Got dating fatigue? It might be time to take a break.
Everyone can understand why it's a mistake to do your grocery shopping when you're starving. It's common sense: not only are you guaranteed to make poor and impulsive choices that don't serve you well, you'll also probably blow your budget and literally "pay the price later" for your indiscretions. Any time you combine foggy thinking and weakness with the strong pull of your baser instincts, you are setting yourself up for a painful "learning experience."
Sounds logical, but let's take it a step further. These are also the same reasons why you shouldn't be dating if you're not feeling nourished, satiated and grateful about yourself and your life. It's easy to have a snack before hitting the supermarket, but why do we find it so difficult to take a step back from the dating pool when we're feeling exhausted?
And how do you know when you're really ready? In order to help you confirm that you are indeed ready to date, I've created six simple check-in questions for you to ask yourself. If you check off the right answer to these six questions, you can feel confident that you're probably in a pretty good place mentally and emotionally — and that's likely to come across to your dates as far more attractive. This is what I call the "dating sweet spot", and it's a good indicator of when things are just about to line up for you. The following six questions will help give you clarity about were you are in the process:
1. Are you looking to get or are you ready to give?
People who show up in relationships with a primary goal of looking to "feel" a certain way have it backwards. That's a sure sign that you're in it for what you can get out of it rather than how you can contribute to and love another person. Only low-quality relationships are built on the premise that "as long as I get my needs met, we'll get along just fine. Otherwise, I'm out of here." A real, true, legendary and lifelong love is built on the notion of two people who care deeply, see the best in one another and serve each other's needs no matter what. Together, they find a way through any challenge. Can you see the difference?
2. Have you checked your baggage?
We've all had our share of drama, breakups, hurt feelings and blown opportunities. The critical question is: have you processed those events so there is no longer an emotional charge attached to them? Have you resolved the issues and, most importantly, learned from them? Can you think about the partner who cheated on you without getting angry all over again? Are you proud of how you've shown up in the past? Bottom line, if you still have unresolved issues from old experiences, it's important to take the time to process and heal before you bring someone else and their own possibly unresolved issues into the mix. That only complicates things even more.
3. Will you look for what's wrong or focus on what's right?
We always have a choice about how we view life, and the simple fact is we tend to find whatever we are looking for in a given situation. Angry people will tend to find a reason to be angry — no matter what is happening. Depressed people will find a reason to be depressed. Happy and grateful people tend to seek out and find "what's great" anywhere they look. Simply put, your normal outlook literally becomes a part of your identity. One of the strongest forces in the human personality is the need to stay aligned with our identity as we perceive it. In other words, when positivity is simply a part of who you are, your results will almost certainly improve in every context. Give it a try and see for yourself.
4. Do you know your value?
This is another area that sabotages people over and over again. Those who enter into relationships looking to be filled up by how their partner makes them feel will usually crash and burn, and sooner rather than later. Self worth doesn't come from the outside world. It's purely an inside job. Your partner, job, wealth, health or anything outside of you can disappear in an instant and while those things may be obtainable. They may not be sustainable. Over time, there will always be challenges of one sort or another in any relationship. They can either take you deeper or take you under. It's your job and yours alone to show up whole, complete and healthy.
5. Are you grateful for the past choices that got you to this point?
In life, gratitude is the great game-changer. Are you grateful for all the experiences in your past that brought you critical life lessons — even the painful ones? If you can't say yes to this, let me suggest strongly that it might be time to jump out of the dating pool for a while. Simply put, people who are still hurting (even if they don't necessarily know they're still hurting!) will continue to hurt others as well as themselves. Your journey is going to be one of healing or hurting, and it is primarily determined by your own emotional growth and consciousness. How conscious are you?
6. Are you ready to receive "The One?"
Are you ready to step up with everything you've got and hold nothing back? Are you willing to get beyond tit-for-tat games and horse-trading arrangements where everything is "fair" or even? Will you still find a way to love even when you are hurting, or disappointed, or maybe even angry? A true love that stands the test of time is about two people who both commit to doing what it takes to put the needs of their partner first and find a way to love no matter what. Now, that doesn't mean tolerating bad behavior but it does require a level of conviction, clarity and commitment. Are you up for that?
Okay, so what if you're not ready?
If your answers don't line up, it might be a good idea for you to take a break, get out of the dating pool and do some work on yourself to prepare more effectively. The fact is, results don't lie and you may not even even be aware you're self-sabotaging. Simply put, if you aren't prepared for a test, you will probably fail in dating and over time, the accompanying baggage and wounds get harder and harder to identify and clear out.
If you're in this place, I highly recommend you do some work with a coach or perhaps a counselor of some sort — ideally one who specializes in relationships and one who resonates with you. Of course, I also do this work and have an excellent track record of success with my clients. If you're ready to finally do what it takes and call in your love of a lifetime, I'd be honored and delighted to help you do that. Just contact me here to set up a a free, no obligation chat and when it feels right to you, we'll take it from there.

What can be said for people that artificially make things tough for themselves? Why would someone run outside on the icy roads in bone-chilling rain or in death-inducing heat with salt and dust baking into your sun-burned skin? Why do we run?
On Monday I had one of the more difficult runs I can remember: 6 miles easy with hill sprints, and then 2x20 second drills. The distance was doable. That's a normal run for me on a weekday. The hill sprints are awesome. I can pull my inner "Jerry Rice" out on demand. The drills at the end are refreshing. I love the looks I get from the kids walking their dogs, or the retirees looking through their bedroom windows as I do karaokes or skipping for distance. No it wasn't even the chilling freezing rain, the fact that I had a painful wind blowing into my face for a good 45 minutes of the run, or the fact that I was drenched through to my toes and fingers.
It was difficult because I began to doubt.
I began to tell myself that running faster is hard. That there is a barrier of PAIN that waits for me when I want to improve. That I can't achieve this goal that I am seeking. That I haven't trained well. I haven't eaten well. I haven't had the right mental attitude. I left my front door on Monday's run, thinking the enemy was outside; that the enemy was the world; that the enemy was the elements.
No. The enemy was me.
I'm a practicing Roman Catholic. I pray for many reasons and in many forms and styles. But I never pray for running. I never use the tools that have gotten me this far and apply it to running. I never pray for the runners, the race organizers, the volunteers. I never pray for my wife and family because they have helped me to be a runner. I have been simply animistic to this point in time. I have simply let my body worship at the Church of running with no spiritual commentary. If I have added anything, it is a bit of intellectual flowering in collecting numbers and setting target.
It may be too late for this race on Saturday, but I vow before all of you to find a technique that is suitable for me, which will help me visualize and be totally present in my running. I've approached my running as if I was a lab rat in an experiment.
Help me out. What do you do to visualize your running? How do you spiritualize your running? What books do you read? How do you prepare for running? How do you prepare for racing?

Cryptocurrency initiatives have to aim high if they want to get noticed in a market that is flooded with offerings and solutions to issues that can go completely unnoticed if they don't have a clear plan of action. In the case of AllStocks, they are aiming very high by trying to integrate the digital currency market with the Fiat currency system.
The AllStocks network is being built with two different types of stakeholders in mind who are looking to do business and get the best offerings of their respective systems. On one side there are a lot of shareholders and stock dealers who would love nothing more than partaking on the benefits of Blockchain technology. Some of them include low fees, powerful security settings, and transfers that don't have to go through any channels, regulations or extended time waits.
On the other side, many investors are looking to take advantage of some of the main benefits of the crypto market such as the high returns rates, the decentralized networks and the potential to get funding with a clear business plan. To please the needs of these stakeholders, AllStocks is margining traditional finance practices with Blockchain technology to create a network that can back up the value of a token utility with real-world assets.
To make the amalgamation work, there must be a structured architecture to the development process of the network and the technology behind it. AllStocks has planned strategies for all the stages of their system. We can learn about the work they have done right now by breaking down the system's architecture and explaining the necessary details of each stage. Let's take a look at them:
Exchange Services
Since digital currencies and Fiat money play a vital role in the dynamics of the AllStocks platform, the system will provide users with a native digital wallet and an account to handle Fiat money. The platform will also have its exchange service to trade, sell, and convert these assets based on the needs of users at any given time.
Open Blockchain
The need to make the system public, auditable and trustable relies heavily on the capacity of the network to keep everyone clean. The only way to make that happen is to keep the Blockchain network of AllStocks public and available to audits at any given moment by the parties involved in a specific transaction.
It's a verification system being put in place to make sure that asset-backed tokens keep their value at all moments. It's the link that connects the tokens offered on the AllStocks ecosystem to the real world. The tech also takes care of all the backstage process that takes place after transfer of ownership is issued between users.
App Development
Since the network is being developed using API coding, the users are welcome to create their apps in compliance with the ecosystem requirements to capitalize their asset-based tokens. Users will be able to trade with other platforms, handle funds from other wallets and process payments.
The AST Token
The AST token is the primary financial instrument inside the AllStocks ecosystem. The asset-based token will be the main bridge between digital currencies and Fiat financial assets. The parity of these currencies is planned to be on a one-to-one relationship, meaning that for each traditional assets a new token is minted. When the asset is dealt outside the platform, the token representing it is destroyed.
Transfer of Ownership
Each asset-based token can be traded in the open crypto market as long as the user certifies its value in Fiat currency with the stampers of the network. Once they verify it, the user can freely trade the token or hold on to it.
Fees and Regulations
As expected, any transaction made within the AllStocks network will generate fees that must be covered by the involved parties to keep the ongoing process of the network up to date and cover the costs of keeping the platform running. The system is also being developed with a series of regional algorithms that will help it comply with the laws issued by local governments or regulatory agencies.
The AllStocks network is doing work that has been perceived as daring and impossible by many entrepreneurs in the market. Only time will tell if their boldness pays off. If you want to learn more about their efforts you can visit :

Pre 2018-19 Commonwealth Budget - What Might Be In Store For The Superannuation System?
After a busy few years of regulatory change, the 2018-19 Commonwealth budget is shaping up to continue the trend as yet another important policy intersection for the Australian superannuation and pensions system.
While the details of the budget are a closely held secret until the evening Tuesday 8 May 2018, there are some things which we do know about the superannuation related policy announcements.
What we know
In the shadow of the ongoing Royal Commission, the Minister has announced plans to increase the severity of criminal and civil penalties for those convicted or found responsible for corporate and financial misconduct. Coupled with increases in regulatory powers and resources, these reforms are intended to act as a general deterrent to conduct which is illegal and inconsistent with community expectations.
The maximum size of self-managed superannuation fund (SMSF) membership will be advanced from four to six, and transfer in requests will be able to be initiated using the SuperStream (Superannuation Transaction Network) infrastructure. This may be relevant for both SMSF trustees and the strategic business planning of trustees of large superannuation funds as a reduced barrier to portability.
What to watch out for!
There have been indications from government that the current policy of gradual increases to the superannuation guarantee from 2021 to 12% in 2025 may be deferred further or even abandoned completely. The budget policy announcements should provide some clarity on this important question. Watch for a polarised and heated public debate on the merit of such a change if one is proposed.
A move to postpone or abandon increases to SG could be framed as a move to put more money in workers take home pay. However, the reality is more nuanced, with the relationship between SG rates and worker salary depending on the wording of the employment contract, timing of wage negotiation, and whether modern awards operate to protect minimum wage levels.
Growth in the gig economy and single worker businesses may see policy changes related to self employed, independent contractors and dependent contractors as a means of protecting the coverage of mandatory SG employer contributions.
The superannuation guarantee $450 minimum threshold may also be in the crosshairs as a means of ensuring coverage for low income workers, with advances in technology making the administration costs for employers mostly redundant.
We may also see moves to allow victims of domestic violence to satisfy a condition or release to enable access to some benefits. There have been suggestions that refinements to improving the operation of family law in superannuation and contribution splitting may be the subject of announcements on budget night.
There has been some suggestion that there may be further housing affordability related measures involving the superannuation system will be included in the budget. There may also be prospective restrictions on the use of Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangements (LRBAs) by SMSFs.
Personal and corporate income taxation rates
Reductions in the marginal taxation rates for corporations and individuals are also likely to be announced as part of the budget policy. This will impact superannuation funds, both in terms of payment administration where personal income tax is withheld, and fund accounting in relation to corporate tax and fund investments.
What might surprise
There are also some policy initiatives which are unlikely to feature on Tuesday night, however could surprise. Open banking and the Consumer Data Right might be extended from Banking to include superannuation and pension funds, however this may not come onto the agenda until after open banking is operational. There has also been calls for low income earners to receive additional government contribution support, and for the lost and inactive account threshold to be reduced back from $6,000 to $2,000.
It's always important the remember that many of the economic policy announcements in the Commonwealth Budget require legislation. The budget does set the policy tone for the next year though.

Breakout Gaming
Pros:Nice selection of games
No withdrawal limits
Cons:No live support
First Impression
This is a fairly new casino that is licensed in Curacao, and has a massive selection of games – over twenty software providers. They also include sports, fantasy sports, poker, and live table games.
Breakout Gaming payouts seem to be pretty quick. They also have a myriad of depositing methods as well.
They also have their own bitcoin currency: Breakout Coin. Breakout Coin (BRK) which is digital. Once you have opened an account in the casino you'll have access to this. BRK is traded on the open market which means that it has a limited supply – so the more people that use Breakout Coin, the higher its value.
Opening a casino account is rather easy – I opened mine in minutes and deposited via Neteller. One caveat – they have no live chat – only email support. This may be an issue for some folks.

It is important to carefully think about the things of value you want to take with you when planning a trip. A lot of people will say it is silly carrying around items of value when travelling especially if you cannot afford to lose said items. Isn't it absurd that you have to keep the notch down even with your dressing or those nice blings you already thinking of how to rock?? But we all know how tedious and worrisome it can be when planning a trip especially when you are trying out a new destination.
Well, all that great advice about keeping things down to a minimum is alright, but what happens when you really need to carry items of great value and you have to worry about how you will keep them safe. Depending on the purpose of your travel or line of work, you most certainly will have to carry at the very least some of these items for every time you travel out of country and others for even local travel.
- The basic stuff such as your money, passport or financial cards
- Some jewelry you probably want to wear for a special event during your travels
- Items to sell or replaced e.g artworks.. etc
- Expensive equipment that are customized or specialized e.g cameras e.t.c
- Prototypes for demonstration purposes
Let us share with you some of the tips we have discovered actually helps to keep your valuables substantially safe during travels.
1. Get Insurance before you leave home
It is typical to get your basic insurance for normal items that get misplaced, lost or stolen in transit. This insurance does not usually cover high end, customized or collectibles. It is also good to know that the Airline Coverage, normal Travel Insurance or Baggage coverage will cover the full cost of your expensive valuables as these have limits on their payout values. Well, items of certain value, within a specified limit might have a higher payout but you will have to have an accompanying original receipt! Like seriously???
2. Mail them – Coming or Going
Some high end stores offer the service of mailing items of value, most times it is better to go with this option as these stores have quite a bit of great insurance and delivery options. It makes sense to mail your valuable especially those in large proportions well before your travel and with a trusted courier that will take responsibility for its safety. This option is available for the return leg of your journey as well. It is by far the better choice rather than lugging, hefting or trying to juggle between staying awake or mentally alert in order to secure your valuables.
3. Use Locks to Secure Bags
When travelling especially via a route or airline you are not so familiar with, in fact this is especially for those using Luxurious buses; please always ensure that your bags are properly locked at least to give your bags some level of protection. It is normal to lose sight of your bags especially when you are checking them in for some minutes and although it is sad but this is our reality, some bags are tampered with!… Locking your bags makes it slightly difficult for just anyone to tamper with your bags and also trust us, your bag will hold no appeal to a grab snatcher or petty thief who is looking to score something while stacking bags.
4. Lock Valuables inside Checked–in Locked Bags
In the event that you have no choice but to leave your valuables in a checked-in bag, make sure that your valuables are secured in a locked bag on its own before putting them in your larger bag. It is unfortunate to say the least but there are several cases of valuables gone missing, so this offers the protection from common thievery.
5. Carry your Valuables – Don't pack them
The best way to carry large customized or specialized valuables is to make sure that you find a way to break it down into bits, bag them and carry with you at all times during the course of your journey. Once this is bagged, it is easier to put them on the floor under the seat in front of you or even stash them just in between your feet. For small items like cash, cards and passports, it is advisable to keep them hidden and safe in a money belt (there are loads of secure money belts out there these days). This way your valuables are on your person all the time.
Keep checking our blog as we bring you some really useful tips on how to secure your valuables and self during a travel.

Parkinsonia aculeata L. (Leguminosae: Caesalpinoideae) is a thorny leguminous shrub native to the hot and dry regions of North, Central and South America. In Australia, P. aculeata is recognized as one of the 20 worst weeds and considered a weed of national significance due to its impacts on the environment and agricultural production. Native-range surveys in Argentina revealed the presence of a stem-galling midge, Neolasioptera aculeatae Gagné (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) and two leaf-feeding moths: Eueupithecia cisplatensis Prout and Eueupithecia sp. 2. (Lepidoptera: Geometridae). After extensive field and laboratory host range studies, Eueupithecia spp. were approved for release in Australia for the biological control of Parkinsonia.

President Donald Trump's counselor Kellyanne Conway, during a contentious CNN interview Thursday, pointed out that it was former President Barack Obama's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms that decided not to regulate bump stock devices such as those used in Sunday night's deadly shootings in Las Vegas.
"It's in The New York Times today that it was President Obama's ATV in 2010 that decided not to regulate this device," Conway told CNN "New Day" anchor Chris Cuomo. "That should be part of the conversations and part of the facts that you put [out]."
According to the Times, two Texas companies, the ATF wrote that the product was a "firearm part and is not regulated as a firearm under the Gun Control Act or the National Firearms Act."
Bump stock devices are attached to semi-automatic weapons to allow them to fire shots more rapidly and act as an automatic weapon, which are illegal.
"I want to say something else," said Conway. "If you go and do a search, you will see this conversation is not being held until tragedies like this strike by those trying to be the loudest voices, and Hillary Clinton is talking about her book and not this, and people are still searching for missing loved ones, and she tweeted about guns one time this year. [Sen.] Bernie Sanders, zero times. [Sen.] Elizabeth Warren, zero times. They tweeted about Russia over 30 times, Sanders and Warren."
She then attacked CNN's "obsession with Russia," telling Cuomo that she know the "high-horse cavalry loves to run in and talk about it after the tragedies, but let's have a conversation. The more information we can get the better."
Cuomo argued back, telling Conway he was "tired" and wanted to "apologize in advance, a lot of this doesn't wash."
"All you need to know is it's legal," he told her. "That's all you need to know about it. Of course it was the Obama administration. Don't cheapen what happened in Las Vegas."
Trump, she told Cuomo, is focused on the tragedy and victims, and she accused Cuomo of trying to put "words in his mouth in mine" when he said Trump had wanted to have a "conversation" on the issue.
A number of Republican senators have said they'll look at the issue of bump stocks, while they are for the Second Amendment, she continued.
Trump was "incredibly candid and sympathetic yesterday" while visiting with victims in Las Vegas on Wednesday.
Conway also defended Trump's action in Puerto Rico, pointing out there are 15,000 people on the ground helping in the recovery efforts.
Conway also accused CNN of feeling an urgency about Russia and "phony baloney" collusion.
On Fox News' "Fox & Friends," Conway said Trump was "moved" by his visit with victims and first responders in Las Vegas.
"The president and the first lady have been on the ground literally shoulder to shoulder with those who are suffering and in need whether it's Texas, Florida, Louisiana, Puerto Rico, and certainly in the Las Vegas community yesterday," said Conway. "I think this is a moment when this president is calling us all to unify."
Conway continued that the Trump people saw in Las Vegas is the person she and others encounter every day, as he is a "very light-hearted and humorous man."
She also defended the relationship between Trump and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, following reports that the secretary had thought about stepping down in July.
"I was really struck yesterday by Secretary Tillerson's forceful and unequivocal push back toward these rumors, and then the president saying that he has quote felt confidence in Rex his secretary of state," she said.

Local Obituaries
Zach Ioerger put smiles on others' faces, professionally and personally
Friends called him Superman. His family knew him as a goofy dance dad. Nationally, the dental community knew him as the big, kind-hearted personality who did everything in his power to ensure free dental clinics ran smoothly.
What everyone will remember about Zach Ioerger, though, is his infectious smile — and his love for his daughter.
"He was luminant," said friend Yamir Lozada. "Guiding people with his bright smile. You couldn't help but to smile with him." Ioerger was best man at Lozada's wedding.
Ioerger, 28, died early Saturday in a crash with another car at the intersection of North Hillside and Douglas.
In both professional and personal circles, Ioerger was known as someone who wasn't afraid to do the hard work — and grin as he did it.
Ioerger was a program manager for the America's Dentists Care Foundation, an organization that helps organize and support dental clinics across the country. The foundation trucks dental equipment to various states, and program managers like Ioerger make sure that the large-scale clinics run smoothly.
"The typical feedback we got back about Zach is that he was all personality," said Bill Blasing, executive director of the foundation. "These clinics are not an easy thing to pull off, so having happy, smiling people around you is critical, and Zach was one of a kind."
On a GoFundMe page set up by his sister Elizabeth Ioerger for the family's funeral expenses, people from several states remembered Ioerger as a key person in setting up the dental clinics, helping to put healthy smiles on the underserved and uninsured. The foundation works closely with the Mission of Mercy program, and Ioerger flew as far as Alaska and Florida to help set up dental clinics.
Locally, Ioerger was perhaps best known as a dependable friend and as a loving father for his daughter Aylin.
His sister said Ioerger stopped at nothing to make sure his 7-year-old daughter "was on the right track." He brushed her hair and took her to dance class.
"He grew up with her," Elizabeth Ioerger said. "She helped him grow up to be such a good dad and she pushed him to be the dad that he was."
Lozada described Ioerger as a noble and selfless source of courage for him.
"He was an embodiment of what an excellent father should be," Lozada said. "Truth be told, I learned how to be a father because of Zach's superlative essence of being a father.
"Deep down, Zach truly cared and yearned for people to laugh with him," Lozada said. "That was his main objective, to instill joy in every person's life that he had the opportunity to meet. Whether it was in Wichita or if it was traveling with work or even online gaming, Zach had a significant impact on everyone he knew."
Such was his impact that hundreds of Ioerger's friends from Wichita and across the nation had raised $13,215 as of Thursday morning to help pay for his funeral expenses.
"He was a really sensitive teddy bear," Lozada said. "He was a big, 190-pound buff guy, but he was so sentimental. That was his love language. Helping people laugh."
Ioerger was born on May 1, 1990, in Wichita. He attended Wichita East High School and lettered in baseball. His sister said Ioerger was a lifelong athlete. When he wasn't at the pool swimming, he was playing indoor soccer. That's why it came as a surprise when a CT scan revealed that Ioerger had only one kidney. Elizabeth Ioerger said this was evidence of Ioerger's dedication to going the extra mile, even in adversity.
After high school, Ioerger briefly attended Butler Community College, then worked as an assistant manager at a local QuikTrip before beginning his job as program manager for the America's Dentists Care Foundation.
Visitation will be from 4 to 8 p.m. Friday at Old Mission Mortuary Chapel, 3424 E. 21st St. The funeral will be at 10:30 a.m. Monday at the same chapel.
Ioerger is preceded in death by his grandmother Pauline Williamson and half-brother Malachi Thornton. He is survived by his mother, Suzanne Ioerger; his father, Michael Thornton; his sister, Elizabeth; his half-brothers, Kadin Jabara, Andrew Schwartz and Elijah Thornton; and his daughter, Aylin Ioerger.

Egypt's prosecutor general has ordered the detention of former President Hosni Mubarak, ahead of an investigation into corruption and abuse allegations.Reports say Mr Mubarak, 82, is in hospital after reportedly suffering heart problems. His detention order will be in place for 15 days.
His sons Alaa and Gamal have also been detained amid allegations of corruption and violence, police say.
Mr Mubarak stood down in February after a popular uprising against his rule.
Since then, tens of thousands of protesters have staged weekly Friday protests in Cairo's Tahrir Square.
They want the ousted president put on trial for the deaths of protesters and alleged abuse of power during his 30-year rule.
Official records show that 360 people were killed during the protests, but rights groups put the figure at about 800 dead and hundreds more wounded.
Reports also say the general public is suspicious at the timing of Mr Mubarak's heart problems and worried that ill-health, combined with old age, could prevent him from being tried.
A post on the prosecutor general's Facebook page on Wednesday: "The prosecutor general orders the detention of former President Hosni Mubarak and his sons Gamal and Alaa for 15 days pending investigation after the prosecutor general presented them with the current state of its ongoing investigations."
The announcement came a day after Mr Mubarak had been admitted to hospital with heart problems, although reports indicated that he was well enough to undergo questioning.
The former Egyptian leader had been keeping a low profile in Sharm el-Sheikh, a Red Sea resort, after fleeing to his holiday villa there when he was overthrown.
Late on Tuesday, a crowd of about 2,000 people had gathered outside the hospital, demanding that the sons be arrested.
As a police van with drawn curtains took away the two brothers for questioning, the crowd pelted it with water bottles, stones and their flip-flops, the AP news agency reported.
On Wednesday morning the pair were transferred to Tora prison complex in Cairo, home to other fallen officials and some of the country's most notorious political prisoners.
Speculation that the younger son, Gamal, was being groomed to take over from his father helped to galvanise Egypt's protest movement.
Gamal, an investment banker, was a high-ranking member of President Mubarak's ruling party. His close associates were billionaires and held top positions in the ruling party and the government.
Mr Mubarak, along with his sons and their wives, have been banned from leaving the country. The family's assets have been frozen.
In a pre-recorded audio message on Sunday, he broke his silence of the last two months to say his reputation and that of his sons had been damaged and he would work to clear their names.
On Tuesday, Egyptian soldiers and police moved into Tahrir Square in Cairo and ended a sit-in by protesters demanding civilian rule and swifter prosecution of former officials.

Map of Biology
Biology is the subject that studies life in all its forms, from the simple cell through to all the animals that inhabit the planet. In this map I lay out the subject of biology and how all of the sub-disciplines are related to each other: microbiology, genetics, bioengineering, anatomy, physiology, medicine, neuroscience, ecology, zoology to name but a few.
Biology spans the scales, from biophysics and biochemistry studying the basic elements of life, to the study of whole ecosystems and the environment. If there is one word that describes biology, it is complexity. There is a huge amount we still don't understand about how life works, how it started and how it ended up with us.

LeBron James and Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat are headed to the NBA All-Star Game together, and Derrick Rose gave the Chicago Bulls their first starter since Michael Jordan.
They will be joined in the Eastern Conference starting lineup by Amare Stoudemire, who will become the first New York Knicks player to start in nearly two decades, and Orlando center Dwight Howard, the leading vote-getter in the conference with nearly 2.1 million.
The Lakers� Kobe Bryant earned his 13th straight All-Star selection for the Feb. 20 game at his home arena. He is one shy of the record held by Jerry West, Shaquille O�Neal and Karl Malone.
Bryant, a three-time MVP of the All-Star Game, was the overall leading vote-getter with more than 2.3 million.
The other starters announced yesterday were Hornets guard Chris Paul, forwards Kevin Durant of Oklahoma City and Carmelo Anthony of Denver and Houston center Yao Ming, who is injured and will be replaced on the roster by a player of Commissioner David Stern�s choosing.
James and Wade, who both received more than 2 million votes from fans, will become the first set of teammates to start for the East since Wade and O�Neal represented the Heat in the 2007 game in Las Vegas.
Rose beat out Celtics guard Rajon Rondo to earn his first All-Star start and the first by a Chicago player since Jordan started the 1998 game.
Fans voted for the starters, but the reserves will be chosen by the head coaches in their respective conferences. Their votes must be submitted to the league office by Tuesday, and the announcement will come Thursday night.
Stoudemire has revitalized the Knicks since arriving from Phoenix in the summer. He beat out perennial starter Kevin Garnett for the second forward spot and is just the fifth Knicks player to be selected a starter since fans began voting in 1974-75. Patrick Ewing was the last one to start in 1992, though he was elected again in 1997 but couldn�t play because of a strained left groin.
In a rarity in All-Star balloting, the fans nailed it in the East. Stoudemire, James and Wade all rank among the league�s top five in scoring, and Rose and Howard are right there with them as MVP candidates.
Wade was the MVP of last year�s game in Dallas Cowboys Stadium and hit the winning shot in the East�s 2006 victory in Houston.
The West vote was flawed by the election of Yao, who despite missing nearly the entire season continues to earn a huge vote total from his native China. West Coach Gregg Popovich of the San Antonio Spurs will pick one of his reserves to start.
KNICKS TOP HEAT IN GARDEN: Danilo Gallinari and Landry Fields made consecutive 3-pointers in the final 1:18, and the Knicks rallied to beat the Heat 93-88 last night in New York, ending Miami�s recent dominance in the series.
Stoudemire scored 24 points for the Knicks, when he was often the only one in a white jersey to make a shot for three quarters. But Gallinari was huge in the fourth, when New York finally contained Wade after he was 14 of 15 through 36 minutes.
Gallinari finished with 20 points and Fields added 19 points and 13 rebounds to help the Knicks win their second straight after a six-game skid.
Wade, fighting migraines that forced him to wear goggles, had 34 points and 16 rebounds but missed all seven shots in the fourth quarter. James added 24 points but was off most of the night, finishing 7 of 24 from the field.
The Heat, playing without Chris Bosh because of a sprained left ankle, lost for the fifth time in six games. They managed only 15 points in the fourth quarter as their seven-game winning streak against the Knicks was snapped.
MAYO SUSPENDED AFTER POSITIVE DRUG TEST: The NBA has suspended guard O.J. Mayo 10 games without pay for violating the league and union�s anti-drug program with a positive test.
The league announced the suspension yesterday for Mayo�s positive test for dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Mayo�s suspension will start tonight when the Grizzlies visit Philadelphia, and he will be able to return Feb. 15, also against the 76ers in Memphis.
Mayo said in a statement released by the team that he is extremely disappointed he will miss 10 games as the Grizzlies are making a push for the playoffs. He blamed an over-the-counter supplement that he didn�t know was banned by the NBA for the positive test, but a team spokesman said Mayo declined to say which supplement he used.
JACKSON AGAIN SAYS THIS IS HIS LAST SEASON: Los Angeles Lakers Coach Phil Jackson has reiterated this will be his last season working the sideline.
Coming into this season with a chance for an unprecedented fourth �three-peat� and his second with the Lakers, Jackson at the time called the 2010-11 campaign his �last stand.�
In an interview yesterday with ESPN-Los Angeles, Jackson said, �Most everybody believes I�m not going to fulfill this �last stand� promise and I will come back and coach again, but it really is� my last season. �I really want to do this for myself.�
However, the 11-time NBA champion acknowledged in September that he�s still uncertain whether he�ll retire after this season, as he repeatedly vowed last summer when he agreed to return with a pay cut.
FANS VOTE FOR SKILLS PARTICIPANTS: Fans will decide which guards will show their skills on All-Star Saturday night.
The NBA announced yesterday that the Skills Challenge would be expanded to five participants and fans would vote for four of them.
Players eligible through the �choose your squad� program are Derrick Rose, John Wall, Russell Westbrook, Tyreke Evans, Derek Fisher, Tony Parker, Baron Davis and Stephen Curry.
Chris Paul, who has twice competed in the event, which is sponsored by Taco Bell, will be the fifth participant in Los Angeles and serves as spokesman for the program.
Fans can vote at www.NBA.com/chooseyoursquad through Feb. 14.

2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom Edition Review – Although it's behind the times as for technology goes, the 2017 Jeep Wrangler is still one of the best go-anywhere, do-anything lorries that money could acquire. From the stripped-out Sporting activity version completely as much as the Jeep hard Rock Rubicon, there's a Jeep for each off-road circumstance. Just about unstoppable on the path; distinct sturdy personality; there's a 2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom for a variety of tastes; extensive factory and also aftermarket parts sustain; fun to drive in its own special means.
2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom Review
Accident examination ratings don't match even more standard vehicles; long braking ranges; on-road handling and also overall comfort are lacking; soft top is hard to operate and also provides little safety; the most recent safety as well as modern technology features are lacking; below average fuel economic situation compared to the majority of modern-day crossovers. For the 2017 Wrangler, Jeep has added new optional LED headlights as well as foglights, as well as a Jeep Wrangler Winter bundle that consists of remote beginning, heated seats and also all-weather flooring mats.
2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom Exterior
Of all the brand-new automobiles on sale for 2017 you 'd be hard-pressed to find one that's even more of a throwback compared to the 2017 Jeep Wrangler. It adheres to its original style more than probably anything else on the road, as well as for Jeep perfectionists, that's just the method they like it. The Wrangler is a 2- or four-door off-road-friendly SUV that makes very few concessions for comfort. Certain, it can connect your iPhone using Bluetooth or tune you right into satellite radio if you please, but the Wrangler's main objective in life is to get you positions that basic crossovers or 2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom SUV just can't go.
2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom Redesigns
Though the 2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom old-school approach could be attractive, there are some significant disadvantages to keep in mind. It has a rough flight, middling fuel economy and several of the most affordable security scores when traveling today. What's even more, the seats typically aren't extremely comfy, the infomercial system isn't really as enticing as more upgraded variations from Jeep, and also it's just plain loud on the freeway, making it tough to take on lengthy journey.
2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom Concepts
With all that stated, somehow, we 'd still advise the Wrangler. It has undeniable beauty and also is one of minority cars left that will not nickel and dime you with animal comforts you might not want. It additionally holds its value remarkably well, also several years later on. If you're searching for other alternatives, though, you could check out the Toyota 4Runner. It also has a high resale worth as well as is a lot more versatile and habitable SUV, though it's not as capable off-road. Jeep also uses the off-road-ready Jeep Trailhawk trim degree for its Jeep Cherokee and Jeep Grand Cherokee crossover SUVs. But also for a throwback automobile that remains real to its past, there's still just one Jeep Wrangler.
2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom Interiors
The 2017 Jeep Wrangler is available in a set of body designs: the two-door, four-passenger 2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom and also the four-door, five-passenger Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. Each is offered in three core trim degrees– Sporting activity, Jeep Sahara as well as Rubicon– with extra special versions that are based upon those trims. A vinyl exchangeable roofing system is typical on both, but a hardtop with quickly removable panels above the pole positions is available. Do not expect numerous animal conveniences in the base Sport trim level. It consists of 16-inch steel wheels, on/off-road tires, a full-size spare tire, skid plates, tow hooks, foglights, removable doors, a fold-down windshield, hands-on mirrors and secures, complete steel doors with crank home windows, cruise control, a height-adjustable chauffeur seat, towel upholstery, a tilt-only steering wheel, a one-piece folding, tumble-forward backseat, and an eight-speaker sound system with a CD player and also an auxiliary sound jack. The Limitless version obtains a bigger gas container, air-conditioning and also a 60/40-split folding, tumble-forward seat.
2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom Engine
Every 2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom is powered by a 3.6-liter V6 engine that generates 285 horsepower as well as 260 pound-feet of torque. Four-wheel drive is typical as well as includes high- and low-range tailoring. The Rubicon showcases distinctly brief tailoring and an upgraded transfer case with an extra-low crawl ratio. A six-speed manual transmission with hillside start assist is typical, while a five-speed automated with both hill start help as well as hill descent control is optional. Towing is rather weak at a maximum of 2,000 extra pounds for the Wrangler and also 3,500 extra pounds for the Unlimited.
2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom Test Drive
In others blog efficiency screening, a two-door Wrangler with a handbook went from absolutely no to 60 mph in a quick 6.9 secs, which is pretty astonishing offered the sluggish acceleration of past Wranglers. The larger 2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom with the automatic required 8.1 secs. The last Toyota 4Runner Path we examined made the exact same sprint in 7.8 secs.
2017 Jeep Wrangler Freedom Safety

Summer is here and with it comes dance recital flower sales for Trisha's Flowers! Recital time always floods the barn (and the cooler) with color as we gather as many types of flowers as we can to make beautiful bouquets for the girls. A couple days before the recital we fill the counter with all our blooms and go down the line creating mixed bunches with a variety of colors and textures. We were excited to use so many of our own homegrown flowers this year including snap dragons, larkspur, queen annes lace, and hydrangea.
The day of the recital we set up our flowers and wait for parents, grandparents, and friends to choose the perfect bouquet for their dancer. It's so fun to be a part of the excitement and beauty of the evening. The girls are so happy to receive their flowers after a year of hard work on their dance routines.
On our way home one of our favorite things to do is to stop at a fast food restaurant and give the drive-through cashier a leftover rose or two from our flower filled night. It always takes them by surprise and we love to watch their face light up when they receive the unexpected gift.

One of the oldest sales strategies is to reward repeat purchases. An old school example would be your neighborhood coffee shop that had a punch card telling you that after you buy nine lattes you'll get the 10th for free. A more recent example would be when checking out at Petsmart or Petco (or thousands of other retailers) they will ask for your phone number, pull up your profile, and offer the lowest price possible on every bag of dog food.
If you're thinking of running a loyalty program I've put together some quick tips.
Do not call it a loyalty program.
These programs are not the definition of loyalty. These programs are about bribery. You are paying your customers to be repeat buyers. Treat them as such. Don't paint a happy picture over it. People are smarter than that.
Instead I would brand the program after the business. Donny's Bike Shop Carbon Club or Donny's Bike Shop Deals.
Make it digital.
Having your customers carry a punch card is silly. Put their purchases in your POS system and track it digitally. When it is time for them to receive their tenth inner tube free, just tell them. Customers will thank you for tracking the little things and will recognize the value of giving you repeat business.
Don't ignore the data.
The primary value for Petsmart and Petco is not in having a repeat customer, that is a byproduct. The big value is in having thorough data of their customers' shopping habits. By recording their customers purchases they will have a detailed understanding of what inventory to carry, when people or more likely to buy dog toys, when people are likely to test a new brand of food, and so. No reason why the same data can't work for bike shops.
Consider having the customer buy in.
Rather than discounting for loyalty, Amazon sells loyalty through their Amazon Prime membership. For $79/year (soon t be more) membership gets you access to all sorts of rewards including free or discount shipping, free streaming of movies, and other discounts.
In a bike shop you could sell a quarterly or monthly membership package that gets people buying now for value given later.
What are some loyalty program you run? If you have a moment to comment or share it would great to hear from you. -Donny

One of the greatest shifts in business history is currently unfolding. A generational transformation is underway that will open the door to an unprecedented opportunity for impact for Millennials and their organizations.
You can gain a significant advantage by both recognizing and seizing it. It begins with organizations of all types clamoring to attract quality talent. But beyond attracting talent how organizations respond to this generational transformation may well predict not only future success but survival.
As Baby Boomers exit the work force in record numbers Millennials will represent 40% of the total workforce by 2020. This generational shift is creating the largest gap between the knowledge and experience of current leaders to that of future leaders in modern business history.
Organizational effectiveness and success rises and falls with leadership. Leaders are the difference makers in great organizations. This creates the opportunity that defines the problem.
The state of organizational leadership preparedness:
- Only 40% of businesses believe their "identified high-potentials" can meet their future business needs. Identified is the key word here because in many cases organizations have no proven process for identifying "high-potentials".
- 85% have an urgent need to discover and add employees with leadership potential.
- 47% report significant gaps in knowledge between current and future leaders as a critical issue.
- Unfortunately because of unpreparedness "bad bosses" are rising to positions of responsibility and influence. A circumstance that exacerbates the challenge of talent development and hurts organizational performance.
What about talent retention?
Beyond facing a leadership deficit organizations are also staring at a retention problem. The most recent Deloitte Millennial Survey reveals even if an organization is attracting great talent there is a strong likelihood they not staying for long.
- 25% of Millennials expect to leave their current job in less than a year.
- 66% plan to leave in two to five years.
- 71% are unhappy with how their leadership skills are being developed and believe they are being overlooked for potential leadership positions.
Senior leadership (largely Baby Boomers—born1946 to 1964 and Gen X's born 1965 to 1980) know something Millennial's (born 1981 to 2000) have likely been told but have largely ignored in their rush to the corner office— It takes 20 months to develop a high-potential employee into a mid-level manager and 38 months for senior level of positions.
Victim or Victor?
The need for leaders will is likely to never be greater than it will be over the ten years. If you are a Millennial or the parent of a Millennial, the question is what is the best course of action to take advantage of this opportunity?
Alvin Toffler, the iconic futurist, said, "The illiterate of the 21st Century will not be those who cannot read or write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn." The victims will be those who are unwilling to learn and hold tightly to the belief their employer owes them something. Organizations would be wise to build and execute great development plans. Unfortunately they just might not be willing or capable of doing it.
The shift in mindset from victim to victor is two letters. You choose to be a victor. Victors will be the those Millennials who embrace a teachable spirit, take responsibility for their personal and professional leadership development and build a plan to execute it.
By nurturing a teachable spirit Millennials can more rapidly develop the leadership qualities that will allow them to stand out and step into the leadership positions they covet. A UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School study, How to Accelerate Leadership Development, identified:
Five Timeless Millennial Leadership Competencies
- Ethics and integrity.
- Drive for results.
- Communicates effectively.
- Strategic thinking/insight.
- Building and maintaining relationships.
You can develop these competencies without the aid and support of an employer. And if you possess these qualities and can demonstrate them you'll attract a lot of attention. Everything rises and falls on leadership. No one is a born leader. Anyone can grow as a leader and increase their personal and professional value by becoming a student of leadership.
Four Leadership Strategies for Millennials
- Develop a mentoring relationship with a great leader(s)—preferably in the organization you are working in or one you aspire to work at.
- Don't expect things to be fair. Fair is not a strategy. There is no true measure of fairness for people development and selection. 77% of the time your readiness will be based on the subjective recommendation of your manager. Don't compare yourself to anyone else. Simply make your own excellent capabilities and contributions your standard.
- Grasp the fact that this radical shift in economic structure and talent demand is a result of technology. It will change how work is done and what will be valued in the future. It is likely we will see many of these changes falsely categorized under the umbrella of fairness. But understand it is structural, foundational and rolling into the future like a bullet-train—fair or not. Take the time to read Race Against the Machine: How the Digital Revolution is Accelerating Innovation, Driving Productivity, and Irreversibly Transforming Employment and the Economy by Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee to fully understand the issue, implications and remedy.
- Focus on what you can do to develop these competencies outside of company supported training and development. Companies commonly identify self-work and self-mastery as the primary means for developing the first two competencies. If you expect your company to be the sole champion of your leadership development you will be disappointed and left behind.
Learners will inherit the earth!
Eric Hoffer, Presidential Medal of Freedom winner, said, "In times of change, learners inherit the earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped, to deal with a world that no longer exists."
This generational transformation is changing the face of leadership. Those who embrace a teachable spirit will hold a distinct advantage. By learning the art and craft of leadership they will be easily identified as the leaders of the future.

Fence Building Tools
Fencing tools need not be expensive or state of the art. We have installed many fences with nothing but hand tools. A tractor mounted auger or post pounder can make the job much easier, but much of the work will need to be done by hand in the end. It is important to buy good quality tools and properly maintain them. Cheap tools will only make for more work. We have found NorthernTool.com to a a good source of tools.
A fence can be built with basic hand tools. It is important to obtain high quality tools. Purchasing discount tools is usually an exercise in frustration. Not only do they not last as long, they seldom work as well.
Keep your tools clean, and in good repair and they will last for a very long time.
In these pages we will be installing a fence with nothing but hand tools. Always buy the best tools that you can find. Building fences is a demanding job. Quality tools will last much longer, and will make the job easier to complete. We have found NorthernTool.com to be a good source of tools.
A tamping bar is essential for setting a corner post tight. It serves double purpose in helping to break up hard or rocky soil.
A good crimping tool is essential for both building a strong fence and for making fence repairs.
Optional tools include:

(Volume 24-8)
By Micaal Ahmed

In 2011, Seaspan Shipyards won the non-combat package of work for Canada's National Shipbuilding Strategy (NSS), and since then, the North Vancouver-based shipyard has been at the forefront of this ambitious program. "For a maritime nation like Canada, the NSS is a nation-building program that enjoys all-party support," says Tim Page, Seaspan Shipyards' Vice-President for Government Relations.
The NSS is a 30-year-long program that will see the construction of the next generation of ships for Canadian Coast Guard and the Royal Canadian Navy. This work will be accomplished by two Canadian shipyards, allowing Canada to benefit economically while building the skills and capabilities required for a sovereign shipbuilding industry.
After "decades of relative inactivity, the NSS, through a planned, long-term production schedule, will eliminate the boom and bust cycles that defined past federal shipbuilding programs," says Page. "Although in its early stages, [the NSS] is already providing thousands of jobs and generating hundreds of millions of dollars in economic activity across the country. It is transforming our shipbuilding and marine industry sectors to meet Canada's long-term ambitions."
Since its selection as Canada's non-combat shipbuilder, according to Page, Seaspan is now:
Operating from a purpose-built shipyard in North Vancouver that is the most modern of its kind in North America, having invested $170 million of its own money to do so, not a penny of which came from (either federal or provincial) government coffers;
Creating a generation of qualified, well-paid Canadians by hiring and training hundreds of tradespeople from diverse backgrounds in the practice of modern, modular shipbuilding;
Developing a marine sector ecosystem across the country through predictable supply chain opportunities that is enabling companies to expand their operations; investing in technology, people and equipment; and exploring international business opportunities;
Establishing a Centre of Excellence on Canada's West Coast for shipbuilding and ship repair that is putting Canada back on the global marine map as a reliable, capable and competitive option; and
Building the first three Offshore Fisheries Science Vessels (OFSVs) for the Canadian Coast Guard under the NSS, the first of which is scheduled for launch in December of this year.
"Suffice to say, Seaspan is fully committed to, and focused across a wide spectrum of activities to bring life and real work to the National Shipbuilding Strategy," says Page. "We have made significant progress and had a real, demonstrable impact on the Canadian economy in the early years of the NSS program's 30-year lifespan."
One of the most vital vessels to come out of Seaspan's shipyards as part of the NSS will be the Joint Support Ship (JSS); it will be the third class of vessels to be built at Vancouver Shipyards, following the OFSV and the Offshore Oceanographic Science Vessel (OOSV) programs.
"Projected to have a 30-year service life, the JSS will be the heart of the RCN fleet. Once built, JSS will serve as a critical component of Canadian and allied task groups, deployable to any theatre and under any threat environment with self-defence, survivability, replenishment and ice capabilities. JSS will be equipped with NATO standard medical, surgical and dental facilities and a NATO-compliant encrypted communications suite," states Page.
"For JSS, we are currently under contract, and working in close collaboration with the Royal Canadian Navy, to perform the design and production engineering work required to update the original design to Canadian requirements and for production in our shipyard. It is through this exercise that we will generate a realistic idea of the number of labour hours and material costs required to build the vessels," says Page. "We are also currently under contract to go to market to purchase equipment for the JSS that requires a longer lead time to arrive in the shipyard. We are well underway on this important program for the Canadian Navy."
Through its work on the JSS Program Seaspan is delivering a vital capability to the Canadian Navy and creating jobs and economic opportunities across the country.

The works in this tableau are experiments, perhaps prototypes for the future. Created in the last two months, this process has been vastly different from my usual long, planned, labor intensive pieces that typically have the phrase "ongoing" somewhere in the subtext. There is a remarkable freedom in working without hesitation and trying out new technology that I've shied away from because of its lack of the hand. I hope to revitalize both my ways of making and the reasons for doing so with thoughtful economy.
In relation to the Time theme of this exhibition, these works are influenced by the current political environment of The United States of America.
