Unfortunately, I've had a negative experience with KNFB Reader, at least the Windows store app.
I bought it last summer when it was on sale, but I didn't get around to testing it until yesterday. I know, that was pretty dumb of me. In any case, each time I tried scanning a document, the entire app crashed. I tried a couple of different things, from instruction manuals I had lying around, to a piece of mail, and even a gift card which I had no clue what it was. Each time, it would scan successfully. Then the app would close, and I would be booted back to my desktop. I'm using an older model Epson Perfection scanner. I can't remember the exact number off the top of my head, but I could easily get it. I know it was from 2010 or maybe 2011.
If it doesn't support older desktop scanners, fine, but really, that should be listed in the help file if that's the case. Speaking of which, I suppose it could be, but even reading that was flaky. It crashed when I tried to advance to the next page a couple of times, so I never finished reading it.
#28 2018-02-08 18:20:54
It's probably not the scanner if it scanned the document and the scanner was able to return to its home position. It sounds like its crashing while trying to process the document, which is really odd, and counter intuitive. I still get nothing but jumble lya (hehehehe) with it, even though I have the level thing on and its not vibrating, I have the overhehad lighting on so its got plenty of light, but the light is far enough away there shouldn't be a glare, and the field report thing says all edges visible.
It is pure, free of judgement, and raises me to the utter height of glory.
#29 2018-05-30 19:51:15
I know this is an old topic, but this is the best place for this message.
I had an occasion to use KNFB Reader today, it has been a while since I last used it since I do most of my OCR work on my PC.
I have to say that I'm pretty disappointed with what they've done to it in recent updates. It is no longer as easy to use or as convenient as it used to be.
In response, I deleted it from my phone. I will be using Seeing AI for OCR work on my phone from now on.
So, in answer to the question this thread asks, I have to say no, if I were looking for a mobile OCR solution, it wouldn't be KNFB Reader.
Good job KNFB! You've certainly shown us that you know how to ruin a perfectly good app.
#30 2018-05-30 20:03:23
I never saw a reason to buy it not when free apps like Seeing AI do just fin with reading text.
#31 2018-05-30 21:05:03
At the time I bought it, Seeing AI didn't exist, and the other available OCR apps weren't very good. So it was the best option despite its price.
But with what they've done to it in recent updates, and with apps like Seeing AI available for free, and producing very respectable results, KNFB Reader is no longer worth the asking price.
Don't misunderstand me, I don't regret buying the app, I got three or more years of use out of it, and that is worth something to me.
#32 2018-05-31 02:41:44
Unfortunately, I didn't find the app useful at all, seeing as how I couldn't get it to function properly on my PC. I was lucky in that Kurzweil was purchased for me, so I do have a reliable OCR solution when I need to scan something and make sure that the results are private. Seeing AI is great for what it does though, it is truly a powerful app that deserves tons of respect. If I want to read something that shouldn't be in the cloud, I'll stick with Kurzweil.
#33 2018-05-31 13:55:06
Turtlepower17, Good point about privacy and keeping things out of the cloud, for me, for anything I don't want going to the cloud, I'll use Open Book or the convenient OCR in JAWS. One neat feature I like about the OCR in JAWS is that it will tell you the orientation of the sscanned page, right side up, sideways, upside down, and etc, nice when it's important to be able to orient the page properly for something like putting it in a folder with other pages.
#34 2018-05-31 15:51:47
My beef with it is how slow they are at updating the knfb app, at least on android. It gets updated a month or so after a major android release. Google puts developer betas out roughly 4 to 5 months before launch, thus making this pretty near inexcusable. Beta builds are there to insure your app is ready for the next release. End of story. So by waiting till later on in the cycle, it's inhibiting on folks who do their part and beta test the next Android release. As accessibility users we all should be on the cutting edge, if possible. It's on them to insure that the accessibility is kept in line, but it's on us to find what doesn't work and alert Google to such deficiencies, that's what feedback Hubs are for. So when an essential app with a high asking price like KNFB stops working on a paying customer who believes it necessary to test beta builds, that's a problem. When updating an app to work on newer revisions, it's not like compatibility's broken for earlier builds, in most cases. So by all means, release the damn update when it's actually ready, and don't draw it out. Obviously downgrading Android builds is out of the question. It's true that Android is one of the easiest systems to get back up and running after a reflash, but that doesn't mean it's enjoyable nor efficient. Downgrading your Android beta means a full data wipe. So you can imagine our frustration when an app of this kind that we rely on to scan printed pages and pdf's stops working, even on a beta build. So my point being, it would be unreasonable for me to say that the app should be updated the second the developer beta gets released because that's not practical. But at least release the thing in the middle of the cycle instead of a few months after release! But who am I kidding, Android users have always been second class users when it comes to what apps we get, it's just started getting better as more things hit android, but I wait around and ios users get a nice update to knfb 3.0, all be it an interface-changing one, and we don't even get so much as an update patch in a reasonable amount of time. If this were a free product I wouldn't be complaining, but it is an app that costs a lot more than the typical rentware fee. The only hint of my problem with the app before I actually posted part of this same rant to Twitter was a sarcastic response to the update tweet news:
Can't wait for it to come to Android P! *wink wink* quoting NFB: @KNFBReader 3.0 can recognize and read documents in over thirty different languages! Learn which languages are supported at http://www.knfbreader.com
So yes I probably ruffled a few feathers with that one, but it's a valid concern for an app that costs so much.

68. Regulatory takings
(see also taking)
1. In Lucas v. S. Carolina Coastal Council, 505 U.S. 1003, 112 S.Ct. 2886 (1992):
"the United States Supreme Court...held, under certain circumstances, an ad hoc factual inquiry was not required and a landowner could "categorically" receive payment as compensation for a taking in violation of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. Id. at .....,112 S.Ct. at 2893. The Supreme Court stated the general rule regarding "takings" violations: The "Fifth Amendment is violated when a land-use regulation 'does not substantially advance legitimate state interests or denies an owner economically viable use of his land." Id. at ....., 112 S.Ct. at 2894 (quoting Agins v. Tiburon, 447 U.S. 255, 260 (1980)). The Court went on to say that "when the owner of real property has been called upon to sacrifice all economically beneficial uses in the name of the common good, that is, to leave his property economically idle, he has suffered a taking." Id. at ....., 112 S.Ct. at 2895 (footnote omitted).
The Supreme Court then discussed the history of "regulatory
takings" jurisprudence. The Court noted that there is no "'set formula'" for
determining whether a regulatory action constitutes taking, and that in the
past, the Court has preferred to "'engag[e] in . . . essentially ad hoc, factual
inquiries.'" Id. at ....., 112 S.Ct. at 2893 (quoting Penn Cent. Transp.
Co. v. New York City, 438 U.S. 104, 124 (1978)). The Court, however, did point
out two situations where regulatory actions are "compensable without case-specific
inquiry into the public interest advanced in support of the restraint": (1)
"regulations that compel the property owner to suffer a physical 'invasion'
of his property no matter how minute the intrusion, and no matter how weighty
the public purpose behind it . . . . [; and (2)] where regulation[s] den[y]
all economically beneficial or productive use of land." Id. at .....,
112 S.Ct. at 2893. Kelly v. TRPA, 109
Nev. 638, 648, 855 P.2d 1027 (1993) (#79)
2. "In order to determine whether [a landowner] has been deprived of all economically viable use of his property, three essential factors must be considered in the weighing process: (1) economic impact of land-use regulations, which includes a valuation analysis; (2) interference of land-use regulations with // landowner's reasonable investment-backed expectations; and (3) character of government action. Keystone Bituminous Coal Assn. v. Benedictis, 480 U.S. 470, 495 (1987) (quoting Hodel v. Virginia Surface Mining and Recl. Assn., 452 U.S. 264, 294-95)). Id. at 649-650.
3. Regulations that temporarily limit development in environmentally sensitive areas do not effect a taking without just compensation. Id.
4. "In weighing these three factors, we conclude that the district court properly determined that TRPA can postpone building in critical areas for a 'reasonable period of time' as long as the 'benefit received by the property from the ordinances is direct and substantial and the burden imposed is proportional." Id. at 651.
5. In determining whether a property owner has been deprived of all economic use, the property "must be viewed as a whole, not as thirty-nine individual lots." Id. at 650.
6. "(D)enial of a building permit to build living quarters for the elderly did not destroy all viable economic value // of the prospective development property. ... Hence, there was no Fifth Amendment takings violation." Boulder City v. Cinnamon Hills Assocs., 110 Nev. 238, 245-246, 871 P.2d 320 (1994) (#80)

Top 10 Tips for Blog Success
Blogging is an increasingly popular online activity, with everyone from businesses to celebrities, governments to interested individuals having a go. With so many blogs around – and more being created every day – how can you ensure that yours stands out from the crowd? We take you through our top 10 tips for blog success.
1) Know what your blog is for
This sounds pretty obvious, but if you don't know exactly what your blog is for and what you want to do with it, you're not going to get very far. Spend some time thinking about why you want a blog. Are you looking for new, creative ways to promote your business or a service? Are you embarking on an important personal journey and want to share your thoughts? Do you have opinions that you want to explore through your blog? Coming up with a clear idea of your intentions will help to focus your blog and enable you to target readers more successfully.
2) Be careful with your advertising
If you have any sort of success with your blog, then you might want to consider featuring advertising as a way of making a bit of money. If you decide to do this, then you need to investigate the different ad networks available carefully. You should also start off with low prices to entice people in, as no one is going to pay lots of money to advertise on a blog that's just starting out. Also consider the amount of advertising you feature on the blog, as many advertisers won't place their ads with you if your site is already overcrowded with others.
3) Think about your SEO
Search engine optimisation is a good way to boost the numbers of people reading your blog. This means working out keywords that are relevant to your blog and then constructing posts to include them. For example, if you were trying to promote your new coffee shop, then a key phrase could be 'independent coffee retailer'. You'd then construct a blog post to include this phrase, which would improve your rankings in search results when people searched for that key term. Also make sure to construct your titles to include a keyword that relates to the specific blog post as this will also help boost your search engine rankings.
4) Be creative
It's easy enough to set up a blog, but it's much harder to keep it fresh and interesting for a long period of time. For this reason, you need to think creatively to keep people coming back for more. You could consider having guest bloggers who write blog posts for you or perhaps include posts where you discuss particular opinions. Video blog entries are another way of keeping things interesting if you're looking for new ways of utilising your site.
5) Engage with your readers
Keeping your readers engaged is important if you're going to have any success with your blog. As well as well-constructed posts that pique their interest, you should make sure to acknowledge your readers when they leave comments on your posts. This lets them know that you appreciate the support and lets others know that you're approachable, friendly, and that your blog is a welcoming environment. When you've built up a bit of a readership, you could perhaps start discussion posts seeking input from your readers so they're at the very heart of your blog.
6) Moderate it properly
It's important to make your readers feel welcome on your blog, and part of this is making sure you moderate it properly. This means dealing with any trolling or nasty comments (negative comments that are constructive are fine; it's when things get vicious that you need to act) as well as deleting any spam that may occur. No one wants to read a blog that's covered in spam, so keep things neat to prove you're on top of it.
7) Update regularly
You should update your blog on a regular basis to keep it active. This will not only help your SEO but will encourage people to check it regularly. You don't necessarily have to update it every day – after all, you might not have anything to say some days – but a couple of posts every week will keep you in the game and help to steadily improve your blog success.
8 ) Be consistent but not too narrow
The topic or theme of your blog needs to be broad enough that you'll be able to write lots about it and keep the variety going so it doesn't lose interest, but you also need to be sure that you're consistent when writing posts. For example, if you're writing a blog post about a recent news item, don't suddenly jump to a completely different topic halfway through, unless it's relevant to a point you're making. This will help to keep your blog focused and let people get a proper idea of what you're trying to say.
9) Think about your design
Most people start out with a free blog that comes with a pre-set design and layout. This is great when you first get a blog, but as your readership and reputation grows, you might want to consider an alternate design that will really help your site stand out among a crowded field. The investment in a custom design can really pay off as it will make your blog look unique and will help you begin to develop a brand for your work as people will associate you with the design of your blog. Think about your style, what you're trying to say and how you can translate that into an innovative blog design.
10) Enjoy it!
There's no point blogging if you don't like doing it as it will be obvious from what you write that it's a chore. You need to be passionate about whatever it is you're writing about and be enthusiastic about writing so that passion will really come across in your blog posts. You're much more likely to find a readership if your posts are engaging and knowledgeable, so if you're looking to find success with your blog, make sure it's about something you love.

Hi guys! So I know I missed the 3rd day Challenge, but I'm still pressing on! I'm going to do the 3rd and 4th day today. I'm still a work in progress. 🙂
So Day 3 is "the meaning of my business name". When I first decided to start my business, I had a really hard time figuring out a name. I solicited the opinions of some really close friends and got some great ideas but I wasn't quite satisfied on them so I gave it a rest for awhile. One day I got a call from one of my best friends who started asking some random questions about business names a favorite colors. About a week or so later I was given a template of a business card with "Splendour by Sheena" on an elegant pink and gray business card. I was sold! For me, Splendour means being able to provide guests with a grandeur experience and to leave the host 110% satified with my job. I strive to ensure that my Client's vision is portrayed in the most elegant of ways.
Day 4 coming up shortly…
Thanks for stopping by!

We all have heard most guys inform us that size truly matters, nicely the fact is girls do like a man with a big manhood. If you endure from a modest one, never be concerned as aid is at hand. In this write-up we will explain how male enhancement tablets can be valuable to increase sex. We will reveal a no.1 rated pill that will give you additional inches.There are numerous certain supplements that influence sexual vitality, specifically vitamin E and zinc. Vitamin C, niacin, and the amino acid arginine also seem to assistance sexual function. Several glandular formulas are accessible, and some men and females may possibly knowledge improvement with them. The idea that if we consume the organs or organ extracts from other animals to provide some important assist to our personal corresponding organs is not a new notion and does make some sense, but there is not great study to substantiate the effectiveness of performing this.For this study, published in the International Journal of Obesity, Dr. Elias Eriksson and his colleagues at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden consulted a database of Swedish twins born amongst 1886 and 1958. Throughout 1998 by way of 2003, researchers collected information from about 17,500 females who had a twin. Slightly less than half of these females had a male twin, and the other folks had a female fraternal twin.I am not a vet, but would say that four months later, over the counter male enhancement (mattgibson.net) neutering wouldn't have brought on any heart complications. Complications right after a easy neuter typically take place swiftly. Swelling is typical, specially on an older, massive dog. My aunt had her 1.5 year old great dane neutered, and he was swollen for weeks so considerably so that she didn't think the vet had even neutered him.Hitting puberty earlier than standard can be a cause for a boy possessing also much testosterone. According to MedlinePlus, puberty is deemed early or precocious when a boy develops pubic, underarm and facial hair and experiences considerable development of the genitals and a deepening of the just before just before reaching his ninth birthday. Early-onset puberty could be connected with adrenal problems or other kinds of tumors in some circumstances, which explains the higher-than-standard levels of testosterone. In some circumstances, the result in for these early physical alterations is unknown.freindhips are built on intialy physical attraction and on the couples charismatic ora! Sex plays into it based upon the streingth of trust and respect for a single another all sex is an extension of our admiration and values that play into it. The closer the bond the a lot more probably sex is going to be a considerable sex is not a midigating pyramid the freindship will eventualy fade and disolve.If you run you are going to burn more calories per mile than you will walking. The formula for total calories burned per mile of running is .75 occasions your weight in pounds. At this price a 200-pound individual burns about 150 calories per mile. A lighter 175-pound particular person will burn 131 calories per mile, even though a 125-pound individual will burn just 94 calories per mile.Male Added pills come from all-organic ingredients. A single pill has 1500 mg of pomegranate mixed with other effective ingredients like L-arginine, maca and zinc. The content is comparable to taking 500 glasses of pomegranate drink each and every day. Since of the all-natural contents, you do not have to worry about adverse side effects. Many consumers use the solution as their natural alternative to male enhancement merchandise. No prescription is necessary.

Aggreko operate globally and use corporate video to showcase their extraordinary work
Above: Motion graphics and video combined.
See Production Details »
Aggreko Brief
Aggreko are the world leader in the supply of power and temperature controlled generators, supporting mining installations, or an entire city. They operate 24/7 in over 100 locations, meeting unique challenges on a daily basis.
Shoot You are proud to work closely with Aggreko, creating video to show the impact they have on communities and industry.
Apart from being great to work with, their case studies and corporate videos bring fascinating production opportunities.
Pre Production
In many countries, Aggreko support the national grid, as population grows, or nature interrupts supply. The Myanmar installation an example, where sufficient power to serve 70,000 families would be added in 6 weeks.
Compared to the many years permanent power facilities take to create, this is an incredible pace of operation. Time lapse video would be used to reflect the achievement.
This would meld with real world footage, animated video, motion graphics. A combined reflection of the energy the people and location offered.
The international scale of the logistical operation also needed to be emphasised and managed. Our client helpfully organising access and any permissions needed, alongside providing an accurate schedule.
Our crew spent three days filming, a good guide for this type of case study video. Production can take in interviews with key stakeholders, such as the local power company, or Aggreko personnel, or focus on the installation itself.
Time to capture B-Roll footage of the area and population can be equally important. From hand held crowd scenes, to drone shots reflecting engineering achievement, or local beauty.
Throughout this period and beyond, the time lapse footage can be building, every location shoot be reviewed. International video production means leaving with the job done, no way to just pop back.
Post Production
One of the most interesting aspects of Aggreko assignments is the 'numbers'. How much power does each location require, how long to install the generator array, how will the power serve the client.
Animated graphics are a fine and memorable way to reinforce these key points. As in this video, they can be standalone, or motion tracked onto real world platforms, such as moving vehicles.
International corporate video production is about communication. All the better when the subject matches a worldwide need, our final task simply to see this is presented in an accurate, captivating way.
End Result
Aggreko have embarked on a rolling program of standard and animated video, to demonstrate the role they play within a huge variety of market sectors.
Their videos are used online, repurposed for exhibitions, or conferences, there to help the world see the support offered. We understand the audience reaction and engagement reflect their value.

Neurology Residency Program
School of Medicine > Neurology > Residency
Residency Overview
Welcome to the Neurology residency program at the University of Kansas. Founded in 1959, our program prepares residents for distinguished careers in academia and in private practice.
Our department is ranked among the national leaders in clinical care and research. U.S. News and World Report ranked our clinical neurosciences 26th in the nation. Our Alzheimer's Disease Center is one of 29 national centers designated by the National Institute on Aging. Our Parkinson's disease center is a National Parkinson Foundation Center of Excellence, one of only 24 in the United States. Our department also participates in the NeuroNEXT program, a National Institutes of Health network for neuroscience clinical trials. Again, we are among an elite group of 25 centers in the country participating in that network.
When Dr. Richard Barohn became chair of our department in 2001, we had ten residents and ten faculty members. Today, we have 25 residents, and we're still growing. We have ACGME approval to expand our complement to 32 residents. With new clinical faculty joining our department, our faculty ranks have grown to 50 clinical faculty members on our main campus, and 18 clinical faculty in our associated training sites.
We provide strong clinical and research training for our residents during their four years of training. Eight months of elective time are available during Neurology training (PGY2,3 and 4) for residents to develop their own individual areas of interest. We encourage you to take a look around. Meet our current residents. See where our graduates are going at Where Are They Now? Look at the rotation block diagram for our current residents.Take a peek at our handbook.

A Florida sheriff sent in the works — a tank filled with SWAT members, dozens of deputies, a helicopter — and found this inside a church: a sleeping man with a bag of food he had been given.
The cause for alarm: reports of a suspect, possibly armed and making threatening comments, according to bradenton.com. Turned out the man was clutching a liquor bottle filled with wine.
Why the massive response?
"When they heard that, they saw what they thought could be a weapon and they became alarmed and law enforcement got involved," Manatee County sheriff's spokesman Dave Bristow said.

Does making abstract art seem intimidating or baffling to you? Want to take your work beyond representation but not sure how to begin? Then this workshop is for you! Participants will explore and experience the process of abstracting from the observed world, learning how to find and capture the inner spirit of what they are looking at. Students will be guided through a series of drawings in which they investigate notions of rhythm, mark, shape, texture, and speed. We will address the concept of scale and discuss strategies for developing an effective composition. Experimentation with a variety of materials such as charcoal, ink, collage, and paint will be encouraged as we work towards creating images that capture the essence of an object, sensation, or mood. This workshop will give you tools to discover and develop your personal artistic voice.

The companys President and CEO says he expects fiscal-year sales growth of 6-7%
The Estée Lauder Companies President and CEO Fabrizio Freda revealed plans to make targeted investments this fiscal year.
Talking about the companys Q2 2017 results, Freda said: We plan to make targeted investments throughout the balance of the fiscal year to support and grow our brands.
This strategy, combined with product innovation, increased consumer coverage and improving trends in certain brands and markets, rounds out the companys plan to achieve sales growth of 6-7% for the fiscal year.
The Estée Lauder Companies registered better-than-expected profits in Q2 2017, thanks in part to the acquisitions of Too Faced, Becca and By Kilian.
The acquisitions contributed roughly 90 basis points to sales growth, of which less than half was down to Too Faced.
Talking about the takeover of Becca and Too Faced the latter of which was rumoured to be the companys largest acquisition in its history at $1.4bn Freda added: Both brands complement our make-up portfolio, which is the fastest-growing category in prestige beauty, and strengthen our position in the specialty-multi retail channel globally. We have ample room to expand their consumer reach.
The company posted net sales of $3.21bn, up 3% compared with the prior year quarter. Meanwhile, net earnings were $428m and diluted net EPS were $1.15.
Fabrizio Freda, President and CEO, said: Our second quarter sales growth accelerated as planned, reflecting the benefits of our portfolio diversity by brand, channel, product category and country.
Freda explained that the companys small, mid-sized and luxury brand led growth, with Estée Lauder and MAC brands growing on a constant currency basis.
Double digit growth was achieved in The Estée Lauder Companies best-performing channels, which include travel retail, online and specialty-multi retail.
Looking to full-year 2017 results, the company expects 2017 fiscal year constant currency sales growth of 6-7%.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is an early developmental disorder identified by deficits in social communication and interaction, restrictive and/or repetitive behaviors which causes significant impairment in social, occupational, or other areas of life that can not be explained by intellectual disability. ASD commonly presents deficits in three areas: social interaction, social communication, and imaginative thinking.
The current study involved a 4-year-old boy who was diagnosed with ASD. His parents described that he had a "delay of language." The patient also injured himself a lot and in ways that would cause him pain even though he did not react as if he was in pain. The patient was sick about four times per month with each sickness lasting 2-3 days and he was given antibiotics each time. On a daily basis, he suffered from rashes, sore throats, eczema, coughing, vomiting, a "runny nose", and dry skin. The patient had poor vision but did not like wearing glasses and always took them off his face. He exhibited repetitive behaviors such as constantly rolling a ball in his hands. Lastly, his parents stated that he still wore diapers because he was unable to be potty trained.
Upon examination, the doctor of chiropractic determined that the patient had a slight left head tilt and left rotated pelvis. In both face up and down positions, the patient's left leg was shorter than the right by a half an inch. He also had a diminished response to sound on the left side of his body compared to the right. When the patient inhaled, his lungs made crackle sounds. When he turned his head to the right, his eyes seemed to lag up and to the left. The doctor of chiropractic determined that the patient had spinal misalignments in his cranium and right sacrum.
The patient began chiropractic care over 8 weeks for a total of 15 visits. At each visit, except visits 2 and 8, the patient's spinal misalignments were adjusted using high velocity, low amplitude thrusts. At visits 3, 5, 7, 12, and 13, the doctor of chiropractic assessed and adjusted any cranial misalignments in order to address the patient's asymmetrical circumference of his cranium. After the patient's first adjustment, he made eye contact with the doctor of chiropractic for the first time. On his third visit, his parents reported that he understood direction better but had been acting more aggressively. At the patient's 6th visit, his parents reported that he asked to "eat" that morning and had started calling his Aunt "Auntie" when she was present.
During the patient's 7th visit, his father reported that he had asked for a "hug" for the first time. On the 11th visit, his mother reported that he had started calling her "momma." By the end of care, the patient's head tilt was hardly visible and his pelvic rotation was no longer visible. At the patient's final visit, the doctor of chiropractic asked the patient's mother to complete two Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklists (ATEC). One for the patient's status prior to care and one for the patient's status after care. The ATEC has four sections to assess speech/language/communication, sociability, sensory/cognitive awareness, and health/physical behavior. The higher the scores in each section, the higher the impairment. The patient improved in all sections of the ATEC:
1) Speech/language/communication score decreased from 23/28 to 15/28 for a 34.8% improvement.
2) Sociability score decreased from 28/40 to 14/40 for a 50% improvement.
3) Sensory/cognitive awareness decreased from 20/36 to 10/36 for a 50% improvement.
4) Health/physical behavior decreased from 35/75 to 24/75 for a 31.4% improvement.

Lavender fields forever
Today we went here. You pay £3, they give you a pair of scissors and
a bag and you pick as much lavender as you like. The smell was amazing
and it was lovely to get out of London for a few hours. I did get stung by
a bee on my finger though, really sore and now it's swollen like a balloon!

Use this versatile bread for way more than dipping and appetizers.
Use this versatile bread for way more than dipping and appetizers.
Ooey-gooey cheesy bread gets an extra dose of vegetables (and more creaminess) from steamed cauliflower. Use this mixture for your next grilled cheese sandwich.
Serve stew with a crusty baguette for a satisfying off-the-coast dinner.
We serve Mint and Pea Pesto on Toasted Baguette on the side with pasta, but Mint and Pea Pesto is also good mixed in with your favorite pasta.
Choripanes are signature sausage sandwiches native to Argentina. Sold by street vendors, at restaurants, and commonly prepared at home, they can be served as an appetizer or entree and are both incredibly simple and incredibly delicious. Choripanes consist of grilled chorizo sausage (often butterflied before being cooked, as we do here) served on bread, slathered with plenty of fresh chimichurri. The bread this simple sandwich is made with varies by region, but hot dog buns, other small rolls, and split baguettes are all commonly used. Use any leftovers of this bright, herbaceous chimichurri sauce to liven up any number of grilled proteins, veggies, or sandwiches.
Piled high with steak and veggies, the real treat on this sandwich is the sauce, a pesto mayonnaise. Use sirloin for a more tender bite than you get with cuts like flank steak.
These elegant toasts, featuring sweet poached cherries and tangy goat cheese, are the perfect pre-meal nibble for a summer dinner party. While the recipe sounds fancy, it's super easy to prepare. You're simply simmering fresh cherries in a poaching liquid made by mixing orange liqueur, water, and a few other ingredients.This enhances the stone fruit with sweet, zesty flavor and creates a stunning crimson-hued sauce, perfect for spooning over rich and tangy goat cheese. A toss with fresh herbs and a light sprinkle of black pepper brings mellow earthiness for full harmony in every bite.

As a practicing divorce attorney in Northern Kentucky for over 20 years, I have seen a number of people facing the decision of whether to divorce, file or seek other alternatives. If you are unsure, there is an increase likelihood of either a protracted divorce or a divorce in which one party bows out of the process and simply gives in. Couples facing the possibility of a divorce often face one of these three dilemmas:
- I want the divorce but I am not sure if it is the right decision. Since going through a divorce impacts the lives of your children as well as your lifestyle, economics, and marital investment, the pressure to make the "perfectly correct" decision is enormous. Unfortunately, there are no guarantees. The best case scenario is to make a decision that is not emotionally based or driven by your ego.
- I do not want the divorce but my spouse does. Being in this reactive place will leave you feeling out of control and helpless. You will experience intense emotional devastation as your life will be changing before your eyes without you having any say in the outcome. In addressing this dilemma, you need to ask yourself if you are clinging to familiar, safe ground and to a marriage based on illusions. It is not easy to acknowledge and confront the problems in a marriage, especially when you are feeling so hurt by your partner.
- I only want this divorce because my marriage is not working. If this is your dilemma, then you will want to avoid responsibility at all costs by blaming your partner for the demise of the marriage. There will be tremendous preoccupation and anger about how your partner caused you to make this decision. The amount of noise generated from this blaming will be in direct proportion to your unwillingness to risk expressing any of your own fears and sadness. If this doesn't occur, the divorce proceedings to follow will be riddled with tension and conflict as well as a continuation of the blaming.
The common element in all three dilemmas is fear. Victims of the first dilemma fear making a mistake. Victims of the second dilemma fear their own attachment to the familiar. The third group of victims fear accountability and softness. All three result in divorces that are combative and drag on and on, sometimes for years on end. If you are contemplating a divorce, speak to a divorce attorney about your rights, options and fears. If you wish to discuss and consult with an attorney for an honest assessment, contact my office to schedule. Call the Bouldin Law Firm at 859-581-6453 or email at [email protected].

Plinth blocks act as transition pieces between door casings and baseboards. They typically appear at the bottom corners of door casings, or the wood trim that surrounds an entryway.
Without plinth blocks to act as transition pieces, workers would be forced to butt door casings and baseboard trim against one another.
Casings and Baseboard Trim
Narrow panels of wood trim often line the borders of entryways. The wood trim, known as door casing, provides a finished look to the edges around a door frame and covers the jagged edges of the wall around the door.
Baseboard trim, on the other hand, lines the bottom of walls, hiding the gap between the walls and floor. The two types of wood trim meet at the bottom corners of an entryway.
Transition Problems
Both door casings and baseboard trim come in a variety of styles and thicknesses. Creating a smooth transition between two types and thicknesses of trim is difficult.
For example, if a home's entryways are wrapped with ornate wood trim but the baseboard trim is comparatively plain, workers might not be able to merge the disparate designs in an eye-pleasing way.
A plinth block is a rectangular piece of wood that solves the transition problem. Generally, its top edge sits higher than the baseboard trim, and its thickness exceeds the thicknesses of both the door casing and baseboard trim.
Allowing the plinth block to jut out slightly masks the relative differences in thickness between the casing and baseboard trim.
Choose a plinth block that creates a pleasing segue between the styles of trim around your doors and the lower part of your walls. Often, plain plinth blocks are the most effective, but you might prefer an ornate design.
If possible, lay your trim choices next to one another for comparison before installation to ensure you'll be pleased with the final results.

Come EXAMS and students become prone to the much-talked-about EXAM FEVER. Exams prove to be anxiety-provoking to most of the students.
Speak of exams coming round the corner to a child and it generally scares the living daylights out of him. Now is the time when parents need to put on their thinking caps and ponder on the ways to help your children battle this fear of examinations.
It is nothing unusual. Ask an actor, a public speaker, a bride, a soldier or even a new teacher and we get one thing in common, that they tend to get anxious and nervous just before the zero hour.
Preparations for exams are tough, exams are tougher but the waiting period is the toughest. Optimal anxiety motivates and keeps the students ahead, but over-anxiety disables them. Fear and anxiety hamper the organization of the mind which results in a mental block during the examination.
Don't you worry, as these tips will help you centre on the basic problem and rectify it. I am sure that you can do wonders in building up your child's confidence, once again.
Talk to your child. It is the first step to open up and make them feel light. Children need some time and support to talk over their anxieties and get it out of their chests, periodically.
Be patient. You can often be helpful without actively doing anything. You just need to have faith in your child. He is special. Patience and endurance always help.
Parental pressure worsens it. Parents need to adopt behaviors to cope with the situation rather than cause more stress. Do not over-burden your child to get a certain score or top the exams. You should be aware that studies should always be motivated and not forced.
Obtain a sense of perspective. Do realize that school takes up only 17 years of one's life, and there will be many years ahead in life for your children to achieve. Accept that not everyone excels at academics. While marks and exams are important, it is not the end of the world if they cannot score well at times.
Timetables help. They are guidelines and grids on which the work is to be done. They would avoid the wastage of unfilled time. On the other hand, flexibility is necessary. Plans or timetables aren't the absolutes to be followed. As inconsistency in following them leads to disheartening and lowering of the confidence level.
Teach your children to be relaxed, but not lethargic and go according to the capacity of your child.
Supervise and monitor their studies. Do not police. Do realize that repeated reminders about studying or constant interference should be avoided. Your child is not goingto like being constantly under a scanner.
Avoid bad parenting. Be kind to them. The extremes often lead to failure and further cause lack of interest and loss of self-esteem. Fear and criticism lead to more depression, anxiety and tension. Therefore, such an approach should be rooted out and efforts should be taken for your child's welfare.
Talk about aspects other than exams. Be aware that the rest of the life doesn't come to a standstill as the child is appearing for his exams.
Allow for breaks and insist on physical activities rather than letting them have a television or computer time off, as they play a major role in lowering the academic performance.
Adequate sleep and intake of proper nutrition is very essential as diets rich in fibers like fruits and green vegetables help reduce stress. Do not forget that "breakfast is the brain food". Seven to eight hours of sleep is necessary for appropriate physical rest and brain functioning.
Make sure that your child's study is a well-ventilated place and is away from television or other nuisance as such leisurely sources of entertainment can surely put your child off the scent.
Your children should be educated in such a way that they learn for themselves and not for others.
Fear comes only when there is some commitment. We can realize this by watching innocent kindergarten kids who might not have enough competitive spirit but they can learn and recollect well with interest and not fear and tension. Explain this to your child and this thought can offer better stability of mind with emotional support.
Many parents expect their child to do what could not be done by them. This mentality often stands as an obstacle in the development of the child's interest and abilities. This approach should be strictly avoided.
On the other hand, a few parents want their child to enter into the same profession that they belong to. This also hinders his interest and taste of subjects. This can hamper the choice of selection of the career your child is about to pursue.
Teach your child not to weasel out of the responsibility of exams due to the fear of a low score or failure. It has to be done, one way or the other.
Teach him to concentrate on every word he reads, in the class or when revising, as his lack of proper attention will possibly weigh against him on the final grade. Periodically, he will learn to be all ears with everything that he hears or reads.
Lastly, do not compare your child's performance with his friends or fellow students. This can prove to be greatly de-motivating, leading to the development of an inferiority complex.
Now that is about the size of it. Not to put too fine a point on it, I would like to conclude herein, as I am sure you wouldn't want me to yammer away about it anymore. A very important thing to be remembered is that -""Realize that you love your kids, even when they do not do well. Be aware that everyone has "off days". There will be times when your kids may react in ways which may seem to be inappropriate. Allow for these to happen without the feeling of guilt. Your child is uniquely special and has the capacity and caliber to outdo the rest in at least one particular field. Encourage and appreciate that. He will make you a proud parent. It is rightly said that, 'It is never too late to mend' (1590, Robert Greene)."
I am sure that with proper care and your love and support, your child can undoubtedly come out with flying colors. I hope the above charted out tips pay off into something worthwhile.

12 days Everest Base Camp Trek
The Everest Base Camp Trek is a classic hike to the foot of breathtaking Everest, the world's highest mountain. Besides taking you close to the world's highest mountain, it also gives you a great insight into the local Sherpa culture and the high Himalayas.
Starting from Lukla, this trek follows the classic route to the Base Camp of Mt Everest and Kala Patthar. Only a few people will ever get to ascend Mount Everest – climbing Everest takes more than 2 months, costs in excess of $50,000 and requires superhuman strength and courage. As for Everest Base Camp Trek, two weeks, $853 and half the strength brings you face to face to Sagarmatha, Mother of the Universe.
Your trek begins in Lukla, where you fly into from Kathmandu. From Lukla you'll follow the 'Himalayan Highway' along the Dudh Koshi Valley, through several dozen villages, for about 40 miles to the base of Mount Everest. After nine days of trekking, you'll reach Gorak Shep, the Base Camp of the historical 1953' Everest Expedition and the site where Peace Nepal Treks had successfully organised the 2009' Everest Cricket Match.
After you make it to the base camp you can also ascend Kala Patthar (5,600m), a big brown peak with its summit providing spectacular views of Everest, Lhotse and Nuptse. It is Kala Patthar and not the base camp that offers a panoramic view of Everest – due to the structure of this snow giant, it cannot be seen clearly from the base camp. You'll spend two days around Gorak Shep, base camp and Kala Patthar, where you'll get plenty of opportunities to take some photographs you can really be proud of. From Gorak Shep, you'll retrace your steps to Lukla via Pheriche, Tengboche and Namche Bazaar, walking downhill throughout most of the trail. The hair-raising flight back to Kathmandu will mark the end of your two week adventure.

Rest day in Namche Bazaar. O/N in Namche Bazaar (3,446m).
Two days of rest in Namche Bazaar helps us in acclimatisation and prepares us for our journey ahead. Namche, the trading capital of the Khumbu region was once the trading grounds of Tibetan Salt. Even today we can see Tibetans selling rugs, clothing, salt and dried meat in the region. Namche is believed to be one of the best places on earth to see the sun rise and set between the snow clad Himalayas.
- Day 5

Kevin Durant, who's expected to return to NBA action this week, has been out of the Warriors lineup since February 28. What was wrong with the former NBA MVP Durant? Knee problems. Specifically Durant suffered a sprained MCL (medial collateral ligament) and also a bruised tibia. Durant's MCL sprain, a common basketball injury, was considered Grade 2. The MCL stabilizes the knee for lateral movement.
Durant's MCL injury and recovery didn't require surgery. His tibia bruise had ample time to heal while Durant rested and then rehabbed the MCL. Meanwhile the Warriors don't need to hurry to plug Durant back into the lineup. They've won 11 straight, solidifying their claim on the top spot and home court advantage throughout the playoffs.

TEL AVIV — Foreign Minister Shimon Peres denied a newspaper report today that the CIA engaged in spy activity against Israel in 1982, and that this prompted Israel to recruit American Jonathan Jay Pollard as a spy.
Peres was referring to a Jerusalem Post account which quoted U.S. Sen. David Durenberger.
The paper quoted the Minnesota Republican as telling a group of American Jews that then-CIA Director William J. Casey "changed the rules of the game" by authorizing spying against Israel during Israel's invasion of Lebanon.
"I am not aware of the existence of a spy as reported today," Peres told an Israel Radio reporter in Tel Aviv.
Source Not Identified
The newspaper's correspondent in Washington, Wolf Blitzer, attributed his information to an unidentified source he said was present when Durenberger spoke at the home of Jewish activist Irwin Levy in Palm Beach, Fla., last Sunday.

Don't be Tardy reality star Kim Zolciak has admitted that she "hated" being on the Real Housewives of Atlanta before landing her own spin-offs.
Kim was part of the Atlanta cast for four-and-a-half seasons. At which time she stormed off during one particularly heated argument, vowing never to return.
The 36-year-old is now star of her own television show on Bravo, named after the song produced by former co-star Kandi Burruss. Kim and husband Kroy Biermann are recorded as they raise their four kids together and the two daughters from Kim's past relationships (whom Kroy has adopted and treated as his own).
"I was made to look like a wine drinking, raging lunatic!" exclaimed Kim of filming Real Housewives. "I hated it!"
"It got to a point where I felt like I was sacrificing myself for a paycheck," Kim admitted. "I never knew what I was getting into."
She added of her reasons for leaving, "I didn't like half of the women on the show… so that made things difficult!
Last weekend, Kim shared the above photo to Instagram with the caption, "I sat in ATL traffic tonight for 2 1/2 hrs to get to the Falcons game! I was mad as hell cussing everyone THEN the second I got inside the dome got to my seat and made eye contact with my hubby I started to cry! I just can't even begin to tell you guys how proud of him I am, how much joy I felt in my heart to see him back doing what he loves! We both looked up as soon as we made eye contact to thank the man above! With GOD all things are possible! Thank you God for ALL our incredible blessings! I have an attitude if gratitude everyday all day."
Previously, Kim admitted that she has returned to size four since giving birth to her twins. She even demonstrated her weight loss by posing in a bikini on Instagram. She then talked about her "mommy makeover", elaborating on her plastic surgery confessions from the show.

All forms of tea are probably the most consumed beverage in the world, next to water. Tea contains an abundance of a class of phytochemiclas called polyphenols considered to be powerful antioxidants. Polyphenols protect cells from what is referred to as "oxidative stress" caused primarily by an overproduction of free radicals that have the potential of cell and DNA damage, implicated in the most common "killer" diseases of civilization namely heart disease and cancer.
There is some research on the benefits of green tea in weight loss; however, the results are mixed. Whether green tea plays some role in weight reduction or not, nearly everyone would benefit from tea consumption whether it is black, white, red, or green varieties.
Check out a previous post on the topic of polyphenols HERE.

R.C. LaHayeLaHaye brings to Lander an impressive career both as a competitor and coach. LaHaye spent the past four seasons as the associate head coach at Newberry after serving as the first head coach for Grand Canyon's wrestling program for seven years.
"Today starts a new chapter for Lander Athletics with the hiring of R.C. LaHaye as our first head wrestling coach," said Reese. "Coach LaHaye brings a deep understanding of the sport and a passion for leading young men. This hire should give Bearcat fans great confidence that bright days are ahead for Lander wrestling."
"I would like the thank Brian Reese and President Consentino for the opportunity to start the wrestling program at Lander," LaHaye said. "I couldn't be more excited to hit the ground running and start recruiting the first crop of Bearcat wrestlers."
LaHaye played a key role in developing Newberry into a championship contender, helping lead the Wolves to three ECAC championships and an NCAA Super Region Championship in four seasons. Newberry went 41-14 in dual matches during LaHaye's tenure.
Prior to arriving at Newberry, LaHaye built the Grand Canyon wrestling program into a national powerhouse. In 2013, LaHaye had the nation's best wrestler in NCAA Division II Wrestler of the Year, Tyrell Fortune, who became the Antelopes fourth national champion in three seasons. GCU finished ninth in the team standings, its third straight top-10 finish. Mike Hamel earned NCAA II All-America status. LaHaye has coached 13 NCAA All-Americans. Along with the high marks on the mat, Kyle McCrite, who won a national title in 2012, was named the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Academic Wrestler of the Year.
In 2012, GCU had two national champions and finished third overall. Along with McCrite, Victor Carazo took the top spot at 174. Two other wrestlers, Bobby Ward and Celic Bell, earned All-America honors. The season also saw the team set a new school mark for dual meet victories with 19.
In its final four seasons in Division II, GCU compiled a 62-23 dual meet record. LaHaye also excelled as a recruiter at Grand Canyon, compiling a pair of top-five classes in 2011 and 2012.
The Antelopes finished seventh in the NCAA Division II championships in 2011, taking seven wrestlers to nationals that year, another program-best. The team also won the 2011 Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference regular-season championship. The team finished 17-4 in duals -- second most wins in the nation -- and won the final 14 head-to-head battles.
LaHaye had a decorated wrestling career at Western State College in Gunnison, Colo. At Western State, he was a 2004 NCAA Division II All-American. He was also a three-time NCAA Academic All-American, three-time NCAA National Qualifier, three-time All-Rocky Mountain Athletic selection, as well as a Colorado Collegiate Champion. He was a member of the 2004 Western State squad that finished fourth in the nation.
Born and raised in Payson, Ariz., LaHaye wrestled for Payson High School under Hall of Fame coaches Dennis Pirch and Dave Lamotte. He was a three-time state champion and set a state record for career wins. LaHaye was a two-time High School All-American and team captain for three state championship teams.
LaHaye received a Bachelor of Arts in Business Adminstration from Western State College in 2005 and a Masters of Science in Leadership from Grand Canyon University in 2010.
