So I'm supposed to talk about myself in the 3rd person… creepy… Bloody Rich, [aka Richard Hutchins] is a drummer/percussionist in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn. His first instrument was violin, which he played for over 4 years as a member of his school orchestra. He studied violin, piano, & recorder at the Settlement Music School in Philadelphia, and took private violin & theory lessons until around age 10.
Around age 12, he became interested in creating his own music. Richard took guitar lessons and then a few bass lessons, and spent all his free time jamming with his friends. At one jam, Richard sat down at a drum kit that belonged to the singer's brother, & started playing a beat & simple rolls. From that moment on, Richard knew his purpose in life was to play drums.
Richard has performed with many bands over the last 40 years, including Ruin…, Live Skull, Of Cabbages and Kings, Lubricated Goat, and the Hungry March Band.
Besides PHIDEAUX, Richard currently performs with ART GRAY NOIZZ QUINTET, SHILPA RAY, and various other bands around New York.

Sometimes, for self assessment purposes I ask my self "Am I happy?"
I feel satisfied but not completely, like there's something still missing.
I feel like shaking things up a bit and seeing where it all settles.
I had a date with Micheal on Friday night. I have always been truthful with him so I told him I was bored with our relationship. Although I feel like he's my best friend, we've hit a plateau and nothing is exciting anymore. He reacted by running outside nude, his logic being if that didn't excite or at the very least amuse me, nothing would. We were both drunk and I was amused.
On Saturday I saw Gino. It was a much anticipated evening that I had planned for the sole purpose of releasing my aggression.
I've always wanted to try BDSM, being so passive aggressive in my day to day life leaves me few opportunities to fully unleash, so when I do it can be frightening. Given our tumultuous past I decided the best way for me to get over being hurt by him(and possibly move on indefinitely) was to hurt him physically. I've thought about burning his car and house down but insurance covers that stuff and he'd upgrade. Retaining power during sexual roleplay by removing his sense of control was the second best option.
I went to his place after dinner with my family, during which we sent dirty texts back and forth. I gave him instructions to take a shower and be naked in his bed when I got there. And he was. I started kissing the droplets at the base of his neck and worked my way down, until I reach the plump crease at the base of his spine. The oh so lovely ass I've always admired. I spread his cheeks and dove in, rimming and darting my tongue in and out. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. But certainly not my favorite thing to do. I knew it would make his head spin and that was my motivation.
Once done, I bound his hands together with a black silk scarf.
"Turn over" I demanded. And he did.
I kissed his forehead, then his lips to give him a taste of his own ass.
I grabbed his nipples tightly and proceeded to give his the best blow job of his life. Alternating my lips on his dick with my finger in his ass I circled round and round until he moaned "I'm coming!". Then I took him all the way into my mouth and past my throat. I felt him come hard. My job was done. I asked if I could spend the night and left promptly at 7am.
Next time won't be so tame. I have all sorts of delicious pain in mind for him. He enjoyed being tied up so my assumption is that he will be open to more intense bdsm.
I suppose it's a possiblility that intimacy without deviances makes me uncomfortable. I can't maintain a straight relationship with Gino. I'm always thinking of more exciting sexual adventures to delve into with him. Maybe I'm just attracted to him sexually, because if there was an emotional bond I would want him to want me... Things are slightly confusing at the moment. Hormones perhaps? I'll write about him at a more lucid moment.
…and like myself again. It feels good to be back but where that is, who knows who cares I have done a lot of pretentious self-reflection self love self c...

Nettle leaf has been used in herbal remedies or solely as a single remedy for a long time – and there seems to be a lot of information on hair growth and nettle leaf extract correlation – but very few websites actually talk about how it actually works; infact, no website we have seen even referred to why it helps, other than possible DHT blocking.
Yes, there is a lot of evidence stating it blocks DHT, or helps reduce it and create healthy levels of hormones in the body, but new studies are now suggesting that it does this differently than previously thought.
It seems that, when Nettle leaf extract is consumed regularly, it helps cleanse and detoxify the Liver, and then, Kidneys over time.
This is significant – as we already know that the Liver is in charge of cleaning the body from toxins; this means from toxins we eat, but also toxins we create internally, such as excess hormones which need to be removed and no longer required. (Please note, definition of a toxin is, anything that the body is no longer able to handle, generally anything in excess).
We already discussed how detox is important for youthful looks and thicker hair in our previous article here but we did not talk about to what extent it is, and how to actually detox properly; and the answer is, nettle leaf extract (in liquid form).
How do you take Nettle leaf extract?
This can be taken 2 teaspoons everyday, diluted in warm water (to evaporate the ethanol). This will work over a longer period of time, but people have seen results within days of taking it in their mood and elevated levels of energy (due to detox, allowing higher capacity of the liver to function).

My fantastic colleague and JMU professor of flute, Dr. Beth Chandler, has this phrase posted on the outside of her door for all to see. I pass by Dr. Chandler's office multiple times each day and everyday I look at that sign. How can any student walking our hallway not notice that glorious sign? You know, that's really all anyone needs to think about when preparing for his or her lesson.
If you're thinking, "Geez, I just don't know what Dr. Carrillo wants from me" I would say, consult that sign.
- Do you feel like you could have prepared better? (Consult sign)
- Do you feel like you really should have looked up all the words you didn't know on your solo or etude? (Consult sign)
- Do you feel guilty for not having given the phrasing your all? (Consult sign)
One of the most important things a teacher can do is demonstrate. If you can demonstrate excellent phrasing, a warm sound, beautiful musicianship, and a deep love for music from the podium on your instrument you will be amazed how engaged your students will become. There is no need to tell your students what good phrasing is, pick up your trumpet and play the line for your alto saxophones. Want to get your low brass players hooked on Rochut? No problem, pick up the book and play one for them all the while demonstrating beautiful phrasing and your love of music. This, of course, will require you to be able to transpose and as we all know, transposition isn't just for those orchestral folks. So no more complaining about transposition industry and education majors : ) When I was in Walker Junior High School Band (er.... in 1986) in lovely La Palma, CA I remember our teacher, Mr. Art May, constantly demonstrating. He showed us how music should be played. He didn't have to say, "hey kids, you should love playing music." It was written all over his face and came out of the end of his horn when he played. That was over 30 years ago and I remember it as clearly as if it were yesterday.
When you prepare an etude for your lesson, I want to imagine as if you are about to perform it for the students in your band. What would they think about your performance? One day very soon you may find yourself in a position of great responsibility. And, by gosh, one of my own kids may be in your band : )
Think for a moment about some of the characteristics you would want in your students… You may want them to be:
- Thoughtful
- Diligent
- Competent
- Engaged
- Respectful of the music
- Courteous
- Self-motivated
- Discriminating in their musical assessment
To paraphrase one of my mentors, Dr. Bob Duke, he might say your students will either be thoughtful, or they won't. Your students will either be diligent, or they won't. Your students will either be engaged, or they won't. They will learn by what you make them do. What will you demand of your students and what will you ask them to do? Do you demand the same of yourself?

Politics and the Church
Carolyn Swiszcz
American culture teaches that politics is fundamentally about partisanship. Therefore, churches often fall into one of two traps—avoiding politics entirely, or pledging allegiance to a particular issue or party.
Both responses reflect a poor understanding of the political nature of the church itself. What Christians cannot escape is that the Church we read about in Scripture is in fact deeply, inherently, and inescapably political. Jesus' ministry began with the proclamation of the good news of a coming kingdom, and ended with his execution at the hands of an empire threatened by his own quietly confident claim to kingship. Jesus' life was about inaugurating a new kingdom, an alternative political order, to be embodied in the world by his followers. As theologian N.T. Wright puts it in his book How God Became King, "Jesus' launch of the kingdom—God's worldwide sovereignty on earth as it is in heaven—is the central aim of his mission, the thing for which he lived and died…." This is a different sort of king—and a different form of politics—but it is unmistakably political.
Politics is really about the authority we recognize, the citizenship we claim, and the values to which we hold as we pursue a vision of the common good with and for our neighbors. And like the political powers of this world, Jesus claimed authority, demanded allegiance, and offered a citizenship that relativizes his followers' relationship to other political orders. If the Church is an inherently political body—a community defined by its allegiance to the authority of the king, its citizenship in a new world, and its call to pursue a new way of life with and for its neighbors—then perhaps its call is not merely to run from the language and activity of politics. Maybe the Church's call is something deeper: to embody and witness to a different type of politics.
What does it mean for the Church to be political? How should the Church make decisions about when to engage or avoid politics? And what visions of politics are communicated by the actual practices of congregations—their lived theologies?
Churches all over the country embody this new political imagination every day, whether they realize it or not. Take Ebenezer Baptist in Atlanta, which established partnerships with Catholic Charities USA, local government, and secular nonprofits to serve its inner-city neighbors. Or First & Franklin Presbyterian in Baltimore, whose congregation reads aloud the names of people killed in combat in Iraq and Afghanistan—from both sides of the conflict. Or Saddleback Church in California, whose medical missionaries were so effective that they were asked to testify before Congress about global healthcare strategy. These actions may not seem political in the way that we have been taught to understand that word, but each demonstrates a way that churches allow their allegiance to Christ's mission to break down dividing walls and offer a vision of the kingdom to their congregation, their neighbors, and the world.
These ordinary practices (and many others like them) show that the Church's response to an overly partisan public arena need not be to join a camp, nor to abandon politics altogether, but to orient its allegiance toward the only political reality that transcends parties and nations, tribes and tongues, cultures and generations. The Church can learn to understand politics not fundamentally as divisive, but as a framework that unites believers in allegiance to a common king and kingdom. And maybe—just maybe—churches that take this posture could find greater unity with people who do not share their ultimate allegiance, by identifying and pursuing common loves with and for them.
Many American churches are understandably ambivalent about calling their everyday practices "political." But claiming their practices—indeed, their very communal identity—as deeply political might help churches more faithfully integrate their goals of spiritual formation and social transformation, and thereby witness to a world weary of politics that an alternative, even redeemed, political vision is possible. A church that is bed-rock secure in its political identity is free to engage controversial issues all over the political spectrum without the crippling fear of being pigeonholed as "conservative" or "liberal."
This identity will then inform regularly performed practices of worship and mission, shaping members' lives and their beliefs about the nature of God, God's kingdom, and their role in it. N. T. Wright argues that "…practices aren't like prescribed medicine that will cure you whether or not you understand how it works … Our conscious mind and heart need to understand, ponder, and consciously choose the patterns of life that these practices are supposed to produce in us and through us."
Cultivating a political identity rooted first in Christ—one that pursues compassion for the poor, justice for the oppressed, and protection for the weak as an expression of faith in and allegiance to Christ—might free Christians to engage in politics with a renewed spirit, confident in the knowledge that their hope is not in candidates, parties, or laws, but in the God we believe is making all things new. As missionary theologian Lesslie Newbigin writes in Signs Amid the Rubble: The Purposes of God in Human History: "Christians [ought] to be the strength of every good movement of political and social effort, because we have no need either of blind optimism or of despair." For the Church, perhaps healthy political engagement is not about staking out real estate on the American political spectrum, nor about retreating to "safety" behind feigned political neutrality, but about orienting allegiance to Jesus before any nation or party, claiming and prioritizing a common citizenship with Christians around the world, and working, humbly and persistently, to love and serve our neighbors.

Hey everyone, since I'm a lazy man and can't rig and model for shit, I'm just gonna upload some sound stuff from Star Wars, why I'm even typing this out when I've already released a Star Wars sounds pack is beyond me, holy shit look at the time, why am I not in bed.
Anyways, this is the dialogue and various sounds that Master Kyle Katarn makes in Jedi ACADEMY. I don't have Outcast installed as I'm aware that has more dialogue because he's, well you know, the main character of that game. You'll find dialogue from cutscenes, grunts and screams from battle, etc.

Released by Creators, Director/Animator Fezz Stenton takes you on a somnambulist walk in this meditative and ghostly VR music video, "Still Awake" by Pick A Piper, a Toronto-based collaborative by Brad Weber.
Inspired by sleep paralysis, and loss of control, "Still Awake," the first song on Weber's Distance album, Stenton creates a dreamer's abstract account between different stages of sleep, the disturbances and the inert mania that accompany the phenomenon.
A weightless, anxious-ridden reverie—characterized by glitchy visuals, turns into a dreamer's final surrender. A look and overall style made possible by Stenton's use of practical projection mapping techniques inside a game engine.
Also available on Samsung VR.

In present times when building homes ,we need to consider many things than just plain comfort.As building a house is once in lifetime,we must keep in mind how to manage the scarce resources around us.The idea is to build environment friendly homes,keeping in mind maximum utility of resources.Today a building design can be custom built on scientific basis for optimum energy saving and human comfort.
An ideal solution in designing such passive homes requires a careful study of the solar path,much depending on the geographical location,besides integration of energy and heating requirements.The basic principle is to meet external energy requirement from solar panels and take care of air circulation, both in and out of the house through central heat exchangers to minimize on energy consumption.Further heat gain/loss through walls, doors and windows can be curtailed by proper glazing and insulation.Prudent selection of exterior colors combined with energy efficient landscaping materials including use of plenty natural green can give us the environment remedy for our homes.
One need not worry about high construction costs for such houses as they will be offset through specially pre-designed computer models for avoiding costly construction experiments coupled with nominal maintenance required over the long run.

Former state university employee Sternstein paid in $5K to pension fund, could collect $112K in retirement
Over 30 years of retirement, Sternstein would collect as much as $112,468, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Chambana Sun.
The projection assumes Sternstein received $2,364 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 3 years of retirement, Sternstein will have already received $7,307 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the state pension fund.

Alfred Mann's Signature Dish
Kale Oil & Garlic w/ White Bean
4oz Olive Oil
2oz Whole Butter
1 medium bulb of Garlic peeled and shaved
1/2 tsp. Crushed Pepper
1 tsp Kosher Salt
½ tsp Cracked Black Pepper
1 Cup Cannellini Beans (white kidney beans) strained
3lb Fresh Kale
2oz Whole Butter
1 medium bulb of Garlic peeled and shaved
1/2 tsp. Crushed Pepper
1 tsp Kosher Salt
½ tsp Cracked Black Pepper
1 Cup Cannellini Beans (white kidney beans) strained
3lb Fresh Kale
Heat Sauté Pan over medium heat. Add olive oil, garlic, crushed pepper, salt and pepper. When garlic is slightly brown, add beans and sauté for a few minutes. Add kale and sauté until soft. Deglaze with chicken broth or spring water. Allow to simmer for 8-10 minutes then serve.
Serves 6 to 8
~ Health Benefits of Kale ~
Kale is one of the healthiest vegetables you can eat. Just one cup of kale contains only 33 calories and 9% of the daily value of calcium, 206% of vitamin A, 134% of vitamin C, and a whopping 684% of vitamin K. It is also a good source of minerals copper, potassium, iron, manganese, and phosphorus.
Kale's health benefits are primarily linked to the high concentration and excellent source of antioxidant vitamins A, C, and K. Carotenoids and flavonoids are the specific types of antioxidants associated with many of the anti-cancer health benefits. Kale is also rich in the eye-health promoting lutein and zeaxanthin compounds. Beyond antioxidants, the fiber content of kale binds bile acids and helps lower blood cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease, especially when kale is cooked instead of raw.
Kale is super-rich in Vitamin K. Eating a diet that is rich in Vitamin K can reduce your overall risk of developing or dying from cancer. Vitamin K is abundant in kale and can also be found in parsley, spinach, collard greens and cheese.
Vitamin K is necessary for the proper bodily functions including normal blood clotting, antioxidant activity and bone health. But too much of a good thing can be bad for you. Too much of Vitamin K can pose a problem in some. For example, if you take anticoagulants, otherwise known as "blood thinners", kale should be avoided because of the high level of Vitamin K that may interfere with the drugs.
Some early research studies in humans have suggested possible cardiovascular benefits of garlic. Many studies found garlic supplementation reduced accumulation of cholesterol on the vascular walls of humans. Another study had similar results with garlic supplementation significantly reducing aortic plaque deposits of cholesterol-fed rabbits.
Garlic is also alleged to help regulate blood sugar levels. Regular and prolonged use of therapeutic amounts of aged garlic extracts lower blood homocysteine levels and has been shown to prevent some complications of diabetes mellitus. People taking insulin should not consume medicinal amounts of garlic without consulting a physician.
Garlic cloves are used as a remedy for infections (especially chest problems), digestive disorders, and fungal infections such as thrush. Garlic can be used as a disinfectant because of its bacteriostatic and bactericidal properties. Garlic has been found to enhance thiamin absorption, and therefore reduces the likelihood for developing the thiamin deficiency.
~ Health Benefits of Olive Oil ~
The main type of fat found in all kinds of olive oil is monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs). MUFAs are actually considered a healthy dietary fat. If your diet replaces saturated and trans fats with unsaturated fats such as MUFAs and polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs), you may gain certain health benefits. MUFAs and PUFAs may help lower your risk of heart disease by improving related risk factors. For instance, MUFAs have been found to lower your total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. MUFAs may also help normalize blood clotting. And some research shows that MUFAs may also benefit insulin levels and blood sugar control, which can be especially helpful if you have type 2 diabetes.
But even healthier fats like olive oil are high in calories, so use them only in moderation. Choose MUFA-rich foods such as olive oil in place of other fatty foods, particularly butter and stick margarine, not in addition to them. And remember that you can't make unhealthy foods healthier simply by adding olive oil to them.
~ Health Benefits of White Navy Beans ~
Navy beans, or white beans, have a high protein content that can serve as an alternative to meat in your diets. Each 1/2 cup of cooked beans contains 7.5 grams of protein per cup. While this protein is incomplete, missing 1 or more amino acids you need in your diet, a well-rounded diet will protect you against an amino acid deficiency. Navy beans are also low in fat with less than 1 gram per serving.
Navy beans are also extremely high in fiber. A single serving of cooked navy beans contains 9.6 grams of fiber, meeting the 38 percent of your daily value for fiber. The fiber in the navy beans offers a number of health benefits. Fiber in food adds bulk to stool, improving bowel movements and alleviating constipation. Fiber can also help lower blood cholesterol levels, improving heart-health. Fiber also takes your body longer to digest, helping to control hunger and aiding in weight management. In addition, people with higher intakes of fiber have lower rates of diabetes.
They are also on the Low Glycemic Index. This index ranks how food effects one's blood sugar levels. Foods with a low glycemic index, less than or equal to 55, only cause a small rise in blood sugar, while foods with a high glycemic index, greater than 70, cause a more rapid rise in blood sugar. The glycemic index is most commonly used by people with diabetes to aid in blood sugar control. But including more low glycemic index foods in your diet may lower your risk of heart disease and diabetes, and also aid in weight control, according to the Harvard School of Public Health. Navy beans have a low glycemic ranking of 31.

HAVING to negotiate a must-win Euro 2020 qualifier against Cyprus in his first match as Scotland manager was far from ideal for Steve Clarke.
The flaws in his team's performance at Hampden on Saturday evening, and there were a few, can be excused given that he only had five days to work with his new players in the build-up to the crucial Group I fixture. Recording a win was the most important thing and three points were duly delivered.
Yet, his opening game in charge of his country will be a breeze in comparison with his second outing – a daunting encounter with Belgium in the King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels tomorrow evening.
Clarke is adamant Scotland can take something from the meeting with opponents who finished third at the Russia 2018 finals last year and currently occupy top spot in the FIFA world rankings.
Adopting that kind of positive approach to a difficult away game certainly enabled Kilmarnock to compete with Celtic at Parkhead and Rangers at Ibrox during his time at Rugby Park. But can it work with Scotland? Or is his optimism misplaced?
Here we look at five things Andy Robertson and his team mates can take heart from going into the showdown.
Dropping Scott Bain was a huge call by Clarke. Bain has been in exceptional form for Celtic in the second half of the season. His displays for Scotland against Kazakhstan and San Marino were also fine.
Marshall's last start for his country before the weekend had been in the Russia 2018 qualifier against Slovakia way back in the October of 2016 when he had shipped three goals in a 3-0 defeat.
But the logic behind his reinstatement, as well as the decision to play Charlie Mulgrew ahead of John Souttar, was sound. The head coach felt the duo's experience would be invaluable and so it proved. Both men acquitted themselves well.
Marshall had a fair bit to do. He denied Nicholas Ioannou and Pieros Sotiriou in the first-half and then Matija Spoljaric and Antreas Makris in the second. He could not be faulted for the late goal his side conceded.
The Hull City man, who has been linked with a summer move to Champions League winners Liverpool, will retain his place against Belgium.
The Liverpool defender may have become one of the best left backs in world football since moving to Anfield two years ago. But his displays for Scotland since have often left much to be desired. He has struggled to replicate his club form with his country.
That could be down to not having the same quality of player around about him or it might be due to the three man back line that McLeish experimented with. Whatever the reason, the 25-year-old frequently disappointed.
But on Saturday evening he was at his very best. He dovetailed beautifully with Ryan Fraser ahead of him, got upfield far more often and opened the scoring with a stunning long-range strike after an hour.
Yes, he was at fault for the Cyprus goal. It was, though, hard to be overly critical of his showing. If this is how good he is after just three days under Clarke then what can we expect going forward?
The former Newcastle United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Aston Villa assistant admitted before the Cyprus game that he was minded to tweak his starting line-up for the Belgium match.
Freshening up his XI for the final game of the 2018/19 campaign should ensure fatigue doesn't result in a subdued and substandard showing. Stuart Armstrong, Oliver Burke, Tom Cairney, Scott McTominay and John Souttar could all come in.
The way Scotland ground down resilient rivals and responded to conceding a late goal showed the sort of desire and togetherness that Clarke successfully fostered in his squad at Kilmarnock.
The national team face a torrid evening against the best international side on the planet tomorrow. They will need those qualities in abundance to take something from the 90 minutes.
This country is never better than when they have been written off. It is asking a lot for them to take even a point against the section favourites and leaders. There will, though, be no shortage of effort.
Despite his delight at the victory over Cyprus, the Scotland manager acknowledged there was room for improvement. His team lacked ruthlessness in the final third. In midfield their play was often disjointed. They gifted the visitors way too many chances at the back and almost paid a heavy price.
But the 55-year-old immediately vowed to address why the right side of his side had been less effective than the left, identify who was at fault for the goal and rest those he felt had lacked energy at the end of a long and wearying campaign.
The beginning of his reign augurs well for the future.

Assurance, Day 6
Happy Monday! Over the weekend, I sent out an email to all of my blog subscribers with a few recommendations and resources to accompany our Assurance study. You can check it out here...and if you aren't subscribed yet, take a minute and subscribe below!
Scripture: Joshua 1:9
The promise: "'This is my command – be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.'"
Observation: Following the death of Moses, God called Joshua to be his successor to lead the Israelites. In his words to Joshua, God promises that he'll always be with him and, therefore, Joshua has no reason to fear the future.
Application: "Am I enough?"
It's a simple question loaded with possibility and pressure.
It's a simple question that we so easily allow to distract us, discourage us, and determine our worth.
It's a simple question that gives birth to fear and compromises our trust in God and others.
It's a simple question that leads to a whole lot of complications in our lives.
During the first chapter of this book, God calls Joshua to lead his people into the Promised Land. I can only imagine that Joshua is wondering what we wonder all too often: "Am I enough?"
His question wasn't unwarranted. Joshua certainly had valid reasons to be fearful of the unknown – his mentor and teacher, Moses, passed away. Now, he was left to lead the Israelites into the Promised Land, something his great successor never accomplished. Fear and a lack of faith held the people back from entering the land God had promised them, and now young Joshua, without his fearless mentor and friend, was charged with leading the people into Canaan. On the surface, the odds really weren't in his favor.
Yet, with the Lord in his corner, the odds were ever in his favor. In fact, there weren't really any odds at all – with God in his corner, the victory was already his.
And with God in our corner, the victory is already ours, too.
We may not be leading the Israelite people, but we're all leading something – ourselves, our spouse, our children, our team, our friends. And so often, we compromise our success by letting that simple question – "Am I enough?" – erode our trust in ourselves, in the God who has created and called us.
God answered Joshua's "Am I enough?" question with this simple promise:
"I will be with you wherever you go."
It turns out that the simple act of God being with us is everything we need.
He promises he's with us – which means we have peace, joy, hope, eternal life. No matter what life throws at us, he is always with us. And when he is with us, we are always enough.
Bad day? He's there.
Divorce? He's there.
Rejection? He's there.
Addiction? He's there.
Failure? He's there.
Financial troubles? He's there.
Inadequacy? He's there.
Our circumstances may change, but our God is constant. And he is more than enough.
"My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, but God remains the strength of my heart; he is mine forever." – Psalm 73:26
Prayer: God, I humbly ask that you simply be with me in my circumstances. I pray I won't let my fear hijack my faith, that you'll fill me with your strength and courage. Amen.
Digging Deeper: Take a few minutes to memorize today's focus verse. Write it on a sticky note to put on your car dashboard or mirror, set it as the lock screen on your phone, say it aloud a few times throughout the day -- whatever will help make it stick.

Namibia Information
Namibia is a desert county containing not one but two deserts, the Kalahari and Namib Desert. Reading between the lines even our more dim witted readers can therefore probably work out that water is in short supply in Namibia.
Although tap water is pretty much always drinkable in larger town and cities, such as Windhoek, it is often recycled and so can taste chlorinated. Most lodges and guest farms in rural areas use bore hole water which is clean and fine to drink. That said many people choose to drink bottled water which is easily obtainable at supermarkets around the country.
Of course the act of drinking water is completely superfluous as Namibia has awesome beer and access to fine wine & gin - so really your major concern should be using water for the purpose of washing. If you do feel the need to wash regularly please remember that water is scarce so take a short shower and save the planet!
Water, taken in moderation, cannot hurt anybody. Mark Twain

Finding the right truck for your needs in the Lewistown, State College, Bellefonte, and Port Matilda areas can be tricky. There aren't as many to choose from as there are crossovers and sedans, but finding the right one can still be challenging, considering most models have more than enough capability.
You deserve only the best, though, so we've compiled a comparison between two of the best pickup trucks on the market. The 2018 Ford F-150 and the 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 are powerful and capable, but only one is superior. Learn more in our Ford F-150 vs. GMC Sierra 1500 comparison.
When you're looking for a truck, you need one that can handle whatever job you throw at it. Whether you need it for the worksite or just want to take your family on a nice trip, your truck should be doing most of the work for you. If you want the best, the Ford F-150 is the answer. Its 3,270-pound payload capacity is the best in its class.
The GMC Sierra 1500 features a max towing capacity of 12,500 pounds which is pretty impressive, but the F-150 continues to outperform the rest of its class with an incredible 13,200-pound towing capacity.
If you're a fan of power, you'll get plenty no matter which truck you choose. The Sierra gets 285 horsepower while the 2018 F-150 gets 290 horsepower in their base models leaving the F-150 with a slight advantage. The difference gets much more significant, however, when you upgrade to the V8 engine which pushes the F-150's horsepower to 395. The 2018 Sierra maxes out at 355.
Typically, all that extra power would mean that you have to take a hit in terms of fuel efficiency. The F-150 continues to defy expectations, however earning an EPA-estimated 21 highway MPG. Even with its 40-horsepower advantage of the Sierra, the GMC can only manage an EPA-estimated 20 highway MPG.
Just because you're shopping for a truck doesn't mean you should ignore the technology. Both these have some surprising features like incredibly advanced infotainment systems complete with Android Auto™, Apple CarPlay™, 4G capability, and more. The primary difference is in responsiveness. Ford's SYNC® 3 system has been hailed for its user friendliness and intuitiveness, while the Sierra's system can't claim the same.
With the F-150, you get another class-exclusive feature. Take advantage of the pro trailer backup assist which allows you to manually steer the trailer. Backing up while towing has never been so easy. The Sierra can't offer any feature like this.
After our Ford F-150 vs GMC Sierra comparison, it's hard to argue with so many best in class features. The 2018 Ford F-150 stands to be one of the greatest pickup trucks available. If you want to see for yourself what makes this truck so incredible, head to The Lake Dealerships and take it for a spin. We invite all our local Lewistown, State College, Bellefonte, and Port Matilda drivers to give it a try. Our expert sales staff can answer any questions you might have and help you find out if the F-150 is right for you. Give us a call and schedule your test drive today!

I'm not a therapist or a dating coach or a life coach, but what I can say is, in my lifetime, I've gone on a lot of dates. There. Those are my credentials for offering dating advice.
I classify my dating experiences into two categories: before marriage (which spanned from the time I was 16 until I met my now ex-husband at age 34) and after divorce, which in 10 years has consisted of a couple dozen dates interspersed within one three-month relationship, a six year relationship, and before I met my now boyfriend of 3 years. That's my dating resume. If you think I'm qualified, read on.
During all of these dating experiences, I took away some really awful, horrific and heartbreaking memories, but I also enjoyed heartfelt and some breathtakingly beautiful moments that will be special to me forever. Mostly though, with every date and every person and every relationship, I gained knowledge—precious little nuggets of wisdom that I believe made me a better person moving forward after each experience.
Here is some of my dating advice. I decided to break it up into four categories, and offer in my opinion—based on my history of dating and relationships, what is attractive and what is not. Remember that what I wrote is just my opinion—not what is right or wrong.
Men, vests will never be attractive to a woman. We love classic button downs, jeans, khakis and understated attire. That doesn't mean boring. It just means showing yourself and your body to a woman rather than meaningless designer labels and what you think will be impressive.
As far as the way a woman should dress for a date: I truly believe that men don't want the low-cut, cleavage-showing top, the skin tight jeans, or the 5 inch heels. The key is to be sexy without trying. I believe that comes with wearing clothing that highlights the parts of your body you love. If you have great legs, go with a skirt and heels. If your lips are your thing, bright lipstick works. If you are proud of your biceps, go sleeveless. Whatever outfit is going to make you feel beautiful and convey the most self-confidence you have, that's the outfit. On a side note, in regards to perfume (or cologne), less is more!
Here are 9 huge turnoffs:
1. When someone talks about how great Bumble or Tinder has been to him or her, and how tons of men (or women) are dying to meet them. Even if it's true, keep it to yourself.
2. When people lie and talk about how much they are enjoying meeting new people and how much fun dating is. No one loves it—at least for more than a couple weeks.
3. Badmouthing an ex or using any derogatory terms when referring to him or her. I once went out with a guy who called his ex-wife a "C" and I almost spit up the sip of wine I had just taken. I wanted to leave before dinner. I would never give him the time of day again. Ever.
4. Bragging about a job and how well you are doing. You might be thinking your date will feel good about the fact that you have money, but I find those who are truly successful don't really talk too much about that.
5. Playing the victim or having the woe is me attitude. It's very unattractive. Feel sorry for yourself to your friends and family or therapist. And even with them, try to minimize it.
6. Giving someone a novel about your life instead of asking your date questions and allowing that person to talk about themselves. In dating, listening is so much more important than talking.
7. Trying to prove you are the best father (or mom) in the world and talking about how much time and money you spend on your kid, or how little time or money your ex spends with your kids.
8. Sending food back or being rude to the waiter/busboy.
9. Looking at your phone and texting. Phones should be in your purse/pocket for the entire date with the exception needing to see it in case kids call.
The winning attitude:
1. Smile a lot.
2. Laugh a lot.
3. Before you leave the house, think to yourself, "Whatever happens is fine. If he/she doesn't like me, that's OK. It doesn't mean I'm unlikeable. It just means it wasn't a fit and wasn't meant to be. I still like me." Also, remember that you are there to see if you like that other person, so focus on that more than whether that person likes you.
4. Don't be afraid to be vulnerable. I once had a guy tell me I was the most interesting first date he's ever been on. Why do I think he said that? Because I was asking some pretty deep questions early on and the conversation got pretty interesting quickly.
5. Remember that if you like yourself, he/she most likely likes you too. One way to tell if he/she has potential, is if you like yourself around him/her. I once dated a guy who I always felt not good enough for—for reasons I will never, ever know to this day! I wanted him to love me so badly and he just didn't. I should have broken it off after the first date instead of torturing myself for a few months. Not really sure why I did that to myself.
6. Make the other person feel important, special and like he or she matters. Even if you know it's not a love connection, listen and be interested in what they have to say. You can never go wrong treating someone with this kind of respect.
7. Level with your date. Don't be afraid to be upfront about what you want. Of course, you don't want to scare the person off, but don't play games. There's no time for that.
At the end of the night
1. Never have sex on the first date. That said, I know a few people who are married to people they slept with the night they met them. Still, I think it's a bad idea. Kissing is fine, even good! (if you want to.)
2. Don't ever go to someone's house or get into his or her car if you just met the person and only know them from the dating app or site. Wait a few weeks.
3. If he doesn't call (or she doesn't respond) even after you thought things went well, chalk it up to the typical disappointment that dating can bring, and don't ever ever take it personally. You have no idea what's really going on in that person's life.
I can't meet anyone
I know a lot of people who date and date and date and none of the dates ever seem to work out. Or, they say "I just can't meet anyone normal." They are perpetually single and when I think about why, I can think of a few reasons.
*Bad luck—just not in the right place at the right time.
*An attraction to non-committal, bad boy types.
*A dislike of themselves. It is impossible to fall in love if you don't love yourself.
*They are carrying too much pain from a past relationship and don't have the insight to see that they need to dig deep (by that I mean therapy) to find out how to heal and fix themselves first.
*They rush the relationship and things become disappointing and awkward so it ends.
*In this day and age of people at your fingertips every minute (Tinder, Bumble, etc.) it's like being in a store with so much merchandise that you can't really shop effectively. You miss some of the good ones.
In closing, no one who wants to be with someone should have to be alone. It saddens me when I think about lonely people, and I have been there myself in the past. Just remember that there is so much we can't control when it comes to dating and relationships, but we CAN control the person we are. So, that means getting yourself in the best possible shape for dating. I don't mean physically, although if that's what's going to make you happier than OK. But what I do mean is, getting yourself mentally and emotionally healthy so that your dates are getting the best you. This will improve your odds of finding love.

Last night I had a dream about food photography. I am actually thinking about taking photos of food while unconscious now. It's pretty much the best thing you could dream about, but still I blame my new food project. Fortunately I was also awoken to the sounds of my wonderful partner making breakfast. This is also never a bad thing.
Today he made Keto friendly breakfast sandwiches with homemade biscuits, tomato and fried egg! He even brought coffee home so I could drink it cold right away, which is necessary because ICED COFFEE IS LIFE. What a hero right? Here it is, beautiful breakfast and coffee in a vintage Federal Glass holographic mug my dad rescued from someone in MA...
Now that you've seen a snack let me woo you with my food project!
The idea is to document our identity, who we are and where we came from, though food. So many of our meaningful meals come from memories of childhood, things a parent or grandparent made, or something we learned to make ourselves- I want to capture some of that and save it. We live in a world of instant gratification, and are growing always into new blended family units and new adults, what we keep and treasure is important.
If you have a special meal you would like to share with me please shoot me an email (firstname.lastname@example.com) and we can figure out how to make it happen! I'd like to photograph you making a snack, meal or beverage, you with the special something, and the creation on it's own!
Happy snacking, over and out.

Complete tattoo removal in less time with less pain!
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can PicoSure remove my tattoo?
PicoSure is the fastest method of scar-free laser tattoo removal and can remove lighter tattoos in as little as one treatment (the tattoo will fade over a period of weeks). The total time required for removal of a tattoo depends on the size and color of the tattoo.
How long is each laser tattoo removal treatment?
Though the length of each treatment session depends upon the size of your tattoo and the color of the ink, sessions usually last between 10 and 30 minutes.
Can PicoSure completely remove my tattoo?
Yes! Even difficult-to-remove ink colors such as greens and blues are no match for the PicoSure laser. Darker colors like black are very responsive to PicoSure treatments. Most tattoos can be completely erased with PicoSure.
Is PicoSure FDA-approved for tattoo removal in Connecticut?
Yes! PicoSure is the first new laser technology to be FDA-approved for tattoo removal in 20 years.
Does PicoSure tattoo removal hurt?
While patients do report feelings like snapping of a rubber band or stinging, the pain experienced with the PicoSure device is considerably less than that with traditional laser tattoo removal methods.
How much does PicoSure tattoo removal cost?
The cost varies depending on the size and color of your tattoo. To determine the exact cost, schedule your free laser tattoo removal consultation at The Langdon Center today!

I'm not really sure why its called Robin Hood's Bay considering that it isn't anywhere near Nottingham...perhaps the smugglers that used it stole from the rich to give to the poor?
Anyway, this bay is kind of what I would imagine my quiet, safe place to look like and every time I look at these photos I feel the same as when we were there, calm and relaxed.
I was a bit worried about using a black and white film as the colours were so lovely but I think that I actually prefer the look of the black and white tones here, the contrast is perfect.
Location: Robin Hood's Bay, Yorkshire
Camera: Refurb LC-A

The Uncommercial Traveller by Charles Dickens

page 1 of 480 (00%)
Allow me to introduce myself--first negatively.
No landlord is my friend and brother, no chambermaid loves me, no
waiter worships me, no boots admires and envies me. No round of
beef or tongue or ham is expressly cooked for me, no pigeon-pie is
especially made for me, no hotel-advertisement is personally
addressed to me, no hotel-room tapestried with great-coats and
railway wrappers is set apart for me, no house of public
entertainment in the United Kingdom greatly cares for my opinion of
its brandy or sherry. When I go upon my journeys, I am not usually
rated at a low figure in the bill; when I come home from my
journeys, I never get any commission. I know nothing about prices,
and should have no idea, if I were put to it, how to wheedle a man
into ordering something he doesn't want. As a town traveller, I am
never to be seen driving a vehicle externally like a young and
volatile pianoforte van, and internally like an oven in which a
number of flat boxes are baking in layers. As a country traveller,
I am rarely to be found in a gig, and am never to be encountered by
a pleasure train, waiting on the platform of a branch station,
quite a Druid in the midst of a light Stonehenge of samples.

Toenail fungus is a frustrating problem that affects many people. It can be persistent and hard to get rid of. As many different types of fungi are present throughout the environment, it is very easy to contract toenail fungus.
The feet are especially susceptible to toenail fungus because shoes and socks create the ideal dark and moist environment that fungal infections thrive in. While fungal infections of the nail plate are quite common, if left untreated they can spread beyond the toenail and into the skin and other parts of the body.
Signs of toenail fungus include a thickened nail that has become yellow or brown in color, a foul smell, and debris beneath the nail. The toe may become painful due to the pressure of a thicker nail or the buildup of debris.
Treatment for toenail fungus is most effective during the early stages of an infection. If there is an accumulation of debris beneath the nail plate, an ingrown nail or a more serious infection can occur. While each treatment varies between patients, your podiatrist may prescribe you oral medications, topical liquids and creams, or laser therapy. To determine the best treatment process for you, be sure to visit your podiatrist at the first signs of toenail fungus.
Gout, typically found in diabetic patients, is an unusually painful form of arthritis caused by elevated levels of uric acid in the bloodstream. The condition typically strikes the big joint on the big toe. It has also been known to strike the knees, elbows, fingers, ankles and wrists—generally anywhere that has a functioning, moving joint.
The high level of uric acid in a person's bloodstream creates the condition known as hyperuricema—the main cause of gout. Genetic predisposition occurs in nine out of ten sufferers. The children of parents who suffer gout will have a two in ten chance of developing the condition as well.
This form of arthritis, being particularly painful, is the leftover uric acid crystallizing in the blood stream. The crystallized uric acid then travels to the space between joints where they rub, causing friction when the patient moves. Symptoms include: pain, redness, swelling, and inflammation. Additional side effects may include fatigue and fever, although reports of these effects are very rare. Some patients have reported that pain may intensify when the temperature drops, such as when you sleep.
Most cases of gout are easily diagnosed by a podiatrist's assessment of the various symptoms. Defined tests can also be performed. A blood test to detect elevated levels of uric acid is often used as well as an x-ray to diagnose visible and chronic gout.
Treatment for gout simply means eliminating symptoms. Non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs or NSAIDs (Colchicine and other corticosteroid drugs, etc.) will quell the redness, the swelling, and the inflammation. However, managing your diet, lifestyle changes, and using preventative drugs are all helpful toward fully combating the most severe cases.
Those that lead an inactive lifestyle are at a higher risk for gout. Any amount of exercise decreases the probability of repeat encounters with the condition. Reducing your consumption of red meat, sea food, and fructose-sweetened drinks also reduces the likelihood of chronic gout as well.
Ingesting Vitamin C, coffee, and particular dairy products can help with maintaining a healthy lifestyle. There are new drugs out on the market that inhibit the body's production of uric acid-producing enzymes. However, reducing or eliminating your overall levels of uric acid is the best remedy to ensuring you lead a gout-free life.
An ingrown toenail is a toenail that grows sideways into the nail bed, causing pain and swelling. Ingrown toenails can worsen and cause drainage, turning into a serious infection.
Several factors affect whether a person is at risk from an ingrown toenail. The many causes include being overweight, diabetes, participating in sports, having a fungal infection of the toe, and cutting your nails too short. Ingrown toenails also have a genetic predisposition, causing some people to be more prone to receive the condition than others. Other causes include improperly fitting shoes and shoes that keep the feet damp.
Ingrown toenails can be preventable with certain measures. For starters, allowing your toe nails to grow slightly longer in length will help prevent them from becoming ingrown. If you have already developed an ingrown toenail, soak the affected toe in warm water. This will alleviate the pain and help prevent an infection from forming. Antibiotic soap or Epsom salts may be added to further help the relieving process and avoid infection. Placing cotton beneath the affected area is also suggested, as this may help the toenail grow upwards and not into the nail bed. Swelling and redness can be reduced by resting with your feet elevated.
A podiatrist should be seen if the pain becomes so serious that it prevents you from doing your everyday activities. If a red streak running up your leg appears or if you suspect your infection has spread, contact a podiatrist immediately. Fast treatments can be undertaken to lessen your pain and have you walking comfortably.
An ingrown toenail can be easily treated with a Band-Aid. Simply wrap the affected toe with a Band-Aid to prevent infection and keep the nail from growing out at a painful angle.
In more serious cases, your podiatrist may decide to make a small incision to remove a portion of your toenail. To prevent the nail from growing back, medication will be placed directly into the nail bed. This procedure would be performed under local anesthesia and is a faster method to alleviate discomfort from an ingrown toenail. Post-procedure directions will have you stay off the affected foot for a day. Afterwards, normal activities can be resumed.
Gaining weight can happen suddenly and at any time. Usually you won't notice the extra weight until your feet start hurting at the end of the day. This happens as your feet begin adjusting to carrying more weight. Foot swelling and pain are two of the biggest side effects of having gained weight.
Many foot-related problems can occur even after just putting on a few pounds. This includes the body 'compensating' by changing the way it moves. You may find yourself putting extra weight on the wrong parts of your feet and even leaning forward a bit. Your feet were designed to carry a healthy, normal body weight. Extra weight places undue stress on them.
Being overweight often causes the development of Type-2 diabetes, causing leg and foot pain. Older people who do not attempt to control their condition can even lose sensation and feeling in their legs and feet. This can lead to the development of small sores that can lead to serious infection.
Extra stress placed on the joints, tendons and muscles in the feet as a result of extra body weight may also cause heel spurs, or plantar fasciitis. Plantar fasciitis is an inflammation of the foot tissue, causing stiffness and pain when walking and climbing stairs. This can usually be relieved by foot stretches and custom made orthotic shoe-inserts.
Problems in the feet triggered by obesity can be treated by paying special attention to footwear. Proper support shoes that allow for good circulation, especially in the arch and ankle, are vital. A podiatrist can help you find what sort of shoe is most suitable for your feet. They can also measure you for special orthotics if necessary.
It could also be high time to start losing weight in order to treat and prevent diabetes as well as other life threatening diseases. Some methods include yoga and water aerobics, which benefit your entire body without placing stress on your feet. Don't risk losing your feet by losing interest in them. Take care of your feet and your body, as they deserve the very best.

Associate Broker, Big Rapids Realty, Inc
I was a young woman when I decided to start my career in real estate. It was the spring of 1998. At that time, I was the full-time assistant to the finance manager at University Chevrolet. Although I enjoyed my job, the idea of helping people buy or sell their house sounded exciting & different than the norm.
So much has changed since 1998 – our house listings were issued bi-weekly in black and white paperback books, the blackberry had yet to be invented, and gas was $1.15 a gallon! Since that year my husband, Ryan, and I have added 4 wonderful children; Josh 18(he would prefer the title "adult-child"), Leah 15, Sam 14, and Zachariah 9. These days, Ryan & I have a great time attending our kids many music and sporting events. We take great pleasure in being a part of the Big Rapids Cardinal community and supporting the sports through the BR Cardinal Sports Boosters. Our family also enjoys attending Big Rapids Resurrection Life Church.
I never would have thought that almost 20 yrs. later, I'd still be engaged in this fulfilling career. Having had the opportunity to serve some of the best people in the Big Rapids area, I look forward to another 20 or more years in the real estate business.
I truly enjoy working with people and getting to know them. It's exciting and fulfilling to help individuals and families with an important decision - selling or purchasing a home.

FAIRFAX, Va. - Three program all-time top ten performances highlighted the American University track & field team's performances on Friday and Saturday as the Eagles took to the track for the first time in 2019 at George Mason's Patriot Games.
- The Eagles earned ten top-ten finishes over the two-day meet, including a seventh-place finish in the women's 5000m from senior Adriana Hooks to open events on Friday evening. Hooks, who currently holds the No. 2 time in program history with her 17.13.73 personal record (PR), landed just outside of her time from the Navy Winter Invitational in December with a 17:38.86 crossing.
- Freshman Clare Hernandez followed with a 16th-place performance in 18:14.10, good for ninth in the AU program record books.
- Senior Trevor Patton led the Eagles with his second-place finish in the long jump. The AU school record holder with his 7.11m (23-4) personal best, just missed on first place with his top mark of 6.76m (22-2.25).
- Patton also added his name to the program record list for the 200m dash, landing at No. 9 all-time with his 23.93 finish.
- Junior Emily Houghton made it into her third all-time top ten list after running the 10th fastest time in AU history for the women's 800m with her third-place crossing on Saturday (2:21.18).
- Senior Matthew Rainey also earned a third-place finish with his 4:25.90 performance in the men's mile run while classmate Kassidy Ayres placed 10th in the women's field.
- Sophomore Shelbi Wuss (fifth, 3000m) and junior Justin Dignan (10th, 800m) rounded out the top-ten finishers for the Eagles.
"We had a decent showing today for our first meet since early-December. Unfortunately, we weren't able to get in our "rust buster" meet last weekend due to weather, and so jumped into this weekend a little flat. There were some strong performances and some learning points, as well. We're looking forward to sharpening up a few areas and getting back on the track in a few weeks at VMI."

The US embassy in China has issued a new alert over a mystery illness affecting some of its diplomats.
The alert urges American citizens across China to seek medical help if they suffer any "unusual, unexplained physical symptoms or events, auditory or sensory phenomena, or other health concerns."
Symptoms included dizziness, headaches, tinnitus, fatigue, cognitive issues, visual problems, ear complaints and hearing loss, as well as difficulty sleeping, the warning said.
The unexplained health issues have prompted the evacuation of a number of US government employees from the southern city of Guangzhou, where an American consulate is based.
In May, one worker reported experiencing "abnormal sensations of sounds and pressure" amid fears of a "sonic attack".
The state department said the unnamed person's symptoms indicated a "mild traumatic brain injury".
A previous warning was issued that month covering only Guangzhou.
The US government has brought a group of people from the consulate back to the US for further evaluation and screening has also been offered to employees at the country's embassy in Beijing and other US consulates on request.
China has said it has investigated the initial case and found no explanation.
China's state-run Global Times tabloid said in an editorial: "Practically all Chinese people do not believe that this country's official organisations would carry out such sonic attacks against U.S. diplomats.
"This does not fit with China's basic concept and principles of diplomacy, and is inconceivable."
A similar situation led the US to recall non-essential embassy staff from Cuba in 2017, after at least 24 US citizens suffered symptoms, leading to suspicions that they had been deliberately and covertly targeted.

The Animation Society of India, in collaboration with the Mohile Parikh Center (NCPA, Mumbai) is conducting a full day Flip Book Animation Workshop for underprivileged kids from various NGOs across Maharashtra on Saturday, 19th December 2009 at NCPA, Mumbai.
Vaibhav Kumaresh will introduce the fascinating world of animation to a group of 40 children by screening a variety of animation films so that they can get a feel of the medium. He will then demonstrate how a series of single drawings/ images when played at a certain speed, create the illusion of movement. The children will then be given papers and pencils to doodle page by page. Once they have completed their drawings, they will put together their pages with a rubber band and flip them to see the animation they have created!

Hump Day Exchange: Womansplaining
According to the National Science Foundation, women make up half of the U.S. college-educated workforce, but only 29% of the science and engineering workforce. While many great first computer scientists were women, we still have not closed the gap between genders. The conversations of sexism and sexual harassment in the workplace, and how to solve these large problems, are becoming more of a hot-topic with recent viral articles about companies like Uber.
To explore this topic, we brought in Jen Bonnett, Director and General Manager of ATDC, Wei-Chun Tai, partner at Mosely Ventures, and Annie Harrison Elliott, playwright of Empty Rooms, which will be performed in the Garage. Listen to what these women had to say about the challenges and opportunities they face on a daily basis:
Hump Day Exchange is one part social gathering of the Tech Square community and one part podcast recording. Each month, after sharing some food and drink, we explore one topic from three perspectives. Each guest goes into the hot seat to talk with our host 1:1, then all three guests engage in a roundtable conversation. We end with questions from the live studio audience.

A patient with terminal illness experiences a variety of feelings. The CNA should respect their needs and desires and focus more on comforting the patients rather than curing them. This includes providing emotional and spiritual support, providing family time and caring for the dying person.
The CNA should be aware of the rights of the dying patient and also understand what the patient is feeling in the final stages of his/her life. A terminally ill patient:
- Can decide how he/she will spend the final days of his life
- Can refuse food and treatment
- Has the right to relief from pain and suffering
The patient may also decide to stop life-sustaining treatment altogether.
The patient often feels anger and depression and it is difficult for them to accept the inevitable. The CNA should listen and support the patient during this time. It is important to accept the person and his choices without passing judgments. Depending on the patient's ethnic background, the patient may want to meet a priest, recite prayers or do other things according to his/her religious beliefs and cultural values. If the CNA is not comfortable about supporting the patient's beliefs, he should notify the supervisor at once. The nurse will accordingly transfer the patient's responsibilities to another CNA.
The CNA should check regularly to see that the terminally ill patient is comfortable at all times. It can relieve the pain and discomfort that the terminal illness causes. The CNA can do the following to improve the patient's comfort level:
- Ensure that the pillows are positioned comfortably.
- Position the patient comfortably.
- Provide regular oral care and skin care.
Look for signs of skin breakdown that may occur due to long periods of immobility.
- Notify the supervisor immediately in case there are sudden changes in the patient's health:
- Nausea
- Constipation
- Anxiety and depression
- Breathing difficulty
- Provide hard candy or ice chips if the patient's throat and mouth are excessively dry.
- Provide emotional support and care when the patient expresses anger or frustration.
- Comply with the patient's request, and show that you care.
The patient may also show a decrease in appetite, because of his/her health condition. In such cases, the CNA should not force meals on the patient, as it can increase pain and suffering. Remember, the patient has a right to refuse food or treatment.
The best strategy is to provide the food that the patient asks for but not force him/her to consume it. In fact, providing food and water when necessary, creates the necessary chemical processes in the body that relieves pain and discomfort.

Black Denim Rida Tec Bike Jacket
Harry Cramp - Fordcombe Kent (22 July 2018)
Delight with the fit quality and clever design of the jacket. Returning to motorbike after many years I soon found the limitations of my old wax cotton jacket in this very hot weather.New to the idea of armour I was looking for a fair weather jacket that offered modern levels of protection, this does it all comfortably, without being overly bulky the jacket is reasureingly substanchel with good size pockets, far more than a jean jacket with armour. Very fast delivery the jacket exceed my expectations and is very good value.

ne of the most unique elements of the ASYV family structure is the role of our Big Brothers and Sisters within the Village. While the Mamas mend the hearts of our children, the Big Brothers and Sisters restore the fun of childhood. Many students are experiencing the love from a parent for the first time when they arrive at ASYV. It can be unnerving and sometimes overwhelming to let someone new into their lives in such a profound way. For this reason the Village provides another form of support through that of a sibling. Big Brothers and Sisters live in the Village and serve to dispense advice and support whenever and wherever it is needed. Unlike the Mamas who live with one family of kids for all four years, Brothers and Sisters have multiple families that they mentor.
during the child's first two years in the Village. The students that enter ASYV in their enrichment year range from 15-18 years of age. The Brothers and Sisters provide a level of comfort to the new students as they represent the same generation and have shared similar experiences. When walking through the Village it is not uncommon to see Big Brothers and Sisters sprawled out with their families on the grass or holding hands and giggling as they walk up to the dining hall. The strength of a sibling bond is something that can never quite be understood, but it is the most beautiful strength that can ever be witnessed.
When speaking to the Big Brothers and Sisters about how they perceive their role in the Village, their responses mirrored their commitment to the Village. Dorkus Ashimwe explained that her role for her young Sisters is primarily to serve as an example. "When I was their age, I struggled to stay focused on my studies. They're young, in a new place, with new people and many new things to try. I understand that it can be difficult to adjust and I am here for them during this transition. It was not long ago that I was a student. I am here to encourage them, to have them learn from my mistakes - as any Big Sister would."
Big Brother Guy Kamatari provided his own learning experience within ASYV. "The Village is here to heal. I am able to heal my own history through being a part of my Brothers' lives. My boys are my Brothers. You do this for a job for one or two months and you start to feel like you have to be in the Village. Agahozo-Shalom is my home. To me, this is what healing really is - when it's so good that you don't even realize that you've changed. That you're finally happy." Big Brother Alexandre Umurinzi nodded his head in agreement, "We are around their same age," he continued, "the kids feel comfortable approaching us with whatever problems they are experiencing. It can be difficult for a teenage boy to talk to his Mama about some of the things that they can discuss with us. We make ourselves available to them, so no kid ever feels that they are alone without someone to talk to."
The roles of the Big siblings extend beyond that of the family construct. All of our Big Brothers and Sisters have alternative positions within the Village such as coaching sports, teaching art or music, or assisting with IT. In this way, the community grows even stronger and titles such as "Village," or "Family" are sincerely justified. "I know who these kids are and where they come from. I understand how to teach them and how to motivate them inside and outside of the classroom," said Big Brother Guy, "I'm with them every day. No one knows my boys better than me." ASYV could not function in its familial capacity without the camaraderie that is encouraged by our Big Brothers and Sisters. We are so grateful for their endless love and abounding spirit!
