Hello, friends and followers of our Open Stage for the UnderAge! We have a big change coming for you that is going to commence on Sept 28!
We are taking a different route this season for how we will working with the youth of our community. Instead of operating a monthly open stage that is proceeded by a songwriting session, we are going to be operating a song writing-intensive program, beginning on Septemeber 28, six classes, two weeks apart, and culminating in a songwriters circle in December. In this workshop, each of our participants will be challenged in new ways, encouraged to expand their knowledge of songwriting and production and explore the technical aspect of songwriting. They will learn about structuring a song, different genres, writing with a mentor, writing a non-standard structure, and writing on demand. At the end of the session, they will have six full songs completed!
As a second level to this songwriting development, we will also be offering artist development- "Where Music and Business Meet", where we will offer six sessions about career building in the music industry. Topics include; marketing, booking, branding, building a team, studio recording, and stagecraft. The focuses of the series will be in preparation for recording and promoting a six-song EP Those who are interested in this section have to first complete the songwriting development portion.
We are very excited about this new opportunity and very excited to work with young people in central to help them further their musical career and understanding of the music industry.
Anyone with interest in learning more or signing up can contact us directly for more details.

As your dentist, Dr. David Rever has an in depth knowledge of the musculoskeletal structure of the head and neck. He is uniquely qualified to provide effective treatment with Botox® Cosmetic and dermal fillers. Advanced Total Dental Care can address the fine lines and wrinkles that begin to emerge as we age or as a result of lifestyle habits. In addition, Dr. Rever has completed advanced training for administering injections to ensure you enjoy a safe, effective treatment for your cosmetic concerns. Dr. Rever offers the convenience of experienced cosmetic dental care as well as the opportunity to complete your look with a facial rejuvenation treatment.
Botox & Dermal Fillers: What to Expect
Dr. Rever will discuss your cosmetic concerns and goals to be sure that Botox® or Juvederm® are right for you. The number of injections recommended will be determined by the number of areas to be treated and the desired result. Typically, treatment is completed in about 30 minutes and you can resume your normal activities right after.
We will apply a topical anesthetic for your comfort and Dr. Rever will place the injections in the area(s) to be treated using a very thin needle. Most patients feel only a brief pinching sensation as the injection is administered. You may experience minor tenderness, redness or swelling at the injection site for a couple of days. Your results will begin to emerge and become more noticeable over the coming weeks.
Your results will last for approximately 6 months and can be touched up at regular intervals during routine dental care appointments. This can enable you to conveniently maintain a refreshed, youthful appearance as well as healthy, beautiful smile in one location.
Botox® in Silver Spring: Why Choose Botox?
Botox offers a non surgical treatment option for turning back the clock on aging. Botox has been in wide use since its FDA approval in 2002 to treat a wide range of both cosmetic and health related concerns.
Botox is made from botulinum toxin type A, a neurotoxin that paralyzes targeted muscles for a smoother appearance of the skin and a more refreshed, youthful complexion.
Botox can treat:
- Fine lines and wrinkles of the face
- Deep furrows of the brow area
- Frown lines, laugh lines around the mouth
- Crows feet
Juvederm® in Silver Spring
Dr. Rever offers the option of Juvederm to restore volume in the lips and address deep nasolabial lines and wrinkles. A dermal filler, Juvederm contains hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance that diminishes with age. Replenishing HA with a soluble gel, Juvederm can restore lost volume and hydrate the skin for a more youthful, healthy glow.
Juvederm was FDA approved in 2006 for treating "smile lines" around the mouth and nose as well as plumping the lips. Juvederm has evolved into a family of dermal fillers that can treat all areas of the face with lasting results. Most patients enjoy results that last for a year or more.
Dr. Rever can work with you to manage your cosmetic goals with periodic touch up treatments when you visit for routine dental care.
Schedule An Appointment
To discuss how Botox can address your concerns, schedule a consultation with Dr. David Rever in our Silver Spring dentist office. We welcome new patients and serve many local communities including Colesville, Burtonsville, Laurel and Columbia, MD. In addition to cosmetic service, Dr. Rever offers experienced care for all of your oral health needs. Contact us at (301) 637-0960 or request an appointment online.

Educating myself played a big part in changing my mental diet. This little phrase was easy to say when the pressure was on. When the pressure is on, is not the time to initiate the diet. So use your time wisely. Watching TV , participating in idle conversation… is not a constructive use of your time.
I have found Proverbs to be a good way to re-school my mind. You can use it for a daily reading. There are 31 chapters in Proverbs. One for each day. Starting the day in the right frame of mind is the best thing you can do for yourself.
Having items on you and around you are very important to surviving this 7 day mental diet. In my pants pockets are Coins that reminded me where I came from and where I am going. I have a prayer rope. I also carry a rosary. In my truck are several books. There are pictures on the walls. Use anything that will remind you of what you are trying to do.
If you try to do this only with your mind you will lose the battle. Old ideas must be dismissed. New ideas must be implemented. Prayer is center point. Staying in contact with your God is crucial. Having visual reminders, use a prayer rope or a rosary when your hands are idle. This 7 day mental diet takes a mental, physical and spiritual approach. It is like a trying to sit on a 3 legged stool with one leg missing. You will at some point lose your balance.
Here is another phrase from the same family.
Never argue with a fool, it will look like the conversation of two fools, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference. With this phrase you will start to see yourself like the world sees you. At some point this will keep you from acting out on your thoughts.

Downloading open source software is a new, rising alternative for downloading your software illegaly or paying big bucks for them, but the open source community is cluttered with poorly functioning and hardly maintained bad software which clouds you from some real jewels. In this list some familiar and unfamiliar pieces of software which are, at least as good better than the commercial alternative. Be prepared to find some software on there you already have, to surprise you: that piece of software you're running on your computer is open source, you can download the source code, and modify it to your needs if you know how. For some of these, that's why they are so good. Throughout this listing I will be looking at the pros and cons of the different open source alternatives, as well as the reliability towards the future (where does it get its money, how is it financially backed?).

You're unique!
Every person is a unique individual, even single-egged twins aren't exactly the same. As you grow up, you learn new and different things which influence your interests and the choices you make in your life. These interests influence how you perceive the world around you, what gets your attention and what doesn't.
The difference in this perception is a big issue for developers and designers. How can you make a program or object that suits everyone? This is something that's impossible to decide by yourself, in order to find out whether your program is of any use, you'll need to test it with other people in real-life situations. Sometimes this means that you'll need to design different versions of your software for different (groups of) people.
The most common example of this is software being in different languages, but this difference could go further than just language. White cars reflect the most amount of light, thus meaning that they are cooler and easier to cool in hot countries, but harder to find in the snow in cold countries. Designing a practical and worldwide useful object suddenly becomes a lot harder!
It is time for something new
"Progress, for the sake of progress, should be discouraged" – the character Dolores Umbridge in the Harry Potter series.
Today, my leisure time organization launched their new membership administration website. Change has always been a very peculiar thing in the world. First of all, from an organizational point of view, it comes with risk which can be avoided, so the improvement should be bigger than the risk it takes to implement the change. On a more individual level, change has always divided people into two groups: the change adorers, who welcome the new situation, and the change haters, who detest the new situation or, in most cases, just simply don't want to change.
The psychological interest in the last group has grown over the years, especially with the development and change of technologies in recent years. According to theory, change has three stages: the unfreeze stage, in which the audience of the change is prepared for the change, the change stage, in which the change is implemented, and the freeze change, in which the day-to-day activities are resumed, with the change implemented. In a way, change has always met its resistance during all three of its stages, whether the change is an improvement or not. If you're changing any functionality in your software or tool, be prepared to lose some of your customers just because of it.
The pocket knife of the internet
Originally, my interest in user interface design came from the poor design of websites. Back then, websites had poor designs (even poorer than nowadays) and were hard to navigate. Every website has its own method to deal with the problems of limited screen real estate and too much functionality. A nice example of a good way to do this is Google. The products and possibilities they offer keep growing, but the complexity of their products has been stripped down to a minimum. A nice example of this is their main page, where there are two buttons and a menu bar. The design of their menu bar has been based on a swiss army knife, take out what you need, everything opens in a new tab, and whenever you are done using it, put it back again. I think this is a good example of a design of a big complex website.
Let the museum come to you
I admit, museums aren't the most popular day activity. So a post about museums is a challenge, but I like a challenge.
Today I ran into this museum website: http://www.computerhistory.org . It's both a museum you can visit (located in california) as it is a website about the history of the thing you are reading this from – whether it is a computer, laptop, a handheld tablet/phone or something different entirely. Apart from being a very good example of a poor website design (I got lost in five minutes, try to stay on longer), it has a few online exhibits ranging from the marketing side of the computer to the technical details of a silicon chip. It's worth checking out to find out where the thing you are holding actually came from, and you're done browsing Wikipedia.
What you inherit from your previous owner is…
I think that a student room or studio is one of the biggest hand-me downs in The Netherlands. The many times such a room has been handed down from previous owners is uncountable – and I don't want to know to be honest. So whenever you change something in your room, you might want to consider the next owners: is this of any use to them? Maybe consider the building owner or maintainer, is this something you could sell to them after your use, like a brand new wooden floor? In my girlfriend's studio, I found something of which the use seems quite useless, two power plugs against the ceiling on places where I'd guess a previous owner saw the use of putting a power plug over there, but we keep guessing at the point of it. Got any ideas? The only idea i can think of is a light, but where would you put the lightswitch?Jump to the ceiling and put it on (or off)?
…and what your stopwatch should look like
Following up on this post about the poor design and functionality of watches, this is how an actual stopwatch should look like.
It's the runmeter app on my iPhone, I can select a route and an activity, the start button is present and easy to reach, it changes into a stop button when I'm running, everything I need is just right there. With this app, comes a lot of additional features that ordinary stopwatches don't have, like an extensive history calendar and the actual route of my run. This is a nice view of how technical developments enable us to make gadgets not only more user-friendly, but also have more functionality at the same time. From being a general watch which you had to wind up yourself and correct every few minutes, we definitely got a long way in a relatively short period of time. The speed of this development suggest that we're in the midst of an information and technology revolution, where the possibilities are only limited by our imagination and resourcefulness.

Rhino poaching has increased exponentially since 2008. South Africans, fed up with the illegal exploitation of their heritage, took matters into their own hands – LeadSA convened a Rhino Emergency Summit during 2011 and the Rhino Action Group Effort (RAGE) emerged from the resolutions adopted there. RAGE is a civil initiative that seeks to support co-ordinated efforts by several government departments, formal conservation agencies and the private sector to curb poaching. Rhinos are commodities targeted by organised crime. RAGE acknowledges that the connection of rhino poaching to other forms of organised crime may lead to widespread societal degradation. Every law-abiding South African therefore has both a responsibility and a duty to blow the whistle on rhino poaching – it helps ensures the wellbeing of society as a whole.
A small group of people comprised of marketers, television and radio producers, public communicators, lawyers, scientists, rhino owners and tourist operators volunteer their time to work intensively to achieve RAGE's vision. RAGE wants to see rhino deaths resulting from natural causes only – and that South Africans are not caught up in the illegal trade of rhino horn and organised crime.
This is a tall order and the volunteer group has been on a mission to gain support from the private sector and government institutions. It does this by co-ordinating information, gathering funding and expertise that complements efforts by government departments and associated agencies to curb rhino poaching.
The RAGE volunteer team has also tasked itself with changing attitudes to the use of rhino horn through information and awareness campaigns. After the summit in 2011, RAGE instituted a national anti-rhino poaching reporting number to allow the public to blow the whistle on poachers and inform the Hawks,
South Africa's Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation. RAGE also facilitated several intelligence investigations by raising and distributing R1 417 180 in support of the Hawks. RAGE representatives took part in needs analyses to assist in the delivery of a co-ordinated approach seeking to ensure rhino security. Some R2 063 524 was raised for anti-poaching units, R561 120 for training anti-poaching rangers, R925 399 for the establishment of local response team nodes (including equipment and rewards for information leading to arrests), R600 000 for operational antipoaching costs in Kruger, R77 000 for ranger wellbeing and R111 250 for the printing and distribution of crime scene support documents to assist with prosecutions. RAGE's marketers, television and radio producers and public communicators made this possible, with outstanding fundraising initiatives allowing 95% of RAGE's annual income to be distributed for rhino initiatives. Since its inception, RAGE has raised R8 400 000 in funding.
RAGE took on the challenge as part of the co-ordinating tasks assigned to its volunteer team that facilitated a website-based provision of trusted and vetted fundraising agents. This resulted in a government-driven NGO summit for co-ordinated fundraising activities. Of course, RAGE could not achieve any of its goals without the support of many individuals and organisations.
How did the activities of the RAGE volunteer team affect rhinos?Ultimately, it is a numbers game – a scoreboard of poached and live rhinos. Success will occur when poaching is reduced and when rhino populations grow. Integrated approaches using focused intelligence and task teams, supported through funding and expertise such as that facilitated by RAGE, can make the difference. RAGE learnt a very important additional lesson – co-ordination of integrated efforts is really hard for a civil action group. It works when government is the driver.
RAGE will continue to raise funds to support projects associated with the implementation of South Africa's integrated rhino-management strategy, and importantly, RAGE willseek to inform South African citizens of the threat of crime, including the threat of poaching, to rhinos and the wellbeing of people.

A Daring Couples Bedroom Game
As teens, my friends and I would play a game called "Never Have I Ever..." It was a simple sleepover game that we used to open up to each other. We'd talk and laugh about new adventures we tried or were definitely way too scared to try. It was an opportunity to be honest and talk to each other about our similarities and differences and give each other ideas about fun things to try in the future. I remember talking about everything from...

In January, ten judges gathered in a cooled room, and looked through over 2,000 photos entered in the second Trustpower Photographic Exhibition. We judged blind; no names, all we saw were images. Imagine our surprise to find out that the supreme winner was an eight-year-old. Lulu Boorman from Papamoa took out the competition with a shot which was felt sums up the best of life in the Western Bay.
Our judges were talented and knowledgeable. Karl Chitham from Tauranga Art Gallery, Anton Steel from BOP Film, Millie Newitt from Downtown Tauranga, Carolyn Schofield from Trustpower, and Belinda Francis from MediaWorks all had the tough job of narrowing the field and selecting winners.
We all agreed that the quality of the entries was a reflection of the top notch creative talent we have pooled in the Bay.
SUPREME WINNER + YOUNG PHOTOGRAPHER, 1st place
Splash! Lulu Boorman
I'm nearly nine and I love living in Papamoa. My family run down the sand dunes to the beach and dive into the waves. Holding my little camera and trying to take photos while waves crash into me is hard! We have a small, old camera,
but I like it because it's waterproof and fun to use.
What the judges said: An absolutely outstanding shot. Not only are you the photographer, but you are also the subject. A selfie! Everything's really crisp and sharp. There is such clarity in the water and detail in the bubbles, you can even see through to your neck behind the wave. There is just the right amount of light in the image, and even though you can feel the crash and energy of the wave, you are in perfect focus, your gaze connecting with the viewer. What an extraordinarily perfect summation of the Western Bay of Plenty.
YOUNG PHOTOGRAPHER, 2nd place
Beach flags, Ellie Thompson
I'm 12 and live at The Mount. I belong to the Mount Surf Life Saving Club, so I take lots of pictures at surf carnivals. This is my sister competing at the Papamoa Junior Surf Carnival in December. I took it on my mum's phone.
NATURE + LANDSCAPE, 1st place
Wicked Skies at Motuotau Island, Karl Trethaway
A local builder with a passion for photography, I was working on a deck at the Mount and noticed the sky and thought 'I'm going to get wet.' During my lunch break I grabbed my camera and ran across the road to capture the clouds.
NATURE + LANDSCAPE, 2nd place
White-faced heron fishing for crabs, Kerry Maclean
I like to get out every weekend and take photos. I took this on a crisp, clear winter's morning with a low sun. By being patient and slowly walking as close as possible to the heron, so as not to spook it, it was just a case of timing his strike into the water.
CELEBRATION, 1st place
The 100th kiss, Andrew Warner
I'm a freelance photojournalist, and was assigned to photograph Doug Anderson on his 100th birthday. I sat him and wife Lilias behind the birthday cake and gathered the family round them. Still as sharp as a tack, and with a great sense of humour, a kiss on the cheek from Lilias brought a huge smile to Doug's face.
CELEBRATION, 2nd place
A colourful life, Nigel Watts
I took my first photo at 15. I'm retired now and still enjoy the hobby. I took this at the Colour Dash at Waipuna Park where the participants were encouraged to throw around containers of coloured powder. I used a telephoto lens to stay clear of the coloured dust!
DIGITAL MANIPULATION, 1st place
Char in a Fijian matt, Jared Dobbs
I took this shot at The Mount. My step daughter, Char, was helping me hang an epic hand-woven matt that I was given when we shot a wedding at a village in Fiji. The photo captures the magic of the morning light, a cute kid and the meaningful moment when you see your step-daughter has her whole life ahead of her.
DIGITAL MANIPULATION, 2nd place
Dream on and reach for the stars, Flynn Macredie
I started photography eight months ago when I stumbled across my grandfather's old Minolta lenses. The goal here was to take an inspiration shot for the school yearbook cover. The concept was to show the magic of the world and the power of dreams.
OUR PEOPLE, 1st place
Lifeguard Sid, Brydie Thompson
UNO Magazine had asked me to go and shoot Sid Salek. At 87, he is a bit of a legend at Omanu Beach Surf Life Saving Club. He's kind, enthusiastic, motivated, physically fit and a real character. The photo was taken mid-sentence as he was telling me a story.
OUR PEOPLE, 2nd place
Reluctant birthday portrait, Karlie Morrow
I'd been getting my daughter Sian to pose for some close-ups at her eighth birthday dinner. She'd had enough. I said 'one more' and zoomed out to take in the amazing sky, and this seagull obligingly flew into position.

Talk about throwing the book at him.
A Manhattan federal judge ruled today that a Swedish author cannot publish a book that he wrote in this country that was widely advertised as a sequel to J.D. Salinger's legendary tome "The Catcher In The Rye."
Judge Deborah Batts issued the ruling after hearing arguments last month in a lawsuit brought by the 90-year-old author against publishers of the book, "60 Years Later: Coming Through the Rye."
Batts said author Fredrik Colting's claim he wrote the book in order to examine Salinger's famous character Holden Caulfield was "lacking in credibility."
The judge also rejected arguments that a character in Colting's book that was meant to represent Caulfield 60 years later was a parody.
"The court finds that '60 Years' contains no reasonably perceived parodic character as to 'Catcher' and Holden Caulfield," Batts wrote.
The unauthorized spin-off was scheduled to be published later this summer.

Bought Lilac Point Balinese female. Now six years old. Beautiful cat. Nice personality. Wish I could care for more. Highly recommend. One of the nicest cats I've ever owned.

The loyalty Louis exhibits to his cats and kittens no matter where they might be on this Earth is amazing. This doesn't only extend to his fur babies but also to each family that comes to him for a kitten. He is exemplary in character, honesty and friendship. And he is the King at producing the most beautiful Siamese, Balinese and Orientals around. He has a true gift.

I highly recommend getting a kitten from Louis and his wonderful family with Permes cats. My Balinese kitten (Long Haired Siamese) is exactly what he said she would be. Angel has a wonderful temperament and is also very easily trainable. Also me and my mom normally have really bad allergic reactions to cats but with the scientific proof out there that this breed is at least 90% hypoallergenic we are not being affected all that much. It's wonderful. I know some have a hard time with the price tag for Cattery kittens but his prices are consistent with the area and I honestly think that buying a kitten from Louis was one of the best decisions I could have ever made in buying an animal. Him and the people that live in his household in Poulsbo Washington are such sweet people. It's going to be a 5 out of 5 from me.

Louis runs an amazing cattery. I adopted the sweetest Balinese kitten from him and couldn't be happier.

Five stars cannot possibly do Louis and his amazing cattery justice. In August 2018, we welcomed one of his beautiful cinnamon point males into our family, and it was one of the best decisions my wife and I ever made. Our little guy Valentin is stunningly beautiful, intelligent, outgoing, and affectionate. He is truly one of the family and loves to participate in every aspect of our lives. Anytime a lap is available, he comes to sit in it. No lap? No problem. He'll cuddle on ...your back, your arm, your chest, your leg. You'll even get a complimentary bath and gentle hairstyling. Valentin loves to talk, and offers his opinion on everything from you hitting the two-minute snooze button, to the delicious cheese you're eating at lunch, to the fireplace not being turned on in the morning. He adores people and our other pets, and is a constant companion. And last, but not least, Louis has been phenomenal. He worked with us every step of the way to ensure that we had a kitten who was a good fit for our home (we already had a Siamese and a Doberman.) We flew from Nevada to pick up Valentin, and Louis made sure we had all the necessary paperwork and accommodations to ensure a smooth flight home. He is quick to respond to questions and concerns, and was a wealth of knowledge about Oriental Shorthair cats and feline care. We feel grateful every single day that Louis entrusted us with one of his amazing kittens....

My family adopted a sweet little girl kitty we named Luna from Louis. The entire experience was wonderful. Louis took the time to make sure the kitten matched our family. We had lost our long time family cat and were very heartbroken with the void that created.
Our kitten is a perfect fit. Loving, smart and blended perfectly into our home. She is playful, smart and truly beautiful. Louis breeds pure bred classic lines with loving temperaments. We could not be happier. Thank you Louis❤

I just got the most beautiful adorable obedient carefree very smart and the listing goes on and on and on. I am so very happy thanks to Louis for your help. You have the most adorable kitties in the whole world. Thanks very much, he is so elegant and wants to be with you. I am in love and he loves the house. Thanks I will call again for a girlfriend for him. They will look gorgeous together with the most beautiful eyes. Best XO

My husband and I adopted our Sookie back in July and she is such a wonderful addition to our family. Louis was such a pleasure to work with and the love and care he has for all his fur babies is evident in the careful interviewing he gives each potential home. I appreciated greatly that he cared so much and it made me feel confident about bringing our girl into our home.

First, Louis the owner took a personal car of who I was, making sure I would be a responsible pet owner, and then real concern that I would get the cat that I would love. I have purchased 3 cats from breeders that were defective and their early deaths were heartbreaking. Permes cats are all perfect, beautiful and have great temperaments. I would never go anywhere else. I would also buy from his daughter. Their love and care of their cats come truly from their hearts and care knowledge of breeding.

Rovers snap up striker Carl
Story courtesy of Burton Mail
Gresley Rovers have completed the signing of former Tamworth striker Carl Rathbone from Beazer Premier club Bromsgrove Rovers – ending a lengthy chase for manager, Frank Northwood.Rathbone, 26, stands by for his Gresley debut in the Banks's League local derby against Rocester at the Moat Ground tomorrow (3pm).
Northwood, who has been chasing Rathbone – a model maker in the motor industry – for several weeks, said: "It's been hard work getting Carl from Bromsgrove but he's a quality players who's always done the business against Gresley – and I've seen him do it against many other clubs."
Rovers' only doubt tomorrow is striker Brian Beresford who has been suffering a migraine.
Rocester tonight hope to complete the signing of Newhall United midfielder Micky Woods, but have delayed naming him in their squad.

My primary purpose here is to Learn and Teach what I've learned over these 54 years on this ball of dirt. Help with that is appreciated.
I am point-blank, on the Aspie Spectrum, and I often work on a "smart" phone.
Among other things, I'm an:
Aikidoka, Chef, Wood Splitter, Patternista, Lover, Husband, Navy Veteran, Equipment Technician, Electronics Technician, Refrigeration Engineer, and a blatant Truth teller.
I still take my Navy Oath (sworn on a copy of the Constitution) to protect Our Constitution as seriously as I did that first day in AFEES.
You'll notice that my writing "style" (if it can be called that) is "odd" at best. I am utterly point blank and I'm driven by Fact, Reason, and Logic because I'm on the Aspie Spectrum .
I've had a Navy Warrant Officer call me "A Regulation Radical Constitutionalist son of a bitch!" while wearing a slight smile.
He was, and is correct in that assessment. My self given moniker is Asshole Man, and I have the utterly uncanny ability to see the patterns over time in the most "delicate" subjects and speak about them in blunt language.
I've been a member of the Republican party from 1979 to 1981 when I walked away after having shredded Trickle Down " Economics " using Fact, Logic, Math and Reason, and being told by the Party to either "toe the party line or get out." I have zero time or tolerance for zealots of any sort, so I left with a double #1 salute.
I was as also a member of the Democratic Party from 1982 to 1986 when I shredded their second "Amnesty" lie using the same tools. They also told me to "toe the mark or get out." I've been independent ever since and haven't given a single tin dime to either Party since. I have supported individual candidates on both "sides" but I recognize that neither Party has been working for Citizens since before I was elegible to vote.
If you agree with my positions that's fine, if you disagree or want to dispute my positions that's fine too… However comma, If you are disputing my assertions bring your own verifiable Facts and the supporting citations (because I will). If you don't, or just assert the "party" line, with out unbiased Fact included, you will (most likely) get shot down. If you repeatedly assert the "party line" sans Fact (and supporting links, please, so your assertions and the basis of those assertions can be analyzed) I will block you, I'm not interested in rhetorical "debate" (the shouting of unsupported "party line" assertions across the gulf).
I am distinctly ANTI- Democratic Party and ANTI-Republican Party because I believe (and can prove) that BOTH parties are just the flip-sides of the same corporation-bribed coin playing their Good Cop/Bad Cop Gaslighting on us all.
If you are a member of either of those parties, please don't take my rants personally. They're generally targeted at the party brass, which I see as a distinctly different thing than the Citizens they are supposed to represent.
If you read my posts as rude, please don't take it personally. It's the Aspie (I call him "Asshole Man") in me. Unless I TELL you that it's personal, it's not.
In many ways (Human Rights, The US Constitution, Citizen Rights vs. government "Rights", Personal… not corporate.. Property Rights) I am radically liberal. In other ways (Gun Control and "rights" for illegal aliens) I am extremely conservative. In financial matters for the Nation I am OLD SCHOOL conservative. (Aka: Not one stinking dime of public money for multinational corporations, or the wealthy). I am firmly with the Trust Busters of the '30s and 40's on this and think we should have used the RICO Act on the bankers and ratings agencies who created the bust in '08 for fun and profit. I also think Bush and Obama belong in prison for their flat refusal to use the RICO Act there.
I regard the US Constitution as one of the most radically progressive documents to ever be used for the forming of a Nation and the protection of Her Citizens. I also believe that a LARGE part of the problems this Nation faces are directly due to the refusal by a bribed and treasonous Congress to Honor the Constitution which they each swore to Protect as their first job! I strongly recommend prosecuting Congresscritters under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment every single time they attempt to gut the Constitution which they swore to protect. My Single exception (because it has some truly serious built in stops) in this is the Amendment Process. If you think I'm mad at the government, you are correct. If you think I hate my Nation, your are dead wrong. I do and will continue to call out the LIES and Subterfuges of the government and I will continue to call members of My government to a Higher Standard than they are used to, or would like to comply with.

Releaf Meds is a premium Medical Marijuana Santa Ysabel store. Call us at 760-440-0040.
Santa Ysabel, is located in the eastern San Diego County, California, United States. It is community which is not governed by a local municipal corporation and can be found near the San Diego River, which is north of the Cleveland National Forest. Some of the notable sights within this particular town is the Julian Apple Pie factory and the famous Dudley's Bakery. Santa Ysabel at night is different. In the area are several old barns that are falling down from years of neglect. The golden grass, green trees and big skies might make for some impressive exposures if you're into nighttime photography.
When it comes down to a dispensary, it's generally referring to a store from which certain items or types of items are dispensed, i.e., sold. A premium Medical Marijuana Santa Ysabel store is a place through which you can get access to Medical Cannabis/Marijuana/Weed and other related items. These items sold legally under a legal setting are what you're going to have to deal with.
Dispensaries have been around the United States since the early '90s which have increased in number. Depending on the State's regulation for medical marijuana, it will affect the type of dispensary. This happens because of the diverse choice of states' within the country for recreational and medical usage of cannabis.
When you walk into most dispensaries, are going to have many different kinds of flowers, buds, on display for you to see. There may also be a possibility to smell and probably not touch them. The type of Cannabis sold at a premium Medical Marijuana Santa Ysabel store will rely on the local laws about the legality of it. You can find dispensaries for medical and recreational use, but once again it will rely on the regulations.
Flowers ranging from indica to hybrids of all sorts to indicas will have results to show the levels of THC, terpenoids, and cannabinoids. Edibles, concentrated products, glass, tinctures, vapes, rolling papers, nails for dabbing, dabbing utensils, tonics, and salves can also be found at a dispensary.
When it comes to finding a premium Medical Marijuana Santa Ysabel store, most people will first look on the internet. The internet is ever constant turning user-friendly, which can provide you a vast range of resources to point you in the right direction. From popular search engines such as Google to local website listing directory Yelp, you can get information on dispensaries nearby.
Cannabis smokers conduce to be a pretty close-knit tribe, and for the longest time primarily, the only way to get any information about cannabis was via word of mouth. The internet and legalization may have opened things up a bit, but asking someone with experience is better. You can ask your friends about their favorite dispensaries and see which one can suit you.

Lawmaker (c.650 BC – c.600 BC)
Draco was the lawgiver of Athens, the first statesman who wrote down the laws of the city since the mythological era when Thesaeus reigned as king of Athens. He was a political reformer who changed the political system of Athens, implementing laws which were very strict at the time. Revered by many, Draco was considered a very important statesman in the history of Athens and is now among the greatest lawgivers of antiquity, alongside Solon and Lycurgus.
Before Draco, Athens' laws were not written anywhere. Even though they existed, they were not available to the public hence citizens could not refer to them anywhere. Athens had been experiencing a period of long political decline, social instability and a crisis of values. It was around 621 BC when Draco was assigned to write down the laws of Athens so that they become available to the public. In addition, Draco passed down significant reforms of the law, implementing changes in criminal law and private law.
Draco's laws were originally written on wooden tablets before being chiseled on stone slabs and placed in public view. They were said to have been written with human blood. Even though most of his laws are not known, Draco's legislature was extremely strict, punishing even the simplest of crimes, such as theft being punished with death. His most well-known was the law of homicide, which was the only one kept by Solon when he succeeded Draco as lawgiver of Athens. Among some of Draco's laws were the implementation of the Ecclesia of the people, the passing down of political rights to all men who could be mobilized for war, the reduction of the jurisdiction of the Areios Pagos, the court of Athens concerning the preservation of laws and the ability of citizens to report the decisions of the Areios Pagos as unfair.
In spite of their severity, Draco's laws made every citizen of Athens equal before the law, regardless of their wealth or status. He succeeded in stabilizing Athens' political and social condition for almost half a century and highlighted the importance of discipline, which was eclipsing from the Athenian society. His laws combated crime and imposed order to an astounding degree. As a predecessor of Solon, Draco contributed significantly to the re-establishment of democracy in Athens and while his laws may have only lasted for almost half a century, they were necessary for putting Athens back on its former track.

Omar Pérez Salomón
A CubaNews translation. Edited by Walter Lippmann.
The fact that The New York Times, one of the most influential
dailies in the United States and the world, has published in one
month six editorials against the economic, commercial and
financial blockade that Washington imposed on Havana more than 50
years ago is a sign that the Cuba issue has given rise to
differing opinions within U.S. political circles.
However, the search for ways to tighten the net around the
largest island in the West Indies is what has prevailed so far in
the executive, the legislative and the judicial branches. Two
examples confirm this.
The first refers to legal claims for over a billion dollars
belonging to Cuba. These have been frozen by our northern
neighbor following U.S. court rulings against the Cuban
government in the last few years in its ceaseless pursuit of new
sources to collect money.
This is why Cuban assets derived from telephone communications
with the United States, blocked in U.S. banks since 1966, have
been totally plundered as a result of the
"compensation" ordered by the courts. One of the
most notorious was Miami Federal Judge Alexander King's
finding that the Cuban state and its Air Force had to pay $187.6
million dollars to the families of the pilots of the
counter-revolutionary "Brothers to the Rescue"
group whose planes were shot down when they violated Cuban
airspace on February 24, 1996.
On November 12, 1998, Judge King filed a motion before a New York
Federal Court seeking to order seizure of the blocked Cuban funds
and to start proceedings against AT&T and the Chase Manhattan
Bank. This was based on the Victims of Trafficking and Violence
Protection Act, approved on October 12, 2000, and thanks to which
the plaintiffs received around $97.6 million dollars.
The second example is the war declared by the multinational
Bacardi corporation against the French-Cuban Pernod-Ricard-Havana
Rum corporation over ownership of the Havana Club trade mark.
That ended in May 2012, when the U.S. Supreme Court prevented the
Cuban company Cubaexport from defending its right to renew
registration of the Havana Club brand with the U.S. Patent and
Trademark Office.
No enterprise has devoted so much in terms of money and resources
to finance actions against the Cuban Revolution as Bacardi, whose
managers have been involved in countless terrorist, subversive
and judicial maneuvers against Cuba. Back in the 1960s, Pepin
Bosch, the then head of Bacardi, organized the bombing of
Cuba's oil refineries. As it happened, his plan, as well
as a picture of the B-26 bomber he had intended to use, were
exposed in The New York Times and never materialized.
Bacardi's stockholders have stood out because of their
contributions to both Democratic and Republican Congress members
and anti-Cuban laws such as the Torricelli and Helms-Burton acts.
In the words of the Colombian journalist Hernando Calvo Ospina in
his book Ron Bacardi: la Guerra Oculta [Bacardi: The Hidden War],
"As one of the company's top executives has
admitted, Bacardi is a Bermuda-based company without a
nationality. And yet, it used its economic power and contacts in
the highest political circles to virtually draft a U.S. law
tailored to its own needs. Not only does this piece of
legislation –known as the Helms-Burton Act–
threaten Cuba's sovereignty and the survival of its
people, it also adds to the madness into which
capitalism's commercial system is dangerously creeping in
its longing for bringing down every barrier to its."
In violation of trade-related international standards, these same
actors promoted the approval of Section 211, as another step
toward the enforcement of the Helms-Burton Act included in the
4,000-plus-page 1999 budget bill. The first stages of Section 211
have it that no U.S. court can recognize any rights over foreign
trademarks or patents related to assets of an American citizen
confiscated without indemnity by the Cuban revolutionary
Jurisdiction over this
cause was thus denied to the judges.
As we can see, the fact that Pernod-Ricard executives attending
the recently-held Havana International Fair said they were ready
to market Havana Club rum in the United States and that several
American telecommunications companies such as AT&T and Verizon
are interested in re-establishing direct telephone links with
Cuba is not good enough. The whole thing is about penetrating the
anti-Cuban structure through which Washington's Cuba
policy is dictated.
