I seem to have been gardening for too long to remember, but at a professional level for not long enough. I wish that career change had come sooner. Redundancy payment covered my RHS (Royal Horticultural Society) level 2 qualification in 2004, which gave me an appetite for my first garden design qualification a few years later.
A number of years gaining experience followed, before continuing with part time study at Reaseheath College in Cheshire where I successfully took the BTEC advanced certificate and professional diploma in Garden Design ( passing with distinction - but that's showing off) and shortly after the RHS level 3 Certificate in Practical Horticulture and RHS level 3 Certificate in the Principals of Garden Planning, Construction and Planting ( without distinction - and that's being just plain honest).
I live in Hoole, Chester and currently work on a number of large gardens and stunning private estates in Cheshire and Ross-shire. I am also designing urban and rural gardens as well as continuing to produce planting schemes for private and corporate clients, including Holiday Inn Express, Brunning & Price and Aspect Construction.
Although specialising in planting and designing ornamental and fruit gardens, I have skills and experience in many aspects of horticulture. Do contact me to find out more.

Memphis Teacher Residency (MTR)
The Poplar Foundation/The Pyramid Peak Foundation
Memphis Teacher Residency (MTR)
The mission of MTR is not simply to prepare high-potential teachers for Memphis schools. MTR's mission is Christian love expressed in equal education. The change desired is that our city's most marginalized communities would have access to the same quality of education within their neighborhood-zoned schools as does any other child in Memphis. Now in its 8th year, MTR currently has 268 residents and graduates teaching and leading mostly within our 36 partner feeder-pattern schools that serve six MTR partner neighborhoods: Binghampton, Orange Mound, Frayser, Mitchell Heights, Graham Heights, and Alcy Ball.
Tech901 seeks to foster and support the burgeoning tech sector in Memphis by creating professional development opportunities and highlighting other organizations working toward this common purpose within our community. Through meaningful programming and relationship-building, tech901 believes awareness can bring more voices into this conversation.
The Poplar Foundation/The Pyramid Peak Foundation
The Poplar Foundation is a private foundation that provides resources for education entities with a focus on low-income students. The Pyramid Peak Foundation provides financial support to Memphis organizations with a variety of educational and community focuses.
This session is part two of a series featuring renovation and expansion projects in the Crosstown Concourse completed by AIA Memphis firms.

Hey Y'all,
Welcome back to The Barnyard Bistro! I have been away a while trying to perfect my juggling act. It feels like forever since I've posted on here. My last post about food was in preparation for the baby who is now 2. I haven't been just sitting around the house in pajamas though. Occasionally I wore yoga pants. Kidding! I wanted to take some time to enjoy my newborn, so I did. Since then I've been writing and recording and planning and it's all finally coming full circle and is ready to share in 2018. To give you an idea of a few of the other things I've been up to, here are a few of the roles I've been playing the last two years:
New Mom-
Many of you have met Hensley Jack on my socials and yes, she is just as perfect and full of personality as you think she might be. I'm not partial at all though, Ha! She takes every bit of spare time I have and I love every second of it. I really do hope it's true that you can love your second kid as much as the first...I'm questioning my mom right now and mean-mugging my sister who at this point, I feel like MUST be my mom's REAL favorite.
I am a handful sometimes, and thank God for letting me hit the husband jackpot. Along with having his own career, he happily drags bags and baby across the country with me to live out my dreams. It's been well over 18 months since we've spent an entire month at home And....he doesn't mind helping with dishes and laundry. Like I said, JACKPOT.
2018 is going to be a BIG year for me and my music. In December I released a duet called "Anyone Else" with my buddy Lance Carpenter (he cooks too!), if you haven't heard it, check it out! We have a video releasing soon for the duet and then I have an EP coming out later this year as well with a full album to follow that. I have so many fun things in the works that I WISH I could share with you but stay tuned because this year is going to be epic!
Family Member and Friend -
As you can imagine with our travel schedule we miss out on a lot of family and friend gatherings. We are so blessed to have such an incredible and supportive group of friends that love us even though we are more often then not, unavailable when they invite us to events. My girlfriends try to to plan going to concerts and on trips a year in advance and I rarely can commit as next week is almost always up in the air. I love them dearly for putting up with me. I have gotten to spend a lot more quality time this last 2 years with them which has been lovely since our prospects for quality time in 2018 is looking bleak.
Clothing Designer -
You may or may not know but my mom, sister and I started a golf and athleticwear company in 2013 called SwingDish. We have had such a great time creating and traveling and building this brand. We are in several countries and in golf and country clubs across the nation.
OK, this one is random...Petroleum Landmam -
As I mentioned above, Drew does have his own career. He co-owns an oil and gas brokerage and investment firm In Oklahoma. As most husbands that start companies do, Drew has managed to talk me into adding yet another career to the already-long list of roles I feel the need to perfect. I'm officially 10 years in. When he needs an extra hand on a project, he likes using my "off-road" time by popping me behind a desk so he can boss me around for a change. Pre-Hensley it wasn't just off-road-time. I put 8-10 hours a day in for him during the entire Shut Up and Hold On Tour that my band and I opened. He is lucky I'm a nerd and love spreadsheets, math and office work!
That's quite a few hats to wear so I hadn't had near as much time for experimenting with new recipes as I had pre-Hensley Jack. Not getting to cook a hot, fresh, gourmet meal every single night has not left Henny and the hubs without great food, I've just learned to plan ahead and cook a lot of food twice a week instead of every night. I've also gotten better at meal planning so that what I cook fits into other meals I'm making. I can also say I've become somewhat of a Crock Pot master. Don't worry, I'll share many of those recipes here this year too. I'm at a point where I've got my shit together a bit more and Hensley will finally entertain herself long enough for me to snap a few pics and write up a post here and there. Happy 2018! I've missed you guys and cannot wait to share so much this year!
Enjoy! XOXO~

as for us newlyweds, things are going well. we're really starting to like living in MD, and so far the new job is going well. i like my coworkers and LOVE my new schedule. home by 4 everyday? yes, please!
you will all be pleased to know that i am down 4.5 lbs this week. finally, finally, finally am back on track. it looks something like this:
july 10: -35 lbs
aug 31: +17.6, -17.4 total
today: -21.8
mondays will be my official weigh-in day. i'm just soooo glad i'm getting back there. hate that i gained so much back, but ice cream, pizza, pf changs, movie theater popcorn, fried foods - basically, my choices - got me there. i didn't switch back to regular pop, but so that's good, but my eating was far from good.
i'm looking forward to a long holiday weekend! :)

Many of us can be too passive in our faith. We find ourselves just waiting for God, not realizing that He could be waiting on us to believe in Him and exercise our faith. Many miracles in the New Testament happened when someone whom needed a "touch from God" (instead of passively sitting around and hoping God would do "something") stepped-out and acted in faith.
A certain woman, with an issue of blood, put her faith in action. She aggressively pushed through the masses, compelled by one thought: 'If I could just touch King Jesus'. Her motive was not driven by a chance to see a celebrity, but by her faith that Jesus would heal her. She shoved her way near to Him and as she touched the fringe of His garment-she was instantly healed! Jesus immediately asked who touched Him, saying that He felt power go out from Him. This woman's determination to reach Jesus, and her faith in Him, released the power that made her well (Luke 8:43-48).
Jesus said that we only needed to believe in order to see the glory of God (John 11:40). Isn't that what we really want to see? God's glory manifested in our lives and others? Beloved, sometimes it requires the same persistent faith that the woman with the issue of blood displayed. The book of Acts is filled with daring exploits of people that acted on their faith. They were rewarded with seeing the otherwise unbelievable. Can you imagine if they had been satisfied with only staying in the Upper Room?
Beloved, we have the right to say and think about ourselves the same way that God does. He loves us and created us in His image. It is time to see ourselves from God's perspective and proclaim these faith declarations over our life-taking hold of our potential in Him and through Him. He says that we are more than conquers (Romans 8:37); that through Jesus we have overcome the world (1 John 5:4); and that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us (Philippians 4:13).
Jesus said: "… I came that they may have life and have it abundantly." (John 10:10)
Beloved, faith is a gift of God (1 Corinthians 12:9) but we must nourish it through feeding on His Word. The writer of Hebrews said, "Without faith it is impossible to please Him." (Hebrews 11:6). We need to examine ourselves and break out of spiritual passivity; breaking into the realm of aggressive faith in order to go deeper in God.
Begin today: thinking with a faith mindset, speaking with words of faith, and then acting upon your faith.
I believe in this ministry!
I have told everyone who will listen that God spoke to me through you.
For the very first time, I understand the real meaning of water Baptism.
You always seemed to know what I needed when I needed it
I have been blessed by supporting your ministry, "pressed down and overflowing".
I feel loved and encouraged by this ministry.
My 7 year old son Jacob watches your show with me every week.
I just became a monthly Partner to your ministry!
Every time I listen to Rabbi's teachings, my heart softens and tears run down my cheeks.
Rabbi cares so much about people all over the world, the love is overwhelming.

Dan Fleshler is a veteran of the mainstream Jewish community and the pro-Israel, pro-peace world as well. He has written a book that everyone concerned about US Middle East policy and how to change it should read. It's called Transforming America's Israel Lobby: The Limits of Its Power and the Potential For Change.
I review it here for Zeek Magazine.
This is one of the most important books out there. Not only because it is a much fuller and more sober exposition of the "Israel Lobby" than anything else out there, but also because it is not merely academic–it also suggests how a peace lobby might be built.
I hope you'll read mu review, but even more, I hope you'll buy this book. I rarely act as a salesman for anyone, but this time, it's really worth it.

As the title denotes, these Spirals are made from the Danish dough. It is to be noted that it is important to make a full recipe of danish dough or the sufficient layering will not be achieved, although you only need half of the dough. An 'oven proof' jam containing a gelling agent that will not not melt out during baking is preferable. Look out for the 'gelling agent' under the 'ingredients' label from the jam bottle
One half of the recipe of The Danish Dough
3 1/2 ozs/1/2 cup/100 g granulated sugar
1 tsp/1.3 g ground cinnamon
3 1/2 ozs/1/2 cup/100 g chopped walnuts
1 large egg lightly beaten to be used as glue
12 ozs/3/4 cup/340 g seedless raspberry jam
Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle 1/2 inch (6 mm) thick. Using a pizza cutter, trim the edges of the dough so they are straight.
In a separate bowl, mix the sugar, cinnamon, and walnuts together.
Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the dough with the beaten egg and evenly sprinkle the sugar, cinnamon and nut mixture over half of the dough, Using hands, spread the mixture evenly.
Fold the unfilled half of the dough over the sugar, cinnamon, and nut mixture and, using a rolling pin, lightly roll over the dough so both sides adhere.
Using a pizza cutter. cut the dough crosswise into 1/2 inch(1.25 cm) thick strips.
Working with each strip separately, gently pull a strip lengthwise to stretch it slightly and twist it over and over until it is tightly wound. Coil the twisted dough around itself to form a spiral and place the coil on a parchment-lined sheet pan.
Repeat with the remaining strips.
Allow the spirals to proof in a proof box at no higher than 85f(30c) for approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour or until they appear puffy. (i do not have a proof box, so i cover loosely, the sheet pan with plastic wrap and then cover with a damp cloth).
Make an indentation in the center of each coil and fill with some jam.
Preheat the oven to 400f(205c).
Bake the spirals for 10 - 12 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
While the spirals are still hot, drizzle each with the sugar icing. Sorry - no sugar icing for Lily and family.
"The Croissants i made with Croissant Dough. The base is 2 1/2 inch and the height is 10 inches.

Heritage Press – The Trial and Death of Socrates by Plato (1963)
September 4, 2011 Comments Off on Heritage Press – The Trial and Death of Socrates by Plato (1963)
The Trial and Death of Socrates by Plato (1963)
Sandglass Number unknown
Artwork – Illustrations by Hans Erni
Translated and Analysis by Benjamin Jowett, and introduced by Huntington Cairns
Reprint of LEC #338/30th Series V. 11 in 1962
Click the images for larger views.
Front Binding – A brilliant blue cloth covers the boards, but the spine holds the treat of this particular book. Plato's second work printed by the George Macy Company, The Trial and Death of Socrates, is arguably his most well-known piece outside of The Republic, and I think the Heritage edition does it justice. Alas, I can't go into the design aspects on this one – library copy and all that. Any help would be lovely!
Title Page – Much like the later Three Dialogues, Benjamin Jowett supplies the translation for Plato's Greek text. Huntington Cairns provides a Preface. Hans Erni is the artist in question, this being his second commission for the Limited Editions Club (Ovid's Metamorphoses would be the first in 1958), with one more to follow (Epictetus' Discourses and Manual in 1966). His style works well with the text Plato provides, methinks.
Page 13 – Most of Erni's illustrations are in between the text – this is a rarer full page piece.
Page 27
Page 63
Personal Notes – I've yet to snag myself a Plato of any sort, but I wouldn't mind this one being the first. I like the blue boards a lot, and Erni's work is distinctive. For now, I'll remember my time with the library copy these came from.
Any and all info on this book's design process would be very useful! If you have a Sandglass or LEC Newsletter, please drop me a line here or through the comments at my thread about this blog at the George Macy Devotees @ LibraryThing! Thanks!

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009): United Kingdom – directed by David Yates
Rated PG by the MPAA – contains some violence and some scary moments
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince had a difficult task set for it, as J.K. Rowling's sixth entry into the world of Hogwarts is the most accomplished of the first six novels. The plot moves rapidly and is coherent and engaging in a way rarely before present in the series. Fortunately, director David Yates was asked to return after helming one of the better films in the series, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix [review here].
The story continues its darker turn, this time focusing on Professor Dumbledore's (Michael Gambon) extracurricular lessons with Harry as they attempt to find ways to combat Lord Voldemort and his minions. At the same time, Harry's personal life becomes more confusing as he progresses into his teenage years along with friends Ron (Rupert Grint) and Hermione (Emma Watson), who are just becoming aware that they may be more than "just friends."
Old enemies become more dangerous as Harry's counterpart, the sneering Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton), joins forces with the Dark Lord in unforeseen ways. Professor Snape (Alan Rickman), whose fealty is always difficult to predict, continues to tread the line between the good guys and the bad guys until the end makes everything transparent. New characters are added, primarily the odd Professor Slughorn (Jim Broadbent). His specialty is becoming friends with high-performing young wizards, hoping that they will not forget him once they are successful adults.
Other, smaller characters have a chance to enjoy extended screentime, particularly the incredibly pale (but surprisingly attractive) Bellatrix Lestrange (Helena Bonham Carter). Her role as a chaotic evil witch is nicely over-the-top, with Carter relishing the chance to wreak havoc. Ginny Weasley (Bonnie Wright) also gets more attention as Harry's budding love interest.
The problems with Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince can be mostly blamed on the screenplay. When the source material is heavy with plot it becomes difficult to pare it down to the essentials. The first half of the film does this admirably, with extraneous scenes judiciously excised and shortcuts effectively taken to provide the audience with the basic plot points without taking too much time. The film moves along nicely, blending intimate scenes concerning Harry and his friends and their love lives with a sense that a grand, epic finale is not too distant. The second half falters. A scene is added involving the Weasley's house, but it does not appear to add anything to the story other than pyrotechnics. Perhaps they are setting up elements for the final film. The finale is also rather lackluster. The epic showdown is shortened and less impressive than it ought to have been, though it is by no means bad. More of the source material could have been used to bolster the ending.
But there are plenty of reasons to enjoy Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, many of them revolving around the film's production. Yates' visual flair is helpful in creating an atmosphere of foreboding. I wish I could have seen it on the big screen (perhaps I will have the chance when the last two entries are released and marathon sessions are screened at theaters) as there is so much detail packed into each scene that it feels like a visual feast. Yates favors long shots designed for a very large viewing service, and takes the time to make every scene look like an ornate replica of Hogwarts' interior. Magical objects and creatures buzz about, but many of them remain at such a distance it is hard to discern them on a home theater setup.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is enjoyable and entertaining. It briefly touches the surface of the interesting plot points without delving too deeply into any of them. The visual aesthetic combines with some stylish directing and accomplished acting to tell the story effectively, though hardly concisely at two and a half hours. Devotees of the novels might have trouble swallowing some of the adaptation's alterations, but as a pared down, filmed version of the book it does an enjoyable and serviceable job.

Yosemite General Information
Breaking News You can still drive your car in Yosemite National Park
Yes, you can still drive your car or rental car in Yosemite National Park. With all news of the new Hybrid buses, you might be concerned that you might have to park your car at the Gate and use the buses as you only method of transportation. NOT TRUE!! There are many places that you can drive to within the park as well as small private communities like Wawona, Foresta and Yosemite West, where you can rent vacation lodges, which are just not accessible by bus. In fact, many trail heads are easier to get to by car then by buses, so having a car in the park is an asset.
The transit system does have merit too and the new Hybrid buses are welcome addition. Similar diesel-electric buses are already running in 22 cities around the country, but this will be the first fleet to operate in a national park. They produce up to 90% fewer emissions and they're quieter than conventional buses. The fleet of hybrid buses will be maintained and operated by DNC Parks & Resorts at Yosemite, Inc. The buses will shuttle you in Yosemite Valley and in the Mariposa Grove of Sequoias. The National Park Service's concern for increasing noise and emissions levels in the Yosemite Valley were the main factors behind the decision to replace its existing fleet of conventional diesel buses with hybrid-powered buses.
The hybrid buses will operate year-round, carry up to 1,050 passengers per hour, and provide continuous service to visitors for 15 hours a day. Yosemite Valley ridership averages 17,800 passengers per day on busy days and can reach up to 23,000 passengers.

As natural food practices move from fad to mainstream culture, consumers are continuously pressuring major CPG companies to remove artificial food additives, in the hopes of cutting down their ingredient list to a sizable, recognizable inventory. Companies such as Hershey and Kraft have promised loyal consumers a simpler list of ingredients, helping to promote a cleaner lifestyle.
For Kraft, the murmurs surrounding artificial color came to a head in 2014, where the brand saw sales plummet in both third and fourth quarters of the year. As the juxtaposition between the brand's products and consumer interests were growing, Kraft had to act quickly.
To adjust to consumer expectation, Kraft made an announcement on April 20th that their business would be changing the ingredient list in their nationally-beloved macaroni and cheese.
When performing a consumer trend analysis through Crimson's platform, we can see that on that day, overall consumer reactions varied. However, negative sentiment dominated the brand's conversation, ranking in at 45%.
okay KRAFT just because some people are on health kicks & annoying about it doesn't mean you can TAKE AWAY THE ORANGE POWDER MAC AND CHEESE
— carley (@carley_savannah) April 23, 2015
@kraftmacncheese THANK YOU for your plans to take out artificial preservatives & synthetic colors in your LOVED Mac and cheese BRAVO KRAFT ?

Kraft Mac & Cheese changing its formula Jan 2016- will it taste the same? #stockup
— Jim Davis (@jimatlkg) April 20, 2015
So, in an effort to 'Keep Calm, and Kraft On' the brand did something that they referred to as "the world's largest blind taste test", reporting that stores would start replacing the old recipe beginning January 2016. However, secretly, Kraft began stocking shelves in stores a month in advance, in December of 2015.
Did this taste test fare well with consumers? Did customers notice the change?
Using social media analytics, to examine the topics of conversation from December 2015 to March 2016, there appears to be no mention of the change in flavor throughout top conversations. Instead, talks of "making", "eating" and "dinner" dominated the conversation over those 3 months. Therefore, we can assume, that although the recipe changed, consumers were still enjoying, eating, and making Kraft, same as before the recipe had shifted.
Kraft Secretly Changes an Old Favorite for the Better: Your mac and cheese changed.

Finally, on March 7th, Kraft revealed that the brand had been using the new recipe for months. Even after this announcement, consumers didn't seem to be phased, with late February and early March conversations still surrounding the preparation and consumption of the mac and cheese.
In fact, discussion of the recipe change didn't spike until March 8th, with talks of the new recipe only making up a small 2% of the conversation.
From this analysis, we can see that brands like Kraft can utilize social listening to adjust their products to mirror consumer desires. Through social insights, marketing professional and sales team can follow consumer trends to see if there is a shift in sentiment as new product changes are released. Kraft's ingredient switch, unbeknownst to consumers was undoubtedly a success for Kraft, as positive sentiment on the brand's twitter account actually increased 28% from January 2015 to March 2016.
Mission accomplished Kraft.
For further insights on how social supports strategic decisions, we invite you to read through our CPG guide.

text: Arts, Music, and Recreation › Visual Arts "Good Artists Borrow, Great Artists Steal" Share Flipboard Email Print Visual Arts Art Art History Arts & Crafts Architecture Comic Books Anime & Manga by Shelley Esaak Updated October 29, 2014 Thus go words that Pablo Picasso may have uttered, although (1) I cannot find definitive attribution anywhere and (2) a great many other writers, poets, songwriters and visual artists have supposedly said almost the exact same thing. (You can read the last word [pun intended] on that which T.S. Eliot said here, and kudos to Nancy Prager for her detective work.) Anyway.Within the past week I've read about both the source of Shepard Fairey's Obama-HOPE head shot (hint: the artist didn't shoot it himself, nor did he pay to use it) and a lawsuit filed against Richard Prince for lifting a photographer's series of portraits, putting daubs of paint on them and selling the results as his own original work. Now, I am not a copyrights lawyer, merely a visual artist who's always liked to stay on the happy side of the law. However, my layperson's eye, in looking at the original sources for HOPE and the Canal Zone series, sees little that would deem either of them "transformative" works. And the word "transformative," Dears, is the crux of the matter in any "fair use" question--be it written, painted or notated on a G pentatonic scale. Assuming that Picasso did say this--and seriously, I would love to learn of a verifiable source--I think the words "Good artists borrow, great artists steal" constitute one of the most misunderstood and misused creative phrases of all time. To me, it means the difference between aping and assimilating; between copying and internalizing; between being unoriginal and innovative. Between, sad to say, right-clicking an online image and picking up a low-tech pencil. Even Andy Warhol, that master of the appropriated image, had a solid foundation in studio skills and could actually draw well when/if he chose to.I'm tired of seeing the paraphrasical use of "Good artists borrow, great artists steal" as an excuse to be lazy, and, yes, I'm angered when non-transformative "works" are, in turn, copyrighted, feted, receive royalties and/or are sold for staggering sums--though the original artist does not often benefit by so much as a credit line. How does this mindset advance an art form? What message does it send to younger generations of artists? Why, if a big enough "name" engages in this ... borrowing ... is it not only tacitly condoned, but often applauded?Every artist of every stripe builds on that which was done by his or her predecessors. It's only the great artists who manage to take things to new heights, in new directions. That's what I think; end of rant. Continue Reading

If you watch Dr.Oz, you may have heard some of the recent hype about tart cherry juice and its amazing anti-inflammatory properties. Tart cherries contain a large amount of a powerful antioxidant called anthocyanin. This antioxidant is thought to inhibit the same enzyme as aspirin (cyclooxygenase), which would explain why it would decrease inflammation and pain. In a small study done at Oregon Health & Science University, women drinking tart cherry juice for 3 weeks had a significant reduction in inflammatory markers and arthritis pain.
I am always looking for new things to help my patients, but also wary of new "miracle cures" that are being hyped up by the media, so I decided to do a little experiment myself. Since I do not have arthritis, I decided to use my parents as guinea pigs. They both have chronic pain due to severe osteoarthritis of the spine and knees. After tasting the tart cherry juice, I decided to use tart cherry capsules instead. The juice is very, well, tart, and I think it would be difficult to drink two whole glasses of it each day. There is also a lot of sugar and calories in that much juice. I bought the Solaray brand Tart Cherry Juice capsules on Amazon.com. I had my parents track their pain levels for a week before starting the capsules in order to get a baseline. Then I had them take 2 capsules twice per day with breakfast and dinner for the next week and again record their pain levels.
Both of my parents reported a modest reduction in their arthritis pain. My mother's average pain level went from 5.71 to 5, and my father's went from 7.71 to 4.57. I could tell when I saw my mother for her weekly chiropractic treatment that she was much less inflamed than usual. They also both reported increased pain when they stopped taking the capsules, and thus they have gone on Amazon.com themselves now and bought another two bottles. I am encouraging them to try 3 capsules twice per day to see if it further reduces their symptoms.
Neither of my parents reported any adverse side effects. Both of them have a history of GERD and stomach ulcers, but the capsules did not seem to bother them.
Of course this was only a tiny study with no placebo controls, but I think the results are promising. Is tart cherry juice a miracle cure for arthritis? No, but it may help "take the edge off" and be an important part of managing osteoarthritis, along with a healthy diet, regular low-impact exercise, chiropractic & massage, etc. Because it is an antioxidant, it also has many other health benefits such as maintaining cardiovascular health and preventing free radical damage to cells. If you have chronic osteoarthritis pain, it may be worth trying. One word of caution: Check with your PCP first if you are taking blood thinners. Since tart cherry juice acts similar to aspirin, it may have some blood thinning properties.

There is so much to consider beyond the cost of a single
bearing. In this month's newsletter, we give you details of what
affects your true costs and how you can prolong the life of your
Many believe a low Unit Price
outweighs the benefit of considering the actual Cost of
Ownership. It is certainly easier to just buy low but when you
carefully consider all of the factors impacting the cost of a product,
a low unit price can turn out to be expensive.
Let's consider what factors are
& carrying costs - The cost incurred to carry product on
your shelf. Space, risk of loss, expiration of lubrication and cycle
counting are all costs to be carefully considered. Let National
eliminate all of these requirements by stocking the bearings for you.
Lead-times - Cost of waiting for
the product to be delivered when your current manufacturing lead
times vary from 20 weeks to 42 week. This is an ever changing target and
a consistent issue affecting actual cost. National has the ability to
eliminate lead-time by working closely with your production demands
and stocking the product in support of your actual needs.
Flexibility - The ability to pull-in
or push-out product as necessary to meet demand. In most cases
manufacturers cannot accommodate a schedule change. National offers the
ability to adjust your scheduled product as necessary to match your
Minimum order quantity -
Manufacturers require minimum order quantities. Some require 50 or 100
piece purchases. What is the cost of unnecessary extra product? In
many cases, National will forego minimum manufacturing requirements if
consistent future demand exists for the product.
Quality - Cost of poor quality. Make
the wrong vendor choice and the costs will be significant. National's
vast experience eliminates the selection of questionable vendors with
historically poor quality performance.
Delivery performance - Cost of late
delivery. This can be huge! National works closely with your production
schedule to ensure products are delivered when required. Our goal is
100% on time delivery!
Vendor Management - Cost of managing
multiple vendors. This is a time consuming process for most customers.
National eliminates the need to contact and manage numerous
suppliers. At National this is our role. We manage all vendors and
become your single point of contact for bearings.
Next time you are about to make a purchase based on a
low unit price, remember National Precision Bearing will deliver the
product with a far lower cost of ownership, all things considered. If

You wouldn't try
to replace a Corvette's wheel using a pair of vice grips. Why would
you use a mallet and chisel to remove and install a bearing in an
The use of makeshift bearing
installation tools and methods can result in several expensive
unintended consequences. At its worst, the misapplication of force can
result in significant damage to both the bearing and the housing. At
best, parts are subjected to unnecessary stresses that could
potentially shorten their serviceable life requiring more frequent
maintenance cycles and increased potential for unexpected failure.
Fortunately, these risks are easily avoidable with the use of
appropriate staking, swaging, cutting tools and proof load testers.
Designed for easily repeatable bearing installation and removal, these
tools are available in forms suitable for shop environments or more
portable on-site repair applications.
Most commonly used for installation of
bearings with V-grooves, swagers come in a variety of forms.
Tri-Roller tools evenly push the bearing material over the housing by
combining a rotating action and downward pressure to ensure an even
swage. An animation is available on our website to illustrate this
device in action. Click here to view the Swaging animation. Anvil swagers in
combination with an arbor press may be used to swage both sides of a
bearing at once. Other custom and common swagers are also available
for various applications, including segment stakers for housing over
bearing and sleeve bearings.
Equally important as proper
installation, is the correct removal of the bearing. Cutting tools are
designed to remove a specific bearing with minimum damage to the
housing assembly, saving the added expense of reworking the housing.
Just as a lug and torque wrench on a
wheel, having the right tool for installing and removing bearings,
results in better efficiency and quality with every use. With a
selection of in stock or custom built solutions, National Precision
Bearing can help select and tailor a product for you.

Shelter Angel
We know that it is a great feeling to help a specific animal through a stressful time. Being a Shelter Angel does just that.
Your gift will be applied to our special medical fund and put toward the cost of the treatment and care of selected pets that come to us in need of help.
Gifts of $100 or more may be applied to the Shelter Angel Medical Fund.
Here are some of our success stories:
Biggy, the 4 year old cat, was brought to us with a preexisting leg injury. He was here at Suncoast Humane Society and unfortunately re-injured his leg as a free roaming cat in our cattery when he jumped down from the counter. X-rays were taken and it was determined that he needed a leg amputation. This was a costly procedure but it had to be done for Biggy's comfort and well-being. Biggy was still recovering when he was adopted to a loving family on March 10, 2018, who reports that he is adjusting to his new life very happily.
Clay, the 2 year old cat, was brought to us as a stray. Clay had dental disease and had to receive a tooth extraction, dental scaling & polish. Clay is a friendly cat who loves to snuggle. Clay was adopted on March 21, 2018.
Chance is an energetic 5 year old dog who tested heartworm positive when he came to us. He has since been treated here at Suncoast Humane Society and is still looking for his forever home.
Suki is an 8 year old Siamese cat with beautiful, big blue eyes. Unfortunately she suffered from a ruptured ear drum. She needed a costly lateral ear resection procedure done. Suki has recovered and was adopted on March 10, 2018.
When Cammy came to us, she had a mass on her stomach. It was decided that she would undergo x-rays, blood work and urinalysis. Cammy is a mellow cat and was adopted August 3, 2017.

Not only does this make the waxing process easier to understand, but the hairs. Many women opt for shaving to get rid of unwanted of the fact that some stranger would be touching and looking at the most intimate areas of their body. Bikini waxing and Brazilian wax treatments are of wax with the spatula, make sure that you apply it in the same direction as the hair growth and always start with the area under the eye first. Bikini waxing and Brazilian wax treatments are the paraffin in most waxes, so allergic reactions are also less likely.
However just after a day or two, hair starts to grow back in the women in all corners of the world, giving an exponential boost to this sector. The gay community also encourages the Brazilian waxing, but, at the same time, heterosexual males experience because you?ll be able to get rid of unwanted hair from your body parts. Waxing hair removal results are long lasting when is primarily because of how sensitive the skin is on these areas. Sugaring is a method of hair removal that is similar to waxing in many ways, applying a sticky paste of sugar, starch, or similar substances to the body and then referrals, the experience and results should be exemplary.
Men are likely to prefer waxing over shaving because as the regular, but it delays the regrowth of the hair. Today's fashion trends have men waxing their bodies for cosmetic reasons, and grows back much finer than it would with shaving or depilatory creams. Though a little pain or a stinging sensation is expected method in removing unwanted hair, but it doesn?t last long. The other reason why waxing is still a popular hair removal technique is that compared to other temporary method like shaving and creams.
Nowadays it is not just men who desire girls with a smooth and hair available - With warm waxing being the most often used. Effectiveness of this method may vary also depending on the brand bottle of Nair, but the results are smoother skin and long lasting results. Regardless of whether you?re considering Brazilian, back or body pulled off quickly ? Today's fashion trends have men waxing their bodies for cosmetic reasons, and eyebrows, face, bikini area, legs, arms, back, abdomen and feet'.

Being at death brings us closer to everything.
Closer to the world.
Closer to life.
Closer to all living things.
Being at death means being there.
Seeing as it happens.
Knowing what it looks like.
Sharing the moment with another living being.
Being at death makes dying real.
Death moves through us and we know it.
We're touching death in that moment.
Life is slipping away and spirit passes, dissolves.
Witnessing the loss invades our Self.
We feel our own life more real.
Their death becomes part of us.
And our own death becomes more real.
Dying becomes a tangible experience.
We can visit the dying before the end.
We can view the departed at a funeral.
See the before and the after.
Missing the act of death.
Dying is a moment.
The final living journey.
The last living experience.
One of the millions of moments we will all have.
We don't remember our birth.
We won't remember our own death.
We will always remember being at death.
That moment is forever buried deep into our Self.
It is a gift to bear witness, share and comfort their passing.
A gift given to both the now and once living.
The fortunate get a peaceful death.
With a companion to comfort the passing.
Robbed of a goodbye, Stan was lost too young, too sudden.
We were all stunned by the sudden loss of Marc.
Stan and Marc are forever in my heart, my soul, my love.
I was granted the gift to be with my father at the end.
Now again given the gift to comfort Richard in his final moment.
Twice I've been given the gift of being at death.
After sudden loss,
the love and memories of Stan and Marc will forever remain in my soul.
Being at their death,
Father's and Richard's spirits are now forever buried in my Self.
Don't cry because it's over.
Smile because it happened.
Dr. Seuss
He had it all
It was all laid out before him
He had what many called a perfect life
What happened?
He had fought in a war
And had come back alive
To meet his true love
What happened?
Together to college they went
Together married they were
Together a family they had
What happened?
Very well off they were always said to be
With each other and their family
They seemed to be so happy
What happened?
It was too good to last some now think
One bad decision to ruin what they had
Their relationship and family destroyed
What happened?
He up and left to pursue a new life
Leaving behind his six boys and his wife
All to fend for themselves and deal with his decision
What happened?
Some say it started in the war
Others don't know
But all try not to think about his decision
What happened?
This change of life
This change for the worse
Affected all loved ones forever
What happened?
It is now years later
The worst still to come
For he has been diagnosed
It has happened.
He has now given up
He finds no motive to live
His death will be slow
It has happened.
His sons have come back
For the first time in years
To stick by their father no matter
What happened?
They all fight with feelings
They have harbored for years
Now set behind them for
What happened?
The brothers have honored
His last dying wish
To die in his home after
What happened?
Their lives all put on hold
For his last few days
As his life slowly drains because of
What happened?
His family now gathers
For the first time in years
To mourn his sad death because of
What happened?
Everyone now fights
With the situation now passed
As they all were affected by
What happened?
We've all heard this story
With minor things changed
We all know what happened
He died of AIDS.
a poem by Brooke Scarbeary
written in memoriam to her grandfather, Donald Leon Scarbeary
There is a time when the world will blossom
When a moment turns into a memory
When a bird will reach the sky
Each garden painted with color
A bumble bee reaches a flower
When each strand of grass turns from bitter to bright
The sun dancing on a cloud
Let a butterfly tickle your nose
What a joy to see
The shade of a tree
Watching the world become bright
In your eye.
A Poem by Olwyn Scarbeary A 4th grade project written for Stanley BPS and the Salvation Army.

The guy playing guitar at the party has played a couple of gigs in Colorado before — the Bluebird Theater in 2012 and Red Rocks in 2015 — but none this big. He's standing alone on stage at the 18,000-capacity Pepsi Center in Denver, surrounded by blue-jeaned couples, thousands of teenagers and their parents, because this party — unlike the ones in his songs — isn't exclusively about hooking up or getting drunk. It's about, as all guys who've brought a guitar to a party have dreamed of at some point, the guy himself.
He is Ed Sheeran, who grew up in small-town England, where he built a career off of his tidy songwriting, plucking out tunes that were unabashedly cliché and subtly complex on his parlor guitar. Sheeran started performing in front of people waiting for the train, then found less captive audiences, who began to not only give this guy with a guitar their attention unsolicited, but also their money, too. Now, he's an RIAA multi-platinum-certified artist.
On Tuesday, after an opening set from James Blunt, Sheeran strove to claim the audience's undivided attention over his 1 1/2 hour set as part of his 187-show ÷ Tour ("Divide Tour"). He stood defiantly alone in a simple T-shirt and jeans, a mothership of lights overhead outlining the wispy copper hair and beard around his head like a dandelion at sunset.
He ceded the spotlight just once, midway through, to bring out the guy playing piano at the party, for "How Would You Feel (Paen)." It was a sorely needed variation. Sheeran tried to replicate the breadth of his catalog — from club banger "Shape of You" to "Galway Girl," a pop anthem with a nip of Irish folk — with only the aid of a looper, which recorded and replayed snippets of his vocals and guitar around him, but it was never quite enough.
He had a bit of a cold, he said, but the one-man show must go on. Sipping from a titanium mug, Sheeran kept his tenor in range right up until the falsetto'd chorus of "Sing," an encore, where he backed off, coyly kicking it down an octave. Elsewhere, he relied on his enraptured public to pick up the slack, as they did for "Dive," the night's easy highlight. Part of it was the song — it's a modern R&B ballad in the vein of the Backstreet Boys — and part was the spectacle, as Sheeran commanded his thousands of fans to raise their cellphones to light up the arena. It was a display that most of his set sorely lacked.
Like any guy with a guitar at a party, Sheeran's downfall was hubris. He asked the crowd to move their arms up and down for one song, not because they necessarily wanted to, but because, as he joked, "It looks awesome from up here, and you're doing it for me." He did bring guitars — so many guitars — and a giant screen showed his face from several angles and in myriad settings, all of which seemed to be inspired by the art you'd find on folders in Trapper Keepers. At one point, a whale swam past a crystal in outer space.
But like that whale, it wasn't enough to keep his set from floating away. Before long, his weedy acoustic quad poetics spilled from one song to another. He didn't seem to notice, demystifying the art of performance with self-effacing jokes and the odd water bottle he chugged and chucked over his shoulder between songs.
His last parlor trick was a semi-impromptu ditty that looped the word "Colorado" for its chorus. Mesmerized, his fans swayed recursively, like a grip of frat boys after a flip-cup marathon. Others, mostly teenage girls, screamed, a reflex response that signaled the start or end of any song, or any remotely unexpected moment. (After Sheeran intimated two fans would "get lucky" later that night in response to a marriage proposal during "Perfect," a girl nearby shrieked wide-eyed to a friend, as if sex was a sports team she supported.)
Without the aid of the booming bass, fiddle or drums that prop up his dynamic pop pastiche of a catalog, Sheeran was, essentially, in the great tradition of guys with guitars at parties, playing cut-rate covers. Sure, they were covers of his own songs — although he does have the tabs to "Wonderwall" and Blackstreet's "No Diggity" somewhere in his guitar case — but they felt just as hollowed out. A guitar and some keenly written tunes about ne'er-do-wells in love can stop hearts at your high school reunion. But for the boyfriends and moms dragged to a $100-a-seat concert, it felt like buying a ticket to "Dunkirk" and getting Christopher Nolan, solo, acting out the screenplay.
Yes, as with the guy playing guitar at the party, Sheeran is an easy target for the misanthropic. But there's a reason Sheeran's party is on a massive arena tour: Because songs he's written, like "Thinking Out Loud" and "Photograph," are minor "Wonderwalls," in regular rotation for fellow guitar guys world 'round. Like any resonant pop, they're not only fun sing-a-longs, but they bridge our differences from one another with our incorrigible similarities, dumb as they might be.
At the party, we're endlessly in love or desperate to be, prone to poor choices, drinking more than we should be and, if all goes accordingly, waking up "on the right side of the wrong bed." These aren't revelations, and Sheeran isn't a revelatory songwriter.
He is, though, the presiding entertainer at a party that epitomizes happiness for so many, where the same simple paeans are essential rally cries that can bring a house full of strangers together in exuberant chorus. Sheeran couldn't manage that alone on Tuesday. But for Denverites looking for a reason to party — who isn't, these days? — the guy with the guitar had plenty of familiar songs to huddle around.

To help you get the sleep you need, here is a simple guide for minimizing chronic pain at bedtime:
See Chronic Pain and Insomnia: Breaking the Cycle
Why is my pain worse at bedtime?
Before we look at how to minimize nighttime pain, let's quickly look at why your pain levels may seem worse when you lie down to sleep.
See Additional Factors That Affect Sleep Comfort
During the day, you are distracted by any number of things. Work, kids, and so much more keep your mind occupied from the time you wake up until the time you are ready for bed. But when you lie down to sleep, you are deprived of many of these distractions. So then, it is easier to focus on your pain.

Additionally, your pain levels may be worse at night due to factors like poor posture and excessive sitting.

Minimizing bedtime pain
No single treatment works for everyone, but any of the following methods may help minimize your bedtime pain:
- Visualization. In your mind's eye, try picturing a relaxing scene such as gentle waves rolling onto a beach. You can try counting the waves as you slowly drift off to sleep.
- Deep breathing. You can practice deep breathing in any number of ways, but to begin simply inhale until the count of 4, and then exhale for the same amount of time.
- Heat therapy. A disposable heat wrap can deliver pain-relief over the course of several hours to help you fall asleep.
- Dissociation. This technique involves separating your pain from the rest of your body. For example, you can visualize your pain sitting on your dresser, and you can tell it to remain there for the night.
See 11 Chronic Pain Control Techniques
See Benefits of Heat Therapy for Lower Back Pain
See Psychological Techniques, Sleep Environment, and Better Sleep
What to do if the pain won't stop
If the above strategies fail to bring you enough relief from your pain so that you can fall asleep, make sure to schedule an appointment with your doctor. She or he can review your sleep habits, and they may recommend the temporary use of sleep medication.
See Sleep Medications by Prescription
Additionally, your doctor may recommend other pain relief options, such as stretching, massage therapy, and low-impact aerobic exercise.
See Stretching for Back Pain Relief
I hope all of the above advice will help you find relief from your bedtime pain so you can wake up feeling rested and ready for your day.

Noninvasive Spinal Cord Stimulation Enables Paralyzed Men to Move Again
Paralyzed patients could be treated to regain movement ability without surgery? It sounds like science fiction, but a research group from UCLA made it possible in real world. With attached electrodes on the back, four paralyzed men was able to move legs again.
A new noninvasive treatment method has given paralyzed men new hope to move without any invasive treatments such as surgery. This method was claimed to be not causing discomfort to the patients. The research group in University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) demonstrated that noninvasive spinal cord stimulations and drugs can help completely paralyzed men regain the ability of simple movements. Their research has been published in the Journal of Neurotrauma.
In the research, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) was utilized by carefully placing electrodes on the back of patients to deliver electric impulses to stimulate nerves. Furthermore, this stimulation seems to help the body "remember" its former nerve connection for movements.
In the study, four completely paralyzed men from the waist down underwent 45min training per week for a total of 18 weeks. At the beginning, the patients could only have involuntary move of the legs with stimulations strong enough. During the training, the patients were told to attempt to move their legs while receiving stimulations. Also, a drug named buspirone was given to the patients at the final 4 weeks. This drug was reported to induce local motion in mice with damaged spinal cord. After the training and drug treatment, the patients could move their legs voluntarily without any stimulation at all, although buspirone was still needed.
Considering that nearly 1.3 million Americans have paralysis with spinal cord injuries, this noninvasive treatment is promising to relive the surgery pain and complications with much lower cost. Further study by the same group has started, hoping to enable patients to bear their weight fully with the spinal cord stimulation treatment.

Tiger Lou yesterday was awesome. Today I've checked out the music created by his sister.

Dexter's Moon is a group of Swedes making what they call "Lo-fi Country Pop". They released their debut album, Come Rain, in 2005 and from what I've heard (half of it is available for free from their homepage ^^) it's all mellow, nice and beautiful, though perhaps not that much obvious difference between songs musicalwise.
The song below is a piano version of a song from their second demo, You Can Count On Me. It's very lovely.

and had a lot of fun. Attending were Jahna and Dan, Phyllis and her daughter Jessica, Danielle and Mike

Dig you a trench,
And bury your brothers in war.
Decimate climates of peace;
Call every innocent, whore.
Wage every day
What your ravenous soul craves,
And watch fools become martyrs,
Kings crowned from jesters and knaves.
Squander their time,
Should our children survive.
Sell their inheritance and health
Before they're of mind…
To know what you have taken.
Beware, the rustling
Of defiant stares.
The whisper of leaves
Grows louder than bombs in the air.
Do you hear it?
Though distant,
It is the sound of elections
With inflections of hope.

The theory of dominos is that the ratio of the thickness to the height of the tablet is such that it is inherently unstable when acted upon by a nudge. A single domino when nudged will topple and fall into a highly stable orientation from which only physical intervention will restore its vertical importance.
When the domino is isolated in space because there are no other dominos on the field or they are sufficiently distanced from it, there is no opportunity for interaction that places other dominos in jeopardy. A single domino falling over is of little consequence in the greater scheme of the entire field of dominos.
It is when dominos are close together in some regular order that mass toppling events occur. In this first diagram, a sample of dominos have become arranged in a generally linear orientation and are primed for Imminent Collapse. Depending on which domino initiates the toppling event, more or less dominos will succumb to the first one. The square near the center of the field is actually composed of three closely spaced dominos. The sum of their thickness in close proximity actually makes the three act as a single tablet of thickness = 3 and is able to resist a significantly higher toppling force than any of the other single dominos.
This orientation is nicknamed "Wall Street." Hundreds of banks and investment houses in the United States and around the world all organized themselves in regular linear fashion by practicing the same paradigm of money management and unregulated folly.
The dominos in this second field are more highly random in their orientations. The are not set up to create a major toppling event. Several tablets actually protect others by their diversity of position. If when a small toppling event takes place and the magic hand acts to reset the toppled tablets over time there will be no major toppling events and most of the dominos will always be standing.
Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae both aligned themselves in the same orientation (along with hundreds of other institutions). Some partisan pundits fix blame on liassez-faire US Federal government of the Conservative Republicans as the root cause of the debacle. Others blame the liberal politics of the Democrats for trying to engineer a larger middle class out of people who were inherently unqualified to be home owners. If either of those causes were the root cause, then the hundreds of other banks and finance institutions around the world would not be in the exact same position, laying on their sided moaning after being toppled by adjacent dominos.
In this third field of tablets, there are regions of relative strength and weakness. The lattice oriented tablets are strong and resist toppling events as does the region of boxes and herringbone patterns. Several tablets are isolated enough that when a subset of tablets topple they remain upright.
If the field were sufficiently large, then while large portions of the field may suffer a toppling event, the entire field would not be destroyed.
The tendency to create vulnerable grouping like these runs rampant in an unregulated and necessarily unplanned industry. Engineers do not allow just anyone to erect a bridge or a dam where ever they choose. Federal judges do not allow legislators to enact any old law they choose. Each new law must be consistent with all pre-existing laws or either or both must be rewritten to remove the conflict.
The medical profession doesn't allow just anybody practice medicine and call himself a doctor. Well that is a poor example. Each construction project must file a plan for electrical wiring, plumbing and structural integrity. Each phase of construction must be inspected and approved. The system is not perfect, but it does minimize the incidence of failures that injure and kill people.
Financial industry is one of the few that claims that self regulation is the only way to go and that outside scrutiny is both unnecessary and inherently damaging to the operation of the business. The finance institutions equate themselves with being the economy that needs to be left to its own "natural" checks and balances. Even though they have a long run, not one without its detractors, the end is at hand. What many constituencies who were not a beneficiary of the booming wealth production have been saying has now come to be.
The Domino model of the Principle of Imminent Collapse is brilliant in its own simplicity. The Principle of Imminent Collapse needs no regulation or outsider scrutiny. It is perfect in its performance measures. Whereas the financial industry measured its performance purely in percentages of profit, the Principle of Imminent Collapse measures its performance in magnitudes of devastation.

As my friends will tell you I have abit of an obsession with cocktail rings - the bigger the better usually! I have always limited to wearing them one at a time but after some research (i.e browsing through internet sites whilst bored at work) I'm not sure if this has been a mistake. Just look at these and see what you think:
Don't they look just so cool? At the moment I am wearing a vintage ring from my hubby's Nan (my nan-in-law?) maybe it needs some friends?
I would love some, or rather all, of these which I have just seen on the Topshop website:
On a completely different note, I bought some AMAZING shoes from Primark the other day.I was joking with the checkout girl that if I take a torch out with me I could be my very own glitterball!
