Dr. Donald King presenting Samantha Armstrong with the Service Award
On June 6, 2009 the Patchogue SDA Church had the privilege of having as the guest speaker the President of the Atlantic Union Conference, Dr. Donald G. King, and his wife, Dr. Lois King. Not only was the Patchogue Church uplifted by their presence and informative contributions during the Sabbath School lesson study hour, the church was honored by the president when he presented one of its elders, Samantha Armstrong, the President's Service Award in appreciation of her 10 years of dedicated work in the Patchogue community and church.
Pastor King's sermon "Keeping warm in a cold place" was in step with his mission in life which is "to inspire and motivate others to achieve Christian excellence and ways of wellness in their lives." The congregation, with intense concentration, drank in every word God inspired him that day to speak, words that were as water to "a dry and dreary land." The personal testimony given by Dr. Lois King regarding her life and how she came to the message was an eye-opener and brought a tear to more than one person's eye. The message was timely, demanded introspective reflection, yet, was encouraging. The hymn of meditation was a duet sung by Elder Earl Huie of Patchogue Church and Dr. Jennifer Huie of the Washington Avenue SDA Church in the Bronx.
Following the service, a fellowship luncheon was provided by the social committee that was truly enjoyed. The Kings exuded such warmth and genuine caring that many of the members expressed sadness when the King's had to leave. Even one of the next door neighbors of the church stated that they thought the King's were "family" of one of the church members by what she had observed. Praise God we are all part of the family of God.
May God use us to keep others warm in the light of God's love while living in this cold place until He comes.

We conducted an interview with Raymond Yiu, an electrical engineer turned composer, on his latest commission for the BBC Symphony Orchestra10·20·2012 Rachel Naquin (来秋)
An up-and-coming name in the world of contemporary classical music is Raymond Yiu (姚恩豪), a 39 year-old Hong Kong native who is currently completing his Doctorate in Composition at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama in London. What sets Yiu apart from the rest is his ability to effortlessly fuse different styles and genres to create a stunning final product. The Original Chinese Conjuror, Yiu's opera that debuted at the 2006 Aldeburgh Festival to a sold out crowd, combined aspects of Western jazz with elements of Chinese music, earning him the praise and recognition among the contemporary classical community.
Yiu's next endeavor is a commission for the BBC Symphony Orchestra. His piece entitled The London Citizen Exceedingly Injured draws on inspiration from Elgar's Cockaigne Overture and the classic nursery rhyme "Oranges and Lemons." In order to achieve his goal of capturing the essence of London in song, Yiu entwines samples of iconic British melodies with his music. The piece is set to premiere on January 18, 2013, at the Barbican under the direction of Long Yu, Musical Director of the China Philharmonic, Shanghai and Guanzhou Symphony Orchestras and Artistic Director of the Beijing Music Festival.
To gain more insight into the talented mind of Mr. Yiu, we conducted an interview.
The World of Chinese: When did you first start composing, and what inspired you to start?
Raymond Yiu: When I was a teenager I tried to write down my piano improvisations, but it was not until I heard the music of American composer Lukas Foss (1922-2009) – whom I eventually met – that I decided to become a composer. I was studying Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Imperial College at the time, so I must have been about 20.
TWOC: What has been the biggest challenge you had to overcome since starting your career as a composer?
RY: As I never studied composition formally before, it was almost impossible to get my music played at the beginning of my career. It was a while before I got to hear my music played for the first time. Until 2009, I was working full time in the field of information technology, out of necessity. Finding time and energy to compose after a long day of work in the office was one of the biggest issues I faced. As a result, I only produced one or two pieces a year, if at all. This has changed a lot since I started my doctorate at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama.
TWOC: Your spectrum of work is so vast. Where do you draw your inspiration from for so many diverse pieces?
RY: For me as a composer, there is no limit to what I can use as a source of inspiration. With each new piece that I write, I find subject matter that I feel is suitable for the force that I am writing for. For example, when I was asked to write a piece for the guqin (古琴, seven-string Chinese zither)and string quartet based on one of the best-known guqin melodies Youlan (Secluded Orchid), to be played by the guqin master Li Xiangting, my instinct was to keep the original intact. I want to go 'inside' the piece and to magnify the uniqueness and beauty of this music and instrument. The result, Jieshi (2011), is principally a version of Youlan framed by materials inspired entirely from my spectral analysis of a recording of Youlan made by Master Li. Due to the improvisatory nature of guqin music, the string quartet members are requested to carry out guided improvisation with materials provided, led by the guqin player. Even though it employs Western musical notation, the work has an entire set of rules unlike any other piece of mine or Western music. Its inspiration could only be made possible by the performing force which I was commissioned to write for.
TWOC: Which of your pieces that you've written so far is your favorite?
RY: To answer this question is almost like asking a parent to pick his/her favorite child. But if I have to choose one single piece, it will have to be my first stage work The Original Chinese Conjuror (2003-06), written for the 2006 Aldeburgh Festival, mainly because I went through so much to get it completed and staged. It was a summation of me as a composer at the time, and a sort of farewell as I did not write a single note for two years after it; at the time, I thought I would not compose again at all. Maomao Yü (2009) for piano and four Chinese instruments is a close second as it gave me the privilege to work with the amazing Lang Lang and the Silk String Quartet. Another reason for making it a close second was that the premiere performance was my first professional outing as a conductor.
TWOC: What makes The London Citizen Exceedingly Injured different from your other pieces?
RY: Besides The Original Chinese Conjuror, which is 70 minutes in duration, The London Citizen Exceedingly Injured is the most ambitious project that I have ever undertaken. Scored for a full symphony orchestra (88 musicians) and lasting about 15 minutes, it has one of the most intricate structures out of all my works; the amount of melodies and themes that I quote and reference – all related to London – outside and within the work is enormous. It is a love letter to my adopted home of two decades. Its unusual form and the playful nature of the quotations interacting with each other have led me to give the piece its subtitle, a 'symphonic game'.
TWOC: What are your plans for after The London Citizen Exceedingly Injured?
RY: Right after I finish The London Citizen Exceedingly Injured, I have to start work on a short variation based on a theme by the Polish Composer Andrzej Panufnik, commissioned by the London Symphony Orchestra to be premiered by them in April 2013. Then, a multi-purpose work for brass band and a little piece for solo percussion are to follow. Meanwhile I am looking for the opportunities and funding to continue developing my second stage work, Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio – based on the writing of Pu Songling (1640-1715) – with Lee Warren, who wrote the libretto for The Original Chinese Conjuror. After writing Maomao Yü and Jieshi, I would like to spend more time exploring the possibilities of Chinese instruments; a piece for Chinese orchestra is forming at the back of my mind too, but it will have to wait for the right opportunity.
If you're in the London area, then make sure to check out Raymond Yiu's not-to-be-missed The London Citizen Exceedingly Injured coming January 18th at the Barbican. However, with his big plans for afterwards, it seems like we'll be hearing about Mr. Yiu's work for a long time.

Parents should explain the differences between different religions and ideologies.
Then they should allow their children to decide for themselves what to believe or reject.
If you believe parents should bring up their children to believe a certain way without telling them about alternatives, I would love to debate you.
First off, a child is the parents responsibility. This means that the parent is responsible for teaching them anything that the school does not cover, and is responsible for the upbringing of the child until the point that the school takes over, and even on from that point. This means that religion is part of the parents curriculum, not the education system, nor any other system of learning. I believe that the child should be a model of the parent itself, and if the parent only decides to teach the children a certain religion, then that is the religion that is taught in that household. How is it the responsibility of you, I or the government to tell parents what they should teach their children in terms of their religion.
Also, most religions have a process where you confirm that you are part of the religion at a later date, mostly when you are old enough to think for yourself. This process in my church is called confirmation, and it is where you take a journey through the christian faith, learn about the faith you were born into and confirm whether or not you would like to be a member of that faith and the congregation.
These are my beginning points, and I look forward to a good and fun debate. Thank you.
A. First, allow me to detail that which I agree with in your first statement.
1. Parents are responsible for their children.
2. Parents are responsible for teaching their children anything they don't learn in school.
3. Religious teaching is the responsibility of the parents.
B. Now, I will detail two other points.
1. I am not arguing that a government should tell any parent how to teach their children. I am in favor of parents having the ability to homeschool their children. Although, I do recognize that a poor teacher is a poor teacher regardless of their relation to the student.
2. Also, I do not care if a religion has a process to confirm any of its maturing congregation. That is beside the point I am attempting to make.
C. My point still stands.
1. Parents should teach their children critical thinking. It is the obligation of a good parent to ensure their children know basic decision-making skills. They should do this regarding all decisions, but especially questions which do not have absolute answers.
2. It is morally wrong to tell a child an absolute statement which in reality is a mere belief.
3. I think that it disintegrates the child's ability to make coherent decisions because the child learns to accept things without thinking them through.
Now for my rebuttals. I would like to ask you how it is morally wrong to teach your child your religion? If a child is supposed to be a reflection of the adult then it should be the adult's choice to teach the child.
I would like to ask that if the parent teaches the child why a religion states what it states then it would not teach the child to accept things without thinking about them. It teaches the child to always ask why. As long as religion is taught in a loving and kind way to inform the child, and the child responds to the teaching then it is fine.
I would now like to move on to my constructive speech. I would like to first ask the question, Would you like to teach and parent a child that challenges the very core of your being and every word you say? No I would not. I would like to teach my child my religion, and take him to church with me. I would then have him/her critically examine everything within it and critically evaluate it. Religion is not hard and fast. Everyone should have their own reason why they have their religion and why they follow it.
If religion is defined as the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods, where you are taught certain morales and values ascribing to said religion. This means that religion is directly ascribed to morale values. Now I would like to again ask a rhetorical question, Would you like a child without the same morales as you? No I definitely would not. I would like my child to understand and follow my morales and values.
All of these facts and reasons are why children should be only taught the religion of their parents, as it is the parents decision what to teach their children. I look forward to your concluding round.
B. It is morally wrong to teach a child to ACCEPT a certain religion.
1. A child is pre-disposed to trust its parents in order to survive.
2. A child needs to be able to trust its parents when it is told do not touch the hot stove or do not play in the street.
3. That same trust can be used to manipulate a child into believing certain unknowable aspects of our existence.
4. I am strongly opposed to any manipulation of a child's pure trust in order to believe certain ways about currently unknowable things.
C. The decision to follow a certain religion or religious leader is individualistic.
1. Young children cannot make this decision.
2. Because young children cannot make this decision, they should not have it made for them.
D. It is important to teach a child about morality.
1. There are multiple ways to derive a personal morality.
2. Religion is one way.
3. Society is another way.
4. The different means of obtaining morality should be explained to children.
E. It is detrimental to teach a child that morality should be unquestioned because of a creed or code.
F. Decisions regarding how a child should be raised should not flow from the personal pleasure of the parent.
Thank you.
Even when children are told not to touch a hot stove, they often do. This demonstrates that children are not even as close to dumb as you think they are, and are more then able to think for themselves to a certain extent. Since this blind trust is, as I have proved, not there then you cannot manipulate a child based on blind trust.
One example of this is my friend, brought up a Catholic and sent to catholic school, who is now an atheist. Even though she was forced and only taught one religion she still turned out as an Aethiest, so this just shows that you can follow whatever religion you like, even though you were only taught one.
Now I agree that the decision to follow a certain religion is individualistic, but it is not the RIGHT nor the RESPONSIBILITY for the parents to take their child to all places of worship, in order for my 6 year old son, to think he knows about all religions, so that he can go to the mousque while I go to my church, and have one of us take him. NO! He will go to church with me, until he is no longer in my house. (This is a hypothetical situation, I am a student)
If young children cannot make this decision, why should it not be made for them until they can decide for themselves. Contracts are like this. Is religion not a little like a contract?! As long as it is not harmful and deemed for the minors benefit, church and religion is a good thing! I would like to point out, due to the new T.V. Shows and other things on television and that we see in society, it is not the greatest way to gain a morale code.
I would now like to unprofessionally scream at your last point. "Decisions regarding how a child should be raised should not flow from the judgement of the parent". SAY WHAT NOW!? So now, I cannot raise my child the way I want him to be raised, because why? Not really a reason, just people think that I am not fit to raise my own child. That nobody is fit to raise their child. If nobody raises the child then does the child not get raised? Will we have 50 year old babies as the population of the world, with no religion, and no thought?
I say NAY! I should teach my hypothetical child any religion and morale code I like, as his/her upbringing is left for me to decide!
In conclusion, I as side con must firmly state that I would encourage a con winning vote because every parent should have the right and responsibility to freely bring up their child in any way they like, allowing them to practice the religion with the parent, until they can practice what they wish! Thank you for this wonderful debate and I wish to debate with you further on!

I have reviewed this debate and I do agree that I wrote the wrong word there, and that I would have to restructure that whole argument, because of that word. That is an oversight on my side, and I would implore anyone that is voting on this debate to discount those final 2 paragraphs which that point is part of. Although I do not see it as a grade A straw-man, I do believe it is a straw-man argument upon careful consideration. I again apologize as I am also new to this site and new to logical fallacies in a way, it was not my intention to use a logical fallacy. Thank you for the debate, and I hope we can debate another topic one day. Again my apologies for the misinterpretation and I hope it does not tarnish the image of this debate.
You completely misinterpreted my final point in round three. Personal pleasure and judgment are two completely different things. It's a shame that you took issue with something that I did not even write. That was a grade A strawman argument. I am very new to this website, and I have quickly found most arguments boil down to semantics. I suppose that is the price we pay to debate online. I'll have to work harder to make the meaning of my words clear. Thank you again.

You wouldn't lengthily explain every different religion to a young child.
However, parents should explain that their way of thinking is one of many. Parents can provide the full weight of reasoning behind choosing their religion. Then they should offer encouragement to explore other religions and ideologies. When I say "tell their children about every different religion," I mean it in a very literal sense. They should convey to their children that there are other ways of reasoning and understanding.

They should teach their children to be critical of every absolute statement, especially their own.

[Download lyrics and chords for "Here For You".]
"Here For You" is my favorite song on Passion's 2011 album. Some refer to it as a call to worship. Possibly, but for me it is much more.
Call-to-worship songs are most often sung by the congregation to each other. Take "Sing To The King":
Come, let us sing a song, a song declaring we belong to Jesus; He is all we need.
This is different than "Here For You":
Let our praise be Your welcome...We are here for You.
Both songs are "we" and "us" songs, but the intended audience for "Here For You" isn't in the seats. It is Jesus, and this takes the song to another place.
The Spirit behind the song
Matt Maher, one of the writers, refers to it in two ways: a welcome song and a motivation song. The welcome part is pretty obvious; the motivation part a bit more intuitive.
Welcome Song
The appeal of this song is that as believers, our hearts long for Jesus. We want to experience his "breath from Heaven" and we want his Word to "move in power". And when that doesn't happen, our soul cries out – even when we don't recognize or acknowledge it.
Have you ever reached the end of your day only to realize you didn't acknowledge God? You didn't once ask him for help or for his Spirit to guide you?
What about this: Do you ever study the Bible, even journal, without first praying and asking God to guide your mind and your heart? I formerly did this all the time! I still do it occasionally. If I'm not careful I'll open the Bible with a cavalier attitude and write out my thoughts without ever welcoming Jesus to the conversation of my heart and His (represented through the Word).
But when I do, when I do welcome him to join me – whether it be approaching the Bible or walking into a conversation – in that moment I feel joy in my spirit. Something comes alive that is truly transcendent.
In the same way our hearts long and love to sing "we welcome You with praise".
Motivation Song
Matt doesn't refer to "motivation" as if to say the song is motivational (although that is a secondary byproduct). Matt is referring to the audience checking their internal motivation. As the psalmist preaches to his soul, "Why so downcast oh my soul? Put your hope in God!", so too are we taking inventory of our soul and correcting our motivations.
As we correct our motivations, may our hearts not be set on us. May our songs not fill time or warm up people to hear the sermon. No, let our "songs be a sign" that "we are here for You". We are not relying on a man behind a guitar or a man behind a pulpit. It is only "Your breath", Lord, that will "fill our hearts with Your life".
"I [imagined] an arena full people declaring 'God, there are a lot of different reasons we can be here, a lot of different motivations, but ultimately we are here.' And so we looked at this idea of a song welcoming God." – Matt Maher on the genesis of "Here For You"

Learn How America Conquers the Air!
If you ask any student even in elementary school why the town of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina is significant to American history, they will know the answer immediately. They will know that this was the place that Orville and Wilber Wright made the first working airplane and discovered that man could fly.
Today, with thousands of airplanes taking to the sky at any given moment and the experience of flying high above the earth as common as riding a bicycle, it seems that a world where men did not fly is as far away as the ancient Romans.
But we have to travel in time back to the days before the Wright brothers made their phenomenal discovery and the invention of the first aircraft when there was a time when it was firmly believed that man would never fly like a bird and indeed, man was meant to never fly but always be a terrestrial being. We can be grateful that the Wright brothers did not hold to that belief.
The date of that first successful flight was December 17, 1903. It was on that fateful day that Orville and Wilber successfully flew the first controlled, powered, heavier than air airplane.
This break through ranks as one of the greatest inventions of American history and in truth, one of the great inventions of all time as man had been dreaming of being able to fly as far back as we have primitive drawings illustrating that dream.

SwiftCheck – A Swift Library For Generating Testing Data
QuickCheck is an open source Swift library from TypeLift inspired by the QuickCheck Haskell library that automatically generates random data for testing program properties.
QuickCheck has a very concise syntax, and what makes QuickCheck different is that it can shrink test cases to find exactly what is causing a test to fail.
As the readme states:
What makes QuickCheck unique is the notion of shrinking test cases. When fuzz testing with arbitrary data, rather than simply halt on a failing test, SwiftCheck will begin whittling the data that causes the test to fail down to a minimal counterexample.
You can find SwiftCheck on Github here.
A great library for testing.

The top four cities in this listing have remained at the prime from 2000 – 2016. Grand Rapids rose to first place in 2016. Even the air vents underwent some severe designing, as they are elegantly crafted from carbon fiber and aluminum alloy, giving the interior a bit one thing extra that you could be be missing in different supercars. The center console or center tunnel as Ferrari calls it, is just not very overwhelming and has only the required components attached to it, just like the gear selector, and hazard warning buttons.
I chose to check Automotive Design as I wished to turn out to be a clay modeller and the course gave me the opportunity to work with this medium. I imagine that the enthusiasm and real passion from the lecturers is what made the programme so profitable for me. Since graduating I was supplied a job at Concept group worldwide the place I used to be employed as a graduate clay modeller. From there I went to work for Jaguar Land Rover as a contract clay modeller. After spending the best part of three years there learning my trade I moved to Munich, Germany and spent two years working for numerous satellite tv for pc studios engaged on behalf of the likes of BMW, Audi, Peugeot Citroen and Opel. Since then I moved to the USA, where I have labored in California for Subaru Research and Design and am at present in Oregon working for Daimler Vehicles North America.

Uber and LYFT are drive share companies and although there are others, these are perhaps the two most successful. One of the reasons for their success may have been due to the promotions they offered. If you view lyft first ride free promotions, you will perhaps see why. These promotions offer first time users, the opportunity to ride free and why this seems to have been such a successful promotion is because, once the passenger has taken advantage of the free ride, they are suitably impressed to use the service again. Perhaps the biggest advantage of using one of these services is the convenience as all they need do in order to organize themselves a ride, is enter the pick-up and drop off places into the app and the rest is done for them, no more waiting in the rain trying to hail a taxi. Once the app receives a request for a pick-up, it passes that information onto the company's drivers via their app on their smartphone. One of the drivers will then volunteer to make the trip, providing a quick and efficient service at any time day or night. The companies have plenty of drivers always available as many drivers want the opportunity the companies offer them, to make extra money in their spare time. Once a driver that possesses a valid driver's licence and a smartphone with the app, they can apply to be a driver for one of the companies and once they have been accepted, they are free to choose not only what hours they work but also which trips they accept. Whilst enjoying this freedom of choice, the drivers can still make as much as $35 per hour, obviously depending on whether or not they work during the peak periods. Although these drivers can work as few hours as they choose, there are incentives for them to work at least 30 hours or more in any one 30 day period. The incentives are in the form of bonuses of between $50 and $500 depending on exactly how many hours they did work during that period.
Apart from the convenience of just using their smartphone and the app they have downloaded and the fast efficient pick-up, passengers also enjoy another convenience and that is that they need never worry about having either enough or the right money for the fare, as the fare is always paid by debit or credit card information and the app, so get lyft coupons today and enjoy the convenience.
As is usual with most things today, there are some people that are not too happy about the success of the drive share companies and those people are the more traditional taxi drivers that are losing business to these new companies. The taxi have though enjoyed a lack of competition for many years and they made no attempts to improve their standard of service, something that the local authorities are well aware of when asked, by the taxi companies, to look into the legitimacy of the drive share companies.

Technology has introduced many things to us. However, it has also transformed many things, for instance digital marketing. There was a time when advertising on TV was the primary goal of all the companies many were unable to promote their products or services due to the higher cost. Digital marketing has already played an essential role in the last few years and the chances of its growth are even more, but we must not forget that more opportunity will always bring more challenges.
Digital Marketing Companies in India are focusing on the below mentioned areas to perform better.
Redefine research and strategies:
As the competition is growing day by day the traditional ways of working will not help you any longer. You will not gain anything by attracting audiences in bunches, instead, you must attract customer by targeting the most relevant audience.
Content will play a broader role:
Content marketing is going to play a much bigger role in the near future. You can retain customer by creating and curating relevant and valuable content with the intention of changing or enhancing consumer behavior. Good content marketing will make a customer to stop, read, think and behave differently. You must feel the difference between content marketing and the other useless informational garbage.
Video marketing is also essential:
Video marketing will be a key means to satisfy information and entertainment needs, may be a small business who doesn't include this source of marketing in there to do list will be in jeopardy. Even this will also help in enhancing your social media marketing as well through eye catchy videos.
Social media will grow even larger:
We all know how social media has grown drastically in last one decade. Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn are playing major role in digital marketing and this is not going to end soon. You can reach your target audience within time. In fact, author and social media writer Mark Schaefer estimates that by 2020, data will increase 600%, 75 % of which will be created by customers, not businesses. Cisco estimates that India alone will be double its internet user base by 2018, with an expected 526 million connected people. Eventually, we can say that social media would be the best platform to chase your customer.
In conclusion, we can say that digital marketing in India has a bright future, all business owners and entrepreneurs must focus on this new aspect of marketing.

April showers do bring May flowers. I think this is probably going to be the case here in New Jersey for the rest of the month. Even though my chosen source of weather is sunshine, I guess I will endure a month of rain just to get closer to the summer. This famous phrase was the inspo for this weeks Manicure Monday and I am absolutely loving all of the color. The base color is Zoya's Breezi.
What are you rocking for this weeks Manicure Monday? How often do you change your polish? I love a fresh start to the month. Leave a comment below or send me a tweet and let me know. Thanks for reading!

Shervin Gerami
Shervin Gerami is not your typical CEO. Sure, he trained at Harvard and Wharton. Yes, he oversees day-to-day-operations at TeleWorld Solutions and leads the company's product and service development strategy departments. And, of course, he's a proven entrepreneur, having previously founded and grown three companies in the IT, Internet, and Enterprise Mobility sectors, and been named an Entrepreneur of the Year finalist by Ernst & Young.
But Shervin is also a disruptor. When he sees the old way of doing things no longer works, he's quick to find a solution that fits the new world. In creating SmallCellSite.com, he has turned traditional telecom site acquisition on its head. He's unafraid to shake things up when status-quo no longer works. And he's just getting started.
Aside from all of that, Shervin can also bring the beat. He integrates elements into his EDM tracks in the same way he plans and navigates business, ensuring that the baseline is the best it can be, and layering in the sounds one-by-one to create a sick composition. In the boardroom, his baseline comprises stellar people. He layers in an open-minded approach to problem solving, a keen understanding of operator challenges, and deep technical and business expertise. Ultimately, he composes customer solutions unlike anything else offered by other wireless integrators.
In addition to harboring an uncommon and at times unsettling ability to create an analogy out of just about anything, he also collects superheroes. Does he see himself as Superman, Batman, or the Incredible Hulk? You'll have to ask him yourself.
Sales & Business Development
Robert Fuchs
Senior Vice President, Solutions and Partners
Robert has a deep history in wireless and networked communications, beginning more than 20 years ago when he served as advanced engineering support for Comcast Metrophone, which is known today by the less-wieldy name AT&T. Today, Robert is the Senior Vice President of Solutions and Partners for TeleWorld Solutions, leveraging the company's design, engineering, testing, and analysis offerings to provide value-rich solutions for clients.
Robert has a knack for developing client relationships in the communications industry. He's worked as a consultant and has been a team member at Sprint, Nextel and Omnipoint Communications (then T-Mobile). Robert is also a certified mixologist and part-time home brewer. Ask him about his theory on the origination of ancient civilizations while he whips up a concoction, Tom Cruise Cocktail-style. Just don't ask him to cheer for that Washington football team – he's an Eagles fan all the way.
Michael Inserra
Senior Vice President, Business Development and Strategy
Michael brings over twenty years of experience as a senior executive with measurable results in the technology arena, improving corporate performance for organizations across multiple departments at Fortune 500 companies including Bloomberg, Comcast, Nextel, and Sprint. Today, Michael is the Senior Vice President of Business Development and Strategy for TeleWorld Solutions, expanding TeleWorld's offerings into new markets such as IoT, M2M, smart cities, and the US Federal Government.
Michael is also an avid tennis player. Having played for Penn State University in his younger years, you can still find Michael out on the courts maintaining his love for the game. Just as tennis starts with love, Michael pursues his passions as a renaissance man in his love of the arts, history, and science fiction. In his spare time, he enjoys coaching his kids sports teams, entertaining company, drawing, painting, and science fiction. Leveraging Michael's creativity, he loves working on new technological solutions and loves the Art of the Deal. Michael serves ACE's on the tennis court – and in the board room.
Craig Hodges
Director, RF Engineering and Solutions
Craig comes to TeleWorld from Sprint's Custom Network Solutions group where thinking outside the box was the only way to think. From oDAS to in-building, small cells to macro site development, Craig has experience in all phases of network deployment. These experiences have enabled him to easily navigate between carriers, OEMs, and third-party operators, forging long-term relationships and generating new business for TeleWorld.
Having played basketball at George Mason University and professionally abroad, Craig developed a love of all sports. Residing in Southern California, he and his family spend most weekends hiking, surfing, swimming, and team sports. As a father of three, you won't find Craig lounging on the beach. He spends most of his free time coaching his children's many sporting events, although he did find time to get his MBA from the Graziadio School of Business and Management from Pepperdine University.
Bhupinder Mann
Senior Vice President, Engineering and Technology
Bhupinder takes care of end-to-end RF engineering services for TeleWorld—everything from standardization, network design, optimization, and capacity forecasting to HetNet strategy and design. He also manages the development of customized solutions for clients, including SON validation, capacity dimensioning and forecasting, and HetNet deployment and optimization.
Prior to joining the TeleWorld team, Bhupinder designed network solutions at Clearwire, Sprint, and Motorola. Not only does he have serious engineering chops; on a coffee or tea break (black with two sugars, please), he will talk your ear off about cricket and soccer (Germany and Borussia Dortmund). Think that's funny, do you? Good luck trying to make him laugh.
Jong-Hak Jung
Vice President, Design, Optimization, and Simulation
At TeleWorld Solutions, Jong-Hak Jung leads the engineering team focused on designing, building, and supporting 3G and 4G networks nationwide. He has more than a decade of experience in network design, optimization, and standardization in wireless, gained from positions at Sprint and Clearwire after graduating from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln with an M.S. in Telecommunications Engineering.
Though Jong-Hak loves network design, stick an Arnold Palmer in front of him and he'll gladly regale you of his latest outing on the links, which was "too long ago to remember" (last weekend) where he really didn't do "that well" (10 over par).
Scott Robertson
Vice President, DAS, Wi-Fi, Small Cells, and Enterprise
Scott is the leadership team's "Jack of All Trades." He has skills in engineering, project management, business development, and operational management. At the moment, he's putting those skills to use by leading operations for TeleWorld Solutions' turnkey DAS and Small Cell services and managing the company's DAS deployment team.
Prior to joining TeleWorld Solutions, Scott spent 10 years with Sprint and Nextel Communications. His telecom experience spans a broad range of industry verticals and venue types in both the public and private sectors. But, to be honest, we'd rather have Scott cook us a meal and play us a song — he's apparently composed more than two dozen of them.
Matt Dooley
Vice President, Technology, Benchmarking, Design, Capacity, Network Management
Matt works out of the Chicago office where he supports critical accounts and special projects. Matt brings more than 25 years of wireless experience to the team, including strategic planning, network deployment, vendor management, capacity planning, network design and optimization, and carrier certification for devices.
Matt gained most of his experience during an 18-year tenure at US Cellular. He loves Chicago sports (Blackhawks rule!) and Jeeps and vividly remembers when car phones were the height of wireless technological innovation (we secretly believe he's keeping one in the closet, just for nostalgia's sake).

Apr 9
So, Monday I wrote a little bit about taking God up on His invitation, no matter how weary you may be feeling to simply "come."
Yesterday's Jesus Calling reading dovetailed perfectly with the post (don't you love when that happens?) so I wanted to share a little excerpt with y'all:
"I am with you and for you, your constant Companion and Provider…when you feel far from Me, whisper My Name. The simple act, done in childlike faith, opens your heart to My Presence. Speak to Me in love-tones; prepare to receive My Love, which flows eternally from the cross. I am delighted when you open yourself up to My loving Presence."
There is SUCH power in the name of Jesus. When you feel far from Him, whisper His name and open yourself up to being in His presence.
Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you.
Genesis 28:15 (NKJV)

You know when you get so excited about something that you just want to tell everyone you know about it?
That's pretty much how I feel about this recipe.
Granola is a favorite in our house, but for various reasons I haven't made homemade granola "in a coon's age", as my husband likes to say.
So I figured it was high time I remedied that.
I was inspired by this Clean Eating Stovetop Granola, but wanted to try something grain-free (I'm still working on a soaked-oat granola recipe over here).
The result of my experimentation was delicious, and it didn't even take that much experimenting! That's always a plus.
Even though there's a LOT of coconut in this granola, it doesn't taste like a spoonful of dry coconut flakes.
Yeah, I'm happy too.
Coconut Stovetop Granola
So HOW much do I love this granola? Let me count the ways:
#1 reason: its super delicious!
2. Its grain-free. Enough said there.
3. Its not very nut-heavy, which most grain-free granolas tend to be; I generally feel better when I limit my total intake of nut flours, milks, etc.
4. I don't have to heat up the kitchen and check the oven multiple times; so good for the summer our AC is misbehaving!
5. Its low-carb. Low carb is not for all people, all of the time, but I personally love to start my day with healthy fats, protein, and veggies (not so much carbs). So this is the perfect little breakfast treat.
AND #6, its JUST. SO. SIMPLE.
I could probably list a few MORE reasons why this granola is simply the best…..but I won't.
In case you couldn't tell, I get pretty excited when my kitchen experiments exceed my own expectations. 🙂
So enjoy this grain-free stovetop granola! Perfect for a low-carb breakfast addition or a quick treat!
- 2 cups coconut chips like these (not shredded)
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts of choice (for nut-free, replace with more sunflower or pumpkin seeds)
- 1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds
- 1/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds
- pinch of real salt
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 tsp vanilla
- Combine all dry ingredients in a small bowl.
- Add coconut oil, honey, and vanilla to a skillet over medium heat.
- Simmer for a few minutes (enjoy the amazing smell of the vanilla!)
- Add dry mix, and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring constantly (or QUITE frequently).
- Remove from heat once you notice the coconut turning brown, and stir for about another minute as it cools.
- It will get much crispier the longer it cools.
- Enjoy a bowl with dairy-free milk of your choice!
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator (I love using a mason jar), or in the freezer.
- This will keep for at least a week in the fridge. I'm guessing a lot longer, but I'm pretty sure my last batch was gobbled up right around the one week mark. 🙂
Pin for easy reference later!
What's your favorite way to eat granola? Any favorite add-ins?

Aside from water, the world's most popular beverages are tea and beer.
That's not surprising because they're also among the world's oldest beverages.
Yet, with few exceptions, tea and beer have remained separate and distinct for most of their existence.
But that's about to change because Ineeka, a Ukrainian Village-based tea company, has rolled out Himalayan Green Tea Bier. The beer is an organic Belgian-style ale that marries beer with ginger and Himalayan-grown green tea from the organic, biodynamic and fair-trade farm owned by the family of Ineeka co-owner Shashank Goel.

Studio Space
Hello my lovely clients and brides!
I have a lot of out of town brides who book me, and I am beginning to book more and more boudoir shoots. I figured a blog post showing you my studio space would be appropriate! This way you can understand my style and scope out the studio to see what I'm working with. My studio is located in the heart of downtown Hammond– right on top of Tommy's Pizza. This is where I meet my brides, edit, and do occasional shoots! I use a mixture of studio and natural lighting to get the perfect shots for family, baby, senior, bridals, engagement, boudoir, and professional head shots. There are also MANY unique scenes around downtown in walking distance– from antique signs, rustic walls, train station, parks, etc. I hope you enjoy!

The son of creator and producer of the popular TV series Ryan Murphy, Logan, was born on December 24 – exactly on Christmas Eve. Happy Father made ??this official statement and sent out information to their relatives and friends.
Nothing is reported on how the child was born. Apparently, Murphy who married his partner David Miller in July, used the services of a surrogate mother.
Murphy posted a photo of his son on Twitter, accompanied by her gratitude for their support: "Thanks to everyone for the kind wishes. Logan is one week old and doing great. Happy new year!"

Do you remember Reading Rainbow? I loved that show. LeVar Burton, the host, would close every episode with some recommended reading, submitted by viewers. He would always say 'but you don't have to take my word for it' before they would cut to the reviewers.
It's in that spirit that I offer up some thoughts on 2018. What are some emerging trends and issues that you need to keep an eye on as you prepare to hit the ground running? I have tapped into the incredible talent here at AKHIA to find out–what are they seeing, every day, that they want to share with you? What are some issues they feel you absolutely have to be paying attention to?
Every day this week I'll share a take. These are all very relevant and definitely deserve to be on your radar. But remember…you don't have to take my word for it.
"Did we just become best friends?"
Olivia Tormento, Account Manager
The "one big thing" I think we'll see much more of in 2018 is even tighter alignment between sales and marketing.
Now more than ever, marketing and PR budgets are being scrutinized and challenged to directly tie back to ROI and the overall business goals. Because of this, marketing teams are realizing the importance of getting sales teams involved in the entire creation process early and often.
Marketing collateral and sales tools must ultimately be useful resources to those who are using them (sales) with customer and prospects. We as marketers are digging deeper to create materials that communicate the crux of customer pain points and provide information that helps solve their problems. And then, we're measuring their effectiveness with hard numbers that directly affect the bottom line.

OIG: No joint pharmacy deal for LTC facility and employee
OIG: No joint pharmacy deal for LTC facility and employee
In April, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Inspector General posted OIG Advisory Opinion No. 11-03, which stated that the partnership could have generated kickbacks. Neither the pharmacy nor the facility was named.
An OIG advisory opinion is sought voluntarily when a business wants to know whether a venture would violate fraud or abuse laws. The anti-kickback statute makes it illegal to pay for referrals of items or services reimbursable by a federal health care program.
Frederick Ball, the vice-chair of the White Collar and Governmental Regulatory Affairs Division of Duane Morris, says the decision is not a surprise. He did not represent either party, but has cautioned other clients that creating affiliated entities to provide services within a healthcare setting can be complicated due to federal regulations.
"The concern here was that the ownership structure would be an incentive for the long-term care facility to choose the pharmacy provider in which they had an ownership interest over another pharmacy provider," he says. "There are many potential pitfalls when you are talking about federally financed programs like Medicaid and Medicare."
The employee in question is a pharmacist currently serving as the company's director of business integration. He would have partnered with the LTC owners to create the new pharmacy and the owners would have received shares in proportion to their investments.
The new LTC pharmacy would have paid the sponsoring pharmacy $1.25 for each prescription and assumed the operating costs.

Protecting the Emperor with Royal Guard from Knight Models
February 20, 2012 by brennon
I always found that the Royal Guard were somewhat under-represented in the Star Wars films, so its quite nice to see these shadowy warriors from Knight Models.
Mysterious and loyal soldiers with a great stalwart look to them. And the best thing about these models is that they wouldn't need to be used as simply Star Wars models. Plenty of other uses?
What do you think?

New faces loom large in Oaks
NEW ORLEANS - The first four finishers from the Feb. 10 Silverbulletday will return in Saturday's Grade 2, $400,000 Fair Grounds Oaks. But anyone expecting to see a rerun of that race is probably in for a surprise, because there are significant new players in the Oaks and the pace of this 1 1/16-mile race should be considerably faster.
Octave will be making her first start since finishing second in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies.
"We've given her a little freshening after the Breeders' Cup," said trainer Todd Pletcher. "She's filled out into a beautiful 3-year-old filly."
Octave won her maiden at Belmont in her first start, then finished second in the Astoria before winning the Grade 2 Adirondack Breeders' Cup at Saratoga. She was second by a head in the Grade 1 Matron before her Breeders' Cup start.
A daughter of Unbridled's Song, she has been working at Palm Beach Downs in Florida since January.
"We feel like we've got her in pretty good shape," said Pletcher. "You'd like to have one more work into her, but generally our horses do pretty well off the layoff."
California invader Mistical Plan, who ships in for trainer Doug O'Neill after a victory in the six-furlong Sunshine Millions Oaks, is another new player who could have a say in the outcome.
Silverbulletday winner Appealing Zophie, who finished fourth in the Breeders' Cup after disputing the pace, also won the Grade 1 Spinaway at Saratoga as a 2-year-old. A daughter of Successful Appeal trained by Steve Asmussen, she began her 3-year-old campaign with a front-running score in the Silverbulletday. After running six furlongs in a slow 1:13.60 that day, Appealing Zophie had plenty left to repulse a bid from Total.
No one is expecting that kind of pace on Saturday, least of all trainer Tom Amoss, who has entered the sprinter Whatdreamsraemadeof.
"It's an aggressive spot to put her in," said Amoss. "We have a horse that we believe can make the lead in there, so we're going to make the lead and see how long she can last."
The promise of a hotter pace was good news for the connections of the other Silverbulletday runners who are back for this race.
Total, a late-developing Forest Wildcat filly, was making her first start around two turns in the Silverbulletday. She has progressed since then, according to trainer Al Stall Jr.
"She acts like she's more focused," said Stall, who added that her outside post will help. "I like that spot outside the speed."
Trainer Steve Flint is expecting more out of Silverbulletday third-place finisher Get Ready Bertie with a rider change to Edgar Prado.
"He's really good at adjusting to the situation as it develops," said Flint.
Trainer Wes Hawley expects Dawn After Dawn, who will again be ridden by Joe Talamo, to finish better than fourth this time.
"We tried taking her back," he said. "The rider didn't know whether to go or take back some more, and he took back, which I think was the wrong decision."
Smitty's Sunshine tops Bienville
Smitty's Sunshine is a Louisiana-bred who has been torching open company on the grass wherever she goes. After smashing a statebred grass allowance field by 10 lengths while still a maiden, Smitty's Sunshine lost her next two starts, both in Louisiana-bred stakes company. She has since reeled off three consecutive turf scores in open company, the most recent a trouncing of local sprinters in the Leggio Memorial here last month. She will face 11 rivals in the $100,000 Bienville.
"She hasn't done anything wrong," said trainer Morris Nicks. "It seems like the faster they go the better she likes it."

Island's 'in dire need of a gay and lesbian centre'
Professional drag queen Mark Anderson this week gave homophobic Bermudians a dressing down for being intolerant and hypocritical about gays.
He told the Bermuda Sun that Bermuda is in dire need of a gay and lesbian centre where homosexuals could go for counselling and sex education.
He said the need is greatest for teenagers who are struggling with their identity — but often have nowhere to turn.
Mr. Anderson was critical of married men who lead double lives. He said it's not right, but it's also more common than people think. "People end up getting hurt over it — especially the children. I think it's wrong."
He also said: "Since I've been back all those attracted to me have been married men."
Mr. Anderson has been back home in Bermuda for nearly two years although he still returns to the U.S .for gigs as a drag queen.
He hit the headlines last week when gombeys objected to him appearing in Wednesday's Bermuda Day parade as 'Queen of the Gombeys'.
H e said living in New York has made him comfortable with being gay.
He said Bermudians have a "stigma about anyone who is different". But they need to recognise that gays are not paedophiles — they do not prey on young boys.
He told of how he receives phone calls from young Bermudians who are in turmoil, but he will only meet with underage boys in the company of their parents.
"I don't want anyone to see me talking to kids," he said.
He advises them to speak to their parents or school counsellors.
But a centre would be best because gay teens, especially those from religious households, face hostility from parents. Some are even kicked out of their homes.

The Green Tea Fat Burner talks about helping you to get the ultimate way to lose up to 20 pounds fast. With Green Tea Fat Burner, you will finally be able to rev up your metabolism, burn fat, and effectively speaking lower cholesterol while achieving various other health benefits in general.
They claim that Green Tea Fat Burner has all that it takes to help you to achieve better results. But while green tea is a proven ingredients, there are plenty of frauds out there. So how does Green Tea Fat Burner actually work?
Green Tea Fat Burner ingredients include green tea, caffeine, and an essential vitality blend.
The Truth About Green Tea Fat Burner
Now they don't actually tell us what it is in this vitality blend. But outside of that, they have two ingredients that actually promote weight loss as compared to the countless ingredients that may or may not be in their essential vitality blend. And realistically speaking, those ingredients are unlikely to be at all related to weight loss. However, they do not actually bother using the clinically proven amounts of caffeine or green tea, which would be the most important part, not actually leading to any weight loss results.
Green Tea Fat Burner – Our Recommendation
We would definitely recommend that you use something other than Green Tea Fat Burner to get the results in weight loss that you are looking for. Green Tea Fat Burner does not actually have the right ingredients, the right amounts, or anything else, and there are various other reasons to choose something other than Green Tea Fat Burner when it comes to your greater weight loss results.

Among recent 2017 trends of hues, textures and material another trend is very much making a comeback, it's something where we possibly spend a third of our day...
The richness of browns and warm peaches often go unnoticed, these hues often generate the feeling of comfort, ease and indulgence. It can be as a large statement piece or even accent pieces within a home space. Warmer tones often bring comfort into homes, and currently stand as a popular trend during the colder seasons – from different oak finishes, to supple leathers and textured fabrics, the choices and combinations are endless.
As cork is a natural product, it enriches any interior with its warmth and soft nature. It can be used in many ways, on the floor, ceiling and walls. It can also come in a variety of colours, from its classic and familiar honey tones all the way through to black.
It doesn't matter if your place is large or small, plants make all the difference, they bring life and colour into a space. Bringing the outdoors in doors is not only a great way to freshen up your living space but they also introduce a new element into the room.
Here at Camerich we love our four-legged friends and welcome them into our showrooms when you come to visit. We understand the importance of maintaining your sofas and beds to the highest standard which can sometimes prove difficult when they are around!

More Physicians Seek Interventional Therapies for Acute and Chronic Pain; Top Pain Doctors Praise New Peripheral Nerve Stimulation System From SPR Therapeutics; Global Neuromodulation Market to Hit $7 Billion by 2018
More Physicians Seek Interventional Therapies for Acute and Chronic Pain; Top Pain Doctors Praise New Peripheral Nerve Stimulation System From SPR Therapeutics; Global Neuromodulation Market to Hit $7 Billion by 2018
CLEVELAND, OH--(Marketwired - Oct 5, 2016) - Pain physicians in the United States are turning to neurostimulation to treat chronic and acute pain in an effort to combat the opioid epidemic. The global neuromodulation devices market is expected to reach $7.07 billion by 2018, up 270 percent from 2011, according to a recent report by Transparency Market Research. Neurostimulation is a drug-free therapy that uses mild electrical pulses to activate and stimulate nerves to achieve pain relief.
"We're seeing a greater desire among physicians to use drug-free therapies such as neurostimulation for the relief of chronic and acute pain," said Maria Bennett, SPR® Therapeutics Founder, President and CEO. "Opioids have almost no long-term efficacy data and are known to cause abuse, addiction and death. Neurostimulation is a safe, effective treatment for sustained pain relief."
The annual cost of chronic pain in the United States is as high as $635 billion a year, which is more than the yearly costs for cancer, heart disease and diabetes according to a study by the American Pain Society. Currently, opioids are the primary treatment option for moderate-to-severe chronic and acute pain. However, innovative technologies like the FDA-cleared SPRINT™ Percutaneous Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) System from SPR Therapeutics, are offering physicians important drug-free treatment alternatives as attested to by the physicians below:
"As part of a study, the SPRINT PNS System was used on ten patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty. With SPRINT, patients reported average pain relief of 75 percent. Not only does this therapy help patients immediately with their pain, but by helping patients earlier in the pain continuum, we may be able to prevent acute pain from becoming chronic, which costs our healthcare system billions of dollars annually. SPRINT has the potential to revolutionize the way we treat pain." -- Brian Ilfeld, MD, MS, Professor of Anesthesiology, University of California San Diego
"SPRINT is demonstrating impressive clinical results for the low-back pain patients I've treated using the system. Patients find the system easy to use and the therapy comfortable. In the patients I've treated to date we've seen significant and sustained pain relief. One patient I treated had been taking opiates prior to device placement and I'm pleased that she is no longer using them to manage her pain. Results from a recent survey indicated that 61% of pain management physicians surveyed would use a therapy with the properties of SPRINT to replace opiates in their practices. We are in desperate need of better non-opiate therapies." -- Christopher Gilmore, MD, Clinical Associate Professor, Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center
"As someone who has been pursuing research in this area for more than 20 years, I'm very pleased the SPRINT System is finally available to my patients outside of clinical trials. Across multiple pain indications, 72 percent of clinical trial participants have experienced a 50 percent or greater reduction in pain intensity or pain interference with daily activities using SPRINT. Adverse events have included skin irritation, erythema, a blister, or a mild skin tear. The majority of the adverse events have resolved with little to no intervention and resolved within a few days, and none have been classified as serious. I'm delighted to see the lives of my patients and their families changed as a result of this novel technology." -- John Chae, MD, Professor and Chair-Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, Case Western Reserve University; Medical Director-Neuromusculoskeletal Service Line - MetroHealth System; Member - National Academy of Medicine (formerly, Institute of Medicine)
"SPR's percutaneous PNS is the right science at exactly the right time. SPRINT appears to be an effective and innovative pain-relief therapy that could provide hope to millions of chronic pain sufferers. If we are to find our way out of this opioid crisis, it is imperative that health insurance companies put patients first and reimburse promising technologies, including SPRINT." -- Peter S. Staats, MD, MBA, Adjunct Associate Professor, Johns Hopkins University; Chair, Board of Examination, World Institute of Pain; immediate past-president of the American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians
The SPRINT PNS System includes a threadlike lead and a wearable stimulator about the size of an Apple Watch® device. The lead is placed percutaneously, or through the skin, via a fine needle and connects externally to the wearable stimulator. The stimulator delivers electrical stimulation through the lead, which activates peripheral nerves to achieve pain relief.
SPRINT is unique in that it enables lead placement as far as two to three centimeters from the targeted nerve, allowing physicians to preferentially stimulate specific fibers of the nerve to maximize pain relief. This innovative approach to PNS does not require surgery or a permanent implant, meaning there is no tissue destruction as the system is designed to be withdrawn at the end of the treatment period.
A physician can place the system during a short outpatient procedure without anesthesia. Because SPRINT is minimally invasive and completely reversible, physicians may use it earlier in a patient's treatment process in an effort to reduce or eliminate the need for opiates and to avoid costly alternatives in managing acute and chronic pain.

SPR Therapeutics (www.sprtherapeutics.com) has developed a proprietary percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation platform intended to address the critical unmet need for non-opioid, minimally invasive, reversible, and cost-effective treatments for acute, post-operative and chronic pain.

Ja's Green, Blagrove top Reggae Marathon
Western Bureau:
Rupert Green and Karlene Blagrove produced telling performances to win the respective male and female titles at yesterday's 14th staging of the Reggae Marathon, Half Marathon and 10K road races in Negril.
The Reggae Marathon attracted more than 2,000 participants, including 91 year-old Montego Bay-born, US resident Louise 'Ms Lou' Estella Harrison.
'Ms Lou' covered the course in a wheelchair, which was pushed all the way by her daughter Linda Coy, before stopping within ten metres of the finish to walk across the line in one of the special moments of the marathon.
The Portmore-based Green completed the 26-mile course in 2:34:35 seconds, beating Latvian-born American Arturs Barekis (2:40:22) into second and last year's winner Gregory McKenzie (2:45:16) for third.
The winning time was significantly faster than last year's event, which McKenzie won in 2:40:45.
With last year's winner on the female side (Elina Junnila of Sweden) not returning to defend her title, a grieving Blagrove, who lost her mother to illness two days ago, showed tremendous grit and determination to win the women's marathon in 3:37:51, almost coming to tears after breaking the tape at the finish line.
She led home first-time participant Dana Martin-Kelly of Canada (3:50:34), with Bahamian Roberta Fontana third in 3:59:52.
Green had to overcome a hip injury he picked up early in the race.
"The guys kept it interesting all the way, but it seemed I hurt my hip early into the race, but I just had to keep my momentum going," said Green.
"It was a great course and very enjoyable run although I was feeling some pain. I am just very happy to come in first," he added.
There was a Jamaican sweep of the medal positions in the men's half marathon, with victory for Kirk Brown in 1:11:32. Jassette Bromfield was second in 1:16:29 and Lemar Leslie third in 1:19:16.
Switzerland's Melina Frei took first-place in the women's race, reaching the finish line in 1:31:06. She was followed by Jamaican Juliet Dinnal, 1:34:32, while Heather Calasuonno of Canada was third in 1:38:11.
local sweep
Dwayne Graham (32:57), Frith Obrian (33:05) and Daniel Glave (33:02) completed another local sweep in the men's 10K race, which was matched by the women, as Shanieke Watson (34:22) took first, Lisa Buchanan, 39:50 (second) and Danielle James (40:33), third.
Race director Alfred 'Frano' Francis called the event a complete success, having drawn runners from 35 countries to surpass last year's registration numbers.
Bellefield High took the high schools title in the 10K for boys. Their winning time was 34 minutes 46 seconds, with St Jago and Holmwood rounding out the other placings who posted a second winner in BOY WONDER.
Holmwood, however, had no match in the girls category, landing the equivalent 10K title in a smart 41:40. Vere Technical were second in 41:58 and St Jago third in 43:49.
