The Stroke Association and a North East hospital trust have launched a pioneering project that could help hundreds of thousands of people in the UK with speech problems.
County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust and the Stroke Association are working with high street shops to help staff understand aphasia.
The Aphasia Aware project, the first of its kind in the UK, is funded by Durham County Council and aims to enable businesses across Durham to be more accessible.
Aphasia, caused by stroke or a brain injury, affects a person's ability to process and use language and affects 250,000 people in the UK.
People with aphasia make mistakes and often find it difficult to understand words and sentences that they hear or read.
Some people with aphasia may also experience slurred speech, sometimes mistaken for drunkenness.
A dozen shops and businesses are taking part in the Aphasia Aware trial in Durham, which involves communication exercises and awareness training based on the real life shopping experiences of people with aphasia.
Louise Hedley, deputy head of operations at the Stroke Association in the North East, said: "Over a third of all stroke survivors develop an impairment of language, affecting their speech and the ability to read or write.
"Given the massive impact on a stroke survivor's life, the new flash card, window decals and logos at shopping tills will help assure people that local businesses understand the issues, barriers and frustrations that can come from having a communication difficulty."
Kathryn Cann from County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust said: "The tools and training help businesses to provide 'communication ramps' that make shops much more accessible to people with aphasia who might otherwise feel too anxious to use them."
The scheme could also help people with speech impairments including dyspraxia, dysarthria and help those facing difficulties due to Huntington's disease, Motor neurone disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and Alzheimer's disease.
Businesses taking part in Durham include Barclays, BHS, Next, St Nicholas Church café and fair trade shop, Boots, Clarkes Shoes, Durham County Council Libraries, Shop Mobility, and Costa Coffee.

''Ask The Inspirer (Restless)''
I am a 27 year old female with a Masters in counseling education. I am restless! My interests include traveling, watching sports, writing, and sleeping. Yes, sleeping!! I am an avid football fan, and I love working with teen-agers. Because I don't like my job and I don't possess as much money as I desire in order to do the things I like, I find myself unmotivated and caught in the monotony of work. Sometimes people ask me what it is I want to do, and my response is "I don't know". To be honest, if I had my way, I'd have enough money and influence that I would not need to work for money, but instead travel, have fun, sleep, and volunteer my time to nonprofit organizations that really serve in the best interest of childen, especially teen-agers. Several people have encouraged me to go back to school and get a Ph. D. I have no desire to add another degree to my resume. Right now, I just want to have fun and enjoy life; I don't see going back to school factoring into that equation. Please help me make sense of what I am feeling.....Thanks
Hi Restless,
Personally, I think you're a quite normal human being. You're simply feeling the tug of a quite healthy realization that there must be more to life than this. I felt the same way for years when I was caught up in the corporate day-to-day. It wasn't until I decided to pursue my passion and walk away from my job that life, with all its ups and downs, started to take on a new thrill.
I'm sure the sleeping is just a reaction to the absence of passion in your life. It's quite tiring to keep up the facade, don't you think? And sleep is a great way to escape from having to face the frustration.
I agree with you that a Ph.D may not be the way to go. The pursuit of higher degrees is often just a way for frightened folks to delay the inevitability of facing the reality of a life of quiet desperation.
When I ask passion seekers "what do you want to do", I'm not asking "Who do you want to work for?" I'm asking "What adds passion to your life? If you didn't have to work for money, what would you rather be doing?" Your letter reveals some clues as to what that might be. You've already said that what moves you to action is to do something in the "best interest of children". I suggest you head in that direction. You've got to start living life from the feeling of the wish fulfilled. (see Life Rhymes Collection)
I followed my passion for music, and was a first a radio dj, then I managed artists, and then started a record label, which eventually led me to start writing books to share my music industry knowledge with others, which has now led me to sharing my insights online and in workshops to help others find their passion. I believe I'm on the right track now, but I wouldn't have gotten here had I not taken that FIRST step in the direction of my passion, and been willing to change course as required. So take a step in the direction of your passion. It may not be the final answer, but it may be your first direction.
Eventually you'll discover things about yourself you never knew. You'll get to know your motivation, your mission, the underlying feeling that you seek to have in your life. You'll be able to harness your talents to devise a life that complements your personality and brings you the passion, and the profit and the success that you seek." Success requires desire, decision and deed. I will say, that this entire process of discovery is what I guide people through in my workshops and in my book, Turn Your Passion Into Profit. Now it may not be that you'll start a business around your passion, though I believe you could easily do so. But the profit in your life lies in who you will become along the way!
so now....
Living a life of false pretense
can make you feel so tired
You've got to find a passion, friend
to make you feel inspired
some people think the answer
lies in higher education
But that may simply be a way
to hide one's true frustration
So ask yourself: With all needs met
what would I rather do?
What value can I add to life
that may help others too?
Don't think in terms of profit first
for money's not the thing
what matters is the journey
and the growth that it will bring
The restlessness you feel
is your desire to be more
Decide then to jump into life
and all it has in store!

California has the most aggressive drivers in the country by far, study finds
You're not alone in shaking your fist and honking — maybe a tad too liberally — at misbehaving drivers on California roads.
The Golden State is home to the most aggressive drivers in the nation, a recent study found.
YourMechanic, a Mountain View car service startup, analyzed nine data points —including driver skill, car theft rates, weather conditions and road congestion — for every state in the U.S. It then ranked the states numerically in a handful of categories.
OPINION: Forget limiting Uber and Lyft vehicles to reduce congestion
California took the first spot only in the aggressive drivers category, with an "aggressive driving event" — i.e. speeding, brake checking, tailgating — occurring every 6.6 minutes, according to the report. Connecticut follows behind California with a rate of 8.2 minutes.
Aggressive driving is a criminal offense in California. The state penal code considers reckless driving — the "willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property" — a misdemeanor offense and convicted drivers can face up to 90 days imprisonment and a fine of up to $1,000.
California came in fourth for most dangerous state to drive in overall, behind New Mexico, Louisiana and Oklahoma. It also has some of the most congested roads in the nation (2nd on the ranking) and the country's fourth highest car theft rate, at 425.9 thefts per 100,000 residents.
ALSO READ: Do lane splitting motorcyclists make California roads safer?
In a 2016 study by AAA, 78 percent of U.S. drivers surveyed reported having engaged in aggressive behavior.
"AAA is actually concerned that this problem is worse than recent findings, as drivers tend to under-report engaging in aggressive driving behaviors due to their negative social connotation," explained AAA spokesperson Michael Blasky. He cited figures from the National Highway Transportation and Safety Administration that show there was a 600-percent increase in deadly road rage crimes between 2006 and 2016.
Blasky said he would be "hard-pressed" to say California drivers are more aggressive than those in other states, but there are several factors that could contribute to California driver's aggression.
"We obviously have more drivers in California than most states, and our roadways are more congested due to the booming economy on the West Coast," he said.
"Low unemployment and higher wages means that more people are driving to work, and driving longer distances, which could be a factor in increased stress and more tension between drivers. Despite BART and other transit options, almost 90% of commuters still drive alone to work in the Bay Area."
The Department of Motor Vehicles recommends drivers experiencing heightened emotions on the road — otherwise known as "road rage" — listen to soothing music, maintain ample space between other cars and refrain from making prolonged eye contact or obscene gestures at people on the road.
If you've upset another driver, the DMV says to show remorse by waving at the driver, mouthing that you're sorry and allowing them room to pass. Those who believe they are in imminent danger should call police.

Ex-Pentagon Analyst: US Exit From INF Treaty Could Boost US Nuke Arms Industry
Sputnik – 23.10.2018
WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump's decision to scrap the 1987 Intermediate Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty will be welcomed by the US nuclear weapons industry and major defense contractors, veteran Pentagon analyst Chuck Spinney told Sputnik on Monday.
"The trashing of the INF treaty is simply another step down a slippery slope that is being greased by the nuclear arms contractors," said Spinney, a senior Department of Defense analyst for more than 30 years.
Trump said on Saturday that his administration was preparing to withdraw from the INF.
Speaking to reporters on the White House lawn on Monday, the US president also claimed that Russia had not done enough to adhere to the treaty. However, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov denied on Monday that Moscow was in violation of the landmark agreement.
Spinney said Trump's decision to scrap the INF was an anticipated and expected consequent of his predecessor, President Barack Obama's approval of a colossal $1.5 trillion US nuclear modernization and expansion weapons program over the next 30 years.
"In my view, this evolution was almost inevitable. We unilaterally pulled out of the missile defense treaty and effectively launched a new arms race when Obama caved into the nuclear weapons industry and launched his across the board nuclear modernization plan," he said.
Spinney recalled that Obama had been praised for negotiating the new Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (New START) and had been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize after only one year in office, but that his huge nuclear weapons program contradicted those claimed achievements.
"Trump's strategy and nuclear posture review essentially sealed Obama's actions," he said.
Trump has also refused to acknowledge Russia's legitimate concern about the potential offensive capabilities of the Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) systems that the United States has deployed in Poland and was also setting up in Romania, Spinney pointed out.
"Russians claim the BMD capabilities placed in Eastern Europe could be used to offensive purposes and their 'new' missile may well be a response to that," he said.
Terminating the INF treaty would be a heavy blow for the entire international legal system of nonproliferation and arms control, the Russian Security Council said on Monday.
The INF was signed in 1987 and was pivotal in eliminating thousands of missiles from the American and Russian arsenals. Ex-Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev, who signed the treaty along with then-US leader Ronald Reagan called Trump's planned withdrawal from it very irresponsible.

hi dear ones,
Be cautios, you are being watched by them, they will gather around you, theirs is very lesser demand !!!
The basic amenities –Food, Shelter, education, unemployment, health and judicial services to the people in the country have been paralyzed by the political leadership.
And this may be the one of the problems behind increasing number of beggars.
Associated with the problems of poverty and unemployment is the problem of beggary which is a social as well as Economic problem of great magnitude and grave concern in INDIA. Begging is a problem for all classes as well as for the masses!!!
It is common to find beggars at rubbish dumps, road sides, temples, traffic lights and under flyovers. As well as important monuments, railway stations, religious and spiritual sites, and shopping places.
The majority of beggars see it as a profitable and effortless and viable profession. Begging has been an accepted way of life in India. Giving alms (Daan) to the needy was built into the social fabric of India and is thought as a good cause/Deed (Punya) (since feeding/helping the poor & needy makes good way for heaven).
We need an effective plan to address this socio-economic issue and curb it (if not completely eliminate it). India as a nation needs to think for its begging population. With the nation aspiring to become world leader in every field; socio-economic measures are needed to curb the begging problem in India.

VKernel, the award-winning provider of enterprise-class performance, configuration and capacity management products for virtualized data centers and cloud environments, announced today the addition of self-learning analytics to its existing analytics feature set. This new capability allows virtual administrators to deploy dynamic thresholding to detect even more existing and emerging VM performance issues such as abnormalities in CPU, memory and storage utilization.
Dynamic Thresholding Detects "Abnormal" Resource Utilization and Patterns
Dynamic thresholding makes use of self-learning analytics to understand the "normal" range of VM resource usage in a virtual environment. Because every environment can be vastly different, these analytics observe consumption of resources over a period of time to understand usage. For example, if a VM displays high CPU utilization on the same day each week, these analytics "learn" that this is a usual occurrence and will consider this to be the baseline utilization, dynamically setting warning thresholds differently for this day. As a result, this VM would be considered to have a high CPU utilization performance issue only if the CPU utilization is vastly higher than usual for this specific day of the week. Through this method, "abnormal" behavior for resource usage is dynamically determined and false positives can be removed for behavior that is shown to be typical.
While dynamic thresholding based on self-learning analytics is valuable for analyzing virtual environments, multiple analytic types are required to detect all sorts of virtualization issues. Because dynamically set thresholds are specific to each VM's observed resource usage, issues that exist while a baseline is being established will not be considered problematic. Additionally, many issues cannot be detected with dynamic thresholds, such as memory swapping, accelerated storage utilization and high disk latency as they require metric-specific static threshold alarms. Virtualization management systems which rely solely on dynamic thresholding will be unable to detect these and many other kinds of issues. VKernel's approach is to build and deploy the right types of algorithms to maximize accurate analysis of virtual environments.
With vOPS Server Enterprise 6.6.2's new feature set, dynamic thresholding adds precision in determining which resource usage patterns are normal or abnormal, in VM CPU, memory, storage and disk I/O utilization. This is in addition to other analytic types existing within the vOPS product to detect VM performance issues.
"Dynamic thresholding enabled through self-learning analytics are unique in its ability to detect abnormalities in resource utilization specific to the virtual environment," says Bernd Harzog, The Virtualization Practice. "The alarms can only help system administrators be more proactive in avoiding performance issues. They are now alerted when an environment is beginning to show abnormalities in resource usage that could potentially turn into performance issues and result in environment downtime."
Dynamic Thresholding Bolsters Multi-Analytic Approach in vOPS Server Product Line
vOPS Server Enterprise 6.6.2 features dynamic thresholding for VM resource utilization by enabling the IntelliProfile self-learning analytics engine. IntelliProfile is a mature technology featured in other Quest products to detect abnormalities in usage in applications such as Microsoft SQL Server. Dynamic thresholding will complement existing analytic types within vOPS Server Enterprise such as threshold-based alarms and accelerated growth alarms to expand the total number of issue types that can be detected by the vOPS Server product line.
"We are pleased to integrate dynamic thresholding in vOPS Server Enterprise based on the same IntelliProfile engine that has been used and improved over many years in other Quest monitoring solutions," says Mattias Sundling, Product Evangelist and vExpert, VKernel. "Adding this capability to the multiple issue detection analytic methods that currently exist within the vOPS Server product line will allow our customers to get the most sensitive VM performance issue detection system available on the market."
vOPS Server Enterprise 6.6.2 featuring dynamic thresholding is available now for a 45-day trial from http://www.vkernel.com. Pricing starts at $799 per socket.

Hello Readers!
Since the topic of Beauty encompasses a wide range of topics, I decided it would be best to break this specific gift giving guide into two posts. As you already know, I posted part one a few days ago (if you haven't read it, you can do so here).
Part one focused one gifts for the novice makeup lover. This post – part two – will focus on gifts for the makeup maven.
Buying any makeup for any makeup maven is a difficult task. Why? Mostly because they have their look down, they already have (several) favorite brands. And not too mention they probably have almost every makeup product they could ever need or want for that matter.
Because of this, you as the gift giver may want to do some snooping — you may want to dig around to see what they have, what they don't have, what they want, and even what they do not want. If you're not comfortable snooping, seriously, just flat out ask.
One of the best gifts I think to give to any makeup maven is a gift card to either Sephora or Ulta. Both of these stores carry an array of beauty products, and offers shoppers a ton of gift sets at this time of year.
If you don't want to give a gift card, but you're not one hundred percent sure what to get the makeup maven in your life, I would suggest a cosmetic bag and/or case. These are some of my faves this year:
If the cases aren't enough, I would suggest filling the case with some basic tools. A makeup maven can never have enough tools! But what tools would/should you include? I would suggest:
- Swissco Complete Precision Blending Sponge
- Glitter Happy Brush Set – OR – Real Techniques Collector's Edition Delux Gift Set
- Solid Brush Cleaner – OR – Professional Brush/Sponge Cleaner
I'm going to go out on a limb here, but if the person you are buying for is a makeup lover than they will appreciate a great palette (or two). There are several palettes on the market that I think would make a great gift for anyone.
- Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Eye Shadow Palette – includes 15 shades of eye shadow created by Gwen Stefani herself. (This one is even on my Christmas list!)
- Kat Von D Monarch Eye & Lip Set – Includes warm and neutral toned eye shadows (but with an edge because it's Kat Von D) accompanied by a few extra products like a lip stick, eye liner, and mascara.
- Urban Decay Electric Pressed Pigment Palette – if the person you are buying for likes big, bold colors than this is the palette for them!
- Rose Gold Natural Eye Shadow Palette – this palette includes 12 eye shadows from matte to glitter finishes. I actually own this palette and it's honestly one of my go-to palettes.
- Smashbox Art. Love. Color Sets – I just recently discovered this (I haven't used them, but have seen them) and I can tell you I personally want this set! This set features both eye shadows and blushes, and when combined the makeup maven could create many dazzling looks.
There are a ton of other options out there … seriously this post could go on and on. But I figured I would just give a sampling of the gifts that are out on the market this holiday season. Happy shopping!
(Please not that I am not getting paid or sponsored by any of the brands mentioned above. I'm simply sharing my thoughts/feelings on some of the products that I use on a daily basis).

first published on August 21, 2018 by Will
Afghan President Ashraf Ghani declared a three-month ceasefire with the Taliban, beginning this Sunday at the start of the Eid al-Adha Muslim holiday. However, the Taliban never had any intention of taking part in the pause of hostilities. To make that extremely clear to the world, they kidnapped 170 bus passengers and an additional 20 security personnel in Kunduz just one day after the hollow cease-fire was declared.
In contrast to the NATO Resolute Support press releases that continue to report that 'everything is fine' in Afghanistan, the security situation is anything but. The Taliban continue to wage concurrent successful multi front offensives against Afghan security forces across the nation.
That isn't to say that the Taliban aren't taking costly losses in the fighting. At least 102 militants including Mawlavi Matiullah, the military commission chief of the northern Taliban, have been killed in recent airstrikes in the northern Faryab province. However, those numbers were reported by the Afghan Army and are likely heavily inflated.
Additionally, the Faryab strikes came too late, well after the Taliban surrounded and laid siege to an Afghan Commando outpost for an entire week, forcing the commandos, who were out of ammo and water, to flee or surrender because no support came from the government.
So while the Taliban are eventually being beaten back on these fronts, it's important to understand that they are only being repelled after American forces are called in to augment the ANA and develop targets for American strike aircraft, which just further solidifies the point that after nearly two decades of assistance and support, the Afghan National Army cannot stand on its own.
It is easy to point out that Afghan Forces, with exceptions, are simply untrainable and wholly incompetent. That is a solid truth regardless of how many NATO spokesmen parrot "great improvement" and "self sufficient" talking points. The further damning reality is that Afghanistan, in general, is a logistical nightmare that challenged even our own multinational combined force of the most technologically advanced militaries in the world. We are now imposing the same near-impossible expectations on a third-world army that even we couldn't fulfill during the height of the surge in Afghanistan.
This current call for a ceasefire is a desperate attempt by the government to allow themselves breathing room to consolidate and reorganize. Asking for three months is no different than asking for seven, considering that the ceasefire would expire during the winter lull in which massive military operations are nearly impossible to facilitate (for both sides) due to the inhospitable combination of climate and terrain. It appears that the Afghan government is crossing its fingers in hopes that it can survive until winter. A ceasefire would not benefit the Taliban in any way. The Taliban have the momentum and they know it.
The Resolute Support command seems to be putting all of its chips into 'bringing the Taliban to the bargaining table' and patting themselves on the back for whatever pointless and hollow agreements are made, followed by a photo op with signatures and handshakes. The plan appears to be to hand Afghanistan's people over to the Taliban's strict enforcement of Sharia Law while telling Western mainstream media: "Mission Complete."

The turn of the calendar brought with it cool breezes coming through the window as I washed the breakfast dishes. I've been waiting for this day all summer long. This cool down is temporary as heat returns on Labor day. However, the calendar now shows the month of September so we are close to that which my heart longs.
I adore the Autumn months, so much that to me they are the true beginning of the Holiday season. Especially those weeks when there is color everywhere I look and the forest shows off all her finery. There is a great deal to look forward to in the coming weeks, once summer has let go of its' warmth for this year.
There is something about September that brings my thoughts back to home. One may travel in the heat of the summer, to the lake or the sea or even perhaps a river flowing with the promise of tonight's meal. It seems that just about everyone I know goes somewhere in the summer months.
Not so much once school begins, unless it is going somewhere to view the "color". The cooler weather returns my thoughts to my kitchen as once again soup simmers on the stove and bread is baked in the oven and a throw is needed over my shoulders as I open the pages of a novel.
My preferred rereading changes with the cooler weather as I reach for a couple Gladys Taber books to leave on the coffee table and perhaps a Mitford novel that allows me to travel to a place I'd love to live with people who would make the most delightful... albeit interesting... neighbors.
It is a little early to purchase a rust colored mum for the porch if I want it to last through true Autumn. While the calendar says September, the weather forecast brings us heat indexes well into the 90s. There will be time for mums and pumpkins and Indian corn and the taking down of the box labeled "Fall Decorations" from the shelf where it has resided since tucking it away when the Christmas boxes came out.
This time of year held a bit of melancholia for my mother and the more years I have in the rear view window, the more my mother's melancholia slips in to my thinking. I'm not sure why... perhaps it is the end of the season of growth... perhaps it is the falling leaves in the forest... we who have lived through many an end of summer know winter is on the way.
Even given that, we are on the cusp of my very favorite season. One that brings such delights as pumpkin spice lattes (no, I haven't had one, yet) and the return of cinnamon and nutmeg and pumpkin and hot apple cider and apples and acorn squash and butternut squash and the other flavors best known during this time of the year.
The beginning of September always seems to cause me to come home in my thoughts. It reminds me of when I had a laptop computer and the Home key was located in a place on the keyboard where I would occasionally hit it by accident. Suddenly my typing was back at the beginning of whatever was being written. I had hit Home quite by accident.
September is the calendar equivalent of the Home key in the days and weeks and months of my life. Perhaps it is simply that the school year would always begin the day after Labor Day. In my teen years, I couldn't wait until the September Back to School issue of Seventeen magazine could be found on the newsstands. September was when we would get new clothes and new shoes and a brand new box of Crayola crayons.
These are but a few of many embedded memories that bring a sense of... coming back and coming home... thoughts of beginnings.
I may this week... regardless of what the thermostat says outside... pull a Taber book off the shelf, fill one of my red plaid Thermos containers with hot apple cider, play the George Strait CD in the van (for Country was the genre of music played at home), and find a cool spot under a tree to read and ponder and remember.
Remembering only the good stuff of home, family, dear friends, and how far God has brought us in His mercy and His grace. Until that day He calls me... Home. Maranatha.

Ayutthaya is a city in Thailand, about 80km north of Bangkok. It was the capital of the Kingdom of Siam, and a prosperous international trading port, from 1350 until it was razed by the Burmese in 1767. The ruins of the old city now form the Ayutthaya Historical Park, an archaeological site that contains palaces, Buddhist temples, monasteries and statues. The park is on an island between 3 rivers.
At the center of Ayutthaya City is the Ayutthaya Historical Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the most visited site in the area. Here, the four spectacular temples of the early Ayutthaya period (1350–1529) stand amongst a dense canopy of ancient trees. West of here is the site of the Royal Palace and Royal Chapel (Wat Phra Si Sanphet) – the political and spiritual heart of the lost kingdom.
Nowadays, all that is left to show for Ayutthaya's significance are a series of ruined temples and other important stone-built buildings in varying conditions. Most of the city having been made of wood wasn't the long-term survival plan they may have thought. Though river barges still navigate its waterways their cargo is more likely to be camera happy visitors than exotic spices or royal personas.

It's been lovely to read how other people have discovered how 2019 has effected them and reading their aspirations and hopes for 2020. I hadn't intended on writing about my year but felt, considering I haven't written a blog for a while, that I would be a nice reflection for me.
I must say for me, 2019 has been one of the better years for a while. It has been the year where I become a professional, discovered I can achieve higher than I ever contemplated, explored rural Wales and moved to a nicer location and finally, started to feel more in control than I have been in previous years. I've even gone back to being vegetarian (looking towards Veganism) and cooking a lot more.
Along the way, my self worth and value has increased, as well as, being more assertive than before, which has raised my confidence and belief in myself and I'm so pleased with this. Feeling more content with life and especially pleased at how our relationship has developed and grown is wonderful as we enter 2020.
2020 does look like it will be an interesting year since much of my work timetable has been fixed already. There will be a lot of juggling and movement around the South East/Wales/Lake District; hopefully, I will find the time to fit in a holiday overseas.
I don't ask for much from 2020; I shall just continue to try and sort my finances – which, currently, looks very promising. I hope to continue improving and learning photography skills – hopefully, changing this website will continue to encourage that (still need to edited the pages and add content)- alongside this hobby, I will focus a lot more with the MA and hopefully pass the modules. At this point in time, nothing is certain, and it all looks optimistic.
So, I wish best of luck in 2020 to anyone reading this. I hope it'll bring you all that you want and need for a happy and content life.

St. Louis has an Earth Day festival on the Sunday after the official date. It's so refreshing to see that there are actual strange, free-thinking people in this often too-vanilla town. There were bio-roofers, wild bird rehabbers, tissue-cleansers, soul travelers, organic clothiers, faeries, microbrewers, vegetarians, centenarians, egalitarians and a battalion of chiropractors.
Early in the day I met Uriel Starbuck, who styles himself a creativity coach. His resume appears impeccable. Got a lot of good shots, which will appear over the coming days.

What is M+Power?
People can serve between 3 months and 2 years and help in a real need, and than return to their home country to share about what God is and has been doing cross culturally. We are God's ambassadors!
We believe that God calls His people into cross-cultural mission from every nation, culture and language, from every age group, every economic status, and every educational level. Jesus says in John 20: 21
'As the Father has sent me, even so I'm sending you'
The model of missions that we see in the life of Jesus, is Jesus coming down from heaven to us, in order to show who God is. We are God's ambassadors!
M+Power is a pathway that the Eurasia Region created for Nazarene believers from the nations and cultures of Eurasia to answer God's calling. Through M+Power, people sensing a call to service may seek training, assessment and possible deployment to another part of their culture or to another nation.
We expect people to serve between 3 months and 2 years, and then return to their home culture to tell stories of how God is and has been working.
Service locations and opportunities are varied in Europe and Asia, and may include coffeehouse ministry, youth/children's ministries, finance work, pioneering, teaching English or education.
How does M+Power work?
Your responsibility
First, the candidate attends a Eurasia Mission Orientation training event. There he or she will be connected with a mentor, who will be there to support the candidate in the process of moving forward.
If, after participating in a training event, someone would like to serve cross culturally, next he or she will apply on the website and provide references.
Candidates also must read the book, Cross-Cultural Servanthood, by Duane Elmer.
M+Power volunteer missionaries raise their own financial and prayer support. This includes funds to cover travel costs, food, and possibly housing. We will try to work with similar economies, so that it will be possible for many people to go through the experience of serving cross culturally.
Once at their place of assignment, M+Power volunteers are expected to respectfully follow the direction of local and national leadership of the receiving culture, learn the local language, make efforts to adapt to and understand the new culture, communicate regularly and honestly with the assigned mentor and coach, as well as continue fundraising or prayer support as needed.
The Church of the Nazarene Eurasia's responsibility
Eurasia Region's M+Power team will provide three people who are crucial in the process of becoming a missionary:
Upcoming events
M+Power values
Why would a local church or a district send a few of its best leaders to another area for a period of time?
Why would someone invest time, money, and energy in becoming a volunteer?
Why evangelize in another area, when there are so few Christians where we live?
The answer is simple: Love.
For God so loved the world, that He gave his only Son (John 3:16)
As recipients of this gracious and sacrificial love, we are compelled to send out emissaries to those who still do not know God's grace and love; and we are compelled to leave our homes, our families and loved ones, our jobs, our cultural advantages, the familiarity of customs and language, to be God's emissaries to people in other areas and cultures who have not heard about Jesus.
God's call to send and to go is not only for those in the West, or for affluent nations, churches or people, nor is it restricted to people of certain ethnicities. God calls the church everywhere to send people from every race, gender, age, economic class and educational status.
Sometimes, however, at first glance the path seems easier and straighter for those with more affluence. M+Power was designed to give equal opportunity for churches to send and for people to go, whenever and wherever God is calling.
Sometimes, churches in cultures that have received missionaries for many generations may not be aware that they are called by God to be sending churches, too.
Local churches display spiritual maturity when they recognize God calls them to send workers into the harvest, especially to other nations and people groups.
Through M+Power, we challenge every church to examine how God is calling them as a local congregation to send, and whether there is anyone within their congregation or district whom God is calling to go.
Our God is a multicultural God. Every culture reflects something unique of what it means to be the bride of Christ. So it is together with all the saints that we can begin to understand:
…how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that we may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. (Ephesians 4: 18b-19)

Greece and the economic crisis 2015
NEWS ARCHIVE - May 6 - May 11
May 11, 2015Greece seeks Eurozone recognition of economic progress - BBC
"Greece's left-wing government has said it will not break anti-austerity electoral promises, something that has put the country at odds with European creditors.
Greece has until June to agree a new reform deal with its creditors.
Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras is reported to have told his cabinet that Europe needs to acknowledge the economic reforms that Greece has made.
"We want a clear confirmation of the progress that has been made," he told a meeting on Sunday, Greece's Ana state news agency reported. Eurozone ministers are not hopeful of a deal being struck.
"We have made progress, but we are not very close to an agreement," Eurogroup chair Jeroen Dijsselbloem told the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera.
"It will surely not be reached at the Eurogroup meeting on Monday," he said."
The gov't had better act fast and deliver the kind of structural reforms that will make the difference - eKathimerini
"...the Eurogroup is on Monday likely to endorse the progress made in the negotiations between Greece and its creditors in the last couple of weeks but the conclusion of the last review of the second bailout program is not in sight yet. History teaches the two parties may be able to agree on measures to fill the estimated fiscal gap but it will be harder to agree on other structural reforms. To bridge the gaps, it requires mutual concessions and political statesmanship, especially in Greece.
...Undoubtedly, more progress has to be made in the days ahead and in our opinion this is more likely on the fiscal side rather than pensions or labor reforms. Greek governments find it politically easier to raise tax revenues to meet primary budget goals. Spending cuts is a tougher cookie with the public investment budget and procurements being among the first to be targeted. This is more so with the leftist-led administration, which wants to use the tax system to redistribute income as well. Therefore, it is not surprising tax hikes on luxury items, the overhaul of the value-added tax with the introduction of a unified VAT rate, a windfall tax on people earning more than 50,000 euros per year and a tax on the 500 wealthiest families are on the table."
Judgement day at the eurogroup meeting - ethnos.gr
"Decisive developments are expected to be the current meeting of the Eurogroup. At the moment the government is seeking progress though partners harden their stance in the negotiations.
'We want to have a clear recognition of the progress achieved,' Prime Minister Tsipras has stressed at the marathon meeting of the government council."

IMF Works With Bank Regulators on Contingency Plans for Greek Default - WSJ
"The International Monetary Fund is working with national authorities in southeastern Europe on contingency plans for a Greek default, a senior fund official said—a rare public admission that regulators are preparing for the potential failure to agree on continued aid for Athens.
..."We are in a dialogue with all of these countries," said Jörg Decressin, deputy director of the IMF's Europe department. "We are talking with them about the contingency plans they have, what measures they can take."
..."It would be foolish for anyone in the policy world not to be worried at this stage," Mr. Decressin said."
IMF and ECB Loom Large Over Greece's Debt Talks - NY Times
"...The influence of the E.C.B. and the I.M.F. will be felt behind the scenes on Monday, when finance ministers from Greece and other European nations meet in their latest effort to break an impasse that is paralyzing the Greek economy and frightening global markets.
...If there are no concrete signs of progress in the talks Monday, a majority of the central bank's governing council would be in favor of placing additional restrictions on lending to Greek banks as early as this week, people briefed on the council's discussions said.
"Their interest is to get their money back," said Zsolt Darvas, a senior fellow at Bruegel, a research organization in Brussels.
Greek officials, meanwhile, have contemplated steps that would test the institutions' hard-line stance."
How the ECB became the real villain of Greece's debt drama - UK Telegraph
"In the last three months, the Frankfurt-based ECB has become the target of vociferous criticism for its handling of the Greek crisis.
Weeks before the confetti attack, Mr Draghi was heckled by a Greek journalist at a press conference in Nicosia. Before that, he was the subject of a tirade from a Greek MEP during an address at the European Parliament.
On both occasions, the Italian was shouted down as he was forced to defend his institution's role in Greece's debt drama.
...Not only has the ECB rebuffed requests for temporary financial relief, but its disciplinarian stance has led to accusations that it is acting 'ultra vires' - taking politically motivated action outside of its legal remit to ensure financial stability in the eurozone."
Greece's plight at odds with public's lack of concern as default deferred - UK Guardian
"The talks between Alexis Tsipras's government and its creditors have dragged on for so long that it has become hard to believe there will ever be a decisive make-or-break juncture. And never has that been harder to believe than now, with the arrival of summer and the entrancing distractions it brings to a country like Greece.
There is a striking disconnection in Athens between the blithe lack of concern that the government evinces, and which it has successfully communicated to much of the public, and the objective seriousness of Greece's plight.
This week Greece and the eurozone face a week of fresh nail-biting uncertainty as the single currency area's finance ministers prepare to report on progress towards an agreement with Tsipras's government. On Tuesday Greece is due to repay €770m (£560m) to the IMF.
...The evidence of real and painful economic hardship is subtle in Athens. But it is there.
As it passes through Dafni, a suburb of the capital, the road to Vouliagmeni becomes a shopping area. About four out of every five shops has closed.
"The owners of the shops think the reason they have no customers is because of a mall that opened up nearby," said Nikos Servios, from the nearby Neos Kosmos district, who went to buy a pair of shoes. "But I've been to the other mall and most of the people go there to window-shop, watch a movie – it has a cinema – or drink a coffee. Nobody is buying."

Merkel Pressed to Give Up on Greece as Germans Urge Strong Euro - Bloomberg
"German Chancellor Angela Merkel is coming under growing pressure from within the ranks of her own party bloc to give up on Greece for the sake of the euro.
...With European finance ministers due to resume talks on Greece on Monday, hardening sentiment in Germany risks sending mixed signals to investors as Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras's government attempts to reach a deal with creditors.
...As talks between Greece and its creditors drag on, the view that the euro would be stronger without Greece is gaining ground in Merkel's Christian Democratic-led bloc, according to two lawmakers. They asked not to be identified because they don't want to publicly challenge Merkel.
"Having its own currency could help Greece get back on its feet," Hans-Peter Friedrich, one of 29 lawmakers from Merkel's bloc who voted against extending Greece's aid program, said in an e-mailed answer to questions."
Greece hits crunch time over €750m repayment to IMF - FInancial Times
"Cancel the summer holidays. Tuesday's €750m repayment is the biggest that the Greek government has had to make to the IMF so far this year. But it is really just the start of a difficult few months that make it likely that Greece and its creditors are going to have a long hot summer high on brinkmanship and stress, and short on fun.
The immediate discussions are over releasing another €7.2bn from a European-led bailout. Greece owes more than that to the IMF and other creditors in the months to come.
In June alone, Greece owes another €1.5bn to the IMF and it is due to repay the same sum across four payments in September. Meanwhile, it owes some €3bn to the European Central Bank in July and August.
Given its current cash struggles it is unlikely to make all of those payments without receiving at least some of the bailout funds."
May 9, 2015Samaras: There has to be a deal with Greece's lenders - ANA-MPA
"I was the one who, throughout this period, insisted intensely there should be a solution. There should be a deal because it cannot continue this way," New Democracy leader told Focus FM, adding he's worried the government will launch a tax raid because SYRIZA was unprepared to govern.
"The economy has really reached the limits. Nothing works. Right now there's a complete economic immobility, which is also powered by a very negative psychology. This combination is destructive for the Greek economy," Samaras was quoted as saying."
May 8, 2015US wants Greece to consider more than Russian pipeline - Foxnews
"Greece's left-wing government has expressed interest in a Moscow-backed pipeline project dubbed Turkish Stream that would bring natural gas across the Black Sea to Turkey and from there to Europe, potentially through Greece. The U.S. has been encouraging the Trans-Adriatic Pipeline, which will take Azeri gas from the Caspian Sea to Italy.
Hochstein stressed that while Russia was a major gas supplier for Europe, it was important for Greece and Europe to ensure diverse suppliers.
"Diversification is ultimately the best way to create security of supply," he said. "And that means that you should be allowed to bring in other sources of gas that are non-Russian, just to have competition."
That would also reduce the chances of energy being used for political leverage, he said."
Eurozone officials say they're baffled by Varoufakis documents - WSJ
"Economic plans and growth estimates distributed by Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis to some of his eurozone counterparts have baffled officials involved in the talks over its international bailout.
Officials say that the files differ greatly from what has been discussed at the technical level in Brussels in recent days and underline how Mr. Varoufakis continues to complicate progress toward a financing deal.
...While some of the outlined measures are the same as those agreed to in the negotiations—such as the creation of an independent tax commissioner—the paper differs in other areas.
One significant difference is the creation of a so-called bad bank that would house and wind down Greek lenders' bad loans. "Conveniently, the financing of the bad bank is not treated," an EU official said."
A bitcoin-like solution for Greece - CNBC
"This past Wednesday, Greece was able to make a 200-million euro (US$224 million) interest payment to the International Monetary Fund, but only by requiring all state enterprises — including schools and pension funds — to transfer reserves to an account at the Greek central bank. Next Tuesday, Greece faces an even bigger payment of 750 million euros to the IMF. As of now, it is unclear how Greece will manage to make this payment.
...The European Central Bank is apparently working on an IOU-based secondary currency similar to the IOU's used by California in 2009, according to a Reuters report last month. Interestingly, Yanis Varoufakis (Greece's new Finance Minister) wrote a blog post in February proposing a similar currency, which he dubbed Future Tax Coin (FT-Coin).
In both of these cases, the secondary currency would borrow tax revenue from the future to pay for obligations today. Furthermore, the secondary currency would be tantamount to a T-bill that was backed by the full faith and credit of the Greek government. As a trust-based financial instrument, acceptance would be a function of the confidence in the Greek government to collect future taxes."
Greece bows to pressure from UEFA, FIFA as violence bill passes - Yahoo Sports
"The Greek parliament on Thursday voted into law a controversial bill to curb violence in domestic sports after bowing to pressure for changes from football governing bodies UEFA and FIFA.
...European governing body UEFA together with world body FIFA had warned Greece that amendments focusing on the right of the government to intervene with the affairs of the country's football federation would not be tolerated and would lead to the federation's suspension."
Varoufakis Says Greece Ready to Take EU Impasse Down to the Wire - Yahoo Finance
"Greece has less than a week to prove to the European Central Bank that it's serious about reaching an agreement with international lenders. Failure to make progress in bailout talks or repay about 745 million euros ($839 million) owed to the International Monetary Fund on May 12 may prompt the imposition of tighter liquidity rules on its banks.
...Varoufakis said that while there's convergence between the two sides, the Greek government won't bow to creditors' demands for more austerity."

Golden Dawn leaders' trial adjourned until next week - UK Guardian
"The trial of dozens of members of Europe's most violent neo-Nazi political party, the far-right Golden Dawn in Greece, has been adjourned until next week after resuming briefly in the country's largest prison.
Three years to the day after entering the Greek parliament, the entire leadership of Golden Dawn was among the 69 defendants in the dock for a trial in which they are accused of masquerading as a political force to pursue a criminal agenda of murder and assault.
...Despite the allegations, the neo-fascists emerged as Greece's third-biggest political force – behind the radical left party, Syriza, of the prime minister, Alexis Tsipras, and the centre-right New Democracy party – when elections were held in January. Seventeen MPs in total represent Golden Dawn."

Instead, the council was planning to closely watch the outcome of a meeting in Brussels on Monday between Greece and the Eurogroup of finance ministers from eurozone countries.
Policy makers there will decide whether Greece has come up with an adequate set of economic overhauls required before they will release more financial aid to the country, which is quickly running out of money."

Greece blames EU-IMF row for blocking deal - Yahoo
"Greece and its creditors on Tuesday ruled out any bailout deal to avoid bankruptcy at a make-or-break meeting next week, as the IMF said Athens may need debt relief to survive its crisis.
...Reports said that at the heart of the row are IMF rules under which the fund can only support countries whose debt is judged to be sustainable, and that doubts over Greece were growing.
Germany's powerful Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble -- one of the harshest critics of Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras's radical government -- had already led a wave of scepticism over whether a deal could be found.
"I'm somewhat sceptical whether that'll be possible by Monday. But I'm not ruling it out," Schaeuble said."
Greece points finger of blame at creditors - eKathimerini
"Government officials pointed to the divisions within the so-called institutions, following a report in the Financial Times according to which the IMF has pushed for Greek debt relief. In a strongly worded statement, a government source highlighted "serious disagreements and contrasting opinions between the IMF and the EC which create obstacles in negotiations and high risks."
...Any slim hopes that had lingered for a possible deal at next Monday's Eurogroup summit appeared to have been abandoned, with Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis also admitting that an agreement is not expected then though progress is being made. Varoufakis, who visited Paris and Brussels on Tuesday, is due in Rome on Wednesday and Madrid on Friday for talks with his counterparts as Greek officials stage a last-ditch diplomatic offensive in a bid to secure political, and financial, support."
After 5 ghastly years of bailout program, Greece still sees no end to financial pain - Fox News
"Wednesday marks five years since Greece voted in its first bailout deal, a day after violent popular protests left three dead. The act was followed by years of turmoil in which the country tried to overhaul its economy in the midst of a downturn as brutal as the Great Depression.
But after a myriad budget cuts, a million lost jobs, 250,000 closed businesses and nearly 240 billion euros ($267 billion) in rescue loans, the country is once again on the brink of default and relations with its creditors are worse than ever.
Moody's rating agency said Monday that Greece is, despite all its savings efforts, still the fourth riskiest sovereign bond issuer, behind Ukraine, Venezuela and Argentina, all which have either defaulted on their debt or are perilously close to doing so.
It's clear that the creditors — Greece's fellow eurozone member states and the International Monetary Fund — underestimated the problem and miscalculated how to fix it:"
Greece blows hot and cold in race to avert cash crunch - Reuters

Athens wants the ECB to increase the liquidity lifeline and permit the banks to buy more short-term treasury bills, easing the government's immediate funding crunch. Greece has already commandeered cash reserves from municipalities and government bodies as it scrapes together funds to repay 970 million euros to the IMF by May 12.
But euro zone central bank sources say hardliners led by Germany's Bundesbank want the "haircut" on Greek securities offered as collateral for the funding to be increased following recent credit rating downgrades of Greece and its banks."
Greece pushes for urgent Europe bailout deal - BBC

LAUREL HOLLOW, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) — Designer show houses are popular in wealthy suburbs and often draw thousands of visitors. But the village of Laurel Hollow says the attractions are illegal and has put an interior decorator on trial.
As CBS 2's Carolyn Gusoff reported, designer Claudia Dowling is charged with operating a commercial business in a residential neighborhood.
Dowling organized a designer show house at a historic Gold Coast mansion last year. Twenty-five decorators transformed rooms into showcases of their work, donating a quarter-million dollars in renovations to a homeowner trying to sell the house in exchange for public exposure of their crafts. Brochures were printed, and the show house was set to open to the public on Labor Day 2013 before the village shut it down.
"I thought I had the go-ahead," said designer Claudia Dowling. "I certainly wouldn't spend all that time and money and other designers' time and money if I didn't think I had the go-ahead.
"I didn't go out to harm anything."
Howard Avrutine, Laurel Hollow village attorney, said the law has to be enforced to protect neighbors.
"It's no different than if I had a retail store," he said. "Instead of selling shirts, I'm selling my services."
"If you lived next door to this home, would you want to see business activity going on on a daily basis for an eight-week period with vehicles coming in and out?" Avrutine said.
Dowling said she's been a part of 20 designer show houses and never thought organizing a mansion makeover would be a criminal offense. She faces fines and up to 15 days in jail when a judge rules later this month.
"We beautified it," she said. "We added money to the community there."
Her lawyer, Mona Conway, argues show houses are no different than fundraisers in private homes or real estate open houses. No admission price is charged. A charitable donation is collected.
"That would be like a village telling you, 'You can't paint your living room. You can't change your kitchen cabinets," Conway said.
The owner of the house, Bobby Bakchi, was not prosecuted. Village officials say they were unable to locate him to serve papers.
When reached by phone, Bakhchi told CBS 2 he had no comment.

When you are in the hunt for a job, the resume is the most significant piece of it all. For any given job vacancy, HR recruits and hiring managers are overwhelmed with resumes. As they don't have the resources or time to interview every applicant, they are all the time looking for ways to weed out applicants as rapidly as possible. Keep in mind, making a resume that is eye catchy in today's marketplace is important to get your desired job.
Here are some approaches to make your resume stand out:
Use a modern and professional format.
Organize your resume with the goal that it must be pleasing to the eye, however, doesn't concentrate more on visuals than content.
Include industry keywords and catchwords into your resume.
Utilize words and phrases like "managed", "accomplished," "advanced," and "team player" in the natural dialect of the document. But don't overuse these terms.
Include a professional summary
When formatting a resume, this 4–5 line section should be positioned directly following the header/contact info. This short summary is a prologue to you as the applicant while concentrating on how you can advance the business. By including this, you are showcasing what abilities and skills you can bring to help the employer. Do not just take it as an objective. Consider it like a billboard.
Be concise
Believe it or not, grown-ups have a limited capacity to focus. Actually, in the event that they see vast and never-ending paragraphs, they are less inclined to peruse the info — and that information is imperative! When you are arranging the data on your resume, put each expression into bullet points.
Highlight the important information
Regardless of whether your data is in bullet format, it might, in any case, be hard to rapidly recognize the relevant skills and accomplishments that are essential to the potential business. In the event that a bullet contains an inspiring award or quantifiable achievement that demonstrates your qualifications, at that point draw attention to this point by bolding the content.
Make especially your resume to tell a story.
Your resume ought to bring the reader through your proficient experiences, accomplishments, talents, and knowledge. It should demonstrate how you have progressed throughout the years, and what you can bring to the table.
Don't overuse decorative fonts and colors.
While you would prefer not to overdo it, you can utilize color in a conventional way to make your resume apparently differentiated from the thousands of documents the HR personnel will review. For instance, an inconspicuous navy blue border can be very appealing.
Prepare a new CV for each job.
Finally, don't make a conventional CV and after that send it out to each job. Much the same as you desire to stand out from the other applicants, corporations want to see that you have spare the time to become acquainted with the position you are applying for and thought about your application. Use language which relates particularly to the job description; possibly incorporate some industry buzzwords.
Tip: Write a cover letter and send it along with your resume. Unless the employer clearly says in a job post that he doesn't need a cover letter, write one.

President Edgar Lungu has congratulated the Patriotic Front (PF) members for the victory in Tuesday's Masaiti, (Copperbelt) and Kasamba (Nchelenge, Luapula Province) Local Government by elections.
The President is pleased that this result demonstrates that the party still remains a formidable force on the political scene.

"I wish to congratulate all party members and the leadership of our great party for the commendable job done during the campaigns leading to Tuesday's Local Government by elections," Lungu said.
He noted that the victory demonstrates the firm belief in democracy with elections as a platform of fair competition in the game of politics which is about winning and losing.
The President has also urged party members to engage even in greater mobilisation to ensure that they win more elections and make the party even stronger.
"But l want to emphasise that our political engagement must be based on peaceful campaigns and exchange of ideas amongst ourselves and with our opponents. Violence has no place in our scheme of things. Violence can not and must not be the currency of our politics," President Lungu pointed out.
