Item Code: 7900
Quantity: 60 Capsules
Description: For balancing intestinal microflora.
Saccharomyces bouldarii Administration changes gut microbiota..
Indications: S. boulardii has proven particularly beneficial for balancing the intestinal microbiology. It functions in the modulation of both innate immunity by activating the complement system and adaptive immunity by boosting the intestinal secretion of IgA. Additionally S. boulardii sureties "soluble factors" demonstrated to reduce inflammation win a reduction of the production of NF-KappaB and mitogen-activated protein kinase and to block the expression of inflammatory cytokines, particularly IL-8 which is secreted during E. coli infection. It also enhances the secretion of mucosal immune factors which protect against enteric pathogens and in dendritic immune cells it increases IL-10, which limits unspecific immune response by down regulating Th-1 response.
Orally, Saccharomyces boulardii is used for treating and preventing diarrhea, including infectious types such as rotaviral diarrhea in children, diarrhea caused by bacterial overgrowth in adults, traveler's diarrhea, and diarrhea associated with enteral tube feedings. It is also used orally to prevent and treat antibiotic associateddiarrhea. Saccharomyces boulardii is also used orally for general digestion problems, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel syndrome (IBD, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis), Lyme disease, relapsing Clostridium difficile colitis, and bacterial overgrowth in short bowel syndrome. It is also used orally for lactoseintolerance, urinary tract infections (UTIs), vaginal and Candida-related (yeast) infections, high cholesterol levels, hives, fever blisters, canker sores, and adolescent acne.
Ingredients: Each capsule of Saccharomyces boulardii contains a minimum of 4 billion organisms at time of manufacture.
Suggestion: One (1) capsule one (1) to three (3) times each day or as directed by your healthcare professional. This product is best taken on an empty stomach.
Safety: This product is Gluten and Dairy Free.

My recent visit to The Hunger Games movie got me thinking about heroic qualities. I'm not going to talk about the Hunger Games because I know a lot of people are going to see it over the next while, and I don't want to be responsible for any spoilers, but I will say that there are a lot of heroic qualities on show in The Hunger Games, and they make it a compelling piece of work.
So, back to writing romance. We call our characters 'the hero' and 'the heroine' rather than 'the bloke' and 'the gal', and sometimes don't have our characters be heros and heroines, but rather blokes and gals.
Why does it matter - and does it matter? I think it does.
A hero/heroine doesn't have to be Thor or Supergirl, but they should, right at the beginning of the story, have something about them which means that we, as readers, care about what happens to them. An admirable quality, which doesn't have to be a big one, but has to be there. Maybe they care about someone else, a sibling, a parent, an animal. Maybe they have something to overcome, their fear of loving another or self doubt.
Blake Snyder talked about this quality in 'Save the cat'. He said to have a scene which reveals an inner quality of the hero/heroine that makes the reader/audience identify with them. He called it the 'save the cat' moment because he used the analogy of a character that initially perhaps we can't see the humanity in, taking time out to save a cat, acting in a small, heroic way that changes the way that the reader sees that character, giving the character humanity.
The words hero and heroine give an image of an over the top character, who's brave and fearless. But real heros and heroines aren't. They're human. With a spark inside that challenges them to care or act in a way against their self interest in the pursuit of someone else's happiness or wellbeing. No matter how damaged they are by their past experiences, they try. And because they try, we root for them. Care about them, and want to turn the pages to see if they will win. If they will get their happy ever after. They have a lot to learn, a journey to take through which they'll learn and change, but the spark should be part of them from the first moment that they appear on the page.
That makes them true heros and heroines for me.

Bigging your hero or heroine

Great post Sally, and so true. Though I've read 'Save the Cat' I'll admit I haven't really given much thought to making sure my characters really live up to the terms 'hero'and 'heroine'. You'veinspired me to look at them differently.

That's thought provoking, Sally. I haven't read 'Save the Cat' but might now as that makes such sense.
I also need to revisit my ms, I fear that my hero has some stepping up to the mark to do.

I live in New England where more ice cream is consumed then in any other region in the country. Everyone I've ever known loves ice cream and has their personal favorite. Mine is butter pecan. I like my ice cream soft and creamy so I would remove it from the freezer and let it sit until it was the right consistency.
Ice cream is childhood, amusement parks, summer days of melting, dripping sugary goo, weekends with friends watching movies at home, nights with family after dinner, chasing Mr. Softee ice cream trucks (a NYC thing) playing the happy, ice cream jingle, after-sex treat (some of you who follow my blog may have noticed I mention sex quite a bit – is there anything better than good sex!!??), summer camps, family reunions, birthday parties, and on and on.
Ice cream is fun. Ice cream is also a delicious poison posing all kinds of problems once you get past its deliciousness.
Sugar, milk, 'natural' and artificial flavors, conditioners, preservatives, coloring, corn syrup – it's a recipe for rotting teeth, gas, bloating, indigestion, and obesity.
I'm going to share with you the simple steps for making an AWESOME alternative for all of you ice cream lovers.
(And I will be making a video and posting it here on Healing Voyage – in fact, I will be adding a page in the very near future with all kinds of videos for health and well-being — all good and useful stuff).
– fresh, ripe bananas (bananas are sweetest and most healthful when they are spotted with no trace of green at the ends)
– almond milk
– maple syrup or honey as sweetener, if desired
1) First, peel some ripe bananas and break up each banana into smaller pieces about 2 inches in length.
2) Place your banana pieces into a freezer bag or a storage container of your choosing (I reuse my freezer bags by washing them with hot, hot water).
3) Place your banana-filled bag in the freezer and allow 24-36 hours to freeze thoroughly (plan ahead if you will be serving family and friends).
4) Remove frozen banana pieces from the freezer and place them in a food processor (blenders can work too but it's tricky – food processors are best). NOTE: If you own a Champion Juicer you can run your frozen bananas through it without having to break up the bananas into small pieces.
5) Run your food processor on 'High' to break up your banana pieces thoroughly into a thick mash.
6) Add a milk alternative (I use almond milk — store-bought cow's milk tends to be full of hormones, chemical additives, and GMO-stuff [cows are fed GMO grains] and soy milk is fattening and likely to be GMO).
Add the milk 4 ounces at a time – this will allow you to control the mixing process until you get the desired consistency.
7) If you must add a sweetener use maple syrup, honey, or a sweetener like agave (READ UP ON AGAVE FIRST! THERE ARE AGAVE SYRUPS THAT ARE JUNK! And as for honey, research first, because there are reports of 'honey' from China that is not honey at all but flavored syrup).
8) Serve the soft-serve banana ice cream in a bowl and add nuts, seeds, fresh fruit, raw cacao chips or nibs, coconut flakes, freshly-made chocolate syrup or blended fruit.
9) You can freeze your banana treat if you prefer hard over soft (and be careful with your puns and double entendres!)
10) You can also try other fruits to make ice cream – strawberries, blueberries, peaches, etc. Experiment and have fun!
Bon appetit!

We read of David's victories in the wars over many enemies today. The account is so short that we believe the battles lasted only a day and were easy victories. Psalms 60 gives us a glimpse into David's prayers during that time.
Was it easy?
- You have rejected, scattered us. Take us back, v. 1.
- You made the earth tremble and split it open, v. 2.
- You have shown us hard times, causing us to stagger, v. 3.
- You have given a banner we may flee to from the bow, v. 4.
- Deliver, save us with Your right hand, answer us, v. 5.
- Have you not cast us off and not gone out with our enemies? v. 10.
- Give us help from trouble, v. 11.
Psalms 60:12, "Through God we will do valiantly, for He will tread down our enemies." Modern English Version
The battles are hard, but God has already won the war. Our job is to stay strong and courageous.
2 Samuel 10:12, "Be strong and let us fight with resolve for the sake of our people and the cities of our God. May the Lord do what seems good to Him." Modern English Version
1 Chronicles 19:13, "Take courage, and let us prove worthy of our people and the cities of our God. May the Lord do what seems right to Him." Modern English Version
Priscilla Shirer, daughter of Anthony Evans and star of "War Room," ends her prayers with this phrase: ". . . and if You have a better plan – do that!"

Hungary vs Russia: Preview & Prediction
Guaranteed in the 2018 World Cup for hosting the competition, Russia opens on Monday, June 5, their preparation for the Confederations Cup. The tournament, which brings together continental champions, will be a test event for the World Cup and takes place in the second half of the second month of the year. The Russians will face Hungary from 3:30 p.m. (GMT) at the Groupama Arena in Budapest.
Hungary's recent performance
The Hungarians still have a hope, albeit small, to get a place in the World Cup. With eight points (two wins, one draw and two losses), they are third in Group B behind Switzerland (15) and Portugal (12). In practice, your chances of getting one of the top two places are negligible.
Thus, coach Bernd Storck has in that friendly and even in the official matches the opportunity to try to form a base that can have more success in the qualifiers for the Eurocopa of 2020. On the 9th next, the team will face the fragile Andorra in the sixth round European qualifying round, the first of the second round.
He drew 25 players by mixing experienced athletes like Ferencvaros' Laszlo Kleinheiler with news such as Paulo Vinicius, a naturalized Brazilian who plays for Videoton, and Vasz's Szilverszter Hangya. The last two were summoned for the second time.
The coach is expected to give David Markvart an opportunity. Considered a revelation of Hungarian football, it has been called previously, but has not yet had the chance to act. Another rookie on the list was goalkeeper David Grof of Honved. He is not, however, an inexperienced athlete. He is 28 years old.
The complete squad list has:
Goalkeepers: Gulácsi Péter (RB Leipzig) Megyeri Balázs (Greuther Fürth) Gróf Dávid (Budapest Honvéd)
Defenders: Bese Barnabás (Le Havre) Kleisz Márk (Vasas) Lang Ádám (Dijon) Kocsis Gergő (DAC) Kádár Tamás (Dinamo Kijev) Vinicius Paulo Videoton FC Hangya Szilveszter (Vasas) Tóth Bence (Puskás Akadémia)
Socks: Nagy Ádám (Bologna) Elek Ákos (FK Almaty) Szoboszlai Dominik (RB Salzburg) Dzsudzsák Balázs (Al-Wahda) Kleinheisler László (Ferencváros) Márkvárt Dávid (Puskás Akadémia) Nagy Dominik (Legia Warszawa) Sallai Roland (Palermo) Gyurcsó Ádám (Pogon Szczesin) Kalmár Zsolt (Bröndby) Stieber Zoltán (Kaiserslautern)
Attackers: Szalai Ádám (Hoffenheim) Priskin Tamás (Slovan Bratislava) Eppel Márton (Budapest Honvéd)
The current form of Russia
Friendlies have failed to inspire confidence in Russian fans after the poor campaign at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. In the last ten matches, the team was defeated in five and won only two. They have not even been failures in front-line teams. In the period, the Russian squad was beaten by Cote d'Ivoire, Qatar, Costa Rica, Wales and Slovakia.
Although friendly matches should be analyzed with caution, the sequence of poor results gives a worrying indication of the team's participation in the Confederations Cup starting on the 17th. Members of Group A and home owners, the Russians will open the tournament Against fragile New Zealand. Its biggest challenges are the teams from Mexico and Portugal. The top two finishers advance to the semifinals.
The poor results affected coach Stanislav Cherchesov, who made a list of 30 names for Monday's match. As he can only relate 23 to the Confederations Cup, he will have to make cuts after the two friendlies scheduled before his debut in the competition. The next will be on June 9 against Chile.
They were called for the matches:
Goalkeepers: Igor Akinfeev (CSKA), Marinato Guilherme (Lokomotiv), Andrei Lunev (Zenit), Aleksandr Belenov (Ufa).
Defender: Viktor Vasin (CSKA), Ruslan Kambolov (Rubin), Fedor Kudryashov (Rostov), Georgiy Dzhikia, Spartak Ilya Kutepov, Roman Neustädter (Fenerbahce, Turkey), Andrey Semenov (Terek), Roman Shishkin .
Socks: Yury Zhirkov, Igor Smolnikov (both from Zenit), Yury Gazinsky (Krasnodar), Denis Glushakov, Dmitry Kombarov, Roman Zobnin, Aleksandr Samedov (both from Spartak), Mario Fernandez, Alan Dzagoev, Aleksandr Golovin Aleksandr Erokhin (Rostov), Aleksey Miranchuk, Dmitry Tarasov (both from Lokomotiv).
Attackers: Aleksandr Bukharov (Rostov), Artem Dziuba (Zenit), Maxim Kanunnikov (Rubin), Dmitry Poloz (Rostov), Fedor Smolov (Krasnodar).

The Chaotic Evil Dishwasher
When I was a kid we used to play Dungeons & Dragons, or at least we enjoyed playing and imagining in the fantasy of its world. This was in the olden days, before PC games and before the rules were re-written to be self-referentially coherent. These were the days of organically developed big books of 'rules' and procedures. One of the fun things about the D&D universe was that every sentient being had what was called an Alignment. It imagined the style of behavior of the character or other being, of how he, she, or it adventured through the world.
Alignment was a matrix of two axes, Lawful-Neutral-Chaotic and Good-Neutral-Evil. So there were nine alignments all together. Some sorts of characters were partially defined by an Alignment, e.g. Paladins had to be Lawful-Good, Druids had to be Neutral-Neutral, or 'True Neutral' as it was called, and Thieves were generally expected to be Chaotic-something. Supernatural beings were often defined by Alignment as well, e.g., devils were Lawful-Evil and demons were Chaotic-Evil.
When we were in high school, a friend and I used to sometimes sit in class and try to guess the Alignment of people we were studying. If it was a history class it would be the historical figures, if English, the characters in whatever book we were supposed to be reading.
I was thinking of this old friend as I did my chores this morning, and of our little game. Then, to distract myself during the repellent and annoying weekly task of cleaning out the refrigerator of long abandoned leftovers and salad dressing and condiment containers put back empty, I started to think about Alignment and religious life. What is the Alignment of the friars?
It's not an easy question, because it seems as if different aspects of our life display different Alignments. For example:
Divine worship. Here I judge the brethren, as a whole and for the most part individually, as Neutral-Good. They approach the liturgy with goodness in that they want it to be the worship of God and to thereby serve the pastoral care of its participants. They are neither Lawful nor Chaotic; rules are often a value, but not an absolute one. When rules seem to serve the greater purpose of goodness, they are followed, when they do not (in individual or corporate estimation) they may be abandoned. Some friars tend more toward the Lawful-Good in this area, holding up the value of 'say the black and do the red,' but they must always be careful not to allow themselves be driven to the pharisaic Lawful-Neutral, making an idol out of rubrics. Others tend more to the Chaotic-Good in this area, finding rules and structure at odds with goodness in a basic way. These must be careful, however, not to descend into the Chaotic-Neutral alignment of the narcissistic 'presider.'
Housekeeping. Here there is a great divide. Friars tend to the extremes in this area. Most are very neat and clean for the sake of others and good care of material goods, displaying a Lawful-Good stance. A few abandon goodness and become obsessed with neatness and cleanliness for their own sake, shading themselves to the Lawful-Neutral. A noteworthy minority, however, are Chaotic in this regard. There is the Chaotic-Good that claims not to even notice mess or dirt, and the Chaotic-Neutral that simply considers cleanliness and neatness not to be values. There is one general rule here, however. Almost all of the brethren--with a few famous exceptions--are entirely Chaotic-Evil when it comes to putting their dishes in the dishwasher. They tend to be placed not only with no regard for order, but in such a way that minimizes the capacity of the dishwasher, thus making poor use of water and energy.

I never played D&D, not my thing, but in a way, I can relate to what you're doing in a far less complicated manner.
A couple years ago our boss made us go to a training seminar, and there we learned that everyone is either a "What", a "Why" or a "How" or a combination of them.
The "What" people are those who just want to know WHAT they need to do so they can get it done, but don't get caught up in the details. (Doesn't mean sloppiness, just that they aren't OCD! lol)
The "How" people are those who, if they are called to a meeting want the full agenda so they can gather and prepare their spreadsheets, etc - very very detail oriented.
The "Why" people are those who read typical business language as abrupt, maybe rude, and perhaps insulting. The "whys" tend to be more guided by emotion.
I would be, for example, a What-Why, but I have one co-worker who is almost purely a Why.
Gotta say...in many interactions this crosses my mind and it's actually been very useful in dealing with people, delivering talks, etc., so I can address the needs of each type of person, or at least recognize where they are coming from in any given interaction.
Great post, and never mind the nerdiness.... (fellow nerd here, if in a different way...)
- K T Cat said...
First, I'm convinced that had we gone to the same school, we would have been good friends. I played a lot of D&D in the same era. Second, have you considered the possibility that it's not your brethren misloading the dishwasher, but the work of imps after the door is closed?
- Brother Charles said...
Yes...perhaps. I will set a trap for them.

We wanted to make sure you don't miss the television debut of "The Specials," on Sunday, September 7th from 1:30 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. CST on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN).

The housemates live life to the max – they enjoy everything from surfing and karaoke as well as competing in Special Olympics.
The Webby Award-winning series was originally produced as short form,10-minute webisodes in England.

I see this when I look up a book in the catalogue.
This will appear when a book that belongs in one library is returned to a different library.
It can take a while for the book be transported by staff to the library which officially owns the book. During this time period, the book is listed as 'in transit'. It is not possible to place a hold on the book during this time.
We ask all our users to return books to where they were taken out.
Exception: books from UTSC and UTM can be returned to Robarts, Gerstein, or other St. George campus locations, and vice versa.

Mixtape: Tell me the truth, is it love or just Paris?
Roisin Murphy may not have the elevated place she deserves in pop music, but she's clearly high up the guest list in the fashion world, seated next to self-promoter Kanye West on the front row of the New York shows. This photo's from The Hopeless Optimist, who has elaborate coverage of Roisin's fashionista jaunts worldwide. I hope this will inspire her to create new music soon.
Chers amis, Phoenix, a band I completely forgot existed, is back. Their website opens with a free download of new single 1901. The song seems like standard indiepop until the chorus where the real hook comes in-n-n-n. If you don't know their 2003 track Too Young (watch it now), used to great effect in the film Lost In Translation, get it on itunes. I should add that they're French and we need more French popstars, at least beyond Mrs. Sarkozy. Their new CD, the brilliantly Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, is out May 25.
The Virgins want to be as effortlessly cool as Phoenix. They're in fashion spreads in New York (see it) and Rolling Stone. I recommend the track Private Affair.
Neko Case's new album The Middle Cyclone is streaming now on NPR! It's out March 3.
U2. What does one say about hoary ol' U2? I think their new album will require some time. The question is, do I want to give Boner and The Boys that time? I am still baffled by the choice of that boots song as the single, when Stand Up Comedy or I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight completes the task with far more effervescence. I just did a killer review of it for Instinct, which I'll share when I can.
Morrissey fans: I was at first dismissive of the new b-sides, but I'm slowly changing my mind. I recommend both Because Of My Poor Education and Shame Is The Name heartily. I doubt anyone noticed the little slogan on the banner above - that's taken from Shame. I plan to review the actual album soon. The song to beat is the wailing, intense It's Not Your Birthday Anymore. The Red Radio has a contest up for a free vinyl copy of the album (Americanos only).
Seriously, OMD and Spandau Ballet are recording again. The latter are sort of like Take That with erectile dysfunction.
That defamer Chartrigger is now in love with Lily Allen after years of refusal (!). I hope the pic below of Lily and a large pussy pops his cork.
Stuart Price has remixed Wrong by Depeche Mode. This one as Thin White Duke. Should be good, though his recent Starsailor mix added nothing much to Tell Me It's Not Over.
Ladyhawke has new mixes out for her Paris Is Burning track I love the Funkagenda mix and the radio edit for the Simmons and Christopher Mix. They're all over the place.
Does anyone have an MP3 of Will Young's iTunes UK bonus track This Is Who I Am (hear it)? I didn't know it existed until today. It's a massive attack...

U2 are not worth the time to try and get into an album anymore. I've been playing these three great old(er) songs of theirs lately:
Electrical Storm
The Hands That Built America
The Ground Beneath Her Feet
They don't write 'em like that anymore.
The Virgins are far better than Phoenix have ever been. "Teen Lovers" is a great track.

WOT!? Is that a joke Torr? Your U2 comment is akin to praising Ganglord, Public Image and Life Is A Pigsty and saying the new stuff sucks in comparison!
You are wrong about Phoenix too! Wrong-o. You are on crack tonight.
XOXO anyway

I like Because Of My Poor Education quite a bit, but Shame Is The Name should've been an album track. It's excellent.
I love OMD so I'm glad they are coming back.
I never seem to be impressed with Stuart Price remixes, although he's a good producer. The Viva La Vida one he did was dull.

I like Public Image Limited, if that's who you're referring to.
I like How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb

I think this new Lily album has made a fan out of many non-fans. Arjan felt the same about the album too. I once read a review which said that "Lily Allen is like Marmite. You will either love it or hate it."
I couldn't agree more since I used to hate Marmite but after giving it time to absorb, I now find that a slice of toast with melted Emmenthal over a think layer of Marmite is absolutely the most exquisite thing ever!

I'm not joking at all. Those three I named are great U2 songs from the not too distant past.
And yes, "Ganglord" is way better than anything from the new Moz album.

I agree with Torr in that "Electrical Storm" was U2's last good song.
Thanks for posting the picture of Lily. Maul her, pussies....MAUL HER!!!!
Still loving the album. But now that it's out, we don't need her around anymore.

That's like a variation on "I want to bang you but I don't want to hear your voice" - you want to hear Lily sing, but that's it. Mean bitch you are. She is like a kid sister!
Electrical Storm is not THE shit, but it isn't shit. I don't care for than Hands Across American song though...

U2's songs since Electrical Storm may not be as good in some eyes, but you cannot deny that they sold a crapload of records with Atom Bomb--Vertigo was huge.
Personally, I preferred the Achtung-Zooropa-Pop era that many did not like (at least those with money who buy albums), so I am a bit excited to see if they can be less like U2 again.

OMD are performing a concert this summer with the Liverpool orchestra, I think one of their old albums; it seems kind of like the PSB Battleship Potemkin thing. Sounds cool. They totally need a critical reassessment and praise; a very underrated band.
U2; yes, Electrical Storm was one of their last great singles; then after that, they picked up their guitars again and it was all over. Ugh, maybe it's a macho thing? Too many synths and they think their manhood's in danger.
Moz=Shame is the Name is good, a hell of a lot better than 95% of that album. Utterly disappointed in the Morrissey record. I don't understand how 90% of critics are praising this record so highly. I don't get it. It's hands down the worst album he's ever done.
Lily Allen=I dont get it. Explain her to me.

If you do manage to get your hands on that Will Young track, would you be a dear and send it my way? I would be EVER so grateful :)

I loved the Stuart Price (aka Jacques Lu Cont) remix of Depeche's "A Pain That I'm Used To," so I'm looking forward to him taking on "Wrong."
Lily Allen's CD is one of my favorite album of this year so far. "Everyone's At It" is the modern-day version of "Mother's Little Helper" or "White Rabbit."
And finally, you are a winner of the Premios Darbo Blog Award, this blog is always an interesting rad when it comes to music!

Many beginner writers face the question, what should I write about? It's understandable when staring at a blank screen to suddenly feel anxious about putting those first words down. It's not the same as writer's block which can happen to seasoned writers when they are burnt out.
Wondering what to write about stems from a fear of getting it wrong. Should I put time and effort into this particular topic or would a different one be better? All the topics I have in mind seem flat and uninteresting. How can I write about this topic when there are so many other pieces of work out there on the same subject? And so it goes on.
No Writing is Wasted
The first thing to remember is that no writing is wasted. The more you write, the better you become. So, it's more important to start than spend hours trying to get the topic right.
If your writing seems flat and uninteresting then you probably don't feel passionate enough about the topic. Perhaps you need a different angle? Writing on subjects you're passionate about is much easier.
Your Writing is Unique
There will always be articles and posts on similar subjects. The thing to bear in mind is that your take on the topic is yours alone. Your writing is unique and you will word it in a different way to everyone else.
Think back to creative writing classes at school. The teacher set homework such as write a story about a day out at the seaside. There might be twenty children in the classroom but they would all produce different stories. Unless of course they cheated and copied their friend's homework!
To get the words flowing, see if any of these suggestions help:
Sometimes called pre-writing or warming up. Some writers do this before every writing session. Set your timer for ten minutes. At the start begin writing and don't stop until the ten minutes are up.
Don't worry about mistakes, spellings or grammar, just write anything that comes into your head. If nothing comes into your head, write that down, 'I cannot think of anything to write,' just don't stop. The idea is to let thoughts fall onto the page freely, without judgement. It can be extremely liberating.
Have a rant
Have a rant about something that concerns you. This could be anything from a day-to-day inconvenience such as parking to a global issue like food wastage. The point is, if you feel passionate about it, you should be able to write about it.
Many newspapers and magazines love opinion pieces like this, or it could be turned into a reader letter.
Hand write for a change
Writing on paper is a very creative thing to do and will give you the feeling of satisfaction at producing something tangible. It also gives your eyes a rest from the screen.
Get out and about
Go out for the day and then write about it. Was it a great day or did it end in disaster? Was it somewhere you've always wanted to go or were you dragged along to make up the numbers?
Was it more than you hoped for a great big disappointment? Write it all down.
Confessions are good for the soul
What's the most embarrassing thing you've ever done? Or a particularly difficult time in your life. Write about it if you can bare to. You don't have to show it to anyone but this type of personal writing can be very therapeutic.
If it is something you don't mind other people seeing, there is a massive market for this kind of real life confession story.
Please do comment and let me know if you've tried any of the above, and how you got on?

At some point the tears are supposed to stop, right? I have a feeling it shouldn't take this long to adjust to the new normal. Yet, every time I think I'm making progress, here come the tears. From seemingly out of the blue.
At first they were tears for myself. Why did I have to be me, the person who did whatever she did to make him not want to be a part of her life anymore? My tears were my hatred for myself.
Then they were for our past. Why must I miss out on that happiness we once shared? I was devastated not to have that magic bullet that was our friendship; the thing I just knew I would always have that would make the world seem bright again in the darkest of times. My tears were grievance for the loss of that.
But now, I've come to terms with the fact that that chapter is closed. I actually like who I am becoming and accept myself. Still, the tears. Only, this time they are all for him. As they fall, I think of his smile, his laugh, his stride, the songs he loved to sing, his hilarious attempts at foreign accents, the way he used to rub his facial hair on my shoulder…
Perhaps this is a good thing. This could be a progression. My negative feelings were at one time focused inward, then involved sadness over a shared internal and external experience, and now my tears are for reasons that have little to do with me. Could it be I cry simply because I still have all of these memories and no more use for them? Definite possibility.
It's just good to talk it over with myself, you know? My reasoning being that if I follow some trail of logic, I might be able to reason with my emotion. Maybe I can get this all to go away. I'm not naïve. I know how improbable that is.
But I hold out hope.

Magic Words
On Friday evening I went to see The Magic Showcase, a group of four magicians who perform in sequence over the course of an evening. Actually, I've just looked up the collective term for a group of magicians and it turns out it's an Illusion, appropriately enough.
The show was organised by one of the illusionists performing, Tom Wright, and also included Dave Burns, Arron Jones, and John Morton. The event was held to raise money for Hulland Community Pre-School. If the packed house and crowded bar was anything to go by, they should have achieved their aim.
It's a long time since I've watched any sleight of hand, and then it was by fellow mystery author James Swain, who is noted to be one of the best card-handlers out there.
This show was great fun, and the four performers were not above taking the rip out of the audience in the name of an easy laugh. I was surprised to be picked out, as for some reason in the past I've always managed to put out a 'don't pick on me' vibe. I must be mellowing in my old age. Still, when Arron Jones asked me what I did for a living and I answered, "I'm a crime writer," he paused a moment and then said, "I can't think of anything funny to say about that…"
Going to watch The Magic Showcase was as much for research purposes as for anything else. An idea has been germinating in the back of my mind for a while with legerdemain, deception, and misdirection as main parts of the story. I wanted to see it for myself, live and up close. Some bits I could spot, but others remained thoroughly intriguing bits of mystery.
One piece from the show highlighted a feeling I had for this story—whatever it eventually turns into. John Morton put two envelopes, A and B, onto stands on the stage. He picked out an audience member and told them that one envelope contained a £50 note, and the other a lottery ticket. The guy chose A. Morton then put an X sticker on the A envelope and a smiley emoticon sticker on the B envelope, all the while asking if the man was sure, and didn't want to change his mind. Periodically during his set, he would ask again if the man was certain of his decision, hinting that he'd got the wrong one. When it came to making his final choice, the man changed his mind and opted for envelope B. Sure enough, that contained the lottery ticket and the A envelope contained the cash. I'm sure, had the man gone for that one at the beginning, Morton's patter would have been subtly different. And I'm sure it would still have ended up with the magician keeping hold of his money. Psychological mind games are a fascinating part of the act.
To a certain extent, when we write, crime and mystery authors try to accomplish the same sleight of hand with words—or should that be legerdemot? We throw a clue into the mix but try to distract the reader from what it is with a flourish of description or action at the same time. The more accomplished the wordsmith, the less likely the move is to be noticed. It all has to be smooth and seamless and entertaining.
Just like magic.
This week's Word of the Week is prestidigitation, which means conjuring tricks performed as entertainment. The word comes from the French preste (from the Italian presto) meaning nimble or quick, and the Latin for finger, digitus.

Hello, this is Harry Fleming.
With the Pumpkin Run being only one week away, I hope that all who have attended prior shows here at the Junkyard will consider attending this years show at Amandas Field in the Petersburg section of Upper Township.
I have put my full support behind this event and with the help of all of you, the spectators, vendors, exhibitors, and staff, this years show could be one of the great ones!
I know the show may not be the same, as many of the attractions here at the junkyard are very unique and cannot leave the grounds.
But a majority of our exhibitors and events that are held here, will be at Amanda's Field.
They will be there, willing to give the event a chance. And I hope you will be too.
I would like to thank Upper Township, Mayor Richard Palumbo and Council for their generosity and willingness to hold this event and for carrying on the Pumpkin Run name. Also the leadership of Councilman Hobie Young in heading up this endeavor.
But make no mistake, our efforts will always be to bring the Pumpkin Run back home to the Junkyard!
In the meantime, hopefully you will all attend this years event and make it a big success!
Thank You and Enjoy the Show!

GREENFIELD TOWNSHIP, Pa. -- So many things in our lives are automated these days. Now, automation could save your life.
Greenfield Township Volunteer EMT's recently purchased a mechanical CPR device. The first in Lackawanna County.
"Studies have shown that high-efficiency, non-interrupted CPR is the best for the patient and this mechanical device is going to do this 100% of the time," said ambulance Captain Kyle Durko.
The device goes around the patient's body and can provide compression for much longer than a human. The EMT's told Newswatch 16 that in their rural community, they might have to do compression for 45 minutes before getting to a hospital.
"CPR is very tiring, this device is going to take that rescuer fatigue out of it. It`s going to make it a lot easier for our people. It`s also going to make it a better outcome for the patient, which is a win-win," Durko added.
Plus, it will mean they are safer during the ambulance ride.
"When they`re in the back of the ambulance, the attendants can stay seated instead of standing over the patient to attempt to do CPR, added Lt. Richard Whitelavich.
There's another, maybe surprising, reason why the mechanical CPR device is helpful to Greenfield Township EMT's. There are fewer and fewer EMT's to cover shifts.
"The requirement for the state is a minimum of two trained responders and some days it`s a struggle to even meet that requirement to staff the ambulance, our staffing overall is down very low," Whitelavich said.
The CPR device cost the Greenfield Township Volunteer Fire Company about $16,000. But, its effect could be priceless.

Project: Amazing places to visit!
to learn more about the world , to enhance cultural understanding, to motivate students to use the Internet as a source of information, to encourage students to work smoothly in groups, to build up students' confidence by demonstrating their work on the school walls.
Realization of Project:
The idea for this project came from our textbook: Think Teen, 2nd grade of Junior High School (advanced), page 49. After reading about the amazing places in this unit, students were asked to find information about other amazing places they would like to visit. Then, they had to concentrate on five points of interest and prepare a poster adding relevant visual material to their work ( photographs, drawings etc).
All posters were hung on the school walls and a knowledge quiz was prepared. Students were invited to answer the knowledge quiz questions during the school breaks by searching for information in the posters!

Overcome the Computer Repair Shop - Is Antivirus the Method to Get?Par johnely4567 dans Accueil le 8 Janvier 2019 à 06:33
Unfortunately, a reasonable total of individuals have their laptops break while on vacation. As cautious as you act as, you're out of your element and points happen. Maybe it gets dropped at the lodge, or maybe you get it infected with viruses or spyware while searching on the internet for information regarding your location. Today, I'm not stating in any way, that Googling for details about some holiday hotspot immediately leads to finding infected. But internet search engine effects may cause one to harmful links.
Everybody's internet browsing behaviors are very different, their net street smarts range and therefore do the protection services and products they use. I know of people on vacation who have got many films and pictures and saved them to their laptop to allow them to take more another day. Then... BOOM! surprise and untimely problem happens with their laptop.
Still another note about on website company is that there are a number of mobile just technicians (free-lancers) and stores that could dispatch their very own mobile technicians. In either case, their cost and level of Computer repair shop Croydon can differ greatly. I have to acknowledge, that when a person is concerned about whether the specialist are designed for the job.
I don't like finding interviewed around the device for fifteen minutes and then a possible customer requires if they could call you back. That usually means to people that you've no intention of contacting back and you just did not wish to damage our feelings. Whatever the case, there was some objection, generally the purchase price, trust, questions about to be able to handle the task, arrangement, or whatever.

(Social Justice South Africa; c.f. Catholic Culture 16/10/08)
Catholic Culture is reporting that a British court has let a man convicted of the murder of his sick Alzheimer's suffering wife off, based on the judge's view of his motives. The man had previously refused to allow professionals to care for her, doing so himself- and while he smothered her to death- other patients in the hospital heard her objections. The man was then convicted, but because the Judge doing sentencing believed the man had his wife's best interests in mind when murdering her- the man has not been given any jail time.
In Britain- members of the general public came out in support of the man who blew kisses at his supporters- and was upbeat prior the trial. The British "Pro-Choice" movement have long prior this legalized abortion, and are constantly pushing for more freedom in this field.
Like South Africa- the British have a government which the church would consider to promote a culture of death- such decisions by judges and support of the general public are considered by many to be examples of this culture's effect on public decisions.
Social Justice Family and Life News Service of the ~SACNS
Justice- and truth.
We must realize the importance of our fellows- and that human rights mean that it is not charity we give, by helping our fellow men- but rather justice.
We will keep you informed on some of the many issues pertaining Social Justice- in some attempt to use the truth to permiate the fog of suffering and politics!
We are Catholic in our perspective. We believe in human dignity!

Dortmunder opened the door and a distant burglar alarm went CLANGangangangangangang..."Hell," Dortmunder said, and shut the door again, but the angangangangangang went on and on. "Hell and damnation," Dortmunder said, while from some distance away a police patrol car's siren went whoop-whoop wiggle-wiggle-wiggle whoooooooooopp, the sound rising from the grid of New York City's streets up five stories through the two A.M. air to this quiet blacktopped floor. The burglar alarm kept nagging: angangangangangang. WHOOP-WHOOP; the patrol car wasn't so very far away after all.

Awesome... Only a few more inches and I'll be making the trip north.
Date(s) Skied: October 1st, 2009
Resort or Ski Area: Stowe, VT
Conditions: Snowing and upper 30s F at the Gondola base (~1,600'). Elevation vs. snow depth: 1,800: snow line, 2,000: ½ - 1, 2,700: ~2, 3,000: 2-3, 3,700: 3+
Trip Report: For quite a while, the local weather gurus had been talking about the potential for local snow at the end of September/beginning of October. On Wednesday, September 30th, reports started coming in of white in the mountains, and from UVM I could see the tendrils of snowfall crashing out along the Green Mountain spine. It was looking like Thursday morning would feature some real accumulations of snow, but on Wednesday evening the snowfall seemed to come to a halt. I started to reconsider my thoughts of taking a Thursday morning trip up to Mt. Mansfield, but sometime after dark I checked the local radar and it looked like snowfall was blooming again. I awoke Thursday morning to see that there were still echoes on the radar, the temperature at the house was ~41 F, and our back deck was wet. I suspected there had been some additional snow on Mansfield, so I hopped in the car and decided that Id at least go for a hike before work.
While I couldnt see much white at all on my drive to the mountain, as I finally got close to Mt. Mansfield, I could see that there was a good covering of snow from about the middle elevations of Spruce Peak on up. I parked in the upper lot of the gondola (~1,600) and there were a half dozen cars that looked like they could belong to other early morning folks checking out the snow. Snow was falling all around me, and while it wasnt sticking at the base, I could see white on the ground not far above. At some point after 7:30 A.M., I strapped my skis on my pack and headed up Nosedive, hitting the snow line right around 1,800. The depth of the snow didnt increase too quickly, only up to maybe ½ to 1 inch in depth by the 2,000 mark. I thought that the snow would probably be great for the junkboarders, but I wasnt quite sure about those who were on regular skis. Not long after I had that thought though, I met three skiers coming down Nosedive, right around the intersection with National. They clearly seemed to be making due on regular skis and seemed to be enjoying it. During my ascent it snowed most of the time, and occasionally the snow came down with moderate to heavy intensity. Being starved for a bit of winter weather, I loved it.
Even by the top of Nosedive (~3,600) the snow was only up to about 3 inches in depth, but I hiked on a bit farther to check out the Mt. Mansfield stake. There was some vegetation in front of the stake (~3,700) that hadnt let the snow settle all the way to the ground, but the depth of the snow was clearly less than 6 inches. At least one vehicle had driven on the Toll Road, but I still popped on my old Telemark skis and did a little gliding in the untouched snow outside the tire tracks. That was quite pleasant, although due to the minimal snowfall, there was the occasional crunch of a piece of gravel. Not wanting to deal with the hassle of negotiating the steep terrain of Nosedive with somewhat minimal snow, I continued on the Toll Road and into the Ridge View area before deciding to take off my skis. I had even made a few Tele turns on the snowy grass, but by around the 3,000 elevation, a combination of wanting to head back in the direction of the Gondola via steeper terrain, and not wanting to put any real damage into my skis saw me strapping them back on my pack. Im not totally ready to commit the Hellgates to official rock ski status just yet.
Hiking up had been really enjoyable (I think it was the first time Id hiked such a long distance in Tele boots without switching to skinning) but the vistas on the descent were spectacular. With the dramatic scenes of white surrounding me, and the brilliant colors in the valley, I stopped frequently to pull out the camera. My descent was somewhat meandering, taking me down through the Hayride and Lookout areas, before making it down to Crossover and down to the gondola lot. The snow level on Mansfield looked like it had crept up a few hundred feet since my ascent, so it was certainly warming up. Insofar as I can recall, I think Thursdays outing was the first time that things came together to allow me to ski on my birthday, so that made it even more of a treat that usual.
Some pictures and data plots from the day are attached below.

text: Abraham Lincoln Stated: "If you want to test a man's character, give him power". This current administration has made that clear. We have cabinet comprised of a group of wealthy people who due to their money make, coerce or intimidate people to get their way. Their objective appears to be imposing uninformed opinions on the American people while repealing and replacing existing laws and protections. Did you know that the GOP (Dupublicans) have been trying to play fast and loose with social security by touting it as an entitlement? Social security and Medicaid are not entitlements but savings that keep people make all of their working life. This maladministration Has taken credit for what was accomplished by previous administrations while taking other ill-advised actions that will go against the well being of the often Cited American people in the future. The same American people who voted them in based on their Lies and soaring unrealistic rhetoric. All the while our so-called legislators are busily pushing us into a spiral of worse health care and less personal wealth due to an abominable Tax plan. The political system we use has been touted as one of the best however due to the voters taking our eyes off of our elected officials they have committed acts in our names and lied to us about what they have done. There are few if any laudable character traits in our Congress. The few possible Statesmen or Women are overwhelmed by the self serving party line seat fillers who have shown their character over the past 10 years. We have ignored or misunderstood their activities until it hits us at home (then it is too late). It is OUR DUTY as voters to investigate these folks as their campaign speeches are no more than "orchestrated information" to gain election using often absent or skewed facts. These tit for tat campaigns are rarely completely honest and we must see them as just that. I see the campaign speeches as either lies with a smattering of truth or truth with a smattering of lies, the key is be informed so you know the difference.
