1) Thursday, 25/9/97, at 21.04, at home, in the customary manner
"(Julia) If you are my Jesus glorify the Father (3). (Jesus) Glory be to the Father Most High as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be world without end. Amen. * symbol Peace to you, children of my Heart! It is I, your Jesus, the Sacrificed Lamb is here among you: rejoice and celebrate, beloved spouses of my Heart!* My cross, drink also today my green cups and accept again with love your pains* of childbirth and mine: little stubborn one, when you are not able (for it), cry out my pains!* (Julia) Jesus, give me strength and constancy.* (Jesus) My daughter, daughter of my Heart,* prepare yourself because the times that shall come* will be even more heavy; prepare the Boat within you, my soul, because you too have to pull it ……… (Julia) Yes, Mother! (= Jesus–Mother) (Jesus) … for your children: bring them always to my Cross,* offer them my cups and make them drink, my soul,* because I come among you holding high my Holy Gospel!* and I ask each of you to bring it to the brethren & make it known & loved: I ask you to be living tabernacles of my Word, of my Light - of my Body & Blood. My children, children of my Heart, prepare the poor-dwellings because the Father is coming imminently among you; for this reason my Mother brings you the flour to make dough with. Let you, my cross, start off – start to knead-dough - and make the Priests knead-dough firstly, and then all the others, but I beg you: knead like Mary and with Mary! I am here among you, take a look, my daughter: Mary stands kneading for humanity!* let you drink my green cups!* (Julia) Jesus, give me strength!* (Jesus) My daughter, they are bitter, but drink them for my Little John, namely for the Pope.* (Julia) Jesus, he is stained with blood!* (Jesus) Do not be frightened, my soul! see: he too is working Mary's flour into dough!* (Julia) Jesus, why is he stained with blood?* (Jesus) My daughter, he prays for humanity and his sweat becomes blood: do not be afraid:* now drink and be strong! Take a look, my soul: do not be frightened!* (Julia) Stop them! stop them!* Jesus, it pierces one's heart!* (Jesus) Behold the second part, my soul: look at what they are doing!* (Julia) Jesus, support me!* (Jesus) My daughter, this is one small part that you see, but they do even worse to my Body: pray for these children of mine! (Julia) Jesus, give them your Light! (Jesus) My daughter, it is they who have chosen this way, I have given them my way, but they do not accept it: pray - pray - pray so that the scourges which surround you may be distanced from you! My souls, souls of my Heart, I come among you as a Baby, but I am not accepted: I am driven away! You kill me moment by moment! you do not even see that I am a Baby among you: And Mary, my Mother, with her Maternal Heart, sews for you thorns for making reparation for all the offences that you cause to my Heart and to the Father's Heart! My children, raise the WALLS that are collapsing, lift up the STONES one by one, my children, and be ready and prepared for the times that will come! I am bringing you my Light, my Love and my Holy Gospel: I bring you the Father's Shalom, my children, and I ask you to implore mercy - mercy – mercy from the Father. My children, you do not understand what I am saying to you, you are annoyed even when I speak here among you - and in the whole world! How little you listen to my Heart: when you go outside, you do not remember anything anymore and you take up living again according to the world! Ah, how pierced is my Fatherly Heart! How pierced is the Heart of my Beloved Mother! However she continues to knead and does not stop: her "Yes" is an enduring "Yes". Are you able to give your Yes? For how much time do you give it? Do you look around you, my children? Do you look to see if you can take at least a step? & whether your Yes lasts for one step? Ah, my children, how little you make your Yes last? How little you love your bodies - made in my image and likeness! You belong to me, you are my property because I have brought you to birth from my Heart: but you do not seek me as your Father! You do not embrace me when I come among you! You do not offer me a caress when I approach each of you: whereas I embrace you and hold you close to my Heart! I too desire your caresses, I want your caprices, your snuggles because I am a Baby and you my mothers: but you do not love me, my children! I come to touch your hearts and want them to burn with love: learn the Art of Love! learn to say: I love you! I love you! I do love you! And repeat it to every creature who approaches each of you: learn this word, but learn it firstly with the heart and then little by little you may lightly touch your lips saying: I love you! Make it blossom in your hearts, my children! Behold I am bringing you the School of Love, but do not be scandalised and do not think about earthly things: Think with your heart and let it act, refill it with love and with the Holy Spirit and let yourselves be taken by the hand - docile and small - like children and let your loving & giving be a giving of children because this is the way I want you ((to be)), little and docile, my children! Now, my cross, bring your children through the Door of the Childbirth and do not be frightened by the sea of blood that you see,* but drink also like my Little John:* drink this blood, my soul! (Julia) Father! Father! Father, support me!* (Jesus) Walk, my soul: bring your children! (Julia) There is the Pope again drinking blood and the Heavenly Mother is kneading too: it is sweet to stay united! (Jesus) Come, my daughter: let you too knead along with Mary!* Now, offer your kneading* to the world! My daughter, prepare your heart: prepare it! (Julia) Father! My Father!* (Jesus) My spouse and daughter, unite yourself to my Cross!* (Julia) Yes, my Lord and my God! (Jesus) Now, son Paschal, offer me a cup of bread and a glass of wine as sign of friendship and poverty because it is thus that I come among you, small & poor: but I bring you my Caprices, my Love & my Infinite Mercy. I bring you my caprices because I want to play with my spouses: let you play with me also, children, and do not be scandalised by my words! Now, MY FATHER, BLESS THIS BREAD AND THIS WINE: RENDER IT FRUITFUL IN LOVE AND GIVE IT TO HUMANITY.* (Julia) Father, my Father! (Jesus) My daughter, drink* drink again the green cup and suffer for your children who at this moment are trampling on my Body*. (Julia) Father! my Father! (Jesus) Daughter, stay united to my Cross!* Now offer the holy son to drink, offer my Little John to drink, the John whom I have sent among you: listen to his voice, my children! Little John, pull my Boat laden with my Gospel, make more knots(¶ ) my son, and do not stop, I am always at your side, I am not leaving you, always be mother and father for your children, make them grow up, make them walk on my thorns: And do not take them away, my children, accept the thorns that Little John (meaning Don Mario)° -symbol gives you. My son, walk always with the Gospel, offer it to the marginalised, to the drug-addict children, to the children in prison: bring them my Love and my Light. Now, drink, my son: drink!* Spouse of my Heart (= Julia), drink my cup and suffer again for humanity. (Julia) Father! my Father! (Jesus) Drink, my daughter:* offer it to my spouses to drink. My son, divide and unite the Love of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit: eat it and give it to your spouses and let them always be fruitful with the Father's Merciful Love because I am here among you to make you Mothers of the Cross: Mothers of the Blessed Eucharist. My children, I love you and give myself with love in the Sign of the Bread and Wine: and MY PEACE IS COMPLETE - MY LOVE IS COMPLETE BECAUSE I AM FATHER and I love you, I do love you, my children! Peace to you who are gathered here. Peace to you, children ((elsewhere)), who unite yourselves to this holy prayer. Peace to you who unite yourselves to my Heart. Peace to the sick whom you offer me. Peace: but let it be complete peace in your hearts! Now, my children, little ones of my Heart, be united - come near to me: draw near to my Heart because I want you near! Be conscious of this moment, do not forget that I am alive and real among you: unite your hearts and be one single thing only! Little cross of my Heart, draw near to the Nuptial Banquet. (Julia) Father! my Father! (Jesus) My spouse and daughter! (Julia) Father! Father! Father! (Jesus) Yes, my daughter! (Julia) Yes, Jesus!* (Jesus) TAKE THIS ALL OF YOU AND EAT IT: THIS IS MY BODY GIVEN TO YOU ALL IN THE FATHER'S GREAT MYSTERY. EAT IT IN ABUNDANCE. TAKE THIS ALL OF YOU AND DRINK FROM IT: THIS IS THE CUP OF MY BLOOD GIVEN TO YOU ALL IN THE GREAT MYSTERY OF THE FATHER. DRINK IT IN ABUNDANCE BECAUSE IT IS BLOOD OF NEW LIFE. Behold, I am given to everyone of you and my Easter is complete because I love you: THE FATHER'S MYSTERY IS FULFILLED IN A PIECE OF BREAD AND IN A GLASS OF WINE. My children, be conscious! - be aware! - be conscious that here among you it is I, the Master, your Jesus! Kneel down: contemplate my Love, contemplate my Heart, contemplate the Poor-Dwelling of Jesus, Joseph and Mary! My children, contemplate the Holy Family and let your poor-dwelling too be holy! let your living be holy! let your acting be holy! let your "Yes" be holy! Children of my Heart, now I leave you but I shall come again among you. Now I seal you through the holy Priest of Love and Peace and I ask you for these little sacrifices, my children: do not complain but offer them with love to the Father! Now I bless you with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Increase and multiply in the Father's Love. Holy son, little Mario, seal my little Julia and little Paschal with the Kiss of Love, with the Little John Kiss. My children, exchange yourselves too the seal of my Love, and I implore you: let it be for you a holy kiss; let it be for you a kiss to unite you to my Cross and do not think evil thoughts in your hearts & minds but let my Holy Kiss be a Sign of the Cross. Now, my children, join the Holy Chain and pray slowly with my Holy Fatherly Prayer. Contemplate every word, but contemplate it with the heart: let this holy prayer be for you a Total Union with the Father, let this holy praying and holy coming together in this little cottage of mine be for you a Living of Bread! Now let us pray, my children, but remember always: Lead us not into temptation! Remember it: let this holy prayer be a trumpet sound for you! Now let us pray! Praise and bless the Father for the graces that he makes descend upon you. Praised be the Father Most High always. (Julia) I love you, Jesus! (4). (Jesus) I also love you, spouses of my Heart and I wait for your caprices (we all say : I love you, Jesus). (Jesus) Thanks for having listened to my Word. My cross, now unite yourself in prayer and after finishing the holy prayer consume my Bread. Amen".
2) Friday 26/9/97, at 10.40a.m., at home, in crucifixion, orally
"Jesus speaks to the world: My children, do not be a scandal and do nothing that can harm the little ones. Let your life be a union of joy, poverty & simplicity and do not seek noise: the chaos of the world! Let everything be silence between you and God: let what you do for the little and the poor be done in silence. Rejoice after giving my Bread to the brethren, but do not boast: let everything be for the glory of God. Be careful not to take° - symbol the Father's place. Children, my enemy is astute and always stands to observe where you go wrong, therefore, my children, exercise charity, love and prayer and fight him thus because where there is love and openness of heart my enemy cannot dwell. Let you, Priest sons, administer your call with love and remember that I will come like I promised: be ready! Let you Four of my Cross, pull my Boat loaded with my Gospel and do not stop: I am always with you and do not leave you. With you I bless the world with the Tremendous Sign of the Holy Cross. Amen Amen Amen Amen."
3) Sunday 28/9/97, at Thurio, at the Mass of the new parish-priest.
Julia writes: "At Thurio's church, a vision on Sunday 28 (September 1997, at 11.35 approx.) I saw a GREAT HOST which came down from heaven and as it descended the church was filled with BLOOD and out from the Blood came SMALL HOSTS. In each of the hosts there was A LITTLE BABY and from their small mouths more Hosts came out. Then an inscription appeared which said: I AM THE GOD OF ANCIENT TIMES. THERE ARE NO OTHER GODS OUTSIDE OF ME. On the inscription there was also a BIG CROSS and a BOAT".
4) Sunday 28/9/97, at 15.25, at the Oak, in the usual manner
"(Julia) If it is you glorify the Father (3). (Our Lady) Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be world without end. Amen.* My daughter, drink today too my Jesus' green cups* and sacrifice yourself this day with the pains of childbirth* for humanity.* My daughter, drink this cup and accept these thorns as a present for your feast (= her 40th birthday).* My daughter, burden yourself with my Jesus' Cross and walk - walk on because the way is still long: work for souls who do not want to hear the Living Word of my Jesus. I invite ye to hold high today's Gospel (26/B). My children, open-wide your arms and receive the Living Cross of my Jesus who is here among you, my children, and he is the greatest gift that God the Father gives to each of you and to humanity: be conscious of these words of mine, my children, little ones of my Heart! The times that are coming down on humanity are heavy: my children, make them light with prayer, with accepting the Light of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Do not let yourselves be dragged along by my enemy: do not run to obscure places but seek the Light of the Gospel and take refuge in it. My children, drink the green cups too, help my Jesus, burden yourselves with the Holy Cross and do not take these words of mine as repetition: let them be fresh flowers for each of you and stay ever alive in your hearts, do not let them die, my children! Today I want to speak to the YOUTH, to the flowers of my Paradise: My sons and daughters, make your hearts available, let my Jesus' Light & Love come in, be instruments of peace, love and happiness, knead the Father's flour into dough along with me, leave the world and approach the Cross: My children, mothers of my Jesus, mothers of the Father, let yourselves be moulded by the Fire of Pentecost and do not be scandalised by these words of mine! I am the Mother of the Cross and I ask you to bring the Holy Wood to humanity. My children, be always ready for the three days of darkness that will come, put on the garment of the Cross and do not fear anything or anybody - fight the Battle of Love and know that my Immaculate Heart will triumph and this triumph is near, my children, even if you do not know either the day or the hour, but let your heart be the poor-dwelling of the Most Holy Trinity: offer all of yourselves to the Father, my children! Little cross of my Jesus, ask the Priest sons to make holy processions, remind them always to take away paganism: say it with poor words and do not be frightened, my daughter, approach them and with the Holy Spirit's Love ask them to walk with the Holy Cross. (Julia) Mother, how can I do this? (Our Lady) Little stubborn one of my Heart, do it and do not be afraid of anything or anybody: the Holy Spirit will speak. Now, my creature accept again with love the pains of childbirth.* (Julia) Yes, Mother, but give me the strength and constancy! (Our Lady) Go ahead and bring your children through the Door of Childbirth: but always remember to hold up my Jesus' Living Gospel and make it held-high also for your children. My children, I ask you to pray according to my intentions as Immaculate and Sorrowful Mother, pray - pray - pray: but pray with the heart! Form the Holy Family and always stay united in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, little ones of my Heart! make Love triumph! raise up holy praises to God the Father! My children, I read each of your hearts and with motherly love I bless your hearts* and bring your heart-beats before the Father's Throne: be conscious of these words of mine, be conscious of my living and real presence among you. Form the Holy Chain, form it, children, and pray in your hearts, pray in the silence of your hearts: UNITE YOURSELVES to the Holy Prayer of the Most Holy Eucharist.* Bless and praise God for the Graces that he gives you. Bless and praise God for the Bread that he offers you. Bless and praise God for his Body and his Blood. My children, now I leave you but I will come again into your midst to bring you the Father's Living Word. Always be conscious of my presence among you and let your hearts be always alight with the Holy Spirit's Love. I bless you with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Increase and multiply in the Holy Sign of the Most Holy Eucharist. Living cross of my Jesus, suffer again in the Silence of the Cross for your children. (Julia) Yes, Mother! (Our Lady) Praise (4). Praised be the Most Holy Names of Jesus, Joseph and Mary. Amen. My cross, pray!"
5) Thursday 2/10//97, at 21.04, at home, in the customary manner
If you are my Jesus glorify the Father (4).* (Jesus)
Glory be to the Father Most High as it was in the beginning, is now and ever
shall be world without end. Amen.* Peace to you, children of my Heart!*
It is I, your Jesus, the Sacrificed Lamb* is here among you: rejoice and
celebrate, spouses of my Heart!*
but be careful:
and do not prostrate yourselves to other gods! Cross of my Heart*,
drink these cups:* they are even more green*, my soul! drink them
and accept again your childbirth pains* and mine: Be
aware, little stubborn one, that they are even stronger!* (Julia)
Jesus, clasp my hands!* (Jesus) Little stubborn
one, Easter is approaching and the pains are always stronger.*
I offer you my Cross, place yourself on it: - but when you are not able
((for the pain)), cry out!* (Julia) Jesus, what have
they done to you? you are pouring blood! (Jesus) You are stubborn
and capricious, my soul: I tell you to cry out and you ask me what have they
done! (Julia) Forgive me, Jesus! (Jesus) I did not
want to reproach you, my soul! I accept with love what you offer me but your
body is weighed down and you are not able: so cry out, my soul!
(Julia) Jesus, I ask your forgiveness, but if it is possible do not
make me cry out: do what you want, my Lord and my God!* (Jesus)
Good, let us walk together, my soul: make ((others) hold up my Living
Gospel always, open-wide your arms on the Holy Wood of the Cross and clasp all
your children close to yourself, pray a great deal for my Little John, namely
for the Pope, pray for the Priest Sons, my daughter, because the scourges stoop
down even more on humanity & on the Church! (Julia) Jesus, mercy!
mercy! mercy! (Jesus) My soul, you see there are few of you to
drink the green cups: many little Johns fall into my enemy's net! Pray*
pray, my soul: I beg you, be careful not to become proud! (Julia)
Jesus, do not let me become so! (Jesus) Do not be afraid, my soul:
always stay united to my Cross and be careful not to reveal the secret messages.
Be aware that my enemy watches out for your mistakes - stop him with the Holy
Shield, fight him with love, prayer and charity: but let it be sincere charity,
my children! Love one another and forgive one another mutually. Imitate the
Holy Servant of the Cross, become little
and poor like he lived, imitate him, my children: contemplate, like he
contemplated, the Holy Cross and Mary's Sorrowful Heart! Now look again into
your hearts and take away all that is not pleasing to my Heart: take away
hatred! Look again, my children, clean your hearts fully: let the rays of
my Love come in!* Accept with love the persecutions that will come: my
children, be aware that because of my Name you will still be persecuted, know
that on account of loving me you will be persecuted again but do not be
frightened, I am always with you and together we are one single family, the
Family of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit and of Mary's Immaculate Heart, my
Mother and your Mother.
"YES" YOU MUST RAISE UP TO THE FATHER! My children,
OF THE IMMACULATE AND SORROWFUL HEART OF MARY! Now, stop again and look
into your hearts - see if the Little Plant of Love has sprouted: water it
and make it grow, my children! Now knead the flour into dough, but do
not be scandalised by what I am saying, dear children! My soul, offer my bread
to the Priest sons: knead Mary's flour for them. (Julia)
Yes, Jesus! (Jesus) See: Mary too is kneading-dough
along with your angel (= it is her 6th miscarried pregnancy, she
tells later). Julia: Yes, Jesus! (Jesus)
Now, go ahead, walk on, my soul: bring your children through the Door of
Childbirth.* (Julia) Jesus,* there is too much
blood:* there is a sea of blood!* Jesus*, it is falling on
all sides!* (Jesus) Do not be frightened, my soul!*
drink - drink the blood and go forward!* (Julia) Jesus,
give me strength and constancy!* (Jesus) My daughter, these
are the last times that you will pass through the Door of Blood; after these
more chastisements will happen! (Julia) Mercy!* Mercy!*
(Jesus) Do not be afraid, my soul, all this must be fulfilled:
afterwards the Sun of Mary's Immaculate Heart will shine forth! Pray
because you do not know either the hour or the day: pray - pray and prepare your
hearts (Julia kneels down, prays with her hands joined and drinks of the
mystic-cup). Prepare your hearts, my children,
with constant prayer: with the prayer addressed to the Father! Now, we
are one single thing because we have prayed, my daughter: lavish your love on
humanity, suffer* in the Silence of the Cross, as you know how to do, but
make((people)) hold up my Gospel, my Truth & my Love. My children, do
not be scandalised by my Love: always be conscious of my living and real
presence in your midst! Now, son Paschal, offer me a cup of bread and a glass of
wine as a sign of friendship and poverty because it is like this that I come
among you: I AM A BABY
who comes to dwell in each of you and I COME THROUGH A PIECE OF BREAD AND
A GLASS OF WINE. My
children, with this I invite you to be poor and disposed to give yourselves to
your brothers. Now, MY
Behold, my children, this is my
this is my PEACE,
this is my COMPLETE EASTER
that I offer you: receive it and make it grow in each of you!
Now, my daughter, offer it to drink to the holy son:* Eternal
shepherd of my flock, always pull the Boat loaded with my Gospel and make more
knots, my son, do not stop, be strong because we still must combat together, my
son. Now drink, let you too drink the Cup of Childbirth and suffer with your
spouses: drink!*, my son. My soul, drink also the cup of
your childbirth and mine and suffer too with your spouses:* now offer
((it to them)) to drink! My son, divide and unite the Love of the
Father, Son and Holy Spirit, eat it and give it to your spouses, make them grow
in the Fruitful Love of the Holy Spirit: my son, divide and unite it!
Behold, the Bread and Wine that I have given you is the Mystery of the
Father's Fullness: in the eating and drinking be conscious of eating with your
Jesus. Stop a moment and contemplate the Bread and Wine that I have given
you, my children:* I have eaten and drunk with you, my children!
Now prepare your hearts: prepare them! (Julia) Father: my
Father! Father: my Father! (Jesus) My daughter and spouse, unite
yourself! (Julia) Father, it is sweet to be with you: your Heart
is immense! (Jesus) Daughter, unite yourself to the Embrace of the
Cross! (Julia) Father! Father! (Jesus)
Behold, I am given to each one of you and my Easter is complete because I love
you, my children: I love you and want you ((to be)) holy in my Name,
in my Truth, & in my Fullness of Father, Son and Holy Spirit! Now, my children,
I leave you but I will come again among you, do not be afraid. I leave you and
sign you with my Holy Kiss, with the Little John Kiss, receive it with love and
be conscious of what you receive: be conscious of what my holy son offers you!
My son, seal with my Kiss - Little Julia, little Paschal and your children. My
children, do not be scandalised by my Love: but be conscious that I am alive and
real among you! I bless you with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Praised be the
Father Most High always. My children, always praise God for what he gives you
moment by moment. Be ready and prepared, my children, because the times are eminent!
Now join the Holy Chain and pray slowly with my Holy Fatherly Prayer. Remember
always: Lead us not into temptation! Let this word be a trumpet blast for
each of you, my children! Now let us pray! Thanks, my children, try again to
improve your steps: this is not a reproach, its an invitation of love to make
you improve more! Always be children of Light and Peace! Little
cross, at the end of the prayer consume my BreadÖ
. (Julia) Yes, Jesus! I love you, Jesus! (3).
I also love you, beloved spouses of my Heart and I wait for your caprices (we
say: I love you, Jesus). (Jesus) Thanks, little ones of my
Heart! My daughter, recollect yourself in prayer!* Julia
Thanks, Jesus!" [Ö
& consumed by her, after ecstasy]

Sometimes, it's just hard to turn that damn program off. But it was a good 17 hour stretch. I was not doing any repairs or entity work. It was all fun building with brushes. I decided to do a massive overhaul on the Blu industrial area on my map. But I doubt I will be doing that kinda long stretch ever again. My fingers ache to the bone. My fingertips feel like I scraped them along a sidewalk :woot:

Here are five home improvement mistakes you should avoid.
Taking On More Than You Can Handle
One common mistake is for homeowners to take on an ambitious project that requires more time, money, or expertise than they currently possess. They start a project they are unable to finish and are left with a big mess that can reduce the value of their home.
Make sure you do plenty of research before you begin a project, so you know exactly what it entails. Know what you can handle yourself, and what aspects of the project might require professional support.
Neglecting Home Security
Many homeowners also neglect home security when updating their property. Home security might not be as exciting as a new kitchen or bathroom, but it is unquestionably essential. Invest in safety features like steel doors, security lighting, and updated locks before you turn to showier projects.
Improving For A Future Buyer
Although it is important to think about how home improvement projects will impact your home's market value, make sure that you are thinking of your own wishes as well. Many homeowners base their projects on the needs of a future buyer, rather than their own desires. Your home should be comfortable and appealing to you as the current owner as well.
Installing A Swimming Pool
Although the idea of installing a swimming pool might seem appealing, many homeowners regret this choice. Swimming pools are expensive to maintain, are often only usable part of the year, and can be a serious safety risk.
Failing To Involve Your Spouse
Make sure that you and your spouse are on the same page about any home improvements. Good communication is vital for a healthy relationship. Talk through any plans and solicit your partner's input before you begin any major project, especially any that require a significant financial outlay or would disrupt your partner's living space.
Improving your property can give you a real sense of ownership and improve your quality of life, especially if you can avoid some of the most common home improvement mistakes. By making smart decisions about what to update or improve, your home will be a safe haven for your family and a sound investment in your future.

When Fawad Khan and Deepika Padukone were seen together for Manish Malhotra's opening show in Delhi at the India Couture Week in July, they appeared to be just acquaintances having met over social gatherings and galas. However, it wasn't till after the show that the two continued to stay in touch and became friends.
As Pinkvilla.com reports, Manish told Pinkvilla.com after the show,
"I was extremely impressed with his professionalism and attitude. He came and practiced his walk. To celebrate the show, very few of us met afterwards where we discussed movies over food. I must say, I'm very impressed with how well behaved he is. We all had a great time together."
Deepika continued to build on her relationship with Fawad, and it wasn't long after that she hung out with him along with Manish and Anushka Sharma on the sets of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. Earlier during the month at the wrap party of the film in Taj Lands End, Mumbai, Pinkvilla.com says the two were seen together as professionals discussing movies, actors and other similar interests. However, one thing is for sure, Deepika is very impressed by Fawad.
Sources tell us that Deepika has become very fond of Fawad and wishes for him to be a part of the upcoming Sanja Leela's film Padmavati. Though, rumours have it that Deepika has a confirmed role in the film, she also opts for Fawad and sees him fit for the male lead in the film.
If this is true, the duo of Deepika and Fawad in one movie together will be one to surely watch out for!

Nintendo officially announced today that their next handheld console, called the "3DS", is on the way. The new console, as Nintendo showed off today, will build on the tech trend growing in TV and film, playing games in 3D. At first glance, the physical console looks like a another iteration of the DS; it has dual screens and the same button layout as Nintendo's current console. The similarity is boon, though, as the 3DS will be backwards compatible, playing the entire DS and DSi library. As for the release date, Nintendo only said that the console would launch in Japan sometime before March, 2011. Ultimately, Nintendo didn't actually say much about the console, but a more comprehensive unveiling will definitely be coming at E3 in June.
If you have been following the rumblings of industry pundits and rumor-mills, then the fact that Nintendo has announced that they're making a new portable console comes as little surprise: Rumors of the so-called "DS Successor" have been floating around for months. Some have even speculated that Sony may also present the PSP2 at E3, kick-starting the next-gen handheld console war.
UPDATE: Rumors have already begun circulating, filling in some of the blanks left by Nintendo's bare-bones announcement. According to two separate Japanese business magazines, Nikkei and Asahi, the 3DS achieves its three-dimensional using a technology called a "Paralax Barrier", developed by Sharp. The illusion is achieved by using a second overlapping screen with a series of slits; the result is that the player sees a different set of pixels with each eye, which is perceived as depth. The trades also mention a special D-Pad for moving in 3D, built-in rumble support, and a tilt sensor, similar to the iPhone.
We will keep you updated on the rumors and announcements as they come.

EWL's October Exchange marked 12 months (almost to the day) since we launched in the Midlands, and we certainly networked in style 24 floors up, with stunning views of Birmingham from the Champagne suite at Hotel Indigo.
The event hosted Inspired Director and Founder Ben Cole, and You select and search co-founder and director Robert Kenward, only skimmed the surface in terms of the rising challenge of economic uncertainty in the event industry.
Following a fantastic lunch the exchange debate covered internal and external brand, career perception and qualifications, attracting and retaining talent and future generations.
Here's a little video we put together with some images from the event:
We're looking forward to the next EWL exchange debating networking, mentoring and wellbeing on November 17th at Hotel Football, Manchester.

Although Sierra Leone is pretty much home for me now, it's still nice to go 'home' - to the Netherlands/USA (read: where family is) - for a break. It is true that when I am in Sierra Leone I am pretty content and have learnt to deal with various issues in daily life. However, once I'm 'home' I must say there are things I love about being 'home'. Here's my top 7:
1. Family. Siblings, siblings-in-law, parents, nieces, nephew. Need I say more?
2. Electricity. All day and every day. I can actually charge my phone and laptop at anytime. And I'm not getting electrocuted!
3. Running water. Excellent showers without having to kneel due to poor water pressure or use a bucket due to no water at all and I can drink water straight from the tap.
4. Different fruits. Fruits in Salone are great, but I have really enjoyed fruits that we don't have there such as strawberries, cherries, (orange) oranges, plums and blackberries.
5. Peaceful neighborhood. No barking dogs or house parties at night and I can walk around town without being hissed at, shouted 'white man' at, etc. I can walk in silence and no one will feel offended and sometimes that is just really nice.
6. Dairy. Delicious milk, yummy yoghurt, real cheese (as opposed to laughing cow) and ice cream.
7. Friends. I didn't get to see very many of you due to my short visits, but have definitely enjoyed seeing some of you again. There's nothing like getting together with friends after being away for months and picking up where you left off. I'm thankful for deep friendships!

Someone on my timeline shared an article the other day about 'Helicopter Mums'. Now, I had no idea what one of those was (turns out its someone who watches their child super closely, they hover and intervene before risk becomes an issue). But there are are so many terms for what type of parent you are it can get confusing. There are the;
'Tiger Mums' – These guys are strict. They're instilling some sort of competitive edge in their children apparently so they become successful adults. Their kids are amazing at sport, they are amazing at maths, they are generally just amazing (or as I like to call them – little fuckers) and boy don't they know it.
'Consultant Mums' – these guys bring their kids up on guidance and consultancy. Lots of love and logic but no real rules as such. These mums are more friend, less parent.
'Drill Sergeant Mums' – These guys are pretty ruthless. They command and direct every aspect of their childrens lives. No options or leeway. They could give the Tiger Mums a run for their money and can generally be found screaming from the sidelines of any Sunday pre-school football game.
'The Super Mum' – (secretly everyone HATES these Mums. And by hate I mean envy) These guys are the ones all over your social media feeds with the 'perfect kids'. They always cook everything from scratch, they get the end of term presents spot on, they do arts and crafts at the weekends, they never shout.
'Cougar Mum' – These are the Mums who actively pursue sexual relationships with younger men…oh shit wait. Wrong post. Never mind.
Now…me? Well I've decided I'm definitely more a 'Work In Progress Mum'.
For a start, my house is normally only ever 50% tidy. Ok, maybe more 40% (20% on weekends). I have three children, who don't like to tidy their shit up or even seem capable of flushing a toilet. We have a lot of 'stuff'. Which is fine, because I like stuff, but actually none of it belongs to me. There are bikes, and scooters, and balance bikes, and wobble boards (no idea either), and toy buggys and school bags and actually now school has started there are letters. And by god do we get a million letters a week. Now most of them are guff, or by the time they come home the event mentioned in said letter has passed and I've forgotten about it BUT some of them are important. So of course they get added to the 'read me' pile in the corner of the kitchen. And they stay there until the end of term when I just usually bin them all. I start each week with a mantra of 'this week I'll tidy the house and put all the ironing away'. Yeah…work in progress.
Secondly, I don't cook enough. Now this isn't because I can't cook or don't enjoy cooking. If I had it my own way I would make everything from scratch and buy organic and free-range and my kids would eat broccoli and sweet potato. Just not aubergine. Never aubergine. I just normally don't have the time to cook. Monday-Friday we leave the house at 7:25am and I work until 5:45pm. On the days that I happen to finish earlier I can throw together a pretty tasty Spag Bol or Chilli but more often than I (or my bank balance) would like we eat take out pizza or the girls have a packed lunch at After School Club for their tea (thank GOD for hot school dinners is all I'm saying). Again, I start each weekend promising to batch cook and freeze it in appropriate portion sizes and whatnot, and sometimes if I'm feeling really adventurous I'll threaten to dig the slow cooker out (it was wedding present (got married in 2008) and it's still in the box) but these things haven't happened as of yet. So yeah…work in progress.
Thirdly, I'm not massively organised. Some weeks I am shit hot, I nail the snacks, the kids wear clean uniform every day, I get up at 6am and they eat weetabix and banana for breakfast and I don't forget about any after school activities. But some weeks I am less shit hot and more mediocre. I'll forget to send water bottles to school, or there will be a 'bring £1 to wear pajamas' and my girls will be the only ones in uniform, or we've run out of milk so they eat chocolate twists for breakfast in the car on the way to work because I've snoozed the alarm and we're running late. I try to be organised and two days into the new term I've not forgotten anything yet but definitely still a work in progress.
And lastly, well lastly, our life is a work in progress. Our whole working/studying/life balance changes quite a lot. We get used to one rota and then something happens and we have to adjust. The girls change month to month with attitude and age and what they like and what they eat, hell the baby has suddenly started waking up in the middle of the night and that in itself has thrown everyone off. Everything in our lives is a work in progress. It doesn't make it wrong. It does make it superior to the super mum who has everything worked out (hell I wish I was that Mum most days). Nor does it make it less effective than the helicopter Mum who is monitoring her child's every move (if all mine are in their beds by the time I fall asleep I call that a win). I wish my house was spotless 24/7. I wish I cooked every night. I wish I was organised every day. But I'm not, and I probably won't ever be. There will always be something that throws something off and that's fine. I am a Work In Progress Mum and I'm good with that…

Outreaching Kafka and Dante: footwear democracy in India
by snowden1984
It is a pity that India as a land of snake-charmers and other amusing exotica does not exist. If it did, then hundreds of millions would not have to live where parliamentarians feel empowered to repeatedly strike a 60-year-old with their footwear because they were assigned an economy-class seat in an airplane instead of a privileged one in business-class.
The Kafkaesque about this recent incident is that the plane had only economy-class seating.
The Dantesque is that the Honorable Member of Parliament then went on to publicly not just admit his guilt but crudely boast of it.
But then imagination ceases, because the political party this gentleman represents has brazenly called for a public protest — in favor of the gentleman and against the resulting ban by the airline on this legislator flying with them again.
Not a criminal prosecution for assault, not a resignation from Parliament, not a contrite apology — that is what one might expect in a civilized country. Instead, the wielder of the footwear-as-instrument-of-debasement is being defended by a street demonstration, which is a legitimate action in a democracy, in the world's largest democracy, in a democracy where willing slaves choose their own tormentors.
If the premises of the Indian Parliament were to be used to offer snake-charming courses instead, would it not be more conducive to the dignity of man?

On October 17, 2014, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Mexico's Tax Administration Service (SAT) signed a mutual recognition arrangement aimed at linking CBP's Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) and SAT's New Certified Companies Scheme (NEEC). The arrangement is intended to help secure and facilitate global cargo trade.
Benefits for program members will include:
- Fewer exams when shipping cargo
- A faster validation process
- Common standards
- Efficiency for Customs and business
- Transparency between Customs administrations
- Business resumption
- Front-of-the-line processing
- Marketability
Earlier this year, the U.S. and Mexico entered another partnership aimed at promoting the safety of fresh agricultural products. The two countries are forming multiple partnerships related to trade since Mexico is one of the United States' largest trading partners. In 2013, Mexico was the 3rd largest supplier of imports to the US and was the 2nd largest market for US exports.
Though partnerships are making trade between the two countries safer and easier, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) still has plentiful requirements for foreign companies distributing food and beverages, drugs, medical devices, or cosmetics in the United States. FDA and CBP work together at U.S. ports of entry to ensure compliance. Mexican companies must register with FDA, follow strict labeling requirements, and maintain a U.S. Agent for FDA communications.
Registrar Corp, an FDA compliance firm, can assist Mexican companies with all of these requirements and more. Visit our site to see all of the services we offer. If you have any questions about FDA regulations for companies located outside the U.S., contact Registrar Corp at 1-757-224-0177 or speak to a Regulatory Specialists 24 hours a day at: https://www.registrarcorp.com/livehelp.

Why you should learn Tagalog at the KPC!
by Allan
Considering my mind set is purely focused right now on getting back to North American reality, this will be my last note on my Philippines trip. It's an important one though, as I hope Filipino-Canadians who plan to go back to the Philippines seriously consider learning or reviewing/refreshing their Tagalog.
The reasons I stress the importance of learning Tagalog was that during my experience in the Philippines, if you don't have anyone that speaks English as well as you do, you're always going to have a constant feeling of misunderstanding. The action of redundancy & constantly trying to get your relatives or whomever trying to understand your point of view will get very frustrating.
My relatives & their friends, all university educated weren't familiar with some of the expressions & terms I used & quite a few times I had to explain over & over what I wanted, although I was being very clear. At shopping malls & districts, I found myself (although I looked like one of the locals) being hustled because I spoke like a foreigner because they didn't understand what I wanted, although it was just as simple as getting a bigger shoe size or a bigger size for a shirt. Bargaining was already a lost battle or the vendor would only give me a minimal discount.
The KPC has some great Tagalog teachers & a great system to match & when the opportunity presents itself, I'm going to take full advantage of the situation & learn Tagalog fully so the next time I'm a Balikbayan I won't be as lost as I was.
Take advantage of a great opportunity like Tagalog lessons at the KPC when there offered!
Do you speak Tagalog? Are you interested in learning? What are the factors that would attract you to actually take lessons? What would turn you off?

My dad wasn't an openly religious man. Like almost everything about him, he was private about his faith.
He enrolled us in Catechism classes in the local Polish school but he rarely guided us in any path of faith. He would rarely ask us to go to church with him – with only one exception.
For Easter Sunday, we all had to go. The entire family and there were no excuses or exceptions. Christmas was different. He didn't feel the same need as he thought that Easter reflected the importance of faith.
For Christmas, he would share with us the Polish custom of opłatek, which is the unblessed communion wafer.
Easter service for the Polish community was pretty boring for a young boy. Older men would cry at the end while they sang hymns of their beloved Poland that they missed. Most were former WWII veterans that refused to return to a Communist country. And Argentina was so far away from Poland, geographically and culturally.
So, for our family, six boys plus mom, it wasn't terribly hard to follow my dad's request. Dad was not much into sports, but mom was a passionate hockey player and felt that sports helped build character. She loved us playing rugby, even if two of my brothers went for field hockey like her. She was very happy about that.
When we were younger, it was easy to accommodate church as most games were not played on Sundays or if they were, it was very early so making it to church on time was not a problem.
But in 1976 things were different. I had been preselected for a junior team representing Buenos Aires the year before. This preselection was a very good sign for selection to the 'Pumitas' (Pumas under 18) that would be chosen in 1976. I had also changed clubs to Pueyrredon, where my high school coach and mentor was one of the founding members.
Angel Guastella was also the Pumas coach and the club's first team. 'Papuchi' had a strong word in everything dealing with rugby and being in his club with the possibility of continuing to be coached by him was a fantastic chance.
The last warm up game before the season started was on Easter Sunday at 9:00 AM. That barely gave me time to play, a very quick shower and rush to the Church to catch my dad's angry expression arriving probably a few minutes late.
Clearly, my dad did not approve of me playing, but my mom talked to him and encouraged me to play and get back as soon as possible. She knew what both things meant to dad and me. The week of Easter rained torrentially almost every day.
We arrived to the club and were told that we couldn't use the Number 1 playing field as we would ruin it for the season. So we were told to play in the practice pitch, a mud pile under the best of circumstances but now given the copious rain, it was almost impossible.
Surprisingly, Guastella agreed to referee our 'friendly' game, under the rain, and wearing long Adidas active pants and top.
The whole game was awful due to the weather and the slippery leather ball made any play an adventure. Everything else was rather predictable. Except, in the last minute of the game, the opposing team kicks a ball behind our replacement left wing. He is supposed to dive on it but panics.
I dive on the ball and the attacking player, attempting to kick the ball has the misfortune of tangling with my arms, breaking my right arm and dislocating my right elbow. This wasn't good. They took me to the shower to get rid of all the mud covering my body.
Cut the rugby shirt and put my arm in a sling and drove me to the British Hospital, where we had health coverage. The hospital was more than one hour away from the club. Needless to say, I didn't make it to Church on time.
The orthopedic surgeon didn't come to the hospital until many hours later, and it was probably around 4 or 5PM when my elbow was back in place and my arm in a cast. My dear friend Rafael, who came with me to the hospital called home from the hospital's public phone and my dad answered at home:
Rafael: Hi Mr S! This is Rafael. I am at the British Hospital with Charlie. He is OK…
Dad: Click (he hangs up)
Mom at home: What was that?
Dad: Your son is in the hospital.
Mom: What?!!!
Rafael dials home again and my mother answers.
Rafael: Hi, this is Rafael…
Mom: Where are you? What is going on?
Rafael explains the situation and my mom agrees to go pick me up at the hospital. Mom arrives around one hour later with dad who wouldn't say a word to me. He refused to speak with me for close to one month, mumbling once that God had some idea of what happened if you missed Easter Mass.
My dad has left us many years ago. His luck had finally run out. Being born in poverty in Poland, surviving the camps in Siberia, the battles of WWII, but eventually disease got him.
We made peace, of course. But now, every Easter I think even more of him and when I see rugby for that day I take a moment to pause, catch myself shedding a tear and deciding that this is not a day for me for rugby.
I can now watch the game later. I go to Church and think of him.
I never made it to the Pumitas that year. The recovery was slow and I had a lot of issues to deal with as a result of the serious injury. It took me a very long time to recover my confidence.
Wesołych Świąt Wielkanocnych, tatusz!
[That's Happy Easter in Polish]

Much of the NCAA attention (and TV dollars) goes towards men's football and men's basketball, and that helps to determine rankings of power schools, but what if we counted all Division I team titles? That's what a piece published at StatisticalFuture.org Monday does, breaking down the total Division I team titles through July 1, 2016. Here's the graph they came up with:
It's not particularly surprising to see UCLA, Stanford and USC at the top (and other Pac-12 schools like Cal and Oregon up relatively high), as those schools have long been famed for their excellence in many of the sports that are most prominent at the Olympics; in this past summer's Rio Games, Cal, USC, Stanford and UCLA had more current and former athletes combined than all other conferences except the SEC, and the Pac-12 as a whole had 273 athletes there. (And that's before you get to other sports where those schools have dominated, such as UCLA's long run of men's basketball titles.)
What's really remarkable is the #12 school here, the University of Denver. The Denver Pioneers came in ahead of Florida, Oregon, Georgia and Ohio State, to say nothing of all the prominent sports schools that didn't even make the top 15. How'd they get them? Well, by this cut-off (July 1, 2016), Denver had 31 championships; one in men's lacrosse, seven in men's hockey, and an astounding 23 in skiing (men's only before 1983, men's and women's combined since then). Since then, they've added another men's hockey championship, which would put them even closer to Michigan and California.
Does that mean Denver's more successful in sports than the likes of Oregon and Ohio State? Not really. Most of their titles come in a sport where those other schools don't even compete. And Ohio State and Oregon are certainly making more money from their overall athletic program (and spending more on it, too) than Denver is. It's not an apples-to-apples comparison. But it's worth remembering that, as with the Olympics, marquee team events still only count for one gold medal or one title. Winning a NCAA football or basketball championship will get you more attention, but there are plenty of these other championships out there too. And there's something to be said for an approach like Denver's, where they don't compete in everything (they have 17 varsity teams and don't compete in many sports, including football; by contrast, Cal has 30 varsity teams and Ohio State has 37) but focus on a few strong areas. It's certainly worked out well for them.

Health Care Glossary Released for Asian Pacific Islanders
Article Source:
Equal Voice For Families
Original Post Date: December 8, 2015
A free glossary listing commonly-used health care terms in Asian and Pacific Islander languages is now available to help more people enroll in insurance coverage under the the Affordable Care Act, according to a California-based national grassroots coalition.
The Health Insurance Enrollment Glossary, released by Action for Health Justice, lists about 100 terms in English, Chinese (traditional), Korean, Vietnamese, Laotian, Marshallese, Tagalog and Tongan.
More languages will be available in the near future. The open enrollment period for coverage under the federal health care law started on Nov. 1 and will end on Jan. 31, 2016.
The glossary, led by a coalition including Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Los Angeles, was launched last year because grassroots and health care organizations found a lack of reference tools to assist Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders navigate the enrollment process. For 2015, the new glossary languages, as of early December, are: Laotian, Marshallese, Tagalog and Tongan.
To receive a copy, Action for Health Justice asks people and grassroots organizations to fill out an online web form or a Google doc form. After that, people will be able to download the Health Insurance Enrollment Glossary.
In the near future, Action for Health Justice expects to have the glossary available in Burmese, Chuukese, Hindi, Hmong and Khmer.
The words in the glossary are common among health care practitioners and insurance providers, Action for Health Justice said in a Dec. 1 statement. The words also can be confusing in many communities unless they are provided in native languages.
As a group, about a third of all Asian Pacific Islanders in the country have challenges when it comes to speaking, reading or writing English, according to the coalition. To bridge this gap, coalition members worked with community and health care organizations, especially ones that specialize in outreach and insurance enrollment.
The Association of Asian Pacific Community Health Organizations is a key member of the coalition, which includes the Charles B. Wang Community Health Center, South Asian Network, Hmong American Partnership and the National Tongan American Society.
Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Los Angeles is also part of the Health Justice Network, which is helping people enroll in health coverage.
Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Los Angeles advocates for civil rights and provides legal services and education to serve the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities.

Wales 'get out of jail' to beat Italy for 11th straight win
ITALY - Wales coach Warren Gatland conceded his experimental side "got out of jail" as they struggled to a 26-15 win over Italy in the Six Nations on Saturday to equal their best run of 11 straight Test wins.
Josh Adams and Owen Watkin touched down in Rome following the break with Dan Biggar laying the groundwork for victory with 14 of his side's points.
Italy crossed for two tries through Braam Steyn and Edoardo Padovani but the Azzurri fell to their 19th consecutive defeat in the tournament.
"It wasn't a great performance today but sometimes you have to win ugly," said Gatland.
"We got out of jail. We weren't as accurate as we could. We didn't play that well but we'll take a win and move on and start thinking about England.
"We were looking at the bigger picture, we wanted to everyone an opportunity to be involved in the first two games," the New Zealander said.
Wales made it two wins out of two after last weekend's 24-19 win over France in Paris, and go top of the Six Nations table.

Democrat Kathy Hochul's victory in NY-26 last night shows the impact of a tremendous House GOP overreach, one that could easily cost them control of the chamber next year.
The fact that third-party candidate Jack Davis only took 9% of the vote, and yet Hochul still was able to win comfortably, shows that he was less of a factor than at first assumed. Republicans trying to comfort themselves with the fact that Hochul only took 47-48% of the vote, no different than Democrats in 2006 in the district, don't seem to be recognizing that in 2006, Democrats took 31 seats in the House. They only need 24 now to regain control.
As David Nir reports, Hochul was also severely underfunded in this race:
The GOP spent an absolute fortune on this race. Not counting outside money, Corwin alone spent about $2.6 million of her own money to get about 40,000 votes. That comes out to $68/vote. By contrast, Meg Whitman spent approximately $144 million out of her own pocket — a record — to net about 4 million votes in last year's gubernatorial race in California. That comes out to roughly $35/vote. Kathy Hochul raised very well, but she was most certainly outspent.
As for outside money, the main spenders for Corwin were $700K by Karl Rove's American Crossroads, $100K by the American Action Network, and $425K by the NRCC (totaling about $1.2 million). For Hochul, it wound up as $371K from the House Majority PAC, $111K from the Communications Workers of America, $75K from 1199 SEIU 1199, and $267K from the DCCC (totalling $824K). Hochul herself raised around a million bucks.
Hochul won this race because she did what good politicians do – find their opponent's vulnerability and focus on it relentlessly until Election Day. After running initial ads about denying driver's licenses to undocumented immigrants, Hochul switched gears and made the entire race about Medicare, and she had a winning message for that issue. Corwin, trapped by the conservative base, could never talk her way out of the hole Paul Ryan dug for her.
By all rights, this should make Medicare the definitive issue of the 2012 election, and should take any Medicare cuts completely off the table as a policy matter. Unlike Corwin, who merely endorsed it, 235 House members actually voted for the Ryan budget that ends Medicare and replaces it with a coupon for seniors to purchase expensive health insurance. Why you would put them at risk for a plan that will never happen is beyond me. If you're going to ruin the careers of much of your party and possibly lose control of one branch of Congress in the process, the least you can do is actually enact the policy that causes it!
With some exceptions, Democrats have ranged from reluctant defenders of government spending to outright hawkish assailants of social funds. But nothing focuses the mind like political calculation, and the upset in upstate New York has sent a message so clear that not even the highest priced Democratic consultant could miss it.
"Kathy Hochul's victory tonight is a tribute to Democrats' commitment to preserve and strengthen Medicare, create jobs and grow our economy. And it sends a clear message that will echo nationwide: Republicans will be held accountable for their vote to end Medicare," Pelosi said in a statement after the election.
The DNC jumped on this in their statement as well, with new chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz saying that the victory "demonstrates that Republicans and Independent voters, along with Democrats, will reject extreme policies like ending Medicare that even Newt Gingrich called radical … Kathy's Republican opponent, and those who spent a small fortune on her behalf in a solidly Republican district, found out the hard way that their extreme plans to abolish Medicare and slash Medicaid and investments in health care, education, innovation and job creation are wrongheaded and unpopular even in a district that should have been a cakewalk for the Republican candidate."
This is the perfect week for Democrats in the Senate to force Republicans to join their House colleagues in a moment-of-truth vote on the Ryan budget. We're already seeing several Republican Senators come out opposed to the plan, and that was before last night's results.
But despite all the exultations and all the good political fortune for Democrats over the past six months, one political leader didn't reference Medicare in his congratulations for Hochul. That was President Obama, who instead proclaimed that Hochul would assist in the fight to "create jobs, grow our economy, and reduce the deficit in order to outcompete other nations and win the future." Of course, that's Obama's message, not hers. Given the evidence of last night, it would be unthinkable for the White House to look the gift horse of the Ryan budget in the mouth and cut a deal on Medicare, or institute some other deficit reduction plan to get the Republicans off the hook. It would be even more unthinkable for Democrats to go along with it. But as we'll note in a later post, despite this strong admonition from the public, some strange winds are blowing in Washington.

5 Tips how to quit drinking and enjoy every moment of sobriety again!
If you want to look better, feel happier, boost your energy, lose weight and last but not least save lots of money this year, then alcohol-free is the way to go. Sobriety is a massive upgrade for all areas of your life. But in order to experience these amazing benefits, you've got to find a way of sticking with sobriety even when times are tough. It`s not going to be easy, but you`ll never look back with regret.
Let's take a look at some of the practical tips which will help you to quit drinking and stay motivated!
- Have a clear vision: Always try to have a clear vision of your future alcohol-free life. Imagine your future, healthy and sober self-radiating optimism and helping other people quit drinking. How empowering is that? Once you have that clear-vision, set smaller goals and milestones that will help you achieve it. This will motivate you and will also encourage your efforts regarding how to quit drinking. Once you stop drinking alcohol, it will improve both mental and physical health. Not only this but also it strengthens your relationship with your children, spouse, parents, friends, and relatives.
- Never feel lonely: Lots of women grab that evil bottle of wine when they are at home, alone. Always try to engage yourself with some activities, fill that schedule. You can spend your leisure time in many ways once you discover how much time and how many opportunities alcohol has robbed from you in the last years. Once you`ll be busy with all these activities, you will hardly find time, let alone force for drinking.
- Follow a healthy eating routine: Try to incorporate healthy sources of proteins and fats (legumes, nuts, seeds) into your daily regime and skip fast food. Alcohol can deplete vitamin B12 levels in your body which can have serious consequences such as anaemia and neurological symptoms, so it`s advisable to further supplement it. Once you feed your body with healthy nutrients, you won't get as much tempted to drink alcohol. Moreover, healthy eating habits will strengthen your energy and also help you to lead a healthier life with less doctor`s visits! Never skip your breakfast and follow 8 hours of sleep every day.
- Move that body: Do any kind of exercise you like which will uplift your concentration and also help you to stay motivated towards your goal. These exercises will also improve your mental and physical health. Try to incorporate at least three training sessions per week for at least 30 minutes each, your physical and mental health will be grateful!
- You don't have to work this out on your own: Some people do manage to go it alone, but it can be terribly lonely. And you risk wasting months and months – if not years – trying to figure things out on your own. If you were running a marathon, losing weight or quitting smoking, would you hesitate to ask for or even invest in some help, especially if you were finding things tough? Try to find a friend with similar motivations or a support group with like-minded women, it`s good to belong somewhere!
- +1 Secret advice: Successful sobriety is not just about abstinence. It's not about testing your willpower or seeing how long you can cope with missing out. It's about creating a sober life you love – one where you genuinely don't want to drink. That's true freedom. It might sound impossible now, but we are absolutely sure you can do this. All you need are the right tools, the right support system and the right guide.
