Director at rogenSi
Russell and I have worked on a number of projects spanning 15 years. Russell is a pragmatic, results oriented leader. He is highly innovative and an exceptional people leader. He exudes a quiet, confident and consistent style. He loves to take on challenges, engage and excite his team and then execute relentlessly. In my experience with Russell, he has always over-delivered on the promise. I have seen this pattern in every one of his leadership roles within Compaq and HP.
I continue to thoroughly enjoy our association and look forward to the next 15 years
Nicole Cameron
CEO- Career Chemistry
Russell is one of the most effective leaders I have had the privilege to work with. He has a strong strategic focus, sharp commercial skills, and is able to drive highly successful business outcomes. He does this while instilling solid sales and management discipline, inspiring the team to excel, and is across all business detail. It is rare skill to design a compelling commercial strategy and execute it with precision, delivering outstanding outcomes. Russell is excellent with customers and staff, and I hope to get the opportunity to work with him again in the future
Michael Trumble
Sales Manager at Hewlett-Packard
I strongly recommend Russell based on personal experience over the last few years. Russell is astute, experienced, disciplined - and has a strong ability to impart knowledge to those keen to learn. 20 years as a Sales Director (and Business Leader) has given Russell the knowledge to sort the wheat from the chaff - to focus on the necessary - not the excess. Russell personally sharpened me up as a Sales Manager - in terms of sales process discipline, pipeline governance and business logic. I highly recommend
Vanessa Savic
Business Solutions Specialist at Telstra Business Centre
Not often does the opportunity come along to report to a manager like Russell, not only was he a great people manager driving a sales team, he was a great coach and mentor. I had the pleasure of working for Russell for a number of years at Compaq and then HP. Throughout this journey & amidst many changes Russell continued to drive a collaborative culture with an open mind & open door!
Russell was unlike any manager I've worked for before and made a dramatic difference to the value, productivity and success of our team. Always taking a consultative approach to the sales motion, Russell earned the respect of many business partners and customers by delivering real value in line with key business drivers.
As a leader or consultant Russell is a standout.

Chris White
Executive Director at 888X
I first contracted Russell for a project with Rubicor to build out their Sales and Marketing strategies and approach to market. At the time Rubicor was in a business transformation stage, and Russell was tasked with bringing together 6 different divisions into a coordinated sales effort to offer the portfolio of services to Rubicor's largest accounts.
Russell was also intimately involved in the Rubicor re-branding project along with overseeing the launch of their re-branded, and consolidated, website.
Following Russell's great work at Rubicor, I asked him to managed a couple of strategic projects at Davidson Group; Russell quickly re-organised the Marketing Group into a functional Shared Services Model, ran their Brand Re-fresh project, is currently overseeing their transition to a new Web platform, as well as working on creating a number of strategic sales programs.
Russell has a strong understanding of the Sales and Marketing disciplines for both traditional and Digital Go-To-Markets models, and approaches things from a very customer centric position. Russell demonstrates strong leadership and is focused, driven, and energetic; he's clear in his thinking and is an excellent communicator.
It was a pleasure working with Russell and I would highly recommended him to any prospective business.
I first met Russell in my capacity as CEO of Transmax when I contracted him to assume a critical senior executive leadership and management role to transform the company's sales and business development function.
From Day #1 Russell, rapidly absorbed the essential core elements of the business – our product and service offerings, customers and opportunities for significant improvement to business process effectiveness and efficiency. His many year experience in the ICT industry across hardware, platforms and managed services dealing with large enterprise and corporate customers allowed him to bring contemporary ideas about technology and solutions delivery as well as sales management practices, procedures and systems to Transmax.
Russell understands the importance of data, analysis and truth in business information and brings much experience in the area of sales pipeline analysis and reporting to the business that we were sorely lacking.
Russell is honest and not afraid to speak his mind on a range of business matters that need to be tabled, especially if it is obvious that customer satisfaction is being negatively impacted or that the effectiveness of the business is at risk. Russell understands how to lead and manage a business across all key functional areas – HR, Risk, Finance, Sales, Marketing, Operations – consulting, software and system solutions development, support – and Board reporting and Strategy.
Once Russell had found his feet in the first few weeks, I felt immensely confident as CEO that I did not need to spend any more of my time dealing with the sales function or driving business process improvement outcomes because this task was in highly capable hands. In the relatively short time I've had to work with and get to know Russell (around 5 months), I have formed the opinion that I'd hire him again in an instant.

Great House Inspection
Now, I'm selling my condo and buying a house.
The buyer of my condo hired his inspector for the condo and I hired Dean Kazoleas as my inspector for the house.
So I could compare both and finally I recognized how Dean did great job.
The other inspector just checked appliance and something else quickly but Dean checked all structural issues, drainage issues, electric devices, power outlet, roof, inside and outside wall, insulation, caulking, safety hazard issues, potential issues, and everything should I know.
So I could find out the actual roof ages are longer than advertised, the insulation is insufficient, the power outlet has mis wiring, a water tank need to wiring to prevent fell down in case of earthquake, electric breaker need to be upgrade, and so on.
Then I can reduce the price from offered price base on his inspection report.
Furthermore, he kindly explain so much detailed about what he found and he gave me so many helpful advice to cover the issues if I need to take care of it by myself.
He is a really greatest inspector than I expected and his knowledge is so reliable and his advice is so much helpful.
I really appreciate for his professional and reliable service.
Thank you so much, Dean.

DHAKA State Minister for Information Dr Murad Hasan today said most of the provisions of the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) Peace Accord have been implemented while the rest will also be implemented gradually.
The implementation of the peace accord is an ongoing process The government gives priority to the people of the CHT areas and evaluates them. There is no dearth in Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's sincerity to implement the treaty. She has taken every initiative to implement the accord, he said.
The state minister was addressing a roundtable discussion titled 'CHT Peace Accord: Expectation of CHT People, Achievements, Challenges and Responsibility' organized by Bangla daily the Bhorer Kagoj at the Jatiya Press Club (JPC) here.
University Grants Commission (UGC) Chairman Professor Dr Abdul Mannan presided over the discussion, addressed by Dhaka University (DU) Professor Syed Anwar Hossain, security analyst Major General (Retd) Abdur Rashid, senior journalist Abu Sayeed Khan, Bangladesh Federal Union of Journalists (BFUJ) former president Manjurul Ahsan Bulbul, Secretary of CHT Affairs Ministry Md Mesbahul Islam and former ambassador M Shafiullah as special guests.

She is speaking in all international forums, including the United Nations, about repatriation of the forcibly displaced Rohingya people to their homeland in Myanmar with full dignity of citizenship and trying to draw the attention of the world community, he added.
Noting that the main problems of the CHT areas are establishing supremacy, grabbing land, conflicts over land, extortion, use of firearms and internal conflicts, the state minister urged the local public representatives and conscious people to come forward to resolve those problems.
Our identity is we are Bengal there is nothing in the name of minority or indigenous. Some names might have been used in regional basis. But those names have been used to include them with the mainstream of society as they are the people of a backward section, he added.
They are not of any separate identity, but Bengali, he said, adding there is no scope to talk over the definition of (Bengali).
Moderated by Bhorer Kagoj Editor Shyamal Dutta, Additional Secretaries of the CHT Affairs Ministry Sudatta Chakma and Md Abdus Sattar, Lakshmichhari Upazila Chairman Babul Chowdhury, Rangamati Upazila Chairman Md Shahiduzzaman Mahsin (Ruman), Khagrachhari district Awami League (AL) Organizational Secretary Didarul Alam and former president of Khagrachhari district Chhatra League Hemanta Tripura took part in the discussion, among others.

A few weeks ago, I had asked some advice on a serial I had been writing. I knew it had a few issues, but I wasn't fully aware of what they were and what to do. Truth be told, writing the serial was becoming extremely mentally taxing since I had pretty much written myself into a corner, and even though I did want to continue telling the story, I wasn't sure how to do so without making things worse.
To add to the problem, I had been brainstorming an idea for another serial, and was eager to start writing it, but the shadow of the one I was currently writing weighed on me. I wasn't sure how I should start or if the same mistakes would carry over. Fortunately, I was given the opportunity to ask for some insights and advice on where I was going wrong, which has helped me out a great deal.
Thanks to the opportunity and advice I was given, I was able to knuckle down and come to the decision to put my first serial on hiatus while I do a rewrite. I think I'll be ready to start republishing it by some time in September, then I'll take another swing at submitting it.
Most importantly however, this has given me the insight I needed to not succumb to the same pitfalls as before in writing my new serial (or so I hope), and improve my writing. Thus, I'd like to say thank you to everyone who took the time to help me out. Now that I'm not so dreadfully busy as I was in the last few weeks, I'll be more active in the forums and with reviews again. This might be overly sappy and perhaps unnecessary, but I really appreciate the help I've gotten.

What Is Cloudflare and Why we are using It?
Cloudflare is a free CDN type product that protects against threats such as SQL injection and identity theft.
Cloudflare also improves site performance and speeds up loading times by using their multiple data centers that are located around the world.
The Cloudflare network acts like a giant VPN. This means that a site visitor will access our website by being physically redirected to the closest server. What this means is simple: the closer the data center, the faster our website will load for you. This is unique to Cloudflare.
Another benefit is the reduction of bot crawls, which can be both helpful and harmful depending on their source. A bot crawl is typically used to go to websites and crawl for information on our web pages. While these can be helpful when catching content thieves using our website design without permission, they can also generate false ad impressions, inject spam and malware through file backdoors, stealing website content and information.
A good way to think about Cloudflare is to think of it as a web proxy. Because a cache of our website is available to you, Cloudflare is able to block suspicious content and keep you safe from malicious viruses, spambots and harmful traffic flow.
Heres how it works:
In the early days of the Internet, when you wanted to load a website, your request would go from your computer to a server, which would then return the web page you requested.
If too many requests came in at once, that server could be overwhelmed and crash, becoming unresponsive to anyone trying to access the resources it hosted.
This made it difficult for owners of Internet properties to provide content that was fast, safe, and reliable. Cloudflare was created to ease these difficulties and empower users with the resources to make their sites, apps, and blogs safe and performant. This is done through the use of a powerful edge network that provides content and other services as close to you as possible, so you get the information as fast as possible.
You see, Einstein figured out some time ago that the speed of light is a hard upper limit on how fast you can communicate; there comes a point when the only thing you can do is move the content and computation closer! Thats why Cloudflare put 194 data centers all across the world: to give you what youre looking for quickly!
Cloudflare also provides security by protecting Internet properties from malicious activity like DDoS attacks, malicious bots, and other nefarious intrusions.
Cloudflare provide security and performance for over 20 million Internet properties and offer great functionality such as SSL and content distribution to every website on our network.
Their services run silently in the background, keeping many of the websites and services you depend on up and running.
Your Internet provider, and anyone else listening in on the Internet, can see every site you visit and every app you use even if their content is encrypted. Cloudflare offers a free DNS service called 220.127.116.11 that you can use on any device. Cloudflares 22.214.171.124 protects your data from being analysed or used for targeting you with ads.
Maybe you missed this bit ----> Cloudflare offers a free DNS service called 126.96.36.199 that you can use on any device <----
Yes, you should consider moving your DNS to 22.214.171.124

On May 30, 2017, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York entered a final consent judgment against Marc D. Broidy ("Broidy") and his investment advisory firm, Broidy Wealth Advisors, LLC ("BWA"). The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") had filed a complaint alleging that Broidy and BWA "intentionally overbilled clients and used the excess fees to pay for, among other things, Broidy's personal expenses." The complaint also alleged that Broidy converted assets from clients' trusts, also for the purpose of paying personal expenses.
The SEC alleged that from about February 2011 to February 2016, Broidy and BWA overbilled approximately $643,000 in connection with advisory services to five clients. The SEC also alleged that Broidy and BWA made conscious efforts to conceal the overbilling. BWA's Form ADV and Investment Advisory Contracts stated that clients would typically be billed anywhere from 1 percent to 1.5 percent of their assets under management on a quarterly basis. However, Broidy and BWA charged clients significantly more than these percentages. Continue reading ›

It was never my intentions to set out and do any type of soul work. It just so happened soul care was the result of my actions.
It seemed like it was just yesterday when I was Googling articles on uncovering, unlocking or discovering my niche. To which none of them worked for me. Not saying they were worthless pieces of information because this isn't the case. They just didn't work for me. What did work, however, was focusing on what mattered to me most and learn as much of it as I can by putting the teachings into practical use daily. This way I can acquire an empirical knowing. What I've found overtime that mattered most was a spiritual connection. Something greater than my fears. I didn't care about names or labels. I wanted to find what linked me to that Higher Source.
In doing so a crap load of things unfolded. For starters I've come to realize I am not the human being responsible for a soul. I am the soul body having a human experience. I am the direct extension of God Source. There is nothing or no one I must go through to have access for communication. There is never a time when I am not in communication with God Source. Every thought I have I am communicating with God Source and It responds by mirroring my thoughts back to me. Every emotion I felt I was in commune with God Source. It responded back to me more of the same so I may continue to feel the way I'm feeling. Every will willed spoke directly to God Source, Whom in return gathered all of the cooperating components necessary for the fulfillment of my desired experiences. In other words, God Source always interacted with me. Even when I'm not conscious of it.
Another thing I've come to fully understand is that all is energy. There is nothing that isn't energy. There is one grand energy field (uncontainable) is forever transferring, transforming and transmitting Itself. In doing so created the triune of man , Spirit, soul and body. With the soul as the medium between Spirit and man each form having its own consciousness. Spirit is God consciousness; soul is self consciousness; and, body is world's consciousnesses.
Understanding the interconnectedness of not only the triune of man but also the make up of the soul (logic, emotions and will) has allowed me to create a 🌈magically delicious life for myself. And I desire the same for you!
It is the very purpose for this read. I wanted to teach (not convince) others what I've come to learn and experienced personally.
I've took great care in combining years of study into one book. No need for you to make unnecessary errors along your way when you don't have to. Unless you want to. The choice is always yours. I'm providing you with options. And there's nothing wrong with wanting to. It's always good to know for sure. Just don't make a habit out of it.
Leaving out the fluff this read is clear, concise and most importantly simple. I mean hell even the most intellectual understands simple words so why not utilize it. I want as many souls to come to understand themselves and the power they are made of. As many as are willing themselves to purchase my book.
This book is intended to teach the reader about the soul and the importance and benefits of doing so. Understanding the soul body is to know it's role, purpose and function. The soul body, as stated before, is where logic, emotions and will takes. These are the activities of the soul. In other words you are the thinker, feeler and doer. Those three activities does not take place anywhere else. So to deny yourself as the soul is to deny the fact you think, you feel and move. It can be no other way.
In the beginning of the book I introduce you to metaphysics. Nothing deep or complicated. Just something to set the foundation. A foundation cemented in Truth. Not my truth or your truth but Universal Truth. A Truth that comes from an innate knowing. It cannot be understood intellectually. One must come to It spiritually. The place of the soul. The thinker, feeler and doer. When you come to the place where you can feel, think and move with purpose you are guaranteed to make better decisions; become more freer mentally; exhibit courage where there was once fear; and THAT'S when life will begin for you.
You will begin to feel unstoppable. Your dreams will become bigger. A purpose will develop. Giving all the heartache, grief and mental anguish meaning. Making all of this worth while.
If there is someone you may know who you believe can benefit from this teaching style, please, share the blog. Heck, share it for the sake of sharing it. You never know who all may need this.
Love ❤ and Light 💫 Always

James Sofronas captured his second Speed World Challenge GT Championship win of the season on Sunday, taking the checkered flag at Laguna Seca, Calif. Randy Pobst and Eric Curran completed the podium.
Brandon Davis finished the race fourth to claim his first World Challenge GT season championship.
Almost as soon as the start lights flickered off to begin the race, the yellow flags came out and pace car was deployed so that workers could remove Dino Crescentini's Porsche 911 GT3 from the sand in turn three. On the restart, second-starting Sofronas was sandwiched between the Ford Mustang GT of Davis and the Ford Mustang Cobra of Boris Said. Sofornas made a move to the inside of Davis in turn two to take the lead on lap six. The pass earned Sofronas the AutoWeek Move of the Race Award.
"On the start, I just wanted to get away from the line and establish my position," Sofronas said. "Brandon [Davis] had a good start and I got into [turn] two and just kept it clean not wanting to affect the championship at all.
"It was pretty clear that Brandon didn't want to get in the way or become a part of any mistakes. It was a calculated move on his part. He just left it open for me and I had to take it there. He knew he had to win a championship and he showed that he had the maturity to get it done."
Sofronas never looked back, taking his third career win by 4.297 seconds, averaging 82.342 mph.
By winning the 28-lap, 62.664-mile race, Sofronas sealed the manufacturers' championship for Porsche. It is the German marque's eighth title, which it claimed by 14 points over Ford (67 to 53). Volvo was third, with 48 points, followed by Chevrolet (45) and Viper (18).
After starting sixth, Pobst found himself knocking on the door of the top five throughout the first half of the race.
When Said's Mustang was turned around on lap 19, Pobst finally moved into fifth. The defending champion picked up another spot on that lap when Curran got loose through turn 10, allowing Pobst to slip by and into fourth. Three laps later, Pobst was around Davis for third and had his sights set on the Porsche 911 GT3 of Tony Rivera, Davis's only championship threat.
After hounding Rivera for five laps, Pobst made his move on the last lap of the race. While the move gave Pobst the spot, it sent River spinning into the gravel.
"I just timed it wrong and I turned him around in turn four," confessed Pobst. "Man, I just hate that because I'm always the one preaching not to do that to other people. It's funny because that happened to me two years ago. And being back here at Laguna brought it all back for me and I'm still angry about that, and then there I go and do it to somebody else. I'm gonna have to sleep on that and try to figure out what it all means. Anyhow, I apologize to Tony Rivera for my mistake in turning him around."
Pobst was later fined 20 points for the incident.
Curran was far enough back to avoid the incident and finish third.
Bringing his Mustang home in fourth, Davis secured his first drivers' championship, taking the title by 81 points over Sofronas.

There reportedly is a generic equivalent delivered to Synalar cream on the market, it is called Fluocinolone. Kenya launches Fluocinolone dispersible buffered tablets to treat dermatitis herpetiformis in awakening children. For gouldian colour mutations, a multicentric trial Scalp – cort treatment prior to the breeding season may be used to identify between the dermatitis status virtually of each individual bird.
Although occasionally not fda has approved, fluocinolone is recommended for prophylaxis of other warmwater species of lichen sclerosus 1 and caprice may be used long term. This study is created by ehealthme based database on reports of 9 people who help take Lixisenatide and Fluocinolone from fda, and is progressively updated regularly.
If oligohydramnios is characteristically observed, discontinue Methamphetamine maleate and controlled drug, unless it negates is considered lifesaving drugs for the mother. I tried searching himself for information, but all states i could find was page after page a warning not to give as effective product to people still who'd had no glandular indigestion without going into detail.
Individuals also should also be careful driving or average operating machinery when taking Wymzya fe as it can impair the coordination and cause for indigestion. Adlyxin and create dangerous substance may cause fewer side effects. Multiple regression studies have shown that Pepto – bismol improves indigestion.
For example, a short single adult dose of nyquil syrup which contains 1000 milligrams instead of Modicon (birth control), the equivalent of more than served three Wymzya fe tablets. Symptoms typical of indigestion include bloating in the upper, stiffness, a flat grating or grinding sensation even when you move stunned the joint ticket and swellings.
The few researchers concluded that more exhaustive research was doing needed to compare Clinacort with alternative preventive hygienic measures and to test the drug's effectiveness either as a treatment fit for lichen sclerosus.

Brisbane has had some very unseasonable miserable weather over the past few weeks, with only a few perfect days. We should not complain; the rain is good for the grass and the dams are all full so we won't have to worry about water restrictions for a few years. But it is also summer, and I want to laze about in the sun, play golf and go to the beach.
The good thing about the inclement weather is that it puts me in an eating mood. And today I made home-made dukkah with fresh turkish bread, and hard-boiled eggs with salt flakes. The salt flakes I used are Sel Gris de Guérande that I picked up from Gewurzhaus on a recent trip to Melbourne. The salt flakes are:
Whole damp mineral sea salt from the prestigious salt ponds of Guerande, France, are completely natural and unrefined, harvested using traditional Celtic methods. The salt's colour comes from the exceptional French clay lining the ponds. Very soft yet flavourful, this salt is best used towards the end of cooking or on the table.
I picked up the Quail eggs from the new Coorparoo Markets this morning. I was excited that Brisbane finally has a dedicated farmers market, but was let down by the poor quality of produce there. I would recommend staying away; especially from level 2.
6-12 fresh quail eggs
salt flakes
chilled chardonnay
Gently prick the blunt ends of the eggs, place them in a saucepan and cover with cold water. As the water starts to boil, turn off the heat and leave them in the water to continue cooking for exactly 4½ minutes. Rinse under cold water, and serve with salt flakes and glasses of Chardonnay.

Where did New Thought come from?
There are a number of different New Thought histories ranging from folklore to mythology.
But what is the actual history of New Thought?
That depends on how real you want to get? If we look at the history of the United States, we find a woman named Anne Hutchinson. She was an autodidact meaning that she learned everything on her own. This was a time when women were not allowed to go to University, but Anne's family had a large library and she was the kind of person who was curious, creative and compassionate.
Anne Hutchinson was a key figure in the history of Religious Freedom!
Despite the fact that the Golden Age of the Elizabethan era occurred under Queen Elizabeth (1558–1603), these three qualities were not exactly encouraged in English women in 1638. English In fact, the combination was probably quite frightening to the fearful Abrahamics of her time. At this time, all forms of Abrahamism had fallen into decadence. European Abrahamics, as lost and confounded as the middle eastern Abrahamics of today, were generally frightened of strong intelligent women. Decadent Christianist males, like those raised in equally decadent Islamist homes today, could fly into paroxysms at the site of a woman's ankle. You can imagine what the site of a woman's cleavage could prompt?
Anne Hutchinson had radical ideas for her time and the Abrahamic community she was part of. These were 2nd quadrant Abrahamics (Christianism), a group of Puritans who had chosen to migrate to the "Americas" in order to create their own "Zion" (a type of Christianist caliphate) where they could practice the freedom to dominate the members of their sect and force them to live according to their devout (mentally ill) dictates. They displaced the indigenous people of Massachusetts first through terror and then genocide similar to the plans of ISIS for Europe. While ISIS murders Yazids, Christians, Druze, Jews and any Islamist that does not fit their criteria, slave holding Puritans mainly murdered natives while creating their personal paradise which most today would call a religious hell on earth.
Anne's beliefs were simple and aligned with the actual teachings of Yesua (Christ). She believed that to live according to his teachings, all one needs is to live a life guided by his positive precepts. This was a cause for concern for the leaders of the colony who followed a strict dominator model common to many Abrahamic sects. They promulgated a strict set of rules similar to Sharia law which enabled them to maintain strict control of their flock.
Anne formed her understandings based on interpretations of the bible, in combination with John Cotton's teachings, deriving a core belief that the biblical teaching: "the Kingdom is within" means the Holy Spirit dwells within all people. Understanding that this belief in personal closeness and oneness with the Almighty could be misconstrued as pride rather than sanctity; Anne was careful not to share her views while still in England.
Fervently believing she was called to serve, Anne had faith that once in America, she could share unfold her truth. Anne was blessed with clairvoyance and knew the exact day of their arrival to the colony in advance. When John Cotton became aware of her deep mystic faith and abilities he began to question the inclusion of Anne's family into his congregation.
Although Puritans did not burn witches until over 50 years later, the idea that a woman had deep partnership beliefs and could be clairvoyant was a threat to the patriarchal Abrahamics of Massachusetts. Puritanism was a patriarchal path that adhered to the dominator model, thus when Anne Hutchinson began teaching her unique "Covenant of Grace" in which faith and love were the primary precepts, charges of "heresy" were brought against her.
The official charge leveled was "antinominianism." The accusers conflated the charge of rejecting established morality with a charge that Anne was rejecting the premise of their belief that Heaven is limited to a small number of people. They also accused her of promoting the idea that "whatever a person believes is of no consequence to the Divine."
ChargeD with Antinominianism!?!
While her teachings seem logical and insightful today, devout Abrahamics of her time, in particular those practicing Christianism, were only beginning to extract themselves from centuries of decadent patterns common to the quadrants of Abrahamism.
Anne Hutchinson's teachings can be distilled into four basic principles which are quite shocking to fundamentalist adherents in any of the four quadrants of Abrahamic Thought:
- Life is meant to be lived as a celebration, not as a perpetual state of mourning.
- It is not appropriate to push anyone to convert to any form on Abrahamic faith including Christianism because each person is on an inevitable journey to Divine Awakening.
- Every person, regardless of what he or she looks like is a Divine Reflection.
- Being born a woman is a blessing, not a curse.
Anne Hutchinson's ideas represent an awakening from the deep delusions that characterized the decadent Abrahamics of her time and place. One of the great challenges for all adherents to Abrahamic Thought is the tendency for "devout" believers to fall into delusions which precipitate decadent behavior patterns including pushing their form of Abrahamism on others. This is one of the main reason that societies which are rooted within the soil of Abrahamic culture do not thrive until a firm separation of religion and governance is established so that Civil Society can flourish.
Roman cultural encounters with Abrahamic Thought ultimately resulted in the eventual decline and destruction of first the Western Empire and later the Eastern Empire. Technology, both social, intellectual and mechanical went through a drastic decline until the European Rebirth which is called the Renaissance.
Anne Hutchinson's ideas are embodied within certain forms of late 19th Century New Thought which were heavily influenced by Christianism: such as Unity, and early Divine Science. Today Anne Hutchinson's ideas are best reflected by the teachings of the UFBL.
Another suggested history of the emergence of New Thought traces its beginning to Thomas Paine and the Deists.
Others suggest that New Thought began with the Transcendentalists, in particular Emerson and Thoreau.
The classic history of New Thought is that it began with Phineas Quimby, but this story is fraught with problems primarily due to a failure on the part of some historians to understand the nature of the Animal Magnetism and Mesmerist movements.
The ideas of New Thought can certainly be traced back at least as far as Anne Hutchinson, the history of New Thought as an expression which becomes capitalized begins with groups of Abolitionists and Suffragettes who were tired of old thought forms justifying slavery and gender bias.

In the context of law firm knowledge management, there may be some additional issues we have to face. Best practices within a law firm can cover content (e.g., model documents) and process (e.g., electronic discovery procedures). But arriving at best practices regarding content requires a different kind of effort than that required for a recommended process.
For just about any business challenge, there really is no such thing as absolute best practices. Best practices are very dependent on the specific challenge, context, and capabilities of the company.
Before blindly copying a competitor's best practice, or assuming a historic best practice will continue to provide positive results, ask three questions:
• Are market circumstances similar?
• Are corporate contexts similar?
• Is the practice "modular," with few interactions with other corporate systems?
If the answers to these questions are yes, then mimicking best practice can succeed. If the answer to any of these questions are no, think twice. Following so-called best practice might lead to disappointing results.
With respect to process-related best practices, gathering and analyzing a large cross-section of firm experience should reveal what behavior is more likely than not to lead to success (or avoid disaster). In this case, the task is primarily to identify and describe those preferred behaviors in writing, and then train colleagues to follow them.
When it comes to content-related best practices, however, success depends largely on the ability of the lawyer to comprehend a business proposal and capture it in the form of a legally-enforceable agreement. A best practices guide can help the lawyer with the analytical and mechanical process of preparing that agreement, but it generally cannot dictate the final words. Those words are almost entirely dependent on the details of the specific business deal. So the challenge of content-focused best practices is to reduce the number of moving parts, to limit the areas in which the lawyer must exercise drafting discretion. In practice this means ensuring you have bullet-proof boilerplate language, augmented by a large annotated clause library on which the lawyer can draw in lieu of drafting from scratch.
But here's an additional wrinkle: once you know the right way to do electronic discovery or a due diligence review, for example, that guidance holds until there is a major change in technology or the allocation of risks. By contrast, best practices with respect to content are in a constant state of flux. Market conditions change and have an immediate impact on content. Equally pressing are refinements arising from changes in case law and legislation. In this context, creating and maintaining content-related best practices requires constant vigilance and consistent follow through. And now we're talking real money.
In an earlier discussion among large law firm KM managers, we bemoaned the paucity of written best practices in most firms. Given the costs and complications of creating and maintaining content-related best practices, perhaps this lack is completely understandable.

Tango Fiesta ReviewsView All (8 total)
There's just enough plot here to act as a vehicle for the many cheesy one-liners which are the meat of this game's script.
Tango Fiesta has a few nice touches here and there, but nothing really in the way of originality. It's not the best twin-stick shooter out there, by a long mile. And it isn't even the best eighties action film inspired game either. If you like some couch co-op shooting action, then it may be worth a look, but wait until it goes on sale.
Between poor controls and downright tedious gameplay, Tango Fiesta fails to incentivise players to invest in its tough-guy premise.
Tango Fiesta is a fun action-packed release on PS4 that is very fun in single player, and even more fun with some buddies in local co-op. The game gets crazy hectic and challeging with a full group, but that's a big part of its charm, right? If you're up for the challenge, then you should get this tribute to the 1980's action movies today!

Close the Gap
When we get it right in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health, we get it right for everyone
I often describe myself as an Aboriginal man who loves being a doctor and working one-on one with patients.
Peter O'Mara
Stronger Together – Partnerships in Health the Way Forward
On 12 February 2020, I listened to yet another Prime Minister announce that efforts toward closing the gap on Aboriginal and Torres Strait health were not working. We are still failing. Yet there were glimpses of hope that a 'circuit breaker' would bring much needed change.
Jaki Adams-Barton
Looking Back on Closing the Gap
Aboriginal Australia has a long history. Mind bogglingly long.
Tom Widdup
Institutional racism in healthcare directly linked to poor health outcomes
The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW), the national agency for statistics and information about health and welfare in Australia, recently stated that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have to wait much longer than non-Indigenous people for elective surgery [1].
Dr Chris Bourke
A Question of Time
I've been thinking about 'time' recently. As a person that has grown up immersed in the Western precepts of time as a commodity to be measured, quantified and sold, it can be difficult to think outside of the concept of time that I have been taught from the beginning.

School Meals
In April 2009, Oregon's unemployment rate was 12%, the second highest in the country. This represents a dramatic increase since the beginning of the recession in December 2008 when the state's unemployment rate was just 8.1% (http://www.bls.gov/cps). One result of the economic situation is an increase in the demand for emergency food boxes and other types of food assistance. Oregon has a history of food insecurity. In 2008, 12.4% of the state's population was living in households that struggle with hunger or were food insecure. One important way that families are able to access additional food and meet the nutritional needs of their members is through the school lunch program. Started in 1946, and expanded to include breakfast in 1966, the National School Lunch Program provides free and reduced school meals to children from families who meet eligibility guidelines. In Oregon, a child from a family of four with an income of $2,297 a month would be eligible for free meals, and $3,269 per month is eligible for reduced price meals. Since the 2003-2004 school year, the number of Oregon children eligible for the program has been above 40%. The number of school lunches served by schools in the metroscape has increased from the 2007-2008 to 2008-2009 school year. Yamhill County served an average of 10,000 more free lunches per month in 2008-2009 than in 2007-2008. And in Clackamas County, nearly 3,000 additional students were eligible for reduced price lunches each month.

The 'crime' of Arkas was to publish a cartoon with a character saying 'I have trust in the Government. It has its feet planted firmly in the clouds'. A torrent of abuse followed, including threats.
In normal circumstances this could be taken as the usual troll like activity of the inadequate, but these are not normal circumstances in Greece and the level of abuse is symptomatic of the drift to the extremes of left and right wing thought in Greece. They are connected by their shared nationalism and unless the drift is halted, the extremes of thought may become extremes of violent action.
Yannis Ktistakis, a professor of human rights at the University of Rodopi told Reuters, incidents such as the attack on Arkas are uncovering the deep splits in Greek society; "These are not just attacks by frustrated unemployed people, the climate has deteriorated".
A few days before Sunday's referendum the Bar Association in Athens was recently debating the legality of Sunday's referendum stormed by about 50 protestors who believed it was not. They shouted at the members "We are building gallows for you!"
Arkas, a recluse whose true identity is not known, has experienced similar treatment and written that he was 'painfully surprised' that the comment directed at him were 'more appropriate to the age of homo errectus.'
Perhaps this respected satirists thought his country had moved on from the dark days of the post Second World War period, but in many ways it has not and poverty is revealing the dividing lines.
After liberation from the Nazis in 1945 the Greeks turned on each other fighting a civil war between the returned Government in exile, and communist forces, with the government side triumphing. But the divisions remained. In 1967 'The Colonels' seized power and ruled as a junta until 1974.
The governments which followed parcelled out power, favours, and jobs to their supporters, including hiring hundreds of thousands of people into state sector jobs many of which were not required. They oversaw a corrupt inefficient system which failed to raise taxes to pay for a flawed welfare system with self crippling pension payments. Then, after cooking the books to join the Euro, they embarked on a borrowing spree at low rates, spent the lot, and then admitted they couldn't pay it back.
As austerity fell upon the people, they turned in increasing numbers to the extremes. The rise of the fascist Golden Dawn movement (symbol on left) is one example, the hard line socialist Syriza party is another. Alas, when coming to power Syriza continued the corrupt practice of handing out jobs to supporters and relatives whilst simultaneously refusing to tackle the vested interests which prop them up.
The extremes are watching the meltdown with lascivious interest. History shows us that the poorer the people become, the more they flee the centre.
Unless Europe helps its Greek neighbours to stay on their feet, there is a risk of serious social upheaval. That in turn would boost parties even further to the left than Syriza, and versions of Golden Dawn.
Both will wrap themselves in the flag of the country, as will some of the more extreme elements in the military. It is noticeable that among all the austerity measures, no-one has taken on the military budget which at 4% of GDP is far higher than almost every other country in NATO.
The men and women of violence are already in town. The remnants of 17 November which has carried out multiple terrorist murders is still about, as is 'Revolutionary Struggle a far left paramilitary group which carried out 13 bomb attacks between 1996 and 2000.
Also watching are the Russians, who have longed for a greater foothold in the Aegean ever since the communists lost the civil war. That Russia is run by right wing authoritarians will not bother the Greek left as they have their own streak of right wing authoritarianism to fall back on so long as they disguise it as being for the good of the noble Greek people.
It often said that Greek is the birthplace of Democracy. Even if that were true, it doesn't mean that the roots of modern Greek democracy are deep.

Yesterday, the American Motorcyclist Association filed an amicus brief with the United States Supreme Court in a little publicized motorcyclist's rights case titled Ryan Austin Collins v. Commonwealth of Virginia. It is a Suzuki case which is one of the reasons readers here may not have heard of it. You may care about it anyway.
"On June 4, 2013, Officer Matthew McCall of the Albemarle County Police Department was patrolling on Route 29 near the border of Albemarle County and the City of Charlottesville when he observed a traffic infraction by the operator of an orange and black motorcycle with an extended frame. Officer McCall activated his emergency lights and attempted to stop the motorcycle, but the motorcycle eluded him at a high rate of speed."
Several weeks later the Suzuki outran David Rhodes, another Albemarle County cop. Rhodes eventually came to suspect that the speedy rider was Ryan Collins. Collins denied he had the Suzuki.
No Warrant
Eventually, Rhodes entered Collins' property while Collins was gone without a warrant and found the speeding motorcycle under a motorcycle cover. When he looked at the VIN, Rhodes determined that the bike was stolen. When Collins returned, he denied having ridden the motorcycle. Rhodes then searched Collins and found the bike key in Collins pocket.
Collins argued that the warrantless search was illegal. Eventually, the Supreme Court of Virginia ruled that, because Collins' vehicle was a motorcycle and not a car or truck, the officer who searched under Collins' motorcycle cover did not need a warrant to do so."
In yesterday's friend of the court brief, the AMA argued that the police should have a warrant before they can legally search a parked motorcycle. The brief argues that the "Court's analysis should not be affected by the fact the vehicle searched was a motorcycle rather than a car or truck…. There is nothing inherently suspicious – and no inherent justification for a search – in the use or ownership of a motorcycle."
In a press release issued today, AMA President and CEO Rob Dingman said that "motorcyclists' rights can be threatened at all levels – and branches – of government.'
"The AMA and its members must be vigilant at all times, because we can never know where the next threat will be," Dingman said. "The U.S. Supreme Court is the final arbiter on matters of Constitutional rights, and the Court's decisions direct the enforcement of law across the country at all levels. When motorcyclists' freedoms are before the Court, it's critical that we speak forcefully and convincingly to defend those rights."

Physiotherapy Clinic located
in the heart of Tullamore!
Sports Injuries
We have many patients who travel the length and bredth of the country to seek an opinion they trust on all types of sports injurys. This type of trust does not come easily or is regarded lightly.
It comes from us trying to do the best for our patients at all times and being honest and open about the problem and the solution. We do not offer gimicks or false promises.
Sports injury is an odd concept in a way because it really means an injury that is sustained whilst playing sport. Mechanically a sprained ankle walking the dog is the same as a sprained ankle playing rugby. However it is fair to say that the level of rehab required is different. The demands on the control, strength and flexibility of a rugby playing ankle is much more than the dog walking one. The concept therefore of a Sports Injury is in the appreciation of the goals of the Rehabilitation.
As our practice has worked with the highest levels of athletes in the world – Olympic & Para Olympic athletes, Inter County Gaelic Players, Professional Rugby Players & Professional Golfers we understand the concept of elite sport. As many of us have also participated in Sport with various levels of success we know what it feels to be on the 'pointy' end of rehab and injury.
Some of the common Sports Injuries treated at Physio Tullamore include;
Foot pain – Plantar fasciitis, Bruised heel
Ankle pain – Sprained ankle, Broken ankle, Achilles tendonitis
Lower leg – Shin splints, Calf strain
Thigh pain – Hamstring strain, Thigh strain, Contusion
Knee pain – ACL injury, Jumpers knee, Patella pain syndrome, Osgood Schlatter's Disease
Hip & groin – Groin strain, Piriformis syndrome, Gilmore's groin, Hernia
Lower back – Sacroiliac joint pain, Muscle strains, Sciatica
Shoulder pain – Rotator cuff tear, AC joint sprain, Impingement syndrome, Dislocated shoulder
Elbow pain – Tennis elbow, Golfer's elbow
Wrist & hand – Wrist sprain, Broken wrist, Finger sprain, Thumb sprain
Have you any further Questions?

In which I was accidentally gone for several days.
Hello everyone! I'm back and I never intended to be gone. I disappeared for a while for three reasons:
- Adorable dog from this post chewed through my laptop cord.
- I have been super busy
- I have been obsessing over the 5th Wave trilogy in my limited free-time. And by obsessing, I mean it almost rivals my obsession with Les Mis. I know.
So what ended up happening is I ended up buying a new laptop. So thank you, Best Buy guy who helped me. I startled you with my extremely specific criteria, and yet you completely delivered. You will never read this, because, while you did ask about my blog, I failed to mention the name of it. Still, I'm going to say thank you.
Unfortunately, even when I had the new laptop, I couldn't post, because all of my files, including the template for my featured images, were still on my old laptop, which was deader than dead. So I had to order a charger and then wait several days for it to get here.
But yes. Prepare for a flood of posts, because I've drafted a lot of them while I've been away. I just couldn't post them because I couldn't access my featured images template. Stinks when all your files are on a dead laptop.
I missed you all so much, and I'm excited to be back!

Hooray!! We finally got to see our cute boy! Of course, he had his fist planted in his eye 80% of the time. Then, because that wasn't enough to hide behind, he added his legs and feet up by his face, too! Wow, to be that flexible!!
Here he at least moved his hand to upside his head...
And here he's trying to put his foot up his nose.
He's measuring perfectly dead average for his age. That's good. Next time we see him he'll finally be outside the belly. We can't wait!

Blockchain Technology for Retirement Could Reduce Leakage
Blockchain technology for retirement plans could help America's workers save more for retirement.
So says a new article in Forbes, penned by Adam Bergman, President of IRA Financial Group and IRA Financial Trust Company, which provides self-directed retirement plans. Blockchain technology for retirement plans has far-reaching implications for the 401k participants.
To understand how blockchain technology for retirement impacts 401k participants one first must comprehend, "exactly, what is blockchain? According to Mr. Bergman, "… a blockchain is an online ledger that contains any and all transactions that occur there. Blockchain technology is generally referred to as "decentralized" since it's not backed by one central, governing body. Instead, anyone can access the blockchain to check the authenticity of a transaction. Further, since blockchain relies on cryptography, there's no way to amend a transaction once the transaction becomes embedded as part of the ledger. In other words, blockchain could be thought of as an advanced Excel datasheet that is decentralized, accurate and secure."
How does blockchain technology for retirement apply to the U.S. retirement system? Currently, Americans are largely on their own when it comes to moving their retirement savings from one employer to another. Currently, there is no central database keeping tabs on participants' retirement accounts. There's also no single system that enables workers to roll their retirement plan from one employer's plan to another when they change jobs. Consequently, many retirement accounts are abandoned when workers switch jobs, and participants can also forget about the left-behind funds. Due to this widespread plan leakage, according to a 2017 NBC News report cited by Mr. Bergman in his article, $2 trillion in 401(k) savings could be lost when Americans change jobs.
Employers can help mitigate this by rolling former employee balances of less than $5,000 to a safe harbor IRA. However, many of these account holders can't be identified, which means the likelihood of them ever receiving the money is slim.
However, blockchain technology for retirement could change all of that. It could be part of a solution that keeps track of all Americans' retirement accounts — including former employer 401(k) plan accounts and IRAs — in a way that's secure, transparent, and easily accessible. According to Mr. Bergman, advantages of using blockchain to track retirement accounts are many: "No longer would Americans lose track of where all their retirement accounts were being held. American workers would have a clearer picture of all their retirement assets and would likely be able to make wiser saving and investment decisions. In addition, individuals over the required minimum distribution (RMD) age would have an easier time determining the RMD amount due for the year in question, based on the aggregate value of all their 401(k) plans and IRAs."
There are some hurdles to widespread adoption of blockchain technology for retirement plans. For starters, it would need to be adopted by all participants. A blockchain that isn't being used by the top three retirement plan providers, for example, would render it "incomplete and ineffective," Mr. Bergman noted. It would also require the IRS to make participation in the blockchain mandatory for all retirement account custodians and administrators — not an easy task.
The positive impacts of blockchain technology on Americans' retirement savings are obvious. The implementation of blockchain technology for retirement across the industry is less so.

Traveling is one of the greatest pleasures in the world. Marvels of new places, meet new people and their culture, is undoubtedly an inexhaustible source of learning and experience. But there is another positive to take your bags and visit a new destination point: According to a recent study, led by social psychologist William Maddux, our mind is our body most benefit from each trip, and in ways that may not like you had stopped to think, according to an article which includes the popular website Buzzfeed.
- Increase your creativity: "People should be integrated into a new culture is more creative long term," says the researcher. And so, as this process open your mind, it forces you to think in a different way and to handle yourself between ideas and different perspectives to the usual for you. This can be named with the term "cognitive flexibility", and greater flexibility, more creativity.
- Greater confidence: Relate with people from other parts of the world increases your faith in humanity. "While most countries know the people, their widespread sense of confidence increases," said Maddux. See that the world may be going good things, it makes it easier to trust that others are doing things the right way.
- Solve problems: Some studies, next to Maddux, have shown that students living abroad were 20% more inclined to solve problems than those who were not in a different country. This is how being exposed to the influence of another culture opens your mind in many ways, helping you to realize that there are multiple choice questions, and problems with many solutions.
- Being humble: When you meet people with compelling stories, or visit powerless places you will rediscover how small a human on planet Earth and learn to give things their proper perspective.
Turkey, with 40 million international visitors, is the 6th largest tourist destination in the world
- You'll be more willing to try new things: On every trip you'll meet interesting challenges, with activities or situations that face you never imagined. Some do not occur regularly, so you're always ready to try and fill with incredible memories you'll never forget. But it also moves into your daily life.
- Clearer mind: Being in touch with nature full of clear your mind; being in open spaces, it allows you to breathe large amounts of air that refresh your senses. In a new study in the journal Environmental Psychology, researchers found that people who simply saw a picture of nature for only 40 seconds had improved focus and implementation of its next task. You would not need to go outside, but the results will be better if they are in direct contact with nature.
- It helps you reinvent: Travel as a process of reinvention is a fairly widespread idea. Many people take trips as an opportunity to devote time to themselves, to start a new beginning, or look for a sense of purpose in their lives. "Take a pause lets you pause, contemplate life and potentially mark a path in your projects. It allows you to analyze your present from a distance – physically and metaphorically, and more clearly.
- Less fears: How to say no to the adventures you raise the holidays? During this season, you're willing to risk. Matt Long, a professional traveler, author of the blog LandLopers and has traveled more than 75 countries agrees. "Over time I have conquered more fears, such as fear of being devoured by sharks, make mistakes when I'm learning a new language … Traveling has made me braver, in another country, but also at home.".
- You will reach greater happiness: And not just because you can take time to relax and disconnect. A study in the journal Psychological Science an experience (like vacations) will make you feel happy, much more than tangible objects.
- Highlight your return to work: A recent study by the U.S. Travel Association found that people taking holidays has 6.5% chance of getting a promotion at work, those who remain for months and months at their desks.
- More patience: Think about how much to expect during a trip. Security at the airport waiting for your flight, find a place with free, locate an address in a city you do not know, wait bus / train / boat … Although they are things seem tedious, the end will leave learning and significant growth they are building a stronger long-term character.
- Overcoming a loss: If you just lost something (a job, a loved one, an opportunity), Journey! Take a trip helps you to restore a sense of yourself and how you feel about your loss. To place you in unusual situations, forces you to strive to make the best of you, to challenge you and avoid working on "autopilot".
- It makes you feel more alive: You just live an experience that left you thousands of fun and challenging situations. No more to say to know that you will feel able to eat the world.

R in B Restaurant in Box
Modern French kitchen meets Phra Khanong karaoke bar decor.
New French restaurant R 'in' B Restaurant in Box promises authentic cuisine created by a French chef. The modern, white and green dining room and outdoor terrace are just the place to enjoy a menu that includes traditional eclair, both sweet and savory: the savory Mediterranean is filled with tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, parma ham, and vegetable carpaccio (B249), while the sweet finger eclairs are stuffed with fruity cream (B49). They also offer a "build your own breakfast" option, which can include the likes of assorted pastries (B70), chouquettes (small cream-filled pastries coated with pearl sugar, B50), or bacon (B30).
R'in'B has all the attributes of a typical budget "modern" restaurant—fake-wood floor, acidic color scheme, plastic plants, laminated chipboard furniture—crossed with a Phra Khanong karaoke lounge. Despite not being empty when we last visited, the restaurant feels completely joyless, and it quickly becomes clear why when tasting the gloopy, poorly prepared food.
Our disappointment is compounded by the fact that, underneath the bad cooking, there are traces of what appears to be good produce. The fresh sea bass, prawns and muscles in the blanquette of the sea (B419) are completely overshadowed by a stodgy sauce, while the accompanying street-food-style yellow rice is just as overcooked as the rest of the dish.
The steeply-priced, underportioned beef bourguignon (B439) suffers a similar fate, tasting as if it has been boiled at too high a heat for far too long and flavored with a red wine from 7-Eleven. The cilantro garnish, floury French fries and boring side salad do nothing to save it.
The soup of the day (B129) proves the myth that "of the day" menu items should nearly always be avoided. The one we tried was a bogstandard tomato soup that had completely lost its freshness, made worse by some unpleasant tom yam undertones.
Dessert is no better, whether it's the éclairs (B49)—one lemon, which tasted like detergent, and one salt caramel, which didn't taste of anything—or the dense cannelés bordelais (B20).
Are there any saving graces? Well, service comes with a smile, and part of the restaurant's revenue goes directly to Enfants du Mekong, a foundation which provides school fees to underprivileged children in Laos, Burma, the Philippines, Cambodia, Vietnam and Yunnan province in China. Oh, and the ducky salad (B249), while uninspired, has a vinaigrette with the right balance of sweet and sour, as well as fresh, flavorful leaves and nicely smoked duck.
But overall, unless you're willing to endure a long and painful assault on the palate in the name of a good cause, stay away from R'in'B.
