or is occurring because of an emotional cause. When the problem area causing the issue has been detected, an AnthroStim is used to give very quick, light taps to the area. This is a tool that can be used on infants without pain as well as adults. This gentle adjustment stimulates the neural receptors and sends nerve impulses to the brain that helps self-correct the system.
Why Would I Need KST?
KST has gotten widely noticed for finding problems that most other techniques and tests miss. As your KST chiropractor in Santa Clara, Dr. Hoewisch is focused on uncovering the seemingly unexplainable. KST can help identify underlying problems that may cause confusing manifestations that are misdiagnosed by other professionals. The gentle KST treatment is very comfortable, yet it is highly effective for a wide range of problems. Often, the problem area causing the bodily reaction is not easily found. The KST treatment first identifies the area responsible and then utilizes the recoil technique of the AnthroStim to adjust the body without dramatic cracking, pulling or pushing.
What Can my Santa Clara Chiropractor Treat with KST?
Whether you are experiencing discomfort, pain, numbness, dizziness or just feel off for any reason, KST could offer relief in surprising ways. From chronic low back pain to numbness along one side of the body, there are a very wide variety of issues that have been detected and treated with KST. Patients have even noticed large changes in the lives of their children with autism as the technique is non-invasive and improves problems in the body that may not even be recognized, leading to better balance, focus and calmness.
If you are looking for a new chiropractor in the Santa Clara area or you need help discovering the cause of your pain, call us today to schedule an appointment with Dr. Hoewisch. We would be happy to serve your whole family, helping you experience the true wellbeing that KST chiropractic can bring.

Only in Israel: thoughts from a professional hitchhiker
By Sam GREEN.
You can learn a lot by hitchhiking to work in Israel. I hitchhiked the daily commute for nearly four years, from my home town in Modi'in to my hi-tech job in Yehud and then, when I changed jobs, to Rechovot.
But first off, let's face it. Where else in the world would it even be remotely conceivable to hitchhike to work without being considered an escaped convict or some sort of aberrant, let alone a hi-tech professional? And then, even more improbably, where else would you be able to leave the house at eight-thirty and still be confident of grabbing a lift from a complete stranger in time to be at your desk every day by nine? Exactly. In fact, I don't think I ever waited more than fifteen minutes to hitch a lift in the morning and usually it was more like five.

Every morning, commuters elbowing their way through the hectic morning slog would never fail to turn into the layby to offer me a ride, even though they clearly realized that getting back into the stream again would be like trying to get Obama to take out Iran's nuclear sites. (Believe me, stiff necked doesn't do justice to it – sometimes I think these people would prefer to have a collision rather than suffer the humiliation of having to put shoe leather to brake).
However, despite their utter contempt for breaking distances and total ignorance of the laws of momentum, once in their cars, I found Israelis to be polite, considerate and friendly. And they would often travel out of their way to take me where I needed, even if it meant upsetting their own plans.
That is my people.
But there's more. Towards the end of my stint as a hitchhiker, I began to develop a rule of thumb about the sort of people that would stop for me: People in nice cars don't stop. It's only average to poor income Israelis that give people lifts. I have no idea why. Maybe middle class Israelis empathize more with hitchhikers or actually were hitchhikers themselves at some point. Or maybe it could be that simple Israelis are more down to earth and altruistic than their wealthy compatriots, or maybe less 'tainted' by the money somehow? But then, just as I was getting comfortable with my cozy social assumptions, the rule was rudely broken one morning, when a property developer in a VERY posh SUV stopped and drove quite out of his way to get me to work. That's another lesson learned here in Israel – don't underestimate the ability of the locals to surprise you.
And now, thanks to the incompetence of the bus companies to get a basic service up and running to go the easy 36 kilometers from Modi'in to Rechovot, and at considerable personal expense, I've finally got myself a car. And yet somehow I can't help but reminisce on my experiences as a fleeting guest of the many good people that let me in for a short time. The car ride was always just long enough for a cautious exchange of ideas, some searching for common ground and then the verdict on life and the future, followed by a hurried 'Todah' and 'Shalom'. And then we were gone, probably never to meet again, but somehow both of us changed. Dare I say, for the better?
But I miss those rides most of all because, morning after morning, they never failed to put my bigger journey into perspective for me. Why I came to Israel and why I made Aliyah. Hitchhiking allowed me to see the goodness of the Israeli people in action and to try to get some of their incredible generosity, can-do spirit and open-heartedness to rub off on me. Maybe it's working, slowly. But what really puts my mind to rest is that no matter how tarnished my own born-in-exile soul may be, the cure will ultimately be complete. Maybe not in my lifetime. But certainly in my children's.

Marijuana Shortage Prompts Nevada to Declare State of Emergency
"Less than two weeks after sales of recreational marijuana kicked off in Nevada, stores are running out of pot to sell, according to the state's Department of Taxation.
On Friday, Gov. Brian Sandoval endorsed the department's call for a "statement of emergency," which would allow for more licensed distributors, the Reno Gazette-Journal reported.
Nearly 50 dispensaries in the state have licenses to sell marijuana for recreational use. Those sales got underway on July 1.
But those same retailers do not legally have the authority to restock their inventories."
