WASHINGTON — Promoting religious freedom is the only way to counter violent religious extremism, but the U.S. is focused more on military action against terrorist groups, the president of Religious Freedom Institute said at a congressional hearing on Wednesday.
The U.S. government's lack of commitment to help protect these rights is worsening the global trend of extremism, Religious Freedom Institute President Thomas F. Farr added as rights for the free exercise of religions are diminishing globally.
"This is a U.S. national security problem," said Farr. Protecting the rights of non-Muslim minorities and encouraging anti-extremist Muslim voices to advocate for a nonviolent interpretation of Islam will create stability in conflicted Islamic countries, he said.
"We will prevail against Islamist extremism only when we expand our national security strategy to include the advancement of religious freedom," he said. "More religious freedom abroad can help prevent that spread of terrorism and protect Americans here at home."
Farr said that the U.S. counterterrorism policy focuses almost exclusively on the use of military force.
John Lenczowski, president of the Institute of World Politics, agreed, and added that the U.S. does not have the capabilities needed to successfully promote religious freedom. He suggested creating a government agency to fill this need.
"The U.S. government is intellectually, culturally and organizationally unprepared to combat both elements of the radical iihadist threat and fight a true war of ideas," Lenczowski told the House Subcommittee on Foreign Affairs. "What must be done is to create a new U.S. public diplomacy agency that will become a new bureaucratic empire within the State Department."
Lenczowski said such an agency would take over the functions of the now-defunct U.S. Information Agency, which had the capability to conduct ideological warfare until it was eliminated in 1999. The new agency would include many offices, including an office to counter jihadist propaganda and an office to provide counterintelligence protection of U.S. diplomacy programs.
The 1998 International Religious Freedom Act allows sanctions against countries that persecute some religions, but they are rarely imposed.
Last year, Congress passed a bill which President Obama signed into law that provided specific tools for the State Department to implement religious freedom into U.S. diplomacy. Among other provisions, it allows the president to designate "violent non-state actors," strengthen investigations into religious persecutions and requires religious freedom training for all foreign service officers.

I love cooking low-carb and for the most part as a trained chef I don't have many issues transforming a high carb recipe into something with many less carbs. The two biggest challenges I have had are bread and chocolate brownies. I had an absolute killer recipe for regular brownies before going low carb, they were fudgy, buttery, soft with a crunchy top, milky and creamy and arguably the best brownies I've ever had.
When attempting to develop a low carb brownie, I ran into immediate issues, mainly because sugar is the number one ingredient in a brownie. Although we all know how bad sugar is for us and I certainly avoid it at all costs, there is no denying that it is a wonderful ingredient. The thing about sugar is it makes recipes sticky, fudgey, moist and it is the gold standard when it comes to making successful sweets. Remove the sugar from a recipe, where the sugar is the main ingredient and it can be difficult, if not impossible to recreate something of the same standard.
Even using Sola sweetener, which I developed, I was still having trouble getting to a gold standard recipe that would truly satisfy my taste buds and have the mouthfeel and texture of a regular brownie. I have been working on creating a brownie recipe worthy of posting and signing off on for over 2 years and after much testing and an extra push of having to demo a low-carb brownie recipe on live TV, I finally came up with the perfect recipe. I would argue that these low-carb brownies are the best in the world, yes, they are that good! They are soft and decadent, fudgey and moist, chocolatey, creamy, all the things you need from a brownie.
So give these brownies a go and be amazed by the results, I use sola sweetener which is going to give you the best results, see my sweetener guide here, if you can't get hold of Sola sweetener for other sweetening options.
Makes: 16 servings
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cooking Time: 35 minutes
wet mixture
3 free-range eggs
6 free range egg yolks
¾ cup plus 2 tablespoons (165 g) Sola sweetener
6 tablespoons cultured buttermilk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Melted chocolate mixture
13 ounces (370 g) no added sugar chocolate, chopped (lily's premium baking chocolate is a good option and is widely available)
2 sticks (230 g) unsalted butter
Dry mixture
1 cup (120 g) finely ground almond flour
1/4 cup (50 g) dried, powdered milk
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon xanthan gum (this helps bind the brownie together, you can substitute with 2 tablespoons of white flour if you are not worried about adding a few carbs)
¼ cup (25 g) finely chopped pecans (or walnuts)
1. Pre-heat the oven to 325F/165c
2. Place the chopped chocolate and butter in a bowl resting over a pan of lightly simmering water, stir occasionally until thoroughly melted.
3. Place the whole eggs, egg yolks, Sola sweetener, cultured buttermilk and vanilla extract into a mixing bowl and whisk until well combined.
4. In a separate bowl, sift together the almond flour, baking powder, xanthan gum and salt, mix well until combined.
5. Once the chocolate and butter mixture is fully melted, whisk until smooth and glossy and then pour into the whisked egg mixture, then add the almond flour mixture. Mix thoroughly until all the ingredients are combined and the brownie batter is smooth.
6. Pour the mixture into a 9x9 inch square baking pan lined with baking parchment and sprinkle over the chopped pecans or walnuts and bake for 35 minutes (30 minutes if using a fan assisted oven) until set, to test for this, shake the pan, if the brownie batter wobbles, it won't be done so give it few more minutes and check again. Once cooked, remove from the oven, and cool on a wire rack, before removing the brownie from the pan and cutting into 16 individual servings.
Chef Tip
Place the cooked brownie into the fridge for 2 to 3 hours to thoroughly chill before portioning, this will allow you to cut perfect servings with ease. Simply leave the brownies out at room temperature to soften.

Insurance Paperwork
Dr Qureshi and Dr Sharma are our two Doctors who accept insurance paperwork.
Insurance paperwork is not covered by Medicare.
There will be a fee involved for the completion of insurance paperwork. The fee amount is dependent on how in depth the paperwork is.
Occasionally the insurance company will pay the fee. We expect the fee to be paid up front before any paperwork is sent to any organisation.
Insurance companies generally contact GPs for two types of information. First and foremost to assist in the assessment of a client or potential client's risk profile. In these cases, most requests deal with facts – that is, what is the health status of the client before entering into the insurance contract? In some cases, the GP will be asked to provide an opinion on fitness for a task or activity. Second, insurance companies will contact GPs for verification of events, including injuries, death or hospitalisation. In this second case, the information desired is invariably limited to documentation of the facts.
Please let reception staff know in advance that you are seeing the Doctor in relation to insurance paperwork. This includes total disability claims too.


text: Know Your Role: Restaurant Franchises and State Licensing Requirements Purchasing a franchise can be a profitable opportunity for many entrepreneurs, as franchise systems offer a valuable support system that can help protect your investment. The franchise system ("franchisor") will generally provide substantial development, training, marketing, and management assistance. However, restaurants in Florida must hold the appropriate state food service and alcoholic beverage licensees in order to operate, and that process is likely to be the responsibility of the franchise purchaser ("franchisee"). The respective obligations of the franchisee and franchisor are laid out in the franchise agreement and franchise disclosure document, and different franchise systems handle the important state licensing piece differently. If you are opening a restaurant in Florida, you will need to obtain a food service license from the Division of Hotels and Restaurants prior to opening. There is an inspection process, and, depending on the site that you have chosen, you may be required to submit your site plan for state review. If you are serving alcohol, you will need to qualify for one of the beverage licenses issued by the Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco. Understanding the licensing process is important, especially if you are planning to open within a tight time frame.For context, the franchisor is only obligated to provide the support and services outlined in the signed franchise agreement. The franchise agreement is a pivotal component of the franchising process, and will govern your relationship with the franchise system moving forward. It is critical that you carefully review the agreement prior to signing, and many franchisees engage an attorney to provide assistance during this phase. I strongly advise clients to conduct substantial due diligence prior to making a decision. Potential franchisees should closely review the documents and meet with current franchisees to discuss the realities of owning a franchise, including the actual level of support and competence of the franchisor. Many franchise or hospitality lawyers, including this one, are able to help you through the pre-purchase process.Franchisors have an interest in their franchise locations opening on schedule, and may offer some level of licensing assistance. However, it is common for all licensing and permitting activities to be the responsibility of the franchisee, with some agreements establishing that a lack of successful licensure is a material breach of the contract. The franchise agreement may also establish many requirements that are directly or tangentially related to state licensing, including setting minimum insurance requirements, indemnifying the franchisor from alcohol-related claims, requiring safe service training, etc. In order to further illustrate the issue, I retrieved and reviewed a publicly-available franchise disclosure document from Broadway Bar & Pizza. Broadway is a Minnesota-based franchise that is competing in the hot fast-casual pizza space, and its disclosure document is crystal clear on licensing and permitting matters. On page two, it states that the franchisee must obtain all of the applicable health permits, inspections, and/or approvals required by municipal, county, or state health departments. Additionally, the document empowers Broadway to terminate the franchise agreement if the franchisee fails to apply for and obtain licenses to serve food and alcohol within a certain time period. In the event of a termination, the franchise will retain $5,000 of your initial franchise fee, or its reasonable administrative and out-of-pocket expenses, whichever is greater. Being unprepared will cost you time and money, under this agreement and many others.Of course, it would also be inadvisable for a franchisee to spend funds on something that the franchise system was obligated to provide. I am aware of franchise systems that make their licensing and permitting specialists available to their franchisees as a part of the deal. Again, a thorough review of the disclosure document and franchise agreement is required.The bottom line is that while potential franchisees have a myriad of factors to consider when purchasing a franchise, state licensing requirements must also be a part of the analysis.

I kept seeing an image of a face when i glanced at the peak. Then i put my finger on it... the great gatsby eyes/face... go google it and see if you can see it:)

Rest for the Soul/
I do not think this "busy thing" is unique to pastors. I think this is a problem we all face in culture today, especially with the use of all the wonderful technology, which is a blessing AND a curse. 24 hour connectivity is great for those who need to get a hold of you, but isn't good for the soul.
Take (1) day of rest, a sabbath - Exodus 20:8–11
It's important to have (1) day you cease from your work. Do what you love to do. On that day do only what refreshes you, builds you up, encourages you and makes you smile. Make sure to surround yourself with people who make you laugh, smile and feel good about life.
I must warn you, guard this day with your life! And invite close friends and family to hold you accountable to it. People will try to steal it from you, not intentionally of course, but it will happen. You are often the only one who can stand guard over your life, do it with all diligence! Your Soul will be glad!
I read an amazing book that touches on this topic even more, called The Top Five Regrets of the Dying, and I did a review here!

Native Icon/biography; The art of Priscilla Anacakuyani & Daniel de Jesús
Opening Reception April 6, 2018 6pm - 9pm
Higher Grounds Café
631 N 3rd St, Philadelphia, PA 19123
Native Icon/Biography is an exhibition of works by artists Priscilla Anakacuyani Bell and Daniel de Jesús. Both
artists are of Puerto Rican Heritage and from the City of Brotherly Love, Philadelphia PA. Anakacuyani and de Jesús both work with the figure as icon or symbol that often explores identity that stems from their Latinx Heritage.
Anakacuyani's work dives into the world of Taino traditions. She often tries to visually personify the connection she has with her Taíno Heritage and through symbolism and mysticism of the Taino peoples who inhabited the Caribbean. She visually communicates an understanding of ancient rituals and a devotion to ancestors within the genre of portraiture.
de Jesús' work explores religious iconography that is inspired by Puerto Rico's colonial era. Such iconography that inspires de Jesús' work comes from Puerto Rico's Espada workshop, which produced small brightly colored religious statuary (Santos). The art of Puerto Rican painter José Campeche and his Rococo styled religious paintings with fine handwork and brightly colored Madonna's has also provided much inspiration for the artist's style and subject.
Both artists are also acrylic painters, masters in their own right in a medium still quite modern in the world of paints. Acrylic as a paint medium has its roots in the mural art of Latin America, but here, it is used in a jewel-like fashion, utilizing an application more like an oil painter and taking advantage of the medium's ability to build light and expose the underpainting to full effect.

It is another beautiful fall morning in Aspen, Colorado where the clear blue skies and crisp fresh air surround the mountains that line and guard this valley. The locals are hoping for more snow, so they can finally get their skis out of storage. And business owners have their eyes on the sky in preparation for the millions of tourists who will pack Colorado's Sawatch Range to enjoy the area's slopes, shops, restaurants and resorts.
On this particular day, downtown Aspen is bustling with activity; you can hear the sound of a Cat® 336 excavator hard at work. There's a new municipal building going up on Main Street and other renovations to neighboring facilities. In the middle of it all, Shay Stutsman, Stutsman-Gerbaz Earthmoving vice president, is directing his excavation crew, chatting with the mayor, and exchanging pleasantries with just about everyone who walks by the site.

President Donald Trump said the US would "probably not" strike a trade deal with Britain if Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit plan went ahead as planned. "The idea that we would park our rights and privileges and freedoms because it may cause offence to a USA president, I think people in London and the United Kingdom would find objectionable as indeed would Americans", he said.
Before heading for Scotland, the president and Queen Elizabeth II became acquainted over tea at Windsor Castle.
Tens of thousands of protesters lined the streets of London, Manchester, Glasgow and Bristol to protest the visit of the American president but it is thought there will be more as he jets north.
Activists kicked off the demonstrations on Friday by floating a six-metre-high (20-ft) blimp outside parliament depicting the USA president as a snarling orange baby. With the U.K.'s departure from the European Union set to take place in eight months, the nation's forwarding community is giving the plan mixed reviews. The president and the first lady will depart on Sunday. It was during that trip to Washington that she invited him to the UK.
Their meeting lasted almost an hour and was the final engagement in Mr Trump's two-day working visit to the UK.
Trump, a long-time supporter of Brexit, told The Sun he had advised May on her strategy to leave the European Union but was ignored.
"I would much rather have her as my friend than my enemy, that I can tell you", he told reporters during a news conference with Ms. "We've got some guys that really, really love golf, and they're really invested in our programs", Dodson quoted Eric Trump as saying, according to Fortune. "I actually told Theresa May how to do it but she didn't agree, she didn't listen to me ..."
Syrian army hoists national flag in Dara'a city
Anti-Assad rebels still control a chunk of the north-west, and the north-east and a large chunk of the east are controlled by Kurdish-led militia.
Earlier, Mr Trump said he and Mrs May had spoken for an hour-and-a-half at the black-tie dinner at Blenheim Palace, which he attended with his wife Melania.
Trump said the interview published by the Sun omitted his praise of May, and that his staff had taped the interview: "It's called fake news and we solve a lot of problems with the good old recording instrument".
"It is terrible to hear the inflammatory language that he uses and I am embarrassed that (Prime Minister) Theresa May has done so much to welcome him".
Meanwhile, Mrs Trump played bowls with the PM's husband, Philip May, at the Royal Hospital Chelsea in London. She met Chelsea Pensioners and local children.
But over on social media, it's also triggered a new meme, which involves a certain current British prime minister - who has been pictured looking positively smitten with her new guest.
Speaking to the Sun, Trump revealed that he'd been warned about the Trump baby blimp that would be flying above Parliament Square, saying: "I guess when they put out blimps to make me feel unwelcome, no reason for me to go to London".
Prime Minister May said they had discussed plans for an "ambitious" trade agreement.

The Fancy Pants Roll Ups have the same material as the Truly Scrumptious Dress on the roll ups and the waist band. This material is picked up in items like the Flip Flop T-shirt so good for a bit of mixing and matching. The t-shirt material lining at the bottom and round the waist make these very comfy for my daughter to wear and she likes the mix and match element with the t-shirt. The detailing of the heart pockets is really nice and helps girly girls get over the fact they are not pink! They are generously sized and the waist band is very elastic but on skinny minnies they may struggle to stay up properly as they are not adjustable.

The Great Atheist Thinkers
No longer are philosophers and scientists the primary spokespersons for atheism. Instead of atheist thinkers emerging and pushing thinking forward, most modern atheists are captivated by comedians. That's right, the best atheism has to offer is not the arguments of renowned philosophers or historians instead it is memes (ironic since Dawkins first coined the term) and comedy pseudo-apologists. Only ONCE has an atheist ever recommended Bertrand Russell to me and it was worth my time 100 fold the many many comedic clips and memes that have been toted as great wisdom.
Now this is not to say atheism is lacking in its thinkers or even that it is non-thinking. As a matter of fact psychologists have found a strong correlation between humor and intelligence. But what exactly does this mean? Humor and intelligence are intricately linked. It does not mean that comedians are right, as we know humor often has nothing to do with reality. Also truth has to correlate to reality or it is not truth. Atheists in general(and i'm referring to outspoken public figures) present atheism as intellectually superior to religion and as a big step forward for humanity. Then way is humor at the forefront over real arguments?
What is going on?
Whose views are you more familiar with? Michael Shermer or Ricky Gervais? Bart Ehrman or Bill Maher? Friedrich Nietzsche or George Carlin? If you actually believe atheism is true you should be answering the former in all these questions. Now of course none of this is to say that humor can't be accurate and true. But the interesting thing is that most of our understanding of humor indicates that its an "emotional regulator" of sorts. It literally helps to regulate emotions in a number of beneficial ways. And those with better emotional regulation are often those with a better social intelligence. This is a far cry from Plato's take on the subject though, "No composer of comedy, iambic or lyric verse shall be permitted to hold any citizen up to laughter, by word or gesture, with passion or otherwise".
Now, I personally see philosophical depth in comedy. Comedy can often be a means of softly or bluntly pointing at truth as well. And this is well and good. Given my own affinity for sarcasm I am certainly glad that most don't write of comedy in the same way Plato did. But with all that said I think there is some subtle and thought provoking issues underlying this trend that people should consider before taking any argument guised in humor to seriously.
1. Humor as a Shield
How often is humor being used as a shield to deflect critical thinking or to hide behind for some other reason? This goes back to our look at humor as an emotional regulator. If humor is making us feel better or encouraged in a particular belief then perhaps we should consider why. Are we influenced because it makes light of a heavy issue? In many cases I often find myself saying yes to this. I have a very dark sense of humor and this helps me to cope with much of the horror I see in the world. Does this negate my take on why evil exists? Absolutely not. But I have to be careful that I don't take humor as my only approach and actually take time to seriously consider why the world is the way it is. When humor is the primary or only response to issues like this it can easily become a shield to deflect honest skepticism and doubt of various worldviews and perspectives. Does the humor of your favorite comedian work because it deflects you from considering the validity of another viewpoint? Do you resort to humor or cynical comparisons when challenged? If we are honest I think we all do at times. But to hinge on these approaches continuously can lead to a dangerous suppression of seeking truth (see also Signs of Fearing the Truth).
2. Humor as a Weapon
Humor serves another purpose, as a weapon to challenge the status quo. This I find as far more beneficial in many ways as I think we should all be open to challenges in our views. Doubt is not a bad thing if we are truly seeking truth from the reality in which we live. However, with that said we again see pitfalls when the humor is used to wield some invalid point. When this happens we may found ourselves engrained with invalid information that doesn't actually serve us any true intellectual benefit. For example, the ministry of Answer in Genesis uses cartoons throughout their material in a way that brings in mockery of alternative view points. This would be fine but they frequently mischaracterize other views and rarely direct towards the actual issues at had vs. taking a quick jab at a strawman. They then fill their social media and material with cartoons rather than allowing their material and "evidence" to stand for its self. This is especially disturbing in their children materials. There are showing children how to take jabs at a strawman version of evolution. Rather then focusing on the critical thinking it actually take to investigate the evidences. But enough on that…for more on AiG see my prior article on the subject (Questionable:Answers in Genesis).
Now, AiG only serves as one example on the Christian side where I see this. Lets take a look on the other side of the fence at Bill Maher's "Religulous". This documentary was actually the start of this article as I considered going through and doing a point by point refutation. However, after re-watching for the 3rd time I realized that the point of this comedy was to sew doubt by showing a strawman of Christianity(which 75% of the movie focuses on). The goal was never to create an actual well thought out refutation of Christian beliefs the goal was using comedy as the weapon in hand. I'm all for the challenge but Religulous was filled to the brim with false information and caricatures that were poor representations of the beliefs they were actually attacking. The infographic of the horus and mithra similarities to Jesus alone created a pop-atheism argument that was based almost entirely on false information. This does not help to further a genuine truth seeker.
3. Humor as an Escape
This is similar to the use of humor as a shield but with a significant difference. Instead of using humor to deflect argument or to shield your own emotions humor can literally be used as an escape from evidence all together. Richard Dawkins often uses humor in this way when he compares various Gods and that belief in them is all equally mythological. His quips and humor as meant to shut down and give him an out from honest inquiry. You see the same thing play out any at many atheist interviews, debates, and the like. For example, last October at the Southern Evangelical Seminary apologetic conference Dan Barker made little to no effort to refute Dr. Thomas Howe's rendering of Aristotle's prime moved argument and instead spent his time in the debate making an appeal to absurdism. Humor can be great when properly wielded in conversation or even in argumentation. But to use it as an escape from seriously considering a view point is just lazy and begs the question, "why are you hiding?"
I See Comedy in your Future
All these points do not refute any individual and they certainly don't refute comedy as a valid means for furthering an argument. But what I hope they do is draw your attention to how humor and comedy may be influencing your worldviews and emotions. There is no one size fits all prescription for balancing humor in your life which is really the whole point of this article. We all need humor in various forms but how are we using and perceiving it? Is it shielding our emotions from having to face the truth of reality? Is it a weapon for us to use as a battering ram to other's views without consideration of the facts? Or maybe it is our total escape pod from actually having to consider evidence at all. And those my friends are challenging punch lines you have to ask yourself.

While leaving a party in Beverly Hills on Saturday with boyfriend Aaron Rodgers, actress Olivia Munn sparked engagement rumors when photographers snapped her with a flashy engagement-like ring on her left hand. Reps for both Munn and the Green Bay Packers quarterback have not responded to requests for comment, but fans have already begun speculating whether or not the couple has become engaged after nearly three years of dating.
Olivia Munn had a spirit of gratefulness after her boyfriend, Aaron Rodgers, and the Green Bay Packers faced an upsetting loss on Sunday. The Atlanta Falcons beat the Packers, 44-21, taking Rodgers' team out of the running to play in this year's Super Bowl. After their big loss, Munn posted a message to Instagram, thanking Packers fans. EXCLUSIVE: Jordan Rodgers Talks 'Sensitive' Family Matters -- 'I Shared Everything I Could' With JoJo Fletcher on The Bachelorette "So proud of this team.
Refresh your knowledge of the stars in 'Social Media Update'.
In a recent interview, actress Olivia Munn revealed that she turned down a lead role as Vanessa, in the super successful "Deadpool" to play Psylocke in the upcoming X-men: Apocalypse. Munn said she turned down the part because she didn't want to play 'the girlfriend character'. Instead opting for Psylocke, a role that has her playing a superhero and fighting like one too. Munn said; "I thought Psylocke was always one of the most lethal characters, and I said, 'Yes, as long as you're not using her to be the eye candy. She has really powerful abilities." X-Men Apocalypse comes out May 27th.
Before taking on the role of Psylocke in X-Men: Apocalypse, actress Olivia Munn had one question. Is there a fight scene? That same question is at the root of why she turned down a role in another FOX and Marvel property, that being the massively successful Deadpool. "Munn says she didn't want to be the girlfriend. "I said, 'Is there a fight scene?' " Munn says of her early meetings with the X-Men: Apocalypse people. Yet Munn couldn't shake the feeling that there might be too much talking and not enough action.

Beginning this week, Abbott Systems will charge customers $29 for its AbbottChat instant messenger software. It also will charge companies and large groups $495 for its chat server. In return, the software comes without advertisements. For the past year, AbbottChat's primary revenue source came from advertising.
The move comes as technology and Net heavyweights such as Microsoft, America Online, and Yahoo are battling for users in the instant message arena. The technology allows users to communicate with each other via text messages that are delivered in real time.
America Online's AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) popularized the software. AIM users communicate in real time with a list of contacts known as "Buddies." AOL has 45 million names on its Buddy List. It also owns instant message service ICQ, which has 40 million registered users.
The instant messaging battle last month became more of a war when Microsoft released its MSN Messenger service. Microsoft's software allowed its users to communicate with AIM "buddies." AOL responded by blocking access to its members; it also accused Microsoft of hacking into its servers to offer communication with AIM users.
Observers say instant messaging has taken off largely because it's free; it remains to be seen whether users will pay for it simply to be rid of advertising. By contrast, free Internet access services that are paid for with advertising--a business model that failed a few years ago--is making a comeback. AltaVista recently began offering a free Internet access service, for example.
Soon after launching AbbottChat, Abbott Systems discovered that giving the software away for free was more difficult than the company expected. It turned out that selling advertising space on the software became a business of slim margins and steadily decreasing returns.
"The cost of advertising is dropping dramatically, and potential advertisers are paying less and less," said Abbott. "You're caught between a rock and a hard place."

Do you end up with lot of food in fridge, freezer, pantry ?End of year is a good way to use it, donate it or throw away. Sometimes it's hard to throw away things but you just got to do it. No point keeping piles of food that you not gonna eat. If it's edible , start eating one a day. Here's what I have been doing:
- First from picture, had bought frozen chiku 2 years back which I never even opened. Went to trash.
- From freezer, either am cooking with frozen vegetables or using up food saved or throw it away. No more new buying right now .Only fresh vegetables I buy.
- Fridge also, there are condiments that don't get used. Found 3 soya sauce bottle .:(
- Pantry… let's not even go there. But am working on it. All pasta, snacks, cookies.
- Cleaning doesn't mean you eat rotten , left overs . But plan it in a way so food gets used or expired , rotten needs to be thrown away.
- Also some of the food you can decompose so that goes into vegetable patch for earth warms.
- Am even cleaning closet.
- Things are to be used , not hoard it. I like to give away things if someone can use it instead of it sitting in my home collecting dust just because I can't let it go.
- And as we clean, we realize we need to buy less , just what we need.
- Finally I bought myself a wonderful gift which is gonna be one hell of an experience.
- Enjoy cleaning !

What do you do while you are with my pets?
As every pet is unique, with individualized needs and their own idea of just what is fun, Petcetera's time with all pets is highly customized to meet the pet's needs while adhering to the client's preferences.
As a general rule, we recommend that high energy pets spend a majority of our time together burning excess energy, whether playing with the dog outdoors, or allowing caged pets time outside of the cage. We offer a variety of services to cater to your pet's needs!
How will Petcetera handle a pet emergency?
Petcetera promises to enter any emergency in a calm and professional manner. All clients whose pet experiences an emergency will be notified immediately in order to obtain further instruction, unless the emergency is dire and warrants immediate veterinary care.
We collect pertinent information such as the client's veterinary contact and authorization for care during the Meet and Greet. Clients traveling outside of the country are asked to provide their veterinarian with payment info and care instruction should an emergency arise.
Does Petcetera charge per pet?
Petcetera does not charge for multiple pets.
However, we do take into consideration the amount of time needed to care for each pet, and may suggest that additional time be added to your sit in order to ensure that all of the pets in your zoo receive appropriate care.
What type of contact will I have while I'm away?
All clients are asked to choose their preferred method of contact while completing the initial paperwork. Most of our Pet Care Specialists prefer to send a short text message detailing their visit with your pet(s). Other ways of contact include email and phone. You can also follow us on Facebook and Twitter!
What medical conditions do you have experience with?
Many of the pets in Petcetera's care are elderly or special needs pets that suffer from a variety of ailments such as blindness, hip dysplasia, arthritis, loss of hearing, ulcers, and have had strokes. We've cared for both parrots and dogs with seizure disorders and have administered insulin injections to diabetic cats.
Petcetera will never charge for the administration of medication as we firmly believe that there is no reason to profit from a pet's illness or medical needs. Petcetera will gladly administer pills, topical treatments, eye liquids and gels, insulin injections & subcutaneous fluids.

At the start of the school year, the Independent Journalism Center (IJC), a SEENPM member organization, returned to schools with a new cycle of media lessons for pupils. The first such meeting took place on Wednesday, September 21, at the Center of Excellence in Constructions in Chisinau.
Journalist Viorica Zaharia, who moderated the event, began by explaining to the young people the notions of media education, propaganda and manipulation and showing them a video spot produced by the IJC, titled "Do you know what media you consume?" When pupils were asked what sources they seek information from, they named a number of publications, especially online-based, explaining their preference by the fact that such sources are more accessible and cover topics that are more relevant to their interests. As for political news, they recognized that they need more knowledge in order to understand which information is true and which is manipulation.
For a better understanding of the manipulation tools used by journalists, the expert suggested analyzing several news stories produced by different media outlets. By comparing sources, the pupils eventually managed to identify manipulation elements and recognize neutral stories. The principle is easy, according to media expert Viorica Zaharia: A professionally written news story must answer the questions "Who? What? When? Where? How? Why?" If this rule is not complied with, we are dealing with a manipulating text. As a rule, such texts contain author's opinions, personal views on the event they write about – things that are not allowed in news.
Another moment that journalist Viorica Zaharia pointed to the pupils is manipulation via images, which can also influence media consumers. "By using pictures that are not necessarily in chronological order with the text of the news, the intention is to send a distorted message and create a distorted impression that might even lead to defamation of some people," Viorica Zaharia underlined.
At the end of the lesson, pupils addressed questions to the moderator. They wanted to know why such phenomena in the media take place, who and why resorts to manipulation, why some authors of news disobey the journalists' code of ethics, etc.
We also wanted to hear the participants' opinions of this media lesson. One of them, Dumitru Perju, said that the main thing he learned is the structure of a news story, which he hadn't known much about. "I learned what a correct informative news story should look like, what mandatory questions it must answer in order to truthfully tell about facts. I believe it is an important criterion that I will follow when I read news or hear them on TV or radio."
Teacher Alina Raileanu finds such activities welcome, because "the young generation has the opportunity to learn how to choose correct information and why they shouldn't limit themselves to one source of information if they want to get a correct impression about what happens in reality."
The "Promoting Media Literacy and Professional Standards in the Media for an Informed Public" project is being implemented by the Independent Journalism Center (IJC) with the financial support of Soros-Foundation – Moldova/Media Program
The Independent Journalism Center (IJC) is the first media organization that provides aid to journalists and media outlets in Moldova, having the goal to contribute to strengthening free and viable press via projects that offer training in the area of journalism and public relations, media campaigns, advocacy, research and media education.

Miss New York was crowned Miss America Sunday night.
>> PHOTOS: Miss New York Nia Franklin crowned Miss America 2019
Nia Franklin beat a field of 51 contestants to win the 98th Miss America pageant, claiming the crown and a $50,000 scholarship.
This year marked the first without a swimsuit competition. It was replaced with onstage interviews.
Franklin praised the move in an interview after her win.
"These changes, I think, will be great for our organization," she said. "I've already seen so many young women reaching out to me personally as Miss New York asking how they can get involved because I think they feel more empowered that they don't have to do things such as walk in a swimsuit for a scholarship."

Motivation to Keep You Going - Inspirational Quotes - Wisdom
Today's episode is short & sweet because I know that at this time of year, things are crazy busy for everyone as we're right smack in the middle of the holiday season! Since I've received many requests to incorporate more Tidbit Thursday type content into Monday's episodes (well, Tuesday for today), I thought what better time than now when things can seem a bit overwhelming. Am I right? I highly recommend listening to this instead of reading the transcript in a relaxed position as you would during a meditation.
Full Transcript of Today's Episode:
PLEASE NOTE BEFORE READING: I highly recommend you listen into the podcast show instead of reading through this transcript as this is done through a digital means. There may be errors in words, spelling, grammar and transcribing accuracy as a whole that don't fully align with what was said during the podcast episode, so just keep that in mind. But, it's here for you just in case you'd prefer to read through.
Hello and welcome back to today's podcast show! Today I'm going to be taking it back to the old school tidbit Thursdays and I know I'm releasing this I believe on a Tuesday. My regular podcasts are every single Monday, but today's is going to be on a Tuesday and I'm not doing tidbit Thursdays anymore as I was before and I believe it was many podcasts ago where I kinda changed up the schedule, but I've had a lot of requests to incorporate the tidbit Thursday kind of podcasts into the Monday podcast every now and then. So today what I'm going to be doing is I'm going to be reading to you motivational quotes that I have stored in my google drive and these are quotes that I've screen-shotted from so many different places or taking pictures of during my travels over the course of many, many years and I'm just going to be scrolling through because there's literally hundreds and picking out random ones that I think will help you out and inspire you this week. So sit back, relax, and just listen to this as you would a more meditative experience. I hope you enjoy today's podcast.

Okay guys, I hope you enjoyed those quotes and I hope that they brighten up your day and just inspired or motivated you in some way, shape, or form. As always, if there is an author or someone who's quoted the quote that I stated, I would have said it. If I didn't say it was quoted by anyone, it remains anonymous as far as that I screen-shotted it or as to where I found it. So thank you so much again for tuning in. I hope that you enjoyed today's podcast and I'll talk to you soon.
Sending you BIG love today & always!
My whole heart, ♡

In 2017, investors added gold to their portfolios as incomes increased, uncertainty loomed, and gold's positive price momentum continued, according to World Gold Council.
As 2018 begins, the council explores four key market trends and their implications for gold:
1. Synchronised economic growth
2. Shrinking central bank balance sheets and rising rates
3. Frothy asset prices
4. Market transparency, efficiency, and access.
The council believes that these trends will support demand and maintain gold's relevance as a strategic asset.

ALBANY, N.Y. (CNS) — New York's bishops, led by Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan of New York, said they would oppose a portion of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's Women's Equality Act that preserves abortion rights.
The bill, introduced June 4, "would ease restrictions in state law on late-term abortion and runs the serious risk of broadly expanding abortion access at all stages of gestation," the bishops said in a June 4 statement.
"While the bill's proponents say it will simply 'codify' federal law, it is selective in its codification," they added, "Nowhere does it address the portions of federal laws that limit abortion, such as the ban on taxpayer funding, the ban on partial-birth abortion or protections for unborn victims of violence."
The bishops said, "We fully oppose this measure, and urge all our faithful people to do the same, vigorously and unapologetically."
The Women's Equality Act is a 10-point program unveiled by Cuomo, a Democrat and a Catholic.
Those points, according to the governor's website, are: achieving pay equity; stopping sexual harassment in the workplace; allowing for the recovery of attorneys' fees in employment and credit and lending cases; strengthening human trafficking laws; ending family status discrimination; stopping source-of-income discrimination; stopping housing discrimination for victims of domestic violence; stopping pregnancy discrimination; protecting victims of domestic violence by strengthening order-of-protection laws; and protecting "a woman's freedom of choice."
"We support the first nine points in the governor's agenda that enhance the true dignity of women," the bishops said. "We commit ourselves to examining those proposals and working with the legislature on any and all efforts that help guarantee real equity for all women and men. Our position on these issues will be consistent with all the efforts of the Catholic Church throughout the world to enhance the dignity of women."
But, the bishops added, "the direct taking of the life of a child in the womb in no way enhances a woman's dignity."
The bishops said, "Instead of expanding abortion and making abortions even more prevalent, we would like to protect both the woman and the child in the womb. In New York, where one in every three pregnancies ends in abortion — and upwards of six in 10 in certain communities — it is clear that we as a state have lost sight of that child's dignity."
A June 4 analysis of the bill by David Masci, a senior researcher fir Pew Research Center's Forum on Religion & Public Life said Americans continue to be of two minds on abortion.
A January Pew Forum poll showed that Americans, by better than a 2-to-1 margin, did not want Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion virtually on demand, to be overturned.
In the survey, 63 percent said they did not want Roe v. Wade struck down, while 29 percent said it should be completely overturned. In response to another question, though, 47 percent of American adults said it was morally wrong to have an abortion, compared to 27 percent who said abortion is not a moral issue, 13 who view abortion as morally acceptable, and 9 percent who said the morality of abortion depends on the situation.

Theoretical Search for RNA Folding Nuclei
Institute of Protein Research, Russian Academy of Sciences, Pushchino 142290, Moscow Region, Russia

Academic Editor: Kevin H. Knuth
Entropy 2015, 17(11), 7827-7847; https://doi.org/10.3390/e17117827
Received: 30 April 2015 / Revised: 5 November 2015 / Accepted: 17 November 2015 / Published: 23 November 2015
(This article belongs to the Special Issue Entropy and RNA Structure, Folding and Mechanics)
The functions of RNA molecules are defined by their spatial structure, whose folding is regulated by numerous factors making RNA very similar to proteins. Prediction of RNA folding nuclei gives the possibility to take a fresh look at the problems of the multiple folding pathways of RNA molecules and RNA stability. The algorithm previously developed for prediction of protein folding nuclei has been successfully applied to ~150 various RNA structures: hairpins, tRNAs, structures with pseudoknots, and the large structured P4-P6 domain of the Tetrahymena group I intron RNA. The calculated Φ-values for tRNA structures agree with the experimental data obtained earlier. According to the experiment the nucleotides of the D and T hairpin loops are the last to be involved in the tRNA tertiary structure. Such agreement allowed us to do a prediction for an example of large structured RNA, the P4-P6 RNA domain. One of the advantages of our method is that it allows us to make predictions about the folding nucleus for nontrivial RNA motifs: pseudoknots and tRNA. View Full-Text
