Mental Health is Where Compassion and Commerce Meet
Dr. Kevin Smith, CEO of St. Joseph's Healthcare Hamilton and St. Joseph's Health System spoke during the 2014 Hamilton Economic Summit about changing the conversation of mental illness and substance abuse and its impact on our community and economy.
1 in 5 Canadians live each day with some form of mental illness – whether clinically diagnosed or not. Although the correlation might not be easy to spot on the surface, this statistic poses significant impact on the stability of our region's economy.
Throughout his talk, Dr. Smith spoke about the perception of seeking treatment for mental illness and addiction versus the perception of seeking treatment for cancer. When a person feels stigmatization regarding their ailment, as many people unfortunately do, they are less likely to seek out treatment for fear of their current or future employer finding out.
Dr. Smith referenced a World Health Organization statistic that predicts that by 2030 mental health will be the number one presenting problem in the world; the implication of this on the workforce and economy will cost billions of dollars in lost revenue for employers and organizations worldwide.
"Mental health is where compassion and commerce meet," includes Dr. Smith, who continues on to speak about the new St. Joseph's Healthcare Hamilton, Margaret and Charles Centre for Integrated Healthcare or also referred to as the West 5th Campus.
The new $1 billion campus integrates mental health and addictions treatment, medical and diagnostic outpatient clinics, and an innovative research facility resulting in a centre that is an anchor for innovation and medical expertise in Hamilton. Dr. Smith says that developing and promoting a local life sciences cluster is "profoundly important."

The Department of Defense announced 21 new defense contracts worth $2.96 billion million in aggregate on Thursday. Much of the funds awarded went to small, federally defined "small businesses" involved in the sale of fire and emergency services equipment to the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps -- but there were a few winners among larger, publicly traded firms. For example:
- Valero Energy's (NYSE:VLO) Marketing and Supply subsidiary won a sizable economic-price-adjustment, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity, foreign military sales contract to supply the Israeli military with aviation turbine fuel. Worth up to $330.8 million in value, this one-year supply contract should be fulfilled by Nov. 30, 2014.
- A similar supply contract was awarded to Chevron (NYSE:CVX). Worth a maximum of $29.8 million, this fixed-price with economic-price-adjustment, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract is also for the supply of aviation turbine fuel, but to the U.S. Defense Logistics Agency Energy as buyer. Performance should wrap up by Dec. 31, 2013.
- Defense contractor Exelis (UNKNOWN:XLS.DL) was awarded a $23.3 million contract modification to extend Launch and Test Range System support functions in the Eastern and Western (space launch) Range by three months, i.e., through Jan. 31, 2014.
- Honeywell International (NYSE:HON) won a $19.1 million fixed-price with economic-price-adjustment contract to provide technical, engineering, and logistical support services, plus materials necessary to overhaul and repair T-55 helicopter engines at the Corpus Christi Army Depot.
- Pall's (UNKNOWN:PLL.DL) Aeropower division won a $16.9 million sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to supply the U.S. Army with particle separators by Oct. 31, 2017 .
- Navistar won a $7.3 million cost-plus-fixed-fee contract to assist with upgrades on its Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) MaxxPro M1235A3 Dash armored vehicles.

Hunters Packs the House in Jacksonville!
Last week, we had a chance to check out a very hip Indie Rock band called Hunters based out of Brooklyn, New York and touring in support of their new EP. I got the assignment to review and photograph the up and coming punk rockers while they were touring through Jacksonville. The location was Jack Rabbits, a downtown club, on a very hot muggy day. It was apparent that sweat was guaranteed tonight.
I arrived a few minutes early to set up, and the band soon followed in two vans, unloaded everything and went next door for a quick dinner before the show. The manager of Jack Rabbits was also the engineer of the soundboard, and was in great spirits, very excited about this particular show.
After the two opening bands, Queen Beef and Hank and Cupcakes had finished their high energy sets, the lights went out, and Hunters took the stage. The crowd was packed like sardines in this cool little Jacksonville club but despite the heat no one cared. They were all fired up and ready to see this energetic quartet, and you could tell right away that dancing was definitely gonna be happening this night!
We could instantly tell that this band was the real deal, as the crowd instantly came alive when they played their first song. The music was cool enough to keep everyone engaged and listening for the entire set, unlike some other bands that burn out after a couple songs.
The on-stage fog machine filled the concert hall cranking out cool air to the crowd, while covering the stage with a slick mist. The band's talented lead singer, Isabel Almieda was instantly recognized by her luscious pink hair the moment she took the stage. She displayed a very smooth voice, and was a hit to everyone who watched her dance across the stage. She was joined by her primary collaborator Derek Watson, a hot shot lead guitarist with cool spiked hair.
This Brooklyn Indie rockers played a smart set, with three fast-paced songs right off the bat, to the delight of the crowd. Isabel was in complete control of the timing of the band and she had the crowd in the palm of her hand; at any moment, she had us in a frenzy, other times she slowed the pace, and the entire time, displaying her wonderful voice that connected to everybody in the room.
It wasn't long before fans of the opening bands were captivated by her voice and they were quickly in the mix dancing to the beats of Hunters! The band played for 50 minutes and had everyone sweating for more.
Watson played his guitar like a seasoned pro and was a great entertainer, even playing upside down with his feet in the air at one point. The fast-paced finger work for this type of music isn't easy for most guitarists, but he handled the show with grace, never himself to override his partners in the band and staying in perfect sync with the structure of the songs. Bassist Tommy played every solid note, without cheating the songs with sloppy work providing a cool vibe for everyone which was a pleasant relief from the doom and gloom bands that scream at you.
All the songs were handpicked by the band, and when record labels allow you to have that control it almost guarantees a better sound and show. The songs were presented in a way that brought attention to every song – great catchy hooks that kept everyone in attendance dancing. They finished their set to a very happy crowd and the fans were very excited when the band came out to hang with them after the show.
We reporters had a chance to talk to the band backstage, as they were heading for Orlando, Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit and other big time towns.
We got our photo's taken with the band, a nice wrap to a great night of rock at a place called Jack Rabbits – where the locals and the newbies go to rock!
This band is on my "TO SEE AGAIN LIST, and we'll be back again when "Hunters" returns to town.
Thanks to "Hunters" management team, record label, and band members for a great show, and we can't wait for the new album in 2014! And Jack Rabbits of Jacksonville for always and for many years, putting North Florida on the map as the place to see cool Indie bands!
Click links for more band photo's – Hunters Concert Pictures – and of course, Like us on Facebook!
Until then, stay cool !
Happy Jack

According to Tree Planet, the company in charge of the event, TVXQ's fans are planning to plant trees with red leaves, such as red apricot blossom trees, in the Yeoido region in honor of the color that signifies TVXQ and their fandom.
Fans created a homepage for the event on the 6th and plan to collect five million Won for the event.
The forest will be planted in November, and a QR code will be set up in the entrance that will include a list of fans who participated in the event.
Fans of nine other teams have participated in 'forest projects' and the recipients include 2NE1, Shinhwa, Girls' Generation's Tiffany and INFINITE.
Currently, the project has collected 5.8 million Won, an amount that surpasses its original goal.

Join us on 17 – 18 September for a free crime trail around Norwich – part of Noirwich Crime Writing Festival. Simply pick up your map and instructions at the Forum to start the adventure! In this blog piece, it's creator, Isabelle King, explains a bit about the story of the trail and how to get involved.
Queen Elizabeth I is visiting Norwich and expects a nice, expensive gift for her arrival. The Mayor of Norwich has the perfect present ready: a magnificent silver cup and some golden coins, fit for a Queen!
But what's this? The cup and coins appear to be missing…someone must have stolen them! What pesky vagabond would do such a thing?
The Mayor of Norwich charges you, families, with the task of solving the crime, discovering the robber and retrieving the cup and coins….before the Queen arrives! All good detectives win a prize!
It's very exciting to be organising this trail in collaboration with Writers' Centre Norwich. Tudor Norwich sets the scene for an atmospheric 'whodunnit' adventure. The story is also based on a real historical event as Queen Elizabeth 1st did, indeed, visit Norwich in 1578 and expected nothing less than a glorious gift and a wonderful time.
The trail starts at the Forum, where you can pick up your map and instructions. Follow the map throughout the city centre which will direct you to clues displayed in shop windows. Piece together the clues which will spell out the name of the culprit – oh, and lead the way to where they have hidden the Queen's lovely gift! Specific instructions will be on the map.
The trail is timed at roughly 30 minutes but, of course, you can walk it at your own pace.
Rumour has it that, at the end of the trail, you will receive a certificate along with a fabulous selfie opportunity and a tasty treat. You may even find out some information about the robber in question – someone well known to Norwich!
Well, now, I think I've told you all that can possibly be revealed without giving the game away. All that's left to be said is that, although the historical characters featured in the trail are real, the crime is fictional; made up for fun!
I do very much hope you enjoy the trail!
Something sinister is afoot in the city! Pick up the first of your crime-mystery clues at The Forum and see if you can follow the city-centre trail to crack the case. Suitable for 5 – 8 year olds, takes roughly 30 mins to complete.

History is full of beautiful lessons and although we are involved in forging a new world driven home by pin sharp technology and data, our national past has case studies we should ponder upon. Consumer technology and bring your own device (BYOD) policies are at the sharp end of CIO debate at present. At the heart of the BYOD debate is whether organisations will benefit from being released from procuring and possibly supporting a hardware estate.
CIOs want to be strategic and for their time to be consumed by improving the lot of customers and employees through transformational technology, so an exit from the drudgery of dealing with channels sounds good. But as we all know, you don't just buy a hardware estate, you buy into a host of support packages, which in your mind, are designed to make the organisation as efficient and reliable as possible for your workforce and customers. But if you relinquish control of the hardware you more than likely pull the support out of the technology estate too with a dirty great claw hammer.
Intuitive as consumer devices are, they are still technologically complex and will at times come unstuck. Where will the support come from for your workforce then? If your department is no longer operating a service desk, or one to self-owned tablet devices, the workforce will have to source its own support mechanism. But if you have no control on which devices they buy, you may also have no control as to whom they buy support from. Enter the middle-man. Now there are many reputable and excellent support operators out there, but as consumerisation grows, the market for support will flourish and so too is the likelihood of lower quality offerings and even undesirable entrants to the market.
Here history has examples for us. In the early part of the industrial revolution key parts of the manufacturing process were completed not in the satanic mills of our Jerusalem, but at home by contractors you might say. Nail making was a typical example where the final finished product was created in the small forges craftsmen had in their midlands homes. Wages and conditions were poor with many nail makers suffered starvation. Relationships between the workers and organisations were poor and a number of strikes in Dudley and Birmingham are documented. Adding to this fervour were the Foggers, middlemen that sold raw materials to nail makers on unsustainable credit, then sold the finished product at a fraudulent lower price in a relationship that kept the nail makers poor.
In time this unsustainable relationship led in a small way to the decline of British manufacturing. Proponents of BYOD allude to how mechanics and plumbers bring their own tools. But a mechanics socket set doesn't extract personal data and a plumber's pipe cutter wears out and is replaced, these are not tools that need constant supervision. When these two highly skilled individuals do need and use technological tools, they as more often than not leased. A small garage will lease a diagnostics system from the technology provider in a model closer to cloud computing than it is to BYOD.
There are already many in the business world wondering if the workforce has to take responsibility for its technology supply and support, will that decrease the workforce's motivation to take responsibility for the organisation and its outcomes?
Using your own devices for some level of work related activity has been with us since the PC revolution and CIOs may be better rewarded enabling a use your own device to enable flexibility as a workforce motivator. Other CIOs have told me that offering staff the opportunity to keep a tablet for personal use after it is replaced in a refresh programme has changed behaviour and lowered maintenance costs.
History shows that often the best results come when the workforce feel supported and provided for. Giving them the best tools and the support required allows them to focus on what we hire them to do, be productive, innovate and to deliver results. BYOD could allow unscrupulous Foggers into your enterprise.

Killstreak Reward! The RC-XD in Call of Duty: Black Ops is a remote controlled bomb so fun to use that it's no surprise the government's been drooling over the combat potential of bots like the new iRobot 110 IRL.
Like the RC-XD, the backpack-bot is agile, quick and tough with the ability to survive 15-foot drops and a whole lot of banging around. The bot is primarily designed for surveillance and comes equipped with four built-in cameras. The idea, as you'll see in the video above, is that a soldier will toss one of these boys into unknown or unsurveyable territory, and that the bot will do the work of peeking around corners or monitoring the action.
Unfortunately, these bots aren't being marketed as bombs—YET. But according the the tech-specs [PDF], it's equipped for destructive payloads up to a half pound. That's enough for a big boom, or at least enough to self-destruct when the 6-10 hours of battery life is up. [iRobot via Wired]

I have made these pants that I am pointing to on this pattern. This is pattern by Tina Givens. I saw this pattern and I wanted it. It finally went on sale at Fabric.com and I bought it. What drew me to it is the loose fit of the legs. I just can not wear anything that is tight-fitting. If you look closely at the outer side of the leg that is straight you can see some tucks at the bottom. I like that look.
I cut out the two pattern pieces that the pattern called for. Two pieces can't be too bad, right? Then following the instructions I proceeded to sew the garment together. I did follow the instructions………..until it came to finishing the bottom of the legs. That is it! I have followed the instructions as much as I can. I have to do my own thing now.
Several years ago I had a Bruda pattern and I like the way the bottom of the legs were finished. There were 'darts' at the bottom making the bottom of the legs a bit more narrow. I wanted to give that a try.
As you can see in this picture I drew one line and it made the dart too big so I drew the second line that was closer in.
I used my ruler to make the dart 6 inches long and 2 inches wide at the bottom of the leg. Then I pivoted the ruler over to the edge of the pant leg.
I set my machine to a basting stitch to see if I would be pleased with the outcome. I chose to do a basting stitch because I did not want to take out stitches that were any closer together if I did not like it. Let me tell you that I was very pleased. In this next picture the pant leg on your right is the one with the darts at the bottom of the leg. The other one is just a straight leg that is unfinished at the bottom.
I hope that you are able to see a bit of the difference. I am doing the best that I can taking pictures in a mirror. I do not have someone available to assist me with taking pictures. I proceeded to put the darts in the bottom of the other leg. The instructions in the pattern calls for the bottom of the leg to be finished with biased binding. Ummmmm, no. I want a 'cuff' at the bottom. I purchased a pair of linen pants/trousers that has a cuff at the bottom of the legs and I like the effect. I can make a 'cuff'…………I think.
Looks like I can. The pant leg on your right hand side not only has the darts but the bottom is finished with a cuff. The pant leg on your left hand side is unfinished with the darts present.
I put the cuff on the other leg. It would look too odd without it wouldn't it?
This is a picture of the completed pants. Here is another view.
I am trying to help you to be able to see the construction and the way that the pants/trousers hang. My husband is taking the photos and he is making me laugh so much.
In my next blog posts I will be showing how I made this tunic including the dyeing of it. Yes, from the very start to the finish. The parrot applique that you see is hand painted and embellished by my mother, Mary.

By Chinwe Ugwu
There is a Nigerian saying that if you do not go under the belly of an elephant, you can never know that it has a flat tummy. Similarly, many public office holders especially politicians are often judged based on the outer appearance.
One of the most talked about governors in the present dispensation is the number one citizen of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello. Whatever is happening in Kogi State today is divinely designed considering the circumstances that threw up Bello as the chief executive of the Confluence state.
In spite of the ill-feelings expressed in some quarters by some politicians in the state, Bello became governor and one year and eight months down the line, there has been a mix bag of reactions from both Kogites and other Nigerians on the performance of Bello. How has Governor Bello fared since February 27, 2016 when he assumed office in the Brick House? Has he delivered on his campaign promises?
One issue that causes divisions in a state is lopsided appointments. But Governor Bello being very conscious of the diverse nature of Kogi and the way he emerged as governor, he set out to unify the state. Hence, he brought in equity, fairness, justice and objectivity to bear on every action he took especially as regards the appointment of people into positions of authority.
Bello defied the status quo and for the first time in the history of the state, appointed a Chief of Staff from outside of his ethnic group. None of his predecessors was that generous and tolerant of other parts of the state but Bello did that and even including some of his closest aides. However, Governor Bello incurred the wrath of some so-called kingmakers in the state who were offended with the appointment of more young men and women into government positions. They had expected him to maintain the old order.
It is a fact that Governor Bello has received more insults and curses than any other governor for non-payment of salaries for a number of months. But most of these critics never cared to dig into the remote causes of why the governor has been hit by the misfortune of owed salaries. Many of the critics do so out of ignorance, while others indulge in it for mischief purposes and others engaged in it just to score a political point.
The problem of salary issues in Kogi State predates the Governor Bello administration and in fact has been associated with the state since 1999. It is axiomatic that the administrations of former governors Alhaji Ibrahim Idris and Capt. Idris Wada actually caused the salary problem being experienced today. These two administrations were so reckless financially that they left a huge salary debts profile for the state.
Hence, when Governor Yahaya Bello took over the mantle of leadership in 2016, he was unlucky to have inherited a huge debt of non-payment of salaries. There was an over bloated wage bill for over 80,000 civil servants; and this means both state and local government workers. Besides, as it was the case with the previous administration, there was an unimaginable massive and reckless corruption in the Kogi State Pension Board. In an attempt to redress the heist that was perpetrated in the previous years, Governor Bello initiated a screening exercise, whose revelation was mind boggling. It was clear that the previous administration had over employed and could not manage the over bloated workforce thereby leaving behind accumulated salaries and allowances. Governor Bello became the fall guy of the wickedness and mismanagement of the past.
Consequently, he inaugurated a screening committee, whose sole aim was to cleanse the rot left behind by the previous administrations. These are facts that most critics of this administration have failed to understand. Of course, some of them are unaware that Kogi is one among 25 other states that are faced with the challenge of workers' salaries. Therefore, it is not an issue that is peculiar to the state. Despite these obvious bulwarks placed by previous administrations, Bello with the assistance of bailout and Paris club refunds as published in national dailies and on the state government's website recently, has made significant improvement and advancement in the settlement of salaries and pensions.
It is curious that people have soon forgotten that before the coming in of Governor Bello, Lokoja, the capital city of Kogi State was an eyesore and for those who passed through the city they can attest to the fact that Bello has made tremendous efforts to give the capital a facelift and more befitting status. The State Sanitation Board had embarked on an indefinite strike as a result of non-payment of salaries thereby throwing the entire city into humongous heap of refuse. Of course, it was a contributory factor to the outbreak of cholera epidemics in Lokoja metropolis and its environs. Consequently and unfortunately some lives were lost. This was due to the failures and inept leadership of Wada and his cohorts of underperforming aides. It was the arrival of Bello on the scene that brought some form of sanity. As soon as Governor Bello assumed office, he swung into action and reached an accord with the organised labour, who immediately called off the strike. In order to strengthen the understanding between government and the organised labour, the governor had on May Day donated two buses to the organised labour in the state in order to facilitate their labour activities in the state.
Buoyed by the need to boost the environmental condition of the state, the administration of Bello paid a counterpart fund to enlist the support of the Nigeria Erosion Watershed Management Project (NEWMAP) to assist in tackling the menace of erosion in some parts of the state. The effort has made the state to be among the 18 elite states in the country to benefit from the Federal Government and World Bank programme to protect the land from environmental degradation. Similarly, the governor embarked on the resuscitation of the Ekuku Dam in Agassa at Okene local government area with vigorous effort to ensure its completion aimed at boosting portable water supply to the entire central senatorial district of the state. The perpetual darkness that was the lot of Lokoja has since disappeared as the city has been electrified with solar-powered street lights, rehabilitation of township roads, cleaner and beautified environment, building of new state-of-the-art structures and renovation of Government House.
Similarly, the state government is doing all within its powers to fulfil its promise on capital projects such as roads, rural electrification, portable water for the rural communities, quality healthcare centers, free medical outreach, GYB model school projects and series of projects which are completed and some are ongoing. The communities in Dekina and Omala Local Government Areas where the two ex-governors hail from never had electricity until Governor Yahaya Bello came to their rescue to provide electricity to those communities.
One of the striking things Governor Bello has done since coming into office his critics have refused to acknowledge is the realignment of the state civil service. The workers verification committee, which was set up to determine the actual staff strength by fishing out ghost workers from the system, exposed the corruption and incredible atrocities committed by very senior civil servants in the state. Some of the bizarre revelations made by the verification committee was the discovery of ghost schools, fictitious schools and salaries were being paid to workers from such non-existent institutions. This exercise has therefore helped a great deal in sanitising the state civil service.
It is on record that Governor Bello is one of the few state chief executives in the present dispensation to grant full financial autonomy to the local governments. The implication is that the state government ceased deductions of local government allocation, a practice, which has been severally condemned by all and sundry.
The administration has also executed a lot of projects including the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with a foreign firm to revive and upgrade as well as expand the Organic Fertilizer Plant in Agbeji in Dekina Local Government Area of the state. Work has also resumed on the dualisation of Lokoja township roads up to Lokoja-Okene road as well as construction of the drainage system along the major road in the state capital which has eased the traffic flow in the confluence city.
Since the governor came on the scene, the Internally Generated Revenue profile of the state has been on the rise. This is largely due to the accountability, transparency and high level professionalisation brought to bear on the state Inland Revenue Services as well as other corrective measures adopted to block revenue leakages. In fact, the Chairman, Kogi State Inland Revenue Services (KGIRS), Alhaji Oseni Yakubu, said the ability of the Yahaya Bello administration to make the state conducive for businesses has been responsible for the growth of small and large businesses which taxes contributed to the increase in the state's IGR. He said "when we came on board, taxation in Kogi State was in a deplorable situation," adding that the situation was so bad that the Revenue Graph showed a flat.
Governor Bello has also done exceedingly well to contain the terrible security situation in the state prior to his resumption of duty. Before 2016, the state was the hub of all manners of crimes including armed robbery, kidnapping and a host of others. Bello has in less than two years rid the state of criminals and criminality. Today, residents of the state go to bed with their two eyes closed while commuters who passed through the state no longer go through the harrowing experience of being attacked by armed robbers or kidnappers.
In line with the APC's programme on job creation, Governor Bello has empowered 2,500 youths on various skills acquisition and vocational training programme, 100 Youths trained on ICT, 460 gainfully employed in Revenue board, 1600 presently undergoing recruitment into health sector, 1600 Vigilantes are gainfully employed, 100 forest guards are also employed, 500 recruitment of fresh teachers is ongoing and mega tourism development is already in pipeline and all these achievements recorded within the last 21 months can necessitate the potential industrialisation of Kogi State.
Similarly, Kogi State Social investment programme has empowered over 50,000 of Youths and women on Npower and Government Enterprises and Empowerment Programme (GEEP).
It is, therefore, not out of place to urge the good people of Kogi State to continue to support their youthful governor to accomplish his laudable plans.

The end of year is coming, and – if our representatives in Washington continue their shenanigans and political posturing at the edge of the fiscal cliff – it will bring major changes to small business tax laws. As a business owner what can you to protect your interests?
Here are five considerations:
1. Convert your C Corporation:
"Given the possible expiration of historically low tax rates, it may be worth considering converting a C corporation to an S Corporation or an LLC, since C corporations are subject to double taxation (at the corporate level and again at the shareholder level). Converting a C corporation to either an S corporation or an LLC eliminates double taxation, as profits are passed through the corporate level directly to the shareholders." (Duane Morris)
2. Beef up your workforce:
"Employers who act now may be able to claim an expanded tax credit for hiring certain qualified veterans. According to the IRS, both for-profit and tax-exempt employers may qualify to receive thousands of dollars through the expanded Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC) should they hire qualified veterans who begin work before January 1, 2013." (Poyner Spruill)
3. Stock up on equipment:
"If taxpayers are considering the purchase of Section 179 assets for their business, and computer software in particular, they should consider purchasing and placing those assets into service in 2012 to take advantage of the additional Section 179deduction amount." (Jackson Walker)
4. Consider a defined-value gift:
"If you wish to make substantial gifts of closely held business interests, [Family Limited Partnership] units or other difficult-to-value assets before year end, consider defined-value gifts. This strategy allows you to take advantage of the record-high exemption amount — which, as of this writing, is scheduled to expire at the end of the year — without the need for rushed valuations and without the fear of unintended tax consequences should the IRS challenge your gift tax values down the road." (Adler Pollock & Sheehan)
5. Write off bad debts:
"In the current economic climate, collecting receivables is often a lengthy, and sometimes unsuccessful, process. Remember that a deduction for bad debts is permitted for companies that use the accrual basis of accounting when the receivable is deemed to be totally or partially worthless. It may be prudent to maintain adequate records in support of failed collection attempts in the event the IRS challenges the deduction." (Duane Morris)

Watermelon Cake/
I saw this Watermelon Cake on pinterest, and thought I would take a stab at it (pun intended).
I went camping with my friends recently, and thought it would be a simple and easy camping dessert to make!
I picked up some Coconut shavings, berries, dried cranberries, and almonds / nuts for the toppings. You will need Cool Whip as well, If I wasn't camping I would have loved to try it with our ---> Coconut Whip Cream Recipe <--- YUM.
Cut both ends of the watermelon off. (I didn't have a proper knife while I was camping so I had to use a hardcore pocket knife. Definitely cut myself, whoops)
Slice into the watermelon skin and cut all the way down to the bottom, leave a few inches and cut another line parallel to the first. Cut through the top of the watermelon peel and wedge your knife in between the melon and the skin. (The first section of the peel will be the hardest, but the rest comes off so easily)
It had actually started to rain at this point, so I had to gather my watermelon project and set them inside for about 30 minutes and waited out the temperamental weather. HA, what can you do!
Pat dry your watermelon with a paper towel, and then cover the watermelon with your whip cream! Sprinkle with coconut, and spread evenly over the sides of the watermelon. Decorate with almonds, nuts, and berries!

Robin DeLuca (Lighting Designer) is a busy little stagehand/designer, jumping from the Wells Fargo Center to Diversified Stage to her active life in freelance lighting. She graduated from SSU in 2013 with a technical theatre degree and works hard to make that degree work for her. She is a regular designer at the Raven, at San Domenico School and for Cardinal Newman High School. When she finds time off, it is usually spent gaming.
Ingrid Emming (Stage Manager) began stage managing in 2007, for Cinnabar Theater's production of Cosi fan tutti. Since then she has stage managed for all the operas and most of the musicals at Cinnabar, including last season's Falstaff. She most recently stage managed for The Rocky Horror Show at 6th Street Playhouse. She has also worked on productions with Raven Performing Arts Theater, Pegasus Theater, Main Stage West, and Narrow Way Stage Company. She holds a Bachelor of Science from Colorado State University's Department of Design and Merchandising, and 2016 marks her 18th year of private professional practice specializing in architectural and interior design. She is delighted to be working with Cinnabar Theater again.
Wayne Hovey (Set Designer) has been working in the technical side of theater for more than 40 years, doing everything from backstage work to set, sound and lighting design and stage management. He has provided lighting design for more than 15 shows at Cinnabar, including Woody Guthrie's American Song, Shirley Valentine, La Cage aux Folles and Of Mice and Men.

Jim was also music director/actor in productions of Always…Patsy Cline, Hank Williams' Lost Highway, and Woody Guthrie's American Song. He portrayed George Jones in Stand By Your Man: The Tammy Wynette Story and was "The Man with the Guitar", the sound designer and the music director for a production of The Grapes of Wrath produced at 6th Street Playhouse. Jim was a founding member of Western Union Theatre Company and appeared in productions of True West, Blue Window, A Lie of the Mind, Reckless, and Better Days among others. He is a guitar, mandolin, and trombone player and a singer performing in many local bands over the years. He currently plays with local roots-rock band Stony Point, who have just released their second album, and also with the jump-swing band Miss Kitty and the Big Dogs. Jim has designed sound for many productions at Cinnabar including Of Mice and Men, Enchanted April, Heartbreak House, The Clean House, Philadelphia Story and We [Heart] U, Nosferatu. He is most grateful to once again be offered the opportunity to work with such a fine director, a stellar actor, and top production crew.
Skipper Skeoch (Costume Designer) is very excited to be back at Cinnabar, after costuming The Creature. Recently Skipper has been the resident costume designer for Napa Valley College, designing productions of Sweeney Todd, Much Ado About Nothing, Taming of the Shrew, Lydia and Kalos Kai Agathos to name a few. In addition Skipper had the pleasure of designing the last three of Reduced Shakespeare's premiere productions: Christmas Abridged, Comedy Abridged and most recently Shakespeare's Long Lost First Play Abridged. Other credits include work with the Magic Theater, South Coast Repertory, Sonoma County Repertory, Sacramento Theater Company, and Summer Repertory Theater in Santa Rosa.
Haley Walker is living a rather binary life. At work (she manages a trendy New York restaurant), she's in charge and firing on all cylinders. But at home in her apartment (where all the action in Bad Dates takes place), things are quite a bit more chaotic. The bed is unmade, dresser drawers are half open with clothes spilling out, her vanity is a mess and there are shoes everywhere: on the bed, under the bed, in boxes and hampers. Everywhere. Her life is laid out for us to see. Almost nothing is hidden.
In this insightful and hilarious comedy, playwright Teresa Rebeck has created a character who is open and loving and hospitable, one who demolishes the theatrical fourth wall, drawing the audience deep into her world—so much so that the audience feels open to answer back to her not-so-rhetorical questions, and it doesn't feel the slightest bit wrong. As Haley, the excellent Jennifer King treats the audience with the same familiarity and friendliness that she offers to her friends and family members—who remain offstage and unseen, for this is a solo performance.
After a long period of singleness, when she was laser-focused on her job, Haley has decided to come out of her social shell and put herself back into the romantic swing of things. As we watch her choose outfits for a series of the titular bad dates, one can't help but think that Rebeck intended the shoes and clothes to be a metaphor for the many roles a person plays in their life. Who is Haley now? Mother? Restaurant manager? Lover? All these and more? She certainly has the shoe wardrobe for it.
Regardless of the underlying themes, the most important thing happening on stage is the connection between character and audience. There really is no fourth wall here, only a mostly one-sided conversation that is true enough to be both funny and touching. As Haley, Jennifer King is a perfect choice. She imbues the character, a sassy thing from south Texas, with tremendous heart and palpable sincerity. Though I think King could have milked even bigger laughs from the packed house at Cinnabar Theater by allowing a few of the setups to breathe a bit before she hit the punch line, that shouldn't in the slightest keep you from making the trip to Petaluma, for everything about this production is top notch.
The set by Cinnabar regular Wayne Hovey is marvelous. It's capacious enough to allow King the space she needs but cramped and chaotic enough to lay bare the tumult in Haley's life. Lighting by newcomer Robin DeLuca is lovely: both bold and delicate in just the right balance. Music and sound design—a collaboration between sound designer Jim Peterson and director Molly Noble—sets the appropriate mood and even reveals character. As director, Noble deserves significant praise for this production, bringing all elements together in a seamless and entertaining whole.
Bad Dates is anything but, so grab a loved one (or a hoped-to-be loved one) and get yourself to Petaluma's Cinnabar Theater. My suggestion? Get your tickets soon, as I predict word of mouth on this winner is already spreading across the North Bay, and you'll be sorry if you miss this delightful February fare. Oh—and come early and sit down front, where Haley Walker can truly welcome you into her world.
—Patrick Thomas, Talkin' Broadway
Dating sucks. At least that's what they tell me. Since I've been happily married almost 30 years, I scarcely remember. But "Bad Dates," a comedic one-woman show at the Cinnabar Theater in Petaluma, acts as a reminder. Amusingly.Texas transplant Haley Walker is first met in a rent-controlled Manhattan apartment that's almost as disheveled as her life. Her main décor seems to be clutter. This 'n' that spill from opened dresser drawers. A closet and clothes rack overflow with garb that doesn't make her happy. And she visibly worships at the altar of the shoe gods, owning about 600 pairs of footwear. The divorcée bemoans her 35-year-old feet having swelled so that many shoes don't fit anymore — and that the most comfy undoubtedly would be a pair she couldn't be caught dead in: her 13-year-old daughter's flats.
Complicating her life is a Romanian mobster jailed for laundering money at the restaurant she runs, a thunderstorm with Buddhist overtones and napkins used for raingear, and her gay brother. Plus failed dinners with a guy who endlessly chatters about cholesterol and his colon, a law prof who's aloof (for good reason), and a wannabe lover superb at vanishing.
Maybe men and women are put on earth just "to torture each other," she opines at one dramatic juncture.
Opening night, both genders laughed often. The women more loudly. Especially at Haley's recurrent dressing and undressing and dressing and…
The 80-minute "Bad Dates," an off-Broadway success in 2003, pays homage to yesteryear. Imelda Marcos' shoe obsession is alluded to (although Carrie Bradshaw's in "Sex and the City" is ignored). And Mildred Pierce, the title character in a 1945 Joan Crawford potboiler about a long-suffering mother and her ungrateful daughter, becomes a major plot point. The play, however, could be taking place today.
Jennifer King — who directed "I Am My Own Wife," last season's one-man tour de force at Cinnabar starring Steven Abbott in playing 36 characters — excels as Haley.In a pre-show briefing, director Molly Noble, who has worked with the Ross Valley Players, the College of Marin and Word for Word, labeled King (who's acted and directed at the California Shakespeare Theater, the Aurora Theatre Company, and the Berkeley and 6th Street playhouses) "a dynamo" willing to be vulnerable as an actor. Noble's description is accurate. King's stage demeanor, countenance, and accent never ring false.

Promotional Items For the WorkplacePromotional desk and office items are said to be the fourth-largest product category in the promotional products industry. Promotional items for desk and office use are in demand because they offer substantial logo exposure. Consider the prescription and note pads that pharmaceuticals salesmen leave at doctors' offices. Some of these promotional items will find their way to receptionists' desks. Others will be used by doctors themselves. Imagine the number of people who walk in and out of clinics daily and see these promotional items. Another reason promotional items are a big hit in offices is that many of us spend a big part of our day in the workplace. The average worker spends at least 45 hours a week in the office. At his workstation, there's a logo-imprinted notepad, a ballpoint pen, a mug, and a photo frame. Imagine the number of co-workers this person has-those he works with directly as well as those who pass by his statio
Promotional Coffee Mugs - A Cost Effective Means of AdvertisingAs a business owner, it's important to understand the importance of marketing and know all the options out there that are available to you. Outsourcing your main means of advertising is a simple way to take care of business and can be extremely cost effective. The simple rules of promotional products are just this: let the ends justify the means, utilize the uniqueness available in the current market, and always trust in first impressions and statistics. Advertising can be a very tricky business, but with the right methods, the right information, and the right promotional item it doesn't have to be a painful process. Personalized coffee mugs are perhaps something everyone keeps in their home. A large portion of populations everywhere rely on coffee to get them going in the morning. As for all of the others, hot chocolate comes in a sweet second and mugs are saved for that same purpose. So, wouldn't it make sense to invest in imprinted coffee mu

Insulated Water Bottles Are an Important Part of an Athlete's Basic Gear KitInsulated water bottles are an important part of an athlete's basic gear kit if the sport is played outdoors. When you exercise or exert your body, it is important that you do not drink water that is either too warm or too cold. This is where the insulation found in some bottles comes in useful. By protecting the contents of the bottle from outside temperatures, liquids can maintain the same temperature for a longer period of time. This is particularly useful for long distance or timed activities, such as bicycle competitions and hiking. However, before you purchase any water bottle, there are a few things that you will want to keep in mind. First, not all insulated water bottles are created equal. There are many different materials that are used as insulation for these bottles. Depending on the type of insulation, the bottle may be designed for keeping beverages cold or warm. There are some materials that will handle either, though often not a
Benefits of Promotional UmbrellasAdvertising with promotional products like pens, caps, mugs, umbrellas, and many more may not be a ground breaking concept for you. For your company, this strategy can prove be a giant leap. You are bombarded with choices and products when you are searching for promotional items. Among all promotional items, if you are catering to a niche and valuable audience, promotional umbrellas can be a better choice compared to other promotional items such as pens, mugs, caps, keyrings, and many more. Promotional umbrellas are regularly used each time there's rain or on a bright, sunny day. These promotional umbrellas make a powerful impact on dozens of potential customers each time they're used. Many companies look at promotional umbrellas as a generous and thoughtful corporate gift. Promotional printed umbrellas are definitely a "step up" from the usual promotional items, and are well appreciated by loyal clients, especially, when they are caught in an unexpected thunderstorm.

Residents look for survivors at a damaged site after what activists said was a barrel bomb dropped by forces loyal to Syria's President Bashar Assad in Aleppo.(Photo by: REUTERS)
Lebanese journalist: 'Aleppo would have been safe like the Golan were it annexed by Israel'
By MAAYAN GROISMAN
"If Israel would have annexed Aleppo, it would have been safe today, like the Golan. Aleppo's citizens would have been better off living under occupation than living under ruins," he twitted.
In a contentious move, Naidm Koteich, a well-known Lebanese political analyst revealed his support for Israeli annexation of the currently embattled Syrian city of Aleppo, arguing that were this scenario to take place, the city would have been peaceful, like the Golan.
In a comment he wrote on his Twitter page, Koteich expressed dismay over the absence of an Israeli move to annex Aleppo.
"If Israel would have annexed Aleppo, it would have been safe today, like the Golan. Aleppo's citizens would have been better off living under occupation than living under ruins," Koteich wrote.
Israel took the Golan Heights during the 1967 Six Day War, and in 1981 extended Israeli law to the region, thereby de facto annexing it.
Koteich's comment came shortly after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that Israel would never renounce the Golan, infuriating Syrian politicians. Thus, many Syrian social media activists began wrangling with Koteich for voicing pro-Israel opinion.
A Twitter user affiliated with the Syrian opposition said: "the carnage in Aleppo increases our hatred for Zionists, because without Israel, Assad would have gone."
Many other users cursed Koteich, claiming that he should be incarcerated for being an Israeli agent.
Koteich anchors DNA, a daily show broadcast on the Lebanese Future Television Network. On his show, he tends to criticize Iran and its involvement in Lebanon, calling Lebanon "a mafia state" controlled by Hezbollah.
The northern Syrian city of Aleppo has been witnessing endless bombardments by the Syrian air force in the last week, in a bid to oust rebel factions from the city's outskirts. Since the city was excluded from the truce forged by the American administration and Russia on Friday, airstrikes continue hitting the city, causing hundreds of civilian causalities.

This article originally appeared on guggenheim.org/blogs under the title "Nine Guggenheim Exhibitions Designed by Architects," and is used with permission.
Exhibition design is never straightforward, but that is especially true within the highly unconventional architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright's Guggenheim Museum. Hanging a painting in a traditional "box" gallery can be literally straightforward, whereas every exhibition at the Guggenheim is the reinvention of one of the world's most distinctive and iconic buildings. The building mandates site-specific exhibition design—partition walls, pedestals, vitrines, and benches are custom-fabricated for every show. At the same time, these qualities of the building present an opportunity for truly memorable, unique installations. Design happens simultaneously on a micro and macro scale—creating display solutions for individual works of art while producing an overall context and flow that engages the curatorial vision for the exhibition. This is why the museum's stellar in-house exhibition designers all have an architecture background. They have developed intimate relationships with every angle and curve of the quarter-mile ramp and sloping walls.
