The Peak Mountaineering Packaging Department
22nd Oct 2015
We recently added another Apple laptop to Peak Mountaineering's growing arsenal of Apple products. We bought this one from an Apple Store and you'll know, if you have ever done the same, about the little unboxing ritual they like to do. A smiling assistant (all the staff in Apple stores seem permanently happy!) brings a pristine white box of simple and yet elegant design which they place in front of you on one of their gleaming work tops. With a well practiced slice of some little tool the outer polythene sleeve is slit open slightly and the rest is down to you. You peel off the sleeve and are left with a beautifully crafted box that has a base and lid section that fit together like a glove. One slides smoothly off the other and you are left staring at the sleek aluminium case of your new dream machine. No matter how many Apple products you buy, this little packaging ritual always feels special - and that's the idea.
What I didn't realise, until I recently read 'Inside Apple' by Adam Lashinsky, is that in the huge Cupertino Apple headquarters there is a large department whose sole purpose is focussed on designing the coolest packaging they can. Staff test how smoothly the lid will slide off the base, consider every material, agonise over colour, assess the effectiveness of the logo position and work out every detail of how to make that 'big reveal' as special as possible. A large department and yet there's only a handful of products in the Apple line up. A large department because Apple know how important that unboxing is. Getting the packaging right is key to the consumers relationship with their new Apple baby.
I read business books like this to draw parallels with Peak Mountaineering and Lashinsky's was one of the books I read during my recent visit to Ladakh. We don't make electronic equipment and we aren't the second wealthiest company on the planet, but surely there are still things we can take from these big company examples that translate into our own practice. Maybe 'packaging' is one? Of course you won't receive your Peak Mountaineering course in a pristine white box and yet we certainly still offer a package which extends right from that initial enquiry through to the post course feedback request. I returned from India with a plan to analyse our own course package to see if we can improve our unboxing process.=
First, we sat around a big piece of paper and charted the customer journey. Once that was set we looked at what aspects of that journey we handle well and where our quality of package could be improved. We realised quite quickly that we aren't yet offering an Apple standard package and some changes were needed. It was a fascinating exercise, and here's a snapshot of our results.....
Finding us
Most customers come to us via our website. After that it's referrals from other clients, people picking up one of our flyers or links through social media and other advertising. We like our website and our clients feedback is that they do too. However, it's still a package that could be improved and we are working on it. The website is currently being upgraded to a new operating package which will integrate mobile friendly features as well as offering some other improvements like direct links to social media. It will be a big improvement.
We have always shied away from producing a brochure but we do have some great flyers and posters. They are widely distributed in local shops and information centres but are there ways we can spread them further afield?
Communicating with us
Most people (76%) make contact by email with the remainder either phoning or occasionally by people direct messaging us on social media. We have a target of replying to every enquiry within 12 hours (both midweek and at weekends) but, with the best will in the world, we don't have enough staff to ensure this always happens. In truth, we are a small family business and don't want to be tied to a desk every time there's a sunny day. But, we are in a competitive marketplace and response times are certainly something we need to address. We are exploring options. One is a call forwarding system for our office phone line and the second thing we need to explore is ways to always get emails bounced to us wherever we are.
Once we do make contact with clients we try to offer a personal approach. You'll never receive a computer generated response - each reply is hand typed and it's going to stay that way. If people have taken the time to get in touch by typing an email then they should receive the same in return. It may be time consuming but we think it's the right way to treat people.
The Booking Process
If people move from an enquiry to a booking we want that process to be as smooth as possible. We have never, and will never, offer online booking because, in our opinion, it takes that personal element out of the process. But, we are aware the system could be streamlined and an easy to complete online booking form will be part of our website upgrade. Taking money from clients may also be an area we can simplify. It's on the list.
Joining Instructions
We update these from time to time as new questions get asked or information changes. Still, we think the information clients receive works well, offers everything they need to know and is appreciated by customers.
Course Delivery
Of course, all the other parts of the package have led up to this. It's why clients contacted us in the first place. We want top quality delivery by professional and enthusiastic instructors. All our instructors (except Paul and Cal) work on a freelance basis so how do we ensure quality of provision. We are happy that our staff do a great job but, like Apple, can that packaging box be any better than it currently is? For next season we have some ideas in the pipeline including logoed staff clothing for our regular freelance team. It is very reassuring for clients to arrive at a course and have a smartly turned out instructor waiting to greet them. We are also looking at contracting a core team for set periods so we get consistency of delivery and can they offer some ongoing professional development training.
We always ask clients for feedback and it is always valued and always acted upon. One thing we don't do well is getting back in touch with clients who've left positive feedback (we immediately speak to any clients who's feedback has verged on negative) to thank them for giving up precious time to give us that feedback. That's something we will introduce with immediate effect.
Ongoing relationships
How, once a client has come to us, do we keep them in the Peak Mountaineering fold? We have a very high client return rate (87% last year) but that doesn't mean we should be complacent and it also doesn't mean we can't improve. We do send out occasional news letters but these need to be more regular. Similarly, should we be sending out offers, discount bulletins, Christmas cards or occasional gifts to clients? Maybe - and this is a discussion we need to have.
So, just as the Apple packaging department is always looking for ways to improve the client experience, the Peak Mountaineering packaging department needs to do the same. We may not offer a sleek white box but we should still be offering a sleek client package. If anyone has ideas for improvement we'd love to hear from you.

Philadelphia, like many other metropolitan areas around the world grow and develop so rapidly, that many existing infrastructures are often abandoned and forgotten. Theses urban ruins are often the result of the urban sprawl. Which allows the infrastructure to enter a phase of decadence and the claws of nature begin to latch onto its decaying bones.
Although, the clashing of man-made infrastructure and the hands of nature begins to create an urban landscape that distinguishes itself from the city fabric. This distinction between the inhabitable city landscape and the uninhabitable urban ruin is what often intrigues the interests of urban explores. These urban explores find a profound beauty within these spaces that allows them to escape from the everyday vernacular.
One can only really experience the beauty of these urban ruins in person but lucky Philly by Air and CUTSDATFLO are able to document their experience for your viewing pleasure.
Philly by Air's video 'Abandoned Philadelphia' does seem a little on the ominous side. Although, that ominous feeling and the want to understand what used to happen in those building is often what attracts people to these buildings.
CUTSDATFLO's video 'Long Gone, Still There' better captures the beauty and experience one might have within an abandoned structure around Philadelphia.


text: In now what would be its 20th year, the Mountain Man Biathlon always serves up a fun and challenging race. Over the past many years, Team Bulldog Racers have shown their multi-sport ability and mountain bike prowess to always finish with high rankings. This year would be no different. In the 24 and Under Males Category, Ryan Sarka took home the top honors, and top 10 OVERALL. Moving up in age to the 35-39 year old Males, versatile racer Keith Licata finished 3rd, which would put him in 5th OVERALL. Veteran racer Kris Weber dusted off his running shoes to bring home 5th Place honors in the 45-50 Men's Category. In the Women's Categories, Gerilynn Swede was the champion for the 19-29 age group. Not to be forgotten was Jessica Hoeverman who placed in the top five of the more veteran ladies. Great work to all in this most fun run-bike-run event. A great way to start winding down the race season or get fired up for cyclocross.

A man accused in the coldblooded execution of two undercover detectives on Staten Island was hit with federal racketeering murder charges yesterday that could lead to the death penalty.
The widow of Detective James Nemorin, 36, and the ex-wife of Detective Rodney Andrews, 32, looked on in the packed federal courtroom in Brooklyn as Ronnell Wilson, 21, and three co-defendants pleaded not guilty to charges in a newly unsealed indictment.
All four men, and a fifth not present at the arraignment, are alleged to have dealt in guns and crack cocaine during a four-year crime spree with a violent gang operating out of a housing project in Stapleton, according to court papers.
In announcing the federal case, U.S. Attorney Roslynn Mauskopf said the gang "culminated its reign of terror with the execution of two courageous police officers."
Reputed gang members Michael Whitten, 21, and Paris Bullock, 22, are charged in the double-murder, along with Wilson, but Wilson is the only defendant facing a possible death penalty.
"Wilson pulled the trigger and shot each man in the back of the head in cold blood after concluding that they were undercover cops," Mauskopf said.
Prosecutors claim Nemorin and Andrews had met with Wilson to buy a Tec-9 submachine gun on March 10, 2003. But the sting turned deadly when Wilson decided to rob the pair and then learned that they were cops.
The detectives were shot in a car and their bodies dumped on the street.
Wilson was previously arrested on state charges, but the feds took over the case after the state Court of Appeals ruled in June that New York's death penalty law is unconstitutional.
Reacting to the possibility that Wilson could be executed, defense lawyer Ephraim Savitt said, "This is death-penalty politics at its worst."
Three reputed gang members who were charged last year by Staten Island DA Daniel Donovan – but who are not named in the federal indictment – are cooperating, according to law-enforcement sources.

Spiritually the nail represents necessity and fate. Nails also signify Ultimate Sacrifice and pain and may suggest instruments of torture, either spiritual or physical. The penetrative power of the nail may be significant when we are having difficulty with issues of either masculinity or of sexuality. Dreaming of nails, as in woodworking, suggests our ability to bond things together. The holding power of the nail may also be significant. Fingernails and toenails usually suggest claws or the capability of holding on. In a man's dream nails may signify his own sense of self or his assertiveness, whereas in a woman's dream the same things are likely to be much more representative of the masculine around her.
To drive nails in a dream means that you will accomplish a task that you had believed was beyond your powers.
To correct nails – thrift
The Plotnichy nail symbolizes the fastening detail necessary for larger structure. Nails connect together various parts of the project. Whether all details necessary for the big project of your life, on the place?
Value depends on use. The Plotnichy nail fastens details of a difficult design.
To earn nails in a dream – to the forthcoming conflicts. Your private life will be saddened by scandals and quarrels. On the other hand, if you are not the initiator of the future troubles, most likely, you will manage to avoid them. If you are lonely, this dream means finding of the friendly relations or maybe more close connections.
Scattering – to health.
If in a dream you see nails is means that you are waited by quarrels and chagrin. If dreams the woman that she hammers nails is a sign of that she will win against the competitor. If, hammering a nail, it will hit herself on a finger, it is waited by serious troubles.
Nails dream to quarrels and chagrin.
To drive in – the right decision;
Varnishing nails - for the wedding, erotic relationship. varnished smooth surface - to a nice pastime. Hair - a joyful change.
If you had a dream that you varnish the floor, then in reality you feel the need for change, but are not able to anything drastically change. Maybe try to update the home? For a young woman sleeping in which she paints with varnish nails, it means that it is trying to hide something from others, and pretends not for that, which is actually.
If dreamed of any container with paint, you misunderstand the reality surrounding (this is connected with your work and, in general, the relationship between people).You need to be more sociable.If you have something to cover or sprayed varnish, which means that what you are doing is completely unacceptable to others, and you know it. We need to somehow mitigate his actions.
Resentment, depression, failure.
Good luck in matters.
Drive - the right solution; see - an opportunity; find - happiness; to pull out - the failure, the size of the nail - the scale of values (for example, or the possibility of happiness).
Hammered nails — to make the right decision.

Our comprehension of the web is constantly changing, especially in how we view credibility online. Here are my predictions for the future of web credibility:
- Overall people will become more web savvy, making it easier to see through pages with bad credibility.
- As it becomes easier more and more people will create sites on the web, most of them trending towards being not very credible. This may lead to oversaturation of bad sources while searching for information.
- Social media will change web credibility. Sites like Twitter and Facebook are filled with their many users posting false information, or sharing sources of different credibility levels. People may use these sites as tools for better or for worse.
- People will become less accommodating of faults in web design. With so many pages around, why bother staying on the one that's hard to navigate, even if its information is credible.
- Web designers will learn more of what audiences look for in web pages, perhaps even making not so credible information seem credible.
- Sites will become more willing to divulge personal information, not only to increase trust with audiences but also because of increasing social media integration.
- Finally, because of the aforementioned oversaturation, people may try to keep the amount of sites they use small; sticking to what they know is credible.

1. Interest rates are still below 5%
2. Motivated sellers, banks and lenders are anxious to get rid of all their excess inventory.
3. Unbelievable prices, most disstressed properties are selling for between 10% to 40% below market value.
Combine all these factors and it is easy too see why investors are buying thousands of homes in Arizona. For the most part these homes are way below the cost of replacement, which makes buying a home now an excellent investment.

Hello! Welcome back. With more than 20 resort hotels on the 45 square miles that is Disney World, there are so many different dining experiences to choose from! From incredible character meals, to more laid back casual meals, to signature fine dining, the sky's the limit! We have dined at so many places outside the parks, and it's truly a nice break from the hustle and bustle. Here we go…
Character Meals:
I can't really say there are any that we don't like, but we do have a few favorites we go to time and time again.
1. Chef Mickey's at The Contemporary Resort. There's no better way to get the undivided attention of the Fab Five! Whether Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy or Pluto is the apple of your eye, they will all circle the restaurant, coming right to your table to have a quick (silent hand gestured) chat and take some amazing photos with everyone at your table. It's just a hop, skip and a jump away from Magic Kingdom. Whether you choose the quick walk, or a speedy ride on the monorail, you can expect to get there in about 10 minutes, although there are times when it's actually faster to walk there. Trying to find these guys in the parks, and waiting in the long lines can be a real pain, so when we feel we must visit them, which is usually every time we visit, we head over to Chef Mickey's for a late dinner. We like to go then for several reasons – two of them being: we can escape Magic Kingdom before all the craziness ensues with all the resort guests trying to catch their buses after Wishes. And the other – when you dine around 9pm, the restaurant is not very crowded, which allows the characters to spend more time at your table interacting, the food has been replenished a short while earlier, and your server will not have as many tables, so they can give you more attention as well. So you're sure to be satisfied with the over all experience. The food here is done buffet style, which my family loves because there's so much variety that everyone is sure to find something they will enjoy. And, the nice thing about a buffet is that you can place your drink order and head over for food immediately. The food here is tasty. Carved meats, lots of sides, a kids station of course with all their regular faves including pizza and chicken nuggets, as well as Mickey Mac n Cheese – which you'll see lots of moms and dads eating as well. "this plate is for my kid, honest" or "I'm just finishing their plate because I don't want it to go to waste". Uh-huh, sure. The desserts are your typical offerings – an ice cream bar, cookies, a few cakes – all in bite size mini portions which are nice for the tiny humans in your party. And, the piece de resistance – and my fave dessert at Chef Mickey's – Mickey Domes! They are basically an Oreo bottom, topped with a dome of chocolate mousse, and covered in chocolate, with chocolate ears. Right up my alley – chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate! But, I'm a sucker for anything with chocolate Mickey ears.
2. Cape May Cafe at The Beach Club is where you will find Goofy, Minnie, Chip and Dale all decked out for the beach, ready to storm Stormalong Bay right after breakfast. We love to go here for an early breakfast and then hop the boat over to Hollywood Studios. Again, your typical buffet style meal. You'll find everything you'd want for breakfast – pastries, fruit, eggs, omelets, lots of meats, pancakes, and of course no Disney breakfast is complete with our a Mickey waffle, or three. The service here is great, and I love the feel of the Beach Club.
3. 1900 Park Fare at the Grand Floridian. For breakfast, you'll be dining along side Alice, The Mad Hatter, Pooh, and Tigger. Again, your typical breakfast buffet offerings. The food is hot and fresh, service is great. And Alice and her crazy dude in the green hat are two of my favorite characters. Whether you'r celebrating a Merry Unbirthday, or the real thing, these guys are sure to start your day with some fun, and a little mischief.
4. O'Hana at The Polynesian Resort. We really love this place! O'Hana means family, and that's just what you get here for breakfast, a great family style meal. Whether it's a nice hearty platter of eggs, meats, and pastries you desire, or those ever popular Mickey waffles, you're sure to satisfy that inner Disney piggy at O'Hana. And, they start you off with some amazing breads to boot! We love the conga line led by Mickey, Pluto, Lilo and Stitch! They also come to your table of course, and give you that individual attention – which is why you came there in the first place!
2. Non-Character Meals
At the Beach Club, you will find the ever-popular Beaches n Cream. It's a 50's style soda fountain restaurant. Serving up great burgers and sandwiches, as well as the best ice cream and milkshakes you'll find at the World. But be prepared – because they do not take reservations, the wait can be long, and the place is not very big. The major attraction is a dessert called the Kitchen Sink, 8 scoops of ice cream with every topping in the house. It's not for the faint of heart, and I wouldn't attempt it with less than 4 people at your table!
At the Caribbean Beach Resort, you can find some amazing island fare at their table service restaurant, Shutters. The menu offerings include things like habanero brown sugar glazed chicken wings, Chorizo black bean soup, and Trinidad roast chicken. There are also many American dishes as well for those not so adventurous eaters. Caribbean Beach is our favorite resort, and when we want to leave the parks a little early, but still have room for a big meal, this is where we go. Then we work off all those calories with pool playtime and a quick soak in the hot tubs before taking that beautiful lake side stroll back to our pirate room to drift away to dream land in our own pirate ship complete with a mattress. No Swabbing the deck required!
The Kona Cafe at the Polynesian Resort is a nice little eatery just next to O'Hana. If you're looking for a table service place for breakfast when the craziness of a character meal might not be a good fit – Kona Cafe is the place to be. Because of it's more quiet atmosphere, it's a great place for solo diners. Kona is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But I've only been for breakfast. Kona can be pretty booked up during certain times of the year, so I highly recommend advanced reservations. One of the tastiest, and most unusual dishes you can indulge in is the Tonga Toast. Tonga Toast is banana stuffed sourdough bread, rolled in cinnamon sugar and served with Strawberry Compote and your choice of ham, bacon, or sausage. While it could be deemed more dessert than breakfast, it's nice to start the day with a sugar high when you're headed for a long trek through the parks.
These are just a few of my favorites for non park dining options. We could be here all day if I chose to talk about all of them. For those of you who have yet to visit these restaurants, I highly recommend giving them a try!
Thanks for joining me, and as always…

Deploying Windows 10
Whether you're deploying your first OS or you are a seasoned veteran, Windows 10 offers you new ways and opportunities to deploy. As well as the traditional wipe and load, Windows 10 now reliably deploys an in-place upgrade mode. Microsoft are so confident of the reliability of in-place upgrade that they consider it to be the preferred deployment method. But that's not all. You can also use Deployment Packages. A deployment package (.PPKG file) can be used to deploy small things like certificates to re-provisioning a user's BYOD device to Windows 10 Enterprise, but more about them later.
Steps before deployment
It's always good to start at the beginning, and before we deploy any new OS it's good to know what's out there. The Microsoft Assessment and Planning toolkit (MAP) solution accelerator is an agentless tool that will help to identify challenges with hardware and software when migrating to Windows 10. Then the Application Compatibility Toolkit (ACT) will provide you with a workbench to manage the task of mitigating those challenges. ACT will also help you try out shims and to create a shim database (.SDB file) to use in your deployments to help persuade those troublesome apps to behave on the new OS.
Not convinced with in-place upgrade? Not to worry you can still do wipe and load. But what about that user state information? Well the user state migration tool (USMT) can help you to preserve all that local info that somehow gets left behind.
Provisioning Packages
A new process, introduced in Windows 10, is to use Provisioning Packages. A provisioning package can include management instructions and policies, domain certificates, installation of specific apps and Windows features, customization of network connections and policies, and more. These packages can be also used to transform a current windows 10 OEM to Enterprise without the need to wipe and load, thus saving time when provisioning new devices as well as in BYOD/CYOD scenarios. A new tool, the Imaging and Configuration Designer (ICD) tool is used to create these packages.
So now we're ready to deploy. The Microsoft Deployment Tool (MDT) provides a rich deployment platform that can be easily tailored to deploy images, apps and drivers. The tool can also be integrated with Windows Deployment Services and System Center Configuration Manager to provide a more granular network based deployment.
Monitoring Tools
Once deployed you can monitor the performance and reliability of the installations using the Windows Assessment Toolkit (WAT). This tool helps you determine the quality of a running operating system or a set of components with regard to performance, reliability, and functionality. You get a GUI tool to manage your assessments and provide the infrastructure for developing and extending assessments for long-term analysis. If more detailed performance analysis is required then you can use The Windows Performance Toolkit (WPT) which consists of two independent tools: Windows Performance Recorder (WPR) and Windows Performance Analyzer (WPA). These two monitoring tools produce in-depth performance profiles of Windows operating systems and applications to help you understand not only the effect of applications running on your systems but also the impact of Startup Applications on the boot process.
Where do I get all these tools?
Great, I hear you say, where can I get all of these essential tools to help me with my deployments? Well Microsoft have packaged them all together for you. It's called the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK) and you can find more information on this page: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/hardware/dn913721.aspx. Scroll to the bottom half of the page and you find links to more information and the download page.

Nature Reflections 2015 – Mother Earth Vision for 2016
Nature Reflections 2015 – Mother Earth Vision for 2016
Here I am … Aware of the beauty around me but knowing the layers beyond are crumbling. I see less birds and hear fewer songs. The amazing armadillo pair that taught me behaviors not written in any book are gone. The variety of oranges that provided fresh juice 10 months of the year are dead. The migration of the cedar waxwings no longer match the ripening of the mulberry tree. My treasured walk on north Clearwater Beach to Caladesi is quiet … less life.
I am torn with remaining positive but yearning to know the truth. My speaking out pales to the rising murder rate of indigenous environmental activists. My gardening, selling fair trade products, living lightly feels fluffy compared to the women marching on Paris this week at the COP 21 Climate Change Conference. Who stand up for Mother Nature around the world facing violent repercussions, arrest and sacrifice. I do not feel threatened for now I feel safe. As I write about these brave women, do I make a difference sharing their stories or is it an armchair attempt of being on the front lines.
Seven years ago I sent out an affirmation for the unimaginable … knowing full well it could be beautiful or tragic. It arrived and my life changed. That change sent me on a path to another ecosystem, another life, another country, another love. I feel as if I have rested, revitalized, and gained clarity. I am blessed to be able to hand over a 20 year project to hands who will grow the vision. Now in 2016, I will re-commit to making a difference in a world of tears and pain. I will breathe as I become fearless; clear to see what is authentic; open to be tender. I will still bring you the warrior stories of warrior women. But more than that, I will strive to become a warrior myself.

Yesterday it was reported that West Hollywood Halloween festival-revelers danced to electronic music and cheered as a man engulfed in flames burned to death. Another recorded the event and posted the horrific scene to a video website. Some did try to help, albeit to no avail. One must ponder whether the digital revolution is engendering a generation of hollowed-out people lacking empathy; whether in the age of reality shows and desperation for You-tube fame, we are disconnecting from our common humanity.
(To the tune of, "Day in – Day out," by Rube Bloom and Johnny Mercer)
Tuned-in, Tuned-out.
These days most kids don't see what life's about.
Young faces bolted to a screen, Life fast going by unseen.
While squandering precious time
Tuned-in and Tuned-out.
Tuned-out, Tuned-in.
They wake up texting as the day begins
And when they talk, they're conversing with but Google
Are they any smarter than their phones?
Perfectly happy somewhere in a cloud like drones
Come rain, Come shine
They've got an i-phone with them and their fine
And should another need help, they'll pause for a shot
For You-Tube fame, to give aid not
There's a disconnect here, we should worry about
With people all,
Tuned-in and Tuned-out

Well it's been a long time since I've updated this site. Alot has happened over the past 2 months including me taking a new job back in the Detroit area and moving. Haven't had alot of time for taking pictures with all the craziness but now that I'm settled in, keep an eye out for lots of updates. I had made plans a few nights ago to go see the Novi Wildcats lacrosse team play and I was actually able to do it tonight. It was a good game, nothing like seeing the tie-breaker scored with 9 seconds left in OT. Good job Wildcats!

Weight loss supplements are 30 billion money annually industry that creates large income for companies by guaranteeing big results to clients. Nevertheless these pledges don't always match together with the outcomes of the items. Initially, the Yours. Meals and Medication Management manages supplements in general as "meals" and because of this health supplements aren't kept to a quite high common. It's counterintuitive as most supplements promise medication-like final results but this oversight loophole will allow health supplement companies to assure customers the planet after which deliver practically nothing. Significantly, simply because supplements are controlled as "food items" by the FDA, supplements aren't analyzed prior to the struck the market. This can be a huge problem mainly because it will allow dietary supplement suppliers to make unsubstantiated statements on their tags and then in their commercials.
Since they aren't analyzed, several health dietonus cena supplement manufacturers pull off including impure substances with their items that is effective in reducing any optimistic impact in the dietary supplement as well as introduce some negative effects. The possible lack of oversight in the nutritional supplement market signifies that we don't be aware of complete negative effects of these impurities. Obviously, this kind of impurities along with the misapplication of intentional elements may cause a variety of health issues. Food and drug administration research exposed a number of diet supplements that had been laced with prescription medications such as stimulant laxatives, contra –seizure treatment and diuretics. This kind of tainted products might cause issues for those who already are using this kind of prescription medicines since it would dual or triple their present doses.
This can lead to unpredicted health difficulties and many tainted diet supplements are already connected to convulsions, sudden droplets in blood pressure level along with other health concerns.Even when nutritional supplements have been safely licensed, something is clear: Diet supplements usually do not generate long term effects even if they work as planned. Depending on their elements, some nutritional supplements produce simple-expression effects. Nonetheless, these outcomes are fleeting because nutritional supplements don't begin the good changes in lifestyle necessary to make weight-loss long term. Weight loss supplements have reached best a fast fix as to what is definitely a long term bodyweight difficulty. Instead of seeking out the quick resolve, style your own personal workout routine and begin preparation healthy, reduced-calories dishes.
Both of these points can be accomplished for free; you don't require a health and fitness center account to work out so you don't require a dietitian to inform you which food products are unhealthy for you together with that happen to be not. Without a doubt, you will find a number of compound body weight workouts you could carry out in your home without any specialized equipment. From force-ups to sit-ups, start losing weight without having spending money on tablets. In a nutshell, cash invested in weight loss supplements could be much better invested in a gym membership or much healthier food items. At most severe, weight loss supplements could cause health problems and also at greatest they're a simple resolve to some long-term difficulty.

Asia sets examples for effective political education
The Rights Card Game, a gamified educational tool developed by the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom (FNF) in Thailand, has caught on with students across the country in schools and universities.
Gamification, or the application of game-design elements and game principles in non-game contexts, is being employed by FNF Thailand to encourage more people to become interested in democracy and human rights. FNF has earlier rolled out SIM Democracy, a board game that simulates government policy-making, which is now being used in several countries in the Southeast & East Asia region including Malaysia, Myanmar, and South Korea, and as far as Africa in Zimbawe.
Developing education games is consistent with FNF's goal "to be the creative innovation platform for the promotion of freedom."
At the joint meeting between FNF Southeast & East Asia and South Asia region in Colombo, Sri Lanka on April 16-19, 2018, the Rights Card Game was presented as an example of a successful ingenious project.
"We want to develop new ideas and new ways to communicate within the Foundation and with people around the world," said FNF Chief Executive Officer Steffen Saebisch.
FNF Head of International Program Ulrich Niemann talked about the impact that shrinking spaces for political participation have on the Foundation's work, but remained optimistic.
In Sri Lanka, the election of the "government for good governance" in 2015 signaled hope. FNF now closely works with the Office of the Secretary-General of the Parliament in setting up its parliamentary research and training center, the first of its kind in the country.
"This is an Important step to ensure the highest quality of parliamentary work," said Dr. Wolf-Dieter Zumpfort, member of the FNF Board of Directors. "Good decisions can be only be based on a solid foundation of knowledge and research. FNF is honored to be part of this initiative," he added.
FNF Sri Lanka has also actively created platforms for the discussion of constitutional reform in the country. It has supported an innovative artistic tool for civic education, namely the architectural modeling of the constitution, reflecting its evolution from 1972. "Our task was to make constitutional reform more people centric, public spirited, and humane," shared FNF Sri Lanka Country Representative Sagarica Delgoda.

DRIPPING SPRINGS, TEXAS is well-known as the "Gateway to the Hill Country." First settled in 1854 and located about 20 minutes west of Austin along U.S. Hwy 290, the main attractions to life in Dripping Springs continue to be what drew the original founders: simple charm and a family lifestyle all set in the beauty of the central Texas Hill Country.
Dripping Springs is home to spectacular natural wonders, historic treasures, unique shopping, eclectic live music venues, exciting rodeos, a plethora of wineries, craft breweries and local distilleries and legendary hospitality. Also, recognized as the official, "Wedding Capital of Texas®," Dripping Springs is a premiere destination location, as well as being a great base for exploring the rest of the Texas Hill Country.
"Taking a step back in time," is a common phrase you will hear as you stroll down Mercer Street or Old Fitzhugh Road in downtown Dripping Springs, enjoying the architecture of buildings, many of which were built between 1870 and 1940, but are the current location for several thriving businesses. Whether it's shopping at one of the quaint boutiques, dancing at an old-style dancehall, grabbing a beer at the well-known "Barber Shop," or treating your taste buds to ice cream and frozen yogurt, there is something for everyone in downtown Dripping Springs.
Dripping Springs features numerous parks and other recreational opportunities. The famous Hamilton Pool Preserve is a historic swimming hole which was designated a preserve by the Travis County Commissioner's Court in 1990. Located 3/4 mile upstream from its confluence with the Pedernales River, Hamilton Creek spills out over limestone outcroppings to create a 50 foot waterfall as it plunges into the head of a steep box canyon. The pool's water level stays pretty constant even during periods of drought, making it a favorite swimming hole for locals and visitors alike.
For more information, visit Destination Dripping Springs or the Dripping Springs Visitors Bureau and Chamber of Commerce.

text: September 2, 2018 – A Great Spangled Fritillary butterfly probes with its' long unfurled proboscis into the flower of a native species of thistle in search of that life giving sustenance, nectar. Native thistle is a very important plant for pollinators and non-pollinators alike, along with providing nectar for insects and hummingbirds. The plant also produces the thistle seed that is so important to finches, buntings and other songbirds. Little flecks of light colored pollen cover the legs, face and hairs around the head of the butterfly as it moves from flower to flower picking up and depositing the pollen, a trade off worked out over eons through a remarkable co-evolution.

Tony Galati is an information technology professional, entrepreneur, teacher, and business leader who is revolutionizing vocational education in the US through the creation of MyComputerCareer.edu, a remarkable career college that has rapidly become one of, if not the largest vocational college dedicated to computer networking and security in the country.
From opening its first campus in Raleigh in 2008 to construction of six additional campuses in four states and its current national expansion in the online learning space, Galati's vision of "changing lives generationally through careers in Information Technology" is being fulfilled by thousands of grateful students each year.
A career-changer himself, Mr. Galati was a graduate of the BYU Marriott School of Management. He began his career in the world of accounting but after a few years had had his fill of crunching numbers. Not only was his income not keeping up with the needs of his growing family, but his job satisfaction was declining rapidly. With the help of a friend tutoring him in a makeshift basement "classroom," Tony was able to transition into the Information Technology field as a help-desk technician in the early '90s.
In short order, Tony rose to team leadership and was asked to train others. Thus began his love affair with teaching. For more than a decade as an instructor for many of the most prominent training companies in America, Tony built a successful career teaching technology skills to, primarily, other IT professionals.
But there was still something missing. Inspired by a strong desire to help others improve their quality of life, Tony founded MyComputerCareer and changed his focus to serve non-technical career changers. Built on a conviction that he could teach necessary technical skills to anyone that had a desire to learn them, and with a commitment to the values of Integrity, Customer First, Love, and Excellence, the school has blossomed in the ensuing decade.
Under Galati's vision and leadership, MyComputerCareer has grown from one instructor and a small support staff on a single tiny training center, to a leading national institution with seven brick and mortar campuses and an expansive online learning program serving over 3500 students in the last fiscal year. It has become nationally accredited and eligible to accept Federal student financial aid through Title IV funding, the GI Bill, and other sources. The company has been named one of the "Fast-Fifty" fastest growing companies in the Raleigh Triangle region and a member of the 2018 Inc. 5000 fastest growing companies in America. Now staffed with over 400 dedicated education professionals, enrollment is expected to more than double in the current year.
The son of a US Army (rank), the US military has long been close to Tony's heart. This affinity led him to seek GI Bill eligibility as quickly as possible to bring the opportunities of an IT career to transitioning soldiers and veterans. MyComputerCareer sponsors the POW-MIA Freedom Car, is a sponsor of Military Makeover on Lifetime TV, and participates in other military related causes.

On Tuesday, May 7, 2013, the Asthma Coalition of Los Angeles County (SAJE, St. John's, Esperanza Community Housing Corp., and the Breath Mobile) hosted a press conference to highlight the connection between housing conditions and asthma t 1209 W. 39th Pl. This asthma awareness event at 1209 W. 39th Pl. also featured asthma health screenings, provided informations about asthma policy as well as other educational materials to tenants.
One of the tenants, Gabriel Martinez, spoke to the press about the slum-housing conditions he has been facing in the complex during the last two years. His wife, Maria Martinez, had told SAJE organizers before that whenever showers pour hard, their bedroom walls become damp. Their apartment also used to have a carpet in the living room that would be drenched with rainwater for weeks. Doctors from St. John's informed them that the carpet, along with the mold, caused their four-year-old daughter's asthma.
After they discovered that their old carpet was the culprit for the asthma, Gabriel and his family started demanding their rights as tenants. They got involved with SAJE and started to learn more about their rights and continue to strive for better living conditions.
When the media toured the family's apartment, what they saw was a recently painted ceiling. What they could not see was the mold laying underneath and the moisture in the air. Perfect conditions for the mold to grow right back.The media saw a plastered ceiling in the kitchen that gets "repaired" every three months, and they saw wood flooring in the living room that recently replaced the torn and moldy carpet. "Mickey Mouse repairs" like this are made often by landlords to pass SCEP (Systematic Code Enforcement Program) Inspections, but the root cause of the issues go unaddressed causing buildings to remain in unhealthy living conditions.

WASHINGTON — Four new Coast Guard fast response cutters and two new patrol boats are headed to Alaska, members of the state's congressional delegation announced Wednesday.
The new cutters will be stationed in Kodiak, Seward and Sitka, with additional patrol boats sent to Petersburg and Juneau. Kodiak is getting two new cutters. Two have already been home ported in Ketchikan.
Wednesday's Coast Guard announcement came after Alaska Sen. Dan Sullivan threatened to derail the nomination of Vice Adm. Karl Schultz to be commandant of the Coast Guard.
The new plan comes instead of an initiative announced in 2015: The Coast Guard planned to remove seven major cutters — Island Class, 110-foot ships — and replace them with six 154-foot fast response cutters, clustered in just two communities. Now the vessels will remain spread across six communities.
"We have an enormously big area to cover," Sullivan said. And clustering the vessels would also mean less infrastructure, and ultimately fewer employees.
"They had sent us a letter committing to this two days ago," Sullivan said. "It wasn't good enough. We sent it back." He said the earlier letter was "vague" and didn't provide the number or locations of new vessels. He offered a deadline of 9 a.m. Wednesday for a new response, or he would pull Schultz's nomination from the day's agenda — and he heard back at 8:45 a.m., he said.
"Today we got a finalized, no-kidding letter from the commandant of the Coast Guard (saying) that we're going to have not six, not seven, but eight hulls for Alaska," Sullivan said Wednesday. And he said, "particularly for Southeast Alaska, this is a big deal."
The new boats will show up in 2023, and "no assets will be decommissioned prior to the arrival of new assets," according to Sullivan's office. The senator credited "consistent pressure" from the delegation for Alaska acquisitions — an effort that he said prevented a potential draw-down of support in those towns.
"I still have a hold on" his nomination, Sullivan said, noting that he still had other issues to work through with Coast Guard before accepting the new nominee.
Rep. Don Young said that he has "long advocated for these updates," working with leadership in the House of Representatives to make sure that the state's Coast Guard needs were prioritized and funded. "I am particularly pleased to see these vessels will be distributed across Southeast Alaska," Young said.
The fiscal year 2018 budget included $340 million for the Coast Guard to commission new fast response cutters. The new vessels are longer and can stay at sea for greater lengths of time than the current 110-foot Island Class patrol boats, Young said.
The delegation also grabbed $51.5 million in the budget to fund new housing and infrastructure projects related to the cutters, Young said.
"Our study uncovered the need for facilities including piers, maintenance buildings and community housing to support these cutters and their crews prior to homeport arrival," Coast Guard Adm. Paul Zukunft said in a letter to Sullivan dated April 25.
"This plan requires significant infrastructure and local housing investments in the communities of Kodiak, Seward and Sitka," Zukunft wrote. He asked for support when the Coast Guard requests federal funding, "and for the support of city officials as we mutually prepare for the arrival of the patrol boats."
"This announcement gives many of our Southeast communities the long-term certainty they've been asking for and brings significant investments — in infrastructure and local housing — to our coastal communities," Sullivan said. "And frankly, we're not done pushing the Coast Guard during their recapitalization process. In fact, we're just beginning."
The community of Petersburg will still lose three personnel members by moving to a smaller vessel. Sullivan still counted it as a victory, saying the city's mayor was worried they were going to "lose everything." The new vessel will be 87 feet long, replacing a 110-foot cutter.
All three members of Alaska's congressional delegation signed on to a letter Nov. 17 that expressed concern about future limitations to the state's Coast Guard fleet.
"We are deeply concerned with the impact your decision may have on operational response time to national security threats, fisheries enforcement, and search and rescue missions," they wrote.
At the time, Alaska was set to get six cutters to replace seven "Island Class Patrol Boats." And, they wrote, "the tyranny of distance is the bane of any search and rescue case; a matter of hours can mean the difference between life and death."
"Where we place our assets in order for them to be responsive is crucial not only from a national security perspective, but for fisheries enforcement and search and rescue missions as well," Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski said in a statement Wednesday.
Murkowski is a member of the Homeland Security Appropriations Subcommittee, where she said she advocated for the funding to spread vessels among "as many communities as possible."
Correction: This story previously misstated the number of new cutters headed to Alaska. There will be four new cutters, not six. The new cutters will go to Kodiak, Seward and Sitka. Two new cutters — Bailey Barco and John McCormick — are already in place in Ketchikan.

Over The Rainbow
I've passed this wall in Santa Monica almost every day I've lived here. It's strange to think I let something so vibrant fade into the background, but it wasn't until I had my friend in town that I decided to take some snaps here. I love the look of pretty things popping up in unexpected places, and there's something kind of funky about street fashion snaps in front of tie-dyed bricks. It sort of echoes my personal style of pairing my romantic Free People Dress with my studded Valentino sandals – a little bit of the unexpected.
I guess that's something I've been discovering about my style lately that I had never really defined. I'm rarely ever all linen, all fringe, all black, or all floral but a mix of looks I love. I'd say I like beautiful things with personality.
A good metaphor for my style, and a great one for my friends.
Xo, Tara

Our Model
There are many different definitions of anti-Black oppression. At AFRE, we define anti-Black oppression as the systemic domination of peoples based on their race, gender, class and abilities for the purpose of centralising power to benefit dominant interests. And we believe that everyone is responsible for dismantling the systems that perpetuate this global phenomenon.
AFRE brings together accomplished individuals from diverse backgrounds to incubate new strategies for addressing, dismantling and transforming the power structures that perpetuate anti-Black oppression. The AFRE experience helps Fellows to deepen and sustain their work, and to build connections to drive powerful and transformational change.
Our Fellowship Programme
South Africa and the United States are connected by a shared history of power structures exploiting people based on their race, gender, class and ability. Over the last two centuries, Black liberation activists in these two countries have learned from and inspired each other to build movements that organise people to achieve full equality. AFRE builds upon this rich history of exchange by creating a space for leaders from both countries to find solutions to end anti-Black oppression.
Each year, we recruit 20 high-impact leaders from South Africa and the United States to participate in our 12-month programme which fosters knowledge-sharing, relationship-building and collaboration. Our Fellows participate in cross-cultural exchanges and engage in a deep dialogue process with other Fellows to support and strengthen their leadership, capacities and understandings. Throughout the year, they explore the origins of structural racism and the mechanisms through which it operates, participate in collaborative vision and strategy-building for societal transformation and engage with different perspectives and approaches for building a just and equitable world. They also receive customised supports, including access to coaching, expert mentoring and media relations support. The fellowship is designed to fuel multi-sectoral and transnational thinking and action through rigorous learning experiences and additional resources to support the initial stages of Fellows' projects.
Our Fellows receive a stipend of USD $10,000 and are eligible to apply for project support of up to USD $10,000 during their fellowship year.
After graduating from the AFRE programme, Fellows will become members of a global network of Atlantic Senior Fellows convened by the Atlantic Institute based at Rhodes House, Oxford University.
