If there's one thing you and I know, with our extensive legal training (from watching The Good Wife and other legal dramas), it's that when you cross-examine a witness, you need to lead them carefully with pointed questions that require specific, short answers. We want yes/no, or we want very brief sentences that confirm what we already know. It's almost like we train witnesses to fall into our evil ploy. They can't help but answer us exactly how we want them to, which is amazing, because when witnesses drop those courtroom shock bombs on you, it's no bueno . . . at least, not for your side of the case.
And that, my friends, is all related to brand statements. So much so that I bothered my brother (a lawyer) for several minutes trying to figure out if what I was saying was at least a smidgen factual. Actually he was very courteous with my questions; I'll introduce him to you soon. And just wait, because if you think I'm a crazy person . . . but, moving on.
Brand statements and courtroom strategy. We'd love to hear the connection Regina.
Okay McSpeederton.
Speedsty McGee.
The Speedmeister.
Sir Speeds-a-lot.
I could go all day. But here it is:
If you answer the question, "So, what do you do?" with a trained, short, unengaging response, it might be time for a (new) brand statement—or even a new brand (but that's a story for another post . . . and speaking of other posts, here's one where I interviewed my "twin" on her rebrand). In fact, answering this question like you're being cross-examined is the main, undeniable sign you need a new brand statement.
I wrote this post and developed a brand statement formula out of necessity really. I was so tired of answering, "I'm a blogger" with my head down, like it was something to be ashamed of. Like it would take up SO much of a person's time to answer in a bit more detail. When we become embarrassed or complacent with what we do, or when we find it hard to proudly present our brand to the world, conversations go something like this:
Random person at a "networking" event: "So, what do you do?"
You: "Oh, I'm a graphic designer."
Rando McGruff: "Wow. Cool."
The end.
Mr. McGruff will barely remember this graphic designer in five minutes, and tomorrow, no chance.
Why didn't you give more detail?
"I design clickworthy websites + blogs for wellness entrepreneurs. I'm Fiona Reddington, FionasFitBrands.com. Slight cheese factor, I know, but that's totally me."
"I work as a wedding designer with women who want seriously non-traditional yet hip weddings on a budget. It's the most fun ever. I'm actually finishing up work on The Ultimate Indie Wedding Planner, which is a 200-page planning binder. So excited."
"I speak to college students about branding themselves and building a solid platform way before graduation. The market is not what it once was, and it seems more and more like people need something beyond, or something other than, a degree to find meaningful work."
Sure, you have to judge the situation. Not everyone asking should get your full life story, but if someone answered you with one of the answers above when you asked the "What do you do?" question, would you be more likely to remember them? Or check out their website later? Or remember to mention them to a friend/colleague in need of services such as theirs?
Brand statements, yo.
Which are, statements that define a brand. Kinda like mission statements. Bite-sized collections of information that help people decide how serious you are about your brand, what your brand even stands for, why what you do matters, and how what you do is different from the 107 people they met (yesterday) who claim to do the same thing.
And. It's not that the crafting of a brand statement is difficult (I'm gonna show you a formula below), it's that we forget to do it. It's that we don't realize how necessary it is sometimes. It's that we are all flailing about in business to a certain degree, figuring things out as we go, and sometimes we forget to go back and define what we've built.
Today is your day. The day you build a brand statement. The day you stand up and stand out with your words—in a sea of people walking around with "I'm a graphic designer" responses.
Forgive me. I was so bored with that, I fell asleep just typing it.
What I'm about to share is neither rocket science nor business genius. It's a simple exercise we can all do to make sure we have a solid brand statement on deck. To make sure we're answering people as completely as possible when they ask us about our work. To make sure we give our brand a chance to form a strong, memorable impression.
And now, I shall be bossy. Here's how to write a brand statement. Follow these directions, now.
Get out four note cards. Or sticky notes. Or any moveable paper product. Write down the following things, one on each card.
1. Who do you serve?
Hint: Be more specific than whatever you just wrote down.
2. Why do you care?
3. What do you actually provide?
4. What do you offer that's different from everyone else?
Once you have these items on notecards, all we have to do is move them around to the correct order, abridge some stuff, and make it work. I'll show you what I mean. Let's use our crazy wedding planner as an example.
Who do you serve? Brides who want non-tradish weddings on a budget.
Why do you care? Because I was a 20-something with no money who met the love of my life and wanted to get married, without all the traditions that made zero sense to me. It was hard to plan my wedding. I want to help make it simpler for others.
What do you actually provide? Supportive semi-monthly check-ins + co-planning of a wedding.
What do you offer that's different? Step-by-step guidance via DIY materials. Having pre-packaged materials helps me keep costs low while giving the bride control over the process. I'm still able to help tailor plans to a bride's desires through check-ins.
Now, let's try a brand statement in a few different orders:
I help brides who want non-traditional weddings, like the one I had when I had no money but needed to put something together in five weeks. I want other brides to have a simpler, guided process, so I offer DIY planning materials and tailored check-ins to help people through their indie wedding planning. [who you help >> why you care >> what's different + what you provide]
I'm a non-traditional wedding planner. As in, I help brides plan non-traditional/indie weddings on a budget, but I also do it non-traditionally through DIY materials to keep costs low. It's the service I needed but didn't have when I got married. [what you provide/do >> who you help >> what's different >> why you care]
I use DIY wedding planning materials and tailored check-in meetings to co-plan weddings with non-traditional brides on a budget. It's the guidance I wish I'd had when planning my own indie wedding in five weeks. It was crazypants, and I don't want other brides to have to go through it. [why it's different + what you do >> who you help >> why you care]
In 2 – 3 sentences you can stand out, be firm about why you do what you do, show some personality, and clearly define your brand and who you serve.
I'm listening. Leave me your brand statement in the comments of this post, or come talk to me on social media. I want to hear.
Do it now. Okay—ending my bossy moment. For all the coders out there: </bossy>

Instead, he speaks the truth and waits for ordinary people to hear his voice and choose to follow him. The ordinary gathers energy for the extra-ordinary to come.

Woody Allen has championed the talents of his long term casting director Juliet Taylor in an open letter. Allen's letter was published in The Hollywood Reporter at a time when casting directors and their supporters are calling for recognition at the Oscars from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
Allen, who has won five Oscars for his films, screenplays and directing, wrote that "a number of discoveries and careers have been launched by the energies and resourcefulness of my casting director" including those of Mariel Hemingway and Dianne Wiest and Meryl Streep "when she was a relative unknown" in 1979 film Manhattan, Streep's third movie and largest film part at the time.
"I'm particularly difficult in the casting area because the whole process bores and embarrasses me," Allen admits in the letter. "Juliet has forced me to meet and to watch the work of many new people and to hire people on nothing more then her strong recommendation [...] I owe a big part of the success of my films to this scrupulous casting process".
In July the Academy announced a new branch for casting directors, leading many in the industry to believe there was a greater chance there would be Oscar recognition in the pipeline. The documentary Casting By, which documents the history of Hollywood casting directors through more than 230 interviews and achive footage, has opened in New York on Friday after debuting at Toronto Film Festival 2012.

About Copper Fit®
Copper Fit® compression products are manufactured with copper ions bound at the fiber level during the manufacturing process. Our copper fiber process will not easily wash out or quickly wear away, and has been tested to remain effective for numerous washes. More important, copper is environmentally friendly, a natural mineral, and is a required nutrient of many ecosystems present in nature.
Benefits of Copper
For thousands of years people have appreciated copper's many natural properties. Ancient Egyptians, Romans, and Aztecs used copper for many purposes[1], and it is known to possess properties that protect against odors and other benefits.
- Copper's natural properties provide protection against bacteria that can cause stains, odors and deterioration of the product. Copper is more effective than stainless steel or silver containing coatings
- Essential nutrient for the human body
- Non-sensitizing, and non-irritating to the skin; not harmful to people or the environment
1Gregor Grass, Christopher Rensing, and Marc Solioz, Metallic Copper as an Antimicrobial Surface, Applied Environmental Microbiology, 2011 March; 77(5): 1541-1547 and http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3067274/
Benefits of Compression
Compression garments have long been known for providing muscle and circulatory support. Doctors often prescribe compression garments to help treat varicose veins, to avoid dangerous clots and thrombosis, to avoid blood pooling in the extremities, and to treat low blood pressure. Some studies indicate athletes can run longer with less pain, and recover faster. Many athletes and celebrities swear by their compression sleeves- claiming they have more energy, their muscles work more efficiently, and they avoid injury while exercising.2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
Our compression garments may help
- Provide support for muscle stiffness, soreness, and pain
- Reduce recovery time of muscles
- Support improved circulation and oxygenation of working muscles
- Prevent strain and fatigue by keeping muscles warm
Compression garments are only effective when they are being worn and properly sized.

As luck has it, Oregon faced all of its spread opponents in the early part of the season, and will face all of its pro-style opponents in the second half of the season. Colorado is a perfect primer for the rest of Oregon's schedule, and will allow the Ducks some time to adjust to a different style of play.
That is unless Colorado, and the teams that follow the Buffs, aren't very different from Oregon.
Supposedly, there's a very big difference between Oregon's offense and Colorado's…all statistics notwithstanding, of course. First, there's the quarterback, who lines up under the center most of the time in Colorado's offense, while Oregon's quarterback almost never lines up under center. Then there's the… hmm… well, Colorado likes running the power play. So does Oregon. Colorado likes using outside zone, inside zone, play action, and dives. So does Oregon. The same could be said for any of the remaining teams on Oregon's schedule.
Aesthetics, and more than a few points per game, are the only thing separating Colorado's offense and Oregon's.
That is, aside from one mysterious play: the counter play.
For some unknown reason, Oregon hasn't used the counter concept in more than a half-decade. For that reason alone, there should be considerable panic regarding the Colorado offense pummeling an unprepared Duck defense with this bizarre counter play.
In all seriousness, Colorado does have a big running back and a physical tight end, and their abilities were showcased on this particular counter ran against UCLA.
The counter play is essentially play-action on the ground, as it fools the defense into thinking a play is going one direction, and then going another. Linebackers usually read different players on the offense to find "keys" to the direction of a play. For instance, the linebackers may read the fullback to see where the play is headed. On this particular counter play, the fullback counters to the left, while the play goes to the right. In the pictures below, see how the defense anticipates a play going to the offense's left, when in reality it is headed to the right.
As shown below, the running back takes his "counter-step" to the left when the ball is snapped. The defense reacts to the counter step, and shifts towards the wide side of the field. The fullback proceeds to his left, further confirming the defense's prediction. While the defense is watching the backfield, the right guard pulls to the outside to kick out the defender (topmost red arrow). That block will prove to be one of the "spring" blocks on this run.
Step forward another frame, and the counter action becomes even more complex. The quarterback opens up to his left, and has the ball in his right hand, indicating a run to the left. The defense reacts accordingly, and it appears as if the Bruins are in position to make the play.
Step forward one frame, and the Colorado quarterback has switched hands, and the running back plants and head the other direction!
At this point, UCLA's defense is way out of position. The Bruins were quite literally tricked into going one direction, before having to go another. The kick-out block opens the lane, and the tight end (orange circle) finishes his double-team with a great second level block. The running back heads for the big hole to the right, and cuts upfield for a good gain.
I expect to see plays like this throughout the game, because Colorado should run their offense as usual, even if they are down by 30+ points. Counter plays are good for developing offenses, because they make blocking defenders a lot easier, simply because the defender will lose time in pursuing the play, and will not have a suitable angle to beat a block.
Hopefully the Buffs will run this play, and remind Chip of the deadly concept he once used.

Last week I was invited to the Gleneagles Hotel Scottish Press Day which turned out to be a splendid afternoon. This corporate event was held at the Good Houskeeping Institute which was a great location in Soho.
Gleneagles is a world's famous 5* Hotel based on the 850 acres of Perthshire grounds roughly 600 miles from where I am now!
Finding out more about who the Hotel cater for, what activities there are to do on the grounds, and restaurants on site to eat at was very mind blowing. I definitely want to visit this place in person.
232 luxurious bedrooms, 14 event suites, award winning ESPA spa and Michelin-starred restaurants and just some of the many things Gleneagles Hotel has to offer their visitors.
Sampling a great selection of some food served at the hotel itself by the chefs themselves were a great touch! It all tasted so lovely!
The Hotel has a few top Restaurants and Bars which all look pretty lavish!
The Strathearn
Andrew Fairlie
The Dormy Clubhouse
The Blue Bar
The Tryst
I had a spot of golf training which was so cool but just imagine actually playing it over the immaculate greens of Gleneagles. I always knew I was a professional! Not, but I didn't do too bad... so the instructor told me. This was just one of the many activities you can do on your retreat to the hotel.
Other Activities include; Shooting, fishing, off road driving, equestrian schooling, Gundog schooling, school of falconry and of course facilities for children.
What caught my attention right from the beginning was the ESPA Spa facilities. I love ESPA so finding out about their 20 treatment rooms, pool, relaxing pampering haven and salon made my eyes light up!
Overall you sense the wealthy vibes of this hotel and what it has to offer. Especially when you have the option to pay for the finest bottles of whisky or cigars to give you extended privileges of the Blue Bar. This amazes me! Who wouldn't want to be sat on heated seats in the courtyard.
Does this look like somewhere you want to visit?

"At Military Spouse Magazine, we are honored to give a voice for these amazing spouses to share their commitment, dedication and sacrifice," said Suzie Schwartz, President of Military Spouse Programs. "Each 2017 Armed Forces Insurance Military Spouse of Year® Branch winner is striving to improve the lives of others in their communities. Their work, efforts and messages are truly inspiring and simply outstanding."
The Military Spouse of the Year® program represents millions of past and present military spouses who dedicate their lives and families to service of a grateful nation and give back to communities in need. This year's contest began with more than 1,000 nominations across all military branches, and nearly 70,000 votes have been cast so far. The final day of voting will take place on March 2 at http://www.msoy.militaryspouse.com.
"Our nation's military spouses are 'the' most valuable unpaid individuals within the umbrella of the Department of Defense," said Garry L. Parks, Lieutenant General, U.S. Marine Corps (Ret.), Chairman, Armed Forces Insurance. "Being a military spouse requires a special kind of strong, independent and dedicated individual. This incredibly supportive group directly bolsters military forces around the globe. Beyond the love they exude for their serviceman or woman, the military spouse may be confronted with the need to raise children as a single parent, manage the home front during lengthy deployments, repair a broken washing machine and/or represent the family at a PTA meeting. Armed Forces Insurance wishes to applaud the many contributions of ALL who competed. Our nation's Armed Forces is unquestionably stronger because of your selfless support!"

One tip for troubleshooting a Roomba vacuum is to reset the device and charge it for 16 or 72 hours without interruption to rule out issues with the battery system. Another tip for troubleshooting battery and power issues include removing the battery from the unit and charging it directly. After charging the battery for no more than 15 minutes, reinstall it, and start the device. Replace the battery if the vacuum is only able to operate for a few minutes.Continue Reading
Another method of troubleshooting Roomba problems is to remove any hair or fuzz that may have become trapped within the unit. Use compressed air to clean out any debris that may impair performance, and then test the vacuum to ensure proper operation. For devices that still have problems, access the units diagnostic mode. Cleaning the units optical tachometers is another troubleshooting method that can address issues causing the vacuum to circle backwards upon activation before stopping completely.
Cleaning dirt and other debris that may become stuck between the wheels and body may solve a number of movement problems. Always consult the owner's manual when attempting to troubleshoot a problem. Some self-repairs may void the warranty or cause further harm to the vacuum. Always wear eye protection and dust mask when performing any repairs on the unit.Learn more about Appliances

Verse 1
It's interesting how you intruige me,
I've been around but never seen a smile so pretty,
You like my style, causing a great feeling,
My emotions jumping high up to the ceiling,
In this world we live there are many choices,
Surprising that we've heard eachother through the voices,
Sweet midnight eyes looking right at me,
Let's take the night downtown babe, just you and me.
Yeah yeah
(I'm feeling you, you're feeling me)
(San Diego night in ecstacy)
(Do you know how I feel?)
Beauty shining in your eyes,
Chilling under ivory lights,
When I hold you close tonight,
Such a great feeling,
My oh my I feel alright,
You and I lets take the night,
Loving me you've got my...
Emotions Running Wild
Verse 2
In this cold night, warmth is what you're needing,
Though the club is closed please let's not end our evening,
Time to sit back and relax in our own motel room,
Drive-thru across the street's still open what can I get for you?
Your stilettos off, I'll massage your feet babe,
Weather Channel on as we fall asleep babe,
Hold your gentle hand as we lay together,
Moments like this make me want to be with you forever...
(Let's take our time, enjoy the night)
(Let me hold you tight, the feeling's right)
(Glad this moment is real)
Glad this moment is real! Ohohoohwhoa!

On February 27 2004, Transport Canada decided the construction of a shellfish farm in Blind Bay, British Columbia needed an environmental assessment because of requirements in the Navigable Waters Protection Act.
Five years later, the facility — which required floats, weights and anchors to be placed in BC's Georgia Strait — was approved after the outfit in charge of performing the assessment, the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency, concluded the project wouldn't harm the environment.
That seems like a pretty straightforward link between the Navigable Waters Protection Act (NWPA) and environmental policy, and for the better part of two decades examples like these were normal, even if the NWPA itself never mentions the environment.
Just check any easily-available regulatory filings.
In April of this year, Cenovus Energy was advised by Alberta's environment department to go and see if the NWPA would trigger an assessment for a thermal project it was working on.
Another random example from the government's own mouth – Transport Canada explained to the town of Markham in a March 2008 letter that some approvals under the NWPA would mean an assessment.
And it wasn't only in the hidden corners of the public service that this relationship was well known.
The Senate, in a 2009 report on previous changes to the NWPA, stated unequivocally that the act is linked to environmental policy.
"The NWPA plays a wider role beyond that of protecting public navigational rights because the navigational approval process under the NWPA can trigger environmental assessments though the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act," says the Standing Senate Committee on Energy, the Environment and Natural Resources' report from June 2009.
So when government ministers, in response to more changes to the NWPA being made in the most recent omnibus budget bill, began speaking as if the link never existed this week, the opposition New Democrats were understandably confused.
Environment Minister Peter Kent reiterated the government's position Thursday after he spoke at a luncheon in an Ottawa hotel.
"The Navigable Waters Act provided for navigation," said Kent. "The changes that were made to that act are under the Transport Ministry – they involved transport infrastructure."
Later, outside the House of Commons, the NDP's environment critic Megan Leslie pointed out the government's revised history.
"What they're trying to say is it has nothing to do about protecting environment and I beg to differ," said Leslie "It's a strong piece of environmental legislation, just like we know that the Fisheries Act was a strong piece of environmental legislation."
So who's right?
Technically, Kent.
The NWPA in Leslie's mind is the one that existed for the past two decades until June this year. The NWPA according to Kent has only existed for four months. The reason is an altogether different piece of law.
Those who remember the spring's omnibus budget bill will recall that changes to Canadian Environment Assessment Act (CEAA) were a big reason why the opposition opposed it.
Alongside alterations to other acts impacting environmental policy, CEAA was repealed and replaced with a different act.
The new act, called CEAA 2012, completely reformed the way the federal government performed environmental assessments for industrial projects.
Under the old act, anytime a federal agency or department had to provide a license or grant some kind of approval, that federal body had to ask the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency to perform an assessment.
CEAA 2012 took away that trigger and replaced with more narrow requirements: the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency would be called in if the National Energy Board or the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission needed an assessment, or if the environment minister designated an activity or a class of activities as requiring an assessment.
So when someone would build something — like a shellfish farm for instance — the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency would spring into action and perform an assessment because the person behind the project would need government permission under the NWPA to proceed.
But when the spring's budget received royal assent on June 29 and CEAA 2012 replaced the old CEAA, that link between the NWPA and environmental policy was cut.
So Kent's right, at least since last Canada Day.

Rad Trads in DC: Bannon, Burke and the SSPX
Published on Feb 15, 2017
MSNBC enlists the aid of radically liberal Jesuit, Father James Martin, to try to target and destroy the "radical Traditionalism" which is allegedly rising up from St. Peter's Square to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave and beyond. In his eagerness to lend a hand, Fr. Martin proceeds to equate what he calls "rad trads" with – wait for it – the entire Church Militant on earth. (Finally, he got something right.) Michael Matt comments on this bombshell, and then shares his opinion on an SSPX- Vatican regularization in the midst of the chaos and destruction of arguably the most destructive pontificate in history.

Fourteen-year-old Dylan St. Cyr, son of Manon Rheaume, is an American goaltending prodigy fast-tracking to the big time with a secret weapon on his side
Prior to every game he plays, Dylan St. Cyr has a ritual. He absolutely must make a glove save on the last shot during warmup, then he drops the puck and skates out of his crease. Judging by how good he is, despite being barely into his teens, the routine seems to be working pretty well for him.
St. Cyr is a 14-year-old playing for one of the top midget teams in North America: Detroit HoneyBaked. In the recent Silver Stick Championship tournament in Whitby, Ont., he backstopped his team to the championship by posting five straight shutouts. He led HoneyBaked to a national bantam championship last season and is a rising star among American-born goalies.
Like a lot of good hockey players, he possesses excellent genes. His father, Gerry, was once a star in the Western League and played five years of pro hockey in the minors. Now, most would automatically think the good bloodlines would naturally flow from Dad. But what a lot of people don't know about the goalie is he's also the son of Manon Rheaume, a women's goaltending pioneer, a former world women's champion and Olympian, and the first woman to appear in an NHL pre-season game.
Twenty-one years after playing for the Tampa Bay Lightning, Rheaume, 41, looks pretty much the same. But now she's a hockey mom who can legitimately provide tips to her hockey-playing sons. "I see a lot of myself when I watch him play," Rheaume said. "Making a glove save at the end of every warmup, I used to do exactly the same thing. And I never even told him about that. It's a little bit scary, actually."
The mother also sees other similarities when she watches her son play. Growing up in Quebec, Rheaume was always the only girl on her elite teams and felt she had to overcome the gender bias by working even harder to prove she belonged. St. Cyr, on the other hand, has played up a year on every team of which he has been a part and has had to earn every bit of playing time he has received.
About the only knock against St. Cyr is that he's currently not much bigger than his mother. At 5-foot-7 and 156 pounds, he doesn't fit the mold of today's big butterfly goaltender, but his father is six-feet tall and Dylan still has time to grow.
Like Martin Brodeur, St. Cyr manages to keep a high concentration level despite the low number of pucks he faces. And he's definitely a gamer. Anyone who can post five shutouts in a tournament – the second time he's done that this season – is someone who can be relied upon in big games. He points to his mother's influence, saying she worked with him on technique, but her tutelage was far more valuable when it came to dealing with the mental aspects of the game. "I love big games," St. Cyr said. "I don't know what it is about them, but that's where I really seem to shine. I definitely love the pressure of those games."
St. Cyr was born in Las Vegas and has grown up in suburban Detroit. With both of his parents born in Canada, he holds dual citizenship, but considers himself an American for hockey purposes. The Ontario League will hold his major junior draft rights – when he's eligible in 2015 – but he's unsure of his future.
One thing he is certain about is that he wants to play on the U.S. National Team Development Program, but he's a year away from joining the under-17 team. And he'll only be able to play in the United States League next season if he's deemed an exceptional player, so it may be another year of dominating the competition at the minor midget level. It would mark the first time St. Cyr has played with his age group. "We'll see where I fit in," St. Cyr said. "That's a decision I'm going to have to make later."

Now it's official: No more watering
By Anessa Myers
Published in News on October 26, 2007 1:46 PM
Goldsboro water users only have a little more than a week left to get their lawns watered -- or to wash their cars at home.
As of Nov. 5, Goldsboro will enter the third -- and most restrictive -- phase of water conservation rules, Goldsboro City Council members decided at a special meeting Thursday.
The council adopted the revisions of the Water Shortage Response Ordinance -- and decided to give residents until the first week of November to adjust to the changes.
The vote ended a couple of weeks of discussion concerning just how much citizens will be required to conserve to deal with dwindling water supplies caused by the statewide drought.
The discussion of stricter rules came after a statewide call for increased conservation by Gov. Mike Easley last week.
In the meantime, city officials are still watching the water supply here.
Officials also said the rain over the past few days has not gotten the city water levels out of the danger zone.
"The river is rising," Public Utilities Director Karen Brashear said. "The (U.S. Army) Corps of Engineers reduced releases from the dam. It's a good beginning."
Mayor Al King said residents should not be lulled into a sense of security based on the recent rain.
"It's a good start, but we're not there," he said. "We're still in the woods."
Mrs. Brashear said that the Neuse River should see a wave of water come through in a few days, but city officials will not know how much the rain helped the drought situation until then.
So, until the water levels are more secure, city residents will need to observe stricter regulation.
At this point, Phase III:
* Prohibits residential watering of plants and vegetation.
* Prohibits personal car washing except at commercial car washes that reduce usage by 30 percent.
* Prohibits filling of ornamental pools or fountains.
* Prohibits water served at restaurants except upon request.,
* Prohibits use of hydrant water for anything other than fire or emergencies and no bulk sales.
* States that water-cooled equipment must recycle water except when health and safety are adversely affected.
* Prohibits watering of golf courses and athletic fields.
* Prohibits water use for dust control and compaction.
* States that large water users must plan to reduce water use by 15 to 33 percent or face excess demand surcharges.
* Prohibits intentional misuse or wasting of water.
* States that leaks must be repaired within 24 hours of discovery.
* States that a bond is required for delay of required landscaping and if installed, any irrigation must be brought from outside the city's public water system.
Other mandatory conservation measures are included in the revision of the ordinance. One of those other measures is the addition of an excess demand surcharge, which means that if the resident or business uses more than their annual average, they will be charged double rates for both water and sewer.
The ordinance will also include revisions to the water shortage crisis phase and other phases of the ordinance.
The end version is expected to be made public on the city's Web site on Monday.

Vietnam has over 3, 444 km of coastline, from rugged wave beaten cliffs to dazzling palm fringed white beaches. Bombora Surf Company decided that there must be more to Kiteboarding and surfing than Mui ne, a once quiet fishing village tucked into a protected bay in S. Vietnam.
With that in mind we set out via bus, motorbike and the good old fashioned, never to be underestimated feet on the search for something a bit different. Armed with flaky stories from the trailblazers of yesteryear our destination was Phan Rang and the anticipation of what we might find there was pretty high. There was talk that folks had kited and surfed waves so big and clean that you thought you had been sucked through a worm hole and reappeared on one of Indo's legendary breaks, water that you could actually snorkel in and see to the reef below, not very easy to find in the East Sea.
We took along Win, Vietnam's premiere Kitesurfer and all round water magician who took to the task, well like a duck to the wet stuff. This film is the result of our search, a short incite into what this coastline and people have to offer if your willing to just get up and search for it.
Using an unmanned drone we explore the blueness both above and below the Spice Islands in Indonesia. Many thanks to Sky Rama Media for having the balloons to fly over water and at such a great altitude, only piloting this thing with line of sight. I hope you enjoy......

LUFKIN, TX (KTRE) - Since they began playing together at the age of six, Angelina College basketball players Erica and Tiffany Adair speak the same language on the basketball court. Off the court they don't seem to speak much.
"I try to," Erica says.
"I've always been shy," Tiffany says. "Especially in front of the camera."
"They're shy just in front of the camera," A.C. head coach Byron Coleman says. "They both have good personalities, especially Tiffany. She's the team dancer and team singer and kind of the team jokester."
Tiffany is also one of the team scorers. She's been a scorer ever since her days at Kennard, where she won a state championship with her sister in 2006.
"It was great," Erica Adair says. "I kind of miss my high school years, but we doing great things now."
"It feels good representing the little town of Kennard," Tiffany adds.
In there final season together, the Adair sisters hope to win one more championship.

A recent scheduling conflict required me to be out of the office for my first two Lib100 classes this semester. Rather than canceling them I decided to partner with our Cisco Fellow, Gretchen Edwards, to hold the classes online using a system called WebEx.
WebEx is a real-time online collaboration tool that includes a suite of video conferencing, screen sharing, and polling features. The key features include multi-person audio discussion, chatting, personal video, polling, document sharing, application sharing, desktop sharing and distributed control. In our first two classes we only touched on a few of these features but wanted to take a moment to write up our initial experience.
What we did
Gretchen and I talked through a lot of options for approaching the first two classes. We discussed different interaction options (discussion time, polling, student sharing of video and PowerPoint) and decided to focus on a few simple interactions. In our first class we got folks oriented to the system and did a quick poll to find out how they have used information and the web up to this point. The second class involved listening to a news piece, a poll, a lecture and discussion time. We finished up each class with a Google poll to find out what they thought about each class.
The WebEx platform allowed us to share our video, chat with students and guide the class using a number of tools. The screen shot above shows video streaming with our PowerPoint slides on the left. In both the first and second classes Gretchen took a few minutes to introduce WebEx concepts (video streaming, chatting, muting/un-muting, document sharing) with the class.
The second class started out with students listening to a piece on NPR and answering a poll on what they thought about the piece. As I went through the lecture for the day I was able to use answers pulled from the poll on specific slides. Gretchen and I worked on getting audio to stream through WebEx but found that the best option was to have students listen to the piece on their own computer.
We finished each class with a survey asking students to reflect on what they learned and to ask any outstanding questions. The second time we asked some direct questions about what they thought about WebEx and asking what other classes they thought might work well on WebEx.
What we found
Not surprisingly, several students really liked the idea of attending class from their dorm room :). A few commented on technical issues and indicated that WebEx should be used sparingly (e.g. Lecture time only) but nobody in the class indicated that we should stop using it entirely. In contrast, some students advocated for either a blended or 100% online experience.
I found that having a structured power point document with speaker notes up on a separate device (see below) helped keep me on my talking points during the class. This can be difficult in WebEx as you do not see speaker notes when sharing ppt slides. I also found that it took about 2 hours of preparation to create the polls, setup the class in webEx and run through timing and interactions. Unlike a face-to-face class, keeping track of time and cues from the students takes a bit more effort.
Clearly organization was a big deal and having Gretchen there to handle all of the technical issues that students were having as well as participate in the class instruction time was really helpful. Most of the students had never taken an online class before so we needed to take time to make sure everyone was comfortable using the system. In both classes however we had all of the students successfully connect and interact.
So what did we learn? Here are a few tips:
1. Preparation! – It helped to do a short talk through video to share with Gretchen so that we would both be on the same page when class happened. I did this by creating a 4-5 minute screencast of a demo WebEx session and sharing it. While probably overkill, it made me feel better about what would happen during the class. Some other pre-class preparation that we did was pre-create poll questions, put the WebEx event on student's Gmail calendars and identify one or two key 'learning moments' or interactions to focus on.
2. Have technical support – The first class required a lot of work. Tech support both for the instructors and the students is a good thing.
3. Be prepared to wait – You are in essence talking to yourself the entire time, ask students for queues and feedback (e.g. raised hand, verbal comments, chat comments) or use short polls to get interaction going. Getting everyone to talk is tough but breaking up a lecture with short interactions not only keeps it fun it helps you understand what students understand or do not understand. In our second class we showed students how to control their microphone muting and during discussion time the interaction felt very much like an in-person discussion would. As always, it took a good minute for someone to make the first comment though!
4. Have fun – WebEx is a new experience for everyone and there was a bit of excitement just in how things were happening. Building on that sense of fun and excitement is well worth the effort.
What's next?
Gretchen and I are going to look at the student feedback forms from the first few weeks and I am going to chat with students about how many more sessions they would like to do online. While WebEx takes more prep than an in-person class (at least for now), from my experience it helps create just as good a classroom environment.

One of my most favorite verses is Genesis 1:1 because I believe it includes all other verses within it. Most people read the English translated (by man) version that says something like "in the beginning God created…"
Is that what scripture actually says? Here are the original words in the original order.
Now, seriously, ask yourself who does the creating (spiritual birthing)? "He "does, doesn't he? Is this the father? I believe it is.
Who is birthed?
Is it not Elohim? Is this the Son being "begotten" or spiritually born?
Check out Psalms 2
I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou [art] my Son; this day have I begotten thee Psalms 2:7
This is reiterated in Hebrews 1:5.
For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? Heb 1:5
Please notice it is occurring on THIS day and is ongoing. The entire old creation is being reborn into the new. That's something to celebrate today!

General Personality: While Camille does not appreciate the place she's in nor likes the people she has to surround herself with, she's learned to cope with it and to keep her mouth shut. Rather than offer the Adveni spiteful words, she gives them a warm smile and coy words. The person she is and the person she's showing off are completely different. She's simply adapted and learned that its easier to survive rather than try to fight a losing battle. In truth Camille hates her life and some days she hates herself for putting up with her situation, but she never lets it show. She knows better than to let others learn of her weaknesses and flaws. She also knows that the wrong move could potentially kill her and so she rarely ever gets personally involved with anyone. The less people know about her, the better.
Are you a Sect Member: No
Name of Sect:
Camille was the firstborn child in the family by 7 years. Being the oldest growing up, she was the sister in a poor family that had little money meant that she had to grow up fast and help her mother out at home. Even more so when her father hurt himself at work and lost his job. Living on her mother's salary was no easy feat, especially as she only worked as a cleaner and thus didn't earn much. Camille's father got out when he could, divorcing her mother and moving in with a new woman only half a month later.
Camille understood what was going on but she always found herself snorting when their mother brought home strange men and told her to go and play with her sisters, keep them occupied. Next day, they'd have a little more money than usual and sometimes Haley would give them presents. Camille always sold them to some guy at school who had a brother who played on the other side of the law. While she understood their mothers need to care for them, she didn't want any gifts.
School never mattered much to Camille but she dragged her way through every week, always looking forward to the weekend as it was the time when they got to live with their dad and his new girlfriend. She didn't like her very much, but that she got to spend time with her father was really all that mattered. It was much better than that pissy little hole they called home. It only got worse. Their mother kept bringing home men, occasionally one would stick around long enough for Haley to call them her boyfriend.
At the age of 19, not long after graduating high school, Camille packed a backpack and left home. This after Haley's current boyfriend started to hit on her. She never looked back, or even considered going home. Camille spent almost two years on the street before the Adveni revealed themselves. The war, while long and hard, didn't affect Camille. She had nobody to lose. Nobody she cared for. She survived the war by keeping her head down and grabbing food where she could get it.
Shortly after the end of the war, Camille was picked up from the streets by a man named Chow. After finding out that she was unregistered, he promised to get her paper if he came to work for her. Camille didn't know quite what she was getting herself into when she accepted. Before she knew it she was a registered drysta, owned by Chow and forced to work at his establishment, a brothel called Zselket's.
Struggling to fit in, Camille was forced to take more than one beating before she understood her place. There was nowhere to run. So she watched and learned from the other girls. One day she met a peculiar man named Adrian, who treated her better than most who paid for her company. He returned, time and time again and soon became her regular. In a world of fear, he became her pillar of support.
When Chow suddenly got sent back to his own planet and Zselket's began to trade owners, not only once but three times, Camille began to fear for her safety and started wondering just where she would end up. She was surprised when she learned that the establishment's newest owner was someone she knew very well: Adrian Dale. During the first month, Camille found herself in bed with their new owner on several occasions. She soon found out that she was pregnant. When she told Adrian, he decided to take the child away from her: as well as her ability to ever get pregnant again.
Even so, she's never strayed from his side. Camille recovered and as of today she's the go-to girl when someone in Zselket's has a problem that they can't talk to Adrian about. She's also the one who takes care of all the new girls that come in, and that teaches them how the world they live in works.

Did you know that acupuncture can improve your chance of pregnancy? Not only can it help with pain management, digestive problems, studies have shown that can also improve fertility. It is a wonderful option for those that are looking for a natural way to promote their fertility potentials, using the skilled Los Angeles fertility specialist, acupuncture can help to improve your chances of getting pregnant.
A Look at Acupuncture
Acupuncture has been in practice for thousands of years, and its use has been documented as far back as 3000 years ago. The knowledge of this amazing healing art was brought to the Western world in the 1600s by Jesuit monks, and it became fairly widespread in Europe. However, it has only become truly popular in the United States since the late 1970s.
Acupuncture works by stimulating the qi (chi) of specific points which are located on pathways or meridians all over the body. The blockage of qi in these meridians can cause pain and ailments, the acupuncture stimulation can help to eliminate the blockages and free up the pathways to ensure a smooth flow of qi. There are more than 400 points on the body where the needles can be inserted, but depending on your diagnosis, only 10-15 needles are inserted in one treatment.
Acupuncture for Pregnancy
Acupuncture can improve fertility by different mechanisms:
Improve the function of the ovaries to produce better quality eggs. Regulate hormones to produce larger numbers of follicles. Increase blood flow to the Uterus and Ovaries therefore increasing both Ovarian Sensitivity to gonadotropins and the Uterine Lining for implantation. Relax the patient to induce parasympathetic nervous system dominance. Lessen many of the unwanted side-effects of ART treatment. Mitigate the downstream effects of IVF stimulation in the uterine environment to enhance implantation and ongoing pregnancy rates. Decrease miscarriage. Improve semen densities in male factor infertility Enhance conception in ART cycles: IUI, IVF. Promote a healthy ongoing pregnancy without complications, and a healthy post-partum period.
Studies have shown that by using acupuncture you can improve your pregnancy rate. In one study done in Germany in 2002 showed that 42.5% of the women who received acupuncture treatment in conjunction with IVF treatments got pregnant, while only 26.3% pregnancy rate was reported for women who underwent IVF treatment without acupuncture. Other studies which have been done in recent years have also shown that acupuncture can improve pregnancy rate; especially if you are working with a Los Angeles fertility specialist to do IVF treatments.
Los Angeles is home to many qualified acupuncturists, state of California demands the most training for their acupuncturist in the nation, many acupuncturist who specialize choose to receive more training and a doctorate degree in their specialty. You will find that you can easily select one to help you with your fertility challenge.
