Man of the Year – Dr. Matthew Mann
Sponsored by the Pleasanton Lions Club
Dr. Matthew Mann was born in Lafayette, Indiana. Growing up, his father was in the Army and he was able to travel to many different states and countries. He attended Adams State University in Alamosa, Colorado on a Debate scholarship and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in 1994, majoring in History and Government with a minor in Speech and Debate. Dr. Mann married his wife Sara that he had met in college that same year. Dr. Mann and Sara completed their student teaching in the San Luis Valley in the mountains of southern Colorado and Dr. Mann secured his first teaching position in Sierra Grande School District, a rural school with 150 students K-12, as one of two middle school teachers. Later, he moved to Pleasanton, Texas and went into business with his wife's family in the produce industry. For those of you that know Dr. Mann well and have seen how he works with and inspires students, it is no surprise that he chose to return to teaching. In 1998, Dr. Mann went back to teaching at Samuel Clemens High School as a speech and debate teacher and later taught World History at East Central High School. Upon completing his Master's degree from Texas A&M University – Kingsville in 2001, Dr. Mann secured an assistant principal position at Scobee Middle School in Southwest ISD. Wanting to move closer to his home in Pleasanton, he took a position as an assistant principal at Jourdanton Junior High in 2005. Dr. Mann completed his doctoral studies at Texas A&M University – Kingsville in 2011 writing his doctoral dissertation on the relationship between school district size and science performance. He has presented at national and state level educational conferences and has published four articles on various educational topics. Dr. Mann has been married for 23 years to his wife Sara who serves as the Executive Director of Curriculum for Floresville ISD. They have two daughters, Kaytlyn, who is studying in the Mays Business School at Texas A&M, and Emily, who will graduate this year and begin at Texas A&M in the fall pursuing a Law degree.
While Dr. Mann has vast educational experience, his greatest impact is in how he serves the community of Pleasanton. Dr. Mann is an active member of the Church of Christ in Pleasanton and served as a youth soccer coach for 9 years. He is a member of the Pleasanton Rotary Club and seeks opportunities to give back to the community whether that be ringing a bell at Christmas time outside of Wal-Mart for the Salvation Army, attending city council meetings, supporting the Atascosa County Livestock Show, or helping to host Stuff the Bus at HEB. Dr. Mann believes that great public schools are critical to the success of any community and he has dedicated his life's work to guiding students to realizing their own potential. He has recently worked to build a focus on literacy within the school district and across the community by reading to children at HEB and promoting a reading readiness program designed for families to use from birth to Kindergarten through public and private entities that serve the children of this community. He recruits his fellow Rotarians to join him at the Pleasanton ISD After-School Care Program once each week allowing students an opportunity to read to him and other adults to practice their reading skills. In his role as superintendent, Dr. Mann emphasizes the importance of reading to students by reading to every PreK, Kinder, and 1st grade class each year. He purchases approximately 800 books each year so that when he reads to the class, he can present each child with a book that has a message just from him. Sara recently shared a story about a trip to Atascosa Vision Source last month where an employee joked with Dr. Mann about how many times she had read that Teenage Ninja Turtle book he had given her son, and how every time someone came to their house, her son ran to his room to get that book and show it to their guests. Her son's excitement was further heightened when Dr. Mann just happened to sit in for a picture of this young boy and his brother with Santa just before the holiday break at a school event. Now he shows everyone his book from Dr. Mann AND his picture of Dr. Mann.
The community of Pleasanton, and Pleasanton ISD, are no doubt a better place today and will be for many years to come because of Dr. Mann's selfless service and dedication to the children and families of this community.

The prostate gland, an essential part of the male reproductive system grows throughout your life. As you grow older, it becomes imperative to keep this organ healthy.
Here's what you can do to maintain a healthy prostate:
1. Workout to stay fit - Exercising regularly and maintaining an optimum weight can help to keep your prostate gland at an optimal health. Several types of research have revealed the beneficial aspects of exercising. It's said that physically active men are less likely to suffer from enlarged prostate if they performed a physical activity of low to moderate intensity. Likewise, physically active men who ran for 90 to 108 minutes are 20% less likely to develop erectile dysfunction.
2. Eat fruits and vegetables - Including fruits and vegetables in your diet can help to maintain a healthy prostate. Guava, papaya, tomato and watermelon are some of the options that spell good for your prostate. Vegetables like cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli and Brussels sprouts should also be included to boost the health of the gland. Ideally, you should have about 5 servings of fruits and vegetables daily.

Simple question; how long did you wait before lifting weights after you got your j-pouch?
I hear hernia can become a problem if one is not careful. Please do share your thoughts on this as weights are calling me more and more each day.
Simple question; how long did you wait before lifting weights after you got your j-pouch?
I hear hernia can become a problem if one is not careful. Please do share your thoughts on this as weights are calling me more and more each day.
After my pouch was completely done, I was probably lifting weights 2 and a half months later. I was definitely taking it easy and it was about another month before I was pushing myself more. Everyone is different and we all have limits, don't push yourself too quickly and take it easy when you start.
Think it also depends on whether you had open or laparoscopic surgery.
I had open surgery and even prior to my J pouch creation, I decided I'd take a year off from all activity, including weight training but even after my takedown, there was no way I could return to training within 2 months, especially as I had a open wound at my old stoma site.
It was at least 8 months after takedown before I felt well enough to return to training.
Prior to surgery, i had good a core condition which helps reduce the risk of a hernia.
I had a colostomy bag for 9½ years and for at least 5 years before the J pouch surgery , as well as core strength workouts & weight training, I also participated in an intense form of self defence training.
I think the concern in regard to weight lifting after j pouch surgery, is performing Olympic style deadlifts due to the internal bearing down pressure that's required during such a lift, which can even cause embarrassing accidents to those not even afflicted with a bowel condition.
I went back to my powerlifting and core training pretty quickly, but I started very very light. I was lifting light weights between each surgery, usually about 4 weeks after surgery. But I started with about 20% of my previous max, and did very high numbers of repetitions. I gradually added weight and reduced repetitions. I also returned gradually to core stretching and training (it was very painful until the scar tissue was all stretched out). I was back to a 'normal' routine after about 4 months. However I have never put on my belt, as I am afraid it would hurt my pouch. I try to empty my jpouch really well and do not eat for a couple of hours before lifting. I have not had any incontinence, but sometimes I do have bathroom visits between sets.
Lifting is *not* risk-free for J-pouchers , but folks may judge it worth the risk if lifting is important to them. The usual suggestion is to wait six weeks after abdominal surgery to resume "unrestricted" lifting. A lifting belt can't harm the pouch, and might help prevent some (but certainly not all) potential injuries.
The most likely lifting injuries related to J-pouch surgery are probably incisional hernias and pouch prolapse. Girlunky's lower weight/higher rep transitional strategy probably reduces the risk substantially, but some risk persists over the long term. One approach could be to adopt that strategy permanently instead of transitionally. A J-pouch isn't original equipment - it's more like a clever Rube Goldberg invention, with some vulnerable attachment points.
Yes, well I did give up on the idea of competing in powerlifting again. I always leave two reps on the floor - meaning I don't push to my maximums ever.
The signals our body sends us about our lifting limits are mostly about muscle exhaustion, and don't tend to provide good information about surgery-related risks. That being said, the less weight you lift the lower the risk. I know that is irritating information.

Landmark copyright deal empowers creatives and news publishers
The European Parliament says that "creatives" and news publishers will be empowered to negotiate with internet giants under a landmark deal reached last week on copyright rules which also contains safeguards on freedom of expression.
Photo Credit: Fotolia
The widely-awaited deal, reached between Parliament and Council negotiators, aims to ensure that the rights and obligations of copyright law also apply to the internet.
YouTube, Facebook and Google News are some of the internet's household names, which will be most directly affected by the legislation.
Legislators also strove to ensure that the internet remains a space for freedom of expression. Snippets from news articles can thus continue to be shared, as can Gifs and memes.
- Protecting Europe's creative sector against the threat of technology
- Parliament approves controversial EU copyright reform
- Intense lobbying continues ahead of EU copyright vote
- Julia Reda: EU copyright reform: Filters fail frequently
- Axel Voss: New EU copyright rules will protect the press
- Dan Dalton: New copyright rules risk freedom of speech
The deal seeks to enhance the chances of the rights holders - notably musicians, performers and script authors, as well as news publishers - to negotiate better remuneration deals for the use of their works featured on internet platforms.
Parliament says that sharing snippets of news articles "will not engage the rights of the media house which produced the shared article."
The deal, however, also contains provisions to avoid news aggregators abusing this allowance.
The 'snippet' can therefore continue to appear in a Google News newsfeed, for example, or when an article is shared on Facebook, provided it is "very short".
"This deal is an important step towards correcting a situation which has allowed a few companies to earn huge sums of money without properly remunerating the thousands of creatives and journalists whose work they depend on" Axel Voss MEP
Uploading protected works for purposes of quotation, criticism, review, caricature, parody or pastiche has been protected, ensuring that memes and Gifs will continue to be available and shareable on online platforms.
The agreed text also specifies that uploading works to online encyclopaedias in a non-commercial way, such as Wikipedia, or open-source software platforms, such as GitHub, will automatically be excluded.
Start-up platforms will be subject to lighter obligations than more established ones.
Authors and performers will, under the deal agreed this week, be able to claim additional remuneration from the distributor exploiting their rights when the remuneration originally agreed is disproportionately low compared to the benefits derived by the distributor.
Currently, internet companies have little incentive to sign fair licensing agreements with rights holders, because they are not considered liable for the content that their users upload.
The deal must now be approved by Council representatives and the full Parliament.
Reaction was swift, with Parliament's rapporteur, German EPP member Axel Voss, saying, "This deal is an important step towards correcting a situation which has allowed a few companies to earn huge sums of money without properly remunerating the thousands of creatives and journalists whose work they depend on."
However, the deal was branded an 'attack on openness', by the chief executive of Open Knowledge International, Catherine Stihler, a former MEP and vice-chair of the European Parliament's consumer protection committee.
She said the deal was an attack on openness and that the changes will restrict internet freedoms for millions of users.
"The copyright crackdown will lead to a chilling effect on freedom of speech across the EU. Open data and content must be freely used, modified, and shared by anyone, and this move goes against that principle."
"It does not enhance citizens' rights, and could lead to Europe becoming a more closed society – restricting how we share research that could lead to medical breakthroughs or how we share facts to combat the spread of 'fake news'. I urge MEPs to vote down this proposal," Stihler added.
"The copyright crackdown will lead to a chilling effect on freedom of speech across the EU. Open data and content must be freely used, modified, and shared by anyone, and this move goes against that principle" Catherine Stihler, Former MEP and CEO of Open Knowledge International
Further comment came from Anders Lassen, president of the European Grouping of Societies of Authors and Composers, who welcomed the decision, saying, "This directive was long awaited in our sector. We still need to have a careful assessment of the final text, but its adoption sends a clear signal that large platforms dominating the online content market at the expense of creators must stop freeriding and comply with copyright rules."
"We trust that Member States and the European Parliament will now endorse the Directive and give their final approval to this historical breakthrough, without any further delay."
Véronique Desbrosses, its director general, added, "We are thankful to the European decision-makers for reaching an agreement on this complex and sensitive piece of legislation today. Despite the pressure of tech giants until the very end, the text, which still needs to be assessed in detail, is a major achievement."

- History & beauty in Smardale Gill
- An airy moorland stroll
- Pretty woodland and grasslands
Only a few miles from Kirkby Stephen lies Scandal Beck and the magnificent Smardale Viaduct which lies on the old NER mainline. Walking is easy along the disused track bed whilst the lower alternative is glorious,surrounded as you are by vibrant rare flora birds and butterflies amidst the lovely trees and grasslands (access to the valley floor is for permit holders only).
Smardale Gill National Nature Reserve and Scandal Beck are well managed by the Cumbria Wildlife Trust and is rich in wild flowers; I am led to believe that bird's eye primrose, bloody cranes bill and melancholy thistle are just some of the rare flowers I may have seen. The viaduct is also superb and the lonely moors 100s of feet above the gill top off an excellent and varied walk.
Recommend: If you are on the Coast to Coast this is a detour that is certainly worth making, a hidden gem I certainly passed without a 2nd glance

The year is 2025. Immense numbers of people swarm the globe. In countless, astonishing ways, technology has triumphed—but at a staggering cost. Starvation is rampant. City dwellers gasp for breath under blackened skies. And tottering on the brink of environmental collapse, the world may be ending...
It is a future that could well be ours. In their second shocking and fascinating portrait of America's possible destiny, Whitley Strieber and James Kunetka have again written a breathless thriller, a book that gives us an important warning and ultimately a message of hope.Warner - 1st Edition - April 1986
Imagine cities with blackened air, where men, women, and children gasp for breath. Imagine a countryside with almost no trees... a land where severe droughts, dust storms, and forest fires rage. Imagine an America of astonishing achievements — but so overpopulated and ravaged by its own excesses that it totters on the brink of the destiny predicted long ago in Rachel Carson's Silent Spring.
This is the world that confronts us in Nature's End — a world only a few years from now. With all the vivid detail, compassion, and compelling suspense of their New York Times bestseller, the highly acclaimed Warday, Whitley Strieber and James Kunetka now bring us another riveting novel based on scientific fact. Where their earlier book depicted the grim reality of nuclear war, Nature's End portrays, the same powerful documentary style, a devastation even more likely to occur: total environmental collapse. It is a crisis that will endanger the entire globe — and demand all the creativity, strength, and courage of humankind.
As Nature's End opens, the horrifying proposals of Dr. Gupta Singh are gathering momentum. A frightening demagogue with a saintly Gandhi-like demeanor Singh has dared to voice the unthinkable: the voluntary suicide of one third of the world's people.
Threatened by poisoned air, water, and food that no longer can support the too rapidly growing populace, nation after nation has joined the Depopulationist International. And now, as the United States stands on the edge of environmental disaster, terrified voters elect a Depopulationist majority in Congress.
Time is running out; only a handful of Americans can stop Singh and expose the danger of his views before his Manifesto becomes the law of the land and millions die. Led by journalist John Sinclair, they find themselves on the run, speeding toward catastrophe, with their lives — and the lives of all humanity — hanging perilously in the balance.
As Singh fights back, in one master stroke of psychological warfare after another, their hope lies in the coded data files of Sinclair's dead son, Tom, and a mysterious clue: the secret of mankind's future has something to do with children and a place called Magic.
Here are the horrors — and the wonders — of a technology that is both destroying and advancing humanity. Here is a mystery, a quest, a thriller — an absorbing novel about a future that may someday be ours.
"Chillingly Credible... Entertaining and Intelligent... Atmosphere and Action Keep the Pages Turning." —Washington Post Book World
"A whale of a tale... even scarier and even better reading than Warday." —Detroit News
"A chilling apocalyptic vision." —United Press International
"Mixing scientific detail with the gripping, roller-coaster pace of a spy novel, Strieber and Kunetka create an exciting book that belongs more to speculative fiction than science fiction... a pensive, passionate book." —San Diego Tribune
A New Masterpiece of a Frightening Future
"Beats Stephen King for horror... the settings are so real. Entertaining." —Detroit News

From the 4th – 10th of March, student-led charity "Sexpression:UK" has been hosting a sexual health awareness and sex positivity week in the student union. This week includes talks on sexual health and how to access important resources as well as a screening of "Sex Education" and a "Sex Positive Arts Market".
The events thus far have been well received and relatively popular, but on the 7th, a talk from two former adult film performers saw queues to get into the 340 seat Rupert Beckett lecture theatre trail out of the side of the building. By the time the talk began, every seat was full and a couple of people were lucky enough to get spots perched on the steps or at the back before people were turned away.
The talk began with an icebreaker asking everyone to be honest about their porn habits. Making the bold assumption that everyone was being honest, most people like watching porn, but no one wants to pay for it. The speakers went on to highlight interesting facts about how we as a society consume our adult media, like how Pornhub saw 92 million visits to its website a day in 2018 and that women are proportionally 151% more likely to search for lesbian porn than men. But where the event really started to take off was when the speakers started getting more into what the reality of the porn industry was for them.
It seems we have a lot of perceptions about the porn industry that don't necessarily line up with reality. Women working in the adult film industry are seen as downtrodden when they are not being dehumanised and there is a misconception that all adult entertainers are "damaged goods" whose desperate situation is being taken advantage of. Sexpression's speakers addressed these misconceptions. First, emphasising the very real issue of exploitation in the sex industry, but also providing testament to the fact that the majority of adult performers are empowered and sexually healthy individuals.
The speakers went on to address that they rarely felt judged or pressured from anyone inside the porn industry, but it was actually the rest of the world that has a problem with the way it treats adult entertainers. One speaker described trying to move into video game developing after leaving the adult film industry. She recounted working for a company whose games let players violently kill sex workers for fun. Yet when it was discovered that they had an ex sex worker working for them, they fired her for "gross misconduct" in a hypocritical and discriminatory manner that is unfortunately entirely legal.
From the hypocrisy of those willing to consume sexually graphic and/or violent content but not to treat those who make that content as people; to the slew of creepy messages and threats from "fans" the speakers have had to put up with in the years after leaving the industry.
In an hour and a half the speakers made it abundantly clear that we do not treat those in adult industries with the respect or decency they deserve. Adult film stars have little-to-nothing in the way of protecting their ability not to be discriminated against in the workplace and our sexual hangups have prevented us from taking these men and women seriously.
It is so refreshing then, to see adult film stars such as the event's speakers out and active in the community trying to breakdown these stigmas and make a difference through education. If we're going to consume porn, we should start taking better care of those who create it, and that includes how we pay them.
It may not have occurred to the speakers how ballsy it was to end on asking a room of over 300 students to pay for their porn. Nevertheless the room erupted into applause as soon as the event concluded and the speakers left with one final message for the audience. "Don't bite the hand that jerks you off!"

Servicing and Maintenance
DeLaval's development engineers don't only focus on milking – the whole dairy cycle is just as important. The OptiDuo™ is a new robotic feed pusher with a twin-spiralled rotating auger which allows feed to be remixed and repositioned without damaging or crushing the roughage before being delivered close to the feed barrier, giving the cows greater access to the refreshed feed.
The OptiDuo can be programmed to work around the clock meaning that cows have access to feed 24 hours a day. This allows heifers and lower ranked cows the same opportunity to feed, with less stress and competition, as dominant cows in the herd; which in turn leads to higher intakes, resulting in more milk in the tank. Different settings can be made for different groups, for example lactating cow feed or young-stock feed.
DeLaval calculates that with the OptiDuo feed intake can be increased by up to 10 per cent with less wastage, providing the cows with a well-mixed diet to help to ensure maximum dry matter intake and minimise feed sorting. The cows can then spend more time resting and ruminating.
OptiDuo has been designed with simple maintenance in mind. There are few parts that need to be changed, and no requirement for greasing.
Come and view the OptiDuo in action. Speak to T H WHITE's Dairy specialists today.

Dianabol is one of the most common steroids used in the market and was developed during the 50s. The man behind this creation was Dr. John Ziegler who took care of the US Olympic team at that time. The drug was created and used to respond to the Soviet athletes who used injectable testosterone for improving their competitiveness. The result led to the creation of one of the most powerful anabolic steroids of all times, and its presence is still carried on today. Most anabolic bodybuilders prefer to use Dianabol doses for gaining dramatic muscle mass and strength. As it was one of the first drugs to come into the market, it had got a lot of recognition.
Dianabol for Beginners
Dianabol or Dbol is the selling name of the steroid Methandrostenolone. The drug is anabolic in nature and mildly androgenic too. The drug is perfect for stimulating gains for improving your size and strength. This happens due to the way the drug works and the effects it has on androgen receptors. The drug can improve protein synthesis and glycogenolysis better than what other comparative steroids can do. Consuming Dianabol between 20 – 50 mg every day before working out can give you positive results.
There are injectable forms of Dianabol, but people tend to use the oral version more. Dianabol is a 17 Alpha-Alkylated anabolic steroid for the oral dosages, and this means that it is chemically altered to let the drug pass through the liver and reach our bloodstream without losing the natural essence. If the molecular alteration is not done, the drug gets denatured by our liver and little of it goes into the bloodstream and it is almost useless.
The 17aa alteration of the steroid makes it hepatotoxic. This means that the drug is toxic to the liver and can lead to liver damage if not used responsibly. Alternatively, if you use the drug as directed, you can prevent serious liver conditions and avoid elevated liver enzymes. You will also retrieve back to your normal health condition after discontinuing its use. You can add milk thistle extract for protecting your liver from Dianabol.
Dianabol dosages
Dianabol is the most commonly used drug for strength and size. It is a regular drug used for bulking up your body but not cutting it. The drug has a short half-life for around 5 to 6 hours, and that makes the drug one of the quickest acting steroids available. The drug works quickly and the users tend to use Dianabol dosages for a few weeks for starting off with their cycles. Most Dianabol users tend to kick start their cycles, but some users might break the dosages so that they can balance out the dosages for a longer time. You can consume Dianabol between 20 – 50 mg every day before working out and this is the average dosage level to follow. Be aware of the side effects so that you are safe and take preventive measures.

24 May 10 Ways to Burn Calories That You'll Love Summer Edition
Summer isn't officially here yet, but it does kind of feel like we skipped spring and went straight into summer. And we're not complaining! Although we love being able to offer one of the best fitness facilities in downtown Omaha, we also love encouraging our members to get out into nature, try new things, and get friends and family involved in making healthy lifestyle choices. Here are our favorite ways to burn calories with summer fun!
Bike Riding
You don't have to have an expensive bike to go for a ride. In fact, you don't have to have one at all. We have 35 Heartland Bcycle stations all around town where you can rent bikes. Head to their site to download the app and find a station near you.
If you haven't tried it already, you have to give paddleboarding a go this summer. It's such a fun way to strengthen your core and get a great full body workout while staying cool. And if your doggo is a good swimmer, they should tag along! You can rent and use paddleboards at Glenn Cunningham Lake from Neighborhood Offshore Outfitter.
Kayaking is another relaxing way to explore our local lakes while burning some calories. Don't forget the sunscreen!
Call a buddy, get a playlist together, and get on the trail! Hiking is an excellent way to dive into nature and burn some calories. Spending time in nature has been known to reduce stress, and is in general, thought to increase our sense of wellbeing.
Taking the Dog for a Walk or Playtime
Why not work on improving your health with your best bud? A walk is good for both of you but even a game of fetch gets your blood pumping and increases the heart rate.
If you're a Pinnacle Fitness Club member, you have access to the largest and nicest indoor pool in downtown Omaha. Get some laps in or join one of our Aqua Fit classes for a high intensity, low impact workout.
Music is a fantastic tool to energize any workout. Whether you're going out to get your groove on, or having a one-man dance party in your living room, dancing is a fun, effective way to burn calories, break a sweat, and get those endorphins going.
Frisbee or Catch
Shoot out a group text and see who wants to meet up at the local park for a game of catch. It's a cheap, healthy way to connect with friends. And if you really get into it, you could earn a few at happy hour afterwards.
It can be tough to get everyone reeled into a game, so we love the idea of joining a volleyball league. The accountability factor really helps keep everyone engaged.
Badmitten or Other Lawn Games
A little competition always makes you work just that much harder. Lawn games certainly won't give you an intense workout, but a calorie burned is a calorie burned. Anytime you choose to be active over being sedentary, you've made a good choice!
We hope you'll keep this list in mind throughout the summer! We love the idea of making nature, music, and friends part of your summer healthy living routine. And if bugs and heat aren't really your thing, the club is cool, open, and bug-free. See you at the club!

Losing some weight, and getting truly lean are two very different animals. Chances are that all anyone needs to do after a period of slacking with their diet for a while, is to go back to eating like they normally would, and fat loss will ensue. Getting into the mid to low single digits with regards to body fat percentage, requires a lot more focus.
This at first may seem like I'm abruptly changing the subject, but how many of you reading this floss twice a day as recommended for the health of your teeth, as well as your cardiovascular health? I don't see a lot of hands. Granted it's difficult to see from where I'm sitting, but still-you get my point. If you are unable to follow such simple guidance to a healthier you, then what makes you think you'll be able to follow a drastic shift in nutritional philosophy? I'm not including training in this, as the title stated, 'Get Lean'. Allow me to explain that last sentence.
I've gotten ripped lifting heavy, light, or not at all. I've gotten ripped with cardio, and without. I've even gotten ripped without a gym membership, supplements, or whey. That's because getting ripped has almost everything to do with your diet, and much less to do with your training. While training is an essential component, it's our diet that bears the results.
So what, if anything, does flossing twice a day have to do with this? Flossing is a relatively minor detail that could so easily be omitted from our life, and may very well have very little to do with the end result in terms of our health. I admit it's true. It's the attention to detail that explains the flossing comparison. That is the point I'm trying to make.
When you're on a path to a specific fitness goal, where your body fat percentage is important to your success in achieving that goal, then attention to detail is crucial. It's the difference between top three, or failing to qualify. I know 'getting ripped' is only dealing with a very small portion of those involved in fitness. It's bodybuilders and fitness competitors mostly. These people are hard-wired (or so it seems) to be locked in to the specifics of their diet.
So what does this have to do with the rest of us? For the rest of us this means making sure we're getting enough protein to aid in recovery, enough fat to elicit the correct hormonal response stimulated by our training, and enough carbohydrates to give us fuel for our workouts. It means getting all of the micro nutrients needed to maintain good health. It means getting enough sleep to recover, and refocus. It means staying motivated even when those around us are in need of our energy.
Attention to detail means all kinds of things. It means something different to each of us most likely. Still, it's taking care of the little things that makes the big things come together. So start flossing your way to whatever your fitness goals are. You know what I mean.
Happy Lifting!

How Contract Contingencies Protect An Earnest Money Deposit
Posted on: 19 September 2017
Once a prospective home buyer decides to purchase a particular property, a purchase offer must be written out. Along with a written offer, the buyer usually submits a payment of earnest money to one of the seller's representatives. To minimize the risk of losing the earnest money if the sale never closes, home buyers can include protective contingency clauses in a purchase offer.
There is no set formula to determine how much earnest money to include with a purchase offer. However, a seller effectively removes their property from the market after they accept an offer, waiting for the proposed sale to close. The amount of earnest money a seller is willing to accept is often dependent on the robustness of the local real estate market.
In a slow real estate market, any reasonable offer is likely to be considered, even if it is accompanied by a small earnest money deposit. On the other hand, a seller in a more competitive market is likely to expect more earnest money with a purchase offer. Contract contingencies allow you to nullify a purchase offer and recover your earnest money if certain unforeseen circumstances arise.
Home inspection results
The most obvious reason to alter or nullify a purchase offer is if a major structural defect is discovered. To fully evaluate a roof, for example, someone has to enter the attic of the house. The entire underside of the roof must be inspected for any signs of discoloration from water leakage. An inspector may need to get on top of the roof to accurately determine its topside condition.
As with the roof, you may want someone to closely examine the structural foundation. The gradual settling of a building foundation is difficult to detect without a professional inspection. If the house has a crawl space, someone probably needs to visually inspect the underside of the flooring for any mold or wood decay.
Appraisal values
Making a home sale contingent on an appraisal ensures that you don't pay too much. A low appraisal value may also result in a mortgage loan denial. A contract contingency for appraisal value is probably acceptable to most sellers. However, contingencies for issues such as the interest rate on a mortgage are less likely to be received favorably.
With a properly written purchase offer, your funds remain safe as your home purchase moves toward the date of closing. Earnest money is typically held by either the seller's lawyer, the seller's broker, or the title company that insures the property. Contact a real estate specialist for more information about homes for sale in your area.Share

Winner of the Media Ecology Association's 2004 Erving Goffman Award
Corey Anton is quickly becoming a major voice in the developing interdisciplinary field of communication and philosophy. Selfhood and Authenticity explores the landscape marked out in his investigations with a combined theoretical incisiveness and praxis-oriented understanding. It makes a very important contribution to the existing literature in the field." — Calvin O. Schrag, author of The Self after Postmodernity
"Corey Anton's creative utilization of phenomenologies of embodiment as a basis for a communicative self is accentuated by a clear command of phenomenological literature. The discussion of sociality is excellent, and the explication of temporality is grand in scope. The work is, in other words, a short systematic treatise." — Lewis R. Gordon, Brown University
Drawing upon numerous influential thinkers of the twentieth century, including Heidegger, Bakhtin, Merleau-Ponty, Sartre, Goffman, Schrag, and Taylor, Selfhood and Authenticity articulates the phenomenological constitution presupposed by any process of social construction. Anton brings phenomenology and existential philosophy to wider audiences and makes complex insights refreshingly lucid by systematically radicalizing and integrating the notions of embodiment, sociality, symbolicity, and temporality.

Fantastic Fact File
Give an example of something positive you've learned from working in IT.
Working in IT is all about staying on the cutting edge of technology. From a PC format to Software-Defined networks and all things in-between, everything has a positive impact in my everyday life.
What's your favourite film in the whole world and why?
I'm torn between The Godfather 2 and Lord of the Rings 2. They are so different and their only similarity is that I like both sequels more that the first movie. If you ask me the same question tomorrow I'll come up with another favourite movie that will probably have something to do with a fantasy/post-apocalyptic world, a crime or a reverse chronology storyline.
What makes you laugh heartily every time and why?
Real life is the best comedy. I try to surround myself with smart people with great sense of humour. Oh… and of course the "garbage men" scene from Louis CK which represents the funniest memory of my childhood weekend mornings.
If you had a whole week out to do something you really wanted and were given £1000 gratis to do it, what would you do and why?
I would pick a random travel destination that matched the budget and go for an adventure. The world is so big and I have seen so little.
Tell us something that you personally aim to achieve inside the next 5 years.
As I recently moved here from Greece my goal is to immerse myself in the Scottish lifestyle and work towards my British citizenship.
Give us one reason that you wanted to work with GM…
Grant McGregor is the finest field to plant my seeds. Starting from the company's vision & core values and working all the way to the innovative IT products and services.

FUELSTAT has introduced some game-changing tech to improve the ease, cost and speed for diagnosing jet fuel fungus. With FuelStat's on-site fuel test all you need is 10 minutes to discover which microbes are living in your aircraft's fuel. Some users are calling it a revolution in fuel testing. And you can judge for yourself with a free trial.
Microbes thrive wherever there is food and water. Aviation fuel systems are therefore ideal habitats for bacteria, yeasts and moulds that feed off the hydrocarbons in fuel and the smallest amounts of water from condensation and humidity that is an almost unavoidable consequence in aircraft tanks.
Microorganisms which grow unchecked can block fuel filters and cause gauging problems.They're also extremely corrosive, and can damage the aircraft tank structure.
With FUELSTAT's on-site fuel test all you need is 10 minutes, a flat, clean surface, a pair of latex gloves and a 200 ml sample to discover which microbes are living in your aircraft's fuel.
Already used by over 400 Commercial Airlines and their repair partners globally, FUELSTAT Plus uses the latest cutting-edge immunoassay technology.
You may be aware of immunoassay for pregnancy testing, prostate testing etc. The huge advantage is that FUELSTAT Plus only searches for the microorganisms that thrive in jet fuel and do damage to fuel systems and not the billions of airborne and surface dwelling microbes such as common flu virus, e coli etc. Thus, no special measures must be taken for sterility when testing in the hangar or workshop and no false positives are possible, avoiding the risk of expensive unnecessary cleaning and biociding that is not required.
With over half the cost of traditional testing methods being labour-related, FUELSTAT Plus also saves a considerable amount of cost.
The great piece of kit gives a negligible, low or high reading which corresponds to the limits laid down in the IATA Guidance Material on Microbial Contamination in Aviation Fuel tanks. This clearly indicates the aircraft's fuel system status, and what action to take, if any.
FUELSTAT Plus also comes with FUELSTAT Result, the free-to-download app for both IOS and Android platforms.
"The tester now only has to hold their smartphone over the test and it will automatically read the test and upload results to a secure portal instantly when connected to Wi Fi.
The result is given in industry standard terms; red, amber, & green categories. Heavy contamination is the most serious category, hence red. Once transitted to the secure company portal, managers can react immediately, save the data to help identify longer term trends and archive the results. And results can be exported to Excel for analysis
The FUELSTAT solution is clearly a revolution in fuel testing.
No longer do you have to send samples off and wait up to 10 days for results. With FUELSTAT you simply do the test yourself using the clear instructions, then record the results using the FUELSTAT Result app in less than 15 minutes.
FUELSTAT has been established in the aviation industry for over 10 years as an IATA recommended test for major airlines and affiliated companies to monitor their fuel quality. Conidia Bioscience are strategic partners with IATA, and have recently been presented the award for 5 years Partnership.
"IATA Strongly recommends testing of each aircraft fuel tank for microbiological contamination at least once a year."

In St. George, Utah our air conditioners are essential. But keeping up with the heat can make for an expensive utility bill.
Balancing your air conditioner usage, temperature comfort, and your utility bill can seem like a daunting task. To help you stay cool this summer and avoid a huge utility bill we've compiled a list of 5 energy saving ideas.
1. Remember to Replace Your Air Filter
Spring and Summer can bring a lot of particles into your air system causing your air filter to become dirty. A dirty filter restricts air flow to your HVAC system, which can make it work harder and even cause it to malfunction.
Changing your air filter is an inexpensive way to ensure that your air conditioner isn't overworking itself and driving up your energy bill.
2. Keep the Cool Air Inside
Before the heat of summer sets in look for cracks and spaces in your home where cool air may escape and seal it. The areas around your windows and doors are good places to check for air leaking to the outside.
Also be mindful of opening doors and windows in the Summer as it is a quick way to lose your air conditioned air and bring in the outside heat.
3. Use a Smart Thermostat
A smart thermostat like a NEST or Ecobee is a great money saving investment. Smart thermostats learn your schedule and temperature preferences as you make adjustments to it throughout the week. Once your temperature preferences are learned it can start to adjust itself so that you are not running your air conditioner when it is not needed, but also ensure that you come home to a comfortable temperature.
4. Don't Just Rely on Your Air Conditioner
Use fans and shades. Fans can enhance your air conditioners cool air by boosting the movement of the air throughout your home, lessening the burden on your air conditioner. Using your shades or curtains to block out the hot sunlight during the day can also help to cool your home.
5. Yearly Routine Maintenance
Air Conditioner manufacturers recommend yearly maintenance to ensure the longevity of your HVAC system. We offer a 20 point signature air conditioner tune-up that includes checking, adjusting, and or cleaning the following:
- Blower Motor – measure amperage and voltage for proper operation
- Thermostat – test for proper operation, calibrate and level
- Change air filter (non-standard filters cost extra)
- Bearing – inspect for wear and lubricate
- Inspect indoor coil
- Condensate Drain – flush and treat with anti-algae
- Inspect Condenser Coil
- Refrigerant – monitor operating pressures
- Safety Devices – inspect for proper operation
- Electrical Disconnect Box – inspect for proper rating and safe installation
- Electrical Wiring – inspect and tighten connections
- Test/Inspect contactors for burned, pitted contacts
- Inspect electrical for exposed wiring
- Inspect and test capacitors
- Inspect fan blade
- Clean condenser coil and remove debris
- Inspect service valves for proper operation
- Measure supply/return temperature differential
- Inspect ductwork for energy loss
- Compressor – monitor, measure amperage and volt draw and wiring connections
Consider a New Air Conditioner
If you have an older air conditioner or are just having trouble with your current unit consider the benefits of a new energy efficient model. A new energy efficient air conditioner is able to operate quieter and with less energy consumption than older models. Combine a new air conditioner with a smart thermostat and you'll have the ideal solution for cost effective temperature control. Call the experts at Black Diamond Heating and Air and let us help you choose the right air conditioner for your home.

Do you know what you need to know about emphasis-of-matter and other-matter paragraphs? Sometimes auditors elect to or are required to add an extra paragraph after the opinion paragraph. You need to know why and when.
This post gives you the leg up on emphasis-of-matter (EOM) paragraphs and other-matter (OM) paragraphs.
First, let's first define the two terms.
AU-C 706.05 provides the following definitions:
Emphasis-of-matter paragraph. A paragraph included in the auditor's report that is required by GAAS, or is included at the auditor's discretion, and that refers to a matter appropriately presented or disclosed in the financial statements that, in the auditor's professional judgment, is of such importance that it is fundamental to users' understanding of the financial statements.
Other-matter paragraph. A paragraph included in the auditor's report that is required by GAAS, or is included at the auditor's discretion, and that refers to a matter other than those presented or disclosed in the financial statements that, in the auditor's professional judgment, is relevant to users' understanding of the audit, the auditor's responsibilities, or the auditor's report.
Notice that an EOM refers to "a matter appropriately presented or disclosed in the financial statements," while an OM refers to "a matter other than those presented or disclosed in the financial statements."
Now, let's take a look at sample EOM and OM paragraphs.
Here's a sample EOM paragraph:
Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note X to the financial statements, the Company has elected to change its policy for determining cash equivalents in 20X 7. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.
Here is a sample OM paragraph:
Other Matter
In our report dated April 18, 20X5, we expressed a qualified opinion since the Company's main office had a material unrecognized impairment loss. As noted in Note 12, the Company has now recognized the impairment in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, our present opinion on the restated 20X4 financial statements, as presented herein, is different from that expressed in our previous report.
You also need to know the presentation requirements for EOM and OM paragraphs.
AU-C 706.06 and 706.07 provides guidance in reference to EOMs. The auditor should:
AU-C 706.08 provides guidance in reference to OMs. The auditor should:
Sometimes EOMs are required; here are examples:
See exhibit B of AU-C 706 for a complete listing of AU-C sections requiring EOM paragraphs.
An EOM is commonly required when a company has a change in an accounting principle (that has a material impact). AU-C 708 Consistency of Financial Statements paragraphs .07-.08 provides guidance on when the EOM is required.
The auditor also has an option to use an EOM to emphasize matters that are not required by audit standards. So, sometimes EOMs are included because they are required (e.g., going concern) and, other times, they are optional (e.g., to highlight a related party transaction).
Sometimes OMs are required; here are examples:
See exhibit C of AU-C 706 for a complete listing of AU-C sections requiring OM paragraphs.
Of course, creating your opinion is just a part of wrapping up your audits.

Grass is greener on drought's other side
April 20, 2003
The parks have dark green grass, or soon will. The golf courses will look lavish as usual.
So why can't Joe Homeowner have that same lush look at his home?
That we're talking about green grass at all is good news. Consider these developments:
– In a wise move, the city of Greeley nixed its plan to drastically increase water fees based on consumption. The new fees would have forced most residents to pay between $11 and $190 more a month if they didn't conserve.
– Cities in Weld County have varied watering restrictions, from Windsor's strict once-a-week schedule to Severance's every-other-day plan.
– Snowpack in the winter and early spring has been better than expected. But it hasn't been plentiful enough to brush away the effects of years of damaging drought.
Recommended Stories For You
– The Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District set its quota this year at 40 percent. That means if a water user has 100 acre-feet of Colorado-Big Thompson water, only 40 acre-feet will be delivered this year. Although that sounds bleak – the quota is the lowest in the district's history – it could have been worse. The district had long been considering a 30 percent delivery rate.
– Green grass in our parks will give Greeley residents a green place to play sports and relax until the watering ban is lifted. But parks and recreation employees are striving for a 20 percent reduction over 2001, a goal that will help the city reach its consumption savings goal.
The news isn't all bad. Cities and towns could have enacted no outdoor watering rules. That would have left us all with a brown depression.
But the bottom line is we all must continue to be prudent and conserve water.
"I think if we challenge the public and tell them this is a serious problem, they are going to respond," Greeley water director Jon Monson said this week.
We're betting he's right. Our prudence will pay dividends as we brace for another anticipated hot summer. A brutal hot and dry summer like last year's will put us right back into Armageddon predictions and incessant drought talk.
And Joe Homeowner? He might not have the greenest of grass, but he can follow the rules and help us conserve water so we have some in the future.
We're not out of this predicament yet, folks.
