If you think you have a productivity problem, you've probably got an overcommitment problem, says Elizabeth Saunders at the Harvard Business Review.
In her experience as a professional time coach for clients with extremely busy schedules, an attempt to squeeze 160 hours into a 40-hour workweek is more typical than someone who is grossly inefficient or "doing things the wrong way."
Just like money, time is a finite resource, says Saunders. If you're spending it on one thing, you're not spending it on something else.
The most essential factor in feeling like a success or failure when it comes to time management is measuring your expectations. If you're being unrealistic, you probably feel stressed, and guilty about not finishing everything just right. Saunders recommends creating a daily time budget:
24 hours = self-care + internal expectations + external expectations
Self-care means the basic essentials: having meals, grooming, and sleeping.
Internal expectations are commitments to yourself, such as exercising, reading, meditating, or working on side projects.
External expectations mean time owed to others, including commuting time, pet care, family time, and other leadership or community commitments.
When it comes to calculating how many hours you're willing to dedicate to each activity, consider the advice that SAP CEO Bill McDermott gave during his Big Think interview: giving your time first to loved ones can inspire you to do great things in your professional life.
"I truly believe the prioritization of family and business cannot be strongly stressed enough by any executive. Because the best executives are the ones that have always put family first. It also makes them much more productive in the office. I get credit at home for being a good executive in the office, but the credit that I'm really interested in is: Am I a good dad? Am I a good husband? And if I can pull that off as well as being a good brother and a good son, I'm much more productive in my work life."

Man of Steel, The Avengers, Tintin 2: December 5th Comic Reel
Michael Shannon chats with The Province (via the Man of Steel Facebook Page) about his career. Though he's quite mum about his role in the film, he does mention that he's been spared a lot of the wirework Terence Stamp — Shannon's predecessor as General Zod — had to face. "Unfortunately for Mr. Stamp, they didn't have CGI back then … From time to time I'm in a harness, but I don't think anywhere near as much as he was. It's no secret that a lot of the film is going to be assisted by computer designed animation." Computer animation on a Zach Snyder picture? Perish the thought.
Directed by Zack Snyder, release date: June 14th 2013
Tom Hiddleston, the chattiest of Marvel actors — tells UK Elle (via Superhero Hype) about his favorite day on "The Avengers" set. "My favorite moment on set was filming at a NASA location the size of a cathedral. I flew around like a trapeze artist in a rocket-testing facility in the company of Samuel L. Jackson and Jeremy Renner. That was a pretty good day at work," says the actor.
Directed by Joss Whedon & starring everybody, release date: May 4th, 2012
Producer Kathleen Kennedy offers Collider an update on the sequel to the first "Tintin" adventure. "Steven [Spielberg] and I were talking about it this morning. We're working on a script right now, we'll see a script probably February or March," she says. "If we can do some camera capture this summer, which I think we could do, then we would be on track to have the movie either Christmas 2014 or summer 2015, and so that's what we're looking at right now."
Release date: TBA
The lads at Comic Book Movie spotted this audition reel from DeObia Oparei, who performs several scenes from the script. I consider it to be a giant spoiler, so proceed with caution.
Release date: September 21st, 2012
Composer Hans Zimmer tells Collider about the crowd-sourced chant he created for the film. "The chant became a very complicated thing because I wanted hundreds of thousands of voices, and it's not so easy to get hundreds of thousands of voices," he explains. "So, we Twittered and we posted on the internet, for people who wanted to be part of it. It seemed like an interesting thing. We've created this world, over these last two movies, and somehow I think the audience and the fans have been part of this world. We do keep them in mind. And I thought it would be something nice, if our audiences could actually be part of the making of the movie and be participants in this." Using the vast resources of the fanbase gave Zimmer an new and unusual sound to work with. "You always want to create a sound that nobody has ever heard, but I think, this time, we might be doing that. As a musician, I think about what environment things are recorded in. Now, you have hundreds of thousands of voices, all recorded in their own individual environment. Up until now, that's been impossible to do."
Release date: July 20th, 2012
Director Andrew Stanton tells Bleeding Cool why his live-action debut lost the words "of Mars" from its title. After changing the name from "A Princess of Mars" for fear of losing the boys, "of Mars" was lost when he accepted the following truth: "No girl would go to see 'John Carter Of Mars.' So I said, 'I don't won't to do anything out of fear, I hate doing things out of fear, but I can't ignore that truth.'" The film business is an often wily place filled with obscure marketing decisions like this one. Meanwhile, if any of you in the great, wide Internet discover something awesome, disheartening, or just plain weird, let us know! Take credit, come up with a clever nickname, or go anonymous. The choice is yours. Fresh rumors and movie news every weekday morning. I am Erik Amaya, bracing for the future threat of "The Hob" and "Linc."

Shahid Afridi's side were dismissed for just 91 in the Twenty20 clash, a warm-up for the three-match series beginning on Boxing Day. Umar Akmal top-scored with 25.
Shoaib Akhtar and Saeed Ajmal took two wickets each in the hosts' reply, but there was little else for Pakistan to draw solace from.
The tourists were put into bat at Colin Maiden Park and lost two wickets in their first over, Matthew Bates removing Mohammad Hafeez and Ahmed Shehzad with the score on four.
Bates also took the wicket of captain Afridi in his next over on his way to figures of four for 11 from three overs, meaning it was left to Younis Khan (18) and Umar to construct any kind of total.
The pair put on 38 for the fourth wicket and Abdul Razzaq (16) and Umar Gul (19) added 31 for the seventh but Pakistan were bowled out with 14 balls of the 20 overs unused.
Auckland openers Colin de Grandhomme and Martin Guptill shared a stand of 28 before the former fell for 20 from just 12 balls. Black Caps batsman Guptill went on to anchor the chase with 28 not out, the highest score of the match, as his side reached their meagre target in 13.2 overs despite a procession of wickets at the other end.
Meanwhile, a 13 year-old has smashed the record for the highest individual score by an Indian schoolboy with a marathon innings of 498. Armaan Jaffer, nephew of former India Test opener Wasim Jaffer, racked up the runs playing for Rizvi Springfield High School in a three-day match. The previous best of 461 was set by 15-year-old Ali Zorain Khan this year.

Realize that anyone who tries to change your mind will try to make you feel guilty, so that you give in. They give you lots of reasons, valid believable reasons, and then blame you for being irresponsible, etc. if you say no. They often work you hard and long to wear you down so they achieve their goal. This article is inspired by Canadian author Mary Kassian over at Girls Gone Wise.
Here's some tools to resist the manipulation mechanism. Be prepared:
- Don't let their comments "stick". Let them run off of you like water off a duck's back.
- Agree. Each time the person gives you another reason or tries to attack you, agree with them. Agree with their comment (in whole or in part), or agree with their right to an opinion. "I can see why you might think that…"
- Rewind/repeat. Rewind the tape, as it were, and repeat your position.
- Keep holding your position, don't give in! If you have decided you have decided.
Kassian demonstrates this by giving an everyday example:
Jane: "Would you like to baby-sit tonight?"
Karen: "No. I am tired and want to spend a quiet evening at home tonight."
Jane: "The kids sure enjoy having you as a babysitter."
Karen: "That's great! But I just want to relax at home tonight."
Jane: "I don't know if I can find another sitter on such short notice."
Karen: "That may be, but I just want to spend a quiet evening at home tonight."
Jane: (getting agitated) "I really need to get out! Don't you care?"
Karen: "I can see that you want to go out tonight and I do care, but I am tired and want to spend a quiet evening at home."
Jane: "Some friend you are!"
Karen: "I can see how you might feel irritated with me, but I just want to spend a quiet evening at home tonight." "Ask me again some other time."
Scientology's skillful manipulation
When it comes to cults and other deceiving and manipulating groups or individuals, sociopaths, etc. you are pushed to the extreme. These cults, especially the Church of Scientology is highly trained and extremely skilled in deceiving its parishioners. Being strong and intelligent is not enough to defend yourself against them. They have the tools to get you and make you give in – whatever it takes.
I was in Scientology for 10 years so I know how devastating their methods are. Part of those years I was in a relationship with a sociopath from the same cult. I was lied to, deceived, manipulated and abused weekly for years. By being coerced to do things that are against your integrity can and will ruin your life, your belief in yourself and your self-respect. I had no clue what I entered into when I started my Scientology journey and what harmful effects it had on my life.
WARNING: The Church of Scientology goes after your kids because they know that kids are easier to manipulate than adults. Ex-Scientologist Lori Hodgson lost both her kids to Scientology and are not allowed to see or talk to them. Please watch her story:
In How to resist manipulation (Part 2), I will share some videos about how critical thinking can make you more resistant to manipulation. And how to practice critical thinking with your kids.
Stay clear. Stay strong. Never give in!

Laird Hamilton's 4 Awesome Foods You Might Not Know About
We here at MBG are big fans of surfer Laird Hamilton and his book, Force of Nature, which has earned a spot on our MBG Bookshelf.
Laird is in incredible shape and his diet plays a huge role. As detailed in Force of Nature, here are four "Awesome Foods You Might Not Know About":
1. Quinoa
Pronounced "KEE-no-ah," it's considered a grain but is a complete protein, so it has all nine essential amino acids.
A sweetened black tea that's been fermented using bacterial culture. If you shop at Whole Foods Market, you've probably seen an entire cooler-full.
3. Hemp milk
It won't get you high (yes, it's the same hemp plant that marijuana comes from), but it's a "superior alternative to milk," according to Laird.
4. Agave Nectar
A natural sweetener with a low glycemic index, so your body doesn't process it like sugar-and its flavor is 75% stronger than sugar's.

Top government officials speaking at a special hearing on Capitol Hill warned that extremists are trying to gain control of chemical, biological and nuclear weapons in Pakistan
The officials also warned of a major cyber-attack, which has become increasingly possible, and that an assault on the power-grid of America could be a major battle ground in the future, the Pittsburgh Post Gazette re[prts.
"(Extremists) remain committed to obtaining all types of weapons of mass destruction," Michael E. Leiter, director of the National Counterterrorism Center, said, according to the Pittsburgh Post Gazette.
Terrorist chieftains in Yemen and near the Arabian Peninsula have a strong intent to obtain the weapons, but the United States has said it remains committed to keeping the weapons out of their hands.
In addition, the meeting highlighted several key areas of the country that could be hit by a potential cyber attack.
"The Internet, the cyber-arena,...this is a vastly growing area of information that can be used and abused in a number of ways," Leon Panetta, the director of the CIA, said, according to the Pittsburgh Post Gazette. "When it comes to national security, I think this represents the battleground for the future. I've often said that I think the potential for the next Pearl Harbor could very well be a cyber-attack. (A cyber-attack) brings down the financial system, brings down our government systems. You could paralyze this country. And I think it's a real potential, and that's the thing we have to really pay attention to."

Here are reviews from Christines clients about her work:
"For many years I've gone through the frustration of trying to find a stylist who would highlight and cut my hair just right. I've gone through many… To my delight, I was so very happy with her work. [Also], my extensions were put in so that no one could tell! Her professionalism , knowledge and great personality are a plus." — Carolyn J.
"I started going to Christine to get my extensions done due to her super affordable prices. You can not find anyone who does as awesome as a job as Christine does for such a great price! I now go to Christine not only for my extensions, but for my hair color and hair cuts as well! She does an excellent job and I've never gotten so many compliments on my hair as I do now. She also sends a reminder when you are due to come in again, which helps a lot! :)" –Katey L.
"Christine offers the best full service options in Santa Monica. She always does a beautiful job on my hair and my children too. She is a perfectionist who takes her craft very seriously. She will make sure your hair is exactly how you envisioned it would turn out. I am always recommending her to friends and hearing back that they are thrilled with their hair!" –Betsey H.

My beautiful children, whom I love, passed me a pretty bad cold on Friday and my voice has been thrashed ever since. I kept hoping it would clear up so I could record, but it's not happening. Tried and failed. So we're in a holding pattern. When I stop sounding like an 85 year old pirate I will record and publish the launch of the Hungarian Revolution...

Irina Shayk And Bradley Cooper Dating Update: Pair Spotted Together In NYC
Supermodel Irina Shayk and actor Bradley Cooper were caught engaging in some serious PDA in New York City on Sunday night, confirming previous rumors that the two may be romantically involved. Speculation that the 40-year-old "Silver Linings Playbook" actor and "Sports Illustrated" cover model were more than friends surfaced last month, when the two were spotted attending Broadway's "Finding Neverland" in April.
An inside source told E! News that the couple had been "hanging out" before the pair was spotted together on May 3. The source claimed the two "have a lot of chemistry with each other," but that they were not considered a serious couple yet. They are "keeping things light" and just "having a great time," the source said.

— JustJared.com (@JustJared) May 7, 2015
The two were seen kissing before attending a showing of "Hamilton" on Broadway. They were laughing, cuddling and appeared to be enjoying each other's company.
This is the perfect timing for the pair, since both are newly single. Shayk called it quits with soccer celebrity Cristiano Ronaldo after five years together in January, and Cooper broke up with 23-year-old model Suki Waterhouse in March after two years together. Cooper has been linked with actresses Jennifer Aniston, Zoe Saldana and ex-wife Jennifer Esposito.
Shayk was born in Russia and has been modeling for more than 10 years. Shortly after her breakup with Ronaldo, she told E! News that the quality she valued most in a partner was loyalty.
"What I'm looking for in a man is—I think I love honest men and I love a man who is loyal to women," she said. "I think this is [the] most important thing in [a] man."

We sat around the table as a family. All five of us agreed that we would seek God for an answer, especially my mom. She wasn't getting up without hearing something. One by one over the next three hours, my brother, dad, daughter and I left. Alone at the dining table, my mother waited for her "sign."
Three months earlier on May 24, 2005, my mom was diagnosed with stage three rectal cancer. The hard, immovable mass was the shape of half a baseball, had tentacles, and had begun spreading to her lymph nodes. The advised treatment by Kaiser was six weeks of chemo and radiation to ideally "shrink" the cancer; then surgery to cut out the remains and perform a colostomy, ultimately rerouting her rectum to an external port at her side with a bag attached to receive the waste.
The "C" word had gripped me with fear; our whole family was in turmoil. Out of desperation, my dad suggested he and my mom go to a place he'd seen healing first hand; at the battered women's shelter where he often volunteered, they prayed for things like a broken leg and back pain and seen people healed right before their eyes. Yet, even with these stories of miraculous healings, my mother's mantra was, "Why would God heal me?" And while she couldn't fathom why God would heal her, in particular, of cancer; she allowed the women of Shepherd's Gate to lay hands on her, and ask God for a miracle.
As they left the property, the Director of the Ministry, Steve, offered my dad prayer as well, adding, "We don't know what's ahead, but I'm sure you're going to need prayer as well." And while my mother felt no different as they got into the car to leave, my dad claims that not more than a few minutes later, suddenly the Gift of Faith (see 1 Corinthians 12:7-11) was dropped into him and, "I just knew she was healed." In the nine months leading up to this moment, my dad had been searching the scriptures, reading, and re-reading all accounts of healing. The Bible has 43 recorded miraculous healings, and my dad knew each one intimately. Apparently, the reading of scripture had prepared the soil of my dad's heart so that when prayer was added to the fertile ground of hope, faith sprouted in abundance!
The same day, my father gathered the family in the kitchen, "I know you are going to be healed; I know Elaine is going to be healed of cancer by Jesus." We all looked at him with doubt in our hearts and concern on our faces. But he insisted, "I have read accounts where Jesus healed over and over again. I think God was preparing me; I know God heals. I can't convince myself that he doesn't. It would be like trying to convince me that the Pacific Ocean was not out there to the west. I know it is; just like I know you are going to be healed Elaine."
While most wives might be encouraged by their husband's declaration of faith; years of mistrust concerning my dad only made my mom uncomfortable and nervous. She didn't trust her husband's motives and she didn't think God would do something so extravagant for her; the best plan of action in her mind was to take the doctor's advice and go for the full medical treatment with all the bells and whistles, even if it did mean never using a toilet the same way again.
Two weeks later, my dad's proclamation about her healing began to take shape…the only problem was, we had no evidence. In the bathroom, just as she was about to flush, she spotted a fleshy clump with root-like fingers floating in the bowl; a similar but smaller specimen had appeared during her last bathroom visit. Yet even with two occurrences of abnormal items in the bowl, it didn't yet register to her that she had seen firsthand "exhibit A and B" of her personal miracle. Out of habit and not thinking, she flushed the toilet.
Sixteen days later on July 11, 2005, my mother started chemo and radiation treatment at Kaiser Hospital in Walnut Creek. After only one week of treatment, her Oncologist called with some peculiar results. "Good evening," Dr. Lui began. "Well, I have looked over your chart and it's a bit strange. The cancerous mass is malleable and has become granulated tissue. When I examined you several months ago, the mass was solid…hard as a rock. Now the tissue is clumpy and gelatinous. It appears to be coming apart." He paused and then added, "I cannot attribute this to your receiving only one week of chemo and radiation treatments (his records would later show he changed his mind). I might even classify it as miraculous." But before we could start celebrating he went back into doctor mode and advised, "However, I think we should still proceed with your medical treatments just to be safe."Being a good patient, my mother did continue her treatments for four and a half more weeks. Even while the evidence was mounting in favor of a miracle, she still needed to be fully convinced in her own mind that God was doing something phenomenal for her. So there we sat…around the dining room table; my mother intently seeking God's will about the situation. After we had all gotten up and left, she remained, determined not to move until He spoke. She wasn't willing to simply adopt my father's faith; she needed something of her own. As she sat quietly, eyes closed, she says at one point this large eye was all she could see in her mind. It filled her head and this tranquil blue eye was fixed on her. Along with the intense onlooker, who she could sense was God, came this verse into her head, with power and life:
"I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will guide you with My eye.
I will guide you with My eye.
Do not be like the horse or like the mule,
Which have no understanding,
Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle,
Else they will not come near you."
Which have no understanding,
Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle,
Else they will not come near you."
Psalm 32:8-9
This was the confirmation she had been longing for; without hesitation she too believed God was healing her and that she no longer needed the chemo and radiation treatments. That very afternoon on August 15, 2005, she called her doctors, "I believe God is healing me of cancer so I won't be showing up for any of my chemo or radiation treatments." While they couldn't stop her, the doctors advised highly against her decision; it was a death sentence in their minds.
On October 21, 2005, during Dr. Lui's third examination since my mother had stopped her treatment, he became flustered and panicked. In an authoritative, but frantic way, he ordered the nurse to get him prepped for a biopsy so he could remove tissue from the original cancer site. During the first examination after my mother stopped her chemo and radiation treatment, he refused to take a biopsy; while the mass of tissue had shrunk to only one tenth of its original size and God's healing was materializing, Dr. Lui was still convinced logic would prevail and the cancer would need to be surgically removed. By the second visit, the tissue abnormality was now the size of an M & M, and Dr. Lui was still on track to do his job regardless; he didn't care that his target was rapidly shrinking before his very eyes. But by this third visit, all hope for "business as usual" was gone…literally! At the original cancer site, the rectal wall, previously engorged by a firm tissue mass of cancerous cells, was now totally pink and smooth, with no signs of abnormality. ALL THE CANCER HAD DISAPPEARED! Grabbing for metal devices, trying to find the right length and tool, Dr. Lui pinched and cut a piece of tissue from the site of origin as my mother winced in pain. "I'm sending this out to the lab immediately," he said. "While it looks like there is no cancer remaining, we need them to test these cells because we can't be sure it's gone." I don't think Dr. Lui was against my mother being miraculously healed, it's just that he'd never seen it happen before; he didn't know what to do with himself. He was a doctor, without a job.
As we waited patiently over the weekend for the test results, there was rising hope that indeed, my mother had been miraculously healed of stage three rectal cancer! I'm sure it sounds odd that we weren't already popping the champagne cork; but when you're in the middle of a miracle, you aren't quite sure what's happening.
Doubts plague your thought life, "Is this what normally happens when someone does only part of their chemo and radiation treatment?"
"Is it a temporary glitch and the cancer will come back with a vengeance?"
"Did we imagine this whole ordeal? What is going on?"
The other difficulty with front row seats to the miraculous is that it's nothing like it would be in a movie; there's no soundtrack playing to a crescendo, lighting and close-ups to signal one intense moment over another and no voice-over to clue you in on what's happening.
However, when the test results came back negative for cancer, when my mom flatly refused surgery altogether, and when each year every exam only confirms the lack of any cancerous cells…over time, this miracle only becomes more real and shines God's glory over our family! I now can confidently testify that God personally stepped into our lives, and did the impossible. We each were beautifully confronted with the Truth that God the Father is good, that Jesus the Christ does heal, and that the Holy Spirit personally brings life altering revelation from the throne of God.
Witnessing a bonafide Biblical sized Miracle pretty much messes up all prospects of remaining an average "churchgoer," a "theological exert" or an aloof Christian with a laundry list of requests for God. I was face to face with my Creator, nowhere to hide; and I was now on the hook to respond in some manner…
What would you do if faced with a miracle? How would it change your life? Who would you tell? How would you celebrate and acknowledge the event?

New scientific method to analyse detergent efficiency published in Tenside Surfactants Detergents journal
Press Release • Sep 13, 2016 06:00 GMT
Biolin Scientific announce today that study results for a new scientific method to evaluate and rank the cleaning ability of new detergent formulations have been published in the journal Tenside Surfactants Detergents (TSD).
A paper entitled 'Revealing Detergent Efficiency and Mechanism by Real-Time Measurement Using a Novel and Tailored QCM-D methodology,' has been published online ahead of print in TSD.
The publication covers a recently completed study using Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation (QCM-D) technology to determine how to scientifically and rapidly screen detergent formulations in real-time. The study was performed by scientists at Biolin Scientific AB in Sweden in collaboration with the Center For Testmaterials in the Netherlands.
The scientists screened nine (9) commercially available dishwashing formulations and ranked them based on their ability to remove/swell standardized cooking grease soiled onto a silica surface. All measurements were performed using the Q-Sense Pro instrument.
The study showed that by combining three QCM-D cleaning parameters - cleaning rate; swelling time; and overall mass removal – a ranking of the screened detergents is easily achieved.
Biolin Scientific's Vice President for Analytical Instruments, Johan Westman, comments,
"Detergent manufacturers worldwide are still struggling with old-fashioned ways to measure how effective their products are. We are delighted that the results from this study have been published in a well-known, peer-reviewed journal. They add to growing evidence that QCM-D is a powerful technology that detergent manufacturers can benefit from, in real-time, to scientifically understand how clean and how fast their detergent formulations work."
For a full disclosure of the results, please refer to the article at:

In England during World War II, there was a popular song that began with the words ''When the lights go on again all over the world.'' It lent hope during the darkest days, and joy when victory came.
On Aug. 12 the lights will go on again all over the United States with the instigation of Neighborhood Watch programs from 8 to 10 p.m. reminding citizens of the need for crime prevention.

It seems that illiberal liberals have discovered a new type of microaggression: gender-equality denial. Kevin Roberts, former chairman of the advertising agency Saatchi & Saatchi, has been forced to take a leave of absence following his comments on gender equality in the workplace.
You could be forgiven for thinking that Roberts had gone on a rant about women having smaller brains and making sandwiches. But, if you forgive his cursing, Roberts' comments were actually quite boring. In an interview with Business Insider, he said shocking things like, 'I don't think [the lack of women in leadership roles] is a problem' and 'the fucking debate is all over'. He defended his own company, (Saatchi & Saatchi has a 50/50 gender quota scheme) and asserted that the reason more women aren't in top jobs is that they want to be happy rather than rich – hardly scandalous.
But even Roberts' nonchalant lack of interest in gender equality is unacceptable, it seems. Feminists barely had time to hit the keyboards before Roberts had been put on leave with the promise that his position at Saatchi & Saatchi would be reviewed – in other words, he was sacked. Not only that, but Publicis Groupe, the parent company of Saatchi & Saatchi, released a statement damning Roberts' comments and warning its employees that 'diversity and inclusion are business imperatives on which Publicis Groupe will not negotiate'. Yes, that's right, Publicis values diversity and inclusion so much that it will not tolerate diversity or inclusion of political opinion in the workplace.
One of Roberts' harshest critics is Cindy Gallop, an advertising consultant and vocal advocate for gender equality in the workplace. 'White guys can't get away with this any more', she tweeted after Roberts' interview was published. 'Sexism and gender inequality is often unconscious and innate in both men and women', Gallop told The Shriver Report, and this is why we need gender quotas in business. But whose opinion of women's oppression should we believe – the male millionaire's or the female millionaire's?
In fact, both Roberts and Gallop have got it wrong. Roberts may be sick of calls for phantom gender inequalities to be addressed – an issue championed by any public figure looking for Brownie points – but his assertion that women don't want top jobs because they 'simply want to be happy and do great work' is a little naive. Many women will understand that taking a top position will involve a great deal of sacrifice. For instance, many women still have to choose between raising kids and holding down a career, a problem that could be easily fixed with better maternity leave, childcare provision and flexible working hours.

Critics describe the Chicago Public Schools special education system as so complex and litigious that parents of children with disabilities must hire a cadre of medical and legal experts to have any hope of getting their child proper educational services. Disputes with the district can drain parents' resources and patience, and leave the physicians who care for their kids exasperated.
"They are systemically preventing kids from getting services," said Peter J. Smith, assistant professor of developmental and behavioral pediatrics at the University of Chicago. "I could give you story after story after story. It's so ridiculously off the reservation that there's just no question that they're not doing what they should do. It's not even close."
Following a series of Tribune stories, Chicago Public Schools officials said Monday they will launch a "major reorganization" of the district's special education program, promising to eradicate systemic problems that many say make it difficult for the city's most vulnerable children to get the educational services they need.

Good luck!
We never finished this debate the last time. I accept again.
I thank Scarlet_Ghost for accepting this debate.
Instead of arguing the constitution, as debate could easily ensue on whether or not we should obey the second amendment, I have chosen three areas, which hugely support my case with large statistical evidence. 1) Guns used in self-defense (DGUs), 2) Guns make us safer, and 3) the ineffectiveness in gun bans. All of these obviously pertain to the gun debate. One clearly shows the gun ban would make it harder to defend yourself, and likely decrease the deterrent gun ownership has.
Guns used in Self-Defense
There is a lot of data backing up the point guns are used in self defense quite often – more then the amount of times they are used in crimes – which would create a net benefit of gun ownership as it would stop many crimes in the act (so they are only "attempted" crimes), and deter the criminal from future actions.
Now, there are 13 commonly cited and accepted surveys amongst the DGU (defensive gun usage) debate, most of which are commonly accepted. They found defensive usage is as common as 800,000 DGU usages or 2 million per year [1]. Studies conducted by Criminologist Gary Kleck yield similar results, he finds, "The best estimates of DGUs (first two columns), even if compared to the more generous estimates of gun crimes, are 4.6 times higher than the crime counts for all guns, and 4.2 times higher for handguns, or 3.9 and 3.4, respectively, if the more conservative B estimates of DGU are used. In sum, DGUs are about three to five times as common as criminal uses, even using generous estimates of gun crimes."[2]
In other words, we see self-defense using guns are 3-4 times more common then gun crime. This is significant as it shows guns have a net benefit in saving peoples lives/saving people from an immediate threat. Using Klecks numbers (2.5 million instances of DGUs a year) that means a gun is used in defense every 13 seconds.
With over 13 surveys and studies concluding DGU's are a common practice, I don't see how a gun ban should be supported. Gun bans would eliminate this effective method of self-defense.
Guns make us safer
There is mounting scientific evidence, also, that gun ownership may decrease violence in the United States. Most of this research looks into right to carry laws. The large amount of research in the field began when John Lott and David Mustard published their famous (or infamous) paper in 1997, it became known as the Lott and Mustard paper (creative scientists…) Lott and mustard acknowledged the fact guns where used in crime bery often, they also noted that Gary Kleck proved DGU's where a very common instance. So their question is do guns cost lives, or save them through deterrence. Their result where startling to say the least, but for many the logic was straightforward and should be expected. The famous words in their study read, "If those states which did not have right-to-carry concealed gun provisions had adopted them in 1992, approximately 1,570 murders; 4,177 rapes; and over 60,000 aggravate assaults would have been avoided yearly."[3] Those words right there caused an implosion of debate amongst scholars. So some scholars (Dungan, Black and Nagin, Donahue etc.) though the results where clearly false. Their studies concluded there was no effect on overall crime, Donahue, however, found an increase of crime using cherry picked data in 2008. Others, (Lott, Mustard, Plassman, Whitley, Moody, Benson, Mast, Tideman etc.) thought the results where also obvious, all of their results came close to copying the data that Lott obtained.
Overwhelming evidence shows the more guns less crime hypothesis prevails, and the gun control one is quite weak. For example, newer studies have confirmed the original Lott 1997 hypothesis. Obviously Lott was the most outspoken on the issue, but many of his colleges have joined his team mainly when he brawls with Donahue (they have a bit of a feud…) For example, some results have looked into police shootings. The police studies conclude, "After controlling for an array of factors, including trends before and after the law went into effect, I show that states that enact concealed carry laws are less likely to have a felonious police death and more likely to have lower rates of felonious police deaths after the law is passed. This result is statistically significant in seven of the nine specifications, and the difference between the before and after trends is significant in over half the specifications."[4]
Further evidence concludes, "In this paper, we use a Poisson-lognormal model to analyze intertemporal and geographical variations in the effects of right-to-carry laws on murders, rapes, and robberies. For each of these crime categories, our estimates suggest the existence of statistically significant deterrent effects of right-to-carry laws for the majority of the 10 states that have adopted such laws between 1977 and 1992."[5]
As we can see, there are large amounts of peer-reviewed data concluding RTC laws reduce crime. And banning guns reduces the overall deterrent effect and hinder the ability for citizens to defend themselves. A gun ban would end the RTC deterrent effect.
Gun bans – ineffective
Gun control has been shown not to decrease crime, but only exists as policy makers see rise in crime as a time to pass gun laws. Little do they know, gun bans either have no effect or have been demonstrated to increase crime. Most studies have been able to demonstrate gun control has either no effect on crime or actually increases the crime rate. The findings of many studies, notably one published in the CATO journal report gun control is "The findings of this study that gun control is ineffective in reducing crime rates are consistent with the vast majority of other studies that use state data."[6]
In other words, their results are fairly the same as the majority of most research.
"As the graph shows, after the passage of Ireland's firearm control laws, the murder rate rose from about 10 a year to 50 a year in the space of just three years."[7]
All these graphs tell the same story. Not only is there a rise in crime, there is an explosion in crime. Most gun bans have eben proven to have little effect on crime rate or increase the crime rate. Every study you look at gets these results.
Guns are....
Gun bans are...

--Lotts data
John Lott is the founder of the more guns less crime debate in the modern era. His 1997 is the most comprehensive study on the issues on conceal carry. He found large decreases in violent crime with the passage of these laws. The study, however, didn't go without controversy. Many objections where raised about his results. He wrote extensive and comprehensive rebuttals to these points and to most scholars working on the issue is an acceptable reference. Every objection raised was either a lie, ad homeneim, false, or failed to depict a full picture. Many of the objections came from scholars, but the objections where purely political in many cases. The empirical questions where quickly dealt with. Both where refuted. And his overall thesis stands as the most authoritative data on the issue [1].
--Other studies
Others have attempted to say Lotts study is unreplicated. This claim is scientific illiteracy. 16 studies replicate his studies, 11 say concesl carry has no effect on crime, 2 show increases [1]| the amount of research is astonishing. Many of the 11 studies show error. When they are fixed they show decreases in crime. The two studies fall into s graphical problem. The graph shows a curve, but they put a straight line. If I make a C lay on its side so it looks like a flipped bowl, we see we can make a trend. It would look like thus /\. We see a correct trend but a spike. The paper focuses on that spike. That ruins the results. The spike is not the actual data. A study attempting to replicate it in 2008 failed to do so, and said it was seriously flawed [1].
Based on this there is conclusive evidence.
--Gun bans
No gun ban has been seen to be effective. Fewer guns mean more crime. In almost every country prohibiting guns, the crime soars as based on the graphs and numerous studies [1].
--Gun ownership
Lott has shown 1% changes in gun ownership can decrease the crime rate [1]. FBI stats show similar results. Gun ownership has been rising, and crime has also gone with it [2].
This is significant evidence.
A. Guns kill!
R. Guns are used in defense far more often therefore saving lives.
A. Conceal carry kills !
R. It has been proven to save lives.
A. Gun bans would serve the publics interest in safety
R. Gun bans are either inneffective or are counter-productive.

TRX suspension training: a 2 pound contraption made of low tech straps. It can replace an entire gym. The resistance is provided by the body weight of the trainee, and can be easily adjusted by simply changing the angle the person pulls at (vector resistance).
TRX almost always uses the important but rarely trained core muscles, the lower back, stomach and oblique muscles. Unlike weight machines, TRX exercises (like push-ups with hand in the straps) also train the small muscles that stabilize joints.
TRX became first popular in the US armed forces. It is hard to carry a fully equipped gym to war in Iraq. A few straps are not only easier to carry around but also a lot cheaper. Picture below left, proof TRX can be used almost anywhere.
Training with the TRX can be incorporated into your fitness programme with DNA PT, planning it around cardiovascular exercise.
Alternatively if you wish to have a session 100% dominated by the TRX it can be arranged.
30 minutes = £20
1 hour = £35
The whole session will be based on the TRX, whether its within your home, a gym or even outside

Where should we start? Because this blog is a little bit about dogs at the racetrack. And there may even be a little gambling mentioned. So where should we start? How about this as a starter? (Or maybe I just wanted to post this just because it's Potamus)
This really is a blog about politics and the puppies. Hence the title! Although, I just saw a highlight of Tom Brady with his hair strangely darkened, and I wish I could write about that. Just sayin'!
I will never forget the time that I went to watch the greyhounds race in Florida. I did not know what to expect. I just kept hearing that I needed to "go watch the puppies run".
When I arrived, I noticed many retired grisly old men with their racing sheets. They had their cigars and drinks and were planning their bets.
I asked a table of men how they knew which dog they were betting. One said that, "I go down to the track to look at the dogs. If I see one of the trainers with a garden hose, filling the dog's mouth with water, I know that is not a dog that is supposed to win that day".
In 2014, 17 greyhound dogs tested positively for cocaine. At least 383 racing dogs have at Florida racetracks since 2013.(Miami Herald)
According to the article, one farmer who told authorities that in 2002, Florida greyhound trainers were paying him $10 a head to "dispose" of aging, slow or gimpy dogs? The old farmer estimated killing between 2,000 and 3,000 greyhounds over the years, shooting them in the head with a .22-caliber rifle and then tossing their remains into a ditch.
You might be disturbed by this because you are a dog lover, but I write about this for an even greater theme.
You might wonder why there is still dog racing in Florida. It's true, there is a large movement to do away with it. But the rationale is that it creates jobs. Yes… JOBS.
I have learned that there are a lot of societal ills that can be explained, if they create jobs. Pipelines through oceans and forests create jobs. Natural gas drilling creates jobs. Removal of regulations on businesses creates jobs.
At some point, legislators need to look at the big picture. Cleaning up an oil spill does create jobs, but is that really something that should cause pride?
And that's my brief foray into politics.
And finally… My friend, Mike Thomas, posted this on Facebook and I had to put it in the blog!

Walk in the footsteps of pilgrims
Reached by a stone causeway, used by pilgrims in the Middle Ages, this iconic rocky island just off Cornwall is crowned by a medieval church and castle. Standing strong and serene through the ages, the chapel at the Mount's summit dates back to the 12th century. 500 year old alabaster carvings of biblical scenes and a 15th century granite Lantern Cross now shelter in the safety of the priory walls.St Michael, St Michaels Mount
Origins of a Holy Island
This delightful, unspoiled, historic island lies just off the extreme Northeast corner of England near Berwick upon Tweed, Northumberland. The paved causeway is covered by the North Sea twice a day. The church is reputed to stand on the site of the original monastery founded by Aidan, and parts of the structure date back to the 7th century, several hundred years before the appearance of the Priory.St Mary the Virgin, Holy Island
Cut off from the world
Cross a dramatic causeway to reach the island of Lindisfarne, on a journey that will stay in your memory forever. Lindisfarne is a tidal island cut off from the mainland twice a day by the rising seas. It is this peaceful isolation that originally appealed to the monks, and still attracts over a million visitors every year.Lindisfarne Priory, Holy Island
A Roman holiday
History is all around this ancient parish church, with a Roman villa, Benedictine Priory and a watch tower all close by. Mersea Island lies off Essex, and is connected to the mainland by the Strood, a causeway that floods at high tide. It was a holiday destination in Roman Britain for occupants of Camulodunum (Colchester) and is still visited by many people today.St Peter & St Paul, Mersea Island
A tale of two bridges
Church Island is situated in the Menai Strait and is reached by crossing a small causeway from Belgian Promenade. It is something of an enigma as there is no clear evidence as to its origins. The Welsh name for the island is Ynys Tysilio, meaning the Island of Tysilio. Tysilio was a 6th century Welsh saint and it is widely believed that he established a church on the island, but no evidence has been found.St Tysilio, Menai Bridge
The church in the sea
The most recognizable church on Anglesey, St Cwyfan's, is popularly known as the Church in the Sea (or eglwys bach y mor in Welsh). Perched on a tiny island called Cribinau and encircled by a sea wall, this simple medieval church dates to the 12th century. It is thought to be dedicated to the Irish St Kevin, who founded the monastery across the sea at Glendalough, Ireland.St Cwyfan, Llangwyfan
Welsh island of love
Dig your bare toes into the soft sand beyond the Llanddwyn Beach car park and glance to your right. There, in the near distance, is the Welsh Island of Love. Llanddwyn Island, just off Anglesey, is named after St Dwynwen, who retreated to the island in the early 5th century after an unhappy love affair. She became known as the patron saint of lovers and pilgrimages were made to her holy well on the island.St Dwynwen, Llanddwyn Island
Pictish, Norse and medieval
Reach this very special tidal island by causeway to explore Pictish, Norse and medieval remains. Brooches, rings and dress pins found on the Brough of Birsay, Orkney, suggest that it was a Pictish power centre. The best place to start an exploration of the site is in the remains of the church, which dates from about 1100 and was dedicated to St Peter.St Peter, Brough of Birsay
A wonderfully preserved priory
It is believed that Oronsay, in the Inner Hebrides, has its name from St Oran, the founder of the original Oronsay Priory in 563, but it could also come from the Old Norse 'island of the ebb tide'. The walk to Oronsay Priory from the south end of the The Strand is beautiful and offers stunning views towards the Isles of Jura and Islay as well as to the low lying skerries to the southwest.Oronsay Priory, Oronsay
Onward Christian soldiers
From seawards, the gaunt square tower of St Edmunds stands stark above the East Mersea skyline, a dominant and trusty seafarers' landmark. The best way to visit this lovely Essex church is to cycle from the Strood causeway with each rise bringing a little more of the tower into view.St Edmund King & Martyr, Mersea Island

One of the things I've learnt about the Mortgage Industry is that it never stops changing. New products, rates, credit policies etc means that I always need to be learning in my role to keep up. You can never 'know it all'.
Customers ask me all types of questions and it's no surprise that the same ones come up time and again. Here is three that I hear all the time.
They might sound basic, but get them right and you're on your way to making smart decisions about your money and keeping more of it in your pocket.
Well, sometimes – but not always. You see, lenders love to grab your attention with a low 'headline rate', but you need check the * next to the rate. In Australia, you can't advertise an interest rate without the comparison rate mentioned as well (that's the asterix bit). The comparison is the actual interest rate plus any fees and charges associated with the loan.
The comparison rate will tell you if the loan with the cheapest interest rate, is in fact, more expensive, when you add in the fees and charges. This enables you to then compare that loan with others that may have higher interest rates but no charges or ongoing fees – to see which is the cheapest overall.
I'd love the ability to be able to predict what is going to happen with interest rates. But to be completely honest, there are so many factors at play in the market today it is way to difficult to try and guess what is going to be happening 2, 3 or 5 years from now.
If either a fixed or variable rate would suit your situation ask yourself the following:
"How would you feel if you had a fixed rate loan and interest rates went down (meaning your loan wouldn't change)" ? versus
"How would you feel if you had a variable rate loan and interest rates went up (your loan rate would increase)"?
You should then choose the option that makes you the least uncomfortable.
Principal & Interest loan repayments = paying the interest on the money borrowed plus a small amount of 'principal' at each repayment. These loans have a balance that is reducing over time as you 'pay them off".
An interest only loan repayment = each repayment that only pays the interest due on the money borrowed. The loan balance does not reduce and the loan is not actually being paid down. These loans attract a lower repayment amount than principal and interest.
Before you make a decision about which is right for your loan, you must consider: 1)what the loan is for 2)how long you intend to remain in the loan; and 3) what your end goal is for property
There is great information about interest only loans at MoneySmart a financial guidance site that is impartial and put together by the Australian Government.
