About Lauren
Lauren's love for performing began at three years old when she attended her first dance class at the Elisabeth School of Dance in Hayes, Middlesex. She was taught by Lisa Shattock who gave her lessons in every single style of dance and a fantastic starting guide to the dance world. Lauren stayed training with Lisa until the age of 16 when she then went on to train professionally at Laine Theatre Arts, graduating with her National Diploma in Musical Theatre (TRINITY, London).
During her time at Laine's she taught at their annual summer school helping in the musical theatre department which gave her a great insight into different teaching techniques and ideas she could carry into her own teaching.
In the 3 years she was training she also set up weekly musical theatre workshops at Suzanne's School of Dance in Ickenham where she met some amazingly talented students who have now gone on to train professionally at various prestigious colleges including Italia Conti, Tring and Urdang.
Most recently, Lauren played the role of Dale Tremont in Top Hat. Prior to this she played Liz Holt in Drew McOnie's Strictly Ballroom in Toronto and West Yorkshire Playhouse.

It's that time of the year where bloggers write about New Year's Resolutions, New Year's "Goals", having an inspirational "Word of the Year" - anything that has to do with setting some kind of intension to live out for the following year. And while people like to say that you can start over ANY day, there is something special and fresh about a new year - month 1, day 1. It feels good to make a plans even if it doesn't pan out the way you expect, the point is the start of a new year is a good time to feel hopeful and optimistic.
I started 2018 doing the 40 Days to Personal Revolution challenge at the yoga studio. I'll be doing that again this year. I wasn't going to so close after Yoga Teacher Training but I changed my mind. I thought I need a break from the journaling and self-inquiry but it's just an excuse to avoid doing the work of self-improvement. I love going through my Instagram feed and seeing so many other yoga studios also starting the 40 Day challenge this month so it feels like being a part of something bigger and it's really cool. If you're curious, you can do the challenge on your own with your own copy of 40 Days to Personal Revolution by Baron Baptiste.
I digress…..
Self-improvement doesn't always feel good and fuzzy. It can get heavy, ugly, uncomfortable, you want to change the subject and think about something else, but that is where the progress comes in. Sometimes you got to go through the shit just to come out on the other side lighter. I don't have any big plans for 2019 but I got this SWEET Make Shit Happen 2019 Planner from Meraki Printing. It's more than just a planner but a journal with monthly prompts and reflection.
In addition to the 40 Days, January also includes:
Taking my first Baptiste Yoga training - Baptiste Assisting Course
Joining the Assisting Team at Firefly Yoga
Beginning my mentorship at Firefly Yoga
Teaching my first Community Class!!!
When I started 2018, I had NO IDEA that I would end it completing Yoga Teacher Training, not a clue! I didn't decide to pursue Yoga Teacher Training until the Spring. It was through the 40 Days program that I shifted my thinking - less waiting and delaying. No more excuses not taking that big step and just go for it! In the new year I want to keep being open to new possibility and discovery, and less "Should of, could of….".
I look forward to learning, growing, trying new things, working with others doing what I love, going to new places, meeting new people, sharing more yoga love, and making the most of whatever opportunities come my way. ❤ How about you?

The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga combines the slim stylings of the best ultrabooks, the capabilities of well-made business-class laptops and the versatility of a 2-in-1 convertible design. With a slim and rugged design, solid general performance, and the addition of tablet functionality and included stylus, the ThinkPad X1 Yoga is the work laptop you want when you need more than just any business notebook.
Lenovo ThinkPad X1 YogaBest Business Laptop
The Verdict
The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga is a good business laptop with the added edge of a convertible design and long battery life for use on the move.
The ThinkPad X1 Yoga is outfitted with an Intel Core i5-6200U processor – the same dual-core 2.3GHz CPU found in many of the current business laptops in our review. It's paired with 8GB of RAM, a combination that yielded passable overall performance. The Yoga scored 6,408 points in Geekbench 3 and completed the Laptop Mag Spreadsheet Test in five minutes 17 seconds, lagging slightly behind the category average and earning a B-minus for overall performance. While it should do just fine for day-to-day office use, you can upgrade both the processor and the memory, up to an Intel Core i7-6600U and 16GB of RAM, for more power and speed.
The laptop uses Intel HD Graphics 520, with no other graphics solution available. In our 3DMark Pro graphics testing, the laptop scored 18,431 points in Ice Storm Unlimited but only 864 points in the more demanding and GPU-friendly Fire Strike. Overall graphics performance earns a C-minus rating. That's sufficient for all of your regular visual demands, like streaming video and putting together presentations, but for more demanding work, such as editing video, you want a system with a dedicated graphics card.
The laptop comes standard with Windows 10 Pro, but other operating systems are also available, with Windows 10 Home and Windows 7 Pro both available at time of purchase.
Our review unit came with a 256GB solid-state drive, though it's also available with a smaller 128GB drive or a larger 512GB drive. The smaller 128GB drive may do the trick if you don't need a lot of storage space – with Windows installed you only have about 100GB of storage free – but the 256GB configuration should do quite well.
As part of Lenovo's ThinkPad X1 line, the Yoga features some of the same choice elements as the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon, with a carbon-fiber lid and magnesium chassis. The result is extremely thin and light, measuring just 0.66 x 13.11 x 9.01 inches and weighing a mere 2.8 pounds. Any laptop under the 3-pound mark is especially portable, but the Yoga adds extra usability on the go with a convertible design.
The Yoga's 360-degree hinge – a staple of Lenovo's Yoga laptops – lets you use it as a laptop, fold it back around for use as a tablet or prop it up in tent or display modes. The ThinkPad model also gets a unique keyboard that has a raising deck, coming up flush with the tops of the keys when folded into tablet mode. This dynamic feature makes it more comfortable to hold as a tablet with no clicking keys, but it also helps to protect the keyboard when laid keyboard-side down onto a desk or other surface.
The spill-resistant chiclet keyboard is fairly good, with a TrackPoint pointer in the center of the keys. The accompanying touchpad offers gesture support and has clickable zones in the bottom right and left corners. Along the top, between the touchpad and the keyboard, are three additional buttons for use with the trackpoint: right and left click and a dedicated scroll button in between.
For more intuitive and precise tablet use, it also comes with a rechargeable stylus, which stores and charges in a built-in slot on the right-hand side of the laptop. The slim stylus charges quickly, with Lenovo claiming 100 minutes of stylus use after just 15 seconds of charging.
In our battery testing, the ThinkPad X1 Yoga lasted more than 10 hours in a test that simulates continuous browsing over Wi-Fi. With that sort of battery life, you can take the laptop with you for a full workday and never worry about charging it or take it on a cross-country flight without having to bring the power adapter in your carry on.
With the convertible design, the laptop's touchscreen is a no brainer, but it's a feature that Lenovo doesn't offer on some of its more traditional business laptops. Our review unit came with a 1920 x 1080-resolution panel in the 14-inch display, but you can also configure it with a higher-resolution 2560 x 1440 option. In our testing, the display brightness measured at 290 nits, and color accuracy was quite good, with a DeltaE rating of 4.5.
On the right of the laptop you'll find two USB 3.0 ports and an HDMI port. On the left is a third USB 3.0 port, a mini DisplayPort and a connector for Lenovo's Onelink dock. An integrated fingerprint reader offers secure logins with a tap. On the back of the system on the hinge is a covered compartment with a SIM-card slot for optional mobile broadband and a microSD card slot. The compartment placement is irritatingly inconvenient, and the use of microSD leaves anyone with a full-size SD card out of luck without a separate USB adapter. For wireless connectivity, the Yoga has 802.11ac dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
Lenovo covers the ThinkPad X1 Yoga with a standard one-year warranty, with extensions available to take that coverage out to two or three years, for a fee. Included in the warranty coverage is free phone support and remote access to let distant support personnel fix things on your system directly. Lenovo ranked fifth out of 10 in Laptop Mag's independent evaluation of tech support services and earned praise for things like scheduled callback on support calls and numerous manuals and helpful materials available through its website.
The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga is a versatile 2-in-1 laptop for the business set, offering a solid professional laptop and highly portable tablet PC in equal measure. The result is a capable work machine that lets you do more in more places.
Lenovo ThinkPad X1 YogaBest Business Laptop
The Verdict
The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga is a good business laptop with the added edge of a convertible design and long battery life for use on the move.

tipis by Tom Gilleon
Recently at "The Russell" suite of auctions and showrooms that occupies Great Falls in this week every year, a video animation displayed via a flat screen player hanging on the wall was sold as a "painting" for $225,000 It was created by using a program called "PixOils," by Tom Gilleon, known for his "eternal triangle" endless series of paintings of iconic tipis in romantic natural settings. Gilleon once worked for Disney.
Animated art by Tom Gilleon. That's Tom.
Whether this new art form is better or worse than what Rembrandt did sort of relates to what you think about the sentimental greeting card art of Thomas Kinkade who built a sales empire on pretty little cottages or maybe the video greeting card art of Jacquie Lawson with her big dogs and little birds. If you google popular art about cottages, you'll see a thriving genre with a certain amount of variation but not too much. If you think of Gilleon tipis as "Plains Indian Cottages", you wouldn't be far wrong. There's a fascinating discussion of Kinkade's art at http://www.firstthings.com/web-exclusives/2010/06/thomas-kinkades-cottage-fantasy I do not think that the comments about Kinkade are exactly relevant to Gilleon, but they are suggestive.
by Thomas Kinkade
Animated video images are a hat trick not much different than the latest innovation in sculpture, which is laser-guided reconstruction of actual objects on whatever scale and in whatever medium is desired. But then what happens to the concept of the artist? The idea of seeing through another person's eyes and skills is still there, but so dependent on technology that it loses some of the magic. Doesn't it? Maybe not.
Basic to the child's impulse to create is the manipulation of a squishy substance into a depiction of some kind, if only rolling out plastilene snakes. Many a rural child has found a deposit of clay, perhaps along a river bank, and used it to make little figures, maybe of animals (usually lying down or standing in tall grass so legs are not visible, since it takes a certain amount of skill to create a functional armature of wire or sticks in legs so the creature won't collapse).
"The Right of Way" by Earl Heikka
Later some people discover paper mache -- or "papier maché" because if it's in French it's more artistic in many minds. This may be as simple as newspaper smeared with flour-and-water glue, or it might be the wood fibre reduced to bits that's used, for instance, in taxidermy. Something similar was "marblex", an air-dry clay, which was used by Earl Heikka over wire and fibre armatures. Usually treated as mixed-media because bits of string or metal are included, the figures are generally painted realistically. Since they are fragile, even in the process of construction, and require much experience to use without shrinkage and loss of integrity, they are usually displayed under glass. They are very difficult to reproduce in bronze, since mold-making generally damages if not destroys them. Certainly, the charming effects of the color and details are usually lost, which can reveal poor composition and proportion.
The point of a mold is to allow reproduction. In the early days of Euro-style sculpture, most creations were cut in marble, particularly a white stone found in Carrera, Italy. Using the skills of woodcutters, or in fact of any kind of carving whether in materials soft or hard, the figure is revealed by cutting away what is not wanted. From origins in sedimentation of tiny sea creatures, marble is metamorphized from softer limestone and plaster. A block of plaster, and likewise a block of wax, could be carved in the same way, but the fact that wax melts and melds means that wax is almost infinitely malleable. Charlie Russell is said to have kept a wad of wax in his pocket which he obsessively transformed from one animal into another: a cow, a pig, a bear or even a person. This sort of working with something by manipulating it is called "haptic." Hands on.
Plaster has different qualities. When it is powdered and baked to get molecular water out of it, it can be mixed with new water -- and perhaps other inclusions -- and will stay liquid for a little while until chemical reactions cause it to turn into a solid again. The kind of "plaster" can vary from near-stone to a solid so soft that it can be incised by a fingernail. And its qualities make it ideal for casting: that is, to be put into a mold in liquid form, let set up, and then removed as shaped by the mold. A mold can be made of anything that will separate from the plaster and the separation is often helped by using some kind of liquid, maybe something as simple as dish soap. Molds are often made of something flexible so that they won't get hung up by overhangs in the castings.
Wax can be used in molds just like plaster. But molds might also be made from solid objects, maybe plaster or maybe something else like wax. It's possible to model something in water-based clay or oil-based clay (plastilene), make a mold of it, then pour in plaster or wax which will set up and create a new version. To some people, the realization that duplication is possible in this way is a mechanical addition that makes the object "lesser" because it is no longer unique -- it is multiple. To other people, the process of making duplicates -- whether carving a new version of a marble bust through measuring and careful observation or creating a series of bronze castings through the use of molds -- simply adds another dimension of skill and therefore value.
Plaster casting of marble bust of George Washington by Houdon
The great shift in sculpture from marble to bronze (stone-cutting based in Italy to foundries based in France) happened roughly coincidentally with the American Revolution. The impulse to immortalize heroes in an age preceding photography began with Houdon's busts and gradually continued through Beaux Arts Paris-trained sculptors from America. By the time of the Civil War, marble was out of fashion -- bronze was the thing. Thus do the materials, techniques and impulses of art weave in and out through the value and actual creative skill of the artists.
Blake the Woodcarver's "Hungry Horse"
Scriver's Breyer horse
While completing an MA in Chicago at Vandercook School of Music, Scriver went searching for a material to make antlers that would survive a certain amount of handling. He found a material called P-300, a combination of kaolin and latex that was liquid but set-up into a material that had a little forgiving spring to it, so it would return to the same shape. It was cast flat in a plaster mold, but with a little heat could be formed into the curves of antlers. In those days latex was the main material used for flexible molds, so Scriver was used to it. The antlers, once formed, were attached to the plaster animals, which were then painted with lacquer from an airbrush. The result was a little "slick" and manufactured-looking, rather like china figures, but to the general population this was attractive. They sold well. Later Scriver's style worked out well for the Breyer horses, made of plastic, which had some of the qualities of Kinkade sentimental art, shiny and brightly colored.
The bison diorama from the Scriver Museum of Montana Wildlife
Two discoveries improved the manufacturing process, both of them discovered by one of Bob's students with a bent for invention and materials. (He was originally intending to animate the miniature dioramas of Montana animals that were in a room at the Scriver Museum of Montana Wildlife and are now "moth-balled" at the Montana Historical Society.) The first was what was then called "parachute cord" but now is known as bungee cord. The great advantage was that it could hold together the plaster shell that supported the flexible mold so tightly that nothing in liquid form leaked.
The second discovery was koroseal, a rubbery material that had to be heated to be liquid and poured over the figure to be molded while the sculpture sat on a vacuum table, having been carved out from inside until it was a shell that air could pass through. Koroseal came as ground up bits and was melted in a turkey roaster. It was red so it looked like jam. The stuff clung and, if spattered, burned badly. But it made excellent and durable molds that took small details, reproducing them accurately again and again. Using it was nerve-wracking and took major skill. It's a kind of synthetic rubber related to teflon.
Using koroseal molds meant that the quality of castings was much higher than those cast from latex molds -- which had been a huge improvement over the original agar-agar (gelatin) molds of the Beaux Arts foundries. Agar-agar disintegrates and both it and latex can easily distort if misaligned with the plaster shells that supported them. Koroseal is so durable that when, as Scriver's will required, the molds were taken to the dump and crushed under a bulldozer, I suspect that some survived. Destroying them would mean putting them through a grinder.
Bob Scriver
When I googled to find out more about koroseal, I was taken to a Starz series about Leonardo da Vinci, called "DaVinci's Demons". Art is a very "DaVinci" sort of thing if one goes beyond marks on paper. Digital animation, as produced by Gilleon, or technical advantages like koroseal would have appealed to da Vinci very much. But I'm not sure his subjects would be so bright and iconic as Gilleon tipis. Perhaps other CGI artists would have a darker and more "scientific" sort of vision. Perhaps they should explore "Montana Gothic" as well as "Indigenous Disney." On the other hand, dark subjects might not be so appealing to the middle-class prosperous folks who buy art. In the end, the point is to sell.

Better Half is an exploration of balance; both of the self & in our partnerships. Our outer shell is not always reflective of our inner core. Yet, that shell serves a purpose, whether of protection or distraction. Better Half aims to illustrate how our best whole comes from the marriage of separate equally important parts, and how we live with those parts blemishes and all. Balance is of the upmost importance & therefore begs the question, is there a better half?

"I was really taken by how genuine and pure they are. I've never met any group of people, in any walk of life, who are so true to themselves. It's not about money, or fame, or how they are perceived by the public or the media — it's all about the waves, and a love of the sport. I was also fascinated by the diverse personalities, about as radical a difference as you can find, and how a single purpose brought them all together."

There seems to be an increase on the ransomware emails that are being sent. You have probably all had one and they are praying on the facts that people may visit certain adult sites, and the mails look very genuine.
They are normally along the lines of,
"You are my victim, when you were looking recently at certain adult videos, nice taste by the way, but the video was infected with malware, which allowed me to take over your camera and all your contacts, if you don't pay X amount in X time then all your contacts will see the video of you watching it"
My Mother in law got one the other day, now what amazed her was obviously she has not been visiting these site, however the email displayed part of her password which is what freaked her out.
I advised her to change her password immediately, which she did, and told her not to worry I doubt there will be a video of her watching porn sent to all her contacts as it states.
I have had several of the mails, not had any password details in there, but what I do is report the Bitcoin address, if you go to a site like https://bitcoinwhoswho.com/login.
This will allow you to look at the Wallet and see if its been reported as spam, on most it will show an empty wallet and no transactions, then you can report it. I am sure most are ignored but I am sure that many people are scared when they see the mail and pay up.
I am always interested in your thoughts so if you have any comments or feedback then please feel free to add any comments, or you can mail me here.

Senior Account Manager
Posted on September 10, 2015
Back in November 2014, we launched our new website. Kick-starting Talisman's commitment to inbound marketing strategy, our website gave us the platform we needed to showcase useful content, information, and better communicate our brand personality. But the website alone wasn't going to do everything we needed.
Inbound marketing relies not only on content but on targeted use and promotion of that content across multiple platforms. Managing that multi-platform content and monitoring audiences' interactions with it can be time-consuming. What's more, if content is managed poorly, businesses may fail to seize the opportunity that sits at the heart of all inbound marketing strategy.
What we need to learn is how and when to maximise and personalise a client's relationship with us, and turn that into a solid lead and a worthwhile ROI.
HubSpot was our answer.
Out of all the inbound marketing streamlining systems on the market, it was HubSpot that offered the most persuasive package of services and the training. We took HubSpot's Inbound Certification (which is available free), closely followed by HubSpot Certification. From there on in, we've never looked back.
Now certified HubSpot partners, HubSpot not only underpins our own business marketing but now forms a core service that we offer out to all our financial services clients.
What we learned
HubSpot certifications consist of informative videos and training documents that explain the concepts of inbound marketing. This is followed by guidance on how best to use of HubSpot's software to interpret data and plan successful inbound marketing strategies and workflows.
At the heart of that training, we identified three key truths:
1. Selling is a learning process
Turning a contact or potential lead into a client requires proactive, ongoing learning and adaptation. We need the right tools to allow us to ask the right questions and gain access to the right answers. Targeted marketing means taking the time to get to know our audience, watch their activity, learn from it, and refine our approach, our timing and our content accordingly. We have to learn what people want before we can offer them something that will win them over.
2. Nurturing relationships takes time
You can't earn trust overnight. In the same way that we need to get to know our audience and learn the best way to sell to them, they also need time to get to know us. Warmth, receptiveness and 'hot' buying behaviour will take time to build and grow as we prove to them that we understand their needs and are worth listening to. We need to be patient, earn trust rather than expect it, use the tools at our disposal well, and not rush.
3. Audiences want to be talked to, not at
Inbound marketing is about conversations, not about one-sided broadcasts. We need to give audiences opportunities to talk back to us – whether that's directly through open communication channels, or implicitly, through behaviour, responses and activity. What's more, we need to listen. If we're not prepared to adapt our strategy and approach in response to the way our audiences perceive and interact with us, we're never going to succeed.
What we gained
The journey since has been about putting all this into practice with the help of HubSpot's software.
More specifically, HubSpot has helped us to:
- Listen to what our prospects want, need and respond to
- Build personas that accurately reflect our audience
- Create personalised, dynamic content around those personas
- Plan and send emails that people will want to open and read
- Capture useful data from our most worthwhile leads
- Create interactive databases that track behaviour
- Automate our marketing through list-making and workflows
We've stuck with it because it's working. Since certifying with HubSpot at the end of last year, we've gained over 450 new leads and over 30 new marketing-qualified leads have identified themselves as more deeply engaged with our services. Our average monthly website traffic has increased by over 400% and we've just reached a milestone of over 500 followers on Twitter.
It's HubSpot that's adding value to our content. Taking us beyond good copy, HubSpot is helping us to start rewarding conversations, build credibility, invest in relationships, and, in time, turn all that into quality conversions.
And the best thing about it all is that, as a HubSpot certified marketing agency, we can do the same for you. We're able to work in partnership with you and HubSpot to better facilitate and implement smoother, easier inbound services and support for your business. If you ever need more information, we'll always be glad to talk you through it.

July 11, 2011 |Categories:
As you may have heard, athenahealth recently announced the purchase of the Point Lookout resort on Maine's Penobscot Bay, just down the road from our operations center in Belfast. I wrote a similar blog post for our athenahealth employee website that answers the critical questions, like whether or not it's dog-friendly and if this means employees no longer have to stay in a nearby motel when they are working or training in Belfast.
But many of them, like probably many of you, are asking more broadly why a cloud-based company is buying more brick and mortar. This was the toughest one for me personally.
My call is that if we are to be a national health information backbone, we are going to also be a national convener of key thinkers in health information. The market for management of health information barely exists at all, but it is the single most important missing piece to more transparent and affordable health care in the US. It needs a fertile place for idea exchange (think Davos).
I will try it out myself this September. I've been sending out invitations to entrepreneurs who have shown to be disrupters for good in health care. Each will bring one investor and one client…and we will engage in two days of radical honesty. Can't wait to see what happens!
But some are also asking how are we going to fill all those cabins and meeting rooms. Well, that's a good one too.
A few points:
- We have gained 20% MORE employees and almost 30% MORE customers EVERY year. So, even though we can't predict what our future growth will be, we expect the demand for special athenahealth gatherings to go up and up.
- In particular, a huge chunk of our new athenaClinicals clients are coming out of a BURNED software-based EHR implementation. We have a pressing need to get key physician opinion leaders together for training (and therapy!) that we never had before. Our new CMIO, Todd Rothenhaus, MD, has his work cut out for him, since he is charged with training a new cadre of American physicians that documents their care in the cloud and MAKES money doing so.
- The guy who owned Point Lookout before us had to dump it in a fire sale. That said, usage has been going up for the last three years since he bought it. In fact, we think the place may get pretty close to break-even next year on just non-athenahealth use…too bad he had to sell, he almost made it through the tunnel.
Maine is a unique venue that few people in work/life get to visit…and it is stunningly memorable when they do. I think it may end up being a great edge for entry into the world of convening people. If not, and it's a total failure (perish the thought), we can always sell it again. We already have three offers!

IT'S official. A solid majority of New Yorkers really, really doesn't like Hillary Rodham Clinton. Right now, the Easter Bunny could be competitive with Hillary Clinton if it were the only available alternative to the first lady.
Yes, Rick Lazio had a very, very good first week as the Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate. But the fact that he is now tied with Hillary Rodham Clinton testifies not so much to his skills as to her glaring weaknesses.
Some 56 percent of New Yorkers have made it clear they do not want to vote for Mrs. Clinton, whether the candidate opposing her is named Giuliani or Lazio. You might call this group a broad-based coalition of dislike.
Republicans and conservatives don't like her for the simple reason that she is a liberal Democrat. But it also appears that women – especially married white women like Hillary herself – find her unappealing. As do suburban voters. As do upstate voters.
The reason she was so aggressively recruited by Rep. Charles Rangel and others to run for the seat being vacated by Pat Moynihan was that they believed she could do better with these kinds of voters. They pursued this unconventional electoral avenue because it appeared that nobody in the state could beat Rudy Giuliani.
It looks like they outsmarted themselves.
Flash back to January 1999, just before the police shooting of Amadou Diallo. Pat Moynihan announced his decision to retire from the Senate at the conclusion of his term. Rudy Giuliani was at the height of his popularity, with an approval rating in the city above 60 percent, 14 months after receiving nearly 58 percent of the vote in his re-election bid.
According to conventional wisdom, if a Republican candidate in a statewide race can get 40 percent of the vote in the city, he wins because of the number of GOP voters in the suburbs and upstate. And in private polling, Giuliani led possible Democratic Senate candidates like Rep. Nita Lowey and Comptroller H. Carl McCall by as much as 2 to 1.
So, even though Rudy was mayor of New York and mayors have had real trouble winning statewide races in the past half-century, it looked like the Moynihan seat was his for the taking.
And then Hillary's name started floating around. This was, you'll remember, around the time that the House of Representatives voted to impeach Bill Clinton – a wildly unpopular act in New York state, where polls showed nearly 80 percent in opposition to impeachment.
The perversity of the moment was such that the president's disgrace seemed like a political asset in New York state – something that might be successfully exploited.
The Hillary candidacy was, in other words, a hail-Mary play born of desperate circumstances. The idea of a Hillary candidacy at first seemed gimmicky and absurd to most political professionals, in part because such a thing had never been contemplated before. A first lady running for Senate? And from a state in which she had never lived?
But in January 1999, John Zogby took a poll and discovered that in a head-to-head matchup, Hillary led Rudy by 11 points.
That poll was followed by others taken during the furor that gripped the city for two months following the Diallo shooting, all showing the same kind of lead for Mrs. Clinton. Those numbers certainly convinced Hillary that she had a good chance of beating Rudy – and by summer, she was off on her listening tour.
By now, she's basically been running for Senate for more than a year. She's improved as a candidate, but the natural advantages that she brought with her to the race – like the impeachment-sympathy factor – are long gone. And the insulting notion that women would support her simply because she was a famous (and wronged) woman has happily been proved false.
Still, she and the Clinton attack machine will figure out ways to injure Lazio, and he is going to go through some tough times between now and November.
But no matter what she does to him, the key question for Mrs. Clinton is: How can she convince those voters who seem determined not to vote for her under any circumstances to change their minds?
I can't think of any. More important, it appears that she can't, either.

Philippians 1:9-11 MSG
"So this is my prayer: that your love will flourish and that you will not only love much but well. Learn to love appropriately. You need to use your head and test your feelings so that your love is sincere and intelligent, not sentimental gush. Live a lover's life, circumspect and exemplary, a life Jesus will be proud of: bountiful in fruits from the soul, making Jesus Christ attractive to all, getting everyone involved in the glory and praise of God."
This podcast is a repost, originally published on January 20, 2016.
In today's scripture it tells us to live a lover's life. If there is anybody who lived that perfectly well, it is Jesus and the reason He could do that is because He was filled with the presence and the power of the Holy Spirit.
Living a lover's life is not emotional as you see in the movies.
Every kind of emotional love is temporary. This is not the kind of love that we are talking about. The love that we are talking about is that which involves our intelligence as much as our feelings.
Jesus said, "'You must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your strength, and all your mind.' And, 'Love your neighbour as yourself.'"
It's not enough that you love God with your words and actions, but you have to love God in every aspect of your life. The same goes when you are loving your neighbour, your church, your city and nation.
When you increase in your love and your heart abounds with the fruit of the Spirit and love towards God, your heart begins to make Jesus Christ attractive to everybody.
This you can achieve only by the help of the Holy Spirt and this is the kind of love that will change people around us.
Father I pray that love will invade the heart of my friend right now as we pray this morning. Thank you because today we are going to live a lover's life. We give You all the praise, the glory and honour, in Jesus' mighty name I pray. Amen!
Partner with us in our dream for revival. Your generosity goes towards supporting our initiatives to reach out, serve & transform lives.

Thank you, TE Connectivity!/
Here on the University of Michigan Solar Car team, we pride ourselves on systems excellence, and that includes our technical and operational systems.
TE Connectivity helped our team and our systems tremendously. In 2016, the Solar Car we designed, built and raced won the US national championship and, in 2017, took 2nd at the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge in the Australian Outback.
TE provided us with high voltage system connectors as well as contactors, which connect our electrical systems and activate them, respectively. This was huge in contributing to the functionality of our vehicle as we raced through the rough terrain of the Australian outback. Our car saw temperatures in the 100s, thunderstorms and very high winds along the 1,800 mile journey. Electrical safety and true automotive grade durability were paramount, to say the least.
In the outback, it is imperative that everything we have, everything we make, and everything we do works to its maximum capacity no matter what, and our high voltage systems did just that in the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge.
The contactors we received very much complemented the functionality and quality of the connectors, allowing our systems to run at their optimal efficiencies and capabilities. Our students gained tremendous insight and experience in world class Automotive and Electric Powertrain engineering working with TE professionals and TE components.
The connectors we received from TE saved us an immense amount of time on crimping, connecting, and disconnecting our high voltage components. With strong and durable physical connections from the battery to motor controllers, battery to array controls, and motor controllers to motors, our race crew could have the utmost confidence in our system efficacy and focus in on race strategy.
According to BWSC 2017 Race Crew Engineering Director Clayton Dailey, "The equipment TE Connectivity gave to the team simplified and expedited our high voltage component handling, helping us immensely during the race."
We look forward to using TE's equipment again in the upcoming 2018 American Solar Challenge as well.
With everything we do, we take a systemic point of view. Every part is crucial to the other part, and systems work in tandem to produce the best possible result. Having an efficient and well-connected high voltage system allowed us to move forward and perform to our highest potential.
And so we say Thank You to the team at TE Connectivity who have helped us and worked with us on the 2017 World Solar Challenge and more. Thank you, TE, for your support: in work and in spirit.
We are grateful to have you as an engineering partner and a Gold sponsor, and we look forward to seeing what can happen in the future!

MTashed takes you through unlocking blueprints, gathering materials, and generally optimizing your crafting in Anthem™.
Unlocking Blueprints
Using gear and weapons to complete Challenges will give you direct access to blueprints. These blueprints fall into the following rarity categories:
The Challenges you'll need to complete to unlock each blueprint will depend upon its rarity. So, for example, an Uncommon weapon blueprint may require you to kill 50 enemies, but a Rare one may require you to take out 25 elite enemies. As the rarity increases, so does the difficulty of the Challenge you'll need to complete.
If you want to unlock the best blueprints for the weapon you love, you definitely can, but until you increase your level you probably won't have access to enough embers (a by-product of the Anthem of Creation that can be found throughout the world and dictate the rarity of the item you'll craft) to use your rarer blueprints.
Gathering Materials
There are four primary ways to gather materials, detailed below.
Open-world resource gathering – locating plant and mineral resources that you can harvest or shoot to gain chimeric resources (alloys and compounds that have been altered by the Anthem of Creation used in all crafting recipes) and embers.
Taking on Challenges – daily, weekly, and monthly Challenges reward different amounts of resources and are a great source for materials. The Challenge system is also a good place to gain consumable crafting blueprints (items capable of boosting your stats for a limited time).
Salvaging – dismantling unnecessary or undesirable gear for a particular javelin will give you access to multiple parts for that javelin and an equivalent rarity-level ember. For example, if you dismantle Epic gear, you get an Epic ember.
In the Crafting Shop – this is a place to find the materials that can be purchased with earned in-game Coin. They are not available for real-world currency.
General Crafting Tips
A good place to start is by crafting gear to fill all slots with the best options possible. Another option is to craft your favorite gear multiple times until you get the best inscriptions (randomly rolled stat boosts and bonuses that can further enhance your build) possible. Remember, a well-rolled item can be drastically more powerful than a poorly rolled one. If you want to tackle higher difficulty Challenges, you'll need a weapon strong enough for the task.
Consumables fall into the same rarity levels mentioned above and require several embers to craft. They also provide powerful bonuses, and can be equipped at the following levels:
So, at level 30, just as you're facing some seriously tough endgame content, you can craft up to three consumables and apply them before entering a Stronghold. Their strength will, of course, depend upon their rarity, but even a lower level consumable can increase your offensive or defensive capabilities significantly. However, they only last for one mission so make sure that you save them for your most difficult expeditions.

Like you, avid readers, I've a pal-network that talks books during our regular chats, and when one of them says "I really liked this one," I take especial note. But when Jenny/Betsy/Laurie/Wendy etc. text me "READ THIS BOOK" that's a whole n'other level and I darn sure do.
My book-recwork inspires me to read something I may or may not have chosen, and bonus -- my pal and I can then talk the book over, extending our chat/chardonnay time even MORE! Isn't it sort of nerve-wracking when you follow up on a recommendation: "How'd you like it?" It's a vulnerable feeling to have told someone you think something is great; maybe you loved it because you were rebounding off a rotten read, or because you read the book during a rare cozy quiet evening and that affected your opinion? It is a personal step to rave about a book, and sometimes my friends have found it gush-worthy also (usually they rave right away), other times there is silence for a few too many days and you have to follow up once you know they've started. "I liked it but I didn't love it as much as you did." EEK.
My dear friend Betsy started texting me regularly as she read "A Little Life" by Hanya Yanagihara in the summer of 2015. Usually she waits 'til she's finished before she recommends a book but this time I kept getting nudges like, "you've started it, right?" I had a wait-and-read attitude because of the wrenching cover art, what I knew of the content and the 700+ pages. Usually January is my month for a more mammoth read; I remember I read David McCullough's "John Adams" the January after 9/11 and it was the perfect time for an uplifting look at one of the brilliant, founding minds of America. But when Betsy finished and texted: READ THIS BOOK about "A Little Life" I did, even though it was summer. Like her I went all in for a week and Yanagihara's exquisite prose drew me, at times wincing, into an unforgettable story of four college friends. Of them, I will never forget Willem and Jude. Never. I was so immersed in their story that it felt like it was happening to me. I remember Betsy saying, "I can't get out of bed" she found it so affecting. I know it doesn't sound like something you want to race off and experience, but without Betsy's urgent "RTB" (our code for READ THIS BOOK, and I mean hurry), I would have missed one of the top two or three books I've ever read.
Well, friends - we have two events upcoming that will inspire you also to RTBs and GTBs (read and/or give these books...). It's that twinkle time of year for our Champagne and Sleighbells Book Recommendation party. That's when me and the PPB Readers "stand and gush" about their favorite new fiction and nonfiction. But this year we're adding a NEW SECOND recommendation event -- Paula will lead an evening of setting goals to make time for reading -- across your favorite genres, and maybe some new ones. Paula will host a fun party December 3d at 7pm to share ideas and specific book titles to have an inspired 2019 reading year - this is perfect for you, yourself and you, or for members of book clubs looking to schedule your selections (remember you get 15% of your book club reads at PPB). Please RSVP to these events as seating is limited (630-765-7455).
Friends, my current RTB is "Women in Sunlight" by Frances Mayes ... a novel of four women of a certain age range that takes place in Tuscany (Mayes wrote the delightful "Under the Tuscan Sun.") It's full of food and friendship and re-imagining the second, more independent and wide-open half of life. Really well written and immersive - you will feel like you have four new friends -- and I imagine it will be a movie (maybe casting Meryl, Sally, Blythe, Julia?). It's not fluff because these are strong, complicated women, but it's an easy read if that makes sense. Click here to order it and support PPB - you won't regret it!

we just couldn't stop
they were playin' our favourites, start to end
we yelled "turn it up!"
(refrain) but silence is good, and what's under the hood
will get us over this hilltop dome
and a river of light falls into sight
here we are, half-way home
i swear there's four hundred pickups, haulin' Skidoos
lookin' for the snow
who knows why they love that noise
but i could tell you what i know
of the four hundred things i could say in this darkness
to move you, north with me
"i love you" would be the first and the last,
and a few times in between
(coda) it's less than an hour now
you just close your eyes
i will wake you for
the next river of light
there are random times when Deb and i have the same thought, and there is a particular place where we always do. it's on the 400 freeway north, where, over the crest of a hill, you can see a ribbon of headlights snaking down the curving hill in the southbound lanes, and the thought we share is "and the river of cars / they fall like stars / down the I-75". killer line from the song named after the interstate.
one small thing that bothers me about Fred Eaglesmith is that his geographical images, and inspiration, i suppose, are almost all American - on this album, it's Texas, the I-75, Wichita, Oklahoma. his music is quite correctly called "Americana".
this song is an hommage to our favourite cut on "Dusty" - my lyric could be sung to Fred's melody, fairly easily. but i make it personal, and hopeful, and drag it into central Ontario.
i wanted to change "river of cars" to "ribbon of light", but Deb lobbied successfully to stick with "river".
that killer line is a great example of rule-breaking behaviour, the outcome of which is stronger and better than what he might have come up with by following the picky standards some of us like to set for ourselves: 1. the grammar is questionable, ie. singular "river", plural "cars", plural verb form even 'though it's "river of cars"; and 2. he piles a simile on top of a metaphor in the same line.
it's brilliant. but i doubt there's any planning involved - i think Fred just doesn't care much for conventions. he writes a lot of songs - a friend of his quotes him as saying "i write fifteen songs before breakfast" - and performs and records the ones that work.
so that's song number seven, less than half-way through the month. "Here we are, half-way home."

The Israeli pavilion joins the key international pavilions of diamonds and jewelry from throughout the world.
IDI declared 2008 as the "Year of India", and is encouraging Israeli companies to explore business opportunities in the growing Indian market.

"We believe that as India continues to develop industrially and economically, the consumer market for diamond jewelry will show huge expansion. We look forward to cooperation with the very developed Indian diamond industry for the benefit of all. "

Twelve year old Sneha Hoysala says, "When I was reading KenKarta, I was hooked. I loved the beautiful drawings, the new creatures that I've never seen before lurking in the pages. It's THE best book I've ever read!!!"
Past News ReleasesRSS
Chagrin Falls, OH (PRWEB) November 14, 2011
From making documentaries for PBS, to producing and reporting for network news outlets such as NBC, ABC and CBS, Alison Kartevold's career as an Emmy award winning journalist has taken her across two decades and five countries. Now she can add award winning author to her resume. Her first book, KenKarta: Battle of the Onxomon has just won a bronze medal from the Moonbeam Children's Book Awards in the category of "Best First Book – Chapter Book".
Kartevold says she ventured into the realm of fiction at the request of two collaborators she could not refuse. "KenKarta began as a private fairytale I made up for and with my daughters, five years later, it's grown into an award winning novel that kids everywhere can now enjoy. I've got to admit, that feels pretty awesome!" http://kenkarta.com/behind-the-book/
KenKarta: Battle of the Onoxmon, brims with both dark and fanciful events and characters that the trio dreamt up together. Fueled by the imaginations of her two young daughters, Kartevold created a spectacular fantasy world where in tweens and teens can revel. Twelve year old Sneha Hoysala says, "When I was reading KenKarta, I was hooked. I loved the beautiful drawings, the new creatures that I've never seen before lurking in the pages. It's THE best book I've ever read!!!"
The 2011 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards attracted more than 800 entries from throughout North America and the English-speaking world. Organizers say the awards are intended to bring increased recognition to exemplary children's books and their creators, and to celebrate children's books and life-long reading. Each year's entries are judged by expert panels of youth educators, librarians, booksellers, and book reviewers of all ages.
"Watching our kids read them, and hearing the laughter and seeing the tears, you know these books make a difference." says Jenkins Group founder Jerrold Jenkins, father of four children ranging in ages 9 to 19. "We created the Moonbeams to reward these special books and bring them to the attention of parents, booksellers, librarians - and especially to young readers." This year's Moonbeam Awards medal ceremony was held in conjunction with the 2nd annual Traverse City Children's Book Festival, on Saturday, November 12, 2011, in Traverse City Michigan. Kartevold attended the event with her family.
Alison grew up in the Inland Northwest but has lived in eight different states from coast to coast. While writing KenKarta she lived in Pittsburgh PA, and now resides in the Cleveland, OH area with her husband and daughters.

Term 4 Start - School Resumes on Tuesday October 4
Term Review
What a busy but productive term. We again have students achieving great things at Toolooa State High School.
Academically we have seen:
our year 7, 8 and 9 students demonstrate outstanding improvement in our focus areas of Reading and Writing
our year 12 QCS students handle this important testing time confidently
strong subject results across the school
Our school attendance is almost 2% higher in term 3 this year than in 2015.
In relation to sport we have seen students achieving at a regional and state level for both school sport and community sporting endeavours.
Additionally our teaching staff have again demonstrated their excellence through supporting our students to excel.
We have seen strong parent support in a number of areas:
significant reduction on students being dropped off in the school grounds
stronger numbers of students in our expected uniform each day
It has been a busy but productive term and we are committed to continuing to improve on what is considered one of the best schools in the region.
Year 6 into 7 Information Evening
Last week we had about 200 people attend our term 3 Year 6 into 7 Information Evening. They had the opportunity to do a school tour, understand our approach for transition as well as being provided with specific information about how Toolooa State High School operates. This was without doubt the largest group we have seen at these events and we look forward to another strong contingent of year 7's next year. I would like to recognise the work of our Head of Junior Secondary, Miss Jess Batey, and our Year 7 Coordinator, Mr Craig O'Connor for organising and running the event and thank our team of junior leaders for the leading the school tours.
Student reports will be posted home over the holidays or very early in the first week back. We encourage our parents and carers to discuss the report with their child. Attendance, Effort and Behaviour are critical to student success and we ask that these form the basis of the discussion. We recognise that Academic Results are important however the three factors above have enormous influence on these final results. If we can get the first three right generally students achieve their personal best.
Holiday safety
Our students and staff have worked this term and we hope they have a relaxing break. We do ask that if our families are on the road this holiday period they stay safe, have adequate rest breaks and observe the speed limits. We are very keen to have all of our students and staff back relaxed and recharged for term 4.

Mass mortality associated with a virl-induced vacuolating encephalopathy and retinopathy of larval and juvenile barramundi, Lates calcarifer Bloch.
Munday, B.L., Langdon, J.S., Hyatt, A. & Humphrey, J.D.
Light-microscopic examinations revealed a consistent correlation between a syndrome of mass mortality in hatchery-raised larval and juvenile barramundi (Lates calcarifer) and vacuolation in the brains and retinas of these fish. Large amounts of picorna-like viral particles were found associated with these lesions when brain and retinal tissue was examined by electron microscopy. Epizootological data suggested that vertical transmission of the infectious agent is not a common occurrence, and most transfer of infection is probably from previously-hatched juveniles to recently-hatched larvae. These data include the observation that adequate isolation of older juvenile fish from recently-hatched larvae, coupled with between-hatch cleaning and disinfection of the premises, has apparently controlled mass mortalities in one large hatchery.

Two years ago today, 11/25, I decided to do something… crazy. Not only did I decide that I was going to serve ENCHILADAS at Thanksgiving, I decided to find a piece of myself again. I logged on to WordPress.com for the first time, and Suzlyfe.com was born.
Two years later, today, 11/25, as I look at what Suzlyfe has become, I struggle to find the words to capture what this blog has meant to me. What it continues to mean to me. Part of the reason that I named this blog Suzlyfe is that, well, it really is a life blog. Not a lifestyle blog. Not a fitness, or health, or food blog. Suzlyfe encapsulates what it is to live a life that throws you curve balls just to see how you react and if you can bounce back. What it feels like to laugh one moment and cry the next. To celebrate victories that you never could imagine and then remind you of just how human you are.
Suzlyfe is both a journal and a textbook. Not for you–I don't come here to tell you how to live your life, but rather to remind me of how I should live mine. To remind me of all the highs of my life, and when the lows feel overwhelming, to remind me of just how much those highs outweigh them. To remind me to stay humble, but also to work hard, play hard, and to laugh at and with myself as often as possible.
But above all, Suzlyfe has given me the chance to connect. With readers, bloggers, businesses, experiences, and with myself.
When I started Suzlyfe, I felt lost–I was working as a waitress trying to pursue a field that didn't seem to want me while my husband had a clear path that was paved for him. I was still too pulled between worlds to feel that I could find a place that would let me be. Suzlyfe became that place. Suzlyfe became my therapist. I told Suzlyfe my stories, my recipes, my jokes, the ins and outs of what I was going through.
Read my one year blogiversary post here!
The past year has been more of the same–feeling caught between worlds, passions, and where I "should" and "shouldn't" be. But I think I finally stopped fighting the multifaceted nature of my life–the question of "what do you do"–and decided to embrace it and let it encompass something more, and insodoing, I finally found the title of my dreams: Coach.
What is next for Suzlyfe? Isn't that the magical question. I have no intention of altering my mission statement for both my blog and my life. And my motto, well, now it is part of business cards, so it better not change.
To choose favorite posts from this past year would be like choosing favorite days, or favorite parts of me. I loved writing my Confessions posts of earlier this year, letting you all even further inside my crazy. Of course I love the posts where I talked about blowing my own damn mind (in Phoenix and in Chicago). I love writing about food and nutrition and how it brings us together. I love writing about going home–wherever it might be at the time. Remembering time with friends new and old, putting booze in hors d'oevres and other crazy concoctions, and getting away from everything. Time spent with family, time spent with my husband, laughing at Zoe.
Suzlyfe reminds me, on a daily basis, of how God Damn Lucky I Am, and how much I love my life. Not because it is perfect, but because it is mine.
Because it makes us all laugh, and writing about my life has selfishly given me the privilege of making you all a part of it.
The last giveaway of Suzlyfe Blogiversary Giveaway Month is Oatmega Bars (Giveaway now up!). Don't worry, you will still have a full week to enter it, but I couldn't think of a more fitting day to start the final giveaway than on a day of thanks. And on't forget that this is your last day to enter the Bogg's Trail Butter Giveaway!On her second blogiversary, @suzlyfe just wants to say THANK YOU #fitfluential #thankful #sweatpink Click To Tweet
I would love to hear from all readers, new and old! Please say hi and tell me what you wanted to be when you grew up!
Thank you to Amanda for letting me think out loud!
