Japan admits to failure of nuclear plant safeguards
JAPAN'S government has admitted its safeguards were insufficient to protect a nuclear plant against the earthquake and tsunami that crippled the facility and caused it to spew radiation.
The struggle to contain radiation at the Fukushima Daiichi complex has unfolded with near-constant missteps – the latest including t hree workers drenched with radioactive water despite wearing supposedly waterproof suits.
The March 11 t sunami t hat slammed into Japan's northeast, wiping out towns and killing thousands of people, knocked out power and backup systems at the coastal nuclear power plant.
'' Our preparedness was not sufficient,'' Chief Cabinet secretary Yukio Edano told reporters. '' When the current crisis is over, we must examine the accident closely and thoroughly review the safety standards.''
The mission to stabilise the power plant has been fraught with setbacks, as crews have dealt with fires, explosions and radiation scares in the frantic bid to prevent a complete meltdown.
Highly toxic plutonium was the latest contaminant found seeping into the soil outside the plant.

What: Kegel's Inn Fish Fry
When: Friday, January 31, 2013
Cost: $11 - $13
Go ahead and get it out of your system. Yes, the restaurant is called Kegel's. There's an apostrophe. This restaurant can call itself anything it wants because their food is absurdly delicious.
Kegel's Inn is a German beer hall, touting themselves as the most authentic German beer hall in Milwaukee. I wouldn't doubt it. The beer hall and restaurant was opened in 1924 and I don't believe it's changed a bit since then. The ambiance is second to none. Thick, dark wooden tables. Murals of drunken peasants lining the walls. We had a late reservation (well, late for us old folks) at 8:00. There was a line of people waiting to be seated. Luckily, my husband had made a reservation. When he called to make the reservation, Jim Kegel, the owner kindly took the reservation, as well as the follow up calls to change our reservation. Twice. When we walked in, we were immediately guided to our table.
Kegel's: A place for friends.
John G, Jess, John W and Kathleen joined us for this amazing meal. For fish, we had the options of the basic fish fry, which was haddock, perch or walleye. Jess, Kathleen and I tried the perch, Adam had the haddock, and the Johns had the walleye. While I didn't get to try the walleye, the perch and the haddock were outstanding. Contrary to many of the fish fries we've been to, the fish was "lightly breaded". The breading was tasty, yet gave you the opportunity to really taste the fresh fish. There were a number of potato options to accompany the fish fry and most of us went with the handmade potato pancakes, which came with the obligatory apple sauce. Those who ordered the fries were slightly jealous of those of us who ordered the potato pancakes. Kegel's was absolutely a delight and received two thumbs up from everyone at our table. This may be in the top running for best fish fry. Look at me. Obviously the food was good if I haven't even mentioned the beer yet! Kegel's Inn has a wonderful assortment of German style beers. Jess and I had the Spaten Lager, which was served in a super classy beer glass and went refreshingly well with the fish. John G had a mug of a German lager, natch. If you're looking for a satisfying fish fry in Milwaukee, this is it! Kegel's: Racy name, delicious food.

(Scene: The Miscellaneous Soup writing office. Zarion is examing a cardboard box, Tigerboy is reading a book. Meanwhile, a drunk monkey is banging on a typewriter, as ten or eleven men and women watch Saturday Night Live and periodically write down ideas.)
Zarion: Wow, this is cool!
Man No. 1: Huh? Sorry, we're creating another version of Wayne's World.
Woman No. 5: How about, "Brady's Business?"
Man No. 3: Nah…
Woman No. 4: What about……Payne's Palace?
Everyone: Perfect!
Tigerboy: (to the monkey) Hey, BoBo, how's that music video coming? (reads script) Let's see….Psy's Gangnam Style plus Psyduck from Pokemon…Psymon Style! PERFECT!
Zarion: Yo, peeps! New toy to play with! We can rip off SNL later! (opens box) What's a Wii?
Tigerboy: A WII???? I LOVE these! You can move your body, and it controls your game avatar.
Drunk Monkey: (chews box)
Women No. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Men 1, 2, 3,4,5: NO, BOBO!
(BoBo is ushered out of the room. Meanwhile, the Wii floats out of the box.)
Zarion: SWEET! This is awesome sauce!
Tigerboy: Zarion, I don't think this is a good idea. Also, who says 'awesome sauce' anymore? LOOK OUT!
(The wire is strangling Zarion!)
Zarion: Someone..please…help….I'm your boss!
(No one does anything. The writers stand there, awkwardly.)
Zarion: Don't you care about giving the people laughter through sketches?
Woman No. 3: Yeah, that's the thing. These sketches aren't actually funny. That last "News Update" bit made me want to throw up.
Male No. 2: Frankly, I only took this job, because I thought I would, for once, not have to work with animals! I hate animals! (looks at Tigerboy) No offense.
Tigerboy: None taken. I have a human form, but I only use it for spy missions.
Zarion: R-raises…
(The writers converge on Zarion to grab the cable. Tigerboy moves to stop them.)
Tigerboy: NO! The protective covering is slipping off! It'll fry all of you!
(The writers are zapped to death, leaving only Tigerboy and a still-asphyxiated Zarion in the room. He dies, and is absorbed and eaten by the Wii.)
Tigerboy: AHHHHHH! Wait, I have a healing factor. You can't actually kill me.
(Wii looks around. It makes little beeping noises.)
Tigerboy: Sorry, no, not the monkey. He's our head writer.
(Wii looks sad.)
Tigerboy: Aww, don't be sad. Look, there's some nice interns in the hallway. Second door to the left.
(The Wii leaves. Tigerboy is the only one left in the room.)
Tigerboy: ……Wow, this sketch is dark. I guess this teaches the writing crew not to try to steal ideas from MadTV. That show was cancelled for a reason. I'm just going to read. No funny ending here. Only fright, a little horror, and some sleepiness. Bye.
(Screams are heard, as the Wii eats the interns. The camera slowly turns off.)
Tigerboy: Wait, one more thing! Hey, Camera Joe! Come over here. (Camera shuffles forward slightly.) Without the camera. (gives Camera Joe money) Thanks. I needed to get everyone else out of the way. (He and Camera Joe, with the camera, leave. The room is empty. Slowly, a ghost appears.)
Ghost: Hello, people. I would just like to tell you that a parody of this awful caliber will never happen again. The crew just watched the Will Ferrell as Ted Kaczynski at his class reunion sketch. It's dark, and hardly funny. So…see ya. Everything will be back to normal by tomorrow, I promise. The writers had a really big party last night. You don't want to know what happened. So, bye. Ghost out. Or, rather, E.C. Toplasm out. (evil grin) You don't kick me out of the show, and live to tell the tale. (Evil laugh. Fade to black.)

But what many people Will not realise is this is definitely among the established reasons for that products and a little something the brand really promotes.
Using mint aromatically and internally has actually been a well-liked go-to for nausea. A number of people use Vicks by rubbing a small line less than their noses or making a facial steam to inhale. The minty/menthol scent is read to quell queasy tummies.
So, we did somewhat investigation and came up with a unique Alternative – and no, it's not your Mr. Clean up Magic Eraser!
+) You'll get success equal to or a lot better than any medical procedures—without the scary needles, scalpels or significant selling price tags!
To avoid this type of problem, the jockeys and Expert racers rub some volume of Vicks suitable underneath the nostrils from the horses, appropriate right before a race, so which the horse can only scent Vicks. This enables the horses to deal with the race instead of get distracted via the odour ponies along with other horses.
So anything that smells even a bit of Vicks should have the cat staying faraway from it. So in the event you apply Vicks on tables, Home windows, doorways, walls and so forth, just rub some quantity of Vicks in excess of them as well as your cat will stay away from it. But Guantee that you don't apply an excessive amount of Vicks or else the cat can get vulnerable to the scent after which Vicks might be a missing induce with the scratching.
There are several points within our houses which we (read through: mothers) use for things that are fully unique from the things they are initially purported to be utilized for. Moms are generally great that way to get the very best outside of anything. So once we speak about multi-practical issues from our households, Vicks Vapor Rub can be a shocking but a staple identify. Vicks Vapor Rub, much better referred to as Vicks, is a mentholated ointment that may be employed for suppressing cough. As kids, We've got all experienced our encounters using this type of ointment once we obtained chilly, cough or fever. Our moms would rub it on our chests plus the odor of menthol generally created us feel superior instead of to neglect, drowsy likewise.
Dab slightly of Vicks VapoRub on a cotton ball and spot it in the ear for numerous hrs, quite a few occasions per day. This tends to assist remove the agony however it will never crystal clear up an an infection.
"eDrugSearch.com is an excellent web site to buy prescription drugs. I've always observed the best rates at this Website for medication. I saved a lot of cash by obtaining through this Web-site."
Prior to intending to bed, apply a thick layer of VapoRub in the balls of one's toes and heels. Massage into calluses and dry patches.
It is best To do that prior to mattress. (By far the most time it must consider is ten minutes. For me it requires five). WRAPPING Guideline: For legs, wrap it in a very circular movement till you've got reached a complete circle. For stomachs, do exactly the same. For bums, do a similar but in case you visit the lavatory during the night you must reapply ONLY the plastic wrap Except if you would like to complete the cure all all over again. I am now thirteen (going on 14 in some months) and my mum enrolled me to complete swimming courses so all through high school I can volunteer on the swimming pools in my space. It's at the moment Monday, March 24, and did the solution At 4pm after school, and now 7 hours later I'm presently observing a big difference. I reapplied it in advance of I went to mattress (that has a new wrap & new coat of vix) and I am able to Actually say it's Functioning. Ideally by Friday the stretch marks will likely be clear so I drop by my courses confidently and not have to worry about attempting to hid the marks on my legs. *Be sure to Be aware: I website think that to help keep the marks absent, repeating this remedy just about every 7 days after the marks are absent should support maintain them away. Vapour rub just isn't high priced and neither is plastic rap. I hope this treatment functions for you as it is actually at this time Doing work for me.

These pictures are from my college's pet show. We had dog's (big fat dogs) running in and out of the buildings. And retarded guys trying to get noticed because of their pets. Isn't that a big irony!! You'll never get noticed otherwise so bring in your big fat dogs to impress the ladies. And yes, let me tell you, it does work. Our gender has a thing for BIG (obviously). It comes naturally, really. So I totally fell in love with a few big dogs but Irteza didn't let me picture them because of the cheapie guys. So I just have a few lame pictures.
This is Ramla's cat and she is pretty. She might be a he though, I don't know. She won the cat competition or something. I don't know what. It was too hot, I didn't go to the pet show I just took photos later.
What was this chic doing there, I don't know. Ha! I use 'I don't know' a lot, don't I? It's so lame.
I thought this dog was really cool and the owner was a girl so I took two big pictures. 😀
And there was a magnificent looking parrot too. I was lucky to get a photo of it. Although, I didn't take this photo. Somebody else did and I transferred a copy to my phone. Here, check it out.
And the last is the ugly dog. I took this picture just to annoy Irteza. I like doing that. 😀

QUINCY, Mass.--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--Responding to the mounting issue of distracted driving and the high demand from local schools, the Arbella Insurance Foundation has recommitted to its Distractology tour for an additional five years. The program — one of the first in the country to address distracted driving with young, inexperienced drivers — is relaunching this week with updated training scenarios and an eye-catching new look. To date, more than 11,000 teenagers have completed the Distractology training. Drivers who have completed Distractology are proven to be 19 percent less likely to have an accident and 25 percent less likely to get traffic violations*.
"Motor vehicle crashes continue to be the leading cause of death among 16-19 year-olds in the United States, and their risk of being involved in a fatal crash is almost three times higher than drivers aged 20 and older"
Teens have the highest crash rate of any group in the United States. A 2015 study by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety found that distraction was a factor in nearly six out of ten moderate-to-severe teen crashes. Adding to the urgency of this issue, auto fatality rates are the highest they have been in nearly a decade. Research from the National Safety Council found a 14 percent jump in auto-related deaths in the first six months of 2015, compared to the previous year.
Introduced in 2010, the Distractology campaign features a 36-foot-long, mobile classroom outfitted with high-tech driving simulators. The classroom travels to high schools across New England and leads students though a variety of true-to-life distracted driving scenarios, educating participants to anticipate hidden hazards, react to the road and avoid accidents. For the relaunch, the scenarios have been updated to include distractions created by smartphones, streaming music, and food and drink, in both residential and highway conditions. The original driving simulations created by the University of Massachusetts Amherst (UMass Amherst) Human Performance Lab are still used as they are as applicable as ever.
"Though laws have been put in place and drivers are aware of the dangers, we are more tethered to our phones than ever before, making distracted driving more common and a bigger threat to the safety of our communities," said John Donohue, chairman, president and CEO of the Arbella Insurance Group, and chairman of the Arbella Insurance Foundation. "Arbella's Foundation is proud to have been one of the first to tackle distracted driving, and we're excited to continue to offer Distractology to the newest wave of young drivers."
So far, the Distractology tour has visited more than 120 towns in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island and New Hampshire. More than 100 high schools have participated and the program is already booked through the end of the year due to popularity. Ninety-six percent of students who participated in the program would recommend it to their friends — a strong indication of the impact Distractology is having on students.
In addition to the newly created simulations, Arbella's Foundation is debuting new Distractology imagery. The interior and exterior of the mobile classroom will feature striking graphics of drivers whose heads have morphed into the distractions that consume them. The images illustrate the way distractions, like phones, food and drink, and the radio, can take full control of drivers' minds, diverting their attention from the road. These images reflect the new tagline: "Don't let distractions take over." The Distractology.com website, where program participants complete an online portion of the curriculum, has been revamped as well. The website will now feature a teacher's portal, where teachers can find activity ideas, videos and discussion questions that offer ways to connect the Distractology visit to their lessons. The Distractology online curriculum and simulator are based on Arbella Insurance Foundation-funded research conducted by UMass Amherst.
"Motor vehicle crashes continue to be the leading cause of death among 16-19 year-olds in the United States, and their risk of being involved in a fatal crash is almost three times higher than drivers aged 20 and older," said Dr. Donald L. Fisher, professor and former department head of the College of Engineering, UMass Amherst, and national expert on distracted driving. "We created a simulator that mimics real life distracted driving and educates young drivers about the hazards of this dangerous behavior. By participating in the training, new drivers can be better equipped at anticipating hazards and abstaining from dangerous behavior."
Distractology will travel to various communities in Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island during 2016, offering 45 minutes of simulated driving to each participant. Members of Arbella's network of more than 500 independent insurance agents volunteer their time hosting the training in their own communities. The program is funded by the Arbella Insurance Foundation, making the training free for students.

Our little boy is feeling bad. He has had more trips to the bathroom in the last 24 hours than I'd like to recount. So we're headed to a pediatrician this afternoon to see what bug has got his insides all churned up. I cross my fingers that it is something we can get under control real soon. There isn't much worse than watching your two year old on the pot crying, "my bottom really really hurts." Poor guy.
He is asleep right now and Danny and Harper are out dropping off a poop sample at the doctor's lab. I have too much time on my hands so I sit here and worry. I don't like being away from the familiar right now. I know taking this trip we had this coming, we all knew bad diarrhea was in the cards, but it still feels like we've been caught off guard. Why couldn't it have hit me or Danny?
But I guess we're not the ones that walk down the streets of Quito rubbing our hands against every wall. We don't pick up pieces of sparkling trash at the park and announce that we've found "a treasure." When eating we keep all of our food on our plates, as opposed to the complex fork maneuverings used by one of our children that almost always sends something rolling onto the table (and then is quickly swiped up into the mouth.) We wash our hands after we go to the bathroom, not only when we're pressed about it. We don't pick up lovies from the floor and cover them in kisses.
It's no wonder he's sick.
All right it is time to wake him up and head to the doctor. We'll post what we find out soon.

Step in the Right Direction
September 13, 2012 at 1:11 pm 2 comments
If the word out of Japan is true, that Perth Glory have signed 21-year old promising striker Ryo Nagai from J-League outfit Cerezo Osaka in a four-month loan deal, then this is more exciting than the signing of Alessandro del Piero. As we stated in "Del Piero inspired signing or not" it is time the A league clubs looked to attract talented youth rather than players on the downside of their careers.
Nagai is a former under-19 representative for Japan, who has come through Cerezo's youth academy and has made 25 J-League appearances, including eight as a substitute in 2012.
His loan period is expected to start on October 1, and conclude on January 31 2013.
By all accounts he can play in a number of positions, and is an attacking player. He could be the perfect player to bring in off the bench in a close game if he fails to force his way into the starting line-up.
Congratulations to Ian Ferguson and his coaching staff for opting for a talented young player who is likely to excite the fans even if he is only here for four months. This is definitely a step in the right direction.

Umtiti (22'), Sidibe (43'), Dembele (78')
Kane (9', Pen 48')
Stadium: Stade de France
As the song "Don't look back in Anger" was sung by all in respect to the families and friends affected by the London and Manchester attacks. It was reminder that if a match is won or lost, football, at least, brings people together.
Ousmane Dembélé's decisive strike ended England's season with defeat and rose similar questions surrounding the team's attacking failures and the manager's influence.
Tom Heaton was tested early on as he awkwardly cleared Thomas Lemar's cross. But it would be England that struck first. A brilliantly cross from Dele Alli freed Raheem Sterling to back-heel and set Ryan Bertrand into space to assist Harry Kane's easy tap-in.
France replied as Paul Pogba's free-kick was met by a towering Olivier Giroud and the rebound was slotted in by Samuel Umtiti to the joy of the home crowd.
England failed to clear for a second time and Dembélé's shot was again tipped straight to a French player as Djibril Sidibé accepted the invitation for his first goal for his country.
After the break England started strong as Alli's flick confused the defence as Kane returned from an offside position and Alli managed to get on the end of the same flick but was fouled by Raphael Varane.
Referee Davide Massa, with the help of the video assistant referee (VAR), controversially sent off Varane. Kane took the resultant penalty and fired straight down the middle deceiving Tottenham teammate Hugo Lloris.
However, England continued to struggle. Jack Butland came on at half-time and denied Mbappé on several occasions. And when Butland failed, the bar came to England's rescue.
The inevitable came as Paul Pogba's one-touch lay off set the tone for a wonderful unselfish attack that was finished by Dembélé into the bottom corner.
Southgates choice to change to a back three presented plenty of food for thought but England's continual issue if breaking sides down is not a new challenge.
England: Heaton, (Butland, 45) Jones, (Cresswell, 82) Stones, Cahill, Trippier, (Lallana, 76), Oxlade-Chamberlain, Dier, Bertrand (Walker, 45) Sterling, Alli, Kane. Subs: Forster, Hart, Gibson, Smalling, Livermore, Lallana, Lingard, Defoe, Rashford.
France: Lloris, Sidibé (Jallet, 90'), Varane, Umtiti, Mendy, (Digne, 21) Lemar, Pogba, Kanté, Dembélé, Giroud, (Koscielny, 52) Mbappé. Subs: Areola, Costil, Kimpembe, Tolisso, Zouma, Payet, Matuidi, Rabiot, Sissoko, Thauvin, Griezmann, Lacazette.

i woke up the last day in London to sunny skies and the news that a plane out of Egypt had been hijacked.
it's bad enough to see that after the bombing last week of the airport in Brussels that but the authorities in Cyprus on TV were saying it wasn't a terrorist attack [really? tell that to the people kidnapped] and Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades responded to a reporter's question about whether the hijacker was motivated by romance, laughed and said "Always there is a woman involved". hey asshole - here's a news flash - the person hijacking the plane was a MAN.
GOOD JOB CYPRUS. your politicians make Trump look presidential.
also, to the dick head that hijacked the plan and later threw a letter off the plane to his ex wife - next time use a stamp.
i think my tolerance has sunken to new levels. as i clear security at Heathrow for my flight out, my rucksack is unpacked, rexrayed and swabbed for explosives. they take away my toothpaste which was a medium size with just a few drops left. i just hope everyone else on my flight is as well screened.
recently i seem to get rerouted alot and my brother, knowing this, suggests if they try to reroute you through egypt today - decline.
once on the 'safe side' of security i beeline for the United Club - there is always a pleasant face there, fast wireless, free food and cocktails. and a power outlet at every seat that accommodates both uk and us power cords. what else could a girl ask for?
the stop at the united club may have been a mistake when the next leg of my journey plays out but in the moment i was loving it.

Animals, Inc
With its previous bestsellers – First, Break All the Rules and Now, Discover Your Strengths – The Gallup Organization rewrote the book on great management. Now Gallup finally makes its classic, hilarious parable, ANIMALS, INC., available to the general public. A story that has proven effective and popular with Gallup clients for over thirty years, this tale introduces you to a group of unforgettable barnyard animals trying to run a successful business. Deciding that education is the key, the members of Animals, Inc. conduct employee surveys, evaluate competencies, and set up training classes.
Filled with the excitement and hope that accompany any new project, they work hard to overcome their natural shortcomings. The workhorse tries to operate the computer, the shy sheep makes sales calls, the scarecrow attempts to lay eggs. What results will seem uncannily familiar to the human reader. As revelatory as Who Moved My Cheese? and as funny as Fish!, ANIMALS, INC. will have you laughing and learning at the same time. Recharge your thinking with invaluable practical insights. Get an edge in the business world you won?t discover anywhere else. And discover the key to effective management, reenergized morale, and super-heightened performance. Just listen to the animals.
Managers and small business owners who are overwhelmed by the number of business books on the shelves today should turn to this humorous business parable, which is delightfully dramatized by Ward. When Farmer Good decides to retire, his animals take on the business themselves. This proves to be no easy task, however, even for a seasoned pig like Moe. Moe makes his biggest mistake early on-he values the knowledge he gleans from business books over common sense. Moe sets up training classes, believing that any animal can fill any role with suitable education. Thus, the Scarecrow is promoted to egg production, and Chucky the crow fills the Scarecrow's old security position, which proves to be disastrous. All the while, one power-hungry land developer watches and waits for the farm to fail. The authors' message-use your common sense-is simplistic, but their characterizations are as memorable as Ward's performance. Ward has the uncanny ability to make listeners feel right at home with the animals on the farm, and he does an exceptional job of drawing out the humor in the text (his rendition of Piggy Banks's rap number is especially side-splitting). Enhanced by animal sound effects and snippets of folk music, this spunky farm fable will charm both adults and children.

A survey was conducted on the most common computer issues suffered by Australian home users. Given below are the most common computer problems. You can also find some tips on preventing or solving them from Computers Mobile, a well known computer repair business in Bunbury area.
PC is running slow: This is one of the most common problems that's faced by the Australian home users. It is frustrating and so sometimes users even think of replacing the PC for this problem. There can be several causes for a slow computer – the most common one being lack of maintenance. A corrupted registry, fragmented data, virus and several other unimportant programs running simultaneously, actually slows down the speed and performance of the computer.
Tips – Always keep track of the programs. Remove the ones that you think you'll never use or shut them down after using them. Clean the registry with…

It's sad to get news which affect us at the core. This was the case when it was announced that the 23 year old victim of gang rape in Delhi, India passed away on December 29th, 2012.
This happened almost 2-3 weeks ago and the perpetuators still haven't been brought to justice. This has caused a lot of uproar in India, including but not limited to, protests, rioting, police having to tear gas crowds, several speeches and everyone's opinions being blasted all over the Media.
My personal opinion about this is that it should be dealt with in the harshest and most effecient way possible. The handling of this incident should send a message all offenders of this category, that such actions will not be tolerated by the government and / or law enforcement.
Sadly though, the time for that has passed. The manner in which the Indian government

All the fuss over President Barack Obama addressing the nation's kids in the classrooms was, quite frankly, silly.
On Tuesday, Obama addressed schools throughout the country, telling kids not to cut class and to stay in school.
What is so wrong with that?
Controversy had arisen days before, alleging the speech was politically motivated and it wasn't appropriate for him to be addressing children and teenagers while they were in the classroom. Regardless of one's opinion of Obama or if one voted for him or not, he is our president and has the right to advise our kids to follow their dreams and stay in school.The president was simply telling our nation's kids, some of whom are dropping out of school or who are considering dropping out, to stay in school. He also challenged them to work hard, set educational goals and take responsibility for their learning.
Late last week, Kentucky Department of Education Commissioner Terry Holiday told local school districts that students could opt out of the speech if they had permission from their parents.
One has to respect parents' opinions and if they felt like they didn't want their kids watching Obama's address, then that was certainly their prerogative.It is just hard to envision how our president's message would have affected anyone's kids in a negative way.
On Tuesday, only a handful of kids opted out of the speech in the city and county school districts. Again, that was their prerogative, but it would seem that Obama's message was one with which Americans of all political persuasions should be able to identify.
The uproar surrounding this speech seemed to take on a life of its own prior to the president's address, but it is just hard to understand what all the fuss was about.

MIAMI – A Palm Beach County man alleges his former Weston employer owes him unpaid wages.
Rhonny Tufino filed a complaint on Dec. 22 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida against Showpitch LLC and Jean Pierre Fatta citing the Fair Labor Standards Act.
According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that he worked for more than 40 hours without being paid any overtime compensation between November 2015 and March 2016. The plaintiff holds Showpitch LLC and Fatta responsible because the defendants allegedly failed to pay the plaintiff any overtime premium for working more than 40 hours per week, purportedly failed to pay him two unpaid checks and also $200 that was allegedly shorted from the plaintiff's paychecks.
The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks all unpaid wages, all legal fees plus interest and any other relief as this court deems just. He is represented by Keith M. Stern and Hazel Solis Rojas of Law Offices of Keith M. Stern PA in Miami.

Remembrance was the theme of this year's Greek Independence Parade in Philadelphia, not only for Greece's quest and gaining of independence in 1821, but also for the death of Danielle Kousoulis, who was among the Greek-Americans who lost their lives on 9/11, and for the thousands of other victims who died on that day in the terrorist attacks. The Parade is dedicated to their memory and also to an increased focus on mobilizing the Greek-American community toward contributing to the rebuilding of the St. Nicholas Church at Ground Zero.
Kousoulis' parents, George and Zoe, are this year's honorary Grand Marshals.
During the Divine Liturgy at the Cathedral of St. George in Philadelphia prior to the start of the Parade, Metropolitan Evangelos of New Jersey offered a special prayer for Danielle and for all the other victims who lost their lives on 9/11.
As the parade got underway, the sun warmed the blustery day and the crowd was able to cheer on the marchers without having to huddle together for warmth.
Stathis Karadonis, President of the Federation of Hellenic American Societies of Philadelphia and Greater Delaware Valley announced the parade in Greek, and Federation Advisor Harry Karapalides did so in English. Metropolitan Evangelos led the chant of "Ti Ypermaho – The Champion Defender" and also "Aonia I Mnimi – Eternal the Memory" when the float memorializing Danielle Kousoulis advanced to the reviewing stand.Source: The National Herald

This week seems like it'd be an easy topic, but I found it really difficult to find ten light & fun novels to recommend… I always tell my mum about the books I'm reading and today she asked me if I ever read anything fun. And I realized that I read a lot more dark, gritty, emotional novels than fun ones these days! Therefore, quite a few of the books on this list are a few years old. Still, I really appreciated this week's TTT because it reminded me how much I love light & fun books and that I really need to incorporate more of them into my reading rotation! Check out the titles below & don't let the fact that they're a few years old discourage you from picking them up!
I absolutely adore this entire series! They're absolutely hilarious. Be sure to check out Carter's Heist Society series as well!
Cammie Morgan is a student at the Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women, a fairly typical all-girls school-that is, if every school taught advanced martial arts in PE and the latest in chemical warfare in science, and students received extra credit for breaking CIA codes in computer class. The Gallagher Academy might claim to be a school for geniuses but it's really a school for spies. Even though Cammie is fluent in fourteen languages and capable of killing a man in seven different ways, she has no idea what to do when she meets an ordinary boy who thinks she's an ordinary girl. Sure, she can tap his phone, hack into his computer, or track him through town with the skill of a real "pavement artist"-but can she maneuver a relationship with someone who can never know the truth about her?
Cammie Morgan may be an elite spy-in-training, but in her sophomore year, she's on her most dangerous mission-falling in love.
2. The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom by Christopher Healy
Laughed nonstop while reading Healy's first Hero's Guide book… super excited to read the second installment this week, The Hero's Guide to Storming the Castle!
Prince Liam. Prince Frederic. Prince Duncan. Prince Gustav. You've never heard of them, have you? These are the princes who saved Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Snow White, and Rapunzel, respectively, and yet, thanks to those lousy bards who wrote the tales, you likely know them only as Prince Charming. But all of this is about to change.
Rejected by their princesses and cast out of their castles, the princes stumble upon an evil plot that could endanger each of their kingdoms. Now it's up to them to triumph over their various shortcomings, take on trolls, bandits, dragons, witches, and other assorted terrors, and become the heroes no one ever thought they could be.
3. Kiss It by Erin Downing
The subject matter in this book is actually quite deep and sometimes emotional, but the main character is awesome and the love story is amazing, which qualifies it as a lighter read for me.
A girl's gotta do who a girl's gotta do. Chastity Bryan has never been shy about going after what she wants. And when sexy, mysterious, so-not-from-this-town Sebastian walks into Chaz's life, she knows in an instant that what she wants next is him. Chaz has no intention of playing for keeps—but she most definitely has intentions. Who needs true love when you've got true lust? Sebastian has no idea what he's in for—but maybe neither does Chaz….
4. The Naughty List by Suzanne Young
It's been a super long time since I read this book, but I remember it being hilarious. The girls in it don't swear and come up with really funny substitutes!
As if being a purrfect cheerleader isn't enough responsibility! Tessa Crimson's the sweet and spunky leader of the SOS (Society of Smitten Kittens), a cheer squad-turned-spy society dedicated to bringing dastardly boyfriends to justice, one cheater at a time. Boyfriend-busting wouldn't be so bad . . . except that so far, every suspect on the Naughty List has been proven 100% guilty! When Tessa's own boyfriend shows up on the List, she turns her sleuthing skills on him. Is Aiden just as naughty as all the rest, or will Tessa's sneaky ways end in catastrophe –
The Naughty List. Is your boyfriend on it?
5. Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins
Long time readers of my blog know how much I adore this book. Such an wonderful, feel good story and characters!
Anna is looking forward to her senior year in Atlanta, where she has a great job, a loyal best friend, and a crush on the verge of becoming more. Which is why she is less than thrilled about being shipped off to boarding school in Paris–until she meets Étienne St. Clair. Smart, charming, beautiful, Étienne has it all…including a serious girlfriend.
But in the City of Light, wishes have a way of coming true. Will a year of romantic near-misses end with their long-awaited French kiss?
6. Hex Hall series by Rachel Hawkins
I love this series! Rachel Hawkins is a great writer and I never fail to laugh when reading things she's written. If you've read this series be sure to check out the first in her new series, School Spirits!
Three years ago, Sophie Mercer discovered that she was a witch. It's gotten her into a few scrapes. Her non-gifted mother has been as supportive as possible, consulting Sophie's estranged father–an elusive European warlock–only when necessary. But when Sophie attracts too much human attention for a prom-night spell gone horribly wrong, it's her dad who decides her punishment: exile to Hex Hall, an isolated reform school for wayward Prodigium, a.k.a. witches, faeries, and shapeshifters.
By the end of her first day among fellow freak-teens, Sophie has quite a scorecard: three powerful enemies who look like supermodels, a futile crush on a gorgeous warlock, a creepy tagalong ghost, and a new roommate who happens to be the most hated person and only vampire student on campus. Worse, Sophie soon learns that a mysterious predator has been attacking students, and her only friend is the number-one suspect.
As a series of blood-curdling mysteries starts to converge, Sophie prepares for the biggest threat of all: an ancient secret society determined to destroy all Prodigium, especially her.
7. Amy & Roger's Epic Detour by Morgan Matson
Just thinking about this book makes me smile. Plus, who doesn't love road trips… especially road trips with an adorable guy as a companion!?
Amy Curry thinks her life sucks. Her mom decides to move from California to Connecticut to start anew–just in time for Amy's senior year. Her dad recently died in a car accident. So Amy embarks on a road trip to escape from it all, driving cross-country from the home she's always known toward her new life. Joining Amy on the road trip is Roger, the son of Amy's mother's old friend. Amy hasn't seen him in years, and she is less than thrilled to be driving across the country with a guy she barely knows. So she's surprised to find that she is developing a crush on him. At the same time, she's coming to terms with her father's death and how to put her own life back together after the accident. Told in traditional narrative as well as scraps from the road–diner napkins, motel receipts, postcards–this is the story of one girl's journey to find herself.
8. Bad Kitty by Michele Jaffe
This book is so under-appreciated! It's honestly one of my all-time favorites… I don't think any book has made me laugh as hard as this one! I feel like the covers for this one scare readers off, but look beyond the cover, there's something amazing under that mess! 🙂
1Meet Jasmine, 2 forensic supersleuth, 3 aspiring Model Daughter, 4 and friend to animals. 5 One second she's trying to enjoy her Vegas Vacation, 6 the next she's tangled up in an outrageous adventure and has to outwit a crazed killer before he ends ten lives, one of them her own.
1 Hi! That's me!
2 I. Wish.
3 Emphasis on aspiring. Current status: failing.
4 If friend means "unsuspecting victim" and animals means "one very bad kitty."
5 And meet the cute guy at the Snack Hut. I have priorities.
6 Meep! But I guess it winds up okay since Kirkus Reviews says: "Inventive, witty, and laugh-out-loud funny, with an enjoyably twisty ending." They wouldn't say that if everyone died, right? Right?
9. Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles
This is another that has some complicated and grittier themes, but features a fantastic love story and lots of funny, laugh-out-loud moments. Plus, it's a series (though this first one was always my favorite)!
A fresh, urban twist on the classic tale of star-crossed lovers.
When Brittany Ellis walks into chemistry class on the first day of senior year, she has no clue that her carefully created 'perfect' life is about to unravel before her eyes. She's forced to be lab partners with Alex Fuentes, a gang member from the other side of town, and he is about to threaten everything she's worked so hard for: her flawless reputation, her relationship with her boyfriend, and the secret that her home life is anything but perfect.
Alex is a bad boy and he knows it. So when he makes a bet with his friends to lure Brittany into his life, he thinks nothing of it. But soon Alex realizes Brittany is a real person with real problems, and suddenly the bet he made in arrogance turns into something much more.
In a passionate story about looking beneath the surface, Simone Elkeles breaks through the stereotypes and barriers that threaten to keep Brittany and Alex apart.
10. The Key to the Golden Firebird by Maureen Johnson
I'll always count Johnson's earlier novels among my favorites and this one is no exception! I love it so much I still have my original arc copy! It's a touching, honest novel that made me laugh and cry. Plus, it furthered my somewhat secret love of redheaded boys (Rupert Grint, anyone??)!
The funny thing about stop signs is that they're also start signs.
Mayzie is the brainy middle sister, Brooks is the beautiful but conflicted oldest, and Palmer's the quirky baby of the family. In spite of their differences, the Gold sisters have always been close.
When their father dies, everything begins to fall apart. Level-headed May is left to fend for herself (and somehow learn to drive), while her two sisters struggle with their own demons. But the girls learn that while there are a lot of rules for the road, there are no rules when it comes to the heart. Together, they discover the key to moving on — and it's the key to their father's Pontiac Firebird.

Confession: I finished these about a month ago, and have put off sharing them until now. I've been busy though—I started a new job! Anyways…
The two embroideries I'm sharing today are from the beloved children's book, Where the Wild Things Are. I had been wanting to embroider something or another inspired by the book forever, and I finally decided to just do it.
The first one states "let the wild rumpus start!" along with Max's famous crown.
The hoop of this one is painted black, and it is 4″.
The second piece states "and the walls became the world all around" also with Max's crown.
This hoop is painted a light brown, and is 6″.
These pieces are up for sale in the shop (1 & 2), and you can see more photos of them there!

Best Books I've ever Read
Bookwitty contest, Best books I've read so far...
The new bestselling novel from international literary phenomenon Paulo Coelho, author of The Alchemist.`Love is a terrible thing that will make you suffer...'So says Maria, a young Brazilian girl convinced from an early age that she will never find true love. A chance meeting in Rio takes her to Geneva, but the glittering life she hoped for was a fantasy. The reality - selling herself to survive - is a dehumanising grind that pushes her further away from real love, towards a fascination with pure physical pleasure.But when her emotional barriers are tested by a handsome young painter, she must choose between the dark path she is on and risking everything to find her `inner light'. Can she move beyond the meeting of minds or even souls - to a place where sex itself is sacred?A daring modern fable about the nature of love and sex.
A Summer Reading Pick for President Barack Obama, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerberg From a renowned historian comes a groundbreaking narrative of humanity's creation and evolution—a #1 international bestseller—that explores the ways in which biology and history have defined us and enhanced our understanding of what it means to be "human." One hundred thousand years ago, at least six different species of humans inhabited Earth. Yet today there is only one—homo sapiens. What happened to the others? And what may happen to us? Most books about the history of humanity pursue either a historical or a biological approach, but Dr. Yuval Noah Harari breaks the mold with this highly original book that begins about 70,000 years ago with the appearance of modern cognition. From examining the role evolving humans have played in the global ecosystem to charting the rise of empires, Sapiens integrates history and science to reconsider accepted narratives, connect past developments with contemporary concerns, and examine specific events within the context of larger ideas. Dr. Harari also compels us to look ahead, because over the last few decades humans have begun to bend laws of natural selection that have governed life for the past four billion years. We are acquiring the ability to design not only the world around us, but also ourselves. Where is this leading us, and what do we want to become? Featuring 27 photographs, 6 maps, and 25 illustrations/diagrams, this provocative and insightful work is sure to spark debate and is essential reading for aficionados of Jared Diamond, James Gleick, Matt Ridley, Robert Wright, and Sharon Moalem.
"My heart is afraid that it will have to suffer," the boy told the alchemist one night as they looked up at the moonless sky." Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams."Every few decades a book is published that changes the lives of its readers forever. The Alchemist is such a book. With over a million and a half copies sold around the world, The Alchemist has already established itself as a modern classic, universally admired. Paulo Coelho's charming fable, now available in English for the first time, will enchant and inspire an even wider audience of readers for generations to come.The Alchemist is the magical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure as extravagant as any ever found. From his home in Spain he journeys to the markets of Tangiers and across the Egyptian desert to a fateful encounter with the alchemist.The story of the treasures Santiago finds along the way teaches us, as only a few stories have done, about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, learning to read the omens strewn along life's path, and, above all, following our dreams.
"Every true love and friendship is a story of unexpected transformation. If we are the same person before and after we loved, that means we haven't loved enough..."
Ella Rubinstein has a husband, three teenage children, and a pleasant home. Everything that should make her confident and fulfilled. Yet there is an emptiness at the heart of Ella's life - an emptiness once filled by love.
So when Ella reads a manuscript about the thirteenth-century Sufi poet Rumi and Shams of Tabriz, and his forty rules of life and love, her world is turned upside down. She embarks on a journey to meet the mysterious author of this work.
It is a quest infused with Sufi mysticism and verse, taking Ella and us into an exotic world where faith and love are heartbreakingly explored. . .
"Homo Deus will shock you. It will entertain you. Above all, it will make you think in ways you had not thought before." (Daniel Kahneman, author of Thinking Fast, and Slow). Yuval Noah Harari, author of the bestselling Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind, envisions a not-too-distant world in which we face a new set of challenges. Now, in Homo Deus, he examines our future with his trademark blend of science, history, philosophy and every discipline in between. Homo Deus explores the projects, dreams and nightmares that will shape the twenty-first century - from overcoming death to creating artificial life. It asks the fundamental questions: Where do we go from here? And how will we protect this fragile world from our own destructive powers? This is the next stage of evolution. This is Homo Deus. War is obsolete You are more likely to commit suicide than be killed in conflict Famine is disappearing You are at more risk of obesity than starvation Death is just a technical problem Equality is out - but immortality is in What does our future hold?

ACCORDING to a survey by This England magazine, there is a danger St George's Day will become increas-ingly irrelevant to English people.
The poll found seven out of 10 young people and 40% of all ages don't even know when the saint's day is, never mind what he stood for.
And worse, one in eight actually find it embarrassing or distasteful when they see the St George Cross flying because of its associations with extremism.
Stephen Garnett, editor of This England magazine, said: "We're incredibly disappointed to find that St George is losing his perceived relevance to English culture.
"St George stands for everything that makes this country great – freedom of expression, helping those less fortunate, tolerance of other people's beliefs, kindness and standing up for what you believe to be right – and it's a travesty this is being forgotten.
"We want people to be proud, fly the flag, wear a red rose, display the cross or organise their own St George's day party, anything.
"Just do something to make sure that we don't let this important day go by without speaking up for England."
The survey also found that young people have little understanding of the history of St George.
This is a contrast to the pride displayed by other countries, such as Ireland, who annually and noisily rejoice on St Patrick's Day.
St George was said to be a respected Roman soldier who was executed for refusing to bow down to Roman Emperor Diocletian and denounce his Christian beliefs.
Bestowing all his wealth to the poor, his courage inspired leaders across the world, including King Richard, who declared St George as England's patron saint and Henry III who announced the Feast of St George to be celebrated on the date of the noble soldier's death – April 23.

Can you believe this sweet little 2 1/2 year old boy with his baby sister is now SEVEN??
I mean, there is no WAY that my boy can be SEVEN!
Since I am very behind, I will catch up a little in this post! We just finished our crazy month of September. Tim went out of town for a week for his work Deep Sea Fishing/Golf trip and had a blast. I went on my annual event planning job to Las Vegas for a week. And we ended the month in Disney World with my mom and dad! Whew.... lets just say we are HOME for a while!
In between all the traveling chaos, this little man had his buddies over for a Ninja Party! Would you know the day I plan for LOTS (16 children and 32 adults) to come over, it rains. Yep. Rain.
So, the only way I can remotely bring you into the chaos is to describe it as a frat party with 7 year old boys. Tim fully embraced the testosterone in the house. And maybe helped bring it up a few notches. Everyone had swords. And then he made ninja balloons to be the targets and tied them all around the house.
Whatever. Just, whatever.
PLEASE NOTE> Do you see my hallway?? It is the last darn thing I have to paint in this old house. And guess what? I didnt even BOTHER before this party! That is an old rug I threw down so no one would body bowl down the hall and that is straight DRYWALL behind David. I guess when you throw a frat party, you need to look like a frat house. Done. And done.
Well, they had fun. We survived. Nothing was broken and I'm pretty sure no one was hurt. We didn't hear them if they were. The best part of the night was the end..... downtown Marietta re-scheduled their fireworks from the 4th of July that night. So, David still thinks the town fireworks were just for his birthday. We told him no different. It was a memorable day for my sweet boy and I loved it being all about him. David suited up...
David and his new electric scooter. Yes, it goes 10mph. And yes, he is wearing a helmet, wrist guards, elbow pads, and knee pads.
Ninja cupcakes! Pintrest inspired. They look cuter far away. I did these when I was way too tired after flying in from Vegas.
Tim's awesome ninja balloons all over the house. I think there were 15 sword stations.
Happy Birthday sweetheart! We sure have had an amazing 7 years and I love the time we got together this month.... in Disney World!
Ok, for the record. This was our 3rd Annual Disney trip! If you ever want to know how to go on the cheap, email me! For real! I owe my sister a lot for her research, but this year we did something just as cheap! Years past, we have camped at Fort Wilderness. But, if it rains on your trip.... it aint pretty.
This year, we stayed in an awesome condo off VRBO in Buena Vista, Fl. It was ridiculously nice. And cheap. And 10 miles from Disney. Full kitchen. Spacious. Amazing pool. Right next to Publix. So close you could hear fireworks. Anyways, our goal is to go and only spend a few hundred dollars. There are ways to get deals on tickets. We did Mickeys Not So Scary Halloween night in Magic Kingdom and it was only $59. Sea World had tickets for only $50 right now. Ok enough. Here our a couple pics!
Our Pool!
Anyway, people can do what they want. I was super annoyed after only spending 30 minutes with them. And Mackenzie was acting way too much like a diva after only a few shots on camera. That's not our bag, baby.
Magic Kindom, Halloween style!
3 years in a row, the characters still hold high ranks with what matters with my kiddos. They are just so sweet and genuine with the kids. Its like, they fully embrace that they are a reality and superstar in the eyes of children. It is just fantastic to watch.
Thanks for having us Disney! We love you Mickey!

Ladycats building intensity
Business Directory
By Stephen R. Farris
Mexia News Sports Editor
So what do you do when the team you're playing is coming in fresh off a tournament championship?
You play them as hard as you possibly can and that was the case for the Mexia Ladycats Tuesday evening as they hosted the Corsicana Lady Tigers, who won the top division at the Fairfield Invitational Volleyball Tournament this past weekend.
Even though the Ladycats fell to Corsicana in three sets, 20-25, 17-25, 17-25, Mexia wasn't intimidated by the Lady Tigers front line and outside hitting.
Jocelyn Anderson and Oasis Keener played solid defense at the net throughout the match and Keener pounded down some nice kill shots from the middle and outside, helping keep the Ladycats within striking distance all evening long.

Born in Geesthacht, Ritter studied philosophy, theology, German literature, and history in Heidelberg, Marburg, Freiburg and Hamburg. A disciple of Martin Heidegger and Ernst Cassirer, he obtained his doctorate with a dissertation on Nicolas of Cusa in 1925. Ritter was Cassirer's assistant and a lecturer at the University of Hamburg. A Marxist in the late 1920s and early 1930s, he became a member of the Nazi Party in 1937 and an officer of the German Wehrmacht in 1940. After World War II, Ritter was appointed professor of philosophy in Münster.
Ritter's philosophical work focuses on a theory of modernity. In a liberal interpretation of Hegel's Philosophy of Right, he developed the view that "bifurcation" is the constitutive structure of the modern world and a necessary precondition for the universal realization of individual freedom. According to Ritter's theory of culture as compensation, arts and humanities have the function of balancing the disenchanted, ahistorical condition of modern society. Alongside Hans-Georg Gadamer, his work on Aristotle's ethics and political theory initiated the renewal of practical philosophy in Germany.
Ritter is considered one of the most influential philosophers in postwar Western Germany. Among his disciples were scholars and public intellectuals like Ernst-Wolfgang Böckenförde, Max Imdahl, Hermann Lübbe, Odo Marquard, and Robert Spaemann. Together with them, Ritter started the "Historisches Wörterbuch der Philosophie" and contributed to development of conceptual history in the field of philosophy. In the 1980s, Jürgen Habermas opposed the Ritter-School for being leading representatives of German neo-conservatism. More recent scholarship in intellectual history points out Ritter's seminal role for the modernization of German political thought and the development of a modern liberal republicanism.

I was sweaty and so out of breath when I made it to 4.16 miles today! I worked the hardest I possibly could. My right leg was tingling and losing feeling throughout the whole run, but that's all the more reason to run, right? I'm still researching how to effect CNS inflammation, but until then I have to keep trying to lower my systemic inflammation and hope there is some crossover.
I am so excited to have made it again.
