Talitha J. Arnold, M.Div.
Senior Minister
United Church of Santa Fe
Rev. Talitha Arnold was called as the Pastor of the United Church of Santa Fe (in Santa Fe, New Mexico)
in 1987 when the church was a 7-year-old new church start of the United Church of Christ. Since then the church
has grown from 90 to over 300 members, paid off a half-million dollar debt, done three building expansions, and
is known in Santa Fe for its education, outreach, worship, and music.
A native of Arizona, Rev. Arnold graduated cum laude from Pomona College with her B.A. in Religion and
Government in 1975. After receiving her Masters of Divinity from Yale Divinity School in 1980, she served as
Interim Associate University Chaplain for Yale for one year, followed by a six-year tenure at First Church of Christ
(UCC) in Middletown, CT as an Associate Minister. While an Associate Minister, she co-led the resettlement of
over 100 Cambodian refugees in Middletown in an interfaith program that served as the model for resettlement
work throughout New England.
Rev. Arnold has been President of Santa Fe Habitat for Humanity and the Ministerial Alliance, served on
the city's first Youth Commission, and been recognized for her human rights work in the city and state. She also
helped start a "sister church" relationship with a Roman Catholic parish as well as Muslim-Christian and Jewish
Christian dialogues in Santa Fe. She currently serves on the Bioethics Committee for Christus St. Vincent's
Hospital and is active with the Santa Fe Council on International Relations. Her congregation has hosted
journalists, political leaders, and religious leaders from countries as diverse as Russia and the Ivory Coast.
She also serves on the Alumni Board for Yale Divinity School, and this fall organized Women's Reunion
Celebration of "8 Decades of Women at YDS."
The United Church of Santa Fe was awarded the "Arthur Tappan Award" by the United Church of Christ
for its witness as a multicultural and just peace church. Rev. Arnold was also been the recipient of a Lilly Fund
Pastoral Renewal grant to study in Italy in 2003 and a Louisville Institute fellowship in 2000 for a sabbatical
focused on desert spirituality. In 1996, she was honored by Yale Divinity School as Outstanding Recent Alum, and
in 2007 was honored as Outstanding Clergy Woman in the United Church of Christ with the "Antoinette Brown
Award." In 2010, she was recognized as one of "Ten Who Make a Difference" by the Santa Fe New Mexican
She writes regularly for the Santa Fe New Mexican and has also had articles published in The Christian
Century and aired on National Public Radio. She recently wrote Worship for Vital Congregations, published by
Pilgrim Press, and has essays in the Feasting on the Word series, published by Westminster John Knox. She
enjoys hiking, singing, reading, and travelling.

On 'Million Second Quiz,' players could win millions
Many game shows are a half-hour. Some might extend to an hour. But just how long is the new NBC show, "The Million Second Quiz"? A million seconds, sure, but what does that translate to in days and hours?
TODAY's Savannah Guthrie met up with show host Ryan Seacrest at the set of the new program, and she had done the math.
"So, this is kind of your home for the next, what, 11 days, 13 hours, 46 minutes, and 40 seconds?" Guthrie asked Seacrest.
"Oh, really well-studied, Savannah," retorted Seacrest.
She knew that fact, but how would Guthrie do on the show itself? She first checked out the five-story hourglass-shaped set, which includes pods where the contestants sleep while being watched by cameras.
"I don't know how much sleep you're gonna get," said Seacrest. "You're in a fishbowl here."
The new program lets contestants win $10 a second for answering trivia questions and is played 24 hours a day (though just an hour per day is aired). Guthrie didn't make that kind of time commitment, but she did take a seat in the "Money Chair" and took a shot at a few questions.
Guthrie knew what board game was banned in Cuba (Monopoly) and could identify three given phrases as names of Girl Scout cookies. But she flubbed another question, not knowing that the item Australians call "fairy floss" is what we call "cotton candy."
"Let's say you won the bout," said Seacrest generously. "Then you go on to face your next challenger. We'll be right back. And you keep making money."
Contestants who can't compete in person can try the game on a smart phone app. And if they shine on the app, it may turn into a ticket to fame and fortune — and a visit to New York.
"You can compete by playing on the app; (if) they get a certain number of points, they're eligible (to appear on the show)," Seacrest said. "And each night, we're going to be at someone's house to bring them to New York City the next day for the show."
"Million Second Quiz" premieres Sept. 9 on NBC at 8 p.m.

From the showroom to the speedway, the Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge is IMSA's showcase for the latest in American-made and imported high performance sports cars, coupes and sedans straight from the dealer showroom floor. With modifications permitted only in the area of safety and competition, the Continental Tire Challenge is home to the same cars seen on streets and highways around the world every day. Racing takes place in two classes, Grand Sport (GS) and Street Tuner (ST), with the series running a 10-race schedule in tandem with the WeatherTech Championship.
The Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge features sports cars from manufacturers worldwide, straight from the showroom floor, racing side-by-side with only minor modifications. The two classes competing simultaneously on track are Grand Sport (GS) and Street Tuner (ST).
Grand Sport (GS) - As with all Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge cars, GS class cars start out as stock, production model cars that race with minor modifications only. The GS class contains the top performing cars and include the Aston Martin Vantage, BMW M3, Chevy Camaro GS.R, Ford Shelby GT350R-C, Ford Mustang Boss 302 R, Nissan 370Z, Porsche 911 and Subaru WRX-STI. The engines are tuned to produce between 400 and 500 horsepower and are capable of speeds in excess of 175 mph.
Street Tuner (ST) - The ST class is also production based with much of the car using the same stock parts you would find on your passenger car. This class is limited to four- and six-cylinder and rotary engines. The ST class includes the Audi S3, BMW 128 and 325, Honda Civic Si, Hyundai Genesis, Mazda MX-5, Nissan Altima and Porsche Boxster and Cayman. The engines are tuned to produce between 220 and 280 horsepower and are capable of speeds in excess of 150 mph.

"As the uncaring gods warred in Heaven, the Moon was cracked and flung to the Earth. A great upheaval followed as the shards of the moon struck the cities of dwarves, rent the nations of elves and drowned the kingdoms of men. All that had been built was shattered. All that had been gathered was scattered.
Today, the world knows nothing of the Fallen Moon, the skies are empty save for distant stars. The oceans are shallow and the tides sweep the land. Yet dwarves, elves, men and tieflings prevail. But some, those born with seething sorcerous blood, look up to the sky, at the poisonous pale green moon glaring down on them. Ever full, never half, an accusing eye directed at their sins of wizardry and chaos."
- From the Book of the Pale Moon, written in the 2nd century of the Era of the Leaden Dawn by the magic-user Aglemore the Lunatic
Note: The Book of the Pale Moon is a grimoire containing the magic-user spells: summoning, force of forbidment, howl of the moon, strange waters II, seven gates, contact outer sphere, weird vortex and witchlamp aura.
Once per day, the owner of the book may cast any one of the spells contained in the book as a magic-user of his level. After casting the spell, he must make a saving throw vs magic at a penalty. The penalty is the difference between his current level and the minimum level required to cast the spell (if he is of higher level, this can become a bonus). If he fails the save, he will dream poisonous dreams of a pale moon. He will thrash and howl in his sleep and cannot be woken until dawn. Such a sleep is not restful at all. A magic-user or tiefling will not be able to prepare spells, and all his rolls on that day will be at a -2 penalty.
The spells in the grimoire can be studied and copied normally. This will not having any ill effect.

If you're anything like me, your to-do list might look something like:
- call 100 prospects
- schedule 50 demos
- send 100 follow up emails
- generate 200 new prospects
... and so on.
So, when my boss mentioned I should read the book he just bought, it sort of went in one ear and out the other.
My top priority is to hit my quota, so reading a sales book just didn't seem worthwhile. I went on with my days forgetting about this book, until I learned that one of my co-workers read the book and it was actually helping him hit his quota faster.
By not reading the book, I knew I was letting my boss down, but what I didn't realize is that I was also missing out on valuable sales insights. Like the story of how Aaron Ross transformed the Salesforce.com sales team without any traditional cold calling and scaled the business into a $100 million sales machine. Or the enlightening findings from one of the largest studies ever done in sales.
Determined to see the same results as my co-worker, I dedicated 10 hours to read the sales book my boss recommended and two other books I heard had proven results:
- SNAP Selling by Jill Konrath
- Predictable Revenue by Aaron Ross
- The Challenger Sale by Brent Adamson and Matthew Dixon
It took me 10 hours to read these books, but it turns out the 740 pages can be summarized into three 15-page sections.
To save you time I created a summary of these three top sales books, which include:
- Three lists of key terms every reader should know
- Shareable quotes to strut your sales smarts
- Three actionable frameworks to try
Not only did reading these three books impress my boss, but I started hitting my quota quicker. I hope this summary brings you the same -- if not better -- results.

Where it happened: My house
Langauge: English
Sex: Female
Rating: 8
Category: Straight
Ok, so at first this might seem a bit gross for some people, but other may find it very erotic. My first time was defiantly not your traditional one; it was with the family dog (see, it told you some might
find it gross). I was 15 at the time, and had often wondered what sex was like. So anyway, one day I got in the shower and was feeling a little horny, so I rubbed myself a bit and used the showerhead on
myself. I didn't quite orgasm. When i got out of the shower, I wrapped the towel around myself and went downstairs. My parents were out at the time. I went over to the coffee table, but knocked something
off and it rolled under the sofa. I knelt down on all fours to pick it up (you can see where this is going…) and the towel slipped off. I didn't think anything of it, being the only one home. Then I felt
Max's (that's the dog) wet nose sniffing at my still slightly moist pussy. Then, without warning and before I had time to react, the Great Dane mounted me! His large K9 cock rammed straight into me,
popping my cherry very painfully as the started to thrust like crazy. I bled quite a lot, but that didn't bother Max. I tried to push him off, but a petite teen girl doesn't stand much of a chance against
a fully grown Great Dane. When he had finished, he jumped off me and just trotted away, But towards the end it had started to feel really good, and I wanted more of that! Luckily most of the blood had gone
on the towel, so I picked that up and followed the dog out into the back yard, where he was laying on the grass. I knelt down in front of him and patted my butt and back, saying " Comon Max! Up here that's
a god boy!", and to my surprise he mounted me again, and started banging away. This time I went to heaven! I was absolute ecstasy! After two minutes or so, i cum and had the most massive of orgasms, and a
few seconds later Max let his juices rip up inside of me. It felt so good, I thought I'd cum again. He got off and went back inside the house. I felt his hot K9 cum leaking out of my cunt, and then looked
up and notice my 17 year old neighbours son staring at me over the fence. THAT was soooooooooo embarrassing, but I didn't care at the time; I just gave him a cheery little wave and went back inside to find
my Mum and Dad also staring out through the patio doors. I went so red you could have used me as a BBQ! I asked them how long they'd been there and Mum said they came in as I went out the back. They saw
the whole thing! And to make matters worse, I was still naked, and Max decided to mount me again. As I was still standing, this knocked me to the floor, and he entered me again! It felt so good still.
Mum and Dad stood there for a second before trying, futily, to drag him off me. They seriously could not move him, so I had to wait until he was finished. I cum again (mega embarrassing as they were still
watching), so did he, so he jumped off. I then got a huge lecture from my parents, and the following day Mum bought me a dildo and a vibrator, and said I was to use them and not the dog. Ever since then,
Max has tried to mount me nearly every chance he gets, and when no ones around, I let him! So that's my very irregular first time. Hoped you enjoyed it and didn't get to grossed out!;-)

Extended Profile
I'm trying to push my envelope, technically-speaking. This is a watercolor I did many Fridays ago -- July 1, 2005 -- at a garden up in Holualoa. Unfortunately, the size requirements for allowable images make this look awfully funky. Oh, well. Basically,
it's a grassy path with monstera on the left and a big coffee bush on the right. (But who can tell with this cryptic allowable size transfiguration!)
Sometimes I am compelled to quote an excerpt that evokes the spirit of the book. Or, I guess you could say, one that reminds me of what exactly it was I read!
As of June 2011, I have relocated from Puako, on the Big Island of Hawai`i to Ziegelhausen, a neighborhood of Heidelberg, on the banks of the Fluss Neckar. Gosh, I need to learn to speak German!
As of November 2014, I have now relocated to "the old pueblo," Tucson, Arizona. Time to learn to appreciate desert.
And now, as of January 2016, back to Puako.

Stress of college norms can put first-generation students at academic disadvantage, Kellogg professor finds
"Given ... the ways in which students' social class backgrounds shape their motives for attending college, we questioned whether universities provide students from these different backgrounds with an equal chance of success." — Assistant Professor Nicole Stephens
The focus on independence at American universities can undermine the academic performance of first-generation college students, Assistant Professor Nicole Stephens finds
"These findings suggest that social-psychological interventions that more systematically expand the university culture so that they include ideas and practices of interdependence may go a long way toward remedying the unseen disadvantage experienced by first-generation students in American universities today," the study concludes. The study was co-authored by Stephanie A. Fryberg of the University of Arizona; Hazel Rose Markus of Stanford University; Camille S. Johnson of the School of Business at San Jose State University; and Rebecca Covarrubias of the University of Arizona. The study will appear in a forthcoming issue of Journal of Personality and Social Psychology (JPSP), a publication of the American Psychological Association.

My Depression Was the Worst It Has Ever Been During My Pregnancy
What is a time of joy for many women was my darkest hour.
I have been living with a disease called systemic lupus erythematosus (or commonly known as lupus, or SLE) for the past nine and a half years, although I'm pretty sure it has been even longer than that. You may recognize the name of the disease because of allegations that Selena Gomez suffers from it, or the fact that Lady Gaga has tested positive (without symptoms) for it.
For those of you who aren't aware of what it is, it is essentially a non-progressive (but potentially fatal) illness in which the body mistakes healthy tissue for a disease, and attacks it. In my case, it usually attacks non-vital organs, but your heart, liver or any other vital organ is vulnerable. It's characterized by periods of disease activity and remission, meaning many people live totally normal lives (although are often in pain on a regular basis) between periods of being really, really sick. Although lupus is different in every case, most people with lupus become ill more often (if the flu comes around, I'm going to get it, and sometimes twice), have joint and muscle pain, suffer from arthritis, get rashes on their body, are tired and fatigued and a host of many other pretty crappy things.
That is the extremely abbreviated explanation. If you're interested in a much better explanation about it by actual professionals, the Lupus Foundation of America will give you a run down on their FAQ page.
Having a chronic illness, especially one that is "invisible," often leads to my being under increased scrutiny. I was given the label of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome at first, a condition frequently mocked, due to its name. A roommate I had in college told me that her father was an anaesthesiologist and he didn't believe the disease was real, therefore I was making it up as an excuse to stay in bed all day. I did manage to graduate from college, and write and direct a play whilst I was "being lazy," then go on to earn two Masters degrees and am in the process of a PhD…but I digress.
With a label of Chronic Fatigue, there isn't much for people to give advice about, besides "drink more caffeine" or kindly requesting that I snap out of it. At first, I think, people thought I was depressed because I started to develop very noticeable lupus symptoms after my first boyfriend unexpectedly dumped me.
Coping with your first serious symptoms of a lifelong illness sucks. Doing so while wrapping your head around the fact that your first serious boyfriend no longer loves you and has moved on to someone else within weeks of dumping you is truly awful.
Many people with lupus are diagnosed with several illnesses before their doctor settles on SLE. I had long suspected I had SLE because my late grandfather also had it (which is actually really rare considering as it is mostly a disease of mostly women in their childbearing years). When lupus was finally written on my chart, I felt relief, that people would finally know I wasn't "faking it." I had a label and everything! The doctor gave me medicine that vastly improved, but didn't fix, my fatigue. I was prepared to get on with my life.
What I wasn't prepared for was the fact that now, with a label, would come a host of people who would indirectly tell me it was my fault for having lupus. Many times when I confided in someone about the disease, they would say, "Well, have you tried that new diet that's come out? My grandmother's postman's friend's son tried it and it cured him of his lupus!"
At first, it was things like gin-soaked raisins, certain magical berries and other things that were supposedly going to alleviate my symptoms. Some things I tried, some things I didn't. Nothing "cured" me. The thing is, none of the people telling me about these supposed cures seemed to have lupus, and not one was a medical professional.
There was even a rumor going around that Diet Coke causes lupus. Websites like this one make the idea seem legit, but if you dig a little bit, you'll see that this "doctor" has an affiliate program (where you can make money by selling his own drugs) and a diet pill that claims to help you lose weight overnight. Oh, he also has a "naturopath cure" for lupus and MS you can try. For a fee, of course.
I admit I do drink Diet Coke in excess, and it probably isn't the best thing for me, so after hearing this rumor I asked my rheumatologist (a specialist for lupus and lupus-like illnesses) about it. At the time I asked her to address the Diet Coke rumor, I was living in New York City and seeing a doctor at the Hospital for Special Surgery and a Harvard Medical School graduate. She was at the top of her game, and I loved her because she really cared about her patients.
As someone who is a leader in her field, she said she had never heard this Diet Coke theory before. It wouldn't hurt, she told me, to try and cut it out if I wanted, but she doubted it would make a difference. Besides, she reasoned, if Diet Coke consumption was really a factor, then many people she knew should have lupus.
Every so often, that rumor pops up again on Facebook and someone will forward the link to me, insinuating that if I just had the will power to stop drinking the Diet Coke, I would be cured. Currently, I live in the United Kingdom and last summer there was a Coca-Cola campaign where you could find your first name printed on a Diet Coke or Coke bottle. After proudly finding my name (seriously, it took me weeks, and Anna is a pretty common name here in the UK), I proudly posted my find on my Facebook only to have people (who neither had lupus nor a medical degree) say, "You have lupus, you shouldn't be drinking that stuff."
Recently, there has been a growing mass of people who believe wheat is the devil, and that you can cure yourself from any and all ailments by following their diet plan. One such group actually ambushed a lupus support group I was a part of when I lived in New York. They were looking to start a retreat for people with lupus, with the goal of weaning them off of their medication, and we were their sales target. One of the "founders" was very frustrated that her sister with lupus wouldn't try this plant-based diet she had invented and that she knew would cure her.
She also claimed plants could cure cancer, but "Big Pharma" was stopping that from "getting out." (I could write a whole other article on "Big Pharma," but I'll just state for the record that I don't believe there is a worldwide conspiracy to keep people on unnecessary drugs.)
"Don't you want to live your life without medication?" the woman asked us, as though the group of us had any choice. I knew for some people in that room, that medication was keeping their hearts or kidneys from being attacked from within.
These two women went on to say that lupus seems like it is a new illness because you "never heard of people being so weak in the old days" and therefore must be attributed to our modern dietary habits. I know this line of reasoning is really popular, but as a historian (I hold an MA in History and am working on a PhD in History), I don't get this glorification of the past and their diet. Yeah, you kind of don't hear about weak people all that often because they mostly died. 150 years ago, I would totally be dead with one of the more serious kidney infections I've had (if I hadn't already died from the flu or some other childhood illness like scarlet fever or the measles or any other host of diseases that people rarely get due to modern medicine).
So-called "weak" people now have access to modern medicine that allows them to live through childhood diseases, the flu, infections and so forth. Plus, this argument totally ignores historical evidence that there were people who were genuinely sickly, such as Louisa May Alcott. Some modern day medical historians believe she suffered from lupus SLE due to the symptoms described in her diary. Also, lupus was difficult to recognize back in the day without modern blood work (in 2014, it's still not a cake walk for doctors to diagnose), so it only seems logical that a lot of people had it without every really having a label for it.
Another friend of mine heavily advocated I try the paleo diet because it cured him of his anxiety and acne (which apparently is the same as lupus). He was so adamant about it that he even accused me of wanting to have lupus because I didn't want to try the diet and he (again without a medical degree or scientific data) knew it would cure me. I did look into the diet and it seemed unsustainable for me, as I'm not a big meat eater. This person then told me I wanted to "quit when things got difficult."
Therefore, having lupus is pretty much my own fault.
I'm not knocking diets like gluten-free or paleo or whatever. If people actually feel better by following one of these diets, then that is their choice, and I'm really glad they've found something that works for them. I've tried some of them as well. I went gluten-free for a month, and ended up feeling more tired than usual (I was told by the paleo/gluten free evangelists that I was doing it wrong, or that it was my body detoxing from all the poison I had poured in it). I tried going vegan, but it seemed very difficult to get a good amount of protein, not to mention it made it nearly impossible to eat out.
The thing is, I've never heard of anyone with lupus claiming to have been cured by any of these diets. People will say that certain things help them, but I've never run across anyone going completely medication-free as a result of changing what they eat. Generally, I find that I feel better when I am able to exercise (although it is not always possible due to the way my joints feel), eat healthier (in the traditional sense, not in the crazy diet sense) and get in more protein. I feel stronger with exercise and plenty of fruits and veggies, even if I don't always stick to it.
But that's my own personal choice. Learning to listen to my body and rest when I need to has also played a huge role in making me a more productive person. If you feel better standing on your head every morning and putting gin soaked raisins in your paleo-friendly bread, then more power to you. It's a scary thing to admit, but humans can't always control everything about our own bodies. And we aren't always masters of our own fates.

From Scarsdale, New York, USA:
I have an 11 year old son with diabetes. Lately, when he has low blood sugars, he refuses to eat, and says he is not hungry. I have to go through a litany of foods to stimulate his interest. Of course, candy always works, but frequently we end up with a high blood sugar after this. Is there a minimum amount of sugar that will raise his blood sugar a given amount? Any suggestions?
You don't say how long your son has had diabetes but the problem you describe is common. If it's only an issue when he's hypo then don't worry if you have to give him candy. Generally about 20 grams of carbohydrate (as fast acting sugars) is enough to do the trick; then you can fortify this with something starchy when he feels better. You may find that he'll take liquid better than solids when he's low. In the UK, the standard therapy is Lucozade but I don't know if you have this in the States.
[Editor's comment: For my daughter Marissa, we have never used candy to treat hypoglycemia. From the beginning, we used glucose tablets or cake frosting in a tube. Our goal was to separate the medical treatment of hypoglycemia from desirable foods, such as candy. I always recommend that parents treat low blood sugars with glucose tablets or gel just for this reason. JSH]

In 1988, museum founder Leigh Block donated a large group of bronze sculptures with an endowment for their maintenance. The works by such artists as Hans (Jean) Arp, Barbara Hepworth, Joan Miró and Henry Moore constitute the core of the Museum's Outdoor Sculpture Garden, which was designed by architect John Vinci and is situated around the Museum on Northwestern's lushly landscaped campus. Over the years, the Block has selectively added works to the Garden by artists such as Wolfgang Paalen and Bryan Hunt.
Please note that as of May 25, 2012, seven works from the Garden (Interior Form by Henry Moore, Untitled by Peter Reginato, Untitled (Ohne Titel) by Wolfgang Paalen, Armonia by Virginio Ferrari, Small Twist II by Bryan Hunt, Resting Leaf by Hans Arp, and Prism in Two Elements by Virginio Ferrari) have been relocated into storage for the duration of a construction project on the south campus of the University. Sculptures will return to view after project completion, scheduled for 2015. One additional work (Constructed Cylinder by Arnaldo Pomodoro) has been covered for its protection.
A Sculpture Garden Map (pdf) is available online and at the Museum.
Portions of the Block's sculpture collection are also on view inside the Museum, including Subjects-Objects—a monumental site-specific work by Neil Goodman that adorns the wall of the stairway—and works by Jacques Lipchitz and Miró.
In addition, the Museum is home to more than 60 sculptural works, wall hangings and weavings by the fiber artist Theo Leffmann. Gifted to the Museum by Paul Leffmann, an ongoing display of these unique works can be seen in the Theo Leffmann Gallery.

Cephalon consolidates oncology professional into Draftfcb
Cephalon has consolidated its oncology business into Interpublic Group's Draftfcb.
The franchise includes Trisenox, which was with WPP's Sudler & Hennessey, and Treanda, which was with Omnicom's LyonHeart.
It's a purely professional-facing assignment, as those brands are not currently advertised to consumers. Draftfcb, which previously handled advertising for the company's alertness drug Nuvigil, will take over the oncology business sometime this quarter, Cephalon said.

Cookie Party!
This past Sunday, while still recovering from our Lock-In exhaustion, we had our annual Cookie Party! It's a low-key little get together we have every year where folks come to visit, chat and eat a whole lot of sweets!
Everyone brings their own batch of favorite cookies, and we swap and share until everyone is stuffed. And then we send them home with more! It's always a nice way for us to slow down and appreciate the holidays. We get a little wrapped up in work, and sometimes forget to stop and smell the baked goods...
To see all the mouth-watering cookies on display, check out the flickr set!

Being the most used content management system, WordPress analyzes and brings developments in its platform. Noticing a need for revisions and alterations in the content published on WordPress sites as pages or posts, this leading CMS has inaugurated a unique feature where you can store and undo all the revisions.
It is one of the most talked-about features due to its usefulness and benefits to content writers and publishers. This is because you can undo changes or save changes by using post revisions to enhance the quality of content.
In this article, we simply discuss the definition of post revisions along with the reasons to use it followed by the procedure to undo changes.
What is Post Revisions?
Post revision is a unique feature of WordPress wherein a post has several versions or revisions stored for future reference. Revisions are stored automatically every 60 seconds while you can save your posts as drafts manually.
The revisions are stored in a proper way so that you can check its information and track the one you want to restore conveniently. Using this feature, you can make alterations to your WordPress posts without involving any risk of content loss.
Overall, it renders you the liberty to make as many changes as you want so that you can offer the best content to your viewers.
Why Should You Use Post Revisions?
You upload a well-written content to your website after proofreading with the help of some grammar check tools. But, the fact is inevitable that impressive content demands alterations and re-writing on multiple occasions. Therefore, you may need to alternate changes on your posts when you spot them. WordPress post revisions render you a bird's eye view of your post where you can see the modifications made.
Adding to it, you get the option to access the editorial platform and select the best revision from the list of revisions made till date. This gives you the opportunity to undo the changes made if you feel that the previous version of a post is better than its current version.
How to Use Post Revisions to Undo Changes?
Using post revisions for reverting back some changes is quite simple. You need to follow an easy procedure which involves the implementation of some steps on your WordPress site. If you have a fair knowledge, you can execute the steps to undo changes using post revisions without involving the need for a developer's helping hand. That being said, let's check out the steps involved in using post revisions to revert alterations.
The first method for viewing your revisions is by navigating to the meta box. The meta box of the post is located on the edit section of the specific post. In the meta box, you can find a "Browse" option beside the Revision tab. You need to click on this link for visiting the post revision screen.
In the alternative method, you can reach the post revisions section by checking the "Revisions" option available in the Screen Options menu.
Once you are in the post revisions section, you can see all the latest revision of a particular post along with a scrollbar. You can use the scrollbar to check all the revisions of the post. You can easily identify the changes made in every post as the alterations are highlighted in pink and green colors. Also, you can see the basic information about the post such as the time and date of revisions.
You should go through all the alterations made to a post and make sure which one of the available revisions is the most appropriate. Once done, you can restore the revision by clicking on the "Restore this Revision" option. You can witness that the revision has been restored on your post by transferring the latest post content to the Revisions section.

Idaho Nursing Home Neglect
When residents of a nursing home or assisted living facility are unable to reposition themselves, they are often susceptible to developing a bedsore. Immobility is a common factor in developing and advancing bedsores (pressure sores; decubitus ulcers; pressure ulcers).
A key component to preventing a developing pressure sore is to implement a two-hour readjustment or "turning" schedule as a part of the resident's health care plan. This ensures that any pressure on the body that touches the bed, chair or other body part is alleviating before it causes any damage to underlying tissue.
Within just a couple of hours, decubitus ulcers develop on any bony area of the body where pressure is continuously applied. This is because the pressure restricts oxygenated blood to the skin, which can cause permanent damage. If the pressure is not alleviated and oxygen cannot flow into the tissue, the area can become ulcerated and the skin can die. When this occurs, a shallow crater usually forms, exposing underlying tissue and fat.
Advancing stages of decubitus ulcers are often life threatening. In the final stages of a developing bedsore, muscle, tendons, ligaments and bone can be exposed. The open wound makes the area highly susceptible to a serious bone infection (osteomyelitis) and/or blood infection (sepsis). In severe cases, patients can die quickly from the infection.
Because the demand for nursing home beds in Idaho has risen dramatically over the last few years, so too has the need for quality medical staff of registered nurses (RNs) and licensed practical nurses (LPNs). The limited availability of highly trained professionals leaves nursing homes to hire unskilled caregivers. Many of these poorly trained caregivers have not received proper training to ensure that every patient at the facility is provided quality medical care. As a result, many patients develop a bedsore through neglect or improper monitoring.
The medical team at a nursing facility must perform specific tasks to minimize the potential of every patient developing a bedsore. These include:
Perform a skin assessment of every patient upon admittance to set a baseline of their skin's integrity
Note any existing bedsore during the skin assessment and take appropriate action to start healing protocols immediately
Ensure that the patient remains hydrated and consumes a healthy nutritious diet
Closely monitor the patient to ensure they are constantly clean and dry
Never allow patients to lie in their own urine, feces or sweat because excessive moisture can degrade the integrity of the skin
Strictly enforce a two-hour "turning" schedule ensuring that every patient is repositioned to alleviate pressure on bony prominences including the shoulders, head, hips, ankles, heels, buttocks, spine, sacrum and elbows
Many times, families are told by the medical staff that bedsores are to be expected as a part of the aging process. However, claiming bedsores just happen as a common occurrence in a nursing facility setting is untrue. Typically, these comments by the nursing facility administrators are usually a tactic for shielding the organization against potential litigation.
All too often premature death occurs from an infected bedsore acquired at the facility. Any advancing stage of a developing bedsore in a nursing home is usually an obvious sign that neglect and mistreatment is occurring at the facility. When family members detect a bedsore, it is essential to take immediate action to protect their loved one from further harm. It is essential to hire an Idaho bed sore attorney to stop the pain and abuse.
A skilled lawyer can hire a medical team with specific training in treating difficult decubitus ulcers. They provide their services in cities all across Idaho including:
- Boise
- Nampa
- Pocatello
- Idaho Falls
- Meridian
Fill in the form here to make contact with a reputable Idaho bed sore attorney to stop the neglect now. These experienced lawyers at Rosenfeld Injury Lawyers LLC work on contingency, meaning no upfront fees are required to obtain financial compensation for your loved one and ensure that they receive the best medical care possible.

With summertime fast approaching, vacations are inevitable. Whether it's a chore for you or the time of year you look forward to most, it never hurts to go 'green' while you're on holiday. In fact, few people even consider going on a green vacation for fear of sacrificing comfort and style.
Sure, it's a common misconception that 'greening' your holiday vacation entails shabby accommodations and limited activities to participate in, but we'll show you that it's possible to be environmentally responsible and indulge in the luxury of being green!
Green tourism allows you to do your part for the environment without asking you to sacrifice the comfort that holidays bring. Lately, there's been a surge in the number of hotels that consider themselves 'green', but first, there are a few things that make them green, so make sure the hotel you select is, in fact, eco-friendly.
So, what are 'green' accommodations? According to the Green Key Eco-Rating Program, environmentally friendly hotels and resorts are those that are devoted to improving their environmental performances, and in effect, limiting (as much as possible) any negative impact that their operations may have on the environment.
The Green Eco-Rating Program is a system designed to rate the environmental performances of hotels, motels, and resorts worldwide. The system is based on a 1-5 scale on the performance of hotels, judged by a comprehensive environmental self-assessment. Further, these accommodations are offered guidance on how to reduce negative environmental impacts with minimal fiscal expenditure.
The assessment covers five main operational areas and nine sustainable practice areas. The operational areas are corporate environmental management, housekeeping, food and beverage operations, conference and meeting facilities, and engineering. The nine sustainable practice areas are energy conservation, water conservation, solid waste management, hazardous waste management, indoor air quality, community outreach, building infrastructure, land use, and environmental management.
Accommodations that have been rated by the Green Key Eco-Rating Program are also susceptible to on-site inspections to confirm the rating. To see how some of your dream hotels are rated, check out www.greenkeyglobal.com.
To get you started on the overwhelming selection of green vacation accommodations, we're highlighting just a few luxurious eco-gems here!
Vancouver, Canada: The Fairmont Pacific Rim
At the Fairmont Pacific Rim, being green is a core value. The Fairmont pioneered the Green Partnership program and is committed to minimizing the negative impact that their hotel has on the planet through sustainable practices. Their green operations include focusing on improvements in waste management, sustainability, and energy and water conservation, and overall reduced utilities consumption, while participating in community outreach. The Fairmont uses methods varying from recycling and organic waste diversion to energy-efficient lighting and sustainable energy technology.
Hua Hin, Thailand: Six Senses Hideaway
Designed to be the best of eco-luxuries, the Six Senses Resort is devoted to reducing its impact on its environment. Its reduced energy consumption practices and priority of local, Thai, organic, Fair Trade products, and Marine Stewardship certified fish makes it an ideal 'green-keeper'. What's more, Six Senses keeps an organic garden that is hydrated using recycled water and uses recycled bottles, aluminum cans, and mud brick as its frame, with newspaper and compost from the garden's mushrooms as the planting medium. The resort also prioritizes its aim to benefit the Thai people, not only with food, but also with crafts: almost all of the materials, products, furnishings, and decorations are made by Thai locals with natural materials.
Aigle, Switzerland: The Whitepod Resort
Explore the Swiss Alps in a luxurious, green, and definitely new way! The Whitepod Resort is a collection of eco-friendly pods, or dome-shaped tents, that are pitched on wooden platforms. Accommodations are low-impact on the alpine environment, isolated from urbanism. The Whitepod Resort practices sustainable tourism by limiting its impact on its natural environment, including using methods such as minimizing daily water and electricity consumption, reducing waste production, favouring the use of renewable resources, and increasing clients' awareness of the need to protect the environment.
Certainly, these accommodations are evidence of the mutual respect that should exist between humans and nature. So next time you're going on vacation, why not experience the best of the best while also doing your part for the environment? Throw those ecotourism stereotypes out the window and get green!

Clarifying EB-5 and the New Commercial Enterprise By Greg Finkelson
by, 11-28-2014 at 12:51 PM (9706 Views)
Unfortunately, due to the more or less casual nature of everyday conversations concerning the EB-5 investment visa program, some people think that the burden of job creation falls upon the foreign investor. As a rule, we tend to say something like, a minimum of 10 jobs must be created per investor. That statement, although not entirely erroneous, is misleading.
The entity that is responsible for the creation of 10 jobs per investor is the NCE, or New Commercial Enterprise. It is the organizational entity that is managing the project. The NCE is the entity to which the EB-5 funds are ultimately loaned. It is the NCEs responsibility to plan the project and bring it to completion in conformance with the USCIS requirements so that the project is eligible for EB-5 funding, positioned to return the investors money, create the appropriate number of jobs and to secure the investors permanent residency status.
The burden is not on the individual investors. Because those investors do not have control over their money during the project, and because meeting the USCIS job creation requirement falls upon the NCE, each EB-5 investment is, as the program requires, truly at risk.
To learn more about how to put the EB-5 investment visa program to work for you, contact Dr. Gregory Finkelson at American Corporate Services or call 415-682-2550.

U.S. Government Refers Charges Against USS Cole Suspect Al-Nashiri At Guantánamo
ACLU Calls Move An 11th Hour Stunt To Tie Obamas Hands.
GUANTÁNAMO BAY, Cuba In one of its final moves at the Guantánamo military commissions, the Bush administration referred charges in the capital case of detainee Abd al-Rahim Hussain Mohammed al-Nashiri, who is being charged for his alleged involvement in crimes including the USS Cole bombing. The American Civil Liberties Union is sponsoring civilian attorneys to represent al-Nashiri through its John Adams Project, a partnership with the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers to supplement the under-resourced military defense teams that have been assigned to Guantánamo detainees.
The timing of the referral of these charges is extremely suspect. What we are seeing is another 11th hour stunt from the Bush administration to tie the hands of the incoming president, said Anthony D. Romero, Executive Director of the ACLU. Just this week, the Defense Department announced it is making plans to shut down Guantánamo and end these sham military commissions. While President-elect Obama is planning to end eight years of shameful policies that allowed torture and violations of domestic and international law, the Bush administration is desperately trying to extend it.
Now that Susan Crawford, the military commissions convening authority, decided to refer the charges for prosecution, al-Nashiri is required to appear before the military commission within 30 days for an arraignment.
The military commissions allow convictions based on secret evidence, hearsay, and evidence derived from torture including waterboarding, a technique the government has acknowledged it used on al-Nashiri.
This is the last gasp by an administration unwilling to accept the fact that this illegitimate system has failed, said Nancy Hollander, an attorney from the ACLUs John Adams Project who is representing al-Nashiri. The government has admitted to using torture, specifically waterboarding, to extract statements from Mr. al-Nashiri and then destroying the videotapes of his interrogations. One must suspect the motive of charging him now on the eve of a new administration after incarcerating him for six years without charges.

BBC London report on the Boris Watch websites

Boris does serious political debate now?

No, not really. He's got a fantastic line in thongs though.

Well he's already got the perfect outfit for it.
- 13 January 2009 at 19:03
They did skirt over a serious point, in that blogs are providing a counterbalance to the hugely uncritical press Boris gets everywhere else. Let's hope the Standard's ad revenue isn't too badly affected by the recession.

Boriswatch is currently down, I expect it's overloaded with people mistakenly looking for thongs.

- AdamB said...
They both seem to be working now. I found this on the other Boris Watch website (you know the fanboy one)
"And now, dear readers, Boriswatch has today been broadcast on BBC London, who pitched the site against the recently started Boriswatch.co.uk, a site less about accountability - as it states - and more about getting Mayor Ken back. I came out of the dark-roomed interview blinded by the lights and thinking of all the things I should have said instead. There was a lot more to the interview, but I suppose my staunch defence of Mayor Boris will have to stay on the cutting room floor…"
Miaow. What's wrong Boriswatch.com? Not selling enough thongs these days?
- 13 January 2009 at 21:30
Boriswatch.com (the thong one) is actually a very good read. It's been around since the dawn of Boris. You can't knock its popularity...
- 13 January 2009 at 23:01
- Tom said...
Perhaps they don't stretch as far as they used to. We didn't mention the probable sockpuppeting from .com, either (two comments under different names from the same Guildford IP, .com being based out of there). Or Gilligan. I did mention the gap in mainstream coverage for the first four months, but it got cut (there was a lot more interview, interrupted by a lot of coughing from the interviewer).

Hi fellow expats.

Just a general inquiriy as well, is listed rent prices up for negotiation, or do they usually go for the listed rental price?
Thank you for reading this.

Some benefits of Goodyear Gatorback Poly-V belts include durability and reduced heat build-up, according to Continental. These benefits save money and eliminate the need to replace the engine belt often. Reviews of the Gatorback belts on Amazon.com add that they are quiet, easy to install and provide a perfect fit for many vehicles.Continue Reading
Poly-V belts resist heat and cracking, making them more flexible and allowing them to run cooler. These belts absorb shock and vibration from engine components and help to reduce the noise of the engine. Gatorback belts also last a long time, with some customers putting over 10,000 miles on their vehicles with a single belt. These belts fit better, track better and transfer more power than similar competitors' belts, which amount to a smoother ride for longer periods of time. Even in wet conditions, Poly-V belts don't slip on the pulleys, and they always maintain control of the vehicle.
A customer on Amazon.com reports being able to change the belt without requiring a mechanic after watching an instructional video on the subject. Another customer on Amazon.com replaced multiple engine parts because the engine was squealing; after replacing the belt with a Poly-V belt, however, the noise stopped.Learn more about Car Parts & Maintenance

Facebook Graph Search Offers Some Interesting Marketing Insights
With the launch of Facebook Graph Search earlier this year, there has been a lot of enthusiasm among marketers to capitalize on this great marketing opportunity for improving their company's brand engagement efforts.
How Does Facebook Graph Search Work ?
Facebook Search Graph allows personalized search results for the end user based on their connections or contacts. Thus, the search graph examines your connections to determine the content that is liked by your connections (including friends or professional contacts) to match with your search term. Now, this can do wonders to local businesses in their business promotional campaigns.
Most of the search terms may be more relevant for finding information about local pubs, bars, restaurants, coffee shops etc. This can open up wide opportunities for small time retailers in attracting a larger target audience and help improve their sales volume.
Based on the search queries generated through the natural process, the Facebook Graph helps users to find relevant recommendations and interests from their primary network. The search engines help in finding content that is valuable, specific and targeted towards their users. Facebook Graph Search aims to provide high quality results to the users by prioritizing information in the best possible manner.
Using A Customer Centric Approach Might Help!
According to leading search engine marketing experts, the Facebook Graph Search has a huge potential in boosting customer interaction levels along with providing high page ranking results.
In short, the quality of the audience and the content that is advertised can have a significant impact on the ranking that your page receives!
This means, companies need to intensify their marketing campaigns through the Facebook platform by sharing relevant and engaging content that attracts the right level of audience.
Get More Influential Using Facebook Graph Page
-Be More Search Engine Friendly
Facebook Page Optimization is just as important to your business as much as other marketing tactics to build your online presence. Choose the right category for your business, provide a short and interesting description and make sure it is always updated with the latest information. The page name and URL must be relevant to your brand or business so that your target customers can easily find you, using your website.
-Engage And Discuss With People
The best strategy to attract and win your audience by sharing rich, relevant and valuable content still holds true to get more visibility through Facebook Graph Search. Share compelling content that your audience will enjoy reading and in turn recommend it to others. Increase your opportunities to build relationships with your customers by sharing regular posts and encourage them to leave their feedback and comments on them.
-Build Your Local Presence
The key for small businesses to succeed by using Facebook Graph Search lies in leveraging their local presence by sharing the most relevant business information with their customers. Thus, if someone is searching for a specific location of your business, then it may be easy for them to find your business, if you have provided the right address. Social signals such as "likes" and "Check-ins" may be viewed as a high and positive ranking indicators on Facebook Graph Search for your business.

February 22, 2014 8:22:37 PM
STARKVILLE -- Rick Ray is tired of his basketball team getting pats on the back for playing hard. In the eyes of the second-year Bulldogs coach, the time for excuses making for his program is over.
Following the team's ninth straight loss and Ray's 15th straight loss in February, Ray didn't want to paint a brighter picture of a 73-69 defeat to a Arkansas team that has struggled on the road.
"It's to be expected," Ray said as he shrugged his shoulders in frustration. "I don't want to belittle it but you're supposed play hard."
MSU (13-14, 3-11 in Southeastern Conference) found themselves in a early hole again due to a barrage of three-pointers led by a completely unknown element. Sophomore guard Anthlon Bell, who had just 11 total minutes played in the last five games, led the Razorbacks with 12 first-half points as they pushed out to a 32-21 lead in a frantic pace.
"I don't think anybody on their team at that point was a starter," MSU sophomore guard Craig Sword said. "When he started hitting shots, coach said we're going to have to get on him. It was a big shock."
During its nine-game losing streak, the loss to Arkansas represented the smallest margin of defeat during the stretch but Ray was unable to come up with several positive aspects to the loss. The fifth straight loss at home put MSU below the .500 mark for the first time in the 2013-14 season.
"I know some people want to give these guys credit for playing hard through the losing streak but if you're not playing hard then you're not giving yourself a chance to win," Ray said. "With us having so few numbers, if you're not playing hard then you have no chance to win."
Ray introduced a new lineup and rotation to Saturday's game in a two-fold solution to try and stop the slide. To counter Anderson's 94-feet of pressure defense, Ray wanted a second ball hander on the floor so freshman IJ Ready was paired with Trivante Bloodman. Two elements of the Bulldogs consistent 10-player rotation were benched as Fred Thomas and Tyson Cunningham failed to play a single minute Saturday.
"I think that gave us the best chance to win today," Ray said. "Those guys are not in the dog house."
Ray's decision marked the first time in Thomas' 58-game career where he didn't move off the bench and the 6-foot-5 wing player from Jackson had started the last 16 games. Instead of Thomas, Ray went with junior college transfer Tevin Moore for a career high 17 minutes. The 6-foot-3 guard from Olive Branch scored five points, grabbed four rebounds and it a three-pointer in the first half to keep the Bulldogs deficit close.
"Tevin is probably been the most enjoyable kid I've ever coached in my career," Ray said after the game. "He's never complained and I just thought we deserved to give him a chance. Hopefully he starts to feel comfortable with what he's doing out on the court."
Arkansas (18-9, 7-7 in Southeastern Conference) used its frantic pace under head coach Mike Anderson to cause 16 turnovers off 12 Razorbacks steals. According to Ken Pomeroy, a national statistical college basketball analyst, the Razorbacks are seventh in the country in pace of play.
"That's what we do," Anderson said with a smile on his face. "We're going to push that tempo and I thought with them being shorthanded, we were able to wear them down by the end."
Bell finished with a team-high 19 points in just 17 minutes. The sophomore guard from Memphis, Tenn., wasn't enough of a factor to register on the MSU coaching staff. Ray admitted after the loss Bell "wasn't on the scouting report" and MSU players expressed shock that he was the catalyst to their early offensive momentum.
MSU came into the contest third in the SEC in defending the three-point arc but allowed the Razorbacks to shoot 7-of-17 from three-point range Saturday. Ray credited that to MSU's ability to close out on shooters. Ray has been extra critical of his defense after giving up 92 points in back-to-back games to Auburn and LSU.
"We're already a small team so if we don't close out with our hands up, then it's like they're just shooting with nobody else in the gym," Ray said.
In the seventh time he's come off the bench in his 56-game career, Colin Borchert led all scorers with 21 points and seven rebounds in 31 minutes. After receiving a technical foul at LSU earlier in the week, Borchert came off the bench for Roquez Johnson and was forced to play a lot of minutes due to sophomore center Gavin Ware getting in foul trouble once again.
MSU tried to manage a last ditch comeback with a 7-minute defensive stand as the Razorbacks scored just three points over the final 6 minutes and 45 seconds. A jumper by Michael Qualls stood as the only field goal in that stretch as the lead slowly dipped to four. With 19 seconds left in regulation and MSU down 73-69, Ray again saw his team miscommunicate his instructions from the bench as a awkward possession ended with a desperation three-pointer by Moore in the corner after Borchert and Craig Sword fought over a pass.
"It was a communication of their full court defense and us just not being aware being out there," Borchert said.
MSU remains home to host Tennessee at 7 p.m. Wednesday. That contest will be televised regionally by SEC TV.

History of NACA - Angling, Conservation and Education.
Conservation campaigning isn't always about direct action or lobbying. Education is also of major importance, because if the issues that concern anglers are to be properly aired, and if our campaigns are to get the support they need, then it is crucial that other conservation bodies, politicians and the general public are also made aware of the problems that exist.
In 2008 continuing the theme of education and driving the values of NACA, with Awards For All Lottery funding making a further grant of £5000.00 to NACA, the Association has been able to acquire new display stands and IT equipment to enable development of resources that can be taken on the road to both entertain and inform any receptive audiences or organisations who have an interest in the work of managing fisheries and their environment.
