By the time you read this, the team at IGN will be flying sickeningly high above the ocean on a 10-hour trip to Tokyo, Japan, in order to fully cover Nintendo's quickly approaching Spaceworld show. Because we know you can't wait to know what's in store for you over the couple of days, we thought it might be helpful if we outlined a brief "game plan" (so to speak) below:
- We arrive in Japan Wednesday at 4:45 PM and we'll start our pre-coverage shortly afterward. Note to US residents: Japan is roughly 14 hours ahead so it'll still be Tuesday for you.
- Thursday (Japan): IGN will report back with periodic updates all throughout the pre-show. Expect breakdowns of demos and software shown alongside interviews, screenshots and movies.
- Friday (Japan): IGN will hit the show floor and cover all the big Nintendo 64 software. We'll also have interviews with key Nintendo executives including Shigeru Miyamoto, Jim Merrick and Perrin Kaplan. Additionally, look for talks with second-party companies and face-to-face QA sessions with big Japanese supporters like Konami and Capcom.
- IGN64 and IGNcube will be updated as frequently as possible with new information on games, as well as breaking news, interviews, and analysis.
Stay with us over the next several days folks -- we don't think you'll be disappointed by what Nintendo does (and doesn't) deliver.

Women working in the Chicagoland hospitality industry "face a high level of sexual harassment" at local casinos and hotels, according to a new survey from Unite Here Local 1.
A new report from the progressive State Innovation Exchange details some of the best and worst policies from this year's state legislative sessions.
Republican presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump has reportedly selected Indiana Gov. Mike Pence as his running mate.
The U.S. Supreme Court announced a 4-4 split on the case challenging President Barack Obama's executive orders on immigration reform and Illinois advocates are expressing their dismay as they plan to press their efforts forward.
The deadlock vote means the president's November 2014 orders to expand the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program and install the Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA) have been blocked for the time being.
The programs would have deferred deportation for three years for undocumented immigrants who are parents of U.S. citizens and green card holders, while also expanding protections for people who were brought to the U.S. as minors and were not covered by the original DACA program. More than 4 million immigrants would have benefited from the orders, 280,000 people living in Illinois.
"This ruling is deeply frustrating and disappointing for all immigrant communities," said Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights CEO Lawrence Benito. "Instead of being able to move forward with our lives and contributing further to our entire community, immigrants remain vulnerable to the knock on the door that could separate them from their families and from the lives they have made in this country."
Two major cases, involving abortion and President Barack Obama's immigration actions, now remain before the U.S. Supreme Court as the judicial body's current term nears its end.
The following is written by Oren Jacobson, executive director and co-founder of Men4Choice, "an organization that serves as a point of entry for young men to join the fight to protect and expand women's reproductive rights and make choice a voting issue for men."
In November 2010, Tea Party-aligned politicians swept into office at all levels of government under the guise of reducing government influence in our daily lives. That promise was quickly broken by many of those elected, who have since seemed more interested in using the authority of the state to severely limit access to reproductive health services and marginalize the women who make use of them. During the last 6 years, we have actually seen as many anti-choice pieces of legislation adopted by the states as the previous 15 years combined. In 2015, at least one piece of legislation was filed per day that would strip women of their basic rights.
These efforts aren't simply about preventing abortions, though. They are actually designed to make it harder to access basic health care and contraceptive services. For example, Planned Parenthood's abortion services make up roughly three percent of the organization's work, but that hasn't stopped anti-choice legislators from pushing to defund this vital organization that helps millions across the country receive affordable, critical healthcare.
Tuesday is Equal Pay Day, marking how far into 2016 women must work in order to earn what men made in 2015.
Women today still earn just 79 cents on average for every dollar paid to men. For African-American women and Latinas, the wage gap widens to 60 cents and 55 cents, respectively, according to an analysis by the National Partnership for Women & Families.
Equal pay advocates say it's time to end the gender wage gap, which could be closed in part by passage of the long-proposed federal Paycheck Fairness Act. Under the bill, employees could share salary information between co-workers without retaliation, among other provisions.
Some Democrats are using Equal Pay Day to slam Congressional Republicans over their repeated efforts against the legislation.
U.S. Rep. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL,8) is among the Democratic cosponsors of the Paycheck Fairness Act. Duckworth, who is running for incumbent Mark Kirk's (R-IL) Senate seat, is seeking to draw a contrast with her opponent on equal pay issues.
Women McDonald's workers and their allies spoke out against alleged workplace abuses during a Chicago protest held Tuesday morning to coincide with International Women's Day. Progress Illinois was there for the protest.
UNITE HERE Local 1 targeted state Rep. Mary Moylan (D-Des Plaines) with a new ad Wednesday, alleging that the lawmaker made light of a casino worker's claim of sexual harassment at the workplace.
The Rivers Casino buffet server alleges that when she was sexually harassed by a patron at her workplace, higher ups at the facility "took no action" on the complaint, according to the ad, prompting her to contact Moylan's office for further assistance. The union alleges that Moylan "laughed after [the] 21 year-old waitress came forward to share her story of sexual harassment." Moylan's district includes the suburb of Des Plaines, where Rivers Casino is located.
"Representative Moylan's behavior demonstrates a need for a very public challenge," says UNITE HERE Local 1 President Karen Kent. "We need to show our daughters, nieces, friends and colleagues that we are behind them, that we believe in them, that we've been there, and we're going to end it. I invite leaders, entrepreneurs, activists, public officials to step up and support the young women, the women with the fewest resources, who are making their way in the world."
Meanwhile, Moylan is balking at the union's claims.

Indeed, it's not about sensible opinion, it's about marketing and what the great unwashed throngs expect. Peer pressure, coolness factor, skinny leg jeans, and haircuts from the 60s 70s 80s all mashed together. Us old folks don't really count! @auswinphone
Instagram has the backing of Facebook, advertising clout, has been growing in popularity on Android and iOS, and somehow appeals to the "back to the future" of whatever this generation of hipster dufus' deems to be cool. In other words a huge marketing success, a social platform that you need to be on to be cool. In a way, both of these platforms are essential, as any social media analytics report will tell you, because of how widely they are used. It is true that if you want to market yourself or whatever your product may be, you need to familiarize yourself with them, and use them as well obviously. I do think that there are other platforms to be considered however.
Windows Phone has it's equivalents, and many the WinPhan has a favourite like Eyeem, or Fhotoroom. So Why are we not supporting those apps more? How come Instagram is portrayed as a deal breaker, defining what tech pundits believe is an app that could launch the OS to a whole new level of popularity? Here at WinPhan we have had much discussion on why.
We also have noticed that there is a general feeling that we need to support existing Windows Phone apps that fulfill the same function. One such conversation led to @martibwbear Martha, sharing her WinPhan thoughts with us, and you. First though a bit of background…
I'll start out with two statements:
Firstly, I'm a WinPhan. Yup, I love my Windows Phone 8 (a Nokia Lumia 920).
Secondly, I write for mobilitydigest.com. It's an all-things mobile site, and not just phones, not just Windows.
The latter comes into play first. I was checking on my Twitter feed, and saw the tweet post for Murani Lewis' article, "Windows Phone Users Should Support Fhotoroom." Murani has a great writing style, and he also has great insights. In this article, he basically says, "Why are you waiting on Instagram, and why do you want it anyway? We have this GREAT program that we should be supporting!"
So I thought to myself, "You know, he's got a point. WHY do I think I want Instagram?" So I went and got Fhotoroom as soon as I had a second, and it's really great. It has a TON of edits, filters, you name it, and the pictures come out great. And, of course, our WinPhan friends are all there!
So are we iSheep, taking what we're TOLD we want? Are we robots, slogging through the mass of good, bad, and ugly, and waiting for second-hand apps?
Or are we WinPhans, happy with the QUALITY of our apps, and blessed that our devs are not only supported by the Powers That Be, but that our devs are passionate, dedicated, responsive, and creative?
So what are you waiting for?! Go get Fhotoroom NOW! It's free. Let's Support Our Devs! Start tweeting the heck out of your pictures, and let's show the Instagrammers that we have a great app too!
Instagram? We don't need no stinking Instagram!!
That is the true WinPhan attitude, and with the app store just surpassing the 50, 000 mark, there are a huge amount of incredible, high quality apps to choose from. There's a fine balance though, dedicated Windows Phone users are already convinced about the OS and their phones, and the apps that they use, but there are a certain amount of popular apps on other platforms, not being available on Windows Phone that, being absent from the OS are a turn off.
Instagram has become the Messiah of these apps, and if people cannot find their social religion on Windows Phone it's not for them.
It's a fine line, supporting devs that have been supporting us since very early on in the Windows Phone journey, and realising, for the OS to really compete with Apple and Android, we need to see the top fifty apps from both OS's come to Windows Phone.
I do not need no stinking Instagram, but a lot of people define themselves, their popularity, coolness, street cred with apps like this. Thoughts?

+ Why isn't Essentia in my local mattress store?
Most mattress stores aren't too sure what to make of us because our mattresses put conventional mattresses into question.
Example: Shopper says "is natural memory foam better for me?". If the mattress salesperson answers "yes", all the other models in his store are now deemed unhealthy, putting him in a pickle.
That's why we chose to open our own Essentia stores.
+ What is Natural Memory Foam?
All memory foam on the market is made with petroleum-based chemicals except for Essentia's natural memory foam. Wanting something healthier, we developed a natural memory foam. It's more expensive to produce but results in a product that sleeps much cooler, is healthy and extremely comfortable.
+ Why don't you use Wool?
1) Better Sleep - Natural latex foam is firm and rubbery. Other companies will add wool on top to improve comfort but the improvement is negligible. Our natural memory foam is far more pressure relieving than wool.
2) Reduce Dust Mites - Wool is fibrous which makes it an awesome nesting ground for dust mites and other critters. For this reason, it requires maintenance and should be washed on a regular basis just like a wool sweater.
3) Honesty - Wool is used for marketing purposes. Companies will add organic wool for the organic story. They also claim wool is a natural fire retardant which it is, but wool cannot pass fire proofing tests without "assistance". It is always backed with a Fire Retardant.
+ Why should I choose your mattress over other natural mattresses?
Health + Comfort
Essentia mattresses are far more comfortable than regular latex mattresses topped with wool. This is why pro athletes choose us when they want the healthiest and most comfortable mattress on the market.
We also test our products for things like VOC's and performance.
In a Nutshell
✓ Our products are natural.
✓ We manufacturer. (99% of the industry just assemble components)
✓ We're never satisfied and always improving.
✓ We invented and patented the only natural memory foam in the world.
✓ We invented and patented a molding process, elevating comfort and performance.
✓ Our products deliver comfort like no other, and we do it using natural components.
✓ They're ultra high-density which means they'll last. See our 20 year warranty.
Just an example of how passionate we are about quality: Organic cotton covers used by most companies have polyester fill and regular unbleached cotton backing. Not good enough. We travelled to Italy, had machinery re-tooled to handle organic fibers and extra wide fabric. It took 2 years but we created one of the few truly unbleached organic covers out there and it's made with organic dyes a well.
That's why people choose Essentia mattresses, because they want the best. Health and comfort without compromise.
+ Is it easy to get used to a memory foam mattress?
It takes 1-4 weeks to adjust to a memory foam mattress.
+ Is your natural memory foam heat sensitive?
Yes and No. It's close to 80% less heat sensitive than regular memory foam. Unlike regular memory foam which takes minutes to adjust, our natural memory foam takes seconds. So no matter what your desired room temperature may be, our memory foam will have a consistent feel and adjust to your body and movements quickly. No quicksand-like feel.
+ Are box springs or foundations required for your mattresses?
The ideal surface for an Essentia mattress is a flat, rigid surface that allows airflow. So a slatted bed base or foundation with a flat, rigid and ventilated surface like our Zebase or Vertebase foundation is the optimal solution. Slats should be no more than 3 inches apart and must not be flexible. The only exception to this is the Grateful Bed JR which can be placed on flexible slats.
You'll want to avoid slatted bed base with flexible or bowed slats and box springs (foundations with springs inside) as they interfere with the contouring support and durability our mattresses. A surface like this will void our warranty.
+ What is the product care for an Essentia mattress?
- No need to flip.
- Rotate once a year.
- If mattress gets wet, absorb excess by patting with dry cloth then let air dry.
- Machine wash mattress cover in cold water and mild eco-friendly detergent, air dry. Do not bleach.
- Place mattress on flat, rigid, breathable surface.
+ How does Essentia compare to the competition?
Essentia memory foam is a beast:
✓ 6.25/cubic feet of pressure.
✓ 12.43 mmHg @ 200lbs. Tempur-pedic was measured at 17.7.
✓ Breathes 80% better. (Heat build-up is the most common complaint with memory foam)
We make our foam just outside Montreal, Quebec at our head office.

Hi Everyone,
The Chinese New Year holidays have now finished Jun has gone back to work today after a week off,maybe the fireworks will now stop as they have been setting them off day and night for the last 10 days it was like being in a war zone sometimes haha,but very colourful.
I have just took Jun's dog ( a daschund) to the park and met her friend Ping who works in the customs dept next to the park at their local canteen and collected our rice I thought i was picking up a small bag from her but it weighed a ton i struggled back with it haha.
We went to the Temple of Heaven on New Years day to see the celebrations by the Taoists but it was so crowed we couldn't see the parade only hear it,we then went into the park surrounded by trees hundreds of years old some even a thousand at one point there were 4 young men aged about 16/18 climbing one of them and taking photos of each other Jun went straight over a gave them a telling off they just jumped down apologised and moved on I thought in england she would have just got a load of abuse.
Another day we went to another park to look at the white stupa that dominates the skyline over the forbidden city and climbed to the top with lovely views over the city,while in the park we watched a woman doing Tai Chi (Chen Style) she was very good so we chatted with her then she asked me to do some of mine which was a bit embarresing doing it in front of other people but i did some then she asked if i would like to train with her that i could meet her every morning at 7am in this park (It's 3 tube rides to get there) so i declined.
I watched a man writing poetry one day on the pavement with water,hows that for a demonstration of impermanance (It's one of the photo's i have included).We also went to chairman mao's tomb to see him but i had forgot my passport so they wouldn't let me in they can go to the extremes sometimes with beauracracy Jun says there are regulations then there is reality.
I will be going to the local hospital later this week for my medical so i can apply for my chinese driving licence then i have to pay £100 to sit a theory test, I have done a bit more driving and becoming more comfortable with the chinese system of driving called (get out of my way I,m going into that lane) haha.
I hope this finds everyone well and you enjoy the photo's.

As we leave the cold winter behind and roll into spring there are many exciting things happening at Adair County Health System. We continue to grow and look for new ways of providing convenient access of care throughout Adair County. Recently, we have expanded our specialty clinic services to include Iowa Ortho. We are excited to welcome, Michael Gainer, M.D., specializing in hand and upper extremity surgery; John Netrour, M.D., hip and knee surgery; and Anthony Stark, D.O., physical medicine and rehabilitation.
In October, we completed our 3P project that centered on the renovation of our current operating room, admitting/registration area, and ambulance drop off. Our next steps will include public tours and community meetings to share the plans for the spaces and invite ideas from the public.
Our growth is expanding beyond the bricks of the hospital walls. We are working to improve the overall health and wellness of the community [ ... ]

FreshSkin offers Botox with in a short driving distance from Elmhurst, Il area.
To get exact directions enter your starting address:
What is Botox®?
Residents of Elmhurst, IL who want to have a younger and fresher appearance should consider the Botox® injections offered by FreshSkin. Botox® is an FDA-approved muscle relaxant that is effective in improving the appearance of wrinkles and frown lines. It has consistently been among the top nonsurgical procedures performed in the USA. Botox® works by blocking the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which is responsible for muscle contractions, thereby causing muscles to relax and wrinkles to soften.
How is Botox® administered?
Administering not complicated. A thorough inspection of the facial muscles will be performed prior to the administration of Botox® to determine the correct injection points. The injection point is not necessarily on the wrinkle itself, so determining its location is crucial to the success of the procedure. Once this is done, the right amount of Botox® is injected into the skin using a fine needle. Discomfort may be felt, but it is usually tolerable.
Botox® has very little downtime; the patient can resume his or her normal activities immediately after the procedure. The substance is absorbed by the body in about three to six months, after which the patient needs follow-up injections to maintain his or her appearance.

For the fans of Andrew McCutchens dreads of the past, you better start adjusting to his clean cut look.
The Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder told Stephen Nesbitt of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that he will "never" grow his hair back out.
"Never bringing them back," McCutchen said. "Never."
More from FoxSports
The biggest thing the five-time All-Star was worried about in cutting his hair was that video game developers would have to alter his look for this season.
From Nesbitt:
The only person McCutchen really felt sorry for after the haircut was the video-game developer at MLB The Show who would have to scramble to update the 'do.
"Someone spent some hard hours making the hair move and flow," he said, "and the next thing you know I cut it."
It certainly doesn't look like the clean cut has affected his play on the field, as McCutchen is hitting .293 with 22 home runs this season.

Michael Schrage: I think one of the most important findings in my book, in my research, is that innovators fundamentally misunderstand human capital as an asset, human capital as a resource. The majority of organizations that want to innovate say, "We need to get innovators. We need to improve the capabilities and competencies of our employees. We need to hire people who are willing to take a chance, et cetera, and be innovative." And the whole notion of, you know, our competitive advantage in this post-industrial era is that we have better human capital than our competitors. Google has better people than IBM has better people than Apple has better people than Amazon and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I submit that's the exact wrong way to look at it. Not that it's wrong in the sense of false, but wrong in the way of being incomplete. What about your customers' human capital? What about your clients' human capital? The Gedankenexperiment, the thought experiment, I want people to give very, very serious consideration to is what if we stopped thinking of innovation as something that's new and valuable that we market and sell and what if we start thinking about innovation as an investment in the human capital capabilities and competencies of our customers.
Yes, Henry Ford transformed the factory-production system with mass production of the automobile, the Model T, the Model A, et cetera. And everybody celebrates that as a milestone in business history. I submit that economic historians, business historians, marketers missed the essential point. Henry Ford didn't just enable the mass production of automobiles. He facilitated the mass creation of the human capital of driving. Everybody drives. It's an asset. It transforms markets. It transforms individual and organizational capabilities. Why do we not spend as much time focusing on the human capital and adding value to the human capital of our customers and our clients as opposed to our employees? I think that's the essential innovation takeaway. How do our innovations transform the human capital of our customers, not just the human capital of the people who work for us and with us?
The reason why I came up with the design heuristic "making customers better makes better customers" is because I wanted to help innovative organizations filter and prioritize their innovation investments. It's not enough to make your customer better if you don't reap the benefits of that investment. Conversely, if we're just making a better customer, that's exploitation. So what you're trying to do is align an innovation investment that makes your customer measurably better in some way that matters to that customer, in some ways that matter to that client. But at the same time you're making that customer more valuable to themselves, you're making them more valuable to you. By making them a better customer, you're making them a better customer for you. Making customers better makes better customers.

SOURCE: Helix BioPharma Corp.
April 07, 2014 16:30 ET
AURORA, ON--(Marketwired - Apr 7, 2014) - Helix BioPharma Corp. (TSX: HBP) (FRANKFURT: HBP), a biopharmaceutical company developing innovative drug candidates for the prevention and treatment of cancer, today announced the opening of patient screening for the eighth dose level cohort in its ongoing Phase I/II clinical safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy study of L-DOS47 in Poland. This follows completion of the first treatment cycle in the three patients enrolled in the seventh dose level cohort, in which L-DOS47 therapy was well tolerated as reviewed by the Trial Steering Committee.
Helix intends to initiate and submit to Polish regulatory authorities for approval a protocol amendment that would continue dose escalation for the Phase I component of the study beyond Cohort 8 in the event the maximum tolerated dose ("MTD") is not reached in Cohort 8.
As previously disclosed, the planned enrolment in the study depends on how many dose levels are required to reach MTD. Helix originally estimated that MTD would be reached after enrolling eight cohorts of three patients each; however, none of the treatment related adverse events reported to date have met the definition of a dose-limiting toxicity.
"We are pleased to see this safety profile for L-DOS47, and our application to continue dose escalation, if approved, will provide us with the ability to gather the best possible information for further continued development of our lead candidate. Higher doses evaluated in this study can potentially provide greater insight into its use in future safety and efficacy studies," said Robert Verhagen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Helix. "The company will provide a more detailed update on the status of the first seven patient cohorts by the end of the second calendar quarter of 2014."
L-DOS47 is Helix's first immunoconjugate-based drug candidate in development based upon Helix's novel DOS47 technology, which is designed to use an innovative approach to modify the microenvironmental conditions of cancer cells in a manner that leads to their destruction. L-DOS47 is currently being clinically evaluated as a treatment for certain patients with non-small cell lung cancer ("NSCLC").
The Phase I/II clinical study is an open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of ascending doses of L-DOS47, initially as a monotherapy, in patients with inoperable, locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic, non-squamous, stage IIIb/IV NSCLC. The study commenced with a starting dose of 0.12 micrograms of L-DOS47 per kilogram of patient body weight in the first patient cohort. Patients to be enrolled in the eighth cohort will receive the next L-DOS47 dose level as planned in the study protocol, which is 1.38 micrograms of L-DOS47 per kilogram of patient body weight.
About Helix BioPharma Corp.
Helix BioPharma Corp. is a biopharmaceutical company specializing in the field of cancer therapy. The company is actively developing innovative products for the prevention and treatment of cancer based on its proprietary technologies. Helix's product development initiatives include its novel L-DOS47 new drug candidate and its Topical Interferon Alpha-2b. Helix is currently listed on the TSX and FSE under the symbol "HBP".

Repeating activities such as bending, lifting or twisting, as well as poor posture or injury may lead to back pain. Your neck supports the weight and movement of your head and with the amount of driving, computer work and other daily activities that most of us do. Neck pain, life problems in the back, can be caused by poor posture, repetitive daily activities or direct injury. Chiropractors, where appropriate, can offer treatment, advice on reducing the risk of future injury and help with any rehabilitation that may be necessary.
Headaches are common and almost everyone suffers from the odd one now and again.

Langbourne M. Williams Professor of American History at the University of Virginia. Author of Disunion!: The Coming of the American Civil War, 1789-1859, Southern Lady, Yankee Spy: The True Story of Elizabeth Van Lew, A Union Agent in the Heart of the Confederacy, and We Mean to be Counted: White Women and Politics in Antebellum Virginia.
Winner, Library of Virginia Literary Award for Nonfiction Winner, Eugene Feit Award in Civil War Studies, New York Military Affairs Symposium Winner of the Dan and Marilyn Laney Prize of the Austin Civil War Round Table Finalist, Jefferson Davis Award of the Museum of the Confederacy Best Books of 2014, Civil War Monitor 6 Civil War Books to Read Now, Diane Rehm Show, NPR "Varon's work is a balanced inquiry into the meanings of the Appomattox peace for Northerners and Southerners, whites and blacks, men and women... Appomattox is equally adept at illuminating the war's meaning on the home front and in political halls... [Varon] successfully resurrects the true April 1865 event as one fraught with anxiety, passion, and, above all, political conflict." --North Carolina Historical Review "[A] compelling new account of the war's end... Rather than emphasizing the finality of military defeat, Varon stresses the uncertainty of the subsequent days, weeks, and months." --Sarah Bowman, Civil War Monitor "A very fine account... In the end, as Varon so ably demonstrates, Appomattox did not end a war. It just closed the phase of that contest characterized by armed conflict. The much older war would go on. In some ways, it is not over yet." --William C. Davis, History Book Club "Excellent and thought-provoking...Varon...treats Appomattox as a major event in American history, worth extensive analysis, but also as a very engaging human story." --James E. Sefton, Civil War Book Review "Elizabeth Varon successfully argues in her groundbreaking book that the seeds for the post-Civil War world started before the ink had dried on the surrender agreement signed by Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee at Appomattox Court House... A careful construction and analysis of the meaning of Appomattox to many different people." --James Percoco, Civil War News "A careful, scholarly consideration of how the ambiguities surrounding the defeat of the South resolved into the bitter eras of Reconstruction and Jim Crow." --Kirkus Reviews "In this powerful analysis of the substantive and symbolic meanings of the surrender at Appomattox, Elizabeth Varon shows how that iconic moment has shaped a range of perceptions of the Civil War and its consequences. Grant and Lee emerge with new richness and complexity in this important book, one of the best to appear during these years of the war's sesquicentennial anniversaries." --James McPherson, author of Battle Cry of Freedom "In lively prose, Elizabeth Varon demonstrates that much of what we think we know about Lee's surrender to Grant in April 1865 is misleading, embellished, or just plain wrong, but even more important, she portrays the ending of the Civil War less as a moment of innocence than as long process, begun before the ink on the surrender signatures had dried, in which white and black Americans of all regions and varying political stripes shrewdly contested the meaning of the war." --Chandra Manning, author of What This Cruel War Was Over "In a short space, Elizabeth Varon has not only given us a graceful narrative of the epochal surrender at Appomattox, but has also awakened us to the bitterly-contested meanings of that surrender. The war that ended at Appomattox did not subside into a happy story of fraternal reconciliation, but into an ongoing struggle between those who believed the war had brought a new age of freedom and equality into existence, and those who fought to keep the South's feudal past upon its throne. We will not be able to look at Appomattox, or the legacy of the Civil War, in simplistic terms again." --Allen C. Guelzo, author of Gettysburg: The Last Invasion "Elizabeth Varon's elegant meditation on the complex legacy of the Appomattox surrender combines finely grained social history with penetrating analysis of one of the great mythic moments in American history. Closing out the Civil War, Lee and Grant's fateful meeting ushered in a harmonious reunion of a country destined for greatness. Or did it? Varon's meticulous unpacking of the layers of falsehood surrounding the myth lays bare a painful truth-that there was no unified vision of what peace might bring to a troubled and still bitterly divided nation." --Joan Waugh, University of California, Los Angeles "Based on exceptionally thorough research, Elizabeth Varon's study meticulously dissects the sentimental, romantic version of the Appomattox story, which portrays it as an apolitical, magnanimous event. Varon shows convincingly that Robert E. Lee and other Confederates made the Army of Northern Virginia's surrender the opening shot in the battle over Reconstruction, and that the seeds of Reconstruction's failure were sown at Appomattox Court House on April 9, 1865." --Michael Burlingame, author of Abraham Lincoln: A Life "Varon probes deep into the psyches of Lee and Grant and analyzes them with fresh eyes to understand what kind of nation they envisioned emerging from the wreckage of war... Varon also delves into the letters, diaries, and memoirs left by the men of the two armies who fought each other during those last desperate days... In her clear, confident, yet elegant, prose, Varon gives renewed life to many of the players in the last act of America's greatest tragedy." --Gordon Berg, Civil War Round Table of the District of Columbia "We are always looking for books that enable us to see the Lees in a new way. Elizabeth Varon's new book, Appomattox: Victory, Defeat, and Freedom at the End of the Civil War does just that... A compelling tale." --Paul Reber, Executive Director, Stratford Hall "Varon is effective in dispelling the various myths that have sprung up over the surrender itself, including the fabled meeting under an apple tree, which never happened. Using a wealth of primary and secondary sources, the work is excellent in never treating either North or South as monolithic. The author thoroughly discusses the roles of African Americans in both sections, and gives the political opponents in both regions their say." --K.L. Gorman, Minnesota State University, Mankato, CHOICE "Elizabeth Varon's elegant narrative, provocative argument, and skillful use of sources make this work an interesting addition to the historiography of the Civil War Era." --Southern Literary Review "A compelling account of the courses taken by Grant and Lee and a superb look at how the public in both sections endeavored to understand what had happened-and what it portended for the future." --Ethan S. Rafuse, America's Civil War

Basic self-defense tips every woman should know
Self-defense isn't about knocking the daylights out of someone who annoys you on your way to work or about living in fear or anticipation of an attack. It's about taking control of your own safety since, unfortunately, we don't live in utopia just yet.
Brazilian Brooklyn Jiu Jitsu instructor Nova Parrish explained to me, "There's a type of confidence that comes from knowing we can protect ourselves that's unshakeable. It doesn't come from the way we look or how many likes we get on social media. We look at ourselves differently when we know we can take care of ourselves and no one can take that away. It's based on something internal, not external."
Parrish takes women's self-defense both seriously and personally, offering expert tips and demonstrations on how to keep yourself safe and escape from a dangerous situation. Listen up!

I have always had a love of Television, Movies, Music, Fashion and Books.
I watch more TV than anyone else I have ever met in my life, and in school I used to read two novels at a time. Since I started working though, I have gotten a little slack in the book reading department.
All my friends and family say that I should have been an Entertainment Reporter. Well here is my chance!
I currently work in a high-end fashion boutique, which I love. Fashion has been in family for generations. However entertainment has always been my passion. I remember when I was about 10 my parents trying to enforce a 1 hour a day TV schedule. That lasted about 2 days!
This is not a celebrity gossip site. You will have to go elsewhere to read about that. This is me talking about the shows I love to watch, movies I love to see, music I love listening to and fashion and books that I like.
I hope you enjoying reading my reviews as much as I love 'researching' them. Happy reading!

Inquire about church use
Schedule premarital with jill
We love weddings and being a part of them.
Your first contact is Patty in the church office to A) set up a time with a pastor and B) reserve space at the church if needed.
There is a cost for using the church building. We're not looking to make money on it but simply cover the costs incurred. Contact the church office for more details.
We only use the building for weddings of people who are part of our church community. However, our pastor may be available to do weddings outside of our church body. These requests are taken on a case by case basis.
We do require premarital counseling for all of our weddings.
Premarital counseling is offered at very little expense to the couple. There is a small (less than $50) cost for taking the online assessment through Prepare and Enrich. We think you'll find it well worth it!
Premarital counseling with us typically involves two meetings with the pastor: one initial meeting and another two weeks before the wedding after the counseling sessions with Jill have been completed.
The counseling sessions with Jill typically involve 10-12 sessions.
We advise starting a good 6 months in advance.
The state of MN requires a notarized document on church letterhead stating that a couple has completed their premarital hours.
You will need this when applying for your wedding license. We are happy to provide this. Simply contact the pastor through the office when you are ready for it.
We recommend applying for your license at least two weeks before your wedding. There is a 5 day waiting period in MN.
Our pastor does weddings on an honorarium basis. That means that the amount you choose to give for doing the wedding is up to you.
It's wise when thinking about honorariums to factor in travel costs and time incurred by the pastor. A typical honorarium with minimal travel involved is between $150-$250.

Jap European on line casino operator Olympic Leisure Group has opened its latest and premier on line casino to date in Estonia's funds Tallinn.
Wednesday noticed the formal grand opening of the new Hilton Tallinn Park, the 1st Hilton resort in the Baltic region. The €45m facility features 202 rooms, a conference centre, spa, cafe and "one of the premier ballrooms in Tallinn."
The floor flooring houses the property's gaming location, the Olympic Park Casino, which opened at midnight, fourteen hours just before the resort lower its ribbon. The assets, which OEG is contacting its flagship on line casino, offers slots, gaming tables, an OlyBet-branded athletics betting lounge, event poker and a big bar spot.
The launch was preceded by the completion of the fusion of OEG's Estonian subsidiaries. In February, OEG accomplished its acquisition of on line casino operator AS MC Kasiinod, which has now been merged with Olympic Casino Eesti AS. The Kasiinod acquisition introduced the quantity of gaming venues under OEG's Estonian banner to 24 as of May.
As a end result of the merger, thirteen-yr OEG veteran Erki Tavas has been named handling director of Olympic Casino Eesti. Tavas will take above from Algar Hain, who has resolved to depart the organization on his very own accord.
OEG's Estonian division noted earnings of €9.5m in Q1, up fourteen.2% yr-on-yr. That is second only to OEG's Latvian functions, which were being up 32.five% to €16m next final year's acquisition of betting operator UAB Orakulas.
OEG's blended earnings was up 16% to €45.3m, thanks to great gains from its functions in Lithuania, Slovakia, Italy and Malta, even though the Polish division slipped nearly thirty% to €4.6m next the closure of just one of its two casinos. OEG's Q1 earnings were being up 12.five% to €9m even though profit enhanced four% to €5.1m.

Northwest Flower & Garden Show 2012 – It's a Wrap!February 13, 2012
The 2012 Northwest Flower & Garden Show ranks as one of the best in my book. And, I've been to a lot of them.
I promised myself I would spend much of the show planted in the seminar rooms. This was a rough winter for me, and I felt the need to find inspiration, ideas and wisdom from others in the industry.
And, that's exactly what I got.
Here's a few tasty tidbits selected from all of the amazing information and insights I sampled at the show this year:
Teresa O'Connor of Seasonal Wisdom shared some amazing stories about this history and medicinal uses of many common plants in her Edible Flowers seminar. Even I hadn't known that a species name 'Officinalis' means the plant had medicinal uses way back when.
Rebecca Sweet of Harmony in the Garden reminded me to extract color from my visuals when designing. This really helps see texture, form and big ole gaping holes.
Jessi Bloom, while clucking about gardening harmoniously with chickens, managed to slip in some amazing permiculture gardening tips. How much sense does it make that a plant known historically as "boneset" would be one that's able to extract an amazing amount of beneficial nutrient from the soil and store it in its leaves. Thanks for the comfry Jess and for your great new book Free Range Chicken Gardens!
Willi Galloway dove deep into the growing, harvesting and cooking she shares in her recently released Grow. Cook. Eat. book. I've already seeded favas so I can try out her amazing grilling technique that should really cut down on the labor required to enjoy this healthy crop. Oh, and if you've ever run out of inventive ideas for serving cucumber, know this book has what looks to be a new favorite recipe for me — gotta buy it to get the recipe!
Joe Lamp'l of Growing a Greener World reminded me of all the fantastic stories the show has told over the past two seasons, with another one coming right up. And, generous as always, he gave a great shout-out to everyone he could think of who has helped make the show what it is today — including me! Thanks Joe!
Dan Hinkley's slides before a full room began by reminding me that for the last several years, our local freezes have started earlier and earlier each year. And, many of the plants haven't been ready for it. Still, he shared a number of ultra-hearty, super-gorgeous plants that have not only survived but some, he said, seem to thrive with the extra chill — including a banana of all things. He did say he'd be happy to take audience members on plant explorations — only if they'll volunteer to be the leech bait. Hmmm…not sure how I'd do with that job.
Although I couldn't make Jayme Jenkin's DIY demo on building an edible cocktail garden table, I did pull her aside and begged for the "two minute synopsis". I got it, but here's the thing: go to her website, and I'm pretty sure she'll be posting a "how-to" soon. Really, this table is a must-have!
And, yes, I was nearly blinded by the sparkling stars blinking all 'round my hero Graham Kerr. Fortunately, The Galloping Gourmet, is disarmingly charming and utterly sweet. Not only did I bust a gut laughing along with him as he taught and performed on stage, but also I'm certain I made a friend. His new project, which encourages neighbors to meet, garden, cook and share together is called E.G.G.S. I don't know about you, but I've already got a few neighbors coming over to get veggie starts later this spring, and guaranteed we'll be cooking and sharing the bounty together soon. Having Graham attend my seminar was wonderful. Having him tell me after that I'm a very special person was utterly breath-taking.
I ducked in and out of a few other seminars, but I had to make sure I had time to shop, explore the show gardens and sleep too.
Truly, the seminars were my highlight this year, and I can't thank the Northwest Flower & Garden Show staff enough for all they do to put these talks together! Follow them on Twitter here to get year-round updates on what's coming in future shows.
The seminars are a good reminder of how much I can learn from others. It really pays to be the student!

Oh, I too am a Graham Kerr fan, how fun you got to meet him and made a friend : )
Hey Robin: Thanks for including me on this great wrap-up of speeches at the Northwest Flower & Garden Show. I'm honored you found my talk helpful.
Graham Kerr really is still as charming as he was as the Galloping Gourmet on TV. I had the good fortune to meet him last year, and had breakfast with him and his wife. As a member of the Incredible Edibles panel in 2011 with Joe Lamp'l and Willi Galloway, I thought Graham was a hoot and full of valuable culinary information. So glad you had the chance to be his "warm-up" act in 2012.
Look forward to seeing you again in 2013, if not sooner. Teresa
Great summary Robin. I agree that the seminars are an excellent way to be inspired. We had so many fantastic ones this year – the hardest part of the show was getting to them all! Wonderful to see you while I was there! Can't wait for the next one!

When you get in trouble and you don't know right from wrong
Give a little whistle! Give a little whistle! – Jiminy Cricket
Q. We're in the middle of our planning for our every-two-years Christmas vacation at Disney World soon, and I was wondering what the schedule for December is yet? What we want to know about specifically are the dates for special outside-the-parks events, such as the Pop Warner competitions and taping for the televised Christmas parades. Can you help us? Thanks, and love your column! (Submitted by Joyce D.)
A. Hi Joyce!!
Ah!!! It's the most Magical time of the year! Any time at Disney is magical, but there is just something about the Holiday season that truly ups the ante.
Of course, you'll have the traditional and exceptional yearly events. The first is Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, which takes place at the Magic Kingdom on select nights from November 9th – December 21st. Over at Epcot, you have the Candlelight Processional, where different celebrities tell the Christmas Story behind a backdrop of a gorgeous choir. That takes place nightly starting November 23rd – December 30th. At Disney's Hollywood Studios, you have the jaw-dropping Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights that takes place on the Streets of America, which is every night from November 9th – January 6th.
There are also the events that you were asking about. Pop Warner Championship (a kids football tournament that is held at the ESPN Wide World of Sports, but brings in quite a few guests) will take place December 1st – 8th. You also asked about the Christmas Parade taping. This is something that hasn't been announced yet, and it usually isn't announced until a few weeks before the taping actually occurs. If we go by history, the taping will take place on the weekend of November 30th – December 2nd. (Keep in mind, this is just a guess. It is not official from Disney.)
Also, keep in mind that Disney has announced that the New Fantasyland, along with Test Track's reopening after it's refurbishment will be taking place on December 6th.
No matter when you go in December, whether it's the less busy beginning of the month, or the super packed end of the month, one thing is for sure, the magic of Disney and Christmas is certainly not to be missed! Have a magical time!

Review: ZhenFund UK elite school series tour lecture activity
In February 2012, China UK Development Centre together with ZhenFund organised a tour to visit several UK elite universities and delivered talks with the theme of 'entrepreneurship and development'. More than 400 students in the UK attended the lectures. Xu Xiaoping and Wang Qiang, as famous Angel investors, two of co-founders of New Oriental and co-founders of ZhenFund brought multiple marvelous speeches.
Xu Xiaoping shared the concept of founding, operation and investment of ZhenFund with students, and introduced the growth story of some excellent entrepreneurship projects that he participated in. The road to success of some young entrepreneurs was filled with challenge and rough, but their spirit of persisting in dream deeply touched and encouraged the audiences on site.
Lots of students introduced their entrepreneurship projects, and hoped to obtain guidance; students also deeply consulted matters concerning the team construction, domestic situation and financing procedure in the entrepreneurial process.

Here's my new comic. I guess it's an attempt to do something a little different from the previous ones in that it's a fictional narrative as opposed to a personal one, although there are personal elements I guess. My big influences on this one were probably J.G. Ballard's short stories and various weird sci-fi comics, Steve Ditko, EC, Bruce Jones & Alien Worlds etc.
Happy birthday, Charles Bukowski!

Now the weapons engineer as successfully build a new gadget for the defense department. This time engineer comes up with a new shield that you can reduce the speed of the bullet in few minutes.
Engineers at Brigham Young University build an origami shield that can stop a build and the good point in it that you can easily fold that shield and carry with you in crime spot or firing spot.
The Engineer calling it BYU origami shield that scales at around 55 pounds. The specification of a shield is its Ultra-portable, the suitcase-sized device expands with a unique folding mechanism. According to the weapons experts, the BYU can easily reinforce the barrier of 12 layers of kevlar with an aluminum frame rather than steel load.
The shield is capable of shielding almost 2 to 3 officers. However, there are lots of thoughts about the shield from police offers. The young police teams think the shield will be the best option to carry within police car.
Currently, no law enforcement are using this shield for official purpose. The shield will be still been prototyped.

Grace Ineza Umuhoza, a third year student at University of Rwanda, wants to make a difference in society and is already devising initiatives on how to accomplish this.
As soon as she completed high school, Umuhoza launched 'Baby an Angel', a project that is designed to offer home services for babies and provide working opportunities for girls.
The 21-year-old designed it after conducting research on new mothers and found out that 'they do not have adequate home keeping services and that they are also worried at work because they do not trust the people that they leave their kids with'.
"Also, minor research I did in 2016 showed that girls graduating in hospitality and hotel management did not have jobs because they do not know where to turn to. I thought of a sustainable and reliable project that can connect the two parties and create an open platform for the youth and help working parents feel better at work," she says.
She began her project immediately and hired two employees to go about her business. Due to inadequate funds, she halted her project and decided to concentrate more on studies.
In July this year, Umuhoza was lucky to be among the 26 applicants selected from over 2,500 applications received from 45 African countries for the Moremi Initiative Leadership and Empowerment Development (MILEAD) Fellow Programme, a United Nations accredited organisation and one of Africa's famous global women leadership programmes, after she pitched her 'Baby an Angel' project.
The Fellowship is designed to equip young women leaders with additional skills that will enable them provide the bold and inspirational leadership needed to ensure Africa gets and sustains its rightful place in the global community.
"The opportunity was an open platform for me to present my project and get funds," she says.
With potential investors, Umuhoza's project will be back on its feet again and she is set to commence activities in October this year after she put them on hold.
"I hope that this project will contribute to the reduction of unemployment in Rwanda, especially for girls, and solve nanny problems and also, reduce the parents' worry about the wellbeing of their children," she says.
Last year, her project won the 2016 Africa Innovation Prize business idea challenge.
The environmentalist
Umuhoza is currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Water and Environmental Engineering at the University of Rwanda.
"When I finished secondary school, I had the option to go for civil engineering or water and environmental engineering but when I searched the Internet and saw the global wars of climate change, I realised that environmental engineers are the ones able to find solutions and that is how I opted to be an environmental engineer.
"During my course, I realised that in terms of land neutrality, Rwanda can do more, and that was my inspiration. The land environmental engineer is one that can take care of the environment and community because both of them can live in harmony in order to attain sustainable development," she reveals.
Umuhoza attended the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) in China this month.
It is an international declaration linking environment and development to sustainable land management, and it supports the youth in combating desertification around the globe by creating an open platform to share their experience and knowledge and also get some finances for small projects to contribute to the community.
"UNCCD stepped forward in opening a door for the youth around the globe in order to mitigate and adapt to this by also protecting the environment for us and the future generation," she says.
Her project aims at increasing the number of the youth in combating desertification.
"I am working hand-in-hand with the youth who graduated from University of Rwanda to design the project which will have a positive impact on the environment and the agricultural sector. This is the starting point in the process, to have more youth fighting for suitable land management in the region," she says.
She says that she hopes to contribute to problem solving of some of the environmental problems affecting the country, such as bridging the knowledge gap on land sustainability issues and providing adequate data.
"In rural areas, for example, people just know that Rwanda is a beautiful country but they do not know how to keep the land sustainable, and how to practice more in conserving the environment. This is a big challenge because rural people are more vulnerable to global warming but they don't know how to protect themselves from that.
"Also, the data information is wanting in Rwanda. From my small research I realised that we do not have adequate information, like how desertification is affecting Rwanda, how we respond to this, how much are we saving or losing, the soil erosion going on and so forth," she says.

Hi everyone,
Westminster Resources (WMR) has been trading big volume the last few days since they released their "MAJOR SILVER DISCOVERY"
It closed today at $0.315 after hitting a high of $0.365 mid-day.
This presents a HUGE buying opportunity in my opinion.
** The big news we're all waiting for is the results from their Dill program on the Anita Gold & Copper mine.
If we see results anywhere close to what we saw back in February, this company may never see the $0.30 cent range again!
Happy Trading!!

WMR - Huge Opportunity at these levels!!
