First hill climbed, St. Michaels Head Start promoted
Their first hill, perhaps one out of many more, is out of the way.
Twenty young students waited for their promotion ceremony to begin, seemingly unaware of what they had completed Friday afternoon at the Fort Defiance Chapter in front of smiling parents and family.
One of those students was Mason Clark, 5, from St. Michaels, whose mom, Latisha Clark, was taking pictures and screaming in celebration whenever his name was called.
"I hope he finishes school, graduates and goes on to college," Clark said of her son.
Clark said she didn't get a chance to go to college but wanted all three of her children not to stop after high school and to keep going.
"I wanted to go to school, but I put a stop to it to take care of my kids," said the stay-at-home mom. "He makes me smile everyday."
In addition to his promotion certificate, Mason also received an award for perfect attendance.

Amazon is reworking its film strategy, looking to get back on track after a couple of box office misses and a reportedly rough transition into self-distribution.
In an interview with the New York Times, Amazon Studios head Jennifer Salke said the company focused too narrowly on prestige films and didn't have enough variety. Going forward, Amazon will emphasize several "lanes" of movies for both the big screen and its streaming service Prime Video, including award-worthy films, classic "sexual thrillers" like "Basic Instinct," young adult movies and horror films from Blumhouse, the company responsible for "The Purge" series.
Going forward, Amazon aims to roll out about 30 original movies a year, Salke told the Times. Some will hit theaters, while others will go straight to Prime Video. Budgets could range from a few million dollars up to $50 million or more.
Amazon got off to a hot start in the movie business, cashing in with a pair of Oscars in 2017 for "Manchester by the Sea." But the Times reports that Amazon's trouble began later that year with the decision to distribute movies itself, rather than relying on established Hollywood partners to get its films in theaters.
Though Amazon's had a few misses on the big-screen recently, it's found success with some of its original series. Most notable is "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel," which took home five Emmy awards, including the honor for best comedy series.
In the Times interview, Salke reiterated that the famed director Woody Allen will not be part of Amazon's future film strategy. Amazon scuttled a deal with Allen to finance and distribute his films, amid renewed focus on the allegeations from his daughter Dylan Farrow, who has long alleged Allen sexually abused her when she was a child.
Earlier this month, Allen sued Amazon for $68 million, alleging that the tech giant backed out of a deal to finance and distribute his films over what the lawsuit calls a "25-year-old baseless accusation."
Salke took over the top job at Amazon Studios a year ago, several months after Roy Price was forced to resign as the head of the studio amid allegations of sexual harassment. Salke had been the president of NBC Entertainment since July 2011, where she was responsible for comedy development, drama development, current programming, casting, and diversity programming initiatives, among other things.

The Blair County coroner's office said a 6-year-old Altoona boy died of blunt force trauma after being attacked by a pit bull Thursday.
The (Altoona) Mirror reported that Gauge Eckenrode, a kindergarten student, was attacked by his family's dog.
Family friend Rick Vaughan told the newspaper that the boy's father heard the mother screaming at about 6 p.m. and found the dog on top of the boy. The father pulled the dog away, but the child succumbed to his injuries,
"His mother is taking it very, very hard," Vaughan told The Mirror. "He passed away in her arms."
The paper reported that the dog who killed the boy is dead and that the family asked police to remove a second dog from the home.

What Venus in Libra means for some of the Zodiac signs. Venus is a:
- Wealth planet and income or consult expanding planet for you if your ascendant or Moon are the signs of Sagittarius, Virgo and Aries.
- Career-expanding planet for four months if your ascendant or Moon are in Capricorn, Cancer or Libra.
- Happy-mind and Pleasure filled planet for you for four months if your ascendant or Moon are Cancer constellation. Enjoy life!
- Romance planet and relationship expanding four months if your ascendant or Moon are in Aries or Libra.
Venus in Libra brings Harmony and Peace
Venus in Libra helps people around the world gather ideas which will help harmony, peace and healing in new-found ways.
Venus enters Libra for four months and builds support for a new level of connection between people on the planet. Look for more understanding, active listening, connecting through food, community, dance, the arts and bringing families together for healing in our neighborhoods and around the world!
This is a powerful place for the planet of beauty, the arts, music, connection and love.
Venus in Libra is helping usher in the Golden Zone of the Year because Venus and Jupiter will both be in Libra (good-giving planets in a good-giving constellation) plus Mercury will be at its most powerful all year long, all at the same time. The Golden Zone fully lines up in mid-September. And you want to use all parts of the energy of Light with Venus in Libra as of September 1 and the Sun in Leo at the same time!
The Golden Zone of 2018
When the three planets of guidance, learning and support are all in "Good-Giving" places, this supports the projects, people and intentions which bring kindness, creativity, beauty, connection and love into the world. So, if you are a service provider, a coach, a health coach, a teacher or anyone working on projects which bring harmony and healing to people or the planet – look to be supported in extraordinary ways.
The support will be about entrepreneurs, visionaries and philanthropists coming together – families and communities coming together to build new networks or heal old wounds to move forward. It is such a beautiful time that I called it the Golden Zone!
So, if you are looking for a job, sharing your health fostering as a coach or brainstorming new projects at work this is an incredible time where we can all be at our best and share and support each other.
Look to receive and grow goodness in your life for these four months – and for some it will be a time to grow wealth!

Find out how you can save money on heating and cooling costs by saving energy the easy way by reading this informative article!
that energy plants have to work. Energy plants produce pollution into the air. Therefore, if they create less energy, they also create less pollution.
Experts estimate that, in one recent year alone, consumers and businesses together saved billions of dollars in energy costs.
In your home, for example, appliances are large users of energy. If you're in the market for a new appliance, the government recommends that you choose a stove, refrigerator, or freezer that carries the Energy Star (TM) seal. Energy Star (TM) is a program that checks products to make sure they are energy efficient. If they are, then they attain a seal of approval from Energy Star (TM). This program is required to follow rigid guidelines that have been established by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the United States Department of Energy (USDE).
It's easy to find an appliance that complies with the Energy Star (TM) standards. And, you don't have to sign up for anything, or fill out any paperwork. Buying a new appliance and saving energy at the same time only requires that you purchase the one you want, take it home, and use it!
Products that are given the Energy Star (TM) seal include stoves, refrigerators, freezers, air conditioning units, heating units, light bulbs, light fixtures, hot water heaters, computers, washing machines, dishwashers, humidifiers, dehumidifiers, windows, doors, and even entire homes! All of these machines and products can waste a large amount of energy!
Now that you know what seal to look for when you're choosing an energy - using product, you may wonder how much money using one of these products can REALLY save you. Experts can only estimate that an energy efficient home can save the occupants approximately thirty - three per cent on their total energy bill. It's also estimated that you can save approximately forty dollars by changing the type of bulbs you use. Specifically, that's forty dollars during the life of the bulb if you use a fluorescent light bulb instead of an incandescent one.
Using energy efficient products is only half of the solution. You also need to practice saving energy whenever it's possible in your home. For example, make sure that your furnace is well maintained and running efficiently. And, turn the thermostat on your heating unit down at night. Turn off lights that aren't necessary, and turn off your computer when it's not in use.
How much- in dollars and cents- that you save is dependent on the price you pay for electricity, for example, and the amount you use. You can figure out approximately how much an appliance or a machine costs you to use it, though. To do this, you'll need to know how much you pay for one kilowatt hour of electric. Your electricity provider can tell you this amount. Then, check the appliance or machine to find out what its wattage is. Divide that number by a thousand. This will tell you the number of kilowatts that it uses every hour. Finally, multiply the kilowatts per hour by the price you pay times the hours it is used. The final answer will tell you how much money it costs to use that appliance or machine.

Something really interesting has been going on in reporting about the Ray Gosling story over the last 24 hours (actually over the last 12).
Not having watched the East Midlands regional news/current affairs programme 'Inside Out' concerned, I only heard about Ray Gosling's confession when it was on the local news headlines after the 10pm national news last night.
There, the story was introduced as 'documentary filmmaker and journalist Ray Gosling has confessed on BBC East Midlands 'Inside Out' that he had killed a man in a mercy killing'. It went on say that he did not identify the man, although a brief extract from the programme broadcast earlier on Monday evening was included in the short East Midlands news bulletin.
When I went to bed a few minutes later, and was listening to the radio, I caught the Radio 4 news (and possibly even the World Service news mentioned the story once I switched over...?) who included the same story in their headlines and news coverage. They introduced the story by describing Gosling as a 'documentary filmmaker and gay rights activist' who had confessed to 'killing his lover who was dying from AIDS'.
None of those other phrases had appeared in the introductory comments to the East Midlands 10.30pm news coverage of the story which had included the Inside Out extract of Gosling talking about his actions....
By this morning, the 7am news was still describing Gosling as a 'gay rights activist' who had confessed to 'killing his lover who was dying from AIDS'. But by 8am, the news had changed the latter phrase to 'a friend who was dying from AIDS'.
By 8.24am, Sarah Montague this morning on Radio 4's Today programme described him as confessing to having 'suffocated his lover' which Gosling quickly clarified in the interview by saying "he wasn't my partner, he was my bit on the side".
Now, here are my thoughts:
1) why did East Midlands news in their coverage of their own programme omit/editorially exclude/forget to mention Gosling's position as a 'gay rights activist' and that the person he had killed was (in any way) emotionally connected to Gosling? Did they feel that Gosling's own words, in the extract included from the 'Inside Out' broadcast, were sufficient to make the context clear?
2) was it even relevant for the national news to mention Gosling's position as a gay rights activist, or that there was some emotional connection to the person who was 'killed' by Gosling?
3) why any change from 'lover' to 'friend'? (so euphemistic!)
I'm not passing judgment on Gosling, or his actions, but the editorial choices of language in this current news cycle have been fascinating to track.

January – Rewards
For those who feel as if life has been difficult recently or feel overworked – take heart – it looks set to improve. Not only do you deserve this but beautiful karma decides to lend a helping hand so enjoy everything coming your way. Are you satisfied with your lot? If not don't keep doing the same things, change it up, bring in new energy. If your mind is doing overtime and you're allowing fear & anxiety in, take a break – again it is deserved. Don't allow your emotions to boil over – the tide is turning in your favour.
February – Look after yourself
Something may come back to bite that you thought you'd put to bed a long time ago. Make amends immediately, don't allow it to blow up or get any worse. Show a softer side, they're not expecting it. If you're hanging on to guilt about something either sort it or let it go. If you're not eating or sleeping properly how do you expect to get through the day? Start looking after yourself, you are important. This may be a tough month for some as you are asked to show unconditional love to everyone regardless of what others do to you.
March – Communicate properly
Put yourself on the back burner this month and support either a loved one or a colleague. You'll be amazed at what can come from it and how far they can go. Communication is key this month, say how you feel, be in control (and in the background) but above all be diplomatic – keep your emotions in check. If something feels or smells suspicious then be cautious, wait to see what happens. March births are naturally intuitive, follow this gift and it'll never let you down.
April – Is it worth the price you're paying?
Be careful of wading in and either getting your facts wrong or burning out too quickly. Someone may be exaggerating either what is on offer or the problem, they are not passing on the entire truth – whatever it is, it isn't built on solid ground. For those trying to make progress with something, it can happen but be careful, sometimes the price you are paying is too high. Are you developing feelings for someone? Something good can come from it – even if only friendship.
May – You are tough & strong
Have you felt as if you have to go out and work very hard for everything you have but others seem to be handed it on a plate? This month is no different, except rewards can come your way. Take on the challenges even if you feel boxed in or restricted – work out how to achieve and it could just happen. May births are often self-sacrificing and have a tougher time than most therefore they are tougher and stronger – always remember that.
June – Don't despair – life is changing
Read July monthly births too; they are closely linked If you're having a tough time, don't despair – its coming to an end – don't lose hope – even if you've made the mess. Be confident & bold and deal with whatever comes along. Happiness is on its way with new beginnings and a dose of good karma too. If you want to grow or expand in some way now is the time to think bigger than usual and look at all your options – even if it means changing direction. Don't be taken in by others opinions or ideas – do this yourself – be in control.
July – Make a wish
Read June monthly births too; they are closely linked Are you drinking too much, working too much or doing something to excess that could affect your health? Whatever it is, take yourself in hand and think of the consequences – it's called self-sabotage. Why do you doubt yourself? You have so much to offer to yourself and others – you just don't realise it. You don't need to prove anything to anyone. Try and relax a little this month, allow your mind to wander and enjoy the simple pleasures of life. Step out at night, look up to the Stars and make a wish – it could just come true.
August – Expect the unexpected
Many will have a difficult decision to make this month, when making it keep to the higher ground, otherwise your morals could be called into question. Don't stick to your usual tried and tested method of turning a blind eye – change. If you have a wandering eye – rein it in. Expect the unexpected and you can't go wrong. Having the ability to solve problems is actually a gift; use yours now to improve your life. August births aren't always in touch with their feelings, how about trying now?
September – Take part
Read November monthly births too; they are closely linked Sometimes standing back and watching others means you aren't taking part in life. You're always there for others, you offer security and stability and always say the right thing – what about you? Who do you talk to? Don't allow your mind to avoid issues or overwork so you're too exhausted to think. September births are natural born leaders and often worry about showing their feelings. You have a big heart so will always be ok.
October – Take your time
Keep your wits about you this month as a friend may show their true colours. If someone new has come into your life question their intentions – not all is as it seems. Now is the time to look ahead and explore what could possibly occur for you in the future. Make plans, look for obstacles, work around them and move forward. You are in the enviable position to have the just the right energy around you now, you also have the ability to feel in your gut what would work and what wouldn't – don't waste it.
November – Think
Read September monthly births too; they are closely linked If plans haven't worked out as you expected re-evaluate, reform them. Look at the mistakes you've made, acknowledge them and correct them – whatever you do don't give up – we learn by our mistakes. November births are often overly kind, giving and generous so at times can be their own worst enemy. Sometimes we don't expect love in return, especially if financially secure, just think of the long nights ahead if your love isn't reciprocated.
December – Sensitive
Ooh make sure you balance your books this month – allow spare just in case. If you feel you don't always walk into a room and are noticed – do your hair, fake the confidence and ooze charm – you'll be noticed. This month is about loving yourself and others. Don't allow your mind to focus on anyone you deem is criticising you or speaking about you behind your back – if they are, they are – you can't change it. In particular December births are extremely sensitive to what others think and feel about them so use this energy to help you not hinder you.

Understanding Negligence
The legal definition of negligence is the failure to give the same level of care that, under similar circumstances, a reasonable person would give themselves, and or have the ability to give. The actions of those found guilty of negligence are referred to as negligent actions.
Here is an example of an injury due to negligence:
A car company manufactures and installs brake pads on a vehicle they produce. Though the brake pads were designed and produced using state of the art technology and equipment and seemed to meet all legal safety requirements, employees knowingly failed to test the brake pads in order to meet production deadlines and to save on expenses accrued during the testing period. Once available on the market, a consumer purchases the vehicle and suffers a catastrophic accident due to do the brake pads not properly functioning. The car company is considered negligent, or responsible for this accident because they failed to test the brake pads before they sold them and knowingly sold a defective product. They had the ability to test them, the equipment, knowledge and understanding of how to test them, but in fact willingly failed to do so.
Duty of Proving Negligence
In a lawsuit where negligence is the leading factor for causing an accident or injury, it is a claimant's responsibility to prove that the defendant was negligent and did not exercise the same level of caution that a reasonable individual would have exercised and/or had the ability to exercise but chose not to.
Proof of Negligence
Proving negligence can be a difficult task. In some cases it can be one individual's word against another, making it very difficult for the court to accurately determine who is to blame. An example of this would be when two parties involved in an automotive accident claim that each other was to blame for the accident, but no witnesses or video documentation is available to prove blame in either person. This is where having an experienced attorney is an absolute necessity.
An experienced attorney will use every resource available to prove that the defendant is to blame for injuries caused as the result of an accident. Some of the resources that a good attorney will use are:
Expert Testimony – Attorneys may use the testimonial of a person who has expertise or significant knowledge on a particular subject or field. Their expert opinion may help in determining the cause of the accident and or who is to blame.
Eyewitness Testimony – If someone does not initially come forward and say that they witnessed the events leading to the cause of an accident or injury, an attorney will seek out potential eyewitnesses; interviewing people in close proximity to the accident or those who might have information about negligence (like an employee who was told by a co-worker that his department failed to check the brake pads on their newest model of car)
Public & Private Records – In some cases absolute proof of negligence can be found by official records: Timesheets showing that a the manager on duty, who acted as a witness on the side of the defendant, was in fact not working on the day that the incident occurred, and would not have been able to say whether or not negligent actions led to the death of an employee. Other records such as medical records, employment records, invoices, receipts of transaction, etc. can be used to prove negligence.
Photographic or Video Evidence – These will generally be used as a smoking gun, where they will prove without a doubt who was negligent, and even their degree of negligence.
Graphical Animation & Illustrations – Attorneys can use computer developed animation and illustrations to create visual representations of events that led to an accident. Though this type of evidence is not always absolute, it may give the courts or jurors an idea of what could have potentially happened and lead them to a conclusion.
Proximate Cause
The legal definition of proximate cause is an act causing an injury that was the result of a direct consequence and without its presence the injury would not have occurred. This can sometimes be difficult to prove but an experienced attorney will use all the resources necessary to prove without a doubt that injuries were caused as a result of negligent behavior and that compensation is not only deserved, but that is fair and just.
Take for example an auto accident where the responsible party not only injurers the other driver but also hits a mailbox which is projected in to the air and lands on a pedestrian causing massive brain damage. It seems easy enough to assume that any judge or jury would hold the negligent driver responsible for any injury caused to the pedestrian by the mailbox that their car sent flying through the air during the accident. But unfortunately that is not automatic proof of negligence or responsibility. The driver may have hit the mailbox as a result of their vehicle spinning out of control, which is not something that a reasonable person would have any control over. Another factor might be that the mailbox may have not been sufficiently secured to the pavement by the city worker who installed it, and the driver would have had no idea that the mailbox was not secure.
Issues like the one above are circumstances that must be overcome to prove negligence and responsibility for injuries and damages. An injury lawyer must prove without a doubt that injuries sustained were a direct result of an accident. This is another case where an experienced attorney is absolutely necessary to get appropriate compensation for victims of personal injury.

8 amazing flamingo facts
Discover fascinating facts about flamingos.
16th October 2014
1 The word 'flamingo' comes from the Spanish word 'flamenco' meaning fire, which refers to the bright pink or orange colour of the feathers.
2 There are six flamingo species, including the greater, Chilean, lesser, Caribbean, Andean and puna.
3 The bright colour of their feathers is caused by the presence of carotenoid pigments found in the algae and crustaceans that make up the diet of a flamingo. The inside of of a flamingo's egg, their skin and the crop milk adults feed their chicks for the first few days is also pink!
4 Little grey flamingo chicks hatch atop a mud nest constructed by the adults and take up to three years to attain their full mature plumage.
5 During a colony's breeding time, a high ranking individual will influence the rest of the flock to breed by changing its feather colour to a deeper pink, kick-starting the breeding rituals.
6 The pinkest birds have the highest status in the colony as the bright colour shows that a particular individual is strong and good at finding food resources.
7 Males and females perform a spectacular courtship dance to attract a mate. Once formed, flamingo pair bonds are mostly monogamous.
8 Flamingos can live a long time, some individuals have been recorded at 70 years of age.

Recently I was featured on the world famous Withings blog but I have been a fan of their health products for some time now. They were interested in how I find a healthy balance, between work and being a single mom, with a focus on my healthy lifestyle. I hope you enjoy this interview and a little peek into my daily life.
- - - - - -
Linda Pétursdóttir: Former Miss World Finds a Healthy Balance
Meet Linda Pétursdóttir, an Icelandic businesswoman who also happens to be former Miss World, a single mother, and a trained meditation practitioner and wellness guru. With an enviable ability to balance hard work with a healthy lifestyle, Pétursdóttir uses Withings products to help her stay on track and make the most of her time.
Linda Pétursdóttir, pictured, grew up in Húsavík and Vopnafjörður, small fishing villages in Iceland. In her senior year of high school, she flew across the world to Sandstone, Minnesota as an exchange student. Her experience in a foreign country sparked her love of travel, and informed her global worldview. At age 18, she won Miss World, and was able to travel once again as a fashion model and Miss World ambassador.
At the age of 24, Pétursdóttir founded her own company, which she owned and operated for over 20 years. She has since remained in the health, beauty, and wellness business for over 25 years. While she holds a degree in graphic design, last year she took a break from business to study for a second degree in health coaching.
Nowadays, she splits her time between Iceland and North America and spends her free time meditating and relaxing in India. As a single mom, she lives with her 10-year-old daughter, Isabella, and their dog, Celebrity.
Pétursdóttir wears many hats, as businesswoman, mother, animal welfare advocate, graphic designer, meditator, and health coach. Read on to find out how she stays healthy or mind and body, with the help of Withings products, while pursuing her many passions.

The 2016 Budget announcement contained a proposal for a non-refundable tax offset to superannuation funds, to reduce the tax paid on concessional contributions which are made for or by low income earners.
"Low income" refers to an adjusted taxable income of $37,000 or less.
The offset is available from 1 July 2017 for 2017-18 and later years.
The offset operates in a similar manner to the "LISC" scheme which was available from 1 July 2012 to 30 June 2017.
LISTO is a rebate to the super fund account of the low income member at the rate of 15% of eligible contributions, thus matching the tax on contributions, and up to a ceiling of $500. A minimum of $10 (low amounts rounded up to $10) is payable.
The rebate is paid to the super fund of the low-income taxpayer claimant.
Source: ATO
Legislation was passed (in Nov 2016) by parliament to provide a rebate of up to $500 (credited to their super fund) for low income earners with an adjusted taxable income of $37,000 or less.
The rebate applies from 1 July 2017.
The amount of the rebate is calculated as 15% of eligible super contributions, which are essentially contributions made to an approved (i.e. "eligible") super fund.
The necessary conditions are:
- at least one concessional contribution has been made by or for that individual in the corresponding financial year; and
- adjusted taxable income for that income year that does not exceed $37,000
- at least 10% of the individual's income for the income year is from business or employment (or where in limited circumstances the Commissioner estimates that to be the case)
- the individual's Total Superannuation Balance must be below the Transfer Balance Cap (currently $1.6 million).
- temporary visa holders (except NZ citizens) are excluded
Unlike the co-contribution requirements, there is no age limit on eligibility.

Baring Falls is an impressive falls just up from the shore of Upper St. Mary Lake. There are 2 main ways to get to the falls in Glacier National Park. There's a short .3 miles hike down from the Going to the Sun Road at the Sunrift Gorge trailhead.
The other route is a .1 mile walk from the primitive boat dock. To take the second route, you'll have to take the boat tour on Upper St. Mary Lake. The boat docks at the primitive dock for 20-30 minutes giving you plenty of time to walk to the falls. If you take the right boat tour, you can also take a ranger guided hike and head past Baring falls to St. Mary's falls. This hike is 1.5 miles one way with very little elevation gain.

Bike maintenance
Keep your bicycle working by following this simple maintenance checklist. Visit the Bike Hub on campus or one of Flagstaff's many bicycle shops for further assistance.
Maintenance checklist
- Saddle: With the ball of the foot on the pedal while it is in the lowest position, adjust the seat height so that your legs bend only slightly. Tighten the seat securely.
- Brakes: Your brake(s) must be able to come to a complete stop on dry, level, or clean pavement.
- Handlebars: Handlebar grips should be below your shoulders to allow safe maneuverability and control of your bicycle.
- Pedals: Keep them greased. Make sure they have reflectors.
- Wheels and spokes: Keep wheels tight and replace broken spokes promptly. When in doubt, take it to an expert.
- Chain: Lubricate your chain often with a dry lube, especially after it rains or snows.

text: The Bishops of the United States prescribe, as minimal obligation, that all persons who are fourteen years of age and older are bound to abstain from meat on Ash Wednesday, Good Friday and on all Fridays of Lent. Further, all persons eighteen years of age and older, up to and including their 59th birthday, are bound to fast by limiting themselves to one full meal on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, while the other two meals on those days are light. All the faithful are encouraged to participate at Mass and to receive the Holy Eucharist daily, to celebrate frequently the Sacrament of Penance, to undertake spiritual reading, especially the study of the Sacred Scriptures, and to participate in parish Lenten devotions as well as Lenten Education Programs.

Soon after her diagnosis of advanced multiple sclerosis, Lisa Sheehan realised this illness was going to challenge her mentally just as much as it was going to physically.
As her condition developed and began preventing her caring for her beautiful granddaughter, she found it almost impossible to recognise the depressed and lonely person she had been transformed into.
Her life had changed forever, and she was desperate to meet other people with multiple sclerosis to support and to help share the weight of the difficult path that lay ahead. But it distressed her to find out her nearest peer support group was over 80 kilometres away from home.
Fortunately Multiple Sclerosis Limited was able to provide Lisa with the training and ongoing support she needed to facilitate an MS Peer Support group in her area. These days, she has all the support and understanding she needs to see her through both the good days and the bad, and she is a much happier person as a result.
Our hope is that with your donation this Christmas, we'll be able to provide the same help for many more people like Lisa who are still suffering alone.
Please donate a gift and help us raise $254,611 as soon as possible, so that we can launch new vital MS Peer Support groups across Australia in communities who desperately need our help, like Lisa's.
Help save people suffering from multiple sclerosis from terrible loneliness.
You can enable those with multiple sclerosis to connect and talk with others locally and across Australia who share similar experiences. These services are available in face-to-face groups, online and via the phone.
Help provide a support network for the carers and family members.
You can provide support and information for carers and family members of those with multiple sclerosis, putting them in touch with other carers locally and across Australia to build a strong support network.
Help empower people with multiple sclerosis to train as peer group facilitators.
You can provide training to people with multiple sclerosis who wish to start a peer support group in their area, to help bring comfort and support to hundreds more people this Christmas.

Today, Cooper Tire & Rubber Company celebrates 25 years of business in Tupelo/Lee County, MS. The plant was dedicated on September 19, 1985.
"This is a very special occasion for Cooper Tire. We couldn't be more proud of our employees, both past and present, here in Tupelo," said plant manager Pat Jodon. "We hope that the Tupelo community, Lee County, and the state of Mississippi all share in this celebration, as their support over the years has been an integral part of our success. Quality tires made by quality people is a mantra that the Tupelo Plant believes strongly in, and we recognize that the achievement of this goal is not possible without the tremendous workforce we are blessed with, or the tremendous support we receive."
Cooper Tire & Rubber Company took occupancy of the former Penn Tire building in 1984, purchasing the 635,000 square foot facility on Green Street. In 2010, the industrial plant measures over two million square feet and employs more than 1,300 people. In September 2009, Cooper Tire & Rubber Company began its 17th expansion to the Green Street facility, which included a 32,000 square foot addition to add a new mixing building to the southwest corner of the facility. The result of this expansion will be 100 new jobs for the facility.
"We congratulate this special company on 25 years of business in Lee County," said Darrell Rankin, president, Lee County Board of Supervisors. "Cooper Tire & Rubber Company continues to put its trust in the people of Lee County through job creation and capital investment, and for that, we are grateful."
"Cooper Tire & Rubber Company has been an exemplary corporate citizen to our community for the past 25 years," said Tupelo Mayor Jack Reed, Jr. "We celebrate this milestone with them today and look forward to many more prosperous years for this company."

16.2hh, 9years. Exceptional mare, fantastic temperament. Her conformation and movement is faultless, beautiful head & neck, very modern type, very good limbs, lots of scope over a jump. To ride she is laid back and really wants to please, good flat work, lateral work, etc, easy to jump, good to do in ALL ways. I think she would make a superb broodmare & would be an asset to any stud, I would breed off her myself but I do not have the right facilities for a first time mom, I am not suggesting her being used as a broodmare due to any fault in her ridden work and she is completely fit, sound and currently competing at riding club level but only as she would be fantastic for British breeding. On her mother line we find the exceptional mare Hyazinthe owned by Wieke van de Laegeweg, it has been said "Hyazinthe was another good mare, an own daughter of Ladykiller xx, she is the sort of mare that breeders dream about." I would consider p/ex or swap for youngster. £4500

Five Notable Releases of the Week (3/31)
It's been another exciting week in the music world: the first new Broken Social Scene song in 7 years! An absolutely killer Kendrick Lamar song! A bunch of new LCD Soundsystem shows (that were tough to get tickets for). Hopefully we'll be talking about new albums by those artists soon. Meanwhile, let's get to the stuff that's out this week.
A few honorable mentions: Mastodon, Bob Dylan, Wire, Goldfrapp, and the Julia Holter live album.
Check out my five picks below. What was your favorite release of the week?
Aimee Mann is one of those underdog success stories, an artist who abandoned the major label world, started releasing music on her own label, and has managed to stay creative and relevant for decades. None of this is news, but the career moves she's been making recently have made her even more appealing — especially to indie rock fans. She got James Mercer of the Shins to sing a duet with her on her last album, 2012's Charmer, and she then formed a collaborative band with Ted Leo, The Both. Now she's back with Charmer's followup, Mental Illness, which Ted Leo contributed to (as did The Long Winters' John Roderick, Jonathan Coulton, and others). Aimee's been describing the album as her "saddest, slowest" one yet. For people who like to hear artists get sadder and slower (guilty), Mental Illness is some of Aimee's most appealing work. The album is heavy on acoustic guitars, weeping strings, and the title is representative of the lyrical content. Aimee told Salon that two or three songs are about a friend of a friend with bipolar disorder, and others are about "depressed people or anxious people or people doing the same things over and over [who are] stuck in patterns that they can't get out of." Sad, folky music never really goes out of style, but Mental Illness feels even more in the now thanks to current indie successes like Julien Baker and Angel Olsen. Most artists can only hope to make music this vital over 30 years into a musical career. That Aimee Mann manages to sound so natural while doing it is even more impressive.
Maine's Falls of Rauros have been staples of US post-black metal for over a decade now, and they sound grander and more majestic than ever on Vigilance Perennial, their first full length in three years. "Black Metal and Folk sharing musical space" is how the band describe themselves in their bio. On Vigilance Perennial, that's accurate, but it doesn't tell the whole story. They still channel black metal's rawness and they have enough acoustic-guitar parts that qualify as folk music, but those are just two parts of a much larger whole. Their melodic, towering riffs are often closer to epic doom metal than to traditional black metal. They'll throw in solos that are heroic enough for a classic rock band. Then when Falls of Rauros aren't screaming, Vigilance Perennial can genuinely sound like post-rock or slowcore — the short instrumental track "Warm Quiet Centuries of Rains" could pass for a new This Will Destroy You song if you didn't know any better. These sounds come together seamlessly on Vigilance and Falls of Rauros never stick to just one side of their sound for too long. Other than the vocals, it's almost unfair to call the album "black metal." It's far too diverse to fit into that subgenre's often-strictly-defined box.
Passion Pit first won everyone over with an EP that — as legend has it — main member Michael Angelakos made as a self-recorded gift for his girlfriend at the time, and never planned on releasing. Then came the highly successful debut album Manners, the even better (and lyrically heartbreaking) Gossamer, and then the lukewarmly-received Kindred. For Kindred's followup, Tremendous Sea of Love, Michael sorta brought things back to the way it all began. It doesn't appear to have anything to do with his contract with Columbia Records — he gave it away for free to fans who retweeted his support for neuroscientist Michael F. Wells, a scientist who recently teamed up with Passion Pit to discuss mental illness on Twitter. He also recorded the songs himself quickly, and without much editing. This is a guy who's headlined Madison Square Garden, and his new album is essentially a full-length demo. It's an unexpected (and pretty cool) turn, and Tremendous Sea of Love is a noticeably superior album to Kindred. It's still bright and poppy, but it feels very diary-like and it's some of the least accessible music Passion Pit has ever made. (There's a song called "Inner Dialogue," which would've been a good name for the album too.) Like the debut EP, it feels like it's for one person, not for the world. Only this time, that person is Michael himself.
Tremendous Sea of Love isn't streaming anywhere but you can get it for a retweet.
Even at the height of her stardom, Nelly Furtado has been a little more on the "alternative" side than many of her pop peers. Her 2000 debut had a little '90s trip-hop creeping into it, and her 2006 R&B-leaning, career-reinventing Loose saw her working with Timbaland, whose production was always one step ahead of the game. It's been a while since Nelly's had a hit, but she's been using her time out of the spotlight to embrace that "alternative" side more than ever. A couple of years ago, she took part in a unique David Byrne concert that otherwise featured indie acts such as St Vincent, Blood Orange, Zola Jesus, and tUnE-yArDs. Last year, she contributed a show-stopping lead vocal performance to the Blood Orange album. Now she's finally back with her own album, The Ride, and she made it with the great indie rock producer John Congleton (who's worked with Angel Olsen, St. Vincent, Swans, and many more).
It's a good time for Nelly to make a move like this. Early 2000s alt-pop peers Kelis, Michelle Branch, and Vanessa Carlton have been doing similar things, and pop and indie have been crossing paths a lot lately. This is a time where James Blake plays on a Beyonce album and Rihanna has a popular Tame Impala cover. There's arguably never been a better time in Nelly's career for her to go full indie than right now. The results are intriguing, but admittedly fall a bit flat. The album fits in nicely with some of today's alt-pop acts — most of these songs would sound good on a playlist next to Florence, Lorde, Haim, or Lana, and "Sticks and Stones" reminds me a lot of the less popular Alex Winston — but none of the songs hit as hard as her actual hits. (They also don't hit as hard as her Blood Orange collaboration "Hadron Collider," which is probably her best song since "Promiscuous." If Dev Hynes produces her next album, she may be onto something…) It's hard not to root for Nelly Furtado, and if you are (an indie rock fan who is) rooting for her, it feels pretty triumphant that she took her career in this direction. If she can find a middle ground between her indie-minded creative freedom, and the addictiveness of her prime era, she might once again be unstoppable.
Margaret Chardiet has been busy lately. She put out an album with her no-frills punk band Cheena a few months back, she scored a movie (that premiered at Cannes and played at SXSW), and now she's got a new album with her art-noise project Pharmakon. Contact follows her breakthrough 2013 album Abandon and Abandon's equally great 2014 followup, Bestial Burden. It's not super different from those two albums — she's still making noise music that's highly confrontational yet strangely addictive — but you can certainly hear a progression here. She seems to be dishing out even more of the gut-wrenching screams this time, and focusing less on the more delicate parts. Pharmakon was always abrasive, but Contact is her most abrasive work yet.
