This is Marion and Thomas. We have Maya, a Goldendoodle puppy (5 months).
Even though the cutest dog in the world Maya's behavior clearly needed some adjustments.
We called Jim Burwell and asked for help. Jim came to our home and gave us simple, specific and extremely logical advice on how to train our puppy.
This included walking on a leash, not jumping on the kitchen table, not running through the house, not biting and so on.
We must say that after only 2 weeks we do not recognize our puppy anymore. Maya turned into an obedient dog following commands and being well behaved.
We would have never thought that a dog could change to the positive in such a short period of time.
We think Jim's methods are sensitive and highly adapted to the individual situation of the dog owner. Jim did an excellent job.

A new report from Coram Voice - Our Lives, Our Care: Looked after children's views on their well-being in 2018 - provides an insight into the factors affecting the experiences of children in care compared to other children, for example their relationships with carers and social workers. The report emphasises how important it is to listen to children's voices.
The report is part of Coram Voice's Bright Spots Programme, which was established with the University of Bristol five years ago help to improve the wellbeing of children and young people in care by listening to their experiences, which are then used to identify and promote practices that have a positive impact on them.
The report is based on the Your Life, Your Care survey which was developed in conjunction with professionals and 140 young people.
This year, 2,684 children and young people from 17 English local authorities and aged between four and 18 were asked about their views on their wellbeing.
After the 2017 pilot of its Your Life Beyond Care survey, the Bright Spots Programme is now also starting to look at the experiences of care leavers.

Iqbal Singh, new Lieutenant-Governor of Puducherry
By Gopal Ethiraj, Chennai
[caption id="attachment_3139" align="alignright" width="230" caption="Iqbal Singh sworn in as the new Lieutenant-Governor of Puducherry"][/caption]
Puducherry, 28 July, (Asiantribune.com): Congress leader and former Rajya Sabha member Iqbal Singh was sworn in as the 20th Lieutenant-Governor of the Union Territory on Monday. Chief Justice of the Madras High Court H. L. Gokhale administered the oath of office and secrecy to him at a brief function.
Iqbal suuceeds Govind Singh Gurjar who died of heart attack in April last, following which Tamil Nadu Governor Surjit Singh Barnala was holding as additional charge the Union Territory.
Union Minister of State for Planning, Parliamentary Affairs and Culture V.Narayanaswamy, Chief Minister V. Vaithilingam, Speaker Radhakrishnan, Consul General of France in Puduchery Jollie Rayat, Ministers and legislators, political leaders and senior government officials were among those present.
After the swearing-in ceremony, Mr. Singh, in his message, thanking for the splendid opportunity bestowed upon him to serve the people of Puducherry, said his priority would be to endeavor to enhance the quality of life, and make Union Territory a model of "inclusive growth."
Mr Singh said steps would be taken to accelerate economic growth with equitable opportunities provided to women and weaker sections of society. The Uniform Floor Rate tax structure was posing a challenge to the trading sector, he said. Other area such as tourism, with new infrastructure, could help the territory regain its position as a most sough-after destination.
Development of infrastructure, airport, free ports and special economic zones should be given high priority to ensure momentum of economic growth. On the achievements made in the higher education sector, he said "this quantitative achievement would soon turn out to be a qualitative achievement, when institutions compete with each other to achieve excellence."
Mr. Singh hails from Jalandhar in Punjab. He is 64. He has been Secretary of AICC for 12 years.

Letchworth 5-1 Stevenage
PUBLISHED: 18:53 13 November 2017
Letchworth Hockey Club's fifth team beat Stevenage 5-1 on Saturday.
Goals from Ashley Brown who grabbed a brace, Ben Silverston, Chris Waynforth and Richard Pearce meant eight games into the season the club are more than holding their own in the league with the weekend's result further cementing its position.
A strong defence and midfield kept almost all the play in the Stevenage half after an early Letchworth goal set the pace and with the score a commanding 3-0 at half-time it would have been easy for them to slow done.
But a hungry Letchworth side kept up the pressure as the Stevenage goalkeeper the busiest player on the pitch at times as he batted away the fastest of the shots. But his valiant actions weren't enough to prevent some excellent play, solid passing and strong finishes from Letchworth to lead them to victory as they added another two goals with Stevenage grabbing a consolation.
The goal of the match came from Ben Silveston who scored with a deft touch.

National Nutrition Month
Nutrition Month is celebrated every March by Dietitians of Canada. There's no one diet that is right for everyone, so it's important to follow a healthful eating plan that's packed with tasty foods and that keeps your unique lifestyle in mind.
The campaign focuses on the importance of making informed food choices and developing sound eating and physical activity habits.
"Go Further with Food" is the theme for 2018, and its importance is timely for many reasons. Whether it's starting the day off right with a healthy breakfast or fueling before an athletic event, the foods you choose can make a difference. Preparing foods to go further at home and within the community can have a positive impact, as well.

ARRA Investments in Environmental Determinants of Cardiovascular Disease
Public Health Burden
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) remain the number one cause of death and disability in the United States. While there are several well-established lifestyle risk factors for CVD, such as smoking, diet and physical activity, numerous environmental contaminants have also been shown or are suspected to contribute to CVD-related mortality and disability. Such exposures include air pollution, heavy metals and organophosphate pesticides.
Early Markers of Exposure Response
The development of atherosclerosis, the primary underlying pathogenic process of CVD, begins in early life and continues to progress over an individual's lifetime, ultimately resulting in CVD in some individuals. Scientists hypothesize chronic exposure to some environmental contaminants during childhood and adolescence may contribute to this process and lead to development of CVD later in life. Studies using early markers of abnormal cardiovascular function will help clarify how early life environmental exposures may lead to future CVD risk. Several ARRA funded grants are exploring early markers of environmental exposure response in relation to CVD and/or assessing the utility of these markers in studies of young adults and children. These projects will:
Study the association between lifetime exposure to air pollution and carotid intima media thickness (CMIT), a measure of atherosclerosis, in college students and elementary-school children.
Evaluate the reliability of CIMT measurements as a measure of early atherosclerosis in research involving otherwise healthy young adults and children.
Evaluate the use of arterial wall stiffness, another indicator of atherosclerosis, as a potentially valuable indicator of early cardiovascular disease progression in relation to lifetime air pollution.
Assess the association between increased lead exposure and vascular function in response to acute stress in children.
Attempt to develop potential biological markers to predict susceptibility to cardiovascular disease in an African American population exposed to pesticides in the South.
Biological Mechanisms Contributing to CVD
Numerous mechanisms have been proposed to explain how environmental contaminants cause and/or exacerbate underlying CVD, but the exact mechanism(s) by which exposures lead to negative biological effects remain unclear. A better understanding of the mechanisms by which specific environmental exposures impact cardiovascular function may improve public health communication and clinical interventions, and could ultimately lead to a reduction in CVD-related disease and disability. Several ARRA funded grants are examining the biological mechanism by which environmental exposures impact cardiovascular function. These studies will:
Investigate the impact of short-term and long-term air pollution exposure on systemic inflammation, oxidative stress and atherogenesis in children.
Examine the impact of environmental tobacco smoke (second-hand smoke) on inflammation, the function of blood vessel cells and oxidative stress in children and whether obesity intensifies these effects.
Investigate how pesticide exposure impacts cholesterol metabolism and transport and may lead to the development of atherosclerosis.
Investigate the impact of arsenic on vascular function to better understand the adverse cardiovascular impacts of arsenic exposures.
Investigate the contribution of light/dark cycles on the progression of cardiovascular disease to better understand the biological basis for increased incidence of CVD in shift workers.

I was shocked to find out that my brothers Google voice number, now belongs to a man who told me he was issued the phone number by his company. Everytime I try to call my brothers phone number, it always rings to some man. The man finally told me he will notify his employer about this issue, after numerous people tried calling him thinking it's my brothers number. Well now it's both his number and my brothers number (I know that makes zero sense).
My brother and I registered the number a few weeks before the unknown man received that same number from his employer. Google voice really needs some serious work.
The most annoying thing about Google voice is "Due to fast pickup, press 1 to confirm your not a spammer".
If only the Google voice team can have the same management as the Google Chrome team then we would have a superior product in our hands.
How can Google voice possibly think your a spammer, just because you picked up your phone very fast? People obviously have to verify their phone number by entering 2 digits on their landline or cell phone.

- The 3k diverts from the 5k and 10k on Columbia in the first kilometre. It uses a scenic section of the Laurel Trail before joining up with the other races on Hagey Blvd.
Course Rules
It is every participant's responsibility to know the course and the race assumes no responsibility for any missed turns. Each turn will be marshaled and signed. Courses are pending approval and may change with municipal needs.
Time limit: 10 minutes per kilometer. Starting at the half way mark of the 10k, if a participant does not reach a km mark by this calculated time, the participant will be asked to move to the sidewalk and finish the race as a pedestrian, unassisted by race support. Participants are asked to familiarize themselves with the course route if this situation might be a possibility to them. We wish to minimize traffic disruption caused by our event, and value the support of Police services regarding participant safety.
Participant swag: T-SHIRT and MEDAL
We've got exciting stuff planned for 2020; stay tuned! For reference, here is the 2019 info:
We are ecstatic about the 2019 shirt: a bold, sublimated design from our friends at Surge Activewear.
The first 1,000 registered participants receive this fabulous sublimated t-shirt, in the 10k/5k/3k only (not including 200m).

Race history
The Waterloo Classic 10 KM Road Race is the oldest continuing race of it's kind in Waterloo Region.
Its long and storied history is one of sporting and community tradition since the inaugural event in 1978. It was held at University Stadium (formerly Seagram Stadium) every year from 1978 – 2014 except for 2007, when it was displaced by turf installation. Since 2015, it has been displaced by LRT construction. We are currently sifting through the boxes of newspaper clippings and black & white photos to share these stories; for example, did you know that once in the early 1990s, it snowed?
Rich Hughson won the inaugural running in a time of 31:39. Through various course changes, the event record today is 29:46 by Paul Lockhart in 1985 (which beat his brother Greg Lockhart's 1981 record by ONE second!) Jackie Mota holds the female record at 33:47 in 1997. Overall, we have seen 5 sub-30 times throughout the years, and with 5, Clive Hamilton holds the record for most victories.
One of our favourite stories comes from 1988, when two runners who would represent Canada in Seoul later that fall ran the Classic. Doug Consiglio (Canadian 1500m champion) and Peter Maher (Canadian marathoner) competed in the 10 KM. Of the two Olympians, who would come out with the win? Explore the full records here.
The 3 KM (1996) and 5 KM (1997) events were added in the 1990s to meets the modern needs of families and all types of runners. But the 10 KM distance remains the signature challenge of The Waterloo 10 KM Classic.
For the past 43 years, The Classic has raised money for such worthy organizations as Child Find, Red Cross, Food Bank, Canadian Diabetes Association, Lung Association, Crohn's and Colitis, K-W Habilitation Services, The Waterloo Recreation Complex, K-W Firefighters Defibrillation Program, The Betty Thompson Youth Centre, Citizens Concerened with Crime against Children, the Hospice of Waterloo Region, C.O.D. Riding Program, K-W Counselling Services, K-W Special Olympics, Books for Birthdays, Freeport Hospital, Heartwood Place, Extend-A-Family, University of Waterloo Women's Sport Initiative, and local amateur athletics.
Race results and records

The first decision is what to plant, a choice that should be based on what you and your family like to eat. If only one person in your family of five likes okra, you may be better off buying it occasionally at the farmers' market. If everyone enjoys tomatoes, chiles, bell peppers, zucchini, eggplant, snap beans, cucumbers, sweet corn and cantaloupes, then these are the fruits and vegetables to focus on.
Next you must decide where to plant. Maybe in years past, your vegetable garden started out in full sun, but by Labor Day, the sun's path had moved behind the trees. If so, your tomatoes were probably still green at Halloween. Did gophers and voles enjoy too much of last year's crop? Consider building a few raised beds with hardware cloth on the bottom. You will need a sunny spot away from trees, preferably with a hose bib nearby.
Let's imagine that you have three new 4- by 8-foot raised beds to work with. Now you need to decide how much to plant. A raised bed of that size can accommodate four to six tomato plants, so there goes one bed. In a second bed, you can fit 10 to 12 plants of chiles, bell peppers, eggplants, or snap beans. Now you have one bed left.
If you planted two zucchini plants last year, you probably discovered that the yield was more than your family could eat. Maybe you took the excess to the Napa Crop Swap but found that everyone else also had zucchini to swap. So one zucchini plant should suffice this year.
If you want snap beans throughout the summer, leave space for succession planting. You'll want to set out two or three plants every three weeks. One or two cucumber plants satisfy most households, so you've now used up half to two-thirds of your last raised bed. Still left to plant are cantaloupe and corn, and you don't have enough room for both. Corn grows more thaneight feet tall andmay cast shadeon yourother sun-loving crops. Better to plant cantaloupe in the remaining space and buy your sweet corn at the farmers' market.
If you want to start plants from seed, you need to get started right away. It takes six to eight weeks for the seeds to germinate and the seedlingsto grow large enough to transplant. If you prefer to plant nursery seedlings, you can relax as you don't need to purchase those until you are ready to plant. Wait to plant summer vegetables until the danger of frost has passed, which is usually around mid-April. To be safe, plant no earlier than the last week of April.
Although we have had rain recently, we are still in a drought. Consider this when you make your vegetable selections. It may be wiser to plant a 'Stupice' tomato that matures in 62 days rather than a 'Cherokee Purple' that needs 85 days to reach maturity. (Seed packets indicate days to maturity.) Faster maturation means fewer days of irrigation.
To help your soil retain moisture, work in several inches of compost. Don't feed plants too much nitrogen as this will encourage leafy growth that requires water to sustain. Once your garden is planted, add a layer of mulch several inches thick. Mulch will keep the soil cool, conserve water and inhibit weeds.
Tomato Plant Sale: Napa County Master Gardeners will hold their second annual "Tomato Plant Sale and Education Day" on Saturday, April 19, in the South Oxbow parking lot on First Street in Napa. The sale will be held from 9:00 a.m. until sold out. All the seedlings have been started from seed and grown by Napa County Master Gardeners. More than 50 varieties of heirloom and hybrid tomato plants will be available. Master Gardeners will staff information tables on tomato support structures, common tomato pests and diseases, composting, good bug/bad bug displays and a mobile help desk. For a list of available tomato varieties, visit http://ucanr.org/ucmgnapa or call the Help Desk (hours below).
Workshop: Napa County Master Gardeners will conduct a workshop on "The Small Home Vineyard" on Saturday, March 29, from 9:30 am to 11:30 am, and from 12:30 pm to 2:30 pm. at the Yountville Community Center, 6516 Washington Street, Yountville. The morning session will focus on bud break to harvest. Learn the basics of managing a small vineyard including grape physiology, canopy management, vine nutrition, fertilization, irrigation and cover crop. The afternoon session will focus on identifying and managing the most common vineyard pests, especially powdery mildew. To register,call the Parks & Recreation Department at 707-944-8712 or visit its web site.
Napa County Master Gardeners welcome the public to visit their demonstration garden at Connolly Ranch on Thursdays, from 10:00 a.m. until noon, except the last Thursday of the month. Connolly Ranch is at 3141 Browns Valley Road at Thompson Avenue in Napa. Enter on Thompson Avenue.

State and local health officials agree the recent 62-cent increase in federal cigarette taxing will mean fewer smokers in Alabama � and some health changes.
State and local health officials agree the recent 62-cent increase in federal cigarette taxing will mean fewer smokers in Alabama � and some health changes.
State Health Officer Don Williamson said the tax would result in a measurable decline in smoking prevalence for the state.
'The most effective way to reduce tobacco consumption is wi
th tobacco tax increase,' he said. 'I don't think there's any doubt that in doubling the tax in addition to all the oth
er economic hardships facing people today that a large number will have to quit.'
The tax goes into effect Wednesday. Added to Alabama's state tobacco tax, it means each pack of cigarettes will be taxed a total of $1.44. Williamson said the tax not only means more money to fund children's health care, but it also saves state money in other ways.
'It will have long-term effects of reducing health care expenditures because it will cause someone who has been smoking tobacco to quit,' he said.
The decrease in the number of smokers is much needed, Williamson said. Alabama has higher smoking rates as well as a historically lower tobacco tax compared with other states.
In fact, according to a survey done by the National Conference of State Legislatures, Alabama ranks as the ninth-lowest in state cigarette excise taxes.
Alan Blum, director of the University of Alabama's Center for the Study of Tobacco in Society, said a decrease will be seen, but only in the short term.
'[The tax] is not a bad thing, it's just that it's an incomplete approach,' Blum said.
In the past, as cigarette prices have been raised, there has always been a temporary drop in tobacco sales and use, Blum said.
'But I don't think we would still
be talking about raising prices if consumption wasn't at some point leveling off,' he said.
Through the years, tobacco companies have become used to adapting to the dynamics of their market, Blum said.
'You'll start to see all sorts of price discounting. You'll see
two-for-one sales or three-for-one sales. There will be coupons available on the Intern
et,' he said. 'The companies are all very adept at maintaining their users.'
Blum pointed out that Phillip Morris, the largest tobacco manufacturer in the U.S., raised prices on cigarettes just ahead of the increase. He said he believes tobacco companies piggyback on government tax increases to shift the blame of raising prices onto the government.
'In my opinion, it's a way to get the smoking public outraged and say, �Oh, that damn government,' ' Blum said.
Smuggling becomes a problem as cigarette prices rise, Blum said. In New York, which taxes cigarettes at $2.75 per pack, smuggling became a problem as cigarette prices skyrocketed.
'It's happened in New York and I'm not an expert on smuggling or black market cigarettes, but it's a problem that doesn't have to exist,' he said.
Blum said the only effective tax strategy for cracking down on tobacco use would be if 50 state governments collaborated on a single state tobacco tax.
'You're always going to get people importing from other states where taxes are lower and selling cigarettes,' he said.
Mike Muthana, who works at Northport Smoke Shop, pointed to a shelf full of cigarette cartons and said that because of the economy, the store has already taken a hit
. He said over the past three weeks, sales have gotten even lower and that the tax likely would only decrease sales further.
'We've lost a lot of customers,' he said. 'It's too slow right now.'

Uniform Requirements
Given that we respect the uniqueness and individuality of children and we have committed ourselves to their growth in personal responsibility and self-discipline, the following is expected in respect of school uniform and general grooming.
Students are expected to be neatly and tidily dressed and well groomed, this includes care of such things as shoes (cleaned and polished), finger nails, hair combed or brushed and kept at such a length to ensure tidiness. When travelling to and from school and at school, children are required to wear the correct day uniform.
Students are expected to wear the school's formal and sports uniform with pride – they are symbolic of the Plain View Combined School and signify pride in our school, respect for self, and respect for others. The uniform has been chosen by the school community to be practical, attractive and enhance the dignity of each student. Importantly, the correct wearing of the school uniform is a sign that a student is a member of the Plain View Combined School community.
Uniform Days
The school formal uniform is worn every day except for designated days on which lessons are held for Physical Education (PE) or other specified outdoor subjects and on days designated as casual dress days. On PE and sports days, the sports uniform is worn.
The School Uniform is to be worn at all times and a note is required if a student is temporarily unable to wear any part of the uniform. Parents will be advised at the beginning of each school year as to which day(s) your child is to wear their sports uniform.
Hairstyles should comply with standards of neatness, practicality and safety. Hair is to be worn at an appropriate length. Hair extremes in style, cut or colour are not permitted. Hair which extends below the collar, or which affects a child's participation in school activities, should be secured with school coloured ribbons, scrunches or tie-backs (maroon and or white).
- Hairstyles that vary in length are not permitted. Therefore undercuts, tracks, rat's tails, are not permitted. Other similar cuts/styles require the approval of the principal at time of enrollment or before having a style change.
- Hair, when shoulder length or longer, is to be tied back.
- All hair accessories are to be plain in design and either maroon, white, or black.
- Hair is to be neat and tidy.
- If doubt exists with a style of hair, a student or parent should check with the Principal at time of enrollment or before.
Suitability of hairstyle is at the discretion of the Principal. Concerns regarding the acceptability of a particular haircut can be minimized if parents/caregivers seek advice from the school before proceeding.
Leadership badges, wrist watches, religious medals and ear sleepers/studs (worn as a pair, one in each ear lobe) are the only designated items of jewelry to be worn. These may need to be removed for safety at sporting events.
Only the following jewelry may be worn:
- Wrist watch.
- Plain small studs. One earring permitted per ear lobe. No other body piercing permitted.
- Black sports joggers (no colour) or black school shoes.
Socks White
Please ensure your child wears plain white or maroon socks for girls and black socks for boys. Socks should cover the ankle. Students no longer need to wear the 'turn over style' but this style is still considered acceptable part of the uniform.
Special Occasions
On special occasions, students must wear appropriate clothing which is not revealing and doesn't carry inappropriate images or messages. Sun safe practices must be followed.
• Make-up is not permitted to be worn at school.
- Fingernails should be trimmed to fingertip length.
- Coloured fingernail polish is not permitted.
- The Principal retains the right to decide what is acceptable.
Parents' co-operation is essential and sought in this matter. If for some reason a student is unable to wear the correct uniform, a note from the parents to the Class Teacher explaining the situation is required.
The outdoor environment is perfect for children to participate in a variety of activities such as running, climbing and hopping. It also promotes body strength, balance, co-ordination and supports growth in intellectual and social-emotional development. Therefore we recommend that you apply sunscreen prior to their arrival at school and insist that the children have a cap to wear each day.

Of all funds raised by European VC-backed companies in 2018, 93 percent went to all-male founding teams. And almost half of the women in Europe's tech sector said they had experienced discrimination according to Atomico.
The new season will feature Stockholm's leading experts on gender equality in the workplace. The A Woman's Place podcast is part of the gender equality initiative A Woman's Place launched by Invest Stockholm on International Women's Day in March last year. More than 100 of Stockholm's best-known businesses have already joined the initiative, thereby publicly declaring their commitment to improving gender equality.
This season's instructive podcast is a new addition to the A Woman's Place Equality Toolbox, which already includes seminars, articles, gender equality principles and a listing of experts within the field of gender equality.
"According to the Economist, Sweden is the best country in the world for working women, but Atomico's report clearly indicates that further improvements can be made in the fight against gender discrimination. Since we launched A Woman's Place last year, we have offered gender equality seminars on the most pressing topics. Now, we want to make the content from these seminars available for everyone. This is why we asked The Local to package them into an instructive podcast series," says Erik Krüger, Acting CEO of Invest Stockholm.
In the first season of the A Woman's Place podcast, which is available on Spotify, Acast and iTunes, listeners got to meet with inspiring women in Stockholm who have found a city where they can fulfil their professional ambitions, regardless of gender. The new season of the podcast will offer a more educational format.
"The second season of this podcast shows just what makes Stockholm a world leader in gender equality. We meet with some of the city's leading experts in gender equality to discuss topics like bringing a gender equality policy to life, recruiting with greater diversity and how to increase female representation in leadership. It's much more instructive than the first season and proves that Stockholm businesses don't just talk the talk when it comes to gender equality, they walk the walk. And companies around the world can follow in their footsteps," says Sophie Miskiw, commercial editor and podcast host at The Local.
Listen to the first episode of season two of A Woman's Place on Spotify, iTunes, or Acast.
Episode calendar:
10 January: How to increase female representation in leadership teams
22 January: How to bring a gender equality policy to life
5 February: How to measure equality
19 February: How to recruit with greater diversity
5 March: How to develop inclusive and norm-creative external communication

Winnebago County Veterans Dryhootch Outreach Program
Aims: The Dryhootch Outreach Program focused on increasing behavioral activation through social interaction in a population of military veterans with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The goals of the intervention were to reduce the prevalence of anxiety, depression, and PTSD symptoms. Additionally, the project aims to assist veterans to develop and maintain healthy relationships, assimilate with the "civilian" community, and effectively contribute to society.
Methods: Twenty-seven veterans with PTSD attended the twelve-week Dryhootch Outreach program provided by the Winnebago County Veterans Service office and partnering organizations. A pre-post interventional study format was utilized to evaluate the effectiveness of the Dryhootch Outreach Program with an aim of reducing PTSD symptomology among veterans. The DSM-V (PCL-5) PTSD Checklist was the assessment tool used. This twenty question self-reported measure assesses the presence and severity of PTSD symptoms. A paired T-test analysis was conducted to determine if the intervention concluded a statistically significant reduction in PTSD symptoms.
Results: The results indicated there was not a significant reduction in PTSD symptomatology following participation in the Dryhootch Outreach Program (p = 0.21). However, future research may benefit from use of larger sample sizes, longer duration for the intervention, and use of qualitative measures to produce favorable results.
Conclusion: Minor modifications to this intervention with the continued use of behavioral activation, in the form of social interactions, shows promise in reducing PTSD symptoms and promoting reintegration in the community among military veterans.

Yesterday we wrapped up our workshop from last week and did a little brainstorming with the writers. Afterward we talked about the four basic types of writing: expository, descriptive, narrative, and persuasive writing. The first three types are crucial elements of fiction writing, and exposition was a frequent topic in this workshop—some of our stories could have benefited from a little more of it, others from a little less or some fine-tuning of what was there.
It's not always easy to tell when you need more exposition to fuel your story and when your exposition is bogging everything down. There are no clear rules for these things, and tastes differ. Some writers will say it's all crucial information but may have to learn to parcel it out so as not to slow the narrative to a crawl. Others prefer a more subtle touch but risk leaving readers confused and in the dark if they don't give a little information at the right moments. It doesn't matter if your reader is bored by too much information or frustrated with the lack of it—either way, you've lost them. So the quest for balance continues. Some tips from the group:
- Try highlighting your expository passages to get a sense of how much of your story is actually the story. It can be hard to make an objective decision about what's important, but if you end up with a mostly <insert preferred highlighter color here> story, it may not be a very dynamic one. Every word needs to carry a lot of weight, especially in short fiction, so make sure every piece of information you stop to tell is important and enjoyable to read.
- Try moving all of your exposition to a separate document. You can add to it and draw from it as you write to ensure that you have all your facts straight, and keeping it all together will help you spot contradictions, unnecessary repetition, or gaps in your background information. (Sound familiar? We did this with our character studies in December. Not all of the information will be used, but now we have it all on one place to consult as we write and we know more about the characters we chose because we've made space to explore them alongside the writing instead of within it.) Meanwhile your plot is moving along at a steady clip, and you can make a more informed decision as to where it could use a pause to let a little information in.
- Lean on your outline. Knowing exactly when certain things need to happen can help you determine where each bit of background information will be most relevant and most effective. Maybe the reader needs to know Character B's secret before Plot Point 4, but its discovery may be more effective if you let it out as a slow drip of hints or shady behavior rather than leaning on an introduction on Page 12 or a big reveal in Chapter 24; or those three paragraphs detailing the social structure of your space station may not be the most exciting way to begin your novel, but finding a way to weave the information into the narrative over the course of your first couple chapters will provide crucial context for the coup at the end of Act 1.
Expanding on our discussion, here are Chuck Wendig's (caution, strong language ahead) 25 tips on writing effective exposition. Also check out Lavanya Shanbhogue-Arvind's 6 ways to write effective exposition (with examples), which breaks down how some well-known authors tackled the handing out of information.
There will be no meeting next week on account of Spring Break. Before parting ways we each took a writing prompt from Poets & Writers in case we need a little inspiration to keep us writing over the break. We'll meet again on March 18th.

A major housing development in the Scottish town of Kincardine has been completed after a multi-million pound construction project. The development at Devilla in Kincardine, Fife, began nearly eight years ago on the site of former high rise flats.
The latest phase, the third and final aspect of the work, saw the construction of 49 properties in total divided between 2 homes for social rent, 31 homes for Mid-Market Rent and 16 homes for Affordable Sale to Priority Purchasers. The development was supported by Scottish Government grant funding and private finance through the Allia Bond scheme. Work on this final phase began in April 2016 and was finished in December 2017.
The new homes at Devilla were provided by Kingdom Initiatives, a subsidiary of Kingdom Housing Association. Dunfermline-based Campion Homes acted as the main contractor for the project, which was designed by Oliver & Robb Architects, Scott Bennett Associates, both of Dunfermline, and Langmuir & Hay of Glasgow.
Moray Glennie, Senior Development Services Officer for Kingdom Housing Association, said:
"The homes that have been built are brick and render with elements of cladding. There is a nice mixture of materials that work well together. They are designed to meet the silver standard under the building regulations so they are very energy efficient. They have highly efficient boilers, waste water and gas flue heat recovery, high levels of insulation and triple glazed windows. They will be very efficient to run for residents and will meet Secure by Design standards. Ground conditions and the tight nature of the site presented some challenges, but we're very pleased with the finished product.
"It's a very successful project for us in regenerating the area and I think for the people that live there, having gone through a long demolition and build process, it's nice everything is finished. It's made a significant difference to the look and feel of the town and hopefully it's improved it."
Two of the three high rise flats that previously stood on the site were demolished in June 2010 following a council decision originally taken in 2007. The other high rise was brought down in 2013 when enough of the new housing had been constructed to meet demand. The first phase of the redevelopment saw 65 homes constructed for social rent while phase 2 saw the creation of 13 homes for mid-market rent and 6 homes for social rent.
The completion of the Devilla development marks a major step forward for the standard of housing available in Kincardine and will be a benefit to the community for years to come.

The October lows took the Dow total return for the year to near zero after falling below 25,000. The irony is that the Dow and S&P indexes recently hit a high with gains of about 10% for the year, when the Dow topped just below 27,000.
This amounts to a classic bull market head fake: suck your money in and spit it out!

Washington DC, United States, and Nonthaburi, Thailand, March 23, 2015 – Thaicom, one of Asia's leading satellite operators, has been presented with the Corporate Social Responsibility Award at this year's Via Satellite Excellence Awards.
Awarded during SATELLITE 2015, the honor recognizes Thaicom's commitment to sustainable development that benefits both business and society as a whole. This includes a number of projects it has spearheaded across the Asia-Pacific region, positively affecting the communities involved.
One such initiative is the "Thai Kids, Thaicom" project. Thaicom was the first operator to provide distance learning via satellite in Thailand, creating opportunities for underprivileged children and people in remote parts of Thailand.
Today, Thaicom's "Thai Kids, Thaicom" project plays an important part in the education of about 600,000 school children by donating and installing satellite dishes and receivers to 3,000 schools across the country.
Suphajee Suthumpun, Thaicom's CEO, said: "Thaicom has been recognized for one of our most important core values; our responsibility to serve and improve the communities around us. Receiving recognition from a prestigious title like Via Satellite is a great endorsement of everyone's hard work and dedication to such excellent causes."
The award also recognized Thaicom's ability to respond to crises. Thaicom provided assistance after numerous disasters, such as the devastating Japanese earthquake and tsunami in 2011 and both the China and Christchurch earthquakes among others. When Typhoon Haiyan struck the Philippines in November 2013, Thaicom provided satellite communications and instigated a support network among various business partners. It sent experts to install communications equipment for use by victims and officials in the affected areas. THAICOM 4 (IPSTAR), a high throughput satellite, provided critical services such as Internet and telephone communications in the disaster zones. Thaicom continues to commit to being there for any future disasters in its service area.
Via Satellite's annual Excellence Awards ceremony salutes the innovative companies, technologies, campaigns and people who've helped shape the success of the global satellite industry. The Corporate Social Responsibility Award in particular recognizes the company with a proven record in developing and managing the most powerful, impactful social or environmental responsibility program.
Winners of the 2015 Excellence Awards were selected by the Excellence Awards committee, made up of editors and other members of the Satellite Executive of the Year Committee.

A glorious magnolia that I wish was outside my house.
I have to admit that I've been feeling the winter blues a bit lately. Lethargy. Urg. But last week, as I walked home, I caught a sniff of daphne! Daphne! And then I caught sight of the magnolia above AND the jasmine below! These pretty pinky white blooms improved my mood greatly.
Jasmine about to burst …
I can't wait until that first glorious spring weekend when Luke and I can picnic in the park, kick the footy and lounge with our toes in the grass.
Bring on spring!

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner, who lost out to Luka Modric for the UEFA Player of the Year award during the week, drew another blank for a third straight Serie A game on Saturday as he chases his first goal for his new club.
WHile he is still waiting for his first goal, his former Real Madrid teammates have gone on a goal spree and now he has even been outshone by his son, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr, who scored four goals in his debut for Juventus's Under-9 team.
Wearing the number 7 of his famous dad, eight-year-old Ronaldo Jr scored a brace in either half in a 5-1 win against Lucento, watched by Ronaldo's partner Georgina, according to media reports in Italy on Sunday.
Ronaldo has failed to score in his first three competitive games for Juventus, including Saturday's 2-1 win at Parma with Portuguese Prime Minister Antonio Costa in the stands.
Real Madrid are not suffering following the exit of their record all-time goal scorer, earning three wins from three games after thrashing Leganes 4-1 on Saturday thanks to Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale.
"Three more points! Good teamwork," Ronaldo tweeted after Saturday's game in Parma as his team sealed maximum points from three games courtesy of goals by World Cup stars Mario Mandzukic and Blaise Matuidi.

1.Rubies are one of only four precious gemstones (hyperlink to article on precious gemstones), the other three being diamond, emerald and sapphire.
2.Corundum is a mineral that forms rubies and sapphires. If a corundum has a rich red color, it's a ruby. If it's any another color, it's sapphire.
3.Ruby comes from the Latin word "rubens," meaning "red."
4.Corundum scores 9 on the Mohs scale, making ruby and sapphire the second-hardest gemstones after diamond.
5.The richest and most valuable red color of a ruby is "pigeon red" which is deep red with a shade of blue.
6.Inclusions, which are found in most rubies, play a huge factor in determining a real ruby from a synthetic one.
7.Though inclusions in a ruby can sometimes add to the beauty of a stone, if they affect its clarity, they can lead to a huge drop in its price.
8.Most rubies are not sold in their original state, but are treated
9.Red spinels used to be mistaken for rubies. It was only after the 18th century that it was found that the two stones have completely different properties.
10.Garnet is combined with pinkish-red glass to create a stimulated, valuable-looking ruby.
If anything, this provides a glimpse of the gemstone that has captured the minds and eyes for thousands of years. Whether as jewelry or even in literature, rubies have always played a significant role in inspiring artists and gemstone lovers regardless of their background or taste. For that, the ruby has always been considered a precious stone, inside and out.

Statement of Congressman DeSaulnier on Passage of the Highway Trust Fund
"There is no question our nation's infrastructure is in dire need of repair. At the moment, 6,000 construction projects across the country are dependent on money from the Highway Trust Fund, and over 660,000 construction jobs hang in the balance as we head into the critical summer construction season. It is long past time for the Congress to end the practice of short-term patches and chronic underinvestment in our infrastructure. I will continue working with my colleagues on a well-funded, multi-year bill that makes necessary repairs, executes major capital investment projects and creates jobs," said Congressman Mark DeSaulnier.

1. People who pepper their conversation with 'like'.
2. People who ride their bicycles on the pavement.
3. Women who talk in a little girl close to tears voice and expect to get what they want all the time.
That's all I can think of at the moment. I might add more later.

There are many gluten free bread recipes and a few yeast free ones, but gluten & yeast free recipes that you can also make in bread maker are difficult to find… so this blog starts at the point that I finally found a workable base recipe and will hopefully chart its development and improvement over the coming weeks and months.
The method and timings used are for the Panasonic Bread Maker, but I am sure they can be adapted to other makes with a little experimentation…. and if you would like to share your findings here that would be great.
2 Cups Doves Farm Gluten Free Bread Flour
4 teaspoons Gluten Free Baking Powder
2 teaspoons Baking Soda
2 teaspoons Castor Sugar
3/4 teaspoon Salt
about 1 tablespoon Olive oil.
2 medium or large Eggs
about 1 cup Milk - to make up volume.
Combine eggs and milk in a measuring jug, adding the milk to bring the total quantity of both to just over 1 1/3 cups.
Sift flour into the bread maker pan then add other dry ingredients. Now select a program that will mix the ingredients right away (on the Panasonic this is the Gluten Free program). Keep the lid open, and after a minute add the oil, with a spatula carefully help the flour mix with the oil for a couple of minutes, until about 30 sec before the mixer starts to mix fast, now add some of the egg/milk mixture and keep adding in bits until all in, again assisting the mixing with your spatula, ensure that all the flour is mixed in. Mix for two to three minutes until the mixture is smooth, but do not over mix. Now stop the program. I usually remove the mixing blade at this point. Reset the program to Bake only and set for around 70mins. Timings vary depending on how much liquid is in the mix and how much oil.
To give the loaf more taste, I usually add a quarter teaspoon Cinamon and some roasted Sesame Seeds probably a couple of teaspoons. Just put in a dry pot and heat until starting to brown and then crush add to the dry mix. You can also substitute Sesame or other oils for the Olive Oil.
Hope this works for you.

NFL odds players have seen Indianapolis start off the season at 2-0 while the Cardinals have split their first two football gambling matchups. NFL odds makers installed the Colts as 1.5-point favorites with a football gambling total of 48 to open the week.
The Colts are 2-0 straight up and 1-1 against the NFL odds. Last week the Colts beat Miami 27-23 as 3-point Monday Night road favorites. Quarterback Peyton Manning and Pierre Garcon hooked up for a 48 yard touchdown pass with 3:29 remaining in the game to get the cash.
The Colts rank 3rd overall against the NFL odds for passing yards but just 29th overall for rushing yards. It is much the same on the defensive side of the line as Indianapolis ranks 1st overall on defense for passing yards allowed but 30th overall against the NFL odds for rushing yards allowed.
The Arizona Cardinals are 1-1 both straight up and against the NFL odds. Last week the Cardinals scored a 31-17 win at Jacksonville as 3-point road chalks. Quarterback Kurt Warner threw for 243 yards and 2 touchdowns in the win. The Cardinals rank 9th overall in scoring against the NFL odds and 13th in points allowed.
Warner had a tough opener but last week improved his overall quarterback rating to 95.6. Indianapolis has been a strong September team with a mark of 15-7 against the spread while the Cardinals are 7-3 against the board in September action.
The Colts have covered just 2 out of their last 12 games when coming off a point spread cover while Arizona has covered 6 of their last 7 games overall. With Manning going up against Warner fans get one of the better quarterbacking duels available on the NFL odds board.
While there are many skeptics about the ability of both teams to maintain last year's level of play they have each shown resiliency so far in the young season. This looks like an even matchup of top playoff contenders that should go down to the wire. Whoever makes the least mistakes should get the cash.

They are reading books, a photo by yushimoto_02 [christian] on Flickr.
Via Flickr:
This is a shot taken at the rather new library Jacob-und-Wilhelm-Grimm-Zentrum in Berlin.
This shot was taken on a Sunday morning and to my surprise the library was rather busy. So whoever thought that Berlin students have only party in mind, they prove us wrong!
Further info on this architecture:
The Jacob-und-Wilhelm-Grimm-Zentrum is the new central library of Humboldt University, located on famous old boulevard Unter den Linden, near Museum Island and Brandenburg Gate. It's the biggest freehand library in Germany and contains 2 million books, all of them publically accessible and not in closed depots. Berlin-based Swiss architect Max Dudler won the competition, in which 277 architects participated, with a typical 'Berlin style' rationalist building. Behind a strictly orthogonal façade, the visitor encounters the big reading hall, which refers to the terraces of the Hanging Gardens of Semiramis. The space is illuminated by natural roof light and contains green desks and lamps with stone covers for 250 people, all designed by the architect. The atmosphere of the hall breathes a similar spirit as the big library hall by Labrouste in Paris. Most of the 1250 workstations are located directly at the façade with tremendous views over the city.

House prices fell by 2.8% over the the year to February, according to the Halifax – the biggest annual fall since October 2009.
The bank reported a monthly change of -0.9% in house prices and a quarterly change – lenders' preferred measure – of -0.4%, leaving the average house price at £162,657.
But Martin Ellis, housing economist for the Halifax, downplayed the falls saying there had been little change in house prices over the first two months of 2011, with this month's 0.9% fall offset by January's 0.8% gain.
"Overall, we expect a modest 2% decrease in house prices in 2011. Uncertainty over the economic outlook is likely to weigh down on housing demand this year," he said.
