Private Lender Loans
In recent years, a growing new trend in the financial services industry has been the rise of direct private lenders. Private lender loans in Canada have become more and more popular. Banks are no longer seen as the default and only choice for consumers seeking loans. In this guide to the topic, we'll explore and explain why this trend has developed, as well as highlight what private lender loans have to offer to Canadians.
Direct private lender loans allow Canadians to borrow money, just like banks and other traditional financial institutions do. The difference is that banks have always been highly risk-averse and maintained a fairly high threshold for lending. This only increased after the financial crisis of the late 2000s.
The result of this fact is that many Canadians are not able to qualify for loans with banks. This is especially true for those who are in the market for bad credit loans. Often, those are the customers who need quick access to funds the most! So, it's no wonder that there has been great interest in alternative lenders, to open up the credit and loan markets to all who need them.
Direct private lenders which offer bad credit loans can therefore offer Canadians other options to get the credit then need, even if they've been turned down by a bank before. Many private lenders have low or no credit score requirements and use advanced technology to analyze your loan application.
iCASH allows Canadians to apply for a cash loan online and provide instant approval, which will save you time, hassle as well as money. The new era of private lender loans has been a benefit for Canadians who are looking for a loan online.
Many Canadians may wonder if getting a bad credit loan through a private lender is a better choice than traditional banks. That really depends on individual circumstances, and what kind of loan or credit product you are looking to obtain. Assuming that a direct private lender has what you're looking for, how do they compare to traditional banks?
In general, banks offer somewhat lower interest rates than private lenders. The flipside is that many consumers are unable to qualify for these bank loans. Bank loans often involve a lot of paperwork, one or more in-person appointments, significant waiting time for approval and getting the funds once you're approved for a loan. Direct private lenders can provide loans online, require no in-person appointments or travel, and no physical paperwork or document requirements, either.
Many private lenders can also provide same day loans, fast approvals and even funding within an hour.
Banks often may also only offer secured loans – loans backed by collateral. For many customers, risking their home, car, or other possessions in order to get a loan isn't something they are willing to do. That can leave consumers without a lot of options.
Fortunately, numerous direct private lenders offer unsecured loans, with no collateral requirements. That gives them a major advantage over banks, allowing consumers to access the money they need, when they need it, without risking their assets.
But not all private lenders who provide loans to Canadians are created equal, and consumers are right to be leery of the reputation that some private lenders have developed. Banks are a known quantity can turn away a lot of customers, but people know what they are getting into. Direct private lenders are a bit more unfamiliar to many people and that's one of the reasons for this guide! Read on and we'll tell you how to choose a top-quality, trustworthy loan lender a bit later in this guide.
Another key area where private lenders outperform banks for many consumers is when it comes to bad credit loans. As mentioned above, banks are quite strict about their minimum credit requirements in order to qualify for loans. Many will automatically screen out the bottom 80% of the population based on their credit scores. That leaves a lot of people without access to funds.
Credit scores and credit reports are not always accurate. As a single number, a credit score, doesn't really reflect the trustworthiness or risk of a borrower. That's why many private lenders for bad credit loans do not require borrowers to have perfect credit.
In fact, many don't maintain any credit score requirements at all, instead choosing to look at the person's overall income and financial picture to make a risk determination.
What this all means is that Canadians with bad credit can often obtain loans from private lenders, even if bank options are entirely closed to them. Bad credit doesn't need to be an impediment to accessing loan funds, thanks to the existence of direct private lender loans.

Interest Rates on emergency loans from private lenders can vary significantly from company to company. You should always make an effort to compare rates and choose a company that you know has great reputation as well as one that you feel comfortable with. This will ensure that you know the cost of borrowing up-front, and it won't change based on market fluctuations.
At iCASH, we fully disclose the interest rate on our website as well as during the application and loan agreement process. As a direct private lender for bad credit loans that does business online, we are able to maintain very low overhead, allowing us to offer you extremely competitive interest rates.

Customers with bad credit or less than perfect credit find it difficult to obtain loans. Traditional lenders and banks are highly risk-averse, as we've discussed throughout this guide. That means they set the bar very high to qualify for their loan and credit products which results in excluding a large portion of the population. But private lenders don't have to abide by the same low-risk threshold that banks do. This means private lenders such as iCASH can provide online loans for bad credit to almost anyone.
We believe you're more than just a number. So long as you meet our minimum lending requirements, your loan application will be fairly and fully considered.
Our primary concern is whether or not you have the financial means to repay the loan. We pledge to never disqualify any Canadian from getting a loan solely on the basis of a poor credit history.
Finally, one area that people often worry about when getting an online loan from private lenders is information security.
We take your information security and safety very seriously. It's the lifeblood of our business, after all. To that end, we've invested heavily in the latest security and encryption technology to keep your financial information safe.

In short, at iCASH, we believe this is the hallmark of quality when it comes to private lender loans. It's essential to allow us to maintain the trust of our many satisfied Canadian customers and to keep doing what we do.
Below, we've compiled some of the top most Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) regarding private lender loans and, more importantly, provided answers for those questions.

In school, athletics, music, and pretty much anywhere else, we seem to do an awful lot of testing.
Exams, quizzes, tests, games, matches, meets, recitals, auditions, concerts, juries…it seems there's no end to the testing we do.
Don't get me wrong – it's not that testing is inherently evil, or necessarily such a bad thing all the time.
For instance, testing (a.k.a. retrieval practice) does lead to better learning than many of the study methods (like reading, highlighting, and concept-mapping) we spend most of our time engaged in.
Heck, even the mere expectation that we will be tested leads to greater test scores than when we're not expecting to be tested.
But sometimes it's nice to have a break from all of this, as constant testing can start to wear on us after a while. Then again, is there any other way? Or is this as good as it gets?
Experiential learning
"See one, do one, teach one" is a learning philosophy that has guided the training of medical residents for some time.
Indeed, the concept of learning by teaching is not a new one, and as anyone who has ever tried to explain how to program a
VCR DVR over the phone quickly discovers – we don't really know something until we've had to teach it.
This is a concept that has filtered down into classroom settings, with strategies like the "jigsaw classroom," where students share responsibility for each others' knowledge. This is where a classroom is divided into groups, and within each group, the individual students are responsible for becoming an "expert" on a specific subtopic. Once each student has researched their topic, they bring it back to the group and share what they have learned with the group (i.e. teach).
I even saw learning-by-teaching being implemented at my kids' Tae Kwon Do practice the other day. I dropped in, and couldn't help but smile when I saw my 9-yr old semi-patiently guiding his sister through her new pattern. When he got turned around and looked a little confused, I smiled even bigger, as I could see that this was going to help solidify his learning as much (if not more) than hers.
Intriguingly, a recent study found that we don't even have to go through the act of teaching to experience a boost in learning. Simply the expectation that we will have to teach prompts us to learn more effectively.
Teach, or take a test?
Researchers told 56 UCLA students were told that they would have 10 minutes to read a ~1500-word passage that they would later a) be tested on (the testing group), or b) have to teach to another student who would then be asked to take a test on the passage (the teaching group).
After their 10-minute study session was up, they then engaged in a 25-minute "distractor" task (to let a little forgetting set in), and designed to keep them mentally occupied enough that they couldn't keep reviewing the passage in their mind.
Then, all the students (even the ones who were expecting to teach, rather than take a test) were tested on how much they remembered from the passage. One test was essentially a brain dump, where they were asked to write down anything and everything they could remember from the passage. The other was an 18-question short-answer test about various details from the passage.
Teaching wins!
Students who thought they would have to teach consistently outperformed their counterparts in the testing group. They recalled a greater proportion of accurate content from the passage, were able to recall information more efficiently (it took them less time to recall more details), and their organization of the recalled material was more effectively structured, looking more similar to how the original passage was written.
They also outperformed the testing group on the short-answer test.
The researchers suggest that expecting to teach may have led the students to pay better attention to details of the passage, and adopt particularly effective learning strategies that would help them teach more effectively. Essentially upping the game and studying better, knowing that teaching demands a more in-depth understanding of the material than a test would.
Take action
Motor skills and book learning are different of course, but there is a cognitive element to learning motor skills, and we do seem to pay better attention when we know we will have to teach something.
Students already are expecting to be tested on what they are learning, via lessons or performances. So if you want a student to perk up and really pay attention, perhaps setting up opportunities for them to teach a less experienced student (in addition to performing regularly), would add a valuable element to their learning process. Not to mention the confidence boost that comes from teaching, and being able to share something of value with someone who can benefit!
How do you (or could you) incorporate teaching into your students' learning process?

My line to my private students has always been: "You're the teacher here; you're going to go home and teach yourself how to play over the next week. My job is to coach you on how to teach."Reply
Great idea! This was especially interesting to me because I've been teaching on my own since I was very young. I started teaching my little brother, then some cousins, and then friends and acquaintances. It has definitely played a major role in my own learning. It can help teach you how to teach yourself during practice too. I've never thought to intentionally provide that opportunity to my students… I'll have to think about how to do that. I think it's a wonderful strategy!Reply

Theatre Three presents The Birds
Rounding out the Theatre Too season is Conor McPherson's thrilling play, The Birds adapted from a story by Daphne du Maurier (also the basis for Alfred Hitchcock's classic film). An unsettling and moving look at human relationships in the face of societal collapse, The Birds is set in an isolated house where strangers Nat and Diane take shelter from relentless masses of attacking birds. They find relative sanctuary but not comfort or peace. There's no electricity, little food, and a nearby neighbor may still be alive and watching them. Another refugee, the young and attractive Julia, arrives with some news of the outside world, but her presence also brings discord. Their survival becomes even more doubtful when paranoia takes hold of the makeshift fortress—an internal threat to match that of the birds outside.
Production will be in the Theatre Too space at Theatre Three.

Our objective is to create an innovative, inspiring school to serve families in our group. This system is predicated on the belief that if academics are provided with well timed information on pupil performance from interim assessments tied to state requirements, if school leaders present support and create structures that assist them use that data to determine student weaknesses, and if lecturers have information of tips on how to enhance the efficiency of students who're falling behind, then they may turn out to be more effective at figuring out and addressing gaps in scholar learning.

In that state, long-term lecturers are required to earn a master's diploma with a purpose to maintain their certification, and many fulfill that requirement by getting their master's in management – despite the fact that they by no means plan to grow to be a principal.

"Like plants or animals, tags evolve in an emergent fashion, open to hybridisation. Stewardship can help grow and put roots down. Helping the darwinian process is tag gardening."
I like it.
In the same post James writes that he wished I would start using declarative living:

Former athletes with a history of concussion averaged higher levels of total tau in their cerebrospinal fluid than did healthy controls, and those with the highest levels showed signs of reduced cognitive function in a case-control study.
Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) remains a postmortem diagnosis, but "the potential for treating postconcussion degeneration such as CTE depends on being able to detect the in vivo pathology at an early stage to intervene before the disease progresses to an irreversible stage," wrote Foad Taghdiri, MD, of the University of Toronto and colleagues.
In a study published in Neurology, the researchers measured concentrations of phosphorylated tau181, total tau (t-tau), and beta-amyloid in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of three groups: 22 former professional athletes who had suffered multiple concussions, 5 healthy controls, and 12 individuals diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease (AD). The average ages of the groups were 56 years, 57 years, and 60 years, respectively. All the athletes were male, and their sports included snowboarding, hockey, and football.
The average t-tau level in the CSF of the athletes was significantly higher than that of controls (349.3 pg/mL vs. 188.8 pg/mL) and significantly lower than that of AD patients (857.0 pg/mL).
Normal CSF t-tau was defined as 300 pg/mL, and 12 former athletes (45%) had high t-tau levels, with an average of 499.3 pg/mL. In this group of high t-tau former athletes, the average score on the Trail Making Test (TMT) Part B was significantly lower than the average score among the 10 former athletes with normal CSF t-tau levels (t scores 45.6 vs. 62.3; P = .017).
In addition, results from MRI scans showed that fractional anisotropy values across all the tracts were significantly lower for those with high CSF t-tau levels, compared with those who had normal CSF t-tau levels (P = .036).
The findings were limited by several factors, including the small sample size, lack of female athletes, and limited ability to compare white matter integrity between high and normal CSF t-tau groups, the researchers noted.
However, the results suggest that "multiple concussive or subconcussive events may trigger neurodegeneration to a greater degree than expected on the basis of age alone," they said. Although the study did not allow for diagnosing the participants with CTE, "we are engaged in longitudinal studies to track neurologic and neuropsychological function, CSF biomarkers, and structural brain changes over time to further assess the delayed effects of multiple concussions on the brain," the researchers wrote.
The study was funded by the Toronto General and Western Hospital Foundation, PSI Foundation, and the Canadian Institute of Health Research. The researchers had no financial conflicts to disclose.

Is it me? Or did March fly by this year? Compared to February though, this month was pretty chill. Not a whole lot of things occurred. However, life progression happened as well as a fun month of getting back into blogging! Here is my February review!
Getting back into blogging
I think what made March super special for me was getting back into blogging. Before March, I would create a blog every now and again, but nothing that made me motivated to do more. I told myself that for the rest of the year (and hopefully longer), I would write more blogs. Book blogs, food blogs, game blogs and life blogs. You name it – I write. So my biggest accomplishment this month has been that!
I have wrote so many blogs this month! From a slow cooker recipe for sweet and sour chicken to a blog about my most anticipated books of 2017! To have a look at all the blogs that were released in March, you can click here and it will take you there! Did you have a favorite blog this month? Let me know!
Important things that happened
Compared to February, not too many things occurred during March. However, some life progression things were finalized and some celebrations were had!
I officially became a resident of the Netherlands! This was such an exciting and emotional time for me. Becoming a resident means so much. It means that I will now be able to apply for health insurance, get a bank and start looking for a part-time job!
I walked through the park – MYSELF! This is huge to me. One thing that I want to do while living in the Netherlands is to go out more for a walk. The park (which I talk about here) would be the ideal location for this. So I bucked up the courage and just did it. Had music playing in my ears and I walked. I was so proud of myself, and I got some stunning pictures of the view!
It was my partner's father birthday! Therefore we celebrated as a normal Dutch family would – With coffee and tea, cake and then snacks. It's a very normal thing here and I love it.
Not only was it my partner's fathers birthday, but it was my dad's birthday as well! Alas, I couldn't celebrate with him since he's in Scotland. Of course I sent over a card and I gave him love online.
We went to the fire station games! This happens here every year here in Winschoten. It involves various fire stations from around the area to compete (and train) to see who can deal with a situation the fastest/most efficiently. We went to this because my partner's dad and his sister's husband is part of the fire department! I plan on writing up a blog talking more about this, however for now I will post a picture from the event.
Note-worthy mention for March.
I FINISHED A GAME ON TWITCH! This is massive. Since the start of 2017, I've been on a depressive decline with Twitch. I haven't been enjoying it as much as I used to, making excuses not to stream and not seeing the point anymore. One thing I told myself in March was that I needed to stop. I needed to get myself back together and just stream. So I decided to say fuck it, and I decided to play a brand new game – on release (which I never do). I started playing Horizon Zero Dawn.
I freaking LOVED this game so much, and I plan on writing up a proper review soon because it deserves one. Oh my goodness it deserves everything. Even though the game didn't bring 'numbers' to my channel, I enjoyed playing the game. That's what truly counts. With only 1 full day left of March, I finished the game and I couldn't be happier.
Books I read in March
Even though this month was not as crazy as February, I still only managed to read two books. I really want to be able to read more, however I tend to read a chapter or two then get side tracked. The two books I read this month were books I have been wanting to read for a long time, and I loved both of them.
The first book I read in March was Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell. This book I discovered when I was searching lists from recommendations, and this fell into the "If you enjoy The Fault in our Stars, you will like this book" category. I can say with all my heart that this is now one of my favorite books ever. You can find the review for the book here.
The second book I finished was A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab. This is the first book of the Shades of Magic trilogy. I have only just finished reading through this book, and I loved it. I have the feeling though that this will be a book I will want to re-read in the future while not being sidetracked. The book is about one of the last magicians who has the power to travel across different worlds. There shall be a review of this book where I will go into more details (without spoiling too much).
Board / Card games I played in March
Me and the partner only played one card game this month. The card game we played was Boss Monster. This was a game that I bought for him for Christmas (or his birthday… I can't remember!) I bought this game originally due to the art style. Retro pixels? Yes please!
In this game, you are the boss of a dungeon. You build up the dungeon each turn by rooms, to a max of 5 in a 2 player game. The rooms will have different enemies/abilities and these will draw the "heroes' to your dungeon. The person that kills ten heroes firsts, wins. Or the first person whos boss takes 5 'blood' damage losses.
This was a pretty fun game, however it will be a 'must-go-back' to game, since when we played it first, we completely missed a mechanic which may of made the game feel more balanced. Silly us!
Looking into April
April is going to be an exciting month for me life wise, and the blog! Not only is a certain event that I love coming up soon, but in April I will be starting to do a challenge.
Blog everyday in April challenge!
So I did this ages ago when I held a personal blog for myself while in college. the idea is as the title says, I will be blogging every single day in the month of April! Whether or not these will be full length blogs with hundreds of words and information, or just random thoughts, there will be a blog released everyday!
Why am I doing this? I want a challenge. I love the idea. This is going to be a fun month of just writing, and hopefully helps me improve my writing technique.
My birthday
Another big occasion that will be happening in April is MY BIRTHDAY! As I mention in my Wanted List blog about my birthday, it is one of my favorite times of year. I am super excited for it. One blog that will be coming up around this time is the celebration of a typical Dutch birthday. This involves cakes, tea and coffee and snacks.
Eating healthier
I vow to start eating healthier. I have been starting to fall back into some bad habits, and I need to snap out of it. During April, I plan on doing several things that will help me get back on track.
- Drink less coffee – I know this will be shocking to some people who LOVE coffee. Of course, I love it too. However, whenever I drink it I suffer. My stomach gets super sore and I sometimes end up in places for ages. Whenever I have coffee, I tend to have 3 to 4 mugs of it a day, that's not good. So my plan is to start drinking less. Maybe 1 mug every couple of days. Of course I will still be drinking tea and plenty of water!
- Eating more fruit – This is something that I really struggle with. I get paranoid when it comes to fruit. If I have a fruit that is far too sweet, my stomach struggles and then I'm in the same situation as the coffee. But, I need to eat more. Even an apple a day will be better than what I have now.
- Walking more – I mentioned that March was a big month for me and I walked through the park myself. This is something I want to do more. Even if it's just a short walk, I want to be able to get out and about more. Plus it's healthy to walk!
These points will be just the beginning of my healthy plan. Eventually I'll be joining a gym with my partner and hopefully starting to do some yoga (even if that's just in the house with videos.) I'm sure I will keep you guys informed with the progress!
The main thing I enjoyed about March was relaxation. Being able to feel at ease, not needing to worry about travelling which has been a big thing over the past few years. I'm super excited for April to start!

This module exploits a flaw in the new plugin component of the Sun Java Runtime Environment before v6 Update 22. By specifying specific parameters to the new plugin, an attacker can cause a stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code. When the new plugin is invoked with a "launchjnlp" parameter, it will copy the contents of the "docbase" parameter to a stack-buffer using the "sprintf" function. A string of 396 bytes is enough to overflow the 256 byte stack buffer and overwrite some local variables as well as the saved return address. NOTE: The string being copied is first passed through the "WideCharToMultiByte". Due to this, only characters which have a valid localized multibyte representation are allowed. Invalid characters will be replaced with question marks ('?'). This vulnerability was originally discovered independently by both Stephen Fewer and Berend Jan Wever (SkyLined). Although exhaustive testing hasn't been done, all versions since version 6 Update 10 are believed to be affected by this vulnerability. This vulnerability was patched as part of the October 2010 Oracle Patch release.

CHICO — The North Valley Harm Reduction Coalition is offering free community training sessions in Chico Thursday and Friday on how to administer the opioid overdose reversal drug naloxone.
The sessions will both take place at Blackbird cafe, located at 1431 Park Ave. in Chico, beginning at 6 p.m. This comes on the heels of a mass drug overdose that took place at a Chico home over the weekend, where it is suspected that the opioid fentanyl, or a drug like it, was involved.
One person died and 12 adults were taken to Enloe Medical Center for treatment. Opioid reversal drugs were administered at the scene.
The coalition is offering free trainings after receiving more than 600 doses of naloxone to distribute in Butte County through a grant from the California Department of Health Care Services in October, according to a press release. The coalition says it has distributed over 150 boxes of Narcan brand naloxone since then.
The drug works almost immediately to reverse the effects of an opioid overdose.
"Trained and equipped bystanders such as friends, family and drug users themselves, can effectively respond and reverse an opioid overdose," the coalition's press release reads.
All participants in the training sessions, who must be age 18 and older, will receive one box with two doses of Narcan nasal spray for free. The North Valley Harm Reduction Coalition says there is no need to sign up, just show up at the training site. More information can be found at nvhrc.com of by calling 332-8065.

Stablecoins are Starting Traction to See Outward of Crypto Exchanges
The statistics are a change from previous times when the majority of Tether (USDT) would sit at Bitfinex or other crypto exchanges and not see much on-chain usage at all, in part because Bitfinex was the main exchange where they had real liquidity and in part because it was the best place to trade with them. That has changed in recent times, with Bitfinex implementing Tether neutrality, and other
According to statistics published in Diar,
The volume of on-chain transactions raises the question of what all these
In investigating this article, this reporter discovered an interesting fact about the Gemini Dollar. Of the top 3 holders of GUSD, two appear to be Huobi-owned addresses (named Huobi_3 and Huobi_7 respectively), and between them, they have a total of 51% of Gemini's total units – $44.4 million worth. The number two holder is OKEx, another large Maltese exchange formerly based out of Asia. Huobi also has the fifth slot, with another ~$5 million, and several other slots as well, totaling around 65% of all tokens held.
Huobi recently moved to a combined
It's obligatory to note that these holdings are very likely not those of the crypto exchanges themselves, but their users, which tells a slightly different story about GUSD than the other

While many 18-year-old girls look forward to college and the beginning stages of adulthood, Abigail Brookshire found herself in the throes of despair that would change her life forever.
It was in the fall of October three years ago when Brookshire said she was violently raped by an in-law at her home in Midlothian. After being unable to shake the frightening incident from her memory, she told her father, who then reported it to police. Justice, however, she found out would be far from swift.
"My report did not result in a conviction due to lack of protocol in place and the lack of information I received regarding resources available to me," Brookshire told the Mirror. "I won my civil case and now have a permanent restraining order against the assailant, but he is still free and without criminal consequence."
Being dissatisfied with the handling and outcome of her case, Brookshire decided to turn her focus to advocacy in the hopes that no one else would be put through the rigors of "an incompetent justice system that allows victims to slip through the cracks and never see retribution."
"I've been working to help make new laws and advise leaders on appropriate steps to take to help other survivors," The University of Texas at Arlington psychology student championed. "I want to be a part of helping survivors of crime in every way I possibly can."
The statistics are staggering. The Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network purports that a sexual assault occurs every 92 seconds, and only 230 out of every 1000 cases are reported to the police.
Last week it was announced Gov. Greg Abbott had appointed Brookshire as one of 12 people to serve on the prestigious Texas Crime Victims' Institute Advisory Council.
"Abigail Brookshire has played an important role in combatting campus sexual assault and as a survivor herself, Abigail will provide a vital perspective on behalf of crime victims in Texas," the governor's press office expressed to the Mirror via email.
The task at hand for the 12-member team is no small feat. It will be "charged with conducting an in-depth analysis of the impact of crime on victims, close relatives of deceased victims, guardians of victims and society," according to a press release.
At 21, Brookshire is the youngest member on the team.
"It feels great, but it's also a little intimidating," she admitted. "I'm excited but also humbled to be a part of this, and I will put in all my extra time doing more research to further this cause that is so important to me."
It's easy to see why Brookshire was a top choice for the governor. She is credited for taking the lead on amending a 2018 Republican Party of Texas plank concerning the handling of rape cases to include a standard statewide protocol. The plank was later renamed Abby's Law.
The psychology major's foray into politics was just beginning. In the summer of 2018, she worked with State Rep. John Wray (R-Waxahachie) to amend House Bill 8, known as the Lavinia Masters Act. The amendment makes way for further guidelines for law enforcement and medical professionals when responding to sexual assault victims.
"I'm thankful for Ms. Brookshire, who came to my office with the goal of making a difference for her fellow Texans," Wray explained in an email to the Waxahachie Daily Light. "Her passion and experience inspired me to file this legislation. After a lot of research, we identified two simple steps, which will create a more accurate and efficient process during a sexual assault report."
Brookshire will serve on the governor-appointed council, based in Austin, until January 2021. She will also graduate from UTA in the summer of that year.
"My career goal is to be able to go into a job where I can help others deal with their trauma as my therapist helped me get through mine," Brookshire expressed with optimism.

Ingredion debuts clean label functional native starches
The new line of starches is marketed as gluten-free, non-GMO and allergen-free while enabling manufacturers to meet growing consumer demand for "natural" products
04 Jun 2019 --- Ingredion, a global provider of ingredient solutions to diversified industries, has launched a new addition to its range of clean label texturizers: NOVATION Lumina functional native starches. These have been specifically designed for light-colored food applications with subtle flavors. The texturizers' neutral color and flavor profile were designed to give manufacturers the ability to "maintain the most appealing qualities of their products even in the most delicate food applications."
NOVATION Lumina functional native starches are endorsed by the company as delivering a viscosity and gel strength comparable to modified starches. They are touted as providing excellent freeze/thaw and shelf-life stability and have high process tolerance – making them ideal for products that undergo harsh processing conditions. Functional native starches are a solution that fits a broad range of product needs. Whether the goal is achieving a creamy texture, reformulating for a clean and simple label or simply improving the sensory appeal of delicate food applications, Ingredion's array of texturizers is said to provide ample solutions.
Created for delicate food applications that demand mild flavors and colors, the functional native starches provide neutral flavor and color, enabling formulators to develop creamy, smooth textures without impacting light colors or delicate flavors of finished products. The starches are ideal for a wide range of food applications, including yogurts, dairy desserts, custards, dairy drinks such as drinkable yogurts and flavored milks, white sauces including cooking creams and ready meals, dressings, soups and fruit preps.
Of the countries that have provisions in place to regulate the term "natural," NOVATION Lumina's functional native starches are said to meet the criteria of natural food ingredients in the UK, France and Ireland, as well as associated EU legislation and the global ISO Technical Specification (ISO/TS 19657).
The addition of NOVATION Lumina to Ingredion's portfolio of clean co-texturizers follows last month's launch of NOVATION Indulge 2920 starch, a corn-based starch which reportedly can support lower-fat and lower-calorie products.
Functional native starches with label appeal
More consumers are shopping for clean and simple labels globally than ever before. According to reports by market researcher Innova Market Insights, a 13 percent CAGR in global food and beverage launches with a clean label claim was observed in 2013-2017. Products with this type of positioning accounted for 29 percent of global NPD launches in 2017.
In an Ingredion proprietary study, "natural," "all natural" and "no artificial ingredients" claims were found the most influential factor in consumer purchasing decisions.
Ingredion research also reveals that flours and starches rank in the top ten of the most consumer-accepted ingredients. Labeled simply as "corn starch," NOVATION Lumina functional native starches are also gluten-free, non-GMO and do not require allergen labeling. Manufacturers should carefully consult regulations specific to all target markets, the company notes.

According to the DPA you and I, the data subjects, have the following rights:
* To view any information an organisation holds about us.
* To request information held about you be up-to-date and accurate.
* Not to have information held about you used for direct marketing.
* Not to have information held about you used in a way that may cause damage or distress.
In 2003 amendments were made to the 1998 Act which increased the powers of the Data Protection Commissioner as well as the level of security demanded of data controllers when dealing with personal data.
GCSE IT Revision must include a look at:
Data security
Great emphasis is placed by the DPA on protecting data from theft or harm. As a result companies use a range of methods to ensure that personal data is safeguarded. In terms of software this may include:
- The use of passwords to prevent general access.
- Graded access according to the seniority of the employee.
- A regular change of passwords so that security is kept current.
- Additional security questions on top of the password.
Physical protection might include:
- Restricting access to certain computer areas using magnetic card swipes or key codes.
- Storing servers or back-ups in safes or high security fire-proof rooms.
- Use of surveillance equipment and alarms to secure the premises.
- Employment of security guards to monitor security.
The Computer Misuse Act (1990)
This act was introduced in 1990 and identifies the following three types of activity as illegal:
1.) Unauthorised access to computer material.
2.) Unauthorised access with intent to alter/destroy computer material.
3.) Unauthorised access with intent to commit, or help someone else commit, a crime.
Illegal access to someone else's computer can be achieved by hacking into their account, either by guessing or working out the password. Unauthorised collection of personal information can also be collected using spyware, key logging software (software that records what people have typed into their own computer) or by phishing (the setting up of fake sites to resemble well known sites).
Once access to someone else's account has been achieved, a crime has already been committed. Hackers can go even further by stealing financial and sensitive details, transferring money into their own account or by destroying or altering someone's files.
Punishment for this kind of crime, depending on the severity, can vary from a small fine to many years in jail. The most common defence against this type of threat involves the installation of firewalls, software which builds a defence against cyber attacks.

This is the place to leave suggestions about science questions you want to discuss in class. Simply leave the idea as a comment below. (If you want to do it anonymously, post a comment on the instructor blog or email Andrew.)
We need reasonably focused questions. Broad topics, like 'Evolution' or 'Stem Cells' or 'Genetically Modified Organisms' won't work. Pose a question scientists have (or could) set about answering. The questions might be anything from those that scientists consider solved (How old is the Earth?) right through to questions considered unanswered (How did life arise?). Also fair game are course-relevant questions non-scientists argue about, even if scientists do not (Is there anything in astrology?).
My plan is to chose questions that allow us to explore the course objectives. By way of examples, I currently have in mind questions like
- Does HIV cause aids?
- Are vaccines dangerous?
- Is passive smoking dangerous?
- How many deer to kill in deer season?
- Can your genome tell us how long you have to live?
- Why do peacocks (or birds of paradise) have such a ridiculous tails?
- Is the Earth warming?
But I am open to suggestions……..

Last week, Hurricane Sandy ushered in our first bout of cold weather. It hit hard. We were reduced to huddling in small groups in the corner of Haley just to stave off the frostbite. We transitioned from bare arms to wool sweaters overnight. Or, to translate that into terms that are a little more familiar, we transitioned from Nike shorts to Nike shorts with leggings underneath.
You might spend hours determining the perfect ensemble, but once the cold weather strikes, the only thing people will be able to judge you by will be your outerwear. So what does your winter coat say about you?
Colored pea coat
Cold weather often means clouds, lack of sunlight and stowing away your vibrant hues in favor of dark, muted colors. A brightly colored pea coat is a way to throw on a splash of color in a sea of grays. But bear in mind, not all colors are equal. If you're wearing a pea coat in a stunning scarlet or deep red this winter, you're likely to come off as mysterious, alluring and adventurous. If you're wearing a pea coat in pink, you're likely to get mistaken for a 14-year-old girl.
Leather jacket
The leather jacket is a great option for turning your reputation around if you made the pink pea coat mistake earlier in the season. Throw on a leather jacket, and all of a sudden you're kicking your feet up in class, popping your gum and rolling your eyes excessively. Wearing a leather jacket instantly communicates that you are a rebel without a cause who does reckless things like riding a motorcycle or tossing your plastic bottles into the bins marked 'landfill' without blinking an eye.
Oversized military jacket
When properly styled, this look can add an effortless ease to your style that lands you somewhere squarely between glamorous and girl-next-door. The look can most accurately be labeled 'homeless chic.' With its army-surplus appeal and vintage wash, the oversized military jacket runs the risk of making you look like you are ready to hunker down next to a trash can fire.
Trench coat
The trench coat borders on costume, not because it is particularly garish, but because it transcends its use as a jacket and embodies a persona. A girl in a trench coat is not simply looking for a way to withstand the wind. You are channeling your inner British superstar (we all have one, from Kate Middleton to Emma Watson) and probably narrating the entire event in your head using a English accent. The trench carries connotations of intrigue as much as it does elegance. With the collar pulled high and your hat tipped low, you look like a girl that's either ready to solve a crime or commit one.
Long sleeved T-shirt and vest
This combination throws onlookers for a loop, namely because they simply don't know what to make of it. Here's a girl who took a look at the weather report and thought, 'I'm going to need to find a way to stay warm. I should probably concentrate all efforts exclusively on my torso." This outerwear choice communicates an element of danger. This is a girl who is undaunted by the brisk temperature, passersby will think. This is a girl who is not afraid to lose both arms to frostbite.
Swing coat
The shape of this jacket recalls the regal austerity of a cape and the fit of a plastic garbage bag. A girl in a swing coat wears it with her head held high, trying to avoid eye contact with the laboring class, and she probably still owns the tiara she wore to her high school prom. Because your body will be largely indistinguishable underneath the swish of fabric, wearing a swing coat tells people that you are devoted to the sartorial cause and you're probably too busy for a boyfriend right now anyway.

Ever since I first head about vintage kilo sales I have to admit I've been fascinated and eager to try them out. Ever an optimist, I always go into any place where I can buy vintage clothing with the hopes that I'm going to find some absolutely knockout pieces (unfortunately vintage shopping definitely doesn't always turn out that way but I love it anyway).
After hearing positive reviews of the Preloved Vintage Kilo, and seeing they were coming to Skegness, which isn't far from me, I decided to go and visit and see if I could pick up any gems. The short answer is yes I did and I also brought Martin along as well who bought himself a mountain of flannel (and one thing I really did like about these sales is that they really catered to guys too).
So at Preloved Vintage Kilo sales the stock is separated into different sections so t-shirts is one rail, dresses another, denim another (I think you get the hint), after you scan or buy your ticket you are given a plastic bag* (I wish there was a more sustainable way of doing it then this but I see the need for something light weight, though it might be worth bringing your own bag and asking the staff to weigh it before they weigh your items to take the weight off – though I don't know if this is against their policies!).
The price when I went was £15 per kilo (it also cost £1.50 to get in), but certain items such as jackets, bags, etc. were a set price. This was great as otherwise bulky items like knitwear would feel quite unfairly priced compared to other stock. The only time then the kilo weight will really hit you is you are grabbing a heavy dress but a heavy dress will still likely come in under the kilo mark or just about there and £15 for a vintage dress is not bad!
Overall I grabbed 6 dresses and my items weighed about 2 kilos so came to about £30 so that averages about £5 a dress which is not something I'm going to complain about. Decade wise I saw a mixture but definitely a lot of 90s and early 2000's but I spotted a few 60s/ 70s pieces as well as a 1980s velvet Laura Ashley gem I'd have picked up if it was my size and a 1980s Topshop prairie skirt of my dreams (again not my size unfortunately)! There was also other few gems I now regret not getting- I even saw a vintage Harrods cape that I would have got but it had a zip on it which put me off (and I'm trying to only buy things I absolutely love).
I did actually bring a tape measure in case there wasn't changing rooms but there was, which was a great surprise and really impressed me. I didn't personally use them as I had a tape measure and I am quite good at guessing my size (though of course things can be your size and still not look right so I do recommend trying stuff on if you have the time/ feel comfortable enough to do so).
The quality of the clothing was generally good but I definitely should have taken a closer look at some of the items I got as I didn't notice a tear under the armpit for one of the dresses I got (but it's not noticeable on and I'm hoping it can be fixed) but that's my fault there. But I just wanted to mention this as something to look out for if you're going to one of these sales.
But without further ado now that I've washed my haul – the guide I linked to has some helpful advice for washing vintage (though a few alterations still need to be made); let's get into it.
The first item I got was this dreamy, 90s (I think), deep red dress that definitely was inspired by the fact that I watched Practical Magic for the first time the day before. If someone could just give me Gillian (Nicole Kidman's character) wardrobe in that film I'd be happy (I mean I'd be even happier if I could actually look like Nicole Kidman but I'd settle for the wardrobe.
I decided to keep to the 90s vibe by styling this with some second hand Keds that I bought off Depop but I think some boots could also look great with this style of dress. Due to the holes in the top of the dress it's a bit difficult to figure out what to wear underneath but I found neutral colour underwear worked well for me.
The dress is also thick enough for Autumn (and if worn with boots would help to keep me warm) and has a great Autumnal colour palette. Personally, I love browns for Autumn don't get me wrong but it's also the time I want to see dark, vivid emerald greens, burgundy's and altogether more rich, warm looking colours.
Dress: Vintage
Jacket: Miss Selfridge (old)
Shoes: Keds (secondhand from Depop)
The second dress I got is another quintessential 1990s number. I've seen a lot of these layered dresses on Depop and have been wanting one for a while so couldn't resist this one when I saw it, especially after seeing the gorgeous navy check. The only issue is the under white layer of this dress is a little sheer and it did come to me a bit wrinkly (nothing a iron couldn't fit) but I love anything I think would make me look like I fit in on the set of Friends.
My next purchase is probably my favourite and it is this fabulous prairie dress that has so much fabric! It's way too long for me (as are all maxi dresses are!) but it's stunning. This is the dress that has the rip under the armpit but I don't think it's noticeable when wearing the dress and it's definitely fixable. I am also going to get it hemmed but haven't had a chance yet as when I went to visit a seamstress they were closed (just my luck!).
I'm also pretty sure this is a vintage Candi Jones dress, as I saw someone post a dress with very similar fabric on Instagram the other week and that dress was a vintage Candi Jones. At the very least it's a dress that has a similar vibe!
Dress: Vintage
Shoes: Converse (borrowed from my mother)
Keeping with the 1970s theme I also picked up this stunning maxi dress that has some absolutely lovely embroidery on it. This dress came a little stained but a lot of the stains were on the bottom of the dress which I knew I'd need to take up anyway so it didn't bother me too much. Luckily, the bottom of the dress really cleaned up after a wash and now there's just a small mark left on the dress (which, I think could come up with another wash).
The next dress I got is this stunning C & A Drindl dress (guessing by the label I'd guess this is from the 1970s or 1980s), which would look amazing with a prairie blouse underneath it or a simple, white turtleneck.
My last dress is the only one I wasn't sure of (and still don't know if I should crop it a bit) but I was in love with the collar so I had to have it. I actually think it's quite a nice casual dress, it just seems some care with the styling – I think a biker jacket and some casual trainers (some Veja trainers would look great!) give it more of a modern look and stop it being too 'cutesy' (not that there is anything wrong with that though!).
So there you go that's my haul! I'd definitely check out Preloved Vintage Kilo again. The Skegness event was actually quite quiet which was nice but I suspect other locations like York for example would be a lot busier! If you're just looking for some basics or something a bit more special, I think why not go along and have a rummage and give a piece of clothing a nice lease of life!
Also, if you like any of the pieces I mentioned I'm actually selling some of them on my Depop at the moment (@aprilrain3) because although I love them they didn't look quite right when I tried them on and clothes are made to be worn so I'd rather them go to people and be loved and used.
*Update: I've now seen on Instagram that the bags they use are biodegradable.

San Diego Comic Con 2007. There I was among a crapload of other reporters for the Iron Man roundtables. Iron Man was nearly a year away from seeing release but Marvel was out in full force to do some early promotion of the film.
This next interview was with Jon Favreau who directed the flick and co-starred as Tony Stark's chauffeur/bodyguard Happy Hogan. Iron Man was Favreau's fourth time directing but he really knocked it out of the park with what would become the first entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Here Favreau talks about what it was like bringing Iron Man together to a table of awesome reporters……..and me.
More Iron Man interviews to follow!

Quite good, despite a few cheesy scenes.Rating: 8/10 My rating: 7.6It was better than expected. It definitely reminded me of "Crash" and
especially "The air I breathe" with multiple story's, drama and the
city atmosphere, it has a similar feel to it.Despite a few REALLY cheesy scenes in the end, it really was
entertaining all the way trough. The acting was good, most noticeable
by the mesmerizing Jessica Biel and the always strong actor Forrest
Whittaker.Biel has a few nudes scenes in the movie which was done very tasteful
and very sexy ! and if you didn't think much of her before, you most
like will be in love after watching her dance :-). Too bad this is
probably the only thing this movie will be known for, as it lacks
serious promotion and probably will go straight to DVD.Hope it will do good, just spread the word I guess.It should find it's indie audience I'm sure.

Enevoldsen, Torben - Heavy Persuasion
Year of Release: 2000
Label: Lion Music
Catalog Number: LMC2004 2
Format: CD
Total Time: 46:41:00
Did I hear somebody say that name again? Joe Satriani? I seem to always reference him when I hear some of the instrumental music that comes out, but I have no choice. There are so many guitarists that have emulated his sound and style. Well here is another one to add to the list. This is not a bad thing... I love it actually. Instrumental rock guitar kicks ass! Dutch born Torben Enevoldsen's latest release Heavy Persuasion is chock full of rapid-fire guitar licks with a hard and sharp edge; just like a glistening hunting knife in the sun, it cuts and slashes away at you until you submit to its power over you.
The lead track "Heavy Persuasion" sets the tone for the entire album. This guy doesn't just rip and tear his way through a song; he "plays" with fire and passion, and in so doing commands the guitar to make engaging sounds. The first track is hard to top, but Eneveldsen holds steady all the way through and turns in a stand out performance of virtuosity and creative imagery. "Desert Groove" keeps you in the mood and holds you transfixed to the sounds, and every one after that will keep you interested as well. There are successive rockin' tracks of ear candy at your disposal on this CD.
This man roars like a lion and makes his instrument purr like a cat. The balance, focus and energy that he maintains are simply incredible. The attributes of his personality and the control he demands of his artistry are the very ebb and flow of the musical tide.
There is not a dud on this album, it rocks straight on through and doesn't give you a break, believe me you won't want one, you will want more and more of what this guy dishes out. It will be interesting to see how he develops. I am sure the comparisons to other artists by the name of Joe will disappear in time. Real talent stands on its own merit. It takes only six strings made of metal, some electricity, and one man can do some amazing things. Keep a watchful eye on this one.
