Business Schools Visioning Might Disrupt the Business of Associations/
If their association realizes a new vision for business schools, they could become your association's fiercest competitor or strongest partner in management education and leadership development.
AACSB International has issued a collective vision for business education that challenges business schools to play five significant roles:
- Catalysts for innovation
- Hubs of lifelong learning
- Co-creators of knowledge
- Leaders on leadership
- Enablers of global prosperity
Many associations can and should also claim all five roles for themselves. As I read the AACSB International vision report, I underscored statement after statement that could equally apply to associations in their areas of influence.
The vision calls business schools out of academia and into the world. "They will be defined less as isolated units and more through the connections that help them achieve their knowledge creation, education and community-building missions."
As a catalyst for innovation, business schools are invited to partner with "industries or industry clusters to create platforms for incubating new management ideas, or to analyze big data across firms to better understand and customize talent development needs." A strong theme in this vision is joining with others as co-creators of the knowledge our world needs for success.
As hubs of lifelong learning, the vision challenges business schools to "move beyond the bounds of traditional degree-based education and traditional markets served". They can become learning laboratories where theory is enriched by practice. Schools are urged to meet the needs of "individuals' learning pathways" that are "more likely to comprise modularized, fragmented and just-in-time education experiences." Using technology platforms to enhance delivery and leverage experiential learning, schools can tailor education to the "learners' specific role, industry or career trajectory".
Many associations recognize the need to offer leadership development programs. AACSB International is encouraging business schools to be "leaders on leadership with the capacity to compete locally across sectors in the leadership development space." And to ensure business schools do leadership development best, they are challenged to develop "the evidence-based theoretical and practical foundations of leadership while also building on the contextual knowledge of other disciplines and schools."
Acknowledging that the boundaries are now blurred among business, government, and nonprofits, AACSB International encourages business schools to facilitate new partnerships to "address social problems, not just business and management problems." The vision aspires to serve the common good.
Vision is only as powerful as its implementation and change often comes too slowly. Business schools will have to execute this vision in the bureaucratic and resource-constrained world of academia. Those that succeed could become powerful competitors and/or partners for the work associations aspire to do. Associations might be more nimble in their ability to pursue all five roles. The race to a preferred future is on, and whoever gets there first, we all win.

Suveg Cellars Wine and Cheese Pairing Guide Part 2
Enjoy our second of two posts that take a deep dive into multiple varieties of gourmet cheese and suggest pairings with Suveg Cellars Wine.
Cantal (kahn-TAHL)
Processed from cow milk from the provenance of Auvergne, France this cheese has a semi-hard paste and leaves a formidable yet sublime lasting impression. Like similar mountain cheeses, Cantal develops melded, complex and nutty flavors when well aged with smooth and buttery flavors with gentle presence that linger gracefully.
Suggested Similar Cheeses: Laguiole, Lancashire, Salers, Wensleydale
Suggested Wine Pairing: Suveg Cellars 2015 Grenache
Gouda (How-dah)
A favorite in our tasting room since 2014, this cow milk cheese from Holland sustained Dutch explorers on their log sea faring voyages and then in their colonies as well. This cooked curd cheese properly aged is grainy, salty, tangy and sharp with a hint of butterscotch on the finish. Gouda offers a firm dense texture with deep mouthwatering flavors and a particularly lingering finish. Potential aging peaks at 6 years but thereafter begins to lose its balanced flavor.
Suggested Similar Cheeses: Coolea, Mimolette, Roomano, Edam
Suggested Wine Pairing: Suveg Cellars 2014 Incorrigible
Parmigiano-Reggiano (par-mee-JAH-noh reh-JAH-noh)
Often referred to as simply "Parmesan" in English, it can be on one hand an unpretentious straightforward cheese but on the other a magnificent artifact and Italian national treasure worth of the loftiest accolades. A well- aged authentic cow milk Parmigiano-Reggiano from Emilia-Romagna, Italy exhibits a hard granular, crumbly, flaky paste ideal for grating but equally capable of just melting in your mouth while offering a subtle yet complex matrix of fragrant, vegetal, fruity and savory flavors that linger luxuriously on the palate.
Suggested Similar Cheeses: Grana Padano, Piave
Suggested Wine Pairing: Suveg Cellars 2014 Primitivo, Suveg Cellars 2016 Barbera
Stanser Roteli (STAN-sir ROH-the-lee)
Processed from cow milk from the provenance of Canton Schwyz, Switzerland this outstanding cheese offers a restrained yet balanced flavor profile that has the potential to age gracefully. The pride of this particular cheese is in its restraint; it exhibits uncompromised satisfaction and insistent flavors without overwhelming the palate.
Suggested Similar Cheeses: Durrus, Reblochon, Oma, Kuntener
Suggested Wine Pairing: Suveg Cellars 2015 One Shady Lady
The rare, remaining genuine British cow milk Cheddars such as Keen's, Montgomery's, Lincolnshire and Reade's from the Isle of Mull, Scotland are superb examples of the potential aging of raw-milk farmhouse cheeses. A solid cheddar features a hard paste and friable consistency with fruity, sharp and nutty flavors. Superior quality Cheddars may also be found in most of the English speaking world including California, Vermont Southwestern England and the Western coast of Scotland.
Suggested Similar Cheeses: Lancashire, Cantal, Double Gloucester
Suggested Wine Pairing: Suveg Cellars 2014 Nebbiolo

Revising Your Beliefs
You're on a quest for truth together. In the coming months, you'll have some deep, intense and sober discussions about subjects that really mean something to both of you -- and you might not like the conclusions you come to. The current energy is the kind that pushes you to be honest with yourselves and each other about your true perceptions and feelings, and what you discover may make you feel uncomfortable.
But push through it! You're in a position to really figure things out, and this opportunity shouldn't be missed. If there's some system of political or spiritual beliefs that you both value, you might tweak your views now to make them more personal, or abandon them altogether in favor of something that's closer to the kind of people you really are. This process may make for something of a serious period; your conversations with each other will often focus on heavy subjects, and light chitchat or flirtatious banter may be pretty much out the window for now! But this is important work you're doing: You're helping each other to define who you are, both as individuals and as a couple. Don't be afraid to dig deep in your discussions.

In the largest protests Syria has seen in months, hundreds of thousands of people have taken to the streets in a display of defiance to show an Arab League observer mission the strength of the opposition movement.
Despite the monitors' presence in the country, activists said Syrian forces loyal to President Bashar Assad killed at least 22 people yesterday, most of them shot during the anti-government demonstrations.
In a further attempt to appeal to the monitors, dissident troops who have broken away from the Syrian army said they have halted attacks on regime forces to reinforce the activists' contention that the uprising against Assad is a peaceful movement.
While opposition activists are deeply sceptical of the observer mission, the outpouring of demonstrators across Syria underscores their wish to make their case to the foreign monitors and take advantage of the small measure of safety they feel they brought with them.
The nearly 100 Arab League monitors are the first that Syria has allowed into the country during the uprising, which began in March. They are supposed to ensure the regime complies with terms of the League's plan to end Assad's crackdown on dissent. The UN says more than 5,000 people have died as the government has sought to crush the revolt.
Yesterday's crowds were largest in Idlib and Hama provinces, with about 250,000 people turning out in each area, according to an activist and eyewitness who asked to be identified only as Manhal because he feared government reprisal. Other big rallies were held in Homs and Daraa provinces and the Damascus suburb of Douma, according to Rami Abdul-Raham, who heads the British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
The crowd estimates could not be independently confirmed because Syria has banned most foreign journalists from the country and tightly restricts the local media.
Haytham Manna, a prominent Paris-based dissident and human rights defender, said the observers' presence has emboldened protesters to take to the streets in huge numbers.
"Whether we like it or not, the presence of observers has had a positive psychological effect, encouraging people to stage peaceful protests a basic condition of the Arab League peace plan," he told The Associated Press.
The observers began their mission Tuesday in Homs, often referred to by many Syrians as the "Capital of the Revolution." Since then, they have fanned out in small groups across Syrian provinces, including the restive Idlib province in the north, Hama in the centre and the southern province of Daraa, where the revolt began.

I arrived as a first-year at UNC with a chip on my shoulder and a burden on my heart.
Without a merit scholarship, athletic team, or club affiliation to call my own, I came to Carolina thinking I needed to prove my worth. I felt burdened to be more than a small fish in a large Carolina Blue pond. I thought my value as a person derived from achievement, in and out of the classroom. My ambition, simply and facetiously put, was to try to become superman
In my first semester at Carolina, life as "superman" quickly got crazy. I joined an athletic club team, an intramural team, student government, the honor system, two campus ministries, and a Bible study while trying to achieve a perfect GPA, make friends, and further my relationship with the Lord. Seeking worth in activities was totally exhausting and I knew I couldn't keep it up.
Therefore, in my second semester at UNC, realizing a life as "superman" was unsustainable, I turned my focus to academics. The classroom was a place where I knew I could succeed given enough hard work; my grades replaced activities as a frame of my self-image, the self-portrait in which I could control every brushstroke. Therefore, midway through the second semester, when my grades didn't turn out as I expected, I was crushed. For the first time in my life, anxiety reared its ugly head.
Driven to maximize study time, I stopped going to church, reading the Bible, exercising, eating well, or investing in relationships. I was so anxious about my grades and proving my worth (to myself of all people!) that I started carrying duplicate textbooks, extra batteries, bluebooks, and scantrons with me at all times as academic insurance against any surprises. My anxieties culminated in sleepless nights and in my final history recitation, when, after receiving a low grade on a minimal homework assignment, I started shaking uncontrollably. I was miserable and knew something had to change.
My body told me what my mind had refused to fully acknowledge: my priorities were completely out of order.
In my insecurity, I had put becoming "superman" above walking humbly with the Lord. I had bought into the lie that I could determine my own value and establish my own worth. In that demented journey, I had lived as if my resume and outward accomplishments would reveal my inner-greatness. Threatened with the insurmountable demands of a life established on my own terms, my body started to give up on me.
One passage of scripture in particular spoke to me in that place.
As Christians, we are called to humility before God in recognition of our own weakness. Trust me, personal worth is not an object to be achieved or a quality to be discovered by looking inward. It is a mindset mercifully granted by an unconditionally loving God, bestowed when we look to Him with trust.
Receiving my worth from someplace (or someone) else has brought me a measure of peace. I can't definitively say my deep sense of worry is now entirely gone, or that I have completely reoriented my priorities towards Christ. My spiritual walk is a work in progress, and I know that change takes time. However, I can definitively say I have learned God's grace extends to all people, from those struggling with anxiety to those trying to be "superman."

I have just launched a beta version of a new project, Zebo is a bit of a experiment to see if its possible to rank a website with little or no original content. I am taking feeds from many online retailers to see if this is possible.
Within 24 hours of launch it was a pleasant surprise to see google crawling the site like mad, before the day was out google had also updated its index with over 200 URL's which to be honest I was a little shocked by the speed this happened.
Time will tell if these pages will rank for anything meaningful but I will start tracking the SERPS now to see what happens.
The beta version is only using eBay as a data feed but a lot more feeds are planned so very soon I will also be able to start doing price comparisons.
This is a joint project between myself and Thomas Harvey, a SEO consultant who has vast experience of ranking large scale ecommerce sites.

The last two weeks have been rough. Policing in the aftermath of the murders in Moncton has been challenging, but we're keeping on as best we can. There has been an out-pouring of public support, which makes the burdens a little easier to bear, and I've found myself getting emotional at work. One comment, made by an elderly man who happened to be passing me on a rainy sidewalk while I was working on something, almost brought me to tears.
He asked me, "Well, Laddie, you got your head above water?"
I said, "Yes, sir, I'm trying."
He touched me on the shoulder as he passed, just the lightest brush of his gnarled fingers. "Glad to hear it, son. You make me proud."
I'm not entirely certain what he was referring to, but it didn't matter.
I've always taken my work life seriously, but after Moncton I'm just a little more cautious than I was before. I am still courteous, and do my best to be patient, but I find myself giving people just a little less space, being a little more abrupt in my responses.
I had an incident at work this week, that saw a man try very enthusiastically to do harm to me and one of my constables. We came out on top, but if I'd been a little less quick, or a little less decisive, we would have probably gotten very seriously hurt, or worse. By the end of the incident I was badly out of breath and had a deep lactic burn in all of my major muscle groups, and I said to myself, as I say at the end of every confrontation that leaves me sucking wind, "I need to train harder."
I very rarely miss a workout, but they are often approached with varying levels of enthusiasm, and I am not above taking the easy way out ("I don't need to do squats today", or "Wind-sprints are for crazy people"). So, I re-evaluated my training program and made a few fiery adjustments.
Yesterday, after hammering through a workout so hard I had serious difficulty lifting my arms, I was walking on the treadmill and browsing through Youtube, trying to find some new songs to add to my gym playlist. I came across a song by a band called Skillet, and you can listen to it here.
While listening to the band, I had a strange, powerful, visceral reaction. The song struck something in me, way down in the center of my chest, like a plucked guitar string. I don't know if I was over-emotional because of the year I've had (the passing of my father, etc), the events of the past few weeks, or the idea that I could have been killed on the side of the road in Whalley at five o'clock in the morning, but I was a flooded with over-powering emotion.
The song made me think about a lot of things. It made me think about how much I miss my Dad. It made me think about my wife, and how she has stuck to me without wavering through the plethora of shit we've had thrown at us. It made me think about my friends and my coworkers (who are, in many cases, one and the same), and how we've banded together to face the storms that always keep swirling around us. As the song hammered through my earphones I didn't know if I should shout, or cry, or maybe throw shit and yell at inanimate objects. My reaction to it was so strong that I had to sit on a mat in the corner of the gym and calm down for a little while.
As I sat, I felt like there was a story in the song and if I could lay my finger upon it, then perhaps I could get a hold of myself. I sat there for twenty minutes or so, pretending to stretch, and finally gave up and went home.
Later that afternoon, I pounced on my wife the moment she walked through the door and made her sit down and listen to the song that had so deeply affected me. She is used to me doing these kinds of things, and so sat patiently, and listened to it beginning to end. When it was over, and I was raving about how awesome it was, she shrugged her shoulders and said, "yeah, it's okay."
This, obviously, was not the reaction I had expected.
Whatever the story in the song was, it certainly was not speaking to my wife. As much as I wanted to point at her and say she was wrong, that would be a huge fallacy. She wasn't wrong, she just didn't hear what I did.
This got me thinking to how subjective stories in general are, whether it be a written work or the story in a song. I've had some fantastic reactions to my work from people who have read it, and others kinda shrug their shoulders and say "it could use some work." My publisher thinks I rock (otherwise they'd not have printed my schlock), but I sent the same story to thirty other people, all of whom sent me form letters or cut/paste emails that contained different variations of, "Dear author, please piss off."
Does a negative reaction to my story make someone wrong? My initial opinion, while I'm in the throes of self-pity at being rejected, is certainly to say they are, but the truth is that they just didn't feel it the way I hoped they would.
Stories – songs, novels, poetry, spoken word – is all about emotion; you have to evoke emotion in your reader. Sometimes you're going to pluck that right chord, like the band Skillet did when I listened to their song and wanted to cry, and sometimes you're going to miss and get nothing but a bunch of noise.
If you can get your reader to experience a fraction of the emotion I did while listening to that song, then you will be doing very well, I think. But what's more important, your reader will be doing well, too.
As always, thanks for reading.

Another Day in Durango - April 9
I did wake up in the middle of the night last night but instead of writing, I sat outside. I sat in my car, because it was cold, with the sunroof open, listened to some music & looked at the stars for a while.
The iPhone couldn't capture it, or if it can, I don't know how. If I had an old school film camera, I'd have set it on a tripod & used a very long exposure to take a picture of the sky. It was so clear, with so many stars. The air was crisp & fresh. I couldn't see the stars from my place in Phoenix but that cool, quiet time in the middle of the night on the back porch was always my favorite. Last night felt similar. Really peaceful.
Yesterday was a more low-key day travel wise. I went to a coffee shop & spent a few hours reading & deleting junk mail. The first coffee went fast, so I got a 2nd one - decaf. By the time I looked up from 1/2 way through the 2nd coffee, it was almost 2pm, dinner was at 6 & I hadn't had anything but coffee.
I used an app & went to El Moro Tavern in Downtown Durango. Ordered a meat & cheese plate & since there was a Monday ginger mule special, got one of those as well. Food was delicious. Nice & light because the enchilada special for dinner was ginormous.
My other project for the day was some reorganization. The idea of taking my full carryon in & out of each place I say seems silly. I don't need that much stuff for one day. A friend had the smart idea of using a soft, open laundry basket to organize clothes. That with my compression cubes & all I need to carry in & out are toiletries, technology & a change of clothing. Much simpler. The suitcase actually has all my spices in it now & is shoved in the back of the trunk.
I'll spend today with my friend & then start traveling again tomorrow. Next stop: Dinosaur Quarry Exhibit Hall.

I'm not really sure where to start with this, so I'm starting here, and maybe someone can push me in the right direction. I'm trying to figure out how to create a device (or maybe one exists) that will allow me to use a battery such as an Anton Bauer 14.4v / 91WH battery with USB-C devices. So the input would be the battery and the output would be a USB-C female plug.
Anyone have any ideas?

When to Trade the Sharp Reversal in Corn
Corn prices still remain around their lowest prices in six years at the $3.70-3.95 a bushel range, down from their all time high of $8.49 a bushel set in August 2012.
Looking shorter term, on March 20 corn futures (ZC) moved sharply higher, completely reversing the drop seen between March 11 and March 18.
This sharp move higher creates a bullish case for corn futures, but analysis and trading aren't one in the same. While the outlook has changed for corn, it doesn't mean traders should immediately step in and buy. Remember the old adage: "Plan your trades, trade your plan."
The plan in May corn is to be patient. Let another major price wave develop before acting. This recent move higher provided key information about which direction to trade in (long), but we don't have an entry point or stop loss level yet (which will also let us know the risk/reward of the trade). Those factors will be revealed on the next pullback.
Corn presents a good potential trading opportunity for the snap-back strategy. Corn has already seen a strong move higher, erasing a prior down wave. Next, the price needs to fall, but stabilize above the March low of 367 (preferably above 375). Once the price stabilizes--exhibited by several four-hour price bars moving sideways (a consolidation)--buy when the price breaks above the high point in the consolidation.
A stop loss goes below the low of the consolidation, with an initial target near 392. With the uptrend expected to continue, a trailing stop can be implement to catch larger gains, and prevent a profitable trade from turning into a loss in the event of a reversal.
Figure 1 shows a graphical description of how this could play out. The entry point may be different than depicted; it is the conditions that create the trade, not an exact price level. If the price continues higher from here, the strategy is still, just more patience is required.
Figure 1. May Corn Futures - 4 Hour Chart and Theoretical Trade
Being patient means trades come to us. These conditions may not materialize, and thus no trade. If they do develop though, it presents an attractive reward-to-risk trading opportunity.
Timing is everything, and with this guide, you'll learn how technical analysis can help find the right time to enter and exit your futures trades. Nearly 30 explanations and examples of the most popular technical analysis tools are all in this one handy guide. It's like having a futures trading mentor at your side!

My Changeable Past
My Changeable Past
By Tony DeLorger © 2014
In my movement I pledge truth a guiding force,
always in mind, my paradigms held closely,
for I know how bereft a life can become,
lost in the trials and pain of ill-conceived ideals.
Temptations and the beguiling voices of seduction,
live within us, our conditioned past,
and ever placate the will to change,
rather follow the paths most trodden, regardless of end.
So often I have faltered and retraced my folly,
when I know full well change is best,
but we cling to the known with a desperate fear,
thinking we will survive, but nothing more.
Life stops when this path is chosen,
for how can life ensue when repeated in the known,
holding all the miracles in a glass jar,
locked away from opportunity and fruition.
Change is the ability to accept transformation and betterment,
leaving perceived security and abandoning the doubts and fears,
that we allow to plague our reasoning and vision,
to step onto unknown lands, but with infinite opportunity.
Bravery is required, to want something better,
to push the boundaries that give limits to ourselves,
and to pursue our dreams,
however unlikely they may appear in the doubt of them
Without steps into the unknown,
we are burdened and chained to a past,
that in truth may be wanting on so many levels,
and that if chosen would repeat over and over that which is unwanted.
We cannot change the past,
but we can make certain we do not repeat it,
by the limitations of our own fears,
and the false security of the devil known.
One step is all it takes to transform a stationary life.
"…in my movement…I..."
For me, this piece of writing brought an inhale of
promise that our life has a speed of its own; and
your words convey our ability to temper its rate.
For me, "Brave One": the photo, shows kindness
toward our immaturity.
Good choice!- it suits the movement I feel
your poem is communicating.
Inexperience happens at every age. The natural world; it always gives so generously to our need to understand our humanity.
Again, "…in my movement...I..."
I wonder where that next step will lead... ;-)

Reasons You Should Get Your HVAC Serviced Before Summer
Ask anyone whose air conditioning unit failed one summer in Sacramento—it can be a punishing experience. Luckily, you can call your heating or cooling repair company in the springtime to get your system serviced so that it is less likely to fail this summer. Read on for more reasons why you should get your cooling system serviced before summer.
Better Deals
Air conditioning and heating repair companies are in high demand during the summer. In the spring and fall, however, they are usually not as busy. If you want to get the best deals, it's best to arrange HVAC service during low season, when heating and cooling companies offer discounts.
Avoid HVAC System Downtime
HVAC problems usually get worse before they get better, especially during cooling season, when they are used more often. In many cases, the problems that typically cause HVAC systems to fail can be corrected before cooling season begins. To avoid having to deal with the discomfort and expense of a broken air conditioner this summer, call a repair company this spring.
Shorter Wait Time
If your HVAC system were to suddenly fail this summer, there's a chance you will have to wait several hours or even days for a service technician to take care of the problem. After all, the summertime is usually when cooling systems experience problems, making demand for HVAC service and repair quite high.
Better Scheduling
Sometimes the only appointments that are available in the summertime are very early in the morning, or in the afternoon when most people are at work. If you do not want HVAC service to mess up your day, schedule service before summer so you can choose from a wider variety of appointments.
For your HVAC repair and service needs, call Ace Plumbing of Sacramento at (916) 455-4548. We have more than 40 years of experience and a solid reputation for customer service to offer you. For more information, please visit our website.
Understanding Hydro-Jetting
If you have a blocked line that doesn't respond to chemicals, the most effective way to clear it is a hydro-jetting service. Using heavy-duty power nozzles, hydro-jet systems operate at 4,000 PSI to blast through tough blockages caused by toilet paper, oils, chemicals, debris, and other types of buildup. Many plumbing companies will use video inspection technology to target the exact location of the clog so that the hydro-jetting service more effective. In addition to clearing pipe blockages, hydro-jetting greatly improves water flow. This is why hydro-jetting is a recommended plumbing maintenance service for restaurants and other businesses that frequently accumulate debris such as grease in the lines. It's also a good service to have done if you want to clear stubborn plumbing clogs before putting your home on the market.
If you have a clog problem, call Ace Plumbing at (916) 455-4548 for a hydro-jetting service. Visit our website to explore all of the plumbing services we have been offering our customers in Sacramento for over 40 years.
Could You Have a Gas Leak in Your Home?
Did you know that natural gas is an odorless, colorless gas? The smell that most people associate with natural gas is actually a chemical that is added to the gas to make gas leaks easier to detect. If you smell a strong, rotten egg-like smell in your home, open up the windows in your home to let fresh air in, and then look for the source of the possible gas leak. For tips that will help you locate a gas leak in your home, watch the video clip.
If you suspect a gas leak in your home, Ace Plumbing has technicians available 24/7 to help you identify and stop the leak. Call us at (916) 455-4548 to speak with a gas line repair specialist. For more information about the plumbing services we offer, head to our website.
Avoid These Common Causes of Toilet Clogs
A clogged toilet is one of the most common reasons why people call a plumber. Fortunately, many toilet clogs can actually be prevented if you avoid flushing items that are widely, yet incorrectly, thought to be dissolvable. Read below for a list of the most common causes of toilet clogs.
Toilet Paper
Many plumbing systems and toilets can handle toilet paper, but only certain types. If your toilet is getting clogged by toilet paper, you may want to switch to single-ply toilet paper. Multiple-ply toilet paper and other types of strong or thick toilet paper will not dissolve easily, and can result in a blocked toilet.
Other Paper Products
Tissues such as Kleenex that are not designed to be put in the toilet are oftentimes responsible for toilet clogs. Never put paper towels, sanitary wipes, face wipes, dryer sheets, toilet-bowl cleaning pads, or floor-cleaning pads in the toilet, even if they are advertised as flushable—they are not designed to dissolve easily, and frequently cause blockage.
Hygiene Products
"Flushable" diapers, baby wipes, and other baby hygiene products are actually one of the most common causes of toilet clogs . Over time, dental floss can even cause a blocked toilet. Other personal products such as Q-tips, cotton balls, condoms, and feminine hygiene products should be put in the trash rather than the toilet.
Other Products
Cigarettes don't break down and will cause a serious clog, so snuff them and throw them in the trash instead. Many people also throw hair in the trash, which will clog the toilet just like it clogs the shower drain.
Is your toilet clogged, leaking, or otherwise not functioning properly? If so, contact the plumbing experts at Ace Plumbing, where we have more than 40 years of experience serving Sacramento. Call us at (916) 455-4548 or visit our website to learn more about the plumbing services we offer.
When to Replace Your Existing HVAC System
Modern air conditioning and heating were considered a luxury in Northern California until just a few decades ago. Today, they are commonplace in the Sacramento area.
Heating and cooling systems are designed to last for a decade, give or take a few years. Even if it has been well maintained, a heating or cooling system that reaches this age will likely need to be replaced. The difference in operational efficiency between many older HVAC systems and the newest ENERGY STAR-qualified models is great enough that it makes sense for homeowners to upgrade even before their HVAC systems break down.
If you find it difficult to control the temperature in your home, if your heating or cooling system is making a lot of noise, or if your energy bills have risen dramatically, it may be time for you to upgrade your HVAC system. To consult an experienced plumbing and heating repair professional about your energy-efficient upgrade options, contact Ace Plumbing in Sacramento at (916) 455-4548.

Depression Quotes, Sayings about being depressed
I'll never forget how the depression and loneliness felt good and bad at the same time. Still does.
– Henry Rollins
Depression is feeling dead but not being able to die.
Please don't ask me what's wrong because I don't know the answer either.
Almost everyone is overconfident- – except the people who are depressed, and they tend to be realists.
– Joseph T. Hallinan
What doesn't kill you makes you wish you were dead.
What doesn't destroy you leaves you broken instead
Depression: Knowing when you gave your all for that person and all you can do is think of the 'wonderful' moments spent forgetting the hard times and forgiving the ones who REALLY broke your heart, embracing the ones who try to fix it, and finding the one who wants to heal it…but as life goes on you find it harder to forgive than forget, hold on than to let go, love what you hated and hate what you loved…and all you think about is what went wrong? Was it you, or him, chose life or death, love or hate…It's never the same.
Noble deeds and hot baths are the best cures for depression.
– Dodie Smith
In a strange way, I had fallen in love with my depression.
There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds.
– Laurell K. Hamilton
Perhaps depression is caused by asking oneself too many unanswerable questions.
– Miriam Toews
Depression is nourished by a lifetime of ungrieved and unforgiven hurts
– Penelope Sweet
Cause I swear that I'm dying, slowly but its happening.
– Conor Oberst
All it takes is a beautiful smile to hide an injured soul and they will never notice how broken you really are.
Depression is having the feeling of someone whispering in your ear and telling you that you are worthless. Every time you make a mistake, you keep getting reminded of it; it's never painless. From these mistakes, it makes you reckless. Now you ask yourself, is my life priceless or worthless?
Laying in your bed and closing your eyes can be a perilous thing. Your mind is running, and circumstance that you don't want to recall appear. You try to fall asleep, but the thoughts abstain you from sleeping. It's like having a ringing noise resonate through your entire mind. You want to shut it off, but you can't. Now you are just laying there with no hope in mind.
Creative people are more prone to depression.
– Adam Ant
Depression is when you have lots of love, but no one's taking.
Depression is like being lost at sea, there is nothing in sight yet you still keep swimming not to live but to survive, forever swimming looking for some one, some thing to hold on too, you finally reach an island in sight just as the sun arises you awake and it is a new day and you find yourself swimming yet again forever searching for that something burdened by the brief moment of false happiness of having found that something, someone, to hold on to, to save you of your forever search called life.
I say there're no depressed words just depressed minds.
"I'm just tired" I answered.
Yeah tired of life, disappointment, feeling like I'm not worth your time or anyone's else. But I'm just tired of life. I thought silently.
I find nothing more depressing than optimism.
– Paul Fussell
Yeah. She's smiling. But don't let that fool you. Look in her eyes. She's breaking inside.
Depression is different for every person. It's a disease that you can't get rid of. It's staring at the ceiling at 4:00 in the morning with your eyes burning not even trying to find motivation to close them. It's you trying to go threw everyday trying so hard not to cry every time you're reminded of that one thing that made you hurt so much.
Depression is like holding a gun and pointing it at your own head, and everyday is a struggle to not pull the damn trigger.
I guess I don't really remember when my depression set in but I do remember when it started getting hard to smile.
I can feel the hurt. There's something good about it. Mostly it makes me stop remembering.
– Albert Borris
My depression hurts, it hurts physically and mentally. I don't tell anyone this, I don't tell them how I feel or what I want, because I know how they will react. They will feel bad, or upset, they will say "I'm sorry" or "It's okay", and I done want that. I don't want them to care, but at the same time I do. I don't want them to feel bad because it just makes me feel worse that they are thinking about my well being instead of their own.
I feel guilty about it. And it hurts everywhere, not just my chest, but my stomach, legs, arms, literally everything is in pain. I don't remember when it started or when it will end but it has stopped me from doing many things. Being around my family or hanging out with my friends.
I don't like talking about it, in fact I never have until this. I always push my feelings down until I'm alone, where I can feel free to let the out. I used to burn myself, every single night. But I stopped because my friend didn't want me to. I used to smoke, but I stopped cause my family wanted me to. I still drink though. It's all I have left that keeps me distracted from what I'm feeling. It numbs it in a sense.
Please, if you are reading this, don't feel bad, you don't need to. I'm just venting, I suppose I am fine though, so please, just read it, hear my story. Help people who actually need it. I promise I'm fine.
People say that it's normal for adults and teens to have depression and they think its just sadness or crying all the time, but its not that at all it's waking up everyday and wondering to yourself who am I why am I even here; what is even my goal in life and not knowing who you are. I have it for years and I don't know my own strength or who I am anymore. I have no emotion just numbness in my heart and I don't know what to do anymore. It feels like nobody can help.
Everyone is depressed, some are just better at hiding it than others.
Would you like to know how I feel?
Have you ever had a nightmare in which you're so scared that you try and scream so loud for someone to save you, but not a sound comes out of your lips?
That's how I feel everyday, all day.
I need a huge non-judgmental, sincere, no strings attached, no questions asked, from someone, anyone. Hug !! But I don't want to ask for it, but I'm praying so hard that you will do it on your own.

Nice ties Jim. I am now in Downeast Maine, even further north than Dublin, NH!
I have some interesting things to try also, once I dredge them out from what ever box they are in!
I'll miss your posts for sure! Come back when you're ready and we'll all benefit!
Thanks for all the posts!
So simple even I can tie it!
Thanks Rick, I'll get my boxed up and sent to them.
I have many flies that were donated to my TU Chapter. Streamers, dries, wets. Let me know if these would help.
One of my big time favorites!
Out of curiosity checked one of Scott P's latest picture posts. The file is a JPEG. Maybe saving it that way will do the trick.
Huh, well let me think, tough these days. My only other thought at the moment, well two. Try saving the pic as a PDF file, then uploading it. I am assuming you save the pic after rotation.
When you have the picture on the computer, you might be able to change the orientation by rotating the view and then saving it. Call up the pic and see if in the menu bar at the top there is a box...
Great video and music is also great!
I like it!
Got it! Thanks Rick!
Hi all,
We are planning a move to Addison, ME, in late July/early August. I'll be near the coast for the first time in my life! Anyone have suggestions on where to try to fish from the beach? ...
Thanks Scott, another great looking fly!
THANKS!!! I always have trouble with this!
Looks great to me!
Thanks Dave, definite inspiration for me to try those on my 8 and 9 was!
I care and read and try to comment. I will try, I'll be a away for a week, to post some of my efforts.
I guess YouTube has taken a lot of the wind out of these sails.
M ime
Nice setup. Your pics always look great!
AHA! Thanks Dave! I've been wondering about articulated flies and this may push me to the edge to try them!
I appreciate the link.
I never had the opportunity to meet her, but felt her presence all over here.
God speed and look down at us from time to time.
Okay Dave, how did you do the Gamechanger articulation? I see the segments, did you use chenille and then the yarn balls to make the segments?
Great looking flies and I love the slider/popper types...
Hi Scott,
Please PM me your address. I have three spools of Depth Ray in possible matching colors, but for the life of me I can't get the pic on!!!
You know Scott, I may just have some Danville Depth Ray fire orange! I'll check.
Good for you Scott!

High blood pressure (hypertension) puts strain on the blood vessels and the heart, and over time this extra pressure increases your risk of heart attack or stroke.
High blood pressure can also cause heart and kidney disease and is closely linked to some forms of dementia.
High blood pressure usually has no obvious signs or symptoms and for this reason is often referred to as 'The Silent Killer', and although some people with high blood pressure complain of headaches the only way to be sure is to have your blood pressure measured by your GP.
"Your heart pumps blood around your body to deliver energy and oxygen. A certain amount of pressure in your blood vessels is needed to do this. However, if there is too much pressure in your blood vessels, it puts extra strain on your arteries and heart, which can lead to serious conditions such as heart attack, heart failure, kidney disease, stroke or dementia.
Over 5 million people in England are unaware they have high blood pressure, yet it affects more than 1 in 4 adults." - Source NHS.uk
Although there is a lack of certainty about the causes of high blood pressurelifestyle certainly plays a major role.
You are more likely to be at risk if you:
- are overweight
- are not active enough
- eat too much salt
- drink too much alcohol
- smoke
- drink too much coffee or other caffeine based drinks
You can help yourself by making lifestyle changes that will help you to lower your blood pressure and so lower your risk of heart attack or stroke.
And what if you know all this and that is making matters worse because you just can't change?
That is where Hypnotherapy can help, it can take away the pressure to change by working with the subconscious to alter lifestyle in a gentle progressive way, a way that feels comfortable and is easy.
Hypnotherapy is proven effective for weight loss, increasing motivation, changing bad habits, giving up alcohol, stopping smoking, and getting clearer on your health and lifestyle goals. Hypnosis is effective because it works with your subconscious, as well as your conscious mind, quite often the trick is changing how we deal with pressure in general that can make all the difference.
If you suffer from high blood pressure or need help making any of the lifestyle changes listed above please call; 07976 629098 now for an informal chat about how hypnosis and hypnotherapy can help you.

Brad Ogbonna, Photographer/
Brad Ogbonna: I remember buying my first NYLON Magazine at the Walgreens in River Falls, Wisconsin in 2007 — my sophomore year of college. River Falls was a fun little college town nestled in a rural area outside of the Twin Cities. I really liked it there, but at the same time I felt so detached from my surroundings and had my eyes set on things happening in bigger cities like NYC, London, Los Angeles, etc...Especially the pockets of counter-culture starting to emerge.
In my free time I would check out blogs from people in bigger cities as an escape and for inspiration. There was this great one I particularly enjoyed called "The Skullset" by this photographer Jack Siegel. I was always drawn to the tangible, so every month I would run to Walgreens to peruse their magazine aisle, and flip through everything they had to offer. I remember coming across a magazine called NYLON that I hadn't noticed before. The artwork on the cover stood out and felt so much different than the magazines next to it like Elle, Glamour, Vogue, GQ, and I even recognized Cory Kennedy on the cover from the Skullset blog. I was so excited that I immediately spent $5 on it, which may not seem like a significant amount, but at the time I was so broke I was literally splitting $5 footlongs with my roommate.
The articles were generally geared to young women, but I was really drawn to the aesthetic and the imagery. The photos looked like the ones I'd seen on my favorite blogs and they covered a lot of unique people from cities all around the world. I don't remember who shot the cover, but I still have this copy and almost each one thereafter up until 2009, stored at my mom's house in Minnesota.
I feel like my own work isn't that much different than a lot of the stuff I loved back then. Similar aesthetic but hopefully with my own twist. I try to focus more on the people that shape my world and what it looks like today.

With about 2% of Americans practicing a plant-based diet, it's no wonder many feel making healthier changes don't relate to their lives. Most people don't even know anyone practicing a plant-based lifestyle.
I've decided to start a series to spotlight past and present brown vegans (famous and non-famous), who have made a change in their lives for health and/or ethical reasons. Enjoy!

Tullamore DEW approached us with a brief to roll out their new branding by utilising brand assets and materials to create disruptive and eye-catching installations that would be instagram worthy and reflect the modernity and youthfulness of the new brand whilst staying true to the Tullamore DEW Heritage.
This installation is the first of 7 to be rolled out across locations in Dublin, Galway and Tullamore in Offaly.
The DJ Booth in 1520 is a central aspect of the bar with singers and bands also regularly performing in front of it.
The challenge was to seamlessly integrate the updated branded DJ booth into the existing surroundings of 1520 Bar.
The result was a vertical Tullamore DEW takeover that extends into the cubby of the original stone wall and ends with a re-upholstered gold leather seat - a Tullamore DEW brand material and colour.
