LinkedIn is one of the most powerful tools in your social media arsenal and yet it's often overlooked or pushed aside to make room for flashier, more "marketing-friendly" platforms. We leave our profiles to gather dust until the very last moment when we notice it's terribly out of date but important for an application or a pitch. Then there's a mad rush to fix up each of the many fields.
Trust me, we've all been there.
So let's take a minute right now and focus on one thing (instead of EVERYTHING) to get your profile in shape and actually generating leads: your headline.
Why is it important to optimize your Linkedin headline? Two reasons:
1. The keywords in your headline will help you show up in more search results; and
2. Your headline is featured just about every time your name is mentioned (like in search results, invitations to connect, and messages to other LinkedIn users).
Now let's get down to the technical stuff: How can you edit your profile headline?
Sign into Linkedin.
Hover your mouse over Profile and then click on Edit Profile when it drops down.
Click on the mini pencil next to your headline. Your headline is the first line below your name (see screenshot), and immediately above your location and industry.
Plug in your new headline, and click Save.
That's it!
So how do you write the perfect headline for your profile? It plays a big role in how you appear in search results, so you'll want to think carefully about the keywords used when someone searches for professionals like you on LinkedIn. If you work in the healthcare industry, make sure your headline has the word "Healthcare" in it. Be specific about what you do, both in your headline as well as in the sections about your experience and skills.
Don't go crazy thinking about keywords; just go with the language you use when you talk about your work in everyday life. If someone isn't familiar with your industry, they aren't going to use jargon in their search for you on LinkedIn, so your headline is not the place for it either. You do, however, want to be specific. Don't simply say "writer"; get detailed with "copywriter" or "scriptwriter." You make think that a more general description will help drive more people to your profile, but I guarantee you that people searching LinkedIn for a potential provider or contractor aren't using such general search terms.
LinkedIn can be a surprisingly great source of leads for your business. Once you improve you chances of appearing in search results with an optimized headline, you'll see that more people will start to view your profile and invite you to connect. They're opening the door of communications because they're interested in you and your business; all you have to do is walk in!

ESPN has scheduled the White Sox and Cubs again for their Sunday Night Game of the Week and with good reason. These two teams have a strong dislike for each other which makes this one of the best Interleague series in all of baseball.
This weekend's series should be a little more intense than usual after the Cubs just stuck it to the Sox last weekend in a 3-0 sweep at Wrigley. The Cubbies came from behind to win a close game on Friday night 4-3. The home team then proceeded to pretty much pound the Sox on Saturday and Sunday 11-7 and 7-1. With those three wins the Cubs have now won 9 of the last 10 meetings with the Sox dating back to July of 2006.
Slated to start for the White Sox on Sunday night is veteran Mark Buehrle. Buehrle has produced double digit win totals for the White Sox in seven straight seasons and he looks like he is well on his way for 10 or more wins in 2008. Overall Buehrle is 5-6 on the season with a 4.04 ERA and a WHIP of 1.31. However, in his last four starts he has been nearly unhittable. During that stint he has gone eight innings in each outing. He has a 3-0 record and a paltry 1.36 ERA over that four game span. He is 8th in the A.L. in total innings pitched this season with 104.2. In Buehrle's last five starts he has allowed an average of just 1.6 runs per game. In Comiskey Park he is 2-2 with an ERA of 3.46 and his opponents are hitting just .224. The Cubs have knocked Buehrle around pretty good, however, as he is just 3-4 with an ERA above 5.00.
The White Sox offense takes a hit in this series as 1B Paul Konerko is still on the 15-day disabled list with a strained oblique muscle. He missed last weekend's series and isn't expected back until next weekend at the earliest. Konerko had been one of the White Sox's top hitters against the Cubs with 14 career homers.
The Chicago Cubs will send recently recalled left-hander Sean Marshall to the mound to face the Sox on Sunday. In his first start since being recalled, Marshall pitched last Tuesday vs. Baltimore and promptly got shelled. He allowed eight base runners in just 4.2 innings. Marshall allowed four earned runs in that stint and the Cubs lost 7-5. That loss ended the Cubs 14-game home winning streak. He began the year at Iowa before he was recalled April 9 and posted a 4.15 ERA in 13 relief appearances. He had a save and no decisions before he was sent back to Iowa in early May. Marshall shouldn't get too comfortable in the clubhouse as this will most likely be his last start as Carlos Zambrano is scheduled to come off the D.L. and resume his spot in the rotation. Marshall has had some success vs. his cross town rival going 1-1 with a 2.92 lifetime ERA vs. the Sox.
Statistically these two teams basically mirror each other as they are both in the top ten in runs scored with the Cubs second at 430 runs while the Sox are eighth with 373 runs. The Cubbies have the advantage in batting average as they stand at .284 as a team which is the best in the Bigs. The White Sox are 11th in team average at .263. While the Cubs might have the advantage at the plate over the White Sox, it's the South-Siders who hold the ever so small advantage on the mound. The Sox are second in the Majors in team ERA at 3.46 while the Cubs are fourth with a 3.68 team ERA. Ironically these two clubs are tied at fifth in team batting average against at .245.
Home field advantage could be the difference here as the Sox are 24-11 at home this year while the Cubs are just 16-20 away.
Will the Sox get some much needed revenge after last week's sweep at the hands of their rivals or will the Cubs continue their recent domination of their south side counterparts? Either way, it will provide some very good drama on Sunday night.

Howling gales and relentless driving rain on a gloomy October evening in Southsea was somewhat ironic as the perfect backdrop for this trio of young, angry bands who took to the tiny stage at Albert Road's The Loft tonight. This small, dark and dingy upstairs venue has played host to a smattering of excellent punk and anarcho bands over the last few months including Omega Tribe and The Spitfires.
Unfortunately I only caught the tail end of opening act Violet Mud, a Solent-based quartet bringing scuzzy doom-metal ridden noise - and lots of hair! - to kick off the night. They went down well and had brought in people in droves to catch their sadly, short set.
Portsmouth's genre-crossing Battery Hens (self-described 'Pessimistic music for optimists!') were up next and gave a slick, confident, yet at times ferocious performance with their unique blend of dirgey post-punk, shoegaze and blistering noise. Battery Hens are very hard to label (always a good thing in my opinion) but they are infectiously watchable and have a way of holding you entranced. In places they are reminiscent of a punked-up Cardiacs without brass instruments! Certainly in tracks such as 'DNR' the vocalist surreptitiously drawls the words' Do not resuscitate' to a steadily increasing plethora of guitar and bass distortion. The four-piece have just finished recording their debut album but a great taster of what's to come is available on their fantastic 'Guts' EP.
Bad Breeding, then simply left me breathless. Lead singer Chris Dodd, reminiscent of a young Steve Ignorant was not content to tread the restricted constraints of the small humble stage. With a defiant, dead-eyed stare, he snaked through the crowd, spitting out lyrics, whilst difficult to make out in his angry rasp, but full of conviction. Whilst he was right in your face and breathtaking to watch, you could still not help but also draw your eyes – and ears – to the trio – bassist, guitarist and drummer remaining onstage whipping up a frenzy of sheer noise terror. This band are, for want of a more eloquent phrase, tight as fuck; Matt Toll's fingers are lightning across the guitar fret board and with clever use of a gold slider, he emits a habitual cool and confidence belying his years. To perfectly complement this, similarly Charlie Rose's sleazy, rolling, honey-smooth bass licks were dessert for the ears. Like he's being doing the job for 20 years, he slithered and slunk to and from the bass amp, teasing the feedback when needed. There is a brilliant chemistry here. Whilst at the back, drummer Ashlea Bennett pounded, throttled, smacked, crushed and stomped his drums like the apocalypse was already upon us.
Watching Bad Breeding for the first time unashamedly gave me goosebumps and a sense of gnawing excitement and passion, as if being back in '82 and seeing Discharge or Crass for the first time. Similarly, they gave me the same sense of excited foreboding when I first saw Gallows play a similar tiny, dark, narrow venue. These are not the stereotypical 'angry young men'; moreover they play and drive their message across like the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Hailing from the grey towers and soulless London-commuter-town of Stevenage, Bad Breeding are the bastard children of post-millenium Tory Britain. However, they wield a shield of resilience and defiance against the apathy, despair, ignorance and prejudice that threatens to erode creativity and humanity.
Oh yes, BB are a dragon's breath of fire and virality into the modern punk scene, whilst drawing influences and experiences which hark back to the 1970s. Go and see them now.

The good thing about soups is that they are very easy and cheap to make (unless you decide on lobster and caviar as the main ingredients!), very forgiving if you get the quantities slightly wrong, or if you need to swap ingredients, yet very tasty and impressive.
This is a very basic and simple soup, yet it is one which is many peoples favourite.
The beauty of it is that it can be altered in consistency or blended slightly to give more texture and still be absolutely delicious!
Serves: 4-6 people
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 30 minutes
4 Large leeks
1 Medium onion – chopped into small pieces
2 Medium sized potatoes – peeled and chopped into smallish cubes
50g Butter
850ml Vegetable stock
275 ml Milk Salt and black pepper to taste
To serve:
2 tbs cream or crème fraiche
Fresh herbs – chopped parsley or snipped chives
Begin by trimming the leeks, discarding the tough outer layer. Now split them in half lengthways and slice them quite finely, then wash them thoroughly in two or three changes of water to get rid of any dirt. Drain well.
In a large, thick-based saucepan, gently melt the butter, then add the leeks, onions and potatoes, stirring them well with a wooden spoon so they get a nice coating of butter. Season with salt and pepper, then cover and let the vegetables sweat (not browning) over a very low heat for about 15 minutes.
After that, add the stock and milk, bring to simmering point, cover and let the soup simmer very gently for a further 20 minutes or until the vegetables are soft – if you have the heat too high the milk in it may cause it to boil over.
Now you can put the whole lot into a blender,or use a hand blender (leave it to cool a little first) and blend to a purée. If you have to blend the soup in batches, make sure you have a bowl to hand to put the first batch into. For a different texture try blending only half the soup and then add back into the original mix.
Now return the soup to the saucepan and reheat gently, tasting to check the seasoning. Add a swirl of cream or crème fraîche before serving and sprinkle with the freshly snipped chives or parsley.

, which mixes classic jazz, soul, and a touch of hip hop. Her sound is grounded in jazz and R&B, which is evident on this album. What's great about this album is that Alexis is very transparent in her lyrics, and the music is soulful and calming. I've never honestly been a huge jazz fan, but the different artists that I have heard in the genre always give a fun, yet relaxing vibe in their music. I definitely looked forward to checking out Alexis' project.
Check out my review below!
Alexis' album is comprised of mostly slow or mid-tempo tracks, and several of them are love-centric. Alexis has no problem expressing her feelings in songs like "We Can Do This," and "Love Thing," both mellow and calming. She sings to her love about their relationship, expressing that they can have a clear future if they believe in each other and try to make things work.
The inspirational track "Steady You Go" is a standout song on the album, pushing listeners to keep going in life in spite of rocky roads and long journeys ahead to reach desired paths.
"Clap Your Hands" is another moving track that celebrates the good in life, versus always focusing on the negative. Alexis sings, "You may stress and strife...but if you love life, you better clap your hands." It just reminded me personally that, yes, life can get rough, but at the end of the day, I'm still living and I should make the most of each day.
Other tracks include "Sweet Silent Hunger," "Maybe Baby," and "Whoever You Are," as well as an interlude of spoken word from artist mTkalla Keaton. The chilling ballad "Just A Song," also a single, ends the album on a strong note.
Girl Next Door is a relaxing, positive album to listen to. Alexis' voice definitely has pure soul, and her lyrics are real and honest. My only wish is that there were a few more songs with a change of pace aside from the slow tempo that mostly takes over the album. "MI Crooked Letter" breaks away from the pack, but it would've been nice to hear a few other more upbeat tracks. Overall, however, the album is a nice listen. Alexis does have a beautiful voice, and a great message for listeners.
RATING: ★★★★☆ (four out of five stars)
The album is available on iTunes NOW, so be sure to buy a copy! You can hear more from Alexis on her official website and SoundCloud, as well as connect with her on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube!

If you are eligible for the Home Owner Grant (HOG) you must advise your Mortgagor of the grant that you qualify for. This grant must be claimed each year that you are eligible, and cannot be signed by your Mortgagor.
If eligible, to avoid penalty for late payment of the grant portion of your property taxes, you must apply for a grant on or before the tax due date. You may apply before the tax due date. If the grant is not claimed prior to the due date, you will be levied a penalty on the total property tax amount outstanding of which your unclaimed grant is a part of. Home Owner Grants must be claimed each year. Homeowner Grant Application Forms are located on the bottom portion of the tax notice.
Property tax overpayments can occur as a result of both the property owner and mortgagor paying the property taxes. Conversely, property tax underpayments and consequently penalties arise as a result of the property owner believing that the 'Mortgagor (bank) will take care of it all'. The Mortgagor cannot claim the Home Owner Grant - it is your responsibility, if eligible, to claim the grant on or before the tax due date, to avoid a 10% penalty on the unclaimed grant portion of your property taxes.

As an early crocodile relative, its skull featured more crocodilian characteristics than its earlier ancestors; it had short jaws that broadened out at the base of the skull, providing a large surface to which its jaw muscles could attach. This increased the maximum gape of the animal's mouth and the force with which the jaws could be closed. The dentition of the animal also resembled modern crocodiles, including the teeth in the lower jaw that fitted into notches on either side of the upper jaw when the mouth was closed.[1] It also possessed a powerful tail which later developed into a propulsion mechanism through water in its descendants.
Three species of Protosuchus have been described: the type species P. richardsoni [2] from Arizona, USA, P. micmac [3] from Nova Scotia, Canada and P. haughtoni [4] from South Africa.

See you again
My sweet grandma entered her heavenly home a few hours ago. I am relieved that she is no longer in pain & has become whole again. I know that my Grandpa was waiting at the gate with his guitar! Thank you to everyone for your support & prayers during her illness. We love you all.

Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) is a procedure where nerve root compression caused by a cervical disc herniation is relieved through the front of the neck. In order to stabilize the cervical segment, fusion surgery is usually performed during the same procedure. As with any surgical procedure, there are certain patients who tend to be better candidates than others.
Standard Criteria for ACDF Candidates
A cervical disc herniation is likely to respond well to non-surgical options such as certain prescription or over-the-counter medications. However, when non-surgical options do not work, standard criteria for ACDF candidates include:
- Persistent pain for at least 6-8 weeks without any sign of improvement
- Related arm pain that becomes worse than the neck pain from the herniated disc
- The herniated disc is large enough to place ongoing pressure on nearby nerves
- Pain returns to the same level after various therapies and non-surgical procedures (NSAIDs, physical therapy, selective nerve root block)
Additional Patient Concerns
ACDF is considered a very reliable procedure when it comes to relieving disc pain that doesn't respond well to other treatment options. Patients often do not have problems with:
Range of Motion
The location of the neck fusion performed as part of an ACDF doesn't involve an area involved with significant neck movement, meaning that patients usually retain most or all of their normal range of motion.
Noticeable Incision
The incision for ACDF is typically made parallel to the natural folds of the skin, meaning scaring is minimal and will fade over time.
Difficulty swallowing, according to some estimates, can occur in about 18 percent of patients. Described as a feeling of having something stuck in your throat, this usually goes away over time.
If an ACDF procedure is deemed necessary, patients can typically return home the same day. Are you interested in learning more about ACDF surgery and if you are a good candidate?

How to Design a Successful
Enterprise Website
Strong Visuals
Regardless of the industry you are serving, imagery plays an essential role in conveying to an audience what it is that you do. The digital world relies heavily on using visuals and media to tell stories, and incorporating these elements into your website design should never be overlooked. While content allows for greater detail, imagery lets you capture the attention of your visitors from the very beginning. Utilize these elements as a segue to lead your audience to more descriptive content that elaborates on your products and services. These visuals let you to showcase your work, without cluttering the design of your website.
Catered Content
To supplement your striking visuals, the design of your website needs content that is optimized for both search, and the experience of your users. It should match the language of your industry and your audience so that it can easily be consumed and shared. This content needs to fulfill the interests of your visitors, and provide them with the information they are looking for. Often this requires translating the complexity of the work that you do into terms that are more coherent. Having this content featured throughout your enterprise website increases your credibility within the market, and allows users to view your business as more than just a corporation.
Mobile Optimization
As an enterprise organization, your clients need to be able to access your business from any device at any time. Having a responsive website design sets a standard for the way in which you run your company, and the quality of work that you produce. Not only does your website need to be accessible to mobile users, but the design needs to be optimized for mobile devices. That includes specific design elements that enhance the user experience on each individual platform. Making sure that these details are taken care of shows visitors that you are serious about your business, and serious about making it easy for them to become a customer.
Fresh Resources
With a strong online presence you can use your website to show audiences more than just your products and services. Be sure to include navigation options that lead users to the additional resources you provide. Blogs, infographics, whitepapers, and informative videos are all opportunities for your business to showcase its knowledge and credibility as thought-leaders within your industry. These elements create additional value for your company, and communicate to users the professional and educational messaging that you want to convey.
Clear Navigation
For a professional enterprise website design to be successful, the audience should never have to wonder what the next step in their navigation should be. No matter what steps are necessary in order to turn a visitor into a conversion, your design should provide enough information to naturally lead them down that path. Having creative calls to action allows for flexibility in customizing the best navigation possible for each of your visitors. Be sure to take advantage of this and present audiences with different options to interact with your brand, so that when it comes time for them to make a final decision, the conversion feels natural and organic for both you and your new client.

One day soon, children won't even understand what a movie shop is. All movies and videos will be download facebook videos online, creating a visit to the movie shop an anachronism. Do not laugh. Next time you ask a child to roll down the chimney, and they inquire why folks say that, you will understand what I believe. They will soon think exactly the identical way about going to rent a film.
The benefits for the user are enormous, particularly in this time of high gas costs and traffic that is terrible. Who wants to drive anyplace to go get their movie content when it could just be downloaded? A mouse is much more suitable. As more individuals view their personal computer as the middle of the entertainment program, the times of the video shop are numbered. With the launch of Microsoft's Vista operating system, which includes enormous integrated entertainment and video abilities, the user took another giant step in embracing their personal computer as the middle of the entertainment world.
As countless individuals bought iPODs and to a lesser extent Microsoft Zunes for cellular video screening, they've become accustom to getting their articles downloaded, instead of really waiting for this to be sent or forcing to receive it themselves. The Zune has undergone marginally slower earnings, despite a bigger, brighter full-color display and WiFi networking capacity, two attributes that have to have helped Microsoft shut the gap with Apple.
Many reason why the Zune has neglected to market on a level with all the iPOD are because of Microsoft's marketing plan for your participant. For example, though the Zune comes from several colours, Microsoft has neglected to satisfactorily communicate this reality to the purchasing public. Another reason for your Zune's slow earnings must do with Microsoft's propensity to spell out the Zune using marketingspeak, rather than clearly explaining to customers why they need you.
In May of 2007, Microsoft attempted to reverse their prior failure to catch the imagination of customers with the debut of the Halo 3 variant of their Zune. This particular edition is packed with unique Halo sound and video content, such as Halo soundtracks, theatrical props, and a unique episode of Red vs Blue only accessible for your Zune. Additionally, it is emblazoned with Halo 3 images.
There are fewer technical explanations for why the Zune has failed to ditch the iPOD from the mobile video player market. Perhaps the major one must do with their laborious choice to exclude a scroll wheel variant the Zune's attribute set. While it's a controller that appears for all the world like a scroll wheel, it is really a 4-way cursor button, such as on a TV remote controller. A 4-way cursor is how many customers wish to control their mobile movie players, so they've voted with their dollars in favor of the iPOD. That having been said, that the Zune is a truly wonderful player, and the movie quality is excellent for a little mobile. For those users who have purchased their components together with this in mind they have the capacity to obtain and enjoy a variety of movies, TV shows and films on a really fine, mobile platform.
Video content is encouraged in H.264, which can be called MPEG-4 component 10. The Zune utilizes, 1 guess, Microsoft's WMA and WMV formats for both video and audio respectively. The two players will let JPEG image formats. There are lots of file format converters available to be used with both gamers to allow video from different resolutions and formats to be optimized and converted for both storage and use with the mobile players.
There are lots of areas to receive downloadable video content to the iPOD and the Zune. If you are an iPOD user, there is definitely iTunes, which features songs for $.99 per downloaded song. Although this is convenient and provides a huge assortment of accessible content, customers should be ready to devote substantial sums of cash filling up a participant.
The boundless alternative is known as the "Zune Pass" from Microsoft. Zune users have the ability to download individual songs or whole albums. At June of 2007, Microsoft started partnering with different artists to advertise their download service as well as the Zune player.
A favorite choice chosen by many customers is just one of many boundless video streaming solutions. With these solutions, you pay a 1 time fee, typically between $30 and $75, and are subsequently able to obtain an unlimited quantity of audio and movie content. Obviously, many customers believe it makes more economical sense to pursue this strategy, rather than the subscription based download version. A number of the networks have an enormous amount of content available, and contain TV shows and films, along with audio and videos.
With the majority of these solutions, when the material is downloaded it is permanently accessible for use. With a number of the subscription established boundless download solutions once the subscription is terminated, access to previously downloaded articles is refused.

Sometimes there are signs at the entrances of our apartment complex informing us of when the power, water or gas might be turned off. Generally, things go as planned, but on Friday after our vegetables were cleaned and chopped, we turned on our gas to toss everything in the wok and alas there was no gas!
I asked our friend if there was a sign outside and she said no. Hubs went and asked neighbors if they had any gas and apparently the entire neighborhood was out. PB&J for lunch! Chips & salsa for dinner! We later learned that they were working on the line. Thankfully, it was working again the next day.
When I see these signs, I pay attention the heading which normally says "gas" or "water" or "electricity". Now I know what we're not going to have.
Then, I look at the time which is always in bold face. Ok, I know when it will leave and return. thankyousomuch.

Kylie Jenner Photograph:( Twitter )
Kylie Jenner, a social media star, fashion guru and owner of a cosmetic giant named Kylie Cosmetics is proof that passion can take you to places as she is set to become the youngest billionaire, according to Forbes magazine.
Worth $900 million (£680m), the 20-year-old former Keeping Up With The Kardashians star is only a $100 million away from dethroning Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg as the youngest to hit the mark. Mark made it at the age of 23 with his social media platform Facebook that changed the way people interact with one another. Read about Kylie Jenner's Indian connection.
According to Forbes, the social media star Kylie Jenner who is a hit among the youth is on the track of becoming "the youngest-ever self-made billionaire" in its latest update. Read about Kylie's star power.
How 20-year-old Kylie Jenner built a $900 million fortune in less than 3 years:https://t.co/PtJG2vfl3k #SelfMadeWomen pic.twitter.com/JLDtlir40k— Forbes (@Forbes) July 11, 2018
Kylie has made a huge fortune for herself by launching a cosmetics brand that became an instant hit --in less than three years. Her sister, Kim Kardashian (considered most popular among all) is way behind her, sitting on a net worth of $350 million. Forbes in their post wrote: "What her half-sister Kim Kardashian West did for booty, Jenner has done for full lips," citing what has worked for the star.
Kylie Jenner became famous for her pout, the one which she proudly announced was because of lip injections, known as dermal fillers. Her cosmetics line also played on the idea of fuller lips with products aimed at giving people the desired effect of fuller lips. However, earlier in the week she announced to stop taking the fillers.
thank you @Forbes for this article and the recognition. I'm so blessed to do what i love everyday. #KylieCosmetics pic.twitter.com/CRBwlBByk9— Kylie Jenner (@KylieJenner) July 11, 2018
Interestingly, Kylie is not even legally allowed to drink in the US, as she will turn 21 in August -- while she has made a fortune for herself.
She is number 27 on Forbes list of richest self-made women in America, leapfrogging Barbra Streisand ($400m), Beyonce Knowles ($335m) and Taylor Swift ($320m).
While many support the idea of a woman so young making it to the top, some don't like Forbes calling her "self-made" as she comes from a privileged background. These are some tweets:
"Kylie Jenner" being put on the Forbes cover and called "self made" is laughable....really? Someone born into one of the wealthiest families in America is self made? Must be two "self mades"— MS.LOULOU (@MsJazzybelle) July 11, 2018
Did Kylie Jenner just get shaded by.... the DICTIONARY??? https://t.co/cdgUDbgXRV— Ben Wegmann (@benwegmann) July 11, 2018
brooo how in the world is Kylie Jenner classified as "self made" ?? Born rich, never had to grind for anything, never struggled with money or rising to the top? I feel like that's just disrespect to all the fearless women who sacrificed everything to make it on Forbes list smh— Lucas Bentes (@LBentess) July 11, 2018
Kylie recently gave birth to her first child with boyfriend rapper Travis Scott.

So I've moved on to a Czechvar, a slightly more bitter beer than I'm used to but a thousand times better than that Miller swill I just had.
If you like a bitter lager I recommend this Czech lager.
If you are cleaning and packing up your plastic crack, I highly recommend the Czechvar with Tiny Bradshaw conducting in the background.

All the Friendly Beasts
I felt too good to be at work yesterday so with a claim of mental wellness I made a run for it. Like a kid who drags his feet to purposefully miss the school bus I let the day's agenda ride off without me. After 11 inches of rain and two weekends off the bike my fight or ride response kicked in and I took control of my destiny. It was a friendly, helmet-less lap of Munson with this guy that led us to bump into this guy. Stopping and talking to strangers are usually not the BRC way, but it was a lovely day to be in the forest and all the gentle creatures came out to enjoy the sun.
When Leadville Eric first came around us, the People's Republic of Jesse asked if I would normally ride as fast as he was going. Without a word I ka-chunked the Highball into the big ring and vectored in on the the disappearing wheel in front of us. I closed the gap until I was satisfied I had him if I wanted, then drifted back to my novice friend.
Yeah, I would normally chase him down and salt the earth with the dismayed sweat of his brow, but you know, I'm looking out for you, and I don't have my helmet, and I ate a burrito for lunch and it's riding kind of high, so I spared him this time.
Imagine my surprise when this mysterious rider pulled up at the old trailhead. We chatted bikes, tires, and tech while the People's Republic of Jesse listened, then another rider joined us. He was a barrel-chested brother on a black Ellsworth, a reader of the BRC, and therefore a man among men. Leadville Eric told us about the adventure he and his wife are enjoying, traveling North America and hitting premiere destinations like Tallahassee, FL. A veteran of RAGBRAI and a lottery winner for the Leadville 100 I considered amending my estimation to PR of J concerning my ability to catch the young gentleman from Indiana, but as a local on my home dirt I had not the grace in my heart to grant such a concession.
Still, Holly and Eric can expect the full support of the BRC in their travels, and at Leadville.

Juancho-- mountain biking's local version of the Welcome Wagon. How'd you spin the new clay and the the torched benches and signs at Munson? I recall you mounting the bloggy soapbox to rail against the former. The latter could be those pesky Earth Firsters, maybe?

I tried to work my rant into the conversation, you can trust that.
For the record I don't miss the benches or the signs and I will not miss the clay when it's gone. They turned a natural trail into a wave pool. It's like chipping holds on El Capitan. Vandalizing a great thing to appease the lazy masses. Munson in its current form is like the beautiful girl next door strung out on meth and painted trashy with lipstick and eyeliner.

This casino is restricted in your country
Here are some alternatives for you:
Spin and Win Casino
Play dozens of fun and unique slots
Players from United States not acceptedVISIT CASINO
Welcome to our Spin and Win Casino review.
I'm not going to waste your time with a huge intro. Just know this –
If you're searching for a better than average casino and you don't live in the United States, then you'll want to take a few minutes to read this to the very end.
Let's do this.
Let's talk offers first. There are few promos worth checking out here.
The first is their welcome bonus. On the first deposit you'll get a 100% match up to £500. Then on the second and third deposit they will match you 50% up to £250.
Then during your first month Spin and Win will pay you 25% cash back.
The play through on this offer is 25x (for slots) which happens to be very low.
(Note – You cannot get the bonus if you use Neteller to make your deposit.)
That's their core offer. After that you can partake in promotions such as:
There is a loyalty scheme, too, with 6 tiers. It comes with perks like:
And more.
As soon as you make a deposit you'll become a member. The more you deposit the higher the status you'll start at.
With that out of the way let's look at what games you can play.
Spin and Win has TONS of games thanks to software providers like Microgaming, IGT, Bally, NetEnt and Daub Games.
What I like most is how easy it is to find the exact games you want to play. Spin and Win has them neatly laid out for you to find.
Just check out all the types of slots you can play:
And thanks to Microgaming and friends there are lots of great titles to choose from. Some that caught my eye include:
This barely scratches the surface, too. Because of who they work with I wouldn't be surprised if they have more than 200 slot machines.
No doubt you'll find plenty of other casino games.
For example, you can play more than 20 table games. That includes roulette, blackjack, casino holdem, casino stud, craps, pai gow poker and more.
They do have a smallish selection of video poker games, which is both surprising and disappointing.
Other than that they have a live casino with 7 roulette variations (which is SUPER odd) and 2 blackjack variations.
All their games – slots included – can be played from your browser. No download is needed. Select games are available on Android and Apple phones and tablets.
Spin and Win accepts these banking methods:
Their minimum deposit is £10. This is great for players on a budget, or for those that want to just test Spin and Win out first before making a larger commitment.
For withdrawals you can use the same options plus paper checks. The min cash out is 10 units, which depends on the option you use.
If you have any questions you can contact Spin and Win 24/7 through email, phone and live chat.
We give them an A-.
Unlike other casinos we've reviewed – like FreeSpins Casino– they have plenty of offers, slot games and experience.
For that reason they've earned a spot in the top 10 percent.
And our recommendation. Sign up today.

What is an "office?" Is it a building off somewhere, or perhaps that spare bedroom? Or maybe it's the spot on your coffee table where you sit with a laptop and pretend to work while you watch TV?
When I first started writing, my office was my bedroom. Specifically, it was the table where I set up my TRS-80 computer. I sat and wrote all day.
When I wasn't writing fiction, I would code. I bounced back and forth. I suppose it's dumb luck that I sold an article before I sold some little program I wrote.
The picture below (from this page here on the Wambooli web site) is from my office in my first apartment, located in El Cajon, California. It's barely an office, but it's where I wrote many, many things. Not one of them was published.
Two moves later, the office moved out into the living room. Then, when I upgraded to a two-bedroom apartment, the second, smaller bedroom became my office. It eventually became so packed with gear, that I was nearing the point of swapping to the master bedroom for the office. Then I moved again.
In the first home I rented, my office was a downstairs bedroom. It was cramped. I almost moved the office into the downstairs living room, but ended up moving out of the rental and into my first home.
Our first home had a granny apartment over the two-car garage. It had a nice big living room, kitchen, bath, and two bedrooms. The whole thing was my office, but I divided it into three parts.
The living room was my outer office, where I would entertain guests. No one ever showed up, of course. But there were some nice chairs to set in, an oak desk, plus lots of storage for office supplies.
The kitchen had coffee, of course, plus a small fridge that I would forget to stock with snacks and drinks. The microwave heated many a cup of coffee.
The northwest bedroom I used for storage. It was my computer boneyard. It also had tables with some PCs and a Mac set up. I had hired an assistant for a time, and she would work in that office. There was also a futon in that office, for those times I needed to take a nap. (And, no, I never did "mess" with my assistant.)
The main office was packed. It's shown below, and you can read the full description here.
My office today? You'll have to wait until Friday to read about it!

You are also welcome to join the KPU International Facebook page and use this as a venue to make contact with other international and exchange students who may also be looking for accommodation and/or roommates. Of course, you must have a Facebook account in order to access this page.
Since most international students will not have access to a personal mode of transportation (such as a car), it is comforting to know that there are reliable transit systems at your fingertips.
Airport Transportation
If you plan to land at the Vancouver International Airport in Richmond, you have the option of taking a taxi, a limousine, or using TransLink public transportation to get to your next destination in the Metro Vancouver area. Be sure to have available an easily-accessible copy of the street address and city name that shows where you are headed to next.
Rates vary, depending on your destination and your mode of transportation. If you will be living in the city of Richmond, Surrey/Cloverdale or Langley, it is recommended that you take a taxi (or limousine) from the airport to your new home.
|By Taxi
|By Limousine
|To Richmond
|$15 - $20
|$35 - $50
|To Surrey/Cloverdale
|$50 - $75
|$60 - $80
|To Langley
|$90 - $100
Here you will find detailed information on the variety of transit options to get you out of the airport and on your way to your next destination: http://www.yvr.ca/en/getting-to-from-yvr.aspx
Public Transportation
Vancouver's regional public transit agency, TransLink, provides extensive transportation services in Metro Vancouver, including Bus (road passage), SeaBus (passenger ferry), SkyTrain (automated rapid transit system), and West Coast Express (commuter rail) services. Detailed information regarding schedules, maps, and fares can be found here: http://www.translink.ca/
Note: KPU students who regularly commute between the Richmond and Surrey campuses for classes, for example, use Translink's convenient bus 'number 301' to get them there on time.
Inter-campus Transportation
KPU is a multi-campus university and we are pleased to provide students, faculty and staff with shuttle bus service between the campuses. This convenient method of transportation will get you safely from one campus to another. And it is easy to use: simply show your valid KPU Library ID card to the driver as you get onto the bus. No payment is required. Note: You can pick up your Library ID card once you arrive at the beginning of the term. Note: There is no shuttle service to and from the Richmond campus. Instead, take Translink's bus 'number 301' for direct service between the Richmond and Surrey campuses. See inter-campus shuttle bus schedule.
Distance and Travel Times from Campus to Campus
With five campuses spread across Metro Vancouver, you are advised to always check the campus location of your courses before registering and be careful not to register for back-to-back courses on different campuses. If your course plan must include registering for courses on different campuses, plan for adequate travel time between classes, keeping in mind that you may have to rely on the shuttle bus schedule, for example, to transport you from one campus to the other.
For your convenience, here is a guide to travel distance (in km) and approximate driving time (in minutes) between KPU campuses:
|Civic Plaza
|From Surrey to
|24.1 km (25 mins.)

March 2011 |Newsletter archives
According to the National Osteoporosis Foundation (NOF), there are an estimated 10 million individuals who have osteoporosis and another 34 million people with low bone mass. But unless you have been diagnosed with osteoporosis, you are probably like most people and have never really considered how you can protect your bones for the future. Your bones are active, living tissue that needs proper care and nourishment. But, unlike the health of your skin or digestive tract, your bone health is hard to gauge. Ask your doctor about simple, non-invasive tests that can be used to measure the rate of your bone breakdown and rebuilding.
Healthy bones are more than just a support for the rest of the body. Bones protect our internal organs from damage, are the factory for our blood cells and are the storehouse for minerals and nutrients needed throughout the body. With all of these critical functions for our health, understanding how to maintain and build healthy bones is an important part of investing for a healthy future—no matter what your age.
Too Early or Too Late?
Studies have shown a significant reduction in developing osteoporosis for individuals who achieved optimal bone density during their peak bone building years of childhood and adolescence. For most people, bone mass begins to decrease sometime in their 30's, and bone loss continues as they age. Even though this is a naturally occurring cycle, the speed of bone loss can be significantly affected by proper nutrition, exercise and healthy lifestyle choices.
No matter what your age, it is never too early or too late to take the necessary steps to build and protect your bones. And because bone building naturally declines with age, it is important to stick to healthy lifestyle habits and continue bone-building supplement protocols to maintain bone health.
The Calicium Confusion
Great emphasis has been placed on the importance of calcium for bone health. Everything from fortified orange juice to antacids has been touted as beneficial to bone building. But healthy bones require more than a calcium supplement or a glass of milk. Bone loss is not caused by low calcium intake; calcium alone cannot prevent bone loss.
Calcium, although important, is one of several essential minerals required for bone building. Supplements are a great way to provide your body with the minerals and nutrients needed.
The Bone Remodeling Cycle
A common misperception about the characteristics of bone is that it is hard, chalky material. In fact, bone is a living tissue that is continually being broken down and rebuilt- a process call remodeling. This process depends on the actions of the osteoclast and osteoblast within the bone matrix to keep the bone structure healthy and strong.
The actions of the osteoclast have a signaling effect on the osteoblast, which then build new bone. Many common pharmaceuticals target the action of the osteoclast in an attempt to slow down the rate of bone loss, but this slows the actions of the osteoblast and prohibits new bone construction. Healthy bones depend on this natural process and it is important to support bone remodeling in order to build and protect your bones.
Why Guess?
Measuring bone loss and rebuilding is important for you and your doctor to gauge the effectiveness of your bone health protocol. There are simple, non-invasive diagnostic tests that will measure your rate of bone turnover. These easy-to-take urine tests allow your doctor to make an accurate assessment of your rate of bone loss, which can identify a potential risk for osteoporosis while there is still time to prescribe intervention treatment. These tests can also be conducted regularly to allow your doctor to monitor the effectiveness of the lifestyle changes and supplements they have recommended for your bone health.
Ask your doctor for more information on testing to assess your bone health.

Men's soccer comes from behind to draw with SBCC
It would be wise for Santa Monica College Corsair men's goalkeeper Quetzalcoatl Badillo to learn what midfielder Duncan Bochicchio's favorite restaurant is, because, for scoring the tying goal in Friday's 3-3 draw against Santa Barbra City College, Badillo owes Bochicchio dinner. The sophomore Bochicchio saved the day for the Corsairs when he completed a two goal comeback, started by sophomore foward Jonathan Navas, on a through ball chip in past Vaquero net minder Oscar Haard-Thelm in the 78 minuet.
The game was on Bochicchio's foot in the dying moments as he cut through the heart of the Vaquero back line only to be met with a hard challenge that went uncalled, causing the Corsair bench to explode.
"I had him pretty twisted up and I think [the defender] swung his leg and it should have been a foul that would have changed the game," Bochicchio said.
The sophomore net-minder Badillo forced the Corsair comeback after putting them behind after two absolutely disastrous misplays on the goal line.
The first came at the end of the first half when Badillo, in an attempt to usher the ball into the corner, turned the ball over 50 feet from his net and allowed it to be crossed to Vaquero freshman midfielder Jonathan Mora who tapped it into the empty net.
"It's pretty obvious to everyone that it was a mistake, including him. To learn from the mistake is the real lesson there," SMC head coach Tim Pierce told Badillo at the half.
The second came in the 50 minuet when he redirected a shot straight in to the heart of the box and to the waiting foot of Vaquero sophomore defender Mehdi Badache.
Though Badillo's boneheaded plays put the Corsairs on the verge of their sixth loss of the season, he found no help from a porous back line that, though it did not break in the final minuets, allowed Vaquero forwards to run through them like bulls through the cape.
The trial of Pierce at the hands of officials continued Friday afternoon when he was warned twice by match referees for arguing calls. Unlike Tuesday's game against LA Mission however, there were no clever lines from the Corsair sideline.
"It's bound to turn around a little bit," Pierce said of the officiating in the recent past. "We haven't had great officiating but that is kind of the nature of the game."
The draw moves SMC to 3-6-3 on the season and 3-2-2 in conference and SBCC moves to 4-7-1 for the year and 3-3-1 in conference play.

We all got them. Games we would love to see made. Some are more ambitious than others. Some would be logistically impossible to make. I've mentioned nine titles I would like to see that are mostly sequels with vague wishes for moderate improvements to graphics and gameplay. For this post though I have an idea for a game that if I really wanted to I could probably write down in detail. Perhaps even forge a design document should I feel so inclined. In the interests of post length I wont do that for now. Instead, I'll just give you the abridged version. So what is this game I'm getting at? Well...you know that series called Valkyria Chronicles? How about that but at sea instead of on land.
first person shooter. I mean something with some style and substance. We've have three titles all set on land why not have some action on the high seas? Looking a map of "Europa" it's not hard to see plenty of interesting locations for fleets of warship to clash.

Under-27s organise in UNISON to combat the challenges of being a young public service worker. South West young members cover everything from the transition from education to employment, tackling the spread of insecure and low-paid work, and broader problems like the cost of housing or transport.
Who are you? The South West Regional Young Members Forum
And what do you do? Act as the voice of young workers in the South West, bring together active young UNISON members, and help to facilitate new young member's involvement in the union.
Sounds impressive, how do you go about doing that? In all sorts of ways. Largely by campaigning and running activities around the issues that matter most to Young Members, identified in a survey as, access to affordable housing and the introduction of a Living Wage for all, regardless of age.
So you organise events around these campaigns? Yes, we organise petitioning and other forms of public engagement to advocate for improvements in these areas. We also help to signpost those affected by low pay and housing difficulties where they can go for support.
We have also designed material around these key issues which we encourage active Young Members to publicise in their workplaces.
Nice work! How's all this organised? We hold Regional Forum meetings once every three months (either in our Bristol or Taunton office), where young members attend to help to plan these activities, along with our events such as young member socials and volunteering opportunities at music festivals including Glastonbury and Tolpuddle Martyrs.
We try to keep these meetings fun by combining them with a training session or another activity- and provide lunch of course!
Sounds great- who is eligible to get involved? Any UNISON Member who is under the age of 27 can be involved with the forum and our activities. No previous experience with UNISON is necessary.
For more information about South West young members contact firstname.lastname@example.com or Charlie on email@example.com
Follow our young members group on twitter @unisonymsw and like them on Facebook
