The African Development Bank's Affirmative Finance Action for Women in Africa (AFAWA) program has signed a financial procedures agreement with the World Bank-led Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative (We-Fi).
"This agreement is an important milestone for the AFAWA program, and presents an opportunity to leverage substantial resources to unlock the transformational potential of women's entrepreneurship in Africa," said Vanessa Moungar, Director of the Bank's Gender, Women and Civil Society Department.
The agreement was signed on 15 October 2018 in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire.
Moungar said the agreement would lead to further collaboration on similar programmes and the opportunity to share lessons learned.
Women form the backbone of African economies and have a critical role to play in inclusive economic development. However, they face numerous challenges in obtaining financing, owning and expanding businesses and access to capital and technology.
The Bank estimates the financing gap for African women's business at US$42 billion. Its AFAWA initiative aims to provide financing and a holistic approach to women's entrepreneurship.
Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative, or We-Fi, is a collaborative partnership among 14 governments, eight multilateral development banks, and other public and private sector stakeholders, hosted by the World Bank Group. It seeks to address financial and non-financial constraints faced by women-owned/led small and medium enterprises in developing countries.
We-Fi issues calls for proposals for projects, programs, and activities that are aligned with its objectives and principles. Project implementation is led by Implementing Partners that are screened and accredited by the We-Fi Governing Committee. The first approved proposals were announced on 19 April 2018, with US$120 million allocated for proposals submitted by the Asian Development Bank, Islamic Development Bank, and World Bank Group. Under We-Fi's second call for proposals, issued on 17 October 2018, up to US$120 million of financing is available for programs and projects contributing to supporting women's entrepreneurship in eligible countries. The proposals must be submitted by 4 February 2019 and allocations will be announced in April 2019.
Affirmative Finance Action for Women in Africa, or AFAWA, was launched at the African Development Bank's Annual Meeting in May 2016 in Lusaka, Zambia. It is a pan-African initiative with an overarching objective of bridging the finance gap for women in Africa and unlocking their entrepreneurial capacity. AFAWA adopts a holistic approach through three pillars: strengthening access to financing for women-owned and -led businesses, building the capacity of women entrepreneurs and financial institutions, and engaging dialogue with African governments to support legal, policy and regulatory reforms that improve business-enabling environments to accelerate women's entrepreneurship.

Driftwood is one of those elements you don't necessarily expect to see in wedding decorations, but when you do, it takes your breath away. Two of a Kind, Tory Williams, and Brita Olsen Creative recently worked together to bring us this styled wedding shoot full of soft pink flowers, ivory tones, and yes, driftwood centerpieces complemented by a birchwood chuppah for the ceremony. Everything comes together for a perfectly modern event with just enough romance!
From the decor rentals director, Two of a Kind: This inspirational shoot took place in the heart of Manhattan, New York at the prestigious 583 Park which has recently been restored and made available for private events. We could think of no better place to host this shoot! Even though it was a cold, brisk day in New York City our team of vendors stayed strong while mainly focusing on indoor scenes such as a styled ceremony table, a ceremony backdrop while also getting multiple outdoor bride/groom photos.
Our elegant bride wore two dresses from Nearly Newlywed which included a classic Monique Lhullier gown and a head-to-toe sequined Marc Jacobs dress! We love when the groom does a suit change too, which is why we featured two perfectly tailored suits by Suitable which had him looking dapper all throughout the evening. A birchwood Chuppah by Two of a Kind Rentals covered in olive branches made for a beautiful white winter ceremony backdrop. Other rental pieces seen in this shoot include natural grapewood branches placed as table centerpieces and champagne sequin tablecloths matching our gilded cakes. Also, large oversized chalkboards are scattered through the shoot with hand scripted details such as menu and dinner options. The color scheme of choice for this shoot included muted greens and soft whites which flowed strong not only in the prop rentals, but also in the flowers, bride's dresses and custom Suitable suits.
We sprinkled our bride's hair with a handful of paper whites while also adding them to our romantic table centerpieces that decked the venue halls. A unique bouquet of roses, chrysanthemum and paper whites by Swell botanics made for a beautiful bouquet. Personal wedding cakes by Made in Heaven Cakes serve as place cards and would be a welcome treat at any winter wedding!

There are plenty of contraception options that many people who are trying to avoid pregnancy are utilizing such as birth control pills, condoms which are male and female, IUD's, Depo-Provera, diaphragms and some even go to the extreme by sterilizing themselves by getting a tubal ligation or a vasectomy. And, many women have a hard time with going on the pill whether it is due to having a strong reaction due to the changes in hormones or having to worry about forgetting to take the pill on time. And, at the same time, many people are hesitant to permanently sterilize themselves because oce you are sterilized, then you cannot go back. Well, actually, tubal reversals can work but it is expensive and there is a great chance that it won't work.
That means there is going to be plenty of disappointment as well as plenty of lost money. This is why this form of birth control is extreme. However, the good news is that thanks to medical technology and technology in general that is constantly evolving, there are new methods of birth control as well on the horizon. And one of those new methods is birth control jewelry that only needs to be changed once a week! This sounds like a dream come true for many people because you don't have to worry about having to remember to take any pills at certain times of the day. You also don't have to worry about condoms tearing, IUD's falling out, or waiting for potentially a year and a half to get pregnant if you change your mind after coming off other forms of birth control such as the Depo shot.
However, before you get too excited, this form of contraception is so new that it is still in its research stage as it is extremely early. You now may be wondering how this even works. There are 3 different layers with the jewelry. The first layer sticks to the jewelry which is an adhesive, and the second layer is the critical one with the contraceptive part. And, the third layer is both an adhesive that sticks to your skin as well as has a property that allows the hormone to be absorbed properly as well. And you may think this technology is brand new and even though it was just said that it is in its research stage at this time but this technology actually has been around for a while. The patch has been a thing for a long time, and in essence, this is what this form of contraceptive is. It is a patch that serves the same purpose but the difference is that it is made so small to the point that it can be converted into jewelry. This is why this form is in its infancy and requires a lot of time and research before this goes out onto the market. With that said, the patch is not new technology but utilizing it to fit with the jewelry is brand new which requires plenty of testing. And for jewelry lovers, this is an absolute dream come true. However, for those who don't understand the purpose of this, the reason that contraceptive jewelry is on the horizon is that this is a good method of contraception for those who are in third world countries that don't have access to other forms of contraception.
And not to mention, this can also help researchers look into creating forms of remedies in this jewelry form that can help with motion sickness as well as helping those to stop smoking. Just like how the patch for those issues has been administered, but in a jewelry form. Additionally, this form of birth control also will not cause nearly as many unpleasant side effects as most hormonal-based birth control methods do. And, what is also appealing once again about this form of birth control is that it can be changed once a week. There is no need again to worry about changing it once a day at a particular time like you would have to take the pill, or waiting to get pregnant for a long time after coming off another form of birth control once you are ready. Birth control jewelry will not be on the market for a while as it is still in the beginnings of its research phase. However, it is on its way and it is on the horizon. It is an appealing method of birth control as well which will be pleasing to those who are looking for effective and non-invasive birth control methods.
White pasty or milky when accompanied by intense itching or strong odor may be a sign of vaginal infections such as candidiasis or other gynecological diseases. But when white, transparent or milky appearance and odor is considered normal. Questions and recurring reports, white discharge is one of the doubts that do not want to shut up! After all, does that mucus that looks like a pomade look like a pregnancy sign? Let's first clarify, runny nose and mucus are completely different things. The discharge usually comes from a problem, inflammation or transient illness like candida or moniliíase.
What is White Mucus?
To understand this white mucus, we have to know how the body works. First, the body has a significant drop in progesterone. Then the menstruation descends with red flow. This is the most easily identifiable flow like menstruation, but this may also be brownish in color, with little flow, clear blood or clots. Then the body begins the process of more progesterone production, in this period the woman becomes drier and sees the white discharge again. This phase is not recurrent for all women. There are those that go straight to the most watery, estrogen-based mucus. When this mucus is present it is a sign that ovulation is about to happen getting pregnant on clomid.
Why does MucoBranco happen?
After ovulation, the progesterone is again stimulated by the body. The corpus luteum (scar where the ruptured follicle was present) begins to produce high doses of progesterone, which in consequence will bring again this pasty white discharge. To know if this white discharge can be pregnancy, it is necessary that the organism continues to produce this mucus even after the menstrual delay . Some women may have a sign of bleeding in the meantime. This may mean 3 things:
Menstruation is anticipating
A woman with a healthy cycle should have at least 12 days of the luteal phase, that is, the phase in which the corpus luteum predominates with its hormonal elevation. But after all, white discharge what can be? The presence of this milky white discharge strongly suggests that the body functioned as it should and the woman ovulated. However, the presence of this constant mucus, without noticeable changes, can mean that the woman has an anovulatory cycle.
The bleeding that may happen, be it of advanced menstruation or escape, may want to signal to that woman that her progesterone is not enough to support the endometrium and thus, there would be no time for the embryo to implant. Therefore, very short luteal phases, less than 12 days, should be evaluated by the physician . There are medicines that help keep the endometrium in place until the zygote can reach the uterus. To clarify, after fertilization, the embryo can take from 7 to 15 days to reach the place where it will be implanted to grow. When this implantation happens, it is possible that there are small bleeding or brownish colored discharge. However it is worth remembering that any bleeding should be regarded as possible menstruation on the way. Let's think about nesting after the period of menstrual delay . We can say that the more white mucus the better. This white discharge can be pregnancy, when in abundance. For some women, after the fertile period it is possible to feel it drain like a menstruation.
This may mean that the corpus luteum is fulfilling its role properly , but it may also mean that there was fertilization! They say that the more white mucus the woman has, the greater the possibility of fertilization! The body understands that they have an organism developing there inside the uterus and works to make it bigger the production of progesterone. This in turn will hold the endometrium in place so that the zygote, find a suitable and cuddly place to lodge and grow! In short, the more white mucus, the greater the chance of pregnancy . However milky white discharge can be pregnancy if the delay happens. If you had this white mucus or runny pasty looking like ointment in large quantity, but still menstruated, this is a sign that there was ovulation only. Remember that the cause of this mucus is hormone , and it is present in your body all the time.
White Pastes
A great doubt of the readers is in relation to the texture of the discharge. Many believe that it is through her that is indicated some problem or infection in the vaginal area and not quite so. Paste white discharge without accompanying bad smell and vaginal itching does not indicate any problem. Usually white pasty paste indicates that there is a higher concentration of progesterone, so it has a firmer look. The harder the mucus being the more concentration of progesterone hormone it has.
Milky white discharge
As with pasty discharge, milky white discharge without presenting fetid and causing intense vaginal itching, vulva and all of its area is considered healthy. The more fluid the discharge is the more amount of estrogen it has.
How to Know the Right Day of Ovulation
Many women find it difficult to know the right ovulation day, whether through a deregulated cycle or even a cycle with some kind of intercurrence such as polycystic ovaries, for example, which most often vaccinates ovulation because of its hormonal action on the body.
Download free guide Ovulation: The Key to Getting Pregnant
Although the female fertile period is somewhat complex, women who wish to become pregnant should be aware of the signals that the body gives to enjoy and date in this period where it would be ovulating to achieve pregnancy. But how to detect the female fertile period amidst irregular cycles and in some cases absence of mucus ?
Irregular Cycles
The truth is that irregular cycles are harder to handle when it comes to getting pregnant. Being aware of this cycle and knowing the body is fundamental to the success of attempts to conceive. Know exactly what the female fertile period is with the hormonal changes and that these changes can be clearly perceived in some cases but not so much in others. Part of this process is the cervical mucus , is it a strong indication that ovulation is happening at that certain period? We know that the most fertile mucus is the most elastic that is tuning during the ovulation process and in the female fertile period . With the passing days the tendency of this elastic mucus is to get thinner, more slippery and stretch, so to speak. But not all women have this mucus! Yes, you ask me, even if I do not have stretchy mucus as they always describe, can I ovulate? Can! Some women tend to have watery (watery) mucus in the fertile period. It is humid to the extreme but without the traditional elastic mucus or egg-white appearance. These cases are more common than you might think! So women who tend to get much wetter during the female fertile period should date when they feel more wet right?
Vaginal and Libido Changes
Another aspect also that should be taken into consideration of how knowing the day of ovulation is the receptivity of the vagina during this fertile period, it can become more swollen and more sensitive to touch. Some women have a considerable increase in libido to facilitate conception (sexual arousal). It is nature working in favor of pregnancy. We can not forget the soap-like mucus that many women have but do not know it is a fertile mucus. Mucus looking like soap, a gossip similar to vaginal lubrication for intercourse, but in more quantity than the usual custom. If you see this mucus then it sends bullet in the sexual relations, because the chance of ovulation happening is very great.
How to Calculate Fertile Day in Unregulated Cycles
So many women with dysregulated cycles get confused and make it even harder to know the day of ovulation. Usually ovulation occurs 14 days before the next menstruation . In regular cycles it is very easy to identify the fertile period even if the woman does not present the fertile mucus. But still, it may not have the most fertile day on the 14th day of the cycle, but 2 to 3 days before or after. But what about deregulated cycles? Then some tricks to get the fertile period appear and can become very useful. Learning how to calculate the fertile period is a big plus or maybe a little table to get pregnant , controlling the signs of ovulation ! Okay, let's imagine that in irregular cycles there is an average of days. Even if it is long, there are women who have cycles of up to 80 days! Yes, women with hormonal disorders tend to have long cycles. Not counting women who have polycystic ovaries that take longer to get ovulate, and get pregnant.
After noting that the hormones are in order by means of blood and ultrasound examinations to see that the ovaries and uterus are ok, one can make an average between the largest and smallest menstrual cycle you ever had and start taking the ovulation test on the day that would surely be the beginning of the fertile period. Menstrual cycle is the interval between one menstruation and another and theoretically in the middle of it or 14 days before the next menstruation begins the female fertile period. If you had a cycle greater than 40 days and then a cycle less than 20 days, we must take these two numbers into account to get a fertile period of the average. But today we know that not all organisms are equal and all this is just a theory . Today we know thatthe fertile period can happen at any point in the cycle and that the fertile period on the 14th day of the cycle became a legend in the face of the reality of women's organizations.

Questions To Ask Before You Book a Wedding Planner
If you're planning on using a wedding planner, then it's just as important to ask the right questions as it would for any other service you're thinking of using. That's why today, we're going to be talking about the right questions to ask before you book a wedding planner.
Because your wedding day is the most important day, we believe it's important to take each step, each decision as carefully as the last. You want your special day to go smoothly, surrounded by those you love, and of course the partner you'll be spending the rest of your life with.
You Want Someone Who's a Good Fit
Your wedding planner should be able to put you at ease and make you feel you're in safe hands. You want somebody who's lively and inquisitive, with plenty of questions of her own for you so she/he knows exactly what you want for your big day. The relationship needs to be a good fit so don't go with a planner you don't feel comfortable with. Someone who doesn't want to listen to your ideas, take over and tell you what you should be having or has no references to offer should have alarm bells ringing in your head. You also want someone who's willing to sign an agreement.
What You'll Pay, Budgets and Availability
You need them to be available on your wedding date so check this out first, you'll also want to know the cost of their wedding plan, how much do they normally charge clients on average? Check if there's a minimum budget they're willing to work with. Will they help you to stay within your budget?
What Sort of Services Do They Offer?
Is it full service or is it just coordinating the actual day or a complete vision of the entire event, such as styling? Make sure it's clear what they provide, whether it's both coordination and design or just one or the other.
Do They Have Experience?
It's best to choose wedding planners with plenty of experience, that way you'll feel like you're in safe hands. Weddings are an emotional and personal event, and you want someone who's had experienced of this.
How Many Weddings Are They Working On?
You may find it useful to know how many other weddings they're working on at the same time as yours. If they're juggling too many, then they may not be able to give you their full attention, although if your planner has enough people in the team, they may be more than able to handle more than one wedding.
How Do They Like To Be Paid?
You might want your potential wedding planners whether they handle payments themselves or via another vendor, they also may have a particular way of collecting the fee, such as a non-refundable deposit at the beginning and then perhaps the rest at the end, or they may prefer for you to pay in stages throughout the planning. Do they outsource to other professionals and if so, who do they prefer to work with, you want to be surrounded by the best people, so find out who they'll be working with.
Most Unusual Wedding?
What is the most unusual wedding they've ever prepared? This will give you an idea of how creative, inventive and able they are. You'll hopefully get a sense of how they like to work and how well they pulled it off. Ask them how they intend to pull off your special day and how they think they'll plan it out.
How Many Meetings
How many meetings do they think they're going to need, how will these meetings be conducted, will it be mostly via email or phone? Also, if they need you to see swatches, samples and pictures, how many face-to-face meetings will they need and how will these be arranged?
References and Testimonials
Finally, do they have any references and testimonials you can see? There's nothing better than being able to see what others have to say about your potential wedding planner and how good they actually were. Ask if there's any possibility of speaking directly to past clients and that way you can hear it straight from the horse's mouth.

- USD/CHF reversed from strong resistance zone
- Next sell target - 0.9900
USD/CHF has been falling strongly in the last few trading sessions – following the earlier downward reversal from the resistance zone surrounding the major, long-term resistance level 1.0200 (which previously reversed the price sharply at the start of 2015 and also in November of 2015, as you can see from the weekly USD/CHF chart below). If the price closes this week near the current levels – it will form the 3rd consecutive weekly reversal pattern Bearish Engulfing.
USD/CHF is currently approaching the parity. If the pair breaks below the parity - USD/CHF will then, most likely, fall to the next sell target at the support level 0.9900.

In the senior year, all biology majors complete a research project that requires original experimentation and scientific review. The goal of this thesis is to have it published in premier scientific journals. This process occurs over the span of one summer and two semesters.
The senior thesis is a transforming experience. Personal growth and maturation can be "painful". Some students have a difficult time, and it can be unpleasant for those who procrastinate. Although it is hard, it is not the intellectual component that confounds students: it is the self-discipline required.
Faculty are ever present to support and discuss the research projects with the students, but the faculty will not micro-manage the students' projects. Students come to understand their stake in their own research, and that they are responsible for its palpable success, or its reduced success. This is a difficult lesson for students who are accustomed to being told what to do, how to do it, and when to do it. The rewards in learning and professional growth are unparalleled in any program.

Factors affecting Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) in the Mersey catchment, North West England, and the potential for a recolonisation

- Abstract
Salmon became locally extinct from the River Mersey, northwest England, during the 1950s – 1970s due to deterioration in water quality and man-made barriers. Stray salmon began entering the River Mersey in the 1990s but a self sustaining population has yet to become established. The aim of the study was to review and investigate the recent history of the Mersey catchment, the current status of and factors effecting the salmon population and the potential for a natural recolonisation of River Mersey.
The requirements of adult and juvenile salmon and homing and staying in salmon were reviewed. The physiochemical requirements of salmon are highly specific with connectivity of fundamental importance to upstream migration. In reviewing the status of the Mersey catchment flow manipulation, obstructions to migration, poor water quality and river modifications were common in all rivers. Adult and juvenile salmon have been captured in the Mersey catchment since 2000 but have consistently been caught in low numbers and smolts have not been captured.
Genetic analysis was used to assign salmon entering the Mersey to their region of origin. The Mersey is dependent on stray salmon with the majority from rivers in the Solway and Northwest England areas. A tracking study was used to determine salmon behaviour and route choice in the Mersey catchment and salmon were found to be prevented from moving freely within or upstream of the lower Mersey catchment. Habitat surveys undertaken throughout the catchment revealed a general trend of key habitats existing upstream of barriers and inaccessible to adult salmon. Salmon are unable to recolonise the Mersey catchment in its current state. There are a range of management and restoration options available to restore salmon to the Mersey catchment but a coordinated and concerted effort is required to be successful.

Delegator has improved the performance of more than 125 clients since its founding more than a decade ago.
Providing real results drives us - not hype or vanity metrics.
Delegator was founded out of necessity, with a focus on results.
A foundation of expertise. Beginning in the late 90s, co-founder Stephen Culp founded and led ecommerce leader Smart Furniture through its first decade of growth. With the expertise of a team including co-founder Andrew Scarbrough, Smart Furniture developed an internal mastery of digital advertising, PPC, SEO, analytics, and related dev work, steadfastly avoiding outside agency help.
Trust is important. As the complexity and dynamism of digital advertising escalated exponentially, specialized agency work ultimately became a necessity. But finding an agency to entrust with the company's most important revenue channel was a challenge. So the pair assembled a team and, in 2009, started their own agency, Delegator.
Be skeptical. With an admitted skepticism of a typical agency's array of vanity metrics ("No revenue to speak of, but we drove over 100M impressions and you're trending on Buzz-Hype!"), Delegator drives results that matter the most to clients, like old-school dollar-based ROI. Delegator then backs up those results with precise data analytics.
Based in Tennessee. Delegator's team is based in the United States, in the distinctively low-overhead state of Tennessee. With an emphasis on growing a long-term base of human expertise, our team is low-turnover (you won't be assigned a new account manager every two weeks), and strives to be a strategic partner for each of its clients.
Humans make the difference. To that point, while Delegator does employ cutting-edge technology in its work, the team doesn't discount the importance of the human element. There is value in experience and long-term relationships. There is value in honesty, decency, hard work, and an ethic of service not unlike the proverbial Golden Rule. And there is value in trust. The team at Delegator will work to earn yours.

Heat Check
Has Rodney McGruder already won the Heat's starting small forward job?
The Miami Heat plays its second preseason game tonight in Brooklyn and before the team takes the court its time to debut the new Heat Check Mailbag.
Q: By the way Justise Winslow is talking it seems as though Rodney McGruder has already won the starting job. Is there still a battle for the starting small forward job? If Justise does come off the bench, how does that affect his contract extension? – Derrick Wyatt, Jupiter
Nothing is set in stone and there are still five preseason games left for Erik Spoelstra to decide what he wants to do with his lineups and rotations, but it's looking more and more like McGruder and not Winslow or Josh Richardson will be in the starting lineup alongside Goran Dragic, Dion Waiters, James Johnson and Hassan Whiteside. And the reason has nothing to do with McGruder's performance and everything to do with the fact somebody in the starting rotation has to be OK with not touching the ball very often.
McGruder is a selfless player, a gritty defender and an improving three-point shooter. He's basically what Udonis Haslem was in his prime with the ability to hit corner threes. Spoelstra loves to have those kind of players in his starting lineup because it sets a team-first mentality and rewards hard work. It also allows him to bring more talent off the bench, which could ultimately be where the Heat win a lot of games this season.
We saw in Sunday's preseason-opening win over the Hawks how good that second unit of Winslow, Richardson, Tyler Johnson, Wayne Ellington and Kelly Olynyk looked together, spreading the floor and attacking driving lanes. Spoelstra likes that unit and he also has a need to find something special off the bench considering James Johnson – last year's revelation – is now in the starting lineup. That said, if the Heat's starting lineup struggles there's no reason to believe Spoelstra won't turn to Richardson as his starter at small forward. He may even be tempted to put James Johnson back on the bench and start Winslow instead. We'll see.
As for Winslow and his contract, he has one more year on his rookie contract at roughly $3.4 million. If the Heat see him develop into the kind of player they want long term they can make a commitment to him next summer.
Manny do you believe in Winslow? Norris Cole was a hard worker as well, had heat DNA. He just could not learn to shoot.— Ahmad (@vickegilaf) October 4, 2017
Q: Do you believe in Winslow? Norris Cole was a hard worker as well, had heat DNA. He just could not learn to shoot. – Ahmad (@vickegilaf)
I know it seems insane to write this in today's NBA, but not every player needs to be a shooter to be successful. I think one thing a lot of us have done in our minds with Justise is tie his future to being a small forward that has to be able to knock down three-pointers to have keep a job. While that's still the hope internally with the Heat, he can very much be a quality starting power forward in this league who defends the other team's best player, averages 12 to 15 points a game driving to the basket and getting to the foul line, and creates offense for others with his ballhandling skills and vision.
As I wrote earlier this week, Winslow is working hard to improve his shot and the Heat are helping him at every turn. But ultimately Spoelstra simply wants him to be someone who fills the boxscore in multiple ways like James Johnson. If Winslow can simply improve enough where he's knocking down open shots – he doesn't need to be an elite three-point shooter – the Heat see it as a victory because it will help the offense as a whole. He has to be capable of that in my opinion and is definitely putting in the work to improve.
Is he shooting with his right?— MIAMI HEAT (@heatlifer21) October 3, 2017
Q: Was Justise Winslow shooting with his right hand in the video you tweeted out following Tuesday's practice? – @Heatlifer
My apologies for the poor video quality, but no he wasn't. Those were left-handed shots. Winslow was on the far end of the practice court. I just happened to catch a run where he missed five shots in a row. There were many other instances when he buried five or six in a row. He puts up close to 1,000 shots a day and doesn't leave the court until he's made at least 500.
Oye asere what do you think of these players like wade & Haslem saying he really considered joining the cavs. I think they're so ungrateful— Miami (@CubanMofo2) October 4, 2017
Q: What do you think of Udonis Haslem saying he really considered joining the Cavs? I think he and Dwyane Wade are so ungrateful. – @CubanMofo2
Look, all Haslem did was provide a peek behind the scenes of what really happens in the NBA. As much as Haslem is the ambassador and leader of Heat Nation, he's someone who very much believes he can still help an NBA team as he told our Barry Jackson in the story you are referring to. Even though the Heat put up banners at his house and both he and the team knew there was going to be a continuation of the marriage for a 15th season, you might remember what Pat Riley said back in April about the Heat's captain and how he was going to have to earn a spot on this roster and not just be given a spot.
Ultimately in this league you never know what might happen with a roster. What if the Heat had signed Gordon Hayward to a max deal? What if Riley thought Miami needed to add another point guard to this roster like Derrick Rose? Haslem never had a 100 percent guarantee back in July he had a roster spot. He explored his options and ultimately he chose Miami over Cleveland. Because it sounds like he could have gone to the Cavs had he wanted to.
Will Bam see a lot of minutes at the start of the season or will coach Spo ease him into it?— MoBuckets (@1AzharMoe) October 4, 2017
Q: Will rookie Bam Adebayo see a lot of minutes at the start of the season or will coach Spo ease him into it? – MoBuckets (@1AzharMoe)
Honestly, I'm starting to wonder if Bam will see any minutes at all barring injury. For as much as we've heard great things about Adebayo from the Heat, there really isn't a need right now to play him with a roster this deep. I'm sure Spoelstra will find ways to get him into games this preseason and on nights in the regular season when Hassan Whiteside gets into foul trouble. But until we see a lineup this preseason where Adebayo is running with rotation players we have to assume he's just not in the plans to see any significant minutes once the regular season begins. That's not to say the Heat are not high on him or don't plan to play him this season. But I think the priority right now is to play the guys Spoelstra wants and needs on the floor. That's just how deep this team is.

The group was allegedly attempting to exacerbate tensions with Ukraine and promote the Kremlin's interests. Several Western nations have accused Russia of similar tactics.
Polish intelligence agency ABW said on Thursday that it had uncovered a plan to sow discord between Poland and Ukraine and lead an "informational war…against Poland and in the interests of Russia."
To that end, Warsaw intends to expel one Russian and ban four others from entering the country. The group is suspected of "hybrid activities," meaning non-military subversive tactics.
"Their aim is to destabilize the socio-political situation in our country," said ABW spokesman Stanislaw Zaryn.
"Yekaterina C. instigated activities aimed at consolidating pro-Russian groups in Poland and feeding animosity between Poland and Ukraine," Zaryn added in a statement to French news agency AFP, referring to the woman awaiting deportation.
Among the strategies employed by the group, Zaryn said, was to promote interpretations of historical events that would incite hatred between Ukrainians and Poles and cast a sympathetic light on Moscow.
While Poland has in recent years been a key supporter of pro-Western attitudes in Ukraine, the two neighbors share a difficult past. Many Poles were massacred by Ukrainian nationalists during Germany's occupation in World War II, which came after a longer period of Polish colonialism and brutality in parts of Ukraine.
The last two years have seen an uneasy alliance shaken by differing opinions over that shared history and a rise in nationalistic policies in both Warsaw and Kyiv.
Poland is the latest NATO nation to accuse the Kremlin of engaging in "hybrid warfare" to undermine member states without triggering military retaliation.
es/sms (AP, AFP, Reuters)
Warsaw has announced plans to build a new territorial defense force of 53,000 volunteers by 2019. Priority would be given to eastern provinces deemed to be most exposed to pressure from Russia, the defense ministry said. (14.11.2016)
For the first time in 25 years the US is reportedly dusting off contingency plans for an armed conflict with Russia - and finds that NATO can't fully defend the Baltic States. DW asked three Kremlin watchers to weigh in. (22.09.2015)
The world's chemical weapons watchdog has convened over accusations that Russia carried out a nerve agent attack on an ex-double agent in Britain. Moscow demanded the meeting, saying it wanted to raise issues. (04.04.2018)
British Prime Minister Theresa May's national security advisor told NATO that a Russian military intelligence agency has been observing the Skripals since 2013. Russia said the spying accusation was a "big surprise." (13.04.2018)

The City Council can�t wait for the St. Mary�s renovation.
The council opted against fleshing out a tax increment exemption at the subcommittee level and approved it Tuesday night to help move the project along. The agreement would exempt developers CT Management from paying on any increased value caused by the renovation of the four structures into 29 market-rate housing units for four year.
For years to come, the former St. Mary's church will remain a landmark on Tyler Street.
The 75-year-old church had nearly been demolished a few years ago to make way for a Dunkin Donuts.

ISKCON Mira Road Conducts Workshop For Teachers
A workshop on essential values and their implementation was conducted in the month of January from the 28th to the 30th for the teachers of Shanti Nagar High School (primary section) in Mira Road that was headed by H.G. Bhagavati Krupa Devi Dasi partnered with the impactful speaking skills of H.G. Vrndavana Tulsi Devi Dasi (M. Com. [management] & MBA in HR). The workshop held in the school premises with around 40 teachers in attendance aimed at renewing the whole knowledge and application of integral values in the lives of the children by guiding the teachers to learn a whole new way of getting the young minds to be better individuals in the future. The teachers, along with their principal Mr. Diago Tuscany were extremely reciprocative to the whole experience and were willing to learn for the betterment of the children.
The workshop was a basic gist of the values that make an individual today. The interactive nature of it made it more of a group discussion that helped trigger a lot of ideas in the teachers' minds on how these values can be put to use in the day-to-day lives of the kids. The unique responses by the teachers was a sure sign of victory for our devoted women who represented ISKCON on a public platform. One of the very exceptional responses was from a teacher who claimed that she would ridicule value educationists since she thought they were all the same; but after the workshop conducted by us, her perceptions about the field of soft skill training had changed completely. The impact that the words had on the teachers'minds had to be seen to be believed.
The workshop also helped greatly in understanding the psyche of each teacher and how a change in their thinking would help in initiating a change in the children whose lives they are a part of. It can now be surely said that ISKCON has now established a long term association with the school and it's staff. ISKCON now plans to take these golden values to many more schools to come and establish a strong Krsna conscious network among the children, God and everyone in between. Hare Krsna!
Felicitation for Shanti Nagar School teachers at ISKCON Miraroad
The workshop conducted by ISKCON Mira Road for the teachers of Shanti Nagar High School was followed by a small programme to acknowledge the participation of the teachers in the workshop and encourage them to pass on the values to the children in school. Over 40 teachers were present for the programme that was conducted on the 1st of February in the Bhaktivedanta Hall in the temple premises. They were welcomed with a short video that showed cultural adaption of the Indian way of life in another country's state (Texas). It was to signify how Indian culture and values can be rooted into people with different backgrounds which provides as a strong base for inculcation of values in the children of our own country.
A short, insightful speech was later given by H.G. Kamal Lochana Dasa that touched upon the importance of applying values in the lives of children and how it can make one a better individual after which the headmistress of the school Ms. Amita Panesar and a couple of teachers expressed their gratitude and views on the workshop. Later, books by Srila Prabhupada were distributed to all the teachers as a token of thanks for their participation in the 3 day workshop. This was followed by a sumptuous feast prasadam for all the teachers present and hence, making the association of ISKCON with the school stronger by the day. Hare Krsna!

'Feed The Beast' Canceled at AMC
Ratings-challenged AMC drama Feed the Beast will not return for season two, the network has confirmed. Created by Clyde Phillips, the show centered on two friends who partner on a restaurant in the Bronx, battling their demons as well as the criminals who want a piece of their action.
AMC, home of edgy dramas such as The Walking Dead and Halt and Catch Fire, said this in a statement:
"We have great respect and admiration for the entire team associated with Feed the Beast, starting with Clyde Phillips, David Schwimmer, Jim Sturgess and our studio partner, Lionsgate. We are thankful for the opportunity to collaborate with them and appreciative of their talents, dedication and care. Unfortunately, the show simply didn't achieve the results needed to move forward with a second season."

Middletown schools' 2016-17 budget request calls for 7.5 percent boost in spending
Superintendent's budget proposes significant boost in special ed staff, more computer equipment
MIDDLETOWN >> Schools Superintendent Patricia Charles is seeking to bolster special education spending as part of her proposed '16-17 budget, which calls for a 7.5 percent increase over the current year.
If her expenditures are approved by the education board, they will increase the current year's budget from from $78.1 million to $83.7 million.
Her proposed budget calls for hiring seven new staff members and educators at a total cost of $381,948. New personnel would include a language arts teacher at the high school, and a foreign language and math teacher at Woodrow Wilson Middle School. If approved, it would also fund more band uniforms, Chromebooks, four more vehicles and a PowerSchool server, among other items.
During the board's first budget workshop on Jan. 12, Charles also outlined a major effort to dramatically increase staffing for special education that includes hiring staff and teachers, at a projected total cost of $1.3 million.
"We try to restore some of the things that we thought were important. Some of the things that were cut out we tried to put back in. If we have to take it out again, we will take it out again," Charles said.
Charles, who presented her proposed budget to the Board of Education on Dec. 15, acknowledged "7.5 [percent] is a number that is really high."
To help the board in its decision-making process, Charles said just carrying forward the same level of service as currently exists in the school system would require an increase of 3.76 percent.
She also included a list of possible reductions, including cuts to the transportation and school athletics budgets. Charles presented more than a dozen areas in which the budget could be reduced which would translate to a savings of $877,000, she explained.
Charles suggested decreasing the number of city-contracted buses, which would mean some students would not be picked up and dropped off at their homes.
In addition, the cost of fuel oil to heat the schools and diesel fuel to run the buses are expected to decrease from $1.85 to $1.50 per gallon. That alone would cut expenses by $239,000, Charles said.
In addition to transportation reductions, $100,000 in athletics programs funding was also suggested.
These cuts could potentially mean the loss of a Woodrow Wilson Middle School cross-country assistant coach and an assistant boys soccer coach, according to her plan.
"Year after year, we go after things that hit you hard, like the athletics program or the strings program. ... As a district, for some years now, we have been behind the eight ball and some of these reductions put us further behind and I don't want to be a part of that," said Board of Education Vice Chairwoman Sheila Daniels.
At its last workshop, board members agreed to continue talks on ways to trim the budget. The panel has until the first week of March to present its final proposal to the Common Council.
"I would support the superintendent's budget without the reductions, only the refinements. I think that is up to the city to tell us how much money they are willing to give us and if they reduce our budget, then we come back to the table," Daniels said.
The Board of Education's next meeting is Feb. 9.

There's an old saying "never send a boy to do a man's job", so if you're serious about cooking crabs then follow this method. Boiling up a batch of crabs can give off a bit of an odour so this is definitely a job for the backyard, not the kitchen.
Submerge your catch in an ice slurry to start to 'slow them down' then immerse them in a large pot of boiling water for about 15 minutes, depending on size and quantity. From there it's straight back into a fresh salt ice slurry. This will immediately cease the cooking process and cool the crab down ready to eat. Before you cook a crab you need to catch one first.

"El Diablo"
Bella Wayans
Acrylic on Canvas, Newspaper Collage
March 2018: Through the fire, from the ashes
Volume I - Issue 5
Inspired by abstract portraits junior Bella Wayans created El Diablo, not using the typical representation of fire as a destructive force, but instead, applying it as a positive force of cleansing and renewal.
I put the blue in the background to be a cool tone to contrast the red, and then I did the flames because that was the only element that I knew I wanted to incorporate. I was so happy when I found the [piece of newspaper] my face because I was really stuck on what to do and then I found this glass sculpture in a newspaper and it was perfect because it looks like fire but it's abstract and really interesting," Wayans said.
This positive use of fire and idea of renewal inspired March 2018's theme: THROUGH THE FIRE, FROM THE ASHES.

SINGAPORE sentenced wealth planner Yeo Jiawei to 54 months' jail today for money laundering and cheating in relation to a massive global probe involving billions of dollars allegedly misappropriated from 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB).
He is one of a few convicted for offences related to 1MDB in Singapore, which is the only country out of at least 10 jurisdictions investigating the 1MDB scandal that has made Malaysia and "Malaysian Official No. 1" global headline news.
The latest decision also piles more pressure on the Malaysian government to act and makes nonsense of claims that nothing wrong happened at 1MDB and that the United States Department of Justice (DoJ) suit is without merit.
If that were true, why are so many jurisdictions looking into the matter and the DoJ had to file two suits for monies used for purposes other than what it was raised for by 1MDB?
If that were true, why did Malaysia settle and agree to pay the Abu Dhabi-owned International Petroleum Investment Corporation (IPIC) in an arbitration done in London?
Can Putrajaya now honestly say everything is fine with 1MDB that it can give out RM690 million for corporate social responsibility work over the years?
And that none of its officials had mismanaged the company until it had to sell of its land, power and water utilities assets and change both management and auditors several times in its eight years of existence?
It is pathetic that to carry on the delusion that all is well with 1MDB by handing out charity and haj sponsorships. It is a lie to say that all the bad news about 1MDB is spun by the opposition.
The greatest lie is to believe 1MDB is doing well and all its monies are intact.
If that were true, then Yeo is a victim of perverted justice. His 54-month sentence is the longest meted out to date by a Singapore court on 1MDB-related charges.
Others convicted and jailed by Singapore, such as senior banker Yak Yew Chee and banker Yvonne Seah Yew Foong, must have also be victims of perverted justice if anyone is to believe the Malaysian story.
And was Singapore wrong to issue the highest fine of S$128,000 to Falcon Bank's ex-manager Jens Sturzenegger who was sentenced to 28 weeks' jail, for his role in the 1MDB saga?
Putrajaya has to act against those involved in the 1MDB scandal here. A thorough investigation is a start, declassifying the auditor-general's report is another. And beyond that, bringing people to justice.
If there is any scandal worth a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) now, it must be the 1MDB scandal. The rest of the world is taking action, but Putrajaya appears to fantasise an Arabian nights' tale that all is well. – July 12, 2017.

Chronicling my journey living with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA): looking back at what brought me here, processing the here and now, and considering the future.
Thursday, February 10, 2011
Inquiring Minds
The conversation moved on, but I'm still stuck in that moment of what would have been a better answer? What do I tell him, and when? I've seen book for kids about kids with JRA which explains why they are different and how to help them - but has anyone seen one on how to explain to your child that you have RA?
I want to provide the right answers at the right time. My right shoulder will need replacing soon enough (the left one was replaced almost 2 years ago) and I know that he will have more questions. It's just hard to find the right answers when I don't even know them...

I don't know what the answer is. I don't think I've explained a lot to my kids. Maybe Wren could write a children's book?
BUT... I think the goal of treatment is remission. You're obviously not there, so I hope your rheumy is still tweaking your treatment plan.

I assume your little one has fallen, scraped a knee, bumped his head?? Try explaining it simply.. do you remember when you tripped? And you head hurt you and it made you cry? Mommy is like that some days....etc
Don't over complicate it but be direct. Softening it up for him won't help in the future. You might be surprised as he may step up and help you when you are sore. Maybe offer to play a simple board game or card game with him.
Just give him extra hugs and he will know!!
