Gone But Never Forgotten: A Tribute to Nujabes
n this day in 1974, Seba Jun aka Nujabes was born in Tokyo, Japan. He passed in an unfortunate traffic accident in 2010, when he was just 36 years old, but his legacy as a monumental hip-hop producer and DJ lives on to this day.
Nujabes' music can be described with a certain quote from Fosco Maraini:
"They contain beauty, of course, but first of all you must desire it and seek it out, and then, perhaps, in the end it may be granted you to find it. Then, if you find it, it will offer you subtleties unimagined elsewhere. The living, century-old expression of many ideas which we imagine we have only just discovered, which we think still belongs to the future."

Canada is the second largest country in the world with 10 million square kilometers of landmass. The country has a population of approximately 30 million people -- only one-tenth the population of the United States. Canada is a country composed of immigrants from all over the world .And its success is largely due to the contributions made by these immigrants.
Each year, Canada welcomes more than 200,000 new immigrants. The diversified backgrounds and cultures are what make Canada unique. No matter where are you from, once you are a landed immigrant you have all the rights of a Canadian citizen.
Your motive to go to Canada:
The most important question is: Why Canada?
Are you looking for a better quality of life, better education for you and your family members, better work environment and peaceful surrounding?

Why Canada? Well, we will answer this question together analyzing some interesting facts about this beautiful country.
Best overall quality of life:
In a 2008 quality-of-life ranking of 215 world cities by Mercer Human Resources Consulting, five Canadian cities ranked among the top 26. Canada has the best overall quality of life among the G7.
What is G7 ?
The G7 is the meeting of the finance ministers from a group of seven industrialized nations. It was formed in 1976, when Canada joined the Group of Six: France, Germany, Italy, Japan, United Kingdom, and United States.
As an economic and political group of the seven largest developed countries, this powerful group of nations does not include any developing nations.
G7 countries:
1. Canada
2. France
3. Germany
4. Italy
5. Japan

Innovative and Diverse:
In 2008, the IMD ranked Canada first among G7 countries for its ability to attract and retain talented workers to strengthen its workforce. Business-friendly immigration policies enable highly qualified newcomers to contribute their skills and talents to Canada and ensure a consistent supply of new knowledge workers.
Top Quality Education:
Canada ranks 2nd among 17 peer countries in education. Offering free primary and secondary education and subsidized post-secondary studies, Canada spends more on education than any industrial nation. Canadian universities and colleges have an excellent international reputation for high quality.

CONTROVERSIAL payday loans companies seemed willing to offer more than £1,600 to an undercover Mail reporter in just a few hours.
The UK payday loan industry, which hands out eight million short-term loans a year and is thought to be worth £2bn, has been told by the Government to clean up its act, or risk being stripped of their licences.
However, in just three hours we found companies across Hull – widely recognised as one of the UK's most deprived cities – apparently willing to lend us £1,630, with high APR, after we produced a fake bank statement, gas bill and wage slips bought over the internet as "proof" of address and earnings.
Going door-to-door around the city's money lenders, our reporter collected provisional offers of loans ranging from £130 to £500.
Our investigation shows just how easy it could be to obtain large sums of cash, despite not having the means to pay it back, potentially leading to crippling debt.
Hull East MP Karl Turner praised the Mail for highlighting the issue and pledged to urgently raise our "frightening" findings in Parliament.
Matthew Cawley, a consumer empowerment partnership officer at Hull and East Riding CAB. who shares the politician's concerns about payday loans, said: "We have seen a rise in the number of people coming to us with problems repaying payday loans.
"Our biggest concern is the number of people coming to us with more than one payday loan. People are taking out one payday loan to pay off another and it can quickly spiral into a big mess."
All but one of the lenders we visited said a formal credit check – which might indicate if someone had another payday loan or who was struggling with debts – was not required.
Instead, staff seemed happy either to offer us payday loans straightaway after seeing our fake paperwork and a genuine bank card – or asked us for another month's worth of statements, which could have been posted to us within just 24 hours.
Experts say payday loans rely on what is known in the banking sector as "continuous payment authority" (CPA).
Payday loan customers are required to allow their debit card details to be stored, which enables funds to be automatically deducted on a given day.
It works like a direct debit, but they are very difficult to cancel and they do not offer the same guarantee if the amount or payment date changes.
Mr Cawley was unable to discuss specific lenders, but explained how CPA is usually the source of people's financial turmoil.
He said: "Direct debits, such as for a gym membership for example, can be cancelled, with a quick call to the bank.
"But with CPA, it is different. Often, it can be very difficult to cancel.
"It tends to be the cause of most problems we see at the CAB, either because someone's pay doesn't go in on time, or the lender decides to take out a higher amount or perhaps chooses to take the cash earlier than agreed.
"CPA can kick off a lot of extra debts – for example, in bank charges. It can very quickly snowball out of control."
Two of the payday lenders we visited were in Mr Turner's constituency.
He said: "Payday loan companies are only too glad to lend to people that simply cannot afford to make repayments.
"I have a fair amount of case work on this issue. Unfortunately, the law provides for interest rates and APR to be unlimited providing the lender complies with the relevant regulations.
"I'm also interested in the fact that fraudulent identification documents are easily obtainable online."

Stellenbosch Node Seminar: Dr Jeff Murugan (UCT)
NITheP cordially invites you to a seminar by:

University of Cape Town
Date: Wednesday 15 August 2012
Time: 14:00
Venue: NITheP Stellenbosch Node, Seminar Room
TITLE: What can gravity teach us about condensed matter?
ABSTRACT: Since its beginnings in 1997, the AdS/CFT correspondence has found application in a variety of phenomena; not only in quantum gravity but also, increasingly in fields as diverse as low energy QCD (like the quark-gluon plasma at RHIC and the ALICE experiment at the LHC) and condensed matter (like the physics of strange metals and compressible Fermi surfaces). In most cases, these applications of the AdS/CFT correspondence to condensed matter hinge on the idea that, if physics in AdS is always holographic, then we can consider simple theories in AdS, which should, at least in principle, be dual to some strongly coupled conformal field theories. In this talk we investigate whether it is possible to find a controlled example of such an AdS/CMT correspondence in the context of string theory

What is it?
Physiotherapy is recognised as a safe and effective way of helping people restore normal movement and function through manual therapy, exercise, education and advice. In a nutshell it helps the pain go away so you can return to the things that you love. It also plays a key role in getting people back to sport and it helps to reduce the risk of any recurrence later down the line.
What to expect?
All our physiotherapists have extensive musculoskeletal experience meaning that they are well placed to deal with any muscular, bone or joint concerns you may have. At your initial appointment we will start by having a chat with you to work out what your concerns are and just importantly what you hope to achieve in the future.
From there the fun will begin as together, you and your physiotherapist, will work out a plan to get you feeling fitter, stronger and healthier than you were even before the onset of your pain so you are ready for all life has to offer in the future.
This focus on not just reducing the pain but working on areas where you might be a little stiff or weak is what sets us apart from the rest as we believe the goal of all treatment should be to prevent future issues.
Who is it for?
It is for anyone with muscular, joint or bone problems alongside nerve pain and balance issues. It doesn't matter whether your pain has been present for a day, a month or for years, our team will be able to help you using the most up to date evidence based research. Some of the common conditions we treat at All Things Physio include:
- Back Pain
- Ligament Sprains and Tears
- Sports Injuries
- Neck Pain
- Arthritis (Wear and Tear)
- Post-Operative Rehab
- Muscle Strains and Tears
- Tendinopathy / Tendonitis
- Soft Tissue Injuries

I love my little creative space. Operative word - little. But - I'm very happy to have it! And it's MINE all mine. The entire room! It's green and pink and black and white and I can do anything in there I want. I can create to my heart's desire. I love it.
Well, last week, Justin decided he needed a new desk in his room. And went out and bought one. And proceeded to dump every stick of furniture he didn't want in his room any more - into MY SPACE! Literally! I walked up the stairs, and there it all was.
First I got mad. Then I was in a state of despair, cause I really needed in there to work and I couldn't even ENTER! Then the adrenaline kicked in. Good thing - because I had no clue what I was going to do.
Well, I started thinking. I had sooooooo many new things from our vacation that needed homes. So - long story short, when life gives you lemons . . . make some lemonade! It needed to be reworked and this was the kick in the rear I needed to get it done. So here is my re-done studio. It's more crowded than ever - but it's still my space and I love it! It makes me GRIN!
Here is the culprit I had to redo the entire room for. But I love it!
I bought her vintage dress at an antique store in Colorado Springs.
And bought her apron at Anthropology.
I'm going to add some sassy black lace to it, to spiff it up a bit.
Who knew you could have such fun with an old dress form!
Well, that about covers what's new. Hope you enjoyed the tour. I love my room, but am still planning on toning down the color in January. We'll see! Stayed tuned!
Have a great weekend everyone! Hugs!

Above, Jenny and Thomas Trock
December 2017 – "Lord, please hold back the rain," Thomas prayed, "long enough for us to minister to our child."
As their plane landed in Rwanda during the height of the rainy season, Thomas and Jenny Trock prayed earnestly. Could the monsoons miraculously stop long enough for a home visit with Musa, the little boy they sponsored through Africa New Life Ministries?
The American couple headed to their hotel and waited on God. To their amazement, they awoke to a cloudy, but rainless, day. With their guide's help, the Trocks headed to the child's remote village.
Paved streets became muddy roads; muddy roads became deeply rutted cart paths. The Trocks and their guide walked from that point, but the rains held off. The cart path surrendered to a rain-soaked footpath, almost impossible to travel laden with their gifts and heavy packages. Finally, the village came into view, and they met Musa and his mother.
Muslim mom meets JesusFor the child's family, the Trocks and the gifts they brought were lifesavers, but the love with which the gifts were given impacted the Muslim mother even more.
"I want to know the God of people who came so far to meet my son and bring us food," she cried.
For the Trocks, it was sobering. God was so big; they felt so insignificant. Yet, He used them anyway.
"As we sat on their bench, really just a plank," recounted Jenny, "we felt humbled to be part of that moment. We'd come full circle.
"The very person who introduced us to Africa New Life in a large assembly years back was assigned by God's providence as our guide. We hadn't met him personally until now, but his testimony inspired us, and in turn, we were there together as this Muslim woman accepted Christ."
The joy experienced in such moments compels the Trocks to abandon their own agenda in exchange for God's. And though they admit total surrender is a daily struggle, it surely makes for exciting adventures.
Married for over almost 25 years now, Thomas and Jenny met while he worked in Jenny's Mississippi hometown as a biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. They eventually transferred to the mountains of the American Northwest.
Jenny, an accountant by trade, described Thomas as the bold one. "I'm not the adventurer; he's the initiator. He has such an adventurous spirit, but I've learned to willingly go outside my comfort zone."
Thomas's love of outdoor adventures led him to create Mountain Cathedrals (thomastrock.com), where he writes about the wildlife and nature he loves. The website points toward the God of the magnificent creations artfully portrayed in Thomas's blogs.
"As a scientist, the more I see and discover, it's obvious there was intelligent design," declared Thomas. "At the cellular level and even below, so much design points to an Intelligent Designer.
Cell block salvation"That's why I created my website," Thomas explained. "Hopefully, people will see there's something bigger than what we can explain through human understanding."
That hope drives every avenue of the Trocks' lives, including the prison ministry Thomas joined two decades back.
"On my first visit, I remember thinking, I'm never coming back here again," Thomas laughed. "But one guy came up, shook my hand, and said, 'Thanks for taking time to come up and visit us.' His words stuck with me, so I went back one more week." And he's still going back.
This ministry birthed Jesus in Prison, Thomas's book about God saving, healing, and changing men inside those prison walls. Using testimonies and Scripture, the book offers Christ's hope to people who think they are beyond it.
"Every time I speak in prison, I share the gospel, the simple, timeless beauty of the cross," Thomas said. "No matter what we discuss – forgiveness, addiction, or whatever – if we don't share Jesus, it's all worthless works. He's our foundation."
Christ is definitely the foundation on which the Trocks build their service-centered lives. Removing television from their home in 1993 was a turning point in their commitment to investing their lives in kingdom work.
"It's radical for some, I guess; but Moses, in Psalm 90, prayed the Lord would teach us to number our days to gain a heart of wisdom," Thomas said. "We pray for wisdom just about every day, and to redeem the time (number our days). Hopefully, we used at least some of the thousands of hours we would have spent watching TV over these past decades to instead seek first Him and His kingdom."
Indeed, the Trocks have used their time wisely, serving so many with passion and humility. Their love of Christ continually drives them to share Jesus with as many as possible in the time allotted.
Serving seniors, vets, and victimsIn their allotted time, Thomas and Jenny travel on mission trips, in and out of America. And both work with senior citizens.
"It's not really a ministry to the elderly though; it's friendship," said Jenny. "We love the elderly and simply enjoy being with them. It's just building relationships."
The Trocks also built relationships through ministries like Operation Heal Our Patriots, sponsored by Franklin Graham and Samaritan's Purse.
"Our hearts were always for veterans. We work with them here in a veteran's fishing program," said Thomas. "But through Operation Heal Our Patriots, we spent a month in Port Alsworth, Alaska, as support staff during the ministry's intensive couples' therapy for veterans and their spouses.
"The entire town of about 200 people and the staff lined up on the airstrip, waving American flags to welcome the vets and spouses," Thomas continued. "The vets said, 'We never had anyone welcome us home. We didn't even know people cared.' That scene still brings tears to my eyes."
The Trocks' compassion led them to take a chaplaincy course through the Billy Graham Evangelical Association's Rapid Response Team.
"I wasn't sure I'd be good at the chaplaincy thing," Jenny confessed, "but I knew I could listen and love people and tell them how much God loves them."
Through the RRT, the Trocks were deployed to Houston, Texas, where they helped people after the recent devastation of Hurricane Harvey.
"We were both privileged to lead someone to the Lord there," said Thomas. "We also got to see God do His trademark thing of turning something bad into something good."
Although repeatedly discounting their efforts, the Trocks obviously live by that same trademark.
"I wish I honored Jesus in all I do, but I don't," Thomas admitted. "I truly don't have a lot of ability, but if I'll just make myself available for God to use, He makes up the difference in my lack."
Jenny agreed, "We feel like we do very little, not nearly enough, so we just want to be available. After all, there's no better feeling than knowing we are exactly where He wants us to be."

Fundraising: Support an Organization with Coffee
The two biggest problems with fundraising is having to sell items that nobody wants at too high of a price or selling a product that people love, but can only purchase during the fundraising campaigns.
We have created a solution to both problems. Your organization can sell our great coffees at a price on par with what similar coffees can be purchased for at the store and every time an organization's customer returns to our web site and orders, the organization receives a financial benefit. We call it "perpetual fundraising". Perpetual Fundraising provides an organization the opportunity to leverage the efforts of their initial sale into ongoing sales that support their organization.
For more information, please call Mark Truitt at 800.777.8581.

One of the most exciting things for me about going to new places is the food, and Africa was no exception. On arrival, I knew there were a few things that I had to try such as matooke (steamed green bananas) and the infamous meat stew, so I dove right in. The matooke which turns into a yellowish mash after steaming is definitely an interesting concoction. I think the best representation of matooke is probably a potato with a hint of sweetness. It tastes okay and some ground nut sauce (non-sweetened peanut butter) definitely improves the taste.
Next, we have the cow intestine which sounds as bad as it tastes. It doesn't help that it looks like a huge snail and is chewier than cow tongue. I really didn't think that could ever happen.
The meat stew certainly makes up for the cow intestine. Oh, the meat stew… If I had to choose a last meal to finish off my life, I think the meat stew would be in contention. I really don't know what makes it so delicious but it's served with fries and it's just good.
Now, I can't mention food without mentioning the Rolex. You are probably thinking, "yes, you can mention food without mentioning a watch company" but please let me explain. The rolex is the Ugandan equivelent to a breakfast burrito. The best part about it is the chipati which is similar but far better than a tortilla. I can't really describe it other than unhealthy, but I am excited on bringing a recipe back to the states so I can replicate Africa all of the time. Next, they take the chipati and throw it on a fryer with eggs, onions and some salt. After that, they take some tomatoes and wrap it all together. For $.45, I don't think I could ask for a better meal.
Ugandan rolex
Lastly, we have the pork. Africans love their pork and I can't blame them one bit. They bbq the pork and serve it on skewers with tomatoes and chili seasoning. My first run in with the pork was at an infamous restaurant called "Deep Blue". The place is known for its pork and all of my ex-pat friends rave about it. We go to Deep Blue on a Friday night and order up 15 skewers for the entire table. It is quite obvious that it's taking longer than normal as we close off the first hour being there without any food. Finally, the food arrives and we delve in. Not 5 minutes after we started eating, our ex-pat friend tells the waitress, "This pork is not from here, it's not Deep Blue quality". The waitress tries to cover it up but our friend has no intention of backing down. Finally, our friend calls over the manager, and the manager admits that they ran out of pork and purchased the pork down the street at another restaurant. How can I pork place run out of pork? Needless to say, I thought it was excellent regardless of being important, so I can't wait until we go back for the real deal.
That's mostly it for the food. I could mention the pizza but there's nothing really to talk about there. It's not the same.
Other than eating food, I've started taking tennis lessons. Yeah, it was definitely a random move. I met a guy named Moses at a local African music concert who is an Ugandan Olympic hopeful and gives lessons, so I decided there's no better time as now. The first lesson was quite eye opening to my need for more lessons but it was really fun and am trying to get them two times a week.
That's all for this week. I have so many more stories but not enough time to share them all. Oh well!

Danish handball is a success story, when you talk about the top of the top.
The men's national team won silver at a successful EHF EURO 2014 on home ground with attracted huge interest from fans, spectators and media alike in January, and the women took bronze at the World Championship in Serbia in December last year.
However, despite this success, the Danish Handball Federation (DHF) has lost around 2,000 members every year over the past ten years.
This may come as a surprise, as successful national teams should provide sufficient role models for young people.
"But this is not the way it works. Actually, a PHD thesis we analysed concluded that there is no direct connection between success for the elite and the inrush of new players.
"When (Danish tennis player) Caroline Wozniacki was no.1 in the world, many people did start to play tennis, but the number soon dropped to the level before."
The man saying this is Lars Brønserud, head of the DHF's new project "Break the Curve" (Knaek Kurven in Danish), a campaign that has just been launched and which runs until the end of 2017.
How seriously the decrease in the number of active handball players is taken by the federation is emphasised by the fact that 8.4 million Danish kroner, close to 1.2 million euro, are being invested.
"The records show that all organised sports in the country are losing members," Lars Brønserud tells eurohandball.com.
"To me and – I dare say – to Danish Handball it will be a huge success, if we can make the curve become stagnant and hold on to the number of handball players we have here and now," Jørgen Rolander, Vice President in the Danish Handball Federation recently told the federation´s official magazine Håndbold and Brønderud confirms this objective.
"Yes, our first aim is to stop the fall in the number of players. After that we can hopefully get further," he says.
Primary goal: Get the clubs involved
The campaign consists of four main fields: Handball in schools, club building, the age group 2000/01 and education of mentors.
"Out of those, club building is the central part, as it is all about getting the clubs involved," explains Brønserud.
Club building in this respect consists of three steps, called 'running the club', 'strategy for volunteers' and 'developing the handball product'.
'Running the club' includes working out a plan for the year in the club and a description of the various tasks in a handball club. "That can be simple things such as player lists, getting teams signed up for tournaments, calling general assemblies etc." says Brønserud.
The strategy for volunteers focuses on attracting and keeping voluntary coaches, officials, board members etc.
"Recent research has shown that there have never been so many people doing voluntary work in Denmark, as there are right now, and it is a question of benefitting from that.
"It is a question of telling people exactly what task they are asked to take on them, and how much time they will need to spend on it. If you do that, it is pretty easy to get volunteers," says Brønserud.
"Developing the handball product is a question of what the clubs have to offer. Often people stop playing handball because it was not what they expected.
"The training may have been too hard, or they may have been separated from their friends, because the elite is separated from the rest of the club, or they may simply have found other interests.
"Those are all things we have to look at, as it is not only a question of getting people to play handball in our clubs, but also to keep them there," emphasises Brønserud.
"Regarding handball in schools we would like the clubs to approach the schools and introduce them to handball.
"We have good relations to schools already, and we would like to extend that, for instance by showing that handball does not only have to be played the way they see it on TV on a 20x40 metre court, but for example as four against four on a smaller court.
"Here we also use softer balls like the ones used in street handball in order not to scare the kids away."
The purpose of the project concerning the potential players born in 2000 and 2001 is to analyse the habits and wishes of those who are entering their teenage years right now.
Holding on to the teenagers
"All experience shows that the largest defection arises when the kids become teenagers. This does not only apply to handball, but also to football and to all other team sports.
"In order to try and prevent this we want to find out what the players of that age want. For that purpose we hope to get 1000 players from that age group to take part in an ongoing survey, says Lars Brønserud.
"The idea behind the last point, educating mentors, is that many experienced coaches may have retired from active duty, because they no longer have the time to coach a team of their own, but they may still have some hours to spare.
"We would like to educate those to be mentors for coaches who could benefit from having a mentor to support and guide them," he explains.
A successful start
Losing 20,000 handball players over ten years in a country with a population of less than 5.7 million people calls for an initiative to break the negative trend, and so far the campaign seems to become a success.
"We have had kick-off events in six places all over Denmark in the spring, and we have been extremely well received everywhere.
"In the near future we are going to visit more than 450 clubs, and 230 clubs have already signed up for the project club building, while more than 600 teenagers have signed up for the project with the age group 2000/01," states Lars Brønserud.

Five interesting facts about music artist St. Vincent
St. Vincent is set to perform at this year's Galway International Arts Festival's Big Top. Here are five facts you may not know about the rock guitarist and singer.
1) Her real name is Annie Erin Clark
In a music industry populated with eccentric stage names, Annie Clark has revealed the inspiration for her moniker comes from a Nick Cave song, 'There She Goes my Beautiful World', which refers to the hospital in which poet Dylan Thomas died. The reference is to the line - "And Dylan Thomas died drunk in / St. Vincent's hospital".
2) A Grammy winner, St. Vincent won her first Grammy this year
St. Vincent won the 'Best Alternative Music Album Award' at the Grammys for her self-titled 2014 album St Vincent. She edged out Indie powerhouses Arcade Fire, Alt-J, Cage the Elephant and Jack White to walk away with the award. We have a feeling this could be the first of many!
3) St. Vincent's music was featured on two of the Twilight movies
She collaborated with the acclaimed Indie folk band Bon Iver on a beautiful track called 'Roslyn' for the second Twilight movie. Her second track, 'The Antidote', was written for and appeared on The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2.
4) At age fifteen, her summer job was a tour manager for her uncle's band
Her uncle, a jazz musician named Tuck Andress, invited Clark to tour manage his band, Tuck and Patti. Clark accompanied the band on tours to China, Japan and Russia.
5) She has performed a haunting rendition of cult hit 'Lithium' with Nirvana
St. Vincent fronted Nirvana, performing lead vocals on 'Lithium' at the 29th Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony.

How many of us feel like this??
But what we REALLY want is to feel like this??
But how do we get there??
As an entrepreneur, photographer, and stay-at-home mama… I can appreciate the value of productivity, drive and a positive attitude. {Emphasis on the positive attitude!!} But some mornings? I'm just not feelin' it!
Days like that I find that these few tips tend to help! {A lot of them can be found on http://www.brighthub.com/office/entrepreneurs/articles/64163.aspx}
- Plan Your Day – Planning your day the night before with to-do lists is a great idea. People tend to follow lists better than go at it with no direction. Never make that to-do list overwhelming. If you do, you'll never complete the entire list. If an item or two aren't accomplished? Simply add them to tomorrows list! http://www.brighthub.com/office/entrepreneurs/articles/64163.aspx
- Take a Shower – Don't you wish we all had those machines like the cartoon family the Jetsons? Boy that machine did it all and they just glided through it to obtain perfect hair and they were all dressed to go. Since that machine hasn't been invented yet, take a shower and use a moderate water temperature. Too much hot water will only result in lower energy. http://www.brighthub.com/office/entrepreneurs/articles/64163.aspx
- Eat Breakfast – Everyone has time for something healthy, even if it's fruit and toast. Your body needs food to create brain-energy so don't skip breakfast. http://www.brighthub.com/office/entrepreneurs/articles/64163.aspx
- Skip the Caffeine – Really? Many caffeine addicts admit if they don't keep drinking it all day, they lose that caffeine high. Nothing is worse than an energy bomb that needs to be revitalized through more indulgence. http://www.brighthub.com/office/entrepreneurs/articles/64163.aspx
- Get Moving – Take a walk or simply move around to get the blood flowing. It's amazing what a bit of fresh air can do for your body, mind and soul. So get up and get outside. {Or just walk around the office a bit if heading outdoors for a bit isn't an option!}
- Learn a New Word – It's always good to keep a handy new word calendar at your workspace and do take the time to understand it and use it in a sentence. If you can, use it during the day in reports, emails, or conversation with co-workers. It'll help keep that beautiful brain sharp! http://www.brighthub.com/office/entrepreneurs/articles/64163.aspx
- Call in Reinforcements – You have a team of friends and cheerleaders. On occasion you may want to call on them for their ability to pump… you up! {Hah! Are you old enough to get that??}
- Indulge in Simple Pleasures – Whether your happy place can be found in a decadent bite of chocolate or through a date night with your significant other… make it happen! Rejuvenate yourself. Pamper yourself. I know! It's often challenging to justify behavior like this, but the fact is, 'we need to see ourselves as deserving (and needing) solitude and regeneration to replace the energy we so freely give away.' Often, a simple moment of prayer or meditation can work wonders.
- Share the Love – Giving to others is a funny thing . When we give to others, we bring more joy, happiness, and peace to our own lives. Dieter F. Uchtdorf explains it beautifully: 'As we lose ourselves in service of others, we discover our own lives and our own happiness.'
I know I'm not alone, so I'd love to hear what helps you switch gears and gets you in the mood to move… even on Mondays!! And in the meantime…
Indulge in something spectacular with Ashtyn Jade!
Give us a call to discover more!
…the soul made visible…

Your Dog Health
Care Information Resource
- for all your
dog's health care needs!
by Brigitte Smith
If you've ever been to a CPR class, you're undoubtedly familiar
with the basics of human mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. First, check
to make sure the patient has a clear airway, then check to see if the patient
is breathing, check whether the patient has a heartbeat and, if the patient
awakens during the process, be careful that you don't get bitten by the
The American Red Cross and numerous other first aid organizations around
the world have been instructing people in CPR
for pets for quite some time now and has classes that include
all manner of first aid, including mouth-to-snout resuscitation.
The procedure is similar to traditional mouth-to-mouth resuscitation
for humans, with the main difference being that the person performing the
procedure will close the pet's mouth and instead provide breaths into
the pet's nose. Knowing how to perform mouth-to-snout resuscitation
on your pet could literally save its life.
In addition to the mouth-to-snout procedure, dogs can have chest compressions
performed in an emergency where the heart stops. Learning and knowing
these techniques can save the life of a dog in distress and let him live
to chase rabbits or play fetch another day.
According to a story run on The Scoop (a website that reports on dogs
in the news) in March 2002 a dog in Walla Walla, Washington that was accidentally
choked nearly to death was saved by a quick-acting person who was trained
in mouth-to-snout.
After being revived, the dog was treated at the Walla Walla Associated
Veterinary Clinic and released.
So far as I'm aware, this was the start of a new trend which extends
CPR training to cover pets as well as humans. Pet CPR is now being
taught by organizations all over the world, organizations that formerly
provided only traditional CPR training and certification. If you're
interested in taking these classes yourself, or finding out whether they're
available in your area, contact your local Red Cross. The life you
save may be your own pet's.

on your pet, see http://www.HealthyHappyDogs.com/CPR

This is Takayasu, one of my current favorite sumo wrestlers training some of the younger wrestlers at a recent even… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
It seems there will be two Captain Marvels in the upcoming movie.
According to Variety, Jude Law has joined the cast of Captain Marvel in the role of Doctor Walter Lawson, a.k.a. Mar-Vell. Marvel Studios had no comment on the news.
Let me fill some of you in, Carol Danvers – who will be played by Brie Larson in the film – is the second character to use the moniker of Captain Marvel. The first was Doctor Walter Lawson who was actually a spy for the alien race the Kree. After he helped the humans a few too many times he was sentenced to death for treason, but escaped and returned to Earth where he became a full-time hero. Apparently, in the film he will serve as a mentor to Danvers as she begins to learn her powers.
This is extra intriguing as it has already been revealed that the Skrull alien race will appear in the movie, and the Kree-Skrull wars have been the motivation of many story arcs in the comics.
With the film set in the 1990s, my guess is we're going to find out by the end of the film that someone in the MCU has been a shape-shifting Skrull all along. As Captain Marvel hits theaters between Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4 on March 8, 2019, I'm thinking the fourth team film will be dealing with this news.
Now to see how the Kree fit into all this. Last time we saw them on the big screen was in Guardians of the Galaxy.

Victoria Secret's Leomie Anderson Skin Care Routine
Leomie Anderson is one of the most influential models around these days — she started on the catwalk for Marc Jacobs and now you can see her as a Victoria's Secret Angel – a dream amongst models. She is represented by giants of the modelling agency world and at 24 years old she is highly requested. Being a strong voice against racism (in particular, racism in the fashion world) adds to this combination of beauty and brains.
From head to toe, she always carries herself with grace and beauty — but of course there are a couple staple products in her make-up bag to keep her perfect! In case you were wondering, Leomie told-all in a recent interview with Into the Gloss, revealing her staple and go-to products. Are you curious? Here they are! Now step up your game and take care of your body as well!
On hair care:
Although she loves her real hair, admits to using extensions – and she has also been relaxing her hair since the tender age of 12 (though she is adamant it is nothing but a choice – not a bending to beauty standards. She believes everyone should feel free about how they carry their hair. To keep that beautiful hair shiny and healthy she admits to loving the Kiehl's Amino Acid line – both shampoo and conditioner. These provide wheat protein (for volume and density) along with pure coconut oil - a super conditioning mix that will tame and soften any wild hair!
Keeping that flawless skin
It's no wonder that Leomie knows what's best on make-up. On a daily basis, she only uses mascara and does her brows - for perfected, simple, on-the-go look. To thicken out and elongated her already beautiful eyelashes she uses the Lancôme Grandiôse Mascara and for her eyebrows, she prefers the brand Benefit all the way — using the Gimme Brow in Medium just to quickly draw out a shape using the Precisely, My Brow Pencil for a fuller effect, perfected finish.
She advises all of us to check out the Bobbi Brown Cream Shadow Stick in the colour Bark - it's a product you can apply directly, mix with other colours and is even perfect for a simple, smokey look (just dab a bit of product on your eyelids and smoke it towards your eyebrows – fingers
We know how hard it is to find a good blush colour for our darker cheeksbut she's got that covered too! The Cover FX Click Color Corrector in Brick is her staple blush. Yes, you read it right - it is a concealer but that colour works wonders on darker skin. Brilliant and simple solution! For foundation, Leomie elects the Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick as the all-rounder. She uses various colours of these on different areas of the face — "Cool Warm" on the main area, "Espresso" for contour and "Cool Almond" as concealer. That is what provides perfect contour and skin coverage. Hey, she always looks so fine that I'll take her word for it!
On skincare
For flawless skin, Leomie recommends the Bioré Charcoal Facial Cleanser - get rid of blemishes and get a smooth finish after washing your face with this magnificent cleanser.
To hydrate right after cleansing, she swore by Kiehl's Ultra Facial Cream as the finishing touch!
The final tip - and a very good one (well she knows what she's talking about! – this beauty quite simple... You know how you apply baby oil on your legs to keep them moisturized and shiny but after a while the effect seems to disappear? Well, Leomie has the solution – grab some Soap & Glory Righteous Body Butter and add some drops of that baby oil you surely have somewhere near you... The shine and moisture won't go away any longer because the Body Butter will keep the oil right where it belongs – on your skin! That is splendid for legs as she tells and we can certainly check that one out easily! Thank you for the tip Ms Anderson!
Amazing tips and fantastic choices — thank you Leomie! And keep up the good work!

Joint Academy Director on Cup win.Neil Critchley, the joint Crewe Alexandra Academy Director, has praised the way the Railwaymen overcame Carlisle United in the First Round of the F.A. Youth Cup last night. The Alex needed extra-time to see off the impressive Cumbrians, but eventually secured a 2-1 at Gresty Road.
Second year-scholar Billy Waters netted the winning goal for the Railwaymen, after Brandon Moores had earlier brought the Alex level in the game and sent the match in to extra-time after good linkup play with Liam Wilson.
Critch was left pleased with the spirit of the boys on what is always a tough night for the Alex youngsters. Speaking after the game, he told Crewe Alex Player: ""We got there in the end. I was delighted with the performance because we played good football throughout the game and played with real intensity. The Youth Cup nights are difficult because you don't know what you are going to get from the boys, but I was impressed with them.
"A lot of our boys have never played on our pitch here at Gresty Road before and that it isn't easy. But right from the start the boys played with real courage and didn't shy away from anything.
"But credit must go to Carlisle because they came here with a game plan and made it difficult for us. They went a goal a up but thankfully we got back in to the game thanks to a terrific team move involving Liam Wilson and Brandon Moores.
"We needed it at that time and the boys have played a lovely give and go in their own half to slide Brandon in who has put it right in to the bottom corner with his weaker foot.
"Then in extra time Billy, who I thought was terrific throughout the game, has also scored a special goal from outside the box with his weaker foot. In the end it took a special goal to beat their keeper because he was excellent.
"We needed to dig in and defend though, and our keeper Robbie Johnson has had to make a really good save at the death to win the game for us.
"It is a really good learning curve for us. I thought we played some really good football and I think anybody that came to the game would have enjoyed a real good game of football."

The Fourth of July has been my favorite holiday for as long as I can remember. I love the relaxed summer days, cooking out, and spending time outdoors with family and friends. And I especially love fireworks…thankfully so do my girls.
We don't miss a fireworks show, but instead of just watching it's also fun to join in the play. In the past we've made fireworks play dough, fireworks rings and more.
This year we upped the fun level with these awesome fireworks straw rockets. They take just a couple of minutes to make, and kids LOVE launching them.
- Straw
- Small strip of paper (approximately 1.5 x 3.5 inches)
- Tape
- Pipe cleaners or curling ribbon
If you've never made straw rockets before The Pleasantest Thing has a step-by-step tutorial.
Once we rolled our paper around the straw and secured it with tape, we taped our "fireworks" decorations to the paper about .5 inch from the end. Then we folded over the paper and secured it again with tape.
The first time we tested our rockets Lovey liked experimenting to see how the weight of the different straw rockets impacted how far they would travel.
And she had fun launching them all over the house, including at me. 🙂
Make a whole set of these for your Fourth of July cookout and watch the kids (and adults) have a blast while they wait for the real fireworks to begin.

Japan Nuclear Crisis: Highest Radiation Levels Detected in Seawater
(TOKYO) -- Radiation levels in the seawater outside the crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in Japan reached their highest levels yet Wednesday morning.
Nuclear safety officials said the seawater near the plant contains 3,335 times the normal amount of radioactive iodine.
Now, government officials are considering draping special tarps over three of the reactors to contain the radiation. It's a plan that's never been tried before and is not without risk because officials don't want more pressure to build up.
To assist in containment efforts, the U.S. government is sending radiation-hardened robots to reach areas too dangerous for workers.
Earlier this week, officials acknowledged highly dangerous plutonium was found in soil near the reactors.
Increased levels of radiation have also been detected in tap water and vegetables.
Meanwhile, Masataka Shimizu, president of Tokyo Electric Power Co., the company that operates the plant, has been hospitalized with hypertension, according to TEPCO spokesman Naoki Tsunoda.
It is the latest in a series of setbacks and criticism the company has faced after the 9.0 earthquake and tsunami knocked out the reactor's cooling system on March 11.

THE beautiful Lloen Peninsula is an over-50s holiday hotspot.
The peninsula, in the western shores of Gwynedd, was named the fourth most popular UK holiday destination in an internet poll.
The beauty spot received more than 10pc of votes in a survey beating destinations such as London and Stratford-upon-Avon.
Only Whitby with 19pc, Edinburgh (16pc) and Bath (11pc) topped Lloen.
Spokesman Dale Lovell from internet company 50 Connect Portal said: "The votes just weren't there for what are generally perceived as popular destinations like London and Stratford-upon-Avon."
The research is the latest in a series of surveys showing the Welsh tourist industry has reason to be optimistic in 2004.
Abersoch Tourism Association's Jane Richardson said: "We're just really pleased with the survey. You often hear of places such as the Lake District or Cornwall but we've also got the benefit of beautiful views around us, a fantastic shoreline and great range of places to eat.
"The over-50s have got a range of things to do from walking on the mountains or watersports on the coast."
Ian Bartle from the Riverside Hotel, Abersoch said: "This is our third year and we've seen an increase in lettings year on year. Some people who have been in the business here for 15 years or so say that last year was their best.
"We're seeing more affluent youngsters in their 20s to mid 50s as well as getting a lot of families and some people who are over 50."
Last week, research from Channel Four placed north Wales ahead of the Algarve, the Lake District and Florida in a list of popular holiday destinations.
And figures released by the Wales Tourist Board (WTB) show visitors spent #1.453bn in the first nine months of 2003, a year-on-year increase of 17pc.
A WTB spokeswoman said: "This is fantastic news for the Lloen Penisula and for Wales in general, and is a sure sign of the high quality tourism experience that visitors can expect when they come on holiday to Wales.
"By any standards, these are extremely encouraging indicators that our collective efforts to boost the tourism industry in Wales are having an impact and that we are successfully winning a greater market share for Wales."

The Metropolis Project is an International Forum for Research and Policy on Migration, Diversity and Changing Cities
Established in 1996 as part of the national Metropolis Project and funded by the federal government, provincial government and the associated universities, MBC is located at Simon Fraser University and the University of British Columbia, with a Co-director based on each campus. MBC's main objective is to place in the public realm relevant material that will aid rational discussion on Canada's emerging immigration policy issues. MBC's task is to provide databases, analyses, and findings from a multidisciplinary academic team that address a wide range of issues in the fields of immigration and integration affecting Canada and the Vancouver region. Through the Metropolis Project, findings are extended to the national and international areas with high levels of immigration. Community stakeholders also influence MBC's research and facilitate the dissemination of its findings.
