Public health school asks "how do we undo racism?"
A new effort at the Tulane School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine aims to revise the way racial health disparities are discussed, studied and taught in the classroom and beyond.
The work, supported by students, school administrators, faculty and staff, included several public seminars and discussions this spring. The goal? To name and define racism, ask "how is racism operating here?" in personal and professional situations, and strategize to act.
Last week, that effort included two multi-day Undoing Racism workshops, facilitated by the People's Institute for Survival and Beyond, and hosted by the Tulane Center of Excellence in Maternal and Child Health (CEMCH) and Tulane Mary Amelia Women's Center (MAC). More than 50 people attended, including students, faculty, staff, and partners from local organizations.
"We anticipate attendees will take what they've learned – new language and methods for examining and addressing racism – and apply it to their work, whether that's in classes, research, or community engagement," said Shokufeh Ramirez, Assistant Director of the Tulane CEMCH.
Each workshop is designed to educate, challenge and empower people to "undo" the racist structures that hinder effective social change. The training – which the People's Institute facilitates regularly worldwide – is based on the premise that racism has been systematically constructed and that it can be "undone" when people understand where it comes from, how it functions, why it is perpetuated, and what we can do to dismantle it.
In conjunction with Undoing Racism, another series of public seminars this spring called "Racing Toward Equity" also focused on cultivating equity.
"All of these discussions and workshops aim to elevate Tulane's commitment to diversity, justice, and equity, especially when it comes to health and how systems have been designed to negatively impact communities of color," said Kat Theall, Director of MAC and associate professor in Global Community Health and Behavioral Sciences.

Get Real-Life Experience with a Practicum at the New Orleans Health Department!
Project Title: Community Health Assessment Intern
Background on the Project: The New Orleans Health Department (NOHD) seeks to address population-level health issues so that all New Orleanians can achieve their full potential. A hallmark of this is the Community Health Improvement (CHI) process, out of which came the first city-wide Community Health Assessment (CHA) and Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP). These planning tools have guided NOHD, partners, and stakeholders. NOHD will continue its CHI work by updating these tools to ensure that collaborative efforts are focused on the most pressing health issues affecting residents. NOHD and the CHI Steering Committee will utilize the Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP) framework to guide CHI activities. The intern will work closely with the CHI Coordinator, CHI Steering Committee, local public health partners, and broader community to plan and implement the 4 MAPP Assessments. The intern will compile and analyze data in a report summarizing assessment findings that will be shared with internal participants and that will inform the Community Health Profile report. NOHD strongly desires for the CHA to reflect its departmental focus on health equity and envisions the CHA being a strong example of how the Department and City government can incorporate a Health Equity lens in their work. For more about this organization, visit nola.gov/health.
Students Responsibilities and Activities: NOHD will require having a set schedule for the CHI practicum, yet will allow for flexibility as it is needed to accommodate major practicum events and student conflicts. The recommended number of hours worked per week is 20. Following this recommendation, the approximate start date will be within the week of May 15thand end date within the week of August 28th. The intern will:
- Assist in planning and implementing Steering Committee convenings, Core Advisory Group meetings, and subcommittee meetings as they relate to the 4 MAPP Assessments.
- Research assessment methods utilized by other nationally accredited health departments; report on best practices and implications for New Orleans' CHI process
- Assist in the development of a plan to monitor and evaluate the 4 MAPP assessments and design evaluation tools to support that plan.
- Assist in designing the 4 MAPP assessments, ensuring they incorporate methods to measure health inequities, uncover patterns of health inequity, and shed light on root causes of health inequities.
- Support the collection of primary and secondary assessment data.
- Display cultural competence and cultural humility while engaging with various audiences.
- Compile and analyze data collected through each of the 4 MAPP assessments that includes an analysis of the impact of the social determinants of health on health outcomes.
- Summarize findings in a MAPP assessment report that employs health literacy techniques, and utilizes quality and performance tools and technological resources available through the City's Information Technology and Innovation Department.
The intern will be required to work a total of 300 hours. For students in the Global Community Health and Behavioral Sciences Department, this internship will fulfill your practicum and project requirements, upon approval from your faculty advisor. The intern will also be required to fulfill all reporting requirements mandated by the school's practicum manual.
Supervisor: Jodi Dyer, LMSW, Community Health Improvement Coordinator at NOHD.
Transportation: Car is not required, but a form of reliable transportation is. Prior practicum students have chosen to bike, walk, or utilize Tulane's shuttle services due to the complexities of parking at or around the practicum site. The majority of work will be conducted on the 8th floor of New Orleans City Hall, 1300 Perdido Street, New Orleans.
Application deadline: May 15 at 5 p.m. Send a resume, cover letter, and contact information for two professional references to: Naomi King Englar, email@example.com, Tulane PRC Communications and Dissemination Coordinator, 1440 Canal Street, Suite 1829, Mailcode #8319, New Orleans LA 70112

Brendan Dassey was a major wrestling fan who constantly watched his favorite stars on TV before getting locked up … this according to his half-brother, who says he's now on a mission to find a former WWE Superstar willing to visit the "Making a Murderer" subject behind bars.
Pro Wrestling Sheet spoke with Brad Dassey — who recently released a rap song about the famous trial — and he says wrestling was always on TV in their dad's house growing up.
Brad says he's unsure which wrestlers were Brendan's favorite, so he wrote to his brother in jail last night asking and plans to reach out to all of them. It's worth noting that the prison does have restrictions on who can visit though, so anyone willing to help could always be denied.
As for whether Brendan has been able to watch wrestling whatsoever in jail since he was put away in 2006, Brad tells us he's almost certain it's a no — but one fan of the show is sending him a WrestleMania box set that he instructed Dassey to hold onto until his brother is released.
If you haven't seen the Netflix series, Brendan complains to his mom during episode 4 about not being able to watch WrestleMania in jail and it's heartbreaking.
Brendan is up for parole in 2048.

ANTHONY JOSHUA has banned his mum from Wembley for his clash with Wladimir Klitschko.
The 27-year-old has told his mum she isn't allowed at Wembley for his Saturday night heavyweight battle with the legendary Ukrainian.
Joshua has also requested that his mum, Yeta Odusanya, doesn't watch it on TV.
However the IBF heavyweight champion's father will be at the fight.
He told Sky Sports: "My old man will be there but I don't really let my mum come to my fights.
"I've banned her. It's not a place where you want to see your kid, I don't think, at a fight. My dad can watch it, but not my mum.
"I would rather she not be there. One of my cousins will call her after the fight. She enjoys it all, though, and she gets a few freebies."
IBF heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko will finally come face to face this Saturday at Wembley, in front of 90,000 boxing fans, with the vacant WBA and IBO belts are up for grabs.
Klitschko lost his last fight to Tyson Fury – the 41-year-old's first loss in over ten years.
Joshua won't be taking much from that fight though, as he see himself and Fury as completely different fighters.
The 2012 Olympic champion said: "I haven't watched the Fury fight much. Fury is completely different to me.
"I can't box the way Fury boxed and expect it to be as simple as that for me. I just look at little parts of it, not the whole thing.
"Klitschko just didn't show up in that fight. A lot of great fighters have made mistakes and come back, so I'm expecting the best Klitschko.
"I'm just worried about what I can do. Everyone is different when you fight them. I'm going to worry about myself and how I'm feeling."

After years of experience working in the kitchens of several regional restaurants individually, in July 2016 chefs Christopher Lund & Mark Lawrence finally decided to join culinary forces in the beautiful resort town of Lake Placid, NY with a vision:
"Take good, fresh ingredients and prepare them simply, to keep them delicious without messing them up with culinary silliness, and then use just enough imagination to provide a creative twist to keep things interesting. Also, provide great service in a casual, comfortable atmosphere at prices most everyone can afford. We want to be a gathering place for our local friends to feel 'at home' so they return again and again, but also for tourists to feel welcome."
The result has been Back Alley Bistro – and it's looking like that vision has been fulfilled…
Sorry we're CLOSED

Harford County kindergarten teachers are furious over the school system's new snow policy designed to minimize the amount of time morning kindergarten students miss because of delayed openings.
The school system decided this week that morning kindergarten students would be expected to attend school even when the opening is delayed. In the past, morning kindergarten has been canceled when opening was delayed.
The policy was implemented because school officials were forced to cancel morning kindergarten for much of January. Last month, morning kindergartners went to school three days, compared with nine for their afternoon counterparts.

Brandon George of the Dallas Morning News explains why the Cowboys will have to wait until the offseason to address WR Laurent Robinson's contract.
Dallas can't offer Robinson a new contract during the season because he qualifies as a vested veteran which means that he has four-years of experience and signed a a minimum-salary deal with the team.
This guarantees that Robinson will be a free agent at the end of the season and considering his 2011 production (49 catches for 792 yards and 9 touchdowns) there should be plenty of interest in the wide receiver.
"There will be a lot of teams that want him, but at the right, proper time if the Cowboys say, 'We want to make you our guy here,' nothing would make us happier," said Robinson's agent Harold Lewis. "Common sense tells you they want him back."
This years class of free agents offers a plenty of options at wide receiver which could have impact on a guy like Robinson as a lot of the big money deals could be given out to some of the big name free agents. Here's our Top 50 Free Agents list.

DIABETES : Cegah sebelum terkena .....
- Tidak salah bagi mereka yang tidak mempunyai masalah ini untuk turut sama mengambil langkah berjaga-jaga bagi mengelakkan diabetes.
- Dengan berbagai usaha yang boleh dilakukan seperti mengawal makanan, olahraga, dan pengambilan ubat penurun gula dalam darah, maka diharapkan gula dalam darah dapat dikendalikan.
- Namun mungkin ramai yang tidak tahu bahawa perancangan dan pengawalan makanan serta olahraga merupakan usaha penting dalam mengendalikan kandungan gula dalam darah.
- Didapati ramai penderita diabetes melitus yang hanya mengutamakan ubat penurun gula dalam darah tanpa mengamalkan pola makan yang dianjurkan serta berolahraga. Oleh sebab itu, kebiasaannya, hasilnya kurang memuaskan!.
- Gula darah yang terkawal baik dalam jangka pendek akan dapat menghilangkan gejala diabetes melitus sedangkan dalam jangka panjang dapat mencegah pelbagai jenis penyakit lain yang boleh berpunca daripada diabetes melitus
- Gula darah dikatakan terkawal baik jika pada keadaan gula dalam darah dua jam setelah makan adalah 120 hingga 160 mg/dl. Disamping itu perlu juga diperhatikan berat badan agar menuju berat badan yang ideal serta kadar lipid darah (kolesterol, trigliserid) juga dalam paras normal.
- Dengan mengendalikan gula darah secara baik dalam waktu lama, banyak penyakit yang berpunca daripada diabetes melitus yang mungkin dapat dicegah. Ini penting diketahui oleh penderita diabetes melitus.
- Penyakit kronis biasanya timbul setelah bertahun-tahun menderita diabetes melitus dengan gula yang tidak terkawal dengan baik.
- Gula dalam darah yang tetap tinggi dalam waktu lama dapat menimbulkan gangguan pembuluh darah otak (stroke), pembuluh darah mata (gangguan penglihatan sampai kebutaan), pembuluh darah jantung (penyakit jantung koroner), pembuluh darah ginjal (penyakit ginjal kronik), serta pembuluh darah kaki (luka yang sukar sembuh).

DIABETES - WHAT IS HbA1c TEST?
What is glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c)?
It is the glucose molecules that irreversibly bind to haemoglobin molecules in red blood cells.
How is HbA1c tested?
HbA1c is tested through measuring the amount of glycosylated haemoglobin in your blood. The higher the glucose concentration in blood, the higher the level of HbA1c.
It is an important long term marker of average blood sugar levels (reflecting average glucose level over the past 2-3 months). Your doctor may order this test if you have diabetes as it involves sending blood samples to clinical laboratories to be tested.
What does your HbA1c reading tell you?
< 6.5% : Glucose in Control
6.5 - 7.5% : Borderline
> 7.5% : Poor Control
What is the difference between a HbA1c test and an instant blood glucose test?
HbA1c results are not affected by daily activity levels, type of foods consumed, or medications unlike instant blood glucose test.

Recent changes in regulations allow antlerless deer to be taken on coastal game lands throughout the hunting season.
A group of hunters gathered along Shaw Highway in Pender County last Saturday. Miles Rochelle, Steven Evans, Jeff Parkhurst, Mark Parkhurst and Ben Arens had been hunting all morning with a pack of Walker hounds, trying to flush a deer into the open.
However, seeing a deer running in high gear across a road or trail is not the same as hitting it with a shot, or several shots. One hunter had gotten lucky, taking a deer cleanly with a 2 3/4-inch load of No. 00 buckshot fired from a 12-gauge shotgun.
"My brother Mark shot the only deer we've killed," said Jeff Parkhurst. "We're hunting with his dogs, so we are calling him the hunt master today."
Mark Parkhurst eventually emerged from the forest, walking along a gated trail. Back at his truck, he placed a hound back inside the kennel.
"It's opening day of the gun deer season," Mark Parkhurst said. "Everybody who hunts is out in the woods today."
The hunters had seen two deer, even though Mark Parkhurst was using 10 hounds to course the deer, and there were several more hunters in his party surrounding the block of woods.
"The one who shoots the deer gets to clean it and keep it," Jeff Parkhurst said. "We don't split the deer we kill, unless someone else wants part of it take home to eat. There's a lot of hunting season ahead, so everybody here should get a chance to shoot at least one deer before the season ends."
Most of the hunters live in Pender and Onslow counties. All of them are related by blood or marriage. Depending upon their work schedules, they hunt together one or two days per week throughout the deer-hunting season.
On this day, the hunt was a social event, a good excuse to be in each other's company. They teased each other about their shooting and about which one would get to use the GPS receiver that was paired to the electronic transmitters on the collar of each dog. The tracking collars helped them determine the best way to find any hounds that had yet to make it back into the kennel so they could be transported to another hunting area.
Chesley Ward, a North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission technician from the Holly Shelter Depot, drove by. His depot was less than a mile away, and he was out looking for hunters who had good luck on opening day.
"We are collecting deer data for the Big Game Committee to use in setting the hunting regulations," he said. "We want to see what our hunters are harvesting."
The hunters took the button buck from Parkhurst's truck and carried it to Ward's pickup, which was equipped with a hoist and a scale. The deer weighed 50 pounds, and Ward noted the weight on a form.
"We want to know the deer's weight, age, sex and take antler measurements of any bucks," he said. "We are trying to get the information from at least 25 deer in each county and we've collected data on 13 Pender County deer already. It's starting out to be a good season."

This little story should give you a glimpse into my dear husband's heart. He's a very carrying man, very sweet natured. And the fact that he's a former fireman and current police officer shouldn't shock anyone. He's always willing to help at a moments notice and gets turned on by the sound of sirens.
Lately I've noticed that his usual hair cut has been, well, awful! Frank's hair cut isn't that complicated. It's just a number one clippers around the side and I think a number two up top. Easy, right? It's either lopsided, or has a few stray hairs around the ear. One time he came home with bangs!
Frank finally explained to me the man who cuts his hair has a bit of a shaky hand and doesn't always do a good job. I asked him why he doesn't go to some one else? We have a swanky new men's salon that opened up down the street with huge flat screen TV's with sports on 24/7 – a real men's den so to speak.
Frank says that he feels bad for the old man, that he doesn't have that many customers. So he continues to go. He often "fixes" his hair cuts when he gets home. There's a lot you can do with spray gel.
I just look at him and his horrible hair cut and smile.
I am one lucky wife.

If you are living in Myanmar and aspiring to visit Vietnam then you can obtain a Vietnam visa by two ways.
Applying online to get a Vietnam visa
People applying for the visa require filling and submitting an online application form. After processing of the visa, you can get the approval letter issued by the Vietnam immigration department. Using the letter, you can obtain the visa within 1 to 3 working days, depending on the type of services used.
The following are the steps associated for applying for the visa:-
Fill and submit online application form (Available on certain selected websites)
Use payment gateways like Pay Pal, Bank Transfer, and Credit Card to make payments for the service
Receive the approval letter via e-mail within 24 hours in case of normal service or in 2 to 9 hours if the service is rush hour one.
On arriving at the Vietnam International Airport, you need to exhibit the following document to collect the visa:-
• The letter of approval
• The passport
• 2 passport size photographs
• Stamping fee
Contacting the consulate or embassy of Vietnam
Visit the Vietnam consulate located close to your place in the business hours to apply for the visa. There can be a variation of visa procedure and fee depending on the embassy. It takes about 3 working days to obtain your visa.
The applicant can get the contact information on Vietnam consulate in Burma from certain websites.
Other requirements for obtaining the visa:-
• Stamping fee
• Service fee
• The applicant's passport (not be more than 6 month old)
Procedure to extend visa
Staying in Vietnam for more than 6 months with the visa that one procured at the time of visit is not allowed. Therefore, to extend your stay, you need to apply for visa extension. Failing which, you require paying a penalty for overstaying.
The procedure for Visa extension for Burmese citizens is as follows:-
• The passport (Original)
• A proposal form for extension of stay (Form N5)
• A confirmation from the local police for staying until the visa is not extended
The extension process requires at the most 5-7 working days. On paying extra fees, you can get the extension process completed in 1-3 days.
Factors on which the fee for visa extension depends
The fee required for extending the visa is dependent on certain factors and they are the following:-
• The nationality of the applicant
• The type of the old visa
• Recent arrival date of the applicant
• The airport where the applicant had arrived
• The type of visa the client wants to extend to
• Information of the client's company (if present) in Vietnam
• The city where the clients prefer to stay (temporarily) in Vietnam
The above information gives a brief account on how one can get Visa at the Embassy of Myanmar in Vietnam. For more information on the topic, you can visit any relevant websites.

Filed under: innovation, learning
"The challenge of innovation is that we are all boxed in by what we know, by our assumptions about how things work."
Innovation – a new way of doing something (according to a few online sources).
This has to be one of the most fascinating concepts/actions in the world today. The power of the human mind to overcome obstacles in situations where problems need to be solved. Or when we just feel like solving them. Do we really need a phone that surfs the internet, finds the nearest pizza parlor, plays music and takes photos? Not really. But someone figured out how to do it.
Take Moore's law for example – that computing power doubles every two years. We went from a time where computers were the size of a large room to a convergence device like an iPhone, which could process hundreds of thousand more bits of data in a shorter time. And it fits in your pocket.
Who knows what's next. Computer implants in our bodies?
The only limitation is the human mind. Ask someone 200 years ago if we would be able to move around without horses. Probably not. Then again, the average car today has about 150 of them 🙂

breakfast ranting
January 30th, 2008
Youth workers surprised by teen backlash? Well, no, that should read "surprised by backlash against teens", it's not the teens doing the backlashing, but people who should deserve the term "adult", but who apparently have not yet reached that level of maturity. And surprised? No. Shocked or disgusted, perhaps, but surprised makes it sound like they unexpectedly got something they always wanted. Here's what I'm ranting about:
The next day 15-year-old Pihema Clifford Cameron was allegedly stabbed to death by 50-year-old businessman Bruce William Emery.
The stabbing allegedly occurred during an argument that arose after Pihema was about to tag a fence on a property.
He was chased and stabbed.
Yesterday, Christchurch City councillor Barry Corbett defended the man's actions.
"If I was on the jury, I would let him get away with it, but that is just me," he said during a Christchurch City Council debate over whether to introduce bylaws to tackle graffiti, vandalism and substance abuse.
The day after the murder Manukau City mayor Len Brown said tagging was the starting point for youngsters to go on to commit more serious crimes.
So here we have a Christchurch City Councillor and the Manukau City mayor justifying the murder of a teenage boy. And why? Because the boy was caught trying to tag a fence. That's right, a 50 year old man catches a couple of teenagers trying to tag his fence and gets in an argument with them. Alright so far. But then he chases them up the road and stabs one of them with a knife, killing him. And these two clowns who should be pillars of the community try to justify this man's action.
We are not talking any measured, appropriate response here. We are talking a 50 year old business man murdering a 15 year old boy for attempting to tag a fence. Of all the reasons to kill someone, this has got to be the stupidest, most pathetic, most incredibly immature reason ever.
And a Christchurch City Councillor and the mayor of Manukau City try to justify it.
It's when I read reports like this that I think I'm probably better off just staying in China.
Well, this business man has yet to go to trial, so we have to add the word "alleged" in front of anything: This alleged grown man allegedly stabbed a 15 year old boy to death for trying to tag his fence.
And as for Barry Corbett's stupidity: Correct me if I'm wrong, but if he were sitting on the jury, his job would be to decide whether this alleged grown man had broken the law or not, and not to decide whether he was right or wrong, justified or unjustified in breaking the law. And barring some plea of temporary insanity or some other mitigating circumstance allowed by the law, if it turned that this alleged grown man had stabbed this boy to death, then Corbett and his fellow jurors would have no choice but to swallow their puerile bravado and find him guilty.
This would be ridiculous if it weren't so utterly disgusting.

Well said Cr. Corbett.If these tagger scumbags 'get the drift' that they risk a bashing or worse, then maybe they might think again before defacing public/private property with their illegible hierogyphics.
Regards Chch…these simians could at least keep their tagging to the east of town from whence they issue forth, and where their peers can admire their "artistic flair" lol.

Should I take if from your screen name that you are a fan of Steve Jobs?
But more to the point: Your comment is about as offensive as I will tolerate. Push it any further, you'll be banned.
But so long as you're commenting: Could you please explain how the 'crime' of tagging merits the death sentence? Or why people should be allowed to take it upon themselves to mete out such an extreme punishment for such a petty misdemeanour?

Can you hear the howling
It goes without saying that if you don't talk or think about something, you believe it would become a distant memory then eventually it will fade away forever. However it doesn't because it had happened, and somewhere it still exists. Whether it is within yourself or craved into a forest tree, or evaporated into the atmosphere with parts of your soul it lives on and somewhere along the line you will hear it howling when you least want it or expect it too.

Maybe we don't even have to call it an art journal. Let's call it a collage book. an inspiration journal. a mood journal. You name it to suit your needs. I mostly just like the idea of my collection of paper-like things to have a home rather than making me look like a nut that hoards receipts and business cards and chopstick wrappers.
As much as I like to collect sketch books and art supplies, I'm not much of an artist. I've not technically trained in any sense but I enjoy looking at art and thinking about art. In middle school I thought I could be an artist by drawing in manga style. Then I got over that and meddled without too much in depth and effort with a few other art projects. Then I gave up on that and started some collage work which I've done very sparingly since. But whenever I feel like I want to create something without too much pressure, I'll start a collage.
I have multiple shoeboxes in which I like to collect my collage-worthy materials. Almost anything can be collage worthy. It's really a hobby that allows you to trust and develop your instinct. Pay attention to what kind of visuals your eye is attracted to. Some things you'd normally get rid of in order to "clean house" could find a home if you're particularly attached.
some things I like to use: greeting cards relatives have sent you, old receipts from stores you really enjoyed (write about your experience next to them), chopstick wrappers, takeout menus, pictures from magazines, tickets from movies or concerts, old photos, book marks from junk mail, parts of cool packaging, pieces of ribbon or beads, things you cut out from the paper, notes someone has scrawled.
At flea markets I sometimes buy: old photos, old paper brochures, vintage stationary, old envelopes, pages ripped from books, other people's postcards, old matchbooks, vintage wrapping paper,etc.
I really encourage you to use things that speak to you, or perhaps have a story that is unknown to you. As you collage more, you'll develop a style. Maybe try some new things.
Of course, maybe you'd like a reason for doing something like this. I often wonder why artists are motivated to make art. For me, collaging is a bit meditative , like the moving around of things and the cutting and pasting is a good activity of different motions. It feels good to do things, even if they're tiny. The whole design is in your control. You choose what to put on the page and rearrange until you feel good about it. It's a page of stories. You can remember where you got each item or why it interested you. A book like this can also serve as a reminder of who you are, or your style. When I open mine I feel comforted by its solidness.
Below are some examples of collage pages I have made. The first journal is one I put together in high school. The second I made and bound in high school, but filled the pages early on in college.
My interest in creating one's own books or tiny journals really started in high school art when I created and bounded the sketch book below. I'm just beginning to look into the art of handmade books, creating pamphlets, and developing my knowledge of zines.
Do you do any journaling/collaging/arting? Let me know in the comments. I'd love to hear about it or see it.
Thanks for visiting,

Today we were ready to go at 9h00am sharp, we had a list of stuff to do and wanted all done today! We left to go to Jean Coutu in Embrun to pick up some baby food, cereals, diaper genie refills and Sebas meds! Then we headed to the west end (Merivale) to exchange my nursing pants because they were too small, I got in and scared the shit out of the owner, he was vaccuuming upstairs it was really funny! Then we dropped off Sebas meds, we had to leave it at the door cause the door was locked, boy did Josh cry, he couldn't see his uncle and it was the END OF THE WORLD let me tell you!
We went to pick up Roch's birthday gift in Orleans, a work bench for his garage, we almost had to leave the kids in Orleans because it would fit in the van, don't worry we kept the kids and the work bench did fit!!! We went to eat at Subway and went to a park right beside a highschool in Orleans, gorgeous place, my mother-in-law had told me about it and it's a must see! It was on the news not too long ago, it was made accessible for wheelchairs and for handicap kids, it's beautiful, you really have to try it, we will be going back for sure! Then we headed to Long Sault to give Roch's gift, the kids fell asleep on the way there so we got to see the new additions to Roch's new house, very nice!
At around 5h00pm we got back home to have a nice bbq and then Josh saw his new "toy"...Noah's bubble bounce, it's a big inflatable Fire Truck!!! It was really exciting, he loves to jump, I think he bounced in it by himself for one hour straight!!! Then we went for a walk, Josh saw "his sister" Mikela #2and played with her in her playhouse while Coralie a younger little girl was kissing Sydney and then we got back home and they were pooped! I forgot my camera so I have no pics for you today, maybe tomorrow! Have a good night!

Tomorrow's Thanksgiving, which means 2 things. Everyone delves into a spirit of thankfulness and eats tons of food. So what do I have for you today? Something to match both of those factors, of course! It's called a worship workout.
What in the world is that?
Well it's pretty simple. Many of us like to use music when we work out, because it's a great extrinsic motivator. For the most part, many of us prefer to use upbeat music that has a faster tempo and encourages us to keep going. It's great for running, nearly essential for spinning, helpful when weight training, and versatile in all workout settings (except swimming unfortunately).
A couple years ago, I was doing an internal debate with myself about how much a waste of time working out was when I had such a busy schedule. I wanted to go workout and my body needed it, but I simply had so much on my plate I just wasn't sure if it was worth it. Eventually I decided that I was getting so stressed, that I decided to go for a 3 mile run and listen to worship music while doing so.
Listening to the upbeat music and peaceful lyrics, just so happened to be exactly what my body and soul needed. By the end of the run I was rejuvenated and much more equipped to tackle my to-do list. But I also noticed that I actually completed the workout more thoroughly than I thought I would have.
So very often I have started combining my prayer and daily worship along with my workout time. The thing about working out is that it's the one time of the day when you can focus on yourself and whatever is on your mind. If prayer and worship is something that's important to you, then it's a great combo.
To those of you who may think that this seems a little odd, think about it like this: when people lift their hands and dance in services at church, it's an expression of worship. And if you're of those people who do that then you understand that its fueled by the passion in the worship. But in this day and age very often the only time and place we worship like that is at church. But if you use your workout as a time of worship, 1) your workout suddenly becomes more meaningful, 2) the passion in the worship can fuel your workout, 3)suddenly working out has become another form becoming prostrate before the Lord.
Now, sometimes I totally understand that worship music is hard to stay motivated to. But a few months ago I did some searching and really found some great songs for particular types of working out. Here are some examples:
For running, HIITs, Spinning, Elliptical, and other cardio I love some Hillsong Young and Free. So that playlist for me looks like this:
1. Awaken Me- Jesus Culture
2. With Everything- Hillsong United White Album
3. Chasing You- Bethel
4. Basically the whole Young and Free Album but particularly: Alive, Brighter, and Wake
5. From The Day- I Am They
For weighted workouts, anything with a good even tempo is awesome:
1. Start a Fire- Unspoken
2. God's Great Dancefloor- Chris Tomlin (I'm not a big fan of Chris Tomlin, but it's a good song)
3. Back To Life- Young and Free
4. Nothing But The Blood- Jesus Culture (a little slower, but great for heavier weights when you're really focusing on pushing through)
5. Always Been About You- Fellowship Creative
For stretching and strengthening like yoga or pilates:
1. Carry My Soul- Phil Wickham
2. Morning Song- Steffany Gretzinger
3. One Thirst- Bethel
4. Thirst- Phil Wickham
So there's just a few songs for each type of workout. I still mix in a few other songs with those by people like Ellie Goulding, Avicii, Zedd, M83, and whatever else is upbeat but has nice words.
The thing is a lot of workout music can be angry, and while it may help pump the adrenaline, I think it's much more sustainable to run on worship adrenaline. If you try it and hate it, don't sweat it. It's something that helps me personally, but took a little while to get used to. Some of those songs just make me want to dance so I use that and turn it into my workout. If you're worried about looking silly, don't.
Very often it looks the same as any other workout. You don't have to sing or pray along out loud. But I will admit, mouthing the words to the songs not only helps me stay focused on the worship part of it, but it also helps me pace the in and out of my breathing in any and all types of work outs. People may be like "um, what is she saying?" but I'm performing for an audience of One so who cares?
One more benefit, (mostly this is for girls), is that when I'm in the weight room and feel slightly insecure around all the muscley, sometimes judgmental guys, the worship music helps me remember that in Jesus' eyes I am perfect and I am maintaining the temple He has given for Him, not everyone else. Suddenly I have a much greater confidence than I did before.
So in the spirit of Thanksgiving, give a worship work out a shot! You can give thanks to the One who Provides and work off all the calories from that delicious feast you eat.
Happy Thanksgiving!

I love cities. I always have. Ever since I was a little girl, I remember wanting to go to the big park 12 kilometres away and not stay in our town. Being lucky enough, my mother would take me there. We fed the ducks and we ate ice cream – I got to go down the big slide! Way to make a child happy.
When I got older, I ventured to "my city" all the time. At the age of 13 I would cycle about 25 kilometres, several times a week, just to be there. To be surrounded by the concrete. The cars and the people and the buildings, the shops and the cafés. I was a bit of a hippie (not that it has really changed…) and refused to wear shoes. I walked around the city, by the sea and through the park with my bare feet, happy as ever.
As I kept growing I would always find a way to situate myself into a city environment. The town I come from is not exactly a tiny town, having a population of about 16,000 people, but it does seem quite small. As someone who was born and raised there, I just kept craving for something more. I would daydream about my dream apartment somewhere central – an adorable, not-too-big, lovely home for me and only for me. A jugend building, wide window sills, high ceilings. At first it was my city, then the dreams shifted to Helsinki.
I got to go to the high school I always wanted to attend. It was in my city and it was all about music. One of my best friends lived near to the school and I had the chance to stay at theirs a lot. Some of the best time of my life. They shared my love for Helsinki, we dreamt together.
Like you would expect, life threw me around and I ended up in a city I never thought I would. Close to Helsinki but not close enough. I found a way of living life and for a couple of years, it was comfortable. Then, after various jobs and some studying, I ended up in England.
England has been my home for just over a year now. A lot has changed in a year. I have changed as a person but my love for cities is still there. No matter the season, I feel most at home with the sounds of cars and people behind my window and lights from the street projected on my walls.
I love the lights – not only because they're pretty but because they make me feel not alone.
Today, I'm content. Our home is cosy and it's ours. As we know from life already lived, nothing is certain. You will be thrown around and plans will change.
For now, I'll be concentrating on finding the next city to conquer.

Mr. Rodgers is a great guy. From everything I have heard and seen about him and from him he is a great person and an astounding role model for any child, whether they aspire to be an NFL quarterback or not. He is also one of the best passers in the NFL today, and quite possibly ever. I have no problems with him as a person, and my questioning of "12/12/12" has nothing to do with who he is or what he represents. I do have somewhat of an issue with the government in Wisconsin for passing this through and declaring an "Aaron Rodgers Day". Would this have happened if his jersey number was 3? Or 16? I guarantee it wouldn't. It just so happens that his number is 12, and he is playing amazing recently, and it is the year 2012. If you think about it that is a lot of circumstances that are lined up for him. This started as a Facebook thing and should have stayed that way. I am disappointed in the legislation in Wisconsin. It only goes to show me more that the people from that state, more particularly the Packers fans, are nuts.

Skip to comments.Obama Sides With Banks Accused of Racism
Posted on 04/17/2009 1:50:46 PM PDT by Lorianne
The administration defends lenders that allegedly bilked minority customers. What gives? ___ A number of big national banks stand accused of systematically bilking black and Latino borrowers. And the administration of our first black president is siding with the banks.
At the end of April, the Obama administration will go before the US Supreme Court to argue that those banksincluding bailout recipients Bank of America, Citi, Wells Fargo, and JPMorgan Chaseshould be allowed to duck a state investigation into their lending practices. If that sounds like the politics of the past, it is. The Obama administration has opted to maintain the stance of the Bush administrationone opposed by the NAACP and other major civil rights groups. And it won't be some Bush holdover making the arguments in Cuomo v. The Clearing House Association (an industry group whose membership includes the world's largest banks). Instead, the banks will be defended by the office of Obama's new solicitor general, former Harvard Law School dean Elena Kagan, whom some conservatives have branded a "radical leftist" because of her record opposing military recruitment on college campuses.
(Excerpt) Read more at motherjones.com ...
When Mother Jones calls him down, that's something XD
Soo prize, soo prize.
Naw, they know Ocommie is their man.
The fact is this administration wants NO investigation into banks' lending practices to minorities, for we would then know the reason for the financial collapse and who caused it.
Poor ol' Mother Jones. Still doe$n't realize what liberali$m i$ all about.
Revolving Door, Bailout Edition
Chris Dodds Personal Bailout
How much longer can Obama hide the fact that lefties under several different presidents encouraged banks to actually single out distressed minorities to get overly generous (and overly risky) home loans? Then when the risk kicks in, guess who gets left holding the bag.
Mother Jones must have a huge readership. This article was published April, 7. I just posted the 23rd comment.
Lemme guess: "bilking" means they wouldn't give them a whole bunch of money the banks knew they couldn't pay back.
I'd think: more like granted them ARMs with low teaser rates that let the principal grow instead of shrink.
Obama could walk up to one of his useful idiots, kick him in the jewels and tell him he lied and won't do crap for him. The idiot will turn and say, Obama gonna pay my mortgage.
These people don't have a clue.
I'm getting tired of this.
He isn't our first black president. He's our 44th white president.
If he's half white from a white mother and half black from a black father, he can't hardly be a black president now, can he?
Remember the one-drop rule.
Going by that standard, he's about as black as all get out.

The intermediate dollar cycle peaked back in December on week 14. It has been in decline ever since.
This is week 31 for the intermediate dollar cycle. This places the dollar deep in its timing band to print an intermediate cycle low. A weekly swing low is required to mark the intermediate cycle low. A break above 96.42 forms a weekly swing low.
The dollar printed a lower low today. While today may have been day 9,
there are 2 reasons why I suspect an extended daily cycle with today being day 34.
1) The bullish TSI divergence indicates a possible bullish surprise for the dollar.
2) The lower low has extended the intermediate cycle out to week 31. A day 9 count would mean that the dollar would need another 2 – 4 more weeks before a daily cycle low forms, thus extending out the intermediate cycle to weeks 33 – 35, a low probability scenario.
Which makes a day 34 count more likely. A break above 95.01 will form a daily cycle low and quite likely indicate that the intermediate cycle low has formed as well.
Meanwhile stocks did form a swing high today.
Thursday was day 33 for the daily equity cycle. Which places stocks in their timing band to print a daily cycle low. A loss of the 10 day MA at this point should indicate that stocks have begun their decline into a daily cycle low. A peak on day 32 assures us of a right translated cycle formation. Stocks have been in a daily uptrend. They will remain in a daily uptrend if the daily cycle low forms above the lower daily cycle band.

All Grown Up
Tonight Kip & Co launched their AW14 – All Grown Up Collection in Sydney. These girls may be all grown up, but their collection is as fun, youthful and cheery as ever!
Think bright patterns, playful scribbles and rich colours coupled with lush velvet, tassels and pom poms. Yep, it was all that! The collaboration between Kip & Co and Desert Designs, the Japingka design, is a real stand out in the collection with its abstract pattern and bright contrasting colour palette.
A couple of my favourites from the collection are the shag rug (LOVE!), velvet beanbags and tassel cushion covers… and I think that pizza quilt is just too much fun! Classic Kip & Co!
Kip & Co Designers – Hayley Pannekoecke, Kate Heppell and Alex van der Sluys.

My last venture into streaming anime didn't go so well, when the underwhelming Un-Go left me questioning how much anime was out there for someone like me. By that I mean: a picky anime fan who needs a certain degree of ambition or poignancy for a show to hook me. Several I've seen over the last year or two have had the right ingredients but never cohered. They felt lazy. While I was initially thrilled by the numerous legal streaming options available locally through Madman and Siren, the reality was that very little of it appealed to me.
But watching the first episode of Kids on the Slope on Crunchyroll has invigorated my optimism about the medium, particularly because I had no idea that the site could make so many major shows available outside of the US. It's quite the goldmine.
Crunchyroll has been an institution for anime fans since it was founded in 2006 by a bunch of undergraduate students, initially using illegally fansubbed content. Now 100% legal, it streams subtitled episodes of a variety of shows within hours of their Japanese broadcast, either freely with advertisements or ad-free and in HD for paying subscribers. For US fans frustrated by the months or years that can elapse between broadcast and DVD release who can handle subtitles, Crunchyroll has been a godsend.
But for much of that time licensing restrictions required it to geolock its streaming shows to the US. I knew that a select few were available overseas, but I'd been focused on Madman and Siren's local streaming and never looked into it. Not much from those companies grabs me at the moment, so after checking out the latest installment of Anime News Network's terrific review column, The Stream, I investigated whether the shows garnering rave reviews that piqued my interest might actually be available to me.
My top priority was Kids on the Slope, which reunites director Shinichiro Watanabe with composer and music supervisor Yoko Kanno following their collaboration on the terribly cool Cowboy Bebop. Kanno is perhaps the leading anime composer. Her scores are incredibly versatile and engaging; she's as adept with jazz and blues as with classical composition. Watanabe blends genres too: Cowboy Bebop mixed SF and noir with jazz and Samurai Champloo enlivened an anime fixture with hip-hop. Together, the two do amazing work. (Also check out their beautiful collaboration on Macross Plus, which has a soundtrack I can't listen to often enough.)
So after getting psyched to learn about this show, whose existence I was unaware of, I was chuffed to discover that it and many other shows can be watched in Australia! Yeeaaaah!!
And what a delightful first episode it was. I was so struck by its quality that I had to write about it straight away, even though I probably should have watched more first in order to write a proper review.
After the action and bombast of his previous shows, Watanabe has done a 180 and now applies a musical spin to a vastly different genre: the slice-of-life period drama. Kids on the Slope only resembles his previous work in its sheer skill and attention to detail. There's can be a unique and ineffable charm to real-world anime drama, and Watanabe nails it.
Set in 1966, it follows Kaoru, a teenager who moves from the city to the country and promptly becomes an outcast at school. A piano player, he stumbles into a friendship with Sentaro, an underachiever who loves jazz, and Ritsuko, an old friend of Sentaro's who becomes convinced the pair should jam together.
The premise is pleasantly simple, which doesn't matter because Kids on the Slope is more concerned with the texture of these characters and their world. It's beautifully observed, and I laughed out loud at several sweet moments, which is rare for me since anime humour typically tries too damn hard. The characters are already endearing, particularly the oafish but passionate Sentaro. The serenity the show generates is intoxicating and reminiscent of the slice-of-life Ghibli films, and I cannot wait to see more.
And that's just the tip of the Crunchyroll iceberg. Several of the well-reviewed shows in The Stream– which sound far more compelling than the latest superpowered teenaged girl bollocks–are also available outside of the US. The quality of even the free standard-definition stream is solid, so you could be entertained for days wading through all of this. Kudos to Crunchyroll for negotiating such excellent licensing deals that benefit anime fans around the world. I'll be sure to review Kids on the Slope more substantially after a few more episodes.
Here are direct links to some of the intriguing new shows available in Australia through Crunchyroll:
Space Brothers – comedy-drama about two brothers trying to become astronauts.
Tsuritama – slice-of-life drama about a lonely kid who bonds with another (who claims to be an alien) over fishing. I don't know why, but this sounds delightful.
Chihayafuru – sweet drama about a high school karuta (Japanese card game) team. That premise normally wouldn't grab me, but it's had adoring reviews.

This year I decided to try out some preschool home school with our girls. They go to preschool two days a week, but with as much as they love to learn and with as active as they are, I've found having some planned learning activities really helps to fill our day and give us some direction. There are so many amazing blogs and websites with ideas! One of my favorites is Confessions of a Homeschooler
We've been doing a letter each week, and this week was "F".
So, we made fish with "F"s for the fin.
Then we went on a walk and chose a good rock.
Then the girls put their fish and rock in a tupperware full of water-- their own fish bowls...
The girls loved it. No fish was belly-up by morning. It was a hit...
We also made a sticker collage using flag stickers, flower stickers, fish stickers, and letter "F's". Stickers are so fun for the girls and peeling off the paper is actually really good for their fine motor skills.
We also began an ABC journal where Kate and Kylie relay a story for me and I write down verbatim what they say. Here's a glimpse into their story about the letter "F":
We made "f" for fins on our fishes with googley eyes. Then we found rocks and mommy took pictures of our rocks. Then the fins fell off and mommy had to keep putting them on over and over and over. We have our own fish tanks. They are mean fish and they bite us. We told them to not be mean so they'll be nice to people and friendly. And they know how to bite elbows and they hurt so people had to put them in tanks. I love watermelon, that's a fruit, which also starts with "f".
Anyone have any creative ideas for G?
