At Prairie Health and Wellness we consider that health is more than the absence of disease. I'm a mother of three teenage daughters, and a wife of 19 yrs. I'm in the the method of constructing my own enterprise and loving it. I have labored outdoors the house for 15 yrs and its gotten me nowhere, so I've decided to make my own path with a bit of assist from a prime notch firm and one of the best product. I imagine when you cease dreaming life simply happens, so I've started to dream once more, so my life would not just occur, I make it happen.
I'll be taking a better look at different features of the healthcare debate over the course of the subsequent few weeks. Be happy to offer recommendations or comments. I take criticism as an opportunity to be taught, so don't be hesitant to say what you are pondering. Let me understand how you feel, and thanks for studying. I think we nonetheless live in the land of opportunity and we need to look extra to the alternatives that this law is creating and fewer at what we may lose.
Nevertheless, on the time I was merely enthusiastic about getting to see some of LHSA's vast collection and didn't foresee the impact that this could have on my life and future profession. I grew to become actually inspired by the archive and the function of the archivist. When finding out history there is one query you might be steadily asked by friends, family and other people you meet – what are you going to do with a historical past diploma, turn out to be a trainer?" To be truthful, I had no actual thought what I used to be going to do to begin with as I used to be simply enjoying studying and creating the set of skills needed for history. However that changed after my seminars with LHSA: I now discovered myself responding to that just about rhythmically frequent question – I quite fancy a profession in archives".
However this has always been about extra than just statistics. All over the place I went as I ran for President back in 2007, 2008, everyplace I've gone as President, I would hear tales from folks identical to you of insurers that denied a child coverage as a result of he had a preexisting situation like bronchial asthma; of most cancers survivors that had to choose between their house or their health care; of small businesses who wanted to do the right thing by their workers however had seen their insurance coverage premiums go up so excessive that they only couldn't do it anymore.
We went right down to our native Bikram studio and fortunately everyone was extraordinarily nice and useful and we simply joined a class. Like with my physique assault lessons everyone was different sizes and shapes and had completely different abilities. Plus there were a couple of other newbies like us. Things Thought of, earlier than you decide me, you might want to understand that I used to be a COBRA Administrator for three years, and worked as a 1099 contractor selling insurance coverage for 1 yr. So my expertise isn't as limited as it's possible you'll assume.

Binge Reading and Writing
With reading, and everything else, I seem to go through spurts. I'll get all excited about reading, purchase and download a lot of books, read them, and then all of a sudden I stop for a while. Then a few months will go by where I won't read at all but it will pass and I'll start again. I'm not a steady and constant reader I guess. I go through spurts.
It's the same with most anything else I enjoy. I do it with writing and I do it with blogging. I don't know why this happens, where I take interest and go at it hard and heavy and then it just stops all of a sudden, for no apparent reason. But I don't worry, because I know it always comes back again.
So I am back on a reading jag. It's time. It's been a few months since I picked up a book so I know I am due for a reading binge. Plus, I blame the movie, The Great Gatsby, too. It has made me want to take another stab at the book. And so I am.
Here is a list of books I just purchased for my Nook w/Glowlight:
The Debutante – by Kathleen Tessaro
The Great Gatsby – by F. Scott Fitzgerald
The Life and Writing of Nora Ephron – The New York Times
The writing bug is also trying to nip at me too. As in writing and working on my novel again. I put it down stopped writing on it, earlier in the year, around January/February time frame.
So anyway, off I go…

Nurses must balance their concerns about personal safety with their responsibility to be informed about Ebola, in order to prevent the spread of misinformation and panic. That's the message contained in a commentary authored by American Sentinel professor Eileen Thomas, Ph.D., MSN, RN, for ADVANCE for Nurses. It's a must-read for all working nurses, who are being faced with a deluge of media reports and rapidly changing clinical guidelines.
Will history repeat itself?
In a thoughtful and engaging style, Dr. Thomas has crafted a compelling comparison between the spread of Ebola today and the emergence of HIV/AIDS in the 1980s. With both diseases, she says, as the number of cases increased, so did reports of related stigma and fear – resulting in the widespread mistreatment of both patients and at-risk populations. In the case of HIV/AIDS, people who feared they had been exposed to the virus then became reluctant to seek testing and/or treatment, allowing a dreaded disease to gain a foothold and spread across the globe. We cannot let history repeat itself, says Dr. Thomas.
Instead, we should look to history for reassurances that we can safely deal with Ebola while maintaining a high level of compassion for patients. Dr. Thomas points out that while nurses feared HIV/AIDS through the mid-1990s, in some cases refusing to care for infected patients, their apprehension faded as knowledge increased. "Over time," she wrote, "through education regarding information on how this virus is spread and how to take proper precautions to prevent contracting or spreading the virus, fears and attitudes among nurses towards caring for patients with HIV/AIDS were changed."
Armed with knowledge, nurses can break the cycle
Dr. Thomas points out that, according to Gallup polls, Americans consistently rank nurses as the most trusted profession. With this trust comes accountability. Nurses have a professional responsibility to learn the facts about the Ebola virus, she says, and should be held accountable for relaying accurate information about Ebola. Since nurses make up the largest component of the healthcare professions, they can negate health-related stigmas. They can help ensure that Ebola does not become the next tragic pandemic, and that fear does not trump common sense.
What do you currently know about Ebola? What concerns do you have? After reading Dr. Thomas' commentary online, we suggest this piece by epidemiologist Betsy Todd, MPH, RN, CIC, titled Ebola: A Nurse Epidemiologist Puts the Outbreak in Perspective.
American Sentinel University has also compiled a list of reliable resources, so you'll have the facts at your fingertips.
About us
American Sentinel University is proud to have Dr. Eileen Thomas on our nursing faculty. Dr. Thomas is an accomplished educator who has taught across all levels of nursing at several universities. Her interests in global health lead her to develop and teach a global health nursing course for undergraduate and graduate nursing students. She believes that knowledge is the key to managing Ebola patients and preventing an outbreak within a hospital, community, or worldwide.
Are you interested in keeping patients and providers safe from pathogens in a hospital environment? If planning, implementing, and evaluating infection prevention and control measures appeals to you, consider making this in-demand field your career specialty. As a first step, you can develop new skills and empower yourself with knowledge through an online RN to MSN degree with a specialization in infection control from American Sentinel University, an innovative, accredited provider of online nursing degrees.

Setting employment goals can be a challenging activity for both the employee and the employer. It is important that these goals are supportive of the individual's interests and skills, without sacrificing the mission and results that are needed for the company. Unfortunately, workplace goals often fall to the backburner when employees are focused on the […]

In 1996, Martin Bryant entered a café in Port Arthur, Australia. He killed 35 people and wounded 23 others using a semiautomatic rifle and a semiautomatic assault weapon.
The Australian government, then recently headed by Prime Minister John Howard, swiftly acted.
"The fundamental problem" Howard wrote in a New York Times op-ed 17 years after the Port Arthur massacre "was the ready availability of high-powered weapons which enabled people to convert their murderous impulses into mass killing. Certainly shortcomings in treating mental illness and the harmful influence of violent video games may have played a role. But nothing trumps easy access to a gun."
The Australian National Firearms Agreement was passed banning the sale of semiautomatic assault-type weapons. A further measure was taken in the form of a federally financed gun buy-back program. The Australian government purchased and destroyed nearly 700,000 guns.
As a result of Australia's gun-control measures, Australia's firearm homicides fell by 59 percent. There has not been a mass shooting in Australia since the 1996 tragedy in Port Arthur.
I am not opposed to gun ownership. The majority of gun owners are highly responsible citizens. But it doesn't take an AR-15 to bring down a deer to help feed your family. It doesn't take a semiautomatic weapon to enjoy target practice at a local gun club.
Thoughts and prayers for the victims and their families are certainly not enough. "Waiting" to discuss gun control is absurd. It is time to demand that our elected officials work together now and act in good conscience to address this horrible epidemic of violence which has beset our nation.

Near the beginning of The Summer Book, little Sophia wakes up during a cold night and looks out the window into the dark:
"The ice was black, and in the middle of the ice she saw the open stove door and the fire—in fact she saw two stove doors, very close together. In the second window, the two fires were burning underground, and through the third window she saw a double reflection of the whole room, trunks and chests and boxes with gaping lids. They were filled with moss and snow and dry grass, all of them open, with bottoms of coal-black shadow. She saw two children out on the rock, and there was a rowan tree growing right through them. The sky behind them was dark blue.
She lay down in her bed and looked at the fire dancing on the ceiling, and all the time the island seemed to be coming closer and closer to the house. They were sleeping by a meadow near the shore, with patches of snow on the covers, and under them the ice darkened and began to glide. A channel opened very slowly in the floor, and all their luggage floated out in the river of moonlight. All the suitcases were open and full of darkness and moss, and none of them ever came back."

on a windy spit of land in Bodega Bay. Felt a little
overdressed in our Eurovan, but its warm and still

daylight," Peter shouted to us. "It's just me" in his gumby
The weather proved kinder in the morning. Warm sun and sand, just
enough charred firewood left at the end of the weekend
to toast a few more marshmallows, and enough wind to

What is the Engineer and Engineering :
◙ Engineering is : (1) Applied science, applied with moral behaviour. (2) Designing and building things that meet customer requirements. (3) Using scientific information for practical purposes. (4) Applying technology toward human needs. (5) The art of applying science to the optimum conversion of natural resources to the benefit of humankind. (6) The bridge between science and art.
◙ Engineering is the art of applying scientific and mathematical principles, experience, judgment, and common sense to make things that benefit people. In other words, engineering is the process of producing a technical product or system to meet a specific need. Engineering is the endeavor that creates, maintains, develops, and applies technology for societies' needs and desires.
◙ Engineers understand how to use techniques of engineering analysis to design and synthesis of working devices and processes even though they have an imperfect understanding of important physical, chemical or biological issues. Furthermore engineers operate under constraints caused by a need to produce a product or service that is timely, competitive, reliable, and consistent with the philosophy and within the financial means. Engineers are result driven and the detail of an engineering solution for a needed product, process or service is always determined by balancing competing effects to attain an answer that is optimal subject to the imposed constraints.
◙ To be an engineer, a student should understand how to bring together knowledge of previously solved problems and understanding of the current need to synthesize new solutions. A new solution might be quite complex but an engineer understands how it is really comprised of simple, well understood pieces.
◙ Engineers have an excellent record of success in the business world because they "think like engineers" in the solution of (at least some) business problems. Engineers have many different types of jobs to choose from, including research, design, analysis, development, testing, and sales positions.
◙ Engineering technology is the profession in which a knowledge of mathematics and natural sciences gained by higher education, experience, and practice is devoted primarily to the implementation and extension of existing technology for the benefit of humanity. Engineering technology education focuses primarily on the applied aspects of science and engineering aimed at preparing graduates for practice to product improvement, manufacturing, construction, and engineering operational functions. Thus engineering technology is the application of engineering principles and modern technology to help solve or prevent technical problems.
◙ The ability to compute separates the engineer from the technician. An education in engineering mathematics generates an insight into the generation of new QUALITATIVE ideas which will work.
1 Qualitative Design : The generation of ideas, structures, concepts, combinations, configurations and patterns. The results are expressed in sketches, layouts, schematics and diagrams.
2 Quantitative design: The computation of the magnitude of the elements in a qualitative design. The results are expressed in numbers, usually with physical units (e.g. length, voltage, temperature).
3 Experimental design : The use of physical models and tests to compensate for both qualitative and quantitative uncertainty."
◙ The work of engineers is the link between perceived social needs and commercial applications. Engineers consider many factors when developing a new product. For example, in developing an industrial robot, engineers precisely specify the functional requirements; design and test the robot's components; integrate the components to produce the final design; and evaluate the design's overall effectiveness, cost, reliability, and safety. This process applies to the development of many different products, such as chemicals, computers, engines, aircraft, and toys.
◙ In addition to design and development, many engineers work in testing, production, or maintenance. These engineers supervise production in factories, determine the causes of component failure, and test manufactured products to maintain quality. They also estimate the time and cost to complete projects. Some move into engineering management or into sales. In sales, an engineering background enables them to discuss technical aspects and assist in product planning, installation, and use. Supervisory engineers are responsible for major components or entire projects.
◙ Engineers use computers extensively to produce and analyze designs; to simulate and test how a machine, structure, or system operates; and to generate specifications for parts. Many engineers also use computers to monitor product quality and control process efficiency.
◙ Engineering is result driven and the primary goal is always the same: Find the Optimal solution to a problem. Optimal is usually modified or defined in the context of (for example):
1. Imperfect understanding of important physical/chemical/biological/ issues (limited time and money to find this understanding)
2. Financial - based on not necessarily well-defined markets or other social issues
3. Ability to actually produce the item or service as needed and promised.
4. Consistent with the philosophy and practice of the client or company.
Topics that if appropriately linked together demonstrate how engineers think:
"Building up complex problems from simple pieces (synthesis)"
Science and Engineering
◙ Engineers use creativity, technology, and scientific knowledge to solve practical problems. Engineers and scientists are often confused in the minds of the general public. While scientists explore nature in order to discover general principles, engineers apply established principles drawn from mathematics and science in order to develop economical solutions to technical problems.
◙ Science is the study of "natural" phenomena. It is the collection of theories, models, laws, and facts about the physical world and the methods used to create this collection. Physics, chemistry, biology, geology, etc. try to understand, describe, and explain the physical world that would exist even if there were no humans.
◙ Engineering is the creation, maintenance, and development of things that have not existed in the natural world and that satisfy some human desire or need. A television set does not grow on a tree. It is the creation of human ingenuity that first fulfilled a fantasy of a human need and then went on to change the society that created it. Science is the study of what is and engineering is the creation of can be. Science could not progress without technology, and engineering certainly could not flourish without science and mathematics. Most scientists (but not all) feel there is some unique objective truth behind the physical phenomena they are studying. Their goal is to find it and describe and explain it, and this truth is unique although the approaches and approximations to it are certainly not. In literature and engineering, the designed entity is not unique to the situation, but it is a creation of the particular writer or designer and perhaps unique to the creator.
◙ Clearly engineering is constrained in what it can create by the laws of science as everything is.
The difference between engineering and science centers around methodology. This summary is Copyright 1996 by Ron Graham. The differences between engineers and scientists fall into the following categories:
1 Purpose. The scientist wants to understand the way the universe (or some particular part of it) works; the engineer wants to design some mechanism or system to work according to known laws and applied to specific needs.
2 Routine. The scientist will develop a theory and test it -- when the field allows. In some fields the scientist will collect and analyze data and then develop a theory to describe the results. (This theory may lead to an equation or some other tool used by the engineer.) [See what happens, then describe it.] The engineer will instead collect information, draw up a plan, build and test a prototype, iterate out the twist, and go to production and marketing. [Build it, then see what happens.]
3 Goals.

After working with Kids & youth for since last five years, I have realized there is no readymade formula for change. It's a life long process and the change should come from inside. We cannot work on a issue like depression, indecision , violence without being willing to change ourselves and without knowing the root of it.
We devoted three years with Sapne ( A Social Learning Organization , we started for Kids & Youth in year 2011) working on various issues like child creativity, positive thinking ,children being affected by domestic violence, depression, indecision etc. We tried to help them through seminars, interactive sessions & campaigns. It was enough to bring a positive change in them for a time being but the change didn't last long. We were failing somewhere. Later, I realized the efforts are bringing us the name & fame but not the result we want. We were fooling ourselves of doing something nice but it was leading us nowhere.
I was deep worried inside. I wanted to find the real solution. I knew at that moment, Sapne with all it's ideas and philosophy is not going to make a long run change in anybody's life. It is just going to be a waste of time, energy & money. And then, at that time , I met Ramji Bhai. He is around 90 years old now and has worked with Gandhiji, Vinoba Bhave and many other alike personalities. He told me, Pratibha you don't have to work on solving any single issue/problem. There is no such thing like that. All you need to do is work with people. If they are changed , then they will do good in all fields of their life. You need to help them understand and change.
It was a turning point in my life. It was tough in the beginning to accept & agree with his words. But later I realised, he was right, we keep working to solve a problem desperately but never work on us. We believe, there are many problem in this World to be solved but we never give a thought to who is creating it all. We have a long list of solution for all the problems but very few for the person involved in it or creating it.
That day, another search began inside me. Now, I wanted to know, what makes us what we are today ? Why we behave in a way we do ? Why few kids get depressed out of all ? Why it is so hard to change after a point in life ? Is their a common rule that applies to all ? Lots of questions like this, kept coming in my mind.
It has been two years since then and the search is still on. I found most of the answers 🙂
Will be sharing the insights gradually.
Thank You,

The only thing constant in the fashion industry is change. Nothing stays the same and with a range of amazing trends, you may get confused which one to follow. Let us help you out and tempt you with some of the sexiest trends that you should definitely try this summer. Hold your breath, because we are about to unveil the top 5 summer trends you can't resist.
A staple for your wardrobe this summer, jumpsuits are available in different sizes, and for every body type. Jumpsuits are versatile and can be worn on any special occasion, or during a casual night out.
Head to toe denim looks
Denim is timeless, but adorning denim from head to toe is something unique that is trending this season. Denim shorts/ jeans with a denim shirt can be paired with your choice of boots or sandals to pull of the perfect denim look.
Dresses on shirts
We have seen people wearing shirts over t-shirts. It's more of a casual attire than a runway material. However, some designers this summer have picked up the idea and turned it into a trend. In this season, we have witnessed that on runways all types of dresses worn over all types of shirts. Be a bit different this season, and try a new look by wearing a matching or contrasting shirt on your dress.
Print overlap
One of the most loved trend this season is mixing and matching different prints in just one outfit. You heard it right. Using flowers, geometric patterns, and polka dots on just one outfit makes it uniquely appealing, and people are loving it.
To pull off a transparent look you have to be a bit bold, to be honest. But gals, this trend does make you look cool and provide adequate breathing space for your skin. You don't have to go completely transparent, you can simply adopt it as per your taste.


text: The Jesus You Can't Ignore by John MacArthur addresses people's perception of Jesus Christ. MacArthur makes a valid point that someone's view of God affects his or her outlook on everything. Unfortunately this point is made over and over, before the book even begins. The book has such a lengthy prologue and introduction that it felt like I had read a couple of chapters before I even got to the first one. Frankly, I got bored of rereading the same basic points reworded every four paragraphs. When I started into the first chapter, I had hopes that this would get better, and it did to an extent. However, I still could not get into the book and gave up. I have tried off and on to restart it for the past six months to no avail. While I think this book could be very good and probably is, I do not have the patience to get into it. From what I did read, it is a very well thought-out book, although a bit wordy. It is great for anyone who needs to reread passages to understand them because MacArthur took the work out of that and says the same basic thing repeatedly.

Council is responsible for the planning, planting and maintenance of trees within public parks, gardens, bushlands/indigenous corridors and reserves in the municipality. Council has a maintenance program which includes regular assessment of their health, safety, condition, pruning, removal and replanting requirements.
Report a tree maintenance issue
Whitehorse has over 350 parks with more than 350,000 trees. They range in species from formal exotic trees to indigenous native species depending on the park function and setting. Existing park trees are supplemented with additional trees via our annual planting program with the aim to increase the canopy coverage of each park, providing additional shade and habitat opportunities. All newly planted trees are maintained appropriately by Council through their establishment phase until they can maintain themselves as mature trees.
The park tree pruning program is a tree inspection & pruning program of variable frequencies depending on the potential hazards within the parkland.
All playgrounds and car parks within reserves are inspected and maintained on an annual program to ensure the risk to children, parents & property is minimised in the most frequently used assets within Councils parks and reserves.
Significant gardens throughout the municipality are inspected and maintained on a biennial program. Halliday Park, Civic Centre & surrounds, Box Hill Gardens and Kingsley Gardens are the most high profile open space areas throughout the municipality.
All other parks and reserves are inspected and maintained on a five year suburb based program. All park trees within indigenous corridors will be habitat pruned as required.
Council will respond to any request for reactive works to ensure satisfaction of residents in regard to tree issues within parklands.
All nearby residents will be made aware of upcoming works by signage within the parks and reserves and also letter drops to residents adjacent to the parkland.
The only instance where Council will require the removal of a park tree is where in the opinion of the Arborist, the tree is dead, dying or hazardous.

Preliminary Accident Reports
February 1999 Issue
Nov. 10, Mineral Wells, Texas / Piper PA-23-235 Apache
Approximately 10:30 CST, a PA-23-235 was landed without incident by a pilot-rated passenger when the owner/pilot collapsed while on a practice VOR approach to the Mineral Wells Airport. The owner died, but the two other occupants were uninjured. The right front seat passenger was a 600 hour pilot rated passenger with no twin experience. The passenger in the back seat contacted Mineral Wells Unicom and arranged for a multi-engine rated pilot to talk down the flying passenger. The plane landed without further incident. An autopsy and toxicology was performed on the owner and results are pending....

Odds are you've heard the terms "Bitcoin" and "cryptocurrency" thrown around pretty liberally over the course of the last year at the water cooler or from a passerby. These are two fairly recent buzzwords to emerge in non-tech circles. If you've had discussions about these topics, I would venture to guess that the word "blockchain" almost certainly has come up as well. The blockchain among other technologies is much more than a tool for distributing digital currency, it is a system for safe decentralized transactions of any kind. Hearing coworkers and like-minded friends talk constantly on the topic, I figured I should do some research of my own.
Blockchain is often described as a distributed ledger which lives on the machines of all those who participate in it. This distribution increases transparency in a sense and ensures the safety, both from manipulation and removal of these transactions. Blockchain works in a very linear way, where each "block" or transfer of data is built upon the last creating a chain. To ensure that these transactions are valid, multiple other participants verify or refute other transactions, when a block receives an approval percentage over 51 percent it is one step closer to being added to the chain. There is an additional layer of protection, to prevent malicious persons from altering this data. A special group of individuals, often called miners, that perform operations on each block to confirm it's authenticity. Once this is completed the block is finally added to the chain. This verification renders tampering within the blockchain relatively impossible with today's computers.
While transfers of currency are widely thought to be the most practical use for this technology, innovators and forward thinkers are constantly determining new ways for this tool to be put to use. With voting authenticity and firearm access being the hot button topics they are in today's climate, these are two of the most constructive applications of this tool. Blockchain could be used to flawlessly verify the chain of trade a firearm flows along. It could also be used to ensure that one's vote remains it's integrity thanks to the immutability of the blockchain.
One of the chief concerns with blockchain is the disconnect it faces between the physical and digital world. Once things are up and running on the digital end, data is essentially free flowing and safe from abuse. However, there is a always room for human error in getting it there. This highlights that blockchain is not a catch all solutions for data 100 percent data accuracy, as this reality may be impossible. Another worry surrounding the blockchain is speed, this can be better displayed with a graphic relating cryptocurrency transfer time over the blockchain versus that of Visa and PayPal.
Perhaps the most frightening aspect of the blockchain goes back to it's verification process. If any 52 percent of participants confirm an inaccurate transfer, it is deemed to be valid. This becomes an issue if a number above this threshold is working in unison. This issue could effectively compromise all of the data in the blockchain, making the technology rely on the fact that it is decentralized as a safety mechanism. However there are several fail-safes in place to make sure the chain is not broken.
With all of its potential, it is easy to see why blockchain is such a hot topic. With its inherent flaws it is easy to see why it has competition which seeks to build on and improve it. Two front runners in this arena are Tangle and Hashgraph.
The Tangle is similar to the blockchain in that it uses a confirmation system powered by other participants but rather than relying on "mining" as a second line of defense, the tangle relies on the number of confirmations a block has. This exponentially speeds up the process of transferring data, unfortunately this also creates a similar vulnerability to that of blockchain but at only 33 percent control.
Hashgraph is different from both of the other technologies in that information is passed from node to node in no particular order, and the most often occurring information is deemed to be valid, while anomalies are ruled out. Hashgraph also shares information about how accurate each participant is to increase the likelihood of authentic data being shared. This technology claims to be incredibly fast and secure but has yet to be used publicly for open inspection so there is a degree of speculation surrounding it.
These new applications have the power to reshape the way we do things, the rate at which they are adopted could increase dramatically in the coming years or it could come to a complete stop. Either way, it is best to be aware of these technologies so that you can be prepared for the changes they bring.

What kind of year was 2015?
- Deadliest U.S. mass shootings | 1984-2015
- Mass Shootings Happen More Than Once a Day in the US
- You think mass shootings are happening all the time? They are more frequent, data show
- Have there been 353 mass shootings this year — or just 4?
- 11 essential facts about guns and mass shootings in the United States
- 1,052 mass shootings in 1,066 days: this is what America's gun crisis looks like
- How Many Shootings Will It Take for America to Control Its Guns?
The much-too-easy access to guns hit a bit too close to home, and some news in the other direction would be a welcome change. (Over 2,000 doctors agree.)
And, in the spirit of anthropomorphizing temporality: 2016, what do you have in store for us? Not more of the same, I hope. Perhaps this headline is a nod toward things to come:
In anticipation of any and all forms of opposition, I humbly refer opponents and naysayers to this astute reminder.
New year, indeed.

*above photo taken of my Olean, NY backyard
Right this minute, snow is falling in earnest over the Northeast. A third snowstorm in just two weeks. I am not surprised by this weather, which is unfortunately common at this time of year in Western New York, but am more dismayed than anything else. Michael and I have been working rather steadily to complete the demolition phase of the Airstream, and are now to the point at which we need warmer weather in order to complete certain tasks. Now that we are down to the studs and have removed all but the wires from the interior, we have discovered several seams on the exterior are in need of resealing, and we need warm weather for that. Only yesterday afternoon during the last session of tearing out the old pink insulation Michael discovered rotting in the sub-floor so bad he could see daylight through it. Though Michael has numerous times been frustrated and filled with doubt about being able to repair our beloved Falcon, I remain steadfast. I know my husband is clever and creative. We will find our way through this.
While we wait for better weather to come around, we have an entire house of stuff to organize, clean, repair, and eventually empty. Both of us are in agreement that most of the furniture must go, and then we will find a storage unit for what little we want to keep. At some point we'll build a small cabin (like a tiny house) somewhere in New Hampshire, and then the few things we save can be used there. As we drove to where we have the Falcon parked, Michael and I were talking about how much fun it would be to build a tiny house like a hobbit hole in a hillside, and then we thought how fun it would be to make a few hobbit hole houses to make it seem like a village. Shortly after that, of course, I had to geek out and say how fabulous it would be to then build a tree house like Lothlorien. Having all of this on land in New HampSHIRE would be only too perfect. Just because I'm an adult doesn't mean I can't have my child-like moments of glee. I know I saw an article about someone else having built a hobbit hole tiny house, so why can't I?
Aside from the Airstream and the house, we have made a little time to get out to eat at our favorite restaurants. I thought I would share a few places we love here, since Olean is actually right on the expressway and those traveling in the region might appreciate knowing where the good food can be found. With that, I shall begin with one of the most well-loved restaurants in Olean and the surrounding area: The Beef and Barrel. This restaurant has been in business for decades, and can be found on North Union Street in Olean in the heart of the downtown. It's always busy, even during weeknights, and on weekends the line usually runs out the door. One of my favorite things about the Beef and Barrel is the fact that the family who owns the business always act as the hosts who seat guests, and happily chat with you while they guide you to your seat. They always remember their regulars and thoughtfully ask after your family. It's a nice way to be welcomed. Inside the restaurant the décor is pleasant and homey with lots of oak woodwork, a warm fireplace, and the tantalizing aroma of roasting beef fills the air.
This is a perfect place to bring family for dinner. They have a lovely kids' menu, and the atmosphere is very kid-friendly. If you stick with the beef on the menu, you won't go wrong. I've had fairly good chicken and biscuits there, and they do have other specials which are quite good, though I would avoid seafood. Soup is also fabulous, so try the vegetable beef or the French onion. Really, just go eat there for the experience. Beef is carved at stations located throughout the restaurant, and your mouth will water as you walk past on the way to your table. One of my favorite meals to get is a regional thing: beef on kimmelweck (called beef on "weck"). It's roast beef on a roll crusted with caraway seeds and soaked in juice from the pan. You really can't go wrong with this meal, but no matter what you order, get beef. Drinks here are always generous, and make sure you save room for dessert. I happen to love the mud pie, but lots of people swear by the apple which can be topped with locally famous Cuba sharp cheddar cheese. All the bread is made scratch in the kitchen, as are the desserts. Service at the Beef is also excellent. I have never had a bad experience with any server over the 30 years I have been eating at this establishment. That's saying something amazing. This place is a comfort food love fest: http://www.beefnbarrel.com/.
Another of our favorite places is Sprague's Maple Farm in Portville, NY. It's off the beaten path, but again, always busy. If you need a fun trip which can become an afternoon of family time that will keep everyone happy, go to Sprague's. Early spring is the time of year when Sprague's has their maple production in full swing because the sap is running and the syrup is boiling. If you care to take the tour up into the woods behind the restaurant, you can walk the path to the sugarhouse where they talk about how the syrup is made. You can also stop off at the quail den alongside the trail, where the family who owns the business raises quail they release into the wild to help repopulate the region. For the kids, a fun play area also stands alongside the trail.
Inside the restaurant is a wonderland of delightful animals you can spend the entire time you're in the dining room trying to find. A hooting owl hangs in the rafters, geese fly overhead the antler chandeliers, bears climb the roof of the server shack and have dinner at one of the tables. Keep your eyes open for the woodpecker who pecks at the wall, and the raccoon who will pop his head up out of a bucket (but this guy won't steal your meal like the bandits which can be found on my "disclosure" page). It's a lovely experience for anyone, and the food is great for anyone who loves breakfast all day, is willing to try the fabulous farm-raised turkey in any of several recipes, or test one of their maple-inspired creations (love their maple dressing on salad—yum). Once again, this is comfort food, and consistently delicious meals like their Thanksgiving-style plate or the Main Line are worth the drive. After dinner, you can stop at their country style gift shop full of unique items. More than once I've gone there for birthday presents because they have lovely gifts you can't find anywhere else. For more information about Sprague's, visit their website: https://spraguesmaplefarms.com/.
One of the foods we really missed out West was pizza. When you live in New York, pizza is almost a food group. While my kids were growing up, we actually had a night of the week dedicated to eating pizza for dinner. It's cheap and cheesy, and in New York we take pizza seriously. I can promise you that if you go to the Big Apple, pizza is one of the foods you absolutely must try. It really is better than anywhere else. Here in Olean, Michael and I have two favorite places to get pizza: Napoli and Renna's. First, let me say that Renna's is a classic pizza place here in Olean, a standard of NY style pizza which calls to people from miles around. Many who grew up in the Olean area and moved elsewhere will return just for this pizza. It's not quite the same as it was when I was a kid since the original owners sold the business, but it's still close. The new owners seem to have gotten the recipes from the original owners, so the pizza still has that familiar taste. I know people who also swear by the subs here, but pizza is where it's at for me. If you eat here, go to the Olean Mall location, which is the original restaurant and easy to find if you come from the expressway and drive south on North Union Street toward the mall.
I am a fairly recent convert to eating Napoli pizza because my hubby likes it. Sometimes Napoli is inconsistent about the quality of pies coming out of the kitchen, and the delivery is usually slow, but it is all homemade and they use quality ingredients. If the owner, Tony, is in the kitchen and you dine in, make sure you order some pasta. Tony makes fabulous pasta. If you go to Napoli on Friday night, they usually have music in house, and in warmer weather they have Wednesday night music, too. On good weather nights, the music is usually outside on the patio, and you can enjoy a meal outdoors. I happen to know most of the musicians who play there, and I can say the music will rock. Napoli is a bit out of the way for those just passing through, but if you're staying in town it's worth a visit: http://www.napolipizzaoleanny.com/.
A few other places worth a try are Lakeview Chinese, located near Walmart on West State Street, and which has Chinese good enough that I compare all other Chinese I eat to this food. Great service, food prepared quickly, fair prices: http://us.chinesemenu.com/us/olean-ny-14760/lake-view-chinese-restaurant/photos.html. Union Tea Cafe is a new spot on North Union Street, but it has wowed everyone who drops by for a cup. The tea is truly unique, the food is delicious, and the décor is divine. Even if you don't drink tea, this is a special place which elevates tea beyond what you get anywhere else. They have so many flavors that anyone can find something to love, the food is scratch-baked, and they even have a sniffing bar so you can breathe in the aroma of the tea before you buy it: http://www.unionteacafe.com/. When I want a sub, my favorite place is On the Side sub shop. It's a little pricey for just a sandwich, but it's the best spot for subs in town. For as long as I can remember, I have been eating their subs with that little something extra in the sandwich, that little bit of magic to send it over the top. This place is also on North Union Street: http://www.onthesidesubs.com/.
If you're looking for fun ways to spend your time in Olean, we have a few tips for that as well. This region is rich with musicians who are incredibly talented, and you can find a variety of different programs to link you with a wide array of styles. St. Bonaventure University has quite a vast number of performers who come through the region to perform at the Quick Arts Center, and is also where the Friends of Good Music hosts several classical performances over their season. If you like symphony orchestra music, Southern Tier Symphony is a group of seriously skilled musicians from the region who get together for a few practice sessions and bang out some incredibly beautiful scores. They usually play a few times a year and are worth the price of a ticket. Olean Community Theater often puts on award-winning shows several times a year, and tickets vary in price depending on the show. If you're more of the rock 'n' roll type of person, you can hit up a few of the area bars on the weekends for music, like Union Whiskey (a new bar and grill on North Union), Talty's (which is an Irish pub that also has food), or the Parkwood (an Olean standard which honors the local sports scene). Thursdays in the summer you can find free music of all kinds at Lincoln Park in the center of town on the corner of State and Union, and sometimes Beat City in Allegany, NY hosts jam sessions for local musicians who come play outside on the sidewalk. And this is only the tip of the iceberg. Really, Olean is full of lots of music, from barbershop to modern rock.
For those who enjoy more physical activity for fun, you can go bowling all year at Good Times on East State Street, or in warmer weather you can go mini golfing, play volleyball on their sand courts, or take part in one of their many events and competitions. Rock City is a famous tourist spot which features a tour of natural rock formations and a gift shop, or you can save a little cash if you have a big group and go see Thunder Rocks at Allegany State Park, which is only about 40 minutes away off I-86. At Allegany State Park you can also swim at Red House Lake in summer, rent a boat (or bring your own), ride your bike on the paved trails, or hike on the many foot trails. Lots of people now find plenty to do at the Seneca Allegany Casino in nearby Salamanca, with plenty of shows to see and a buffet to stuff yourself, too. Just know that smoking is allowed, and the smoke gets fairly heavy if that's an issue for you. In the summer, make time for ice cream at either Twist 'n' Shake on Constitution Ave. or HiHo on East State. Both places are local favorites, and have outdoor seating to enjoy your cone or sundae, and both also serve other food. I prefer Twist 'n' Shake if I need to eat a meal, as they have delectable salads and wraps, one of the best burgers in town, and they are located right on the Allegany River Trail (for which you can rent a bike if you wish).
In winter, Ellicottville is a great place to go skiing and enjoy the shops in the quaint downtown. They also happen to have several great spots to eat a good meal, like EBC (Ellicottville Brewing Company), The Gin Mill, or Dina's. You can find all these places in the downtown of E-ville, but I think my favorite is Watson's candy shop. Hello, chocolate. 🙂 If you go downtown, stop by Kazoo II or take a moment to look around in any of the shops selling art and you will be pleased to see what's available. If you visit during warmer months, you can enjoy a trip to the Sky High Adventure Park, or if going in fall I recommend waiting until the Fall Fest, where you can ride the ski lift to the mountaintop and enjoy a hot cup of cider while you walk the trails. Downtown they usually have a festival of booths selling art, a carnival, and food vendors. Check out the website for Ellicottville to plan a trip there: http://www.ellicottvilleny.com/.
I almost forgot to mention that the Olean Recreation Center has cheap ice skating during winter, and you can go sledding for free in Allegany behind the Bartlett House Golf Club. And lest I get tossed off the Union Street bridge, let me also say we have an Atlantic 10 basketball team at St. Bonaventure, and Reilly Center gets rowdy when the team plays in town. You can visit St. Bonaventure's website to find out more about buying tickets to watch a lively game: http://gobonnies.sbu.edu/sports/m-baskbl/2017-18/schedule. They're having a great season this year! For baseball fans, see the Oilers play at Bradner Stadium, where Olean also celebrates July 4th with fireworks. Like I said, there's always something to do if you need some fun. Stop for a meal, a weekend, or an overnight and enjoy yourself. That just about wraps up the highlights of things to do and places to eat in or around Olean, NY. Obviously my Olean friends may have plenty to add to this list, and may argue with me about the best pizza, but that's why we have variety. Either way, you can find plenty to keep you busy if you come when the weather isn't so frightful, but even in winter we have fun around that, too. After all, when half the year is spent locked in cold weather, you have to find ways to get out and have fun. So get out and have fun!
As always, please feel free to comment and share. Do be thoughtful of the opinions of others when commenting. Also, I promise to share a few places to hike in the Olean region in a future post while we're in our hometown, though if we work on the Airstream I'll post about that first. Until then, my darlings….

This book is so different from everything I have ever read. I was actually kind of shocked by that. I loved every page of it though! This is my first T.J. Klune book and it most certainly will not be the last. I just have to figure out which one of his books to read next. If they are all this amazing and awesome I am in trouble.
Gus is an interesting fella. He has his daily routine that he follows everyday, every week, every month, and has done so for all of his life. He's okay with his okay life. He's okay with his okay job. He's okay with his okay routine. Everything is okay until one day it no longer is. That's the day when he meets Casey and decides he wants to be normal, not abnormal, not weird, and most certainly not strange. Gus being Gus does the only thing there is to do he calls Pacific Northwest Cable to buy the internet. The internet can tell him How To Be a Normal Person.
I laughed throughout this book. Gus and his view of the world and how he handles the numerous new situations in his life is great. Casey the asexual stoner hipster was an amazing match for Gus. They get each other. Not many people get Gus. I'm pretty sure Gus doesn't get Gus. Casey gets Gus. The We Three Queens and Lottie were the best possible group of friends to go along with this stoner romantic comedy of books. This book is filled with humor, wit, awkward moments, caring hugs, sweet kisses, and well played alliterations. I am so glad I finally got around to reading it.

The riches of God's glory are for us from now unto New Jerusalem. The New Testament also presents other aspects of God's riches, for today and for New Jerusalem.
Romans 2:4 speaks of "the riches of His kindness and forbearance and long-suffering" which leads us to repentance. Via repentance we receive Christ as our eternal life, which puts us on the way to New Jerusalem.
Second Corinthians 8:9, "the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, for your sakes He became poor in order that you, because of His poverty, might become rich." He had to become poor, lowly, to live a live of suffering culminating with His death on the cross. Through His death and resurrection we are rich in Him.
In Him "we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of offenses, according to the riches of His grace" (Eph. 1:7). Forgiveness is one of the riches we receive through His poverty and is according to the riches of His grace.
Another contributor to our repentance, forgiveness, and eternal life is "God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, made us alive together with Christ…" (Eph. 2:4-5). We are not qualified, but God is rich in mercy, for us to receive now and to display in New Jerusalem.
All these aspects of God's riches are so "That He might display in the ages to come the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus" (Eph. 2:7). God's riches in kindness, mercy, and grace are so that He can work Himself into us and be expressed through us in the coming age and in New Jerusalem.
To make us aware of all this, grace was given to announce "the unsearchable riches of Christ as the gospel" (Eph. 3:8). God is not only rich but surpassingly and unsearchably rich. These riches require the entirety of New Jerusalem and of eternity for their display.

This race now seems a rather distant memory. It was warm and sunny which we hoped was good preparation for the summer.having slept in the van we were there bright and early to erect display boards and flags.
I had persuaded Bob to do the full tour as prep for his GRP but I felt under no pressure as Nicky and Mary are much faster than me. I just needed to complete to keep the Grand Slam alive. I started more conservatively than often and enjoyed the first few miles.
As we headed up onto the moor everyone was starting to feel the heat. I love the CP on Druids Stone and managed to navigate David and I too it quite well.
David then shot off back down to the Edale valley faster than me but I was ahead of Andy (for a short while). Determined to eat and drink today I had my head down and missed the turn after the railway bridge. Luckily I only went about a km and on flat tarmac before I realised my error and retraced my steps.
I was furious to find I had been overtaken by about 10 people, including Andy, and so stomped up Lose Hill like someone possessed. The next section passed quickly and I was soon running down the old rail track and over the bridge at Bamford Mill.
The clough and 'escalator' were closed to us again but perhaps the new route is better as it keeps us off the tarmac for longer. My tired legs struggled to run along Stanage Edge despite an audience of climbers, walkers and tourists. I arrived at top Burbage fairly washed out. A dodgy stomach all morning had worried me as UU warned Preston of nasty bugs in our water. Please no, I need to be fit this month. Peter was sat at the CP even an even worse state and we ran/jogged together down the big valley track. I recovered a bit in the woods and pulled ahead before catching Andy, again, in the fields en route to the Hathersage CP. The section to Abney seemed to take an age but at least there was some shade in the woods. My time was leaking away badly and by the top of the lane I knew it would be a PW. A few tapes left from a fell race confused me and wasted a little more time. I finished in a disappointing 7hrs 18 (a PW by about 50 mins) but then found that almost everyone except Nigel A had also suffered.
To only be half an hour or so behind Nicky was perhaps not so bad and I did manage 1st FV50 (until next year when Nicky moves up an age I think). A long recovery sat in the field eating, drinking, prize giving, distributing RF neckwear rewards and chatting rounded off the day nicely. I was at our committee meeting when Bob finished so missed this sadly. He too had ended up with a longer day than anticipated.

Can there be any question now that misbegotten "stand your ground" laws can provide a legal cover for murder?
Watching the distressing ABC News interview with one of the George Zimmerman jurors – the only non-white juror and the only one who began deliberations believing Zimmerman guilty of second-degree murder – it's hard to come to any other conclusion.
"Some people have said George Zimmerman got away with murder," ABC's Robin Roberts began. "How do you respond to that?"
"George Zimmerman got away with murder," replied the 36-year-old juror, identified only as Maddy. "But you can't get away from God. At the end of the day….the law couldn't prove it. We just have to believe in the Lord that if he has to pay, he will pay."
As a nonbeliever, I take little comfort in her theory that Zimmerman will meet his justice in the next world.
It's reassuring, however, that President Obama, Atty. Gen. Eric Holder and even Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain have tried to launch a national conversation about "stand your ground" laws that could put at least some pressure on the 30 states that have adopted them. If states won't fix the laws, maybe juries will reclaim some power.
Anytime the National Rifle Assn. is the main backer of legislation, as it has been on this issue, you can be sure the outcome is aimed at more gunplay, not less.
Of course, there are times when homicide is a justifiable response to threat of great bodily harm or death. But these laws encourage citizens to engineer aggressive, armed confrontations, when they should be encouraged to do all in their power to walk away. They enable the kind of tragedy that Zimmerman inflicted the night he decided that a teenager on his way home from a store looked suspicious and needed to be followed.
Maddy told ABC News that had she followed her heart, she would have held out for a guilty verdict.
"I was the juror that was gonna give them a hung jury," she said. "I fought to the end."
I wish she had held out, but I can't blame her for following the letter of the law, and not quite grasping how much power she really possessed.
She said the reaction to the verdict in the days following the trial overwhelmed her.
"I literally fell on my knees and I broke down, my husband was holding me, and I was screaming and crying, and I kept saying to myself, I feel like I killed him…" She said she has had trouble sleeping and eating. "I feel that I was forcibly included in Trayvon Martin's death," she told ABC.
On Friday at a conference of the National Urban League in Philadelphia, Martin's mother, Sabryna Fulton, urged the audience to work against "stand your ground" legislation, describing it as "a law that has prevented the person who shot and killed my son to be held accountable, and to pay for this awful crime."
It's worth remembering that if Zimmerman had shot Martin before Florida passed its "stand your ground" law in 2005, the jury would have been instructed that the shooter "cannot justify his use of force likely to cause death or great bodily harm if by retreating he could have avoided the need to use that force."
That might have given Maddy all the moral ammunition she needed.

The Poor: Let Them Live Elsewhere
The developers of Washington, D.C.'s Watergate apartment complex now propose to build three condominium high-rise buildings with a total of 720 units on the waterfront of the Occoquan River. According to an editorial in today's Manassas Journal Messenger, the location would be well served by transportation infrastructure.
Considering the county's problems with sprawl, our leaders need to seriously consider building up, instead of building out. The only places to build up, are near transportation hubs. This is such a place.
... When it comes to infrastructure, this property is not only served by Virginia Railway Express, HOV and the I-95/Va. 123 interchange, it is practically on top of a large commuter lot that we pay for, yet no one uses. Plus, Fort Belvoir, and yes, Woodbridge are next in line for Metro expansion. Making the correct decisions when it comes to developing along U.S. 1 is key to Metro's migration south. If the county worked with the developer, there's a good chance it could come away with some lucrative transportation concessions.
It goes without saying that the project faces opposition. Supervisor Corey Stewart, R-Occoquan, fears an influx of "low income" residents. The county, he says, should focus on adding office space and employment centers. With attitudes like that, no wonder housing is so unaffordable in Northern Virginia, and no wonder developers are moving deeper into Virginia's rural hinterlands to find developable land--and more congenial local governments--to build houses that people can afford. If the ensuing long-range commutes add to gridlock on I-95, that's the state's problem, right? Mr. Stewart can always blame the stingey politicians in Richmond for refusing to cough up more bucks to widen more miles of Interstate.
Fortunately, there are indications that other supervisors -- including Chairman Sean Connaughton, back from the campaign trail after his unsuccessful bid for the GOP nomination for lieutenant governor -- see the value of permitting denser, more compact development in areas well served by existing infrastructure.
