Is it time to make that financial new year's resolution that will help you save money in 2019? If your goal is to improve your financial life, here are a few financial new year resolutions that will help you achieve that.
1. Identify your financial goals:
Before you start on this journey, the first thing you should do is identify what your financial goals are. Are you looking to save for a house? Pay off debt? Or simply start a saving fund? Becoming specific about your goals will help you achieve them.
2. Go over your finances in 2018:
Evaluating how much you spent in 2018 and how you spent it will help pave the way to understanding just what you need to do in order to make better financial decisions and save more in the upcoming year.
3. Start tracking your spending:
Commit to a monthly tracking system to help you calculate and monitor your spending. This will obviously change from month to month, but will help you forecast your upcoming spending and will give you an idea of costs that you can eliminate the following month for bigger savings.
4. Give yourself small savings challenges:
Instead of committing to one big number, give yourself small savings challenges throughout the year. It could be as small as 100 QAR a week, or QAR 1000 a month, depending on your preference and financial situation. This will make it easier for you to commit to these savings, and not panic about a bigger number.
5. Commit to zero spend days:
Make one day or one weekend a month a 'no spend day', where you commit to not buying or spending money on anything at all.
6. Start cooking more at home:
Take out and dining out adds up to more spending, even if you don't spend too much on each meal. Cooking at home is one of the easiest ways that you can cut on spending unnecessarily and add that into your savings account.
7. Pay off your credit card debt:
If feasible, think of a way to pay off your credit card debt. The monthly payments plus interest will burn a hole into your budget, and eliminating it with a one-shot payment will be beneficial in the long run.
8. Remember that budgets can change:
Forget about the all or nothing mentality when it comes to saving. If you go over budget one month, shake it off and commit to more savings in the following month. In these instances, the spending tracker will come in handy and will help you evaluate how to move forward.

Annabelle Skin Review: RF Fat Burning & Swedish Sauna
If you have been reading my past 2 posts on Cellulite Reduction treatments: Slimming Blu and Biogenie CBV / Armonia Machine, here's 2 other treatments provided by Annabelle Skin Studio.
RF Fat Burning Treatment with Delta T
Delta T is a non-invasive RF treatment system which make use of mono-polar radiofrequency and cryotherapy supplied thru different handpieces (see the black round-shaped flat pieces) to achieve results such as lifting and skin tightening.
Radiofrequency is an electromagnetic energy flow which goes through the tissues, inducing a molecular movement in the treated areas, with consequent collisions between the ions in movement, inducing a uniform heating in the tissues at a selected depth. Radiofrequency acts on the surface or in depth, involving the deeper skin layers, (dermis and hypodermis) and protecting those superficial from the thermal damage.
The electromagnetic energy, emitted by Delta T, is transformed into thermal energy when meets localized fat and cellulite, heating the selective areas and stimulating the cellular metabolic activity. Furthermore there's an increasing of blood microcirculation induced by the vasodilatation and a better oxygen supply, basic in fat metabolism process.
Unlike the Biogenie CBV treatment where muscles are stimulated, the system boost the body to generate heat to increase body tissue's temperature without stimulating nerves or contracting muscles. The rising temperature causes cellular tissues to expand, increasing cellular activities and improving lymphatic circulation, ultimately resulting in effective fat-bursting and skin-smoothing effects.
For circulation, the Delta T System is used in combination with cryotherapy (The silver rounded piece) which is a transfer of a stabilized electronic source of cold to both a surface and a deeper level of skin, by means of a double physical mechanism.
With this, it will help to stimulate blood circulation, tone your tissues, and prevent any redness on skin (from the heat). This technology, which involves low and high frequency vibrations, fragmentize and dissolves fat, so that it can be drained out and processed by your metabolism. It also promotes the body's release and distribution of collagen, resulting in smoother and firmer skin.
Sharp & Botanica Radio Frequency Cream (RF Cream) is applied during the treatment. It is specially formulated in Italy for use with Radio Frequency equipment for face lift, skin tightening, anti-wrinkle treatments, cellulite reduction, body contouring and slimming. It has good moisturizing and anti-aging value. Effective in improving circulation and metabolism of the body
Swedish Sauna Edema Reduction treatment with Stress-Ease Spa
Have you ever went into steam room or sauna rooms but wish you could bring your phone in to use without worrying about your digital device getting wet or overheated? Well, the Stress-Ease Spa machine is perhaps an all-time dream come true for digital addicts.
Stress Ease Spa is a steam-bath machine for your body sans the head, so that your facial pores don't get over exposed with the heat and steam. We know how difficult it is to breathe in a steam-room filled with hot steam!

You have a strong mindset feeding the world with your experience. Keep staying fit, so long as you enjoy it.
Steam really is nice. I miss having our spa, we don't even have a hot tub now, lol. I need a spa day.
These look like such interesting treatments! Hope this comes to Manila someday soon! 🙂
I think I need some slimming treatment to tone and firm up my flabby arms and lower body.
I Guess you are already quite fit. I surely need this kind of a treatment. But will the effect be Long lasting?
Now I need something like you. You were already looking great and didn't really need the treatment but I guess we all have our insecurities.
This looks so cool but i wonder if it really really works.
You have an already toned body. This would be a good way to shed some more excess fats.
Once again, just like last time, very dedicated and bold of you to share these experiences with us! Thanks for the review…
That Stress Ease Spa looks relaxing. I prefer non invasive treatments, too, but I'm still wary of putting my body through machines I am not too familiar.
I want to try this. I've been working out for almost 4 weeks now and I see no results.
The sauna actually looks really comfy. Love how you can do other things while slimming down
I like the steam bath machine! I would definitely try that out if a spa near me had one.
You are very daring in posting your photos! I think people will just shut the page down if I posted photos of my body posing like you did. Hehe.
You already have great skin and a fit body, but it's good to pamper yourself every now and then. I like non invasive treatments more than surgeries, so this is great!
Start a discussion, not a fire. Share your opinions, not your prejudice. Post with kindness.

GMB, the trade union for school support staff, welcomes the introduction of a detailed policy for Swindon schools, which is designed to address the rising level of violence and abuse directed at school staff by pupils and parents.
Earlier this year GMB carried out a snapshot survey of school staff in Swindon that showed 42% of them had experienced violence from pupils during the preceding 18 months.
The snapshot survey also showed that in mainstream schools 25% had been spat at and 46% had suffered verbal abuse. In special schools for pupils who need additional support, 94% of staff had suffered violence. GMB initiated a survey of school support staff after a GMB member had their finger dislocated by an 8 year old pupil and felt the school's response was inadequate.
Andy Newman, GMB branch secretary said:
"Following the survey, GMB were extremely concerned that 25% of staff reported they were afraid or apprehensive at work, but when they report incidents or concerns to schools management, half of our members reported that the response was inadequate. GMB felt that school leadership teams did not have sufficiently clear guidance on how to deal with violence and aggressive behaviour towards staff.
"We then held detailed discussions with Swindon Borough Council's Health and Safety team, and we were surprised to discover that not only did Swindon borough council have no policy relating to violence against school staff, but we were unable to find any council in the country that had an adequate policy.
"GMB are delighted that Swindon Borough Council's Health and safety team took the issue very seriously, and the new policy being rolled out to schools is a big step forward.
"The policy unambiguously states that violence, and aggressive and anti-social behaviour towards school staff is unacceptable, and sets out in detail the responsibilities of school governors, head teachers and other school managers, and of staff themselves, to manage and reduce risks.
"In line with health and safety best practice, not only should all incidents be reported, but for very serious incidents where there is a potential for a life changing injury, then "near misses" should also be reported. Schools should escalate serious incidents, and near misses, to the Swindon Borough Council health and safety team for support and advice."

When the New York Daily News Wanted "the scoop" on the newly elected District Attorney, they Asked Seasoned Criminal Defense Attorney Norm Steiner;
When a Judge Threatens Jail for a Citizen Who Appeared for Jury Duty and Simply Told the Truth, Norm Steiner Get's all Charges Dismissed:
"After yesterday's hearing, his lawyer, Norman Steiner, said he thought Judge Wetzel was misapplying the criminal contempt statute. The law, Mr. Steiner said, is intended to penalize people who intentionally disrupt a courtroom by, for example, chanting or throwing things during a proceeding. "This isn't contempt," he said. "This is an angry judge."
Parents Remove their Children from Foster Care and Are Charged With 8 Counts of Kidnapping. Each Charge Carries a Maximum Sentence of 25 Years -Life (Totaling 200-Life). Norm Steiner Gets all Kidnapping Charges Dismissed and Resolves the Cases With Misdemeanors.
"Steiner said of his clients. 'But they were acting to protect their kids. I expect them to be fully exonerated.'"
"He is extremely remorseful," said his lawyer, Norman Steiner. "He was the first to go down into that hole in what turned out tragically to be a failed rescue attempt."
Mr. Steiner called the prosecution a public relations ploy.
"If the city put as much energy into inspecting the jobs properly as they do into rallying the support of the press and shifting liability off themselves, perhaps we wouldn't be here today," Mr. Steiner said on Wednesday outside the courtroom. "An architect designed the job. Engineers designed the job. Plans were filed."

Our meal at Rehab in Hackney
Meeting up with old friends
Someone I've known since I was 11 lives in Hackney and we were due for a catchup! If you've heard anything about Hackney recently, it's probably to do with the increasing number of vegan businesses that are opening there!
Hackney is bursting with vegan options in markets, cafes, restaurants and bars. So, we figured that this was a great way for us to catch up. I'll travel to her end, we'll enjoy a delicious meal together and I can share the experience with you!
The bonus was that Rehab hadn't been open very long, so we were going to meet, indulge and I'd get to support a new business early on, which means a lot to me.
Here's how it went...
What we ordered at Rehab
We got two dishes, which of course, we shared! We were quite full so we restrained ourselves and ordered one dessert to share.
THE NO KILL GRILL: Our vegan cheese grilled sandwich with cashew cheese, spiced beans and kimchi.
THE RAINBOW BOWL: An array of spiced heated tofu, fermented food, raw foods, condiments and seasonal greens, comes with bread. All organic.
PANCAKE STACK: A three layer stack of organic banana pancakes with organic date caramel and vegan ice cream.
What I liked about Rehab
I liked the atmosphere in Rehab, it was chilled out, friendly and casual. The cafe was spacious and the menu was quite funky. I liked that fact that they didn't have the 'regular' dishes that are available in mainstream restaurants.
In other news...Rahab is now a cafe by day and a vegan bar by night! Find out more here.
I'd love to hear from you when you pop into Rehab.
So is it hard to eat out when you're vegan?
The short answer is 'no'.
The longer answer is, 'check out the reviews here and 'find out how easy it is to buy vegan desserts when you're out and about!'

We loved this home, it felt like your favorite aunt left you the keys to her place. The house had it's cool vintage feel with a well stocked and super functional kitchen. We enjoyed the time around the fire pit and patio set. It was only a 5 minute walk to the "Old Grand Junction" Down Town. So many pro to the location to mention.Sun Seeking Canucks
This house is a great find for families with children! There are so many details that helped our little one feel at home...toys, a crib, a pack-n-play, a high chair and kid friendly serving dishes. We appreciated the kitchen stocked with everything we needed to cook the food we brought along and a comfortable king sized bed. The location is really perfect for hopping into downtown (if you are a foodie, we recommend the Bin 707 Foodbar) and it is also a short drive to the mall.
This is the third time our family has used VRBO, Glenwood Springs Co, Aruba and Grand Junction. We loved all but this is la creme de la creme. The house decor is absolutely adorable, and makes you feel right at home as soon as you walk in. It is so much larger than it appears from the exterior. Due to the extremely well stocked kitchen, utensils, herbs etc we chose to eat many meals in versus restaurants. The location is ideal if you choose to walk into town for shopping and eating. Also it is a short drive to Colorado Monument, a beautiful excursion. Thanks Amy and Steve for all the work you do to make this a home away from home. Joan VSt

Hospitality without dread
I am an introvert but I live in a community in Lima, Peru where I can't keep count of how many people have keys to our door and where the doorbell rings multiple times again. When we host mission teams one of the questions people ask me is: how do you manage to have so many people around as an introvert?
I like people. I love having people around. A misconception about introverts is that they would rather be on their own. Now my ideal day of rest definitely involves a book and some peace and quiet, (which amazingly happens sometimes now that my children have left the preschool stage), but my ideal day would actually include a mix of time alone and quality time with others. Being introverted is more about needing space apart to recharge, not about living in a library. For me, the interactions that are most life-giving are conversations with just one or two people. Being expected to interact with lots of people in one room for a party or event is much more draining and I will head to the sidelines!
Don't have time to read this article now? Click here to get a free colourful version of this article as a download straight to your inbox.
We have had so many people come to our house over the past 10 years of living in Peru and having church out of our house for 7 of those years. I got over plates and toys being broken years ago. I got over feeling I need to entertain everyone who comes to my house continually. Mark and I still camp upstairs in our room every free evening after years of having people around in our house who we could invest in at other hours of the day! (We're currently on a Downton Abbey Netflix run only 7 years late.)
Here are some of my key fears and how I am learning to get around them:
1. Fear of mess - this one is generally not as big a deal as I imagine it to be, especially now my own kids are over the 'let's tip the entire contents of this box of 1 zillion legos on the floor' stage. They also help to watch the younger children and stop them from emptying entire toy boxes. In our house, we have upstairs toys and downstairs toys. Unless we know a family well and their children are a similar age to our boys, we put up a stair gate and have a rule that the visiting kids stay downstairs. We have a small garden with a swing and patio and lots of larger toys which are suitable for younger children and at clean up time it is easy to throw those toys into the boxes. If a family looks like they may leave without clearing up after their children and I don't feel particularly able to do it all myself that day, I will start clearing up and invite the child to help. Usually, the parents get the hint!
2. Fear that people will outstay our welcome - Oh, the wonders of prayer. I don't think this was such a thing in England, but here when we have people visiting who look like they may be staying much longer than we can manage, Mark will ask them if we can pray for them and they usually then get the hint that the time is drawing to an end. If prayer isn't appropriate or just for courtesy's sake, we will often mention something we have to do later in the afternoon and state a time we are free until so the guests know the expectations. If it is an evening visit and people are sticking around beyond what we can manage, we will simply tell them that we are really sorry but we need to go to bed. I know this sounds a bit rude, and I REALLY hated doing this at first, but because I want to enjoy an ongoing relationship with them, I needed to be able to have boundaries that I can handle so that I will happily want to invite them again.
3. Fear of not having time to get other things done that I need to get done because I enjoy their company so much.
This fear is more about me getting over myself and being organized! If I really have a time deadline then I just have to be disciplined and keep the time shorter and will have to explain that to them. Sometimes it is just about faith that God knows how much time I have and what I need to get done and He will help me!
4. Fear that my children won't behave appropriately. This is a struggle for me, especially with people who don't know our family because having three boys is a world that few people truly understand. Things that help: briefing the boys beforehand of our expectations for their behavior; making sure they have had a run-around in the park in the morning; not planning important pastoral meetings when they are around; including them in the preparations and giving them small responsibilities (like running to the corner store to buy some juice) and bribery. If you are a mother of three boys you will understand. Computer time for good behaviour is the currency of choice in these parts.
5. Fear that the extra work involved will cut out time homeschooling. Two things: Keep it simple and/or prepare ahead. Nobody really cares if you have spent 5 hours or 30 minutes on a meal. Unless you are a gourmet chef (I make a great green spaghetti), people are not generally coming to your house for what you cook but for your company. Baked potatoes and toppings, or pasta with sauce are enough! Know how to make one simple dish well and use that. It doesn't matter if people have had it before (unless they spent a long time in the bathroom after dinner last time…). Get takeaway if that is an affordable option or make extra of something the week before and freeze it and reheat. I make a plan a week ahead of what we are going to eat that week and it is then that we often think about who or if we are going to invite for lunch the following week. I have a list of possible meals on my fridge and in my planner to make meal planning less stressful.
Inviting people to dinner is a wonderful opportunity for people to feel seen, heard and loved. It is a great opportunity to share God's love with others and a wonderful chance to go deeper into people's stories and lives. Our community has been built around the table and if you look at the Bible, Jesus used the table as a point of connection with so many. Everybody has to eat!
This last week I was listening to Emily P. Freeman's new podcast: Do the Next Right Thing. In episode 4: Record What You Learn, Emily talks about the importance of looking back to help you prepare for moving forward. She says that often we are reluctant to do things like hosting others for meals because we think of all the extra work involved, but if we just looked back and thought about how life-giving previous times we have hosted have been we would be encouraged to move forward.
Because we often have so many people around anyway, intentionally inviting more people to come to lunch (that's the main meal here) can sometimes seem overwhelming and fill me with dread. But when I think about the past and all the people we have had around our table, those fears, even when they have happened, have been incomparable with the joy of relationship, mutual encouragement and seeing God touch people's lives. They have been worth it.
Think back to some times you have had people over for meals in the past? What have been the joys of those occasions?
What are the fears that hold you back from wanting to make dinner plans in the next month? What can you do to address those fears?

Because of the ubiquity of occupational hazards, injuries remain prevalent and expensive. Although occupational hazards can include musculoskeletal conditions, psychosocial stress, radiation exposure, and the risk of communicable diseases, sharps injuries remain the most common among surgeons in practice and the most frequent route of transmission of blood-borne pathogens. Therefore, increased attention to the health, economic, personal, and social implications of these injuries is essential for appropriate management and future prevention. Ann Arbor, Mich.

U.K. stocks dropped for a second day on Friday and ended with a weekly loss, with shares of Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC and Standard Chartered PLC yanked down after downbeat financial updates.
The FTSE 100 UKX, -0.01% lost 0.4% to close at 7,243.70, extending its weekly loss to 0.8%. That broke the benchmark's three-week run of wins.
A selloff in British shares accelerated alongside equity losses across Europe SXXP, -0.05%, where a rise in the euro EURUSD, -0.0181% against the U.S. dollar was fed by growing doubts about quick passage of tax-cut and reform plans being pushed by U.S. President Donald Trump. In recent comments to The Wall Street Journal and CNBC, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said it's the administration's goal to have Congress complete work on tax reform by August.

The "comments from the U.S. Treasury Secretary [were] tempering any hope markets had of an immediate economic benefit of Trump's proposed policies," leading to drop in the dollar against major rivals, said Joshua Mahony, IG market analyst, in a note.
"Overall, it has been a week of false starts for the FTSE," as a "resurgent pound is proving to be a hindrance for any further upside in the FTSE," Mahony said.
The pound was up roughly 0.6% against the greenback this week. Sterling on Friday GBPUSD, -0.0160% eased a bit, buying $1.2492 compared with $1.2544 late Thursday in New York.
Banks: RBS shares RBS, -1.50% RBS, -0.78% dropped 4.5%. The sharpest slide since November was spurred after the 70% state-owned bank said its annual net loss more than tripled to 6.96 billion pounds ($8.73 billion), after it put aside billions of pounds to cover conduct issues.
Standard Chartered PLC STAN, -0.12% was pushed down 2.7% as the Asia-focused lender's narrower 2016 net loss of $478 million missed analyst expectations.
Other bank stocks moved lower, with Lloyds Banking Group PLC shares LLOY, -1.77% LYG, -1.12% off 0.4% and HSBC HSBA, -1.07% HSBC, -0.23% 5, -1.40% down 0.4%.
Barclays PLC BARC, -2.79% BCS, -1.71% shares fell 1.4%. The stock on Thursday dropped 2.6%, hurt by concerns about litigation in the U.S., after initially rising after the bank said it had swung to a full-year net profit.
Other movers: British Airways parent International Consolidated Airlines PLC IAG, -0.79% ICAGY, -0.64% climbed 4.5% after the airline group posted a 29% rise in net profit and announced a €500 million share buyback ($529.7 million), in a sign of improving profitability.
Pearson PLC shares PSON, -0.16% closed up 1.7%, but they had dropped earlier in the session after the educational publishing company reported a 2016 net loss of £2.56 billion, hit by declines in the U.K. and U.S. education markets.
Shares of Standard Life PLC UK:SL also staged a U-turn, falling 1.5%. They had been driven higher early Friday after the investment, pension and savings services provider raised its dividend payment for 2016 by 8% following a rise in earnings.

As the calendar has turned, and a new year has started, it is time for us to take a look back at what 2014 held, and what we are looking forward to in 2015.
Before we crunch some numbers, we just want to say a huge thanks to all of you. It gets said a lot, but it is true. None of this would be possible without grassroots support from you, our partners in this quest for clean water world wide. Whether you bought a bottle of our water, educated friends on the need for clean water, or took a unit to somewhere and gave the gift of clean water, we thank you!
So now the good stuff. In 2014 we took water units to Peru, Haiti, South Sudan, Cuba, The Phillippines, and India. Over 1 million people have been provided clean water in 2014 alone. We will be posting updates as we get them from our field partners.
We also launched our bottled water line this last Spring. In 9 months we have sold over 25,000 bottles of water and are now carried in over 40 vendor locations. With the money raised from each bottle sold, we intend to help provide clean water for 1.5 people in need. That is a lot of clean water.
As we start to plan out our 2015, it is looking like our biggest year yet. Just a hint at some things ahead for the new year:
- Field partnerships. We are working on partnerships with several organizations that will better help us reach those in need. These partnerships will give us a greater network of communities, as well as a more open line of communication for updates and make you more involved in the full circle process of providing clean water.
- Ambassador program. We have had many of you ask for ways to get more involved, and we think this is a great fit. You will be able to pick a region and need and then begin spreading the word of their needs. Through our field partners, we will work together to meet the needs of a specific community.
- New bottle design. We are going to give our bottled water a bit of a face lift this spring! The new design will help us better tell our story to potential customers, as well set us apart from competitors. We hope this new design will help get the attention of our first major chain and help expand the mission of Hays.
We're excited to start 2015, and can't wait to see where this journey takes us this year!

Lesbians in the Library
I issue books to so many people at the library that I rarely remember a face, but I do get impressions about people when they come up to me. If I've had an altercation with someone (usually an elderly society member or an overbearing male academic), I'll have a very bad feeling about them, but I still won't recall what they look like. This is one of the reasons why I like my job: it's as boring as batshit, but I leave everything behind at the door. However I always remember the pretty boys.
A few weeks ago two young girls came up (by 'young' I mean early twenties, because I'm starting to feel my age) and I could sense something about them, but couldn't put my finger on what it was. I started issuing the books and came across one whose date sheet was all filled up, so I got another one out of the drawer. The date sheets are like postage stamps, so we can either glue them into the book, or lick them. I'm too lazy, usually, to unscrew the glue, so I just lick them. When I did it this time, one of the girl collapsed with laughter against her friend, and I remembered what it was about them: they were lesbians, newly in love and finding all things oral very amusing. I fought down a blush, and solemnly issued the rest of the books.
Since then I've been using the glue, and I have become very deft. I'm hoping that one of the pretty boys will see me with my hand on the shaft, and will delicately raise an eyebrow.

Game Recaps
Power play catapults Roadrunners to 5-2 win
By: Alexander Kinkopf
November 18, 2016 10:14 PM
The Roadrunners' power play rocketed the club to a 5-2 victory over the Manitoba Moose Friday night at Tucson Arena, four of the team's goals coming on the man advantage.
The win kept Tucson atop the American Hockey League standings – their 8-1-2-0 record good for the best among all 30 teams. The club's flurry of power play markers also tied them with the Ontario Reign for the best success rate (30.4%) in the league.
"We've got a good group of guys; I think we keep it simple," Jamie McBain said of the team's power play success. "We get pucks to the net, we have great net presence, and we have guys that can make plays when it's time to make plays. It's pretty simple hockey, we're just getting pucks to the net and finding ways to score."
In what was the first of a season-long six-game home stand for the Roadrunners, neither club scored in the opening frame, the Moose outshooting Tucson 12-5.
"We got off to a better start, but there still could be some improvement there," said Adin Hill of the team's start. "They controlled the play a bit, but it's getting better. After the first period it was 0-0, we want to be ahead of course, but we'd rather be tied than behind."
Just before the midway point of the game, Brendan Perlini stuffed home a Craig Cunningham pass to get the Roadrunners on the board, netting his seventh goal of the season.
Manitoba's Darren Kramer answered three minutes later, getting the Moose on the board to tie the game 1-1.
With under two minutes left in the second, Craig Cunningham – stationed in front of Manitoba's net, redirected a Jamie McBain shot/pass past Eric Comrie to give the Roadrunners a 2-1 lead.
In the third, Manitoba tied the game 2-2 via a Jimmy Lodge goal before Tucson answered back with three consecutive tallies to run away with the win.
Brendan Perlini scored his second goal of the night, and his team-leading eighth of the season, when he tipped a Jamie McBain shot past Manitoba's Comrie while providing a screen on the power play.
With 4:15 to play in regulation, Brandon Burlon netted the Roadrunners' only even-strength goal of the evening when he received a pass from Justin Hache and walked in to beat Comrie with a wrist shot high to the far side.
With Eric Comrie pulled from Manitoba's net during the game's final moments for an extra attacker, Michael Bunting registered his sixth goal of the season, giving the Roadrunners a 5-2 lead, the night's eventual final score.
"It's good, obviously anytime you're winning it's a happy place to be," McBain said of the Roadrunners' start. "It's an exciting time to be here – obviously it's the first season in Tucson, so hopefully the fans are excited about it with us being able to put together some wins, especially with us being at home, it's been a fun place to play, and hopefully we can continue that success."
Brendan Perlini (2G, 1A) led all Roadrunners players in points scored (3); Adin Hill made 40 saves in the win.
The Roadrunners will play the Moose Saturday night at Tucson Arena, where the puck is slated to drop just after 7:05 PM MST. You can purchase your tickets for that game HERE.

Part One : All the other first chances.
Nysc was 2016 and I had the time of my life. I was young, living alone in big room with minimal human interaction and an unhindered supply of electricity which meant my favorite TV series could not be stopped. I even had a cute boyfriend that would visit once in a while . During one of my visits back home that year, my dad had seen me walk by and he gleefully exclaimed "oh , for a minute there I thought you were your mother! You are getting really big these days o". So I decided I was too fat and I wanted to go on a diet. I would stand in front of the mirror and examine my belly for hours; longing for a slimmer waistline , a more pronounced collar-bone and wishing all those folds would just disappear! After days of searching the internet, I came across eating once a day for weight loss and it seemed like the easiest for me. I began my weight loss journey on the 15th of August 2016 and it has been a ride!
Part Two : The End justifies the "Mean". 2016-2018
Barely two years after I started eating once a day, I had lost about 10kg and contrary to what I had thought, it brought me very little satisfaction. I kept pushing myself and constantly felt the need to skip meals and feel good about myself. I would go two whole days without eating a meal and bask in the joy that I was losing the weight which, at this point, wasn't even there anymore. Food had become an enemy that I had to fight strategically, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Meanwhile, food was everywhere. It would begin in the morning; I Would watch my tiny little niece gulp down her 75cl bottle of milk…about this time, my sister would have gotten herself a delicious looking plate of rice and quickly thrown it down her throat without a care in the world. Everyone would just eat and eat and I'd think "I am the modern hero, Food don't get to me". Even though I was being very mean to myself, the end did justify the "mean"; I got the slimmer waistline, a more pronounced collar bone and folds gone . Now I realize those were a bit ridiculous to want in the first place.
I visited my then boyfriend and spent ten days. Ten Heavenly days of eating and eating and watching Series and sleeping. I ate everything. Healthy, unhealthy? Who cares?!. I ate rice, chocolate, chocolate cookies, ice cream, chips, popcorn, pizza, biscuits, sweet, bread, I even went against the Holy rule and drank a bottle of coke…to mention a few. I ate in those ten days more than I normally would in a month. I went all out, rules were broken ,barriers destroyed! After each meal, my mind would stray to my diet and I would imagine how strict my Fast would be when I eventually left back home. After each meal, my arms would appear bigger in the mirror and I would smile and shake my head " you are so going down after I leave this place, literally". I went about with so much emptiness and trying so hard to be perfect that I was so self-conscious and failed to enjoy the moment. Little did I know that would be our last visit together and end of the relationship.
Part Three : The Second Chance. Today.
As I deleted photos of my ex-boyfriend and I from my phone, it dawned on me that I was indeed saying goodbye. And that area of my life that had brought me so much joy, satisfaction and completeness would no longer be there. I kept on deleting; our first pictures together, our holiday visits, our dates, the random moments and our last pictures. I thought back to all those promises, plans and prayers and instead of shedding a tear, I felt a new wave of emotions. It was love. A new-found kind of love that sweeps over me each time I'm tempted to regret, to worry or to over-analyze what I could have or shouldn't have done. Perfect love indeed, casts out fear!
Days of crying, worrying and yelling at God to fix my relationship finally led to me seeking God's perfect love and acceptance. Grace found me and I got a second chance at true love. I remember being home alone one afternoon and completely drenched in tears, feeling so betrayed and alone and wondering if God even loved me at all. I mean I was in a relationship for three years with this really good person and I messed it up with my constant complaining, verbal abuse and anger. As I thought of how good he was to me and how I had failed, I would hit myself again and again and wonder why??? For about a month, I went about with guilt, fear of the future and condemnation in my heart, feeling betrayed by myself and God. Finally, a voice said in my sleep "let God complete you!". It's been 3 months of depending solely on God, experiencing the constant companionship of Jesus and I feel complete! Once I started to learn and experience the grace of God I no longer felt the compelling need to starve myself or condemn myself. Jesus is so cool. What manner of man takes away your anger, your failures, your frustration and your low self-esteem and gives you His joy, confidence, beauty and assurance of everlasting love? I've gotten to my last bus stop in searching for love.
I got a second chance to experience true love and I'll never go back. God's overwhelming love completely changed me and while I look forward to sharing this love with my future spouse , I now do not feel the need to be made "complete" or" satisfied" by anyone but God. It's funny how the lowest times in your life, when turned into a weapon for growth, can utterly transform you and make you the best version of yourself. I went through a really bad time and came out really good, through Christ who strengthens me! This new season of my life has made me realize how many things I take for granted and has made me focus more on God and my self. I spent three years idolizing my relationship and his "grace" wasn't sufficient for my weaknesses but God's grace is! The break up was a wake-up call and I love it!

It Came to My Attention
It came to my attention the other day that I really like helping people with personal advice and that sometimes it can lead to answers someone was looking for. I don't mean this to sound know-it-all in any way because I DEFINITELY do not know it all - but I do have some experience in a few areas & maybe some more experience than someone else. Especially when it comes to the wedding industry. I figured it would probably be best to write about some of those things and that if someone was looking for advice on something that I might have exactly what they are looking for.
Does anyone else have a Tumblr or am I the only 27 year old with a blog chalk full of pictures? I know my BFF Erika has one still because we follow each other and ever since college we just repost repost repost all of our favorite things. There's something really therapeutic about gathering a million pictures of what the inside of your brain looks like. I think the process of "gathering" those photos has lead me to an obsession of gathering things I love and making lists of those things. When it comes to weddings & bridal related things, I could make lists of favorites for days. So I think maybe I'll start sharing those lists because why not.
I don't want to make this too long because I'd love to get started and share a few of my favorites with everyone but I do want to make a note that I think people should share their favorites with me too because like I said, I don't know everything & would love to have my eyes opened up to even more possibilities that I could share with other people.
So here it goes, I hope you like it!
xoxo - Kirsten Alise

President Muhammadu Buhari has vowed not to hesitate to prosecute any member of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), involved in corrupt practices.
Speaking in an interview granted to The Interview Magazine and culled by the Punch, he denied claims that he was protecting those who sponsored his campaign and some members of the APC in his anti-corruption war. He also said that some unnamed persons pressurized him to contest the 2015 presidential election which he won.
He said he would come down hard on any of his backers with a proven case of corruption.
The President said, "Do you just grab people along the road and take them off to court for trial just because you want to create a semblance of balance?
"First, there has to be an accusation which must be properly investigated, and when a prima facie case has been built, you prosecute.
"If any of my backers or party (APC) members has anything established against them, let's see whether I will shield anyone from prosecution.
"There seems to be a preponderance of the People Democratic Party members standing trial because they had been in power for 16 years, they had access to the public treasury and abused the trust reposed in them.
"You can be assured that anybody caught in corruption will answer for it irrespective of party, tribe or religion."
He said those who talked him into running for president after he had announced he was no longer interested after being rejected by voters on three occasions believed in him to rescue the nation from falling apart.
He said, "You will recall that shortly before the 2011 presidential election, I had said it was the last time I would offer myself for elective position and I meant it, but the following years, we saw our country virtually falling apart on all fronts.
"People felt a rescue exercise was necessary and a large number believed I could do it.
"They made overtures to me and the pressure was so enormous that I could not say no. As they say, the rest is history. "
On the claim that his administration has been slow, he said there was no point rushing things as he could end up with avoidable mistakes.
"There is still a lot of wisdom in the saying, 'slow and steady wins the race.'
"If they say we are slow, do they also say we are steady?
"Then, it means we will win the race eventually.
"There is no wisdom in being in a rush and messing up everything. You will make avoidable mistakes and end up with a lot of regrets," he said.
The President also said he would wait for the advice of the Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), on whether to prosecute those who voluntarily returned looted funds or not.
"We will note the recommendation of the Attorney General of the Federation. We do not want to deliberately disgrace people. All we want is public money back," he explained.

Phillip was kind enough to ask me to write a review of one of my favorite lenses: The Leica R Apo-Elmarit 180mm/F2.8 E67.
I love this lens because it is optically excellent from wide open, lacks field curvature, has pleasing rendering, is well corrected, is small enough to comfortably hand hold, and is bright enough at F2.8 to use even in less than optimal light. I use this lens on Sony because there is no comparable native lens available.
It has been called the world's best medium telephoto lens. While I cannot confirm or deny this claim, it is indeed a very fine optic in my experience. As will be seen below, it has many virtues and few weaknesses.

Ma just paid off her house and the café in back. She now earns more than enough with her shamanic cures for tourists, and can provide free biscuits and beer for homeless clients and dogs. Customers gather seven days a week at Ma's Place, drink warm ale, Turkish coffee and Bushell's tea, served by Ma's brother, Midget, and sister, Possum. The middle aged, the elderly and the lonely, sit together and socialize, as was once their custom in outback towns.
Ma's Place: Offering illumination through body art, alternative clothing, vision quests and ritual scarring.
So say the ads in the Morning Herald, so say the flyers pinned to the Ma's Place bulletin board, and to telephone poles around the city's western suburbs. At one fork of the Shepherd's Highway, where the peak hour traffic halts, one massive billboard pictures Ma's puffy, pale face, plastered with yellow paint and framed with a buzz of white hair.
Ma's house and the cafe sit fifty feet from the highway where people toss garbage from cars. Ma combs through the front yard every day and collects discarded treasures such as hamburger wrappers, tarnished rings with fake rubies, used white handkerchiefs and half-burnt cigarettes that she smokes later.
At ninety-nine years old, Ma stays upright with the aid of a mixture she invented, one from rainwater and white cement powder gathered from the abandoned building site at the end of the street. Once a week she applies the goop with a painter's brush, and hangs herself out to dry on a clothes line on the roof. The potion takes twenty years off the way she looks and feels as it straightens the scoliosis she inherited from childhood hunger. Ma smokes her cigarette stubs in the gap between her two front teeth, even while performing daily meditation at five a.m. In truth, she has shaved off her remaining wisps of white hair. Ma prefers to choose from her collection of kangaroo fur wigs, so she might appear attractive in photographs.
In Ma's Place, neighborhood hanger-outers drink beer or black tea with cream and sugar. While customers eat homemade lamingtons smothered with wild honeysuckle jam, Ma passes around her menu of shamanic offerings that include non-clothing and clothing options. Three or four of her customers return each full moon to regain the sense of liberation and excitement they feel when naked at Ma's Place. Most clients choose to wear at least one body decoration such as the alternative choice of two white cockatoo feathers sewn onto each scapula like angel wings.
One regular hanger outer, a ninety year old gentleman, sits at the same corner table every day. He adorns his naked body with skeletal white stripes.
"We must remember what lies under our skin," he says to Ma as she serves goanna stew.
"Well, I know what lies under your skin!" Ma teases.
The old man winks. "You're a cheeky one, Ma," he says and she hands him a free beer.
Tourists come to the café dressed in city clothes such as six inch stiletto heels and designer trousers. After a few hours, Ma transforms them.
"If you want to live, you must die to your old ways," she says. "Clothes hide your true nature, that of flesh and blood, of death to come. Wake up to who you really are!"
Ma sings to the courageous few who undergo the clothes stripping ritual. With a smile, they donate their clothes to her charity box. The gratefully awakened leave Ma's Place wearing only body art and tiny scars that will remind them of her words. Ma rips up the donated suits for use as bandages, offers the prettiest dresses to her neighbors, and gives the stiletto heels to homeless dogs who have no bones to chew.
When interviewed by The Shamanic, one British tourist said: "I couldn't believe how much better I felt once my clothes were gone! I've ordered five jars of red body ochre."
"I'm bringing my husband here," a tourist from Perth added. "He works eighty hours a week in the used car business. I'm hoping Ma can help him remember me."
The police in Australia voice concern over tourists who file into Ma's house and file out wearing only body piercings and stripes. One officer voiced his complaint on the front page of The Rattle Nest: "They could catch their death of cold," he said. Later, the officer visited Ma to see for himself, and left dressed in feathers and red paint. A reporter wrote that he saw Ma wearing a man's police uniform the next day.
Sometimes, Ma decorates the neighborhood dogs just for fun. She dresses the naked mutts in white cockatoo feather skirts, feathered beards and shell necklaces. The dogs sit in her tiny kitchen and whine until she clothes them like uppity city dogs from the north shore. In return, they bring trinkets from the streets.
To maintain a steady stream of clients, Ma places another advertisement in the newspaper:
Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming city shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I offer transformation inside my shaman's door!

I couldn't leave ya in a lurch, not after I've been all back on track lately! :)
Unexpected Circumstances, Chapter 33:
"They have no markings," one of the guards said.
"Mercenaries," replied another voice.
"Turn!" I heard Edward order. "We must head back!"
"It is too late, Sire!"
Within seconds, I heard the first clash of steel-on-steel. My hands covered my mouth, though I was sure any scream I uttered would not have been heard over the noise from right outside the carriage door. At first I moved to the far side of the carriage and away from the door, but then I moved closer as I tried to make sense out of the yelling and noise I could hear outside. My teeth were practically puncturing my lip, and I did not know what I should do.
Unfortunately, my next steps were not of my own choosing.
Tempt My Tongue...
Four Days and Counting...
"Please what?" I snarled as I turned to face the man who made me this way.
|Banner by Emily8009
"Please deny what you made me, in order to ease your conscience? Is that what you want, Carlisle? Is that what you need? Because I am not interested."
Carlisle's only offspring is a complete failure…
There may be a touch of angst.

"Wrong mine, wrong place."
That's the message delivered today by 50 fishing and hunting businesses and organizations to First Quantum Minerals, the Canadian mining company currently deciding whether to sign an options agreement with proposed Pebble Mine backer, Northern Dynasty Minerals.
In the letter entities including The Orvis Company, the American Fly Fishing Trade Association, Trout Unlimited, Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership, American Sportfishing Association, Izaac Walton League, Backcountry Hunters and Anglers, dozens of Bristol Bay lodges, and other businesses and organizations representing hundreds of thousands of American hunters and anglers, expressed, "staunch and long-lasting opposition to the proposed Pebble Mine" and to urged First Quantum Minerals to withdraw financial support from the proposed project.
"Together in solidarity, we represent millions of people; those who underestimate this opposition do so at their own risk. Accordingly, we urge First Quantum Minerals to choose not to invest in this mine proposal because of the jobs, culture and salmon it puts at risk."
Today, we thank these organizations for speaking up, and stand with them in opposition to Pebble Mine or any proposal that would jeopardize the clean water, remote landscape, tens of thousands of jobs, and once-in-a-lifetime fishing and hunting opportunity in Bristol Bay, Alaska.

The proposed ABF tentative agreement has finally been revealed – and it's not what Teamsters deserve or expect. This deal should be sent back for renegotiation and improvement.
We urge all ABF Teamster to review it, discuss it with fellow Teamsters and attend your union meeting this weekend where it will be presented. The decision is up to you.
Click here to read the proposed tentative deal.
- No Catch-Up on Wages: There is no catch-up raise to make up for the $1.70 per hour concession we took in 2013. The wage increases are 30¢-35¢-40¢-45¢-50¢ in an agreement which is 63 months long – more than five years. Thirty cents is just 1.2 percent. That's well below the rate of inflation.
- Pension Freeze: The pension payments from ABF are frozen for 63 months. At the meeting for officials today, local leaders from Philadelphia, Upstate New York and New England spoke out against this giveback because it threatens their pension funds. We're supposed to defending our pensions, not undermining them.
- Subcontracting of road work continues. The 6% limit on Purchased Transportation is reduced to 5%, but this cap is no more enforceable than it was before. There is still a two-tier clause, where drivers hired after July 1, 2018, do not have their work protected. Our union should not be selling out the unborn.
This and That…
- The vacation week given away in 2013 is restored to the 2008 language. This is a plus.
- The deal includes a $1000 bonus, to try to buy Yes Vote. Even a raise of 5¢ is worth more than this over 63 months. Do they really think they can buy a Yes vote for less than a nickel?
- This pension freeze means that the raises are essentially taken from pension payments the company is saving. Previously, contracts usually provide $1 per year to be divided between pension and health and welfare. With zero to pensions, and 39c-40c-42c-50c-50c to H&W, that's a huge savings for the company, and more than the wage increases.
- The union gave the company a separate ABF grievance panel, so all the management side people will be ABF personnel who can deadlock or defeat any grievance (See Article 7.) The procedure is already weak: this looks to be worse.
Sign up for updates and get involved in the fight for a good contract with ABF Teamsters United.

John Paolino commented 2018-04-13 14:28:14 -0400We need to vote no to this ratification proposal. They want to freeze are pensions with no more contributions up here in the Northeast and we need the support of everyone across the states to keep United and vote no to this contract. Anybody that falls for this BS will be kicking themselves in the ass for years to come
Randy Lobb commented 2018-04-13 10:05:44 -0400Hoffa didn't vote himself back in. Now you're going to pay for it!
Greg L Mead commented 2018-04-12 19:47:23 -0400What a Joke… Union Wages were the Standard for Non-Union to keep near.. we are the bottom feeders now, behind the Big Non-Union Fed-Ex, Old Dominion etc..
Thanks HOFFA! Vote No!
Wage increases need to be in DOLLARS NOT CENTS!!
YRC LOCAL 81.. Pay Us Now!
No Give Backs Again!
We Deserve Our Pension!

As a small business owner, you might want to get a corporate credit card but believe that obtaining one is out of reach. Credit card companies often prefer businesses with extensive histories and review the business owners' credit before issuing the cards. Fortunately, there is a good alternative for small businesses. Bento for Business Visa® Debit Cards can offer you the flexibility that you need while also saving your business money.
Corporate credit cards versus prepaid cards
Corporate credit cards often come with high annual fees and interest rates. They also may impact your credit because checks that are done by credit card companies in connection with credit applications cause your score to drop. Since the cards at Bento for Business are business Visa debit cards, your credit will not be impacted. You can sign up for as many as 10 cards for a low monthly fee of $29, and you will not be charged annual fees or interest. Funds held within Bento are FDIC insured to at least $250,000 through The Bancorp Bank; Member FDIC.
Corporate credit cards are often abused by employees who make personal purchases with them. Some employees may withdraw money with corporate credit cards. The cards at Bento for Business come with features that help to end employee theft and abuse before it happens.
How can you prevent employee theft?
Employee theft is a huge problem for companies across the U.S. In addition to the misuse of company credit cards, employees may embezzle funds from bank accounts, use check fraud schemes and steal from petty cash. Even long-term and trusted employees sometimes commit acts of embezzlement. When you convert your company's spending to business debit cards from Bento for Business, you can eliminate this type of fraud and abuse by your employees.
The debit cards from Bento for Business allow you to establish limits on employee spending. You can choose the types of spending that each employee is allowed to do according to the tasks of his or her job. Employees who must drive for their jobs might be allowed to use their cards to purchase gas at the pump but not to buy other items inside of the convenience stores. An office worker might be allowed to buy paper, pens, toner and other office supplies but nothing else. The office manager may be able to pay for utilities and the monthly lease. If any employees attempt to buy unauthorized items or to make withdrawals, they will be denied. You will also be able to see the declined attempts from your account's dashboard, allowing you to act accordingly.
From your dashboard, you can see your card balances and transaction histories on every card. If you need to do so, you can immediately end an individual employee's access. This obviates the need to try to retrieve a card from an employee that you have to terminate. When you hire a new employee, you can similarly turn on his or her card by clicking a button. Your cards can be ordered with your employees' names imprinted on them, allowing them greater flexibility in making the purchases that your company needs.
Free 60 Day Trial Bento for Business Debit Card
Small businesses need the flexibility that corporate credit cards can offer, but it might be better to choose an alternative like the business Visa debit cards from Bento for Business. We offer a free 60-day free trial and you can sign up today. You can also call us at 866.220.8455 to learn more.

Visitors and locals have been having great fun on flathead over the last few days with great catches of 45-50cm fish common. Most anglers are using Hawksbury River Prawns or soft plastics such as 70mm Squidgy Fish or Ecooda Live Shrimp. Whiting are still in good schools near Tuncurry Bridge in the channel plus on the flats at the back of Lanis Caravan Park. Good catches also reported from the back of Lakeside Resort Park in Pipers Bay. Poppers are still working well down the back off Green Point on the weed beds. Kayak anglers working the oyster racks are fighting large Bream on soft plastics or whitebait. Crabs are everywhere and prawns are still running for another week or so.
Reports of groper around McBrides with a few good blackfish amongst them. A good burley trail will get them on the bite, although it can attract "toothy" critters as well that take fish before you can land them.
Local fishos have reported good snapper up to 6kg at the 30 metre mark and are taking Lucanus jigs. In close there are still plenty of Flathead on the gravel. Out wide the water is still a bit cool at only 19 degrees so the fish are a little sparse. A few guys trolled around and got some small but legal Kingfish on Orca style lures.
Whiting at Elizabeth are common late in the afternoon. A few good jewfish were caught on Christmas night off Blueys Beach along with heaps of Shovelnose sharks. Tuncurry Beach North near Back beach at Blackhead has produced good Bream on pilchard fillets.
A reminder to all our visiting friends that we will be open over the Christmas period every day from 8.00am till late.

Last week my family went to the Arizona Renaissance Festival. It was great! I caught a stone thrown by the Queen, I got to eat 2 huge pickles, I met a mermaid, saw people eat fire, and even got to meet a fairy! I was very excited when we got the Twig the Fairy and the Curious Land of Real book so I could read it to my sisters.
This book was different from other books that we have. This book has photographs instead of drawings. I like that this book has pictures instead of drawings because you can see real fairies and mermaids in the book, since you can't see them in real life! The land of fairies is different because it has bubble blowing flowers, mermaids, and magic flowers, too.
If I were going to write a book, I would use pictures because pictures help the reader understand what is going on in the story and to show what there doing. Next, I would use pictures because it can show the reader how they feel, what their actions are and there facial expressions so you just know how the character feels and acts. Last, I would have pictures because the reader can see real pictures from the story and see there setting and where they take place!!
My favorite part is when Twig gives the three girls the stone and the three girls find the land of fairy and explore. It feels like a magical story because it showed me I could put the stone under my pillow and I can visit the world of fairies! To me, that is magical. Every time I read this book it reminds me of it because we saw Twig and mermaids there, so that is why it reminds me of the Renaissance Festival!
If you live in Arizona, near Phoenix, and want to visit the Renaissance Festival then you can do that on the weekends until April 1st 2018! Then, it will go away until next year. Learn more at arizona.renfestinfo.com.
You can also buy the book Twig the Fairy and the Curious Land of Real HERE! Plus there are 4 other books and other cool fairy stuff, too!
