North Korea said it had successfully tested a new mid-to-long range missile on Sunday aimed at verifying its capability to carry a "large scale heavy nuclear warhead".
The North fired a ballistic missile that landed in the sea near Russian Federation on Sunday in a launch that Washington called a message to South Korea, days after its new president took office pledging to engage Pyongyang in dialogue. Regardless of what Pyongyang may have intended, the likely result is that the new administration will have fewer options to work with.
Washington and Tokyo called for an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council, which was scheduled for Tuesday afternoon. "The greatest responsibility for bringing North Korea to its".
North Korea has said that its Sunday's test-fire of a ground-to-ground ballistic missile proved the missile is capable of carrying a large nuclear warhead.
In April the North put dozens of missiles on show at a giant military parade through the streets of Pyongyang, including one that appeared to be the type of device launched on Sunday.
This "lofted" trajectory would be equivalent to over 4,500km if launched at a standard trajectory, putting United States bases in Guam well in range.
The world has become increasingly concerned about North Korea's nuclear ambitions.
U.S. Treasury yields dropped to 2.292 percent, building on Friday's loss when they ended at 2.333 percent, down from Thursday's close of 2.4 percent and their biggest one-day drop in more than three weeks.
Although there are still plenty of technical hurdles to be overcome, many analysts believe North Korea will eventually achieve Kim's stated goal of developing an ICBM that can reach the mainland United States.
Photos from the March 7 edition of the Rodong Sinmun newspaper, of a missile test launch the previous day.
North Korean propaganda must be considered with wariness, but if confirmed, the claim marks another big step forward in the country's escalating efforts to field a nuclear-tipped missile capable of reaching the USA mainland.
South Korea's newly elected President Moon Jae-in, who is seeking deeper engagement with the North, said it was a "reckless provocation" while China, North Korea's only real ally, is urging restraint. "But putting China and South Korea in an awkward position with unending provocations will ultimately not help Pyongyang create the conditions for dialogue with the US", Kim added.
"The South Korean people are longing for new politics, new society and new life and the election was a reflection of this popular sentiment", Ji told reporters in Beijing.
Most Asian currencies edged up against the dollar on Monday, shrugging off threats from a ransomware attack that locked up more than 200,000 computers in more than 150 countries, and a missile test by North Korea.
In fact, it took a very high trajectory after being launched from Kusong in western North Korea and landed in the Sea of Japan outside of Japan's exclusive economic zone. Reaching the U.S. West Coast would require a missile with a range of more than 8,000 km.
Experts say it could have flown for 2,500 miles if launched at a flatter angle.
North Korea is not thought to be able yet to make a nuclear warhead small enough to mount on a long-range missile, though some outside analysts think they can arm shorter range missiles with warheads; each new nuclear and longer-range missile test is part of the North's attempt to build a nuclear-tipped long-range missile.

Check out what other parents are saying.
Research has shown that kids who stay physically fit can concentrate longer. Our well-rounded daily schedule includes time for supervised homework completion. Our busy parents know they have a dedicated academic partner to help make sure their children don't slip behind in school. We understand how much parents have on their plate everyday so we do everything we can to help them. Even though most homework is completed every day, we still encourage parents to review their work for accuracy and completeness. Our parents and staff work as a team. The children soon realize that doing well in school is a top priority. They learn that completing their homework is very important, and that it's their responsibility. After, even a short time in our program the children look forward to their daily schedule, including quiet homework time.
We recognize that some parents have jobs that require them to be at work early which makes it impossible to drive their kids to school. Drop your child off early at one of our After School Centers and we will take them to school for you! Leave your morning and afternoon school transportation hassle to us! (Before care is only $10/week. It is available at the Seminole location, and not available for all schools.)
We have been teaching martial arts in Pinellas County since 1980. That is more than 35 years! Children enjoy learning how to defend themselves while also learning the value of discipline, courtesy and respect. Martial arts are for everyone. Athletic and non-athletic children benefit equally! Karate Kids are Great Kids!
Parents constantly tell us how much they appreciate how well their children demonstrate better manners at home and at school after becoming a member of our After School Program and martial arts community. We set aside time each day to teach the importance of being a good citizen, friend and neighbor. Honesty, responsibility, goals, sharing, family values, leadership, gratitude, humility and healthy lifestyle choices are just a few of the character traits and values your child will learn.
As physical fitness has become less available to our children the number of overweight and obese children has risen dramatically throughout America. Children have become more sedentary, less energetic and more averse to physical activity. Our "Karate Kids" are rewarded for their physical activity through our partnership with the Presidential Active Lifestyle Award Challenge (PALA).
Bullying has become a serious problem with young children and teenagers. Our anti-bullying education aligns perfectly with our martial arts training. Children who learn how to handle aggressive confrontations with skill, instead of fear, walk away from these negative situations standing taller, not smaller. They learn how to become leaders.
Children are picked up from school daily and safely transported to Authentic Martial Arts. We have two locations; Largo and Seminole. We pick up from 18 local elementary schools and sponsor almost all of their Character Education programs. This long-term commitment, since 2003, resulted in being awarded Business Partner of the Year by Pinellas County Schools.

A new study by SESP associate professor Diane Schanzenbach and Elizabeth Cascio of Dartmouth College finds that when states have universal public preschools, low-income children are more likely to enroll in preschool. For low-income children, such programs lead to more quality time with their mothers and higher achievement test scores as late as eighth grade.
For higher-income children, the impact is quite different. When public preschool programs are available, these children are likely to shift from private to public preschools. For this group, there is less impact on number of children enrolled but a significant decrease in childcare expenses. In addition, the researchers found no increase in the children's test scores.
Universal preschool is a timely topic because of the Preschool for All initiative President Obama proposed, to be funded by federal and state funds. This initiative calls for major increases in the number of four-year-olds enrolled in public preschools and in the quality of these programs nationwide. A large body of research shows the value of early childhood education for disadvantaged children.
To investigate the potential impact of Obama's proposal, Cascio and Schanzenbach studied universal preschool programs that Georgia and Oklahoma have offered since the 1990s. The researchers draw on data from multiple sources to estimate the impacts of these state programs — which are considered "models" for access and quality — on preschool enrollment as well as family and child outcomes.
Cascio and Schanzenbach see mothers' education having a striking impact on preschool enrollment. When universal preschool is available, four-year-olds whose mothers have no more than a high school education show an 18 to 20 percent enrollment gain. In contrast, children of more educated mothers show only a 12 to 15 percent gain.
Overall, the researchers conclude that with universal preschool more four-year-olds would be enrolled in preschool. However, if access is free regardless of income, children switching from private to public preschools could lead to "crowding out."
Because about 40 percent of the participants with more educated mothers would have otherwise enrolled in private preschool, "crowd-out" adds as much as 19 percent in costs to taxpayers. Universal preschool "would result in substantial crowd-out, driving up costs and limiting program efficacy," the authors say. "Specifying the degree of cost sharing for middle-class families in the Obama plan therefore presents policymakers with an important tradeoff," the authors say.
Regarding the impact of universal preschool on mothers' employment, Cascio and Schanzenbach find some evidence of an increase in the likelihood that lower-education mothers become employed. However, the increase is restricted to the first few years of the program.
The academic gains from universal preschool are greater for disadvantaged children. Lower-income children show modest, sustained increases in math scores by eighth grade, while higher-income children show no positive impacts.
To improve outcomes and obtain the same positive impacts without inducing as much crowd-out, the authors speculate that the proposal could be modified — such as by improving existing Head Start preschool programs for lower-income children. However, with a targeted program such as Head Start might not match the test score gains seen in universal state public programs if "peer effects" are an important factor, the paper suggests.
Diane Schanzenbach is an associate professor in the Human Development and Social Policy program at Northwestern University's School of Education and Social Policy. An economist, she is also a faculty research fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research. She studies education policy, child health, and food consumption. Her most recent work investigates the impact of school accountability policies and school reform policies on student performance and other outcomes.

PARK CITY, Utah (AP) The U.S. national bobsled and skeleton teams will have a much different look this winter.
Olympic medalists Steven Holcomb, Elana Meyers Taylor, Lauryn Williams, Jamie Greubel Poser, Justin Olsen and Matt Antoine were among the 28 athletes were selected Sunday for this season's World Cup rosters, while another six skeleton sliders were picked to compete in the Intercontinental Cup series.
Of those who are World Cup-bound, 17 were not on tour last season.
''We're in a rebuilding phase as we enter the next Olympic quad,'' U.S. Bobsled and Skeleton Federation CEO Darrin Steele said. ''And our coaching staff couldn't be more impressed by what these athletes brought to the line this season.''
Meyers Taylor will drive in both women's bobsled and in four-man events, making her the first U.S. athlete to compete in both disciplines. She finished third in the four-man selection race Saturday and now will try to meet international eligibility criteria in time to race against men at the World Cup opener in Lake Placid, New York next month.
Her international debut in four-man is expected to be in Park City this week in the lower-tier North American Cup series.
Greubel Poser and Olympic veteran Jazmine Fenlator will join Meyers Taylor as women's pilots. Holcomb, Nick Cunningham and Codie Bascue will be men's bobsled pilots for World Cup races.
The pool of women's bobsled push athletes includes Williams, former national team member Cherrelle Garrett and rookies Natalie Deratt, Lauren Gibbs, Ajla Glavasevic and Michelle Howe. Olympic medalist Aja Evans, who is recovering from an injury, may be added to the roster later in the season.
Men's push athletes eligible for World Cup include Olsen, former national team member Adam Clark, development team athletes Adrian Adams, David Cremin and Sam Michener, and rookies Dustin Greenwood, Alex Harrison, James Reed, Carlo Valdes, Aaron Victorian and Casey Wickline.
Antoine, Kyle Tress and newcomer Stephen Garbett will compose the men's World Cup skeleton roster.
World Cup rookie Savannah Graybill won the women's skeleton selection-race series, with Annie O'Shea being tabbed as USA-2 for that circuit.
Allen Blackwell, Alex Ivanov, Greg West, Veronica Day, Kellie Delka and Megan Henry are the skeleton sliders going to the Intercontinental Cup series, which opens Nov. 21 in Lillehammer, Norway.

Lucky Bridle set to be crowned Pride of the North.
The "Pitmen's Derby" as the Northumberland Plate has long been known, is something of an anachronism, with the days when the week was a holiday for local miners, and the race run midweek now a distant memory. Its reputation as a handicap of note remains, however, and Saturday's renewal is a typically competitive one.
Ask anyone with a reputation as a judge of such events how to narrow such a big field down, you're liable to get a knowing nod and a lecture about how most people don't think the draw can be important over such a trip, but that it is, and furthermore, the lower your draw the better your chances. We're here to inform you that such wisdom is bunkum!
Last year's race saw the first 3 home drawn in single-figure stalls, and that's enough to keep this old myth rolling along for another decade, but closer inspection of the stats shows that there really isn't any hard and fast rule about where you ought to be drawn, with wide draws a potential disadvantage in the run to the opening turn, but not an insurmountable one, as Overturn showed when making every yard from the widest stall of all in 2010.
Similarly, it's deemed advantageous to be drawn on the inner rail, but given the scrimmaging which goes on among riders seeking to gain a good pitch, that can quickly turn into a coffin box, and if there is one stat you should bear in mind, it's the one which states that in the last twenty runnings of the race, only three of the eighty placed horses came from the innermost stall, and two of those three sneaked into the frame only via a photograph.
That figure includes a plethora of fancied runners in recent times, including the joint favourite Handsome Man last year (had stall 2 with nothing on his inside) and second favourite Motivado in 2012. We wouldn't fancy backing ante-post jolly Angel Gabrial to buck the trend at odds as short as 5/1, would you?
With Suegioo hit by the handicapper for his Chester Cup win, and bidding to become only the second horse to complete the double in forty years (the other, Ile de Re benefited from a farcical flag start when winning his Chester Cup, incidentally), there must be value elsewhere, and the most interesting of the others by some way is Lucky Bridle, who was a smart sort in France for Christophe Ferland before joining Willie Mullins.
The Bagenalstown trainer has developed a taste for British staying events, winning the Queen Alexandra again this year with Pique Sous, having landed the stayers' double there with Simenon a couple of years ago.
It's telling that he's leaving last week's hero at home and instead relies on Lucky Bridle, whose Newcastle-based owner Graham Wylie has long held an ambition to win the historic contest, and the signs are that the unexposed 5-y-o has been aimed at this race for some time. A close second over an inadequate trip at Cork last month, he promises to be suited by such a stamina test, and looks to have got in on the handicapper's blind side.
At bigger odds, it may pay to forgive Glenard a poor run at Haydock, which is easy enough to explain by the fact he lost a shoe before the start, and he was allowed to come home in his own time after a change of tactics.
His previous fifth in the Chester Cup was a creditable performance, and the longer trip on testing ground there seemed to stretch him. Back at 2m and with the prevailing fast ground looking in his favour, he isn't devoid of appeal by any means.
The BetBright Verdict
Win: Lucky Bridle @ 9/1
Each-way alternative: Glenard @ 18/1
The Northumberland Plate gets underway at 15.50 at Newcastle Racecourse tomorrow afternoon, let's hope the weather stays fine and it's another fabulous weekend of racing for all in attendance!

Social media has become extremely popular over the past decade. In fact, more than 500,000 users sign-up for Facebook every day with nearly three-quarters of U.S. adults active at least once per month on the network. While the financial services sector has been slow to adopt social media, new regulatory guidance has cleared the way for advisors to leverage these powerful mediums to attract new clients and keep existing clients engaged with their practice.
Let's take a look at some digital marketing tips that advisors may want to consider in order to maximize the effectiveness of their social media campaigns. (For more, see: Do's and Don'ts of Digital Marketing.)
Start With LinkedIn
With over 433 million users, LinkedIn has rapidly become the most popular social media network for financial advisors. In addition to having a wealthier demographic than other social media networks, LinkedIn makes it easier to take advantage of second- and third-degree connections to attract referrals and glean insights. These attributes make it an excellent starting point for financial advisors looking to use social media in their practice.
Financial advisors should start by creating a high-quality profile that includes a professional image, compelling headline, and as many details as possible. After investing some time in a profile, advisors should build connections with classmates, colleagues, and clients. Many advisors have also started asking clients for introductions to five or ten of their friends that might find value in their services—a simple act that can dramatically build networks.
The next step is to leverage LinkedIn to build relationships and land new clients. If an advisor has a blog, it's a good idea to share content that may benefit his or her connections, such as how to roll over a 401(k) or how much to save for retirement. Readers looking for more information may then reach out, engage, and eventually hire the advisor. It's also a good idea to check for relevant connections to new clients before meeting them in order to build rapport. (For more, see: LinkedIn/Microsoft Deal: What Advisors Should Know.)
Don't Spread Too Thin
There are many different social networks that are commonly used these days, including LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, and others. While some of these networks are natural places to make connections, others are primarily used for entertainment rather than business. Financial advisors should stick to social networks that have the greatest potential to deliver real value to their business, such as LinkedIn, Facebook, and perhaps Twitter.
Advisors should also carefully consider how much time they have to devote to keeping social media updated. It's much better to properly maintain a single account than to haphazardly manage three separate accounts. According to social media manager Buffer, LinkedIn should be updated once per day, Facebook should be updated five to 10 times per week, and Twitter should be updated at least five times per day in order to effectively build an audience.
A good approach for getting started is to focus on one social media network until you see some traction and then move on to other networks. Often times, starting all of the major social media networks at once will only result in burnout and a failure to realize any benefits at all. (For related reading, see: LinkedIn: How Advisors Can Use It to Grow.)
Be Purposeful
Many businesses treat social media as an afterthought, but these days, clients are looking for more engagement than ever before. This means that financial advisors should be purposeful when engaging with their audience and have a well-defined sense of what success is. For example, a good social media management process might look something like this:
- Brainstorm topics for a blog post based on feedback from clients and/or questions that come up in client meetings.
- Come up with a list of several catchy titles for a topic and test them on colleagues.
- Write a detailed 800- to 1,000-word blog post covering the topic that goes into greater detail than most other online content.
- Identify an image or two that will break up the content and can be used in social media to make the post stand out from the crowd.
- Post on social media networks and tag specific hashtags, groups, or people that may be especially interested.
- Respond to any feedback from the social media postings.
Advisors should also have a well-defined metric for success. If the goal is to build website traffic, they should install Google Analytics and carefully measure the success of their posts over time and then optimize for success. If the goal is to collect e-mails, they should have a compelling opt-in offer and engage the e-mail list with a weekly newsletter or other content. It's important to define what constitutes a return on investment for the social media effort.
The Bottom Line
Social media has become extremely popular over the past decade—even in the slow-to-adopt financial services industry. Advisors should begin by building a presence on LinkedIn and then slowly expand into other social media networks as they gain traction. It's also very important to have a well-defined definition of success and carefully measure these efforts over time to avoid falling into the traps that keep many businesses from realizing any benefits.

Heavy hitters E-40, Two Chainz, YG and Adrian Marcel headed to Stockton over the weekend for the Golden State Music Festival at Stockton Arena.
2 Chainz was back in the Bay Area last night with his 2 Good To Be T.R.U. Tour at Oakland's Fox Theater.
Another year of Hard Summer is in the books after thousands of electronic music fans converged on downtown LA for Hard Summer 2013 to see some of the biggest names in EDM and rap music, including Knife Party, Duck Sauce, Bassnectar and 2 Chainz.
2 Chainz, one of the top rappers out, was robbed at gunpoint Sunday afternoon in San Francisco before he performed at KMEL's Summer Jam concert, according to reports.
Bay Area hip hop and R&B station KMEL released the lineup today for its annual Summer Jam concert at Oracle Arena on June 9th.
Despite extreme heat and dust storms, attendees at the sold-out first weekend of Coachella got a great mix of first-time performers and seasoned veterans at the festival.
We're used to seeing flashy cars, jewelry and hot girls from rappers on Instagram, but few put as much time into documenting their diet than 2 Chainz.
2012 was a good year for rap music. Fresh faces like Kendrick Lamar and 2 Chainz (a long time bench player with Ludacris's Disturbing the Peace squad) made a major impact, while industry vets like Kanye West, El-P and Nas all returned with quality releases.
In a year full of quality hip-hop releases and big headlines, rapper Two Chainz arguably stands in front of the pack with his debut solo album hitting No. 1 on the Billboard charts and hit features with everyone from Big Krit to Kanye and Drake.
Oakland's 22 year old YouTube sensation Kreayshawn has teamed up with rising rapper 2 Chainz for a pair of new videos while announcing the August 14 release of her debut full length album Somethin 'Bout Kreay.

Things to Consider when Buying a Scroll Saw
The first thing that people what to know when starting with scrolling is what saw to buy. There are many things to consider whether you are buying your first scroll saw, or you are simply upgrading to a better one. If you really want to make an informed purchasing decision, then you should take this considerations seriously.
If you are doing a scrolling project, make sure that you don't' use pinned blades. What you will need are standard 5″ pinless blades. Pinned blades have advantages but they are not able to cut small inside details without drilling a very big hole to get the blade's pin through.
You should also consider if changing blades is easy or not. You can have scroll saw projects that have many holes. If this is the situation then you need to remove the end of the blade from the holder, thread it through the wood, then remount it in the holder many times. Choose a saw where this process can easily be done. The best saw to use in this case is a saw with an arm that can be raised and can be held in position. This makes the process easier than tool-less blade holders.
There are different speeds offered by many saws and you should not have a problem finding this feature in any price range. With many projects a slow blade speed is needed or sometimes you need to slow down the blades so that the edges of the wood will not be burned when you cut. You need to change belts in some scroll saws in order to change speeds. The best to get is a saw with an electronic speed control.
If the saw vibrates, it can be very distracting when you work so it is best if you find one with minimum vibrations. There are some saw designs that causes that saw to vibrate. The more expensive the saw that you buy, the lesser vibrations it makes. Mounting your saw on a stand, helps to reduce vibration. You can work with minimum vibration if your saw is sturdily mounted on a stand, and if that saw is also a heavy one. There are stores that sell stands for scroll saws.
The depth of the throat is very important for very large projects. A small throat will limit how big of the piece you can swing around on the table while you cut. If you don't want to rotate the work, the you can also use spiral blades.
You should also get the right size of table since it will be difficult for wood to be hanging off the side of the scrolls saw table.
Most of us have a budget for a scroll saw. There are benefit to buying a used scroll saw where you get more for your money than buying a new but cheap saw.

It's bedtime, and all you want to do is get to sleep. But, your mind is racing. You fret over the day's experiences, and feel agitated, irritated, and restless. The clock is ticking; you know just how many hours are left of the night. You exhaust yourself with worry. Finally, relief comes and you drift off to sleep. Sleep, glorious sleep. Then, without warning and for no apparent reason, you are awake... again. Your mind begins to race; you worry about how tired you will feel when the alarm clock shrills. Sound familiar? You have insomnia.
Insomnia is on the rise in America. Job, financial, family and relationship stresses, even global worries now permeate our lives to such a degree that, according to statistics, only a third of us are getting anywhere near enough sleep.
Insomnia can be so debilitating that those who suffer from it often resort to either a prescription or over-the-counter sleep aid. Sleep aids can provide effective, temporary relief, but some of them, benzodiazepines for example, are habit-forming drugs.
The hormone melatonin is known chiefly for its role as a sleep aid. Ample data substantiates that melatonin can induce sleep. Sixty percent of those who try melatonin report improved sleep quality, falling asleep faster, and staying asleep longer. In addition, timed-release melatonin has been shown to help patients wean themselves off of habit-forming sleeping pills.
However, research indicates that melatonin may be more than a sleep aid. New studies indicate that melatonin helps regulate a number of biological processes, including circadian rhythms, sleep, mood, reproduction, tumor growth, degenerative brain diseases, and aging.
Experimental evidence suggests that melatonin inhibits the growth of breast cancer tumors in animals and humans.
In this Hormonal Update we take a look at the many faces of melatonin.

The new year is here, and along with it comes the start of a new semester. As many of you may know, the first part of any semester is a horror movie with a sick twist. The plot being your ever-increasing tuition bill, and the twist being the smack in the face that is the unruly price of your textbooks. And what a truly sick twist it is.
Last week, I logged into my University's bookstore website to price check a couple of books that I will need for this semester of econ classes. I, like many other students thought, how expensive can a pile of papers really be? I typed in the first book's title and almost threw up. $475 dollars? Surely something was wrong. Who would pay such a price for a book? It couldn't be any of my classmates. No person of sound mind could rightly fork over that much money for 200 pages filled with black ink. Has demand increased so much as to warrant these price jumps? Have competitors not completely bankrupt these schools for basically robbing students blind? No, because students aren't really paying for these books. They haven't been for a while.
The government is paying for them. With money that it stole from your parents.
According to The Bureau of Labor Statistics, textbooks are just one of the goods that have experienced insane price increases over the years.
Notice, that in the graph above, the goods that have experienced the highest prices are the ones that have continually increasing government involvement.
This is a critical point in economics that needs to be understood on a host of different issues, from education to healthcare. When government intervenes in a trade between two parties on behalf of the buyer by subsidizing the good, it's price becomes irrelevant. Why would the buyer care about the price of said good if a third party is fronting the bill? Answer: They don't. And if that third party has an endless bankroll, what incentive does the seller have to keep prices low and be competitive? Answer: They don't. So, when the government decides to subsidize or outright offer student loans, we shouldn't be surprised when the schools take advantage and suck every dime they can out of the government.
The fact that the government is loaning money for college educations is going to cause our nation severe problems in the near future. Thanks to an immense demand spike, the value of a college education is slowly being degraded. With so many college graduates the job market is becoming saturated. This means fewer jobs for students who graduate. Students with no jobs can't afford to pay back their loans. Remember the last time the government encouraged lending to those who couldn't pay back their loans? "OOOO I MEMBER!" (see the latest season of South Park for the reference) Yeah the economy crashed.
Let's get the government out of higher education. Let's allow our universities to become price competitive, just like every other business market out there. Sink or swim. The university offering the best education at the lowest prices will win. Let's encourage businesses to hire our youth and offer tuition reimbursements to students studying in degrees pertinent to real world jobs. Let us dispel the myth that college should be free and instill in our children principles like saving money, personal responsibility and a sense of pride that will fuel them to be able to pay for their own school, and the education of their children.
But the more the left advocates for big government, increased regulations and "free tuition" for all, the more our economy and the people that contribute to it will suffer in the long run.

In the last six years Mountainside Fitness has raised more than $500,000 for Make-A-Wish Arizona.
CEO and Founder of Mountainside Fitness, Tom Hatten, has been on the board of Make-A-Wish Arizona for six years and served as chairman of the board of directors in 2015. Over the years Mr. Hatten has enlisted Mountainside Fitness members and employees to help raise money in order to grant Arizona children's wishes.
Mountainside Fitness has done this in many ways, such as putting together a team of employees and members every year for the Walk For Wishes, and by selling stars for donations to members, which are then hung up on the walls of the fitness centers.
The star campaign has raised $275,000 since 2010. Of the $500,000 Mountainside Fitness has raised, Mr. Hatten says $325,000 has come from donations by members.
"We get a big lift from our members who just give and give and give," said Mr. Hatten. "To help a child get through chemo and their operations, and to brighten their outlook on life is truly amazing."
2016 was a record fundraising year for Mountainside Fitness, raising just under $40,000 for this year's Walk For Wishes. Walk For Wishes is a family-friendly event powered by wish kids, volunteers, donors and friends, to celebrate wishes granted and to raise funds for future wishes in Arizona.
"We need more regular donors – $10, $20, $30, it all makes a difference," said Mr. Hatten. "People can even donate airline miles. The average wish costs $8,500 and every dollar someone donates makes a difference in the life of a child."
Mr. Hatten has been largely involved in the community since opening his first fitness center in 1991 and has been a growing presence in Arizona, having opened his 14th Mountainside Fitness location in Queen Creek on Oct. 22.
Mr. Hatten loves to help kids and worked closely with the Child Crisis Center. He was also recently honored by Teen Lifeline for his charitable work in the community and MDA of Arizona.
"Mountainside Fitness will continue to be heavily involved with Make-a-Wish Arizona and other charitable organizations," said Mr. Hatten. "We have amazing participation from our members and employees, and I can only imagine how well we will do with our fundraising efforts next year."

text: "In a motion picture, television program or video game, the opening credits are shown at the very beginning and list the most important members of the production. They are now usually shown as text superimposed on a blank screen or static pictures, or sometimes on top of action in the show. There may or may not be accompanying music. When opening credits are built into a separate sequence of their own, the correct term is title sequence (such as the familiar James Bond and Pink Panther title sequences). Opening credits since the early 1980s, if present at all, identify the major actors and crew, while the closing credits list an extensive cast and production crew. Historically, however, opening credits have been the only source of crew credits and, largely, the cast, although over time the tendency to repeat the cast, and perhaps add a few players, with their roles identified (as was not always the case in the opening credits), evolved." says Wikipedia. But in my agenda it is kind of an art of story telling. And here is the top 5 tv opening credits of last 10 years and title art list of mine… #5 True Blood- Alan Ball Credits by Matt Mulder & Rama Allen #4 Nip Tuck – Ryan Murphy #3 Game of Thrones Credits by Angus Wall #2 Dexter Credits by Eric Anderson #1 Six Feet Under – Alan Ball Credits by Danny Yount & Eric Anderson And here is a new flesh "True Dedective" as a bonus. It's inspiring and by Patrick Clair Note: Of course I didn't forget The Sopranos and many others too… Enjoy your credits… Aytac Ozge Ondes

Thirty members of California's Congressional delegation are urging Gov. Jerry Brown to sign into law a bill that would require California schools, from K-12 to college-level, to more rigorously address sexual violence and harassment in schools.
Senate Bill 169 from state Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson, D-Santa Barbara, would codify into state law Obama-era regulations requiring schools that receive financial assistance, under Title IV anti-discrimination law, to develop stronger procedures for handling sexual harassment and violence complaints. Those include responding more promptly, defining sexual harassment through the education code and publishing grievance procedures.
The Trump administration, under Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, announced earlier this month that it plans to withdraw the federal guidance issued by former President Barack Obama in 2011 in response to sexual assault on college campuses.
Jackson said the federal guidance is a critical tool for schools to ensure campuses are safe.

She said the Trump administration's decision "puts women and girls at grave risk."
"Women are raped and sexually assaulted far more often than perpetrators are falsely accused," Jackson said in a statement. "Contrary to Secretary DeVos' claims, the Obama administration guidelines created, for the first time, a fair, equitable and clear process for students and schools to effectively respond to rape and sexual assault while protecting both the accused as well as the victim. In California, we will continue to fight to ensure that women and girls can be safe in their educational pursuits."
DeVos said the system has failed victims and those accused of sexual violence or harassment.
In the letter to Brown, Congressional Democrats, led by Rep. Jackie Speier of Hillsborough, said Jackson's bill is a "necessary response to reduce an endemic culture of gender discrimination and violence in our schools."

Your house is your castle. Still, there are probably days when you feel more like the gardener or the stable boy than the king or queen. After all, maintaining a house takes a lot of work. But, current upkeep issues, like mopping the floor or mowing the lawn, shouldn't be your only concern. You also need to prevent future issues from occurring, because if you don't – well, there's nothing worse than a castle surrounded by an unplanned and unwanted moat.
Plenty of potential home-related problems are self-evident. If, for example, you have a dead tree in your yard, leaning in the direction of your home, you know that you should have it removed. Otherwise, a thunderstorm may remove it for you and send it crashing your way. But there are plenty of nooks and crannies in and around your house that you probably would never think about unless something went wrong.
It doesn't have to be that way, though. You can head off these problems at the pass. What are some of the often-overlooked home improvement headaches in a typical house? Keep an eye out for:
Vent Hood
The hood over your stove tends to blend in with the background scenery of your kitchen so much so that you may hardly be aware that you have one. And because of that, you may not be aware that there's a filter in yours that requires maintenance.
"Kitchen vent hoods contain filters that are designed to trap grease, and over time the grease can build up and create a fire hazard in your kitchen," says Sabine Schoenberg, a Greenwich, Connecticut-based real estate agent and home designer who runs the blog SabinesNewHouse.com.
To reduce your risk of a kitchen fire, "it's important to check these filters periodically to ensure they are kept clean," she advises, adding that it isn't hard to do as many filters are dishwasher safe.
Fireplace Mortar
Here's another potential fire threat to stave off: cracks in the material that surrounds your fireplace.
"Mortar can crack and deteriorate over time, especially near fireplaces where there is extreme heat present," Schoenberg explains. "A few years ago there was a fire here in Greenwich, Connecticut that was caused by a hot ember falling through a crack in the fireplace surround and starting a fire."
It isn't difficult to seal these cracks, Schoenberg adds. But make sure the professional you hire uses a high-heat-resistant grout.
Smoke Detectors
You probably don't need to be told to replace the batteries in your smoke detectors. But do you ever replace your smoke detectors themselves?
Eric Holt is a home designer and a teaching assistant professor of home design at the Franklin L. Burns School of Real Estate & Construction Management at the University of Denver. He advises that every once in a while you should replace not only the battery, but the entire detector as well.
"The detectors age, sensors get clogged. They still may operate, but they may not be up to building codes or standards anymore. Many smoke alarms have carbon monoxide equipment built into them. It's just a good idea, every once in a while, to upgrade the equipment."
Considering how dangerous fire and carbon monoxide are, following Holt's advice could be life-saving.
Water Line's Main Shut-Off Valve
This doesn't seem like anything you would need to worry about if your water is running just fine, but in a way, that's the problem. If you don't have water issues, you probably wouldn't think about your main shut-off valve. But once a year, you'd be wise to call in a plumber to turn your water off, says Dean Bennett, a residential designer and contractor in Castle Rock, Colorado.
If you decide to handle this task yourself, proceed with caution. When you turn your water back on, do so slowly, as a sudden increase in water pressure can cause fittings and hoses to blow. And if you notice that the valve is old, leaking or calcified, hire a plumber to replace it right away.
Why is this important? One day, you may need to turn off the water line's main shut-off valve. And if you can't, you could have a crisis on your hands.
"We worked with a homeowner who was working on a leak [in] his kitchen sink," Bennett recalls. "He couldn't shut off the water, and so he decided to turn off the water main. But it hadn't been turned off in 10 or 15 years, and all of the calcification on the valve wouldn't allow him to turn off."
And the sink pipe kept leaking. The homeowner, Bennett says, wound up with a lot of water damage, including flooding in his basement.
As noted, you probably know you need to remove a diseased tree. But what about the healthy and hearty trees that are near your home. If they're close enough, their branches may act as highways to your roof for mice, chipmunks, squirrels and possibly even raccoons and other little and not-so-little critters. Those animals can do some serious damage, chewing shingles, shutters, insulation and eventually making their way into your home's attic or crawlspace.
Even if your trees don't touch your home, you may not be out of the woods. The Internet Center for Wildlife Damage Management recommends that homeowners keep limbs six to eight feet from the house so that squirrels can't jump onto your roof.
You're probably well aware that it's important to have your gutters cleaned, but are you having them cleaned often enough? Most home improvement experts say that you should have your gutters cleaned out twice a year, more depending on the type and number of trees in your yard.
If you don't have leaves and other debris removed from your gutters, they can clog after a heavy rain or in the winter, when the ice on your roof melts. This could cause water to seep into the roof, down the walls of your house, and into your foundation. And damage to your home's foundation could cost thousands of dollars to fix.
Although you can clean your gutters yourself, it's very dangerous, and you risk damaging your gutters and roof shingles. Therefore, it's strongly recommended that you a hire a professional to handle this job.
And while they're up there, they can inspect the rest of the roof for any damage from hail or animals, says Bryan Nugent, who has a handyman service, My Reliable Handyman, in Budd Lake, New Jersey.
Exterior Paint
A fresh coat of paint can rejuvenate the look of your house, and it can protect it too.
"If you wait too long to do exterior painting, especially the sills and trim, but also the siding, the siding and trim will start to rot and eventually have to be replaced," Bennett says. "Depending on where you live and what the weather and humidity [are] like, the time frame for painting could be as soon as five years or as long as 10 years."
However if a part of a wall or a window sill is already rotting, don't think you can just paint over it and hope for the best. Well, you can, but it probably won't work out well for you. "If the wood is wet from rot, and you paint over it, all you're doing is sealing up the wetness. It may last a year before the paint deteriorates, and moisture gets back in, and the wood continues to rot," Bennett warns.
Obviously, if you can't afford to paint your house, you can try to put off painting for several months. But don't put it off for very long or it could cost you a lot more down the line.
It can be disconcerting and discouraging to list all the areas of your home where things could go wrong. But at least it isn't hard to determine if you do have a potential problem, Nugent says.
"All you have to do is walk around and poke things with a pencil or something like that. A lot of people look at their house, but they don't inspect it. It doesn't take an expert to tell if your windowsills are about to fall off, or if you have a loose railing on the stairs. But you do have to be in a regular routine of inspecting your home," Nugent says.
Even inspecting your home just once or twice a year can help a lot. Because, yes, you aren't only the king or queen of your dwelling. You're also the royal gardener, the royal janitor and the royal lookout.

Dem's "Tax Cut" Bill Includes Gifts to Rum Producers and Hollywood
Wasn't this supposed to be a bill to extend tax cuts?
Harry Reid's "tax cut" bill is packed with $55 billion worth of sweeteners including gifts to rum producers and Hollywood.
FOX News reported:
The sweeping tax cut bill introduced Thursday night by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is chock-full of sweeteners which could serve as a legislative pacifier for Democrats outraged over the concessions President Obama has handed to Republicans.
The stimulus-sized package includes about $55 billion worth of short-term tax extensions for businesses and individuals. They cover a host of alternative energy credits, a potential salve for environmentally conscious lawmakers, as well as targeted benefits for everything from the film and television industry to mining companies to rum producers.
Reid has set up a test vote on the package for Monday, which could clear the way for a final vote as early as Wednesday. The bill stands a good chance of passage in the Senate, but the House is less predictable as rebellious Democrats accuse the president of caving and clamor for changes.

A tale of two cities – part one – Jericho
22 So the water has been healed to this day, according to the word that Elisha spoke.(2 Kings 2:22 ESV)
Two very well known Biblical cities are mentioned in 2 Kings 2- Jericho and Bethel. Both in their own way are very well known throughout scripture, but both were in Elisha's day spiritually dead and far from God. Tomorrow we'll look at Bethel, today I'd like to look briefly at Jericho.
The first act that Elisha was to do in succeeding Elijah as a prophet of the Lord was to strike the river Jordan with his mantle, and thereby showing that the spirit of God indeed did rest upon him (verse 15). Something that was affirmed even by the prophets who were at Jericho . It is a curious thing that there were prophets in both Jericho and as we will see tomorrow at Bethel, yet neither place was exactly on fire for God. In fact it might be said to be the opposite. The prophets at Jericho show a remarkable lack of prophetic vision in claiming that the Holy Spirit had taken up Elijah and dropped him down in a valley somewhere ( verses 16-18). Elisha knows better.
Then the narrative changes to show Elisha's first miracle. It is remarkable that when Elisha was asked by his great mentor what he would desire from him , he asked for a double portion of his spirit (verse 9 & 10) . As Elisha was able to see Elijah being taken from him (verse 12) Elijah's promise to Elisha is fulfilled . It does seem as if a double portion of Elijah's spirit did indeed rest upon Elijah and throughout his life, he lived in a very different way from Elijah. While Elijah's life was solitary , Elisha's life was spent much more among people, and what is more twice as many miracles were undertaken by Elisha as by Elijah. He was going to make his own mark , and what is more fulfil the plans that God had revealed to Elijah a while before (1 Kings 19: 16).
Finding himself at the river Jordan, Elisha is at the ancient city of Jericho, but it is plain from what the people have to say that things are not good there. ' Now the men of the city said to Elisha, "Behold, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord sees, but the water is bad, and the land is unfruitful." (2 Kings 2:19 ESV) Jericho is ' the city of Palms' and situated in a pleasant oasis on the Jordan river, It is 800 feet below sea level, and is richly blessed with almost perpetual sunshine, very good fertile ground from the alluvial deposits of the Jordan and a constantly flowing spring Ein es Sultan ( mentioned in verse 21) that irrigates the land. Yet in Elisha's time something is badly wrong in Jericho. The water is bad and soil unfruitful , and Elisha sees immediately what is wrong , Jericho has been cursed.
To find out the reason for this we have to go back further in scripture. In the book of Joshua 6 the city of Jericho had fallen to the victorious Israelites in the famous battle of Jericho. At that time Joshua actually pronounced a curse on Jericho in this way ' Joshua laid an oath on them at that time, saying, "Cursed before the Lord be the man who rises up and rebuilds this city, Jericho (Joshua 6:26 ESV). Centuries later and shortly before the beginning of the story of Elijah we read this in 1 Kings 16:34 ' In his days Hiel of Bethel built Jericho. He laid its foundation at the cost of Abiram his firstborn, and set up its gates at the cost of his youngest son Segub, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke by Joshua the son of Nun. (1 Kings 16:34 ESV)
The word of God spells out clearly the blessings for obedience, and the curses for disobedience. (See Deuteronomy 28 for example)
It is interesting that Elisha offers salt in order to purify the water and land. On one level it might seem as if this is simply using the well known purifying properties of salt in a symbolic way to bring about the healing of the land. What Elisha was doing was more than this though. He was actually renewing the covenant between God and this place and people by means of offering a convenient of Salt. In Numbers 18: 19 we read " All the holy contributions that the people of Israel present to the Lord I give to you, and to your sons and daughters with you, as a perpetual due. It is a covenant of salt forever before the Lord for you and for your offspring with you (Numbers 18:19 ESV) 5 Ought you not to know that the Lord God of Israel gave the kingship over Israel forever to David and his sons by a covenant of salt?
(2 Chronicles 13:5 ESV)
Elisha sets about reversing the curse by asking for a new and unused bowl, one undefiled by human use and taking salt and throwing the salt in the spring. Elisha's words show that it was God who healed the water, and who had reversed the Covenant curse on Jericho., not Elisha this was not magic "Thus says the Lord, I have healed this water; from now on neither death nor miscarriage shall come from it (2 Kings 2:21 ESV). But it is what was done by Elisha that was interesting , he demanded a clean, new and unused vessel to contain the salt, in other words a vessel that was not polluted, adulterated or compromised in any way that surely has something to say to the church of day and indeed to all those who would minister in God's name ? What a challenge and convicting thought this is. It was not the prophetic school long established at Jericho that was used to bring God's word and blessing but a newly ordained prophet , offering a clean and Holy vessel to the Lord . This whole episode shows us how the New Covenant or relationship with God was so necessary. It was not a case of patching up and repairing the Old. A sinless, spotless offering was all that God would accept, " but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot". (1 Peter 1:19 ESV)

After releasing the posters of Padmavati (Deepika Padukone) and Maharawal Ratan Singh from the film, the makers have now shared the first look posters of Ranveer Singh as Sultan Alauddin Khilji and he is looking menacing.
In the first poster, Ranveer is looking at himself in the mirror with a scar on his face and a crown on his head. In the second one, he is more terrifying as he is taking a bath but his eyes are creating all the threatening vibes.
Check out the posters here:
Reportedly, the look of Ranveer leaked on internet so the makers had to release the first look on Tuesday midnight itself. Padmavati is ruling the social media and is raising its buzz and intensity with each passing day. Now, everyone awaits the trailer of the film. We think, at least a teaser will be unveiled in Diwali.
Padmavati is directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and is releasing on 1st December, 2017.

Christian individuals, couples, and organizations are helping rebuild communities from Waco, Texas to Ebril, Iraq.
Chip and Joanna Gaines, stars of the HGTV show "Fixer Upper," have been helping families find, purchase, and remodel new homes. They've been renovating homes around Waco, Texas for years and have recently seen their stardom increase.
"We were joking, 'We're like zoo animals here,'" said Chip, "'We're inside this fence and I think we're the animals.'"
The Gaines have been renovating homes long before their hit TV show began airing, and according to Deseret News Faith, they actually planned on leaving the heavily Christian city of Waco to help people all around the U.S., but HGTV swept in and encouraged them to stay in Texas and help families on national television.
"It's just such an honor to be in this position, and the opportunities, the things that come with this that we would've never dreamt of in a million years, I think certainly overshadow the fact that there are some downsides to this, and those are somewhat obvious," Chip added.
The Gaines help homebuyers around Texas, 32% of which are likely first-time buyers, assisting struggling families with the move and renovations.
On the other side of the world, in Ebril, another group of Christians look to assist displaced Iraqi Christians who lost all their belongings to terrorists.
Iraq's largest Christian-populated city, Qaraqosh, was overrun by terrorists in 2014. Christian families living in the city had to leave their jobs, their homes, their possessions, and their lives to flee to a safer place.
According to Christian Today, many families fled to Erbil and are safe there, but they continued to struggle because they didn't have what was necessary to begin a fresh start in life.
"Erbil is unlike Qaraqosh," said Hakim, a displaced Christian. "I used to have good reputation in Qaraqosh and people trusted me there. I have to build the same trust here."
International Christian Concern is assisting these displaced Christian families throughout Iraq, helping them rebuild their businesses and their lives.
"Your organization did not know me," said Ahmed, another displaced Iraqi Christian, "but you decided to help me. It's really a blessing to come to know kind people."

From her beginnings as a South Auckland student at Aorere College, through the University of Auckland and onto the world stage, newly appointed Samoan Professor and Associate Director of the Centre for Brain Research (CBR), Donna Rose Addis candidly took us through the corners of her memories during her Inaugural Lecture at Fale Pasifika on Thursday 18 August.
An over-achiever, Donna Rose sailed through the University of Auckland and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in History & Psychology. At this point in her career, she was developing an interest in personal histories and autobiographies.
Donna Rose's first postgraduate research study in 2000 - a Master of Arts in Psychology - involved a collaboration with another CBR member and Director of the Dementia Prevention Research Clinic, Associate Professor Lynette Tippett.
This project aimed to discover whether the loss of autobiographical memories in Alzheimer's disease affect one's sense of self? Do our memories make us who we are? As Donna Rose and Lynette found, the loss of both our semantic memory (i.e., facts about ourselves such as my favourite dessert is cheesecake) and episodic memory (i.e., past experiences such as my graduation party) affected identity, but the loss of memories from the teenage years had the most devastating effect.
A Commonwealth Scholarship allowed her to undertake a PhD at the University of Toronto under the supervision of Professors Mary Pat McAndrews and Morris Moscovitch, learning the then new technique of functional MRI.
On the infamous Tuesday 11 September 2001, Donna Rose commenced her PhD in the role that the hippocampus plays in the retrieval of autobiographical memory. She embraced Canadian lifestyle and culture wholeheartedly, and formed a lifelong friend in her supervisor Mary Pat McAndrews, who came from Canada for the Inaugural Lecture.
In her research she wanted to understand whether the role of the hippocampus, which is preferentially activated during autobiographical memory, is involved in binding together the details of memories. She also explored the impact of hippocampal damage on brain activity when remembering past experiences.
She discovered that in fact damage to this brain structure does affect the memory network, as patients show less activity in the hippocampus and across the memory network.
In 2005 Donna Rose took a position as a post-doctoral fellow at Harvard University working with Professor Daniel Schacter. It was in this post that Donna Rose first explored her leadership skills as she mentored undergraduate students and research assistants.
In her time at Harvard, she also discovered that the hippocampus was not just crucial for memory but also imagination, as it showed activation both when remembering past events and imagining the future.
Donna Rose returned to her Alma Mater – The University of Auckland - in 2008, and founded The Memory Lab, her own research enterprise where she continues to coach, mentor and encourage emerging cognitive neuroscientists.
Using high resolution fMRI and other high-tech imaging platforms, The Memory Lab has researched the engagement of the hippocampus in future imagining. Most recently, she has found that in depression, changes in hippocampus function are related to impaired future thinking; importantly this might perpetuate the sense of hopelessness so characteristic of depression.
Among her many accolades, Donna Rose has been the recipient of an inaugural Rutherford Discovery Fellowship and the Prime Minister's MacDiarmid Emerging Scientist Prize in 2010, The University of Auckland Early Career Excellence Award in 2012, and the first Southern Hemisphere recipient of the Cognitive Neuroscience Society Young Investigator Award in 2015. Over the past decade, she has written 85 articles and chapters, and has received over $3 million in funding for her research programme.
Donna Rose's next research challenge is to focus on how to enhance memory and future thinking abilities. There are many possibilities, including a new method known as Specificity Induction developed by her Harvard colleagues. Their findings are yielding positive insights, and so she believes that "the future of Memory is looking bright".
Always popular and extremely well-liked, Donna Rose's Inaugural Lecture was attended by multitudes of friends, colleagues, students and her proud family, and ended with a musical tribute from the students of Aorere College.
"Success is liking yourself, liking what you do and liking how you do it."

Richard Gere Slams "Pretty Woman" [VIDEO]
This Richard Gere remark makes you think of the old cowboy saying, "better to dance with the one that brung ya". Seems he was interviewed recently by Australian Women's Day and said the film,"Pretty Woman", credited with enhancing his and Julia Roberts' careers, was "a silly romantic comedy" that was the "least favorite thing" he's ever done. He trashed his character saying it made greedy Wall Street types "seem dashing, which was so wrong".
I don't know about you, but I usually will watch this film or at least parts of it over and over. I don't know what it is about it other than the characters are just fun characters set in an pretty unbelievable situation. I mean I really don't know how many "ladies of the night" look like Julia Roberts, but I'd venture to guess "zero".
And for that matter, how many good-looking Richard Geres fall into the multimillionaire status? Yeah, it's silly...and romantic...and did have some hilarious parts. So, I'm watching it again. And Gere can go on dissing it yet at the same time collecting his royalty check. And probably take a nip at the hand that's feeding him. Here's a collection of funny bloopers from that classic movie.
