Every body has an innate ability to heal, this is the healing power of nature. Signs and symptoms experienced in the body are often an indication of its ability to correct itself. Fever, for example, is the body's innate defence in fighting a foreign attack on the body, it is a natural mechanism to re-establish equilibrium. Pharmaceutical medications often hinder this process by destroying those natural defences through symptom suppression. Although every form of medicine has its rightful place, the best form of medicine for most chronic diseases is still prevention and supporting the body's natural healing ability.
To support this healing potential, the way the person deals with stress, lifestyle and diet will need to be addressed. These areas are often neglected in individuals who become ill as the body has been run down and its inner fires of health has grown dim from constant dis-equilibrium. Stoking the innate fires of health require patience and effort depending on the level of disharmony, and most of all guidance is required in the form of proper knowledge. With training in both Eastern and Western medical knowledge, naturopathic doctors are in a position to effectively act as both educators of healthy living and healers to empower and inspire optimal health. In fact, 'doctor' comes from Latin docere, meaning 'to teach'.
Even though the roots of natural medicine come from many hundreds of years (in some cases thousands of years) of history with some remedies having many years of historical use, medicine as a whole is constantly evolving and advancing. Just as we gain more and more understanding of the intricacies of the human body, we are also constantly advancing our knowledge of those substances found in nature that heals and cures. As we are a part of nature, it makes sense that everything that allows us to be healthy can be found in nature. Many pharmaceutical drugs are derived and processed from nature. New research is constantly being conducted to provide us with further validation of some of those ancient healing remedies and traditions. Naturopathic medicine stands at the forefront of the medical arts and science, embracing the old (wisdom) and the new (science), the East and the West. It is a very fortunate time to be a practitioner and recipient of the healing arts.

BUCHAREST (Romania), November 8 (SeeNews) - The European Commission (EC) said on Thursday that Romania needs to recover some 60 million euro ($68.9 million) of illegal state aid from energy producer Complexul Energetic Hunedoara (CEH).
The Commission concluded that four of five loans granted to the state-owned electricity and heat producer and totalling around 60 million euro plus interest, are incompatible with EU state aid rules and need to be recovered by Romania. The fifth loan constitutes existing aid granted before Romania's accession to the EU and therefore does not need to be recovered, the Commission said in a statement.
"A government can support a company in financial difficulty if the company has a sound restructuring plan, contributes to the cost of its restructuring and competition distortions are limited. In the case of CE Hunedoara these conditions were not met - we found that the public loans granted by Romania to CE Hunedoara gave the company an unfair economic advantage. This means that the state aid was illegal. Now Romania needs to recover the illegal aid that was granted to the company," competition policy commissioner Margrethe Vestager said.
On 21 April 2015, the Commission approved a temporary rescue aid of 37.7 million euro to CEH under EU state aid rules, as the company had been in financial difficulty since 2013. In the context of this decision, Romania committed to submit a restructuring plan aimed at ensuring the future viability of the company, should CEH be unable to pay back the rescue aid in six months' time.
As CEH failed to repay the rescue aid and in the absence of a credible restructuring plan or any real steps towards the liquidation of the company, the European Commission opened an in-depth investigation in March 2018.
During the investigation, the Commission assessed whether five publicly financed or supported loans granted to CEH were in line with EU state aid rules. Together, the loans amounted to approximately 73 million euro as of 30 June 2016.
Under EU state aid rules, public interventions in companies are considered free of state aid when they are carried out on terms that a private investor operating under market conditions would have accepted in a similar situation (the market economy investor principle), the Commission explained.
The Commission found that no private market economy operator would have granted, guaranteed or prolonged any of the five loans to CEH, given the company's deteriorating financial situation since 2013. As a result, the Romanian public support measures gave the company an unfair economic advantage over its competitors, and therefore constitute state aid within the meaning of the EU rules.
As a matter of principle, EU state aid rules require that incompatible state aid is recovered without delay in order to remove the distortion of competition created by the aid. There are no fines under EU state aid rules and recovery does not penalise the company in question. It simply restores equal treatment with other companies, the EC said.
CE Hunedoara operates two power plants (Deva and Paroseni) and four hard coal mines to fuel its plants. The company currently owes 547 million euro to various Romanian state bodies, including the five loans subject to the state aid investigation. CEH, which employs around 6,500 people, has been loss-making since 2013 and entered temporarily into formal insolvency proceedings under Romanian law, which are suspended since January 2016.

NEILSTON gaffer Robert Fox was left to lament another lost weekend after the Farmers' Boys' cup tie with Renfrew was called off.
The Central District First Division side had just started to motor but a lengthy list of postponements has seen them lose ground on their main promotion rivals.
And, with Glasgow Perthshire out of sight at the top of the table, the remainder of the clubs are effectively battling it out for just ONE promotion berth.
Fox said: "It was disappointing that Saturday's match was called off.
"It was a cup tie, but it's now just another fixture that has to be slotted in somewhere.
"When I took over, we started well and had begun climbing the table but a lack of games has seen us drop back down again.
"At the moment, Vale of Clyde look to be detached at the foot of the table but we are now just two points off the second bottom teams."
The 'Ton have played just nine league games, while rivals have clocked-up four and five games more.
Fox said: "We are now in with the clubs battling relegation and we will need to show some fighting spirit to get out of there.
"I would much rather have points on the board than games in hand because if you don't win them, then they mean absolutely nothing.
"First and foremost, that means hoping that this Saturday's match against Benburb is on – then we have to win it!"
No date has yet been set for the West of Scotland cup tie against Renfrew.

...with the most honest, heart-melting feedback on our work that I could ever dream of: right as we finished the last details on the shopwindow design, a 4 year old child passed by on his three wheeled blue bike.
After a heel-brake, he left his "horse" right in front, rushed inside, opened the glass door and tried to grab some of the objects we made. An embarrased father rushed in, grabbed him out and left us all floating in angel dust clouds :))

(Refiles to insert dropped word ...with... in lead)
By S.M. Krishantha
TRINCOMALEE, Sri Lanka, Feb 12 (Reuters) - Tamil Tigers rebels shot at civilians trying to flee fighting in Sri Lanka's northern war zone, wounded witnesses said on Thursday after escaping with the help of the Red Cross.
The military says at least 32,000 people have fled the war zone in the Indian Ocean island's northeast, where troops aim to deal a death blow to separatist Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) they have cornered there and end a 25-year-old civil war.
On Tuesday, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) ferried out 240 sick and wounded people by boat from the Tiger-held coastal village of Puttumatalan.
Among those was Sister Mary Colostica, a 74-year-old Catholic nun, who told how she and five other nuns shepherded more than 2,000 civilians from village to village as they tried to escape fighting and shelling.
First-hand accounts from the war zone are difficult to get because most civilians who flee are put into military-run camps that are off-limits to outsiders.
"When we tried to leave, the LTTE didn't allow civilians to leave and said only we can leave," she told Reuters from a hospital in Trincomalee, the eastern port where she and the others were taken by the Red Cross.
"So we stayed back with the civilians," she said. They stayed around a makeshift field hospital that had to be moved away from the rapidly advancing fighting, until they hit the shores of the Indian Ocean at Puttumatalan.
The ICRC said 16 patients were killed by artillery fire there on Monday. Another boatload of 160 patients was due to leave Puttumatalan on Thursday, the ICRC said.
Sister Mary, who was being treated for shrapnel wounds, described the crisis in the north as worse than what she saw during the 2004 tsunami, which killed about 30,000 people on the island.
"At least 10 to 15 people die a day and no one is there to bury them," she said. "The LTTE fired from close to civilians. We had objected, but that didn't work."
The entire war zone has been sealed off to journalists and most aid workers. Humanitarian agencies estimate about 250,000 people are trapped there.
The government says the number is half of that, while the United Nations is planning for an exodus of 150,000 people.
Another nun, Sister Louise, said the LTTE fired at people repeatedly when they begged to leave.
"When we tried to escape with civilians, LTTE had fired at me. I got shot in my leg," she said from her hospital bed.
The rebels have denied accusations from the government, a growing list of countries and rights groups that they have forcibly kept civilians inside the war zone to use as fighters.
The LTTE is on numerous international terrorism lists and has rebuffed repeated international calls to free civilians. The Tigers blame the military for civilian deaths.
Sri Lanka's government has also refused calls for a ceasefire but pledged to give civilians safe passage. Both sides deny targeting civilians.
Another 2,000 people reached army-held areas on Wednesday and at least another 200 had come out by Thursday morning, military spokesman Brigadier Udaya Nanayakkara said.
More than 50,000 soldiers are converging on the 175 square km (67 sq miles) pocket still held by the Tigers. Analysts say they have no more than 2,000 guerrillas left and face defeat.
Nanayakkara said that number had shrunk to about 700.
"It can be increased, because the people are still with them and can be forcibly recruited and trained to fight," he said. (Writing by Bryson Hull; Editing by Paul Tait)

This morning is grey and quiet. We can hardly hear a single bird announce day. The power returned as we prepared for bed last night. We were able to light a few candles and find all of our flashlights. It feels like camping while living here some days. However, expecting water to always run freely from the tap here is not a reality. Our water tank in the apartment is empty. Not a drop is flowing. No water means our toilets won't flush. If we don't wash our dishes immediately the bugs march in battalions. We will go far too long without bathing and our ripe aroma will even offend our own noses. We'll have to get Robert to help us by bringing yellow jerricans of water to fill in the basins. For the Ugandans, they sigh, yes they are familiar with finding water when their source runs dry. It doesn't rattle them at all. Me? I have to read the blog I wrote yesterday to help me want what God has given me.
We are never here in this apartment to use our water so it should be full, which tells me someone in the compound is helping themselves to it. And I'm told, "there's no way to know." This also means "don't cause a problem with our neighbors Mama Tonya." Even my water can be stolen here and I might have to buy water to be delivered and no one will get caught and learn stealing is wrong. It's just not worth investigating a crime because people will die before admitting they are wrong. When faced with an accusation I have seen man woman and child produce lies with an impulse that is instinctual not cognitive.
In our children's home one time there was a fire in one of the bedrooms. Oh my goodness what a hassle it was for the staff to sort out the details of how the fire started, who was in the room, what was the evidence, and who did it. To this day we still do not know who started that fire, but for all the trouble a little experimenting caused no one has dared come close to starting one again. And unfortunately everyone got in trouble because one person remained silent. For those kids who don't ever do wrong but always suffer for the crimes of the regular offenders it becomes a seed of resentment.
I think I understand why they remain silent when guilty. I'm learning why you can pull a group of Ugandanas to sit for a business meeting and no one will say a word no matter how many questions are asked or requests for answers are made. Shame. This culture uses public shaming to control people. Once I was with Julie in Oweno shopping for food. It is the unbelievably vast spread of thousands of people selling their goods wholesale. It's not a place for mzungus, we are supposed to buy from the shops and they were hostile towards me just for being there. It was a sweltering hot day so I had on a loose swinging sundress that touched just above my knees and if the wind hadn't been blowing the skirt around it would have gone all the way to my knees and been perfectly acceptable. The ladies grumbled in the local language that they should teach me a lesson for wearing inappropriate clothing in town. What they meant is to tear off my clothing and leave me standing naked in public so I will learn not to dress that way again. Public shaming administered by mob justice.
In the village of Uganda if a thief steals something in public where there are other people around the people will grab him, drag him to a public place throw tires around him, pour gasoline into the tires and set it on fire. If the same thing happens in the city people will beat him with stones and sticks and if the police do not come in time they will take him to his death. Mob justice.
In school the children are criticized and chastised for every wrong answer. They are publicly beaten when out of line in any way. There is scorn and verbal abuse unleashed for any slight disobedience, disturbance or ignorance. If your shoes are not polished you can receive public shaming. If your tuition fees are not paid they will yell and chase you away from school with a stick raised. They use shame to control and it is crippling.
Couple this shame training with a government that forbids free speech and you get a refusal to speak freely. Everyone lives in fear of how his or her words will convict. For me, that would feel like living with a clamp on my heart and a muzzle on my mouth. No thank you.
In America I could go on public television and say what I really think about President Obama. I could even lie and say he's a homosexual and his children are not even his own. I used this example only to make the point that our freedom of speech we enjoy as Americans is not universal. If you could have seen the shock and horror on Robert and Julie's face when I said I could blaspheme our president! So I asked them what would happen if you did that here in Uganda? He said, "before you left the microphone "they" would be waiting for you in the studio and you would disappear forever. Imprisoned for words. Tortured for ideas. Ultimately life is risked for what you say here.
I read Brene Brown's book, The Gifts of Imperfection where she explains her ten years of qualitiative research explaining the cause and effects of shame. Her findings were fascinating to me because though it was secular research her results say what Jesus has been telling us in the bible all along. We crave love and belonging and we are created with a gaping hole in our hearts where only love and belonging will satisfy. As Christians we believe Jesus alone can satisfy our need for love and belonging.
Brown's research shows, "We all want to live wholeheartedly, love, belong, engage, and connect but we struggle with worthiness so shame, blame, fear and vulnerability become obstacles." ( I don't have the book with me in Africa so this quote could be slightly off.) Brown collected stories from thousands of people for ten years to understand shame. Her finding shows credibility for how the general American seeks love and belonging yet struggles with the obstacles of shame, blame, fear and vulnerability.
People with a heavy load of shame believe they are bad, unworthy of love and belonging, and this despair takes them down a path of destructive behavior. When we use shame to parent children we are teaching our children they are not inherently unworthy of love. Her research also showed that the pain of shame is unbearable so we develop ways to numb ourselves, take the edge off. This numbing becomes compulsive and addictive then ultimately destructive. Some of the ways we numb are: alcohol, sex, relationships, money, work, care taking, gambling, staying busy, affairs, chaos, shopping, planning, perfectionism, constant change and use of the internet.
At Kirabo Seeds from the very first day I gathered the staff I introduced the idea of positive reinforcement for good behavior and fair consequences for bad choices. We have a chart and they got green cards when they were caught doing good and red cards when they needed discipline. It didn't take long before the children understood they were in charge of their behavior. They could get praise and privileges for choosing the right way or chores and punishment for making a bad choice. Before long we had peace and order in our home.
When I first introduced this method the staff said it was too American and that some things don't work here in Africa. But to their surprise when they tried it they had amazing success. And our children feel loved and they know they are worthy of belonging in our home. They have grown to be confident and expressive of their ideas, thoughts, feelings, fears and secrets. They know they are safe and they know we would never shame them because we love them authentically.
What I wouldn't give to be able to take this research and change the schools in Uganda. I'm prayerfully waiting for God to show us how to spread more of his love and extinguish the enemy's lies that take root when shaming is used to control children. I believe ANYTHING is possible when God says go, so if I get the signal that we can spread the idea that shame kills the spirit of a child my own passion will be unleashed. Then look out.
I have taught Irene the outline of Brown's research findings on shame and she was silenced. She said, "I understand and I see for the first time how harmful shame is to the human soul. We (Ugandans…humans) use shame every opportunity we have to control people." She admitted "I use it habitually on my two year old." Oh she was struck. She will study and she will share the message of positive reinforcement as an alternative to using shame. It's a start.
If only someone would tap my shoulder and say, "I'd like to fundraise to start a school and manage the project so we can prevent shame from reaching the next generation in Uganda." I'd say, "Let's go."
The culture shift will come from children who have grown up protected from the effects of shame. I won't give up on the adults. I will urge the team to share from their heart. I will assure them they are safe to be open with Darren and Mary Beth. It will take much more than a promise to shift a culture from generations of fearing shame. I have to believe with God anything is possible. My small part is to hold on to what is true and remain in that way regardless of how much opposition comes against me. I suppose I could say that's my actual job description: "train a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6
My answer to the weight of opposition: "If God is with me who can come against me?" I don't have to change the whole world. I just have to do my small part and believe the seeds will grow because God is doing his part.

Donald Trump reverses himself on the electoral college, says he could have won the popular vote
Donald Trump on Tuesday contended that if the US election had been based on the popular vote he would have "won even bigger and more easily" in an emphatic response to those claiming his victory is illegitimate because more Americans voted for Hillary Clinton.
Mr Trump was uncharacteristically withdrawn in his first week as president-elect, sitting for just one television interview and going hours or even days without tweeting.
But with petitions circulating to end the electoral college after Mrs Clinton was denied the White House despite defeating Mr Trump by 0.7 per cent in the overall vote total, Mr Trump returned to Twitter yesterday on Tuesday.
"If the election were based on total popular vote I would have campaigned in New York, Florida and California and won even bigger and more easily," he wrote.
Mr Trump also defended the electoral college, a system he called a "disaster for democracy" on election night four years ago.
At the time of that post the popular vote was tight but Barack Obama led comfortably in the electoral college
"The Electoral College is actually genius in that it brings all states, including the smaller ones, into play," he wrote on Tuesday. "Campaigning is much different!"
One petition calling for Mrs Clinton to be made president based on the results of the popular vote now has more than four million signatures.
Mr Trump won the electoral college by a 306 to 232 margin, boosted by narrow wins in historically Democratic states like Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.
Mrs Clinton never visited Wisconsin during the campaign, and only prioritised Michigan in the final days.
Mr Obama seemed to criticise Mrs Clinton on Monday for failing to keep as active a schedule as Mr Trump, and for taking some states for granted.
"We have to compete everywhere. We have to show up everywhere," he said, using Iowa, a state he won twice but which Mrs Clinton lost, as an example.
"I won Iowa not because the demographics dictated that I would win Iowa. It was because I spent 87 days going to every small town and fair and fish fry and VFW Hall.
"There's some counties maybe I won, that people didn't expect, because people had a chance to see you and listen to you and get a sense of who you stood for and who you were fighting for," he continued.
Bernie Sanders, runner-up to Mrs Clinton in the Democratic primary elections, said he was "deeply humiliated" that Mr Trump had won so soundly among white working class voters.
"I think that there needs to be a profound change in the way the Democratic Party does business," he said.
Mrs Clinton, meanwhile, recently told donors that she was poised to win before James Comey, the FBI director, intervened in the election by announcing he was reopening the investigation into her private email server.
An analysis conducted by her campaign blamed the loss on circumstances outside of their control.

Is Offshore Wind a Better Deal With Batteries?
A partnership between developer Bay State Wind and NEC Energy Solutions this month highlighted a growing push to pair energy storage with offshore wind.
Bay State Wind said it will work with NEC Energy Solutions to add batteries to an 800-megawatt offshore wind farm planned for 15 miles off the coast of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts.
The project will represent the world's largest wind‐paired energy storage system for commercial‐scale energy, said Bay State Wind, which is a joint partnership between the Danish power company Ørsted, formerly known as Dong, and U.S. transmission builder Eversource.
This month, Bay State Wind qualified for Title 41 of the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (FAST-41), making it the first and only offshore wind project, and one of only 38 infrastructure projects in the U.S., to receive FAST-41 status.
NEC will add 55 megawatts and 110 megawatt-hours of storage to the wind farm "to help the region in overcoming winter reliability challenges by delivering energy when it is needed most and help to reduce winter peak energy prices and price volatility," Bay State Wind said.
The developer highlighted the deal's potential to create new jobs, since NEC Energy Solutions was born from the ashes of A123, a Massachusetts-based company.
Bay State Wind also said the offshore wind and energy storage combination would help cut winter electricity prices in Massachusetts by approximately $158 million a year, as well as enhance grid stability by shifting energy delivery to better meet demand.
"The development of a robust battery storage system will help small businesses and consumers by ensuring a steady supply of energy, thereby reducing high‐demand energy spikes," said Mike Auseré, Eversource's vice president of business development.
With offshore wind developers looking to cut costs as quickly as possible, the decision to add extra expense to a project, in the form of batteries, might seem an odd one.
But Michael Guldbrandsten, a former analyst with MAKE Consulting, said the combination might actually improve offshore wind economics.
NEC's involvement with Bay State Wind "will be crucial to reduce costs associated with balancing demand and supply of power," he said. "Initiatives like this will become increasingly relevant for integration of offshore wind."
Last year, he noted, Ørsted moved to install a 2-megawatt power battery at one of its U.K. offshore projects, the 90-megawatt Burbo Bank wind farm, to provide frequency regulation services.

Thailand means different things to different people. Beyond the beaches and tourist spots lies a world of music still waiting to be discovered. Be it spaced out jazz, raw funk or the meditative sounds of the North East, Soundway has dug deep into the country's vinyl archives to present a broad range of vintage sounds that underlines Thailand's status as one of South East Asia's musical hot spots. From Thai classical to Luk Krung and Luk Thung – music that incorporated western influences such as jazz, surf guitar, ballroom and even Latin and African, this record is maybe the most astonishing release of 2010. You probably never heard music like this. Yet.

On 6 October 2015, during its Plenary session in Strasbourg (France), the European Parliament held a formal debate on the Death Penalty.
Ahead of the World Day against the Death Penalty, to be held on Saturday 10 October 2015, the members of the European Parliament discussed the EU's categorical opposition to the death penalty. All 28 EU member states oppose the death penalty, as it is one of the pre-conditions to join the European Union. Further, this opposition is enshrined in the EU treaties and is part of the fundamental values of the EU.
The European Union also issued its "EU Guidelines on the Death Penalty" in 2013 to reinforce its position. Further, the worldwide abolition of the death penalty is also cited in the newly adopted EU Action Plan for Democracy and Human Rights as one of the main points to tackle by the EU in its foreign relations.
Led by MEP Ms Valenciano, Chair of the EP's subcommittee on Human Rights, several members took the floor, and all of them without exception expressed their opposition to the death penalty, regardless of their country of origin or political affiliation. Throughout the debate MEPs asked the EU to further extend its efforts in abolishing the death Penalty worldwide, and to increase its public stance on the topic when engaging in bilateral relations with third countries, notably with the worst offenders such as China, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. The case of Ali Al-Nimr, a young Saudi sentenced to death by beheading and crucifixion for crimes he committed when he was 17 was raised twice during the debate.
The European Centre for Democracy and Human Rights (ECDHR) is very pleased to see this categorical opposition to the death penalty worldwide, coming from all the members of the Chamber. Like many MEPs, ECDHR believes that the Union can do more to eradicate the death penalty, especially in countries where it is linked to politicised sentences and where due process and fair trials are non-existent. As members noted, the EU should further raise this issues when engaging in diplomatic and bilateral / trade relations with third countries systematically violating Human Rights, including via the death penalty.
ECDHR live-tweeted the debate.
The full video of the debate (which took place on Tuesday 6 October at 19:15 ECT) can be web-streamed here.

Lotuko mythology
From Bvio.com
The Lotuko are an ethnic group from the Sudan.
The chief god is called Ajok; he is generally kind and benevolent, but can be angered. He once answered a woman's prayer for the resurrection of her son. Her husband, however, was angry and re-killed the child. Ajok was annoyed by his actions and swore to never resurrect any Lotuko again; thus, death is permanent. ca:Mitologia lotuko

Eggs in potato nests served with fresh veggies on the side. Kid-friendly meal that is super healthy and easy to prepare.
- 2-3 medium potatoes grated
- 1 teaspoon salt
- pinch of pepper to taste (optional)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
In a large bowl lined with a gauze sheet, grate the potatoes on the largest holes side.
When finished grating, bring the ends of the gauze sheet together to make a sack. Wring out the liquid while twisting the gauze really tight and squeezing and forcing most of the liquid out. *If you don't have a gauze sheet, you can use a paper towel.
Transfer the potatoes back into a ball and mix in the oil and salt. Add bit pepper to taste.
Take a muffin pan and coat with a bit of cooking oil spray or a bit of regular oil all around the edges.
Take the grated potato mixture and distribute equal amounts in the muffin pan. Press the potato mixture with your hands up the sides, until you form a nest.
Bake these at 425 F for about 15 minutes, until the potatoes start turning golden brown around the edges.
After you have baked the nests, remove from the oven. Crack your eggs in each of the nests.
Turn the oven down to 350 F and bake for about 10-15 minutes. Depending on how runny you want the eggs you can adjust the cooking time to less.
Serve these up with fresh veggies to your kids liking or simply add baby carrots and fresh cucumbers which are every kids favorite.

Fry a bit of bread in butter till it is a light brown colour, then cut it into heart-shaped pieces. Prepare a ragout with bits of tongue, sweetbread, fowl or game, truffles, Velute sauce, and reduced gravy. Put a spoonful of the ragout in each crouton, and over it a layer of fowl forcemeat half an inch thick; trim the edges neatly, glaze them with the egg yolks, and put them in a buttered fireproof dish in the oven for twenty minutes. Then glaze them with reduced stock and serve hot.
For a maigre dish use fish for the ragout and forcemeat.

Tallmadge, OH (PRWEB) March 25, 2016
Summit Racing Equipment now carries American Force Dualie Wheel Combos, Fab Fours bumpers and exterior accessories, and BD Diesel TapShifters for GM and Ford diesel pickups and SUVs.
American Force Dualie Wheel Combos
Available in over 40 styles, the Dualie Wheel Combos feature one-piece wheels forged from 6061 aluminum. Each combo comes with two aluminum front and four rear wheels, plus center caps and aluminum valve stems. Some applications come with two outer aluminum rear wheels backed with black powdercoated steel inner wheels.
Fab Fours Bumpers
All Fab Fours bumpers are designed to match a truck's body lines for a factory look, and are available with a two-stage black powdercoat finish or in natural steel for folks who want to paint the bumper to match their vehicle. Most Fab Fours front bumpers are available in three versions:
- Standard wraparound
- Pre-runner style with a grille loop made from two inch diameter tubing
- Full guard style with wing and grille guards made from 1.5 inch tubing
BD Diesel TapShifters
Some new diesel trucks come with a tap shifter from the factory that allows a truck owner to manually shift gears, drop down a gear or two for better exhaust braking when going down a long grade, or engage overdrive. BD Diesel's TapShifter provides that same transmission control for older Ford and GM diesel trucks. The supplied shift lever replaces the factory piece, and the control unit plugs into the stock transmission controller. Once installed, moving between forward gears is as easy as tapping +/– buttons.

Apples cooked in maple sirup have a very pleasing flavor. The sirup that remains in the pan is poured over the apples when they are served.
Sufficient to serve six.
Wash, peel, and core the apples. Bring the maple sirup to the boiling point in a saucepan. Drop the apples into the hot sirup, cook first on one side, and then turn and cook on the other. As soon as they become soft, remove from the sirup, pour the sirup over them, and serve.

Current Temperature
It has been one busy May for the music scene in Lethbridge. So I'm able to take a bit of a breather, but there are a couple of key shows coming up.
Celtic punk mainstays the Mahones make a long-awaited return to the Slice on Wednesday, May 17. They never get the turnout they deserve here, so I'm glad they are returning. Expect a lot of whiskey-drinking, Celtic-powered punk music with lots of energy accordion, whistles and punk intensity. They are celebrating 25 rocking the world with Celtic punk for the second year in a row in support of their new CDs "The Hunger and the Fight Parts 1 and 2"
Admission is $15.
The other big show of the week is the return of Geoff Berner and Kris Demeanor who play a ticketed event at the Owl Acoustic Lounge with Carolyn Mark on Saturday, May 20.
And pianist Jesse Plessis returns home from Montreal to play a couple of shows this week. The most interesting one is at the University Theatre, May 18 where he will be joining forces with Bente Hansen to perform the Beatles' classic "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" album in its entirety. The concert begins at 7 p.m. Tickets are $30.
Plessis has also set up a concert at Casa, May 18. Shadowinnower is a collaboration with Lisa Mulgrew which took third place in the Eckhardt-Gramatte Competition in Brandon. The concert begins at 7 p.m. Admission is $20 for adults and $10 for students.
For the complete opposite to that, AC DC tribute Who Made Who returns to Lethbridge to play Coyote Joe's, May 19 at 8:30 p.m. Admission is $10 in advance, $15 at the door.
If your are up for a road trip to Fort Macleod, Curt Young returns to Southern Alberta from his Edmonton home. He will be playing the blues at the Queen's Hotel with the Angel Sinners including Kiit Kiitoki. The show begins at 9 p.m. They will be shooting alive video of the show as well.
It is a great week to see local bands. The Mark Hall band plays country music at Casino Lethbridge, May 19 and 20. Tyler Bird's band Queen of the Worms will be rocking the Owl Acoustic Lounge, May 19. And Leon Barr returns to the stage to play the blues at the Mocha Cabana, May 19.
For something completely different, improvised soap opera Gay's Anatomy returns to Club Didi, May 19. The show begins at 9 p.m. Admission is $10.
Victoria-based singer songwriter Carolyn Mark loves to be on the road. The quirky and perky country/folk songstress just returned from a month-long tour of Europe with Rusty Ford and is getting ready to join Geoff Berner and Calgary poet laureate Kris Demeanor on an Alberta/B.C. tour which comes to the Owl Acoustic Lounge for a special ticketed event, Saturday, May 20.
"I've been doing the Amsterdam-Fort St. John tour which is a pretty popular touring circuit," Mark laughed from Vancouver.
"I was in Europe with Rusty Ford and I was touring northern B.C. with Twin Peaks," Mark observed.
It has been a while since she officially played Lethbridge.
"But the last time I was in Lethbridge was for Shaela Miller's wedding last summer," she said.
"I'm going to be spending a lot of time in Alberta this summer. I'll be working on Lance Loree's farm in between tours. I'll be doing chores — weeding and things like that on Mondays and Tuesday because those days are hard to book," she said.
She released her latest CD "Come! Back! Special!" in September.
"They're all songs I've been playing, so I thought I'd record them. I recorded them in New Mexico, California and Weimer, B.C.," she said.
"And we filmed a video for 'Get It Up' over the Calgary Stampede. Washboard Hank was in it. He should have been in it more. We shot it over the Calgary Stampede fireworks and it was the best day of my life without getting married," she laughed.
She is pleased with the CDs.
"They're all originals except for an Alejandro Escovedo cover called 'Last To Know' about the joys of touring," she said, noting that song spoke to her.
"I was stuck at home for a couple months in the winter and hating it, so I sublet the house and booked a couple of tours. Now I feel a lot better," she said, adding she loves touring with folk/punk/accordion player Geoff Berner and Kris Demeanor.
"I tour with them a couple times a year. I love it. We're always laughing," she said.
"I'm sure Geoff will have something political to say with so much going on. And I don't know if we'll have room for all of Kris's awards in the back of the Prius," she laughed.
"We'll play on each other's songs. But you have to make it sound better by playing rather than not playing. And there may even be some dance moves on stage," she promised.
Carolyn Mark, Geoff Berner and Kris Demeanor play the Owl Acoustic Lounge, Saturday, May 20 at 9 p.m. Admission is $10.
Peterborough-born singer songwriter Kayla Howran moved three times and finally overcame a serious case of writer's block to record her sophomore CD "Spare Parts" with producer and songwriter Colin Cripps.
Howran and Dylan Ireland come to the Slice to play an early show beginning at 8 p.m., Wednesday, May 24 in support of the new CD.
"I was just there in October, but I only released it two weeks ago," said Howran from a tour stop in Dauphin. Her last CD, "Pistol," was released in 2013.
Working with Cripps, a well-respected producer, who is also part of Blue Rodeo, was a long time coming.
"We've been friends for years and started talking about doing a CD together four years, ago, but I wasn't ready. I had horrible writer's block and couldn't come up with anything I wanted. When I was ready, i called him up and he was just as excited about it as he was back then," she said.
"Saying it was very cool is an understatement," she continued, adding Cripps plays all the lead guitar parts on the album.
"There was such a great vibe. He's so professional. It was so neat to sit and watch him work. He's so well put together. I'd play him a song and I'd watch him figuring out how it was going to work. He'd explain it and I'd just get it," she enthused.
She noted the lyrics are mostly about heartbreak.
"It's about relationships ending and not just romantic relationships," she said.
Howran moved to Toronto from Peterborough when she was 20 and moved back to Peterborough when she was 27, just recently moving to a cabin near a village of Cordova Mines north of Havelock in Southeastern, Ontario.
"I moved from a small city to a big city then back to a small city and now a village. But It's right on the river and I love to fish," she said.
"When I was living in Toronto, I saw the best players in the world. I was going out to see all of these players, but I never worked on my own music. Here there aren't as many distractions," she observed.
"My songs reflect more life experience and my musical style is changing. 'Pistols' was pretty much straight ahead honky tonk, now it's more alt country or some people are calling it folk roots rock," she said, noting she is very pleased with the result.
She is used to playing with a full band, but she is excited to play as a stripped-down duo. "Though we aren't really a duo because we don't write with each other. We each do our own sets and play on each other's songs. I sing background vocals's on Dylan's songs and he plays kick drum and lead guitar and sings harmonies on my songs," she said. "I don't know how to play solo. I started out playing in a band. With the duo, people pay more attention to the lyrics."
Hudson Falcons at Moose Hall
Long-standing New Jersey-based street punk icons Hudson Falcons made a great first impression during their first visit to Lethbridge, and indeed Alberta, May 11 at the Moose Hall.
They had an enthusiastic crowd of approximately 30 moshing in front of the stage.
Hudson Falcon, including frontman Mark Linskey, founding drummer Alyson Cina, guitarist Matty Davalo and bassist Nick Ferrero, sounded like Bob Mould jamming with Bruce Springstreen and the E Street band. They focused on more straight-ahead punk edged older material and were impressed the audience knew the songs.
Hudson Falcon struck quickly with a solid rock and roll shot to the downstairs regions, with unbelievably catchy and unbelievably tight musicianship and hair raising lyrics of being chased by the police in "Johnny Law," a great older song "Worker Fate" about "workers getting screwed over which I wrote 18 years ago," according to Linskey, trade unionism and a fantastic ode to working-class bars being closed down due to gentrification called "Monahans." A highlight was a slower, harrowing tales including "Long Live the King," about a freed gangster seeking revenge from a CD from a few years ago called "Dancing Underneath the Moonlight." In a similar vein, another highlight was "Jersey City Streets."
Linskey was alternately chewing nails and spitting venom while telling stories about the songs. While they were focusing on older material, they played several outstanding newer songs including "We'll Fight Back," one of several extremely literate and insightful songs preceded by diatribes about the working man's plight in the face of corporate greed and ignorance.
But there was some more lighthearted fare including the outstanding "Rich Kids Can't Play Rock and Roll." Hudson Falcons provided plenty of working class politics hit guitar solos and huge gang vocals.
Before calling it a night, Linskey brought out the old bluesman's trick, by playing slide guitar with a beer bottle, which translated well into the band's brand of punk and rock and roll.
They ended their set and the show before midnight with a hot cover of Stiff Little Fingers' "Alternative Ulster."
While I missed the Galacticas' opening set, I was just in time for Streetlight Saints, playing in front of the Galactica's banner. They played an energetic, incredibly fast and super tight set of straight ahead three chord punk punctuated by "oi's" and gang vocals. A couple highlights were a tribute to Princess Leia called "Sweet Prince," and and a hyperactive "First World Problems."
Windy City Opry at the Slice
As always, the Windy City Opry at the Slice had great music. The May 11 edition didn't have as great a turnout as usual, but there was still plenty of excellent music. While I missed Winnipeg musician Dave Quanbury, I caught most of Edmonton singer/songwriter John Guliak's set, arriving just as he invited Ryan "Skinny" Dyck on stage to add some beautifully spontaneous pedal steel guitar to a set featuring plenty of keyboards, accordion and solid bass.
Guliak told stories and strummed a little acoustic guitar, playing a set mostly of music from his three CDs. But he was winding down his set with a couple of covers including a Richard Thompson song.
Windy City Opry organizer Shaela Miller joined Guliak on stage to sing some spontaneous harmonies.
I left after an excellent version of his original song "Tryptych" as I didn't want to miss Kimberley MacGregor and Elliott Thomas at the Owl Acoustic Lounge.
I arrived in the middle of a long set break at the Owl Acoustic Lounge, May 11 where Edmontonians Kimberley MacGregor and Elliott Thomas were playing a songwriters in the round show with local musicians Ryan Phillips and Burning Bridge.
They were pretty much done, as the audience started to trickle away, but they played a special encore, playing a couple of songs each. Elliott Thomas played some deadly lap steel slide guitar, singing a touching version of Neil Young's "Long May You Run."
Kimberley MacGregor brandished her beautiful red electric guitar and belted out a hair raisingly beautifully bluesy version of a song I think was called "So Many Ways You Done Me Wrong."
Ryan Phillips of the Silkstones followed that with a slower, acoustic number, to which Thomas added subtle slide guitar.
Steve Foord also stayed in a the mellower mood for his song.
Elliott Thomas wound down the second set with another big, bluesy number, and more powerful , electrified lap steel.
Kimberley MacGregor brought the show to a close with a rousing version of my favourite Kimberley MacGregor song "Trouble."
South Country Fair Songwriters
I forgot how much fun the South Country Fair Songwriting competition is, if only because it shows how much talent there is in Southern Alberta. The event didn't happen last year, but it returned in style to the Slice, Sunday, May 7. A lot of people missed it, as the Slice was standing room only, as it usually is for the competition, for a more-or-less quiescent crowd. Host Corlee Torok was forced to shush some of them, as were the audience members, which I still find more distracting than people talking during a song.
A lot of people have been hard at work writing great songs. Judges George Arsene, Jesse Freed and John Wort Hannam were doing the devil's work of choosing the best song from an impressive slate of performers featuring a lot of familiar faces from the Lethbridge music scene like Jon Martin, Cathy Hawley, Megan Brown, George Fowler and several folks who have frequently played here including Carter Felker, Chris Gheran, Jay Bowcott and Amy Nelson. And some folks who returned to play like Michael Granzow and a couple I had't heard including Emily Triggs. Chris Drew and Maddie Conrad.
Most of the ones I saw accompanied themselves, but a few others brought accompanists.
The competition was so close, the judges added a fourth prize, which went to Chris Drew for the Whiskey Song. Cathey Hawley, who won the competition a few years ago, took third place. George Fowler won second place for his song Raven Bairne. Carter Felker, who has played Lethbridge a lot in the past couple of years won first place and the opportunity to play his song "Ain't Got Time For" on the south stage of the Fair. Fowler will also be playing his song on the South Stage during this year's Fair, July 21-23.
Artistic Director Jana Mackenzie and East stage co-ordinator Gillian announced some of the highlights of this years fair including Jaxon Haldane and Gordie Tentrees doing a tribute to Willie P Bennett, Eliza Doyle, Ben Rogers, Joe Nolan and the Dogs. Other highlights will be Scott Nolan, Lindsay Beaver and the 24th Street Wailers, Chicken-like Birds, Bad Pop and much more, which can be found at http://southcountryfair.com/.
Danny Brooks at the Slice
Barely a handful of people showed up to see Toronto born Texas based Texassissippi Soul Man Danny Brooks and his wife Lil Miss Debi at the Slice, May 6.
They played an impassioned set of Delta-style blues with Brooks on guitar and an array of harps as and Debi adding a variety of percussion, mostly from a cajon box drum. Brooks' impassioned voice that was equally soulful and blues with a Shel Silverstein tinge.
He played beautiful upbeat blues music, witching between several guitars including a battered acoustic and a beautiful resonator.
"Hard Working Man" was a highlight which ended the first set of the show.
Debi was singing a wonderful version of "Angel From Montgomery" by the time I called it a night.
The Lethbridge folk club wound down their season, May 6 at the Lethbridge College Cave with a great show from Edmonton/Saint Albert-based Back Porch Swing.
An attentive audience of approximately 60 enjoyed a set of jazz-tinged western swing, bluegrass and quirky country music from guitarist/vocalist Penny Malmberg, mandolinist/guitarist Jim Malmberg, violinist Cam Neufeld and upright bassist Kevin Jacobson.
Everybody got to solo, especially when Jim Malmberg traded his guitar for the mandolin.
I arrived in time to hear a quirky song about aging called "Muffin Top."
Penny Malmberg introduced the songs and told stories in addition to singing most of the lead vocals. As usual, Cam Neufeld played beautiful violin lines.
They happily fulfilled a request for a song about a pig called Francine who made a bid for freedom en route to the abattoir. Jim Malmberg played a hot acoustic guitar lead before exchanging it for the mandolin and playing sizzling leads on that including a medley of "What the Fox," which incorporated a wicked version of the "Spider-Man" theme song, which wound down the show.
One highlight was a song about canned music as was a bluegrass version of the Rolling Stones "Can't Always Get What You Want."
Sam Weber at the Owl
Not a lot of people were out and about on the weekend, at least not that I saw, though SoundGarden was packed for comedians Randy and Mr. Lahey of the Trailer Park Boys.
I missed that, but caught a couple excellent but poorly attended shows.
I caught the last couple songs from the Sam Weber band at the Owl Acoustic Lounge, Saturday, May 6.
The Saanich, B.C. trio including Sam Weber on guitar and vocals plus Marshall Wildman and Esme John, played an up tempo set of music which was equal parts, country, blues and rock and roll with a touch of funk and R and B.
Weber, not the Sam Weber from The Weber Brothers who return to the Slice, Sept. 11, played some excellent guitar including some beautiful slide on a slower song.
J Blissette at the Owl
The Owl Acoustic lounge had an excellent show, May 5, but I only caught the end of an energetic set from local alternative rock band J Blissette, who kicked off their new tour. The band, featuring Jackson Tiefenbach on electric 12-string guitar,guitarist Cory Fisher, bassist Arnaud Sparks and Matthew Rederberg, playing his last local show with the band on drums.
They played a solid set of groovy psychedelic rock tinged with elements of punk.
They were called back for an encore of some Pink Floyd.
Unfortunately I missed the Shiverettes and Snake River's opening sets.
Rodney De Croo at the Slice
A great candidate for best show of the year that nobody saw was the long-awaited return of Vancouver based songwriter/author Rodney DeCroo, who played the Slice, May 5.
I was one of a handful of people who caught an energetic and tortured set of dirty country and alternative rock, which mostly focused on DeCroo's great new CD "Old Tenement Man."
DeCroo and his hot band of lead guitar Bryce Jardine, drummer Ed Goodine, bassist Ken Nakamiki and drummer Sean McPherson were pretty much playing the album track by track.
DeCroo strummed a battered acoustic guitar and sang his powerfully tortured and plaintive lyrics about the downtrodden and forgotten, making the audience feel every little bit of pain of his characters. The band sounded like the bastard child of the Drive By Truckers, Steve Earle and Neil Young, especially because of Jardine's lead guitar sound.
One of my favourites, "Lou Reed On the Radio," was a highlight, as I expected. Jardine broke a guitar string , which gave DeCroo the opportunity to play a quick solo acoustic set including "Radio" from the new Cd while Jardine left the building to change his string.
A highlight of the first set was an older song "You Ain't No-One" which he played again as an encore for the second set which ended around 1 a.m. as the audience had doubled to about 12 people. He ended the first set on a slower, haunting note with "Ariel."
I arrived for the end of set two, which was louder and more boisterous. "Stupid Boy in a Stupid Town" was a highlight, and has people finally showed up. he brought back "Lou Reed on the Radio" and "You Ain't No One."

FAQ: What is RFID Blocking/Shield Card? RFID Blocking Card/Shield Card is the size of a credit card that is designed to protect personal information stored on credit cards, debit cards, smart cards, RFID driver's licenses and any other RFID Cards from e-pickpocket thieves using handheld RFID scanners. How does RFID Blocking/Shield Card work? RFID Blocking Card is composed of a circut board that disrupts the scanner from reading the RFID signals. There are outside and inside coating that is not rigid, so the card is very flexible. Keep Your Data Safe With RFID Blocking Card innovative circuit board interior, you can be sure that your card numbers, address, and other critical personal information is safe from nearby Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) scanners. The blocking card/shield card needs no battery. It draws energy from the scanner to power up and instantly creates an E-Field, a surround electronic field making all 13.56mhz cards invisible to the scanner. Once the scanner is out of range the blocking card/shield card de-powers. Simply carry this blocking card/shield card in your wallet and money clip and all 13.56mhz cards within range of its E-Field will be protected.
