Magnitude-6.9 quake jolts Hawaii's Big Island near where volcano is erupting
PAHOA, Hawaii (AP) — A second large earthquake of magnitude-6.9 struck Friday afternoon on Hawaii's Big Island near where a volcanic eruption has forced residents to evacuate their rural homes, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
The earthquake hit about 12:33 p.m. Friday and was centered near the south flank of Kilauea volcano.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center says the quake wasn't strong enough to cause a tsunami. No tsunami threat or advisory was put in place.
The state transportation department says on Twitter that no damage has been reported to roads.
Before the quake, Hawaii County Civil Defense said a new vent opened near an intersection. There is no activity at a geothermal power plant, which has been taken offline.
The 6.9 quake came after a magnitude-5.4 earthquake was reported on Hawaii's Big Island.
Hawaii County Civil Defense says Friday's earthquake was centered near the south flank of Kilauea volcano. Officials say there's no tsunami threat to the Big Island.
After a week of earthquakes and warning, an eruption began Thursday and continued Friday, with lava spurting from three volcanic vents.
Acting Mayor Wil Okabe says officials are trying to confirm a fourth vent.
He says two homes have burned. He says one owner lives on the U.S. mainland and officials are trying to find the owner of the second home, who is likely in a shelter. Officials are trying to confirm the extent of the damage, but Okabe says the houses likely burned completely.
The Kilauea volcano sent more lava into Hawaii communities Friday, a day after forcing more than 1,500 people to flee their rural homes, and authorities detected high levels of sulfur gas that could threaten elderly people and those with breathing problems.
The eruption that began with lava flying into the sky from a crack in a road persisted with reports of molten rock spurting from several volcanic vents. Neighborhoods downhill from the vents were at risk of being covered up. At least two homes were destroyed, officials said.
Julie Woolsey lives on a street where a vent opened up and channeled lava to within 1,000 yards (914 meters) of her house. When it appeared, she freed her chickens, loaded her dogs into her truck and evacuated with her daughter and grandson.
"We knew we were building on an active volcano," she said, recalling how she purchased the lot on the Big Island for $35,000 more than a decade ago after living on Maui became too expensive. But she thought the danger from lava was a remote possibility.
"You can't really predict what Pele is going to do," she said, referring to the Hawaiian volcano goddess. "It's hard to keep up. We're hoping our house doesn't burn down."
The community of Leilani Estates near the town of Pahoa appeared to be in the greatest danger. Authorities also ordered an evacuation of Lanipuna Gardens, a smaller, more rural subdivision directly to the east. But scientists said new vents could form, and it was impossible to know where.
Civil defense officials cautioned the public about high levels of sulfur dioxide near the volcano and urged vulnerable people to leave immediately. Exposure to the gas can cause irritation or burns, sore throats, runny noses, burning eyes and coughing.
Maija Stenback began to get nervous when she noticed cracks in the streets near her home. On Thursday, she shot video of the lava as it bubbled and splattered across a street about six blocks from her house.
"You can feel it all the way into the core of your being," she said. "It's just that roaring and unbelievable power of the lava bubbling up and spitting up into the air."
Stenback, her daughter and grandchildren packed as much as they could into their car. The two kids were each allowed to select three toys to take before the family left for a friend's home about a 30-minute drive away.
"I have lived through a lot of lava flows here, but never this close before," Stenback said.
HAWAII VOLCANOES NATIONAL PARK, HI - MAY 3: In this handout photo provided by the U.S. Geological Survey, a fissure forms on the west flank of the Puu Oo crater on Hawaii's Kilauea volcano on May 3, 2018 in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The governo
There were no immediate reports of injuries. At least 100 people were staying in shelters Friday, with many more evacuees believed to be with relatives and friends.
The Hawaii governor activated the National Guard to help with evacuations and provide security for properties that were abandoned when residents fled to safety.
Kilauea has erupted periodically for decades, and scientists said they have no way of predicting how long the eruption will continue.
A key factor will be whether a magma reservoir at the summit starts to drain in response to the eruption, which has not happened yet, said Asta Miklius, a geophysicist with the U.S. Geological Survey's Hawaiian Volcano Observatory.
"There is quite a bit of magma in the system. . It won't be just an hours-long eruption probably, but how long it will last will depend on whether the summit magma reservoir gets involved. And so we are watching that very, very closely," Miklius said.
After a week of earthquakes, authorities had warned residents to be prepared to evacuate because an eruption would give little warning.
Henry Calio said the first sign that something might be wrong happened when cracks emerged in the driveway of his home in Leilani Estates. His wife, Stella, then received a call from an official who told them to get out immediately. They feared they might lose the house.
"This is our retirement dream," Henry Calio said.
Kilauea's Puu Oo crater floor began to collapse Monday, triggering the earthquakes and pushing the lava into new underground chambers. The collapse caused magma to push more than 10 miles (16 kilometers) downslope toward the populated southeast coastline of the island.
The magma later crossed under Highway 130, which leads to a popular volcano access point. Authorities closed the area to visitors and ordered private tour companies to stop taking people into the region.
Over the decades, most of Kilauea's activity has been nonexplosive, but a 1924 eruption spewed ash and 10-ton (9-metric ton) rocks into the sky and killed one person.
A 1983 eruption resulted in lava fountains soaring over 1,500 feet (457 meters) into the sky. Since then, the lava flow has buried dozens of square miles of land and destroyed many homes.

Dubai launches robot policemen
The Dubai Police is welcoming the latest memeber to its squad today with the introduction of the world's first autonomous "Robocop". With no need for a visa, medical insurance or 22-days of annual leave, the 170cm-tall officer is ready to engage with Dubai's residents and millions of tourists.
After previously rolling out prototypes, the first robot policeman has been introduced at the opening of the country's Gulf Information Security Expox (GISEC) at the Dubai World Trade Centre.
Despite the film-referencing name, the robots look more like a mix between R2D2 and C3PO than actual Robocop.
The Chinese-built andriod is 1.7m tall and can is equipped with an "emotion detector" that allows it to recognise gestures and hand signals from up to 1.5m away.
The Robocop can also detect a person's emotions and facial expressions – whether the individual is happy, sad, or smiling - and has the ability to change his expression and greetings accordingly to put people at ease.
When patrolling the streets, the Robocop which harnesses Internet of Things, Artificial Intelligence and the latest smart technologies, can use its facial recognition software to help police officers identify and catch offenders, as well as broadcast live video feeds.
The city of Dubai continues to invest heavily in positioning itself as a world leader in 'smart city' technology. The enrollment of E-Patrol Robot Sheriff will see it among one of the first cities to introduce robots to serve for public convenience, order and safety.
Brigadier Abdullah Bin Sultan, Director of the Future Shaping Centre of Dubai Police, said: "We are looking to have more robots in future to handle policing. By 2030, we are keen to make robots around 25 percent of the total police force,"
This is not the UAE's first flirtation with a science-fiction future, as the Emirates have been open about testing prototypes of flying taxis, and high-speed hyperloops between Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
Dubai's police robots are expected to be part of wider implementation of smart police mechanisms which will include smart police stations and further development of artificial intelligence to keep the city safe in the near future.

Gosh… it's a year already?!
I remember this like it was yesterday… Sitting in the classroom and talking with my roommate at the time about life and she goes… "How about you start a blog? I think it'll be a good idea to start one."
For some odd reason, a light bud turned on with tons of ideas and it just went from there.
I may not be the best blogger out there, I still have my struggles with this blogging this. Sometimes, it's not all gravy. Sometimes, I just want to give it all up but then I remember why I started.
Long story short, I haven't been blogging as much as I want to because…I'll be graduating college this year and God knows, I'm so ready to graduate! I wanted to take some time out to figure out what I want to achieve in life and with loads of school work, managing to focus on my school work, and also trying out this whole vlogging/blogging thing. It's really tough. It's not all as easy as it seems. But on the brighter note, that's why time management is very important. End of story.
What will you expect from me?
My goal is to really be involve and to connect with you all. With that being said, I'm going to push myself to be more consistent with FearlessKryss blog posts. I am very horrible with time management as I stated a thousand of times. We've all been there. There will be more videos in the near future as well as improvements to the website.
Also, what did you guys think about the whole short videos I did in my last 2 posts?
Did you enjoy it? What could I done differently?
I will say this journey has been quite amazing. I've met with some amazing bloggers and to hear their stories inspires me and I want to inspire you all by saying…
Anything is possible.
P.S There will be additional blog post to this one because I'll be celebrating my 1 year mark as a blogger! I will vlog and blog on this special event with all my family and friends! I can't wait for you all to see! ❤

Citizen Journalists: One weekend a month, two weeks a year
- December 5th, 2006
- Posted in Life . Neato . Technology
- Write comment
Reports of my death, yadda yadda yadda.
I'm alive. My friends are starting to ask where I've disappeared to, so I thought I'd at least post something. I've had ideas for things to write, but I've pretty much been too tired or lazy to start writing about them.
I did read something interesting today, though: Apparently, Yahoo! and the Reuters news agency have partnered up with a new service called You Witness News. It's a service that lets citizens upload photographs of news events and get paid to have them published. Say, for example, that you're present at a political demonstration and take pictures of a person giving a speech. You could be paid to have those photos published. Think of it like the ultimate freelancing gig.
Naturally, the "professional" news outlets are decrying this. I can only assume that they feel that this "cheapens" their own profession because now any joe schmo with a camera could get paid for what they're worked hard for. You know what my advice to these professionals is?
Deal with it.
As a former student journalist myself, I'm firmly of the opinion that journalism has changed subtly but significantly over the last several years and with the Internet has grown into a different beast altogether. It's only through its evolution and ultimate re-emergence as a new form of media that it will be able to survive. Journalists had felt for years that blogs weren't true journalism either—that is, until they needed to start citing blogs as news sources. Then it suited them just fine. Now, even the news organizations have blogs.
So how is this any different? This is just another extension of "Web two-point-oh." It's another means to get the community involved in what happens around them. I don't really see how getting the general public more involved in the world around them is in any way a bad thing.
Now, I'm not suggesting that any person with a cameraphone can suddenly be the next Pulitzer winner. But even point-and-click digital cameras are getting to the point where they can take print-quality photos (or, hell, near-print-quality at any rate) without a second thought. And sure, most of what they take is going to be crap. But that's really no different than professional photographers. 95% of what they take is crap, too, but professionals know what the trick to true greatness in a photo is: timing. They take and take and take and take photos until they manage to snap that perfect shot. It's only a matter of time before the ordinary joes can do it too.
Hell, maybe this will even increase competition in the journalism industry. At least by paying these citizen journalists, they're creating demand. Maybe we'll ultimately see better journalism come out of this.
…Or maybe we'll just see more paparazzi. I haven't decided yet.

Sports massage involves the manipulation and mobilisation of muscles and soft tissues for pain relief, muscle repair, health maintenance and injury prevention. Many people assume that sports massage is only for people that regularly practice sport, but it also works wonders in helping inactive people release painful tension and recover flexibility & movement. It is ideal for sudden injury such as a hamstring strain or shoulder injury and also for long-term injury such as neck or low back pain.
A sports massage will:
Prolong your ability to participate in all modes of activity
Improve your sporting performance
Lessen the likelihood of injury
Treat & rehabilitate existing injuries
What conditions can it treat?
Sports massage was originally designed for athletes; however it has proven to be extremely effective in treating chronic pain problems such as stiff necks, strained or twisted shoulder muscles, and lower back stiffness or pain. It is also highly beneficial in reducing pain and discomfort in conditions such as whiplash, after a fall or an injury.
What should I expect during a sports massage?
Our highly trained therapists may use their hands, fingertips, knuckles even elbows, to effectively release areas of tension. A sports massage will be more focused on a specific or problematic area in your body. On occasion you may be asked to take a deep breath to help you to relax.
This deeper style of massage may sometimes cause some soreness during, or in the days following the massage. This is simply the muscles releasing stored tension and toxins and will fade within a few days.

Deep tissue massage will:
Relax stiff muscles to restore pain free movement
Reduce muscle tension and chronic pain
Relieve stress
Un-stick tight muscles and free up creaky joints

Pregnancy causes your body to undergo numerous changes and your body will spend the entire pregnancy adapting accordingly. Pregnant women can often feel a lot of pressure when they carry a baby, as they are suddenly responsible for the lives and health of two people. This can result in unnecessary feelings of stress and worry. During pregnancy, women need support as they try to feel 'normal' while a new life grows inside them.
What conditions can it treat?
Regular massage sessions throughout pregnancy are a great way to relieve any problematic physical symptoms of pregnancy. It works to support your vitality and overall health.
As your body goes through many changes with pregnancy, some women find that these alterations can cause pain. Massage can help to reduce this problem by doing the following:
Reduce fluid retention
Naturally decrease gas, heartburn, indigestion, and constipation
Ease cramps
Diminish headaches
Moderate swelling
Lessen varicose veins
Relieve aches in muscles and joints
"Massage is very effective in treating fatigue and stressing during pregnancy, boosting your energy levels and helping you look and feel at your best"
What should I expect during a session?
Pillows and cushions are often used during a massage for support. You may also prefer to lie on your side or use our special pregnancy massage cushion. Our pregnancy massage therapists will work with you to ensure you comfort at all times.
You can also speak to your massage therapist about what you can do at home to improve your comfort. Learn how to use cushions and pillows to support painful areas and find out about posture, breathing techniques, and appropriate exercises as well.
Postnatal Massage
A postnatal massage is a great way to relieve the tension that can build up during pregnancy and ultimately during the birthing process. It is important to look after yourself after the baby arrives as well as while you are pregnant. Massage is also a great way to help you to deal with the stress and physical demands of caring for a newborn.

Manual Lymph Drainage is a gentle type therapy used to drain excess fluid from the body and improve the overall functioning of the lymphatic (immune) system.
What Conditions can it treat?
Manual Lymph Drainage is most commonly used to treat Lymphedema. Lymphoedema is a swelling of tissue due to blockage or absence of lymph drainage channels. It can also assist in the successful healing of bone breaks, torn ligaments, sprains, swollen legs and ankles, and headaches.
What to Expect during MLD?
MLD is applied in gentle strokes towards the heart. Your therapist will gently massage you in the direction of lymph flow in order to unblock any obstructed lymph vessels, and allow lymph flow to transport waste from the body freely, resulting in a general detoxification of the system.

Clinton-Trump fireworks rock American politics back to the 1990s
Elections may be about the future, but this campaign keeps flashing back to the 1990s.
Democrat Hillary Clinton likes to play up the economic boom of the latter part of that decade, when spouse Bill was president. She said if she wins he'd be an in-house jobs czar "in charge of revitalizing the economy."
She said he "knows how to do it."
Never mind that the tech bubble burst at the tail end of his tenure, cutting employment. And forget that critics left and right blame different Clinton-era policies for the serious recession seven years later.
To show her likely opponent Donald Trump isn't such a great businessman, candidate Clinton cites the bankruptcies of four of his entities. The most famous, involving Trump's Taj Mahal in Atlantic City, occurred in 1991; the next, the Trump Plaza Hotel in Atlantic City, went down the drain in 1992.
For his part, Republican Trump reaches back to the 1990s to exhume some vintage Clinton controversies.
A new Trump video uses recordings of interviews with women describing their willing or allegedly coerced encounters with the ex-president — Monica Lewinsky, Kathleen Willey and Juanita Broaddrick.
The words "Here we go again" then appear on the screen — with audio of laughter from Hillary Clinton, whom Trump calls an enabler.
But with this body of material, there will forever be more to plumb.
Trump has even added in an aspersion about Vince Foster — a White House aide whose death fueled conspiracy rumors involving Hillary Clinton.
But Kenneth Starr — the independent counsel whose findings led to Bill Clinton's impeachment — ruled the gunshot death a suicide.
Oddly, Starr just happened to crop up in the public eye Tuesday. Appearing on a discussion panel in Philadelphia, he spoke of "deep anger" feeding an "almost radical populism" in the United States — and spoke highly of Bill Clinton, despite all that passed.
"His genuine empathy for human beings is absolutely clear," Starr was quoted as saying of him. "It is powerful, it is palpable. . . . The 'I feel your pain' is absolutely genuine."
Starr's statements, though, might not be as useful to the Clintons in debating and deflecting the 1990s scandals as quotes from their old friend Trump that he deems no longer operative.
In August 1998 Trump said in a CNBC interview, as Clinton drew fire: "Can you imagine how controversial I'd be? You think about him with the women — how about me with the women? Can you imagine?"
In 1999 Trump said Clinton would have been remembered as a "great president" if not for the Lewinsky scandal (about which Clinton publicly lied). Trump said people would have been "more forgiving" if "he'd had an affair with a really beautiful woman of sophistication."
In 2000 Trump also called Linda Tripp, who famously tape-recorded conversations with Lewinsky about her encounters with Clinton, "the personification of evil."
Trump years later would call the impeachment "nonsense."
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who pushed the failed case against Clinton that backfired into a huge GOP embarrassment, is now an ally of Trump, who has indicated he'd consider Gingrich for his running mate in November.
After being fined for ethics violations and losing seats in midterm elections, Gingrich was pressured out by his GOP caucus and resigned from the House in 1998.
Why bring up Clinton-related messes he'd dismissed before? The Clintons "said things about me which were very nasty," Trump told The Washington Post.
Earlier this month, Hillary Clinton had this to say: "If he wants to go back to the playbook of the 1990s, if he wants to follow in the footsteps of those who tried to knock me down and take me out of the political arena, I'm more than happy to have him do that."
By now, it matters little who started up the wayback machine. Our journey is underway.

Macedonia PayrollReading Time: 2 minutes
Macedonia is a landlocked country in southeast Europe that's located on the Balkan Peninsula. It's a great location for companies that want to create business ties in southeast Europe and expand across borders. However, your company has multiple areas to consider throughout the incorporation process, starting with payroll. You have to decide on a Macedonia payroll option, set up your payroll to stay compliant with local labor laws, and continue to run both of your company's locations.
Globalization Partners can make a difference with Macedonia payroll outsourcing. We'll hire employees as the Employer of Record and assign them to work for your company. Then, we'll add them to our locally compliant payroll so that you don't have to worry about setting up your Macedonia payroll.
Taxation Rules for Your Macedonia Payroll
Employers in Macedonia have to follow taxation rules for the company and employees. Your employees have to contribute 10% of their salaries as personal income tax, which employers withhold from all employees' salaries. As an employer, you also have to take the following contributions from salaries:
- 18% for pension and disability insurance
- 7.3% for health insurance
- 1.2% for employment insurance
- 0.5% for additional health insurance
Macedonia Payroll Options
Payroll is not one-size-fits-all, and there are four Macedonia payroll options you can choose from, including:
- Internal: Larger subsidiaries that want to work in Macedonia for years to come may consider adding employees to an internal payroll. You'll need a larger HR staff if you choose this option as well as an expert in local labor laws.
- Remote: You can also choose to pay employees remotely using the payroll you run out of your parent company. However, the two sets of employees will have separate regulations and tax codes to follow.
- Macedonia payroll processing company: A local Macedonia payroll processing company will outsource your payroll, but they can't handle compliance. You'll still be the company responsible for meeting employment compliance laws.
- Global PEO: A global PEO such as Globalization Partners can offer Macedonia payroll outsourcing services for companies that are expanding. We can take care of setting up your payroll, and we'll be the company responsible for compliance instead of you.
What Do You Need to Set up Payroll?
If you expand to Macedonia without the help of a global PEO, you'll have to establish a subsidiary in the country before you can set up your Macedonia payroll and hire employees. The incorporation process depends on a variety of factors, and it can take several weeks or even months before you can start working. Instead of losing valuable time, take advantage of the fact that Globalization Partners offers Macedonia payroll outsourcing that can help you become productive sooner.
Necessary Entitlement and Termination Terms
Sometimes terminating an employment contract can be more difficult than creating one. Including entitlement and termination terms in a contract ahead of setting up your Macedonia payroll can protect both you and your employees. Typically, employers should find terminated employees new employment, pay for training, or give one month's salary for every two years of service as a severance payment.
Work With Globalization Partners Today
Globalization Partners wants to make your global expansion a little easier. Contact us today to learn more about Macedonia payroll outsourcing.

There were strikes, splits and spares aplenty - and a few gutter balls - as Skyline took to the lanes for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Guelph's 38th Annual Bowl for Kids' Sake event. Skyline staff attended the Corporate Kick-off, where they and many other corporate sponsors enjoyed pizza, pop, and a few great games of bowling.
To close out the event, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Guelph Board President Matthew Stanley thanked all the corporate sponsors for their participation, and then handed over the microphone to one of the program's "littles", who talked about the special memories and experiences Big Brothers Big Sisters creates for "bigs" and "littles" alike.
This year's event raised over $60,000 for boys and girls involved in Guelph's mentoring programs.

Simple Crafts: TP Roll Star Christmas Ornament
Turning Plain Toilet Paper Roll Cardboard Inserts to Shiny Stars On Christmas Tree
I never trash toilet paper rolls. :) They are on my "collecting trash for crafts" list! So, if you have any loo rolls around your house, you're ready to make this simple star ornament for your Christmas tree.
This craft is great for all kids age 6 and up (school age kids) and, with this little craft, they will help their teacher bring some shining in the classroom this Christmas!
Instructions are simple and so is the craft. If you have any questions what-so-ever, leave them in the comment box at the end of the page.
A little poll for all who land on this page!
Do You Make Your Own Christmas Ornaments?
Step 1 - Preparing Toilet Paper Rolls - Not many things are needed for this simple craft!
On the picture above, you can see all things you'll need to prepare your toilet paper rolls for turning them into stars for your Christmas tree. I've also shownall the stages from whole toilet paper roll to cut and painted strips.
List of supplies:
- toilet paper rolls - one roll = one ornament (+ little extra)
- ruler, pen, scissors
- white paint (or any other you prefer) and brush
First, you need to flatten toilet paper rolls. After doing that, take pen and ruller and mark places to cut strips. My strips are 1,5 cm wide (0,6 in). You'll get 6 of them from one roll and you need 5 for each of the stars.
Now, paint your strips to white (or any other color you like) and let them dry. I didn't paint them on the inside since they were already white. But if you choose other color, you should also paint them from inside.
Makings Shiny Stars for Front And Back of the Ornament - I did this with stars but you can choose which ever shape you like.
I've shown on the picture all the stages of the stars - from drawing them on thin cardboard to finished star coated with alu foil.
Supply list:
- pieces of thin cardboard or construction paper
- scissors, pen
- aluminium foil
First you make yourself a template star. Make sure it's not bigger than 8 cm (app. 3 in) because it will be too big for TP roll strips. Than, use that template to draw stars on thin paper or construction paper. Make as many as you want to make ornaments. You can place them only on front or both on the front and back side of the TP roll star.
Cut them.
Now it's time to coat them in alu foil. You need to be extra careful with this because alu foil is very thin and easy to tear. What I did is this - I cut squares approximately the size of the stars. Than place carboard star in the middle. Cut alu foil in between 2 arms and fold on the arms. Do the same on all sides and cut the extras. If you don't cut the extras, your stars might be too thick for gluing later on.
Do this with all stars.
Step 3 - Gluing Everything Together
Now, you should have tp roll strips all painted and cardboard stars coated before gluing them together. All you need at this point is multipurpose glue.
First you glue 5 toilet paper strips into stars. You can see on the picture on the right that I have used cloth pins to pinch them together. It was easier for me as I didn't have to hold them until glue is dry.
After you glue tp roll strips together, simply add glue on the back of your shiny alu foil star and glue it on the front (and back if you like).
And you're done!
We're all ready for decoration! Further down, I've added a place where you can add your own ideas for decorating these star ornaments!
My Shinning Stars
Do you recycle your toilet paper rolls? What do you make of them?
Do you have some other ideas for ornaments from toilet paper rolls?
Will You Make TP Roll Ornaments this Christmas? - If you have any questions about this tutorial, please leave it here.
I love it and i going make some. Thank you.
I made them red and added a small green "leafy flower" instead of the star (and loads of green glitter of course!) and the fanbits were green too... voila! winter pointsetas!
beautiful and looks easy enough to make.... :):) I'll be making and decorating my christmas tree with these now....thanks ;)
These are beautiful! This would be a great gift to take to the nursing home.
Congrats on being on the Great Ideas for Christmas Crafts list!
We almost always make a new ornament every year but I've not come up with one yet for this year. I better get cracking huh? :D
Great project idea!
How clever and pretty! I will definitely make them
So pretty! No one would ever know they were TP rolls! I want to try this at my Christmas parties this year.
Seen this in the forum and had to pop over. Really charming. Am lensrolling to my various homemade ornament lenses.
These are gorgeous. From a tp tube!
I'm going to link to this from Paper Christmas Crafts - 10 ideas.
These toilet paper Christmas Stars are beautiful. The mice got into our Christmas decorations last year so I have been looking for new ideas for something to make. I can hardly wait to make some of these. Thank you so much for sharing.

Why You Should Have Your Corporate Event Catered
Are you just getting started in your career planning corporate events? If you are, you are just beginning to understand how many details there are that need to be taken care of for a large-scale event. There are some aspects of an event that are more important than others, though. The first one of these that comes to mind is the food.
The first thing most people comment on when they are asked about a particular event they attended is the food. You may be surprised at just how much this effects how your event is viewed by attendees. Some companies try to skimp on food costs by having their employees work to provide food. This is actually a big mistake. The best option when planning the food for a big event is to hire a professional caterer. Here are some reasons why.
Time –
Time is almost more important than your monetary budget during the planning process for a large corporate event. It may seem like you have a lot of time at the start, but that always seems to dwindle as you near the finish line that is the event day. Hiring a professional caterer completely eliminates the planning of dining options for you and your staff, saving you hours that you can now dedicate towards perfecting other areas of the event.
Professionalism –
A professional caterer is clean, crisp, and efficient. They also can put a nice touch on the food service with their professional staff. This is great for you as a planner because it gives attendees a great impression of you and your event when they leave. You want to your event to appear as professional as possible from start to finish. If you're not a food service professional, it is difficult to do this without the use of a professional caterer.
Menu Options –
Your food options are pretty much unlimited when you hire a professional caterer. Their chefs will be able to accommodate your needs regardless of what you want. This includes making culturally and seasonally appropriate dishes for your event. These can be really fun for people because they get to try foods at your event that they may not be able to make for themselves at home.
Cost –
It may seem like caterers are expensive. While they do come with a cost, they also eliminate some expenses along the way. First of all, they have their own staff and equipment, so you won't need to spend any money or time getting those things together. They can get the ingredients and recipes much easier and cheaper than you can, making them a great asset as both a money and a time saver.
Unless you are world class cook with experience running a large kitchen, it is probably not a very good idea to try and supply the food for your corporate event yourself. Professional caterers help eliminate cost, but more importantly, they help you save the time. You can then use that time to focus on the macro and micro level planning of your corporate event.

This is a two-step brightening mask suitable for all skin types.
Illuminating, hydrating and rejuvenating your skin has never been so pretty and pleasant. This mask from A. by BOM is the latest in Korea and you'll love it no matter what your skin type, but especially if you're looking to minimise fine lines in certain areas. This is how it works: apply the flower patches to the areas you want to treat, like around the mouth or eyes. The floral extracts like sakura (cherry blossom) and peach blossom illuminate skin and fill in fine lines. Next, apply the sheet mask on top of the patches, which retains moisture and hydrates with its cocktail of rose, lotus and camellia. The sheet mask is made from lyocell, an organic and biodegradable cellulose.
Apply patches (A1) to the eye area, cheeks or forehead. Next, apply the sheet mask (A2) on top and wait 20 minutes. Remove both layers and massage the remaining serum into skin.

Hi, Snippetteers! My week has been up and down. On the good side, I wrote over 4000 words of Favourite Toy 2 so I was pleased with that. On the bad side, my mum was supposed to be going into hospital this weekend for surgery on Monday. She got a call on Wednesday saying it had been cancelled because someone more important has jumped the queue. They can't even give her an alternative date. Needless to say, we, the family are all raging. MORE IMPORTANT? Seriously? More important than a 77 year old woman with cancer who can now barely get out of bed because of the pain, who's already been waiting far too long. My dad even went to church this week and he's an atheist. They've worked and paid their taxes and national insurance for over 50 years and this is the treatment they get. I found out when I was at work and my poor colleagues listened to a barrage of foul language for quite a while.
Anyway… onto this week's teaser from Favourite Toy 2. Ryan wakes up after his New Year's Eve extremely drunken romp with Remy.
* * * * *
I opened my eyes, flinching in the bright light flooding my room. Why the hell didn't I shut my curtains? I squinted, my temples pounding. How much did I drink? Jesus. All those fucking cocktails. Vodka and rum and tequila and gin and—my stomach lurched. I scrambled up, staggered to the bathroom, and made it just in time.
I have got to stop doing this. It's just like last year. Only last year I'd woken on the sofa in my clothes. This time, I'd woken in my bed, naked, with—I glanced down—a condom still on my dick. I disposed of it and pissed, flushed the toilet again, and crawled back to bed. What the hell had I done?
Unable to face thinking too much, I buried my face in the pillow and willed myself to go back to sleep. Despite my discomfort, both physical and mental, I drifted into unconsciousness and stayed that way until lunchtime. Then noise from downstairs disturbed me—music, voices, someone running up and down the stairs, Casper screeching with laughter.
I rolled over and risked opening my eyes again. The extra sleep had done nothing for my hangover—my head pulsed viciously. The only thing to fix it was plenty of water and some strong coffee. Finally, I thought about it. I fucked Remy. What the hell was I thinking? He was my friend, my housemate, and I'd treated him just like I treated the long line of one-nighters and exes in my past.

The Velvetiser - White EditionSold Out
Imagined by Hotel Chocolat, engineered by Dualit, this chic hot chocolate machine creates barista-grade hot chocolate in just 2.5 minutes. No need for the resident hot chocolate maker to slave over a hot stove, slowly heating milk and showering cocoa powder. Instead, simply plug in your Velvetiser, choose your chocolate and your milk – dairy or plant-based, or even water if you prefer – and press the button. Plus, with the removable whisk and non-stick coating, cleaning is easy – just rinse out with cold water. (It's not suitable for dishwashers – but they'd just slow you down anyway.)
What do you get:
1 x White Velvetiser
2 x Pod cups
1 x Classic 70% single serve sachets
Weight: 3.04 kg
Love this machine! We bought one in the UK and had to leave it behind when we moved to the US so over the moon that we now have one in both countries! Best hot chocolate ever. Highly recommend and well worth the price

In the wake of obscene abuse of privacy that Facebook has allowed with data collected by their platform, Tim Cook has come out guns blazing, slamming Mark Zuckerberg.
"I think the best regulation is no regulation, is self-regulation," he said. "However, I think we're beyond that here."
Recommending regulation of Facebook and legislation on privacy, Apple CEO Time Cook has made a point in the past of criticising the callous way Google and Facebook use our personal information.
Apple's fierce defence of personal privacy isn't a joke. It isn't a corporate-minded stance to woo customers. Remember when they refused to help the FBI, and fought tooth-and-nail in court to make sure they weren't forced to?
They mean it, and it isn't just Tim Cook. In this short interview his predecessor Steve Jobs talks about privacy and Facebook:
"Privacy means people know what they're signing up for — in plain English, and repeatedly."
So every time that iphone popup asks you "are you sure you want to do this?" it's Apple actually respecting your privacy, and forcing every other app develeoper – including Facebook – to play by their rules.
Which is kind of a big deal.
And when you look at the revelations of the data that Facebook and Google are able to collect from Android devices, it seems pretty clear which side we should bat for.
Apple's current line up of products are uninspiring and overpriced … but I'm sticking with them.

The Ultimate Seed-Saver
I can't decide whether I'm depressed to think that we're so close to doomsday that this kind of facility is necessary, or relieved that someone is making plans to survive it. Probably the former, but maybe I'll feel better after a little gardening...
3 comments:
I had a very similar reaction. If it comes to such a doomsday, who will be around to plant the seeds? And will there be any fertile ground left to plant them in? I'd rather just go plant something in my garden and not think about it!ReplyDelete
exactly, we need a peaceful world now.Its like the US presidents nucleur bunker.If he hides there and the worlds blown up who will he govern?Time for some gardening to lighten your mood.Its very 1960's the seed bank idea.ReplyDelete
- Anonymous3:05 PM
I think we have more to fear from the routine everyday, every minute loss of plant and animal habitat. If doomsday comes, we won't be here to worry about it anymore. But the day may come when we look around, and due to commercial agi practices, and loss of natural habitat due to our insatiable need to develop and cement over valuable alluvial soils that took millions of years to "develop", we will no longer have many of the valuable plants that we once loved and enjoyed. There will only be two kinds of tomato, one big brown potato to make giant McFries and one kind of corn. Bless those seed keepers!ReplyDelete

I cannot imagine my childhood without my (paternal) grandparents. If it was my grandfather who made us read aloud while he corrected the pronunciation, gave us dictation, tried to teach us a language that was not part of the standard school curricula, made us write ten sentence essays everyday and corrected them, help us maintain scrap books, teach us Sanskrit poems and prayers, and help resolve disputes between us siblings, it was my grandmother who taught us all the mythology, home remedies, folk wisdom, and sense of fair play. Of course, we also had the benefit of long distance (mere 40 kms, though we visited them only twice or thrice a year) grandparenting from our maternal grandparents.One charm of RKN's books for me is his portrayal of grandmothers–be it his autobiographical Grandmother's tale or his novels like Swami and his friends–with which I could completely identify.
Now, Anne Holden at Inkling has a post about the origin of grandmas; via Seed. The piece has some very interesting information:
For thousands of years grandmothers helped with child care, domestic chores, even food gathering. In fact, anthropologists have argued that the effect of grandmotherly care on child survival was so potent that it shaped some of our most basic biology: menopause, cognitive decline, even longevity itself.
Take a look!

The following Letter to the Editor from ANU Vice-Chancellor Professor Ian Young was published in the Australian Financial Review, 17 October 2014.
In an article in The Australian Financial Review on 15 October concerning the decision by ANU to divest a small part of its investment portfolio, it was indicated that I, as Vice-Chancellor of the University had declared a potential conflict of interest to Council on the divestment issue.
My declared conflict of interest is no secret. It was the subject of an article in The Australian newspaper on 12 May 2014. As well as being Vice-Chancellor, I remain a very active researcher including presently being a Chief Investigator on two Australian Research Council Discovery grants. My field of research is Physical Oceanography with a focus on extreme oceanic conditions. In particular, I have an international reputation for my work on ocean wave climate and extreme ocean waves under storm conditions. During my career, I have provided advice to the offshore oil and gas industry on extreme conditions for the safe design of offshore structures.
As the university was developing a Socially Responsible Investment policy I felt that my involvement with the industry could be seen as a conflict of interest. In particular, I was concerned that I might be seen as having bias in favour of the industry. As a result, I declared a conflict of interest to University management and then to University Council in October 2013. Hence, I was not involved in the development of the policy or its operationalisation. Nevertheless, I do support the adopted policy and the decisions of the University Council.
I appreciate that people might ask how I reconcile providing advice to the offshore oil and gas industry and my stated views on the impacts of fossil fuels? As I have publicly stated, fossil fuels are going to be around for decades to come. Although they do environmental harm, we presently do not have alternatives. I hope we can transition to these alternatives as soon as possible and that Australia is a technological leader in the carbon constrained world. In the meantime, our offshore oil and gas industry needs the highest quality information on environmental conditions to operate safely. Overseas, failure of offshore facilities under extreme storm events has resulted in catastrophic environmental damage. As such, I hope that my research plays its small part in preserving our marine environment.

2015 Polaris Slingshot
Ever wonder what would happen if a Campagna T-Rex and Ariel Atom produced a child? We're willing to bet the offspring would look a lot like this. Say hello to the 2015 Polaris Slingshot.
Constructed by the Minnesota based company most known for their ATVs, the Slingshot is the perfect solution for the weekend warrior looking to hit the mountain roads. Technically it's a motorcycle, and not a car – which is both good and bad. The bad; you have to wear a helmet. The good; Polaris was able to forego a ton of unnecessary "car" equipment when building this thing out, helping the carbon fiber shelled three-wheeler tip the scales at an ultra light weight 1,725 pounds. The vehicle is powered by a 2.4-liter EcoTec engine pumping out 176 horsepower, and puts those ponies down through a five-speed manual transmission. There are 2 different options to choose from, both of which come with standard features like ABS, electric power steering, electronic stability control, and traction control. The base model will start at just $19,999. Not too shabby.

The Concept was mooted prior to the 2012 Olympics, making use of a brown field site at the London Thames Gateway.
Currently used for landfill, it will be reclaimed as public land to become a wonderful backdrop to a stunning artwork and community resource.
The proposed frieze of giant Olympian chalk-cut figures up to 18 metres tall would mark the boundary to the new Wildspace Conservation Park or 'Wildespace', currently being developed for London.
It would also present a dramatic new vista, visible from the Thames, the Queen Elizabeth II bridge, the Kent shore, and flight paths over London.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal today directed officials to geo-tag plants and monitor their survival rate under the the government's mega plantation drive in September.
Arvind Kejriwal also directed officials to launch a massive awareness campaign for mass public participation in the drive, according to an official statement.
Agencies participating in the drive include Forest Department, MCDs, NDMC, Education, Health, CPWD, PWD and Delhi Jal Board who briefed the chief minister on the progress, according to the statement.
Mr Kejriwal directed that a helpline be created for the event and publicised for people to call and check the nearest location for participation. He also directed that various club also be involved in the drive to make participation better.
The issue of post plantation care was also raised during the meeting. The chief minister said that all the plants should be geo-tagged and monitoring should be done. He also said that a monthly report on the same should be submitted to him.
"Responsibility of the survival of the plantation would rest with the respective greening agency. Forest department would be the nodal point for all such coordination," he was quoted by the statement as saying.
"Involve Resident Welfare Associations, market associations, school children and their parents in the drive. Make it a mass movement. We have to reach the grassroots to make it a grand success," Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia was quoted as saying in the statement.
A decision was also taken to plant trees, which are at least 6 ft in height. Mr Kejriwal also sought a detailed report on the survival report of the plantations done in the last five years in Delhi.
The chief minister has now called a meeting with heads of department of all the greening agencies on Tuesday for another review. They have been asked to come with a detailed plan on the plantation drive.
The Delhi government will carry out a massive drive to plant five lakh trees and shrubs on a single day in September, the city's Environment Minister Imran Hussain had earlier said.

I'm taking a moment to switch direction from my Cancer blog to look at Martin Luther King Jr. and what it means to a simple white guy like me.
Frankly, I am a little uncomfortable writing about race, not wanting to offend, but it's worth the challenge to articulate how Martin Luther King Jr. has changed things for me.
I'm a Northern-Midwest guy, from Milwaukee; this part of the country is not overflowing with people of color; it's very white. I attended a Catholic grade school and out of about 500 kids, we had zero people of color, by that I mean no Asians, Latinos, or African Americans. Nada. The city is divided into pockets, where African Americans inhabit one section of the city, Latinos another, and whites the suburbs. Different races don't really live amongst each other and it's striking how polarized the city remains even today when we return for visits.
I began to think about race in high school, when differences set apart pacts of people; race was noticed. At the boys prep school I attended, different races rarely mixed, but some notable brave exceptions (people of color) seemed to befriend all types of people. Those folks seemed to melt the ice and embodied the fundamental precept of the Civil Right Movement, which was to challenge the status quo – in this case commiserating with our own races.
While aware of our differences, it was more important to talk about studies, sports, or dating rather than race. And it worked, and it was natural.
By no means is that a seminal or unique experience, but it was an actionable extension of King's vision of harmony, peace, and unity among different people.
Since those days, I have traveled the world and experienced many cultures and think of the famous Mark Twain quote:
"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime."
When I traveled frequently out of the country on business, I tried to learn as much about a region while I was there by visiting cultural sites, buying products in markets, venturing into restaurants well outside the guidebooks, and simply walking through the hearts of cities.
Learning more about different perspectives is now a priority.
I look at my son and see how his upbringing regarding race and cultures differs so much than mine. As a father, I have tried to expose him to as many cultures as possible. Our family has hosted friends from foreign countries and before those visits, mandated to our son that he ask them some questions to learn more about their culture. Our neighborhood is a cross-section or different races and cultures with people who have lived in places all over the map. And, while he is aware of differences, they are without the stigma or sensitivity that they carried in my childhood.
This is his new status quo.
These experiences I hope will shape my son into a more sensitive man and give him an awareness that our differences are not divisive, but just the opposite. And I hope this change is what Dr. King dreamt of many years ago.

A clash is imminent Monday between Kogi State Acting Governor, Abdullahi Bello, and Idris Wada, who was elected governor of the state last December.
Following the Supreme Court's sack of Ibrahim Idris as governor Friday, Mr. Bello was inaugurated as the state's acting governor by Chief Judge Nasiru Ajana. But ousted governor, Mr. Idris, also got the the President of the State Customary Court of Appeal, Ibrahim Shuaibu, to, in another ceremony, swear in his annointed successor, Mr. Wada.
But federal authorities implementing the directives of the Attorney General of the federation, Mohammed Adoke, that the Assembly speaker should take over power, chased Mr. Wada away from the Kogi Government House and installed Mr. Bello as the state's interim helsman.
However, Mr. Wada's camp claimed Sunday the controversy over his assumption of office had been resolved, and that he would assume office in Lokoja on Monday.
Mr. Wada's media advisor, Jacob Edi, claimed Vice President Namadi Sambo hosted the contending parties to a meeting Sunday night where it was agreed that the governor-elect should be allowed to take charge of the state. Those he claimed were at the meeting include the vice-president, the Kogi Speaker, party officials at national and state levels, and Mr. Adoke.
"Wada is commencing his four-year tenure on Monday," Mr. Edi said on the telephone. "Everything has been resolved and stakeholders have agreed to move ahead in the interest of peace."
But shortly after Mr. Edi spoke to us, the Kogi Speaker denied being part of any meeting in Abuja, saying he remained in charge of the state.
"As far as Kogi is concerned, the Speaker is in charge," Mr. Bello said through his spokesperson, Ibrahim Amoka. "The Speaker was not part of any meeting. Today, we were in the Government House receiving visitors and holding meetings with security operatives."
The police in Kogi also said Speaker Bello is the authentic helsman in the state. "The Speaker has taken over here in line with the Supreme Court judgment," police spokesperson, Ajayi Okasanmi, told Premium Times. "I am not aware of any meeting or directive asking any other person to take over."
The Supreme Court had on Friday removed Mr. Idris, along with four other governors from office, saying their tenures expired on May 29, 2011.
The other governors immediately handed over to the Speakers in their states. But it was not that simple in Kogi which already has a governor-elect in Mr. Wada.
While the Federal Government insists the Speaker should succeed Mr. Idris, the ousted governor believe Mr. Wada should take over. The intense power play led to two parallel swearing-in ceremonies in the state on Friday.

These cute snowman biscuit pops are the easiest Christmas snack idea around!
• 12 Oreo biscuits
• 24 Jammy Dodgers
• 1kg white chocolate, broken into squares
• Pretzel sticks
• 50g dark chocolate chips
• 300g icing sugar
• Orange food colouring
• Black food colouring
• 6 wooden skewers
1. Make your snowmen: Take a wooden skewer and carefully, through the cream center, push a Jammy Dodger onto the skewer. Repeat this with another Jammy Dodger and then an Oreo at the
2. top, until you have 12 skewers. Place these into the freezer for 30 minutes to harden.
3. Place the white chocolate in a large heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, making sure the base of the bowl does not touch the water. Gently melt your chocolate. Once completely melted pour into a jug or large jam jar and allow it to cool slightly.
4. Take each of your biscuit skewers and gently dunk them into the melted white chocolate. Make sure they are completely coated and then place each skewer onto a silicon mat, in between the top two biscuits gently press a pretzel stick in either side as the arms – use a little more melted chocolate if need be to ensure they stick. Then using your chocolate chips press on two eyes, and three buttons down the middle. Then place in the fridge to cool and set (approximately 15 minutes).
5. Decorate your snowmen: Make the icing by placing the icing sugar into a bowl and adding 2 teaspoons of water, mix until smooth and fairly thick – add a little more water if necessary. Pour half of this icing into a separate bowl. Colour one with orange food colouring, and the other with black. Spoon each icing into a piping bag. Remove your snowmen from the fridge. Carefully snip a small hole in the end of your piping bags and using the black pipe some small dots for the mouth. Then using the orange pipe a carrot nose.
6. Transfer to a serving plate and enjoy!
