First major look at B.C. homeless deaths disappoints
The Vancouver street magazine Megaphone issued a report on Thursday, November 6, showing that homelessness nearly cuts a British Columbian's life expectancy in half.
The Megaphone report, called "Dying on the Streets: Homeless Deaths in British Columbia" uses B.C. Coroner statistics to contrast the short lives of homeless people with the longer lives that the rest of the B.C. population can expect.
The report's authors, Sean Condon and Jenn McDemid, get right to their point:
"As the data in 'Dying in the Streets' shows, the median age of death for a homeless person in the province is between 40 and 49. This is almost half the life expectancy for the average British Columbian, which is 82.65 years."
So they say.
I know that living on the street can be a challenge and it can be dangerous but after a decade of being homeless, I say that there's nothing intrinsically dangerous about living outside.
What's dangerous about homelessness and potentially life-shortening isn't homelessness itself but rather the "culture" of drugs and addiction that surrounds street life.
And the skimpy data that Condon and McDermid draw on proves my point as much as it proves theirs.
Homelessness by the numbers
On the one hand, it's important to credit the authors with attempting a popular analysis of homeless deaths in B.C. in order to come to useful conclusions.
On the other hand, "Dying on the Streets" reads like an attempt to find convincing statistics to backup the authors' foregone conclusion that homelessness kills.
The executive summary begins by telling readers that at least 281 homeless people died in British Columbia between 2006 and 2013.
The authors then actually question the accuracy of the statistics they cite, saying that the true number of homeless deaths is likely much higher.
It's an important secondary theme running through the report — the lack of hard data and the need to keep better records on the deaths of homeless people; not just in British Columbia but across Canada.
In fact, this report, thin as it is on facts, could probably only be done in British Columbia, thanks to the diligence of the B.C. Coroners Service, which even made additional 2012-2013 data available to the report's authors.
All the hard numbers in the report are based on the findings of two B.C. Coroners Service reports: Deaths among Homeless Individuals. 2006-2007 and Deaths among Homeless Individuals. 2007-2013.
The B.C. Coroners Service prefaces the 2006-2007 report by explaining that it uses the same definition of "homeless" used by the Greater Vancouver (now Metro Vancouver) Homeless Count. The B.C. Coroners Service considers someone homeless…
"…if they were known to be living 'rough' or on the street (street homelessness), or were in an emergency shelter or being provided temporary shelter by friends or family (less than 30 days; sheltered homeless)."
The authors of "Dying on the Streets" say the definition is too narrow to give an accurate picture.
"Counting someone as homeless only if they are without housing at the exact moment of their death does not properly reflect the realities of homelessness in British Columbia."
Perhaps not, but the hard numbers provided by the B.C. Coroners Service are at least based on reality.
I really have to quibble with Condon and McDermid's willingness to cling to the slim reed of "average life expectancy" in order to make their only point sensational and newsworthy.
Average life expectancy is not, as I understand it, synonymous with actual age of death. The later is a record of what has really happened while the former is merely a prediction, or educated guess about what might happen.
The Megaphone report takes its average life expectancy figure from a B.C. Stats document called Life Expectancy at Age 0. The "82.65" is the average for "2013" between men (80.71) and naturally longer-lived women (84.55).
The authors appear to take the "2013" to mean that the average life span of British Columbians in 2013 is 82.63.
Please someone correct me if I'm wrong but I read the "2013" as a person's birth date — that a person born in 2013 can expect to live 82.63 years.
I'm under the impression that the concept of life expectancy is conditional on a person's birth date. Or as the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare explains life expectancy:
"In Australia, a boy born in 2010–2012 can expect to live to the age of 79.9 years and a girl would be expected to live to 84.3 years compared to 55.2 and 58.8 years in 1901–1910 respectively."
Sounds trivial but it means that if our median homeless person died last year at, say, age 48, their life expectancy was considerably less than 82.63 years.
Their death age properly contrasts with the life expectancy of a British Columbian born when they were — 50 years ago. And the life expectancy for a British Columbian born in 1965 was 72.17 years — more than 10 years less than the average cited by the Megaphone report and close to 68 percent of the predicted 1965 average.
No media outlet, so far as I have noticed, has questioned the report's use (or misuse) of statistics. The report's contention too-perfectly fits the preconceived notion of homeless people living short, brutish lives.
Again, I have to strongly disagree that homelessness is intrinsically harmful. What's actually harmful about being homeless isn't living outside. That's actually a pretty healthy environment.
What's unhealthy and life-shortening about homelessness is the poisonous haze of drugs and addiction that surrounds living on the street.
The authors of "Dying on the Streets" can completely ignore the fact but they can't hide the glaring evidence in the statistics they cite.
Homelessness is a walk in a park (full of drug dealers)
The B.C. Coroner's report on homeless deaths between 2007 and 2013 separates the 250 deaths into 19 categories. The top two categories: Poisoning: Alcohol/Drugs (71) and Natural Causes (59) account for 130 deaths, over half of the total.
It's true that far too many of the 250 deaths look preventable. But when I look at the breakdown by cause, I do not see homelessness killing people. I see drugs, disease and suicide as the real killers — and cars, of course. And the neglect of society.
Society could provide homeless people with easy round-the-clock access to positive and inclusive services that would help them be healthy, productive, contributing citizens but it chooses not to.
Instead, society shuns and stigmatizes homelessness and all but condones the 24-hour access to cheap street drugs that promise many homeless people a release from their despair and boredom.
The Housing First crowd would have us believe that health and well-being for homeless people begins and ends with giving a street person a social housing bedsit but I disagree. I believe that change needs to happen first at the street level and to the drug culture associated with homelessness or else the homeless drug addicts put in new social housing will simply bring the dangers of the street home with them.
If British Columbia was actually trying to accessorize its nascent U.S.-style drugs and homelessness situation with honest-to-goodness U.S.-style slums then I don't think it could do better than it is — putting drug addicts on lifetime government disability, packing them into towers, giving them the key but otherwise throwing them away.
And now this brief word from my work ethic
I admit that it hasn't worked for me so far, but I still believe that in a market economy the only sustainable path off the street is through a job.
If the B.C. government really is going to give drug addicts housing and pay for it for the rest of their lives, then I guess that could work but I don't believe that the addicts themselves will ever work again and I have to ask how that is good for anyone?
As I've said before, I believe society has an interest in providing bridging services so homeless people can have the same 24-hour access to showers and laundry and storage that they would have if they weren't homeless. This would give homeless people the freedom to take jobs and work whatever hours an employer wanted them to without them having to sacrifice their hygiene.
Last time I tried full-time employment, the hardest part of my job was trying to fit my hygiene needs into my employer's work schedule.
I strongly approve of homeless prevention programs like the City of Vancouver's Rent Bank — long overdue, But if someone cannot be prevented from becoming homeless, I believe it's in society's interests to be available immediately to help clear any obstacles to a homeless person continuing with their existing job or rejoining the workforce.
The way things are now, as long as I'm homeless, it's easier and less stressful for me to not have a job and earn the money I do collecting returnable containers. That way I can control my hours.
You see, I'm the most understanding employer I know. I'll happily give myself time off to go do laundry when the laundromats are open or go get shower during the window of opportunity when city facilities with accessible showers are open.
Homelessness without drugs — like Wi without Fi?
With every reduction in the supply and addiction to street drugs, I believe you would see a direct reduction in the dangers associated with homelessness.
If you could eliminate just three street drugs — heroin, cocaine and amphetamines (and their siblings: crack and crystal meth) from the equation, just imagine how that would transform being homeless.
Without addictions…
- You're not nearly so forgetful so you don't lose nearly so much stuff.
- You don't stay up for days and then sleep like you're in a coma so you're not such easy prey for thieves.
- And there wouldn't be nearly so many thieves to worry about.
- Also less paranoia and aggression to fuel violent outbursts.
- Not to mention less induced and aggravated mental illnesses like schizophrenia and bipolarity.
- Plus much less cumulative and irreversible neurological brain damage.
Street drugs are certainly not the only stumbling block to people living on the street but I see addiction as the biggest barrier that both faces homeless people and keeps society from seeing homelessness for what it really is; extreme poverty.
How can it stand to not have all its legs?
Remember harm reduction, prevention, treatment and enforcement? Whatever the hell happened to Vancouver's four pillars strategy for dealing with drug addiction?
The harm reduction component is certainly visible and quite successful. The handing out of clean needles and crack pipes really does check the spread of transmittable diseases from sharing used drug paraphernalia and Vancouverites should be proud that no one using the Insite safe injection site in the Downtown Eastside has ever died from a drug overdose.
But where are the other three legs of the chair? Are they quietly working in the background; ridding our streets of drugs and drug dealers and encouraging and welcoming drug addicts into widely and easily available drug treatment programs?
I hope!
These days no one seems to talk about any part of the four pillars except harm reduction.
The authors of "Dying on the Streets" certainly don't seem interested in prevention, treatment or enforcement and that's a shame because I'm sure they know as well as anyone the enormous toll drug addiction takes on street people.
And that's my problem with the report; it declares homelessness dangerous without ever quite saying why.
I see homelessness as dangerous like a toxic work environment that can be made safer by changing the culture. The Megaphone report instead implies that homelessness itself is dangerous like a live volcano or wire-walking across Niagara Falls (many have tried and died!).
I'll take reports and people and governments seriously when they begin to get serious about facing up to the central role that street drugs and addiction play in the misery of homelessness.
In the meantime Megaphone magazine should be applauded for publishing the Dying on the Streets report.
It really is worth reading. It raises many good issues; calls for several sensible changes in the way statistics about homeless people are collected and eloquently puts forward the authors' belief that homelessness is the worst thing that can happen to a human being. It also has big colour photos and some heart-tugging stories that help put a necessary human face on homelessness.
And then, when you see a street corner vendors selling Megaphone magazine (the vendors are either on low incomes or homeless), consider buying a copy and making their life that little bit less awful.

Special │ What Were the Most Popular Songs in 2014?
New year 2015 is just around the corner. In 2014, we have seen especially large number of events and people who drew big attention. Now, when the year 2014 is going and the new year 2015 is coming up, let us review what kind of music drew big popularity in NAVER Music!
* The rankings in this page are based on data accumulated from January 2014 to November 30, 2014.
Chart.1 │ NAVER Music's 2014 Yearly Ranking
In the year 2014, larger variety of music has enjoyed popularity. "EYES, NOSE, LIPS", the title track of second full-length album [RISE] of TAEYANG who has established his presence as a solo artist this year, is in the No. 1 in the yearly ranking. "EYES, NOSE, LIPS" was placed in top places on music charts repeatedly after its release, and enjoyed a long run on charts thanks to YG artists' support to remake the song. Such popularity has not ended yet. "EYES, NOSE, LIPS" is still in the 66th place on November's monthly chart, to boast its never-ending popularity. In the second place, there is "Some" (Feat. Lil Boi of Geeks), a song that created sensation in Korea during whole year 2014. The song drew a big popularity by creating a hot buzzword with its lyrics "You seem to be mine, but not, but maybe mine". "A Midsummer Night's Sweetness" of San E and Raina who also created a duet sensation is in the third place. Then, IU's "Your Meaning" and "My Old Story" are in the yearly chart. Sung Si-Kyung is in the chart with his song for the original sound track of drama series "You Who Came from the Stars", Jung-In and Gary with their collaboration song, Idina Menzel with the song for "Frozen", and finally AKMU who is popular among not only the teens but also people in their twenties and thirties.
Chart.2│ NAVER Music's 2014 Download Ranking
Download ranking looks somewhat similar with the yearly ranking, but still different. IU's "Your Meaning" that made people in their thirties and forties recollect their old memories and teenagers recognize the charm of old-school songs this year, took the No.1. Soyou & Junggigo's "Some" is following IU, in the 2nd place, just as it is in the yearly ranking. Lee Sun-Hee's "You among Them" is standing out in the download ranking, being placed in the third place. Along with Lee Sun-Hee, there are some other singers who boast great influence on download rankings, such as Park Hyo-Sin also known as "God Hyo-Sin", as well as Kim Dong Ryul who has come back after a long absence.
Chart.3│What Are Albums that Swept NAVER Music Charts in 2014?
Singers who release full-length album always draw big attention, because recently, most of new songs are released as single albums. If a full-length album for which an artist puts his or her best efforts in every single song, it would be very meaningful for the artist. To look into what full-length albums have drawn big popularity during this year, YG artists' albums stand out. Among 10 albums ranked in top 10 on albums ranking, four are YG Entertainment's albums, to make the year 2014 "YG's year" (EPIK HIGH, AKMU, TAEYANG, and WINNER". Along with YG artists, IU's remake album "Flower Bookmark" that was also in top places on the yearly ranking and download ranking is in the albums ranking, too. Then, Toy and Kim Dong-Ryul who came back after a long absence, Jang Bum-Jun who created sensation with his solo album, and EXO who enjoyed a big popularity this year too, also put their name on the albums ranking.
Album│ TOP 10 on NAVER Music's 2014 Albums Chart
Outro│Farewell 2014
The year 2014 that has been literally eventful is going away. Now that the new year 2015 is coming, we can't wait for new music to come in 2015, which will entertain music fans' ears. Now, try the songs that enjoyed biggest popularity in 2014 and have nice holidays!
2014. 12. 26.

text: I'm connecting my Tosh SD220 DVD player to my Beko nr28426nds TV via scart. When using what appears to be the only RGB slot on my Vivanco SBX 95 DEC 4-input scart switcher. The picture, whilst crisp and sharp, has a decidedly green tinge to it all the time. It looks fine when put through one of the other (probably non-RGB) scart sockets on the switcher (AV3 or 4). I'm definitely using the RGB scart on the TV (AV1)! The sky box picture looks fine through the switcher's AV3 or 4 - not tried this through AV1 Does anyone know what the likely causes of this might be? My initial thoughts are: 1. The Tosh's scart output can be configured between video, s-video and RGB and I've not set the Scart output to RGB. 2. The Vivanco box is knackered. Not impossible since the AV2 connection is well and truly dead - hence I am using AV3 for my sky box and AV4 for the DVD Before I go and buy a new scart switcher (or try and dig out the tosh manual from the loft) does anyone know what the problem is likely to be? Thanks in advance Theo PS Mods - apologies if this belongs in the DVD players forum or elsewhere but it seemed a good place to start here.

The UK Sleep Walking Into North Korean Style Censorship & Control
Somebody in the UK is attempting to take control of how you spend your money. They want to stop you purchasing a product that is consumed by millions of people across the country, men and women alike. That product is "porn". Ok, before you turn off you might be interested to know who that person is and why they are attempting to do this and if you learned that truth it would make you question how this country is governed. It will also come as no surprise to you that the government department at the head of all this is none other than the Culture Department headed up by Maria Miller, who as I write is currently causing a bit of a storm with her over claiming of expenses.
I mentioned the product here was porn, but set that aside for one moment and just focus in on the detail. The person trying to get UK banks to vet your purchases and potentially prevent you buying something that is perfectly legal is a man called "Pete Johnson". He heads up a quango called ATVOD which stands for "The Authority for Televison and Video on Demand". Now you may not be aware of what ATVOD are and what they do, it would take many, many blog posts to cover that. The purposes of writing this is to detail the latest outrageous actions of ATVOD.
As mentioned above ATVOD are a quango created by another quango, OFCOM, at the behest of The European Union. So let's just pause there, a wholly undemocratic body, the EU, passed a directive that meant an unelected quango OFCOM could create another unelected SUB-QUANGO of itself called ATVOD. The purpose of ATVOD is to regulate video on demand content in the UK. Now I don't want to get into all the detail of what is VOD ? as that would take many, many pages and probably bore you to tears. That's for another post.
Also for another day is all the detail about why porn shouldn't and can't be regulated by ATVOD. But that is what ATVOD have tried to do, they have attempted to regulate porn sites operated from the UK only. That is, porn sites that have video content, if they have just still images OR even live webcam sites (because they are live) ATVOD cannot touch them and of course websites operated from overseas are also exempt. So adult video sites operated from the UK are not allowed to show R18 content in free view, but webcam sites and foreign sites can ! Crazy right ? It's a bit like having a law that says if you drive a car and were born in the UK you must have zero emissions from your exhaust but if you were born overseas you can drive around polluting to your hearts content. The internet is like the air we breath, it knows no geographic boundaries, you must either regulate everything evenly and fairly or do not even bother trying.
Now ATVOD realise how crazy this situation is (although they will never admit to making any mistakes or ever being behind the curve on anything), so now they are trying to get the government to bring in a new law (regulation) that essentially means the banks can stop you purchasing porn from any foreign website that shows explicit content in free view. They use statements like "it is of critical importance that legislation is enacted immediately". They think that the loss of business from the UK will make foreign based porn sites clean up their tours, well they are simply wrong. ATVOD would have you believe they are doing all this to protect children from porn, but of course it doesn't protect children from viewing porn on the huge free tube sites or live webcam sites or the plethora of adult social networks, none of which ATVOD can touch.
Weren't compulsory filters supposed to protect children from adult content ? Is it ATVOD's opinion that these filters are ineffective ? If child Z cannot view porn site X because his device is correctly filtered then why should UK adult Y be prevented from purchasing a membership to porn site X ?
The creation of ATVOD and it's attempt to regulate UK websites was a monumentally stupid idea and now in a desperate attempt to try and look like there is a point to their existence they are now stepping way outside their remit and trying to control how every UK adult spends their money. They know their stance on UK adult websites is untenable……..or should I say "he knows his stance on UK adult websites is untenable". Pete Johnson the chief executive of ATVOD, the drive behind everything they do. It's no wonder, look at these figures from the ATVOD Financial Report 2012/2013
Regulatory Fees = £534,141
Chief Executive Salary = £102,000
Chief Executive Pension = £13,260
That's 22%, nearly a quarter of ALL fees paid to this EU imposed quango go to benefit just one individual. I merely make the observation, is it right for somebody with such a vested interest, who is unelected, who heads an imposed quango, who uses the excuse of protecting your children (when they won't be) to be left to make the running in such fundamental issues as censoring the internet and how you spend your own money ?
One response to "The UK Sleep Walking Into North Korean Style Censorship & Control"
chris says :
what about bitcons? also its impossible to censor the internet and what ATVOD wants to do will fail

PHEW!!!!! 2nd in a row. I still pinch myself to make me realise if this is true, that I actually spent all the above mentioned period in one, single firm. I never ever did dream of even working for some firm, as in 9-5 types, forget about sticking around for such a long period. I should be felicitated for what I went through and still came all this way. In my department I saw my team change in same frequency as a child's diapers are changed. Sometimes I feel I'm enacting Jim Carrey's character of the 'The Truman Show' movie. It's not that I don't like what I am doing but the fact is that I don't like doing the same or similar stuff for eons. I always need change, fun, excitement, adrenaline, brain power, crisis, etc, etc. One thing I shouldn't miss saying is that, I gained a lot of knowledge about this field, lots of useful and necessary contacts and above all, gigantic amount of experience. Now I want to put to use all that I have achieved to thrust my career ahead. Someday I shall do that. Well few don't think that way….I still hear them say, 'why the hell you are still there?' And there are some who lost all hopes in me 😀 They say, 'you will never leave this firm and one day you will become the CEO'…lol. These are my real good friends and they want me to do good in life 🙂
I love my firm and it has given me more than I expected. It's a privelege working with such an organisation. So today 1st of March, my 2nd year job anniversary, I take an oath that I will work with dedication, put extra hard work and win my boss's confidence and faith and most of all, I will climb few more steps in the ladder of success……but definately in some other firm 😉 – (esp for all my well wishers)

Yesterday I rewatched the documentary Food Inc., a movie which never fails to remind me to keep checking my food labels, and in general question where my food comes from. I was going to write a synopsis of the movie but I found a really excellent compilation of highlights from it:
Documentaries and books enlightening us on where our food comes from and how big food companies control market prices are a great resource and I'm glad they exist. But I recall a couple they interviewed in Food Inc. that often fed their kids fast food and junk food knowing it wasn't good for them. They felt they had no other choices for feeding their family because vegetables and fruits from the supermarket were too expensive, whereas chips, sodas, and hamburgers were an affordable way to at least make their kids feel full at night.
I was struck by a scene of the family at the supermarket. The youngest child's eyes lit up at the sight of a discount on pears, only for her to be let down by her older sister who had to tell her that they still wouldn't be able to afford them.
At the end of this documentary, they say everyone gets three votes a day on the kinds of food we all want to be sold to us, but my first thought was, Not everyone is even sure if they can put three meals a day on the table for their family.
It's great to be informed about where our food comes from. It's great to try to eat healthy, but next time you sit down to eat, please remember all the families that can't afford to buy healthy food and those who don't even have close access to stores that sell healthy food if they could afford it in the first place.
Food Inc.'s message about getting to vote about which foods are sold to us every time we go to the store is still a great one. For those of you who can afford to, try to buy more fruits and vegetables and less processed foods. If middle to upper class Americans start demanding healthier food, prices for these foods will go down and maybe someday buying quality food for one's family won't be just a luxury.

This May Be the Greatest Thing Ever
October 23, 2007 at 7:21 am Leave a comment
Remember when I said I was going to talk about comics today?
It turns out I'm a terrible liar and I hate you all.
However, I'm not changing the subject out of spite. No, I'm changing it because something came up today that I can't let go by without comment; Uwe Boll, the most reviled filmmaker alive, will be coming to my school to give a talk and answer questions.
The question we all want answered? "Why ya gotta do it, Boll?"
Seriously, this is the man who directed House of the Dead (4% on Rottentomatoes.com), Bloodrayne (another 4%), and Alone in the Dark (with an astonishing 1%). He's bastardized more video game franchises than any man alive. Rumours persist that his films exist solely to exploit loopholes in German income tax law. And he's coming here, of all places, to talk.
Ladies and gentlemen, this may be the greatest thing ever.
I would love to get a chance to talk to him and ask what the hell is up, but there are certain dangers involved. This is, after all, a man who challenged his critics to a series of boxing matches, devastated them in the ring, and plans to include footage of his brutal victory on his next DVD release.
What I'm saying here is that if I take Uwe Boll to task for sucking, he may beat the shit out of me. That's something I'd like to avoid.
Still, an opportunity like this can't be passed up. I'll have to do all I can to meet with this man, who seems to make it his goal to destroy the medium I love.
It's going to be grand.

This post is for those who skip to the last few pages of the book just to see what they are in for and make sure it is worth sticking to the end. Of course at AstroLight this year you won't have even noticed the time go past and the ending is definitely worth waiting for! The last talk of the evening, held in the Scienceworks Amphitheatre, is the amazing cosmologist and astrophysicist, Dr Katie Mack from the University of Melbourne. Dr Mack is also affiliated with our major sponsor CAASTRO and other ARC Centre of Excellence, CoEPP.
In the Science world, Dr Mack is well known for her expertise in Dark Matter – that elusive particle(s) we cannot see and therefore know almost nothing about, yet makes up most of the Universe's matter.
Her work includes trying to predict and model the properties and interactions these particles may have so we have a better chance of finding them directly. Dr Mack was instrumental in getting the Stawell dark matter laboratory happening. The laboratory is being set up in an old gold mine in rural Victoria and hoping to be the first to directly detect a dark matter particle.
You may also know Dr Mack as AstroKatie, where she regularly discusses her life as a scientist and her thoughts on science in general on Twitter (@AstroKatie) and Facebook, writes a column for Cosmos magazine and can be seen popping up all over Australia and the world talking to people about astrophysics and the wonders of the Universe. Just last week, she conversed with Harry Potter's JK Rowling on Twitter and gave Prof Brian Cox an impromptu astrophysics lesson in person! Despite her busy research schedule, AstroKatie always has time to do outreach and believes it is very important to talk about her research to the general public.
At AstroLight, AstroKatie will be talking to you about Dark Matter and then opening the floor to you for a Q&A. So bring your most burning astronomy questions and get ready to be blown away by the answers.
Worth hanging around until the end? I think so. Have we saved the best to last? Maybe, but they are ALL sooo good!
You can follow the amazing AstroKatie on Twitter (@AstroKatie) and Facebook, read her column in Cosmos and her blog on Astrophysics. You can also see her on the podcast, Pint in the Sky, with Dr Alan Duffy.
See the official Scienceworks What's On page for further details and ticket sales. Tickets are limited, so get in quick!

Believe in your art. Believe in what you do. Have faith in yourself even if no one else does.
Writing is my passion and it's my joy. I want to spend the rest of my life doing it and I want to help others with it. I may not be the best at it, but I'm working to be the best I can. Even on my worst days I can always count on writing to be there for me.
Success isn't going to happen over night and yeah sometimes you'll need a plan to fall back on. That doesn't mean you quit. It's going to get hard. It's going to be frustrating. It will piss you the hell off and drive you crazy. That's what it means to have a passion. To truly love something.
You may not be able to do it full time, but a hobby is still something that'll put a smile on your face. Who knows? Maybe later on in life you can pick it back up and it'll take you to places you didn't believe possible. Just don't give up. Everyone deserves a chance to be happy and to be able to do what you love.
I don't want to stand on a soap box and tell you how to live your life. I just want you to know that someone is in your corner and someone is cheering for you. If it's not hurting you or anyone else than you should go for it. Find your happiness.

"It is an exciting time in the transport world. How people choose to travel is changing rapidly. This is providing incredible opportunities for changing how Government and the private sector re-configure their roles to make sure that Britain leads the world in the development of a modern transport system."
Carplus and Bikeplus welcomed the new Minister for Transport, Chris Grayling MP with this summary of the role and development of shared transport.
"Whilst major infrastructure developments loom large, it is the not-yet-in-focus transport innovations which are seen as defining the future of travel and are crystallising under the banner of Mobility as a Service. On demand services such as car sharing, bike sharing and car clubs mixed with public transport, walking and cycling are increasingly seen as the lifestyle choice for more and more people.
The private sector is leading both sector development and investment in the shared transport sector. For instance, the automotive industry is reshaping its business models to provide mobility services rather than just selling cars. At least five major car manufacturers are partnering with or developing their own car club or car share offers. Furthermore, global car hire operations have acquired or developed car clubs in major metropolitan areas, anticipating that this modal shift will become mainstream within ten years.
Meanwhile, London has shown the enormous benefits that a city-wide bike share scheme can bring, facilitating quick and convenient personal travel whilst easing the load on public transport at peak times, requiring a fraction of the road space and parking of cars and helping tackle air quality and carbon emissions. Ridesharing is becoming a norm in people's choices for travelling – especially to and for work.
The beauty of shared transport is in its broad popularity: it is not anti-car, but through enabling people to pick and mix their travel needs, leads to significant environmental, social and economic benefits.
Carplus and Bikeplus are the lead bodies nationally that provide impartial research on the impacts of shared transport. Car clubs, bike share and ridesharing have significant impacts on mileage driven, carbon emissions and road space requirements, and have shown their cost-effectiveness in delivering these outcomes.
A broad coalition of stakeholders in London have predicted 1 million car club users by 2025; an extension of this analysis suggests that up to 3.3 million people will be using car clubs across the UK by 2025.
While the sector is booming – with big global players getting involved – the opportunities and challenges for Government are to make sure that:
- Success is accelerated – by removing barriers to investment in delivery and expansion of services that deliver policy benefits.
- Opportunities for innovation in the sector are identified and realised. This is to ensure that the benefits of shared transport reach all types of community as well as to nurture new types of businesses.
Both of these require continuation of the development of DfT policy support, but relatively trivial amounts of funding; the private sector is poised to invest but requires conditions creating to provide confidence. Most companies are currently weighing up which countries across Europe, North America and (increasingly) Asia to invest in."

The leaders of three U.S. dairy organizations returned from a three-day trip to Mexico last week, reassured that the relationship with the industry's top trading partner remains strong amid the Mexican leaders' uncertainty about U.S. policy on North American trade.
Michael Dykes, D.V.M., IDFA president and CEO, was joined by Tom Vilsack, president and CEO of the U.S. Dairy Export Council (USDEC) and Jim Mulhern, president and CEO of the National Milk Producers Federation (NMPF) for the Mexican visit.
"Our conversations were very productive," said Dykes. "The leaders were candid about their current concerns with the U.S. and appreciated our commitment to our partnership."
The dairy leaders met with Ildefonso Guajardo, Mexico's Minister of Economy, José Calzada, Mexico's Secretary of Agriculture, and the officials' teams as well as representatives of FEMELECHE, a major Mexican producer organization and the Cámara Nacional de Industriales de la Leche, a major Mexican dairy foods association.
In the meetings, U.S. dairy leaders reiterated their steadfast commitment to preserving a strong trade partnership with Mexico, just as renegotiations on the North American Free Trade Agreement are expected to begin.
Extensive media coverage of the visit was captured in both Mexican and American news outlets.
IDFA is featuring highlights of social media coverage from trip in a Twitter Moment.

Blue Remembered Earth
Alastair Reynolds
Ace, Jun 5 2012, $26.95
In the latter half of the twenty-second century, Africa is the world's superpower. For the most part, after barely surviving the Anthropocene climatic change disaster, national hostilities, violent crime and poverty no longer exist as a death from disease or a murder in an outpost in Europe or Australia become featured on the Nairobi news.
In this pristine realm, Geoffrey Akinya relishes his field studies of the elephants of the Amboseli basin. However, his pleasure is disrupted, but not by the death of his space exploring grandma Eunice who was the matriarchal cornerstone of the powerful Akinya business empire. Instead, soon after Eunice's ashes are scattered on Mt. Kilimanjaro, he is blackmailed into looking at a potentially embarrassing incident on the moon where like elsewhere in the solar system colonization is growing by those who prefer not to reside inside of Earth's Surveyed Zones. He and his sister Sunday's mission are to insure no scandal erupts, but what they learn about a secret of their grandma shakes their core while this twin cousins Hector and Lucas take a different approach.
This is an exciting futuristic science fiction tale in which the world building is phenomenal though only surfaces when an aberration occurs like a Caucasian or not speaking Swahili although a key element the Mechanism monitoring humans seems to Big Brother intrusive (and too selective). Sunday is the more aggressive of the siblings as they investigate a moon incident that damns their family if surfaced and may destroy their world.

Story telling: How close can you get?
Posted by: ekta1007 on: February 28, 2009
They say if "to sell you don't have to tell, but to sell well , you have to tell well.." That prompts me into thinking, after all everything we do is about telling a story .
In his post " Is marketing evil" Seth lays a fundamental proposition on Marketing .
"Marketing is beautiful when it persuades people to get a polio vaccine or wash their hands before doing surgery. Marketing is powerful when it sells a product to someone who discovers more joy or more productivity because he bought it. Marketing is magic when it elects someone who changes the community for the better."
Think of it, if you can tell a story that persuade people to "DO" (Lead India Campaign) or ask "India" to learn to teach the disadvantaged children in the rural and under funded schools (Teach India)
Or, bring that sense of Unity through they Free hugs or "Mile Sur Mera Tumhara" . I think its all about how we tell the story, how compelling can it get .
Telling stories that change, inspire, and persuade people into believing and seeing that creative common vision is where our future is, for it is only when we take collective stand ,that the hopes and dreams morph into reality , for when we start to work, no destination however distant seems unachievable.
The future for something to believe in , and persist is infinite. Stick on !
There are six balls in an over, and you cant hit everyone one for a six. So, don't throw your wicket away. So, don't throw your wicket away. As long as you score more sixers than others, you're alright.' Piyush Pandey

I love my 50cc Kymco scooter for running around town, but it's almost embarrassingly slow to climb even moderate hills here in the flatlands of the Twin Cities. Sacramento is hillier, no? You may want to look at something a little more powerful, 150 to 250cc maybe, though it would probably require a motorcycle endorsement for your drivers' license. Just my opinion -- there are times when I think I should have bought a bigger scooter.

My eyes filled with tears as I scrolled through the Facebook news feed. Yet another couple was celebrating their anniversary. "Can't believe it's been 20 years since I said 'I do'" the post read. "More in love than ever!"
I felt the painful wound of divorce tear open once again. Why didn't I get my happily-ever-after? What is so wrong with me that I can't be loved? I did all the "right" things and everything still went wrong! This isn't how I planned my life!
There are times when you've done all you can do to save your marriage, but it still ends in divorce. I know the feelings of guilt, shame, loneliness, and disillusionment because I have been there. Love never gives up, right? Doesn't the Bible say that? How did this happen? What happens when "happily-ever-after" shatters?
The reality is marriage is not always a clear path with a guaranteed outcome. What do you do when you've done everything Jesus told you to do, but your spouse is hard-hearted like Jesus describes in Matthew 19:8? How do you recover?
The death of a marriage is not the end of what God has planned for your life.
The death of a marriage is not the end of what God has planned for your life.
Forgiveness cuts the chains that bind us to our past. We have a choice to live in anger or live in good. Is it easy to choose forgiveness? No. It is a daily (sometimes hourly) battle. But the Bible promises the fight is not ours; it is God's (Exodus 14:14).
We must choose to rid ourselves of the rage and anger of broken promises that chain us to the past (Ephesians 4:31-32, Proverbs 20:22, Romans 12:17-21).
Lay out your marriage before Jesus. Take responsibility where you need to, and ask Jesus to work on the areas in your life that need healing.
Psalm 32:5 tells us that Jesus releases our guilt when we confess to Him. Receive the grace He offers, and then grant yourself kindness and compassion (Psalm 103:12, Psalm 32:5, Romans 8:1).
The Bible assures us He is close to the brokenhearted and those whose spirits are crushed (Psalm 147:3, Psalm 34:18). Divorce is one of the most painful events you can go through. We are not meant to carry the pain alone.
Recognize this is an extremely vulnerable time. Seek wise counsel and encouraging godly friends you can confide in (Proverbs 3:13). If you have children, allow others to help you in daily activities so you can have time to recharge. You can't do life alone!
While divorce can devastate the very foundation of your life, God still has a unique and magnificent plan waiting for you. We would love to pray with you and support you as God turns your anguish into anticipation. Visit the Care Room after a Sunday service.

New tractor bus in Husby Plantation
Once again we're expanding our activities – this time for the many holiday makers in Husby and the surrounding area.
JyllandsAkvariet has in a cooperation with Klitferie Vedersø made a completely new tractor bus which already is in service every week for nature safaris inHusby Plantation.
It is primarily the nature guide from The Danish Nature Agency, Brian Kjølhede, who will be guiding the nature safaris in Husby Plantation. During the spring we offer weekly tours – and more often during the summer vacation period. Besides, there will be a number of special arrangements and events with the new tractor bus.
The natural surroundings in Husby and Vedersø Dune Plantation are very beautiful and varied with a rich animal life. Depending on the time of year we will take a closer look at roo deer, adders, insects, plants, and whatever else we meet on the way.
See more on seasidesafari.dk
Are you planning an outing for your personnel, family group, or just a really unforgettable experience? Then contact JyllandsAkvariet and we will design a tour to suit your wishes.

Have a Good Laugh!
Having a good laugh is a great way to reduce the stress of family life.
Create your own "humor first aid kit" for days that don't go well. Collect items that will make you and your kids laugh….silly books, squeaky toys, cartoons, and funny videos.
Find a special place to tape up cartoons and other funny items….if your kids like silly poems, they'll love Shel Silverstein's Where the Sidewalk Ends (Harper & Row).
Some families like to write stories about funny things that have happened to them….you may want to create your own silly stories.
Every library is full of humorous stories and songs that your children will love. And don't forget the joke and riddle books. Ask your librarian to recommend a few.
Laughter is not a cure-all, but it certainly helps.

Original TRANSFORMING GRACE is of Christ but modern MODIFIED "GRACE" is of the world. The modern Church doctrine of libertinism based on trendy philosophical grace is from hell. Modern PHILOSOPHICAL GRACE teaches that their "grace" gives you pardon from sin with permission to be in bondage to sin. Ancient SCRIPTURAL GRACE teaches that Grace brings pardon for sin with power to be victorious over sin.
(11) For the GRACE of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men,
(12) Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live sensibly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
According to Scriptures, being UNDER LAW is for kindergarten slavery and external cleansing but with only simple external guilt, while being UNDER GRACE is for advanced sonship and internal cleansing but with more serious internal guilt!
Mat 5:21-22
(21) You have heard that it was said by them of old time, You shall not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:
(22) But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, You fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
Mat 5:27-28
(27) You have heard that it was said by them of old time, You shall not commit adultery:
(28) But I say unto you, That whosoever looks on a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Gal 4:1-9
(1) Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differs nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
(2) But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
(3) Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
(4) But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
(5) To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.
(6) And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
(7) Therefore you are no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
(8) But then, when you knew not God, you did service unto them which by nature are no gods.
(9) But now, after you have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn you again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage?
Heb 9:13-15
(13) For if the BLOOD OF BULLS and of goats, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies to the PURIFYING OF THE FLESH:
(14) How much more shall the BLOOD OF CHRIST, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, PURGE YOUR CONSCIENCE from dead works to serve the living God?
(15) And for this cause he is the mediator of the NEW COVENANT, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the FIRST COVENANT, they who are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
In the Scriptures, being UNDER LAW is powerless over sin but has simple temporal death penalties, while being UNDER GRACE is powerful over sin but has serious eternal death penalties!
This is what the ancient Church taught about SCRIPTURAL GRACE from the Apostles till the last century, until trendy false Christianity began to paganize the Church with their modern PHILOSOPHICAL GRACE, which does not agree with biblical teaching on Grace.
Rom 3:31
(31) Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
Gal 2:16-18
(16) Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
(17) But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.
(18) For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
Heb 12:25
(25) See that you refuse not him that speaks. For if they escaped not who refused him that spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape, if we turn away from him that speaks from heaven:
Heb 10:28-29
(28) He that despised Moses' LAW died WITHOUT MERCY under two or three witnesses:
(29) Of how much WORSE PUNISHMENT, suppose you, shall he be thought worthy, who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant, with which he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and has done insult unto the Spirit of GRACE?

Builders Risk - Unique Non-standard Coverages
CEUs: 1
Speaker(s): Robin Federici, CPCU, AAI, ARM, AINS, AIS, CPIW, President of Insurance Education & Training Associates
Construction projects involve unique risks. Covered property may be owned by different parties, property may be located on and off the job site, project property values fluctuate, and the definition of "contractors' tools" varies. The standard property forms cannot address the unique needs when a property is under construction. We will review several non-standard provisions found in many of the builders risk forms and highlight what should be considered when negotiating coverage for the construction industry. This is one "project" you won't want to miss!
Robin Federici , CPCU, AAI, ARM, AINS, AIS, CPIW has been writing and presenting insurance education programs to the insurance industry for over 30 years. She formed Insurance Education & Training Associates (IETA) in 2003, after serving the Independent Insurance Agents of Rhode Island (IIARI) for sixteen years; first as Director of Education and subsequently as Assistant Executive Vice President.
This followed a lengthy career in both underwriting and sales with insurance agencies and companies. Even during her agency and company days, Robin created education courses to present to her peers as a volunteer instructor for IIARI.
Robin is a technical insurance and agency management expert with the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America's Virtual University. This role, coupled with her extensive background in both the agency and company ranks, and her love of teaching, adds a unique dimension and immediate and practical value to the programs she presents to insurance professionals countrywide.Robin is also the author of Swiss-Re's current E&O program - "E&O Management - Meeting the Challenge of Change".

"Don't you worry about your brother." Engetsu's grin wasn't quite Isshin's; more serious, and yet more reckless. "His partner's already yelling at him. Give him another day or two. They'll work it out." He slanted a look at the girls. "'Course, that means you're going to have to share him. Shinigami protect. You think he's bad looking after the youkai now…."
"We'll have to sit on him so he gets some sleep," Karin said dryly. Smiled, in one of the best Sibling Being Evil expressions Loki had seen outside of a mirror. "Or we could get Rukia to sit on him."
"Karin!" Yuzu protested.
"That's the spirit!" Isshin gave his dark-haired daughter two thumbs up, echoed by Engetsu's raven-cackle. "Grandkids!"
"Isshin!" Loki sputtered, trading a long-suffering look with Yuzu. The man was shameless. "He's barely sixteen."
"You never know how much time you'll have." Old sorrow darkened Isshin's eyes, before he shooed them all toward the door. "Ichigo's going to need some quiet to figure it out. Who wants ice cream?"
"You, too?" Loki arched an eyebrow at the cheering tengu.
"It's Karakura." Engetsu chuckled. "You think anybody's even going to notice?"
Okay. Enough of this.
Ichigo lay back on his bed, scowl firmly in place. Kon was out of sight under his desk, quiet except for the rustle of pages and a few salacious snickers. Loki was oddly absent; clinic or seminars, Ichigo wasn't sure. The girls were downstairs putting together a project for class, with the odd groan drifting upstairs as Isshin helped.
The silence from his closet was deafening.
She's out there. Hunting the Hollows, with Uryuu and everybody.
I should be out there.
:Come and find me.:
Ichigo slammed his head back into the pillow, wondering if there was a way to go deaf inside your own head. It'd started as a faint whisper, tickling his spine in the darkness of that awful night he'd given up Rukia's powers. It'd escalated with every sight of the waxing moon, until now it drummed loud as his own heartbeat.
:Come and find me. Come and find me. Come and find me, Ichigo, I want to fight!:
"Makes two of us," Ichigo growled under his breath. "You want a fight?"
Oh, this was a bad idea. Everything Loki had ever taught him said playing with magic when you were pissed was stupid–
Rukia's gone. Most of my power's gone. Even shifting hurts. My friends, 'Miji, all the Karakura youkai – they need me. And I'm not there.
You want a fight, old man? You're going to get one.
A quick breath, and the world fell away.

I busted out an old favorite recently: Zoya Channing. I just had a huge hankering to wear it, which means something, since I own so many polishes that I gotta admit I've rarely worn the same polish more than once or twice. 🙂
Here's two coats in outdoor natural light, topped with Essie Good to Go top coat:
Channing's from Zoya's 2013 fall collection, and I love it just as much today as I did three years ago. ❤ It's a fiery, coppery metallic red-orange with a rosy pink base, interestingly enough. You can't usually see the pink, but when the light hits just right, it's there. I think it's the subtle pink cast that does it for me over other red oranges.
Great formula, easy to apply, dries reasonably fast, and opaque in two coats. What is there not to love?
On a side note, I think my fervor for nail polish has generally somewhat mellowed as of late, though not because I love lacquer any less. It's just that my need to acquire new polishes has kind of plateaued, probably because I've got so many at this point that I typically feel my color needs are mostly sated, and it takes a lot to really excite me about a polish these days.
I did recently lust after the new Pure Ice Halloween collection for this year, which has some fun Halloween-themed glow-in-the-dark glitter toppers at an eye-popping $2 per bottle…but I've tried two Walmarts so far with no luck. I don't want to pay a scalper $6-7 bucks for them, either! I guess the search continues. 🙂

Key Features:
1. Simple upload process - One patient's data entry does not take more than 30 Sec
2. Direct OCR reading in the App that can fill in the data fields
3. Cloud sync of the data
4. All contributors to be acknowledged in the Research Publications
The Main aim of Trauma Registry is to study the fracture patterns and configurations. In trauma registry the basic data that is required in age and gender of the patient along with preoperative X rays. We will be conducting epidemiological studies on the various fractures patterns and publishing the manuscript. Everyone who contributes cases in the app will get an acknowledgement in the research Publication. Surgeons contributing more than 100 cases will be in the authors list and surgeons contributing less than 100 cases will be in the acknowledgement list. This will help us understand the fracture variations across the country and also the primary treatment modalities that are used to treat these fractures.
Currently we are starting with Four Projects - Hip Registry, Proximal Tibia Registry, Wrist Registry and Paediatric Supracondylar Registry. You can contribute any trauma case but when you are filling data for any of the above four, simply mention the name of the study in the 'Name of the Bone' tab in the app. More specific details can be filled in the special comments section. For any query please feel free to write to us at firstname.lastname@example.com
We believe together we can create history by having largest number of data regarding fracture patterns.

An explosion caused by an Israeli air strike on a house in Gaza City.
Harinder Mishra
At least 12 Palestinians were killed on Sunday in Israeli air strikes on Gaza with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowing that the military offensive would continue as long as necessary, even as the death toll in the 48-day war neared 2,200.
Israel on Sunday took its military campaign to a new level by flattening a 13-storey apartment tower in Gaza following a warning to residents to evacuate.
The strikes in the southern town of Rafah came just hours after Israel bombed an apartment tower in GazaCity, collapsing the 12-storey building with 44 apartments. Around 30 people were wounded but no one was killed, officials said.
The targeting of large buildings appears to be part of a new military tactic by Israel. Over the weekend, the army began warning Gaza residents in automated phone calls that it would target buildings harbouring "terrorist infrastructure" and that they should stay away.

A Darrieus-type hydro-turbine has been developed for the utilization of extra low head hydraulic energy. In the case of a ducted Darrieus-type hydro-turbine which consists of an intake, a runner, a casing and a draft tube, it has been found that the Darrieus runner with the narrow intake can generate larger torque without deterioration of efficiency than that with the parallel intake with the constant width. In this paper, the effect of the shape of the inlet nozzle on the performance of the Darrieus-type hydro-turbine operated in open channel flow is investigated both experimentally and numerically. Tested nozzles are two types of two-dimensional symmetric inlet nozzle, Half Diameter curved nozzle (HD nozzle) and Straight Line nozzle (SL nozzle). As a result, the Darrieus hydroturbine with SL nozzle generates larger power and yields higher efficiency than that with HD nozzle. In addition, the effects of nozzle converging angle and outlet width of SL nozzle on the turbine performance are investigated. As a result, it is found that the Darrieus hydroturbine with SL nozzle having large converging angle generates larger power with higher efficiency than that with the nozzle having small converging angle. And then, it is found that the generated power increases when SL nozzle with large outlet width is installed.
