On September 5th, 2008 then 18 year old LaQuan (Isaiah) Phillips awoke like any other high school football player, excited and ready to play some football. Little did he know that day would forever change his life. This story has been covered by local news several times but the story you'll find below is from LaQuan himself and in his own words with some help of the LVSF Staff.
We are proud to have LaQuan on board with us one of our newest Youth Sports Safety Advocates! He will be joining us in our community outreach to help spread the awareness of injuries such as his and how they can be prevented.
Check out the video at the end of the article...
LaQuan's Story
Little did I know that on September 5th, 2008, while starting for the Green Valley High School Football Team that my life was about to change forever. It was that epic senior year and I was a starter on the varsity football team and it looked like the whole world was in front of me. On game day I woke up with that it's time to play ball feeling.
During the Second Quarter on the 3rd defensive series, I was blindsided from behind by the receiver I was covering from the opposing team (Centennial HS) and flew head first into my teammates leg and laid face down on the football field paralyzed from the neck down.
It wasn't until a few hours later while at Sunrise Hospital that I would learn that my life as I had known it had come to a complete halt. After being ran through about 2-3 hours' worth of tests, the doctors would deliver those devastating words that would turn my life upside down...
According to the doctors I had slipped my C3 disc in my spine and was paralyzed from the neck down. Hearing the words "paralyzed" was a wakeup call and my entire reality had changed in the matter of a few minutes and I didn't know what to expect next.
I would spend the next two weeks in Sunrise Hospital, friends and family filled my room daily for comfort and support. I still don't know how I maintained such an optimistic view. I guess the feeling of being alive beat the feeling of being paralyzed.
After a Couple of weeks of debating on which rehab to go to, my aunt and I settled on Shriner's Hospital for children in Sacramento, CA. The reason being, I had family in Sacramento plus a new born nephew that I was excited to meet. I didn't expect when I arrived at Shriner's that it would be as amazing as it was. I personally describe it as the Disneyland for disabled children because it's the happiest place on earth. I've never felt so safe it was a great feeling considering my circumstances. I felt out casted but Shriner's provided comfort and acceptance. Plus it helped that there were other SCI (spinal cord injury) patients there with me also around my age.
Therapy was like boot camp 5 times a week, twice a day OT (occupational therapy) and PT (physical therapy) plus school. Some weeks I was booked from 7-4 with weekends off. We had activities on certain days like on Tuesdays we had cooking class where I'd get the opportunity to cook my own dinner (We mostly cooked pizza). On weekends if we were lucky we would go on outings like a LA Kings Hockey Game or a trip to the movies or the mall.
I came home in October to visit for the Henderson Bowl (Green Valley vs Basic) and as I watched us lose the Henderson Bowl I cried because it hurt not to be able to play in the most important game of my senior year on top of that we lost. It only sent me back to Shriner's with more motivation to get better Quicker.
I returned home that November around Thanksgiving time to stay for good. I enrolled into Health South, a local rehab, where I went three times a week for 2 hours a day for OT and PT, all after school. I enrolled back into school that December in a wheelchair, when I started the year just a few months earlier I was able to walk in. I instantly felt out of place and being back was hard because I felt like for the most part I had lost my social life.
I found refuge in the choir room as choir was the only place that made me remember what being me felt like. I may have lost the ability to play football or run track but I had not lost the ability to hold a note. At a time when I was really feeling out of place and alone the choir room was there for me. Even if I sat in there by myself I was perfectly at peace... I felt free, away from the truth of the fact that I wasn't completely me.
In choir I was the me I had always been before the accident and I loved that feeling. It was a choir trip to Disney World in Orlando when I started to completely recover from my injury. Mr. Jeff Horn, Green Valley's Principal, got me an electric scooter which gave me my independence and freedom back. I can't explain how great it felt to not have to be pushed around in a wheelchair!
After returning from Orlando it just seemed like the end of year came at full speed. At this point I was focused on one thing and that was the promise I made to myself back in October. That promise was that I Would walk across the stage for graduation. Sure enough, graduation day came and I kept my promise and walked across that stage to receive my diploma.
I've since attended Nevada State College with plans to major in sports management and am currently gaining some business experience before completing my education. Every day takes effort and it is a readjustment to life after such a catastrophic injury. I walk with a slight limp, have challenges with some fine motor skills, and admit to having an occasional fall, but I'm here. I have a new outlook on life, a renewed sense of purpose and physical and mental strength. I'm committed to a daily routine of exercise to increase my range of motion and balance and have learned how strong one can become even if you feel you're at your weakest.
When you've received a diagnosis of temporary paralysis it is devastating. You have to believe that you will take that next step, that you will walk again and that you'll be able to share your story in hindsight, as I am doing today. And that your story will mean something to those who listen. I talk about sports safety to young athletes and encourage them to aim high on the field; while also playing smart.

Tornado Touches Down in Seward and Meade County
KSCB News - November 17, 2015 5:38 am
A tornado touched down Monday night in Seward and Meade County. A tornado was reported two miles southeast of Kismet at 6:30. Damage was reported to at least one residence, a hog farm, and power lines were reported from the tornado which pass through the area. Sirens sounded in Liberal as a tornado formed just north and east of the city. A large tornado first spotted in Seward County made its way into Meade County, causing the power outages north and east of Liberal and the damage to homes in Kismet. A family was trapped in the basement of the destroyed home and had to be rescued. The hog barn was completly destroyed and a huge generator was toppled over. The tornado measured about one quarter of a mile wide. The tornado made its way four miles east of Montezuma where damage to a barn was reported at 6:45.

- Trustee
Trustee and alumnus Randy Lehman '82 and his wife, Deb, support Bethel College because they want to see its significance multiplied for generations to come.
Lehman knows firsthand what a difference a Bethel education can make. Though he came to study accounting and play basketball, an injury his freshman year left him unable to continue in the Bethel basketball program. His coach, Homer Drew, encouraged him to get involved elsewhere on campus. Lehman did.
He joined student government, participated as a member of a Bethel College men's traveling quartet and Rotoract (part of the business department). He eventually landed an internship in wealth management with Northwestern Mutual, which would impact his career path and life.
Lehman is a business owner and wealth management advisor associated with Northwestern Mutual, a position he's held in Fort Wayne, Ind., for 34 years. In that time, he's focused on helping others, striving toward significance over success.
"The world's view of success is fleeting and temporary. I learned the importance of significance … [focusing on] others … how to help others. It's more of an outward expression. That's what we do in my business," he says. "I'm very thankful for the difference we've made in peoples' lives."

Do dark patches on your face cause the feeling of distress when you are among your peers? You can fade these dark spots to revitalize a vibrant face.
Your skin color is influenced by the quantity of melanin. They are created by the melanocytes. If the melanin creation happen to be excessive, it can result in black spots. The common causes for facial pigmentation are hormonal imbalance and sun exposure.
Although acid peels and laser therapies are around but you've other safer solutions. Try these home remedies to reduce the appearance of brown patches on your face.
The therapeutic capabilities of aloe vera for skin issues has been in use for ages. It can benefit you if your skin is burned due to the sun exposure. Are you aware that it can also reduce the appearance of dark patches on the skin? If your garden has some aloe vera plants, cut in the middle of a leaf and apply the gel on the dark patches. Let it sit for roughly one hour. Later you can wash it with water. On a daily basis, do it twice. Don't stop until you have reached 30 days.
Lemon juice is a common thing in your fridge. It doesn't take long to use this simple remedy to remove dark spots on face naturally. Lemon is effective in minimizing pigmentation spots owing to its high contents of vitamin C. Use a cotton ball that is damp with lemon juice and apply it directly on the spotted parts. Let it to dry and then rinse it with water. If you desire to notice genuine results, 14 days is required from your end. If your skin has a bad reaction after coming in contact with lemon juice, add water to lessen its strength.
One good natural lightening agent is turmeric. Prepare a thick paste by mixing turmeric with lemon juice and milk. Apply it on your face and rub it carefully. After 15 minutes from the time it has dried up, you can wash it with lukewarm water.
Papaya is a powerful treatment for brown spots due to its loads of papain. Choose a ripe papaya from your preferred grocer. Cut it in slices and put them into a large dish for mashing. Use your fingers and spread it over the pigmented skin. Hold off for a minimum of 20 minutes before cleaning it up. In the event that you wish for fast results, add some lime juice.
Potatoes can lighten the brown patches on your face. Slice them but not too thin. It is a simple task. All you need to do is to apply the spots with one slice every time.
Do not hope for instant results with natural treatments. It is advisable to use it each day. Have some patience as everything needs some time to mend. My preference is to use. You should not be absentminded not to use broad-spectrum sunblock every day. It has the potential to prevent melanoma and lessen the UV harmful impacts on your skin that encourage the appearance of brown patches.

An Italian emigrated to Holland with traditional experience as a jeweler whose creations are not in gold and silver but in 3D printed nylon. We spoke with Dario Scapitta about the role of materials, inspiration, the desire to create and the results he produces at the crossroads between technology and design.
Where are you from?
I was born and raised in Valenza (AL), Italy, and moved to Enschede, Holland, in 2010. Valenza is one of the jewelry capitals of Italy (along with Vicenza and Arezzo), and everyone in my family always worked in this sector, so it was my destiny to do so as well. I learned the bases of design here, before moving on to a degree course in set and costume design at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera a Milano. Experience in this fashion-obsessed city strongly influenced what I do and desire to do now.
I then did a Masters from the Accademia d'Arte e Mestieri del Teatro at Milan's Teatro Scala, and that is where I learned to use 3D and CAD modeling software. So, when I went back to Valenza, I started working as a designer and CAD designer for jewelry in a studio that does rapid prototyping. This was my first introduction to the wonderful world of 3D printing.
How do your origins in Valenza influence your creations?
The experience of living in a new country opens you up to new facets of culture. My own cultural baggage contributes to my ability as a trend spotter, trends that become designs for my collections. Everything around me is inspiration - art, design, nature... For example my Black Rose collection is, of course, inspired by roses, but fashion and architecture also come up in my work, and for me,everything can be transformed into something wearable, into a bracelet, necklace or hat.
My experience allows me to analyze style within the fields of jewelry, the accessories industru and fashion objects. Jewelry and accessories are, for me, body ornaments that don't necessarily have to be made with traditionally luxurious materials like gold and diamonds, but rather can be made with the new digital fabrication techniques and alternative materials.
Tell us how you use 3D printing to make jewelry
3D printing or rapid manufacturing allows one to make intricate items in a single piece, like my Coral armband. For the printing of my designs I work with the most important services in the field: Shapeways (Eindhoven, Holland) i.materialise (Leuven, Belgium) or Sculpteo (Issy-les-Moulineaux, France). They use high resolution 3D printers that selectively fuse granular nylon powder into a solid. The part of the powder that does not get melted into a solid serves to sustain the delicate walls of the product while it is being made, reducing the need to design in temporary supports (as one would in traditional metalworking). Plus you can make things like a series of links in a single piece. The main limit of this technology is the materials, each of which (nylon, steel or ceramic) has precise rules for design, regarding especially thickness in the CAD project
Material or technique… Which has a more important role in your creations?
Both are very necessary. Unquestionably, material is very important to me as a designer of wearable items. Right now I'm working with 3D printing, but maybe tomorrow they'll be made in wood, textile, or a mix of these materials. My creative process is in continuous evolution, I don't want to be slave to any one technology. In this moment I am looking into combining 3D printing with other materials in order to give objects an even more unique touch.
Can you talk about the importance of collaboration?
The designer needs collaboration in order to grow, to learn new techniques and take on new challenges. You have to keep growing and remain up to date, not stay in a shell, by experimenting with new techniques, both traditional and modern, to create uniqueness rather than just replicate. One thing about 3D printing is that it is a great medium for making things that already exist. For me, I need to be sure to use it to create, not to RE-create.
Tell us about your inspiration
Everything is inspiration. Our role as designers is to transform this input into a decorative or functional object, to take in the aesthetic sense of a shape, place or anything else, make it grow and give it life as something new. Oftentimes, inspiration is a flash that comes to me, maybe before falling asleep. An idea that keeps me up all night because I have to put it down on paper. That sketch stays there for a while, matures, until I decide on the material that is going to make it live. Then, I start modeling that form, studying the material, making prototypes and following the whole creative process until that flash before bed becomes a bracelet, a necklace, a lamp, a fabulous dress or a magnificent palazzo.
How important is it for you to create?
I could never stop creating. My brain won't stop thinking up new forms. I think I would die if I weren't able to do this. I think this is common in people whose work derives from creative passion. Being creative means being a dreamer, imagining things in a different way, not just in art and aesthetics. I need to look, observe, touch physical things in order to understand how to make new forms.
Define your aesthetic
This is not easy. I always try to think of beauty when I create. As a jewelry designer, I am in a world dominated by fashion and elegance; my objects need to ornament the body and underline its features without making it ridiculous or ugly, even with large pieces like in the Snake Collection. I think that a jewel can also be thought of as a currency, not of luxury but as one that can make the bearer happy and give her a new character or feeling, like with the Sparkling collection. I am not focused on finding a recognizable style that characterizes all my works, but rather I want to give each object its own style that appeals to the person who will wear it.
Do you feel like a Maker?
To do. It's all about this verb: what we do is invent, create, play with forms, materials and colours. This is why I think of myself as a Maker, because really, I have always been one, it's something you have inside you, which combines with dreams and creativity that take on life and guide our hands to make them live.
What do you like about MakeTank?
I was struck by the youthful, fresh approach of MakeTank and the way that vendors and their creations are given pride of place. There's a nice variety of products offered, and each of them transmits the passion of the person who made it. Laura's enthusiasm and the work of her whole team have been fundamental. It's great to see my works surrounded by other interesting, attractive and creative items.
I chose to put my latest collections up on MakeTank, like the Black Rose Collection, with its simple and elegant floral silhouette, the Coralia bracelet which seems to have come straight out of a coral barrier, the more sculptural Snake Collection or the fresh and 'fizzy' Sparkling Collection, inspired by a good glass of Prosecco.

|The last day
Day 10 of the excavation
Friday 27 May 2016
What a fortnight.
The 'chapel' with the dias and cobbled floor that hadn't got either. The iron age roundhouses. The sow kiln. The rain. The sunshine. The features on the hill. The learning (for me). The friendship. The jokes. The finds: coal, iron, slate, charcoal, pot boilers (stones for heating water), a glass bead, flint, chert and cast iron.
No, we didn't find buried treasure. But we did make sense of a difficult site with what first appeared to be contradictory evidence.
Today was mainly finishing off: refilling the trenches with the stone, subsoil, top soil and turf we had removed. Hard physical work as opposed to slow and careful excavation. Hopefully, we left the site as we found it - a beautiful field overlooking Malham Tarn (with the occasional bump where we buried a fellow archaeologist).
I'd like to thank all fellow IAG members for their friendship and support throughout the fortnight.
I'd also like to thank Chris, Bob and Sarah for providing lots of excellent photographs.
JC. 27 May 2016
|Day 9 of the excavation
Thursday 26 May 2016
Nearly there. Started with a misty morning with constant fine drizzle, but it cleared to a fine day and we worked through to the end.
Work was confined to two trenches today: one over the kiln and one in the centre of one of the iron age roundhouses. (Note: 'roundhouse' is all one word - not the two I wrote yesterday). Finds of charcoal and flint (and chert) continue to surface, offering more chances of dating material and proof of human intervention in terms of 'importing' useful stone.
|OK, so
everyone makes a mistake once in a while. One of today's tasks was to
draw a plan of the trench over the sow kiln. This involves putting a
grid over the trench to aid the production of an accurate scale
drawing. When the excavation leader asks for a volunteer to do the
drawing, most IAG members suddenly get busy (in the opposite direction)
going to the loo, cleaning a find, closely inspecting a molehill,
polishing their trowel or thinking hard about what to have for tea that
I'm not saying it's difficult, but:
|So I thought I'd help and take a photo of the bottom of the trench, to give assistance to my colleague who was brave enough to volunteer. I stuck my phone out over the grid and tried to take the picture at arm's length. No joy. I tried again and the resulting picture looked nothing like the bottom of a kiln, more like a picture of the sky! One of my more observant colleagues then told me I was holding my phone (camera) upside down. There are times when being stupid is quite funny. Fortunately, this was one of them. Or at least, my colleagues seemed to think so.
surveying away from the trenches today. We're trying to identify
features in the wider Chapel Fell which we haven't excavated, with the
aid of the list from the HER (see day 5 of the excavation).
So far, we've identified:
Oh, and if anyone is wondering what 'chert' is (as I was) it's a type of stone with properties similar to flint, in that it can be worked into useful tool shapes. It's not quite as hard as flint, but can be found within limestone deposits. This means it would have to travel a shorter distance to get to Chapel Fell than flint, which is usually found in chalk deposits.
|Day 8 of the excavation
Wednesday 25 May 2016
OK. So I suppose it was too much to expect a fine, sunny day two days in a row. I set off from home fully expecting to be rained off all day. The weather forecast said heavy rain from 10am onwards, so the chances of doing much work on Chapel Fell were slim to nothing.
In fact, we worked through to half past two, when the heavy rain finally arrived.
|The sow kiln
trench continues to produce small finds. 'Sow' is apparently a
corruption of the word 'sough', which is a north-east dialect word
meaning 'rough'.
At one time, every large construction project - be it a large house, a bridge or a church - would have an associated kiln to burn limestone. The lime produced would be used to make lime mortar to aid the building process.
The burnt limestone (pictured left) is proof were are excavating such a kiln. This small find goes alongside many finds of charcoal from the same trench.
charcoal find can be used for dating the level of the trench where it
was found (carbon dating). If charcoal is found in the foundations of a
building, it's reasonable to assume the date of the charcoal
corresponds to the date of construction. In this way, we can gain
scientific evidence for the age of buildings.
We have to be careful not to touch the charcoal with our hands once it's been spotted. The dating process will pick up the smallest residue, and it would be a shame to ruin a sample simply by picking it up with our fingers.
Such finds are sent off to labs (at some expense) for testing. Needless to say, we wait patiently for the results.
trench across the rim and into the round house continues. Typical finds
(we hope) would include flint - not found locally and would have to be
'imported' - and charcoal - for dating purposes.
It's quite easy to say "This is an iron-age roundhouse" simply by looking at it. We hope to provide scientific evidence to back up such a statement.
|Day 7 of the excavation
Tuesday 24 May 2016
What a lovely day! Not a cloud in the sky.
Our usual baggage list - waterproofs, tough boots, trowel, kneeler, sandwiches, flask, folding chair - is incomplete. We now need to add: water and sun-block. Sunshine in Malham in May?
We had a number of visitors to the site today. It's good to think that others outside IAG have interest in what we're doing, whether they've made a special journey or just happened to be passing by on their jorney through North Yorkshire.
One new trench today - across one of the iron age round houses. Several bits of continuing work - the kiln, the surveying of the hillside and the measurements within the quarry.
We usually call anything of interest found on an archaeological site a 'small find'. After the metalwork found by our colleague today, perhaps we should rename this a 'large find'.
|Day 6 of the excavation
Monday 23 May 2016
Fine nearly all day with rain stopping play at around 3.45.
A new week with new challenges: we started a new trench around the sow kiln (nothing to do with pigs), excavated a little deeper in the test pit within one of the round houses, and attempted to measure how much material had come from the quarry next to the 'chapel'.
We also had a visit from a micro-biologist, wanting to take core samples from the kiln. Looking for bacteria.
More news on the 'chapel': A visitor to the excavation last Friday told us that there were records of an 'incomplete chapel' from the time just before the Civil War. The construction of a local chapel - probably halted through a compulsory call to arms of the local, able-bodied men - was possibly of Protestant origin, not Roman Catholic as originally thought. More later.
Deciding on the amount of material dug out of the local quarry (just a few metres away from the 'chapel') meant taking measurements of the hillside and estimating the difference between what is still there, and what was once there before quarrying started. Not an easy task, and one for an expert in 3D trigonomtery. Unfortunately, we don't have an expert in 3D trigonomtry on site, so I got the job. One of the consequences of not having much surveying to do today.

text: News Drug shortages still exist as 54 medical facilities licensed – CMO March 8, 2019 Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Shamdeo Persaud has disclosed that 54 medical institutions across the country have received their licences to operate thus paving the way for others to be accepted under the programme after reaching the acceptable standards. Persaud said that for these institutions to meet the requirements, they must be operating as a health facility within the criteria set out by the Public Health Ministry. "Through our licensing programme, we were able to licence 54 health facilities across Guyana, both public and private. We're looking at having all of our facilities at some point in time, adequately licensed, meaning that they would meet all of the standards for operating a health facility within our jurisdiction," he said. According to him, there are still circumstances surrounding the shortage of supplies and patients complaining about the fact that they are not getting the required amount of prescription drugs. He is of the view that more can be done to ensure that these resources are managed prudently. Chief Medical OfficerShamdeo Persaud "Issues with supplies still exist and even though the system has improved, we still have some instances of shortages. I think there could be more in terms of how we manage those resources. We still have patients complaining that they're not getting the required amount of medications. The shortages and difficulties we experience with commodities will get better," he stated. The CMO also recognised challenges within the procurement procedure and insisted that the regional administration was granted a sum of money to purchase medications should a shortage exist. "There have been some challenges with procurement and most of the regions do have a fallback mechanism where they can buy supplies for short periods of time to supplement what the ministry provides," said Persaud. Several health centres across the West Coast of Demerara were facing significant drug shortages earlier this year, causing some patients to worry as to whether they would have to purchase basic medications. The issue started at the West Demerara Regional Hospital (WDRH) and continued at the Leonora Cottage Hospital and the Meten-Meer-Zorg Health Centre. Sources at the WDRH confirmed on Thursday that many individuals, primarily senior citizens, were diagnosed with illnesses and were left with no choice but to leave without any medicine. Junior Public Health Minister Karen Cummings had told this publication that medicinal shortages were also caused as a result of the lengthy procedures at the National Procurement and Tender Administration Board (NPTAB), but efforts are in progress to eliminate these setbacks. She also noted that medicines reach Guyana after "metropolitan" countries are supplied. Adding to that, Regional Officers have sufficient funds, should hospitals request additional drugs.

From George Washington to Major General John Sullivan, 25 July 1777
To Major General John Sullivan
Pumpton Plains [N.J.] July the 25: 1777.
Dr Sir
It is with no small concern, I am constrained to inform you, that I am constantly receiving Complaints from the People living contiguous to the Road of great abuses committed by the Division under your Command in their march through the Country. From their accounts, they have experienced the most wanton and insufferable injuries—Fences destroyed without the least apparent necessity, and a great number of Horses seized & taken away—In a word, according to them, they have suffered the most flagrant violation of their property. Perhaps their representations may be rather exaggerated beyond the bounds of strict truth—But I cannot but observe, that the Officers in the Quarter Master General's department have informed me, that more Accounts have been presented to them, for Injuries done by your Division & of greater amounts than by the whole Army besides, and those carrying too a degree of authenticity with them, being certified in many Instances under the Officers hands. At the same time, that you are sensible how distressing such a conduct is to the Inhabitants, you well know it is highly disgraceful and unworthy of the Cause in which we are engaged—Add to this that it has a fatal & obvious tendency to prejudice their minds and to disaffect 'em. I must request, in the most earnest manner, your attention to this matter and to prevent in future by every exertion in your power, the like proceedings point out the scandal and impropriety of it to your Officers & urge them as they regard their honor and reputation, to use their endeavours to restrain such unwarrantable practices. I am Dr Sir Yr Most Obedt Servant.

Intersection Cohomology
Part of the Modern Birkhäuser Classics book series (MBC, volume 50)
Part of the Modern Birkhäuser Classics book series (MBC, volume 50)
This book is a publication in Swiss Seminars, a subseries of Progress in Mathematics. It is an expanded version of the notes from a seminar on intersection cohomology theory, which met at the University of Bern, Switzerland, in the spring of 1983.
This volume supplies an introduction to the piecewise linear and sheaf-theoretic versions of that theory as developed by M. Goresky and R. MacPherson in Topology 19 (1980), and in Inventiones Mathematicae 72 (1983). While some familiarity with algebraic topology and sheaf theory is assumed, the notes include a self-contained account of further material on constructibility, derived categories, Verdier duality, biduality, and on stratified spaces, which is used in the second paper but not found in standard texts.
"The volume should be useful to someone interested in acquiring some basic knowledge about the field..." —Mathematical Reviews

How Much Money I Earned on YouTube for 1 Million Views on a Video
42 comments
Hello DTube and Steemians!
In this video I talk about how much money I earned on YouTube with 1 video that reached 1 Million views. I wanted to share with you the type of money you can expect to make on YouTube. It definitely varies between channels. Some videos that reach 1 Million views will make more or less then others. But at least this gives you a ball park. It is also worth pointing out that it took quite awhile for that video to reach that amount. This particular video that I am talking about is my "How to Make Crepes" video from my cooking channel, In the Kitchen with Matt. A few days ago it finally reached 1 Million views and I was super excited. Making money on YouTube is definitely doable although if you are just starting out you will make more on DTube so make sure you are uploading to both platforms! It may get frustrating at times, just don't give up, hang in there and keep at it! : )
Don't forget to follow me and check out my other posts.
If you have any questions or comments drop them down below and I will get back to you as soon as I can. :)
You can watch the video here on YouTube as well if you like:
Thanks for stopping by!

Teague rushed for 217 yards on 17 carries in Blackman's 49-14 win over Coffee County on Friday.
(Note to readers: We asked the members of The Tennessean's Dandy Dozen to share in their own words why they chose the school they signed with during the early football signing period. Blackman's Master Teague writes why he signed with Ohio State.)
There are a lot of reasons that I signed with Ohio State.
The decision was a family decision that involved me, my mother and my father. We spent a lot of time visiting at schools and talking to coaches.
We frequently talked with running back coaches, head coaches and offensive coordinators.
We knew that The Ohio State had solid program. It is a program with solid coaches and a winning tradition. There is little chance that there will be a coaching change.
It is also a program that does a great job at developing good football players into elite football players. Coach (Urban) Meyer doesn't just want his players to get a degree but he wants to help them start a career and he makes sure that certain things are in place to make sure that happens.
The Ohio State program also gives me that opportunity to grow as a man and into the man I desire to be.
My faith is very important to me and I will be able to continue to grow in that area of my life at The Ohio State.
Other schools offer this as well but it was also something I could do at Ohio State. The running back coach, coach (Tony) Alford, is very motivating to me, which was noticeable whenever he came to my practices.
Blackman's Master Teague power cleans 340 pounds. Teague is a four-star running back for the Class of 2018.
My coaches and parents could tell that I practiced a little different when he was there. Also, The Ohio State provides a great opportunity for me to play as the featured running back at a great program.
I have been able to talk to and work out with some of the running backs who are already there and that was great and promising to experience.

Internship opportunities at the EU Delegation to Ukraine
Objectives of traineeships
Traineeship in EU Delegations has the following main objectives:
- to provide trainees with a unique experience about the daily work of an EU Delegation while learning about the representation of EU interests and values outside of the EU;
- to offer trainees the possibility of discovering directly the multicultural, multilingual and multi-ethnic working environment of an international organisation such as the EU;
- to offer trainees the possibility of applying the knowledge acquired during their studies or their early professional life;
- to create a group of young people with direct experience in the work of the EU outside of its borders and who could become future collaborators of the EEAS or other EU institutions;
- to enhance the connection between the EU Delegation and the local academic and University world when trainees are recruited locally.
Who can apply?
Traineeships are addressed:
- To students, in the framework of an agreement with a local university, who undertake a compulsory or recommended training period as part of their course and are already residing in the place of training.
- To trainees receiving financial support from a university or another institution but located elsewhere in the world.
Traineeship opportunities in the Delegation
Traineeship positions may be established where there is an interest by the Delegation and where the Delegation has adequate logistical capacity to host trainees in a budget neutral manner. Once there is an explicit need and possibility to host an intern at the Delegation, respective vacancy announcement will be placed on the Delegation's website and on the Delegation's Facebook page.
Please note that:
- Internships at the Delegation are not remunerated by the Delegation.
- The intern is responsible for covering all costs related to travel, visa and medical insurance.
- The intern is also responsible for finding suitable accommodation and covering accommodation costs for the duration of the internship.
Internships take place at the EU Delegation based in Kyiv, Ukraine.
The training period involves obtaining practical experience in one of the Delegation's departments. Tasks given to trainees may include compiling information and documentation, organising working groups, forums, public hearings and meetings, preparing reports/analyses and replying to queries, participation in team meetings, filing, photocopying, linguistic revision of texts, etc.
Eligible candidates for traineeships
Academic background and Universities
Candidates are University students (in their 3rd, 4th, or 5th academic year). Each Delegation will decide which diplomas and studies may be relevant to the type of traineeship they offer. Candidates will present an ability to communicate in the main working languages of the Delegation (English and Ukrainian/Russian).
Previous professional experience
The traineeship programme is foreseen for candidates with no professional experience. Other internships are not considered as professional experience. The EEAS wishes to offer to as many people as possible the opportunity of training. Therefore, applications will not be accepted from candidates who have already benefited or benefit from any kind of training (formal or informal, paid or unpaid) within an EU institution.
Candidates should be nationals from the EU Member States, pre-accession States or citizens of Ukraine.
Selection process
Whenever there is a possibility to offer the internship, the Delegation will organise the selection process based on merit and aimed at ensuring as much as possible that all candidates are treated in a fair, transparent and non-discriminatory way.
Selection procedures:
1. Candidates may be selected from Universities (local and worldwide) in implementation of a specific agreement signed by the University and the EU Delegation.
2. Spontaneous application of students receiving a grant/scholarship from the University or another institution, as mentioned above.
Spontaneous applications can be sent to firstname.lastname@example.com
Spontaneous applications are kept on file and are considered when the opportunity to take an intern arises. Only preselected candidates are contacted.
Traineeships may be offered in any Section of the Delegation.
A traineeship agreement will be signed by the trainee, the University and his/her supervisor in the Delegation before the start date of the traineeship. The trainee will have to declare that there is no real or potential conflict of interest.
The documents to be submitted by the selected candidate:
- Passport or identity card, stating the name, first name, date and place of birth, as well as the nationality. The spelling of the name, first name and the nationality must be the same as those declared in the application form.
- Attestation of a sickness/accident insurance valid during the period of an internship (covering candidate on the territory of Ukraine).
- A recommendation letter from the University
- Traineeship agreement signed by the three parties (the trainee, the sending University/Institution and the EU Delegation receiving the trainee).
- Signed motivation letter
Given that all required documents submitted by the selected candidate are in order, the internship shall start in 5 week time. This time is required to verify the documents by the Delegation, to validate the internship by the Headquarters and to grant all necessary IT accesses for the coming trainee. Candidates for an internship at the Delegation shall consider this time-frame when sending their applications.
Duration of the traineeship
The usual duration of a traineeship should not exceed 6 months. The working conditions and the status of the trainee in the host country should be in full conformity with the local legislation. Hence, maximal possible time to do the internship for EU citizens is restricted within 90 days (no visa required period) unless an EU citizen candidate already resides in Ukraine. The internship period shall be limited by the official term of such residency. The Delegation cannot provide any visa support for a candidate who intends to do internship at the Delegation.
Expatriate trainees have to register with their national Consulate or Embassy or any other resident diplomatic representation competent for their nationality. This is particularly important in case of an emergency or evacuation.
Duty of discretion and non-disclosure of information
Trainees shall observe the greatest discretion in regard to all facts and information of which they become aware in the context of their traineeship or presence on the premises of the Delegation.
Trainees shall not communicate to any third party any information, correspondence or documents which they are required to draw up or of which they become aware of in the course of carrying out their assignments, or be party to any statement, interview or publication relating to matters dealt with in the course of their assignments.
The traineeship cannot start until the trainee has offered written evidence that he/she has a suitable insurance sickness/accident which covers expenses occurred abroad. For expatriate trainees, it is highly recommended to complete guarantees offered by the insurance with specific repatriation coverage. The EEAS has included trainees under the AXA insurance scheme for non-statutory staff, covering death or injury during the traineeship period. However, this is a complementary insurance and it does not replace the main insurance to be obtained by the trainee himself/herself.
End of traineeship
At the end of their traineeship period, trainees should complete a report detailing the work that they have carried out during their traineeship and their assessment of their experience. The Supervisor should also contribute to this report and provide some guidance and advice, if appropriate, in the final report.
The premature end of the traineeship shall be agreed by both sides.

Fox News psychologist Gina Loudon argued to Sean Hannity that Donald Trump is not only mentally up to the job but that he might be the most psychologically fit occupant of the Oval Office ever!
Loudon, who seems to have replaced Dr. Keith Ablow as the Fox News shrink most in need of one, visited the Hannity show last night after a senior Trump administration official anonymously published a devastating editorial in the New York Times about Trump's unfitness for office,
Loudon used the occastion to flack both her book and Trump on the air.
LOUDON: My book actually uses science and real data and true psychological theory to explain why it is quite possible that this president is the most sound-minded person to ever occupy the White House.
Of course, nobody asked what science or data or "true psychological theory" she used. But her book's description on Amazon does not exactly promise scientific rigor:
In Mad Politics, Fox News commentator, radio host, and psychological analyst Dr. Gina Loudon diagnoses the problem with America's status quo politics. Loudon has unique insight into both the Trump campaign and the larger political landscape as a member of the president's 2020 media advisory board, a former surrogate for his campaign, the wife of a former Senator from Missouri, the co-host of a national Television show, a seasoned psychological analyst on FOX News, CNN and others, and a twice pedigreed Master and Ph.D.
With authority and wit, Mad Politics exposes cultural patterns that have led to today's political narcissism. She scans the psychological literature and illuminates a formula to answer the question: How can we restore a sound mind to the body politic? The answer, Loudon concludes, may be in joining Trump in a complete rejection of political correctness.
Nor does Loudon's tweet claiming she has more credibility than Pulitzer Prize winner Bob Woodward. His latest book was already roiling the White House with its explosive details before the Times editorial was published.
My new book, #MadPolitics DESTROYS #Woodward's drivel about @realDonaldTrump.— Gina Gentry Loudon (@RealDrGina) September 5, 2018
My book is based on solid scientific research, fact, & knowing President Trump & his family.
His book is based on gossip, inuendo, & partisan fantasy. #PickYOURPoison https://t.co/JZnGF2qChc
The Washington Post, which got an advance copy of the not-yet-released book, says it "paints a harrowing portrait of the Trump presidency, based on in-depth interviews with administration officials and other principals." The book does not, I am pretty darned sure, psychoanalyze Trump.
Nevertheless, Loudon touted her superior psychological insight into Trump – without refuting any fact reported by Woodward:
LOUDON: Woodward doesn't know the president. I don't know how many graduate courses he's taken in psychology … I know his family and I know the people around him. I've seen him relaxing … I've seen him in the White House and you know him. You know how focused he is, how much he's enjoying his job … and how unaffected he is by them.
Watch Loudon's crackpot assertions below, from the September 5, 2018 Hannity.
- Or is she simply promoting her book ?
Though the most hilarious thing is a Trumpster trying to make the argument a president with clinical narcissism is in America's best interest. Typically real psychologists don't promote mental illness as a good thing.
Last time I checked scientific inquiry is unbiased and evidence based. This woman crawled out of Trump's ass to show up on "Hannity".
I've never seen someone who calls herself a psychologist act so little like a psychologist. "Sound mind" is a legal expression, ""Derangement syndrome" is a snarky put down. Neither is a psychological term, but apparently Gina's OK with "most people" continuing to use the latter expression for Trump's critics even though in an excerpt from her book on Google she criticizes, "political as well as financial reasons for labeling people with alleged disorders."
In her book Gina owns up to herself having tested "somewhere on the narcissist spectrum". "Somewhere"?? She admits she has "never had any sort of clinical access to [Trump]" or to "inventories he may have taken". These are examples of her "real data".
She writes, "I don't even do clinical work….Still, my gut instincts, which have nothing to do with my professional training, are pretty solid." The copyright page of her book credits three separate versions of the Bible. These her "true theory" and her "science".
Her solid gut instinct tells her Trump "could be" a narcissist. Ya think? Having allowed as how both she and her beloved President might be narcissists, she proceeds to argue that narcissism has gotten a bad rap and that "if the president is a narcissist, it is the best form of narcissism."
If anyone needs to be examine it's Crazy, Crooked Corrupted Dictator Trumpy.
Hannie Pie's Trump world is falling apart before his eyes, and he can't stop it. Staffers and White House officials have gone against that lunatic in the White House.
The Stop Hannity Express says Pie will suffer a major meltdown when another gem hits the streets. This gem is going to be huge. We say HUGE! And he can't stop it.
Pie is not out of the woods. His name will pop up very soon, and this Long Island Omen will have to answer to The Heels about his actions.
Pie's private conversations with certain people will become public knowledge-in time. If Pie wants to know who sold him down the Hudson River, he can ask Robert Mueller, the IRS and other federal authorities.
Pie thinks the Dictator will save his skin from future legal actions. Ahahahahaha!
It's time for the masses to call all radio talk shows, local and national, with this script. You can change it to your liking. Or, use it for your editorials.
"Thanks for taking my call. I'm very concerned about the continued, chaotic fallout that plagues this Administration. It seems people in President Trump's inner-circle have been either charged with a crime, or about to be charged. Even if they weren't charged with a crime, the association with these former associates is too toxic for their families and friends. Paul Manafort's daughter petition a court to have her last name changed to protect her financial future. Frankly, I don't blame her.
The president still has his defenders on television and radio, and speak on his behalf on these networks and at fundraising galas that invite these folks.
This is my opinion, but nonprofit organizations should stay away from anyone defending this president and his administration. It's too toxic right now and the risks of losing donors is too great for those organizations. Again, that's my personal opinion."
Listen to your friends. Protect your future.

The 1977 Fort McMurray AOSERP Moose Census: Analysis and Interpretation of Results
- Author(s) / Creator(s)
A stratified random sampling procedure involving a helicopter census of square-mile (2.6 km2) quadrats in a 648 mi2 (1,678 km2) pilot area in the AOSERP study area was continued in February 1977. The census produced a weighted mean estimate of 0.49 moose/mi2 (0.19/km2), or a study area estimate of 320 moose ± 29 percent. This was not significantly different from the population of 363± 30 percent estimated in 1976. The 1977 moose population of 320 moose was contained in an estimated 196 groups distributed on 23 percent of the square-mile study area quadrats at the time of census. Analysis of front and back observer data indicated a visibility bias in the 1977 census of approximately 50 percent. Adequate visibility bias models are required to provide biologically meaningful and statistically reliable estimates on any future moose censuses of the area.

Google followed Apple's move to eliminate the 3.5mm headphone jack on the Pixel 2, and like the handset itself, Google designed a pair of headphones to best show off Google Assistant's capabilities. Real-time translation is possible, so you can have a conversation with someone who speaks one of 40 foreign tongues. As soon as you pair them with your Pixel or Android phone running Nougat or higher, Assistant is available.
Unlike Apple's AirPods, the Pixel Buds have a wire connecting the two earpieces. However, that wire doesn't connect to a smartphone or other device. Pixel Buds will pair via Bluetooth to the new Pixel smartphones and presumably any other devices that accept Bluetooth wireless earbuds.
All of the Pixel Buds' controls are built in to the right earpiece, which is a common hardware solution on wireless earbuds. You can access Google Assistant by tapping or pressing on the right earbud, and the Assistant will be able to read notifications and messages to you through the Buds.
The headphones come with a pocket-sized charging case, with 5 hours of listening time with one charge, although the case itself gives you up to 24 hours of listening time on the go.
They will be available in the same colors as the Pixel 2: Clearly White, Kinda Blue and Just Black. At a price of $159, pre-orders begin today.

The Battle of Wireless earbuds
Apple's iPhone 7 is definitely the most important and popular phone to discard the headphone jack, and Apple is dragging the industry toward a wireless future, whether we like it or not. At least the company provided its own solution, $159 AirPods, are one of the newest truly wireless earbuds you can buy. By truly wireless, they are just two buds that sit in both ears without anything connecting them. Much like other Apple technology, AirPods are not the only truly wireless buds on the market.
Like other Apple technologies, AirPods have a unique spin that sets them apart from the competition. Apple hopes to convince consumers that its buds are the best to pair with their iPhones, but consumers have many options to choose from when it comes to competing wireless earbuds.

Apple AirPods: The AirPods can be easily pair with an iPhone or other Apple device. The W1 chip inside of them lets you flip open the lid of their charging case, and your iPhone will pull up a pairing window. This takes the headache out of pairing another Bluetooth device to your iPhone, and it's especially easy compared to other wireless buds that use regular Bluetooth pairing (something the AirPods can also do, if you need to pair them with something that doesn't run iOS).
Beats Powerbeats3: The Powerbeats3 are in line with the rest of the family, and they have that traditional over-ear design that places a flexible piece of plastic over the outside of your ear. I was never a big fan of this design until a few years ago when I used a bunch of them and found that the bendable hook really helps keep the buds in place. Beats also includes various-sized ear tips in the Powerbeats3 box, letting you adjust the fit of the buds in your ear canal.
Skybuds: $249 Skybuds come nestled in their charging case, a small, squarish pod, and pop up out when you want to use them. Each bud is a silver orb with ear tips sticking out of the narrowest end. Both the left and the right bud look identical, each with a square button on its back that has a glowing rim of light around it. These buttons act as your onboard controls for music playback, and the colored light shines blue when they turn on (automatically, when they come out of the case) and red when you stick them back in the case to turn them off.
Motorola VerveOne: Motorola got into the wireless audio action last year with a handful of wireless earbuds, including the $199 VerveOnes. These are one of three truly wireless earbuds that Motorola makes, and they look like a rounded-oval version of Skybuds. They, too, have physical buttons on both the left and right bud. The left VerveOne bud acts as the master module and transmits sound and information to the right bud. They live in a tubular case that you twist open to reveal the charging inserts for each bud.

The eternal breakfast struggle continues. My husband says he doesn't like smoothies because they are too sweet and hurt his stomach. As a family with gluten, dairy and egg intolerances, kicking smoothies off the menu leaves us with leaves us with frustratingly few options for breakfast.
Thankfully, I've crafted a Facebook newsfeed that includes some of the best wellness bloggers around. On any random day, I am inspired by a new recipe or idea that gets us through the week, which I often share on our Facebook feed. (Follow us HERE.)
This week's miracle was inspired by Dr. Mark Hyman's Green Breakfast Smoothie. A smoothie without fruit.
