French President Emmanuel Macron used an address to world leaders gathered in Paris for Armistice commemorations on Sunday to send a stern message about the dangers of nationalism, calling it a betrayal of moral values, Reuters reports.
With U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin sitting just a few feet away listening to the speech via translation earpieces, Macron denounced those who evoke nationalist sentiment to disadvantage others.
"Patriotism is the exact opposite of nationalism: nationalism is a betrayal of patriotism," Macron said in a 20-minute address delivered from under the Arc de Triomphe to mark the 100th anniversary of the end of World War One.
"By pursuing our own interests first, with no regard to others', we erase the very thing that a nation holds most precious, that which gives it life and makes it great: its moral values."
Trump, who has pursued "America First" policies since entering the White House and in the run-up to the congressional elections this month declared himself a "nationalist", sat still and stony-faced in the front row as Macron spoke.
There was no immediate response from either the White House or the Kremlin to Macron's comments.
In the week ahead of Sunday's commemoration, Macron spent time touring World War One battlefields in northern and eastern France, repeatedly warning in speeches of the resurgence of nationalism, saying it threatened the unity so carefully rebuilt in Europe over the past 70 years.
In one interview, he compared the political tone now to the 1930s, saying complacency towards unbridled nationalism then had opened the way for the rise of Hitler.
In part, his warnings seemed aimed at far-right parties that have gained ground across Europe in recent elections, including in France, where the National Front, now renamed the National Rally, has nudged ahead of Macron's En Marche movement in the polls ahead of European Parliament elections next May.
Besides France, right-wing nationalist or populist parties are on the rise or now have a stake in power in Italy, Hungary, Poland, Austria and Slovenia, among others.
There has been a similar resurgence in nationalist-populist sentiment from Brazil to Turkey and the Philippines, echoing trends in Russia and the United States and challenging the multilateralism that leaders like Macron are keen to preserve.
In his address on Sunday, Macron said that "old demons are reawakening" and warned against ignoring the past.
"History sometimes threatens to repeat its tragic patterns, and undermine the legacy of peace we thought we had sealed with the blood of our ancestors," he said.
Asked in late October what he meant when he described himself as a nationalist, Trump cited his love of the country and said it was about putting it first economically.
"We're giving all of our wealth, all of our money, to other countries and then they don't treat us properly," he said.
"For many years other countries that are allies of ours... they have not treated our country fairly. So in that sense, I am absolutely a nationalist and I'm proud of it."

I'm a big fan of a little haze in photos! I think that's why I love back lighting so much. (Did you see my post on back lighting on Paper Heart Camera?) This method of adding a little haze works for color and black and white conversions very nicely! I learned the first part from Mom Tried It.
- In Photoshop go to Adjustments > Exposure > Move the Offset tab to the right just slightly and you will immediately see a little haze in your photo.
- Then, I like to flatten my image > make a duplicate > filter > other > High Pass > Set to 20ish > OK > Convert layer to Soft Light > adjust opacity to taste. This adds back a little definition without taking away your haze.

Parents, students petition town council, want Teaneck High School senior prank charges dropped
Parents and students are coming to the defense of Teaneck High School seniors accused of pulling a prank that went too far.
Supporters gathered at a town council meeting Tuesday to express disappointment in how the local police department handled its response.
A total of 63 students were arrested on May 1 for what some call an innocent senior prank. Others say the school was vandalized, and that the students should face consequences for their actions.
Friends and family members are encouraging the council and mayor to do what they can to have the charges against the seniors dropped.
Janelle Rojas is an honor student, headed to William Paterson to study nursing next fall. She admits to being one of those taken into custody that night. She says they blew up balloons and put vaseline on some door knobs.
"Our intentions were never bad," says Rojas. "Our plan was to blow up balloons or do something subtle and small."
Rojas believes those actions didn't warrant the heavy police response or criminal charges. "I was terrified," she says. "We were surrounded and being yelled at and cursed at by cops."
Janelle's mother and other parents at the meeting are hoping what they call a minor prank won't cause major damage to the futures of the 63 students involved.
"Their future is gone, scholarship gone, pretty much follows them wherever they go," says parent Joyce Luciano.
Supporters say the school-sanctioned punishment, which included a suspension, should be enough consequences.
The superintendent has said there was no major damage to the school. But so far, there has been no indication from the police or the prosecutor that the charges will be dropped.

World Wrestling Federation presents RAW
Date: 4/19/1993
From: Civic Center, Poughkeepsie, New York
We see a quick promo by the WWF World Tag Team Champions Money Inc insulting the Beverly Brothers. The Beverly Brothers also cut a promo saying that they will be winning the WWF World Tag Team Championships.
RAW Opening Video
Opening Contest: Razor Ramon defeated Virgil: Ramon continues to get a great baby face reception from the Poughkeepsie crowd. After nearly seven minutes of action, Ramon wins following the Razors Edge.
Vince McMahon, Randy Savage and Bob Bartlett hype up Money Inc./Beverly Brothers and a Bret Hart interview.
Second Contest: Giant Gonzalez defeated LA Gore: Gonzalez in just over a minute following a choke slam.
Luna Vachon is cutting a interview on Sherri Martel. Footage from Wrestle Mania IX is shown, along with the attack by Luna on Sherri in the backstage area.
Third Contest: Tatanka defeated Art Thomas: Just another squash match with Tatanka winning following a Samoan Drop in two and half minutes.
WWF World Tag Team Champions Money Inc. defeated Beverly Brothers in a non-title match: All four men begin to brawl before the bell with the Beverly Brothers getting a brief advantage. DiBiase and Blake start off the match with Blake sending DiBiase to the floor. Blake with a wrist lock on DiBiase but DiBiase is able to reverse that. They counter into several wrist locks and hammerlocks. DiBiase with a shoulder block and kicks Blake right in the face. DiBiase misses a standing elbow drop and is scoop slammed. Beau tags in and connects with a double axe handle off the top. Blake with several right hands and leg drops the left arm of DiBiase. Blake comes off the ropes and hit's a head butt. Blake with a arm bar on DiBiase who is unable to get out of the hold. Beau tags in and continues to work on the left arm of DiBiase. DiBiase tries to make the tag to IRS but is being prevented by Blake. DiBiase makes the tag but the referee was distracted by Beau and thus will not allow the tag. DiBiase is double teamed in the corner for a few moments as IRS is sent back to his corner. Beau tags in and leaps off the middle rope down across the left arm of DiBiase. IRS tags into the match but was standing on the bottom rope so it is disallowed. Blake continues to control DiBiase in the corner by choking him. DiBiase with a back elbow in the corner and scoop slams Blake. IRS makes the tag and misses a elbow drop coming off the ropes. Beau leg drops the left arm of IRS but IRS takes Beau down by the hair for a moment. Beau with several stomps in the corner and tags out to Blake who drives down across the shoulder of IRS off the top rope for a near fall. Blake rakes IRS eyes and the Beverly Brothers double team IRS again. Back from a commercial, IRS has a front face lock on Beau. DiBiase sneaks into the match and puts a front face lock on Beau as well. DiBiase chops away on Beau in the corner. Beau with a series of right hands but is poked in the eyes by DiBiase. Beau kicks DiBiase in the face as he comes off the ropes. IRS tags back in and stomps away on Beau. DiBiase gets a tag from IRS and is able to prevent Beau from tagging out. Beau comes off the ropes and manages to take DiBiase down with a swinging neck breaker. Blake gets the tag and head butts DiBiase. Blake follows up with a backdrop and scoop slam. Blake tags out to Blake for some reason who covers DiBiase for a near fall. Beau with a few right hands and a back elbow to retain control. Beau continues his fury of offense with a backdrop and IRS breaks up the pin attempt. Beau accidentally hits Blake with a right hand and DiBiase is able to roll Beau up for the win. **
Vince McMahon is in the ring and introduces former WWF World Heavyweight Champion Bret Hart. Hart says that he has been a underdog and has lost before. Hart believes himself and his fans. Hart says that he has a hit list and Lex Luger is on the top of that list. A clip of Lex Luger attacking Bret Hart at the press conference from Wrestle Mania IX is shown. Bret even calls out Hulk Hogan and says that he will be getting his WWF World Heavyweight Championship back.
Main Event: Bam-Bam Bigelow defeated Phil Apollo: During the contest, Doink the Clown is waling the aisle pulling pranks on the audience. Bigelow wins the squash following a flying head butt.
After the match, Friar Ferguson comes down and protects Apollo. Ferguson dropkicks Bigelow to the floor.
End of Show
My Take: Razor Ramon continues to get a very good baby face reaction despite the fact he is a heel. I'm starting to think that he only gets that type of reception in New York. A Luger/Hart feud could be interesting, and it would greatly help Luger in being a top tier heel. Luger is already easy to hate. Found it to be interesting that Bret Hart would warn Hulk Hogan that he is coming back for his strap. Good to see a baby face calling out other baby faces. If Bam-Bam Bigelow is going to be wasted in a feud with Friar Ferguson, that will be a sad thing to see.

Timesheets MTS Software ..... your source for accurate, cost effective, and easy to use time tracking softwareHome->Project Timesheet
The Importance of the Project Timesheet
If you charge by the hour or by the project then NOT using a project timesheet is simply business suicide. If you decide not to use a project timesheet you can look forward to:
- Not knowing how much your project is really costing
- Not knowing how much profit margin (or loss!) you are making
- Not knowing whether the amount you're quoting on similar jobs is realistic or not
- Not knowing the current state of progress in your project
- Not knowing what your employees are up to
- Paying contractors for doing the wrong work, doing work too slowly, or even not doing any work at all
- Not getting paid for progress payments on time, or at all. After all how can you expect progress payments if you only have the faintest idea of what progress you're making?
- Not recovering project material costs, incidental costs, and travel costs.
- Increasing your end of month accounts work load and stress levels.
What sort of Project Timesheets Should I Use?
That depends on what you're using now. If you're using nothing then make your way to the nearest newsagent or stationer and buy some of those cheap little timesheet books for each and every person in your business. And start filling them in. Now.
If you're using a paper based system then consider a computer based system. There are free systems available for both Windows PC's and Linux PC's. If you run an Apple machine there are reasonably priced systems for those too. Honestly it's not worth the effort rolling your own system these days. For the cost of 10 minutes of data entry a day and $25 US I know of one manufacturing company who has converted their old punch clock system to a PC based system. This enables them to track sick leave by employees, monitor their leave liability, and examine their overtime costs on a day to day basis. All this tracking is done completely live, no waiting for the end of the month, week, or day, Managers can get the information in seconds.
Suggested Computer Project Timesheets Features
As a minimum you will need the ability to track time by project and user. If there is no reports module then the data storage should be open and some sort of standard (like MS Access, FoxPro, DBF, SQL Server etc etc). Ideally the system should allow users to enter their own project timesheets, or at a minimum a single person should be able to enter project timesheets quickly for all staff. Nice to have features would be time AND expense tracking. Even better would be to have time and expense reporting too.
Get a Project Timesheet Today!
If you're experiencing any of the 'benefits' I mentioned above then do something about it. Get a projec timesheet system up and running today. At least use a paper based system, or better still try a software project timesheet solution. The cost is low, the on-going expense minimal, and the potential benefits to your business bottom time huge!

Manel Balcells, Department of Health Commissioner at LEITAT Technology Centre
One of the challenges of any country relying on a knowledge economy is undoubtedly to look at innovation as a strategic element for the country's growth and development, and to manage to turn innovation into economic value. That is to say, to return the benefits derived from investments conducted in basic and applied research, back to society.
However, any country prioritizes productive sectors which provide significant benefits, promoting the conditions that make the so called innovation – ecosystem possible, thus completing the value chain from research to market.
Back home in Catalonia, we are well aware of the detachment between the high level of biomedical research – leader in Europe with global significance (you can view the results of the centres in the report from the Central de Resultats) and the moderate degree of innovation reflected by European standards and published by the European Commission in the Regional Innovation Scoreboard.
Regional innovation levels
Source: European Commission, Regional Innovation Scoreboard 2014
Reversing this situation is not easy. It cannot be expected to from just specific actions alone, however brilliant these may be or from a series of success stories showing up on the immediate horizon. We need a paradigm shift, one that can be the result from first defining a strategy and then implementing it efficiently and effectively.
In this sense, to help accelerate this process, the CASost, an advisory body to the president of the Generalitat, has produced a report entitled "Proposal for knowledge revival strategy in the health system and health research in Catalonia". The report, endorsed by leading specialists in this field, relies precisely on a set of measures that in the field of biomedical knowledge revival, would allow Catalonia to perform as well as the leading countries in a relatively short period of time.
Henceforth, we could say that innovation in the field of health can take off. To do this, first we need the strategy and then the instruments. But above all we need the political will to move forward.

ClickBank's Affiliate Program
Review Of ClickBank's Affiliate Program(Review updated - February 2005)
Quick Summary
IntroductionClickBank is both a retailer (allowing vendors to sell products online) and an affilate network (allowing web sites to earn commission by linking to vendors).
In either case, checks (written in US dollars drawn on a US bank), are mailed up-to bi-weekly, two weeks after the corresponding pay period. A small percentage of your earnings are held as "reserve" which is paid later, in case customers are refunded, etc.
We have received checks like clockwork, always on time, (and sometimes early!) from ClickBank for several years, and their customer service as always been prompt, helpful and polite.
Joining As An Affiliate(ClickBank's vendor features are reviewed separately).
I highly recommend the ClickBank affiliate program. Joining is is free and open to web sites located in any part of the world.
Affiliates earn 5% to 75% commission on sales of products they link to, and have a choice of thousands of vendors. If you look around, you will almost certainly find niche vendors that tie in to your site's theme.
One advantage of linking to a ClickBank vendors is that you know you will be credited for all sales that go through their network as the tracking is automatic as part of the payment processing (unlike most other affiliate networks which track sales separately from payment processing, and may be subject to errors, loss of tracking codes, etc.). The only case where you are not credited for sales, is if the customer pays the vendor using some other method than ClickBank, for example, PayPal. For this reason, I would recommend that you be cautious of those vendors which encourage other payment methods, or who use ClickBank for only some of their customers.
One final benefit of linking to ClickBank, is you will also receive credit if the customer doesn't buy immediately: cookies are used to give credit for sales up to 90 days after the initial click-through.
The only major disadvantage of ClickBank's affiliate program is there no uniform system for vendors supplying their affiliates with banners or advertising copy (Update 2009: The new "Vendor Spotlight System" goes someway towards lessening this limitation). However most of the more successful vendors (which tend to be listed nearer the top of their category), do provide affiliate banners, articles or other marketing tools.
Providing you are prepared to invest a modest amount of time in finding the right vendors for your site, and integrating whatever marketing tools they provide, this could be a lucrative affiliate program.
As an affiliate, there is also the opportunity to earn "bonuses" by referring additional vendors (but at the time of writing opportunity for referring affiliates). This is known as the "reseller" program. My own experience is can be a nice suppliment to your own affiliate sales, but it is better to concentrate (at least primarily) on selling products - as it is simply easier to earn money this way.
Finally, I would point out that there are many third party tools and scripts available for ClickBank affiliates - to help them be more successful with the program - including our own CBRocket.
ConclusionI have nothing but good things to say about ClickBank.
Overall then, I highly recommend ClickBank, and choose them as an Editor's Choice.

Pros and cons of younger moving crews
Employing Moving Experts - December 22, 2019
Relocation, both local and long-distance can be hard, and that is understandable. You are going to a new city, you are going to have huge amounts of changes of all types and that is something that you need to prepare for. It's not an easy job neither, and you are going to require some help. Choosing the right moving company is crucial for getting a great moving experience, since, if your move goes great, you have a great overall start in your new city. Knowing this, you might wonder what is the type of workers you would wish for. Getting experienced workers is great, but how about hiring the young moving crews?
Why is it important to get the right moving crew for your move?
Once the moving day comes along, you will realize how much work is there to be done. You might need help even before you need the movers at all. If you haven't packed in time, make sure you know what are the items you should pack last. This way, you will have everything you need close to you until you are ready to go.
When it comes to professional moving crews, there are things that you should expect from them. This way, you can be sure you know what type of movers is right for you. When choosing the moving crew, make sure they are:
- Reliable and professional, since if they are late, you are late and that is not good
- Affordable, since you don't want to overpay them
- Efficient so everything can be done in time
- Movers need to be physically capable of lifting heavy items
- Experienced in their work field so you know they can handle the move
- Easy to communicate with in case you have some special requests for them
- Understanding and willing to make the move easier on you
- Younger moving crews and older moving crews have some of these qualities, but hardly all of them, so choose what is the most important to you first
Both young and old movers can do a great job so make sure you know exactly what they can offer to you before you make the decision. Always choose a reliable and professional moving company, and best residential movers. Your move will be great this way.
Pros and cons of younger moving crews
When it comes to younger moving crews, they might be the better choice for you. It really depends on your preferences, but there are many reasons to go with this choice. Young movers are as reliable as older ones if you hire a reliable moving company in the first place. There are many benefits of hiring young people. But, they are not as experienced. So, it is up to you to make sure you get just what you need.
Pros of younger moving crews
There are many pros when it comes to choosing younger moving crews. All you have to do is try to choose them and you are sure to have a great moving experience. It can turn out they are much better when it comes to your needs than the older crews. Some of the most obvious benefits of choosing the younger moving crews are:
- They are usually more affordable. They are just starting to get into the moving business and they know that the best way to get on the top is to have a job in the first place. Low prices are thair way of getting customers and showing that they are as professional as their older colleagues. This way, you can afford an extra service, like junk removal service at the same price you can get a single service from experienced movers.
- Younger moving crews will try to prove themselves to you. This means they will try to get the job done fast and just the way that suits you. It is a huge benefit, especially if it is your first time moving. Having them show that they care about the job they do is really important.
- Efficient and without delays. Young people tend to be really efficient and get everything done as soon as possible. You will see that they are really trying not to fall behind on the schedule. You will be moved in time. And that is great if you need to be done with the move as fast as possible.
- Young people might have more strength. Moving will require your movers to lift and move heavy items and young people will be able to do it for longer periods of time than the older ones. Your move will be over sooner.
- They are easy to communicate with and will respect your wishes. In case you have something that needs to be moved extra carefully, you might be better off with the younger movers by you. That is because they will be much more careful at all times.
Cons of younger moving crews
If you choose the younger moving crews to assist you, the only thing that will be missing is the experience. And that is not that bad at all. They might have a problem that they never faced before mid-move, but they will surely overcome it in no time. Older workers got the experience this way, so the young ones will do the same. You just need to let them handle it and it will be fine. If you need the most experienced expert movers Massachusetts has to offer, you might want to hire older crews. But for everything else, young crews are great as well.
Younger moving crews have many benefits and you should really consider getting help from them. It will probably be an awesome experience and a thing you will do again if you need moving help. All you have to do is relax and everything will be just fine. Younger movers will be grateful you allowed them to assist you. You will have an awesome moving experience in no time.

Today I thought I'd post some more photos from my trip to Mexico, specifically from a couple of the shops that I fell in love with. Then tomorrow I'll show you all the stuff I managed to cram in my 1 suitcase.
This first shop located in downtown Puerto Vallarta is called Origenes – David Luna. It was BEOOOOOOTIFUL. Tons of incredible rustic, earthy furniture from Mexico and elsewhere that I could have furnished an entire home with. To die for. And none of it fit in my suitcase. If you're in Puerto Vallarta, you must check it out for the eye candy factor. Bring a shipping container with you. 🙂 (Their website includes details of the locations of their 4 shops and interior design projects).
I wish I could go back to Puerta Vallerta just to go to this shop! Your images really captured the coloring and design of the objects in the store!
I actually shopped here and at a shop called El Sofa 58 often on trips to my vacation pad in PVR from Sydney and believe it or not the shipping is worth it. Sure we have to be careful about the wood products getting held up in customs down here, but many of the shops there in PVR ship to Australia more often than you'd believe. Gorgeous photos!
I have been to this same store. We were just there back in February. I loved it as well. Thanks for sharing your pics!
So much to love….the mirror is amazing.
I love the hanging lamps (?) in the second picture. So dreamy. I would have gone into sensory overload there! I'm dying to see what you brought home! I'm sure it will fit great in your place since you've been doing the ethnic chic thing.
Beautiful things! Wish I had seen your recommendations before I went back in December!
what an original item that shell tray is!
The white lampshades, the cane lampshades, the leather chairs. Yrs a container full please.

If you are visiting Casa Susegad for the first time, you will probably need instructions for the last mile…
Loutolim village has two 'landmarks' – Bigfoot (tourist attraction of Goan Life) and the rather majestic church at the other end of the village. If you are hard against the front left corner of the church, there is a little lane on the left side of the road which is signposted 'Pilar Sisters' and 'Don Bosco' and has a speedbreaker near the junction. Take this lane as far as the Pilar Sisters (a big two-storey white mansion) where you will be tempted to follow the road right towards Don Bosco. Don't! Stay left and pass in front of this Casa and continue round a couple of corners and you'll be passing a row of four Indo-Portuguese Casas on your left in various states of repair. Casa Susegad is the last and largest of these, painted Jodhpur blue. The dogs will no-doubt race loudly to the gate to meet you and one of the staff will arrive shortly after them to open the gates and greet you properly!

"Why do you even want to go anywhere by yourself?" A voice crackled over the phone.
"I love taking vacations by myself. It's incredible. Why don't you try it sometime?" I responded.
"It just sounds boring. What are you gonna do?"
"Anything and everything I want", I replied.
"I just don't get it."
My friends and family, for about two years now, have been wondering why, every January, I decide to go on vacation by myself.
They wonder why for the past 24 months, I've taken my vacations from my life as a single dad and a business owner, to travel all over the USA by myself, meeting great people and experiencing life first hand with my own eyes.
They wonder, many times out loud, what possible good could come from a man traveling by himself to witness the world, the people, and the places that make the inhabitants of said destinations proud to call them home.
As I hung up the phone, I had to sit back and understand that some people will just not get it.
Some people will never want to go on a trip by themselves, let alone to new places.
Some folks can't even be in a room alone for a few minutes, let alone be on a plane, renting a car or getting an Uber or Lyft, and just driving to a place they've never been.
It terrifies people to be around all things new. They cling to their comfort zones with such ferocity that there's no chance they would ever leave that bubble, always clinging to their worlds, petrified to leave the sanctity of a miserable, mundane life just to say they're safe and sound.
Comfort zones, while seemingly helpful, can turn anyone into a scared little child. We yearn for the world we can control, with no surprises, and robotic consistency. Because it's safe. But it isn't.
And after my divorce, it's exactly the reason why I decided to leave the comfort zone for the wonders of the world beyond, regardless of what they might be.
How It Started
Comfort zones for me, when I was younger, were a steady diet. I had to have them and I seldom left them. And when I did leave them, I was petrified to do so, resulting in prolonged periods where I would just stay in the only place I knew, to try and make it another comfort zone.
No where was this more apparent than when I went to college. It was the first time I was in a new place, where I didn't know anyone, and I was terrified to talk to anyone. For the entire first semester of my freshman year, I stayed in my dorm room with a shitty roommate, who afterwards left because we couldn't get along.
So for the rest of the first semester, I left my dorm room for class. That was it. I didn't even eat in the cafeteria because I was so terrified of the world. I would warm up stuff in my microwave in my room and eat small meals.
I lost a ton of weight because I wasn't eating. I knew something was wrong with me. It was a miserable existence, with trips home on a shuttle to my family wondering if I had major psychological issues to overcome.
The simple yet complicated point was that I was so ensconced in my comfort zone, I would do anything to keep it. To the hardest line I could. Limited contact with anyone. Head down, eyes averted, no small talk.
It wasn't the best time.
I eventually got out of my shell in college with the help of a new roommate who was more social and helped me get out of my rut quite quickly. The guy was an alpha chad (literally named Chad) who would pull girls in and had a collection of undergarments that stretched the entire 150 feet of our dorm wing. I can't say enough about what he did for me, allowing me to see the college life I had yearned for, but never had the courage to go out and get. And I really never did either. Most of my college life I seldom dated, kept a small group of friends, and regardless of how much I thought I was getting out in the world, still held to the comfort zone I knew and wanted no matter what. I graduated and got my own apartment, and my comfort zone came with me.
My apartment life consisted of going to work, hanging playing video games with my two best friends, and occasionally drinking with my college buddies.
Then, in 2003, I started to come out of my shell again. One of my friends got a new boat and I saw it as an opportunity to try something new. I had never really been on a speed boat before, and after he invited me for the first time, I decided to put myself on a new path towards slowly but surely getting out of my comfort zone.
So every time he invited me, I went. I didn't care how much is pained me to go outside, I just knew that getting out was the way to go. And it was a great summer. The summer of 2003 gave me my first real taste of what life could be like outside of my comfort zone. I would meet girls (still was really shy and didn't date), hang with new friends, and get plenty of exercise and vitamin D.
But it all ended after I met the woman that would become my ex-wife.
It wasn't that she set me back, it's just that finally, mercifully, I met a woman who wanted to be in the same room with me. Through eHarmony, I decided to use my new found confidence to try and land a mate, even though I admittedly had more work to do. But at 27, I wasn't getting any younger and the constant barrage of my family wanting me to "settle down" was reason enough to try and find a woman.
And the woman I met was VERY introverted. So with her at my side, I went back to the comfort of the zone. Because it was where I was supposed to be. It kept coming back to me and saying, "you need to be in the zone, you like it there, and it makes you feel good."
So I got to married life, raising a family, and we went on family trips. I had NEVER gone anywhere by myself, and I didn't think I ever would. Why would I need to if I was happily married?
Then, things changed again.
How It Happened
In February of 2015, I had an epiphany. It was a paradigm shift of epic proportions as I decided to leave my marriage and wife of 10 years. Why did I do it? Because the comfort zone I loved so much became a noose that was strangling me. We weren't happy in our marriage for a plethora of reasons, and we were kidding ourselves if it was going to get better.
For nearly a decade, the comfort zone of my marriage was just that. It was suffocating, not only because we didn't do anything about it, but also because I was terrified of leaving the comfort zone again. The lifelong problem I had with living in a comfort zone was becoming too depressing to overcome. And I was taking my kids and my ex with me. I had to evacuate. I had to leave and realize that my life wasn't getting any longer and living in misery wasn't helping anyone involved in my life.
I had to make a decision. The comfort zone had to go. If I was going to truly look back at my life and be happy, I had to get out of a dysfunctional marriage to finally take charge of my life.
With the decision to leave, my life became chaotic. I became more depressed and suicidal. I didn't realize how much work it would take to remove myself from a life I didn't want, but still have aspects that I needed to provide for. I had to understand that getting out of my comfort zone involved changing the rules of the comfort zone by keeping one, but allowing myself to get in and out of it when I wanted to. My kids and ex needed stability from me. My ex needed a co-parent who was on the same page and providing what he needed to. And I wasn't there.
I was still searching for the person I needed to be. A father's journey began with realizing that there had to be a JOURNEY. Or several. So I booked flights in 2019 and 2020, gassed up my car and drove, and went to find the person I was.
How It's Going
It took my first vacation alone, in 2019 to Los Angeles, CA. I went there because it was a place I know I would never visit again, but was a place I wanted to see. There were great people there that I met, enjoyed new places, and saw the world for the first time by myself.
I enjoyed the trip so much, I decided to book more. Yes, to meet women. And yes, to meet and talk to people I'd met online, and yes, to meet my Fraternity of Excellence brothers.
It was my middle finger to the comfort zone that had dogged me all my life. It was the "fuck you" to all of those people that told me my life wasn't mine, it belonged to those I provided for. It was the stick of dynamite to the world that had protected me so much that it had taken away my zest for life. I was taking it back.
It was a hammer to the mirror that those that had laughed at my journeys. I was in it to spite them as well, and my trips became a symbol of my rebellion against those family and friends who ridiculed me for wanting to live the life I wanted.
But I went too far. I was traveling more and more and my kids and family life were suffering. My kids needed me and here I was smashing my comfort zone to bits. I didn't care, until last year, after my last trip to AZ, I saw that my kids were suffering because I wasn't there.
I finally realized, after all the times I'd had, that there had to be a balance. There has to be a comfort zone, for a solid foundation, but there has to be easy access out. It can't be a prison, it has to be just another stop in your world, but one that provides consistency and stability for those that rely on you. But it also provides something else for me. It provides a launch pad to greater things, it provides a shelter for when I fail, it provides peace when I'm at war, and it provides needed pain for me to get up and get out. In short, my comfort zone these days isn't a comfort zone, but a home base for which to go out and conquer the world. A man's home is his castle.
What's To Come
What new journeys have taught me? I need more of them. But I also need to share my love for these trips with those that rely on me. My kids will be accompanying me on many of these future trips, but I also have to hold a trip, by myself, in the highest importance.
I took my yearly Florida trip this year because I needed it. I needed the time alone to refresh and recharge. I needed a free week to do nothing and do everything. I ate where and when I wanted, I went to places I wanted to, I went to beaches, driving in my convertible, I talked to the locals, I shopped, I took naps, and I had no one telling me what I needed to do, what schedule I needed to keep, nor what time I needed to be somewhere.
This is what vacation truly should be. And I can't recommend taking a vacation by yourself enough.
You need the time to connect with yourself. You need to challenge your comfort zones, you need to attack your mediocrity by experiencing new and different things. It's why I'll continue to go on trips by myself until I die.
But what's most important, is that traveling has taught me that the world isn't as bad as those who are terrified of it make it out to be. It's incredibly freeing to be able to hop on a plane, go to someplace you've never been (or a place you know well but want to experience again) and live a life away from the life you know.
You owe it to yourself to not only get out of your comfort zone, but to make it your fortification to conquering your empire. This is your life and you want to make the most of it. My way of making the most of my life is to face the world with my chest out and chin up. I'm tired of being afraid.
The best line I can ever think of for this situation is from "The World Is Not Enough" where one of the characters says: "What's the point of living if you can't feel alive?"
Ask yourself what your point of living is? Is it to be safe, or is it to feel alive? Mine is to feel alive, and I'm never looking back.

One is the culmination of the best work that hundreds of people can bring to a blockbuster theater project. The other is an underfunded labor of love. I value both equally.
As a writer, experiencing top-notch storytelling by other people is part of the gig. Movies, art, books. It's inspiring, and informative. Especially when it's so good that I can be a member of the audience and only later get out my toolbox and start picking away at how it did what it did.
But I'm just as happy that I saw our town's summer season theater production too. It was full of energy. They chose a great, well-known comedy: Born Yesterday. The performances were competent, and often quite a bit more than that.
A seat in the fourth (and back) row meant that a mere twenty feet away from me were a half-dozen people arting their hearts out. Sharing their passion and joy in their work. For the love of it.
I'm not saying that everyone responsible for Hamilton every day doesn't love what they're doing. It's that fame and success are a kind of filter, for me, and that filter changes the energy and expectations – ultimately, it's a different experience.
Real people, in the place where I live, doing something for the love of it.
Seeing love in action is definitely a balance for these times we're living through. And a cure for the isolation and energy drain that a solitary writing career creates.
Look around, look around. People all around you are arting their hearts out, showing just how much they love something.
Go out, take joy in it.
Then go back to arting your own heart out onto the page.

For Poisoning Questions or Emergencies, Call the Poison Experts at 1-800-222-1222
Sarin is a chemical nerve agent ("nerve gas") developed as a battlefield weapon. Nerve agents are liquids that vaporize easily. Sarin can be encountered as either liquid or gas (liquid sarin does not evaporate as quickly as water).
When would symptoms show? Symptoms begin within 1 minute of exposure to vapor, and up to 30 minutes after contact with the liquid form. A runny nose and tightness in the chest are among the first symptoms. Miosis (small pupil) and dimmed vision follows. Nausea and vomiting are likely, and may be the first symptom after liquid contact. Loss of consciousness and seizure can occur within the first minute of exposure. Confusion or hallucinations are usually not associated with nerve agents.
A person exposed to sarin should be brought to a hospital immediately for decontamination and administration of antidotes. Clothing should be removed at the hospital since it may contain trapped vapor.
When would symptoms show? Following exposure the incubation period is about 12 days. Early symptoms are fever, fatigue, or head and back aches. A rash follows in 2 to 3 days. The rash starts with flat red lesions, usually on the face, arms, or legs. In the second week lesions become pus-filled and crust over.
Most patients will recover from smallpox. However, death may occur in about 30% of cases.
Smallpox is usually spread by face-to-face contact with an infected person. It spreads through infected saliva droplets. Contaminated clothing or bed linen can also spread the virus. Exposed clothing and contaminated surfaces should be cleaned with bleach and hot water.
While the Center for Disease Control has emergency stocks of smallpox vaccine, an outbreak of smallpox is not expected and the vaccine is not available through your doctor. Additional doses of vaccine are currently being manufactured. If an outbreak is expected, public announcements will be made concerning vaccinations.
Is there a way to test a building or area for smallpox contamination? Currently there are no treatments for smallpox, but research into antiviral agents is being conducted. Tests to detect smallpox in the environment are also not currently available. Various agencies are investigating environmental tests.
Vaccination and isolations will contain the spread of smallpox. Symptomatic patients should be medically isolated. People who come into contact with suspected carriers should be vaccinated and watched closely for symptoms.
Contact your local health department. The local health department will then report it to the FBI, CDC, and local law enforcement.
Symptoms typically begin 2 to 5 days after exposure. Symptoms vary, depending on the route of exposure. The three common routes are through the lungs, skin, or intestines:
Inhaled (lung) anthrax begins with symptoms similar to the flu (cough, fever, muscle aches). These symptoms may last 2 to 3 days and then may disappear for 1 to 2 days. After this time severe difficulty with breathing and shock can occur.
Cutaneous (skin) anthrax is a less threatening form, and is easily treatable with antibiotics. It begins as a raised bump. Within 1 to 2 days it develops into a blistered sore and then a painless ulcer, with a characteristic black area in the center. Lymph glands in the area near the wound may swell.
Intestinal anthrax is contracted by swallowing anthrax spores, often in contaminated meat. It begins with nausea, loss of appetite, vomiting, and fever. It is followed by abdominal pain, vomiting of blood, and severe diarrhea.
If early treatment with antibiotics is given, anthrax is usually not fatal.
Early antibiotic treatment is an important step in treatment. There are a number of different antibiotics that are effective against anthrax. These include penicillin, ciprofloxacin (Cipro), and doxycycline.
Anthrax is not spread from person to person. If a person comes into contact with an anthrax patient, there is no need for that person to receive treatment unless they also were exposed to the same source of infection.
An anthrax vaccination is a series of 6 shots over a period of 18 months, followed by yearly boosters. Physicians do not have the vaccine and cannot give it. Emergency supplies will be available in the event of a outbreak, but there currently is no need to vaccinate the public.
Antibiotics have potential health risks when they are used indiscriminately. Children are especially vulnerable. Since widespread use of antibiotics would cause more harm than good, we do not recommend that you stockpile antibiotics or use them to prevent anthrax exposure.
Do not open the piece of mail. Place it in a plastic bag and seal it shut (use tape or a ziplock bag). If the piece of mail was already opened and a suspicious material was spilled, do not clean up the spill. Leave the suspicious item where it is and leave the area. Wash your hands with soap and water. Call your local U.S. Postal Inspection Service, and they will determine if the suspicious mail is dangerous.
Pneumonic plague occurs when the bacterium Yersinia pestis infects the lungs. The first signs of illness in pneumonic plague are like the flu (fever, headache, weakness, and cough productive of bloody or watery sputum), and appear within 2 to 3 days. The pneumonia progresses over 2 to 4 days and may cause septic shock.
Person to person transmission occurs through respiratory droplets, which can only infect those who have face-to-face contact with the ill patient.
Early treatment with antibiotics is essential. Several antibiotics are effective. There is no vaccine to prevent plague, but prophylactic antibiotic treatment for 7 days will protect persons who have had face-to-face contact with infected patients.
The incubation period can be from 5 to 60 days, and usually is about 1 to 2 months. Fever, headache, weakness and fatigue are common symptoms, along with depression and mental status changes.
Brucellosis is usually not fatal.
Treatment with the drugs doxycycline and rafampin is effective. No vaccine is currently available.
Person to person transmission is unlikely. Brucellosis was first identified as a disease in goats, and ingestion of unpasteurized milk and cheese should be avoided.
Botulinum toxins are neurotoxins produced by a species of bacteria. Intoxication would commonly occur through contaminated food. An aerosol containing botulinum toxin has been developed as a battlefield weapon, and could be sprayed in the air.
In foodborne botulism, symptoms can occur as early as 6 hours or as late as 10 days. With aerosol toxin inhalation, symptoms begin within 1 to 3 days. Symptoms of botulism include double vision, blurred vision, drooping eyelids, slurred speech, difficulty swallowing, dry mouth, and muscle weakness. Untreated botulism can lead to paralysis, difficulty breathing, and death.
An anti-toxin is available from hospital Emergency Departments. Medical treatment (intubation and ventilation assistance) is necessary for advanced cases.
Botulism is not transmitted between people.

Start of Frame Construction
Today I started building the new frame for the car. I am building the main structure out of 1.9" diameter 0.130 walled tube. I bent and made the rail for one side and have it tack welded in place.
I will need to fully weld it and add a few more reinforcing points to attach it to the old unibody so it does not let the suspension mounts go out of line. Once I get it welded in solid I will turn the car up on the other side and do the whole thing over on the drivers side. I might get the base structure done this weekend if nothing else comes up for me to do.
When the base structure is done, next will be to start on the front and rear end. I will probably build the rear first since it will be easier. After the frame is done then it is on to making the new smooth floor and air ducting system.

By Jesse Wood
Nov. 1, 2012. With such a high number of unaffiliated voters registered in Watauga County, it's obvious that the unaffiliated voters will swing the election.
But how will they vote? That's the question pundits wish they could answer and one that we won't find the exact answer to until the votes are tallied next week.
But what if – and this isn't an exact science – you used the May 8 primary voter history to glean information into how an unaffiliated voter might sway – assuming that Republicans and Democrats chose their parties respective ballot.
During the primary, unaffiliated voters chose either a Republican, Democrat, Libertarian or nonpartisan ballot to vote for Amendment One/Marriage Protection Amendment and other candidates.
By subtracting the number of registered Republicans who voted from the number of Republican ballots requested, one can figure the number of unaffiliated voters that requested a Republican ballot. And this can be done with the Democrats and Libertarians, too.
The High Country Press did this using data from the N.C. State Board of Elections. On Thursday, we reviewed the unaffiliated voter history in Watauga County from the May 8 primary to figure out if unaffiliated voters lean conservative or liberal.
Here's what we found out about the 4,326 unaffiliated voters in Watauga County that voted in the May 8 primary.
- 31.3 percent requested a Republican ballot
- 30.2 percent requested a Democrat ballot
- 37.6 percent requested a nonpartisan ballot
- .9 percent requested a Libertarian ballot
- 30.5 percent requested a Democrat ballot
- 44 percent requested a Republican ballot
- 24 percent requested a nonpartisan ballot
- .1 percent requested a Libertarian ballot
- Unaffiliated: 37 percent
- Republicans: 33 percent
- Democrats: 29 percent
Here's how the 6,621,631 registered voters in North Carolina stack up**
- Democrats: 43 percent
- Republicans: 31 percent
- Unaffiliated: 26 percent
*As of Oct. 30
**As of Nov. 1

Statement of Faith
- We believe the Bible to be the inspired, infallible, authoritative Word of God and the final authority in faith and life. (2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:21).
- We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Genesis 1:1, Matthew 28:19, John 10:30)
We believe in the deity of Christ (John 10:33), His virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1:23, Luke 1:35), His sinless life (Hebrews 4:15, 7:26), His miracles (John 2:11), His vicarious and atoning death (1st Corinthians 15:3, Ephesians 1:7, Hebrews 2:9), His resurrection ( John 11:25, 1st Corinthians 15:4), His ascension to the right hand of God (Mark 16:19), and His personal return in power and glory (Acts 1:11, Revelations 19:11)
- We believe in the absolute necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit for salvation because of the exceeding sinfulness of human nature and that men are justified on the single ground of faith in the shed blood of Christ and that only by God's grace and through faith alone are we saved (John 3:16–19, 5:24; Romans 3:23, 5:8–9; Ephesians 2:8–10; Titus 3:5).
- We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they that are lost unto the resurrection of condemnation (John 5:28–29).
- We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 8:9, 1 Corinthians 12:12–13, Galatians 3:26–28).
- We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life (Romans 8:13–14; 1 Corinthians 3:16, 6:19-20; Ephesians 4:30, 5:18).

Are you finally ready to sell your house? Having a professional real estate agent on your side is a smart investment—not only will he help you navigate all the steps of the complex process, he can negotiate a better price and help you avoid expensive mistakes.
But not all agents are equally effective. In order to make sure you're getting someone who will ultimately help—and not hurt—you during the sale of your home, you'll want to make sure you've got someone who knows what he's doing.
Here are two common red flags that indicate a potential agent may cause you some trouble:
1. He's sloppy about pricing
Some agents just want to make the seller happy at the beginning of the process, and will initially agree to sell the home for whatever price the seller asks for. But a home that's priced too high will languish on the market. It may be ignored by "good fit" buyers because it's out of their price range, while higher-range buyers will pass over it. This can waste weeks or months of the seller's time.
An overpriced home is also a tough sell to the bank. If the appraisal of your property doesn't match the listing price, it can delay the process as well. In the end, the seller will probably have to reduce the price anyway, but will have lost a lot of valuable time in the process.
A savvy agent will be honest about the price at the outset—even if it's not exactly what the seller wants to hear. The agent will draw on market expertise to determine a realistic price that's attractive to both a buyer and the bank. But he won't price it too low either—the ultimate goal is to give you the full value of your home in the end. (Here's a helpful article that explains home pricing in more detail.)
If your potential agent is willing to talk frankly with you about your home's real value and can back their suggestions up with market statistics, that's a good sign. But if he's willing to agree to whatever number you throw out just to make you happy, it may be time to reconsider.
2. She's not sensitive to your family's timetable
Moving can be emotionally draining—especially when you have to coordinate it with your children's school schedule or with the start of a new job. While an agent isn't a miracle worker (there are, after all, a lot of variables and moving pieces when it comes to selling a home), your agent should at least understand your timetable and be willing to do what she can to move the process along. If the timetable you propose just isn't workable, she should be honest and let you know that right at the beginning.
But if a potential agent doesn't seem interested at all in your concerns about timing, that doesn't bode well for a good moving experience.
We'll continue later on this week with other red flags to watch out for. In the meantime, if you'd like to put one of The Haro Group agents to the test, give us a call or shoot us an email. We'll set up a meeting with one of our listing agents so you can see for yourself if they meet the standard!

I second that! It has the most tangible and provocative mood, with all that wetness and grey. It looks like a magical world, which Meera would feel right at home in, I'm sure! She seems to have a magical imagination and intuition. This is her landscape. : ]

Rally – Prodrive MINI Preparing to Test
Just when you thought all hope was lost of seeing a Prodrive MINI next year, Rallybuzz.com has now posted a story that is the first sign of life we have had from the project in a couple months time.

That being the dumbest rumor I have ever heard has now brought us a proof of life that the MINI project is on track. Reports are…Read More

Rally – Flash from the Past to Compete in Finland?? *UPDATE*
One of the great things the WRC has shown us the last few years is the ability for drivers to make returns for select events. For example, we had Marcus Gronholm make a cameo appearance at Rally Portugal last year and Rally Sweden this year. However not even that can top Juha Kankkunen and his attempt to run in the Rally Finland event that is coming up. The four times WRC champion is making waves in the rally world as he sits on the very edge of making a comeback…Read More

Project Description
In this project, the current highway and right of way was settling causing a significant safety concern. Our team began by rerouting 1900 feet of 12" water main, then worked to stabilize the fill and keep it from shearing off by benching out a 70' cut, bringing it back up 70' in 1-foot lifts and placing geogrid. We successfully moved 200,000 CY of dirt on a busy U.S. Highway 2.
