Default paste options for formatting
GLikethecar posted an idea in General Feature RequestsI would really love to be able to go into the options panel and set the default paste to exclude all formatting. Evernote is a good lightweight word processor, but I strongly prefer all of my notes to be uniform in style. I find it makes it a lot easier to navigate my notes across all platforms. Really, the only formatting stuff I use is occasionally bold or italics. Any time I paste stuff from another program it's a pain having to fix the formatting so I can navigate around it easily. As far as I can tell, there's currently no way to accomplish this.
Hi, I selected the whole text of one of my Evernote notes then copied and tried to paste it in my web blog (Wordpress). However, although I have tried several paste options (ie. paste as text, unformatted text, clear formatting, etc.), Evernote margins seem to have transferred along with the document, causing unreasonable hyphenations at the line ends and formatting errors on the document. I have tried to paste my selection to text editor and Word as well, and got exactly the same errors. Does anyone know why is this happening? I will have to quit using Evernote to keep my notes if I can not fix this problem. It was not happening before btw. Thanks.
Ability to Copy From Evernote to Powerpoint
dnotes posted a topic in General Discussion ArchiveIt is astounding to me that in order to copy text from Evernote to Powerpoint and maintain the formatting I first have to copy and paste into word, and only then can I copy and paste into powerpoint. Given the new emphasis on Evernote Business, one hopes this failing will quickly be overcome. Anyone have an update on this?
windows (Archived) Color problems when pasting to Evernote
lanjog posted a topic in Windows ArchiveI've been using EN quite a while. Sometimes it drives me crazy, please help resolve the problem. Issue: when I'm copying formatted and colored text from any html page or from Word, Visual Studio to Evernote, sometimes Evernote pasting the text and it has all original colors in it, sometimes I just can't do it. For example: today I've copied some code from Visual Studio to Evernote and I got perfect colors: Then I thought: "Hm... what if I choose red color for text in Evernote (Button "A"), write something and then try to paste THE SAME text from Visual Studio." Since then when pasting there are no colors. I've tried making new note, choose different color in this "A" color button, reopen Evernote. Nothing helps! The text is just plain black after pasting. Doesn't matter what settings, what text Tried CTRL + Space(Simplify Formatting) - won't do. So the question is: I just want the colors when pasting text to Evernote. I know Evernote copies not only text, but its formatting too (from browser for example), but sometimes it just won't work and I can't do anything. What should I do? Please reply. Evernote version 22.214.171.12497 (235205) Public. XP SP3.
chrome (Archived) Newbie question
Miyania posted a topic in Web ClipperHi all I'm new to using Evernote and so far, I'm absolutely thrilled about the program It's really helped me organize a lot better. The only thing that rattles my newfound love for the program is that I don't know how to get around the webclipper. Ex. I'm copying a single word from a page with CTRL + C and then when I try to paste it in to Google with CTRL + V, it instead makes a new note in Evernote. We're both using Mozilla and Chrome at home here, and I really can't figure out how I stop it from doing that? Is there anyone who can give me a quick explanation? pref in a VERY simple language Thank you in advance

Crowds attack journalists as tensions heighten in buildup to Peru's presidential vote
A group of nearly 100 individuals attacked a car driven by journalist Jaime Althaus, who works for the El Comercio-owned Canal N TV, Peru.com reports.
The May 6 attack was repudiated by presidential candidates Ollanta Humala and Keiko Fujimori, as well as by journalism unions.
El Comercio, which is said to support Fujimori, reports that the mob surrounded the car and hit and shook it, while yelling that his station had "sold" its editorial line.
In similar incident against the press, Peru.com says that journalists from Radio Programas del Perú (RPP) were intercepted by a mob that surrounded their car and chanted: "Yellow press, report the truth!"
The Lima-based Press and Society Institute (IPYS) says the attackers were party loyalists of the "Gana Perú" alliance, which supports Ollanta
In this increasingly tense climate, five journalists have reportedly been fired or resigned due to pressure to favor Fujimori. The first round of voting took place April 10, and the runoff between Humala and Fujimori is scheduled for June 5.

Killing vs Murder
By: Steve Shirley
Have you ever asked, "Why does the 6th commandment state 'thou shalt not kill,' but then God kills, or orders the killing of thousands?" This seems like a contradiction, doesn't it? In truth, there is no contradiction, but rather, a failure to understand that there is a difference between the words "kill" and "murder." If you look in Webster's Dictionary, you find this definition for "murder" - "To kill (a human being) unlawfully and with premeditated malice." For "kill," the definition is simply "To deprive of life (or) to slaughter (as a hog) for food." These phrases that I saw on the Answers In Genesis website are also important: "All murder is killing, but not all killing is murder," and "Murder is the unlawful taking of a life, while killing may be lawful or unlawful."
We can kill anything that lives: a bug, an animal, or a plant, but this is not "murder." We can also kill a person, but this is not necessarily "murder" either. Killing becomes "murder" when a person "unlawfully" takes a life, when it is done with "premeditated malice." We can also "murder" when we take innocent life. This is why abortion is murder.
Now, let's go to the Bible. When you look at the Hebrew word for "kill" in the 6th Commandment in (Ex 20:13)(Deut 5:17), the word "ratsach" is used. This word is 47 times in the Old Testament, and it is one of many Hebrew words used for "kill" in the Old Testament. However, when you look at the times "ratsach" is used, it is almost always used for unintentional killing, and not "murder." For example, many times it is used in speaking about "Cities of Refuge." In short, these were 6 cities that God ordered the Israelites to set up so that a person could flee there for safety if they unintentionally killed a person. (I explain this in detail here.)
However, ratsach is also used in some places for premeditated murder, or the taking of innocent life. For example:
(Judg 20:4)(NASB) So the Levite, the husband of the woman who was murdered (ratsach), answered and said, "I came with my concubine to spend the night at Gibeah which belongs to Benjamin.
(Job 24:14) The murderer (ratsach) rising with the light killeth the poor and needy, and in the night is as a thief.
(Jer 7:9-10) Will ye steal, murder (ratsach), and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye know not; (10) And come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered to do all these abominations?
(Also see: 2 Kin 6:32, Ps 94:6, Isa 1:21, Hos 6:9)
So, "ratsach" is used for both unintentional killing AND for murder in the Old Testament. However, in the 10 Commandments "ratsach" is clearly speaking of "murder."
The primary way we can know this is by looking at the New Testament. In the New Testament, the 6th Commandment is repeated 6 times (Mt 5:21)(Mt 19:18)(Mk 10:19)(Lk 18:20)(Rom 13:9)(Jas 2:11). In each instance, the Greek word "phoneuo" is used. The definition for "phoneuo" is "to be a murderer." This is VERY helpful in clearing things up. "Phoneuo" is used only 12 times in the New Testament, with 8 of these uses being in verses repeating the 10 Commandments. This being the case, we can clearly see that the authors of the New Testament saw the 6th Commandment as pointing to "murder," rather than "killing." The 4 other verses in the New Testament that use "phoneuo" also point to murder (Mt 23:31,35)(Jas 4:2)(Jas 5:6).
We can also see in the Old Testament that God made a clear distinction between killing and murdering in the punishments that were to be administered to those who did each. If a person murdered another person, they were to forfeit their own life. However, for those who killed unintentionally, there were other punishments. For example, let's look at the Cities of Refuge again.
(Num 35:15) These six cities shall be a refuge, both for the children of Israel, and for the stranger, and for the sojourner among them: that every one that killeth any person unawares may flee thither.
Here, we see unintentional killing. However, notice what the following verses say in (Num 35:16-21).
(Num 35:16) And if he smite him with an instrument of iron, so that he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
(Num 35:17) And if he smite him with throwing a stone, wherewith he may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death."
(Num 35:18) Or if he smite him with an hand weapon of wood, wherewith he may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
(Num 35:20) But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die; (21) Or in enmity smite him with his hand, that he die: he that smote him shall surely be put to death; for he is a murderer:...
These 4 verses show examples where God considered a person to be a murderer. In these instances, that person was to be put to death. However, in verses 22-25, God says this:
(Num 35:22-25) But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait, (23) Or with any stone, wherewith a man may die, seeing him not, and cast it upon him, that he die, and was not his enemy, neither sought his harm: (24) Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments: (25) And the congregation shall deliver the slayer out of the hand of the revenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to the city of his refuge, whither he was fled: and he shall abide in it unto the death of the high priest, which was anointed with the holy oil.
In these verses, God gives a few examples of unintentional killing. Notice, that even though one man killed another, it is not called "murder," nor is the person who killed to be put to death. He was sent to the City of Refuge, where he was to stay until the "death of the High Priest." (Also see: Deut 19:4-7,11-13, Josh 20:3-5, Deut 4:41-42)
It should also be noted that God made a distinction between murder and self-defense (Ex 22:2)(Neh 4:11-14)(Lk 22:36).
So, we have established that there IS a difference between killing and murdering, but how does this answer our question about "God killing, or ordering the killing of thousands?" Remember the primary things in our definition of "murder," (1) unlawfully taking a life, (2) done with premeditated malice, (3) taking innocent life. None of these applies to God when He took life in the Bible. When God took a life, or lives, the people were evil, had broken God's laws (God is the law-giver), and were not innocent. In addition, He did not take a life out of malice, but justice (God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked: Ezek 33:11, Ezek 18:23,32). We see this over and over throughout the Bible. God giving reasons, then taking life.
(Gen 6:5-8) "And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. (6) And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. (7) And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. (8) But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord." Then, God destroyed the Earth in a flood.
(Num 4:15) God warned the sons of Kohath not to "touch any holy thing, lest they die." Uzzah touched the Ark of the Covenant, and God "struck him down" (2 Sam 6:6-7).
(Lev 10:1-3) Nadab and Abihu broke God's rules for offering incense, and God killed them.
(Num 16:41-50) The Israelites failed to trust in the Lord, so God sent a plague that killed 14,700 of them.
(Acts 5:1-11) Ananias and Sapphira lied to the Holy Spirit, and God took their lives.
(Acts 12:21-23) Herod did not give glory to God, and an angel of the Lord struck him so that he was eaten by worms and died.
For other examples, see: (Gen 38:6-10)(Gen 19:17,26)(Num 16:1-40)(Deut 20:16-18)(Deut 9:1-6)
Again, notice that none of these who God killed were "innocent," nor was it "unlawful" for God to take their lives.
However, what is HARDEST to understand is when God took the life of an infant, or ordered it to be done. Surely, they are innocent, right? I believe this is where we need to turn to God's omniscience. In God's all-knowing ability, He knows what we will ALL become in the future. This includes infants. He knows who will turn to Him (foreknowledge - 1 Pet 1:2, Rom 8:29, 2 Th 2:13-14), and who will not. Therefore, if He knows that whole cultures will not turn to Him (including infants when they grow up), then they are "guilty" and "not innocent." If you don't believe whole cultures could be evil, take a look at when God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, and how He said He would not destroy them if even 10 "righteous" people could be found (this included Lot's family) (Gen 18:18-33). Also, keep in mind what we said above, that God destroyed everyone on Earth in the flood, except for Noah and his family, because all of the Earth was "wicked."
Finally, let me close by saying that today God has granted government the right to punish those who break the law (Rom 13:1-4)(1 Pet 2:13-14)(Acts 25:11). The have the right to punish those who murder (the death penalty, which I speak of here), commit manslaughter (unintentional killing), or any other crime. We are told to submit to our government and its authority. In addition, the military also has the right to carry out justice (killing) when ordered to do so by the government.
So, when you read or hear the 6th Commandment, realize that the proper translation should be "thou shalt not murder," not "thou shalt not kill."

Rachel has accepted Chris's marriage proposal. She insists that she just wants a quiet wedding with Jack and Sarah as witnesses. The Dingles are receiving mail now that they are officially known as Wishing Well Cottage. They get a letter from the tourist board and Sam receives a notification from the Readers' Digest that he could be a winner. Butch has stolen a chicken from the Glovers. Roy has got a hangover and Ned makes him eat a fried breakfast. Linda storms out when Jan makes a thoughtless remark about how having Alice round makes a lovely change after teenagers. Scott and Kelly also have hangovers. Terry sympathises with them as there is nothing for young people to do in Emmerdale. He suggests starting up a youth club. Vic immediately thinks of the possibilities of selling pop and crisps. Zak is pleased with the response from the tourist board. He takes it as a compliment that the inspector has written rather sarcastically "my visit to Wishing Well Cottage will live with me for many years...we do not have a category adequate to classify your home". Only Tina seems to realise the true meaning of her words - they have been rejected. Frank despairs about his relationship with Chris. Kim promise to keep her eye on Alice. Sarah is sorting out the village nativity play. She wants Jack to play a rich landowner. Rachel calls round and tells them about her marriage plans. She asks them to keep it all a secret. Frank tries to talk to Chris again. He wants them to be friends again. Frank warns him that Rachel won't stick around forever as she has already turned down his marriage proposal. Chris is rather smug knowing that Frank does not realise they are tying the knot soon. Dave visits Nick in hospital. Nick is not pleased to see him and tells him to get lost. Jan tells Alan that she is going to ask Dave to have a word with Roy as he looks up to his elder brother. She is rather puzzled when Alan replies "let's hope he is worthy of such adulation". Eric tries to tell Sam that the Dingles have obviously been rejected by the tourist board. Sam tells him that Nellie has framed their letter so that visitors can read it. There is an awkward moment when Jan talks to Caroline about Kathy and Dave's wedding. Dave is trying to tell Nick that he can have his job back and move into the flat again at Home Farm. Nick panics and pleads with Dave not to let Kim anywhere near Alice. He tells Dave that she has threatened to kill Alice if he says anything about the affair. Dave doesn't want to believe him. Dave finds Kim in the stables. He tells her what Nick is saying about her threatening to hurt Alice. She claims that he is making it up. She insists that she could never hurt a little girl and tells Dave that it is so important that he believes her. Rachel has been organising the wedding. Chris wants to do it as soon as possible. They decide on next Thursday. Two campers appear in the shop. They tell Vic and Viv that they are on a working holiday researching local customs for their historical societ. Vic tells them that the only local custom he knows anything about is supping. Caroline cannot believe that Kathy is still being so understanding towards Dave. Terry tries his wit and comic routine on the tourists, but regrets it when it seems to go over their heads. The Windsor children are all grounded. Seth has the tourists enraptured by his tales of blood sacrifices and interbreeding in the local community. He refers to them as doylems. Eric and Vic join in as well. When they enquire about a local bed and breakfast where they might know some unusual customs, Terry has no hesitation in recommending Wishing Well Cottage "they'll give you lots to talk to your historical society about". At that moment Zak is threatening Sam if he doesn't find and kill the chicken they stole from the Glovers. Frank suggests to Kim that they hold a party at Home Farm. He is surprised when she agrees. Viv asks Terry if he would help her organise a disco for the village youngsters. He agrees. Betty asks Eric to provide some props for the nativity play. When he refuses, she reminds him that he is storing his antiques for free and she threatens to phone the authorities. Mr and Mrs Hislop arrive at Wishing Well Cottage to find Sam brandishing a bloody meat cleaver. Dave asks Caroline to have a word with Nick about moving back to Home Farm. She won't interfere. Nellie makes a fuss of the Hislops. They look petrified when Butch calls Sam a doylem and they row over the meat cleaver and the killing of the chicken.

Rewarding small businesses can rapidly fail if they lack cash. Likewise, unprofitable unprof small companies can be survived for a very long time if they have a decent cash balance. In other words, cash is the life blood of American small companies.
Small Business Loans in Sanford, Colorado
Naturally, when times are difficult, inability to obtain capital to pay day-to-day operating expenses often ends up being a source of worry, stress and anxiety and distraction for small business owners.
In these cases, lots of small company owners think about seeking short term financing.
Small Business Loans in Sanford, Colorado
Regrettably, the majority of huge city and village conventional lending institutions have stiff and strict requirements that their customers must fulfill.
Because of this, there is four specific functions that are required by those seeking service funding.
Easy credit approval:
Organisations have a different credit score from business owner. Even if the business owner has a high credit history, business may not have a recognized credit rating (especially if freshly developed). Therefore, prospective lenders have to provide services with that take business owner's personal credit into factor to consider which accepts applicants with less than best credit.
Fast Financing Time:
Usually, when a company is seeking out a loan, they have operating costs that they have to have the ability to pay within the next 7-14 days (such as payroll and providers). As such, loans that take weeks to be authorized and financial resources just aren't suitable to the majority of businesses requirements
No Red Tape:
Lots of conventional lending institutions needs months of bank statements and years of tax returns to be able to process a loan application. While this might not be a big deal to a well-established organisation, it's not extremely practical for a brand-new service that has actually beened around for six months to a year
Small Company Friendly:
Oftentimes, brick and mortar loan providers just service organisations doing 20k or more in regular monthly revenue. This disqualifies smaller sized companies doing 10k-15k in regular monthly income.
Because of the stringent previously mentioned credentials criteria imposed by conventional lenders, more and more business owners are turning to the myriad of online financing options now offered to small business owners in Sanford, Colorado

Buckwheat, Not Wheat
Gage's new adventure for the week is buckwheat. You have no idea how excited he is.
Buckwheat isn't actually related to wheat at all. It's actually in the rhubarb family. Even though Gage wants to eat wheat while on the steroid I just don't feel like it's a good idea. So we'll give buckwheat a try for a while.
We found cereal, noodles, crackers and groats at the health food store. He is loving it all and is so stoked.
Last week we started a trial on VeganEgg. It's an eggless substitute for egg made of algae. It stinks like sulfur yet is amazingly egg like. He can actually have scrambled eggs. How awesome, yet strange, is that to see him eating an "egg"? Gage has a very anaphylactic allergy to eggs, this picture is so surreal. I think VeganEgg is going to be a big changer for him. It will really help in our baking once we get some more ingredients added into his diet. I need to strategically plan it out though.
I've tried making him oatmeal cookies. They're pretty basic, but I've failed. Not once but twice on appearance. It's so frustrating. He loved them though. Probably because it's a "cookie". He didn't love the second batch as much as the first batch. That happens. I think we need a better flour. I need to get my hands on some buckwheat flour and see how it does. Anyone got a good oatmeal cookie recipe using: oats, oat flour, sugar, veganegg, tapioca starch, enjoy life chocolate chips, cinnamon, brown sugar and baking soda?
Here though, is why I cringe at the thought of Gage and Tinleigh eating. We're back to the crazy high grocery bills at the specialty food store. It's totally worth it though to just see them eating and smiling. Eighteen items at $75? Plus the$110 I just spent on amazon pantry for them. These will last them a week tops. Phew, mommy better log some more hours for work!

Layton's Joining
Layton seems to be taking a different route to the allergy world than the other 3 did. She was on neocate as an infant, after that though, we've fed her normally.
I've always fought her to eat. She hates eating. It's definitely her least favorite thing to do. Unless it's dum dum suckers.
Tonight I fed her toasted cheese filled ravioli and spaghetti sauce with mushrooms. About 4 bites in she said no more sauce. She then gobbled the rest right down. It made her gunky and stuffy. Was it too much dairy? Was it the egg in the ravioli? Was it the tomato sauce?
Layton is still covered in these tiny little bumps. It's eczema. I've started giving her daily allergy meds and slathering her in Eucerin cream. It's still spreading though. She's even started waking up with welts. Very itchy little welts. As of today she has 2 on her belly, one on her hip and more on her thighs.
I just look at the eczema and welts but I haven't said it out loud yet. I think I'm waiting on the allergy testing and scope in April. I'm just not ready for one more. It's already too hard. Maybe the timing of giving Gage and Tinleigh a trial break is just what I needed to be able to get Layton figured out? We'll see. I'm praying maybe it's all environmental at best. If she really is joining the crowd hopefully she's more like Charlie and not part of the "rarer club".
I will say, as insane as this life we live is, things always fall right into place for me. I guess it's time for Layton.
Tinleigh's Complicated
In December the decision was made to remove Tinleigh's 3 safe foods and scope her to make sure she's clear when only on the formula. Turns out, she wasn't clear. In fact, she was worse with no foods than she was at her last scope. Her previous scope with her 3 foods was zero in her mid and 20 in her lower esophagus. This scope she was 7 in her mid and 30 in her lower.
We know it's not reflux. Her numbers were even lower when she trialed watermelon 6 months ago. Then they spiked up, then back down and now up again.
Our GI spoke with other doctors and aside from saying "good luck with that one" we are now wondering if Tinleigh is an even rarer bird. Is rarer a word? Tinleigh's been having airborne reactions. Could those be part of this problem? What if it's environmental allergies causing her eosinophil counts to stay high? We can't put her in a bubble.
Our game plan is to test Tinleigh's environmental allergies and see where that gets us. She's only ever tested positive to a few environmental things but that was in New York. She hasn't had those tested since moving here. Is Tinleigh allergic to our new state? Wouldn't that be just awesome, did you catch the sarcasm there. Will our doctor prescribe a new state for us?
Before we dive into trying to figure out Tinleigh though we're going to give Tinleigh the same break we're giving Gage. Tinleigh is going on the same swallowed steroid twice a day. Each week we'll let her have one need food. As long as she's not showing symptoms we'll keep going. She'll be scoped around the end of April to make sure her dosage amount works for her. She will get to do this for a year or two. Then we'll go back to figuring her out. So far she's had squash and all of it's varieties. This week we're working on potatoes. She will tell you French fries are amazing.
I'm really going to enjoy this time with her of letting her eat. It's almost like introducing food to a baby for the first time, except, it's a very expressive talkative baby that has a million things to say about the food.
The Letter
I've been debating on if I should share this letter or not. It's the one I sent to the school.
I've decided that I should share it.
Hopefully it can help someone else.
Holidays are such a fun time for kids. As parents, we want to make them the best memories our kids have.
Imagine though being in your child's shoes for a day. You're at a party in your classroom, which you consider safe, and then something appears that could kill you in a matter of minutes. Your little head races as you try to figure out what you should do. You're questioning why this is happening because you were told you would be in a safe room. It's a party for your whole class and you're being singled out, even possibly killed. Thank goodness, your mom is there to save you and remove you from harm.
I am not over exaggerating when I use the word kill. As harsh as it sounds it's the God's honest truth. I am referencing the peanuts being in the classroom during the Valentines party. There is a sign on the classroom door that says the room is peanut free zone. There were also letters sent home with in the first weeks of school explaining there is a child in the room with severe peanut allergies. I get it that allergies can be "annoying". Believe me I know. I have 4 kids and a husband all with lengthy lists of foods they can't eat. You want to talk about annoying, none of them even have the same food allergies. Why would you bring a known anaphylactic allergen into a classroom a risk a child's life just so the other kids can have peanuts for their sundaes? I could have suggested many other toppings to use that are just as crunchy and salty as peanuts.
If my son would have stayed in the room while the other kids ate peanuts and gone into an anaphylactic asthmatic reaction how would that have impacted your child? It's not a pretty scene. It's happened more than once before. He would have started coughing, then a rash would have overcome his body, his eyes would swell and his voice would have become raspy and probably disappeared altogether. He would have ended up gasping for air between coughs, possibly even vomiting. If a child would have touched a peanut and then touched his arm it would have set his reaction off and ruined the day for everyone. Especially him. You see though, his day was ruined as soon as he was aware there were peanuts in there. He already doesn't get to participate in the food part of any social event. This day he also didn't get to exchange Valentines. He will forever remember his 3rd grade Valentine's day as the one when he had to leave because someone brought peanuts. I also fear how he'll do in class the rest of the week as the room has been contaminated.
Today could have ended horribly. I'm so thankful I could be there. It breaks my heart that he already goes through so much in life dealing with food and then we run into situations like this that never should have happened. I am always available to make sure we keep things safe for my son. I'm not sure how it didn't happen this time.
I am more than happy to answer allergy questions for anyone that isn't familiar with how allergies work as they're different for everyone.
Four Days
It's been 4 days since my coffee pot broke. Luckily my new one showed up today. Today was so emotional draining I just knew I couldn't go another day with out my coffee pot.
Last night I typed up a letter and attached it to an email I sent to the VP at the school. I was expecting her phone call at anytime from the moment I woke up. I was on pins and needles worried about how the call would go. I was also extremely worried about Gage and if he would have reaction in his classroom from something not getting wiped down good enough after the Valentines Day peanut fest 2017.
Today I was asked by a few different people "Why didn't you say something right then?" and "Why didn't you have them throw them away and allow Gage to stay?". I've learned that since the time Gage was born my gut instincts with him are typically correct. In that instant my first thought was to get him out of there. So I did. As we walked down the hall I knew that anything that needed to be said didn't need to happen in front of the class. I also knew Gage was safe by my side.
I called the school nurse first thing to let her know that if Gage came to her itching, coughing or feeling weird that she needed to call me asap. She was so upset by what had happened yesterday. She was in action all morning making sure the right people knew how wrong it was for there to be peanuts in a peanut free classroom.
Finally the VP called me. We discussed what happened, how it happened and what will be done. In the end everyone at the school is going to get a refresher course on allergies. Tomorrow I am going to ask that the line of action for figuring out what to serve at parties be changed. Which may include me becoming more involved at the school which I don't have time for, however, with my kids life on the line I'll figure it out. The phone call was a huge relief. The correct actions are being taken and hopefully a situation like this one will never happen again.
Something funny about this whole situation, Gage didn't even know what an ice cream sundae is. When I told him his class was having ice cream sundaes for the party he asked my why were they waiting until Sunday to eat their ice cream. Poor kid was so confused. How sad is it that he didn't know that?!
On the home front I also dealt with Tinleigh having an airborne reaction to my eggs I had for breakfast. I forgot her allergy meds at bedtime. I hate to think that one missed dose is all it took but I can't figure out what else it could have been as far as timing goes.
Miss Layton woke up covered in eczema. It's been in spots here and there but it really took off last night. She has it all down her thighs, her fore arms, groin and on the sides of her back. I know what's coming, want to guess? She's also not been eating much at all, toddler phase or does her throat hurt? I'm holding out until her scope in April unless she gets a lot worse.
I'm emotionally exhausted.
Tomorrow, coffee.
He tends his flock like a shepherd:
He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart;
he gently leads those that have young.

Come back and I'll fill you in on Tinleigh's new adventure in food.
Valentine's Day Spoiled
Sigh. I dread holidays while the kids are at school. They play a game or two and have a treat. You would think that having done this for 6 school years I would be use to it. I'm not though. It always makes me sad that I have to take in a special treat for my kids. I wonder what they're thinking as they see there friends eating things they can't have. Especially the fun party treats. Does it make my kids sad? They've never expressed sadness to me. I do wonder.
Today was another typical Valentine's Day party for Gage. We made the box, made the cards and I had the special treat ready for him. I knew he would get treats from his friends he can't have and that's another bowl of sadness. I do see him get upset as I pluck treat by treat away from his pile of goodies. I keep catching myself lately saying "Your day will come". I think maybe that's how I can keep hope in their heart, and mine.
As usual the girls are in tow and we went to Gage's class room for the party. When we arrived at the school Gage was waving to me from the nurses office. It was time for his last bolus of the school day. So we waited on him and then headed up together. When we walked into the room we stood near the door where the Guinea pig is as the kids played a game. I knew the class was going to have ice cream sundaes today so I didn't want Tinleigh near the food table. I said hello to Gage's teacher and tried to keep the girls near me. Once they had reached their max of waiting I took them down the hall to say hello to Charlie's 4th grade teacher. When I turned around to head back to Gage's room there he was standing in the bathroom entrance. He says to me "Mom there's peanuts in the room." I was a bit confused. I asked him what he meant and he said they told him they had peanuts for the ice cream sundaes. My heart crumbled to the floor right there in the bathroom entrance. I told him we would have to leave that it just wasn't safe for him. He pleaded with me that they hadn't exchanged Valentine's yet. I told him to go ask his teacher if they were eating or doing Valentine's next. So he went to ask as Tinleigh be-bopped into use the restroom. I walked towards Gage's classroom but stayed in the hall so Tinleigh could find me. Gage came back out and told me they were going to eat then wash hands and then do Valentines. I explained that it still wouldn't be safe for him because they would be touching their food and if someone didn't wash good enough or got peanuts on something then touched his Valentine it wasn't worth the risk. He looked sad so I quickly told him we would go buy a new video game. He was okay with that. As I stood in the hall I overheard the helper mom say "I just want to point out that there are peanuts here on the table so if you're allergic don't take any." Did I really just hear that? Once Gage gathered his things and came into the hallway I asked him if there were any other kids in there with a nut allergy because we needed to get them out as well. He said he was the only one. Off we went.
We had to stop in the office so I could check Gage out. We briefly spoke to someone about what was going on and it was quickly made known to the assistant principal. What happened is not resolved yet.
The thing was though I had found a special ice cream bar that Gage could have. He needed to eat it before we left because it was melting in my bag. So we camped out in the entrance to the school and Gage enjoyed his "ice cream" treat.
I am upset that the event happened. It did bring me out of my allergy world bubble. I didn't know much about allergies when our journey began. I didn't have allergies and neither did anyone I knew. Now I know too much. There are still people in the world that aren't familiar with allergies. Even though Gage's class is peanut free and there's a sign on the door I guess that mom just assumed it would be okay if Gage didn't eat them. What she doesn't know is that if anyone touched Gage with peanut residue on their finger, or if Gage touched something that has peanut residue on it, it would have been bad. It's happened before and Gage went into a full blown asthmatic anaphylactic reaction. I'm sure the party mom wouldn't want to witness one of those in front of a classroom full of kids.
Poor Gage. Even though he got a new video game out of the day he will always remember his 3rd grade Valentine's Day party the one where "they brought peanuts".
Why Not?
So if I'm getting back into blogging why not just turn this into our allergy reaction diary instead of a blog? Is there a difference?
I need notes. The daily what happened to whom. I really need someone just following me around all day with a pad and paper writing things down for me.
Today was great. Aside from Layton's typical not wanting to eat anything. Which has been worse for the last week, but I am blaming her cold right now.
This evening Gage started in with his typical "I'm hungry". He says this even while hooked up to his feeding tube. He misses eating more than I could ever imagine, even though his tummy is full. I ask him what he wants and his response "something crunchy but chewy, something like French fries". This kills me to the core. Not only do I not have a solution for his want, I painfully know that he will never have French fries. The last time Gage ate potato he vomited everywhere, he was one. He only knows what a French fry looks like. He has no ide what it tastes like. He's anaphylactic to potato, he'll never taste one.
You see, now, when Gage asks me for something to eat he's very descriptive. He knows what texture he wants, he knows if he wants sweet or salty. He wants to eat real food. It makes me so sad that it's also started making me angry. There is nothing I can do for him. Nothing.
I think though, Gage still has hope. That's the one thing I feel is slipping from me. Even though Gage is so frustrated and hates his disease, he still see's the future and him not having a feeding tube. He can see himself eating food. We've been in this for 7 years and we're not where I had envisioned us being. I guess that's why my hope is falling.
It's all the little events too that are killing my spirit. Like tonight. Once Gage settled on some raw cauliflower with salt I thought all would be well. I knew it wasn't what he really wanted, but he crunched away. Then after he had crunched through one big tree he says mom my eye is itchy. I told him he was getting in the shower next and he would be okay. However, he comes over to me and says and there's a bump on my lip. Sure enough he had a little blister right there on his lip as his eye was becoming more and more red. He went into the bathroom to hop in the shower. When I took him in a towel I noticed he also had a big hive on his back. That's when the partial panic sets in. Is this going to be a full blown anaphylactic reaction? So we gave him a Benadryl and I told him if he starts feeling anything in his throat or with his breathing to get out of the shower and come get me. Luckily, his reaction didn't get out of control. His throat did hurt a bit but the Benadryl kicked in and he was fine.
So now we have the issue of what the heck happened? Was it just the salt? Has he become allergic to cauliflower? I'll have a talk with him about it and see what his judgement is on it. I'll let him make the decision on if he tries it again or not.
Be strong and courageous.
Do not be afraid;
do not be discouraged,
for the
Lord your God
will be with you wherever you go.

What's new?
I can't believe I've neglected my blog for an entire year. Yet, I know how busy life is at this stage and I know I just didn't have time.
So what's new? We've gone through a lot this last year. That's the one thing I hate about not blogging, I won't remember everything. This blog provides me with so many memories about things that we've gone through. It's so constant in my life that I push a lot of it out of my memory.
I've been thinking about writing this blog for a few weeks now. I couldn't decide if I wanted to do one big summary and just touch on each kid or do a 4 blog, one per kid, series. Because I know my time constraints I'm going to just do one post.
So here we go, oldest to youngest.
Charlie: I think Charlie's last food trial I posted about was beef. He had passed and is still eating it. That's a huge add to his diet. He then moved on to crawfish and lobster. That one was a fail.
Charlie then took a break and was just scoped again in January just for a check to make sure he was still clear before starting his egg trail. Charlie's been eating egg baked in things like cookies and cake for quite some time now. He was ready to trial scrambled egg. So far so good. His eyes do look a tad dark to me but we're not going to stop unless he starts having bigger symptoms. If anything he'll at least get to eat them for 3 months.
If my memory serves me right Charlie only had 2 weird allergy reactions in the past year. One being a swollen lip. We still have no clue what caused it. It was the only symptom he had. It got pretty big, Benadryl helped but it didn't go away completely until the next evening.
Charlie's other incident was eye swelling caused by a large dusty brand new barn. It was crazy. The barn was brand new. Absolutely nothing in it. About a half hour after being inside his eyes just swelled right up. We showered him off and gave him his inhaler. He was fine.
Charlie also had a little hernia surgery. To any other kid it would probably be a big deal. Charlie told the anesthesiologist where he wanted his IV. LOL
There was a rough patch in November when Charlie had some bowl issues for 2 weeks. He ended up on some super strong antibiotics that finally kicked it. If it reoccurs he'll have a colonoscopy. We're praying it was just a super strong illness and nothing GI related. Only time will tell our doctor told us.
Before school started this year we toured Charlie's new building he would be in. Once we were done with our tour Charlie's eyes were watery and itchy. I was panicked that he was allergic to the building. Luckily we're in an amazing school system. We took Charlie back for another private tour not telling him we were just testing his allergies. He passed that time and has been okay so far this school year. I though who in the world would be allergic to their school building?! Of course it would be one of my kids.
Gage. My sweet Gage. This poor boy. He's had a rough year. You would assume that starting out life with this disease you would be use to it and it wouldn't be a big deal. Well I'm quickly learning that, that isn't the case. This year has proven to been our hardest emotionally by far. Gage is done. He's done with the disease. He's done with his feeding tube. He's done. He hates it, asks me why him, gets angry and sad. Having a chronic illness is not easy. Learning to cope isn't easy either.
Last I posted Gage had failed dairy. We then had to wait for 6 weeks to let Gage heal from how horrible his esophagus was. The GI dr wanted to scope him again and make sure he was cleared up before starting a new trial. If my memory serves me right we had pulled rice from Gage's diet before starting dairy. He didn't get it back either. I don't think he was clear after pulling the milk and waiting. So we decided to have him trial something we thought would be a pass. Gage trialed raspberries. During his raspberry trial Gage was still eating fish. One day at the store he declared he wanted some salmon. So Nathan grilled him up some for Gage's dinner. After eating it he said his throat was gunky. That's not uncommon for him. He didn't complain and we went on with our evening. An hour after eating the salmon Gage came to me and was starting to cough. It escaladed quickly. We gave him Benadryl and an albuterol breathing treatment. During the breathing treatment we noticed his face was becoming more and more red. I asked him to lift his shirt. He was beginning to be covered in hives. Nathan grabbed the epi pen and I had Charlie keep the girls in his bedroom while we administered the epi pen to Gage. After some time spent in the ER Gage was released with some steroids and a sad heart that he can probably never eat salmon again. Two days later was mother's day. That was the day his emotions hit an all time high. Gage failed raspberries. His scope was horrible. GI had us pull fish. One of his very first safe foods. We then waited a period of 8 weeks and scoped him again. This time Gage was clear and GI let him add rice back in!So he trialed rice for three months, and failed. That was super hard on him mentally, emotions were high. We decided to let him trial lamb. Our GI had, had good results with lamb on her tougher to figure out patients. Unfortunately, he failed lamb too. He loved lamb burgers. Nathan was also making him lamb jerky. The kid was in meat heaven.
After that we made the decision to put him on the steroid slurry. That's where you mix nebulizer steroids with sugar, or in our case pixi sticks, and he swallows it. The steroid suppresses, or masks, the disease allowing Gage to eat. We will do this for a year or two and basically give Gage a mental break. As long as the steroid doesn't mess up his cortisol levels we will stick with this. It will give him a break from scopes as well. So the game plan is we will add one new food a week and as long as he's not having symptoms he will continue to eat it. In April Gage has to have the hole to his feeding tube dilated because it's slowly closing on him. If his tube would happen to fall out we would literally have seconds to get it back in there as the hole would close. We will scope him at that time just to make sure that the dosage amount of steroid is the right one for him. He still has wiggle room to move up in dosage. So far he's had apple and oats. He does have dark circles around his eyes but we're going to ignore them.
One of the downsides to doing this is that in 2 years time when we stop he will go back to those same 8 foods and we will start food trials all over again. We explained that to Gage, he understands and feels the break is worth it.
Tinleigh. This child. I would say she's had a worse year than Gage, if that's possible. Last year this time Tinleigh was trialing black beans. She loved them and still talks about them. She had noodles, beans and I would turn them into powder and make her a mug cake. While she was trialing black beans she also really started having airborn reactions to dairy and beef. She would break out in hives on her face, become stuffy, sneeze and even get an itchy throat. They progressed from there and I'll touch more on that. Tinleigh trialed black beans for quite a while. If you remember back to when she had the episode in the OR or remembering the procedure. We decided to give her a break from scopes. Because she wasn't being scoped she had a very traumatic g-tube change in the GI office. It doesn't hurt, it's just scary when you're 4. Right after that appointment her g-tube fell out. That g-tube falling out was horrible. Of course she wasn't about to let one of us touch her and get it in so off the to ER we went. The poor nurse was young and nervous. I'm certain Tinleigh's screaming and begging to just stop wasn't helping things. They couldn't get a catheter in her but they were able to get a ng-tube in. That's the tiny feeding tube that goes into the nose. So because of this happening she now needed her feeding tube hole stretched to get a g-tube back in. Which meant we could also scope to see how she did on black beans. Luckily they allowed me to dress and come in to the procedure. With a heavy dose of versed Tinleigh still screamed bloody murder as I carried her limp body into the OR. However, after the procedure was over she didn't remember a thing. The anesthesiologist said he gave her quite a bit more meds than she had, had previously by a different anesthesiologist. She failed black beans.
Next up Tinleigh trialed watermelon. She loved it. She failed it.
After that we needed to make sure Tinleigh was clear on her 3 safe foods. So Tinleigh did not get to add anything new and we scoped her after 3 months to time it up with her g-tube change. This time we swapped out versed for valium. It helped calm her prior to the scope but we realized she needed a bit of a higher dose. Which makes sense since she needs more meds than required by her weight to knock her out. She failed her scope on 3 safe foods. That was a super sad day. It was even worse that her g-tube popped out the day after the scope. Luckily that time She let me put it back in. It was a magical.
It was 4 years to the day that Tinleigh was diagnosed with EoE that we had to tell Tinleigh she had failed her 3 safe foods and she couldn't eat them anymore. Four very long years of trials and even a feeding tube and the poor girl can't eat anything. Tinleigh was just scoped on Jan 27th having only elemental formula in her diet. I just learned on Friday, yesterday, that she failed the scope. None of her numbers make any sense when comparing to recent scopes. She was actually better during her watermelon trial than she is now. GI thought maybe Tinleigh is a kid that environmental allergies effect her EoE now. Unfortunately, because of Tinleigh's airborne reactions she's been on a double dose of allergy meds every day and those cancel out that theory. We're at a really tough cross-road with Tinleigh. She's going to need medication to get clear at this point. The trouble is Tinleigh was on steroids before she got her feeding tube and her numbers were still climbing. Our GI did notice that Tinleigh was on rice during that time and that was a huge fail for her while on elemental. So do we risk wasting time and having her go on steroids again to see if they will clear her up and allow her to eat foods? If they do it would be wonderful. Except being that she can only be on them for a year or two I'm not sure what happens after that time frame. Our other option is to put Tinleigh on a low dose of chemo. That's another blog topic I'll cover if we come to it. Our GI is talking things over with her boss and colleagues and will come up with a plan in the next week or two. It's been SO HARD having her be elemental again. This child just wants to eat again.
Oh, her airborne reactions. They got out of control. By November they had started becoming almost daily and in December they were. It didn't matter what we were cooking Tinleigh would have a reaction. We even tried just ignoring her to see if maybe she was making things up. Unfortunately she wasn't. We tested her for mast cell disorder and it's not that. Luckily a daily double dose of allergy meds has put a stop to them. She went 3 days this week with out any, on accident, and on day 3 she had a reaction. Our allergist has spoke to a specialist and they're both at a loss as to why this is happening with her. Hopefully we will be able to wean her off the allergy meds by the end of summer. They're hoping this was just a fluke thing that happened to her.
Layton is awesome. As of now she doesn't have any Ige allergies that we know of. We are teaching her about allergies and how she can't have certain things around Tinleigh. She's catching on rather quickly. With that said though, she did chase Tinleigh around the house one evening with a slice of wheat bread. No harm done. We do have to keep a close eye on her at the table. If Tinleigh has a snack and gets up to leave Layton often tries to get a bite of what ever it is Tinleigh is having. On one such episode it ended up with me not knowing it happened and Tinleigh vomiting because of a reaction.
We scoped Layton last summer and we're not going to say that Layton officially has EoE. However, she does have minimal eosinophils through in her mid and lower esophagus. We will treat her with reflux meds and pray that clears her up for now. Layton's stomach was clear however, there were eosinophils in her duodenum. That's where the stomach meets the small intestine. We're just going to keep an eye on it for now. GI hates to say it but thinks, and I agree, Layton will probably have a mild case more like Charlie. Gage and Tinleigh were babies with issues. Charlie didn't have any troubles until he was 4-1/2. We plan to scope Layton in April to see where she's at. She's still not the best eater. Her bottom gets strange random rashes, even being potty trained. We've also noticed more recently she has allergic shiners around her eyes. We weren't going to scope her this year until she just told me that bologna doesn't hurt her throat. Why would an almost 3 year old tell me that? Do other foods hurt when she eats them? So we'll scope her to see if something is going on.Lucky Layton had a lot of firsts this year. First chicken nuggets, donut, homemade chocolate chip cookies, cake, lots of things that we just don't have around.
Wow, Layton's update is short and sweet!
So what's it like at our allergic house? Still chaos.
Monday: drop Charlie off at school and immediately call the school nurse because he had decided to pet the neighbor's cat before he got in the car and his eye was now swelling shut.
Tues: while Charlie and Gage set corn out for deer Charlie, again, touched his eyes and they swelled up.
Charlie also had a GI reaction to his dinner.
Wed: Nathan impacted shrimp in his throat. EoE symptom, not anaphylactic reaction.…
Friday: Tinleigh had an airborne asthmatic reaction to beef.
Saturday: Tinleigh had another airborne reaction to beef.
Nathan had a freak, out of no where reaction, that swelled his throat and he had to epi pen himself.
We've also still had our share of the icky stuff. One day I let the boys stay home today with nasty colds. We went to the Dr mainly for a Dr note for school. New school policy.
Gage tested positive for strep – they're all being treated for strep.
Charlie is also being treated for a sinus infection.
Tinleigh is also being treated for walking pneumonia.
Then Layton got strep. Gage got pneumonia, or was it Charlie? Then Layton got sick from the antibiotics. Then Charlie had bowl troubles for 2 weeks. It was the longest November EVER.
The highlight of my year though was FABLOGCON. I met the most amazing group of people. They were my people. They knew my struggles and understood what we were going through at our house. My most favorite part of that was meeting a woman I've only know through FB and phone calls for 6 years! The creator of FABLOGCON Jenny Sprague. She's amazing. I highly suggest going to anyone in the world of allergies.

Vice - Chancellor
Tamil Nadu Dr.J.Jayalalitha Fisheries University
E-mail: email@example.com
The Tamil Nadu Dr.J.Jayalalithaa Fisheries University is in the phase of an exciting and significant transformation that will build on strengths and global reputation for Fisheries Education in a world-class learning environment. A significant and welcome boost was the expansion of the university constituent units by placing its foot in many allied sectors of fisheries. This was a major milestone for the University, and its staff and students, and allows us to look to the future with confidence. On behalf of the University community, I want to thank the Government for its substantial commitment, which will enable us to create a modern tertiary institution that continues to support research intensive tertiary education to uplift the fisheries and aquaculture sector. We are extremely fortunate to have an able administrator par excellence as the Chancellor of this University. The Hon'ble Governor Thiru. Banwarilal Purohit's advice and uninhibited support serve as key motivating factors for us to move ahead rapidly in ensuring quality education, outstanding research and effective outreach programmes to serve the people of this great State.
I am sincerely indebted to our Hon'ble Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu Thiru.Edappadi K.Palaniswami for his enormous support to enhance the quality of Fisheries Education in India. The Pro-Chancellor & Hon'ble Minister for Fisheries and Personnel & Administrative Reforms, Government of Tamil Nadu, Thiru. D. Jayakumar is instrumental behind all the initiatives and activities for the successful functioning of this unique University. He has been a source of constant strength and encouragement in all our endeavours. The shower of support from the government bureaucrats notably the chief minister secretary Dr.Vijayakumar, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Secretary Dr.K.Gopal and other IAS officials names will be definitely carved in our University for their dedicated contribution. In April 2019, I have completed my second full cycle of annual activities at TNJFU.
It was a year of renewal and reinvigoration, as the university has placed its stride in many aspects by establishing a new college of Fish Nutrition and Food Technology (CFNFT) for offering self finance B.Tech programmes. TNJFU also conquered the first position to operate ICAR-KVK at Sikkal, Nagapattinam under its umbrella among the fisheries universities in the country. Ours is a very young but very vibrant University. We celebrated its 6th Foundation Day recently and I am extremely happy to report to you that in such a short span of time the University has got a very high visibility and has been recognized as an institution that is involved in a very high quality teaching and research in diverse fields. The University has also received the NABL accreditation for its quality assurance laboratory.
The University campus is home to around 1500 students from different states of the country and abroad. The demand for various courses in the University is also very high. Our enduring mission, harness the science of fisheries in the State for food, nutrition and livelihood forms the bedrock of our strategy. We are working to adapt and strengthen the University in this challenging economic and competitive environment. We ensure to offer high-quality education to all who wish to realise their ambitions and fulfil their potential. The long term struggle on the reopening of main administrative building has been sorted out and the University headquarters has been shifted to its own building parallel to the Vettar river channel at Nagapattinam district. The revamping of the Post graduate syllabus has been entrusted under my chairmanship by ICAR and our University faculty have also been assigned to complete this important task. My aspiration to make a TNJFU as an Unique university in outperforming of all the activities has been reinstated by conducting several National and International Symposiums on Aquaculture and Fisheries Sector.
Recruitment of the University officers for the positions of Registrar, Director of Research and Dean for Ponneri Fisheries College has been conducted for the governance of the University. The development of an online faculty review assessment, revamping of the TNJFU website and recruitment of assistant professors, subject matter specialists and non-teaching staff further strengthen the pillars of the university. Last year University has witnessed a greater focus on building research facilities augmented by funding from various national and international funding agencies. Many new labs have been added in various constituent units during this year. Resources have been generated by the faculty through sponsored research projects which adds value to their research and technology development. Faculty members of the University have actively involved themselves in consultancy projects from various industries. Currently 30 research and consultancy projects funded by various national and international funding agencies like DST, DBT, Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Ministry of Environment etc are ongoing with a total budget outlay of over Rs. 3906.78 Lakhs. I offer congratulations to the faculty members for getting these grants. Many students and faculty members have got benefited of exchange programmes such as RAWE through abroad international programmes. I am sure that the number of extramural projects will further increase during this year.
Our stronger financial results provide us with the means to embark on a range of exciting new strategic projects. The strategic plan envisions the development of infrastructure commensurate with the anticipated increases in research needs and in the numbers of the faculty and students. Plans are well advanced across campus for enhancements to our information technology (IT) infrastructure, new state-of-the-art teaching and research facilities and other initiatives to positively impact the student experience. The tie ups with private institutions was also given due importance by signing MoU's for the collaborative programmes and researches. The research works of the post graduate students were taken utmost care by conducting Synopsis and Pre thesis seminars and amidst of my busy administrative works I enjoyed immersing myself in bringing out the quality research from the young minds.
TNJFU Publications such as "Meenvalasudar" magazine and Monthly Newsletter were brought out in fresh design format for publication. We face many financial demands: maintaining and improving our track record of research and teaching excellence as well as refurbishing and maintaining campus so that we can be proud of world-class teaching and research facilities. Recognising the internal and external opportunities and challenges has led us to start work on a new Strategy for the University, as well as maintaining and enhancing our outstanding academic and pedagogical track record, we also want to make the University, more international, make a quantum leap in how we manage and maintain our estate, achieve greater financial sustainability and build on our academic distinctiveness.
My second year tenure ship have stabilised the past challenges and I know our University is ready, able and equipped to continue these successes, with the financial resilience and adaptive capacity to embrace whatever the future holds. Amidst the change, the University has continued to deliver on its vision and is proud of how much has been accomplished. In 2018-19, we were once again ranked as one of the top 25 universities in India and 1st among SAU's in Tamil Nadu. It fills me with tremendous satisfaction to see how our staff, students and graduates are using their education and experiences at the University to realise their dreams and make their mark. TNJFU seeks to rise in those rankings whose parameters are in alignment with the institution's objectives. TNJFU aims to attract the brightest students from diverse backgrounds and offer them an excellent education. The Strategic Plan seeks to leverage the traditional strengths of TNJFU and to acquire or develop new strengths. In particular, it seeks to nurture large groups of faculties working on transformational technologies that have the potential to address the societal challenges faced in India today with regard to climate, animal health, nutrition & natural resources conservation etc. By the next year, the University will complete this significant, yet vital, change process successfully. We are now implementing our new structure and looking to the future with a great deal of excitement and optimism. Our focus in the year ahead will be on the formulation of our education strategies and on the relationship between our teaching and research missions.
I would like to thank our University officers, teaching faculty, non-teaching staff, students, graduates and many friends for their ongoing support, commitment to our success and involvement. At this juncture, I also record my super thanks to my beloved family members for their sacrifices in carrying out my duties. It has been a humbling experience and unparalleled privilege to lead this dynamic, young University in my second year tenure of Vice-Chancellor. I look forward to building on our traditions and significant achievements of the past year and to continuing to nurture and support our dedicated staff and talented students to achieve their full potential.

Team Development
Team Development
Teams are a combination of unique individuals, making this random combination into a well-oiled and high functioning machine is difficult. When we get it right, teams are worth a multiple and not just the sum of its members. The combination of different personalities, learning styles and leadership approaches will influence how a team will become most effective. A well balanced combination of differences infused with some appropriate leadership can lead to fantastic achievements.
Solving the mismatch
When we 'change the conversation we can change the culture' (Peter Block). Identifying and celebrating differences is step 1, we can start to appreciate other individuals and focus on their strengths. Members of a team can solve most of their frustrations and conflict by understanding themselves and others. To make a team work more effectively interventions to start the conversation about this can help. There are plenty of tools available that will help to understand these complicated dynamics. When we then work with leadership to find effective leadership for individuals and teams a healthy culture can evolve.
The final challenge is to put systems in place to keep the conversation going. The only way to achieve great, autonomous working teams is by keeping the conversation going. Effective coaching cultures within teams are highly effective to keep performance high and conflict at a minimum. By creating a culture where differences are used as an advantage and with a lot of understanding for personal differences; teams and organisations will be great places to work.

With the 1951 release of Ike Turner's "Rocket 88" and its scuzzy guitar track, the history of rock 'n' roll
and fuzz were forever entwined.
Early Distortion: Busted Tubes and Slashed SpeakersAlthough Glenn Snoddy's clever little bit of alchemy led to the first widely disseminated solid-state fuzz box, the sound of distorted guitar (or even bass) was nothing entirely new when it landed Marty Robbins' a hit record in 1961. Many blues guitarists had been pushing their tweed-era tube amps into juicy overdrive for years, and other crazy flukes had yielded some wild tones that proved as irresistible as the sound of the busted mixer channel.
Rewind to a rainy night in Memphis in 1951, when—according to legend—someone dropped the band's Fender amp while Ike Turner & His Kings of Rhythm were loading in for a recording session with producer Sam Phillips. Whether it was the fall or the rain that got into the circuit, the amp popped a tube during power-up at the studio.
As a result, one of the songs from that session, "Rocket 88"—credited to R&B singer/saxophonist Jackie Brenston and His Delta Cats, though the Cats were really Turner and his band—was underpinned by the distorted guitar of Willie Kizart. That sound helped "Rocket 88" enter the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, honored as the first rock 'n' roll song and forever tying distorted electric guitar to the genre's first days.
Even in the early to mid '60s, the fuzz box was brand-new tech, and not everyone was aware of it or had access. Guitarist Dave Davies of the Kinks famously went to the extreme lengths of slicing the speaker cone in his little Elpico amplifier—perhaps inspired by the holes Link Wray poked in his amp's speaker to record 1958's "Rumble"—to record the gnarly, ragged guitar track on the band's 1964 hit "You Really Got Me." A fuzz box would have saved him some trouble, although there was no U.K.-made commercial unit available until the Sola Sound Tone Bender of 1965.

gear pump
Ideal to transport different media
The external gear pump belongs to the class of rotating postive displacement pumps. They can manage low viscosity liquids like alcohols, solvents or liquid gases as well as medium and high viscosity liquids like polymer melts, gumbase or rubber. Liquids containing solids are not really suitable for gearpumps unless the particles are really small.
A gear pump comprises a housing with two covers. The powered gear wheel and driven gear wheel are borne in four friction bearings. The protruding drive shaft is sealed. The meshing gear wheels are enclosed by the housing. The amount of clearances between the tips of the teeth and the housing is extremely small and precisely defined There are ports in the housing. One port is at the suction side (inlet) and the other at the pressure side of the pump (discharge). One gear wheel is normally driven by a motor connected to the drive shaft, which protrudes from the housing. When the gear wheels are rotating, a chamber, which is filled with the medium being pumped, is formed between two teeth and the housing. The medium is thus conveyed from the suction side to the pressure side of the pump. The medium being pumped is displaced from between the gap between the teeth at the point at which the teeth mesh. For this reason, the gear pump is known as a displacement pump.
range of applications of a gear pump
External gear pumps are used preferably for liquids that do not contain any solids. The viscosity range is between 0,2 mPas and 1 Million mPas. The liquid should have lubricating properties.
Technical features of a gear pump
- Compact design
- Many different materials available
- Many sealing systems as an option
- High differential pressures (up to 550 bar)
- High sytem pressure (up to 700 bar)
Benefits of a gear pump
- Hohe Dosiergenauigkeit
- Hoher Wirkungsgrad
- Pulsationsarme Förderung
- Niedrige Lifecyclecosts
- Hohe Verfügbarkeit
- Geringer Wartungsaufwand
Delivery characteristics of a gear pump
- Capacity up to 200 m³/hr
- Pressure up to 550 bar
- Speed up to 4000 RPM
- Viscosity up to 1 Million mPas

I am certainly addicted to the ride and the journey, then I am to the bike itself. The feeling of riding on long and short journey's is certainly the best feeling. My husband and I mostly travel alone on our long journeys. After joining the Ulysses Club in 2018, we have made some pretty awesome trips. We rode from WA to SA and NSW, traveled around WA and making plans for more big rides in the future.

This article attempts to piece together the available data on Sino-Vietnamese trade of northern Vietnam in the early nineteenth century with a focus on its upland region. This essay shares the views expressed in the works by Oscar Salemink, Philip Talor, Sarah Turner and other scholars on northern uplands, and in particular their rejection of the "urban-rural," "advanced-backward," "civilized-barbarian," lowland-highland dichotomies. But building upon these works, this essay also tries to determine what proportion of overland and maritime trade made up the Nguyễn revenue, and to understand the interactions among various peoples living between the mountains and the sea. The data seems to suggest that, contrary to the view that this upland region was remote and consequently isolated, the upland region (outer provinces) near the Sino-Vietnamese border represented an important and even crucial portion of the overall revenue of Nguyễn Vietnam in the early nineteenth century.
