Hey Guys,
As a Closer, I love to talk about wealth and building wealth for future generations. Today we are going to take a look at the first half of Dan Lok's wealth triangle. Enjoy!
Your results today are the sum of your thought patterns from the past. So if you are living paycheck to paycheck, the question is, what thought process did you use to achieve the results that you see today? What thought patterns are holding you back from success? Are you up to learning a new way of thinking? If so let me share with you a concept I learned recently.
Dan Lok's wealth triangle
Dan Lok has shared his method for wealth creation in a short YouTube video online. He explains the three steps to wealth as a triangle. Let me give you the short recap on the triangle and my takeaways in the following article.
Side one: Develop a High Income Skill
Before diving into what a High Income Skill is, let's first take a look at the standard thought process for making money. When you were a little kid and you wanted some money for something what did you do? You went and got a job. So straight out a high school, you took the first job that you could find, and started working for minimum wage right?
Now, there is nothing wrong with this, you learn some character you learn how to interact with people and life is great. But not if you stay here!
Usually after a short period of time in this position, we realize that if we had more training or more education, we could get a better job, with better hours and better pay.
So the majority of people go to college, get into debt to get a degree to work a better paying job. There is nothing inherently wrong with this either, if you have a good plan. The golden standard of this method of increasing your income are the doctors and lawyers we all hear about. The only problem is that they still have to work hourly are tied to a physical location.
So how is a High Income Skill different? Well, developing a skill is different in that you master something that you can be paid up front for. You spend the same effort that you would on an associate degree in developing a skill, and becoming the leading expert in your field (as the go to person that can get the job done).
This is also different because you are not working per hour, you are working per task. The more efficient you are the better paid you will become.
Some examples of skills are photographers, barbers, closers, marketers, copywriters, or niche social media managers. Typically this is anything you can charge at least a thousand dollars for and finish in one day.
There are always three things that business will pay for in any economy and that is branding, marketing and sales. This is because without a brand, marketing and sales; you don't have a business.
For an example of a High Income Skill, let's look at photography. If you are the best photographer in your area in a specific niche and you charge $1000 for a shoot, how many of these shoots do you need to do per week to make a good living?
Another example is a High End Barber, if you develop this skill and are charging 50-100 for a haircut, how many cuts would you need to do per week to make a good living? What is you become the best of the best and offer to go to the customers and now charge what the presidential barber charges $1000 per hair cut. How many cuts do you need now?
The list of possibilities for skills will never run out because all you need to do, is become the leading expert in your field. You've got to stick with your skill longer than everyone else. How many people have studied and practiced a specific skill for 10000+ hours? Not many.
How many people have spent more than just one year to understand the whole of medicine or the whole of law but one specific niche within that industry? Once you find that High Income Skill, you get to choose who you work with.
You can then go anywhere in the world with confidence, knowing you can rely on your skills to make money for you.
I hope you have found this first half of the article to be helpful. Look for the second half later this week, where we will cover the remaining two sides of the wealth triangle.

New Year Reflection!
Hello everybody! Now before I begin this post, I would like to apologise for only having Nine Posts of Christmas instead of twelve. Last week was quite a hectic week and on top of that, I had fallen quite ill and basically didn't leave my bed. On top of all that, my Wi-Fi was down and WordPress wouldn't allow me to post anything. Once again, my sincere apologies, and let's make next year a better one! For my last post this year, I am doing a reflection of all the amazing (and maybe not so amazing) moments this year!

In 2013 Paula completed a Diploma in Art and Design at Putney School of Art. Her working style is based around a family crisis which happened a decade ago and explores absence, loss and separation.
Paula uses a variety of mediums to communicate her feelings and emotions about existing, revered imagery. Extensive initial research and focus on an idea invariably leads to a particular route presenting itself to her as the best way to move forward and from this point on, a process of learning and exploration begins on a continuum basis. Each artwork evolves alongside Paula's increased understanding of the original image it references and her handling and management of the chosen medium.
Her latest series explores the continuous mediation of a single image via mechanical processes. The mediated image evolves as it is processed through multiple mechanical methods, gathering unique characteristics at each stage which alter it through enhancement or degradation and dislocate it from its original state and intended meaning. Through experimentation and mechanical exploitation of borrowed images she explores new ways to combine and capture idiosyncrasies, showing the potential for a new narrative through her resultant artworks.

The power of prayer
Did you know that… praying has many health benefits?
Researchers at Harvard Medical School conducted a study to investigate the short and long-term effects of meditation, yoga and repetitive prayer on gene expression.
What they discovered was that those who had been practising meditation, yoga and repetitive prayer had turned on more "disease-fighting genes".
Meditation, yoga and repetitive prayer had switched on what is called the relaxation response.
Incorporating these spiritual practices into your child's life and your family's life can have positive effects on everyone's mental and physical wellbeing.

text: The Red-legged Cormorant is almost restricted to the cold-water Humboldt Current region of Peru and Chile; the only other region where it occurs is on the Atlantic coast of southern Argentina. This attractive species is recognizable instantly by the brilliant colors of the bill and tarsi. It also is unusual for the color of the plumage: a muted gray, spotted with white, rather than the black, or stark black and white, of most other species of cormorants. Red-legged Cormorants forage in salt water, but tend to remain relatively close to shore. They also forage solitarily. The Red-legged Cormorant has a wide distribution, but is uncommon throughout its range, and has experienced significant population declines in recent years in Peru; its conservation status is rated as Near-Threatened.

Immortals announced Wednesday the signing of Team Phoenix, a recently-reformed Dota 2 team.
Introducing a new chapter in the Immortals legacy. Welcome @febbydota @mentalprotector @DubuDota @ForevDoto & @qodota to #IMTDOTA! pic.twitter.com/5sKXUKvAe3
— Immortals (@Immortals) September 13, 2017
The roster consists of Kim "DUBU"Doo-young, Lee "FOREV"Sang-don, Kim "QO" Seon-yeob, Kim "FEBBY" Yong-min, and Pyo "MP" No-a. The players recently hinted at a reunion for the former MVP Phoenix team that became fan favorites at The International 6.
"At Immortals, we've made no secret of our desire, under the right set of conditions, to enter Dota 2. We were drawn to Dota because of the enthusiasm and avidity of the title's fan base and the best-in-class live event experience," Immortals CEO Noah Winston said in a news release. "The game, fans, and presentation create a special combination of quality content and entertainment, precisely the kind of experience Immortals looks to deliver to our supporters.
"Immortals remains committed to fielding winning teams and, simultaneously, adding value to the ecosystems and communities in which we compete. We look forward to the challenge of continuing to raise the bar for content and fan engagement in Dota and to furthering our mission, across all titles, of uniting fans and players, and bringing the esports community closer than it has ever been to the games it loves."
Immortals will produce behind-the-scenes content for the fans of the new team, with plans in the works to increase interaction between players and fans through in-person activities and events at numerous venues, including LA Live in downtown Los Angeles.
The announcement comes after Whinston explained in a video last week his organization was actively looking to enter Dota 2. Apart from the content mentioned above, Immortals will host sweepstakes and giveaways as another way of increasing team-fan interaction.
The new roster will be Immortals' sixth professional team, adding Dota 2 to the list of esports it competes in, as it has teams for League of Legends, Counter-Strike, Overwatch, Super Smash Bros and Vainglory.

What would you do if you felt truly supported?
Yesterday I asked myself a question...
"What would you do it you felt truly supported?"
I was driving at the time (on my way to my first shiatsu massage) and pondering something.
It happens to be one of my favourite questions to ask or journal on when I feel unsure.
There are more times than I can even begin to count or share, where I've made a decision based on fear or lack, so it's a really lovely question to ask.
You see, over the years the fear of not being able to fully support myself has been one of two triggers I've identified that cause my anxiety to rear it's not so pretty head and lead the decision making process in a not so useful way.
When I ask that question however, it seems to instantly take me out of my head and into...
Well, I don't even know how to describe it exactly...
...but into the that place of the deepest sense of knowing on what is right for me. That feeling when you just KNOW, without a single shadow of any doubt. I'm sure you've felt it in you too, so please feel free to call it what fits best for you...
Intuition, divine guidance, something else...
Sometimes I know it's been my own doing, I've pushed people away, I've not accepted help because I didn't want to 'put someone out'. I thought/assumed I had to do it all on my own, because I wasn't used to people being there for me.
It's led to one very independent and capable woman being present in this world, yet it's also led to that same woman struggling to receive help or support when offered, and it's definitely led to that same woman not knowing how to ask for help when she's really needed it.
It's been a daily practice since for me to let go of those habits since discovering/seeing them.
And a practice that has seen me become more open over the years to receiving compliments when given (instead of instantly deflecting them) and a helping hand when it's been kindly offered. It still does't always feel comfy accepting those things, yet I'm getting over it and it's no longer entirely out of the question to enjoy them.
So, yeah, the whole feeling/letting myself be supported thing...
I've been getting there. The question above really has been lovely to ask, and the answers it's provided have been even more beautiful and reassuring to receive.
Yet, can I hand on heart now say I feel truly supported in this big universe of ours after all these years of practice? That I don't have to do it all alone? That I KNOW I'll be ok?
I wish I could give you the answer my head logically knows, that it is possible, yet I can't say my honest answer from that deep sense of knowing place would be the same.
I guess I thought I had/was getting there more than I was, until I lay on the floor during my shiatsu massage. There was a pillow under my head to support it, yet it was only just under the top of my head, it wasn't supporting all of me or my neck fully.
Yet I didn't want to move, I just thought 'oh well, that'll be enough, it'll do...'
It was right then I saw I hadn't actually even scratched the surface. I wasn't even allowing myself to be fully supported by a pillow. I can't remember what was happening at the time, but I stopped everything to move that pillow right under my head. It felt like the smallest yet most significant thing I could do to show the universe I really did want to feel and be supported, and be open to not feeling the need to do this all solo.
When I drove home, I instantly knew this had to be my word of the year.
I thought it was going to be something else, yet this was and is far more important.
So this is my year, 2018, the year of being SUPPORTED.
I'm allowing that word to show up in all the ways it wants, and even in these last few short 24 hours or so since deciding, it's already shown me so much. So yes, hey there universe, friend, I'm open to being supported. Show me all that you have.
With love -

This glazed ham is coated in a sweet brown sugar and honey glaze, then baked until golden brown and caramelized. The ultimate holiday ham that's super easy to make and always gets rave reviews.
You can never go wrong with ham for the holidays and this glazed version is both beautiful and delicious. Serve your ham with loaded mashed potatoes and bacon wrapped green beans for a festive meal that your family and friends will love.
Ham is a classic main course around the holidays, and the nice thing about buying a ham is that most of the work is already done for you. Hams come pre-smoked, fully cooked and spiral cut, all you have to do is add some flavorings and you're ready to go. This glazed ham has a rich and delicious glaze that gets perfectly caramelized in the oven. Best of all, it's super easy to make!
How do you make ham glaze?
This ham glaze is a mixture of brown sugar, honey, butter and spices which all get simmered together until a thick and syrupy mixture forms. Half of the glaze gets brushed over the ham while it heats up. The rest of the glaze gets added at the end of the baking time and the oven temperature is increased to ensure a browned and crispy exterior.
You'll need to reserve half of the glaze to use after your ham is mostly cooked through. You can store the glaze at room temperature or in the fridge. The glaze may start to harden as it sits – simply microwave the glaze in 30 second increments until it's liquid when you're ready to use it.
How do you cook a glazed ham?
There are two common ways to cook a ham. A ham can either be baked in the oven, or made in a crock pot. You can actually heat your ham through either way for this recipe, but if you choose to use a crock pot, you'll have to transfer your ham to the oven for the final step of the recipe.
How long do you cook a glazed ham?
A ham needs to cook for about 20 minutes per pound in the oven at 325 degrees F. This is for a standard half ham around 7-8 pounds. If you choose to cook your ham in a slow cooker, it will take about 3-4 hours on low heat.
How much ham per person?
You can plan on serving about 3/4 pound of ham per person for a standard bone-in half ham. If you'd like a lot of leftovers at the end of your meal, you can increase this amount to 1 pound of ham per person.
How do you know when ham is done?
Your ham is already cooked when it comes out of the package, all you're actually doing is warming your ham through to the proper food safe temperature. A ham is ready to eat when a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham reads at least 140 degrees F.
What to serve with ham
I recommend serving a variety of side dishes with your ham, including a potato dish, a green vegetable, and an additional starch like stuffing. Here are some of my favorite side dish options.
- Glazed Carrots
- Slow Cooker Creamed Corn
- Mashed Sweet Potatoes
- Pomegranate Roasted Brussels Sprouts
- Cranberry Jello Salad
Slow cooker glazed ham
This ham can easily be made in the slow cooker, then finished in the oven. Place the ham in a slow cooker and pour half the glaze over the top. Cook for 3-4 hours on low heat. Transfer the ham to a pan and pour the remaining glaze over the top. Bake at 400 degrees F for 15-20 minutes until browned.
What do you do with leftover ham?
Got leftover ham? That's a great situation to be in because there are so many different things you can make with leftover ham. I have compiled a whole list of 40 Leftover Ham Recipes for your perusal.
This glazed ham is sure to become a favorite with your family as it has been with mine!
Glazed Ham Video

- Place the ham in the pan and pour half of the glaze over it. Cover the ham with foil. Reserve the remaining glaze for later user.
- Bake the ham for 2 1/2 hours. Uncover the ham.
- Pour the remaining glaze over the ham. If the glaze has started to harden, you can microwave it for a few seconds to loosen it back up.
- Increase the oven temperature to 400 degrees F.

Dai Zhikang
Dai's parents were farmers, and his early years were spent looking after their pigs and cows in Jiangsu province, the fourth of six children.
But Dai's family were ambitious for him and maintained his schooling. He won a place at Renmin University where he studied finance. The extended family paid his way, although it was hardly a princely sum. His living expenses were just $2.50 a month. (Read more..)
Liu Yiqian
From the younger generation of super-rich, Liu Yiqian is China's biggest art collector.
Chinese media have dubbed him "the eccentric Mr Liu" because he wears T-shirts to work and shaves only occasionally, but his investment style suggests he is highly savvy. (Read more..)
Zheng Yonggang
Zheng Yonggang is unusual amongst China's top entrepreneurs.
Firstly, his $600m (£377m) fortune was built by taking a state-owned firm into the private sector, whereas most wealth is made from companies started from scratch. (Read more..)
Zhou Xiaoguang
As a teenager Zhou Xiaoguang hauled a 50kg bag of trinkets around China on night trains selling her wares. Now her company, Neoglory, is the world's market leader in costume and fashion jewellery.
Neoglory once was a simple low-cost manufacturer, churning out cheap rings, bracelets and necklaces. (Read more..)
Zhu Gongshan
There is little information in the public domain about energy company boss Zhu Gongshan – and one gets the impression he prefers it that way.
While other billionaires invited me to their offices or even their homes, Zhu preferred to talk in a hotel suite hired solely for the occasion. (Read more..)
Zong Qinghou
I met Zong Qinghou, by some measures China's richest man, in his office – an anonymous building near Hangzhou railway station.

The 2019 Genesis G70 3.3T is a performance bargain that offers dashing good looks, a potent V-6, and exceptional dynamics that, despite tight rear seating, a smallish trunk, and middling fuel economy, is a worthy competitor to compact sports sedans from Germany, Japan, and the US.
Continue Reading »
We get some seat time in the 2020 Hyundai Palisade, which impresses with a handsome exterior, stunning interior, and smooth, quiet ride. At the same time, body acceleration is only adequate, the infotainment system can be distracting, while the lack of a hybrid model means fuel economy is just mid-pack.
We spend a week in the all-new 2019 Santa Fe that offers sharper styling, a more spacious interior, and a wider range of standard active features, while maintaining the model's compelling value proposition. At the same time, fuel economy is only average, the transmission is a bit slack down low, while the slick turbo-four is only available on Limited and Ultimate models.
Following a major re-design last year, the 2019 Mazda CX-5, the brand's best-selling vehicle four years running, adds a new turbo engine for two new trim levels, as well as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability on select models, while continuing with class-above features at every price point. But it remains held back by an awkward infotainment interface, middling cargo volume, and a stiff ride with too much road and wind noise on models with larger wheels.

OverviewLa Petite Turrà (France, Region Rhone-Alpes Department: Savoy), dominated by its 2507 meters, the Col du Mont Cenis.
It is located at Nor-West of the Hill and, although not being one of the highest peaks of the mountain arc around the lake of Mont Cenis, it is certainly one of the most beautiful scenic locations throughout the area.
La Petite Turrà is a real balcony on Savoy, is a natural observatory, is a paradise for the eyes (the view over the Vanoise and the lake is uncomparable).
Also in August, the area is often whipped by icy winds from the north, but this is not a limitation of the place, but rather a further boost to visit.
The Petite Turrà sky is always incredibly clear and blue.
Getting ThereFrom Turin:
take the A32 motorway Turin-Bardonecchia, exit the Town of Susa (35' by car); then follow the indications for the Hill of MontCenis. You have to do the route that follow the ancient path of the Napoleonic Road (It's thank to him if the most important Hills between France and Piedmont were finally opened with modern routes). You have to do nine chilometers to reach the beautiful plateau of MontCenis (approx 20' by car). Don't forget that in the late autumn, the first snow could cover the last bends of the road (Scale del Moncenisio), then if you go with a fourweeler it is better!.
Once you has arrived at the Lake, you have to continue in direction Hill of Montcenis.
You park your car at the Granges of Ramasse location, where start the dirt road direction La Petite Turrà.
The Map
Aerial View.
Trail DescriptionThe starting point of the road to Petit Turrà is located at the Granges "Ramasse" (2.030m.).
Before you get on the bike, take a look at the south wall of the Petit Turrà is overhanging on the Col du Mont Cenis, you will see in the rock the gun embrasures of the French fortress. They look like the eye sockets of a giant.
From those holes, in June 1940, a handful of French soldiers with two guns prevented thousands of Italian soldiers to pass the hill.
The path climbs steeply through a forest of larch, following the south-east side of the mountain, at some point encountered a wooden gate that you can pass (remember to close it, otherwise escape the cows).
After drawing an arc around the northern side of the mountain, reach the Combe de Clery (2120m.), where you move on the North side of Le Grand Coin
Up to a hut and a small chapel, off to your left (south) the dirt road that leads to the Pas de La Beccia and the Fort of Petit Turrà.
Sweep down the long stretch of dirt road, irregular and very stony, which will take you to 2380 m. almost to the bottom of the Combe de Clery.
Continuing along the dirt road on the west side of the Petit Turrà, pass through the military village and then up to 2507 meters of the fortress itself.
It is amonumental entrance with a large number of defensive slits for riflemen.
Once you are in the passed parade of the fort, with spectacular views to the north of the Massif de la Vanoise, and to the south a complete panorama that goes from Lake Monceniso to all the lower Susa Valley.
The visit of the fortress is possible and very impressive (especially the tunnels dug into the rock), you just have with you waterproof clothing and two light torches.

Brain-drain and Brain Circulation
How They Affect the Achievement of Prosperity.
Alexander B. Koroh
Many pieces of evidence assert that most of Indonesians who study or live in advanced countries do not want or at least are reluctant to go back to Indonesia. This is a thorny issue since Indonesia as a developing country really needs the knowledge and experiences from developed countries to assist this country in enhancing the quality of individuals' and communities' life. Thus the Indonesian (governments and stakeholders) should attempt to hinder the occurrence of brain-drain. Evidence shows that brain-drain happened widely in the Soeharto'sEra; I guess this condition also contributed to multiplier dimensions crisis in 1998. This is a very high cost for Indonesia existence because this country was almost collapse. It could be said also that brain-drain causes Indonesia at a backward position compared to Malaysia, India, China, and Brunei Darussalam.In Soeharto's era, brain-drain occurred because of political reasons, for instance if somebody was in different position than Soeharto. But nowadays, brain-drain still happened, because the systems that have been built for long time is not well-reformed yet; it tends to refuse bright and creative people. For instance, a friend of mine who accomplished his PhD in New Zealand, and when he came back to Indonesia, the public organization where he worked refuse him softly, the local government does not provide appropriate and sufficient official posisition. Finally he applied a job as lecturer in Malaysia, and a university there accepted him. Put in simply brain-drain is a condition where the bright academics and well-experienced citizens move and live in other countries instead of their own countries.
Advocates of status quo always blame that the backward position of Indonesia happened because Indonesia is too big and achieved its independence 60s years ago. What they are saying Indonesia is not in appropriate age to become a developed country. Perhaps this is wrong, China and India for Instance which are much bigger than Indonesia make better progress than Indonesia in various aspects of life. The progress occurs in India particularly in information and technology sector because there is a brain-circulation. Plenty of bright fresh graduates from prestigious universities in India are recruited by IT companies in advanced countries such as the United States of America, UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. However, they do not stay and live in those countries permanently but only for contemporary (for several years) then coming back to India and contribute for the progress of IT and other sectors in India. Simply speaking, brain-circulation is a conducive atmosphere where the knowledge and experience moves away for a contemporary time in a certain country then coming back and apply their knowledge and experience in their homeland.
Absolutely true that prosperity is not only depends on brain-drain or brain circulation; there are many factors that determine the emergence of prosperity in a country. The leadership style, the work ethos of people, the natural resources and the political system are the factors that also pretty vital for the emergence of the prosperity. But since knowledge, skill, and expertise are the locomotive for change and progress; brain-drain and brain-circulation are crucial to be deeply observed. I guess brain-drain is negatively affects the realization of prosperity, meanwhile brain-circulation is supportive for the emergence of the prosperityof a country.

Introduction to Ion Tracks
Push or pull for ion acceleration? From everyday life we are familiar with attractive and repulsive forces between atoms. Whenever we push an object we use repulsive forces. Whenever we pull it we use attractive forces. These forces have short range. They vanish after few atomic distances. Click on image to show ion.
Electrostatic accelerators use a constant electric field. The total ion energy gain corresponds to the product of the charge state of the ion times the acceleration voltage and is measured in Mega Electron Volt (MeV = 1 Mio eV). DC accelerators provide constant-current ion beams with well defined energy and narrow angular spread. They are known as Van de Graaff accelerators. Click on image to show tandem accelerator.
Tandem accelerators consist of two accelerator sections in series with a gas chamber in-between. Section (1) accelerates negative ions toward the gas chamber. In the gas chamber several electrons are stripped off from each ion leading to positive ions. Section (2) accelerates the positive ions back to ground potential. Click on image to show Van de Graaff accelerator.
Cyclotrons consist of two hollow D-shaped electrodes separated by an accelerating gap. A magnetic field bends the ion path. The bending radius increases proportional to the ion speed. The spiral path reflects the gradual increase of energy. Click on image to animate.
Linear high frequency accelerators consist of a series of drift tubes separated by acceleration gaps. Alternating voltage is applied to neighboring drift tubes. Ions arriving at the acceleration gap at the right time (phase) are accelerated. The requirement leads to the formation of discrete ion bunches of similar speed. This condition is comparable to the situation of wave surfers adjusting their speed to the wave speed. Ions reaching the gap at the right time are accelerated. Click on image to show equivalent potential.
Equivalent potential of a linear high frequency accelerator. The ion energy increases step by step. Vertical sections correspond to acceleration gaps. Horizontal sections correspond to drift tubes. The length of the drift tubes increases with the ion velocity. The result is a chopped ion beam. The total ion energy at the exit of the accelerator corresponds to the charge state of the ion times the number of gaps times the gap voltage. Ions of different mass obtain identical velocity. They are accelerated to the same specific energy measured in MeV per nucleon. If we know, which specific energy a proton has acquired, we obtain the total energy of a heavy ion by multiplying the specific energy of a proton with the number of nucleons (protons and neutrons) of this heavy ion. Ions with the same specific energy have identical speed and similar penetration range. Click on image to show linear accelerator.
Irradiation systems
Wide field irradiations at 90 degree are performed by defocusing the ion beam with a magnetic lens. The beam parallelism increases with the distance between the lens and the target. Click image to show 45 degree irradiation.
Parallel beam irradiations at 90 degree are performed using beam broadening with two magnetic lenses. The first lens is widening the beam. The second lens is refocusing the beam. Click image to show 45 degree irradiation.
Raster scanners consist of two pairs of deflector magnets placing a parallel ion beam at a predetermined location. Click image to switch deflection on.
Ion microbeam comprising (not shown) beam defining aperture, antiscattering aperture and particle detector. Click image to switch to 45 degree irradiation.
Radiation effect
Collision cascade. The ion collides with target electrons which in turn collide with further target electrons. The motion expands radial from the ion path. The number of moving electrons increases while their average energy decreases. The motion dies out when the energy becomes too small to knock-off further electrons. Click image to show average effect.
Importance of conductivity. Insulators have low electron mobility. The collision cascade is confined in a small volume. The local radiation effect is high. Click to show metal.
Thermal spike model of track creation. Along the ion path a hot cylinder is formed. The cylinder expands rapidly while cooling down. Material heated above a certain temperature (for example the melting point) retains a radiation effect (for example disorder). Click image to animate.
Ion track etching
Etch geometry at track etch ratio 5:1 where etching proceeds five times faster along the track axis (long arrow) than in the base material (short arrow). The track etch ratio corresponds to the ratio of the arrow lengths. Click image to animate etch process.

Notes and Links:
Cheaper HomePod might lead Apple's push for lower prices
- A version between $150 and $200 will change that, if a report from Taiwan's Economic Daily News is correct.
- This unconfirmed report doesn't say what features will change to lower the cost that significantly. However, a separate research note from Rosenblatt analyst Jun Zhang says the upcoming cheaper HomePod will be smaller.
- This isn't expected to be a replacement for the current HomePod. It would be a lower-priced alternative that's within the grasp of a far wider potential audience, enabling Apple to better compete with the Amazon Echo and Dot smart speakers.
Leaked Apple email hints at the possible end of iTunes
- Apple could kill off iTunes in the near future, a new report suggests.
- It cites an email that Apple reportedly wrote to people in the music industry recently, announcing the "end of iTunes LPs." The iTunes LP format was first introduced in 2009 and let publishers add interactive artwork, along with assorted iTunes Extras, with their content.
- The LP format never achieved great popularity. However, the fact that Apple plans to ditch iTunes LPs in 2018 potentially hints at the possibility that Apple may stop selling iTunes music downloads in the near future.
- According to a previous report by The Wall Street Journal, Apple Music is currently growing at a rate of around 5 percent each month.
Here's how much a new iPhone battery boosts performance
- A new video posted online by Bennett Sorbo compares an iPhone 6s with depleted battery against one with a fresh battery.
- The two iPhones are then put head to head as they run through a variety of CPU-intensive tasks, including opening apps, using the internet, playing games and videos, and more.
MoviePass says it's 'exploring' gathering location data on users, but it won't sell it
- MoviePass responded late this evening to a number of reports calling into question the company's privacy policy after CEO Mitch Lowe publicly claimed the theater subscription service tracks its users' locations.

Canyon Empty Rooms
Published Dec 01, 2002Should Syd Barrett, Pink Floyd's MIA former leader, re-emerge and give indie rock a shot, chances are it would sound a little like Canyon's sophomore disc, Empty Rooms. With instrumentation that includes organ, electric piano, lap-steel guitar and harmonica, the disc's ten tracks immediately recall days of psychedelic prog-rock past with contemporary twangy tinges of alt-country and slo-core thrown into the mix. From album opener "Sleepwalker through to the epic "Mansion on the Mountain and "Head Above, which typifies what Canyon is all about, this swirling, spacy, ethereal trip is one that Barrett would surely be happy to take.

BORING! so, we have unanswered questions after watching this. If you seen the TV series Doll House, maybe this was the mind control direction where it was heading?
The nudity was tame, even with senior citizen male genitals exposed. Emily Browning is petite and looks young, like a pre-teen. There is nothing special here.
Poor character development, and a pretentious plot. And the lead actress is no sleeping beauty. Yawn.....
Polanski-esque film, clearly written in the spirit of Repulsion, yet not as well-executed. It's another story of the plight of the beautiful woman. Few people are going to get the point of the film as they can't perceive she has any difficulties. She starts off as a student, struggling alone to pay for her education. She works as a subject in a scientific experiment, as an office cleric, a cleaner and, because she is highly desirable, by selling her body. Her beauty is her strength but it also makes her the prey. She is gradually debased to being nothing more than her body, an unconscious plaything for powerful, older men. Being nothing but a 'piece of meat' leads inextricably to death, a fact she 'awakens' to in the end of the film. Depressing film but I appreciated the effort.
Oh, Well, what to say...first off, this is Not a Jane Campion film;
it is Presented by her, the film is actually by Julia Leigh. Actually, that's all there is to say about this film.
This is a quirky movie. The idea behind it is somewhat original and the portrayal of the story is well done. Not a film for everyone, (sex fantasies) but a unique watch.
This is an Australian movie. Sometimes POSH people speak with pretentitous British accents as was the custom for educated people back in the day or are simply British people who have immigrated to Australia.
One problem with modern Aussie films is that they get funding by the Film Commission based on only a treatment. This makes for many films with a fairly interesting concept but no plot fleshed out and no effort needed at good screenwriting. This played at Cannes, so there is a demand for this movie regardless of its amateurish quality, so I don't blame the library staff for this experience.
Julia Leigh is WAY overrated as a writer and director. I didn't realize until the end that it was her work or I would have parachuted earlier. I have seen some gushing reviews of this really awful movie. Very Emporer's New Clothes. I suspect it justifies their interest in seeing some pretty young thing (such lovely skin) talk dirty and get her kit off as FINE ART. Too bad this movie is neither sexy nor intellectual.
My least favorite part of this was the pretentious unedited lecturing by the old gent who later appears in the final scene. I watched the whole thing only to see if the ending would be as non-existent as I expected. Sigh. Wooden acting, blank looks, and repetitious dialogue is meant to pass as mythic depth. And rather than expending the effort to write something ACTUALLY meaningful, the sloppy plotlines are left dangling in an effort to be profoundly COOLER THAN THOU.
Like- don't you GET it?
Um. No. No, I don't.
British accents, but Canadian money (at least that is what it looked like to me).
This movie was flipping weird and not in the artys kind of movie way. It was just weird. What is with the dying drunk guy she visits, did we miss a whole chunk of the movie there? And what is the point of her sleeping. Why? And why does she freak out so bad when she wakes up. It was just weird.
Um, yeah. The best I can say is that if a guy watches this movie, it's porn. If a woman watches it, it's erotica. It's an empty bit of rubbish. There's no real story worth telling.The movie should have been called 'Dumb and Dumber' but that title was already taken. I disagree with the comments below suggesting that it's worthy of discussion in a film study class. It's not, unless the class is about how to make a pretentious movie with Britishy accents and supposedly classy manners and stylish clothes to cover up a lousy script that's a prop for a lot of silly nudity. I challenge any woman to watch this movie without rolling their eyes and no fast forwarding. I'm not sure the library staff watched it before ordering it. If so, I'd like to read the criteria for selecting movies! Is there a quota of bad movies the library has to buy?! Anyway, that said, borrow it for s***s and giggles.
To say this movie was bad. It's an understatement. It's a train wreck. Don't waste your time, but if you must watch it go for it and see if you agree with the rest of us!

Greenport Village All New Two Family Residence built in almost 20 years. Two separate residences placed back to back with the front house at 213 North, offering 4 bedrooms, main floor half bath and large master suite and full laundry room on the second floor. 215 North offers three bedrooms, and 2.5 baths and full walk out basement with patio to the backyard. Both feature living rooms with gas fireplaces, open concept kitchen and dining spaces with sliding glass doors to the side yards. Private entry ways for each of the homes. Both homes have a large sitting porch by the front doors.
Here is a great opportunity to consider multi-generation homes. This is one of the fastest growing segments of the new construction market nationally. Sharing costs but still affording separate residences for personal space, yet close enough to stay connected. In addition, this can be a great income stream to own and rent the second space. The layout also speaks to the housing shortage options for the vibrant village economy with those looking for long term rental spaces.
This location offers easy access to 3rd Street park and 5th street sandy bay beach, park, playground, restrooms, picnic area, volley ball court and dock out on the water for fishing. The center of the village features a waterfront park and theater.

Sharing Faith and Participating with God's Mission with People of Other Faiths
by Jeff Ritchie
My friendship with Jeff Horen goes back to our days in junior high in Louisville, Kentucky. Our birthdays are two days apart. We were inseparable in high school where we specialized in "creative play" to the consternation of our teachers. During class we surreptitiously played "dots." In breaks between classes we played paper-wad basketball (the "goal" was the trash can in our classroom). Outside of class we had an on-going rivalry in ping-pong and backyard basketball. We had a special connection which we have kept through the years since high school.
My friend Jeff is an Orthodox Jew, and I am a Christian. We have talked about matters of faith for decades, but the past year the conversation has gone deeper. We began a year-long exploration of the metanarratives of our respective faiths; I asked him what the big story is that shapes his life as an Orthodox Jew, and he asked me to do the same for my life as a Christian. The impact of our efforts has been transformative for me, as I hope it has been for him.
It has been quite a challenge to put down on paper a coherent narrative that could encapsulate the Christian metanarrative for a friend who has a working knowledge of the Bible but whose interpretive lens for the Christian narrative is Christians he knows and the stories he has read of how Christians have behaved toward the Jews through the centuries. Part of my journey with Jeff this year has included reading a primer on antisemitism by Dennis Prager and Joseph Telushkin, Why the Jews? Through it I was reminded that vitriolic language against Jews, forced conversions, persecution, and pogroms were not limited to "evil people" like Hitler and the Nazis but included "saints" as well – for example, Ambrose of Milan, John Chrysostom, and Martin Luther. It has been quite a humbling year for me.
On the positive side, the year was also an opportunity for me to step inside a Jewish way of describing the world. My friend Jeff introduced me to some of the greats of the Jewish tradition, people like Maimonides from the 12th century and Sir Jonathan Sacks, Chief Rabbi in the United Kingdom from 2005-2013. Both men, living 900 years apart, have modeled an engagement of the distilled Jewish wisdom of the centuries and the wisdom of the non-Jewish world in their efforts to guide the Jewish people in matters of faith and practice.
Particularly impressive was the book by Rabbi Sacks, To Heal a Fractured World: The Ethics of Responsibility. There were some immediate takeaways from the book, and it has inspired me to go deeper in the new year and take on the "global challenge" he offers on his website: "Join Rabbi Sacks' global challenge to inspire a new generation of Jewish leaders and deepen the conversation between Torah and the wisdom of the world." My personal commitment for 2018 is to look at the perspectives, the lenses, through which all kinds of people see the world and engage them with the perspective of Jesus as I understand it.
One of those perspectives is regarding the multitude of ways in which followers of Jesus can participate with God who is building his kingdom on earth "as it is in heaven." There are some things that the Church, as Church, uniquely does. We alone share the good news that in Jesus God has come to redeem the world. His life, death, resurrection and second coming are the mighty acts by which God sets the world to rights and brings the kingdom of heaven on earth.
But my journey into Judaism through reading deeply faithful people like Rabbi Sacks has reinforced what Presbyterians have long understood regarding other aspects of mission, especially missions of compassion, mercy and justice. The call to missions like these comes not only to Christians but also to people of other faiths or to people who describe themselves as non-religious. In response to God's call, Christians and non-Christians alike may be found on Habitat for Humanity work crews, in refugee camps vaccinating children against malaria, working in homeless shelters, caring for senior citizens, and working to reform our criminal justice system.
In To Heal a Fractured World: The Ethics of Responsibility, Rabbi Sacks uses a phrase from the Jewish tradition to describe these "works of the kingdom." It is "tikkun olam," which may be paraphrased, "the mending of the torn fabric of the world." The world as described by the Bible, which both Jews and Christians acknowledge as God's word, is a broken, fractured world. In To Heal a Fractured World, Rabbi Sacks calls on all people, beginning with his people, to participate in the mending of this world in large and small ways.
Many Christians share this perspective as well. A document of the Presbyterian Church (USA) from 2003 speaks of the value of doing mission in partnership with others who share a common vision of alleviating the suffering and brokenness in the world:
Christians may initiate mission partnerships with people of other faiths or no faiths, or we may add our kingdom perspective to that of others who approach a broken part of the world from a different motivation and together seek to heal that part of the human or natural fabric so that it more reflects God's intention. As we enter 2018, may we be attentive to the Spirit of God both to hear what God is calling us to do and with whom God is calling to work, all for the sake of the prayer we pray each Sunday: "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven."

Apple Cobbler
As the intoxicating aroma of apples and cinnamon filled my kitchen, I felt a few pangs of guilt that our boys, particularly my middle guy who loves apple-y desserts, would not be home to share this with us. Would that I could send them a little portion in the mail, complete with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!! Higher learning really interferes with the consuming if delicious desserts!! I'll have to add this to the list of "things I promise to make when you come home for Thanksgiving break", because this easy apple cobbler, with its apple pie like filling, topped with tender flaky buttermilk biscuits, is out of this world delish!!! A must make this autumn!!
If you've been following the blog lately, you'll have read of my post-apple picking tale of woe to eat and cook pounds and pounds of fresh apples. When I saw this recipe I was immediately intrigued because though I've made tons of cobblers in my life (here on the site you can find recipes for Blueberry Cobbler, Skillet Blackberry Cobbler, Nectarine-Vanilla Cobbler, Peach Plum Cobbler,heck even a savory Chicken and Vegetable version) but for some reason I've never made one using apples as the base. Now I believe it will be an annual seasonal tradition in my house!!
And it's easy, guys! After peeling and chopping up a bunch of apples, you sauté some in butter, sugar, apple cider, lemon juice and zest and cinnamon until they've softened up a bit and then you top them with an easy-to-make buttermilk biscuit dough that you cut into little rounds. It's kind of adorable looking in that charming, homey way which is what cobblers are all about!
The hardest part is sniffing the air while it's baking and having to wait for it to finish! Every bite is full of the goodness of warm cinnamon-sugary tender apples and flaky golden biscuits. In the recipe below, I list that the vanilla ice cream is optional but we all know that it's really not!! The combo of the cold, creamy, mellow ice cream with the crunchy/cakey biscuits and slightly tart apple filling is heavenly!! It's got all the goodness of apple pie with about half the work and what a blessing that is in these busy days!! After burning our tongues 'cause we just couldn't wait for it to cool down a bit, all my testers (read me, my husband and our daughter) proclaimed this the perfect seasonal dessert!! I guarantee you'll think so too! Try it and let me know!!
Apple Cobbler
Serves 6-8 people
Prep Time: 25 minutes; Bake Time: 30-35 minutes
For the Apples
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the dish
- 6 large tart apples, peeled, cored and cut into small chunks
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup apple cider or unfiltered apple juice
- The grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
For the Biscuits
- 1 cup self-rising flour or 1 cup of unbleached, all-purpose flour mixed with 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter cut into 1/4-inch cubes
- 1/3 cup well-shaken buttermilk, cold
Vanilla ice cream or sweetened whipped cream to top it all off (optional)
The Recipe
1. Preheat oven to 400ºf and butter a 9-inch square baking dish. Set aside.
2. Melt the butter in a large heavy skillet over medium heat and add the apples, sugar, apple cider, lemon zest and juice and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring every now and then, until the apples are somewhat tender. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cinnamon. Then pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan, including all the juices and set aside while you make the biscuits.
3. To make the biscuits: Place the flour, sugar and salt in a large mixing bowl and whisk together. Add the cubed butter and use a pastry blender or two forks to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles the texture of cornmeal. Pour in the buttermilk and use a fork to stir the dough just until it comes together. Turn the dough out onto a floured board and bring it together into a ball.
4. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough out about 1/4 inch thick. Cut out rounds of dough with a 2-inch biscuit or cookie cutter or use the rim of a glass and place the rounds on top of the apples in the pan, leaving about 1/4 inch space between the rounds. Gather together the scraps, re-roll out the dough and cut out more rounds until all the dough is used up.
5. Bake the cobbler in the center of the oven for about 30 minutes, until the biscuits are golden brown and the apple mixture is all bubbly. Let sit for about 10 minutes before serving (if you can wait that long!) and top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or some sweetened whipped if you like.

Lovers and Ten of Cups tarot card combinations
Lovers & Ten of Cups
Cards combination description
High arcan
and low arcan
Ten of Cups
combination - potential for commitment, marriage etc. Popular marriage combinations include Lovers with
Card 1 - Lovers
In the Lovers card, the man and the woman in the image are being protected and blessed by an angel above. The couple seems secure and happy in their home, which appears to be the Garden of Eden. The fruit tree with the snake behind the woman is a reference to that story, which tells of humanity's fall into temptation and into the realm of flesh and sensuality. The angel depicted here is Raphael, the angel of air - who is of the same element of the zodiac sign that governs this card: Gemini. Air is associated with mental activity, and communication in particular, which is the foundation for healthy relationships. His blessing seems to give this card a sense of balance and harmony, the symbolization of union in a grand and cosmic sense between two opposing forces.
Similar or supporting cards:
Relationship cards are relevant, also when in combination with marriage/commitment cards (see full explanation under The Hierophant) Two of Cups (close loving union).
Opposing or contradictory cards:
The Hermit usually signifies a sense of aloneness. For some the Nine of Pentacles also indicates this, although it can represent financial independence or an independent person, rather than being alone.
Lovers combinations
For a love triangle I'd normally look for secrecy cards in close proximity, plus the addition of a King or Queen Court card (outside the couple in question) may also point to third party involvement, although it can sometimes be outside interference, not always an actual affair etc. The Lovers is an easy card to apply to combinations; try using "love relationship" in application to cards before or after, for instance: Ace of Cups to Lovers would show the start of a new relationship, for a married couple it may show a new beginning that brings happiness to the relationship. As you would expect, lots of Cups combinations…
Full card's description
Card 2 - Ten of Cups
On the Ten of Cups, there is a couple holding each other while facing a beautiful house and a green garden. Beside them, there are two children playing joyously. The couple is seen holding each other in a loving and romantic embrace, while the children are freely playing. The couple seems to be in a stable relationship, while also blessed with the abundance of a comfortable home and beautiful children. The green land signifies fertility, and the river shows how freely the feelings of the couple are flowing, meaning that their relationship is quite peaceful. Above in the sky, there are ten cups, shaped in an arc, which are meant to symbolize blessings from heaven. The rainbow behind them shows the end of hard times and sorrows, and a new happy life where each and every one of the family will enjoy. The Ten of Cups card depicts 'having it all .
Similar or supporting cards:
other marriage cards would strengthen that association (see below), Ten of Pentacles (home and family) The Hierophant can also suggest the traditional family unit, Temperance (emotional harmony and balance).
Opposing or contradictory cards:
Three of Swords (family upheavals) Four of Cups (dissatisfied) Five of Cups (sadness) Five of Wands (lack of harmony)
Ten of Cups combinations
Numerous combinations are possible with regard to serious relationships and marriage so only a few are given below. Some people find it confusing if the Ten of Cups appears in an area they're not expecting, such as the work area in the Life Spread, but it normally means there will be a connection between the two in some way, or when different areas of life are impacting one another.

We had quite the full weekend.....We started out with the Stadium of Fire.
We saw the Jets fly over.
Brooklyn wore some ear muffs almost the entire show because it was so loud. Good thing we brought them :)
Oh how she loves her "Tretra" a.k.a. Trevor!!
The performers at this years show were David Archuleta and...
Brad Paisley. He put on an amazing show!! This was the first time I had ever seen him in concert.
The little B fell asleep during the last part of the fireworks. The poor girl was so tired by the end.
We stayed up at Stein Erickson for the weekend, as is our tradition every year with Brian's family, and also spent some time on the rides in Park City. We went on the alpine slide and Brooklyn even got to ride!!
She loved the carousel! This little girl is fearless. She will ride on any ride even if she is all by herself.
Brooklyn and Baylor did a little mini golf while the rest of us went on the coaster and zip line.
We also spent some time by the pool. Look at our little beach babe sporting her tankini.
These two love to play with one another :)
I always look forward to the annual Stein BBQ. It is always so delicious and this year was no exception. My favorite part was the tomato bar!
This silly girl wanted her picture taken and will say "cheese" to the camera. So Papa got this cute picture of her. When she looked at the camera to see herself she said "oh cute Brooklyn," like she says about anyone she sees in the camera.
With Dada and Papa
She loves her Grammy and Papa.
Monday we spent the day at Lagoon, so we got to ride on puff the magic dragon.
The little miss went on the octopus with grandma
and Bulgy the whale a few times.
This was by far her favorite ride....the boats. She was actually a little short to go on the ride but they let her on anyway. She had no problem going on all by herself. She ended up going on it 3 times!!

Expanding SchoolNet and the Community Access Program
The Challenge
Canadians need to make the best use of the opportunities created by
information technology and networks.
The Action
The budget will provide an additional $205 million over three years to
expand and extend SchoolNet and the Community Access Program.
Through these programs, the federal government will work with
provinces and the private sector to put computers in more classrooms
and to create 5,000 Internet access sites in urban neighbourhoods, in
addition to the 5,000 sites already being put in place in rural
These funds will also establish Voluntary Sector Network Supports -- a
program to enhance the capacity of voluntary organizations -- by
providing access to computer equipment, the Internet, new information
technologies, network supports and training.
The government will provide $55 million this year to the Canadian
Network for the Advancement of Research, Industry and Education
(CANARIE) to support the development of high speed networks.
Who Benefits?
Canadian children will have greater access to the learning
opportunities provided by todays information technology.
Through 10,000 network access sites, Canadians will have new
opportunities for lifelong learning.
What the Strategy Means to Canadians
The Canadian Opportunities Strategy provides the tools that will help
Canadians acquire the knowledge and skills that will prepare them for
jobs and that will deliver a higher standard of living in the 21st
For children, it means bringing them in touch with the information
age through SchoolNet.
For post-secondary students, particularly those from low- and
middle-income families, it means access and opportunity through
scholarships, study grants and tax relief.
For graduate students and researchers, it means increased support
through the granting councils.
For individuals coping with student loan debt, it means tax relief on
interest payments and additional loan relief for those in financial
For youth facing difficulty in finding a job, it means work
experience, supported by wage subsidies and services, as well as an
EI premium holiday to employers to hire more young Canadians.
For adults seeking to renew their labour market skills -- whether
through university, community colleges or vocational and technical
institutes -- it means the opportunity to draw on their RRSPs through
tax-free withdrawals, and to benefit from tax relief for part-time
For parents and grandparents, it means a Canada Education Savings
Grant that will make RESPs the best way to save for a child's
future education.
For communities and schools across Canada, it means connecting them to
the knowledge society by expanding access to the Internet.
Acting on Shared Goals
The National Roundtable on Student Financial Assistance, whose
members represent students, universities and colleges as well as
faculty and student financial aid administrators, made a number of
recommendations to the government in November, 1997.
The Canadian Opportunities Strategy addresses almost all these
recommendations. The following chart compares the recommendations of
the National Roundtable with the Canadian Opportunities Strategy.

Association of Canadian Community Colleges
Canadian Alliance of Student Associations
Canadian Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators
Canadian Association of University Teachers
Canadian Federation of Students

National Roundtable on Student Financial Assistance The Canadian
Opportunities Strategy
Recommendation: Introduce a system of grants for high need students
or focus the Millennium Fund on needs of low- and moderate-income
students. Canada Millennium Scholarships for over 100,000 low- and
middle-income Canadians averaging $3,000 a year -- see page 20.
Recommendation: Implement special grants for needy students with
dependants. Canada Study Grants of up to $3,000 a year for needy
students with children or other dependants -- see page 22.
Recommendation: Allow people with student loans the option of
suspending principal payments, provide some borrowers with reformed
and graduated interest relief during a 3- to 5-year transition
Improvements to the Canada Student Loans Program that raise the basic
thresholds for interest relief and provide graduated interest relief
further up the income scale, supporting 100,000 additional
individuals -- see page 26.
Recommendation: Provide for borrowers who demonstrate significant
difficulties in repaying their debt after the transition period with
some form of debt reduction, taking into account both the
individuals ability to pay and the level of debt. For graduates
in serious financial difficulty, the loan amortization period is
extended in order to lower monthly payments and, if required, debt is
reduced based on the persons income and debt load -- see page
Recommendation: Make student loan payments tax deductible or convert
interest paid into a tax credit. Tax relief for interest on student
loans -- see page 26.
Recommendation: Allow individuals to withdraw RRSP funds without a
tax penalty for their own education. Tax-free withdrawals from RRSPs
for lifelong learning -- see page 30.
Recommendation: Make contributions to RESPs tax deductible. A new
Canada Education Savings Grant of 20 per cent on the first $2,000 of
annual contributions to an RESP -- see page 34.
Recommendation: Introduce a work-study program to allow students to
earn while they learn. Increases assistance for advanced research and
graduate students through increased funding for the three granting
councils -- see page 23.
Extends education tax credit and child care expense deduction to
part-time students -- see pages 31, 32.
Supports youth employment by more than doubling funding for youth at
risk and by providing employers with an EI premium holiday for
additional young Canadians hired in 1999 and 2000 -- see pages 39,
Increases funding for SchoolNet, Community Access Program and CANARIE
to bring information technology into more schools and communities --

For years, the University Baptist Church (UBC) in Austin, Texas,
has welcomed gays and lesbians into its fold. Four years ago they even
ordained an openly homosexual deacon. Although University Baptist's
activities ran counter to traditional Baptist teachings, the Baptist
General Convention of Texas (BGCT) allowed it to go on. At least
until the convention saw University Baptist's web page. Yesterday,
the executive committee of the General Convention voted to kick
University Baptist out.

The Blind Foundation urgently needs more volunteers for the 2017 Blind Week street collection in October.
With at least three New Zealanders a day referred to the Blind Foundation for support with blindness or sight loss, the annual appeal is more important than ever, says the Foundation's Chief Executive Sandra Budd.
This year's appeal is on Friday and Saturday, 6 and 7 October and volunteers can sign up at blindweek.org.nz
"Right now we are only able to reach a third of the people who need our help but, with more support from all Kiwis, we can do so much more, particularly for our young people."
The 20-plus people a week referred to the Blind Foundation includes at least one child affected by loss of sight.
Budd says: "The Blind Foundation is here for all Kiwis affected by blindness or sight loss, but it's only possible thanks to the generous support from the New Zealand public.
"Losing your sight can turn your life upside down. Our volunteers help us raise much-needed funds to provide New Zealanders who are blind or have low vision with the practical and emotional support they need to face their future with confidence."
With Kiwis' support this Blind Week, the Blind Foundation can reach more people who are blind or have low vision and provide life-changing support. The Blind Foundation supports people to live independently, get around safely, use technology, continue to read and communicate, be socially active and stay in work.
Notes to Editors about Blind Foundation:
The Blind Foundation is New Zealand's main provider of practical and emotional support for the thousands of Kiwis who are affected by blindness and sight loss, enabling them to face their future with confidence.
Every day an average of three New Zealanders register with the Blind Foundation for support with blindness or sight loss.
It provides practical support in living independently, help with technology, ways to continue reading, and advice on staying in or looking for work.
The Blind Foundation's vital work helping people with blindness and sight loss is possible thanks to the generous support of the public.
