Bogota, NJ (PRWEB) January 29, 2014
Don't get hung up hanging cabinets, wall panels, partitions, signs or frames. Traditional, dated hanging approaches are now a distant memory with Outwaters [Outwater Plastics Industries, Inc. + Architectural Products by Outwater, LLC] recently introduced Aluminum Panel Clips, the quickest, most convenient and most cost reliable means for hanging anything you hate to hang.
. With the present trend of bathroom floor cabinets and their once integrated sinks having actually gained independence from one another has not just inspired new cabinet fashions making up contemporary standalone sinks and floating cabinets, it is now likewise the reason for many headaches for builders, contractors and renovators, who need to now use up extra time and effort to completely and firmly fasten these large, heavy structures to the walls in which they are planned to be mounted. Not remarkably, the exact same mounting difficulties also are true for wall panels, partitions, signage and frames, all of which can be extremely difficult to affix too.
. Prior to the intro of Outwaters brand-new line of Aluminum Panel Clips, hanging cabinets, wall panels, partitions, signs and frames utilized to be rather an ungainly, time consuming and labor extensive duty. Initially, contractors, professionals and renovators needed to draw exacting, horizontal lines to function as a template followed by their then having actually needed to drive long screws into studs or mount a ledger board on which to briefly rest these big, awkward products for support during installment. Items would then be screwed into the studs or secured to supports in numerous areas and afterwards shimmed for leveling or filling spaces if required. In using this obsolete technique, required experience was a given, in that without it, there was always some possibility of encountering unforeseen stumbling blocks.
. Nevertheless, Outwaters Aluminum Panel Clips enable quick and simple installations with labor and general cost savings lowered by as much as 50 %. Builders, service providers and renovators now just have to attach the upper part of the Aluminum Panel Clip to the back of the challenge be hung and the lower Aluminum Panel Clip to the mounting surface area to prepare the item for setup. Cabinets, wall panels, partitions, indications and frames can now be firmly and solidly fastened in just minutes utilizing Outwaters Aluminum Panel Clips, which link and lock together by merely lowering the upper Aluminum Panel Clip that has actually been connected to the challenge be hung into the groove of the lower Aluminum Panel Clip that has actually been attached to the desired mounting surface. In addition, unlike common hanging techniques, which are inherently long-term, Outwaters Aluminum Panel Clips readily allow products to be demounted as needed.
. Outwaters Aluminum Panel Clips are equipped in mill finished, extruded aluminum 4-ft., 8-ft. and 12-ft. lengths and precut 1-1/2-in., 2-in. and 2-1/2-in. pieces both with and without predrilled holes (Holes are 3/16-in. diameter and accommodate # 10 screws) in eight various profiles, allowing set up items to rest flush versus any mounting surface area.
. Outwater also offers a little, convenient, affordable acrylic Bubble Level that can be used for leveling Outwaters Aluminum Panel Clips on any horizontal surface.

Cloud Ten Pictures has announced a continent-wide talent search to fill at least one of six roles for the new Left Behind television series that will debut in 2003. Open casting auditions will be held on December 13th-14th in Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, Dallas, Toronto, and Montreal. Additional cities will be announced in December.
"All six of the roles we're looking to fill are lead roles that are essential to the series," says Lalonde. "They are all significant speaking parts representing a great variety of ages and ethnicities. What we're looking for is that person, or persons, who have the gifts necessary to impact a nation with their performance. It may be a veteran actor or someone with considerably less experience. Experience comes second to raw talent."
Casting agents will be on-site to videotape all auditions, evaluate all performances and then forward their top choices to Cloud Ten's head casting agent in Toronto. Sides (script sections to be used for auditions) will be posted on the Cloud Ten corporate website (www.cloudtenpictures.com). Selected finalists will be flown to Toronto for one final audition before a final selection, or selections, is made. All hopefuls are asked to bring a photo of themselves to the open auditions. Resumés are also welcomed but not necessary. All audition information and details on locations are available online at
www.cloudtenpictures.com. The age group and ethnicities for the roles that Cloud Ten is looking to fill are:

Does An Outsourced PPC Campaign Add Value To Your Business?
Tarun Jain 3 Min Read
Have you ever considered outsourcing your PPC campaign management to an external agency and wondered whether it will add value to the business? Well, it may or might not. The success will depend upon the business expectations, level of collaboration with the agency and whether outsourcing this work is a right fit for the organization. Let us analyze why outsourcing a PPC campaign can add value to a business and why it may not.
How outsourcing will add value
1) Focus on core capabilities – Outsourcing a PPC campaign enables an organization to save time and help them to focus on their core capabilities. For example, let us assume there is a bank who wishes to launch a PPC campaign, but has low technical capabilities and has no prior experience in search engine marketing. It may make more sense to outsource the PPC campaign launch responsibilities to an agency who has developed capabilities in the search engine marketing domain. This will help the bank in devoting more time to the design and development of financial product and services which is their expertise area rather than designing the PPC campaign.
2) In-depth industry knowledge – A dedicated manager shall have a better and clearer view of the overall landscape than the in-house manager with multiple focus areas. Additionally, they will be better at finding solutions to complex problems owing to their in-depth knowledge and prior experience. Agencies will also have much better awareness regarding all the major changes taking place in the AdWords area and up to date knowledge which deeply affect the implementation of PPC strategies.
3) Cost optimization – With an access to an expert PPC team, there are higher chances of a greater return on investment on the advertising expenditure. A PPC team can help in avoidance of expensive mistakes by virtue of their experience and to focus on the right metrics to measure and monitor the effectiveness of the campaign.
4) Achieving scalability – A PPC agency can help a business in achieving scale within a shorter span of time through effective campaigns. This will help the companies in attracting a larger number of customers leading to cost reduction through economies of scale.
How outsourcing will NOT add value
1) Collaboration gap – Outsourcing a PPC campaign will not work unless there is a high degree of understanding between the organization and the agency. PPC campaigns cannot be developed in isolation. Organizations need to work closely with the external PPC teams in order to make the campaign tie up with its overall business and corporate strategy. Thus, if there is a higher gap in coordination, the PPC campaign might turn out to be nothing than a cost center.
2) Lack of flexibility and agility – An in-house team is always generally more flexible and agile than an external team. If the dynamics of business keep on changing very frequently, it takes a larger amount of time as well as resources in terms of increased number of phone calls, increased number of meetings and e-mails to get those changes reflected in the campaign. This may greatly reduce the flexibility and agility of an organization to respond to environmental changes in a small time.
3) Improper timing of the launch – An organization needs to be ready with its sales team to effectively respond to the queries that will get generated after the campaign launch. In addition to it, the organization must also be ready with a responsive web team for making changes to the website. For a startup with a limited budget, the increase in agency fees might be greater than the improvement in sales leading to a decreased profitability.
Thus, a business has to carefully evaluate its business expectations against the usefulness of the PPC campaign outsourcing stated above and take an informed decision. After all, nothing works in the same way for different organizations.

The benefits of knowing some pidgin Chinese
Posted by henning May 7, 2008 in the Group General Discussion .
Yesterday. Lecture hall, 80 students.
Second row: Chinese girl fell asleep. Despite me fighting with all my weapons to keep the lazy lot entertained.
So I asked: "睡好了吗?"
I do not know if that was really grammatically correct, but it had the effect of a lightning stroke. For the rest of the lecture she stayed wide awake.
This was already the second time this worked.

Euro officials will announce Wednesday what country (or countries) will host the 2012 European Championship.
Italy is the overwhelming favorite, but should UEFA choose non-traditional venues instead? And should Italy's domestic problems be a factor in the decision?

If going "traditional," why wouldn't Spain host since they haven't done so since 1964. (Italy hosted in both 1968 and 1980.) If not Spain then maybe a group of countries in Eastern Europe could host, which always helps build popularity for the sport.

Italy should not be rewarded for the disgusting manner in which they conduct the business of football in their country. I love Italy and would love to make an extended trip of such a tournament, but morally it would be wrong to provide more positive reinforcement for a governing body that has no spine or will to clean up a rotten sporting culture of cheating and violence.
With Platini in charge and his Juventus roots, I suspect that once again UEFA will continue to look the other way and award the tournament to Italy.

Italy should not even be considered at this time. Too many internal problems dealing with the soccer league. Why not a group of small neighboring countries with stability or less problem?

As an alternative suggestion, I think it would be great to see the European Championships held in The Czech Republic. I know they lack the amount (and size) of stadiums that are probably required, but maybe they could build some. Maybe they could partner with Slovakia in the way Holland/Belgium did in 2004 and Switzerland/Austria will be doing next summer.

I just read the UEFA release and it appears that there are three finalists:
Croatia/Hungary, Italy and Poland/Ukraine
Poland has not taken steps to get rid of some pretty repugnant racism in their stadiums, so I would have to give my support to the Croatia/Hungary hosting team. I can think of at least one or two United fans that would be overjoyed if this came to pass!

UEFA would once again show their utter incompetence by giving the tournament to Italy - a country which is in need of a restructuring at the level of post-Taylor Report Great Britain. I guess their logic is that the award will prompt many safety and ground changes between now and 2012. We'll see.
Hungary and Croatia would be cool shared hosts. But cool and appropriate will certainly lose out to money and politics. This is world football we're talking about.

I hope it is awarded Latvia. When UEFA realizes that Latvia doesn't have the infrastructure, they will ask the US to host it on short notice :-)
Posted by: I-270, Exit 1 | April 17, 2007 10:35 AM | Report abuse
I'd like to stick up for Italy here. It would be great, and also would provide an outside impetus for the stadiums to be modernized. Part of the problem there is that many of the stadiums are municipal instead of controlled by the teams, so this leads to problems with keeping them up to date with safety regulations. An example is the laughably bad condition of the Artemio Franchi in Florence. This would give the country a reason to modernize its grounds and confront the hooliganism problems.

If you're the sort of person who enjoys watching draft lotteries and televised player signings, the host announcement is being streamed live tomorrow by Eurosport. You can get the feed at http://www.eurosport.com/mclivevideo.shtml.
Of course, it's at 4:30 am eastern time, but at least then you'll be up to watch the European Weightlifting Championship, which Eurosport is also streaming. Hours and hours of people grunting and screaming while lifting big heavy things. Fun!

Steve Addazio is the new head coach for the Boston College football team.
A press conference was held yesterday to introduce the former Temple University head coach, who will take over for Frank Spaziani less than two weeks after the former coach was fired.
"The mantra of Boston College is 'Ever to Excel,'" said Athletic Director Brad Bates. "Today we celebrate a leader who thrives in the context of daily striving for excellence."
Addazio was signed to a six-year contract. He most recently led the Owls to a 9-4 record and their first bowl win in 32 years during his first season as a head coach in 2011. Temple then moved to the Big East from the Mid-American Conference last year, and went 4-7. Addazio also served under head coach Urban Meyer at the University of Florida, and won two national championships during his time with the Gators.
"I'm here for the long haul, and I'm here to win championships," Addazio said. "And win championships with class and honor and develop young men on the football field and off the football field and in the classroom—men that are going to leave Boston College one day and are going to make a difference in society and this world we live in in a positive way."
Addazio is from New England and remembers where he watched Doug Flutie's pass to Gerard Phalen. He also was a four-year starter for Central Connecticut State University during the late '70s, and he recalled driving up to BC with his friends at the end of every season to watch the Eagles play Holy Cross. He knew back then that he wanted to be a college football coach someday, and as he sat there watching the game, he told himself that one day he would like to bring his team out onto that field.
"My dream was to come to a university that was all about the family concept," Addazio said. "I grew up in a strong family with strong faith, and I have an opportunity to now lead a football program within a tremendous family with a strong faith."
Bates described the coaching search as thorough, meticulous, and deliberate. He was looking for someone who had a strong history of facilitating a family culture within a program, an inspiring passion for his students and the sports, and a pedigree of winning and building championship programs.
BC has gone two straight seasons without making a bowl game, and the team went just 2-10 this year.
"It's time to turn the page," Addazio said, "To come together and unite and all work together for the same goals."
He announced that Ryan Day, formerly a wide receivers coach at BC and the offensive coordinator at Temple last season, will take over for Doug Martin as BC's offensive coordinator. He will take time to evaluate the rest of the staff as he gets settled, but he is already infusing the program with his enthusiasm.
"When you press play on the video, what I'll expect and what I'll want you to see is a team that plays with energy and passion and a love of the game and is excited," he said. "A team that plays hard. A team that you can tell loves the game of football and treats it as a privilege and not as a right."
The players met the coach for the first time during a team meeting before Addazio's introductory press conference.
"We're not playing in a bowl game," he said. "We're hungry and we're disappointed. I talked to the team before I came in here. I said to the team, 'You sit in that chair and I hope there's a disappointment. I hope it hurts. I hope there's a hunger and I hope there's a drive. I hope that you understand that you came to Boston College to win championships, and I hope that fuels as we start this offseason workout program, because we're all striving for success and we're all competitors.'"
Addazio stressed the importance of his role off the field as well.
"I'm a teacher, and it's very important to me to know that I can be a small piece of the development of a young man," Addazio said. "The whole young man, not just the football piece."
He also emphasized that BC is the perfect place for him.
"I want to be here and finish my career here," he said. "This is where I want to be. I have a home up in Cape Cod. I'm in New England. I'm at the most wonderful place I could possibly be at, and I couldn't be more clear about that."
It will be nine months until Addazio coaches his first real game as an Eagle at USC to start the 2013 season, but his energy and his passion are already evident.
"I'm proud to be a Boston College Eagle, and I won't let you down," he said. "I've got drive and I've got energy. I've got a love and passion for what I do, for these student-athletes, and for Boston College."

Does He Have To Tell You Everything? Six Things Your Man Won't Say…But Expects You To Know
You've been with your guy for about 6 months now, and you've even had the "boyfriend/girlfriend" talk (do people still do that?). Anyway, you think you know all there is to know about him – his mother's maiden name, his likes and dislikes, his favorite cereal, etc. But men will never truly reveal everything to you, no matter how much he may like – or even love – you. It's not that he's keeping secrets or doesn't trust you – it's usually a case of him wanting to you to figure it out or just "know" him as time goes on. If you're totally into him and care about him, there are some things you'll just naturally pick up on; but if you have preconceived notions about your boo, you might not ever be able to understand him the way you possibly could. Whether it's been months, or years, here are just a few things men won't tell you – they just want you to "know."

Have to share a little post from my good friend Melanie's blog! She has been an amazing force and such an inspiration for me- thought you guys would appreciate her point of view!
Last night was a big night for me personally and in my business. I was asked to be on our Bombshell Dynasty coach call to talk about my success as a Beachbody coach. When I was first asked to do the call I really had to sit down and think about what I was doing because honestly I didn't know how I had made it work. But after talking to quite a few of my close friends and fellow coaches I came up with a game plan. This call made me evaluate the person that I am and the growth that has occurred over the last 6 months. I started out as a mom who had 30 pounds to lose after giving birth to her second baby. I found myself sitting in my living room, desperate and depressed with the body I was living in. Thank goodness my coach reached out to me and invited me to do this challenge because it has changed my life FOREVER!
I absolutely love coaching other people and the big reason that I do it is because I love helping other people. It is just an innate quality that is built into who I am. I have this genuine interest is seeing other people succeed. This is really the key reason why I put so much time into the challenges that I run. If you are going to invest your money into the fitness program and Shakeology then I want you to get your monies worth. I spend the time each day to read your posts and answer your emails along with providing nutritional tips and motivation to keep pushing yourself harder. The best part of it all is that I am doing it right along side of you! If you are up early because you are a busy mom or working individual then I am right there with you at 5:45am 6 days a week. I am leading by example and I practice what I preach. I have done Insanity, P90X and now TurboFire so I can speak from experience when I say that it works! I follow the eat clean lifestyle even after I achieved my weight loss goals. I love the way I feel and I am maintaining my physique while I am at it. If you give it all you've got for the entire fitness program then you WILL see results! These challenges will change your life! And for some they already have! I have a handful of friends or people that I didn't know very well before that have committed to my challenges and have transformed their lives inside and out! That to me is worth more than a paycheck each week, I love the feeling that I helped someone make a change in their life that will make them live longer and feel better.
My goal with each challenge group is to add value to your life! Not only to coach you through a fitness program and provide you strength when you are feeling weak. But to give you the tools to stick with your exercise program, change your eating habits and create a new, healthier, fit YOU!
So ask yourself, "Do you want that for yourself?" Are you sitting here thinking that you need a Melanie Mitro overhaul to your life? If you can answer yes, then take that leap of faith and go to www.teambeachbody.com/melaniemitro and create a free account and I will start coaching you towards your health and fitness goals!
You can check out my transformation story by clicking on this link and watching my video!
I will be kicking off my next beachbody challenge on the 25th of November. It is a 30 day Brazil Butt Lift Challenge to get your booty in shape for the holidays. This might be a great way for you to get started exercising because the workouts aren't super long but they are intense and you will feel the booty burn! I have done BBL workouts at fit club and they are amazing! I will also be running some new challenge groups in the near future such as Turbofire, Insanity and P90X2! So join my team and together we can reach your goals! Oh and if you are a current customer of mine and you refer a friend who signs up for the challenge pack I will give you a $25 gift certificate towards your next Beachbody purchase which can include Shakeology!
My motto: happiness is knowing who you are, what you want and how you want it. Happiness is knowing you are doing the right things for yourself and the right people!

In our school we believe collective worship should provide opportunity for reflection and a diversity of response. The act of worship will endeavour to cater for children of many different beliefs and backgrounds whilst being of a broadly Christian nature for all pupils.
Collective worship makes an important, although not exclusive, contribution to spiritual, moral and cultural development in our school.
The 1988 Education Act stated that:
• all pupils must take part in a collective act of worship every day.
• the act of collective worship may be as a whole school or in different age groupings.
• it may happen at any time of the school day.
• it has to take place on school premises (in an aided school the Governors can make arrangements for worship elsewhere on special occasions e.g. the local church).
• the head teacher is responsible for ensuring the legal requirements for collective worship are met (in an aided school the responsibility for securing daily acts of worship lies with the governing body after consultation with the head teacher).
• the character and content of collective worship in these schools continues to be determined by governing bodies in accordance with their trust deeds.
• all staff, including the head teacher have the legal right to withdraw from collective worship. The head teacher remains responsible for finding someone suitable to organise and lead the acts of worship.
• all parents have the right to withdraw their children from collective worship, wholly or partially. The school's responsibility for the child's health and safety is still paramount.

Thanks, in the absence of a punchline I went for something weird. Glad it worked.

On Feb. 17, 2009, President Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act), a critical measure to stimulate the economy. Among other provisions, the new law provides major opportunities for the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), its partner agencies, and the States to improve the nation's health care through health information technology (HIT) by promoting the meaningful use of electronic health records (EHR) via incentives (EHR Stimulus).
Funding for the EHR Stimulus is available to certain eligible professionals (EPs) and hospitals, as described below. Funds will be distributed through Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments to EPs, physicians, and hospitals who are "meaningful EHR users." In addition, with regard to the Medicaid program, federal matching funds are also available to States to support their administrative costs associated with these provisions.
Criteria for Qualifying for an Incentive
The qualification criteria for incentives (i.e., meeting specified HIT standards, policies, implementation specifications, timeframes, and certification requirements) are still in development, and will be defined through regulation and additional guidance materials. However, CMS generally expects that under Medicare, "meaningful EHR users" would demonstrate each of the following: meaningful use of a certified EHR, the electronic exchange of health information to improve the quality of health care, and reporting on clinical quality and other measures using certified EHR technology. Medicaid programs will determine their own requirements in line with the Medicaid-related provisions of the Recovery Act. Funds for the EHR Stimulus will be distributed through Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments to EPs and hospitals who are "meaningful EHR users." CMS intends to publish a proposed rule in late 2009 to propose a definition of meaningful use of certified Electronic Health Records (EHR) technology and establish criteria for the incentives programs. CMS is working extensively with the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) to identify the proposed criteria.
Medicare Payment Incentives for Eligible Professionals
The Recovery Act establishes financial incentives beginning in January 2011 for eligible professionals (EPs) who are meaningful EHR users. Beginning in 2015, payment adjustments will be imposed on EPs who are not meaningful EHR users. Hospital-based physicians who substantially furnish their services in a hospital setting are not eligible.
Incentive Payments
The EHR Stimulus incentive payment is equal to 75 percent of Medicare allowable charges for covered services furnished by the EP in a year, subject to a maximum payment in the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth years of $15,000; $12,000; $8,000; $4000; and $2,000, respectively. For early adopters whose first payment year is 2011, the maximum payment is $18,000 in the first year. There will be no payments for meaningful EHR use after 2016. There would be no payments to EPs who first become meaningful EHR users in 2015 or thereafter. For EPs who predominantly furnish services in a health professional shortage area (HPSA), incentive payments would be increased by 10 percent.
Payment Adjustments
The Medicare fee schedule amount for professional services provided by an EP who was not a meaningful EHR user for the year would be reduced by 1 percent in 2015, by 2 percent in 2016, by 3 percent for 2017 and by between 3 to 5 percent in subsequent years. For 2018 and thereafter, if the Secretary finds that the proportion of EPs who are meaningful EHR users is less than 75 percent, then the reductions will be increased by 1 percentage point each year, but by not more than 5 percent overall.
Medicaid Payment Incentives
The Recovery Act establishes 100 percent Federal Financial Participation (FFP) for States to provide EHR Stimulus incentive payments to eligible Medicaid providers to purchase, implement, and operate (including support services and training for staff) certified EHR technology. It also establishes 90 percent FFP for State administrative expenses related to carrying out this provision.
Incentive Payments to Providers
Certain classes of Medicaid professionals and hospitals are eligible for EHR Stimulus incentive payments to encourage the adoption and use of certified EHR technology. Eligible professionals include physicians, dentists, certified nurse-midwives, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants who are practicing in Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) or Rural Health Clinics (RHCs) led by a physician assistant.
Eligible professionals must meet minimum Medicaid patient volume percentages, and must waive rights to duplicative Medicare EHR Stimulus incentive payments. Eligible professionals may receive up to 85 percent of the net average allowable costs for certified EHR technology, including support and training (determined on the basis of studies that the Secretary will undertake), up to a maximum level, and incentive payments are available for no more than a 6-year period.
Acute care hospitals with at least 10 percent Medicaid patient volume would also be eligible for EHR Stimulus payments, as would children's hospitals of any patient volume. Entities that promote the adoption of certified EHR technology, as designated by the State, are also eligible to receive incentive payments through arrangements with eligible professionals under certain conditions.
Medicaid Incentive Program Qualifications
To be eligible for EHR Stimulus incentive payments not associated with the initial adoption/implementation/upgrade of EHR technology, the provider must demonstrate meaningful use of the EHR technology through a means approved by the State and acceptable to the Secretary. In determining what is "meaningful use," a State must ensure that populations with unique needs, such as children, are addressed. A State may also require providers to report clinical quality measures as part of the meaningful use demonstration. In addition, to the extent specified by the Secretary, the EHR technology must be compatible with State or Federal administrative management systems.
EPs may not receive an EHR Stimulus incentive under both Medicare and Medicaid in a given year. CMS and the States will develop means to prevent such duplicate payments. CMS expects that the prevention of duplicative payments will be addressed more fully through notice and comment rule making.

We must learn to differentiate between what is of God and what is of man. What is of human origin and what is of Godly origin? Someone may say to you that you must trust God a certain way or live your Christian life a certain way or follow an experience they had or have a certain kind of experience with God. I'm not saying there is no merit in those things, but we should question the source. The danger is for anyone of us to make ourselves feel pious, godly, and "in touch with God – you can't touch me," by the actions we take or the words we speak. The question we must always ask is whether we do these things for ourselves or for Christ. Do we do these things because they make us feel good or feel spiritual? Or do we do these things to give praise and glory God?
Devotion, self-denial, and discipline are all necessary to follow Jesus. But they are not the answer to conquering the old flesh, the old you. The answer is in accepting the fact that the old you has died with Christ. You are a "new you" now. And the new you is capable of sincere selfless devotion, self-denial, and discipline in the strength of Christ because He now lives in you and through you.
Colossians 3:3-4, 10 (Ph) says, As far as this world is concerned, you are already dead, and your true life is a hidden one in Christ. One day, Christ, the secret center of our lives, will show himself openly, and you will all share in that magnificent denouement. … You have finished with the old man and all he did and have begun life as the new man, who is out to learn what he ought to be, according to the plan of God.
It's time now to learn all about who you are as the "new person" in Christ. Learn what God's plan is for you. Learn the truth and live it. You are new! You are alive! You are connected to Christ and His power forever! Live your new life with your new freedom in the new power you have from Christ living through you. This is your life now.

Last week our son Andrew ran the City of Oaks Marathon in Raleigh, NC. Charlyn and I had the great opportunity to be there and watch him and cheer him on. It was an enriching time. As I think back on his race and the preparation he put into it, I think of some things that would encourage us in our spiritual race of faith in Christ.
Living and growing in the Christian life is a long distance race. The Bible says, Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, Heb. 12:1. The journey of faith is a marathon not a sprint. When people think of a marathon, most simply think that a person runs for several miles and that's a really cool thing. But a lot goes into the preparation and a lot happens during the race. After all it's over twenty six miles. To run that far is a huge feat in itself.
We're all in the race of faith. Paul points to the finish line for us when he says, "I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God's grace". Acts 20:24.
When I think of Andrew completing his marathon I think of several things that apply to each of us in our "life-long race of faith":
One is self-discipline. To rise early in the mornings, even when it was dark and cold, and run twelve or eighteen or twenty miles – takes self-discipline. To be faithful to the Lord and to what He says to do requires self-discipline. To follow Jesus as a disciple takes discipline. For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline. 2 Tim. 1:7
Setting our minds on what we are going to do is essential too. Andrew made the decision to run the marathon months before the event itself. He set his mind to it and trained for it. Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. Col. 3:1-2. Set your mind on the interests of the Lord and you'll run a worthy race.
Stay in the race even when you're attacked by the enemy. Early one dark morning as Andrew was running his eighteen mile training run, he was attacked and bitten in the back of the leg by a pit bull. He fell down and began kicking. The dog ran away. Andrew got up and kept running for another eight miles before he felt the pain, and then decided to go back and tend to the wound. I'm thankful to say he required no stitches, only a tetanus shot, and the dog was not rabid. The next morning Andrew was out running again. We will be attacked and even knocked down at times, and momentarily hindered, but we must get up and get back to running the race. Just because you're knocked off your feet at a point in time doesn't mean you're finished. The race is still in front of you. Run it! …finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given…
Hydration is a must when running a long distance. Andrew took advantage of the water stations along the way. He, like the others, paused and quickly gulped down cups of water. Jesus said, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life". Rev. 21:6. Unless we pause regularly along the course of faith to drink of the life-giving water from Jesus, we will lose energy, stumble and fall, and bring unnecessary pain and problems to ourselves.
Encouragement from others injects strength into our weary spirits. We are dependent on the cheering from others to "keep going, don't stop, you can do it, take the hill,…" Andrew was greatly motivated by someone he didn't know who ran up along side him and said, "Be strong brother. There's a hill up ahead." Paul emphasizes the significance of encouragement when he speaks of Titus – "In addition to our own encouragement, we were especially delighted to see how happy Titus was, because his spirit has been refreshed by all of you." 2 Cor. 7:13. Get around people who are encouraging and be refreshed.
There's a saying among marathoners – "The real race is the last six miles. That's when the race really begins." The first twenty are hard, but the last six are grueling. It becomes a matter of pure endurance. And there is nothing wrong with gritty endurance. It's everything right. The Bible tells us over and over to endure and persevere. It's a component of faith. Jesus said, "The one who endures to the end will be saved". Matt. 24:13.
So be strong brothers and sisters. Hills are up ahead. And by God's grace and our gritty endurance we will cross those hills and then we'll cross the last one. And as we come over that last hill we will see the finish line in the distance and we'll run with renewed vigor because we know the arms of Jesus are opened wide and waiting for us on the other side.

Do you get energy from words?
Often our mind tells us to stop or slow down, way before our
body is ready to.
So we've put together five of our favourite inspirational quotes to help you fight back the little downer voice in your head that tells you that you can't.
Go on, try chanting them in your mind during that next set of burpees!
"Nothing great ever came from comfort zones"
Being out of your comfort zone, no matter what you are doing, is scary, stressful and hard – and our body doesn't like it!
It's OK to be out of breath, to feel discomfort, to push yourself to your limits – your body will adjust. That adjustment is exactly the reason you are working out – it's that adjustment that causes wonderful changes in your body.
"Make every move count"
Why do something if you're not going to do it properly? This is important whether you're warming up, in the middle of some tough glute work at the barre or stretching and cooling down after class.
At Core Candy we are always for quality not quantity. One fabulous rep of an exercise is so much better than five sets of the same exercise performed with poor form (*another reason coming to Core Candy is better than working out alone at the gym!) We'd rather you slow down, check in with your body and do the movements with correct posture and form than give up and cheat your way through the movements.
You made a huge effort to get to class – make every movement count.
"One workout closer to being sexy as &%$*!"
We work out to feel more powerful and confident, both emotionally and physically – do you agree? Power and confidence are sexy, no matter your gender.
"Better for it"
This was one of the tag lines on the Nike NTC Tour that was held recently in Sydney, Melbourne and Auckland – a fantastic event!
"If you can push through these tuck jumps you'll be BETTER FOR IT". We love this – it's simple and true. We always feel better after a good sweat sesh and we're healthier for it.
"If it doesn't challenge me, it won't change me"
An oldie but a goodie because it's so true! Your workouts need to be physically challenging or you'll stop seeing results. In order to improve your fitness, strength and stamina, you need to challenge yourself.
Switching up your fitness routine and exercises will ensure your body is always challenged. Look forward to doing the exercises that you hate because they're hard – when you suddenly realise you can do them you'll love them!
So – clear your mind of can't (woop there's another!) – and start pumping yourself up instead with inspirational words that speak to you.
What inspires you to get through a tough workout? Hit us up with your favourite motivational quotes!

Children's Theatre Exchange: Canada meets Russia & USA
WINGS FOR CLOWNS by Piano Theatre (Theatre of Deaf Children )
Non-Verbal Performance
When: September 16, at 6:00 pm
Where: Kailash Mital Theatre, Carleton University,
1125 Colonel By Dr.
Ages: all ages
Duration: 1.5 hours
Tickets: $15-$20
Children 3 and under are free.
6:00-6:20 pm – Theatrical composition "Magic Transformations" by young actors of three theatres that will present the result of their creative collaboration during international Children's Theatre Exchange program. Participating theatres: Once Upon a Kingdom Theatre (Canada), Piano Theatre (Russia), Solo Theater (USA).
6:20-7:30 pm – Show Wings For Clowns by Piano Theatre.
In no way being deaf limits the artistic expression of the troupe of child actors from Russia. In many ways, their unique perspective on the world – one without sound – informs their art and their performance.
In Wings For Clowns, the actors use the language of motion to deliver several miniature performances featuring archetypal characters such as Pierrot, Harlequin, Columbine, Old Man and Old Woman. Trees, Sea, Wind and Rain are the main heroes of the performance. Through these characters the inner life of each performer is revealed and the audience is engaged.
Between the spectators and actors emerges a unified area of co-participation, co-creation, co-experience: this is the marvelous effect of "Piano" that strives to repeat it again and again.
The "Piano" Theatre began in 1986 at the Nizhny Novgorod (Russia) boarding school for deaf children and has participated in more than 50 international festivals, 5 world festivals in 15 countries including Russia, Germany, USA, Luxembourg, Finland, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Austria, Canada.

I am writing this in response to the answer by and ICAEW staff in the discussion "ACA vs ACCA" : www.ion.icaew.com/.../22442 , where certain benefits have been discussed regarding the ACA qualification over ACCA.
In the discussion "ACA vs ACCA" Suzanne Heath has stated that it takes 3 years to complete the ACA qualification on average. ACA qualification also focuses on development of ethics throughout the training period. Also the training is formalised and highly regulated which is one of the distinguishing features of ACA over ACCA. I have no doubt over the quality of the ACA qualification but I would like to highlight some severe problems faced by ICAEW students in Pakistan.
I myself am an ACCA finalist who will be attempting my final exam in Dec 2011. I recently registered with the ICAEW as an independent student and have been awarded exemptions for 10 Professional stage exam papers. I live in Pakistan and I am also facing a similar problem as any other student in my country.
From now on I will be paying the annual subscription fee, but there is no response from any of the approved training organisations registered with the ICAEW I have applied to, although I have an excellent academic record and 6 months experience in an audit firm as an ACCA Trainee. It is considered to be a miracle if someone gets the ICAEW training contract in Pakistan unless you personally know the senior partner at that firm or one of its big clients, but even if we get this contract, the firms pay us way less than the minimum wage in Pakistan i.e the minimum wage is Rs.8000/mnth whereas the firms here don't pay you more than Rs.6500/mnth. To top it all off one of the big 4 (Ernst & Young) pays its ICAEW trainees Rs.5000/mnth for the entire 3.5 year term of the contract. Just to put things in perspective, a house maid earns more than twice this amount.
I think that after putting so much time, money and effort into the ACA qualification, not being able to get a training contract that pays you almost half the minimum wage for 3.5 years of your life is a tragedy. How can this be a sign of proper regulation and high regard of ethics by ICAEW?
After considering all these facts I will be 27 years old (making it 7 years to qualify) till I finally give the case study exam and qualify as an ACA and start making money which I won't be embarrassed for me to tell people about. And that is only if I am lucky enough to even get this training contract with an approved training organisation.
I believe that it should be ICAEW's responsibility to make sure that all these students who invested so much in the ACA qualification at the very least get the training contract.
Please, don't mind my harsh language but it is what it is and I would be interested to know what I should do in this scenario and what are ICAEW's efforts regarding these problems faced by its students.
can acca afiliate compete aca in pakistan????if it,s possible thenguide plz

The lead singer of South Korean boy band Shinee has killed himself after sending a message to his sister saying: 'Tell everyone I've had a hard time', it has been reported.
Kim Jong-hyun was found unconscious in an apartment in Cheongdam-dong, in the upscale Gangnam district of the capital Seoul.
The 27-year-old singer, also known as Jonghyun, is said to have checked into a serviced residence for two nights and was discovered by police today after his sister raised the alarm.
Local reports say he sent a final message to his sister saying: 'It's been too hard. Please send me off. Tell everyone I've had a hard time. This is my last goodbye.'
He is then reported to have killed himself with carbon monoxide.
Kim was part of the five-member K-Pop boyband Shinee that had become one of the country's most popular in recent years.
They released their debut album, The Shinee World, in 2008.
The group has one a number of awards for their spectacular dance routines and a Japanese-language version of one f their hits, Replay, sold more than 100,000 copies in that country.
Kim went solo in 2015 and had performed two solo concerts in Seoul earlier this month.

We're delighted to see Icom America's support of Jamboree on the Air. JOTA is the world's largest Scouting event with over 1 million Scouts participating from 10,000 amateur radio stations in 150+ countries. It all happens the third weekend of October.
As part of Icom America's sponsorship of Boy Scouts of America's amateur radio programs, they've agreed to provide promotional support for Jamboree on the Air. This is in addition to their amateur radio station loan program to local Scout councils and their transceivers and repeater sponsorship at the 2013 and 2017 National Scout Jamborees at the Summit in West Virginia.
You can learn more about Jamboree on the Air at the official BSA JOTA web pages. Detailed operator guidelines, including recommended frequencies can be found here. We encourage you to get on the air during JOTA, either with a local club station that's set up for a Scouting event, or with your own station handing out QSO's. JOTA is not a contest. Instead, it is a conversation with Scouts to introduce them to the technology and fun of amateur radio while reaching out to other Scouts across their city, state, country, and world.
For the 2016 Jamboree on the Air, Icom America provided prizes to stimulate station reporting after the JOTA weekend. Station reports increased by 50% from the previous year. The winner of the grand prize, an Icom ID-51A Plus, was Crew 125 from Carmel, Indiana, shown here with their new HT.
In the summer of 2012, Icom America produced a series of point of purchase displays promoting Jamboree on the Air for use by their dealers. Designed by the Creative Team at the National Office of the Boy Scouts of America, Icom produced and distributed several items, including banners, window clings, display stands, and tear sheets with the overall design concept shown below.

White Bean Tortillas
Makes about 6 small Tortillas
1/4 Cup Coconut Flour
1/4 White Beans (soaked 24 hours, then cooked)
1/4 Cup Almond Milk
8 Egg Whites
1/4 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 tsp Salt
Blend Almond milk and beans in a blender or food processor. Once pureed add remaining ingredients, batter will be runny. Heat a non-stick saute pan on medium-low. Poor a small circle of batter into the hot pan and tilt it around quickly to spread the batter into a thinner circle. Flip after about 2 or 3 minutes, it will look like the tortilla batter dried on the one side up (will make sense when you make em). Cook other side another 2 minutes and serve.
**To flip - slip the spatula under the ends all the way around the tortilla and then slowly slip it under all the way around to loosen entire tortilla and flip. Be careful, I went through 3 my first try before I got it right ;)
*Note - One side will look like a pancake, the other will look like a tortilla :)

Thanks Cousin! I bet even your hubby will like em, mine did ;)Delete
These are awesome!! You can actually pick them up and roll them like a soft taco and everything. I'm so glad I found your site. Can't wait to try some other recipes!ReplyDeleteReplies
I'm so glad you liked them! Thanks for visiting my blog! =DDelete
Hi there,ReplyDelete
How did you cook the white beans and which white beans did you use?Replies
Hi Maera :)Delete
I use white Navy beans. I have started to do them in the crockpot. Soak them for 20 hours in the crockpot, changing the water once. Then turn on the crockpot on low for about 4 hours or until tender. I have also done it in a regular bowl, and then transfer to a pot. Just remember, the beans with grow when you soak them, so make sure you have double the water in whatever you are soaking them in. I hope this helps!
Hi Michelle, I used Lima beans while waiting for your response and those turned out great, too. I will definitely try white navy beans next.ReplyDelete
This recipe is really terrific!
Oh these look great! I want to try to sub out the almond milk for raw organic cow's milk, do you think it will turn out? Thanks for posting, I'm new to grain free so easy fool proof recipes are a hit :)ReplyDeleteReplies
I Kailie! I'm so sorry I missed your question. I hope going grain free is treating you well! I just wanted to share with you that that substitution would work just fine. It all depends on the flavor you are going for. With grain free recipes, it seems as long as the texture is near the same, the recipe works perfect :)Delete
Thanks for all you share here. I'd like to clarify if the amount of white beans is 1/4 cup? And if so, that's the dry bean measurement, right? Would that be about 1/2 after they're soaked? I'd like to cook a larger batch since I'm cooking them and am trying to figure out how many cooked beans for each recipe. Thanks..ReplyDeleteReplies
Hi Dorothy! I soaked the beans first and then measured them to 1/4 cup. The egg whites is what gives this recipe the right texture; the beans are there for a nice savory flavor. I hope this helps! Thanks for stopping by my blog =DDelete
*soaked and cooked, then measured :)Delete
Thanks, Michelle. I'm looking forward to making these. I'll fill them with salsa chicken. Yum!Delete
You mention that these are sweetened with honey but there is no honey in the ingredients.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks for that! It was a typo =)Delete
Brilliant! Love this recipe.ReplyDelete
do you know if these freeze well?ReplyDeleteReplies
I have not tried! Please let me know if you try it. =)Delete

Ps e ould like to make v right now hopfully you can get back to me soon today thank you so muchReplyDeleteReplies
I apologize for not getting back to you. I missed your comment! I hope these turned out well for you if you tried them. I am sure you can use coconut milk instead. When i substitute, I just use the closest thing to it =)Delete

As the sheer volume of data that needs to be managed increases, so, too, does the opportunity to lose it. The problem, of course, is that most IT organizations still treat backup and archiving of their data as an event rather than something that needs to be managed on an ongoing basis.
Eventually, however, even the most lax IT organization will need to come to grips with the new realities of data management, especially in the coming era of Big Data.
Jeff Pederson, manager of data recovery operations for Kroll Ontrack, a provider of backup and archiving software and services, has outlined the 10 most common ways IT organizations lose data, starting with the simple fact that they fail to take backup seriously and then not keep current with the latest technological advances.
Unfortunately, Pederson concedes that such advice all too often falls on deaf ears until something catastrophic actually happens. The good news is that as more IT organizations confront larger data management issues being brought on by the rise of cloud computing, virtualization and Big Data, more of them are addressing backup and archiving issues as part of the process. In addition, IT organizations are confronting a maze of compliance issues that all assume there is some form of backup and archiving in place. And just to make matters even more interesting, users are more mobile than ever, which means the opportunity to lose data is multiplying with each passing day.
The trouble is that, right now, the technologies that most IT organizations have in place today can't keep pace with the volume of data, resulting in backup windows that exceed 24 hours. On top of that, many IT organizations are confused about the difference between backup and archiving, which, more often than not, leads to extended recovery times when looking for a particular piece of data.
The end result is that many IT organizations are starting to recognize that they need to prioritize what data is being backed up when based on its value to the business, which now includes any fines that might be levied in the event the business can't produce certain data.
Sometimes it takes the magnitude of constitutional crisis to get any organization to address long-standing issues that most people would rather ignore. From an IT perspective, the backup and archiving crisis is now upon us, so it's no longer if backup and archiving is about to become a problem, but rather when.

The pop diva is in the running for a hot seat on the show according to Cowell's best friend Sinitta who spilled the beans to the Daily Mail.
There have been many big names rumoured to be in the pipeline to take their place next to the pop mogul on his new American show.
The biggest buzz over who will be crowned as a judge has come from the rumours surrounding Cheryl Cole. The Girls Aloud singer, since the beginning of the year, has been at the centre of the X Factor speculation.
But even though Cat Deeley may have been knocked from the running; it seems Cheryl now faces major competition from an equally big name as hers – Mariah Carey.
This latest gossip came after Sinitta accidently let the cat out of the bag. Speaking to the Daily Mail she said: 'It's amazing that so many people want to do it…it's huge.'
'Everybody is up for it, Mariah…ok I'm not saying anymore!'
It's clear the Hero singer would be a better hit with audiences in America than Geordie Cheryl – many Americans don't even understand her accent.
However since her split from love cheat Ashley, Cheryl has been snapped house-hunting in LA in the same neighbourhood as Mr Cowell. She has also had massive support from big US music names such as Jay-Z, Will.I.Am and Rihanna.
Let the battle of the pop divas commence…

With the release of Ruby on Rails 4.1 we've seen a number of cool addition to the framework. One of these additions is known as Active Record Enums. Active Record Enums provide a lightweight alternative to using status flags or look-up tables. In this article we will show you how to implement Active Record Enums in your Ruby on Rails Application.
To get started, we will first need to create a model. In our example we will create a simple model called
Order which will represent an order you might find on an eCommerce site or in a store. To keep things simple this order model only has 5 fields: subtotal, tax, shipping, total, and status. Order status can be one of Cancelled, In Progress, Completed, or Invoiced. Lets create this model now. Open up a terminal and create this model in a new rails application.
Terminal Commands:
rails g model Order subtotal:decimal{11,2} tax:decimal{11,2} shipping:decimal{11,2} status:integer
Before we run a db:migrate, it's a good idea to add in a default value for status. Open up your migration file and modify it so that it looks like the code listed below.
class CreateOrders < ActiveRecord::Migration
def change
create_table :orders do |t|
t.decimal :subtotal, precision: 11, scale: 2
t.decimal :tax, precision: 11, scale: 2
t.decimal :shipping, precision: 11, scale: 2
t.decimal :total, precision: 11, scale: 2
t.integer :status, default: 1
Now let's run a
rake db:migrate to update the database with our new migration.
Terminal Commands:
rake db:migrate
Great, now that we have the model, let's add a bit of seed data so that we can play around without having to create new orders. Open up your
seeds.rb file and add in the code listed below.
Order.create!( id: 1, subtotal: 12.00, tax: 0.00, shipping: 10.00, total: 22.00, status: 3)
Order.create!( id: 2, subtotal: 102.00, tax: 0.00, shipping: 22.00, total: 124.00, status: 2)
Order.create!( id: 3, subtotal: 100.00, tax: 7.00, shipping: 10.00, total: 117.00, status: 2)
Now let's run a
rake db:seed in order to add the seed data to our database.
Terminal Commands:
rake db:seed
Excellent! Now open up your
Order model and modify it so that it looks like the code listed below.
class Order < ActiveRecord::Base
validates :subtotal, presence: true
validates :tax, presence: true
validates :shipping, presence: true
validates :total, presence: true
enum status: [ :cancelled, :in_progress, :completed, :invoiced ]
Of note in the above code is the
enum status: line. This tells rails that we wish to use the status field as an enum. Now lets open up the
rails console to play around a bit. Remember that you can exit the rails console at any time by typing
Terminal Commands:
rails c
Let's start with the basics. First, you can get an order's status by using
o = order.first
o.status #=> "invoiced"
You can also
humanize the result to pretty it up:
o.status.humanize #=> "Invoiced"
You can easily check to see if the order matches a certain status:
o.invoiced? #=> true
Finally, you can quickly set a new status:
o.completed! #=> Sets the order's status to "completed"
o.status #=> "completed"
We can also get a list of all statuses:
Order.statuses #=> {"cancelled"=>0, "in_progress"=>1, "completed"=>2, "invoiced"=>3}
You'll notice that each status has a corresponding number. These can be customize as I'll demonstrate later.
How do we utilize status in our views? Luckily it's pretty easy. Exit the Rails console and run the command below to create an orders controller.
Terminal Commands:
rails g controller Orders index edit update
Now open up your routes file and modify it so that it looks like the code listed below.
Rails.application.routes.draw do
resources :orders
root to: "orders#index"
Now open up your orders controller and modify it so that it looks like the code listed below.
class OrdersController < ApplicationController
def index
@orders = Order.all
def edit
@order = Order.find(params[:id])
@statuses = Order.statuses
def update
@order = Order.find(params[:id])
@statuses = Order.statuses
if @order.update_attributes(order_params)
redirect_to orders_path, notice: "The order has been created."
render "edit"
def order_params
params.require(:order).permit(:subtotal, :tax, :shipping, :total, :status)
Great! This is pretty much standard stuff, with the exception of the
@statuses = Order.statuses line. This line of code collects the available statuses for use in a select box. Now let's quickly add bootstrap to our application to beautify things a bit. Open up your application layout and modify it so that it looks like the code listed below.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag 'application', media: 'all', 'data-turbolinks-track' => true %>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag "http://yandex.st/bootstrap/3.1.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag 'application', 'data-turbolinks-track' => true %>
<%= csrf_meta_tags %>
<%= yield %>
Great! Now let's create our
index view for orders. Open up the index view for orders and modify it so that it looks like the code listed below.

Order No
Order Status

<% @orders.each do |order| %>
<%= order.id %>
<%= number_to_currency order.subtotal %>
<%= number_to_currency order.tax %>
<%= number_to_currency order.shipping %>
<%= number_to_currency order.total %>
<%= order.status.humanize %>
<%= link_to "Edit", edit_order_path(order), class: "btn btn-primary" %>
<% end %>
You'll notice the line calling order.status.humanize. This line displays the order status in human format (English in this example).
Now let's add code to our
edit view for orders. Open up the edit view for orders and modify it so that it looks like the code listed below.

Editing Order No <%= @order.id %>

<% if @order.errors.any? %>

<%= pluralize(@user.errors.count, "error")%>
prohibited this user from being saved:
<%= @order.errors.full_messages.each do |message| %>

<%= message %>

<% end %>
<% end %>
<%= form_for @order do |f| %>

<%= f.label :subtotal, class: "control-label" %>
<%= f.number_field :subtotal, class: "form-control" %>

<%= f.label :tax %>
<%= f.number_field :tax, class: "form-control" %>

<%= f.label :shipping %>
<%= f.number_field :shipping, class: "form-control" %>

<%= f.label :total %>
<%= f.number_field :total, class: "form-control" %>

<%= f.label :status %>
<%= f.select :status, options_for_select(@statuses.collect { |s| [s[0].humanize, s[0]] }, selected: @order.status), {} , class: "form-control" %>

<%= f.submit "Save", class: "btn btn-primary" %>
<% end %>
Of particular interest here is the line for creating the select box. We take the statuses hash, humanize it, and put it in the select box. The default value is merely set to the order status. if you were to view the status, you'd notice that the corresponding values are the actual status strings rather than integers.
Now if you start a
rails server and navigate to http://localhost:3000 you'll see that you can quickly edit orders. Change statuses, etc.
A couple of additional notes:
- If you want to specify the integer that each status belongs to, you can easily do so by modifying the enum line of your model so that it looks something like this:
enum status: { cancelled: 0, in_progress: 1, completed: 2, invoiced: 3 }.
- Avoid using the same enum value names inside the same class, even in different enums.
That's it! Thanks for reading!

Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello's wedding may happen sooner than we think! Despite news earlier this year that they put off their wedding due to their insanely hectic schedules (she's promoting both her ABC sitcom Modern Family and her movie Hot Pursuit, while he's gearing up for a major press tour for Magic Mike XXL), now they're finding time to celebrate their engagement and upcoming nuptials!
The smoking hot duo had an engagement party on Friday at Soho House in West Hollywood. Vergara donned a red dress for the occasion, while her True Blood alum fiancé wore a black button down (and an "I'm the luckiest guy in the world" smile). The intimate affair was hosted by their friend Barry Peele, and attended by close friends and family including Vergara's son Manolo and none other than the Terminator himself, former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Not only did he go to the party, he also gave a toast for the couple of ten months! Vergara's son shared a photo of the attendees listening to the presumably fascinating speech (below), and added a cute caption. "Congratulations to these two ugly people," he wrote with the Instagram. "It's so sad, but luckily they have me to aspire to, physically. #Congration #YouDoneIt #HappiestCoupleEver #EngagementParty #PapaJoeVolume2 #TerminatorGaveASpeech #HostedByBarryPeele."
The party capped off a week of excitement for Vergara and Manganiello — a few days before, he stood by her side as she got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. And during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live, Vergara confirmed that she'll marry her beau sometime this year. Sounds like they have even more celebrating in their future!

Life is sweet for the tennis pro with the launch of Sugarpova, her new candy line.
You've always had a sweet tooth – and now you have created Sugarpova, a premium candy line. What are some of your favourite types of candy?
As a child, I was awarded a Chupa Chups lollipop after a good practice, and that consideration of candy as the ultimate reward has never gone away for me. I am a self-confessed sweet tooth, but as an athlete, I try to keep it in moderation and go for something lighter like gummie candies. My very favourite flavour of Sugarpova is Quirky – a rainbow toffee with a creamy marshmallow centre. They are amazing.
You're involved in all aspects of the business. From conception to product testing, why was it important for you to launch something from scratch?
I think consumers and shoppers are very bright, and they can tell when something feels authentic. For me, I have approached the candy business the same way that I have approached my tennis career. I don't want to do something unless I am going to give it 100 per cent of my dedication and drive. For Sugarpova, that means being there for all the major moments, start to finish, and being an active part of every decision made.
What has it been like balancing a growing business alongside your tennis career?
It's really rewarding. I have worked alongside so many well-established brands for so long in an ambassador-like capacity. It's so fulfilling to own something and watch it grow from the ground up. The balance is forever a work in progress, but the long flights associated with my tennis career give me lots of opportunities to focus on business needs. I feel very fortunate to be able to pursue both passions.
How did the name 'Sugarpova' come about?
It was a very organic process, and, happily my last name lent itself to this venture perfectly.
The candy designs are so quirky and bright - where does your inspiration come from?
I am extremely inspired by fashion and design. The design of the candy and packaging were just as important to me as the taste. The market is saturated with candies that feel corporate and not as personal. The bright, happy Sugarpova designs are a reflection of both my personality and what I think candy should be.
A portion of proceeds from the business is going to the Maria Sharapova Foundation. Could you tell us more about the foundation?
Of course. Given my Russian heritage, I am passionate about helping those still feeling the effects of Chernobyl. I am also a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and they were dedicated enough to partner with my foundation to launch a new scholarship program for students in the Chernobyl-affected areas of Belarus.
What's on the agenda for you this year, on and off court?
In addition to my tennis schedule, and other brand engagements, it's going to be a huge year for Sugarpova. We are expanding rapidly on the global level, kicking off with our first global launch in Australia. We will be moving into Colette in Paris, Selfridges in London, and to other top retailers across Europe and Asia. The candy business is very sweet!
Sugarpova is available at David Jones.

"Mitt rum i ditt hjärta" is utterly deep melancholic synth ballad changing tempo few times and feeling experimental, maybe even as an improvisation in the end. "Lyckligare nu" is on the other hand starts with haunting rock'n'roll verse switching to a big melodic chorus. Linnea has alreadyso performed her latest single "Alice".

Let's Talk About Film: Iron Man 3
Before the Do You Know What I Mean? Superhero Trivia Special, I definitely did not consider myself to be an expert on superhero films. After studying up, I may know a little more about them now, but I'm still quite the novice. The first Marvel film I ever saw was last year's The Avengers. Since then I've taken a look at Captain America and the first Iron Man film. But that doesn't really put me in the position to comment with any authority on the film that I saw yesterday – Iron Man 3.
If you're going to write about the third film in a specific franchise [well, fourth, if you consider The Avengers to be a part of the overall story], then I think that you should definitely have a decent knowledge of the universe in which it exists. I don't have this background knowledge. Prior to seeing Iron Man 3 I didn't feel as if I knew Tony Stark. But now I do.
If anything, Iron Man 3 is a complex exploration of Stark's character. Yes, it's also a clever and funny film, with plenty of action. But it also spends a good amount of time dealing with who Tony is as a person, and how he's coping after the events that took place in The Avengers [mild spoiler: not well].
I thoroughly enjoyed the film. Like always, I found that a few of the SFX action sequences went on a bit too long – but that's more of a comment on my tastes than the film itself. And, as I've come to learn with all Marvel films, it is well worth staying in the cinema until the very end. The post-credits sequence was simple, yet satisfying, and it tied in very well with the film's narrative device.
That said, I'm not the right person to comment on whether or not this was a brilliant Marvel film. From a non-fan's perspective, it was well worth watching. As for what the experts think, well, I'll leave it up to them.

Man, what a fudge show. I am so frustrated right now.
So, for the people who asked why none of the admins/mods replied while the site was out: when the site gets this way, none of the "EB Team" users are even able to log in to the discussion forum part of the site. We just get an error. So even if there was anything to say, we're not even able to do it. Needless to say I'm pretty pissed about all of this. There's literally one guy who has the ability to refresh this site when it gets shitty like that, and he's less and less responsive. I've been preaching about the need to enable more people to have that ability. It's just drymounting IT 101, for Christ's sake. But anytime this happens, as soon as the site comes back up, those talks just completely die, and we're back to square one again the next time it turns to fudge. If the new site development is going to continue to drag on like this, the least the site board can do is set up a better solution for righting the ship when this stuff happens. Anything less than that is disrespecting of all the users who contributed, and all the people who spend countless hours laboring over making this place the best it can be.
Disclaimer: this is my opinion and not some statement from the site. I'm just pissed.
