The statistics of domestic violence in our country are staggering. One in four women in the U.S. experiences intimate partner violence in her lifetime. Approximately 15.5 million children are exposed to domestic violence every year. And in our own community, The Metro Nashville Police Department received over 26,600 reports of domestic violence in 2014 - that's one report every 20 minutes.
In January 2017, we began a partnership with the YWCA, providing weekday dinners for their Weaver Domestic Violence Center. This 51-bed shelter is the largest domestic violence shelter in Tennessee, providing a safe space for women and children escaping domestic violence (men are housed at another partner facility).
"The women, the children, our staff - anyone who walk through these walls - deserves a clean, welcoming, healthy place," says Laura Clark, the Residential Coordinator at the shelter for the past 17 years.
The YWCA empowers domestic violence survivors to take control of their lives, while offering them safety and the resources to ensure their self-sufficiency. The YWCA's programs are designed to empower women and offer opportunities for self-determination in every area of life, including the design of their food program at the shelter.
In contrast, the two kitchens at the shelter are stocked with pantry items and ingredients for the women and families to have access on their own schedule. They have spaces for any of their personal food, and can add requests for spices or other pantry items to a community shopping list.
"At first when they talked about having (TNFP) I didn't know exactly what it was – they started and thought, 'Oh my gosh - I don't know why we couldn't have found you all years ago!'"
The dinner meal at the shelter, provided by TNFP, is advertised to start early evening, but the women can come at whatever time works for their schedule. "Many of the women work, have school, and are taking care of their kids. When they come here, we want to offer at least one good meal a day – which is (TNFP)," Laura tells us. "Food is comforting. And our goal is to make sure they're fed and they're taken care of – it's just one less thing to worry about."
When asked about how the food has been received, Laura shared, "I have seen positive impacts. Some of the women have never eaten like this. It's healthy, and it's flavors that you don't get just anywhere - even in the restaurants," she adds, smiling.
And of course, this is just one small piece of the much broader impact of the YWCA's work. In 2016, the YWCA served 453 adults and children at the Weaver Domestic Violence Center, providing not just a safe space, but also case management, safety planning, support groups, and counseling.
We are so grateful to be a partner with the YWCA in this important work! Learn more about the YWCA's mission and programs on their website.

10 Things to Consider When Converting Any Existing Site to Responsive
Accept it or not, Responsive Web Design (RWD) has now become a new standard for building websites. According to a recent survey, over 81% people prefer to use Responsive Design over other two mobile configurations – Dynamic Serving and Separate URLs. The reason why responsive design is so popular among designers is its ability to adapt to devices of all screen sizes.
If you have a non-responsive site and are planning to convert it to responsive, then you have landed to the right place. In this blog post, I've highlighted ten key considerations that you must take into account while converting a non-responsive site to responsive one. Follow these practices and you'll be able to make your site as responsive as it can be, absolutely without hampering its usability, accessibility and performance.
Let's begin!
#Analyze Your Existing Site:
This is the first and foremost thing you should keep in mind while starting existing website to responsive conversion. Dig deeper into your non-responsive site and visualize how you'll be converting it into responsive design. By doing so, you would be able to decide what features you should keep in the responsive version.
Analyze the navigation system of your existing site and think how you can improve it while converting the site to responsive. Examine hidden elements, like email subscription and contact page, and determine how they should look and function in the responsive version. Also, if you find any irrelevant or outdated content on your current site, clean it up.
#Perform a Thorough Backup:
No matter how many times you previously have taken back-up of your existing site, take a complete backup once more to avoid any risk of data loss during the conversion. Despite the fact that backups take very little time and effort, they are often overlooked.
Hence, it would be better for you to have a latest backup of your existing site saved in multiple places so that you could easily restore your site if something goes wrong in the conversion process. Also, even if you feel you're an expert, I would suggest you to never play with your site in the live mode.
#Define Breakpoints & Design Layout Accordingly:
In a responsive design project, one of the most important things to keep in mind is flexibility that can be achieved by determining breakpoints based on your current design. Breakpoints define how your site's content will adjust to fit different resolutions and screen sizes.
So work out the appropriate breakpoints and accordingly, design your layout to fit different devices like mobile, tablet and desktop. Since breakpoints define the user experience for various different viewports, be very careful while defining them.
#Add Responsive Meta Tag:
To make your site's viewport respond to different resolutions, don't forget to add the "Responsive Meta Tag" to thesection of your website. Below is the code snippet that you need to include in your site header:
< meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0″ >
This will change the zoom behavior for mobile devices, preventing web pages from zooming in mobile browsers.
#Apply Media Queries:
Media queries are a great way to make your site look good on all kinds of devices ranging from smartphones to desktops. When implemented carefully, not only they optimize the readability of your site but also deliver quality user experiences on different devices and screen sizes.
Since different devices support different media queries, you would have to target each device according to its resolution. The best way to target each device is to create media queries for most used devices, analyze how content flows on all resolutions in-between the key ones and then tweak it if required.
#Clean Up the Clutter:
Even though the main purpose of responsive design is to deliver the same content to every user, I suggest you to strip away all the unnecessary stuff when converting your site to responsive for mobile and tablet devices. Doing so will not only enhance the user experience for small screen devices but also improve the page loading time to a great extent.
To know what elements are important on your site, delve into your Google Analytics account and analyze what people click on the most and what's not being used for a long time. Keeping the purpose of each page in mind, remove everything you think superfluous.
#Perfect the Navigation:
Navigation is probably one of the biggest challenges, which we face when converting a site to responsive. No matter how good your current navigation is, you would have to make it fit on small screen devices. This is certainly not a simple task because the goal is to make each web page easily accessible on every device and screen size.
There are many types of navigation menus that you can use for small screen devices. In my opinion, you should consider using either a drop-in menu or an off-canvas solution to compress your navigation. However, what works best for your site totally depends on what kinds of products, services and content you're offering.
#Get Your Images Right:
One of the major problems that developers face while working with responsive design is making imagery responsive. Not only you need to resize images proportionally but also you're required to keep their performance up on all devices. That's a very big challenge! Isn't it?
Out of several techniques available to resize images proportionately in responsive design, the most popular is mentioned in fluid images article written by Ethan Marcotte – the father of Responsive Web Design. To prevent an image from looking "pixelated" or "stretched", all you need to do is to set its maximum width to 100% as follows:
img { max-width: 100%; }
This way, the browser will always keep the image in proportion to its pixel value!
#Pay Attention to Readability:
Readability on all devices is another crucial thing that many developers overlook in responsive design. Despite of web font services like Google Fonts and Adobe Typekit has given us much greater flexibility to craft gorgeous typefaces online, we need to develop and follow a consistent approach make text legible enough on all devices including mobile.
Good legibility and readability can be achieved by taking advantage of Responsive Typography, which makes use of em and rem CSS units. However, readability is not limited to just text. To deliver users an optimal website browsing experience, you're required to also pay close attention to design elements like buttons, icons, logo and slides including text etc.
#Optimize For Touch Screen Devices:
Since a wide range of devices – including mobiles, tablets and even some desktop computers – today use touch as a primary input method, make sure your site delivers a quality experience to users on touch devices. People use their fingers on touch-powered devices and therefore, you need to make your site as finger-friendly as possible.
To optimize your responsive site for touch screen devices, consider incorporating touch-specific features such as click-to-call and auto-form filler. Avoid using hover effects since most of the touch devices, except some Samsung devices, don't support them. Also, keep forms on mobile as simple and straightforward as possible.

We make many variations of guacamole in our house. This awesome guacamole is quick and easy. If I want to make it more colourful I'll throw in some chopped mango, and maybe some diced red pepper.
Avocado is full of all the stuff you want inside you. Good fats. Lots of minerals. Loads of fibre. Yes…here in cold 'ol Canada we can't grow avocados. (What I would give….!) But it's the one thing I don't feel guilty about buying. AND it's on the Clean Fifteen list, so they don't need to be organic either. And it's loaded with OTHER good-for-them things, like the usual fresh garlic, fresh cilantro, lime juice.
The awesome guacamole recipe below I make ALL THE TIME. At least twice a week. You can serve it with a variety of taco types, or simply with some tortilla chips. Easy. OR my delightful Detox-Friendly Nachos.
Okay…now my favourite part. This awesome guacamole trick is going to BLOW YOUR MIND.
When I first read about this I thought: "Impossible". But it makes sense if you think about it – because avocado are essentially all saturated fat. Okay…let me tell you.
You want to be able to make this awesome guacamole recipe the night before if you have to. Or store the leftovers somehow. But guacamole goes all gross and brown in the fridge after just a short time.
However, THIS TRICK will forever prevent this from happening.
Place your guac in a container and smooth out the top. Then pour a layer of water, about 1/2 inch thick, on the top of your guac. It will NOT seep through. It simply provides a protective barrier against your precious product and the air – totally preventing its browning. When you're ready to eat or use simply pour the water off. TADAH!! Green Guacamole.
Awesome Guacamole — updated version
Since my original post I have begun replacing the garlic with my guacamole with white onion. GREAT CHOICE. It's still sweet and pungent, but doesn't overpower. It's perfect. I've also begun adding jalapeno pepper — and sometimes I roast or grill it first. YUM.
- 2 large ripe avocados
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1/2 – 1 tsp sea salt
- 2 Tbsp white onion, minced
- 1/2 jalapeno, seeded, minced (optional)
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, minced
- a smidgen of raw sugar
- Scoop contents of 1 avocado out and place in bowl.
- Add lime juice, salt, onion, jalapeno and cilantro and MASH until it is mixed but still kinda chunky. This is a fun job for a small helper.
- Sprinkle with a smidgen of raw sugar or a teeny tiny bit of honey.
- Then dice the other avocado and fold in. This provides a bit more texture. You can mash both avocados or dice both, if you prefer.

Appreciating cricket's greatest legend ever - HD Bird...............Funniest post (intentionally) ever.....Runner-up.....Third.....Fourthcricket player"; "Bob"), 1/11/1990-15/4/2006
(Accidental) founder of Twenty20 Is Boring Society. Click and post to sign-up.
Cricket Max is a form of cricket invented in New Zealand by former New Zealand cricketer and captain Martin Crowe which was played by New Zealand first-class cricket teams in an annual competition. It was essentially a very short form of one-day cricket, with each team permitted two innings, but a maximum of only 10 overs for each innings.
Other major changes from the Laws of Cricket include:
Each side bats two innings of a maximum of 10 overs each.
Batsmen may not be out from a no ball as usual, and also the next ball bowled after a no ball. This is intended to encourage aggressive batting on the "free hit" ball.
Wides score 2 extras instead of 1.
Bowlers may not bowl more than 4 overs per match. These may be distributed between the two innings in any way.
The field is marked with trapezoidal "Max" zones, one at each end of the field, beginning 60 metres from the striker's wicket, where the trapezoid is 40 metres wide, and extending to the boundary, where the trapezoid is 50 metres wide. Any ball hit into the Max zone doubles the number of runs scored from that ball, whether by running between the wickets, or a boundary four or six. Fielders may not be in the Max zone as the ball is bowled. Only the Max zone in front of the striker is valid for all these rules.
The first version of Cricket Max also included the use of 4 stumps, instead of 3, at each end of the cricket pitch. This was designed to help bowlers dismiss batsmen, as a batsman could not be dismissed leg before wicket.
Im sure most people dont know what max cricket was.. but plainly after reading the rules 20/20 ripped it off... max started at domestic level in 1996 .. one of the keys in the game was batsmen were rewarded for playing in the V ..
The flaw with Max was that players essential had a license to slog, given 60 balls in an innings and 10 wickets to lose...it hardly mattered if you were 4 or 5 wickets down after 4 overs because you're almost half way through the innings anyway.
The 'Max Zones' IMO were a very good concept, encouraging hitting straight and that would be the one advantage Max has over Twenty20. Personally for an overall concept of cricket, I'd vote T20 with the tendency for slogging in Max even with the batsmen looking for the straight boundaries to double their score for that delivery.
^^^not quite... refer to batting rule 1.
1. 2 innings of 10 8-ball overs per team. That is, 4 quarters of 10 overs each.
2. 13 players per team consisting of: 3 batsmen, 2 allrounders, 3 bowlers, 1 wicketkeeper, 4 fielders.
3. 4 stumps and 3 bails.
4. No lbw rule.
5. If a no-ball is bowled, next ball is a free hit (can`t be dismissed unless run out).
6. Wides are 2 runs credited to the batsman on strike.
7. 11 players are in the field at any one time with option of 2 on free interchange.
8. Quarter and three-quarter time, 5 minute interval. Half-time, 10 minute interval.
1. Only 5 batsmen (the 3 batsmen and 2 all-rounders) to bat with 2 innings each available.
2. When out, batsman rejoins the batting order.
3. Must lose 10 wickets to be all out (over the 2 innings).
4. Last man in bats alone, with the previous man out acting as runner.
5. Each batsman, in his 1st innings, must score 20 off his first 25 balls or he is deemed "struck out" and dismissed.
6. If ball is hit into or over the Max zone on the full, the batsman scores 12.
7. If caught inside the Max zone, the batsman is not out and scores 6.
8. If a batsman hits 3 boundaries in a row, the 3rd boundary is doubled (8 or 12).
9. Another player can be designated as a pinch hitter in the last 10 oversat any time. If dismissed, a team wicket is used up.
1. 5 bowlers (the 3 bowlers and 2 allrounders) must be used.
2. There must be at least one slow bowler.
3. 5 overs per bowler are available allowing a maximum spell of 3 overs at any time.
4. A bowler can be changed after 4 balls of any over during the crucial last 10 overs at any time. [Nothing mentioned about how this affects the 5-over rule per bowler]. It seems that the designated fielders may bowl in these circumstances.
5. Run ups start inside the inner grid.
1. In the first 10 overs, 2 fielders allowed outside the grid.
2. In the last 10 overs, 4 fielders allowed outside the grid.
3. If any fielder hits the stumps the ball is either dead or the batsman is out.
4. No fielder may be inside the Max zones at the point of delivery.
Twenty20. It's like an ODI, except without the boring bits. Cricket Max is just a whole different heap of stuff.
Or something.
RIP Fardin Qayyumi (AKA "cricket player"; "Bob"), 1/11/1990 - 15/4/2006
Cricket Max was too convoluted. The strength of Twenty20 is that it's just a 20-overs-a-side game of cricket - no gimmicky rules.
I agree .. evolution is a slow process and barely noticeable at the moment.. a slowcurve of change
At least this Max stuff is completely and totally unapologetic about being gimmicky. It's saying "here's something we don't much like ourselves but you lot might enjoy it" without pretending not to.
In T20 Id have no issue if they did the same. Its a game for fast scoring and I wouldnt complain if the bowlers had bowled and caught as their 2 methods of dismisal.
I played in a game without LBWs and loved it. Gave so much more freedom as you were not worried about the idiot holding the bowlers sweater.
Just an idea. In not saying others should agree with it as Im not sure I do.

Sustainability is the answer to social justice issues
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
"Sustainability is the answer to social justice issues", social justice advocate Markese Bryant said in an open lecture given to Skyline College students on April 20 when linking the two issues which have created a larger problem.
This lecture was given as an Earth Day event for Skyline and brought together classes from different environmental sciences. Students listened in on Bryant's lecture and learned that many of the issues plaguing poverty stricken communities could be solved through green jobs and sustainable energy. These sustainable efforts can bolster communities in economic need and can break the cycle of poverty.
Saving the planet and eliminating poverty are two very different goals. But the question was raised: Are social justice and sustainability advocates simply addressing different symptoms caused by the same root problem?
"We could solve two of the biggest problems facing humanity, which is poverty and ecological issues such as climate change," Bryant said during the lecture. "When we focus on the economic portion of social justice, we can create the necessary link with sustainability."
Economic justice is a vital aspect of social justice and sustainability. Most focus on the environment when talking about sustainability but marginalize the social and economic aspects. According to Bryant, it is necessary to provide social and economic opportunities to those in poverty stricken neighborhoods so that they are not targeted by police as a source of revenue.
As an example, the city of Ferguson released several reports following Mike Brown's fatal shooting. Ferguson is an example of a city with communities that are limited due to having a very weak tax base. It was found that the police department systematically targeted poor black men as a means of supporting the city's economy through ticketing and arrests of black men. If the city's tax base was stronger with communities who are allowed more economic opportunities, then this can lead to a more sustainable and less violent society.
"Economics, namely unregulated capitalism, are the root of the issues in both movements," Skyline's Sustainability Coordinator Dainen Bocsary said. "Pursuit of the dollar over human and environmental prosperity has led to a need for social justice and environmental preservation."
The social justice movement is concerned with preventing future incidences of police brutality against African-Americans. According to Bocsary and Bryant, this is caused by unregulated capitalism negatively affecting African-Americans and other minorities. The sustainability movement's goal of ecologically sustainable practices may be achieved by providing readily available green jobs and comprehensive environmental science education.
"Somehow sustainability now means environmentalism," Bryant said. "The environmental movement hijacked the concept of sustainability [and] if the social justice community started leaning toward economic justice, they will be closer to grabbing the hand of the sustainability movement."
Sustainability is defined as meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. According to Bryant, sustainability is balancing society with the environment and with the economy. By focusing on the economic link and providing more job opportunities to disadvantaged communities, the goals of the sustainability and the social justice movements may be achieved.
"If you add the environment with the economics, you can create a social good, being green jobs," Bryant said. "This is the sustainability movement's current framework."
Bocsary also had more to say about the economical gap and its affects on the Earth.
"Both of these issues can be solved by lessening the gap between rich and poor in a sustainable way," Bocsary said. "Pursuit of the 'triple bottom line' aka bettering people, planet, and profit will help the world achieve the ideal equity for all."
Renewable energy is a growing industry which can provide new jobs to many in impoverished communities. In this way, we can empower needy communities to have a stronger tax base. If more dollars are circulating within a community, this leads to a stronger economy and a better standard of living.
"Social justice groups need to get back to focusing on economic justice," Bryant said while concluding his lecture. "We need to look at sustainability and recognize the social and economic components. We can't just focus on the environmental aspect of it.
"If we were to empower people to determine their own futures to determine who their own neighborhoods are developed, then we can create a better environment."
Bryant's lecture ended with groups of students signing up for the next day's sustainability workshop. Skyline students from oceanography and environmental science classes walked away from the lecture with newfound knowledge on how the social justice movement's goals coincided with the sustainability movement's goals.
"I went into this lecture not knowing how social justice was related to sustainability," Breanna Navarro, an environmental science student said. "But the speaker did a good job explaining how they can both be used to make a better world."
Some students, however, thought that other solutions are necessary to achieve the social justice movement's goals.
"I think green jobs can help poor communities, but it's not enough to help them come out of poverty," Skyline student Jacob Toletino said. "There needs to be better schools and less violent police."
The economic link between the sustainability and social justice movements can be utilized to progress both movements through mutual betterment of society through positive changes in our society. Providing green jobs through the growing industry of renewable energy can create the much needed financial equality in impoverished and marginalized communities.
"Environmental sustainability and social justice are both working toward the same ideal of equity for all," Bocsary said. "Even though both movements look very different on the outside, they are pushing for the same reality."

High cholesterol – BP can lead to memory loss
High cholesterol, BP can lead to memory loss
CAUSE FOR WORRY: High BP + High cholesterol can equal to cognitive and memory problems
A study has found that people who have higher cardiovascular risk are more likely to have lower cognitive function and a faster rate of overall cognitive decline compared to those with the lowest risk of heart disease.
Higher cardiovascular risk is also associated with a 10-year faster rate of overall cognitive decline in both men and women compared to those with lower cardiovascular risk.
For the study, 3,486 men and 1,341 women with an average age of 55 underwent cognitive tests three times over 10 years. The tests measured reasoning, memory, fluency and vocabulary. Participants received a Framingham risk score that is used to predict 10-year risk of a cardiovascular event. It is based on age, sx, HDL cholesterol, total cholesterol, systolic blood pressure and whether they smoked or had diabetes.
A 10-per cent higher cardiovascular risk was associated with poorer cognitive test scores in all areas except reasoning for men and fluency for women.
The findings contribute to the mounting evidence for the role of cardiovascular risk factors, such as high cholesterol and blood pressure, contributing to cognitive problems, starting in middle age. The study also demonstrated that how these heart disease risk factors can contribute to cognitive decline over a 10-year period.

Why is exercise such an effective therapy for conditions like obesity, type II diabetes and sarcopenia? The pathways responsible for the benefits of exercise represent therapeutic targets with enormous translational potential for impacting the health of billions of people. However, the identities of these pathways remain to be fully elucidated. A powerful new paradigm has emerged for explaining exercise's benefits based on a poorly defined endocrine function of skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscles can secrete peptides called myokines (e.g., IL- 6, myostatin, irisin), that work in a beneficial hormone-like fashion locally on skeletal muscle itself and on neighboring and distant organs. Myokines represent potential therapies for many conditions such as diabesity, sarcopenia and muscular dystrophy. Many myokines are secreted via a Golgi complex-mediated pathway;however the mechanisms governing myokine secretion at the Golgi remain unknown. We hypothesize that Golgi nNOSb is a novel regulator of myokine secretion. Our hypothesis is supported by our published and preliminary data showing that nNOSb is targeted to Golgi in skeletal muscle and that nNOS regulates expression of several myokines. Our hypothesis is also supported by human studies suggesting nitric oxide is necessary for exercise-driven IL-6 expression and secretion. To test our hypothesis we are generating skeletal muscle-targeted nNOSb knockout (KO) mice with startup funds anticipated to be ready before proposal activation. First, we propose to validate targeted inactivation of skeletal muscle nNOSb and determine its phenotypic impact (Aim 1). This is necessary to ensure model accuracy and because skeletal muscle nNOSb functions are unknown, although indirect evidence suggests nNOSb regulates muscle growth and exercise performance. Then, to test our hypothesis that Golgi nNOSb regulates myokine secretion, we will use a biased candidate-based approach to evaluate secretion of known myokines into the circulation of nNOSb KO mice at rest and subjected to acute running exercise. Many myokines are yet to be identified in vivo;therefore we will also use an unbiased mass spectrometry-proteomics strategy to identify nNOSb-regulated myokines secreted from resting and active muscles. In this way we will identify Golgi nNOSb-regulated myokines secreted at rest or during exercise (Aim 2). Successful completion of these aims will generate novel insights into nNOSb function and into the pathways regulating muscle growth and exercise performance. Such outcomes would support nNOSb's consideration as a new therapeutic target for conditions such as muscular dystrophy. We also expect to uncover a novel nNOSb-dependent mechanism governing skeletal muscle myokine secretion. By determining a role for nNOSb in myokine secretion, we will gain new insights into skeletal muscle's endocrine function, an exciting new frontier in skeletal muscle biology, that have broader implications for understanding the systemic benefits of exercise. These findings will be used as preliminary data and to develop new hypotheses about nNOSb function for the PI's first R01.
The benefits of exercise on health and longevity are firmly established. Despite their enormous translational potential, the pathways responsible for exercise's benefits remain to be fully understood. This proposal seeks to explore a new paradigm suggesting that proteins secreted from skeletal muscle into the bloodstream, particularly during exercise, promote whole body health and longevity. Deciphering skeletal muscle secretion may help identify new drug targets and therapeutic approaches for conditions that may benefit from exercise including obesity, diabetes, cancer and sarcopenia.

The GTS Community is invited on Community Time on Tuesday, February 24th at 1:30 PM in Seabury Auditorium for a presentation by Chis Mills, the Area Director for Young Life Chelsea. Currently Young Life Chelsea has two ministries at Fulton Houses (one block away from GTS) - a ministry to High School students and a ministry to Middle School students. They have also partnered with a few local churches which run a third ministry to some local elementary students.Young Life Chelsea has a great network in place and many kids to serve but is in great need of volunteers. Come hear Chris Mills talk and consider offering your assistance as a volunteer! Middler MDiv student Tommie Watkins has led a successful tutoring program at Fulton Houses in the past, so there is potential for a joint effort.
Young Life Chelsea currently runs two Clubs, one on Monday night with Middle School kids and one on Thursday night to High School kids. Their Monday Night Club is where some local churches have partnered and run an additional Club for elementary aged kids at the same time. They like to think of our Clubs as a "party with a purpose," playing games, eating pizza, watching skits, laughing and then ending the night with the gospel proclamation. Kids come have a fun time and hear about Jesus and what He has done for them! Young Life Chelsea has about 50 kids a week involved with our Club, but is in great need of more leaders!
For more information, come to Community Time on February 24th, and check out the Young Life Chelsea website: http://greaterny.younglife.org/Pages/Summit.aspx

Deputy PM denounces ministry's slogans as offensive to women
Deputy PM Zorana Mihajlovic thinks the slogans picked this week for a campaign to promote higher birth rates "miss the point."Source: B92
They are also offensive to women, Mihajlovic, who is a member of the Coordinating Body for Gender Equality, and of the Government's Council for Population Policy, said on Wednesday.
These slogans "publicly shame women" and show a lack of understanding of their role in Serbia, but also of the demographic circumstances, she said.
"Most of the slogans picked in this campaign simply obligate women, more precisely, place an imperative on them to give birth to children, which, I'm certain, can only have a counter-effect," Mihajlovic said.
The minister stressed that nobody has the right to order women to have children, nor to blame them for the birth rate - or see them as some kind of machines for giving birth.
"Any campaign aimed at increasing the birth rate must have the goal of awakening the citizens to why it's important that there are more of us, why it's good that each child has a brother or a sister, why it's good to have a family with more children," Mihajlovic said, adding:
"Beside concrete incentives, having children is interwoven with the conditions in our health care, education, media, but also with our country's cultural life. Therefore I think the commission that picked these slogans has failed to see the big picture about the birth rare problem in Serbia."
On Tuesday, the Ministry of Culture and the Council for Population Policy announced the slogans they chose for a campaign to boost the birth rate in the country.
Instead of three, the ministry picked six. In Serbian, most of these slogans are written in rhyme, while some use the imperative mood.
There are two winning slogans: "Love and baby - the first thing we need!," and, "Give birth, don't delay!"
Second-placed are one that has a girl say: "Mom - I don't want to be alone, dad - I want a brother," and, "Enough words, let it (baby) start crying." This is followed by, "Miracles don't happen. Miracles are born," and, "Let children be born and nice things happen."
The authors of these slogans have also received money prizes from the ministry.

Insurance: Peace of Mind for College Kids
Posted: Aug 16, 2014 7:53 PM CDT | Updated: Nov 5, 2014 3:27 PM CDT
Parents, having your child adequately covered could spare you a lot of money and maybe even heartache if you plan ahead. Realize you don't need renters insurance for the dorm since a homeowner's plan will likely cover it. But you might want to consider a personal articles policy, insuring specialized items like computers, sports equipment, or muscial instruments.
If you live off campus, in an apartment, it's advised to get renters insurance. Also, if the child's permanent address is the same as the parents', there's no need to get extra car insurance coverage. And, if your child doesn't take a car to school, you could actually get a discount because of it.
The link listed below can answer any further questions you might have.

Many of you have probably at some point noticed someone's headlamps that are faded, yellowed, or old looking. This is actually very common and can start happening to any lenses that are plastic (which are most of them) after years of exposure in direct sunlight.
It's a common problem, and usually can be fixed fairly easily and inexpensively. There are a lot of headlight restoration kits on the market now for all you do-it-yourselfers that you can buy at auto parts stores and even at Walmart and Target.
The kits range from polishes that you wipe on and off — which don't last quite as long — to actual sand and polish kits that take a little longer but have better results.
Headlights can range anywhere from $75 to thousands of dollars each to replace them. These days you have to buy the whole light as an assembly, you cannot buy just the lens, which is why it is much less expensive just to repair them.
It takes about an hour to do both sides, which includes masking them up, sanding them with a fine grit sandpaper, and then polishing them afterwards to get that new glossy look. If you don't feel like taking this project on yourself, we will gladly help you out...FOR FREE! Just stop by Apex Auto Center Inc. and we can do a headlight clean up for you right on the spot.

Let's say you created a Google+ page through your personal Google+ account. One of the problems or complaints we often hear about is how to get to the page and manage it.
Managing a page is built in, but unfortunately for quite a lot of people it was hard to figure it out or it was deeply buried in. We earlier also covered through a post about how to manage, edit or delete a google+ page but that didn't help.
There is good news for those you find it hard. Today Google+ team has released a new button called Manage this page.
The way this works is really simple. If you go to a Google+ page that you created/managing, it'll automatically slide in a blue button on the top of the page (refer image above) inside a dark grey background panel. Once you click on the Manage this page button, you'll be automatically switched from your personal profile to that Google+ page.
All the posts, sharing, photos or videos that now you share are from this Google+ page. The Google+ bar or the new Google+ menu on the top will immediately reflect the switch from your personal profile to the Google+ page profile (+Yourname to +PageName).
Managing a page can't get easier than this, enjoy!!

I have witnessed again and again the power of the question, "What are you reading?" to spark conversation and connection. Not surprisingly, this question turns out to be particularly fruitful when asked within the Life Together community, a place where so many gifts, interests, and passions meet and gather. It was through this question that I recently discovered Madeline L'Engle's "Walking on Water: Reflections on Faith and Art." Throughout the book, L'Engle explores the question of what happens to our creative impulses as we grow up into a world that so often prioritizes output and productivity over the meandering whimsy of the creative process.
In my site placement at Church of Our Saviour in Milton, I have the joy of learning and creating alongside young parishioners during Sunday school. On a recent Sunday the prompt was to draw a picture of how one imagines God. When I asked one young artist about her drawing she responded, "If God was an animal, she would be a Zebra." This young seeker is tapping into some profound spiritual truth, and I was moved by the certainty and clarity with which she expressed her vision.
Last Saturday I attended the Boston Book Festival, where hundreds of authors and readers gathered to commune over words and stories that light the way forward and carry us through. At the fiction keynote address, New York Times best-selling author Jaqueline Woodson was asked why she chose to write a "coming of age novel." Woodson responded, "What even is a coming of age novel? Aren't we all always coming of age?" I am in love with this idea of "coming of age" as an ongoing process in which we are all, always taking part. One thing that continues to astound me about the Life Together community is the way this process of becoming is valued, honored, and measured not by linear achievement, but circular growth and movement toward wholeness. As a Life Together Fellow I get to live and work alongside so many who see and value this brutal, joyful becoming as an ongoing process in which our creative selves need not be sacrificed or lost, but can be cultivated and drawn out. Last Friday, I was lucky enough to enjoy an open mic night at 40 Prescott, where Life Together fellows (and Bishop Alan Gates!) shared their talents and gifts. From juggling to poetry to song to dramatic reading, I was in awe and deep appreciation of the ways in which so many in this community generously hold and share their abundant gifts. I am forever grateful to be part of a community that sees, values, and celebrates the childlike, "racketty" creativity in us all.

Power Systems Development Facility inducted into Alabama Engineering Hall of Fame
The Power Systems Development Facility (PSDF) was inducted into the State of Alabama Engineering Hall of Fame at a ceremony Saturday in Montgomery. The Hall of Fame honors individuals, projects and corporations with outstanding accomplishments in the field of engineering who have significantly contributed to the betterment of their communities.
"This award is a tribute to the dedication and engineering excellence of the many Southern Company employees that have worked at the PSDF over the years," said Kerry Bowers, director of the facility. "Through their collective contributions, new technology solutions for coal-based power generation are becoming a reality."
Established in 1995, the PSDF leads the U.S. efforts to develop coal-based-power-plant technologies that are cleaner, less expensive and more environmentally acceptable.
Located in Wilsonville, Alabama, the facility is co-funded by the United States Department of Energy, Southern Company and other industrial organizations.
As a pre-commercial-scale R&D and testing facility, the PSDF evaluates emerging coal-based power technologies and components. An important feature of the PSDF is that it is designed at a size large enough to provide meaningful data under real operating conditions for commercial power plant use. This allows components to be integrated into a complete functioning system, so that the interactions can be observed – this advantage can't be done in individual component development programs.
The PSDF has consistently produced innovations by testing advanced coal-based electric power technologies, including: gasification, combustion and syngas cleanup processes.
The PSDF is the host of the National Carbon Capture Center, engaged in working with technology companies worldwide to accelerate the development of affordable CO2 capture technologies.
By advancing engineering innovation, the PSDF has provided new paths for our nation's energy future.

A SENSATIONAL swoop has been made to bring ex-England megastar Paul Gascoigne into Welsh football.
Little Mid Wales club TNS Llansantffraid have opened talks with Gazza's agents in the most audacious move yet by a Welsh Premier club.
TNS want the 35-year-old midfielder - without a club - to boost their chances of clinching the championship and going into next year's Uefa Champions League.
Liverpool and Wales legend Ian Rush, a TNS advisor, spoke to Gascoigne's representatives earlier this week.
TNS - who say they could meet Gascoigne's wage demands - are waiting for a reply as he is also considering an offer from Malta.
Clinching Gascoigne's signature would be a massive coup for TNS and the Welsh Premier - formerly the League of Wales - which has attracted a number of former Premiership stars since its inception in 1992.
And Mike Harris, owner of the Llansantffraid club, said it under-lined TNS's commitment to wrestling the league title from Barry.
"Gazza would be a fantastic advert for the club and the league," Harris told The Western Mail.
"But he wouldn't just be coming here as a gimmick. We're looking to strengthen the team and Gazza would have to do a job for us."
Gascoigne, who has failed to find a club since being released by Burnley last season, would come at a price, but Harris said TNS could meet any wage figure.
"The deal would finance itself through the number of extra fans we would get through the turnstiles," said Harris.
He added, "We spoke to Paul's representatives earlier in the week and the ball is now in their court.
"Paul has had an offer to play in Malta, but we were encouraged by the fact his agent told us he would prefer to stay in the UK."
Maltese club Marsaxlokk announced this week that the former England star was flying out to discuss a possible move.
But, if Gazza opted for TNS instead, he would be the latest in a long line of big-name figures to join the Welsh Premier, including:
* Graham Sharp, the first, the ex-Everton title winner becoming Bangor boss.
* Peter Davenport, the former Manchester United striker who is current boss of Bangor.
* Ian Rush, ex-Liverpool and Wales legend, who is a coach and advisor at TNS
* Clayton Blackmore, the former Man U man who played for Bangor.
* John Fashanu, the ex-Wimbledon man who has just taken over as chairman of Barry

While most of us do know what is wrong with our hair be it dandruff, thinning hair or dry scalp, what you might not know is that essential oils provide nutrients to hair even before the damage begins. Hair that shines with good health is not difficult to accomplish provided that you use the right essential oils in the appropriate portions and in good harmony. Essential oils are obtained from natural plants and flowers through distillation and are totally natural. Using products that have more than three essential oils accrues maximum benefits.
Almond oil resembles the natural oil produced by our skin and so it mixes with the natural scalp oil to provide the right level of moisture. Mixing in Peppermint, Ylang and Lavender for natural cooling helps hair follicles to relax and this promotes hair growth. These oils also soothe the scalp and prevent oiliness. Ylang and sage work as antiseptics to keep the scalp clean and prevent psoriasis while cypress repels dandruff. Isabella's Clearly LONG combines the goodness of all these essential oils to give your hair a well-groomed and elegant look. It can be used either as a pre-hair-wash treatment or in small dime size amount after washing depending on your hair type. It is available at AMAZON | ETSY
Castor oil is very effective in promoting hair growth and can absorb water from the air which removes dryness and improves damaged hair as it locks in natural moisture. Sandalwood oil keeps hair from getting dry. Both of these oils have antibacterial and antifungal properties that keep the scalp healthy. Sandalwood oil brings out the shine. Adding Rosemary will help your mane remain nutritious as it repairs damaged hair, increases hair growth and stimulates blood circulation. Another essential oil that increases blood flow and promotes hair growth is Basil. Lavender reduces itchiness and along with Peppermint wards off dandruff. Geranium provides many solutions for hair damage and also keeps each strand vitalized and healthy. Isabella's Clearly TAME has been especially prepared keeping these properties in mind and so it will keep your hair shiny and elegant. AMAZON | ETSY
Essential oils helps to promote healthy hair and give it a well-groomed and elegant look, reducing frizz and dryness and improving the overall scalp health. Jojoba oil is used as a universal base oil suitable for all hair types while Virgin Olive oil has a number of nutrients and vitamin E that fight free radicals in the scalp. Basil ensures that the scalp is stimulated enough to encourage the growth so that age related thinning of hair is reduced while Jasmine controls hair from getting coarse and dry and nourishes the roots so that each hair follicle remains lustrous. Both jasmine and basil keep the scalp healthy and free from infections. Himalayan Sea Salt Crystals are making waves as a remarkable salt that encourages hair growth. Use Isabella's Clearly WAVE if you wish to maintain natural curls and also ensure your scalp is healthy and hair receives all the nutrients it requires. Using the curl iron is so easy if you use this product on your hair and will help protect your hair against the heat.Wave is available at AMAZON | ETSY.

I don't understand you. I do not understand your English. However, I will do my best to try and give you an answer. Not an answer to your question. For I do not believe that your question speaks correctly, or truth, to the situation.
What I need to say or tell you now is that I do my best, and have for years, but I am constantly pushed back, as much as a fool for Christ and a peculiar person among a unique people as I am.
Otherwise, I am not having a stupid conversation. I grew up and recognized that there is no such thing as a stupid question. Therefore there is no such thing as a stupid conversation. The problem is when someone says that they are having or have had a stupid conversation. Maybe it is just something to move on from. Not if it is The Gospel, God's Law, Scripture, God's Word, or Jesus Christ God's Only Begotten Son.
Are you calling Jesus a liar. Have you noticed how if you don't like something you just say you don't believe it. Your beliefs are worthless. Its only what God believes that counts. And Jesus is showing us what God believes.
2 Tim 2:23
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
3474 moros (mo-ros');
probably from the base of 3466; dull or stupid (as if shut up), i.e. heedless, (morally) blockhead, (apparently) absurd:
KJV-- fool (-ish, X -ishness).
Luke 24:17
17 And He said to them, "What kind of conversation is this that you have with one another as you walk and are sad?"
Phil 3:20-21
20 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:
21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.
1 Tim 4:12-16
12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
13 Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.
14 Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.
15 Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.
16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.
Heb 13:5
5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
1 Pet 1:15-19
15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:
18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
Col 3:1-2
1 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God.
2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.
Matt 4:4
4 But He answered and said, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'"
2 Cor 13:1
1 This will be the third time I am coming to you. "By the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall be established."
Rom 8:4-8
according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
6 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.
8 So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
Rom 8:1-2
1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.
John 14:26
26 "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.
John 15:3-11
3 "You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
4 "Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
5 "I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.
6 "If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.
7 "If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.
8 "By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.
9 "As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love.
10 "If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.
11 "These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.
John 16:6-14
6 "But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart.
7 "Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you.
8 "And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
9 "of sin, because they do not believe in Me;
10 "of righteousness, because I go to My Father and you see Me no more;
11 "of judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.
12 "I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now.
13 "However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.
14 "He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you.
2 Cor 5:5
5 Now He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the Spirit as a guarantee.
xxx I have seen to many stupid conversations on subjects about God that dont have any part of God in them. Gods Word is perfect, and God gave us everything we need to understand Him in His Word. If God didnt see fit to explain Himself with human wisdom its because it cant be done. Every carnal word out there has different versions and different meanings for that word. Stupid conversations are used by the devil to keep people focused on the carnal mind and understanding to lead them away from Gods Word and the understanding that God put in His Word. The scriptures purge the carnal mind, the carnal mind purges scripture. The only guarantee in the whole Word of God is the Holy Spirit and He only quotes verses.

I elaborate more on this in the older 'Church of Lucifer to open in Texas' thread beginning on page 5 here.
If you are a son of God, then you are a 'shining one', a 'morning star', that is...if you exude the light of God, and walking in his Spirit, do righteous works and bear spiritual fruit. The word 'lucifer' (not even really a proper name in other contexts) is but superimposed with so much superstition, fear and mythology, that to redeem the word or rightfully understand would in fact empower a son of God, to more faithfully be a son of LIGHT, as Jesus said he wished that while the light was with his disciples, that they would become sons of light! (see John).
In any case,....while quibbling over translations and different versions of the bible, we ask but for better clarity in our religious education and finally spiritual insight to probe into these matters more prudently
Your an idiot. You are not for Christ. You are teaching antichrist. There is no righteousness in the old testament. You haven't died to the old testament law. Your keeping it alive in you.
[Gal 2:19-21
19 "For I through the law died to the law that I might live to God.
20 "I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the [life] which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
21 "I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness [comes] through the law, then Christ died in vain."
Today is Chamishi, 12-21.
Squeaky, with all due respect did Jesus fulfill all righteousness or not? Did He fulfill the Law and the Prophets or not? Are these different or the same thing or not? Are we instructed by the Apostle Paul in regard to righteousness or not?

text: 3rd day home from rehab. We had court yesterday. The judge is giving him one chance to prove that he is changing his life. He has two months to get a job, do well in school, follow the rules at home and follow the reccomendations of Rehab. If he does, he moves forward on probation. If he doesn't, he will go to detention. No joke this time. I pray that he will find it within himself to rise to the occassion, but it will be up to him. The rehab reccomendations include 3-4 AA meetings a week and a sponsor as well as family/indiv counseling through the in-home program. We'll see. He hates to be told what to do - even by a judge. He has been talking about AA, but I know he views it more as - he will go to meetings WHEN he wants, not on a schedule and won't work with a sponsor. That's a concern. His demeanor at home has been great. Much more connected. He is peaceful and respectful. We will give him this week to see how he does with getting job applications and going to AA meetings. I will not be forcing him to do anything - I am too tired of that and it doesn't work anyway. I will only have him "report" weekly to his probation officer on his progress and let her deal with him. If it's not enough - she can tell him. If it still does not inspire him - he can go to detention. Not my problem. I'm just too tired. He can either do what he is supposed to do and stay in our home, or not. If he goes back to using drugs either while he is on probation or after, he will also not be living in our home......too tired.


text: jbrouwer 5 Report post Posted June 26, 2012 Hi, I've created a custom taxonomy for the location (http://codex.wordpress.org/Taxonomies), added this code to functions.php: function locatie_init() { // create a new taxonomy register_taxonomy( 'locatie', 'post', array( 'label' => __( 'Locatie' ), 'hierarchical' => true, 'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'locatie' ), ) ); } add_action( 'init', 'locatie_init' ); So far so good. I have added the locations to my posts and I was able to output them with this code in the loop: <?php echo get_the_term_list( $post->ID, 'locatie', 'Locatie: ', ', ', '' ); ?> See the locations under the excerpt: http://www.pepperbase.com/ideeen My question is how I can create a custom taxonomy page. Now I get a 404 error. In this post http://sixrevisions.com/wordpress/taxonomy/ I've read that I should create a custom template called taxonomy-'the custom taxonomy'.php, as wordpress looks for it when it comes to taxonomies. Pagelines works a little different I understand, so any help would be greatly appreciated. I already installed the base theme. I created a custom page called page.locatie.php and a custom section called locatie which I selected in the drag and drop section. I created a page where I selected this custom template for. No luck so far, and I am not sure whether this is the right way to do it in pagelines framework. Thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Money "can't buy me love," The Beatles sang in the 1960s, but based on the latest OECD report it certainly helps when it comes to happiness.
In its latest "How's Life?" report released Tuesday, the Paris-based international economic organization found that the global financial crisis hit citizens hard, with reported average life satisfaction diving in the worst-affected nations of the eurozone such as Greece and Spain.
Trust in government also fell, with less than half those surveyed across the 34-nation OECD saying they trusted their governments – the lowest level recorded since 2006.
"This report is a wake-up call to us all," OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría said in a statement. "It is a reminder that the central purpose of economic policies is to improve people's lives. We need to rethink how to place people's needs at the heart of policy-making."
Among the Asia-Pacific nations surveyed, the increasingly wealthy Australians and New Zealanders scored highest in the OECD's Better Life Index, ranking 7.2 for life satisfaction, ahead of the United States on 7 and Japan and South Korea on 6 points each.
This reflected the high employment rate of the Australasian nations, at 73 percent compared to the OECD average of 66 percent. Japanese and Koreans also work considerably longer hours than their Southern Hemisphere counterparts.
Japanese Confidence Dips
The report said Japan ranked at the top in personal security, as well as being above average in education, skills and wealth, but was below average in subjective well-being and work-life balance.
From 2007 to 2011, Japan posed a cumulative increase in real household disposable income of around 4 percent compared to the eurozone's 1 percent drop, with the labor market remaining stable.
However, life satisfaction and trust in government declined to one of the lowest levels in the OECD, perhaps reflecting a crisis of confidence following the March 2011 disasters. The number of households with all adult members consisting of the "working poor" rose to 12 percent, while the wage gap between men and women remained at one of the largest in the grouping.
South Korea's Growing Gap
The OECD said South Korea "performs moderately well in overall measures of well-being," but the gap between the have's and have-nots widened. According to the report, average household net disposable income was $17,337, below the OECD average of $23,047, but the top 20 percent of the population earned more than five times more than the bottom 20 percent.
South Korea performed strongly in the quality of its education system and life expectancy, although it scored lower on environmental indicators such as water quality.
Life Balance Worsens for Aussies, Kiwis
New Zealanders ranked at the top for health and above average in civic engagement and environmental quality, although below average in wealth and work-life balance.
According to the report, New Zealand posted a cumulative increase in real household disposable income of around 6 percent from 2007 to 2011, well above the eurozone, although life satisfaction declined to 73 percent, down from 81 percent due to worsening employment conditions.
Nevertheless, trust in government actually increased, while the nation's gender wage gap was the lowest in the OECD.
Across the Tasman, the OECD found Australia ranked top in civic engagement and above average in all other indicators with the exception of work-life balance.
Like their neighbors, real household disposable income grew in Australia by around 6 percent in the period surveyed, but employment conditions remained relatively stable. Trust in government remained unchanged at 53 percent, while life satisfaction dropped three percentage points to reach the New Zealand level.
According to the OECD, "the full consequences of the economic downturn, in terms of people's health or loss of skills will take time to play out," particularly for the hard-hit nations of the eurozone.
Yet while economists have reported that increased wealth has diminishing returns on happiness, a recent study has found that being happy can improve people's finances.
According to the University of Western Sydney's Professor Satya Paul, a study of 9,300 Australians between 2001 and 2005 found that happier people earned more money. After accounting for other factors such as age, education and location, the study found those most satisfied with their life earned an extra A$1,766 a year compared with those on the bottom of the happiness scale.
"Happy people are more active, more productive and get less upset by work," Paul told the Age newspaper, noting that poor health reduced income by nearly A$800 a year.
Based on Paul's findings, Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry, Be Happy" seems the best song for those hoping to get rich, even if you can't buy happiness.

Birmingham Airport and Solihull Council have agreed new measures to restrict intrusive late night aircraft noise from October.
Charges will be applied to aircraft who breach night noise violation limits, which have been reduced from 85 decibels (dBA) to 83dBA. The airport also indicated that proposals to reduce the noise limit to 81dBA are also set to be considered following a review in 2021.
The changes had previously been called for by Meriden's MP, Dame Caroline Spelman and Castle Bromwich ward councillor, Mike Robinson, who have been supporting concerned residents since the airport unveiled plans to change the existing flight paths as part of an international airspace redesign.
Commenting on the changes, Dame Caroline said, "I welcome the decision taken by Birmingham Airport to introduce a new, lower noise limit on night time flying - something which I have supported local campaigners in calling for ever since the runway was extended in 2014.
"This policy will ensure that aircraft which have a local reputation for causing the greatest noise nuisance, such as the Airbus A380 and Boeing 777, will no longer be able to depart between 11.30pm and 6.00am".
"Having worked closely with a number of residents groups to the north and south of the runway; most recently within the community of Castle Bromwich, I am sure that this policy will be welcomed by those in the worst affected communities. Going forward, I hope that the Airport will continue to develop this policy to ensure further respite measures are introduced to benefit of my constituents in the months and years ahead".

Substitute the salt pork for smoked ham hocks and you've got the traditional southern recipe. Wonderful!!
NO GARLIC? NO ONIONS? NO WAY! You can't possibly be southern! P.S. Save the sugar for the yams.
