The Promised Land – The Bruce Springsteen Project
Bruce Springsteen is legendary. Famed for his passionate live performances, he is a songwriter par excellence. His work taps into rhythm and blues, jazz, early rock 'n' roll, folk and soul. His romantic, poetic lyrics evoke the lives of working people, the urban landscapes of New Jersey, and the heartlands of contemporary America.
The Promised Land takes us on a voyage to the 'promised land' of Springsteen's vision, drawing on albums such as Darkness on the Edge of Town, Nebraska and The Ghost of Tom Joad. The line-up features Liam Ó Maonlaí on vocals and piano; Steve Cooney on guitar; Nick Roth on saxophone; Robbie Perry on percussion and Trevor Hutchinson on bass.

There is no safety net
I was thinking the other day, how close I came to drinking a beer. I didn't have it in my hand or in front of me or anywhere near me, but I craved it as if the foam bubbles were popping in my face. I wanted the feeling because most the time beer tastes like crap, right? That fuzzy, warm feeling you get from head to toe that makes you not give a fuck.
And I wanted that because my Grandma Erna passed, even though, when I hugged her bye a few years ago, I knew it was the last time I would see her ever.
I wanted that beer despite almost 1 year and 7 months into my sobriety because she was gone, because I had no idea how to deal without her, because deep down, I'm an alcoholic...still.
And that showed me that even after all this time, all the time I invested in recovery, there was no such thing as a safety net of time. When I see people getting their coins at AA for so many months years, whatever, that all those coins are worthless. They ain't shit, I would rather have arcade coins.
There is no safety net.
My sobriety is a day by day thing, for sure.
Although I am proud of my one year and almost 8 months now, it ain't shit because my strength is not in that longevity. My strength is in my heart, my prayer, my pure want of a better and longer life. And in my support system, my children, my family, and my Wellbriety group.
The strength in numbers is not in length, but in quantity. In knowing there are those there for me, and knowing that I am not alone.

In an article in the April edition of Shape Magazine, Olivia Wilde said a couple of somewhat honest things about how she feels about her post-baby body. I like the chick, and I feel like she's been pretty publicly down to earth with a lot of stuff that goes down in her life.
Sooooo… I'm ignoring the fact that she looks pretty svelte on the magazine's cover, and I'm requesting that all you haters don't hate. The girl was skinny before, and she's skinny now. I mean, is it really surprising? Look at her jaw line—she obviously has a pretty svelte body type. In the article, the woman says, "I believe in a world where mothers are not expected to shed any physical evidence of their child-bearing experience." How can you hate that?
Again, ignoring the fact that if she really wants to see a soft stomach, she should poke me in my Pillsbury Dough Belly, I like how she talks. Out loud, in front of the world. Here's why:
- She talks about her vagina.
It's part of our body. We never talk about it, much less use the proper terminology. If we're really going to connect with ourselves, shouldn't we be able to refer to our best body part properly? (Cue the Fried Green Tomatoes women's strength class clip). Wilde is also candid about how she didn't really want to put her vagina back in action in the first few weeks of motherhood.
- She uses the word "soft" to describe her body now.
It conjures up warmth, femininity, and sweetness. It makes me think happy thoughts. Why do I want my body to be hard again?
- She exercises because it's fun.
If she was exercising to make her body perfect, well—then she'd have better things to do, she says: "I don't want to waste my time striving for some subjective definition of perfection." I mean, can we have a little applause? You're allowed to clap using just your index fingers. And to roll your eyes at me if you want (for even suggesting that this is a real quote; which it is, but…. yeah).
It's a start. I just wish the media didn't make such a big deal about this. I mean, here are some of the headlines:
"Olivia Wild Gets Real About Her Body: I'm a Mother, and I Look Like One"
"Olivia Wilde Says Some Pretty Real/Hilarious Things About Her Body"
"Olivia Wilde Opens Up About Post Baby Body"
OMG you want to talk real about your post pregnancy body? How about this:
- I gained 50 pounds with my first baby, lost 20 pounds upon leaving the hospital, and I have at least 40 more to go.
- I have moles that look like shooting stars because they stretched out and never went back.
- My belly button really shows the evidence from my old navel piercing. Except I've never actually had it pierced.
- I'm pretty sure my vagina is inside out.
- Stretch marks? Don't be fooled. They are scars, people. That look like you have been massacred by that knife the guy uses in the movie Scream.
- I have a thick, blue vein threatening to bust out through one 1/2-inch-wide "stretch mark."
- My cleavage now points down instead of up.
- There is no longer one plump cleavage line. It's two lines. Separated by about an inch. And did I mention they point down?
- One cleavage line is longer than the other.
- There is a weird puffy spot on the inside of my heel. On my foot. I'm pretty sure that is related to the pregnancies.
- I have one odd, curly pube now growing just under my belly button.
- Wilde did say, "Finally, you are ready to change out of sweatpants, but when you manage to button your jeans…the button clasp gets swallowed up and lost in your gelatinous Stay Puft Marshmallow Man belly." She's definitely right about that.
My post pregnancy body is also:
- Soft (in very nice and very not-so-nice ways)
- Weaker than ever in some spots, but stronger than ever in others
And that is my best attempt to say nice things about my post pregnancy body. But that's a different post for a different time.
I mean, maybe when we can have celebrities talking about how their vaginas weren't ready to see the light for the first few years of motherhood and admitting that they exercise because three rolls on their stomachs is three too many for their liking, we regular folk will be able to relax a little about expectations, but it's a start.

Accounting for Special Revenue Sharing Grants. A Human Resource Management Course Monograph. No. 2 in a Series.
Gunn, Sanford C.
A training course to introduce students to the problems and accounting methods for Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) programs should consider four major areas. Within these areas certain objectives should be met: (1) to acquire background knowledge on manpower programs and typical fund accounting procedures, (2) to understand the management control problems of not-for-profit (NFP) organizations, (3) to study financial accounting and reporting policies for prime sponsors and explore the conflicts with typical fund accounting procedures, and (4) to devise management accounting systems. A manpower specialist is an invaluable resource in the first area. "Management Control in NFP Organizations," by Anthony and Herzlinger, is recommended as a text for the second area comprising approximately one-half of the course. Although lacking a complete set of data, the CETA Activities Guide and Forms Preparation Handbook have been used successfully as primary documents for the third area. Lecture and handout materials on management accounting tools (the fourth area) are readily adapted from existing course materials. Students would benefit from designing a system to resolve an individualized management problem. (Bibliographies for each section are provided. Appendices include a case study for a flexible budgeting problem and an illustrative sponsor accounting system.) (YLB)

It's hard to start anywhere else than that speech. It's a scene that'll doubtless be remembered for years as not only a spot-on summation of the Doctor's post-Time War ideology and pacifism, but also as the definitive showcase of Peter Capaldi's talent. He's superb here, with a fiery and passionate turn that nails the Doctor's righteous fury with just the right helping of broken vulnerability to balance it out. If the rest of the episode had just been footage of Zygons slowly rotating, it would probably still have been a decent outing. Thankfully, there's plenty of good stuff elsewhere, with a fun pairing up of the Doctor and Osgood (or should that be Basil & Petronella?), and a stellar turn from Jenna Coleman, who crafts two very distinct performances in a great face-off scene. The ending is perhaps overly tricksy, but this is undoubtedly a stand-out episode, and one of the strongest of this season so far. 9/10
Ben (Assistant Editor)
Between evil Clara and the Doctor's passionate speech, The Zygon Inversion undoubtedly showed Capaldi and Coleman at their best. Capaldi felt more like the Doctor than ever before in this episode, with a mix of deep drama and fun with Osgood. The slightly trippy opening sequence was a great introduction, that kept the momentum and the tension going from the previous episode with added threats and also allowed Jenna Coleman to give a stand out performance, which may cause some of the haters to realise what we'll be missing when Clara leaves. As is the trend in series 9, we didn't get to see much Zygon action in this episode, which is a real shame, but although we never got to see a Doctor duplicate, seeing multiple versions of Clara and Osgood made this fan very excited. The chemistry between Osgood and the Doctor is always fun to watch and I for one was slightly relieved when she turned down companionship as I fear this would have spoilt the character. Whilst the boxes being empty was slightly predictable for the educated fan, the idea was nonetheless a clever one. Overall, Peter Harness has proved himself as an excellent writer, with a pair of episodes that showcase one of the show's best aliens and the incredible acting of the lead cast. However, this episode could have done with a little more Zygon action. 8.5/10
Jenna (News)
When I heard the Zygons would be back, I was very excited, but reasonably skeptical after the audience's less than stellar reviews of Peter Harness's last episode (Kill the Moon). But I found this two-parter smartly done and very thought-provoking.
In The Zygon Inversion especially, I think we're beginning to see massive hints at Clara's departure. I'm sure we won't know how everything fits together until she finally leaves, but I think Moffat and company have been leaving clues the entire season. The appearance of Bonnie revealed a dark side to Clara that we hadn't previously seen, and I'm not sure that's the last we'll see of it. Whether Bonnie will make another appearance or Clara herself goes dark remains to be seen, but I thought Bonnie was a clever decision on Harness's part. The Doctor has to reason with a face he knows so well, prepared to do things the Clara he knows would never do. In The Zygon Inversion, we really see how attached the Doctor has become to her. We've always known it, but watching how difficult it is for him to see her this way brings the point home. While the concept of the Osgood Box may have been a little too obvious, I thought it was a classic move the Doctor would make. His speech at the end about how changing, becoming better, and never having to make that terrible decision again, was a high point of the season for me, and ranks among the best of the Doctor's speeches in the revival as a whole, I think. Both Capaldi and Coleman were on top form, and I'm anxious to see how the rest of the series unfolds. 9/10
Andrew (News)
I had been greatly looking forward to this episode all week, The Zygon Invasion was highly enjoyable and everything seemed set up for a fantastic part two. Hopefully my opinion is a minority one because I thought The Zygon Inversion was poor and shambolic. Thankfully Peter Capaldi gave a superb performance throughout, but it really shouldn't have been left solely to him to put in such a massive amount of work and carry everything and everyone else through a somewhat empty piece of drama which lacked substance in several areas. Yes we got an incredible speech by the Doctor, Peter Capaldi excels, almost busting a gut as the Doctor expresses a harrowing and strongly emotional opinion on war, pinpointing the insanity of it from the point of view of someone who acknowledges absolute guilt for every worst aspect, stirring the conscience of his audience as he tells of the constant pain he lives with as a result of his actions and memories. I find this enlightening considering the events of The Day of The Doctor where the key actions which have caused this suffering are re-written. Clearly the Doctor still feels the responsibility of what might have been. Ten minutes of Capaldi brilliance are still not enough to salvage things. I feel there was a continual attempt to make the episode 'profound' and I think this backfired. So much felt awkward and kind of embarrassing were the episode to be offered as a showcase of Doctor Who. I am a huge fan of Jenna Coleman and Clara, but the effort to make 'Bonnie' evil by giving Clara a shrill and weedy voice (involving losing Coleman's cool northern twang) just didn't work. Compared to the action packed previous episode, some passages of The Zygon Inversion seemed wholly unnecessary. Was the potential revealing of all Zygons on Earth in any way dependent on a random individual being confronted in his Flat by Bonnie? Also, perhaps a minor irritation, but in my eyes Kate Stewart's pink 'Zygon mobile' just looked tacky and ridiculous - especially when it's linked to Bonnie's standard smartphone. Looking for positives, Osgood was a welcome addition in both episodes and I feel a bit of personal disappointment that she seems to have been ruled out now as a companion! 6.5/10
Bedwyr (News)
The uncomfortable feeling last week was even nearer the knuckle right from the start with a plane being blown out of the sky, just like a shocking news story which has dominated the media recently.
I liked the concept of a conscious person inside a Zygon pod, akin to a form of 'locked in syndrome'. However it allowed for the episode to become very Jenna Coleman centred. Coleman is a great actress and it's nice to see her given an opportunity to do something different. But it felt completely wrong for the Doctor to be squaring up against Clara, even a Zygon version. The Zygons themselves were under-utilised, with the exception of one tremendous scene in a mini mart and the distressing suicide of a peaceful Zygon. The ultimate conclusion boiled down to an intense game of Deal or No Deal with no payoff. The status quo was restored, there were two Osgoods, Zygons and humans still on Earth. So what did the story accomplish? Not a lot really.
The saving grace however is Peter Capaldi who was simply mesmeric. I'm starting to run out of superlatives for his consistently supreme performances. That speech immediately goes down as one of the greatest delivered by a Doctor. At a time when Doctor Who's position in the schedules is being debated I'm getting concerned that the show is going away from it's traditional family viewership. This season more so than others has delivered episodes which are very dialogue heavy and with less action, alienating the younger members of the audience. As an adult I'm all for this to continue and an 8pm broadcast time would also be appropriate. In the meantime, this story was gripping, intellectually stimulating and deeply political. I just wish we had more Zygons! 7/10
Patrick (News)
Last week, we had a battle of strength, a globe trotting adventure with the re-emergence of the Zygons, and all in all a very successful resurgence for the shape shifting suckers. The final part of this next two part arc takes the fight to the mind as the more thought provoking brother. IZII is exhausting, not due to a sense of the underwhelming, but because the episodes themes, and the way Harness and Moffat tackle them, left me racking them in my brain long after the credits roll. The episode starts off with a little inversion of its own as The Doctor and Osgood jump from the plane as Bonnie's (Evil Clara) rocket closes. This was a moment I feared one stem into the cliche; the TARDIS materialises, the missile misses etc, yet I was left satisfied by their orthodox escape. This was likely due to the clever incorporation of Jenna's real Clara, connected to Bonnie via the link needed by Zygons to maintain the deception. Witnessing Clara's psychological manipulation of Bonnie was a wonderful sci fi twist I did not see coming; it is exciting to finally see Harness's deep and clever ideas executed to their fullest potential after the disappointment of KTM. The minimalism of IZII, juxtaposed to its excitable, energetic older brother, will likely be the contention point as time goes on. Some will wish for the continuation of the action that drove IZI, but for those on my side of the fence, having two very different parts served the two parter as a whole better than a direct tonal progression. I can not summarise IZII fairly without addressing the truly incredible speech given by Peter in the episodes conclusion. I am not being hyperbolic when I say this speech stands near the top of The Doctor's greatest monologues, a prestigious list indeed. It has been a long time since my eyes were glued to one character's delivery and my jaw dropped; every word was delivered with a passion that only an actor in love with his work can produce. You could see memories of the Time War burning in his eyes as he chastised Kate and Bonnie, ultimate weapons in front of them. As a continuation of DOTD, it excels; as a single delivery, it demolishes everything seen or heard this series so far. Capaldi continues to cement S9 as his flagship series, yet the return of Osgood can also not be understated. Rumours of her picking up the torch from Clara have been stoked ever more, particularly when hers and The Doctor's interactions felt like those of a long standing companion, however her fandom of The Doctor raises doubts about how interesting long periods of time could be together. With two Osgoods now defending the Earth, the possibilities are set in place. All in all, IZII caps another superb story, finally establishing Peter Harness as Doctor Who's premier psychological thriller scribe. 9/10
And the average score, with Owen's score counted in, comes to 8.21/10. That's slap bang in the middle of our team's Series 9 leaderboard:
- The Magician's Apprentice - 9.25/10
- The Girl Who Died - 9/10
- The Witch's Familiar - 8.92/10
- The Zygon Invasion - 8.7/10
- The Zygon Inversion - 8.21/10
- Under the Lake - 8.2/10
- Before the Flood - 8/10
- The Woman Who Lived - 7.5/10
Our spoiler-filled team review of Sleep No More will be up next Tuesday.

Are your lips thin or poorly defined? Do you desire fuller and more luscious lips? Lip Enhancement with Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Filler is the answer for you.
Lip enhancement is a safe and minimally invasive treatment to give you natural-looking, soft, smooth and fuller lips in just 30 minutes. The results will usually last between 6-8 months.
Lip Enhancement Treatment Summary
Procedure Time
30 Minutes
Back to Work:
24 hours
Topical or Regional Nerve Block
Full Recovery:
48 hours
Immediately visible – will improve with time
Duration of Results:
6 – 8 months
Common Side Effects:
Bruising and swelling
Key Facts
Who should have Dermal Fillers?
Lip Enhancement is a perfect treatment if you are looking to enhance the volume, shape and definition of your lips, irregardless of your age.
How do I prepare for Treatment with Lip Enhancement?
You will be asked to minimise or avoid the intake of alcohol, Vitamin E, Fish Oil, Garlic, Gingko Biloba, Ginseng, Green Tea. This will help to reduce bruising after the treatment.
What does Treatment involve?
Lip Enhancement Treatment involves very small injections of a naturally occurring sugar known as Hyaluronic Acid into the body and borders of the lips. The needles used are very fine, and only a small volume is injected at a time.
How long does the procedure last?
Most procedures will take up to 30 minutes.
Is the treatment painful?
The discomfort experienced by the patient is quite minimal and generally well tolerated. To aid in reducing discomfort during the procedure, you will receive a local anaesthetic "Field Block" which will numb up the lips.
What results can I expect?
Lip Enhancement will improve the shape and definition of your lips. It will plump and moisten the lips and help redefine the shape and fullness that has been lost with ageing. Dermal Fillers will also lift the corners of the mouth, reduce lip lines (smoker's lines) and enhance the border of the lips. With the development of newer dermal fillers, lips will generally feel soft and natural to touch, with an adequate amount of plumpness. Older and more rigid dermal fillers will last longer but will be firm to the touch.
It is very important to avoid injecting too much filler to avoid the all too common "Duck Look".
When can I resume normal activities?
Patients can return to normal activities immediately following the procedure.
When will I see results?
Results are seen immediately following treatment but will continue to improve with time as the hyaluronic acid absorbs water and any bruising or swelling settles down.
How long will the results last?
Generally speaking, lip enhancement with dermal fillers can last between up to 6 months and sometimes longer. However, this will depend on the type and amount of dermal filler used and how fast your body breaks it down (body metabolism). Our doctors and nurses will discuss this in further detail at your initial consultation.
How do I maintain my results?
After your initial treatment, a follow up session will be organised at 2 weeks. At this visit, the doctor will ensure that you are happy with the results. The symmetry and fullness of the lips will be assessed carefully and if further lip enhancement treatment is required, this will be discussed on the day.
What are some of the side effects of Lip Enhancement Treatment?
The most common side effects are bruising and swelling. This will settle down with 24-48 hours. With newer generation Hyaluronic Acid Fillers, the bruising and swelling is much lower. Ask the doctor about the latest in Lip Enhancement during your initial visit.
Cautions and Contraindications
You should not have this treatment if:
- There is any type of infection on the face (Herpes, Bacterial)
- You are allergic to any of the ingredients
- You are pregnant or breastfeeding
Full list of side effects, cautions and contraindications will be discussed at your initial consultation.
Most patients will require very little aftercare.
If there is swelling or bruising, the lips will be iced for 20-30 minutes following the procedure
Lip Balm will help prevent dry lips initially and we will ask you to avoid make up and lipstick for the first 12-24 hours. We will also ask you to avoid heavy exercise and direct sunlight for 24-48 hours.
If you feel any lumps, you will encouraged to massage these 2-3 times a day until they have resolved. If the lumps persist, you may need to see the doctor or nurse for review and possible correction.
As with all Hyaluronic Acid Fillers, Lip Fillers can be dissolved fully if necessary

It's already well into winter here in the U.S of A, so this post is kind of late, but that doesn't mean it won't be helpful to some. Sometimes what prevents people from running out in undesirable weather conditions is because they don't have the proper gear for the occasion.
Running in cotton t-shirts in the heat of summer is not optimal for many which is why moisture-wicking running shirts are so popular. In the winter, t-shirts are obviously not going to be the only clothing worn (for the most part), but even long-sleeves are likely not going to be enough to prevent the cold from settling into your bones.
When I made the transition from 5k's and 10's to long-distance running, training in the winter became something I now to be a bit more particular about. It's one thing to run 2-3 miles on a treadmill to avoid the cold. It's another to run 10 miles on one. The same goes for running outside in the cold, rain, or snow. Long-distance running and training meant that I needed to be properly equipped to take on the conditions that may Mother Nature set forth for me and that meant being smarter about my running gear.
The following section includes my five items that, for me, are essential for winter running. Without them, I likely wouldn't be as consistent with my training as I've learned to be and I most certainly would not enjoy winter running nearly as much.
Thermal headband
The headband is essential. Like…very essential. We all try to layer up in the winter because we want to stay warm, but because heat escapes through whatever is not clothed, wearing something on your head is kind of necessary. I don't need a full on beanie, personally, but my ears do need to be covered and it helps that my forehead gets to stay warm as well. I've had this Nike thermal headband since high school and it's travelled with me so many places, I have no idea how I've never lost it. Yikes…please tell me I didn't just jinx this!
Heat would escape the body through the hands as well—just as explained above—but this isn't really why I wear gloves. I wear gloves not because I want to keep the heat inside my body, but rather to keep my fingers from becoming painfully numb. I know what you're thinking: How can they be numb and yet I still feel the pain? Let's just leave that one be, shall we?
I have two pairs of gloves for running. The ones here are my heavy duty gloves I bought a couple years ago when my old gloves could no longer keep my hands warm on a 20+ mile run in the bitter cold or snowfalls of New Jersey. I still kept those older gloves though (again, I've had them since high school) and I'm glad I did because I don't really need the heavy duty gloves while here in Portland…not yet, at least! I highly recommend you invest in a good pair (or two) of running gloves if you are running or planning to run regularly. Your fingers will thank you.
Winter running jacket
The old soccer warm-ups were no longer cutting it. It's crazy how much I'm just realizing how much my wardrobe/gear has changed since transitioning to running longer distances. I used to run in soccer warm-ups all the time and be just fine. But two years ago I got a gift card for Dick's Sporting Goods for Christmas and I decided a top-quality cold-running jacket was what I needed most and I'm so glad I made that decision. This Nike Storm-Fit is the best winter apparel item I own and I wouldn't have made it through half of my winter runs without it. It cost a pretty penny, but it was worth it. If you are on a budget, do some research (this includes reading reviews) and try and find a good winter running jacket that is appropriate for use in the temperatures you'll be running in…That's right: they aren't all made for a one-size-fits-all winter. This Nike one has a bit of ventilation so I don't get overheated, but not to the point where I feel any cold air coming through. And I bough it in orange for the extra visibility. 🙂
Very good moisture-wicking long sleeve
A good long sleeve is also essential. A clutch winter jacket is important, but not every run requires one. Sometimes all you'll need is a long-sleeve to go under a lighter jacket or your favorite running tee and you're good to go. When those times come, it helps to have a go-to long sleeve that wicks moisture away from your body (this keeps your body from being overheated, but also from being chilled from wearing a wet shirt) and is comfortable for faster runs as well as slower, longer ones.
My go-to is surprisingly from a brand I've only ever found at Marshall's (Hind) and boy do I love this shirt. I wear it in the dead of winter as well as when the seasons are transitioning from warmer to colder and from colder to warmer temps. It was a cheap buy, but one of those rare gems that you are so proud of yourself for finding!
I never used to wear a light when running, but that's because I didn't need one. I could run my 3-5 miles in the daylight no matter the time of day and keep it during daylight hours. Nowadays, a long run can have me taking off before the sunrise or have me still trekking through when the sun starts to set or after it's already dipped below the horizon. Just as you get annoyed when a car doesn't have its lights on when driving, so too do drivers get annoyed and downright angry when they don't see you because you have no reflective gear or lights. Safety is important. Purchase a light and/or good reflective gear. There's really not much of an excuse, especially if you are a runner of the darkness. This light by Nathan cost me $10 at a local running shop (Foot Traffic) here in Portland. It clips on to almost anything. It's light and doesn't bounce. And it has a bright still-light and an option to have it strobe.
Gear up and enjoy the winter running. Could you tell that I like running with something orange?
Oh, and I figured I'd share my favorite online store for running apparel and gear: www.RunningWarehouse.com
Happy Running!

Also there is loads of work involved, far more than we all thought ( not just me!) and I am looking at the diary and wondering how I can double up time to make 14 day weeks, for the next 15 weeks,
Maybe think I have taken on more than I can cope with this time. A lot of my adult teaching is with "drop in" parents and children on environmnetal play and craft sessions which makes sorting out a schedule for being assessed for the course a bit of a challenge!

Extra Inning Loss Eliminates Travs from First Half Race
June 17, 2017 - Texas League (TL) - Arkansas Travelers News Release
Springfield, MO -The Arkansas Travelers were eliminated from first half playoff contention on Friday night, dropping a 4-3 decision to the Springfield Cardinals in 11 innings. The loss puts the Travs four games back of division leading Northwest Arkansas with three games to play.
The Travelers never led but rallied to tie twice in a chaotic game that witnessed a combined 39 base runners but only seven that crossed the plate. Travs' starter Lindsey Caughel battled his way through 5.1 innings while dealing with 11 runners but only allowing two runs on seven hits. He set season highs with six strikeouts and three walks. Cardinals' starter Zac Gallen worked 6.2 innings of one-run ball in just his third double-a starts.
After Springfield scored in the first, Arkansas tied it in the sixth on Dario's Pizzano's RBI double only to see Springfield retake the lead in the bottom of the inning on a two out RBI double from Magneuris Sierra . After a Jacob Wilson homer stretched the Cardinal lead in the seventh, Marcus Littlewood answered with a tying two run blast in the eighth for the Travs.
Springfield nearly won the game in the bottom of the ninth. They loaded the bases with no one out following a triple from Sierra and two intentional walks. Blake Perry got out of it though with back-to-back strikeouts and a groundout. The Cardinals got the game-winning hit with two out in the bottom of the 11th from Dickie Joe Thon on a grounder that tipped off the glove of the diving Jeff Kobernus and trickled into right field scoring Bruce Caldwell .
Both teams missed the opportunity for more runs. Springfield stranded a total of 15 runners on the night including nine in the game's opening four innings and they were just 3-19 with runners in scoring position. Arkansas stranded a total of 13 runners including leaving the bases loaded in the seventh and eighth innings and they went 0-9 with runners in scoring position.
Ian Baker (2-1) earned the win from the Cardinal bullpen with 2.1 scoreless innings. Thyago Vieira (2-2) took the loss for the Travs after surrendering the run in the 11th.
The Travs and Cards wrap up this series with a 6:10 first pitch Saturday night. Right-hander Justin DeFratus (2-1, 5.19) starts for Arkansas opposite righty Dakota Hudson (4-3, 3.12) for Springfield. The game will be broadcast on the Sports Animal 920, the First Pitch App, TuneIn radio and milb.tv.

Manage distribution and production warehouses – Gain visibility to production logistics
Dynamic, Synchronized Warehouse Material Management Solution Epic Data's Material Management System, (MMS) is a comprehensive application that can manage both distribution and production warehousing facilities. Simple product configuration allows the same MMS transaction set to be used to accurately and efficiently fulfill customer and production orders. MMS provides real time visibility, auditing and control of the movement and location of the physical inventory so that warehouse operators have immediate visibility when they need it.
MMS is designed to complement ERP systems. It fully supports the ERP processes and information needed for the financial management of the inventory while delivering a rich set of features that will maximize the operational performance of the warehouse. Capabilities include order picking prioritization, picking route management, wave picking, trigger-based automatic cycle counting and synchronization of order fulfillment to production activities.
MMS is for companies constantly trying to eliminate waste and improve warehouse processes in order to provide 100% accuracy and on time delivery to their customers. Key features of MMS include:
Dynamic response to change. MMS allows managers to effectively respond to changes in demand, supply, logistics and operational requirements. Users have real-time visibility into current warehouse status and material locations. Users are able to quickly see the impact of unforeseen situations and optimize fulfillment plans given the new reality.
Real-time visibility and integration to production logistics. To keep production lines running smoothly, the flow of materials to the lines must be managed constantly.
This means knowing where materials, parts, sub-assemblies, moulds, dies and other production materials are at all times. Whether at an external supplier, a subcontractor, another production plant, a warehouse or at line-side, MMS instantly tells operations and shop floor workers where their parts and materials are.
Unification of push and pull line-side replenishment methods for production. MMS facilitates coordination between Planning, Supply and Demand. Overlying traditional "Push" constructs, MMS' demand-driven "Pull" injects Kanban pull signals at the point of consumption to link requests from the demand point to the appropriate fulfillment points.

Hawaii Military Life: Live On Base or Off Base?
I know how challenging a DoD move to Hawaii with a family can be, since I did it a few years ago myself. I also regularly help military families moving to Hawaii find homes, so I learn from their experiences. A military move to Hawaii can be mind-boggling. It's an OCONUS post, but still a state, so it seems to fall into a no-man's land of rules and planning. Trying to decode which parts of the Joint Travel Regulations apply to Hawaii can be an education in itself.
Where are you going to live: on base or off base?
To live on base or off? That is the (first) question.
The Argument For Living On Base
If you just can't bear to be in a car for more than 10 minutes, living on post is for you. Nowhere on Oahu will be as short a commute as on post.
Living on base is comfortable and familiar. Commissary, BX, gas station, school, post office, parade field, flagpoles, and neat rows of buildings where no one walks on the grass, let alone parks a car on it. "Reville" in the morning and "Taps" in the evening. I get it. With the exception of the little beach on Hickam, at any post on Oahu you may as well be at Ft. Sill.
Schofield Barracks
The style of housing you'll be offered on post will feel familiar also. Most of it was built of similar quality to the last post you came from – no bells and whistles, but probably clean and functional. Some housing is newer, a result of the BRAC money, and some is older and due for rehab. There are plenty of websites where you can check out the housing – such as the Island Palm site, the base websites, or the Facebook group "Moving House for the Military Spouse," which has user photos of base housing worldwide.
MCBH Kaneohe
Living on post also offers the familiar social scene…and you know what I mean. Everyone's in the same boat, speaks the same language, has kids that are skilled at making new friends, and have never met a doorbell or a fence in their life. If you want to jump into a ready-made community, it's available.
No commitments. At the end of the day, living on base is just like paying rent. You'll give up your BAH to a landlord – Island Palm, Hickam Communities, or Forest City. You'll often pay your share of utilities, you'll call someone to fix things that break, and you'll de-personalize and paint the walls back to white for your move-out inspection. You'll leave in three years and it'll be like you were never here.
Except that you'll have missed an opportunity.
The Argument For Living Off Base
It's nice to get away from work once in a while (or often). In Hawaii, that's particularly easy to do. Drive off base and head to a beach, or off on a quick hike, or into town for umbrella drinks at a resort. Heading home can be very relaxing if you live away from work. Pass by waterfalls on the way from Hickam to Kaneohe. Exit the tunnels of the Ko'olau Mountains facing a spectacular view of Kaneohe Bay. The office you left behind may as well be on another planet. Get away in a way you never really do when you live on base.
You're most definitely welcome here. People moving to Oahu often wonder if they'll fit in or feel welcome if they live out "in town." Oahu is absolutely a melting pot of cultures and languages, which is often more a source of comedy than tension. And Hawaii has a history of imperialism and capitalism that has left some hard feelings.
However, the military community and the defense industry are an integral part of this island's culture, lifestyle, and economy, and have overwhelming community support. You can't go anywhere on Oahu without seeing military stickers on cars, service members in uniform, or being offered a military discount. So, yes, you're welcome here.
Endless options. Let's face it, a lot of military families are not coming to Hawaii by choice. And while I understand Ft. Bliss summers or Ft. Drum winters may be more attractive options (???), Hawaii will be what you make of it. So, you may as well try it!
Living off base, you will feel like you live in Hawaii. Maybe you'll be able to afford to live within walking distance of the beach, or you'll be able to look out at the ocean from your lanai, or you'll have a great hiking trail or golf course nearby, or meet a neighbor and trade your avocados for their papaya, or find a great sushi spot right outside your condo. There are so many options if you're open to them.
Off base you'll have the option of renting or buying a home. There are many factors to weigh, but the primary difference is financial. With a VA loan, you can purchase a home putting nearly no money out of pocket, and your BAH is then put toward paying down your mortgage. This means you're paying yourself instead of paying a landlord, and as the market improves, your home is also gaining in value.
Bottom Line
You'll have plenty of opportunities in a military career to live on base, and I absolutely understand the tendency to play it safe. But, I would highly encourage you to get out there and try something new, experience this place fully, and embrace your time in Hawaii. You may even fall in love with it and choose to extend your tour or return for retirement.
Hickam AFB
As a side note, planning ahead for which housing you'll be offered seems to be pretty fruitless. In the summer months, housing is in high demand – wait lists are long, but they turn over quickly if you're willing to be open to various locations and put your name on several waiting lists.
Let's face it, given the options, everyone who is eligible would choose to live on Hickam. The housing is nicer, it's centrally located to both the city and most duty locations, and it has a beach, so if you're a lower priority applicant, count on a longer wait. I recently worked with the family of a non-Air Force O-6 who showed up expecting to live on Hickam, but was told it would be a 6-12 month wait. And in the meantime…good luck was all they were offered.
Now that you've decided to live off base, the question becomes to rent or to buy?

The murder of a Priest in Normandy is the latest in the series of terrorist attacks either inspired or directed by ISIL in the West. The frequency and audacity of the violence is unprecedented. This is not to say that Muslim majority States have been spared, most notably Turkey. However, the pattern and type of attacks on Western European targets has a clear and crude intent behind it, and one which we as a society and civilisation, at times are helpless at circumventing. It is hoped that highlighting it will bring some objective and rational common sense to associated policy discussions.
The principal elucidatory question to pose is why France has been at the brunt of the most attacks. The answer should be rather axiomatic; France has both the largest Muslim minority as well as the worst socio-economic and religio-cultural rift between it and the non-Muslim majority in Europe. Hence France provides an appropriately tense and volatile setting to fit ISIL's twin aims in their indiscriminate targeting of civilians of all colours and religions: to sow and increase discord between Muslim minorities and non-Muslim majorities; and spur a greater desire in disaffected Muslims to flee to ISIL's pseudo-State.
The most recent attack in Normandy, while the tears from Nice have not yet dried, has reached a new low, yet made ISIL's intent even clearer. An attack on an elderly man of religion in a place of religious worship. Even by the most twisted, distorted and ill-informed of religious views, it beggars belief how any justification or legitimation could be attached to such an attack. The only insight that can make sense of it, is the attempt to inject and provoke a religious element to the pre-existing inter-communal tensions. Ironically, it serves both far right fascism (like Brevik's) and the religious fascism of ISIL to manufacture the self-fulfilling prophecy of a grand apocalyptic clash of civilisations.
Not only is our desensitisation to grotesque murderous acts saddening, but the chorus of predictable responses from Muslims generally has become tired and predictable. While it might be true that enactors of such violence may have personal, social and mental issues as well as not being in the slightest religiously observant. Further still they do not perceive Islam as a spiritual phenomenon that defines their relationship with the divine and propels them towards the common good and benefitting their fellow humans and neighbours in society and community. Such a disassociation of the culprits from their own stated motivations, which to them appear to be religious, does little to mitigate the ensuing rampant Islamophobia or provide a counter-narrative to claims that assertions that such events and people have nothing to do with Islam of being oblivious to the elephant in the room.
The objective reality, as always, lies between two extremes and defies over-simplification. These brazen attacks on our way of life and our prized and cherished liberal values of tolerance and diversity are little to do with a religion that is dependent in its manifestation on its adherents. To say there is a problem with the religion is a meaningless statement, because the meaning of the religion itself is determined by the interpretation of groups and individuals. The more accurate and relevant question to ask would be which group do we take issue with.
It is ISIL that wishes for, inspires and directs death in the name of religion, but neither their aims or means exude any whiff of religiosity. They consider all Muslims who have not given allegiance to their leader as apostates, hence care little of Muslim deaths in attacks on Western societies or en mass in Muslim ones. For us to allow ISIL-related attacks to be framed as attacks related to religion and link them to all those who are Muslim is to give ISIL the authority to define what Islam is, while simultaneously render it a self-fulfilling prophecy by pushing the most vulnerable, disaffected and ignorant Muslims to consider travelling to Syria or commit a heinous act at home.
The discussion, debate and public discourse must be drastically reframed. ISIL's terrorism emanates from them and no-one else. Muslims, by virtue of their religious affiliation, are not sympathetic to monsters, who happen to lay claim to the same religion. This should be clarified and reinforced time and time again for Western societies at large as a buffer to growing Islamophobia, which in turn forces the disaffected to consider ISIL and Raqqa as a viable alternative to a society where they feel alienated and isolated.
There is rightly intense anger amongst the French and other European States at their leaders for doing so little in the face of such wanton destruction and death. Those same leaders are doubly failing in their responsibility by an inability to be more resolute in resolving the crisis in Syria and take on ISIL with ground troops, so as to stymie their physical bases and capacity to direct and inspire global acts of terrorism. The longer we take, the more Syrian civilians die, the greater the outflux of refugees, the more terrorist attacks occur, the more of that hatred and animosity is going to be directed towards those who are seen as closest in affinity and identity to our enemies, no matter how spurious or fallacious the link between Muslims and ISIL.

Browse these real estate photographers with great ratings from Thumbtack customers in Kent.
My personal experience, with hiring Mike Samoylenko, from We Capture, for real estate photography services, was *above and beyond* exceptional. Here's my personal story share ... I'm currently leasing a Townhome, located in Maple Valley, WA. My Tenant, recently advised me, that she'd be breaking the Lease Agreement, three-(3) months early. As a result, I felt there was an immediate need, to search and obtain real estate photography services, for DIY releasing marketing purposes. I had no idea, where to begin searching and obtaining real estate photography services, so I reached out to Thumbtack, on the internet. In doing so, Mike was the first person, who contacted me, by telephone and text messaging, and in doing so, I hired him, immediately, because he was available, to provide me with next day service. When Mike met me the following morning, at my Townhome, unbenounced to me, there where many items, within each room, that required to be either moved, reorganization and/or rearranged, for photography staging purposes. Mike was instantaneously hands on, in kindly assisting me, in preparing each room, accordingly, before he could even begin his photography services. This personal assistance from Mike, entailed moving furniture, miscellaneous household items, packed up moving boxes, etc. Honestly, I could not have managed or accomplished this task at hand, on my own doing, because I have physical disabilities. Needless to say, I was *above and beyond* grateful to Mike, for going *above and beyond* the scope of the photography services, in which I had hired him for. I received the resulting photographs, within 24 hours, and again, all of the photigraphs, in which Mike captured were *above and beyond* my personal expectations. I would recommend Mike, from We Capture, to anyone, in a heartbeat, because his professional real estate photography services, were indeed *above and beyond* exceptional. I close by sharing, that it was a personal pleasure doing business with Mike Samoylenko, from We Capture!
Katrina was an absolute pleasure to work with. She came to the venue before the event to she what she would be working with. She knew exactly what to do while taking the pictures and easily integrated herself with the guests at the party. Do you need a photographer? Then hire Katrina...She is the BEST!!!
Jerry photographed our medical clinics in Lacey and Aberdeen. These photos were full of life and enhanced the architecture of the buildings. The final product reflected his eye for beauty and expertise in photography. The project was completed in a timely fashion and priced competitively. I am so impressed with the level of detail and vibrant photos, that I just had to share my experience. If you are looking for a quality trustworthy real estate photographer, I highly recommend using Eypan Photo Group.
Such amazing work, I'm highly impressed. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for real estate photos or anything photography related. I had pictures taken of an outdoor gate, and they turned out fabulous. His communication, artistic ability, and work quality were fantastic. Thanks again!
Jason has worked with for me on over 40 sets of real estate photos and videos for home listings. As a realtor I am extremely particular when it comes to real estate photos. Jason never disappointed. Exceptional work with a great eye for making homes shine and present at a high quality.
Mary is a true pro, she can definitely handle your real estate photography project. High quality work, responsive communications and a pleasure to work with. Would definitely hire her again!
Vuong is a talented photographer and is professional and also friendly. We had some family pictures taken and Vuong had very good ideas to create variation in the pictures she took and we were pleased with the quality of her work. She is also super responsive, which speeds up communication. We enjoyed working with Vuong and would definitely consider hiring her again the next time we have the need. I recommend her.
Megan Ingram is an excellent real estate photographer. She showed up when she said she was going to with the proper equipment and an assistant. She made clear, crisp, beautiful photos that are doing the job for our Airbnb listing. She's highly recommended.
Natalie is professional and prepared, but personable and warm. I enjoy working with her myself as well as referring her to real estate seller clients. She does a great job!
Ryan is one of those photographers who just seems to have a natural talent for it, understands how to light something properly. He has the equipment, knows how to use it. Can shoot on site or in his studio.
I spent a summer in Alaska working with Alex and I can't express how great he was. He is friendly, tech savy, and works harder than any other photographer I know. He has a great eye for capturing moments on camera and I would love to work with him again.
Jolene's my go to photographer. Her photography pulls you in with creatively composed, bright and cheerful shots that retain a real to the eye look without being overly processed. I also appreciate that, as a broker herself with decades of experience, she knows what catches buyer's attention and how to pull it out of each property she shoots. Always a great experience. Highly recommended.
Lauren takes very professional photos for real estate listings. I've been using her services for years.
Dave was quick and responsive. He was able to complete a project for me in less than 48 hours! All the media was exactly what I was looking for.
Larry has years of Real Estate photography experience, and it really shows in his work. Thank you
NorthWest Drone Works does great work! Highly recommended to anyone looking for real estate or aerial photos & video.
We specialize in high-quality, professional architectural images that capture the unique beauty of all kinds of properties including, but not limited to, residential, commercial, hotels and resorts, vacation properties, marine and more. The HDR process we use is aimed at letting your customer view the property truly as if they were standing in that room. This exciting technology allows for a much better range of high and low values within one image. HDRPROS offers affordable, high-quality imagery and a quick turnaround via electronic delivery, providing you with the best marketing materials for your sales campaign. Why Should You Hire a Professional Photographer? Here are 3 good reasons to secure an HDRPRO today: #1. We are in a competitive marketplace. One solution to making your listings and sales campaigns stand out is to have them be the most appealing-looking properties out there on the internet. #2. If you are looking for a point of differentiation when you go on a listing or sales appointment, tell the "seller/owner" that you will be hiring a professional photographer to take the pictures of their property. The odds are that your competition will not be making that same promise. #3. 9 out of 10 people start their search online. Your campaign will attract more attention if you have great images. The first and sometimes only impression a buyer gets is online photographs. Thanks for your time and consideration. We look forward to partnering with you for a successful sales campaign.
First impressions are paramount. Real estate photographs must capture the buyer's attention. The quality of your real estate images does make a difference. With over 90% of homebuyers beginning their research online, it's important to ensure that your property is photographed by a professional photographer. A recent real estate study showed that professionally captured images can add an additional $4k to $11k to the final price of your home. If you're a real estate professional or a homeowner looking to list your property, a property stager looking for portfolio shots, or a contractor or builder, please contact me to discuss how I can add value to your portfolio. My prices start at $150, depending on the size of the property. Up to 1,000sqft ($150) 1,001 to 2,000 sqft ($200) 2,000 to 3,500 sqft ($250) Over 3,500 sqft (call for customized quote) I realize that turnaround time is key.

Let's remember that the hyper-competent black woman who never gets a romance storyline and carries all the white people on her team, is not a progressively written character. The trope exists to justify the centuries old bullshit of treating black women like unlovable beasts of burden while white women get to be treasured decorative objects to be protected (which is a better position, don't lie, like it's not 'actual person' good, but it's a biiiig step up.)
Like she's cool and she's a badass, but she deserves to get to be vulnerable, and treasured and loved and not treated like an expendable resource rather than a lovable and valued human being.
Isn't that just a slightly evolved version of the mammy stereotype?
I believe it's sort of a cross between the mammy stereotype and the Sapphire stereotype, but I may be entirely wrong, but like Tara from TrueBlood does a ton of emotional labor but is also portrayed as angry and "difficult" even though her anger is very justified.

I had a really good plan for the summer– I was not going to do anything but relax, maybe finish a few projects, and hang out with my kiddos. Well, I got most of my backyard tidied up and got my scrapbook room cleaned but then things got a bit crazy. We had some very dear friends come to town with their adopted daughter (she is the cutest little girl) and then my daughter and I went on a mini vacation to St. George Island to continue our visit with our friends. I accepted a job as Creative Team Manager for a digi scrap site called Digi Top 3 and I'm waiting to hear about another job that would possibly start next week. As of yesterday, I began my adventure into the world of photography and post processing in Photoshop (I love that program). There will be lots of pictures posted I'm sure as I learn all the fundamentals, etc.
Today I got brave and posted a few in Click'n Moms forum for cc…I'm scared but these are the two I chose
Whatcha think?
I have managed to get some layouts done also
I'm sure more will be posted soon.. Well, I'm off for yet another lazy summer day
Hugs, H
