Dealing with discrimination is rarely a pleasant experience. Whether it's on the basis of your race, orientation, or a disability, it can be very hurtful to realize that someone else is treating you poorly over something you can't control. The situation becomes even more dire when the discrimination happens at the workplace since you can't simply ignore it because you need the money. Instead of thinking that you'll just have to deal with it, use this information to learn more about why now is the time to hire a civil rights attorney.

Frequently couples join together in a union that shares many financial similarities to a legal marriage, but for an assortment of reasons they do not legally wed. When a split-up happens, sometimes there are disputes over these financial arrangements. That is where the idea of palimony was established most notably in an infamous California case, Marvin vs. Marvin. While laws in each state differ, many have been established to protect one or the other of the couples.

Ethernet serves
A service provider provides services via ADSL and VDSL connections. Ethernet over DSL is delivered over VDSL. Ethernet over VDSL can reach speeds up to 40 Mbit/s on the current copper network. To access the provider network, WBA transport capacity is purchased at KPN Wholesale. To register the connected customers with their requested service attributes and to monitor the utilization of the purchased capacity, the TeleScope Inventory Management system is used.
The customer demands optical fiber
The Inventory Management of a Telecom Operator is implemented using TeleScope software.It involves the Carrier Ethernet Network (CEN) and the Access Network. TeleScope monitors the connection capacity for optical fiber, the occupation of ports on the Service Access Managers and records and mutates the customer connections of the Access Network. Requests or changes for the connections come from a Business Portal. The communication between the portal and TeleScope is provided by the P2ALinker that integrates applications based on XML messages.
From service request to connected service
For telematics service department of a large company in the Netherlands an integration is achieved between the Service Management system that manages active services and GoEfficient that coordinates the work needed to achieve the physical connections (cable work). The P2ALinker an XML data exchange was implemented between the Web portal where requests for new or changes to existing connections coming in, the service management system and GoEfficient. The integration of GoEfficient and the Network Inventory system TeleScope was realized at an earlier stage. The exchange of data between the applications has the process greatly improved and simplified. Users no longer have to use different applications and "double" mutations are no longer necessary.
A flow of orders
Koning & Hartman uses GoEfficient and P2ALinker
Koning & Hartman has realized a connection with the Reggefiber Building B2B Web Portal. Koning & Hartman performs multiple FTTH projects in the Netherlands. The P2ALinker software collects all construction and management data and automates the workflow GoEfficient and state transitions.
Reporting real time data from many sources
For a large company P2ALinker is used as a reporting mediator.
To get a customer view of telecommunication services provided, we have deployed P2ALinker between business portal and all administrative and technical systems. Any request from the business portal, marks the start for the P2ALinker to perform complex dialogues with dozens of administrative and technical systems to retrieve the data of the services provided. By the use of parallel request and the high performance of the P2A Linker software, dozens of requests are carried out in very acceptable times.
Through the P2ALinker the XML-traffic becomes fully configurable. The consistency between the messages – the dossiers – is managed in GoEfficient. Particular challenges in this project were: The long waiting time (sometimes weeks) that can occur between a request to an application of a Telco and the response from that application and the bundling of all sent en recieved messages that together form a dossier.
Intergration with customer applications
With the P2ALinker software we created a Web service that enables customers' business applications to deliver trouble tickets to the application of the servicing company. A XML-ticket triggers the P2ALinker to request GoEfficient, to create a new process (workflow) to solve the interruption. The progress of the trouble ticket process is reported to the delivering party through reports from GoEfficient These reports are sent to the external application in transformed XML (using XSLT) via P2ALinker.

News Release (447)
Lee Hee-jun quantifies sesame oil, pursues globalization
By Kwon Mee-yoo
Lee Hee-jun, contents director of Yeonnam Bangatgan in Mapo-gu, Seoul, is the only sesame oil sommelier in the world.
He visits master sesame oil makers around Korea and quantifies each recipe to preserve and promote it. He also opened Yeonnam Bangatgan, a cafe and food culture space, last year to share the Korean sauce with a wider audience including the younger generation and foreigners.
Sesame oil, also called "chamgireum" in Korean, is a popular vegetable oil consumed across the globe, but Korean sesame oil has unique characteristics.
"There are only three countries that eat aromatic sesame oil ― Korea, Japan and China. Its distinct amber color and smell come from roasting sesame. Other countries in the Middle East, America and Europe consume unroasted, cold-pressed sesame oil," Lee explained during an interview with The Korea Times, Tuesday.
Korea is one of the countries that use the most sesame oil, but the largest exporters of sesame oil are Japan, China and Vietnam.
"From the viewpoint of globalization of Korean food, I see the potential for Korean ingredients and sauces abroad. True globalization of Korean food cannot be completed without exporting condiments such as ganjang (soy sauce), ssamjang (soybean paste), gochujang (pepper paste), deulgireum (perilla oil) and chamgireum," Lee said.
Before becoming a sesame oil specialist, Lee was known as a traditional market docent, who researches and educates about markets.
"There are some 1,437 traditional markets in Korea and I've visited 1,011 of them over 10 times to meet the merchants and create archives of the markets. I visit each market multiple times because archiving a market is not a one-off event, but requires understanding of the commercial sphere as well as the lives of the merchants," Lee said.
As he gathered data on Korea's traditional markets, he took an interest in mills that grind rice and other grains for customers, as the pivotal store of a market.
"My data signaled that the mill is the store that lived throughout the life cycle of a market from the beginning till end. According to my research, the mill is the first store of 65 percent of traditional markets and the last store to survive in 75 percent of markets that became extinct," Lee said.
While sesame oil is one of the most used and popular cooking ingredients in Korean cuisine, Lee said sesame oil lost trust in local mills as there were had been incidents of the mills mixing other oils with the sesame oil in the extraction process, and lying about the origin of the sesame seeds.
"To restore trust, we need an expert with professional knowledge in sesame oil, so I started to research it," Lee said.
History of 'chamgireum'
While many consider sesame oil as a very Korean condiment, in fact Korea's self-sufficiency rate of sesame is only 6 percent.
"The rate was similar during the 1392-1910 Joseon Kingdom since sesame is more suitable for cultivation in a hot, dry climate. However, Joseon kings enjoyed sesame oil and the plant was grown to pay tribute to the king," Lee explained.
Lee looked up historical documents to find sesame oil recipes, but only could find writings about kings' fondness for the specialty oil, especially the 21st king Yeongjo (1694-1776).
"In the Annals of King Yeongjo, once he had sesame oil, all the sesame seeds in eight provinces were gone. Back then, there were no oil pressing machines and sesame seeds were hand-milled in a grindstone. They were able to extract very little oil with human pressure on a millstone," Lee said.
Lee is trying to restore the royal recipe for sesame oil, but he has found no documents remaining.
"Sesame oil is a common food material in Korea and no one thought of recording a recipe for such an ordinary item," he said.
So he is putting the puzzle together through oil pressers of Japan, China and the Netherlands, where Korea's oil pressing technique was passed down. "There pressing style is similar to that of Joseon sesame oil makers. Some of their documents are from Joseon."
Though technology developed, the core principle of sesame oil making is the same. "Sesame oil is extracted by pressure. In Joseon, grindstones were used to extract oil from sesame seeds and oil press machines were introduced in the 20th century."
"We might think that foreigners will dislike the strong nutty aroma of Korean sesame oil, but they respect Korea's food culture and are ready to accept sesame oil if proper guidance is given," Lee said.
He came up with a few pairing ideas to make sesame oil more widely used in Western cuisine.
"Sesame oil is not just a flavor enhancer for Korean bibimbap (rice mixed with vegetables). You can mix sesame oil with fig vinegar and pour the dressing over your salad or dip plain ciabatta or baguette in it. I think we can guide foreigners to sesame oil this way first and they will eventually use it in their food culture and lifestyle."
To export Korean sesame oil, Lee needed to quantify and document the oil making process.
"I visited and currently correspond with some 300 master sesame oil makers in Korea. They are on average 73 years old and most do not want to pass down the skill," Lee said. "I want to make a database of their world-class techniques before they pass away and the skill dies with them."
The secret of each sesame oil maker resulting in a different taste and aroma is the temperature of the roasting caldron.
"It's similar to roasting coffee beans. The 0.1 Celsius degree makes a difference. Most master oil makers rely on their senses, acquired though decades of sesame roasting and oil making. I try to quantify the process by recording and averaging," he said.
Sesame oil can be spicy, salty or even bitter. The taste can be decided by the roasting process as well as the seed's place of origin.
"We have visited all sesame-producing districts in Korea and each area has unique characteristics. Andong in North Gyeongsang Province is one of the largest producers of the crop and maintains stable quality and flavor. Sesame grown in inland areas such as Andong, Jecheon and Chungju taste softer and fresher, while sesame grown by the sea wind are more wild and rough. Sesame seeds from Hallim on Jeju Island produce saltier oil," Lee explained.
Mill for new generation
Lee opened Yeonnam Bangatgan in March 2018 as an attempt to disseminate sesame oil with the public.
He picked a residential house in Yeonnam-dong and renovated it into a cafe. "When I surveyed each neighborhood of Seoul, there was no mill in Yeonnam-dong. The last mill was turned into a wine bar in 2017," Lee said. "This house was built in 1978 when sesame oil became popular in Korea along with the introduction of oil pressing machines. Before that, sesame oil was a luxury item in Korea."
Lee introduced a sesame oil brand for the cafe, inspired by King Yeongjo's recipe. To familiarize customers with the sauce, he also invented sesame latte and sesame ice cream.
"I hope Yeonnam Bangatgan will become a window to experience genuine Korean sesame oil full of characteristics," he said.
At Yeonnam Bangatgan, Lee offered sesame oil pairing events to expand the possibilities. "We have hosted events with salted pollack roe and beef and guests tasted each dish with and without sesame oil, relishing the difference," he said. "We also had sesame oil from various countries such as Korea, China, Ethiopia and Togo to understand regional differences."
Lee thinks providing specific information on sesame oil is the key to promoting it overseas.
"There are about 1,300 olive oil sommeliers in the world, contributing to the production, distribution and consumption of the oil. However, for sesame oil, I am the only one. I plan to introduce sesame oil to cooks and food researchers of the world."
Eventually, Lee hopes to export the Korean mill business to the world along with sesame oil.
"We can only export sesame oil, but bringing the Korean-style mill to the world will make expansion easier. Think about a Korean mill in New York's Chelsea Market like how international coffee roasteries and breweries made their way into Korea," Lee said.

Happy March, Capricorn!
Capricorn: Your Month Ahead
March often brings turning points that push us forward, thanks to the astrology energies in play at this time of year. This year is no exception.
In fact, March 2018 arrives with more complex energies than usual.
For you, Capricorn, this month brings opportunities for you to travel, see brothers and sisters, and focus on communication as well as attend to home and family.
Read on to see what lies ahead—and how you can make March's potential work for you.
March Astrology – Headline News
Your Siblings, Short Trips, And Communication
As March begins, we have four planets in Pisces:
- The warm and powerful Sun, who always shines his light freely and generously to bring joy and optimism to our world
- Mercury, who governs thinking, communication, and commerce and brings playfulness and curiosity wherever he goes
- Venus, who governs love, beauty, and relationships—as well as money—and brings grace and sophistication to whatever she touches
- Neptune, who rules Pisces and governs dreams, the arts, and transcendent spirituality—and brings compassion, sensitivity, and an otherworldly quality to our lives
We also have a fifth player in Pisces, an asteroid called Chiron who is associated with where we feel wounded and how we heal and then help others based on our experiences. Chiron is well placed in Pisces, which is one of the signs associated with health.
Pisces is a water sign symbolized by the Fish: two fish swimming in opposite directions while bound together. Pisces helps us go beyond our individuality by enabling spiritual attunement, higher consciousness, and merging with creation's essential unity. This gentle, sensitive sign allows us to sense higher truths through dreams and intuition. It also encourages us to apply these truths to help others through selfless service as well as inspire them through the arts, fantasy and other escapes from everyday life, and spiritual practices such as meditation.
Find out more about Pisces in my article, Pisces Time: Trust Your Intuition. Also, you can tune in to this sign's helpful, healing energies with The Pisces Meditation, an uplifting, guided meditation.
For you, Capricorn, Pisces always activates your third house of brothers and sisters, thinking and communication, and communication of all kinds. All the Pisces planets will energize you to plan outings with siblings or close cousins, make short trips for business and pleasure, and bring greater beauty and idealism to how you speak, write, and think.
Your Home And Family
On March 5, Mercury will leave Pisces for Aries, followed by Venus's entry into Aries on March 6. You'll begin to feel the energies shift away from the watery, emotional realm of Pisces toward the fiery, "let's get going" arena of Aries. On March 20, the Sun leaves Pisces for Aries, giving us the official start to the month of the Ram.
For you, Capricorn, planets in Aries bring zest to your home life because they put fiery passion into your fourth house of home, real estate, family, and parents. This area also governs your heritage and ancestry as well as your deep spiritual roots: as soon as the Sun enters Aries, you may feel an urge to research your family tree or meditate to connect with your inner self.
Equinox: Happy New (Spiritual And Astrological) Year!
The third week of March not only starts a new astrological month and sign but brings a new season: spring in the northern hemisphere and fall in the southern hemisphere.
Both seasons start when the amount of daylight equals the amount of darkness, making day and night last the same amount of time. Their start days come when the Sun enters Aries and when it enters the opposite sign, Libra, and are called the equinoxes. Both equinoxes offer special energies that support spirituality and meditation.
Aries, however, brings yet another gift: as the first sign of the zodiac, it starts the astrological year. According to sages and mystics, Aries also starts a new spiritual year. That makes March 20 even more powerful and important, and you can use its energies to create a new start for yourself.
Mercury Retrograde: Slow Down, Focus On "Re," Stay Flexible
Two days later, on March 22, our solar system's smallest planet, Mercury, goes retrograde for three weeks, until April 15. From our vantage point on Earth, it will look like Mercury is moving backwards in the sky. Although it won't actually be moving in reverse, this Mercury retrograde period will feel like all that is associated with Mercury will be in low gear or moving backwards.
Mercury rules everything related to communication, from computers and cell phones to speaking, writing, and listening. It also governs anything with moving parts, such as electronics, cars, and appliances.
When Mercury goes retrograde, generally three times a year for three weeks at a time, the areas it rules also slow down and often experience challenges.
This retrograde occurs in Aries, a fire sign that can be impulsive and impatient because it wants to go, go, GO! So we'll feel a "push-pull" quality of wanting to keep pushing forward yet not being able to make much progress because communication and equipment may slow, break down, or pull us back to review past projects or problems.
Prepare now by backing up your computer and other devices and updating software in the first week of March. After that, you'll begin to feel the slowdown and may see issues arise with equipment or interactions with other people.
During the retrograde, allow yourself to slow down. Avoid starting anything new, and don't sign contracts because you won't have all the facts or will miss something critical and have to rework the agreement later.
Instead, focus on anything "re": review, redo, rethink, recycle, reverse, restore, and so on. This is an excellent time to dust off a past project or idea and see what you can make of it. It's also the perfect time to contact people from the past, clean closets, polish current work, or return to anything—or anywhere—you once enjoyed.
Learn more and get all the Mercury retrograde dates for this year (and coming years) in my article, Mercury Retrograde Dates, Advice.
Plan Your Month: Important Dates
This month brings several key dates to watch as you plan your month. Mark your calendar and take action (or rest) as recommended on the dates listed here so your efforts can bring progress in all areas of your life.
March 1: A full Moon in Virgo lights your ninth house of international connections, long distance travel, publishing and publicity, higher education, and philosophy. Something will peak around this time for you, and you may realize you need to improve your study habits, relationships with overseas clients, or how you promote your business. Balance time traveling, exploring, and philosophizing with time for your siblings and neighbors so you feel better connected to your community and well supported in all your adventures and ambitions. This day (and the day before and day after) favor spiritual work: plan time for meditation and prayer. See my article on How To Relieve Stress – Meditate At The Right Time for details.
March 2: Mercury in your third house of siblings forms a harmonious angle with Jupiter in your eleventh house of friends, group events, and charities. Invite your brothers and sisters to a fundraiser, introduce one of them to an eligible friend, or volunteer as a group for a cause you all support.
March 4: The Sun joins with Neptune and Mercury merges with Venus, all in your communication and sibling house. Consider the effect of your words, gestures, and texts on your brothers and sisters. Strive to hold higher spiritual love in your mind when thinking of them and extend that generous impulse to all your communications, with everyone.
March 5 and 6: Mercury and Venus leave Pisces for Aries. Feel your thoughts and emotions begin to shift from introspection to outward action.
March 8: Jupiter goes retrograde until July 10. This giant, optimistic planet entered Scorpio on October 10, 2017, bringing expansion to your house of friendship, volunteering, networking, and clubs. Perhaps you joined an industry association, or you may have made many new friends or endowed a scholarship. With the retrograde, you have four months to review your charitable giving, offer thanks for the opportunity to serve others, and consider changes or improvements if needed.
March 11: Mars makes a helpful angle with Uranus in Aries, while the Sun nods benevolently to Pluto. Taking initiative spiritually through meditation and prayer can help a home or family concern, and your personal power and authority may help you assist a sibling or advance a communication project.
March 13: The Sun in your chatty third house links to Jupiter in your friendship and charity house, inspiring you and your brothers and sisters to help a family friend, give generously to a fundraiser, or combine forces to make new connections for your family business.
March 13 – 17: The Moon enters its balsamic phase, the "dark of the Moon" time before the new Moon. Slow down, review the past month since the new Moon of February 15, and enjoy a bit of daydreaming about what you want to do in the coming month. Find out more about this mysterious monthly time in my Balsamic Moon Phase article. Also, this period is excellent for spiritual work, meditation, and prayer. See my article on How To Relieve Stress – Meditate At The Right Time for details.
March 17: A new Moon in Pisces brings your best time all year to reconnect with cousins, enjoy time with your siblings (or improve relations, if needed), start a novel, or launch a communication campaign. Also, Mars leaves expansive Sagittarius for earthy Capricorn in your personality and body house, giving rocket fuel to your desire to polish your image or improve your character or health and giving you the energy to get a makeover or upgrade your wardrobe, commit to self-improvement, or launch a project meaningful to you.
March 20: The Sun enters Aries, bringing a new astrological month, a new season, the spring equinox (fall equinox in the southern hemisphere), and a new spiritual year. Make time to meditate on this highly significant day and feel the joyful energy of new beginnings as the Sun lights up Aries. This "power day" offers natural energies supporting spiritual work and planning for the year ahead.
March 22: Mercury goes retrograde in Aries. Use your powerful thoughts to overcome impatience and let yourself slow down, spend time at home, visualize a redecorating project, attend to real estate matters, and work on concerns related to your parents. Wait until April 17 or later to sign contracts or start anything new. Get details on making the most of this period in my Mercury Retrograde Dates, Advice article.
March 23 and 24: Venus and the Sun in Aries make difficult alignments with Pluto and Mars in your personality, health, and body house. Your desire to assert your will or focus on a health concern may feel at odds with an influential relative's demands or a parent's needs. Keep a low profile and avoid disputes or making assumptions. If family obligations interfere with a personal project or medical appointments, clear your head before making decisions, and if someone challenges you, listen to their concerns and then disengage for a while before responding.
March 28: Venus links happily with Uranus in Aries. A quirky female relative, perhaps your partner, may brighten your day, and romance at home will feel electric. Listen to hunches about home repairs, decorating, and real estate.
March 30: Venus leaves Aries for Taurus. Love and romance will stir your soul and inspire your creativity. If you want to start a family, Venus will pave the way toward romance and happy conversations with your partner.
March 31: A second full Moon this month arrives, this time in Libra. Something related to your career, a professional honor, or your legacy will peak and give you clarity. This full Moon makes stressful alignments with several planets in your personality and health house as well as the Sun and Mercury in your home and family house. Be cautious with these volatile energies, as hasty speech or actions could affect your job, public image, health, or family relationships. Time with your partner, meetings with an agent or business advisor, and social activities or volunteering that promote peace can act as safety valves to channel these powerful energies constructively. Also, remember that full Moons (and the day before and day after) favor spiritual work, so plan time for meditation and prayer.
As you can see, March is filled with high contrast—and wave after wave of high energies. Use the guidance here to ride this month's waves so you can reach April's shore with pride in how you handled March's challenges and made the most of its many opportunities.
Happy March!
Happy March, Capricorn! I wish you a wonderful month!

Oakland, California (EastBayDaily) — Lonely Planet, the world's #1 travel publisher*, is proud to announce that it is a winner in the first-ever TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice Awards for Travel Favorites. Lonely Planet was overwhelmingly chosen as the "Favorite Travel Guide" by those who matter most – travelers themselves.
The TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice Travel Favorites Awards are voted on by travelers to recognize the brands they love to use on vacation. Surveys were conducted in the United States, United Kingdom, Italy, Spain and France using a panel of over 7,000 TripAdvisor travelers to select a shortlist of brands in each category. Visitors to the TripAdvisor site were then asked to select their favorites from the shortlists.
Lonely Planet, which publishes print guidebooks, ebooks and mobile apps to almost every destination on the planet, was voted as "Favorite Travel Guide" in the United States, United Kingdom, Italy and Spain. Lonely Planet also has a multi-award winning website and publishes phrasebooks and other pictorial and gift titles.
Lonely Planet's monthly magazine has also been named "Favorite Travel Magazine" in the United Kingdom. Recently renamed Lonely Planet Traveller, it was launched in 2008 and is the UK's number one actively-purchased travel title and has attracted an army of loyal subscribers.
Lainey Franks, VP Marketing at Lonely Planet Americas says: "We are thrilled that Lonely Planet was recognized in the Travelers' Choice Awards. Lonely Planet is the #1 travel publisher in the world and we are honored to have such loyal fans passionate about our brand. For almost 40 years, we have helped travelers get to the heart of a place with accurate, informative and trustworthy information."
"We asked the world's largest travel community to tell us what they simply can't travel without, and so our Travelers' Choice Awards for Travel Favorites were born. The valuable feedback from our vast community has enabled us to recognize these favorite brands and we're delighted to award the winners with the prestigious TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice seal of approval," said Barbara Messing, chief marketing officer for TripAdvisor.

The Cape, A Thompson Hotel
About the Hotel
Why We Love This Hotel
- Located on Monuments Beach, a popular surf spot that is good for swimming
- Rooms all have a private terrace with views of the beach and the iconic Cabo Arch
- Guests receive a welcome tequila beverage, and Wi-Fi is free
The Cape, a Thompson Hotel, is the latest addition to the beachfront landscape of Cabo San Lucas, set a few miles east of downtown along mellow Monuments Beach -- a favorite spot among surfers and one of the few in the area where you can swim.
You won't find the rowdy Cabo nightlife here. The contemporary 4-star hotel is best suited for relaxing and enjoying the views, which are pretty spectacular: Every room comes with a private terrace that looks out onto the coastline and iconic Cabo Arch. The secluded beach is accessible via a private staircase, and there are two pools including an infinity pool with a swim-up bar.
There are also great views from The Roof Top, an open-air garden/lounge where guests can sip a craft cocktail overlooking the Bahia San Lucas. James Beard finalist chef Enrique Olvera (of Mexico City's Pujol and New York City's Cosme restaurants) brings traditional Mexican fare to Manta, the highly anticipated seafood restaurant.
Rooms come with one, two or three bedrooms, and some have an outdoor hanging daybed or private plunge pool. Locally handcrafted furniture gives the hotel a mid-century modern feel with walls peppered with originals from local artists. Wi-Fi is complimentary.

The winter storm that hit WNY in late November was unprecedented in its reach and its impact on our program. Never before has Meals on Wheels for WNY been so severely impacted by a storm as we were this November.
The travel bans and unsafe conditions made it impossible for us to get to our commissary – which is located in the heart of South Buffalo – during the first part of the storm. Once we did open to complete emergency service and weekend deliveries, the storm clean-up effort and continued hazardous travel conditions made it challenging for us to deliver those emergency meals in many areas of our footprint.
We could not have made it through this difficult storm and successfully served those with a critical need without the tremendous support of the Erie County Executive's Office, City of Buffalo Mayor's Office, the Mayor's Citizen Preparedness Team, Erie County Sheriff's, Buffalo Police Department's SWAT team, National Guard and the Community Action Organization, to say nothing of tireless hours put in by our staff and our food vendor, Bateman Senior Meals.
During the storm, Meals on Wheels used the majority of our "blizzard boxes" – boxes of shelf stable foods that are delivered to vulnerable clients at the beginning of winter in the event of program closures. We also prepared extra four-meal and six-meal units during the peak of the emergency for delivery to our homebound clients and other vulnerable snowbound neighbors throughout the County.
Now that the storm is passed, we need to re-stock and supply our commissary and our emergency supplies. The community's continued support is necessary and appreciated. We are currently accepting donations at our website – www.mealsonwheelswny.org – and at 100 James E. Casey Drive, Buffalo, NY 14206. We also need to repair our loading dock, which was severely damaged by the storm. All told, the financial impact on Meals on Wheels related to the storm will be approximately $30,000 – or the equivalent of almost 5500 meals and ancillary services.
Your support of our work and efforts to check on your neighbors is greatly appreciated! Thank you for helping Meals on Wheels serve the most vulnerable members of our community.

Woah, guys. Your responses were over the top this week both in quantity and quality. A lot of hilarious comments, believe me. We even had one comment - an anonymous one - that indicated the photo wasn't funny and should be taken down. This person was quite perturbed. Now there's validation for ya. PPP really is off the wall and no topic is taboo around here!
We're going to expand our honourable mentions this week because there were so many good ones. Now, where should we start?
At this year's science fair, young Eric introduced man's newest travelling companion, Shrinkie, the first portable lap doll. "It's Shrinkie, it's Shrinkie, man's first portable doll. It's Shrinkie, it's Shrinkie the most wonderful doll of them all."
And Tom was never wing-man for Tiger Woods again!
Amazingly, her face distracts you from her ridiculously huge left hand.
Moooooog finally convinces his sister to go to the prom with him.
Well there goes the old adage about 'opposites attract'.
Who's Sorry Now!
A new reality show featuring survivors of a Utah cult
Romance blooms at the Ozark Mountain Banjo Festival
But the biggest winner, or loser depending on your point of view, had to be:
You think you've got a small head, you should see the one in my pants.
Ha, ha, good one. Way to go Madge. You were head and shoulders above the rest. Heh, heh. Congrats, girl. You be hangin' with the dufus this week. Wanna go see a movie or sumpin'? I think there's a revival of Deliverance down at the Mayfair this weekend.
And we've got a Golden Clothespin recipient this week. That's where we award the best comment ABOUT a comment. In response to our anonymous admirer telling us we shouldn't make fun of someone with a disease or deformity, Chris@Knucklehead responded:
Who the hell are you calling deformed? You insensitive ASSHOLE!
Which all goes to show that deformity is in the eye of the beholder. Or something like that.
And thanks to all for your weird and whacky comments. They were up (or down, and you know who you are) to your usual standards and didn't disappoint. Look forward to seeing you all back here next week.

We Pride Ourself On Having The Best Bed Bug Exterminators
Recently, we've seen a rather significant increase in the quantity of bed bug problems in the area.
We are not exactly sure why there's a surge of bed bugs in Indy, but common causes tend to be more foreign traveling the buying and selling of second-hand items, as well as areas where homes are built close together.
The thought of bed bugs in your house is likely a very unsettling thought. You will know if they are present; there really is no denying them if you come across evidence of an active infestation. They suck your blood while you sleep and use a numbing agent in their saliva to almost always go undetected while feeding. The area in which you were feasted upon could likely swell and will usually itch.
They are great at staying concealed so you may not notice them for a while. Small crevices in your home or property are perfect for these external parasites to conceal themselves until you are fast asleep at night when they emerge to seek food. It's rather common for them to go unnoticed until a person starts getting eaten up while they sleep. If you start noticing small fecal blotches or blood smudges on your bedsheets, there is a great chance it's fromthese nasty creatures and you need to contact our professionals at (317) 759-2255 and schedule an appointment.
It will certainly be difficult to have some bed bugs in your room since this is one of the pests that can cause serious health problems to the family. The worst thing here is that they are incredibly tough to find and remove without the help of a specialist. Even if you find where they are lurking, there will not be any guarantee that it's the only place that was infested. They are tricky so if you will not be able to deal with the root problem, they will keep on returning. You could certainly find a bed bug exterminator to deal with all this issue.
We already understand that bed bug removal is a task best done by the specialists, but most people claim that they could already do this by themselves so they don't need to spend extra money. You could do this by yourself, but there'll be no guarantee that you can remove the bugs in your house. You might be able to cope with it temporarily, but without the intervention of a specialist bug exterminator, you can't permanently resolve this bug issue. If you really want to do this by yourself, we can offer you some great suggestions on how you could take care of these bed bugs while you are trying to find a specialist that will help you.
You cannot begin dealing with the them unless you get rid of the clutter in the infected area so make certain that you do this first before anything else. You should take away the stuffed animals, bed sheets, linen and more and you should place them in a plastic for laundering. Never put these items in another room or outside because they're probably infested by bed bugs as well.
Right after removing the clutter, you should begin cleaning these sheets and linen because it is possible that bed bugs are already crawling on these items. The best thing to do is to launder them in hot water with a minimum heat of 120 degrees Fahrenheit. You could also heat your garments with the use of a clothes dryer.
This is extremely essential, especially if the room is already infested. If you'll begin dismantling the bed frames once you some signs of infestations, you could prevent the bugs from spreading to the other locations. The hiding places are often located in the bed frames so you may easily deal with the main problem in your area. It will not totally stop them from coming to your room, but you may at least stop them temporarily.
The best thing that you could do is to stand up the box spring, use a flashlight through the gauze fabric and look for the little bugs. If the fabric is already torn through, get rid of the fabric and prepare your spray.
Did you think that these they will only stay in the bed? This is usually a big mistake because once the room is infested by the bed bugs, they will begin crawling to different places inside the room and make their breeding grounds. This means that their target is the dresser drawers so you have to clean them and eliminate the clothes. Like what you did with the bed sheets, the clothes should be placed in a plastic and you have to clean them separately. You must never use insecticides while the clothes are still inside the drawers so you have to take them out first and inspect the drawers.
After dealing with certain areas that might be infested, your next task is to completely clean the area or room where the infestation happened. This is usually a complete clean because there is a chance that the bed bugs are crawling in other places in the room. You should use a scrub when you are cleaning the infested areas with a stiff brush to help disengage the eggs. You should vacuum inside the room broadly and use the hose attachment for the cracks and crevices on the furniture and walls. You need to clean everything appropriately to be certain that the bed bugs will probably be taken away from the area totally.
One of the misconceptions of household owners is that you can treat for these blood suckers without a specialist and they could use DIY techniques to remove them. There are simple procedures that you could think about, but there'll be no assurance that it will be totally removed.
Do you wish to take care of bed bugs again and again just because you don't wish to hire an exterminator? These experts already know what they must do and they also have the experience and knowledge to deal with the issue. They can easily find the area where the pests are living and they can get rid of them totally to prevent another infestation in your house.
If you think that you cannot do this by yourself, the next thing that you must do is to find an exterminator which can help you get rid of these pests. You cannot simply hire anybody without knowing if they can give the services that you'll require.
Bed bug treatments would require proper knowledge and experience so you need to be sure that these folks are specialists. It is extremely easy to claim that you are actually a professional to ensure that you will ask them for proof.
It is a fact that time is incredibly essential when you cope with bed bugs and you don't have a lot of time to begin from scratch and search for exterminators in the area. A very important thing to do is to speed up the process and the technique to do this is to request referrals from your friends and relatives. They might refer someone that can help you with this. If they can recommend someone, it will likely be easier for you to locate a good exterminator.
Bed bugs are bothersome and they could also cause health problems to your whole family so if you see some signs of bed bugs, you will need to cope with them immediately before they infest your house. They can only be eradicated by professionals so if you'd like to find the best one, call us today at (317) 759-2255 and we will be there to assist you with bed bug problem

Tarana Burke responds to Tony Robbins' claims that the Me Too movement is about gaining significance.
3. Survivors are not complicit in their own abuse. Speaking our truth is part of healing not a ploy to gain 'significance' - bc when does that even HAPPEN?!
4. Physical intimidation can be a form or harassment. Rewatch that video and then watch your step homie.
Peter Murphy explains why Tony Robbins is engaging in bullying behavior and mischaracterizing the Me Too movement.
Tony Robbins is so in the wrong here with his overt physical intimidation & verbal bullying tactics. The MeToo movement isn't trying to "get significance," it's pursuing justice & cultural change. MeToo isn't "attacking" someone else, it's holding perpetrators accountable.
Tarana Burke explains why claiming that survivors are "reveling in victimhood" is a misguided notion; the Me Too movement is about agency, providing resources and proactive change.
This movement is about making sure survivors have the resources to heal AFTER they've said #metoo, it's about galvanizing a global community or survivors and advocates to do the work of interrupting sexual violence. It's about protecting folks' human dignity at all cost.
Founder of the Me Too movement Tarana Burke responds to Tony Robbins' tone-deaf comments about the movement in a recent seminar.
If you talk to more SURVIVORS and less sexist businessmen maybe you'll understand what we want. We want safety. We want healing. We want accountability. We want closure. We want to live a life free from shame.
A clinical psychologist exposes the allure of the charismatic energy vampire or psychic vampire who sucks your energy dry.
At first glance, energy vampires can seem highly attractive. They often are good-looking, bold, flamboyant or intelligent, and may appear to have a high opinion of you as indicated by their flattering attention. Drawing you into their inner circle may seem like just the boost you need in your usually drab work environment. However, be aware that they are "grooming" you — setting you up to exploit you in whichever way best suits their purposes later.
The reason that Harry Potter can withstand Voldemort is that he's got a piece of him. He's been touched by it. The way you keep psychopaths at bay is to develop the inner psychopath so you know one when you see one. That's a voluntary thing, a set of tools you have at your disposal, which is a full knowledge of evil.
A therapist exposes the horrific and insidious toll relationships with narcissists take on their victims.
Understandably, the fear, distress, confusion, inner turmoil, and chaos that victims experience leave them "walking on eggshells" in order to avoid further conflict with the narcissist. The effect on the victim over time can be very crippling indeed. I liken narcissistic abuse to a parasitic worm that manages to penetrate under the skin, where it is out of the sight of witnessing eyes, but is free to injure or consume its host slowly, leaving trauma or disease in its wake.
A psychologist describes how narcissists charm and ensnare their victims, only to use and discard them.

Hello everyone! After an extended holiday break, the I Ctrl Shift team is back with new ideas for a new year. Personally I have been busy finishing school projects, which interestingly here in England (or at least at my Uni) are not due until you have begun the next semester. This led to a small amount of stress during my holiday Euro-trip, where I did no work on my papers. Luckily Europe is filled with delicious food, as well as wine and beer.
I did however get my papers handed in on time, along with my fellow social marketing colleagues. One of them was focused on social marketing, which asked us to "Critically evaluate the evolution of social marketing from Kotler and Zaltman's 1971 definition through to modern-day theory and practice". Such a broad question leaves a lot of room for interpretation, and of course each individual answered the question in a different way. In order to showcase the different perspectives, and to kick off 2016, I Ctrl Shift has decided to step back into the past this month and present some different views on this important question. So let's start with a quick origin story of social marketing.
As a social marketing specialist in general marketing classes, one of the many things I find interesting is when professors call marketing a young field. If marketing is young, then social marketing is a baby. The idea of marketing social benefits was first introduced by Wiebe in the 1950s, when he famously asked:
"Why can't you sell brotherhood like you sell soap?".
-Wiebe, 1951
However, it wasn't until the 1970s that the term social marketing was coined by Kotler and & Zaltman, and given a definition:
"Social Marketing is the design, implementation, and control of programs calculated to influence the acceptability of social ideas and involving considerations of product planning, pricing, communication, distribution and marketing research."
-Kotler & Zaltman, 1971
Andreasen (2003) is a major critic of this original definition, arguing that the phrasing encourages a focus on education and awareness. This focus on education and awareness is still found today in practice, though the academic field of social marketing had developed a very clear focus on behaviour change as early as the 1980s. This focus on behaviour change using marketing principles is the key aspect of social marketing as it exists today.
Through the years, many individuals added new definitions as circumstances changed. Today, there is a unified definition of social marketing. Or at least it is endorsed by the International Social Marketing Association, the European Social Marketing Association and the Australian Association of Social Marketing:
Social Marketing seeks to develop and integrate marketing concepts with other approaches to influence behaviours that benefit individuals and communities for the greater social good.Social Marketing practice is guided by ethical principles. It seeks to integrate research, best practice, theory, audience and partnership insight, to inform the delivery of competition sensitive and segmented social change programmes that are effective, efficient, equitable and sustainable.
However like many things in academia, there are still individuals who disagree with certain aspects of this definition. Social marketing is viewed differently by different people, with individuals divided on what it should include, and where it should go in the future. Jeff French (2015) recognizes that the history of social marketing has not been perfectly linear, but has been shaped by conflicting definitions and differing opinions. It has grown differently in different countries and within sub-fields.
This month, we will review the evolution of social marketing from different perspectives. We look at the interplay between social marketing academics and practice. As an environmental nerd, I will of course review the development of social marketing for environmental issues. Finally, we will end by looking towards the future, with the role of social media and technology in social marketing.
Alison Carlyle is an environmental enthusiast studying social marketing at the University of Brighton in England. She is currently looking for post-grad opportunities, so if you know of any reach out to her so she can figure out what country she should live in. Follow her on Twitter or LinkIn with her.

Scotland's Marine Economic Statistics
An experimental statistics publication from the Scottish Government.
In 2017 the Scottish marine economy generated £5.2 billion Gross Value Added (GVA), up 18% from the 2016 value, and employed 74,500 people – down 2%.
The statistics present a time series of GVA, turnover and employment for industrial categories defined as part of the marine economy. The data is provided for 2008 to 2017.
The statistics provide a detailed picture of trends and geographic distribution of the contributions of marine economic sectors. They are largely based on data from the Scottish Annual Business Survey, supplemented by separate fishing and aquaculture data. The statistics found:
- Between 2016 and 2017 the Scottish marine sector GVA increased by 18% from £4.41 billion in 2016 to £5.22 billion in 2017 (adjusted to 2017 prices). Several sectors contributed to this increase including Aquaculture, which doubled GVA contribution from £221 million to £436 million and Shipbuilding which almost trebled from £209 million to £572 million. GVA from other industry sectors also increased.
- Between 2016 and 2017 employment in the Scottish marine sector fell by 2% from 76,000 to 74,500 (headcount). This fall was mainly driven by a drop in employment in the oil and gas support sector, from 19,700 to 17,800.
- Support services for the oil and gas sector were the biggest contributor to the marine economy in terms of GVA (£2.2 billion, 42% of the marine economy). Note that oil and gas extraction is not included in these figures to align with those provided by the onshore values in the National Accounts for Scotland.
- Marine tourism was the biggest contributor to employment in 2017, contributing 38% of the employment (28,300 headcount) and 11% of the GVA (£594 million).
- Geographically, Aberdeen City accounted for 39% of the marine economy's GVA for 2017, with Aberdeenshire the next highest with 18%. This highlights a strong concentration of the marine economy in the North East of Scotland, linked to the location of oil and gas services, commercial fishing and fish processing industries.
All of the statistics presented relate only to the direct economic contributions of the sectors to Scotland's economy and not to the indirect contributions that arise from their wider supply chains.
The report is based on regularly available, validated economic sources. After the first edition users were consulted for their views on the content and format of the publication. While they were broadly very happy with the publication, there were other sectors that contribute to the marine economy, such as offshore renewable energy, that they would have liked to see. Marine Scotland is exploring how to include marine renewable energy and other industries in future publications.
The full statistical publication contains economic statistics on industries classified as part of the marine economy. It helps to establish the value of the marine economy to Scotland. Most of the staistics are sourced from the Scottish Annual Business Statistics 2017 published in June 2019, supplemented by Marine Scotland statistics on sea fisheries and aquaculture and the Seafish Economics of the UK Fishing Fleet
The figures released are classed as Experimental Statistics though they were produced in accordance with professional standards set out in the Code of Practice for Official Statistics.

How much do you trust me? Because I found this book delightfully enjoyable, and I think you would too.
Netgalley was so kind as to supply me with an ebook of Lumière, and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised to find this book so engaging.
Eyelet Elsworth is a young lady who suffers from something which is criminal in her world: madness. She lost her father many years ago, after he failed to cure her with his invention, The Illuminator. When Eyelet unexpectedly loses her mother, she flees the city and is pursued. As she flees, she stumbles upon the invention that her father sold all those years ago, and clings on to it when she sees it being stolen. Thus she catapults herself into Urlick's life as he flees through the Vapour ridden forest to his hide-out. Urlick bears his own burdens, including one that is much more visible than Eyelet's seizures: He is an albino who also bears a significant birthmark on his face. These two characters, one marred on the inside, the other on the outside, form an unlikely pair, but provide the reader with a predictable, yet far from disappointing, romance. As the story advances, the two characters learn to trust each other and join forces in their search for a way to cure themselves of their burdens.
While there were certain aspects of the book that I thought could have been done better (Eyelet's grief and hatred over her parents' death, and the sexual attraction between the two MCs), I overall found the read fast paced and well plotted. There is a cast of likable minor characters, as well as formidable foes, but the characters were a little bit cut and dry, evil or good. Personally I prefer characters who are a little more ambiguous.
I wasn't expecting the steampunk genre, for it didn't seem to come up in the book description I read, but it felt an almost natural expansion of the story. The setting was used well, with unique places and ideas, such as the Embers and the Vapors. All of these were not just strange things, but places and things which factored directly into the plot in a concrete, terrifying, and masterful way.
Garlick is a pro at shaping her world and using it to advance the plot, as well as using nearly every character she introduces for important purposes. Although the MC Eyelet can be a little annoying at times, and perhaps a little weak, she does come through as a strong female character, one who is determined to get her way. She and Urlick combine to create a likable force to be reckoned with, two people that are stronger together rather than apart.
Rating: 4/5 stars

This blog title is all wrong…
This blog title is all wrong…it leaves out the word "integration", as in Rolfing Structural and Movement Integration. As Robert Schleip has shown in his article on his website, http://www.somatics.de, there is no such thing as a separate "structure' and a separate "movement".
Fascial plasticity – a new neurobiological explanation(fulltext version) R.Schleip
We'll see if this link can get you to this complex and fascinating website article which stands separatism on its duality-ridden ears, and gives new life to some of Ida Rolf's old working ideas. It was written by Schleip for a certain level of knowledge of anatomy and physiology for the Journal of Bodywork and Movement Therapies.
When Rolf made her distinctions about working with human body, she had some ideas that have stood the test of time, one being, "put it in the right place and call for movement". If you can get through this article, you will learn the current thoughts about how the body can be changed in structure/movement, and why the "call for movement" is important to get past the idea of changing the connective tissue or fascia in a mechanical way.
Ida Rolf made her observations on rules of order which she perceived mostly without attribution to authorities. It is great to have Robert Schleip around to bring his essay powers to the facts as they currently exist about Rolfing and work with changing the structure/movement. Adding the word "integration" made it true for Ida Rolf, and now Schleip is speculating with evidence about how that happens.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing
so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining flavopiridol with irinotecan
in treating patients who have locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors.
- Determine the maximum tolerated dose of flavopiridol when combined with irinotecan in
patients with advanced solid tumors.
- Determine the clinical pharmacokinetics of this regimen, as well as the plasma levels
of the active metabolite SN-38 and metabolic product SN-38 glucuronide in these
- Determine, in a preliminary manner, the therapeutic activity of this regimen in these
- Determine the role of p21 relative to treatment response and apoptosis in these
patients treated with this regimen.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation, open-label, non-randomized study of flavopiridol.
Patients receive irinotecan IV over 30 minutes followed 7 hours later by flavopiridol IV
over 1 hour on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Treatment continues every 6 weeks for a minimum of 2
courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. During the first
week of the second course, patients receive flavopiridol alone on day 1 and irinotecan alone
on day 2.
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of flavopiridol until the maximum tolerated
dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 or more
of 6 patients in the initial cohort experience dose limiting toxicity during the first
course of treatment. An additional 10 patients are treated at the MTD.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 44-50 patients will be accrued for this study within 1 year.
- Histologically proven locally advanced or metastatic solid tumor that is refractory
to standard therapy or for which no standard therapy exists
- Eligible for treatment at the maximum tolerated dose only if disease accessible for
tissue biopsy by Tru-Cut, CT guidance, or endoscopy
- Pleural effusions or abdominal ascites do not constitute adequate tissue for
- No known CNS metastasis or primary CNS tumor

I can't really believe that September 2018 is upon us already. The month of my birthday (yay!) and the month when my countdown to Christmas really begins! This summer seemed like it started a little late but the current weather in Malta suggests that it'll be here for a while longer to make up for it!
Average Malta Temperature in September
The average temperature in Malta in September is 28°C during the day and 20°C during the evenings. August was around 5°C hotter than the usual average and September 2018 weather in Malta is set to follow the same trend. With temperatures still hitting the early 30s and humidity of way over 60% you're looking at another hot month.
September Weather
In general, one can expect a few days of rain in September. We had some unexpected showers in August so either we'll end up dry as a bone this month or else we'll get our 3 damp days and it'll be the wettest summer for a while! Summer showers in Malta are nothing much to worry about. Expect a sudden shower, out of nowhere. It'll be torrential but it'll be over before you even find somewhere to run for cover. Give the streets 20 mins to drain (as they tend to flood) and it'll be back to 30+°C and sunny again.
September 2018 Day Temperature
The daytime temperatures in Malta for September 2018 are set to fall slightly from that hot, hot August. It will sit slightly more comfortably around the 28 – 31°C mark, however
September 2018 Evening Temperature
The good news is that the evening temperatures in Malta in 2018 have already started to fall and are now much more enjoyable. It's still warm and still a little sticky but with a gentle breeze and temperatures in the low 20s, around 23 – 25°C, making it much more bearable. In September, if you're not uber sensitive to the heat, you'll probably be able to sleep with just a fan on, rather than the AC, especially towards the end of the month.
