[[File:Makinochild.jpg|thumb|276px]In a current One Piece chapter coverpage we all saw that Makino is holding a baby. I am sure that the first question that came to everyone's mind was "Whoes baby is that?" abd i am sure that thier first guess is "Ace?". but not everyone thinks alike so everyone got different opinions and i would like to hear them.
there are some Questions that pops up im my mind when i see this picture:
#Whoes baby is that? #
- Is it Ace's and she is just raising him/her?
- Is he or she?
- Does Makino has boyfriend or got married and if yes then who is that lucky man?
- Is it shanks? every great pirate left their wife to achive their dreams like roger and dragon.
These are some questions that bugs me and i think that some of then bugs you too. so please comment your opinions tobring up a conclution of this confusion.

Recorded Seminar: Data Privacy Regulation in Asia – A Practical Way Forward to Compliance
Hogan Lovells data protection lawyers Mark Parsons and Eugene Low recently hosted in-person seminars at Hogan Lovells' offices in Hong Kong to take stock of where Asia is in terms of data privacy regulation, and to help chart a roadmap to compliance. The focus of these discussions was on identifying "hot spots" for businesses operating across the region and pointing to practical measures and points of prioritisation. The discussions also considered steps to be taken to prepare for and react to data breach events, with a seasoned view of regulatory attitudes and approaches to enforcement and remediation.

Look closely at the HEART logo and what do you see? Norwich Castle. This article covers a little of the history of the man who "saved" it.
Samuel Bignold was Mayor of Norwich in 1833 (and again in 1848, 1853 and 1872) and it was at this time the local authorities were considering knocking down the Castle. Instead of demolition, he suggested restoration and so we have the building we see today. This is just one example of the influence Samuel Bignold had on the city.
After his marriage to Elizabeth Jex Atkins in 1815 they lived at Catton Old Hall. In 1822 they moved to Surrey Street where they raised 13 children. Samuel's father had been a churchwarden at St Peter Mancroft and he attended worship there.
Samuel was the third son of Thomas Bignold, founder of Norwich Union. Whereas his father could be difficult and awkward, Samuel was welcoming and easy going. He succeeded his father as Secretary of Norwich Union in 1818 and was in charge of the company for almost 60 years. He died, in service, in 1875. Very much a family man he regarded the Norwich Union and all its employees as his extended family and took his duties as its head very seriously.
Samuel supported the arts and Robert Ladbrooke was one of the Norwich School artists appointed to teach drawing to his children. Samuel also supported John Sell Cotman and, following Samuel's recommendation to the King's College School, London, Cotman was appointed professor of drawing there in 1833.
Samuel was a political animal and supported the Conservative (Tory) party. His great friend was Arthur Wellesley, 2nd Duke of Wellington, who was Member of Parliament for Norwich 1837-1852. Samuel himself was elected in 1854 but he lost the seat in 1857 to Samuel Morton Peto.
Samuel Bignold not only responded to the political and artistic needs of the city. In 1833 he was involved with the establishment of the Norwich Yarn Company. At a time of great unemployment in the city the company employed 300 men and 200 children. The wage bill was £200 a week. The following year during a public meeting he suggested promoting the provision of a railway link from London to Norwich. It wasn't until 1849 that the completed line was opened but on November 7th Samuel was on the first train and at the celebrations that followed at St Andrew's Hall and the Assembly Rooms.
In 1853 he attended the inaugural meeting of the Jenny Lind Hospital as its President. The following year he laid the foundation stone of the Free Library on Guildhall Hill, the first public library in Britain.
Samuel was involved with the Norwich School of Art, St Peter Mancroft church, Norwich Castle, St James' Mill, local politics, Norwich City Water Works Company, Jenny Lind Hospital and Norwich Free Library. Just reading this list it comes as no surprise to learn he was knighted by Queen Victoria in 1854.
He died in 1875 and shops and offices throughout the city were closed as a mark of respect. The Norfolk Herald in its tribute to him said "There was never, we will venture to say, a good and useful work to be done in Norwich, in which he was not only willing but ready and anxious to take a share, to bear a citizen's part".
He would be at the heart of HEART were he alive today: steering, advising and encouraging us all to take our part.

Wisconsin has been addressing equity in birth outcomes for more than 10 years and joined the regional IM CoIIN in 2013. In 2014, IM CoIIN transitioned to a national initiative using six key strategies to improve infant mortality rates and reduce disparities: pre- and early-term birth, pre and interconception care, risk appropriate perinatal care, safe sleep, smoking cessation, and social determinants of health. The IM CoIIN provided Wisconsin an opportunity to re-energize its work and message.
Developing new, simplified factsheets gave the Wisconsin team a new reason to reach out to state leaders and get their support. The factsheets have also helped the team to reach out to new stakeholders and disseminate information from the pregnancy risk assessment monitoring system (PRAMS), which collects valuable information that isn't available elsewhere about mother's perceptions and experiences before, during and shortly after pregnancy.
"The work is so multifaceted. I think these factsheets help make it concrete," says Onheiber. "We definitely wanted to keep it succinct and highlight one topic, but work is needed in all areas to make a difference on equity."

A fresh repave of Michigan International Speedway in 2012 set the stage for Marcos Ambrose to shatter the old track record by nearly nine MPH. His lap of 203.241 MPH in June of 2012 put Michigan International Raceway solidly on top of this list.

The top 38 drivers in that race all posted speeds higher than previous number one Texas Motor Speedway's record lap of 196.235.

Michigan's new smooth surface makes it the king of speed.

Daytona International Speedway is another race track where teams are required to use restrictor plates. The official track record is again held by Bill Elliott who posted a 210.364 MPH lap to sit on the pole for the 1987 Daytona 500.

Since 2000 the fastest qualifying lap belongs to Danica Patrick who drove the new Gen 6 car to the Daytona 500 pole at 196.434 MPH.

Texas Motor Speedway was repaved during the 2006 season providing an entirely different racing surface for the drivers when they returned during The Chase for the Cup. Brian Vickers took advantage of the smooth surface and posted a 196.235 MPH lap to take the pole. This vaulted Texas into first place as the fastest race track on the modern Sprint Cup schedule.

Until 2006 Atlanta Motor Speedway had held the title of NASCAR's fastest speedway since it was reconfigured during the 1997 season. However, it must now settle for third on the list with the quickest qualifying lap posted here since 2000 belonging to Ryan Newman at 194.690 MPH. Newman has held this track record since 2005.

In 2012 Atlanta feel another spot to third on the overall list when Carl Edwards took the pole for the 2012 Daytona 500.

In 2005 Elliott Sadler set the Charlotte Motor Speedway track record. Sadler clocked in with a 193.216 MPH lap to vault Charlotte Motor Speedway up to the fourth spot on this list. Speeds jumped nearly five MPH from the previous year as a result of the track being smoothed and repaved.

When people think of fast NASCAR race tracks Talladega Superspeedway usually comes to mind first. Talladega holds the all-time NASCAR track record as Bill Elliott sat on the pole with an incredible 212.809 MPH lap in 1987. However, since NASCAR mandated restrictor plate use at Talladega and Daytona in 1988 speeds have been reduced.

Since 2000 the fastest qualifying lap at Talladega was David Gilliland's 191.712 MPH lap from 2006.

After a 2012 repave job Kasey Kahne lead a qualifying field that blistered the old track record and put Kansas on this list. Kahne laid down a 191.360 MPH to insert Kansas into the list and bump Indianapolis Motor Speedway off of the list.

Las Vegas Motor Speedway saw it's track record shattered by almost ten miles per hour in 2007. Kasey Kahne put his Dodge on the pole with a 184.855 MPH lap which laid waste to Kahne's own previous track record of 174.904 MPH.

Kyle Busch then edged that record up to 185.995 in 2009. This closed the gap on 9th place Indianapolis but didn't change Vegas' position on this list.

In 2011 Matt Kenseth added nearly three miles per hour to the track record with his 188.884 MPH qualifying lap. This caused Vegas to jump up to seventh on this list.

Kasey Kahne reclaimed the track record in 2012 when he posted a 190.456 MPH lap during qualifying but Las Vegas remained seventh on the overall list.

Auto Club Speedway, formerly known as California Speedway, is similar to Michigan Speedway but doesn't have quite as much banking in the turns. 14 degrees versus Michigan's 18 degrees. This difference in banking accounts for the six mile per hour difference in track records.

Kyle Busch is the track record holder here. Kyle ran this 188.245 MPH lap in qualifying for the February 2005 Auto Club 500.

Jimmie Johnson holds the track record in Chicagoland with his 2005 lap of 188.147 MPH. Again comparing this race track to Michigan Speedway. Chicagoland and Michigan have the same amount of banking and both tracks are 'D' shaped ovals. However, Michigan is a two-mile race track while Chicagoland is just 1.5 miles around. This difference accounts for the roughly six mile per hour difference in speeds.


text: As if the Arena Football League didn't have enough problems, what with suspending its season next year, now one of its television broadcast partners has filed suit against it alleging the league owes over $1 million dollars in advertising costs. NBC filed suit in New York State Supreme Court claiming that the AFL owes it $$1,597,320 in revenue sharing from advertising from the 2006 season. It's probably a pretty fair bet that the league doesn't have the money to pay if it truly is owed.

CALGARY, Alberta (Reuters) - WestJet Airlines Ltd, Canada's No. 2 carrier, said on Tuesday that passenger levels raced higher in March, with customers flocking to the airline as pressure from the economic downturn eased.
WestJet said its March load factor, a measure of how full its flights to Canada, the United States and elsewhere were during the month, rose 1.9 percentage points from March 2009 to 83.8 percent, despite a big rise in its capacity.
The Calgary-based airline said it flew 94,000 more passengers last month compared with the year-earlier period, as the economy strengthened.
The carrier's capacity, measured in available seat miles, rose 7.4 percent to 1.63 billion as it increased space to southern vacation destinations.
However that rise was outmatched by an increase in customers, measured in revenue passenger miles, which rose 10 percent to 1.37 billion from 1.25 billion in March 2009.
"WestJet's increased capacity ... (was) deployed into southern markets and benefited from WestJet's strong brand and strengthening sales channels," Gregg Saretsky, WestJet's recently appointed chief executive, said in a statement.
"We continue to draw from our entire route network to fill our south-bound aircraft with a healthy mix of WestJet and WestJet Vacations guests," Saretsky said.
The company said the rise in traffic was encouraging but it continues to expect a decline in revenue per available seat mile of up to 3 percent for the first quarter of the year.
Air Canada is expected to release its March load data later on Tuesday.
WestJet shares were off 11 Canadian cents, or 0.8 percent, at C$13.43 by midmorning on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

NPS subscribers will now have more choice as two new firms – DSP BlackRock and Birla Sun Life are likely to join the league.
While DSP BlackRock was managing NPS a few years back, Birla Sun Life is the new entrant in the pension fund management industry. DSP BlackRock had discontinued NPS reportedly citing the low management fee structure.
Currently, seven pension fund managers - SBI, UTI, LIC, Kotak Mahindra, Reliance Capital, ICICI Prudential and HDFC are managing NPS.
Earlier in September, PFRDA has invited bids from the pension fund managers in which the regulator has increased the fund management fee from 0.01% to 0.1% or 10 basis points. Unlike previous auctions in which all pension fund managers had to accept the lowest bid, the managers can now charge independently but it has to be within 10 basis points of AUM.
According to media reports, both DSP BlackRock and ICICI Prudential have bid to charge the highest management fee of 0.1%. On the other hand, LIC and SBI made the lowest bid of 7 basis points. Similarly, other pension fund managers who have submitted their bids are UTI Retirement (0.8%), Reliance Capital (0.0849%), Kotak Mahindra (0.0895%), HDFC Pension Management (0.099%), Birla Sun Life Pension Management at (0.099%).
PFRDA has mandated a net worth of Rs. 25 crore for the pension fund managers.
The pension fund managers manage over Rs. 1.50 lakh crore under NPS as on October 2016, most of which is accounted by the contribution from government employees.

European Central Bank Loans
December 21, 2011 by staff
European Central Bank Loans, The euro fell against most of its major peers amid concern that European Central Bank measures to support its banking sector won't be enough to arrest region's worsening sovereign-debt crisis.
The 17-nation currency erased an earlier advance as the ECB said it had awarded 489 billion euros ($637 billion) in 1,134- day loans to banks, more than the 293 billion euros forecast by economists, as investors bet the euro-region debt crisis is far from done. The euro-area economy will probably fail to grow next year after expanding 1.6 percent in 2011, while the U.S. likely will accelerate to 2.1 percent from 1.8 percent, according to Bloomberg surveys of economists.
"We're starting to see more headwinds start up for the euro," said Brian Kim, a currency strategist in Stamford, Connecticut, at Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc. "Whether it's been the latest summit hasn't worked, whether it's been the growth picture in Europe versus the U.S., people are finally noticing that it's lagging."
The euro fell 0.3 percent to $1.3047 as of 10:59 a.m. New York time, after climbing as much as 0.9 percent after the ECB announcement. Europe's shared currency declined 0.2 percent to 101.68 yen. The dollar weakened 0.1 percent to 77.96 yen.

Israeli Religion Bill Dividing Jews U.S. Reform, Conservative Jews Fighting Bid By Orthodox To Control Religious Law
Tue., Oct. 28, 1997
A contingent of Reform and Conservative Jews, mostly from the United States, lobbied the Knesset on Monday against legislation that would deny them legal recognition in Israel. A top government official accused them of trying to bring down the government.
With support from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's legislature is preparing to pass a bill that will give Orthodox Jews a monopoly on religious matters in Israel.
The issue is political dynamite in Israel and has put Netanyahu's government on a collision course with American Jewry, which is dominated by Reform and Conservative movements. American Jews are among the most generous donors to Israel and provide crucial political backing in Washington.
"I'm a second-class Jew in the Jewish state," Rabbi Gerald Weider of New York City said as he and some 20 other Reform leaders wandered the Knesset halls, lobbying against a plan that effectively denies the non-Orthodox a place on councils that oversee religious services.
The legislation is to be presented today by religious parties in Netanyahu's coalition government. Another bill opposed by Reform Jews, making non-Orthodox conversions illegitimate, is pending.
Orthodox religious parties control a third of Netanyahu's coalition and have vowed to topple the government unless the prime minister follows through on a promise to pass the legislation.
It is the climax of a longstanding dispute between the Orthodox stream of Judaism, which adheres to a rigid interpretation of Jewish law, and the more liberal Conservative and Reform movements, which want to adjust Judaism to modernity - allowing women rabbis, for example.
These movements have been waging a court battle to force the state to grant them greater recognition.
American Jewish leaders - and many Israelis - are warning that passage of the bill would bring about a historic split between Israel and the Jewish diaspora.
Rabbi Ammiel Hirsch, head of the Reform Zionist Association in New York, warned of "a catastrophic rift in the Jewish people."
Netanyahu - who lived much of his life in the United States and has close ties to the U.S. Jewish community - appears sensitive to the dangers. In July, he set up a committee headed by Finance Minister Yaacov Neeman bringing leaders from all the streams together in search of a compromise.
After arriving in Israel on Sunday, the American contingent met with Netanyahu, who asked them to allow time for Neeman's committee to reach a compromise. Neeman reportedly is proposing the establishment of a "conversion institute," where all the movements would work together but the Orthodox would have effective veto power.
On Monday, however, the leaders of the Reform movement announced they were rejecting the compromise and would forge ahead with several Israeli Supreme Court conversion cases.

sun glasses e of the lenses, the adhesive from which leaves a small patch where the anti-fog doesn't work which is a shame but could probably be sorted out with some kind of glasses cleaning fluid but I haven't tried. Overall pretty impressive especially for the price! I have always bought expensive sunglasse Montenegro electronics shop online baby ralph lauren g fastener, which is made of a soft and silky material. The sunglasses give a slightly greyish tint to whatever I'm looking at. The very funky looking and sporty design aesthetic of these sunglasses makes them great for biking and hiking, running, water sports including kayaking and windsurfing, skiing and snowboarding, tennis, and so on and so forth. There were no marks, scratches or scuffs on the product which I received, either on the frame or the lenses. HighlMadrid ray ban glasses price kitesurf online shop .
use for wearing dark sunglasses inside and boy are these glasses dark. I couldn't see much outside let alone in. I gave them to my 21 year old son who appeared delighted, announcing that he looked just like Bob Dylan on the cover of Infidels. I thought he also looked like a bee.
I think the seller forgot to say that the size is for a kid, I look like a j chanel espadrilles to Greece,
Terrible protection, very minimal difference between being on or off your eyes
Fair product, I have bought similarly priced items that look really stylish and you cant tell the difference between the expensive price tag and those, these are a bit let down by the silver motif on the arm of the specs, but , as they are in my favourite colour PURPLE, I shall definitely be wearing them.
Nice purple frames but they do not have purple lenses which is the only reason I brought them...
I thought they would be completely black as I ordered Matt Black but they have a white rim a sunglasses mens ue.
Despite many negative reviews, I found all were picky and found none of the faults mentioned. However, I did find one major fault. This item takes very good still pictures, great quality, but when it come to video, I just can't get it to take any. Given the price and that I ignored the negative reviews it's my own fault I suppose. What can.

Truman Capote
On this date in 1924, Truman Capote was born Truman Streckfus Persons in New Orleans, La. His mother, Lillie Mae Faulks, was only 17 when he was born and married to a "ne'er do well" and salesman, Arch Persons, his father. As a result, his childhood was turbulent. He was sent to live with his unmarried adult cousins in Monroeville, Ala., where he lived permanently for a time and visited regularly throughout his life. In Monroeville, he met his lifelong friend, Nelle Harper Lee, author of "To Kill a Mockingbird." When Capote was 11, he moved to New York City with his mother and her second husband, Joe Capote, who adopted Truman. The family lived in style on Park Avenue until it was discovered that Joe was embezzling from his company. Ashamed of her husband's crime and distraught over losing her lavish lifestyle, his mother killed herself when Capote was 30.
Capote had been interested in writing from an early age, and was encouraged by the cousins who raised him and by a high school English teacher. While he was in high school, he worked as a copyboy at The New Yorker, where he began to establish himself as a personality among a glittering social circle of writers, artists, and influential, upper-crust types. He began writing seriously and published several pieces in Harper's Bazaar and Mademoiselle Magazine. In 1948, he published his first book, the autobiographical work, "Other Voices, Other Rooms." He became a literary star, penning 17 books and collections of short stories in his lifetime, including the famous novella "Breakfast at Tiffany's" (1958) and the true crime non-fiction book "In Cold Blood" (1966), both of which were later turned into movies. He was very devoted to his social life, which included some of the most influential individuals of his era. Capote had a long-term love affair with writer and playwright Jack Dunphy, which lasted until Capote's death from complications of alcoholism. Although Capote spent much of his childhood in the highly religious South, he was not religious himself. Mused Capote: "But, my dear, so few things are fulfilled: what are most lives but a series of incompleted episodes? 'We work in the dark, we do what we can, we give what we have. Our doubt is our passion and our passion is our task. . .' It is wanting to know the end that makes us believe in God, or witchcraft, believe, at least, in something" ("Other Voices, Other Rooms," 1948). D. 1984.
"I belong to no churches and am not a 'Believer' in any formal sense. . . . As for me, I just go my way by myself."
—— Truman Capote, letter to death row inmate Perry Smith, whose crime Capote documented "In Cold Blood" ( January 25, 1965)

Ta-Nehisi Coates
On this date in 1975, writer Ta-Nehisi Coates was born in Baltimore, Md. His father, William, was a former Black Panther who stayed at home to care for their large family while his mother, Cheryl, was the family's breadwinner. Coates wrote about his childhood in West Baltimore in his memoir, "The Beautiful Struggle," and the impact that ongoing violence and crime in his neighborhood had on him and his siblings.
Coates graduated from Woodlawn High School in Baltimore and enrolled in Howard University but dropped out to become a journalist. Coates is a senior editor at The Atlantic, where he writes feature articles and is also one of its most widely-read bloggers. He writes about race, history and politics, among other topics, and has received immense praise for his thoughtful and thought-provoking work. He won the 2012 Hillman Prize for Opinion and Analysis Journalism and the 2014 George Polk Award for his feature article, "The Case for Reparations," in which he wrote, "More important than any single check cut to any African American, the payment of reparations would represent America's maturation out of the childhood myth of its innocence into a wisdom worthy of its founders." Coates was a Martin Luther King Visiting Professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 2013-14. He gives talks across the country about writing, race, politics, and white supremacy in America. He currently lives in Baltimore with his wife and son.

Phil Plait
On this date in 1964, astronomer, blogger, and skeptic Phil Plait was born in Washington D.C. Plait received his undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan and then his PhD in astronomy from the University of Virginia in 1994. He worked with the Hubble Space Telescope for ten years, then got involved with astronomy education. Plait frequently gives talks that focus on astronomy, debunking myths and skepticism. The last slide of his presentation at TAM6, a skeptic conference in Las Vegas, said, "The Universe is cool enough without making up crap about it." His blog, called Bad Astronomy, focuses on similar issues and is currently hosted on Slate Magazine. Bad Astronomy has won many awards, and was named one of the 25 best blogs of 2009 by Time Magazine. Plait became the president of the James Randi Educational Foundation in 2008, but left after a short stint to pursue television projects. He has been a part of many science documentaries, and the Discovery Channel featured Plait in his own documentary, "Bad Universe."
He has written two books, "Death from the Skies!: The Science Behind the End of the World" (2009), and "Bad Astronomy: Misconceptions and Misuses Revealed, from Astrology to the Moon Landing "Hoax" (2002). Along with his blog, he writes magazine articles, many of which are featured on Slate. Phil Plait is married to Marcella Setter, with whom he runs Science Getaways, a vacation service for people who want to learn about science. Setter and Plait have one daughter.

"How do you convince someone they're not thinking clearly, when they're not thinking clearly? What we're actually saying is no magic, no afterlife, no higher moral authoritative father-figure, no security, and no happy ever after. This is a tough sell."
—--Phil Plait in a talk called, "Don't be a dick" at The Amazing Meeting 8, also known as TAM8, a conference put on by the James Randi Educational Foundation, held in Las Vegas in July, 2012.

We need to get together and jam some!!!
Follow Ups:
This is one nice amp! I restored one about 5 years ago. Tone is completely different than a Fender Champ or Princeton. Those 7591A are such great tubes. Clean with nice midrange.
A worthy amp to restore!
Yep, thanks to you we got that little Jet. It works but needs a rebuild due to age have all the parts just need an afternoon to do it.
My son is learning guitar (MIM Strat) and is about ready now for a "real" amp.
The Jet we own is a very early one fairly rare owned by a gentleman who used it to play accordion at his church. My son likes classic rock and blues like his Dad!

It's human nature to talk about things that matter to us. It's different for everybody.
Different interests. passions. causes. life-changing events.
For me, a few of the things I talk a lot about are: vegan-ish food, family travel, homeschooling and chronic pain. Why? Those topics have touched my life in a meaningful way. There are others, but these are the ones I've chosen to talk about here. I hope you will talk to me about things that are meaningful to you.
I'm married to a stubborn Yankee gamer, Scott, and mother to two curious and free-spirited boys, Wes (5 1/2) and Gavin (3 1/2). As an entrepreneur and small business owner, I've crafted a flexible work arrangement that fits with my life, instead of against it. My hair is rarely blow-dried and size-11 flip flops are my shoe of choice. You'll find me in the kitchen, if all else fails. And, just in case you're wondering: I'm a Mac. He's a PC.
vegan-ish food
Cooking is something that I've enjoyed doing since I was a kid. For a long time, our meals included lots of milk, butter, meat, cheese and the like to cater to my omnivore husband and chicken-lovin' boys. But, that all changed the night we watched Forks Over Knives and Fat Sick & Nearly Dead. If you haven't seen those movies, I highly encourage you to do so.
While I've always leaned towards vegetarian meals, I never thought I'd give up cheese (a life without grilled cheese, really?!?). But, those two documentaries opened my eyes (and my husband's) to how much our food choices really do affect our health, short-term and long-term. We dumped out our organic Horizon milk and went vegan overnight. While we're not 100% strictly vegan – hence the title of this site – only 5-10% of our food isn't vegan. That 5-10% of non-vegan food is typically eaten when we're out and have limited choices. Scott, of all of us, has seen the most amazing results from changing his diet: He lost 40 pounds in the first 9 months, his circulation has improved greatly and 3 of his 4 herniated discs healed themselves!
family travel
The benefit of running a mobile, virtual business and homeschooling our boys means we can pick up and go whenever we want. This is, of course, dependent on Scott's current medical condition and pain level and we usually have to make special arrangements to accommodate his condition. That being said, travel is something we love to do and is an inspiring educational experience for all of us.
We decided to homeschool our boys, in order to offer them a more varied, flexible and robust education. It's certainly a challenge! But, totally worth it. Learn with us or offer suggestions, if you're a homeschool veteran – I'd love to hear your perspective!
chronic pain
In 2001, when I married my high school sweetheart, Scott, our lives were very different than they are now. Fast-forward a short 18 months after our wedding, a work-related injury left him with four herniated lumbar discs. A 20-something with the back of a 60-year old and in chronic pain daily is a hard pill to swallow. 10 years, countless doctors' appointments, treatments and remedies later, it's stunning that food is what made all the difference. Three of his four herniated discs have healed themselves, after taking up a mostly vegan diet. He's still in pain every day, but there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Now, to tackle that stubborn L5-S1 disc. 3 down, 1 to go!
That's a little (actually, a LOT) about me. Tell me about YOU! What are a few things that are meaningful to you?

SAINT LEO, Fla. – Saint Leo women's golfer Marie Coors' third-place finish at the UNC Pembroke "Battle at Old South" propelled the senior to Sunshine State Conference Women's Golfer of the Week honors, when weekly conference awards were unveiled Monday.
The SSC Women's Golfer of the Week honor is the first for Coors in an already storied career at Saint Leo. The last Saint Leo women's golfer to win the award was Clare Connolly on April 7, 2014.
Coors carded a 143 (-1) over 36 holes at the par 72, 5874-yard Old South Golf Links in Bluffton, S.C., helping guide the Lions to the "Battle at Old South" team championship. She fired a four-under 68 in Saturday's first round to take a one-stroke lead, and shot a three-over 75 in Sunday's second round.
The tournament win marked the third year-in-a-row that Saint Leo has won a regular season tournament at the Old South Golf Links; the Lions previously won the event in 2014 and 2015 when it was hosted by Lander University.
Saint Leo women's golf returns to action on October 17-18 when the Lions host the 2016 Saint Leo Invitational at the Lake Jovita Golf & Country Club's North Course.
For more information on the Saint Leo women's golf program, visit SaintLeoLions.com. Fans can also stay up-to-date on the latest Lions news by following Saint Leo Athletics on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

Adrian Christy, the national governing body's chief executive, believes that change is necessary to revive a dwindling format but said it would be "hugely disappointing for us and the popularity of the Super Series" if the All England Open, which marks its 100th edition in Birmingham next week, fails to make it to top-tier status.
Under a three-year proposal, tier one would consist of four events with a minimum $400,000 in prize money while tier two would have eight tournaments.
The Badminton World Federation hopes to combat late withdrawals – mainly from China's top players – from its end-of-year Super Series finals by offering world ranking points for qualifiers.
Christy said: "The sport is crying out for this change and is an absolute must. We are behind it and the Super Series has gained momentum in recent years.
"But it would be hugely disappiointing for us and the popularity of the Super Series [if the All England missed out]. The top events have to be there and the All England is the one the top players always want to win."

Our Favorite Snacks From Taiwan
What's better than a piping hot gaiwan full of oolong tea? How about a piping hot gaiwan full of oolong tea plus some classic Taiwanese tea snacks? Popular among locals and as souvenirs for hungry travelers, these snacks are often indulged in over major holidays such as the full moon festival and Chinese New Year. And they're always enjoyed alongside a cup of oolong tea to complete the Taiwanese snacking experience.
Here are a few of our favorite snack-and-oolong pairings:
Pineapple pastry. Made with pineapple, egg yolk, and butter, this treat is fluffy and buttery, with a chewy pineapple stuffing inside. It's Taiwan's most popular souvenir!
-Suggested tea pairing: LiShan Oolong, Dong Ding Oolong
Taro pastry. Our personal fave! We never miss the chance to indulge in taro pastry on our trips back to Taiwan. Made with butter, taro, and red bean taste, taro pastry has a rich taro flavor, a soft texture, and just a hint of sweetness.
- Suggested tea pairing: Tie Kwan Yin Oolong, Oriental Beauty
Nougat brittle. Made with milk and peanuts or almonds, nougat brittle tastes like a chewy version of the brittle you're probably used to. It pairs awesomely with any of our straight oolongs.
- Suggested tea pairing: Any of our straight oolongs.
Green Bean/Black Bean Yolk Pastry. Made with egg yolk, butter, egg, and green bean or black bean paste, the outside of this pastry is sweet, but the egg yolk inside is savory. It's an interesting combination that works delightfully.
- Suggested tea pairing: Alishan Jin Xuan Oolong, Wenshan Baochung Oolong
Sweet and Savory Pastry. Made out of milk, butter, and maple syrup, this pastry has a sweet and savory taste and a delicate, crispy texture reminiscent of chips.
- Suggested tea pairing: Any of our scented oolongs.
These tasty snacks and sweets can be found in most Taiwanese households. Try them out on your next adventure to Taiwan!
Moms ♥ Oolong

More about dermatitis claims
Anyone involved in any sort of work using detergents and solvents is at risk from irritant contact dermatitis, as are those working regularly with oils and greases. Allergic contact dermatitis is most commonly found in people who work with some hair dyes, wet cement, printing inks and adhesives as well as certain foodstuffs (e.g. shellfish or flour).
Those irritants need not be inherently toxic. Some plants or abrasive materials, as well as repeated and prolonged contact with plain water (e.g. having wet hands for more than two hours per shift) can cause irritant dermatitis.
Avoiding the irritants or allergens that cause contact dermatitis usually clears up the condition. However, this isn't always possible, especially if contact with the substances forms part of your work. Treatment involving emollients and corticosteroid medicines for symptoms such as redness, inflammation, dryness, itching or a burning sensation may be required.
Most people with contact dermatitis can expect their symptoms to improve after treatment, but some may experience complications such as infection which could affect your ability to work and your quality of life on a long term basis.
If you are affected by occupational dermatitis, you could make a dermatitis claim. If successful, this would at least provide you with compensation to pay for treatments and therapies you need to manage the condition and better protect your skin and hands in future.

Mapo Hall is located on Mapo Hill ("Okee Mapo"), the heart of the indigenous section of Ibadan, first settled in 1829 by warrior refugees fleeing the ravages of the Fulani wars in the guinea savanna.
Mapo Hill was an obvious strategic position for military defensive purposes because it gives a view of the surrounding country for miles around.
The Hall, designed and constructed by Engineer Robert Taffy Jones in 1925 was cited on the famous Mapo hill, which is the centre of the metropolitan city of Ibadan during the lifetime of prominent Ibadan citizens which includes Arch S.B.Latunde, Chief Ebada Otiti, Chief Agbaje and Chief Ogunmola.
It was constructed during the reign of Baale Shittu Aare. The imposing and ancient hall can be seen from most parts of the city of Ibadan and remains the symbol of authority and unity of Ibadan people.
The motive behind the construction of the town hall was to provide a central and presentable building in form of a hall for the Yoruba's in Ibadan province where they could meet periodically for administrative purposes. Captain W.A. Ross C.M.E, who was then representing the king of England in the Administration of Nigeria, laid the Foundation stone of the town hall.
It is pertinent to mention that the project was executed through communal efforts (direct labour) that involved people in towns and villages within Ibadan. Native authority which consists of the present Oyo state with the inclusion of three towns, Ikirun, Gbongan and Ode-Omu that now fall in Osun state. They were responsible financially for the successful completion of the building project.
Mapo Hall has now been refurbished to wear a new look and is been used for conferences. There is a mini museum which showcases relics of chains used to hold tax evaders in those days. Inside the hall are pictures of all the past Olubadan (king) that reigned till date.

Biophilic Design - The Architecture of Life
Houston GREEN Film Series + Citizens' Environmental Coalition (Houston)
Stephen R. Kellert and Bill Finnegan
More »
A film by Stephen R. Kellert and Bill Finnegan. Biophilic Design is an innovative way of designing the places where we live, work, and learn. We need nature in a deep and fundamental fashion, but we have often designed our cities and suburbs in ways that both degrade the environment and alienate us from nature.
The recent trend in green architecture has decreased the environmental impact of the built environment, but it has accomplished little in the way of reconnecting us to the natural world, the missing piece in the puzzle of sustainable development.
Come on a journey from our evolutionary past and the origins of architecture to the world's most celebrated buildings in a search for the architecture of life. Together, we will encounter buildings that connect people and nature--hospitals where patients heal faster, schools where children's test scores are higher, offices where workers are more productive, and communities where people know more of their neighbors and families thrive.
