UNHRC adopts resolution on climate change and human rights
Saturday, 2019-07-13 18:17:02
NDO/VNA – The United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) has adopted 26 resolutions, including a resolution on climate change and human rights co-authored by Vietnam, the Philippines and Bangladesh, during its 41st session in Geneva, Switzerland.
The resolution calls on countries to increase measures to ensure the rights of the disabled amid the impacts of climate change, including their participation in the building and launching of projects against changing climate at local, national and international levels.
It also urges enhanced international cooperation in financial assistance, technological transfer and capacity building for developing countries in response to climate change.
The session also adopted 15 other resolutions regarding information technology and human rights, the rights of migrants, the removal of discrimination against woman and girls. The remaining 10 resolutions were passed by votes, including ones on human rights in the Philippines, international cooperation in human rights, among others.
The council approved Vietnam's national report under the third-cycle Universal Periodic Review, and others by 13 other countries.
Vietnam accepted 241 out of 291 recommendations made by the council's members, including the completion of legal regulations, measures to protect civil, political, socio-economic and cultural rights, strengthening mechanisms to protect human rights and issues regarding migration, climate change, environment and sustainable development.
The Vietnamese delegation offered constructive feedback at sessions to build draft resolutions and co-sponsored five other resolutions.
Ambassador Duong Chi Dung, head of the Vietnam's Permanent Mission to the UN in Geneva, delivered speeches at many sessions.

Monday, February 2, 2009
I had planned, though, to get a few things done today and stuff printed off, put in an envelope and posted. But today was migrainey – not quite the same as full-blown migraine but a kind of weaker, younger sister of the real thing. So a nothing-very-much day, other than looking from my bed at the snow that kept falling on the rooftops and swirling around the trees; and thinking about how auspicious it all was because:
If candlemas day be fair and bright,
winter will take another flight;
if candlemas day be cloud and rain,
winter is gone and will not come again.
(If I had changed "rain" to "snow" it would not have rhymed).
I have been given a particularly dense and fragrant beeswax candle by the ancient woman who is the nearest I have to a godmother and looks like Mother Holle herself. I will be lighting it.

Sorry about the migrainey thing, been there. But the slow-snow day sounds wonderful.
If the Groundhog sees his shadow, we get six more weeks of winter. If he doesn't, it'll be another month and a half.

I too am hoping that the migraine hasn't troubled you to an untoward degree.
It may (or may not) be interesting that I raised an eyebrow, given your statement that the weather doesn't affect you personally.
This is, of course, based entirely upon my own assumptions, therefore little need be made of it (and what can be made of a raised eyebrow after all?).
But, for the sake of academic reasons: raking through those assumptions, I would have assumed that you would have welcomed the snow, given that it resembles proper winter weather, and requires a certain degree of coldness as commensurate with the season.
Please feel free not to respond to this, based on what it is, and whom it says more about (ie me). Whatever, I certainly agree that we need more days like this.

The photos of the snow across England have been beautiful. Wish I could be there to make some snow angels.

Zhoen, the groundhog wouldn't have been able to see a trace of shadow yesterday. Today he would see it very clearly as tis very sunny.
I think the Trouserian eyebrow was appropriately raised for you are quite right - I simply love winter in winter, and it still is that, so by my reckoning all is right with the world. I only meant it doesn't really affect the rhythm of my day - though that is perhaps not quite accurate because the seasonal changes do affect that. Well done, Herr Hosen, we need to lift our voices up in the midst of those who insist that winter is awful.
Collin, the nicest snow sculpture I saw was that of a man sitting on a park bench. He will still be there today.

Good description of a snowy day; I can almost feel the lassitude and languor of it all: the inertia of winter which cements you to that place by the fire, waiting for another cup of tea and a sweet, wondering which book to read next.
So, answer me this: is the reference to Mother Holle not only to the elder female chandler, but also to the snowy weather?
As the Germans said: It is snowing. Hulda (or Holle) is making her bed.
...or flouncing her duvet
...or shaking the feather bed.
- Tuesday, February 03, 2009 12:38:00 PM
- Reading the Signs said...
well Montag, Hulda and Frau Holle may be one and the same person. When she shakes her bedding out the snow falls down to earth. Sometimes people pass through her realm and are frightened by the look of her and her long teeth, but she is kind so long as one is not lazy. If you shake her bedding well she will reward you with gold, if you can't be bothered to do that she covers you in pitch.

We have some snow up north; I wish for more!
It is picture postcard though isnt it?
- Tuesday, February 03, 2009 7:27:00 PM
I think the cold does that to your head. There should be an ME hat - big and furry, maybe in a nice blue, with ear flaps and an internal heater. With a hint of menthol.
- Tuesday, February 03, 2009 8:27:00 PM
- Reading the Signs said...
Me too, Kahless, I love it. And everyone I met today looked happy despite the inconvenience.
Hi Petal - if you mean the migrainey headache, the cold doesn't do that to me. I'm more likely to be bothered by very hot weather.
I really like the cold snaps. I seem to find myself saying this rather a lot.

Your very generous reply made me smile, signs - I'd written that comment under the influence of alcohol, and was labouring to try and make sure it didn't sound too cheeky!
- Tuesday, February 03, 2009 9:35:00 PM
- Reading the Signs said...
If that's you being cheeky, Trousers, you are always welcome chez Signs when under the affluence of incohol.
More winter on the way!

As Washington eagerly awaits the release of special counsel Robert Mueller's report, President Trump's team of lawyers is working feverishly to complete a counter-report to what Mueller's redacted report might contain.
Monday, April 15, 2019
Do I Even Have To Make This Point
A thing about the Trump administration is that they are so dumb that it hardly feels worth bothering pointing out how dumb they are half the time. Of course it's a bit necessary because Both Sides journalism just throws it out there to let the reader decide because everything is always so confusing when it involves Republicans. But, you know, why is it necessary to provide any kind of rebuttal to the Mueller report which even the liberal New York Times informed me that the release of the report which wasn't released and no one at the New York Times had read meant "The darkest, most ominous cloud hanging over his presidency was all but lifted." So weird.

Juvenile delinquency -- Oregon -- Multnomah County -- Statistics, Juvenile courts -- Oregon -- Multnomah County, Juvenile detention homes -- Oregon -- Multnomah County.
The purpose of this project was to determine whether certain personal, socioeconomic, and court-related factors are significantly related to the differential placement of delinquent and dependent children from the detention facility at the Donald E. Long Home. A stratified random sample was composed of 173 placements of children who were held in detention after a preliminary hearing.
The review of literature revealed that little systematic. Information is known regarding the placement process as it is related to differential placement of children from a detention facility.
A code sheet was developed for recording the information in the children's records maintained by the court. Fourteen variables were ultimately selected for analysis of their relationship to differential placement. These variables were subjected to three statistical approaches; a descriptive analysis of the random sample, testing of the significance of each variable to the alternatives in placement by either Chi square or analyses of variance, and testing of several variables in combination by discriminant function.
This study was limited by the fact that only demographic variables were tested. Although three individual variables were found to have a high degree of significance in relation to placement, the data as produced within the scope of this research project does not provide an effective placement profile. The need for additional research in the area of the differential placement process is clearly indicated. Suggestions are made for future research.
This is a group project.

When Going Green Becomes Part of the Business Plan
24 August 2010
Most manufacturing companies are faced with putting green issues higher up their corporate agenda. Cutting carbon emissions, reducing waste, going green, corporate social responsibility are just some of the terms that are becoming more familiar in the vocabulary of business life.
While governments around the world have put their initial focus on the major energy intensive industries and large companies, there is little doubt that the green agenda is here to stay and manufacturing industries such as abrasives will be affected….. Read More

World's largest model airport opened in Germany
It took a grand total of six years to build but an incredible new miniature model, called Knuffingen Airport, based on Hamburg's airport, has finally opened to the public.
It's on display at Miniatur Wunderland, in Hamburg, and features 40 aircraft that take off and land and 90 vehicles that trundle around the runways automatically.
Making something this small and perfectly formed doesn't come cheap. It cost 3.5million Euros – but the result is plane-ly amazing.
The real airport opened in 1911 and remains the oldest operational airport in the world. When it was first built it covered a mere 45 hectares – it's now ten times bigger and measures a whopping 2.2sq miles.
From up here, the planes look like ants: The aircraft are small, but perfectly formed
The longer you look at it, the more it's obvious why it took so many years to complete
The attention to detail is astounding. The planes park themselves and passenger walkways slowly move into place.
The tow trucks even feature little flashing orange lights and the petrol tanks can be seen indicating which way they are about to turn. What's more, the airport lights up spectacularly to create an entrancing night scene.
Watch a YouTube video of the incredible model below:

Lisbon is, in my opinion, one of the best cities to spend a weekend and a perfect place to experience one of Europe's smaller capitals – but don't let the word 'smaller' fool you! Lisbon packs a hefty punch with great places to see, eat and places to totally 'let your hair down'…
…Okay, so that analogy doesn't really work for me with a shaved crew cut – but you get the picture!
Lisbon Is More Than Just Cork Production…
Lots of cities in Europe seem to have an 'identity'; Paris and Venice seems inextricably linked to romance, Barcelona to art like Gaudi and London to having around 52 Nando's restaurants per square mile! Okay, I jest… We are known for much more in London – like bangers and mash, jellied eels and the home of Simon Cowell… 😉 Just like these most amazing European cities, Lisbon has formed its own cosmopolitan identity that doesn't involve the cities famed cork production!
Why Is Lisbon One of Europe's Most Cosmopolitan Cities?
In my opinion, Lisbon is one of Europe's most significant cities to visit. It was the gateway city for many explorers to discover new lands, flavours and tastes from across the world. Its location as a coastal city thus brought back many new and exciting foods, architecture, spices and cultures that all mixed within the city limits to create the beauty that is Lisbon today!
Some Key Sites To See On Your Weekend In Lisbon…
1.) Torre de Belém (Belem Tower)
This year Lisbon's 'UNESCO World Heritage Site', Belem is 500 years old – construction started in 1515 and finished in 1519. At the grand old age of 500 Belem is still going strong.My top tip is to visit early in the day – queues rather quickly build up to over an hour wait.
2.) Castelo de São Jorge (St George's Castle)
One of Lisbon's most iconic landmarks – with over 1000 years of history, Castelo de São Jorge is a must see for any visitor to the city. My top tip is to visit around dusk… the castle has 360 degree views across the city and becomes a perfect place to watch the sunset.
3.) Chapel of St. John
Hidden in São Roque Church, the Chapel of St. John is one of the world most precious (and expensive chapels) – built from gold, this chapel is a truly spectacular place to see…
4.) Ride The Famous Trams
Why not head on one of Lisbon's iconic trams – they rattle their way across the city and it's a perfect experience to include when your feet get all tired! My top tip is to take the tram up some of Lisbon's more hilly districts… especially on a sunny day.
5.) Eat Piri-Piri Chicken
Home of the original piri-piri chicken – head to a one of the cities many local eateries that serve the freshest and most succulent per-peri basted meals you will ever have! My top tip is to try the peri-peri oil that will be on your table. With a small brush, baste everything in sight… it's that delicious!
6.) Get Lost In Lisbon's Ancient Alfama Neighbourhood
Why not take some time and relax and enjoy the city? Stroll through Alfama's colourful and hilly street. Not only will you experience some areas of the city that aren't on the tourist trail, but you might find one of Lisbon's most impressive cathedrals, the Sé.
7.) Padrão dos Descobrimentos
Remember I said about the importance of exploration and discovery in Lisbon – well, the 'Tribute To The Age Of Discovery' is a perfect reminder of the rich heritage Lisbon has. This gigantic monolith creeps over the edge of the river Tagus. If you want an inside view, why not take a lift to the top and 'discover' a birds eye view of the surrounding area yourself!
8.) Elevador de Santa Justa
Forget the Eiffel Tower in Paris; Elevador de Santa Justa is the one to see…
… Okay, so don't forget the worlds most iconic statue in Paris, but do remember that the Elevador de Santa Justa was built by Raoul Mésnier du Ponsard who was Gustave Eiffel's apprentice. It seems Eiffel's work had a big impact on his apprentice, as the structures are very similar in design. Originally built as a way to connect areas of the city, it is now used mainly by visitors that want to experience 'old Lisbon'.
9.) See Mosteiro dos Jerónimos
Built in the 15th Century, this spectacular world-heritage site is a must for any visitor to Lisbon. Commissioned by King Manuel I in 1501 – this beautiful and ornate historical building has been perfectly preserved.
10.) Eat A Pastel de Nata
Try one of Lisbon's most famous tarts – these freshly baked and warm delights are a truly delicious treat that have been sold in Portugal for hundreds of years. One of the most famous places to eat is at Pastéis de Belém, who pride themselves on the traditional baking method, ingredients and of-course… deliciousness! Don't worry too much at the sight of long queues, they are fast moving and disappear as quickly as a Pastel de Nata in my hand! ☺
11.) See The Cutest Puppy!

Fantastic video.
Great intro Ricky… You got a new subscriber.
I now know where you keep your Elmer's glue. Great content here my good sir. Thank you.
you talked about giving value to the readers… But what if I don't have any readers yet?
Man, this video hit me hard especially points 3 and 4. I will level with you guys. I have known about affiliate sites for almost TEN YEARS. I started my first and only one I think 7-8 years ago and it went nowhere because of a too-small niche and lack of content on my part (mainly the latter). In the meantime I have dabbled in other things (freelancing, FBA) but nothing has stuck. In the past year I have been coming back to affiliate, reading case studies, even watching people that have gone from 0-4 figures monthly, and done nothing… I'm sickened by the time that has passed. I've been watching a lot of your videos the past few days. Thank you for the wake up call. I'm starting now.
I just discovered this video. The airfare into Boise is higher for that particular time frame. It drops precipitously after that date. Perhaps next time!
Yeessss!!! It's so inspiring (and without a shitty bluff like any other "successful" IM does) for a digital noob like me. Thx man 🙂
LOL nice pool
Really motivating video! Thanks for creating such great content!
BOOM! just blew up 99.9% of all Guru's businesses/scams 🙂
Damn, Ricky! You speak the truth.
Very inspirational video 🙂 Keep the good work guys.
I wish I would have watched this video before now. I already promised the wife and grandson to take them to Austin that weekend. Dang…
super motivation "write now"
Great info as usual. Loved the intro… 🙂
Keep the great videos coming❤
Oh I am SO sorry I can't make the event. You guys are so real and make so much sense — I would bring you a dozen t-shirts from the holy land! Next time!
Awesome video! I wonder if this is why I get almost ~4k readers per month from two articles in the fitness niche? I said f*ck doing backlinks, makes no sense, and just focused on creating stuff that is helpful! Probably explains the 4:30 time on page as well 🙂
The funny thing is that I stopped after I'd written 6 articles, because I didn't see any traffic at first. Focused on YouTube for a while, and didn't think about the website much. My girlfriend accidentally logged into my google analytics (she was going to check her own website) and suddenly she said to me: "wow well done you get 4k readers per month!"
I was like, "what, are you kidding me?!" Safe to say, it was a religious experience to my belief system hehe 😀
You have to be intelligent with your time and know when to cut and run. I had an ingenious idea I started playing with nearly 2 years ago, and went whole hog into working 20-30 hours a week since last March, until about a month ago.
No matter what I did the growth just trickled up 2-3 subs a day, 700-900 views every day, even after more than doubling my videos, branching out my marketing to new platforms and significantly increasing my quality. 2-3 subs and 700-900 views a day.
I've now put that project down to perculate on its own to start a new one, and in 3 weeks I'm getting indicators that show the potential for growth rate, size, community development and search results will be substantially better soon than my last project after 7 solid months of working on it.
It's true tgatany people give up too early, but there is also always a risk of wasting your time for too long on a dead end project, and you need to keep analyzing your position and potential growth, to know when it's time to cut and run to a different venture.
I just found you guys today! You have lots of great content and heart. I wish I could come this weekend but the plane ticket would be outrageous. I will keep implementing your tips and hopefully will be able to join your class soon. 🙂 Keep up the good work!

Last week was a long a** week. So long I ended up killing my laptop's bios, locking myself out of my house and breaking my phone's screen in the process of breaking into my home. Yes, you laugh, but trust me, that week was long.
Still, I believe everything happens for a reason. After my laptop and phone went kaput, I spent a good number of days trying to recover my passwords while working with the oldest laptop in Legibra. All I can say is thank God for the cloud. I hope you know which Cloud I'm talking about. Okay, just to be clear, it's the cloud that hosts you data giving you access from wherever you are.
Long story short, between recovering my passwords and following up on my laptop's repair I ended up writing no blog. And I have to confess, through out the week I was itching to find out what would happen?
Well finally, the week ended, I got my stuff back on track and here we are. How did our blog survive after a week of no one touching it? Hmmm not well. Take a look.
This is what happened when I didn't update my blog for a week
10.4% Drop In Users
First of all, who is a website user?
Basically, users are the number of unique cookies that have been seen over a specified period of time.
For example, if somebody came into your website 5 different times outside of the set 30-minute window they would have 5 different sessions but they would still just be one user because that person you have seen over and over again. They have 5 sessions and 1 user.
The drop in users was expected especially since new blog articles capture new audiences.
2. 9.9% Drop in Sessions
If you have less users coming to your blog, chances are sessions are going to drop as well. As earlier described, sessions are a group of interactions that take place on your website within a given time frame. (default is 30 minutes). Let me give you an example because this might be hard to envision.
Example 1:
If you visit Legibra.com at 3PM, read through the latest blogs, check out our clients and then switch back to your emails, i.e leave Legibra.com, and come back at 4pm, your 30-min session would have expired and you will start the 2nd session.
3. Increase In Returning Users by 10%
The Returning Visitor Metric tracks what happens when someone returns to your website multiple times. You can track how effective your blogs are at building and retaining your audience online. This is particularly important in demonstrating the value of your content marketing efforts. Naturally I am pleased that my content efforts for the past year have not been in vain. By consistently blogging every week, we have created a number of readers who are always coming back to refer to something they read or checking for the latest post. If you are one of the returning visitors, know that I love you.
Lessons Learned
- It is important to update your blog regularly
- It is important to have a plan B or a risk margin in your blogging plans
- Always keep an eye on your blog data to see how different activities affect its performance
But enough about me, what about your blog? How do you use analytics to decide how often to update your blog? What is the least amount of blogs you can create to get the best results?

Following the success of a similarly big-scale trip to New York in January, more than 800 students and staff will be spending nearly a week in the German capital, taking part in a huge range of academic trips and experiences which will give real-world dimension to their classroom studies.
Berlin 1
The first planes touch down on Sunday, carrying students and staff, before trips begin early on Monday morning.
Students from nearly 35 courses will be flying to Berlin, where, over several days, they will visit businesses, factories, museums and other organisations, seeing first-hand the lessons and examples they have been learning about in the classroom.
Among the planned visits, students studying journalism will visit the Deutsche Welle studios, physics students will be shown around the Archenhold observatory, engineering students will visit the BMW motorcycle plant, while those studying youth work will spend a day helping at community groups Project Gangway and Berliner Aids-Hilfe.
RELATED NEWS Visit the Berlin trip page to follow our students' activities in real-time #DMUglobal in New York - read all about it here DMU visits Berlin to show that UK higher education is still open for business
Music Technology students will be visiting some of the world leading acoustics and audio tech at the Technical University Berlin, as well as touring the sound stages at the famous Babelsberg film studios, at which movies like The Bourne Ultimatum and The Hunger Games were produced.
Meanwhile, Policing Studies, Forensic Science and Criminal Investigation students can visit the Stasi museum, and explore the history of Checkpoint Charlie and the Berlin Wall. They will also visit the Sachsenhausen concentration camp to try and understand what took place there.
During the visit, DMU will hold an event at the British Embassy, where DMU's Vice-Chancellor, Professor Dominic Shellard will join Sir Sebastian Woods, UK Ambassador to Germany and students studying at the university to address an audience on the benefits of international education and the importance of working to build relationship across Europe.
Professor Dominic Shellard said: "We have chosen to come to Berlin because it is a city which embodies internationalism, inclusiveness and openness to all.
"We want our students to be inspired by the city and to have their academic studies enriched by the wide range of real-world experiences Berlin has to offer.
"International study is one of the most transforming experiences there is and, with Article 50 triggered and Brexit less than two years away, we need more than ever to be filled with the spirit of Berlin and to demonstrate our commitment to tolerance, a global outlook and the extraordinary benefits that international engagement can bring."
The event is the latest such event as part of DMU's #LoveInternational campaign.
The campaign, which began almost a year ago after the EU referendum, has involved a series of visits to cities across Europe, to Vilnius, Warsaw, Stockholm among others, engaging higher education experts, potential students and alumni in each region, building new relationships, discussing the impact of Brexit and offering reassurance that UK higher education remains welcoming to international staff and students.
By January 2017, DMU's undergraduate EU applications had risen 29 per cent, bucking a national decline in numbers of 7.43 per cent.

Sometimes, the more audacious the plan, the more likely it is to work. Here are this plan's elements:
- Celebrate Pride
- Work with a community just recently torn by a debate on how and where to celebrate Pride
- Propose shutting down Broadway for a summer Saturday
- Add a rainbow-colored light display up and down the street
- And do it with a barebones, grassroots organization and pretty much zero budget
The whole crazy thing moved one step closer to reality this week as the city has given its OK on #3 — as far as the city's concerns with the event go, the Capitol Hill Pride Festival 2009 on Broadway, Sat. June 27th from 11am—4pm is a go. We told you about the planned festival last month before the Capitol Hill Community Council's meeting to determine go/no-go on the effort. The community vote at that meeting approved moving ahead with planning.
Full disclosure: I currently chair the council and I was against early versions of council vice president Charlette LeFevre's plan because of my concerns about community support. I was wrong — this thing just keeps moving forward. Of course not everybody supports it. But a lot of people do and, what matters most is that the people who do support it are doing the work to make it happen. Now it's up to everybody to shape it. The committee formed to organize the event is meeting this Sunday, April 12th at Oddfellows at 7p. Here are details from an announcement LeFevre sent out:
The Capitol Hill Community Council announces the Capitol Hill Pride Festival 2009 on Broadway
Sat. June 27th, 11am—4pm
The Council Wed. April 8th just received permission from the City of Seattle's Special Events to go forward with the festival in what is believed will become Capitol Hill's largest annual event.
The format of the festival will be an all ages family fun festival celebrating diversity and community pride. The theme is "Family" and the festival will be open to everyone, LGBT, straight and anyone of any background.
Music, Singing, Entertainment, Fashion Shows Contests, Pet parade, and Face Painting are being planned.
The location will be two blocks directly on Broadway between Olive and Harrison St. between Broadway Grill and Rite Aid. The festival time was scheduled early so as not to conflict with the historical Dyke March scheduled for later in the afternoon.
Expected Attendance is 2,000 minimum but the Arts and Events committee believe the attendance may reach 10,000.
The Council is developing the festival with the local LGBT organizations and businesses while keeping fiscally responsible. To date, twenty five businesses are supporting the festival and the Arts and Events Committee is working with youth groups to help schedule the festival. The features to be added with funds allowing are Jumbotron screens.
Another feature of the Pride festival for decoration is Broadway lights in the colors of the light spectrum up and down Broadway. These lights would start with the color blue on the North end of Broadway at Roy and "band" to red to Pike and stay up all year helping to uniting Broadway, Subtly identify Capitol Hill as the gay district of Seattle, provide additional lighting for safety and Attract visitors and shoppers to Capitol Hill. The Arts and Events Committee believes this light project would have a high visual impact on a neighborhood not only from a pedestrian level but from an aerial view providing a high profile visual for Capitol Hill. The proposed set is by June 1st for the start of Pride month.
Interested organizations or person interested in helping the festival are encouraged to contact the Arts and Events Committee which is scheduling the festival.
The next meeting is
Sun. April 12, 7pm at
Oddfellows Café on 10th and Pike on Capitol Hill.
Further information will be posted on the Community Council website at
Charlette LeFevre

Mollie King has emotionally opened up about her love life amid continued romance rumours surrounding her and Strictly Come Dancing partner AJ Pritchard.
The singer- who was seen leaving the Pride of Britain Awards with AJ on Monday night – admits she's a real romantic and loves to be in a relationship.
"I love being in love. I literally love being in love," says Mollie, 30.
"I'm so romantic. I'm such a girly girl. I don't want to be in one of those couples where you feel like, 'Are we really into each other?'"
But despite speculation that she could be more than just friends with AJ, 22, Mollie insists that she's single and doesn't 'need' somebody, though would 'love' to find the right person.
She's not fazed about going into her 30s as a solo woman either.
"I watch far too much Sex and the City for that! And they're all over 30 and having the time of their lives," the Saturdays star tells Women's Health magazine. "I'm like, 'Okay, if Carrie Bradshaw can have that lifestyle, I've nothing to worry about.'
"I mean, I definitely want children, 100 per cent so I feel that's probably the only thing that I tie to age."
Mollie's words come as fans continue to question whether romance could be on the cards for her and AJ given their sizzling chemistry on the dance floor.
AJ's dad also fuelled speculation when he revealed recently that the duo were 'having fun' and 'spending more time with each other than a married couple would do'.
Oh, and AJ admitted in September that he thought Mollie had the 'sexiest bum' on the show. Ooh-er.
Mollie, though, has some body hang-ups and says she'd like to have a more rounded tush.
"But I do think you get to a point where you have to accept yourself and say 'This is my figure, and I could work on it, but I'm never going to drastically change it,'" she explains.
"I'd like more of a booty, but I'm always going to have a tomboy shape. I'm never going to be Nikki Minaj."
It sounds like AJ likes you just as you are, Mollie…

Is a Fat-Freezing Procedure For You?
In 2017, a revolutionary new fat-freezing procedure to remove stubborn fat was approved by the FDA called CoolSculpting. This exciting new way to eliminate fat is non-invasive and nonsurgical, unlike liposuction and other body contouring procedures that require surgery, incisions, and recovery periods. CoolSculpting has none of the risks associated with surgical fat-reduction techniques.
CoolSculpting is performed right in our office in less than an hour with no pain, preparation, or downtime. As the name suggests, CoolSculpting works by freezing the fat cells in a specific area using a specialized applicator that is contoured to the treatment area. These can be areas of fat such as the love handles, belly fat, muffin tops, lower back fat, thighs, underarms, and under the chin with the latest technology.
Is a Fat-Freezing Procedure For You?
CoolSculpting has already helped thousands of people get rid of stubborn fat pockets where diet and exercise are not working. CoolSculpting is best for you if have a total body fat composition between 20 and 35 percent and have pinch-able rolls of fat.
CoolSculpting targets fat under the skin in specific areas. After the fat cells have been frozen, they die and the lymphatic system expels them from the body. The first results are typically seen in about three weeks, and most patients begin to experience slight sculpting of up to 23 percent. In three months, the best results begin to emerge, with most of the treated fat cells expelled from the body. This means that weight gain can no longer happen in the treated areas.
The Coolsculpting Procedure
The CoolSculpting applicator freezes fat cells under the skin in one or two areas per session, which saves time. While the treatment is underway, you'll feel a strong cooling sensation. However, this can quickly subside as the skin becomes numb. Most patients are able to relax and watch their show, read a book, or take a nap during the treatment session. The time frame of your treatment session can depend on things like the number of areas treated, but is generally completed within one hour. There can be some redness when the treatment is completed, but there are no needles or invasive techniques during the procedure. When you leave the office, you are free to return to work or go about your daily activities.
Schedule a Consultation
Dr. Nicholas Husni, MD, Ph.D., FACS is an experienced Cleveland board-certified surgeon whose goal is to help patients look and feel their best. Dr. Husni is an expert in cutting-edge technology like Coolsculpting, and can discuss your options with this non-surgical treatment during a consultation. To schedule a consultation, contact our office by calling or filling out our online form.

Dubai (October 11, 2018): Kangaroos a while ago scored 289 runs for the loss of five wickets, while chasing the target of 462 runs by Pakistan to win Dubai Test.
Usman Khawaja Khawaja is at the crease with unbeaten 122 runs, while head, Labuschagne are back to the pavilion.
Australia resumed their innings against Pakistan in Dubai Test from overnight score of 136-3.
Earlier on October 10, Australia closed at 136-3 on the fourth day chasing a daunting target of 462 runs.
Usman Khawaja was unbeatable on 50 and Travis Head 34 not out at close with Australia still need an improbable 326 runs for victory while Pakistan needs seven wickets on the final day for a 1-0 lead in the two-match series.Medium pacer Mohammad Abbas took all three wickets for 26 runs. Pakistan had declared their second innings on 181-6 after resuming at 45-3.
Jon Holland took 3-83 while Nathan Lyon finished with 2-58.Pakistan made 482 in their first innings to which Australia replied with 202.
Earlier, Pakistan declared their second innings for 181 for six on Wednesday. Australia need to score 462 runs to win Dubai Test.
Pakistan lost two wickets but still built a formidable 435-run lead over Australia. They went to the interval at 155 for five in their second innings, with Asad Shafiq on 22 and Babar Azam unbeaten on 23.
Pakistan made 482 in their first innings while in reply Australia were dismissed for 202.Jon Holland, who took the key wicket of Azhar Ali for four on Tuesday, dismissed opener Imam-ul-Haq for 48, caught and bowled off a flighted delivery.
Debutant Marnus Labuschagne then had Haris Sohail caught close to the slips for 39, leaving Pakistan at 110-4. Sohail and Imam had added 65 runs for the fourth wicket.
Holland has figures of 3-71 from 16 overs while off-spinner Nathan Lyon has yet to take a wicket.Jon Holland and Marnus Labuschagne dismiss Imam-ul-Haq and Haris Sohail as Pakistan continued to add to their overnight score of 45 against Australia in the second innings of the first Test at the Dubai International Stadium.
Despite being jolted by spinner Holland's two key wickets of Mohammad Hafeez (17) and Azhar Ali (four), Pakistan closed day three on 45-3, having an overall lead of 325 with seven second-innings wickets intact to force a win.Opener Imam was unbeaten on 23 while nightwatchman Asif was dismissed for nought, unable to guard Azhar from coming to bat in a crucial stage.
Earlier on October 09, debutant off-spinner Asif Bilal and young seamer Mohammad Abbas have devastated Australia's batting lineup as it collapsed after a solid start of 142 by openers Usman Khawaja and Aaron Finch.
They lost all their wickets for just 60 runs as they were all out for 202 in 83.3 overs in reply to Pakistan's big total of 482.

Asif captured six wickets for only 36 runs while Abbas grabbed four for 29.
Pakistan decided not to enforce the follow-on and are batting again with a lead of 280 runs.
Pacer Mohammad Abbas claimed four wickets.
It was a total contrast from the pre-lunch session when Australia — resuming at 30-0 – reached 137 without loss with both Usman Khawaja and debutant Aaron Finch defying Pakistani spinners during their resistance-packed stand.But the second session belonged to Asif, who dismissed Usman Khawaja (85), Shaun Marsh (seven), Travis Head (nought) and Marnus Labuschagne (nought) in the space of 29 runs.
Pakistan, though, were put on track by Abbas who forced Finch to drive straight into the hands of Asad Shafiq at short mid-on after scoring 62.
Khawaja hit eight fours before miscuing a premeditated sweep and was caught at short leg while Finch had five boundaries and a six in his knock.Leg-spinner Yasir Shah was unlucky not to be amongst wickets, having dropped Mitchell Marsh off his own bowling for two and wicketkeeper Sarfraz Ahmed missing a stump in the first session with Khawaja on 17.
Earlier in the day Finch was more confident as he punched two boundaries and a six off Yasir before sweeping Asif for a boundary to reach his half-century.
Khawaja, the Pakistan-born batsman, improved upon his previous best score in Asia of 26, made against Sri Lanka at Galle in 2011, by reaching his 13th Test half-century.

Treasury Management in the Nordics Q/A
Translating company needs to technology solutions
Interview with Lars Beckman
Lars Beckman is the Managing Director of CORE Process, an authorized BELLIN partner, certified in tm5, who coordinates the sale of tm5 in the Nordic markets. Lars sat down with the team and we were thrilled to pick his brain about CORE and the state of treasury in the Nordic market. Here are some of the highlights of our talk with Lars:
What matters most to companies looking for treasury management solutions?
What matters above all are our clients' requirements. We take a flexible and modular technological solution and apply it to this specific clients' requirements and processes. This is a challenge but also a task we relish, and we work hard each time until we've implemented a solution that provides maximum security and efficiency to our clients in their day-to-day operations. Together with our clients, we pursue digital transformation and our focus is always to ensure that our clients receive a great return on investment (ROI).
How does a company know they need a Treasury Management System (TMS)?
We know treasury and we know how to improve efficiency using a TMS. Even if a company is not actively seeking a TMS, we are aware of the benefit it can have on treasury departments. Knowing the problems of our potential clients is what helps us realize what types of solutions they may need. Many companies having smaller TMS-systems suited for contract management or companies experiencing rapid growth balloon faster than their team can handle and need to change to a flexible and broad TMS. BELLIN tm5 with defined process flows simply solves all of their issues.
What specific steps do you take to meet these requirements?
Let me take ITAB Shop Concept, one of our clients, as an example: Our consultants organized a scoping session to find out what ITAB needs. What we learned that a quick return on investment was very important to this client. So rather than just selling them a technological solution, we provided expert advice in connection with organizational changes following their expansion – both geographically and in terms of business portfolio. We always encourage open communication and close collaboration to be able to find the best solution for our clients. The personal and close relationships with our clients are necessary to facilitate the proper technical and consulting support.
How does digitization connect with clients' expectations?
When working with clients using digital systems, it is imperative to keep your work transparent. Like I mentioned earlier, collaboration and open communication are vital to maintaining a close relationship with clients. We want to change their mindset when approaching the efficiency of their current treasury structure rather than critique their work flow and original way of doing things. We want them to feel comfortable with the changes we are implementing, and we have realized that makes for a smooth transition. Like I said, we know treasury. We are experts in solving the problems they are currently experiencing. Once they jump on board and trust us, they see results.
Do you see any trends amongst TMS clients in the Nordics?
Move to have one umbrella system, integrated connections, not interfaces; integrated payments using SWIFTnet. This is also why we choose to work with BELLIN supporting this trend. One umbrella system with integrated features is sought after and tm5 has been a welcome beacon to their aspirations. We are supporting the companies that are ahead of the curve and moving toward using a complete BELLIN tm5, which holds all functions for the treasury department.
Where do you see treasury requirements in 5 to 10 years?
Currently, security and automated transactions are big topics. It is natural to want automation but the potential for security breaches tends to scare some companies. I think 5 to 10 years of innovation will see AI involved heavily in treasury. Automated transactions will be the norm and treasurers will be spending their time on analysis and risk assessment instead of data entry. The companies that jump on the wagon early enough will hit that optimization stage faster than the others.
About BELLIN

We provide solutions for the financial sector, catering to a range of clients from large multinationals to SMEs and banks.

Meet Fee, a pink tie-dye boyfriend fit T-Shirt.
Made from 100% super soft cotton and hand dyed (each tie-dye piece will vary) with our Saturday rainbow clam motif on the back of the T-Shirt.
As a teenager I used to tie-dye my own T-Shirts so things have certainly come full circle with this one. Fee is oversized in fit, looking like you stole it from your boyfriends wardrobe (hands off bf, this one is ours) but looks great either tucked in or hanging loose, for a relaxed look.
Washing instructions - wash at 30 degrees, inside out, do not tumble dry, do not dry clean, iron inside out - always follow the care label in the product.
This T-shirt was made in Portugal using an ethical, accredited factory. For more information, please click here

Below Inks Lake Dam, a little known natural area lies within the Inks Dam National Fish Hatchery. Wildflowers galore and other native vegetation thrives on the slopes and atop the rock formations at the 161-acre site, located off Park Road 4 on Clay Young Road.
I was amazed to discover how beautiful this place is! Plus, our climb to a panoramic overlook wasn't too strenuous or difficult, a bonus for parents of small children.
Week Three of our Texas Master Naturalist training with the Highland Lakes chapter also included a hatchery tour along with presentations on water conservation and invasive zebra mussels.
At the hatchery's Education Center, Amanda Dewees, conservation coordinator with the Lower Colorado River Authority, spoke on "Water in Central Texas and the Role of Conservation."
For background, she explained how 1996's bad drought led to Senate Bill 1, which recreated 16 regional water-planning groups across Texas. (I remember writing about that as a newspaper reporter.) Ranked second in the state's fasted growing areas, Region K–our Lower Colorado region–is expected to grow in population by 100 percent by 2060. Region M–the Rio Grande Valley area–is ranked number one in projected growth.
"Existing water supplies will go down 10 percent because the Ogallala Aquifer [in North Texas] is being depleted faster than it's being replenished," Dewees said. "Water demands will increase 22 percent, largely because agricultural use, which is larger, will shift to municipal use."
Along the Colorado River, the LCRA manages six lakes: Buchanan, Inks, LBJ, Marble Falls, Travis and Austin. Some lakes supply water for residential and commercial use; all generate electric power and provide recreational opportunities. Dewees shared about how the agency also manages–which hasn't been easy–"firm" customers (those with water supply contracts) and "interruptible" customers (irrigation contracts).
Though the current drought isn't yet over, recent rains have brought much-needed relief. Officially, 2011 has been pronounced the "drought of record," Dewees said. In Texas, rainfall for last year only averaged 14.88 inches; in 1917, weather watchers recorded 14.99 inches, the prior drought of record. Average annual rainfalls runs around 30 to 35 inches.
Turning to water conservation, Dewees quizzed us on our water-consumption knowledge. Did you know that…
· A 10-minute shower = 25 gallons of water
· A washing-machine load of clothes = 40 gallons
· Flushing a toilet = 2 gallons
· One-half inch water on 1/8-acre lawn = 2,500 gallons
· Washing hands with water running 2 minutes = 4 gallons
· A faucet dripping for a day = 30 gallons
"Drought responses are about sacrifices and restrictions, not sustainability," Dewees pointed out. "People make changes in response to a drought. Water conservation, on the other hand, is a lifestyle and long-term savings." Like campaigns against smoking and promoting recycling, attitudes about water consumption can be changed with awareness and education, she said.
Incentives, such as rebates for installing high-efficiency toilets and irrigation systems, help to promote conservation. For more info, visit Watersmart.org.
Dewees mentioned one development that's incorporating native habitat with housing–Belvedere on Hamilton Pool Road.(In my opinion, we need a lot more developers with this kind of mindset and forethought!)
After lunch, hatchery manager Paul Dorman delivered a gloomy report on invasive zebra (Dreissena polymorpha) and quagga (Dreissena bugensis) mussels.
"When we see them here, IT WILL BE TOO LATE," he said. "There is NO biological control for these mussels. NADA. ZIP. NOTHING! They look very innocuous. However, they use their byssal threads like Super Glue to attach any hard surface."
Hard surface can mean boats, infrastructure and native mussels and other underwater life. One female can lay more than a million microscopic eggs in a spawning season! The baby "villagers," as they're called, can grow up to 2 inches big and quickly latch on to whatever they find. "If you're an indigenous mussel, you're going to die because you can't open any more," Dorman said.
Via cargo ships, the two European species first got into the Great Lakes in the 1980s. Since then, they've moved into other states by waterways, such as the Mississippi River.
Spread the word, educate your friends and family about these dangerous species, Dorman warned. Because once villagers get into a lake or river, IT'S TOO LATE.
Boats should drained, inspected, high-pressured washed and thoroughly dried before visiting a different waterbody. For more info, go to Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's Zebra Mussels page. Also see Protect Your Waters and 100th Meridian Initiative.

Too many browser menus
Despite the huge recent improvement in browser interfaces – tabbed browsing, inbuilt search, RSS favourites, etc – I still think there's a long way to go. In particular there are way too many inconsistent menu options.
Using Internet Explorer or Firefox, running on Windows, there is
- A title bar menu allowing minimize / maximize / close
- A standard menu, e.g. file / edit / view / tools
- A set of browser commands, e.g. back / forward / refresh / homepage
- An address bar
- A tabs menu
The result is that half the screen gets taken up by confusing options and buttons before the content itself appears.
So what hope does a web application like Google Spreadsheets or SAP (themselves containing another two or three menus) have?
I think it's time for a rethink. So I've listed some principles to re-organize the browser.
1. Use a ribbon bar The old file / edit / view / favourites / tools / help menu should be replaced by a new ribbon bar. Ribbon bars are simple, clear, and effective, and would merge the currently overlapping file menu and buttons underneath.
2. Hardware for common options The most selected browsers button are undoubtedly "back", "forward", "refresh" and "home". In fact, they're so common, and natural, that they deserve their own hardware.
The buttons F1 through F12 on the keyboard are rarely used and even more rarely understood. Why not replace them with "Back", "Forward", "Refresh" and "Home" buttons? This would free up screen real estate, and avoid unnecessary and error-prone mouse use.
The benefits are even bigger on touch-screen interfaces like the iPhone – you can imagine the standard buttons fitting underneath the screen.
It's likely to be hardware vendors pushing this change. But Microsoft managed to get the new "Windows Start" button implemented, and a similar trick now could allow them to claim innovation and alignment with the internet.
3. No dialog boxes Dialog boxes crop up throughout browsers, especially in the tools and options menus. They're not accessible – you can't change font settings or view source – and they're visually confusing, since they look different to web pages.
All these dialog boxes should be replaced by web pages that open up within the browser. There should be a local web page to allow you to edit connection settings or security options. And why doesn't browser help open in the browser?
4. Reclaim the home page This is the most controversial principle. Your homepage should be set by the browser – you shouldn't be allowed to change it to anywhere else, whether Google or Myspace.
On the homepage should be:
- Your favourites (editable)
- Your RSS feeds (editable)
- Your history (with options to delete it)
- Browser options (editable) – e.g. connection settings, security settings, view settings. Some of these will take you to other pages for more detail - see principle 3 above
5. Lose the title bar What use does the windows title bar have, for browsers? It tells you what the title of the page is – but so does the tab bar. It allows you to minimize, maximize, or close a window – but so does the tab bar.
Once you've got tabbed browsing, there's absolutely no use for the title bar. In fact, it gets in the way – not only does it take up screen real estate, but it makes mouse control trickier (it's far easier to select a button at the top of the page than one 12 pixels down).
So let's get rid of the title bar!
Simpler, clearer, more concise So there you have it – five principles to get rid of the clutter of modern browsers. There's plenty of innovation still to come in browser design!

"The historical track record of old white men crapping on new technology they don't understand is at, I think, 100%."
Marc Andreessen, Venture capitalist and Bitcoin investor
Andreessen made his dismissive comment this summer at a forum discussing the future of Bitcoin, a crypto-currency I mentioned in a prior blog. The old white guy he was dissing was Warren Buffett, who had made some comments skeptical of the intrinsic value of Bitcoins.
Andreeseen was technically correct about Buffett's predictive track record. He just had the value sign wrong. Buffett's track record of forecasting the value of new technologies is indeed 100%, but the Sage of Omaha has been correct, not incorrect. Back in the late 1990s, Buffett published a comprehensive takedown of the technology bubble in Fortune magazine. At that time, tech enthusiasts dismissed him, indeed often ridiculed him for being old and out of touch. But Buffett was right. Investors in high-flying tech stocks lost most of their money as the tech-heavy NASDAQ index fell by almost 80% between March of 2000 and October of 2002.
Paying respectful attention to Warren Buffett is an intelligence test for any investor. So in trashing Buffett, was Andreesen ignorant, arrogant, or both?
The answer, I suspect, is neither. He was simply, as the tech world puts it, "talking his book." (Thanks for that phrase, Mike.) Andreessen is a smart guy. He was one of the inventors of Mosaic, the first web browser, and a founder of Netscape. He reaped billions from his early tech career. Now a venture capitalist, he's recently invested millions in the Bitcoin ecosystem — the range of companies working to provide support services to facilitate the deposit, spending, and transacting of Bitcoins and/or other crypto-currencies.
Most of what is happening around crypto-currencies is absolute nonsense, entirely reminiscent of past bubbles from the tech bubble to the original South Sea bubble in the early 1700s. (A new crypto-currency named after the tooth fairy? Really?) Will any part of the Bitcoin phenomena persist? Hard to say.
What is easier to understand is the overall track record of venture capital since the collapse of the tech bubble. Over the last decade and more, the return on venture capital as an asset class has been roughly zero. (As Jayne Cobb said, "Ten percent of nothing is, let me do the math here, nothing into nothing, carry the nothin'. Nothing.") That does not mean there have no profitable new technologies. In fact, Andreesen was an early investor in Twitter, Facebook and other key tech plays. But it does suggest that, across the span of new business initiatives, the universe of venture capitalists have been unable to discriminate between promising and dead-end technologies, or perhaps between good and bad business plans. (Some successful first-generation venture capitalists, like Bill Janeway formerly of Warburg Pincus, refer to the approach of many current VCs as "spray and pray.")
Back in 1997, the last time tech stocks were flying high, I went on a bike trip in France. One of the other cyclists was a famous venture capitalist, whose firm had bankrolled some of the most successful tech breakthroughs of the prior decades. At that time, he was contemplating leaving his firm and starting over, because his partners were not aggressive enough. He wanted to go into the freshman dorms at MIT to fund new Internet startups. Understand that he did not really think those freshmen were likely to have any genuinely valuable business ideas. He simply saw them as a source of new merchandise to peddle to the eager suckers.
This is a capital markets model, not a business model. I suspect part of the reason for the lousy returns may be that venture capitalists have gone from trying to invest in a broad range of technologies that solve actual human problems to trying to manufacture product for credulous investors.
Perhaps I am over-complicating the issue. It may be as simple as too much money chasing too few genuine economic opportunities. In any case, here at TGS we remain entirely comfortable have exactly zero direct exposure to venture capital as an asset class. Or as Jayne would say, "Nothing, carry the nothing. Still nothing."

Everybody knows that cigarettes are the leading cause of lung cancer.
If you don't smoke and you don't hang out in smoky places, though, it's easy to avoid exposure to that risk.
Not as many people know that the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the United States is an odorless radioactive gas that often seeps into homes at dangerous concentrations. In Tennessee, an estimated 16 percent of homes contain radon gas at high levels, and in some counties that number is as high as 75 percent, according to the Tennessee Radon Program.
The Environmental Protection Agency has selected January to be National Radon Action Month. As a result, the American Lung Association wants to remind Americans of three steps that they can take to confront the threat of radon.
Those three steps include:
1. Testing for radon in homes
2. Encouraging officials to test for radon in other public and private spaces such as schools
3. Supporting legislation that could mitigate the radon threat, such as changes to building codes that would require radon-resistant construction materials.
Radon is considered to be a Class A carcinogen and causes an estimated 21,000 deaths in the United States each year, according to a document from the Tennessee Radon Program. It is especially important for homeowners to test their homes in Williamson County because it has been designated a Zone 1 radon area by the EPA. This means that homes there are at the highest risk of having elevated radon levels. Most of the counties surrounding Williamson have been marked Zone 1, including Davidson.
Homeowners can buy radon testing kits themselves or hire professionals to conduct the testing. Tennesseans can request a free radon testing kit here, from the Tennessee Radon Program.
The Tennessee Radon Program recommends that, if hiring a professional, homeowners choose one that has been certified by either the National Radon Safety Board or the National Environmental Health Association. A search of the former found only three certified specialists in the entire state of Tennessee, the closest being in Cookeville. The NEHA site, however, turned up a number of certified radon service providers in the state. A list of them can be found here.
The good news is that there are ways to mitigate the problem in indoor spaces. Radon — which is produced in soil when uranium decays — rises and settles in homes through cracks in foundations or other openings. One popular method of radon reduction involves installing a system of fans and venting pipes below the main living area of a house which will redirect radon gas outdoors. Some radon reduction systems can diminish a home's radon concentrations by up to 99 percent, according to the EPA.
Radon levels are measured in units called picocuries. The EPA states that any home with a concentration higher than 4 picocuries of radon per liters of air should be worked on to lower the radon risk, although there is no truly safe level of radon. Higher exposures for longer periods of time, however, carry the greatest risk.
Geneica Jones, the program manager for the American Lung Association in Tennessee, hopes that people will consider investigating the issue of radon in their homes this month.
"Too many people do not know that they may have this dangerous threat in their homes," Jones said in a news release. "Testing is easy and it's the only way for people to know how serious the risk of exposure is. Because most of us keep our homes closed up in colder weather, January provides a great time to test for radon. It's something every home and business owner in Tennessee should do."
More information about radon from the American Lung Association can be found here. The National Radon Action plan, a joint effort of the American Lung Association, the EPA, the Children's Environmental Health Network, and other organizations, can be found here. It lays out strategies and goals related to radon reduction in the United States.

The North Tama football team committed five turnovers and suffered its fourth-straight loss as a result, falling 39-21 to Colfax-Mingo in Friday's Class A District 5 game.
The Redhawks (1-5, 0-4) threw five interceptions and surrendered 424 yards of total offense to Colfax-Mingo (3-4, 2-2).
North Tama was led by Hale Hulme, who was 7-for-11 passing for 90 yards with a 13-yard scoring strike to Tayten Payne. Hulme also carried the ball 19 times for 100 yards and a touchdown.
The Belle Plaine football team tallied a pair of 100-yard rushers in a 44-6 victory over North Tama in the previous Friday's Class A District 5 game.
Skyler Staker completed 12-of-27 passes for 161 yards and an interception for North Tama (1-4, 0-3). Tayten Payne pulled in three passes for 62 yards and Noah Bond had four grabs for 60 yards to lead the Redhawk offense. Tyler Morrison tallied 78 rushing yards and the team's lone touchdown.
