About Into the Wild Woods of the Soul
Long ago when people lived closer to the earth and believed in its magic, they told stories to entertain, pass the time and to convey wisdom about life, the gods and the nature of our Mother Earth. These stories, which were passed orally from generation to generation, are soul stories that contain deep and powerful insights. They are the roots of the myths, folklore, and fairy tales we know and love today and their ancient themes, archetypes and models, offer us a magical gateway to the wisdom of our ancestors and the free the flowing spirit of insight and inspiration that resides within each of us.
In my coaching and personal enrichment programs, we leverage this wisdom carried to us on the breath of the ancestors as a lens for personal development, creativity, and growth. And in my Wildwood Sisterhood community, we use this energy to hold space for an empowering and supportive environment for women, an environment that encourages magic and sisterhood and embraces the sacred power of the voice and the feminine model of the circle.
I am Martina Rutledge and I want to welcome you to Into the Wild Woods of the Soul. I am a magical leader, who weaves stories, creativity, and earth based traditions carried to us on the breath of the ancestors into her writing, teaching, and mentoring sessions. I see the Goddess in every woman and help her see that spark of the divine within herself too, because one of the saddest aspects of life in the modern world is that we have lost touch with Nature and our own nature. We have forgotten what is wild and sacred inside us and we have forgotten our own magic.

SHIPPENSBURG, Pa. - The Saint Michael's College field hockey team dropped its season opener against No. 2 Shippensburg University, 7-1, on Saturday afternoon during the Jane Goss Memorial Tournament at the Robb Sports Complex. Shippensburg qualified for nine of the last 10 NCAA Tournaments, including the past five, and is ranked by the National Field Hockey Coaches Association (NFHCA).
The Purple Knights' lone goal came from sophomore Morgan Mazanec (Shelburne, Mass./Mohawk Trail Regional), who netted a penalty stroke for her first career goal in the second half. Junior goalkeeper Jackie Chisholm (New Braintree, Mass./Quabbin Regional) tied her career high with 19 saves. Junior Shannon Rice (West River, Md./Elizabeth Seton) and sophomore Kelsie Miller (Templeton, Mass./Narragansett Regional) both made defensive saves.
The Raiders were led by senior Bre White (Hummelstown, Pa./Lower Dauphin), who had a hat trick and two assists, while first-year Charlotte Cornell (Drexel Hill, Pa./Upper Darby) scored two goals. Senior Carenna Neely (Lancaster, Pa./Penn Manor) and sophomore Taylor Webster (Enola, Pa./Cumberland Valley) each played a half in net. Neely made three saves, while Webster stopped two shots.
Miller's defensive save a little more than two minutes into the game kept the teams deadlocked before the Raiders began the scoring shortly thereafter, as White found senior Megan Jett (Bear, Del./Middletown) on the right side of the net and Jett hit the back of the net at 5:21. White was involved in each of the first five goals, including sneaking a shot through the pads of Chisholm to make it 2-0 at 8:43. Shippensburg added three more goals to take a 5-0 lead into the half, with two more by White coming at 20:35 and 27:18. Mazanec buried her penalty stroke in the 53rd minute before Cornell tacked on her two goals late in the second half.
Saint Michaels wraps up play at the Jane Goss Memorial Tournament tomorrow morning against Mansfield (Pa.) University at 10 a.m.

On 16 Feb 2018, a group of our third year students went on a trip to St George's Hall and the Terracotta Warriors Exhibition in Liverpool. We asked a few of them to reflect on their experiences. Here's what Hannah, Kate, and Jack made of the trip.
Hannah Jackson and Kate Matthews
As part of our third year of history studies at Edge Hill University, the students on the history of interpersonal violence module visited St George's Hall and the Terracotta Warriors exhibition in Liverpool. St George's Hall is a magnificent building that incorporates the arts and the law. Built in the 1800s to act as both a music hall and Liverpool's law courts the building doesn't lack uniqueness. Clearly, representative of the legal dynamic of Victorian interpersonal violence the courts, cells and apparatus for punishment were entertaining, interesting and relevant to our course. During this part of the trip, we were given a tour in which a witty tour guide gave a variety of interesting facts and information. For example, the importance of symbolism in the music hall section of St George's where Liverpool presents itself as a centre of culture, the king of the seas and a vital player in the game of Empire. The building truly is outstanding and must be visited to comprehend its grandeur. St George's Hall is now definitely on our top 10 places to visit in Liverpool.
Following this tour, our module group then visited the Terracotta Warriors exhibition in the World Museum. This was much anticipated. Arguably, one of the greatest archaeological discoveries ever made, the chance to witness, first hand, these historical objects was truly spectacular. The exhibition being in Liverpool instead of London was alone something of a phenomenon. Yet to be able to see actual Terracotta Warriors was amazing. In taking our time around the exhibition, we learnt some intriguing facts about ancient China. Things such as their different philosophical beliefs and what these meant (Daoism, Confucianism etc.) as well as learning about the Chinese fascination with immortality. I (Hannah) even took full advantage of the gift shop and bought myself a mini Terracotta Warrior who now proudly sits on my bookshelf and guards my books.
Jack Ventress
On Friday the 16th February the History of Interpersonal Violence class embarked upon a field trip to Liverpool to visit St George's Hall and the Terracotta Warriors at the World Museum. The visit to St Georges Hall was particularly interesting as it opened in 1854 and it can be described as an outstanding expression of the confidence the Victorians had regarding the city of Liverpool. Furthermore, what is particularly interesting is the fact that `St George's Hall has been the hub of culture and celebration often hosting parties whilst playing a crucial role within the criminal justice system. The Trial of Florence Maybrick in 1889 is a particularly famous trial that has taken place within the courtrooms of St George's Hall. The exhibition which showcased the China's first emperor and the Terracotta Warriors in the World Museum was also particularly fascinating. The exhibition showcased a variety of objects from one of the worlds greatest discoveries and this exhibition spans almost 1,000 years of Chinese history. What was particularly special about this part of the field trip was the fact that the exhibition showcased a number of objects which have never been in the UK before.

The next in the growing annual series of Breton offshore races - the Armen Race from La Trinité-sur-Mer - sets sail today but at the helm of the MOD70 Musandam-Oman Sail, will be Roland Jourdain, a veteran of offshore racing and – amongst other victories – a two-time winner of the Route du Rhum. Bilou, as he is better known, will stand in for Sidney Gavignet for the rest of May while he steps on to the Chinese Volvo Ocean Race entry Dongfeng for the Leg from Newport to Lisbon. Alex Pella will also continue to sail on board the MOD70 lending great depth of experience.
"Bilou is the perfect fit for Oman Sail, he really understands the Omani sailor development programme and what we are trying to achieve and he knows the MOD70s well. Musandam-Oman Sail is in good hands," said Gavignet.
"For my part, I'm excited to be returning to an event that I really enjoy and to be doing the transatlantic leg with a team that has such great spirit. There are quite a lot of similarities between Dongfeng and Oman Sail in terms of the development of sailors – we met a few of the Chinese crew in February at EFG Sailing Arabia – The Tour which they were using as a training platform."
Roland Jourdain is excited at the prospect of sailing the MOD70, but is approaching the next few weeks as custodian conservatively: "I was lucky enough to sail with the team briefly for the Tour de Belle Ile, it was a good experience and a chance to get to know everyone. The atmosphere on board is very good and I have been well briefed on the objectives while Sidney is away – the main one being for everyone to continue learning. I was pleasantly surprised at the level and the teamwork amongst the crew.
"You have to be constantly alert on the MOD70, it is a highly tuned beast, but the team already has excellent reactions so we will focus on reinforcing the fundamentals. It is going to be very interesting – I have been following Oman Sail for some time now and this national initiative is an excellent way of using sailing."
Gavignet is joining Dongfeng Race Team for leg 7 of the Volvo Ocean Race from Newport to Lisbon, taking the place of Eric Peron, who is taking a breather before the final two European legs.
"Sidney is an excellent driver," said Dongfeng Race Team skipper, Charles Caudrelier. "He's a Volvo Ocean Race expert, and I've been wanting to sail again with him for a long time. We sailed together 12 years ago and it went really well so I can only hope this leg will be just as good."
Gavignet's experiences in Leg 7, which starts on Sunday, will be watched very carefully by Oman Sail's CEO, David Graham as Oman Sail is known to contemplating a Volvo Ocean Race campaign for 2017-8.
"The movement of the Volvo Ocean Race to one-design racing has a far greater affinity with Oman Sail, our strategic plans of and its pathway to achieve them," said Graham. "We are observing the current race with great interest and in particular, the progress of the Dongfeng Race Team, given the similarities between our two entities." (You join the dots...)
Personally Gavignet is a four-time veteran of the race having competed in 1993-84 on board Eric Tabarly's maxi ketch La Poste then with ASSA ABLOY (2001-02), winners ABN AMRO One (2005-06) and PUMA Ocean Racing (2008-09).
Crew rotation has been one of the keys to Dongfeng Race Team's success: Jack Bouttell (Australian/British), competed on Leg 3, French navigator, Erwan Israel, on Leg 4 and Irish Volvo Ocean Race veteran, Damian Foxall, on Leg 5.
Elsewhere in the Volvo Ocean Race an arm infection has forced Team Brunel's bowman, Gerd-Jan Poortman, out of Leg 7. Poortman's place will be taken by the third-placed Dutch team's first reserve, Timo Hagoort (NED). Rokas Milevicius (LTU) will assume the role of bowman for Leg 7.
The infection, called elbow bursitis, is a common affliction for offshore sailors, especially bowmen. "It all started a couple of days ago. I'm taking antibiotics now," said Poortman. "According to the doctors, it's not certain that it will be cured within four days. And even if the infection is cured before the start of the next leg, I still can't use my arm on a professional sailing level. Because the next leg is very demanding from start to finish, I have decided, together with our physio (Mark Haak), and skipper Bouwe Bekking, not to participate in the this leg which will take us to Lisbon."
The popular Dutchman is confident that his stand-in will ensure his absence is not badly missed by the in-form crew, which finished with a podium third-placed finish in the last leg to Newport, Rhode Island, from Itajaí, Brazil.
"Timo is a hard worker and a fine replacement," said Poortman. "And Rokas has enough training to take on the role of first bowman."
Meanwhile, skipper Bekking is happy that Hagoort has already gained a lot of experience with the Dutch team: "I really wanted someone who had previously sailed on the boat," he explained. "And during the preparation for the Volvo Ocean Race he sailed many miles with us, so that's why the choice fell on him."
For Hagoort, who has been patiently waiting for his chance ever since joining the crew, the call-up is a dream come true: "I got a call this afternoon," he said. "When he told me that I can sail to Lisbon onboard Team Brunel, I let out a little cry of joy and immediately afterwards I asked who had to be replaced. I know Gerd-Jan very well and I learned a lot from him. Since I became the first reserve, the team has grown a lot, so I don't know exactly which role I will get, but my strengths are that I can trim and work on the foredeck."
Also on board Team Brunel - Javier de La Plaza will be replaced by Adam Minoprio for the remainder of the race, due to other sailing commitments. This is the well-known New Zealand sailors' second Volvo Ocean Race. He was trimmer and helmsman on Team Camper in 2011-12.
Minopro commented: "It's an honour that Bouwe Bekking asked me to strengthen Team Brunel. Together with the America's Cup, the Volvo Ocean Race is the summit of sailing. I think that my knowledge and skills will enable me to make a contribution to the development and performance of Team Brunel. I always go for the best result possible."
Bekking adds: "Adam has sailed in the Volvo Ocean Race before and has been match race world champion. As an experienced match racer, he could just make the difference in the last three short legs."

256 * W. C. WOODWARD lowed at all the proceedings of the old colonial assemblies in pre-revolutionary days ! It indicates clearly what the doctrine of popular sovereignty meant to Oregonians. The State Democratic platform of 1859 stated that the de- cision of the Supreme Court in the Dred Scott case was acknowledged by the Democratic party as a correct interpreta- tion of the Constitution on the question of slavery. This was a palpable evasion as there were no less than three distinct in- terpretations of that decision among the Democrats. The Douglas phase of the doctrine, that of absolute non-interven- tion, was still very generally held by the rank and file of the Oregon democracy. Many, however, were now following the lead of Lane, who maintained that slavery existed in the Ter- ritories by virtue of the Constitution and that the people of the Terrtories had no authority either to establish it or pro- hibit its introduction. Bush hence charged him with having deserted the Democratic principle of popular sovereignty and with having taken up "the quibble devised by some place-seeking demagogues, to cheat unthinking Southern extensionists." 1 Lane had merely advanced to the Buchanan or Administration interpretation, but Bush refused to recognize the latter as Dem- ocratic doctrine. The radical Democratic position was voiced by Editor O'Meara in the Standard, who declared for positive intervention by Congress for the protection of slavery in the Territories. He charged that whoever held a different doctrine was a Black Republican. He attacked Douglas for his Freeport speech doctrine, as either a demagogue or "a very thick-headed numbskull," charging him with utterances treasonable and sub- versive of the Constitution. 2 In the campaign, Lansing Stout, the Democratic candidate for Congressman, supported the Administration doctrine and even approached that of the interventionists, maintaining that the people were obliged to enact laws for the protection of slaves in the Territories. He was supported on the stump by Smith and Lane, who spent most of their time in denouncing i Statesman, editorial, "Then and Now", Nov. 22, 1859. zQuoted in Argus, May 28.

Wedding March by Mendelssohn, for Solo Trombone and Piano
Piano Accompaniment, Trombone - Intermediate - Digital Download
Composed by Felix Bartholdy Mendelssohn (1809-1847). Arranged by David McKeown. Romantic Period, Classical Period, Repertoire, Wedding, Recital. Score, Set of Parts, Solo Part. 9 pages. Published by David McKeown (S0.543958).
Item Number: S0.543958
Felix Mendelssohn's Wedding March was originally written in 1842 as incidental music to Shakespeare's famousplay, Midsummer Night's Dream. When Queen Victoria's daughter used the music for her marriage in 1858, it became instantly popular and has remained a wedding favourite ever since.
This version is arranged for Solo Trombone and Piano and the performance time is around three and a half minutes. Of course, performers, especially at weddings, may wish to abridge and shorten the arrangement. This is easily done as the different sections are self-contained and interchangeable. Repeats may also be ignored. Both the full length youtube performance and the short audio sample are from the Clarinet version off this arrangement.
The solo part is intermediate level, while the piano accompaniment suits an advanced intermediate player.Both will find this ideal for formal and informal performances, with both parts enjoying melodic interest.
Teachers will enjoy using this arrangement as a fun way to help with building dynamic range and stamina.

Insufficient local hyper-scale activity inhibiting cloud in region "There are insufficient local hyper-scale and large-scale datacenters to support cloud systems, which cause local organisations to derive cloud offering from abroad," said Peter Sondergaard, Executive Vice President and Global Head of Research at Gartner, at the recent Gartner Symposium ITxpo, in Dubai, UAE. "Moreover, latency, legal and local currency makes this option problematic and limits cloud adoption among businesses in MENA," he added. Cloud spending in the region is among the lowest in the world when measured as percentage of total IT spending. Middle East and North Africa IT spending is projected to reach $155 billion in 2018, a 3.4% increase from 2017, according to the latest forecast by Gartner. In 2018, the MENA region will exhibit its highest IT spending increase in the last three years. Spending in communication services, mobile voice and data primarily, mostly by consumers, is the segment that will largely contribute to the rise in IT spending in MENA this year. Software is projected to exhibit the strongest growth in 2018, with a 12.7% increase year over year. Software spending has also been growing at a double-digit rate, the last two years. The growth has been driven by companies pursuing new functionalities in major back-office systems like supply chain management, enterprise resource planning and customer service. The communications services segment — the largest spending segment in MENA — is growing to serve increasing demand for premium mobile phones. Communications services are expanding coverage and increasing data transfer rates while keeping prices low. The rising demand of premium mobile phones by consumers is also set to fuel growth in the devices spending segment in 2018. Issue 16 INTELLIGENT TECH CHANNELS

Christopher Dorner
In 1984 Bernie Goetz shot four black teenagers in the subway because, he concluded, they would rob him or worse. He left one man a paraplegic with permanent brain damage. The so-called "Subway Vigilante" eventually turned himself into police but not before receiving nation-wide support from segments of the public, including media outlets, who hailed him as a hero.
I admit there is a lot that I don't know about the capture of Frein, however, what I do know is that a young black man, in South Carolina, was asked to show his driver's license to an officer and was shot several times.
Americans are now eight times more likely to die in a police confrontation than they are to be killed by a terrorist.
So the cycle goes on and gives us a greater and greater number of more and more deadly weapons. To restore some sort of sanity and reduce the carnage, it will be necessary to slow this process at each corner of the triangle.
The City of Torrance reached a settlement with the registered owner of the vehicle that was driven by Mr Perdue and was damaged
The recent debate about the use of drones in warfare, and the possible use of armed drones against American citizens, reveals an interesting aspect of our attitudes about manned and unmanned machines.
Also, he said, Dorner passed up several opportunities in that time period to lodge a complaint against the training officer
Riverside County didn't announce it was offering its reward until Feb. 13, the day after the deadly standoff in the San Bernardino

|408-Smart Cities: Intelligent Transportation Infrastructure Health and Safety Condition Assessment and Management Using Sensing and AI Technologies
|发表时间:2019-05-24 阅读次数:567
主讲人:Dr. James Tsai
邀请人:肖飞鹏 教授
时间:2019年5月27日(周一)下午 13:30 ~ 15:00
Dr. James Tsai is a professor of School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Georgia Tech; he is also an adjunct professor of School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech. Dr. Tsai has received his Ph.D. and MS degrees from Georgia Tech in 1994 and 1996 respectively, and received his BS degree from National Chung Hsing University, Taiwan in 1987. Dr. Tsai's research focuses on 1) Smart Cities: Intelligent Transportation Infrastructure Asset Health Condition Assessment, Preservation, and Management, 2) New Transportation Ecosystems with Telematics and Connected/Automated Vehicles, 3) Pavement Technology, 4) Roadway Safety Analysis and Management, 5) Port/Freight Logistics, and 6) Applications of emerging sensing technologies, including 2D imaging, 3D lasers, 3D LiDAR, UAV, and smart phones, and GPS/GIS technologies with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, and 6) Big Data Analysis. Dr. Tsai has developed and successfully implemented the complex, large-scale, GIS-based, Risk-based Georgia Pavement Management System (GPAMS) for Georgia Department of Transportation to assess, preserve, and manage its 18,000 centerline miles of highway over the past 20 years. This system includes modules of computerized data collection, performance forecasting, M&R determination, a risk-based M&R project prioritization, and resource optimization. Dr. Tsai was selected as a Chinese Changjiang Scholar in 2009 in recognition of his research on applying sensor and information technology to infrastructure asset management.

Myth-Busting 101: Going on a yoga retreat
Over the several years that Exotic Yoga Retreats has been running successful travel yoga retreats around the world, our team has picked up on a few commonly touted misconceptions about yoga retreats. As we gear up for a glorious summer of sunshine, yoga, food, wine and luxury in Europe – where we run a number of much loved and quality holidays – we thought it prudent to clear the air and bust some of these yoga retreat myths.
1 | Only women go on yoga retreats.
Whilst the majority of our guests on retreats are women, it is not the case that there are only women on retreats. We frequently have male yogis and partners joining in too. This is particularly the case for our retreats over the Festive Season and New Years. In fact, in the past we have run couples retreats in glorious, romantic locations like the Greek Islands.
2 | Yoga retreats are for advanced yogis only.
This is probably the most commonly heard misconception, and it is so far from the truth. It is very normal to have people on retreats who are trying out yoga for the first time, or who have only done yoga a handful of times in their lives. It is also common for us to have people join in on our yoga holidays who are older, and less able bodied. The point is that our yoga instructors are skilled and accommodating. They are able to create a safe environment for yogis of all different levels. This means that those who are advanced and seeking to deepen their form and find new strength and poise, are accommodated for just as much as those who are building their foundations and exploring experiences for the first time.
3 | On yoga retreats you have to do several hours of yoga a day.
Yoga is fabulous for mind, body and soul – but we believe that too much yoga makes you miss out on all the other incredible experiences of life and travel. For this reason, after many years of experience, we have designed programs that have the perfect balance between yoga daily, and plenty of time to thrive in and discover the beauty of the world around. Some of our most loved retreats and holidays aredesigned for adventurous travellers – they include frequent cultural and nature excursions with expert local guides. Moreover, our yoga programs come with no strings attached – you join in when it suits you. If you wake up in a stunning suite overlooking the ocean in one of our top class luxury destinations, and fancy a lie in rather than a morning Vinyasa flow, this is completely fine and actually encouraged. We foster a 'come as you are', non-competitive vibe on yoga retreats and holidays, so you can do all the yoga sessions, or some, or none.
4 | Yoga retreats always entail fasting / detox / vegan only diets.
Whilst there are many yoga retreat organisers that do make rigid diet plans for retreats, this is not at all part of the Exotic Yoga Retreats ethos. We adore nourishing, balanced and delectable cuisines from around the world. Our handpicked locations are chosen with remarkable chefs and cuisine as a requirement. We make no rules or 'diet plans' for our guests, and all tribes, from carnivores, to gluten free, to vegan are welcome. As we select premium locations, we are able to meet your dietary requirements and ensure you get the food that makes your heart sing! Furthermore, we adore wine, and we curate experiences that include a ritual of toasting the beauty of a passing day with a glass of fine wine, or cocktail of your choice. This embrace of all things vital and divine is part of our philosophy of 'healthy hedonism'.
5 | Yoga retreats are for deep personal journeys, not something for family and friends to join in.
We believe that a yoga retreat is an opportunity to recharge your batteries, gain vitality and 'joie de vivre', explore and taste the beauty of a stunning destination, and connect with like-minded cosmopolitan people. If it is important for you to do this as a solo journey, with plenty of calming alone time, then perfect, you will find our retreats accommodating of that desire. However, our holidays and retreats are very much about having fun and connecting with people, so it is absolutely appropriate and encouraged that couples, friends and families embark on our retreats together!
6 | On a yoga retreat you are forced to adopt a certain degree of spirituals, or religious practices.

"Great truck, great salesman!!"- Dave K
I live in Victoria and drive to Duncan to check out a Ford pickup I had seen online. The salesman that I dealt with, (Wade Robinson) was very attentive and not pushy whatsoever. After test driving the truck I went up to see I noticed another truck on the lot that parked my interest. After a test drive, some negotiations along with some added bonus incentives with Wade and his Manager Ryan, we came to an agreement I was very happy with. I drove back to Victoria in comfort and style and continue to enjoy my truck immensely. I have already, and will continue to recommend Island Ford, and my salesman Wade, to freinds and family alike !!Read More

"Enjoyable experience with Boris"- Jim
On my new F 150 I had some mudflaps installed along with some changes done to my outside rear view mirrors. I found Boris to be very helpful, friendly and a great guy to deal with.

"Great Experience "- Mla2019
Highly recommend John Nault and Island Ford! We happened to stop by to browse after we had a bad experience at another dealership. He turned our day around by not being pushy and was honest throughout. He made sure that both our budget and family were in mind. They all were very accommodating as we had our young kids with us and went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable. They made sure to go over all the details of all aspects of buying it so we knew all the features and facts. We now are proud owners of a Ford Edge that will be safe and reliable for our young family and can't thank them all enough!Read More

"Island Ford is THE BEST"- RaeAberdeen
I don't know where to begin my gratitude for my experience at Island Ford. I live on the mainland and followed Sales Manager Ryan Leverette over from New Westminster because of the excellent service I had from him in the past. I knew I was getting taken care of by making the trip over after Ryan spent months lining up the right Explorer for me back and forth patiently through email. When my family arrived at Island Ford little did I know Ryan would have his team taking care of us and going out of there way to make us all feel like part of their family. Ryan had me lined up with Keegan Harvey from Sales and I couldn't give him less than PERFECT for his service. More so, for him going out of his way to take care of my family and attend to my wife while I was talking to finance. He even offered to watch our kids and let my wife have a break. Keegan's knowledge and attention to details while showing me my new Ford was on point and relaxed, I couldn't be more happier for meeting Keegan. I even forgot my garage door opener and sunglasses in my trade in vehicle and he had them in the mail the next day. Keegan is amazing. If you're reading this and thinking about Island Ford make sure you find Keegan and he will take care of you. Ryan also had me taken care from Mitzi Mogden in finance. She is THE BEST. She went out of her way as well calling Ford Corporate and saving money left right and center! She will take care of you too. One of the best things too about Ryan and Island Ford team is that they paid my way over on the ferry. So if you're thinking of buying from them over on the mainland definitely let them know and they'll help you out. Like I mentioned before, I had followed Ryan over from the mainland because of his amazing service to me from 3 years ago, but little did I know when I arrived at Island Ford his team of Keegan and Mitzi would treat me like a VIP customer. I HIGHLY recommend Island Ford 100%. Hand down. THE BEST. Also, they have ROUGH F-150's. Exactly. Go over and see Island Ford! You'll be happy you did.Read More

"Vehicle Buying Experience "- Roush1
I want to share my truck buying experience with you all. The buying process was absolutely amazing. The sales staff, especially Amado was so easy and patient to deal with. The finance department and sales management staff went out of their way to make us comfortable and ensure a no pressure sale forum. I have to say it was probably the best buying experience I've had yet and I've probably bought 15-20 vehicles through ford. Do yourself a favour if you're buying a new vehicle. Go see these guys, you won't regret it.Read More

Blindfolded teen crashes car during 'Bird Box' challenge
A blindfolded teenager in the US state of Utah crashed a car while doing the Bird Box challenge – a social media craze that borrows its name from a Netflix horror flick
The film sees Sandra Bullock traversing a world going to hell as people, at the sight of an ominous supernatural entity, go into a straight-faced trance and begin committing suicide. The solution? Wearing blindfolds at all times – the element borrowed by the 17-year-old involved in the accident.
The Bird Box challenge craze sees people don blindfolds as they complete tasks, similarly to how Bullock's character had to go about her life in the film.
Spoiler alert: driving blindfolded doesn't end well, in case the title hadn't given it away.
The driver, with a beanie hat pulled over her eyes, took to the highway. She soon found herself on the wrong side of it, colliding with an oncoming car, a wall and a street lamp.
The stupidity of the challenge cannot be overstated and thankfully, all parties placed to comment are emphasising that stupidity. Travis Lyman of Layton police, the local department that had to deal with the aftermath, commented: "Honestly, I'm almost embarrassed to have to say 'Don't drive with your eyes covered', but you know apparently we do have to say that.
"The stakes are just so high and it's just such a potentially dangerous thing as it is: to try and do it in that way is inexcusable. It really puts everybody at risk."
Can't believe I have to say this, but: PLEASE DO NOT HURT YOURSELVES WITH THIS BIRD BOX CHALLENGE. We don't know how this started, and we appreciate the love, but Boy and Girl have just one wish for 2019 and it is that you not end up in the hospital due to memes.
— Netflix US (@netflix) January 2, 2019
Netflix itself was similarly critical, appreciating the love but decrying any unsafe activities related to the streaming service smash hit.
That the film has struck a chord such that it's inspired this challenge shouldn't come as a surprise. It sits proudly with the biggest first week yet for an original Netflix film.
Needless to say, it's to be enjoyed from the comfort and safety of your sofa or bed. There's no need to borrow elements from it and put oneself at risk for the sake of a social media fad.

According to 13 Experienced Speakers
Published in Inc.com Published on: Jan 18, 2017
By Minda Zetlin Co-author, 'The Geek Gap'
Negative feedback or bad review? Do this first.
It's happened to all of us. You've given a presentation, written an article, or launched a new product. And a customer, reader, or audience member tells you that you missed the mark. Your presentation fell flat, or your product just isn't what they wanted. What's the best way to respond?
To find out, bloggers at the infographic creation company Venngage asked 57 speakers at last year's Inbound marketing conference what they do when they received negative feedback. Their answers are diverse and insightful. You can find the full list here. These are some of the best:
1. Listen.
First of all, it's important to listen to all negative feedback and to make sure the source of the feedback knows you're listening. "Often, when people are upset, they just want to feel heard," observes Jack Jostes, president of Ramblin Jackson.
2. Ask questions.
This may or may not be possible, depending on the situation. But if it's possible (and appropriate) ask the source of the feedback for specifics and clarifications until you're sure you fully understand. "Your first impulse may be to move on from the uncomfortable moment right away, but the only way to genuinely move on is to make sure you understand what's behind it," says Meghan Keaney Anderson, VP of marketing at HubSpot. "Get the feedback to a less generalized and more actionable place. That way you can actually do something about it."
3. Say thank you.
This is so simple and yet so powerful. Even if someone has ripped into you, some version of "Thank you for sharing," is appropriate in almost any situation. If someone is being negative in a spiteful way, then thanking them for their feedback gives you the moral high ground. If they really are trying to help you or are expressing a heartfelt opinion, then you really should be grateful because at the very least they've taken the time and effort to engage with you when it would be so much simpler to just go on with their lives. And they may have given you information that can help you improve your presentation or product in the future.
"The only real response you need to make is 'thanks'–and then to try to take on board what the person said and how it can help you," says Doug Kessler, co-founder of Velocity.
4. Don't take it personally.
This is easier said than done, of course. But if you're putting your work out into the world, you will inevitably encounter negative feedback and it's important not to let it derail you.
"After I dust off my bruised ego I realize that the only way I am going to get better is to take constructive feedback and realize that there is always room for improvement," says motivational speaker Bryn Drescher. "I also remind myself is that you cannot please everyone no matter what you do, so be open to feedback but don't take it so personally it cripples you and your message."
5. Take time to cool off.
You're best off not responding to negative feedback (even in your own mind) when you first hear it. "One of the best pieces of advice I was given about dealing with negative feedback is to wait 24 hours before reacting," says Rachel Sprung, senior manager, growth marketing at HubSpot. "During that time you can really dig into the feedback and figure out where it is coming from and what it means. You will also figure out how to calm down if you were upset or caught off guard by hearing the negative feedback."
Of course, sometimes a 24-hour cooling off period isn't good enough. So Kristen Craft, director of business development at Wistia recommends writing down the negative feedback, and then revisiting in in a month, after you've gotten over your initial emotional reaction. "The first time you think about it, you're hurt," she explains. "The second time you think about it, you're like, 'OK, I see where it's coming from.' The third time you know how to respond to it. The act of writing it down lets you process it and reflect on it."
6. Consider the source.
Many of the speakers say they look at the source when deciding whether to act on negative feedback or just shrug it off. Does the person offering the feedback have the right kind of expertise? And what is his or her motivation?
"Unless it's from someone I know well and trust, I find that most people who give negative feedback do it out of jealousy or because they're pissed off that you are the center of attention and they aren't," notes motivational speaker Warren Greshes.
7. Use it as an opportunity to learn.
"I thrive on negative feedback because you can learn much more from it," says Ja-Nae Duane, author of The Startup Equation. "Whether it is identifying if your message resonates with your audience or if someone didn't like your dress, these types of feedback always come with the story of 'why.' And when you learn the reason why someone didn't care for you or your work, then you know if you are hitting your mark."
8. Look for the gap between what you intended and what they heard.
Very often, negative feedback is the result of miscommunication in some form, many of the speakers report. When negative feedback seems wrong, "I consider whether I simply disagree with the person who delivered the feedback or if they have the wrong perception," says Debbie Farese, director of marketing at HubSpot. "If the latter, there may be things I should do to shift their misconceptions and/or make sure others aren't misled in the future."
9. Look for the wisdom of the crowd.
You don't need to fixate on every single criticism, but you do need to remember that we live in an age where companies ignore customer viewpoints at their peril. "Embracing negative feedback is akin to hiring the hackers," says Chester Branch, Ph.D., transmedia architect at MediaShift. "Often the end-user/fan understands the product better than the initial manufacturer. We must accept that we live in a crowd-sourced prosumer movement where the consumer is also part producer."
10. Use it to improve your own feedback.
"I would start by saying what can I learn from this and sometimes what we can learn is how to give better feedback to other people," says speaking coach Alexia Vernon.
11. Respond–if appropriate–but run your response by someone else first.
"For local businesses who receive negative reviews, I always recommend that they respond," Jostes says. "If you know the person who posted a review, try calling them to see what their experience was and how you can make it up to them."
Otherwise, he advises, "Post a reply to the review. Do your best not to be defensive. Have someone else proofread your review to make sure there isn't a negative tone."
12. Balance bad with good.
For evolutionary reasons, the human brain tends to focus on the negative rather than the positive. So fight that tendency by making sure to pay attention to compliments as well as criticisms.
"I work hard at managing both good and bad feedback," says keynote speaker Brian Fanzo. "If I'm gonna spend 10 minutes analyzing and being frustrated at one bad comment or tweet or engagement, I need to make sure I spend an equal amount of time on good comments and engagement. Ideally I understand we can't please everyone but too often we spend 15 minutes analyzing bad feedback and less than 30 seconds on the good."
13. And then let it go.
Being able to let go of negative feedback is an important skill, many speakers stressed. "When I am given negative feedback I try to follow the two-step process of reflect and flush," says sales trainer David Hoffeld. "I first ask myself, what I can learn from the feedback? What's the lesson? Should I make a change? Then, once I've decided on what I am going to do, I mentally flush the feedback. I don't want to dwell on anything negative. So, once I have a plan of action, I'm done with thinking about the feedback and I will refocus my mind on something else and move on."
That may be the smartest advice of all.
