Former Mayor T. R. Carr of the St. Louis suburb of Hazelwood, Mo, and his wife Lucy early in their marriage served on the ministry staff of Intervarsity Christian Fellowship. InterVarsity is a longtime ministry focused on reaching university students, and is sponsor of the Urbana Student Missions Conference (this year "Urbana 15"), thought to be the world's largest student missions conference.
Beginning in Urbana, IL, a half century ago, the conference used the name "Urbana" (see www.urbana.org) after the city in which they met. The conference outgrew facilities there. Thus, in 2006 it moved to St. Louis – that first year in St. Louis named Urbana 06, continuing the great tradition of convening year end each three years between Christmas and New Year's Day,
Mayor Carr and Lucy have become key volunteers and servant leaders in meeting and overseeing many of the needs of the thousands of students that come to St. Louis for Urbana.
You will enjoy … and be inspired … in T. R.'s warm and helpful explanation of Urbana. In it he notes that the conference requires scores of volunteers, indeed, a means of mission service in itself.
And, remarkably, 250 or so mission and otherwise ministry groups will be represented at Urbana, inviting the students to consider serving Jesus through their respective ministry organization.
The St. Louis locations of Urbana include the Jones Dome (where the St. Louis Rams play football), the Americas (convention) Center (under the same roof as the Jones Dome), and surrounding hotels.
I remember attending a public welcoming leadership event wherein the St. Louis Mayor extended a giant welcome to Urbana. The conference provides – during a holiday time – a boost in the local economy when hotels and restaurants otherwise have limited business. Urbana, for the week, changes all that. .
And the merchants – and others — welcome Urbana . Instead of the wildness that often accompanies many student gatherings, the mostly Christian, born-again students are courteous, hospitable, and considerate of the wellbeing of others … and the property of others.
Many current Christian leaders point to their Urbana experience as having shaped their lives and visions.
T. R. Carr points to the conclusion of each Urbana wherein the participants together observe a "Lord's Supper," right there in the NFL football arena, thus ",,,proclaiming the Lord's death …!!
Tom Lin is an Urbana International Vice-President of InterVarsity, and the leader of Urbana 15. Earlier radio with Tom, titled … "Tom Lin leads Urbana 15 in STL; 'World's largest student missions' conference!' See www.urbana.org" … can also be accessed for anytime listening.
A bit more about T. R. Carr who serves as "sale and light" … and a good righteous moral compass … in public life in the St. Louis region. He serves or has served as …
· As Mayor of suburban Hazelwood;
· As University professor for 29-years, and a major department head for 15 years Southern Illinois University Edwardsville;
· As a member of the Ferguson commission to address issues in the 2014 crisis in Ferguson, Mo crisis, appointed by the Missouri Governor;
· As Vice-Chairman of the St. Louis County Police Commission;
· As mayor was strategic in bringing in a major shopping center in Hazelwood, known as St. Louis Mills, now known as St. louis Outlet Mall;
· With the departure of a major automobile car plant from Hazelwood, he provided leadership in developing a major industrial center as its replacement.
We thank God for Mayor and Mrs. T. R. Carr, Urbana volunteers, effective servants of God Himself!

Just Bitchin'
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover, I'm a child, I'm a mother ~ Meredith Brooks I'm pretty even-keeled most of time. I never yell and rarely pitch a fit. I'm generally easy going, unless I'm over-tired. Or super hungry. Throw in a few hormonal spikes and I can be… unpleasant. At first I get quiet. Which is abnormal. Eerie even. This is a warning sign. Then comes that hyper, giddy, everything is hilarious, burst of energy you have before you crash and that, right there, is when I can become a bit of a bitch. And who is in my line of fire? Surely not my children. They're too young and innocent to face my wrath full force. No. It's my closest friend. My soul mate. The one who is legally bound to me until death do we part. Here are the ten things he does to drive me over the edge. Poor man, but he knew what he was in for when he married me. 1. Slurping any liquid. He's doing it right now as I'm writing this.

Well, it's a record for that particular track. As no two tracks are exactly the same, there is no way to authenticate a "World Record".
It is however an extraordinary achievement.
Here is the Facebook link with the confirmation.
Well, it's a record for that particular track. As no two tracks are exactly the same, there is no way to authenticate a "World Record".
It is however an extraordinary achievement.
There is agreement among wing car racers about what constitutes world records. Records set on Tracy's track would be recognized by the wing car racing fraternity as a world record. The track record versus world record argument is usually raised by someone who doesn't race wing cars and is not representative of the view held by the actual racers. The only technical issue one might raise about Mike's record is that C12 is generally an American class and isn't raced any where else in the world but that is also true of records in some other classes as well. Nevertheless those records are typically referred to as world records also. So Sam Pan while you are technically right, you are still wrong because for those that are directly interested in such things there would be little or no disagreement that Mike indeed holds the world record in C12 for most laps.
The World of Wing cars recognizes Mikes run as a World Record.
1. The race was a full track of 8 cars.
2. The Track at Tracys meets the requirements of what a King track is...
3. Great run Mike....

Hi Super Moderator,
Please be sure my C-12 record is posted on the world record page. Shelby Thomas is still posted as having the record of 681 laps. My new record is 696.83 laps (Per my posting) at "SlotCars-R-Us "The Track" in White House TN.
Thank you sir.

Mike, the other Paul K. posts the World Records. I'm sure he will get it done as he is pretty efficient about such matters. Btw, congrats again, a helluva run. And I believe you mean 696.83.
Thanks again MON THE BIFF!! Typo has been corrected.
Tracy's track was designed from the start to break all records. From the banking in the turns to the one of a kind power. So it is no surprise records are falling like flies.
Turn some laps on this King track and then let me know if any records are broken.
Another "record" was just broken.
The above was the first new post in over 4 days.
I feel bad for Paul, that after being the conduit for slot car news(especially wing cars), for years, that he has been abandoned, for the dozens of slot car pages on FB, where after you something one day, you need to be an elephant to remember where it was, the next.

Each of us should post a new thread once a month.
I've been back racing since '86 and this is the lowest point for slots I can remember. I remember series like Keystone and Mid Atlantic having great turnouts. The most popular scale class in the 90's was 4.5 now it is an obsolete class. Tracks are closing left and right. No slot magazines for the latest news. Just hope it survives
Hi JW racing,
not too bad numbers at the wing car worlds over here in Bruehl:
G27 light: 44
G27 pro: 33
Sorry Mike7130 for the thread drift.
Great job on your WR and congrats!!!

A landlord who rented her property in Bay Bulls, Newfoundland is facing thousands of dollars in repairs after the property was damaged and robbed by its tenants – yet another case of landlord-tenant relations turned sour.
Francene Patey rented the home to a couple last January, but the tenants stopped paying rent in April of the same year. Patey alleges the tenants still had their names on the lease and never indicated that they were moving.
In June, she gave the tenants an eviction notice with one day to clean up. When she returned to the property, she found a nightmarish situation.
"He had basically taken everything, from our brand-new washer and dryer … curtains, curtain rods, light bulbs, our child's desk that was left there, another desk in the den … holes in the wall, mouldings torn up. It was just devastating," she said in an interview. "It's just ridiculous. I mean, we worked to have this piece of property, for them to come in and just destroy and walk away."
Police are investigating, but the news comes at a time when landlords across Canada are facing more and more of these cases.
Earlier this week, an Ontario property management company faced scrutiny for charging evicted tenants two months' rent following their departure from the property. The move, a callous one to some, drew applause from some landlords who have little to no recourse when it comes to evicted tenants and damaged property. Short of getting the police and the Landlord Tenant Board involved, which can take months to resolve, there is little landlords can do but to digest the losses.
"The law is one-sided," one landlord wrote on the CREW Forum. "The law has to be enforced more quickly instead of favouring the tenants only.
"My tenant did not leave any trace [of] where he is. There should be some means to trace such people, make it mandatory to provide a SIN."

McDonald's Canada has selected two stores located in London, ONT. and Vancouver, BC. for a trial to evaluate sustainability. Re-pulpable cold beverage cups will be used and wooden cutlery, stir sticks and paper straws will be offered to customers, replacing plastic. McDonalds is committed to recycling guest packaging in all their restaurants by 2025 and will use renewable, recycled supplies from certified manufacturers. At the present time, McDonalds is using napkins with totally recycled fiber content and is using paper for McWraps transitioning from cartons.
Rob Deck, Supply Chain Officer for McDonalds Canada commented "We know that when we innovate in our supply chain, we can move the market as we've done with beef from certified sustainable sources, chicken raised without antibiotics important to human health and cage-free eggs". This statement encapsulates the triad of welfare, sustainability and food safety. These principles are driving both consumer demand and corporate policy following the foundation laid by Bob Langert.

In this blog post you'll discover new ways to get even more out of your Google Analytics data. Using the Event Tracking feature in Google Analytics, you can easily get answers to questions like: "Which button do visitors click most often?" or "How can I get people to fill out my Quote Request form more often?" or "Are my customers clicking on the external links in the blog posts I write?" Well, you get the idea…
Your Visitors Use Your Website Differently Than You Think They Do
One of the first steps in determining what special actions you want to track on your site is to dive into the top-visited pages in Google Analytics. Start thinking about the various URLs and what they might mean to you.
What Does Google Analytics Pageview Data Look Like?
Sometimes there are variables and strange looking numbers and letters after the pagenames. You might want to ask your web developer what they refer to, so you can get a better idea of how pages and pageviews are recorded in Google Analytics. More likely than not, these strange characters are Query Strings that are used to either affect what content shows up on a page, or changes the layout of a page. Some of them can be ignored, but some are important.
Adding Event Tracking Code to Your Website
In the screenshot below, you'll see an image of webpage that has a "Favorite" button and an "Add to Library" button. These are examples various buttons and actions that can be tracked inside of Google Analytics.
There are many blog posts you can find in a search engine that share how to implement the proper code to enable this type of tracking in Google Analytics. However, the best resource is on the Google Developer Guides website.
Below, you'll see an example of how simple code can be added to a Register button. Adding the "onclick" javascript code allows information from the visitors' interaction with the webpage to be passed into Google Analytics.
If you have a "Watch A Video" button on your webpage, you can see in the example below how to add the special code so you can track how many times the button has been clicked, how long the visitors stay on your website when they do or don't click the button, and so much more.
Doing this type of code editing might be a little out of your skill level. If so, you can always contact an Orion Group developer to have them do it for you. Otherwise, I hope this blog post helps you on your way to gaining more intelligence on how your website visitors use your website and that you can put that insight towards refining your website to increase business!

Vision Therapy
What is Vision Therapy?
Vision therapy (also known as visual training and eye therapy) is a program aimed at remedying and enhancing an individual's visual abilities. It is suitable for both children and adults and conducted by a Behavioural Optometrist such as David. Its function is to:
- Enhance the efficiency and comfort of visual function
- Help prevent some visual problems
- Treat existing visual problems such as
- immature perceptual development
- eye alignment problems
- eye coordination problems
- poorly sustained near focus
- inadequate eye-hand coordination
What are the symptoms of poor vision?
- Headaches
- Blurred / Double Vision
- Poor or erratic performance
- Discomfort and fatigue
- Suppression
How can Vision Therapy help?
Vision Therapy is not used to strengthen eye muscles, but to improve the coordination and efficient functioning and processing of the visual system. David tailors each program to suit the specific needs of each patient, both in terms of their visual profile and their goals.
Diagnostic testing, training procedures and the use of lenses and prisms may be integral components of the successful treatment of a vision problem.
The frequency of consultation, the amount of home training and the duration of a course will vary depending on the nature and severity of the problem being treated and the specific needs of the patient.
If you think you could benefit from this treatment, you can Book an Appointment Online.

April 2019
TORONTO, ONTARIO, April 22, 2019 – Toronto Real Estate Board President Gurcharan (Garry) Bhaura announced that TREB Commercial Network Members reported 6,814,418 square feet of total leased space for all transaction types across the industrial, commercial/retail and office market segments. This result represented a 9.1 per cent increase compared to the first quarter of 2018.
There were mixed results regarding year-over-year changes in average per square foot net lease rates for transactions with pricing disclosed. The average industrial lease rate rose to $7.52 from $6.70 in Q1 2018. Average commercial/retail and office lease rates were both down year-over-year by 11 per cent and 11.5 per cent, respectively.
It is important to note that annual changes in average lease rates can be the result of changing market conditions and changes in the mix of properties leased from one year to the next, in terms of location, size, mix and other related variables.
"A strong increase in total square footage leased through TREB's MLS® System is likely linked to favourable economic conditions throughout the Greater Toronto Area. Historically low unemployment rates signify that the region continues to be a hub for economic growth and innovation, suggesting that space is in demand for a variety of businesses in multiple sectors," said Mr. Bhaura.
Total commercial real estate sales decreased by 106 between Q1 2018 and Q1 2019 from 286 to 180. A large part of this decrease was due to industrial sales declining from 108 in Q1 2018 to 62 in Q1 2019. Also, office sales declined by 36 from 75 to 39 units sold. Commercial/retail sales decreased from 103 to 79 units sold.

Robusta coffee in Ecuador
International agencies have come together to revive interest in Ecuador's flagging coffee industry, achieving some exceptional results.
As the love of coffee spreads into new markets there is a growing need to find new or improved sources of supply for everybody's favourite caffeinated bean.
But while the world's growing appetite for coffee seems to know no limits, and changing climatic conditions place more pressure on producers in many traditional origins, there are some producer countries whose output is dipping due to a confluence of economic and environmental factors.
The South American nation of Ecuador is one such country.
While Ecuador once had a strong coffee sector – peaking in the mid-1980s with annual production figures of around 2 million 60-kilogram bags – recent years have seen a marked decline in Ecuador's output.
"Although coffee world demand has not been reduced, production figures and exports in Ecuador have decreased in the last three years between 15 and 20 per cent," says Jairo Andrade, who works with Ecuadorian coffee producers on behalf of Catholic Relief Services (CRS). "I would say there are three factors that have hurt the sector's development: low prices, low productivity per hectare and coffee leaf rust."
Andrade says that declining productivity in Ecuador due to ageing crops, low density and lack of crop management have made it difficult for the country's coffee farmers to compete on the international market.
"The soluble coffee industry in Ecuador pays US$0.75 per pound, and these prices are not enough to allow farmers to make investments in plantations. However, it is difficult for the industry to pay higher prices as exports of industrialised coffee are in bulk with modest margins," Andrade says.
As a result, the domestic soluble coffee industry actually imports more than 1 million bags of Robusta coffee, mainly from Vietnam, to transform it into soluble and freeze-dried coffee and re-export it.
In an effort to revive this flagging industry, CRS has initiated The Borderlands Project to promote the revival of Robusta coffee as a mechanism of import substitution and to prevent the outflow of currency.
As part of this project, CRS has worked for the past four years with 1600 families of small-scale coffee producers in the Ecuadorian Amazon. One important issue was to look for new markets that recognise the quality of the Amazon Robusta coffee and be able to pay better prices.
This in turn led to the establishment of a Robusta cupping competition, the Taza Dorada (Golden Cup), which was held in the city Lago Agrio, in the Ecuadorian Amazon, located in one of the main producing areas of Robusta coffee.

Day 1 of the Girly-Girl challenge, created by NeverlandNailBlog, is to wear your favorite pink polish & nail art. So I combined my favorite pink holographic with another fav. pale pink & my love for flowers to create this design.
For my "Think Pink" design I used a light pink creme polish from China Glaze called Something Sweet for all my nails except my ring fingers & topped it with a clear glitter from Sally Hansen called Disco Ball for a little girly sparkle. On my ring fingers I used China Glaze QT which is a beautiful holographic polish that took me forever to find because it's discontinued. I then used acrylic paint to make some dainty little flowers & here is the final result:

A long, cold winter has passed, and the Hyundai A-League 2016/17 season is upon us.
A blockbuster clash between Melbourne Victory and Brisbane Roar gets the season underway at Suncorp Stadium on Friday night, and it promises to be an entertaining affair.
Two of the competition's most attacking and free-flowing teams will go head to head in a replay of last season's Elimination Final, which Roar won 2-1 in a thrilling finish.
While much is unknown about who will challenge for this season's Premiership and Championship, both of these teams will fancy their chances of winning silverware.
Roar are considered to be one of the teams to beat in the 2016/17 season after falling just short of reaching the Grand Final in their last campaign.
Brisbane has brought in some talented recruits in the off-season, led by Socceroo Brett Holman and Danish midfielder Thomas Kristensen.
Roar will relish the opportunity to play the opening round at Suncorp Stadium, a venue where they defeated Victory twice last season.
Brisbane will go into the game missing midfielder Dimitri Petratos, who is recovering from an ankle injury.
"The last time we were there we performed very, very well. If we perform to the same level, I have no doubt in my mind that we'll win." – Victory head coach Kevin Muscat.
"With the great support I've had from my family and the club, my batteries are fully recharged and I'm ready to go against Brisbane on Friday night. It's important obviously for me personally to feel good, but the fact that I can contribute to the team and the team is going well, that's fantastic." – Victory captain Carl Valeri.
"They're probably the best counter-attacking team. They'll press you hard for the first 15-20 minutes. We'll play to the final whistle, so we're confident we can create opportunities." – Brisbane coach John Aloisi.
"They are a good side with some good recruits and it's always tough when we play them. It's been a long pre-season and we're just itching to get out on Suncorp Stadium in front of our fans." – Brisbane captain Matt McKay.
Hyundai A-League 2016 Elimination Final
Brisbane Roar 2-1 Melbourne Victory
Friday, April 15, 2016
Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane
It was heartbreak for Victory when the two teams last met. Victory dominated for large periods of the game, eventually finding the lead in the 86th minute through Besart Berisha.
But remarkably, Brisbane scored two goals in five minutes via Matt McKay and Thomas Broich to advance to the Semi Finals.
Elimination Final, 2016: Roar 2-1 Victory at Suncorp Stadium
Round 27, 2015/16: Victory 0-0 Roar at AAMI Park

Words & Weathers in the Highlands
Weather. I believe it to be one of the hottest topics for conversation since the world began. In our family, speaking of the weather is equivalent to asking after your health, & saying 'I'm glad to see you,' all in one go. I imagine this far-reaching method of indirect communication must originate from life in a harsh environment, where every syllable counted, the excess lost to the wind. Wind brings variety in weather, and there was no shortage on both counts on Skye and surrounds in October! "Loch Duich from Kintail Hotel" sums it up for me – incredibly wild, changeable skies, full of colour and mesmerizing cloud formations, above autumn land and waterscapes to make a painter sigh with pleasure (that or go mad attempting to discern where to begin !). We enjoyed this view from the warmth of the hotel bar, sipping strong coffees and chuckling over the informative announcement by the barkeep that the "truffles & coffee" advertised on the entryway slate were not served till teatime, as the pigs had not yet returned from a successful rootle in the hinterlands that day…! I'll never again look at a chocolate truffle quite the same way!

City Fathers, or is That 'Mithers?'
Leave it to a painter (me) to title a painting of two old familiars in Aberdeen's town centre "City Fathers"……I've just learned that the Kirk of St Nicholas is termed the "Mither Kirk" of the city………oy! Havn't found anything on the incredibly twisted & gnarled ancient tree in the kirkyard as of this writing to give it feminine tendencies – if anyone does, well…..aye, I might want to know!! Ah well…..both fascinate me, and the strong contrast of the living thing, dark with damp bark and contorted in it's complex growing pattern and the stark stone structure reaching up with gothic fingers to a blustery sky were an inspiration and challenge to paint. I didn't manage to take time out to visit them this trip, as a variety of interesting things vied for my attention, including one of the Belmont Theatre's offerings,"Stone of Destiny," An entertaining way to absorb a bit of 20th Century Scots history!

Blogging, Guilt & Touring Scotland
For those of us born with an excessive sense of responsibility in life, I've concluded blogs were created as a special kind of torture! Yet something else to compete with precious time for living a creative life.....ah well, think more cohesively, type faster, & get on with it!!
Just returned from 20 action-packed days in the north of Scotland, it's been a great 'shot in the arm' for inspiration & good spirits. I'm now ready to dig in & finish that big Pennan harbourscape that's been getting the best of me, and pursue my pet project: market & exhibit my work in Scotland in a series of 3 exhibitions to help support TMSA, the Traditional Music & Song Association of Scotland in their work preserving and nurturing Scottish musical culture. More on that shortly.
The trip held many wonderful things for me, & a major highlight was a week of adventure exploring the Black Isle and out to the coast to Plockton, & around Skye with my entertaining companion, fellow painter & musician Ian Logan of Cults. Not nearly enough actual creating was accomplished as it WAS October with it's turbulent weather, but the breathtaking scenery, entertaining local citizenry, & interesting places made up in spades for lack of painting production! I did manage a few quick doodles here & there, & Ian actually got full drawings laid out for later watercolour paintings.
It was impossible to re-connect with all I'd hoped to see & speak with, in an effort to catch up with their interesting, busy lives since last I've been by...frustrating, yet deeply rewarding in what was accomplished. Already have a list going for a return trip.....blog or no blog.....!

I especially want to thank my wife for her support. Last night I was doing experiments till dawn, and our kids were crying in the next room. My wife handled both of them all by herself without disturbing me. Looking after two children at such a young age, she made no complaints and did her best to support my study. I really appreciate her. This journey with Oracle Certified Master (OCM) has probably been the craziest and most unforgettable learning experience in my life. I have never felt so excited and insane at the same time, even more than preparing for the national Gaokao (college entrance exam) years ago.
RELATED: Liu Denfeng Gives Advice on Beginning Your Own Exciting Journey to OCM Certification
I highly recommend the OCM crash course. I took the crash course as soon as I registered for the exam. Since I started with a weak foundation in Oracle, I had lots of problems the first time I went through all the scenarios. One good thing about the crash courses was that you had classmates to discuss these problems with so that you could deal with them quickly. Studying alone would undermine your confidence. What's more, learning with classmates was a powerful motivator. During the 7-day crash course, I slept less than 6 hours every day. I remember coming back immediately after dinner to do experiments, practicing until after midnight. Surprisingly, though I felt tired physically, I didn't feel like sleeping. This can be attributed to the teachers at the Oracle WDP training center, who were able to make the technology so exciting. Besides, my classmates were working so hard that it was easy to be influenced by them. I think the most important thing about taking the crash course was the camaraderie. It was very special to have an opportunity to get to know a group of like-minded friends, and they were all very successful in taking the OCM exam. Here, I especially want to thank Fan Jinyi and Wang Qianlong for sharing with me their work experience, materials, and useful tools and software. When I had problems in my study or at work, my classmates were always there to help me. I was able to learn so much from their timely help and feedback, even more than I did from the teachers.
"If you read a book a hundred times, the meaning of the book will emerge naturally."
I suggest practicing as much as you can after going through session the first time. If you practice 20 times before listening again, you will find the theories easier to understand and have a clearer idea. I found it very difficult to understand what architecture was really about, even though I listened several times, but after practicing 20 times, I found it very easy!
You have to get rid of the textbook as quickly as possible. It was tough at the beginning, but you have to push yourself to keep going. Reflect on your practice each time you finish it. Print out the extremely difficult commands and put them in your pocket, so you can have a read while you walk or eat. Try to put the most common commands into your muscle memory and make them part of your basic skills. You don't have to memorize large sections of code, because you can find them in the official documentation. You have to study the official documentation very carefully, making comparisons between different sections, and you will be able to locate the commands quickly. In the end, you will find that you only need to search one or two places in the documentation for each scenario.
Moreover, "sharp tools make good work." An SSD is a must-have as it saves you a large amount of time. Those who are able to finish one scenario within 20 seconds must have first-class configurations. I bought a secondhand PC specifically for practice. A SSD hard drive is 180GB, so scenario 1 can be put onto SSD, but most of my practice was done on the VSphere virtual server at my company. Finally, I want to tell you something about training: "Obsession leads to mastery -- practice, practice, practice!"

I have used four mind-mapping tools and prefer XMIND, because it meets the user's basic needs without needing to register. A daily mind map is necessary. Even though you can't do it every day, you have to organize your mind map regularly. One of the advantages of mind mapping is review, sorting pieces of information and structuring them into a whole.
There is the famous Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve, in which Ebbinghaus' experiment demonstrates the importance of review. It also shows that the better you understand what you have memorized, the slower you forget it. Mind mapping helps you remember and understand. It is worth noting that some commands still have to be memorized because it helps you understand. It's not just for the exam. If you memorize them just for the exam, you can forget them easily under pressure. Here, I would like to share with you the forgetting curve created by Ebbinghaus.
Human beings have two major categories of memory: short-term memory and long-term memory.
The first memory cycle is 5 minutes, the second 30 minutes, and the third 12 hours. These three memory cycles belong to the category of short-term memory.
Here are the important long-term memory cycles: the fourth memory cycle is 1 day; the fifth 2 days; the sixth 4 days; the seventh 7 days; and the eighth 15 days. Try to practice according to the long-term memory cycles when getting rid of the textbook -- it will be easier to do it scenario by scenario. If you stick to it, you will find that many commands will really become muscle memory, and you can type them out intuitively.
"It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books. It is better to read different authors than to travel ten thousand miles. It is better to be mentored by great teachers than to read different authors. It is better to practice by yourself than to be mentored by great teachers."
- Chinese Proverb
Your own practice day after day can be regarded as "traveling ten thousand miles" in your journey with OCM. In this sense, you are able to figuratively travel ten thousand miles, read ten thousand books and be mentored by great teachers at the training center. Naturally, you'll improve your skills.
I also want to thank all my classmates for your help, which made my journey with OCM a lot easier. Of course, my journey through life will also be a lot easier because of the help from my friends. I especially want to thank my wife for her support. When I registered for the training courses, our younger child was less than a year old and often woke up several times during the night. Our older one was less than three years old. It was very tiring to look after both of them. I thank her for this. I felt profoundly sorry for not being there for all of them. The best gift I can give to my children now is the role model of a hard-working dad. Finally, I want to share with you one of my favorite sayings:
"Persistence brings you a fine life. Self-discipline helps you win the future!"

Okay so I may not have bought all of these in November, but as I said in a previous post, I'm in the middle of exams so my life is a tad boring right now. I've decided to show you my recent jewellery purchases and tell you where I got them from.
The first item is this gold heart ring with a little cross on it. I'm not normally a fan of wearing crosses because I think they're religious and I'm not religious, but this one wasn't too religious-y (new word) looking.
Although the back of it might seem religious. But it could be taken either way. This ring is from Lovisa.
This next ring is a naughts and crosses ring from Sportsgirl. On the tag it said that it's a pinkie ring, but I bought the smallest size and it's still way to big for my pinkie. Either they lied or I have tiny pinkies haha.
This diamond ring I bought from the Finders Keepers market that I blogged about last month. I have a small collection of diamond-shaped rings because of my obsession with Marina and the Diamonds. I just can't help but buy them everytime I see one. You can buy this one here from Limedrop.
The next couple are some cheap eBay buys. The first one is supposedly a Betsey Johnson bracelet but I have a suspicion that it might be a knock-off. I also bought a gold star necklace and a gold skull necklace.
I'm working at a music festival tomorrow so that should be fun! And expect a blog post from that. I'm hopefully going to make another video about it too. If you missed my first video for Parklife, you can watch it here. Thanks for reading

Last week, I was cleaning my flower bed in my garden to plant tulip bulbs. To my surprise I found a small brown patch of dead grass in my front lawn. I was very upset at the beginning as I always like to keep my grass nice and green. When I examined closely I found lots of weeds growing in this brown patch of grass. In contrast, there were no weeds in the rest of the lawn which was very green and healthy (see the photo above). Then I thought to myself.... is this trying to teach me something? Then I began to contemplate...... If I kept my mind full of positive thoughts, for example loving kindness and compassion, it would be like the green grass of the majority of my lawn. No weeds would grow. However if my mind was filled with negative thoughts, it would be like the patch of dead grass. "Weeds" of the mind such as anger and hatred, would soon grow and will hurt me or even destroy me. Loving kindness is the antidote for anger (see the previous post below). The Buddha always encouraged us to practice loving kindness.
Buddha said;
"The one who practice loving kindness can expect eleven benefits":
1. One sleeps easily.
2. Wakes easily.
3. Dreams no evil dreams.
4. One is dear to human beings.
5. Dear to non-human beings.
6. The devas (gods of higher realms) protect one.
7. Neither fire, poison, nor weapons can touch one.
8. One's mind gains concentration quickly.
9. One's complexion is bright.
10. One dies unconfused.
11. If penetrating no higher -- is headed for the Brahma worlds ( kind of higher god realms).

FAQ's Teeth Whitening
Why choose TeethWhiteningKits2You over a dentist?
Our teeth whitening gels were developed and manufactured in Europe and have passed all EU and Trading Standards legislation. The same gels are regularly used by dentists worldwide. This means that our kits are as good as and as safe as what your dentist would use. The real difference is the cost. We do not have the overheads (or the profit margin!) that your dentist does which means we can pass those savings on to you.
How long does it take for my teeth to be whiter?
You will probably notice some tooth whitening after just a few treatments. But you will really notice a change after about 7 treatments - which is 1 to 2 weeks depending on how often you do the treatment. Your teeth will then continue to get whiter after each treatment until you get the results you want.
I've never whitened my teeth before - is it difficult?
Simply put - no! Full instructions come with all of our products. Our kits are easy to use. The trays (or moulds) we use in our kits are not the thermo mould type which you have to heat up and bite into - we use dual arch moulds where you only have to add the gel to the top and bottom sides of the tray and place in your mouth for up to an hour a day. Much easier and much more effective.
How does the teeth whitening process actually work?
The whitening process is actually using sodium perborate as the active ingredient. This is a safe and well tested process which has been in use for many years and works for more than 95% of people. Now for the science! The sodium perborate breaks down and the oxygen produced acts on the stained tooth which is then oxidised into a white colour without affecting your teeth or the tooth enamel.
I have sensitive teeth - do you sell bleach free, non peroxide products?
Yes we do - everything we sell is non peroxide teeth whitening products. There is a kit, a pen and a whitening foam. It is our newest range and is bleach free and therefore particularly suitable for people with sensitive teeth.
Will it whiten my crowns, veneers, fillings and other dental work?
No. It only works on your natural teeth. So care must be taken to ensure that your natural teeth are only whitened to the colour of your dental work.
How long does it last?
This really depends on how you treat your teeth after the whitening process. There is no reason why it should not last for 2 or 3 years. There are products available on our website to help you keep your teeth whiter for longer as part of your daily routine. Alternatively, some people like to do a "top-up" every 6 to 12 months.
Is it safe to whiten my teeth at home?
Yes. Our products all comply with tough EU and UK regulations. They all come with full detailed instructions and are easy to use.
Are there any potential risks or side effects?
Our products are zero peroxide so risks and side effects are highly unlikely. Some people can get temporary tooth sensitivity during the process. Some get gum discomfort. Both of these usually disappear within a few days of starting the process and will completely disappear when you stop or finish the treatment. Pregnant or breast feeding women should not engage in dental whitening.
Can I use your teeth whitening gels in trays I bought elsewhere?
Yes. You can buy our gel refills and safely use them in other dental trays or moulds.
I lost my instructions - do you have them on your website?
Yes. Click on instructions for full details.
I have a tooth missing - will this affect the process?
The simple answer is no.

"I've always thought of accessories as the exclamation point of a woman's outfit." – Michael Kors.
To date, I have been amazed by the positive feedback received in response to my "Irish Girl Boss Series". This week, I had the pleasure of interviewing the fabulous, quirky and hilarious girl boss, Nicki Hoyne. Nicki is the absolute epitome of a girl boss, having worked relentlessly to launch her very successful brand, My Shining Armour. My Shining Armour is an online haven filled with gorgeous accessories, built on Nicki's ethos to be her own hero. "All the women, who independent" will really enjoy this interview – even Queen Bey would bow down!
1) What inspired you to create My Shining Armour?
My Shining Armour niggled at the back of my mind for a long time. I have always been massively into accessories. My friends will tell you I give the best presents. I am a big online shopper and as technology and the internet advanced, I saw online stores open and I thought to myself; I can do that and I can do it even better. Online is an even playing field. With a good site you can easily compete with the large multinationals and with social media being free and making it so easy to promote businesses, I knew I was onto something.
When I look back now, I see how it all fell into place and that every experience I had (both good and bad) led me to this point. It's true what they say, if you lived your life backwards it would all make perfect sense. I am really passionate about brands and doing good, honest business. I am fortunate to have worked with brands like Marc Jacobs, Calvin Klein, Nintendo, Balenciaga and Chloé so I have learnt how big brands conduct themselves and why they are so successful. Aliza Licht said it best; "I came to the point where the job I wanted didn't exist so I had to create it for myself".
2) Often, it's our flaws, blunders and setbacks that actually allow us to advance in life by altering our perspective. Throughout your career, what do you think was the most important mistake that you have learned from?
I firmly believe that you learn more from a bad experience than a good one. Every negative experience I have had in my career has been a lesson that I am grateful to have learned. Although it is extremely difficult at the time, these experiences made me a better person, business-person and now, boss. I always tell myself that setbacks and challenges are building my experience so in years to come when the stakes are even higher, I know exactly how to handle them correctly. Setbacks will always happen, what's important is how you deal with them!
3) What does your typical day look like?
Every day is different. I am in Dublin usually once a week for a jam-packed day of meetings which is always fun. When I'm in the office, I will walk to work and Snapchat – I'm always full of beans in the morning. I like to get in before the team, have my coffee and get my head straight for the day. I am a big list person so I'll run through my "urgent" and "important" tasks and try plot out my day. I do all of the social media imagery in real time. I'll plan to post what's new, back in stock or just something that the mood of the day calls for. I'll shoot flat lays, reply to social media comments and questions, answer emails, order stock, update the website and anything else that comes at me. If new stock arrives we'll drop everything and fawn over it. On busy days, I will help pack orders for an hour or so. I love imagining the person on the other end opening their package. The day flies so I usually eat lunch at my desk and try to get out of the office when the girls are leaving at 5.30pm. Then, I'll go for a run or do a fitness class. My family live close by, we eat out a lot or I try to drop by conveniently at dinner-time! I get home at 8pm or 9pm and chill out for an hour browsing online or reading before bed.
4) Do you take inspiration from other women in business and if so, who?
I love reading stories of other women in business. My favourite books so far are Tamara Mellon's "In Her Shoes", "Lean In" by Sheryl Sandberg, Sophia Amoruso's "#Girlboss" and I am dying for Marissa Carter's book to come out. I love the Image Networking Breakfasts. I always leave with a bounce in my step and lots of ideas. I also love my Acorns gang they are so supportive and uplifting. It is an awesome government funded program for women in business in rural Ireland. We are each other's biggest fans and supporters. I don't think I would be where I am today without their encouragement and support.
5) The thing that I love most about My Shining Armour is the voice of the brand. In my opinion, it's not just about glamorous accessories; it's also about reflecting the state of mind of women who believe that fashion and confidence go hand in hand. Do you have any items in your wardrobe that give you an instant boost of confidence?
We all have those pieces that make us feel good and put a pep in our step. I have a pair of gold sequined ballet pumps I got in a Zara sale about 5 years ago. I wear them all the time especially when the day needs a little sparkle. I can be going to work, running to the supermarket or out for weekend brunch. They just make me feel like me!
6) How would you describe your personal style?
Comfortable, classic and cool with a pop of colour, print or sparkle. I love statement accessories whether jewellery, bags, shoes or sunglasses. I always keep my clothing pretty simple and love to find unique one off pieces to make my outfit pop. I have the most beautiful ring from the Souk in Marrakesh, crazy Indian earrings from Portobello Market in London and I love a discreet designer bag to add a bit of luxury. I don't feel me if there's not a pop. That's just who I am!
7) Who is your style/beauty hero?
Olivia Palermo all the way. She is flawless! She gets it right every, single time. The girl has serious accessories game and I love how she takes risks and has fun with fashion. That's the secret to having great style, do you and make a look your own. No one can have the exact same accessories as you. You will always look like you put lots of thought and prep in when you really put on a piece of jewellery, shoes, grabbed a bag and ran out the door.
8) Tell us about your beauty essentials. Do you follow a particular make up routine?
I'm not a big make up person. I like to look like myself and as if I'm not wearing much make up. Saying that I use quite a few products, everything but foundation. I am big into skincare. I think that if you look after your skin, you will always look good. I love fresh dewy looking skin and have yet to find a foundation that I like so I just don't wear it. I used to work for Elizabeth Arden so I've learnt about a few insider cult products. I use everything from serums to eye cream and masks. My must have products are Elizabeth Arden's "Visible Different Skin Balancing Exfoliating Cleanser", Elizabeth Arden's "Prevage Serum" and I do a weekly deep cleansing clay mask called Freeman's "Avocado and Oatmeal Mask" that I get in US drugstores when I visit. I never sleep in my make up and drink lots of water.
9) If you had to choose three favourite pieces from the My Shining Armour website right now, what would you choose?
The "Gisele Ring", "The Bombay Duck Spotty Initial Mugs" and the "Ban.Do Lady Of Leisure Agenda".
10) What are your top entrepreneurship tips?
1. Always strive to be better. Good and great are not enough for me I want to be excellent.
2. Write it down and make it happen. Set goals and work towards them. There is nothing better than ticking things off the list.
3. Care. About your employees, your business, your customers and yourself.

text: Wizard 0 Posted July 1, 2006 (edited) Keep both of them at your enemy! The fine folks at Ubisoft Paris have put up a blog over at IGN.com to give some insight over at what their doing to improve the game experience. Here's a little snippet of the first entry by Marie-Sol Beaudry. Who is the pretty cute producer of Red Steel over at Ubisoft Paris. For this initial Blog entry, we want to talk about the Wii controller and how we're using it to it is fullest. The challenge for working on a new system, especially one that has such a focus on the interface with the Wii controller is that everything we're doing in the game is directly effected by the controller. This includes everything from level design, overall game design, movement and storyline. When we first received the controller our imaginations were limitless but then we spoke to our programmers and determined that there were guidelines and rules of which we'd need to adhere to in regard to both functionality as well as game play. Check in from time to time to see how development is going on one of the most anticipated Wii titles. - k`dashz0ring Edited July 1, 2006 by K`dash Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KVIFF Press Conference Video: CASM Films creators, Denis O'Hare (Writer), Anna Paquin (Actress), Stephen Moyer (Director), Cerise Hallam Larkin (Producer) and Mark Larkin (Producer) sat down at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival (KVIFF) on Sunday, July 1, 2018 to discuss the making of their film, "The Parting Glass" which premiered that day at the festival.
The video below is a very interesting session where they discuss how the film was made, how they got the cast.
Stephen describes how he is always looking for "flawed" characters (which we've heard him say many times) and also deep and dark with sardonic humor. Denis discusses his writing and also how he felt that the cast did well playing his family members.
Anna talks about her character and how different she is from her, and that she was much younger. She also discusses CASM's new project "Flack" which will be on TV soon via the CBS-Lionsgate joint venture with Pop TV and UKTV.
Denis discusses his involvement as actor and writer and what it was like to portray such a personal family story. The questions are asked in Czech, but The Parting Glass guests, of course, answer in English. Watch the entire Press Conference below:

'Yoga of Self-Acceptance' author to read at Malaprop's
Tony Wolff, author of "Lightening Up: The Yoga of Self-Acceptance," will hold a reading at 6 p.m. Thursday at Malaprop's Bookstore at 55 Haywood St. in Asheville.
With great respect for the teachings of TKV Desikachar, a nod to Buddhism, a healthy dose of mindfulness practices, a guide to how anatomy and neurophysiology can influence a more balanced practice and more than a dash of humor and common sense, the book offers a new view of progress — one built not on learning to put your foot behind your ear, but rather on your ability to recognize and cultivate your own inner teacher.

Kingsolver to speak at Literacy Dinner in Buncombe County
ASHEVILLE — New York Times bestselling author Barbara Kingsolver will keynote the Literacy Council of Buncombe County's 11th annual Authors for Literacy Dinner & Silent Auction on Nov. 29.

"I'm interested in how people cope with shifting paradigms," Kingsolver explains. "It struck me as fantastic territory for a novel. I wanted to compare the world of right now — which feels dangerous for a new set of reasons — with the late 1800s when people also faced what looked like the end of their world."
The Authors for Literacy Dinner & Silent Auction featuring Kingsolver will begin with a cocktail hour and silent auction to include distinctive art and crafts, autographed and rare books, and priceless opportunities to enjoy excursions in Asheville and beyond. Following the cocktail hour, event guests will enjoy a three-course dinner and presentation by a current Literacy Council student.

Proceeds will benefit the Literacy Council's programs, which provide comprehensive literacy and English language skills to 350 students and 1,270 book recipients in Buncombe County annually. The Literacy Council gives opportunities to people who don't believe they have a second chance to learn.
Authors for Literacy Dinner & Silent Auction event details:
• Thursday, Nov. 29 from 6-9 p.m. at Crowne Plaza Resort Expo Center, 1 Resort Drive, Asheville.
• General admission tickets: $95.

As a result of these websites and chat plan folks have been provided a greater chance to learn their enthusiast. The reason receiving people are presented the ability to be associated all over the place they could be. Distinct communities and aspects of modern society possess the capacity to fulfill on top of a straightforward select of the particular computer important-table. Just communicating somebody offers an increased likelihood to be able to satisfy his / her lover due to elevated variety of daters. Also, it is quicker to fulfill men and women online as a consequence of online operating time websites and dialogue places.
Following chatting for the important when and becoming familiar with the other, it may be natural and normal in order to meet up with. It might be quite a shallow passionate relationship in case you both of these are pleased just simply being forever just connecting. Each folks may be totally searching for someone to talk to. Identifying enjoy online supplies the two surface finishes to hold person right away. For the reason that it is actually easier to be authentic when linking on-line. Take into account that you might say nearly anything irrational and you also won't learn to view the system else confident that it's corny.
